Chapter 165: Suspicious, Skillfully Dissolved
Thinking of what Huo Chengyu said to him before, Dugucheng asked, "Is there enough manpower in your palace?" ”
Seeing that Dugucheng suddenly changed the topic, Huo Lingxi frowned and said, "What does the emperor mean by this?" ”
Seeing that Huo Lingxi's eyes were full of vigilance against himself, Dugucheng said: "It's okay, I just hope you don't get wronged, if you don't have enough manpower, I will send you a few clever ones another day." ”
Hearing this, Huo Lingxi was not as excited as the other concubines, could it be that Dugucheng doubted himself? So thinking about stuffing people into oneself is called taking care of people, but in fact it is just overseer? Thinking that the guards outside have been replaced, and now Dugucheng is thinking about replacing the people around him, I don't know where he got such a big doubt about himself?
"Lingxi doesn't bother the emperor!" Huo Lingxi directly refused to the emperor in front of him.
Lonely City raised an eyebrow when she said this: "Oh? "I don't know if what Huo Chengyu said last time was true or false, but I haven't found anything special these days, could it be that this is a deliberate ploy by her? Do you just want to destroy the relationship between yourself and Huo Lingxi?
Hearing that there was actually a suspicion in Dugucheng's tone, Huo Lingxi said lightly: "When Lingxi was in the Huo family before, there was only one personal maid to serve, if there were more people in the palace now, Lingxi would feel uncomfortable, and besides, the manpower in this hall is still enough." ”
Hearing Huo Lingxi say this, Lonely City was relieved to think about the things she had experienced in the Huo family before, it seemed that she had been put on the spot by Huo Chengyu again, thinking that Dugucheng's eyes were a little sharp.
Although he had been restraining himself, Huo Lingxi in front of him still saw something, and he didn't know who offended him.
"If the emperor has nothing to do, please go back, the emperor is busy with affairs and Lingxi doesn't dare to bother more!" Looking at Dugucheng stunned, Huo Lingxi did not hesitate to open his mouth and directly ordered the expulsion.
No matter how stupid Dugucheng is, he can still hear the meaning of Huo Lingxi's words, his brows are slightly furrowed, and he looks at Huo Lingxi in front of him with a little more playfulness: "Which of my so many concubines doesn't expect to stay in her palace for a while?" You're the only one who kicks me out every time. ”
Although Lonely City said this to himself with a chuckle, Huo Lingxi, who had been by his side for two lifetimes, still heard his words very clearly, so he said humbly: "It's just that Lingxi feels that he has no reputation now, and the emperor is only afraid that someone will gossip." ”
Hearing this, Lonely City thought that Huo Lingxi felt that he had wronged her by not sealing her, and his eyes suddenly became soft, so he said: "This is my negligence, but you believe in me, and it won't be long before I will give you a righteous and bright identity." ”
After finishing speaking, Lonely City continued to look at her and said, "It's just that I hope you won't reject me at that time." ”
Hearing the words of Lonely City, Huo Lingxi actually felt a little funny, what did he say just now? Make yourself believe in him? I'm afraid that really believing it is a dead end, how did Zuo Ying believe in him at that time, but what happened later? There are no dead bodies. Thinking of this, Huo Lingxi actually felt that sarcasm, but he still didn't show any irony on his face, just looked at the lonely city in front of him and said lightly: "Then please ask the emperor to really fulfill his promise!" ”
Hearing this, Dugucheng felt a little funny: "The gentleman is hard to chase after him, don't you believe me?" ”
"How can the emperor's ninety-five venerable spirit rhino not believe it? It's just an accident. Huo Lingxi continued to say neither humbly nor arrogantly.
When Dugucheng saw her appearance, he felt that he had not seen the wrong person, and the personal manager on the side also glanced at Huo Lingxi deeply, afraid that in the harem in the future, he would become the person on the tip of the emperor's heart.
After Dugucheng left Huo Lingxi's place, he walked towards Huo Chengyu, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, maybe there were some things he should have a good chat with her.
At this moment, Huo Chengyu had not received the news of the emperor's imminent arrival, and at this moment, she looked at the palace maid in front of her angrily.
"What? Still no news? Huo Chengyu looked at the little palace maid in front of him very worriedly, could it be that someone really misread it that day? Why hasn't that man appeared at Huo Lingxi's place for more than half a month? Thanks to the fact that he still swore in front of the emperor at that time, and now he can only hope that the emperor did not take the events of that day seriously, Huo Chengyu prayed in his heart, but some things always backfired.
"The emperor has arrived!"
Just as Huo Chengyu was thinking of a way to make up for it, the eunuch's loud voice sounded outside the hall.
Huo Chengyu hurriedly changed his expression and stepped forward to greet him: "The concubine sees the emperor!" ”
"Concubine, please get up!" Dugucheng just said that, but he didn't help her up as happily as before.
Although Huo Chengyu felt strange, he didn't ask much.
Dugucheng sat down and said, "I, I haven't played with Concubine Ai for a long time, why don't we play a good game of chess today?" ”
Hearing this, Huo Chengyu's face was full of joy, you must know that he first retained the emperor's heart because of playing chess, but since the emperor favored himself, the two of them have not been fighting for a long time.
"The concubine obeys!" Huo Chengyu thought that this was the emperor who looked up to him and hurriedly sat down, and Ruyi behind him hurriedly set up the chessboard.
Dugu Cheng took the black chess first, and when he fell a piece, he looked at Huo Chengyu.
Huo Chengyu hurriedly dropped a white son, very happy: "If the emperor's concubine wins, will there be a reward?" Said playfully.
Dugucheng looked at Huo Chengyu in front of him, but avoided this topic, so he said casually: "The most important thing in this game of chess is to be calm, if you are eager for quick success, I am afraid that you will get a miserable end." ”
Huo Chengyu obviously didn't think much about it when he heard this, but he didn't rush to look at his chess pieces: "So the concubine wants to eat your black chess step by step." ”
Hearing this, Dugucheng sneered in his heart, but he was stupid and continued to mention her: "Some people who play chess always want to take shortcuts to let others fall into their traps, but they have never really worked hard, and they were eaten step by step, and they also lost their soldier position step by step." ”
This is already so obvious, if Huo Chengyu can't hear it anymore, he will be a fool, and suddenly remembered what he mentioned to him last time, could it be that the emperor really sent someone to investigate Huo Lingxi's matter?
Or do you get nothing like yourself?
So this is a hint that he should fulfill his promise that day.
So Huo Chengyu deliberately dropped a son, Dugucheng fell a black chess, and Huo Chengyu actually lost the whole game.
Seeing that the chessboard had become a dead end, Dugucheng said: "It seems that Aifei's chess skills are not as good as before, and she has to practice hard." ”
If Huo Chengyu didn't understand what he meant at this moment, he would really be a fool, knowing the purpose of the emperor's arrival today, Huo Chengyu's face was a little pale, and then he said: "Yes, if you want to come, the concubine should practice hard, it is better to practice well in the palace this month." ”
Dugucheng nodded appreciatively when he saw Huo Chengyu say this.
