Fu Chen opened his mouth, but he didn't seem to be able to organize words, and looked at Shao Huachi, who couldn't find a little wetness on his face, and after some catharsis just now, he had already unloaded the collapse of bereavement. But Fu Chen seemed to be able to see that there was a little warmth in his eyes. Fu Chen has seen all kinds of people, almost all the people he has seen, he can instinctively memorize the memory points, which is a habit brought about by occupational diseases. As for beauty and ugliness, in his eyes, it is just a symbol, and it has no meaning. This is the first time in so many years that he has been in the palace to carefully observe a person's appearance, to be precise: eyes.

At first, it was judged that Shao Huachi was stupid, it was those godless eyes that had no focus and no focus, and those eyes made Fu Chen unable to even see a trace of camouflage, but now those things that he was sure of had completely disappeared. Shao Huachi's eyes are inner double, and when they are fully opened, they become single eyelids, and the extended eyetails are slightly raised, and the cold gaze is blurred and seductive, and the hazy is dotted with tenderness, and the hope is drunk, and the heart is rippling. But in the eye to eye, the pure black eyes swept away like a sharp blade, which can make people feel the proud and self-respecting momentum, which carries a thrilling momentum like a bamboo, and is dazzlingly beautiful.

But this, too, shows that this person is not stupid, the stupid person is him, wishful thinking to take care of, wishful thinking to determine the judgment in his heart, he is too confident in himself.

Seeing Shao Huachi's gaze, Fu Chen only felt that his heart, which was originally soft and warm, was instantly frozen, and he pushed the person away numbly with both hands, knelt heavily on the ground, and made a sound.

"Slaves do not distinguish between dignity and inferiority, blaspheme His Highness, please condemn His Highness. Fu Chen's voice once again returned to its usual appearance, polite and humble.

Thinking of what he had done before, and the contact with Shao Huachi again and again, the other party's flawless demeanor, expression, and body language, Fu Chen felt cold all over his body, the Seventh Highness he saw when he met for the first time, had never changed, it was he who mistook the wolf for a husky.

Shao Huachi's gaze gradually dimmed, the softness on his face collapsed, and he barely held up a smile.

The sound of grinding clothes, a pair of feet appeared in Fu Chen's sight, and the Seventh Prince got off the couch.

He came to Fu Chen, as soon as his hand was raised, the fabric slipped down to reveal a small section of his white arm, but that hand exuded a strong force, and he pulled Fu Chen up, and the momentum that came out of the expression was irresistible, "I know, you are blaming me for lying to you." But Fu Chen, in this environment, it is understandable for me to do this. ”

"The minions don't dare. Fu Chen was pulled to his feet, but his usual tone was restored, gentle and humble.

"I remember you liked to use 'I' in front of me, and you can continue to use it now. Shao Huachi's attitude was completely different from the solipsism he had in Yeting Lake before, because of his own fault, Shao Huachi's voice unconsciously softened, and he was about to grab Fu Chen's arm, but he was dodged, Shao Huachi's hand froze in mid-air, and embarrassment was pervasive.

"Slaves are bold and deserve death. Fu Chen didn't seem to feel the stagnant air, and repeated the words in his mouth.

"Fu Chen...... You can be gentle and considerate to a fool who has no use value, why can't a real prince be treated with you sincerely?Isn't it ridiculous for you to behave like this again when I already know what you look like in private?" Shao Huachi looked at Fu Chen's unmoving appearance, a little angry.

"Yes, minions are ridiculous. He himself felt that after living for so many years, he was actually played around by a teenage child, "The slave believes that anyone who has been deceived will not believe it lightly." ”

Shao Huachi was choked, knowing that he was wrong, but he was not a person who blindly backed down, "There are many people who are close to me, and I have no reason to trust someone who seems to be good to me." ”

Fu Chen naturally understands that if he hadn't treated him sincerely, Shao Huachi would not have been able to tell him honestly about his biggest secret, but it was precisely because of his sincerity that he couldn't be without mustard, this prince's scheming, it is difficult for anyone to compare, if he can live, he may really be able to do a great career.

Fu Chen smiled self-deprecatingly, raised his head and looked directly at Shao Huachi, "The slave wants to ask His Highness two questions, and I hope His Highness will tell the truth." ”

Shao Huachi's eyes lit up, "Okay, you ask." ”

"Your Highness, have you never been stupid from the beginning? ”

Shao Huachi was silent for a long time before he squeezed out one word, "Yes." ”

"Why?"

"Live. There was almost no hesitation, the most authentic answer, and he didn't want to deceive Fu Chen.

"After the minion question is asked, the minion retires first. Fu Chen turned around and walked towards the door very rudely, and suddenly understood the little eunuch before, and he didn't want to stay in Chonghua Palace any longer. Facing this young Seventh Prince, Fu Chen felt that he had seen the professor of criminal psychology, the real and the virtual switch naturally, life was like a play, as long as they themselves did not want to expose their flaws, no one could find out. This is also the reason why people in psychology majors can't consult their peers, they hide and cover each other perfectly, they can understand the thoughts of others, and they can dig into the deepest level of humanity, which means that they can become blind spots for each other.

Shao Huachi can be so ruthless, just because he is so talented, some people are naturally good at intrigue and trickery.

No one likes someone with such a deep scheming that you can't even tell if he is real or pretended to be in front of you.

Shao Huachi saw that Fu Chen was about to leave, and viciously grabbed the other party's arm, and before Fu Chen could react, he threw him against the wall.

Bang, Fu Chen's back bumped into him, and he snorted in pain, and was approached by Shao Huachi like a poisonous snake, "Do you want to go, do you know what will happen to those who know the secret, two choices, one, help me, two, die." ”

Shao Huachi's hand touched the tender skin on Fu Chen's neck, causing goosebumps. He grabbed Fu Chen's neck, the force tightened more and more, Fu Chen's face slowly turned red, and he approached Fu Chen's face, the heat hit Fu Chen's face, and half of the ghost face was almost zero distance from Fu Chen, making people break out in a layer of cold sweat from the soles of their feet,

Lack of oxygen Yan zhòng, Fu Chen had difficulty breathing, his eyes bulged, and he was so difficult that he squeezed out a few words from his throat, "The slave can't help you." ”

"Why?" Shao Huachi's eyes burst out with a dazzling light, "This is the second time you've rejected me!"

"The status of the slave is low, how can I help?" Fu Chen knew that the first time was in Yeting Lake, and he was telling the truth, others were soft-spoken, and his life was hanging in the face of this harem.

"Fu Chen, what I want is just a sincerity, and I don't need you to do anything. Although his tone was soft, Shao Huachi's movements were not gentle at all.

Fu Chen's ears were buzzing, bursts of tinnitus hit, and in the face of those mournful eyes, Fu Chen stopped being polite for the first time, and told the biggest truth, no longer using sleek modifiers, "Your Highness the Seventh, I can't help you." ”

In those eyes, there was a trace of despair and sorrow for his fate after Fu Chen's refusal, and that kind of resigned look made Fu Chen think of himself who had no nostalgia for life.

Fu Chen stopped all his struggles, and for a person who was desperate for himself, what reason did he have to hurt him with words again.

Shao Huachi was ruthless, even harder, as if he was suing the person in front of him, no different from others.

Just when Fu Chen was about to go into shock, he suddenly became stunned, and Fu Chen fed him again and again in his mind, gently coaxing him to sleep, and the warm yellow light shone on this person's face, so warm that it made people cry, Shao Huachi suddenly let go of his hand.

Fu Chen slipped on the wall and fell to the ground, coughing for a long time before his tinnitus stopped.

"Why!" he just wanted to know, why was he willing to help him when he knew that he was an outcast, and now he sued him that he was sane, but his attitude changed drastically, at least before he confessed, Shao Huachi also did a lot of psychological construction, and he hesitated, he thought that this person was different.

"Do you need me to say this, Your Highness should know better than anyone else. Fu Chen felt that his throat was hot, his eyes were black, and he reluctantly replied.

Maybe it's because he can't bear to deceive this person with those high-sounding reasons.

"But I want to hear your reasons. ”

"Do you really want to know?" Fu Chen raised his head, his attitude was very different from usual, but Shao Huachi didn't want to distinguish at this moment, got up and poured a glass of water to Fu Chen personally, Fu Chen sighed, he didn't expect to be served by the prince one day, but his throat was too uncomfortable and he didn't refuse, he took a few sips to soothe it, his eyes were sparse, "Please forgive the slave's capital crime first." ”

Although the Jin Dynasty only stipulated that the personnel of the inner court were not allowed to interfere in politics and discuss politics, in private, who would not say a few words.

"I will not tell anyone about all the conversations I have with you today. Shao Huachi made a guarantee, he had a hunch, Fu Chen's next words were the point.

Although Shao Huachi is a very deep city, he has a great advantage, and he can generally do what he says.

Fu Chen thought that today's words were about the most impulsive since he entered the palace, just because, he couldn't bear it, even if he knew that this unbearable heart was definitely not the wisest choice, but Fu Chen still did that, people sometimes have to do something for themselves and others.

There are many ways to save his life, why should Shao Huachi take the most dangerous one.

Of course, Fu Chen didn't ask why he had to take the throne, he didn't seek his own politics if he wasn't in his position, he put himself in his shoes, if he was the prince, he would have the same choice as Shao Huachi, this is the ambition that every man has.

Fu Chen lowered his butterfly-like eyelashes, and said straightforwardly, "There are a full ten princes who have the ability to compete for that position, and they are roughly divided into three groups, the first group is headed by the eldest prince, and has now been crowned a county prince. Although the eldest prince Shao Mujian is not outstanding in his own ability, he is not successful in martial arts, but he is ambitious and has a lot of plans, but he has not achieved much so far. His advantage is a hotbed of ambition, his grandfather is Guo Yongxu, an important minister of the two dynasties, even now the saint also respects him quite a lot, and Guo Yongxu himself is a cabinet scholar, a minister of parliament, and a well-known royalist, I think His Royal Highness should also know Guo Yongxu's nickname: Old Fox. Even if the eldest prince will be confused, Guo Yongxu will not be confused. "Guo Yongxu, the second word of Guo Yan, a cabinet scholar during the Jin Taizong period, alias Guo Er, won the trust of the emperor.

Shao Huachi expected that Fu Chen would not know anything, but as Fu Chen's words became more and more deeply analyzed, his expression became more and more solemn, what Fu Chen said could be heard, but there were not many people who could really refine so much useless information and analyze it again. What's more, as a little eunuch who has almost no contact with the outside world in the inner courtyard of the deep palace, he can know so much, but this kind of carefulness and observation is only seen in his life.

Shao Huachi guessed that eight or nine was not far from ten, Fu Chen really couldn't match the news he got with his face, the only time he saw a courtier was that time to shave the emperor, in fact, he could only guess, and he couldn't guess everything.

"Go on!" Shao Huachi really began to pay attention to what Fu Chen said, the reason why he wanted Fu Chen to help him at the beginning was just because there were too few available people around him, and this little eunuch's calm and self-protective behavior when they met for the first and second time made him feel that this was a manufacturable material. Of course, what made him really determined to confess was that in the subsequent time and time again, this person was the only one who treated him sincerely and touched him.

It can be said that at the beginning, Shao Huachi just wanted a spiritual pillar, but he didn't expect that he accidentally picked up a treasure, and this treasure is still unpolished, and even the ambition shown is not like what a eunuch should have.

"The second group is headed by the second prince Shao Huayang, who is now the king of the county. I think you are no stranger, his mother is the empress, the current heir with the highest demand in the imperial court, and the most likely crown prince. Although he is lustful, lustful, irritable, and overjoyed, he has many advisers and staff members in his house, and his think tank cannot be underestimated. The wife clan is a relative of the two dynasties and has a high reputation. And the court's courtiers who favor the second prince are also the most, the eighth prince and the twelfth prince are already the two princes' party, the eighth prince's mother family is strong, and he is arrogant and domineering but has been connived at by the emperor, and his fellow brother the twelve princes are quite affectionate people, the alliance of these three people is very strong, and ordinary people can't break this iron triangle relationship. Therefore, the second prince has courtiers outside, and the queen, wife, and two princes who are not light on the inside, and the emperor's favor is understandable. The three princes that Fu Chen said were the three who pushed Shao Huachi down the lake without any scruples in Yeting Lake that day, so when Fu Chen said about them, Shao Huachi's face turned pale.

"The fourth prince Shao Huanian suffers from eye disease, similar to your situation, and has no chance of the throne" The four princes are the same as Shao Huachi, those with disabilities cannot inherit the throne, this is the ancestral system from ancient times to the present, although Shao Huachi is only disfigured by toxins, but in the eyes of others, this is also a disability, "The fifth prince Shao Junyu's mother was born relatively low, and she is the eldest prince's party. The sixth prince, Shao Jintan, is the most special of all the princes, and he also has the most abundant assets, and he has made great contributions to the imbalance of the treasury every year, and he is also the second prince's party. ”

"The last group is headed by the Nine Emperor Sons, who can read a thousand words at the age of three, memorize poems at the age of five, and read the Four Books and Five Classics at the age of seven. He was good at strategy, had great prestige among the literati, and had a very good relationship with the sixth, eleventh, and fourteenth princes. ”

Shao Huachi fell into a long contemplation after Fu Chen's words, but he didn't expect Fu Chen to finish speaking.

"Outside of these three factions independently, the three princes Shao Anlin have their own faction. He does not participate in the struggle for the throne, has a close relationship with all the princes, and is a neutral. There is a great hope to take over as the next national teacher, but his prestige among the people is the most among many princes, and every time the task given to him by the saint can be successfully completed, the slave feels that he may be the most satisfying among the princes. The extended meaning of Fu Chen's words made Shao Huachi suddenly think that almost everyone would focus on the most competitive group of the three factions, and no one would put it on Shao Anlin. They all regard Shao Anlin as the next national teacher, Shao Anlin grew up in the folk since he was a child, and he is frail and sickly, so everyone is inclined to win over this person, but they ignore that this person has the same opportunity, perhaps, this is also a means of Shao Anlin!?

Shao Huachi suddenly stared at Fu Chen, this person's strategy and observation are truly priceless!

"Fu Chen, I underestimated you. After a long time, Shao Huachi said slowly.

"Your Highness the Seventh, you are just a fan of the authorities. ”

"I just wanted you to ...... , but now, you must choose me!" It is impossible for him to give such a person to other princes for nothing.

"Your Highness, the minion has said so much, I just want to tell you that there are so many options, and any one of them is more hopeful than you. Fu Chen's cold tone was unmoved, this was the expression he showed the most in his previous life, "Your face has been invaded by toxins, and you have lost the greatest possibility of inheritance. You haven't even been assigned to marry, you have no wife to help you, you have no mother to rely on, you have no emperor's favor, you have a stupid history, which will inevitably be recorded in the history books, so why do you think that you, the most hopeless, will be worthy of being a slave to choose you?"

yes, why are you?

Just because when you are most in pain, the other party is a little gentle, and you think that the other party will help you?

Shao Huachi suddenly laughed hysterically, his eyes flashed with tears, and he couldn't understand anymore.

He looked at Fu Chen's gaze, flushed, like a drop of blood, "You're right, I'm too naïve." ”

"You're not naïve. "Just misestimated me.

And the sincerity you want is too extravagant in this palace, I can't afford it.

Fu Chen's complete refusal pushed the atmosphere of the two to a freezing point.

"Your Highness the Seventh, are you there?"

The palace door was pushed open, and a voice that made Fu Chen somewhat familiar appeared outside the hall.

Without Shao Huachi's instructions, Fu Chen automatically silenced himself, and hid under the bed again, thinking about it in his mind, who is the owner of this voice, he has heard it recently, and this kind of timbre that only father-in-law has...... It's An Zhonghai!

Fu Chen didn't expect that this father-in-law, who was beside Emperor Jin Cheng, would appear here, and they actually knew each other?

And what he didn't expect just now was the conversation between the two, Shao Huachi didn't pretend to be stupid, that was because An Zhonghai knew Shao Huachi's secret!

An Zhonghai walked in, judging from the volume and the hour, he came secretly.

"Your Highness the Seventh, the slave just got the news...... An Zhonghai walked into the room, and stopped talking.

"I already know. Shao Huachi knew that An Zhonghai was talking about Concubine Li's body being found.

"You mourn and change. An Zhonghai sighed, he also just learned that not long ago, the emperor is now on his back, and he was also sent out to deal with the aftermath by the way. took a closer look at Shao Huachi's expression, and he couldn't see a little sad look, and his heart couldn't help but feel cold, no matter how he said it, Concubine Li was Shao Huachi's mother, how could this person be a son without it, he was not sad at all, and the Seventh Prince was too affectionate.

An Zhonghai thought that in the past, the emperor commented on Shao Huachi, this son has a thin temperament and is embarrassed.

"There is no sorrow, and there is a warm mourning. Before leaving, the concubine asked you to collect the evidence, how is it?" asked Shao Huachi.

"It's ready, and the slave will present it to His Majesty in a few days. An Zhonghai knew that what Shao Huachi asked was evidence that Concubine Li was framed, which was investigated since Concubine Li was beaten into Jingyang Palace, in order to return her innocence and restore her favor, they all used up their relationship in the palace for more than ten years.

"Okay, the person you want is in the northernmost mansion of Dongyu Lane in the north of the city. ”

"Your Highness Xie!" An Zhonghai suddenly burst out with unprecedented enthusiasm, An Zhonghai is a dark line prepared by Concubine Li for Shao Huachi, and can help Shao Huachi at a critical moment. He is also one of the few people who knew in advance that Shao Huachi was pretending to be stupid without worrying about being betrayed.

But An Zhonghai is not Concubine Li's mother and son, and he doesn't even count as cronies, and the reason why he is in contact now is only because he has to help. When An Zhonghai was young, he had a very good relationship with the food, which was the big palace maid next to the first emperor, and later this big palace maid was used by the first emperor, after the death of the first emperor, some people were martyred, and some were sent to the temple with green lights, An Zhonghai used his relationship to secretly send people out of the palace, but later the Chaowu people repeatedly invaded, which made the Northeast extremely chaotic, and lost contact with the woman. Later, it was only by relying on Concubine Li's power outside the palace that she found someone. An Zhonghai's friendship with this woman is very unusual, and she was also pinched by Concubine Li's mother and son.

is only a relationship of interest between each other, and no one can tell anyone, Shao Huachi can let An Zhonghai do things, but he will not fully trust this person.

"Is there something that the minion doesn't know to ask?"

Shao Huachi motioned for An Zhonghai to continue.

"Concubine Li is herself...... , or was he killed?" An Zhonghai was inclined to the latter, only when Concubine Li was there, the days of His Royal Highness the Seventh could be guaranteed, and he could win some attention in front of the emperor. A prince who has no mother's protection, his life in this palace is often more difficult than that of a slave, and the landing phoenix is not as good as a chicken.

"What do you say?" Shao Huachi sneered, and in that smile, there was a touch of desolation, which was as lonely as the sunset.

Before leaving, An Zhonghai reminded.

"Your Highness, if you are not stupid, you are guilty of deceit. "If it weren't for the most important person in the hands of Concubine Li's mother and son, An Zhonghai was choked by his weakness, otherwise how could he risk the crime of bullying the monarch to help the powerless Seventh Prince.

"You don't have to worry about it, do your job well, and you'll get what you want. Shao Huachi believes that only a community of interests will not be betrayed lightly, An Zhonghai is an old man in the palace, and he knows how to protect himself best.

"Yes, Your Highness, the minion is too talkative. ”

An Zhonghai left, Shao Huachi sat on the chair with his back to Fu Chen, "After listening to so much, you still won't change your mind?"

Fu Chen's silence was an answer in disguise.

After waiting for a long time, Shao Huachi's eyes gradually dimmed, maybe he had already guessed Fu Chen's choice, "Get out!"

Fu Chen was silent, and when he turned to the threshold, Shao Huachi's voice suddenly came from inside, "Fu Chen, you were half sincere to me before. ”

"Your Highness, it doesn't matter whether you're sincere or not. ”

"You will regret the choice you made today. ”

"Minion, I don't know what regret is. "The throne, every prince is bound to win, but there is only one position.

"What if I did everything you asked?"

"That—the minions will see. ”

Not completely refused, maybe he subconsciously wanted to see the miracle of that small possibility.

——Jin Jiang.Du.Jia.Fa.Table——

After a few days, I heard that the national teacher personally treated him, and the stupidity of the Seven Princes was much better, and now he can understand some words simply, but he is very forgetful, like a young child.

Soon there were rumors in the palace that the seven princes were back in favor, and since Li changed clothes and died violently in the cold palace, the emperor somehow suddenly cared about the seven princes, and also broke the rule that the prince was not allowed to go to the court to listen to the government before the age of twenty.

In the early days of this day, he personally sealed the seven princes of Zhengwupin County, 500 households, and 800 acres of grain fields. Although it cannot be compared with several older princes, it is a special case among the younger princes.

The originally deserted Chonghua Palace is once again like a city, and the previous scene is like two heavens.

It's just that this has nothing to do with Fu Chen, and since that day, he hasn't stepped into Chonghua Palace again.

On the contrary, he was rarely idle, and every day he helped Wang Fugui to help, adding some things to the appointment between him and Xiaoyang's vegetable households, preparing some arrangements for the day, and waiting for the approval of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. During this period, he trimmed his beard for the emperor again, and was rewarded with three taels of silver, doing things for the emperor is often the obligation of a slave, and under normal circumstances, he does not get any reward, and it is also Fu Chen who has the emperor's love to be so special. Although this love is more like that of cats and dogs, it is pleasing to the eye and kills boredom.

On the day of shaving for the emperor, Fu Chen saw Shao Huachi, who he hadn't seen for a long time, outside the imperial study, and the other party didn't look at him, it seemed that he only saw an ordinary little eunuch, who was not worthy of a glance from this royal noble. Fu Chen also hung his head and passed by, and now Shao Huachi has become an unattainable prince in the eyes of the eunuchs, looking a little stupid, but his appearance has already restored the brightness and brilliance of Concubine Li's life, and the two eunuchs who had insulted Shao Huachi were trembling, for fear of being troubled by Shao Huachi.

But unexpectedly, Shao Huachi didn't make any moves, and he didn't even mention to the emperor what the two eunuchs did, Shao Huachi seemed to have forgotten, and it was just like.

I heard that the draft teams from all over the country are already on the way to the imperial capital, including the children of officials from all over the country, and there are also famous beauties among the people, and the women who participated in the draft in the imperial capital have now moved into Chuxiu Palace, and Fu Chen often goes to Chuxiu Palace to do things these days, giving a hand to the superior eunuchs.

About because of the draft, he ran diligently to the Internal Affairs Office, and he was originally familiar with Liu Zong because of the matter of finding Concubine Li, but now that they meet, Liu Zong does not rely on his identity as the chief eunuch, and he will chat a few words when he sees Fu Chen.

After Concubine Li died suddenly, the emperor restored her concubine position during her lifetime, and gave her a generous burial, and even posthumously sealed the title, Zhenhui Duanmin Guifei.

From this chastity, it can be seen what kind of attitude the emperor has towards Concubine Li.

Liu Zong had a very good impression of Fu Chen because Fu Chen found Concubine Li as quickly as possible, so that he would not be trained.

One day, he suddenly ordered a little eunuch to call Fu Chen out of Chuxiu Palace.

"Have you offended Li Xiangying?"

Fu Chen groaned before he told Chen Zuoren about it, Liu Zong listened, "It stands to reason that he shouldn't hold a grudge against you, since the little eunuch named Chen Zuoren has left, your grievances should also be written off, and if you want to say it, it is almost the same as if he owes you, if it weren't for your saint that day and didn't dissipate his anger so quickly, maybe you didn't know what offended this person." ”

Fu Chen naturally should be, he naturally wouldn't say anything about dealing with Li Xiangying behind his back, at least if this matter is not put on the table, he won't tear his face with Li Xiangying for a day.

I must say that there are any grievances in the near future, probably because Li Xiangying asked him to serve the meal, and he got an ear scraper from Liu Zong, and he lost face.

"Master Liu, is something wrong?"

"Do you know that he suddenly got face from the Queen Mother now?"

After Fu Chen got the aconitum, he was drying it, looking for an opportunity to add it to Li Xiangying's tobacco leaves, but this matter could not be rushed, let a steward eunuch disappear, and completely annihilate the evidence in the crowded palace, and he could not be in a hurry.

Chu Xiugong has a lot of affairs, so he put this matter aside for the time being.

"The little ones don't know. ”

"I don't think you know, a few days ago, the envoy came to Fanbang, you should know about this. Liu Zong drank the tea brewed by Fu Chen, approached his nose with the cup, and took a sip of the tea fragrance, "I'm used to drinking your tea, and other people's can no longer be seen!"

"Liu Ye praised falsely. After Fu Chen finished making tea, he stood again, not carried away because of Liu Zong's appreciation.

Liu Zong also appreciates Fu Chen's appearance of victory and defeat without being discouraged, in the palace, only people who can make up their minds can go far, "The people of that state invented a dry tobacco to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother was originally slightly ill, but now she is in good spirits, but as long as you don't smoke this tobacco, the body will return to its original state, or even worse, I heard that the price of tobacco is extremely high, and the production is cumbersome, and this is still the identity of the Queen Mother to smoke." There are no people around the Queen Mother who worship cigarettes, and now they are still training, so they are looking for people who will worship cigarettes to serve, so there is Li Xiangying, Li Xiangying has served the emperor, knowing this step, the Queen Mother has rewarded him a lot. Now it's me, and I can't offend him. ”

Although Liu Zong's position is much higher than Li Xiangying, now Li Xiangying is a celebrity in front of the Queen Mother.

Fu Chen directly skipped what Liu Zong said, and instead focused on asking a strange question, "Master Liu, do you know what the name of that tobacco is." ”

Liu Zong glanced at Fu Chen strangely, "Ah Furong." ”

Fu Chen's eyes sank, and he didn't look unusual, but Liu Zong still noticed that Fu Chen was a little wrong, "Is there anything wrong with this tobacco?"

"Not really. ”

A hibiscus was another name for opium in the Tang Dynasty. In the original dynasties, opium appeared during the Six Dynasties.

Opium was first known to have been used as a medicinal herb to treat dysentery. It's just that later there is a record in the history books that it "kills people like a sword, and it is advisable to prescribe it deeply", and there are also relevant records in the "Compendium of Materia Medica", and it even appeared in front of the clan nobles as a tribute in other countries in the Tang Dynasty. It wasn't until someone in the Ming and Qing dynasties invented cooked opium for smoking, which gradually made people addicted and couldn't extricate themselves, and began to introduce it in large quantities, thus becoming a kind of tragedy like the end of the world.

Indeed, as Liu Zong said, this was a rarity in some dynasties, and only those with the highest status could enjoy it.

But it is precisely because he is a person with a high status that he has more right to speak. If they do, it could be irreversible.

The history of the development of each society is always strikingly similar in some respects. And Fu Chen knew that with his current status, no one would take his words seriously at all, even if he didn't want to see this hidden danger remain, but now there was nothing he could do.

Liu Zong couldn't ask why, he just thought that Fu Chen also wanted to suck that thing, "That's something that only the Queen Mother can use, don't dream." ”

"Where do the minions dare. By the way, what did you just want to say about Gonggong Li?" Fu Chen diverted the topic.

"He has been promoted now, and he submitted an arrangement for a hundred little eunuchs, in which he applied you to Concubine Qi. As for Chen Zuoren's matter, it is also the reason why he took Qi Guifei, and now I want you to pass, and I may not be able to go out for a few days, and I will never see you again. Now that I've put this matter down, I don't have any problem with other people's assignments, but you...... He should think of another way, if you have a way, let yourself enter a separate palace first, and avoid this encounter. ”

Fu Chen went out of the Internal Affairs Mansion, swept to Yeting Lake until the evening, and sat by the lake for a long time, the evening breeze blew him so hard that he got up and went back to the prison barn, it was already late at this time, Fu Chen also missed the time for dinner, but fortunately, he usually had food on his body.

Passing by the Twelve Institutes of Longyu West, I saw two eunuchs carrying a human body wrapped in a red cloth and resisting inside, and they were followed by Ye Xin.

In the middle of the night, everyone had already gone to bed, and at this time, they could still carry people into the twelve, so Fu Chen naturally had some guesses.

After living in the palace for so many years, it should be clear that a few years ago, the emperor favored a palace maid, and he also tied up a bundle of cloth and carried it back, but the person died in a few days, or Aunt Mei was mourned. Fu Chen knew that it was rare to let the palace maid win the emperor's eyes by herself. To charm the emperor, first of all, the queen mother and the queen will send them down. In the palace rules, the low-level palace maids are much stricter than the eunuchs, otherwise there are so many aunts, and this dogma will not be in vain. The clothes and accessories of the four seasons are customized, not outstanding, not showy, to be mellow, to be simple and unpretentious, everywhere to show the grandeur of the palace, the strict rules are also the reason for the stability of the harem.

Of course, this is only the case most of the time, sometimes the emperor wants to favor the palace maid and no one dares to stop it, and it is the palace master who arranges for his own palace maids to help fix the favor, and it is another rule, the palace maid who has been favored for a period of time, the Jin Dynasty is also zài.

What Fu Chen sees now is the emperor's favor of the little palace maid, this kind of little palace maid is often forgotten after only being lucky for one night.

As for whether the little palace maid is willing or not, it doesn't matter. Even if they don't want to, they can't cry, they can't scream, they even have to bend their hearts and say decent things, otherwise they are dissatisfied with the emperor and will be punished.

Ye Xin also saw Fu Chen, and he waved his hand to let the two eunuchs carry people in, "Fu Chen, what are you doing here?"

"That's what I'm asking, who is it carrying?"

"Why bother asking me, a palace maid has the emperor's eye, this is a good thing for the ancestral tomb to burn green smoke. ”

"What are you doing in this?"

"Fu Chen, don't think that last time I kindly reminded you, let's just be brothers? Have you forgotten one thing, we're not familiar with each other. Ye Xin didn't care about Fu Chen, and before stepping into the West Twelve Institutes, he turned his head to Fu Chen and said, "You'd better be the same as before, don't let you be in charge of things." ”

On the second day, Fu Chen found that Wang Fugui's bed had not been moved, and he had not come back all night, and the others were all confused.

During the day, when passing through the 12th Institute of Longyu West, I heard a faint cry from inside, and then listened carefully, Fu Chen inquired, but found nothing, there was no special time, and Aunt Mei could not come out at any time.

Fu Chen originally wanted to meet Aunt Mei when he went to Chuxiu Palace, but he didn't expect Aunt Mei to let other aunts take up their duties for a day that day. It wasn't until this night that Fu Chen came back from a business trip that he saw that the gate of their small courtyard was closed, and there were hundreds of small courtyards in the prison courtyard, and one courtyard was not very noticeable.

Fu Chen banged on the door, and the person inside opened a crack, and looked inside nervously, and found that it was Fu Chen who let the person in.

Fu Chen didn't understand what was wrong with the people in the courtyard, and when he entered the house, a group of people surrounded him, their faces were solemn, and they seemed to stop talking.

Fu Chen asked: "What are you doing, do you still need to close the door?" I don't know if this is more attention-grabbing, and I am not afraid that the master will come and ask, hmm? What does it smell like?. Fu Chen's face changed, and he seemed to smell a strong smell of blood.

"Fu Chen, we ......"

"Get out of the way!" Fu Chen realized that something was wrong.
