CHAPTER XIV
Concubine Qi was busy tidying up her body and clothes, compared to the slaughter on Shao Huayang's face, she was even more flustered, the emperor was old and weak, and he was obsessed with pills, and rarely lingered in the harem. She was just looking for thrills, but she didn't think to use her head to find it. She was already dissatisfied with the emperor's inability to do so, and a younger one appeared, so she naturally half-pushed and half-obeyed, and the sneaky stimulation made the two thrill-seekers happy.
But at this moment, she couldn't help but be angry at her carelessness, and she wanted to break the corpse of this forest man into thousands of pieces, and almost gritted her teeth.
Shao Huayang's clothes on the side are very complete, almost as long as he puts the clothes on the side, he is no different from usual, and he is still well-dressed. He quickly walked out of the rockery, and after only a few glances, he set his eyes on the bamboo forest, and the pace was getting closer and closer.
Shao Anlin was still the elegant appearance of the washed lead, his sparse gaze swept to the tense Fu Chen, and turned the direction down, so that Fu Chen could see the fluffy white ball on his shoulder.
When entering the bamboo forest, Fu Chen restrained himself from focusing on Shao Anlin for a long time, so as not to incur the crime of "great disrespect" for himself, naturally he didn't find this quiet little guy, it was also it that made a noise just now, Concubine De's favorite cat: Tangyuan.
Fu Chen signaled that he understood, and the questioning eyes seemed to say: What to do next. Shao Anlin was stunned, without saying a word, he didn't expect Fu Chen to immediately understand what he meant, a flash of appreciation flashed in his eyes, the two were clearly strangers, but this tacit understanding was pleasant.
Of course, he didn't know that Fu Chen had made some achievements in psychology, and he naturally had a hand in figuring out people's hearts.
Shao Anlin held the rice balls in his hands, and the pair of snow and frosty fingers touched the supple hair and put it on the ground.
The eyes of the second prince, Shao Huayang, were tightly locked on the square inch near the bamboo forest.
In the green bamboo forest, the rustling sound became more and more intense, and suddenly a white-haired ball came out of it, and "meowed".
Concubine Qi exhaled, and at this time she was dressed up and regained her radiant appearance. She walked out, and a pair of jade hands drew an elegant arc to hug the hair ball into her arms, but unexpectedly, the little guy with a round head and a round brain quickly dodged and avoided Concubine Qi. It is said that all things have spirituality, and people who are too turbid make them retreat.
Qi Guifei smiled strongly, and then turned to Shao Huayang, who still didn't relax in the slightest, "I think you're too grassy and woody, but you're just a beast." This little beast is very naughty, and it is always easy for Sister Concubine De to find. β
Shao Huayang didn't say a word, his expression was cold, the cold aura was like a sharp blade, and the arc of the sneer could make people feel like they were three feet frozen, "Come out, I know someone is there, or do you want to wait for me to come in and look for it?"
It's a good idea to use a cat as a shield, and as soon as your mind is confused, you can get rid of it. It's a pity that this Ming Shenyuan is too far away from Concubine De's Fuxi Palace, and this cat is so long that it has three heads and six arms, and it is impossible for him to run so far by himself.
Fu Chen's expression froze slightly, even if he was a stubborn and self-righteous second prince who seemed to be impulsive on the outside, he was not so easy to fool. He was now faced with two choices, waiting for Shao Huayang to come in and see the two of them, or he would take all the blame alone. The three princes went out to do all kinds of harm but no benefit, involving a lot, and the most important thing is that if he chooses the former, he may face the oppression of the two princes at the same time afterwards. The lesser of the two powers, Fu Chen took a firm step forward, but he was suddenly pulled, and the cyan figure walked out before him, he looked at Shao Anlin's back in amazement, he didn't believe that this man didn't know the severity of this matter, and actually walked out like this.
Fu Chen suddenly thought that the prestige of these three princes among the people, often helping the poor, eliminating harm for the people, personally going to the ground to have fun with the people, etc., at this moment, even Fu Chen had to be a little moved, he was a powerless little eunuch, Shao Anlin could do it to the point of harming himself and benefiting others, so it was no wonder that everyone praised him. Regardless of whether there is another purpose behind it, this life is impressive.
When he saw Shao Anlin's figure slowly walking out of the bamboo forest, even Shao Huayang was a little stunned, his face changed several times, and finally turned into a casual smile, "What a coincidence, third child, are you out for a walk?"
Sure enough, I saw the soup ball running over with a smoke, rubbing Shao Anlin's leg.
Shao Anlin also replied naturally: "If you have nothing to do, just look at the lotus flowers in Yeting Lake." Second brother, Qi Guifei, you are also staying for Jing and coming for a walk?"
This remark represents two meanings: first, he told Shao Huayang that he happened to arrive at this place, not deliberately, and second, Shao Huayang and Qi Guifei's reluctance to do this, he would treat it as if he didn't see it, and he was also appeasing Shao Huayang.
After the two exchanged a few more words, Shao Huayang threw out the key point.
"Third brother, last time I handed over the name to your house, I happened to meet you going out, and it will be the Dragon Boat Festival in a few days, I don't know if I can spare time for the second brother?"
The competition for the throne became increasingly fierce, and Emperor Jin Cheng learned the lessons of his succession, and was reluctant to set up a crown prince in middle age. Now that the eldest prince is nearly forty, seeing that more and more princes are about to become adults, these older princes are also starting to get anxious. As a centrist and a popular candidate for the next national teacher, Shao Anlin, who has always been partial to any prince, is a person who is tried to win over all parties, and he never accepts any prince's mansion.
If Shao Anlin accepts the invitation of any prince, he will release the news of his standing in line in disguise, and he can no longer stay out of the matter.
"A few days ago, I went to Wufu Mountain to pray for blessings, and now I will come back to the second brother's house to ask for a cup of tea, and please don't dislike it. β
Shao Anlin's words obviously made Shao Huayang very happy, "Then the second brother will be waiting for you then!"
The two brothers, brothers, brothers, brothers, and brothers, said goodbye happily, Shao Huayang turned to leave, and murderous aura appeared in those eyes.
After the noble concubine Qi saluted Shao Anlin, she left in a hurry, and the courtyard was calm again, and after a while, Shao Anlin said in the direction of the bamboo forest: "Come out." β
Fu Chen walked out and came to the third prince.
As soon as he stood still, suddenly, the other party's long fingers stretched out towards Fu Chen, getting closer and closer, Fu Chen seemed to be able to hear his own breathing.
Fingers grabbed the bamboo leaves on Fu Chen's hair and threw them into the air, although there was no physical contact, it made people's hearts beat like a drum.
Fu Chen knelt down and bowed, "Your Highness Xie San." β
This thank you is sincere, it is a fact that he saved his life, and it is also a fact that he can bear all the attacks and retaliation of Shao Huayang, as long as he goes out just now, it will be a dead end.
ββJin.Jiang.Du.Family.Fa.Tableββ
"Thank me for what?" Shao Anlin smiled slightly, looking thoughtfully at the respectful Fu Chen.
"The grace of saving lives, the slave can't repay it. Fu Chen's head slammed on the ground and replied.
"Hehe, I'm going to walk into this game. Shao Anlin said something meaningful, and suddenly thought of something, and came to a stroke, "A few days ago, you went to work for your mother's concubine?"
"Yes, the slave had the honor of applying Kodan to the mother once. β
"When I saw you out of Fuxi Palace, I vomited, but I was dissatisfied?"
Fu Chen lowered his head, Shao Anlin's words were a little heartfelt, "The slave has an upset stomach." β
He didn't expect that the scene at that time would actually be seen.
What I didn't expect was that with the otherworldly temperament of the third prince, he would ask directly like this.
"Get up and talk. Shao Anlin seems to accept this explanation.
Fu Chen stood up, but was grabbed by the other party's chin with both hands, and was forced to raise his head and look at each other.
Such a posture is very humiliating, and the age gap makes Fu Chen feel a little oppressive, but his face is always respectful and obedient, and anyone who sees it must say a word, what a gentle minion.
Shao Anlin seemed to be looking at it, and said slowly: "Do you know that whenever you say the word slave, there is never a moment in your eyes that you regard yourself as a slave. β
was shaken by the darkness in the eyes of the third prince, and his whole body was cold, only to feel that his body was also frozen, and he couldn't answer for the first time.
He can grovel, he can shout at his servants, and he can even kneel down and beg for mercy, but what he can't lower is the little dignity he has left.
But no one has ever found out about this, he doesn't know where the three princes have decided this, they have only met three times, and the first time Shao Anlin didn't even notice him at all.
"Minions, no, understood. Fu Chen forced himself to be calm, Shao Anlin's words are just idle chatter in modern times, and they are a head-scratching evaluation in this era of imperial supremacy. Regardless of the strength on his chin, he knelt down and kowtowed, "The slave deserves death!"
Under this person's gaze, there seems to be nothing to hide, and this feeling is as if he is naked.
This man's impassivity, as well as the perceptive eyes, made Fu Chen more and more humble and submissive.
Shao Anlin didn't shout, looked at Fu Chen to plead guilty, and then said, "Remember that you owe me a life, now come with me." β
"The minions obeyed. Fu Chen's forehead was a little red and swollen, this time there was no bleeding, but Fu Chen did not relax in the slightest.
Along the way, Shao Anlin didn't speak, Fu Chen was a few steps behind and didn't talk casually. The master didn't tell him, and as a slave, he couldn't be disturbed casually, let alone asked where he was going.
The cat named Tangyuan was held in his arms, gently brushing the fur, Tangyuan's fur was very soft, and at a glance he knew that it had been carefully maintained, and it gently rubbed Fu Chen's chest, so that Fu Chen's feelings were slightly relieved.
The two of them went to Lugu Courtyard, where people with special talents lived, these people did not belong to the Ministry of Industry, and they were dedicated to serving the emperor personally. This includes the design of the palace building, the planting of the royal garden, and some projects that provide special services for the emperor, such as the construction of open-air hot springs and other places, this Lugu Courtyard is not far from Yeting Lake, so Shao Anlin's original purpose was to come here?
When they reached the door, two eunuchs came out carrying a stretcher, and on the stretcher was a covered man.
Fu Chen went up and asked only to know that it was an old eunuch who was dying, and after asking the name, he returned to Shao Anlin, and the other party frowned slightly, "At this hour, the wait is really accurate." β
Fu Chen didn't understand the meaning of this, but he could hear that Shao Anlin wanted to come here to find someone, but this person was probably gone.
After walking for a while, Shao Anlin turned his head and his gaze slowly fell on Fu Chen. Shao Anlin is like a landscape painting that has come out, and his casual movements are full of freehand elegance, and the breath that does not disturb the mortal dust complements his appearance and demeanor.
But after today's experience, Fu Chen only felt creepy, but Shao Anlin suddenly smiled faintly, and the color of the city fell into the city.
