Chapter 25: It's Dusk

"Oh?" Mei Rui raised her voice, "I don't know about this, I'd like to hear about it." ”

He really couldn't say those pickled words, his eyebrows were wrinkled into Sichuan characters, Mei Rui waited for a moment and didn't see him make a sound, so he asked: "Commander Zhao?" ”

"Don't call me the commander, there's no one else here!" Zhao Chun was really depressed by the commander of her voice, Mei Rui laughed: "In the past, there are fewer things to do, now there is a difference between men and women, it stands to reason that I should avoid suspicion with the commander, like you, it will ruin the reputation of my daughter's family, but I can't get married, but how can it be good?" ”

"I'll marry you!" Zhao Chun blurted out, Mei Rui was stunned, and then waved her hand: "The commander is making fun of me again, and these naughty jokes will be avoided in the future." ”

Zhao Chun said eagerly: "I am sincere. ”

"Are you really trying to tease me?" She seemed to have the intention to pretend not to understand, don't look over to look at the spring flowers on the branches, the side face is more beautiful than the spring flowers, Zhao Chun expressed his frustration, and couldn't help but be a little frustrated, he knew that these things couldn't force her, he was too impatient.

He originally planned to propose to her after she left the palace at the right age, and he also entrusted someone to run the remote literature museum.

Zhao Chun was so angry that he gritted his teeth and wanted to get back a game, but he couldn't control his temperament, so it evolved into what he is now. He originally wanted to talk to her with good words, but looking at her expression, no matter what he said, she probably couldn't listen to it, Zhao Chun sighed: "That's it, that's it." ”

"What?" Mei Rui twisted her eyebrows, and Zhao Chun waved her hand: "These rumors, don't talk about them, they will dirty your ears." ”

Just listening to the four words, Mei Rui knew what Zhao Chun was going to say, she froze there, looked at Zhao Chun directly, and said coldly: "What, does Commander Zhao also believe those words?" ”

"That's not what I meant!" Zhao Chun hurriedly said, "You know me, how could I look at you like that?" It's just that these words have been spreading so hard lately that I want to sue you," he hesitated for a moment before holding back the latter sentence, "Daughter's family, you should value some reputation." ”

The corners of Mei Rui's mouth twitched: "What words?" You say it and I listen to it. ”

Zhao Chun was still reluctant to say it, and Mei Rui raised her eyebrows: "Okay, the commander is reluctant to say it, since these words are spread to the public, then the palace should know about it, and I will know what it is when I ask at will." ”

After saying that, she was about to leave, but Zhao Chun was really defeated by her, stopped her, and gritted her teeth: "Are you sure you want to listen?" ”

She nodded, "Sure." ”

"That's good," he really didn't want to stiffen the relationship, and said helplessly, "You went out of the palace with Lu Zhi a few days ago, and the next day you drove in the same car, and you were seen by many people." It is very common to catch wind and shadows in the palace, at first it was rumored that you and Lu Zhi were close, and then it was rumored that it was even more difficult to hear......"

"What's that hard to hear?"

She chased after her, Zhao Chun's face was a little hesitant, and he shook his head: "Forget it, don't listen to it." ”

"You man!" Mei Rui couldn't wait to step forward and grab his collar, she took a deep breath, "That's all said and done, is it necessary for the commander to sell something to me?" ”

"I really don't want you to know," Zhao Chun was a little embarrassed, seeing that her eyebrows rose again, and hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, I'll talk about it." You know Lu Zhen's identity, the lieutenant of the Nanya Forbidden Army, he holds great power, and even the excerpts presented to His Majesty must be seen by him first, and he will only give them to His Majesty when he encounters really important things. Our little majesty has just ascended the throne, so naturally he can't suppress Lu Zhi, some people outside have long said that the little majesty is just an ornament, and the real emperor of Dajin is Lu Zhen. ”

Mei Rui had heard these rumors early in the morning, but during the period of time she stayed in front of the emperor, she didn't see that Lu Zhi had any thoughts of fighting for fame and fortune, let alone treating the little emperor as a puppet.

She told Zhao Chun what she meant, but Zhao Chun disagreed: "What do you know!" This is called killing, what do you want, in addition to rights, such a majesty will be a docile lamb when he grows up in the future, and he doesn't dare to say a word in the face of the 'emperor' Lu Zhi. He was wrong and wrong, "This Lu Zhen is really vicious!" ”

Mei Rui frowned: "Is there such a statement?" ”

"Naturally," Zhao Chun patiently explained to her, "Do you know who Lu Zhi is?" ”

"This also needs to be asked? The great eunuch in front of the emperor, the lieutenant of the guard army of the Southern Ya......"

Zhao Chun glanced at her funny: "Who asked you this, I'm asking you, do you know his life experience?" ”

I really don't know this Mei Rui, but if she has a good background, who would be willing to enter the palace to be a eunuch, either the family is poor and forced to do so, or she will be enslaved in the palace if she commits a crime. It's not a glorious thing to explore the past of others, and Mei Rui is naturally not willing to do it: "Don't talk about it, I don't want to listen to this." ”

She was a little panicked, she always didn't want to know more about Lu Zhen, his past and his ruthlessness were thunder pools for her, and she didn't want to step into it to explore. But Zhao Chun didn't give up, he only didn't say half of what he said, how could he not listen to half of what he heard, he didn't care whether Mei Rui said it or not, and said straightforwardly: "Don't you think that Lu Zhi and Xiao Majesty look so similar?" ”

Mei Rui was shocked, and said in a low voice: "Yuan Liang! Aren't you afraid of losing your head when you say this? ”

Zhao Chun heard her call him, and was overjoyed: "What are you calling me?" After all these years, you finally called me like this again, and I am really happy. But if you add the word brother to the end and call Brother Yuanliang in a row, then I will be even happier. What he said to her, he was only concerned, "I don't know much about this in the whole palace, and I also vaguely know some things back then, after all, my aunt is in the palace, and sometimes she will invite me to talk to her." ”

Mei Rui's face turned pale with anger from him, and she desperately tried to suppress her trembling, but her voice still trembled slightly when she spoke: "I said it, I don't want to hear these words, please don't say it again." In addition, there are many people in the palace, and if the commander still wants to die, he will control his tongue, so as not to bury his future. ”

After speaking, she took a step back and lowered her eyelids: "I will retire first, and I hope that the guards will cherish it." ”

She turned around and left, Zhao Chun didn't have time to react, and when she was far away, she heard Zhao Chun calling her behind her. Afraid that Zhao Chun would chase him out and say something more, Mei Rui gritted her teeth and quickened her pace, trying to get rid of him.

Huaizhu and the column of guards were still beside the willow tree, but Huaizhu had already waited with a depressed face, and when she looked up, she saw Mei Rui walking this way with a straight face, and followed Zhao Chun about twenty steps behind her, so she felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly greeted her: "Rui Rui, what's wrong?" ”

"It's nothing," Merry frowned, "let's go." ”

Huaizhu belched and grabbed Mei Rui's right arm and walked forward, Zhao Chun happened to chase after him, and his words were full of gasp: "Aunt Mei Rui." ”

In front of so many people here, he naturally couldn't shout that affectionate title, Huaizhu paused, turned his head to look at Zhao Chun, and the eyebrows of the young leader were more dazzling than the sun in the spring.

Mei Rui didn't look at him, her steps never slowed down, she pulled Huaizhu forward, walked out of the distance, Huaizhu looked back again, Mei Rui asked in her ear, "Did you keep up?" ”

"Huh?" Huaizhu shook his head suddenly, "I didn't follow." Then he asked curiously, "What did you just say?" ”

"Didn't say anything," Mei Rui looked tired, she looked up at the sky that was confined by the immature red wall, "I'm a little tired, let's go back." ”

Later, the little emperor and Lu Zhi came back, and after dealing with the rest of the trivial matters, the first thing the little emperor thought of was to come to see Mei Rui, but after a while, he was shouting tired, shouting that Huaizhu wanted to send him back, and the holy will could not be violated, so Huaizhu had to go out with the little emperor depressed.

Fu San'er also followed along, so Mei Rui and Lu Zhi were left. It's like this again and again, and a fool can guess it, Mei Rui is very embarrassed, Lu Zhi is sitting opposite her, across the table, and the eyebrows are pleasing to the eye.

After sitting awkwardly like this for a while, Mei Rui pinched the corner of her clothes and said, "The guards are also lacking today, so it's better to go back and rest first." ”

"I'm not very tired," Lu Zhi raised his eyes to look at her, "Did the bachelor go out today?" ”

He seemed to like to call her a bachelor, calling her gentle and elegant, Mei Rui nodded, and Lu Zhi said again: "The red plums withered when the bachelor was sick in bed, but the apricot blossoms in the palace bloomed well, have you seen it?" ”

"Never." She replied only in a few words, her mind was full of Zhao Chun's words in the daytime, saying that he was somewhat similar to the little emperor, and she just took a look, especially those eyes, with a hint of charm between the waves of the spring mountain, as if they wanted to absorb people's hearts. The little emperor is still young, he hasn't grown up yet, and he always has a smile on weekdays, and if you don't look carefully, you can't see the similarity between him and Lu Zhen.

Mei Rui was frightened, as if she had discovered a big secret, Zhao Chun said that there was a relationship between Lu Zhi and the little emperor, and few people knew what kind of relationship people who looked so similar. It must be an unspeakable past, coupled with the fact that Lu Zhi is so cute with the little emperor, could it be that the little emperor is actually Lu Zhen's son?

Mei Rui herself was scared of herself, but the more she thought about it, the more certain she felt, otherwise why would Lu Zhi be so kind and caring to the little emperor. It is really the most ridiculous thing since the founding of the country, the emperor is not a real royal bloodline!

And Lu Zhen, isn't he a stubble, how can there be such a child as the little emperor? The only explanation is that he is actually a real man, there is no shortage of anywhere, and there is no shortage of anywhere.

Thinking about it carefully, it was really terrifying, Mei Rui broke out in a cold sweat, just thinking about staying away from these things, not getting involved, otherwise she might be killed.

She was distracted, and Lu Zhen's words suddenly woke her up, and he said, "The bachelor looks a little unusual today, did you hear something outside?" ”

"Never!"

Mei Rui said categorically, but Lu Zhi looked at her with his eyes, and said with a smile: "Really? ”

His expression and tone made Mei Rui a little creepy, but in fact, she was weak in her own heart, and she always felt that her clumsy hiding techniques had been seen through by him at a glance. She hurriedly turned her head away, bit her lip and said, "Naturally, it's true." ”

Lu Zhi chuckled: "Are you sure?" ”

"Of course!" Hearing that he didn't believe it, Mei Rui turned her head angrily, met his eyes, and felt that there was nowhere to hide, even the roots of her ears began to redden, Lu Zhi looked at her like this, and said with a smile: "Since it's true, what is the bachelor flustered about?" ”

"Where?" She pinched her palm with her fingertips, desperately refusing to admit it, Lu Zhi mixed a cup of tea for herself, tasted it slowly, and said, "Since the bachelor said no, then there is none." ”

Mei Rui breathed a sigh of relief, and listened to Lu Zhi say unhurriedly: "Those gossips outside, if the bachelor hears them in the future, he will also take them as a deaf ear, don't go to his heart." If I really feel that I am blocked, I will bring the messengers before me, and I will do them for the bachelor. ”

She knows Nanya's methods, once a sinner is escorted into Nanya, he has always had to come out horizontally. But what he seemed to say was not the same thing as what Mei Rui was thinking, Mei Rui's heart settled down a little, and said to him: "These things are left to others to say, slaves and maids have always been very open to these things that catch the wind and shadows, and besides, they are only happy on their tongues, in the end, they just can't see that others are better than them." ”

"The bachelor is broad-hearted," Lu Zhi narrowed his eyes, "Even if the thing he said is related to the reputation of the bachelor, the bachelor doesn't care?" ”

She nodded, and Lu Zhi laughed: "Even if they say that I am the Emperor Standing by the Dragon Chair, and the Bachelor is going to become my queen, the Bachelor doesn't care?" ”

She'd never heard anything like that! Mei Rui was almost choked and dumbfounded: "What did the protector say?" ”

As if admiring her surprise, Lu Zhi supported her, looked at her with a smile, and repeated Fang Cai's words again, Mei Rui reluctantly regained her calm, and made a mistake: "The body is not afraid of the shadow, the slave and the guard sit upright, innocently, even if they let what they say, it is also a fabrication out of thin air!" ”

"Really?" Lu Zhen's face pale, white and flawless in the light and shadow of the bright candle, "Then what if I really have other thoughts about the bachelor?" ”
