Chapter 158: A Girl's Heart
Linglong hesitated, she had thought about how to say this to the emperor many times before, but when it was time to ask her to speak, she found that her tongue was like a knot, and she couldn't even say a word.
"Slave ......"
Linglong hesitated for a long time, and also hesitated for a while, and finally found that Murong Hao was not listening at all. Murong Hao just used a brush to sketch on the fold or write some words.
"Are you done?" Murong Hao put aside his pen and suddenly remembered that this palace maid seemed to have something to say just now.
Linglong hesitated, "Well, the slave is finished. β
"Hmm." Murong Hao got up and left the imperial study.
Linglong stayed alone in the empty imperial study, this room was once a dream place for many women, it was a great honor to follow the emperor in and out of the imperial study, and she Linglong had just enjoyed this glory, and before she had time to enjoy it, she was beaten back to her original form.
"What the hell did I do wrong?" Linglong was speechless and choked.
When Linglong walked out of the imperial study weakly, she happened to meet Grandpa Qiu who came in a hurry. The moment Father-in-law Qiu saw Linglong, he immediately came to his senses, was excited, and trotted up, "Linglong!" β
Although Linglong heard the voice of Father-in-law Qiu, she didn't want to deal with it, and she didn't have the heart to deal with it, so she just walked forward like a ghost.
Seeing Linglong's dejected appearance, Father-in-law Qiu panicked, and when he saw that there was no one around, he grabbed Linglong's hand, "Linglong, just now I heard from them that someone went to tell the emperor about the Dongfang feud between Gardi and Maitreya Sect Leader, but was dragged out and beheaded by the emperor's order." I was frightened and hurriedly ran over to see if it was you. β
"What about me? What if it's not me? Linglong said bitterly, at least Murong Hao heard what that person said, and she Linglong, what she said, didn't say anything, Murong Hao didn't care at all, just treat her as if she didn't save it.
Father-in-law Qiu hurriedly patted his chest, "I was relieved to see that you were good, this time it was really my fault, I thought that what you said would attract the attention of the emperor, so that the emperor would treat you better, but I didn't expect it...... Linglong, it's all my fault. β
Father-in-law Qiu blamed himself.
Linglong waved her hand, "It's not your fault, it's mine." β
The emperor didn't even know what she said, and he didn't want to know, she must have done something wrong, right?
That's right, Dawn!
Linglong's mind suddenly appeared in the figure of the morning light.
She suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked at Grandpa Qiu excitedly, "Can you take me to see that girl named Chenxi?" β
"She? Linglong, what are you going to see her for? I heard that she had an agreement with the emperor that tomorrow the emperor must let her go back in a bright and bright manner. It's not easy to see her at this time. Father-in-law Qiu said with some embarrassment.
When Linglong heard that Chenxi was leaving the palace, she was even more nervous, "Father-in-law Qiu, can you help me?" I really want to meet Dawn. β
Father-in-law Qiu saw that Linglong's eyes were full of tears, and Chu Chu's pitiful appearance couldn't bear to refuse. Moreover, this is the first time Chenxi begged him, and how can he refuse. After thinking about it for a long time, Grandpa Qiu finally sighed, "Okay, I'll take you there, but you have to pretend to serve with me." β
Linglong nodded hurriedly.
In the emperor's bedroom, Murong Hao frowned tightly, and his face was gloomy.
Blessed stood respectfully aside, his face sorrowful.
Murong Hao was silent for a long time, and finally raised his head slightly, "Defu, how true do you say what they said?" β
Defu hesitated, "If you go back to the emperor, this kind of thing can be big or small, and the reason why the ministers dare not report to the emperor is because they don't have full evidence." What's more, the concubine has always been very protective of the Maitreya Sect, and the ministers know this very well. β
"You mean, it's true?" Murong Hao frowned, Defu's loyalty did not allow him to have a trace of doubt, and it was Defu who helped him through his most difficult time.
Defu said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the slave always believes in one word, and things will not come out of nowhere. Even if it is a rumor, there is a soil for the first place to sprout rumors. β
Murong Hao fell silent again.
Just when Murong Hao was frowning, a palace maid lowered her head and came in with a bowl of warm lotus seed soup. As soon as the palace maid entered the door, Murong Hao smelled the fragrance of lotus seed soup, what appetite did he have at the moment, and he was about to send the palace maid out, but when he raised his eyes, he saw the palace maid smile innocently.
It's herβ
Murong Hao looked a little distracted.
Linglong walked up to Murong Hao with lotus seed soup and blessed Murong Hao, then turned around and nodded to Defu Gonggong on the side, Defu Gonggong's face was gentle, and he nodded slightly to Linglong. Linglong put the lotus seed soup on the table in front of Murong Hao, "The emperor has a lot of opportunities, and he needs to drink more things to replenish his vitality." β
As she spoke, Linglong smiled sweetly.
Murong Hao's brows stretched slightly, and he nodded slightly to Linglong, "I know." β
"Then the emperor should eat it." Linglong urged with a smile, but the chief manager was blessed, and she didn't dare to move.
A smile appeared on Murong Hao's face, "Okay, I'll eat it." β
Murong Hao reached out and took the spoon, scooped it and put it in his mouth, "Don't say it, I didn't feel any appetite at all just now, I just took a bite, and my appetite was immediately better." β
Linglong smiled sweetly again.
Murong Hao drank a whole bowl of lotus seed soup, and seeing Murong Hao's happy appearance, Linglong's heart was a little happy and a little sad. Why does she have to be someone else's shadow in order to please the emperor. Emperor? Isn't the slave worthy to make you happy?
I didn't dare to show all the thoughts in my heart, and my father-in-law Qiu also explained that although Defu's face was gentle, his mind was extremely meticulous, and he had to pay attention to it no matter what he was.
Linglong took the empty bowl and smiled at Murong Hao: "When the emperor finished drinking, the slave took the bowl back." β
"Do you think I'm going to be greedy for your bowl?" Murong Hao's eyes revealed a different kind of warmth.
That trace of warmth shook Linglong's heart, and in order to get more good from Murong Hao, Linglong was determined to play the play to the end.
"The emperor is the son of heaven, the whole world is not the king's land, and any affairs under the world are the emperor's, so why is the word greedy, the emperor is really tormenting slaves." Linglong pouted slightly.
A different feeling flashed in Murong Hao's heart, and in an instant, there was a very real feeling, as if the girl in front of him was Chenxi.
"Your Majesty, the slave and maid will not bother you to deal with important matters, and will retreat first." Linglong made a reluctant look, but had to leave.
Murong Hao heard Linglong's farewell, and lost his mind for another moment, "Slow." β
He didn't want her to leave, or even if he knew that this palace maid was not her, he wanted to stay with her for a while.
Linglong looked at Murong Hao suspiciously.
Murong Hao suddenly remembered something and asked, "What did you tell me in the imperial study before?" I forgot what you said in a hurry. β
Linglong's afterglow glanced at Murong Hao After saying this, Defu's brows furrowed slightly, Linglong knew what Defu was worried about, he was afraid that Linglong would deliberately seduce the emperor, and by taking advantage of the presence of the two of them in private, he would say something inappropriate, or make some requests because he was the emperor's new favorite.
Linglong grinned, "The emperor is really a noble man who forgets things, but hasn't the emperor already done it?" There's no need to listen to it again. β
"Done?" Murong Hao and Defu were stunned.
Linglong still smiled and said: "The slave told the emperor in the imperial study to let the imperial dining room make some lotus seed soup, and also told the emperor how delicious the lotus seed soup is." The emperor just hummed at that time. β
Under Linglong's 'reminder', Murong Hao finally remembered.
"I see, you are very thoughtful, why don't you stay tonight and wait for me to rest." Murong Hao said.
Bedchamber?
Linglong didn't expect things to go so fast.
Defu on the side was even more stunned, it was no good for the emperor to do something early.
"The Emperor's ......"
The stakes are high, and Defu can no longer be a quiet minion.
Murong Hao knew Defu's worries, laughed, and said to Defu jokingly: "Defu, look at you, what are you thinking." Every day before I go to bed, there are palace maids waiting for me to strip and sleep, and I just let her do what those palace maids do. β
Murong Hao's words reassured Defu, and he smiled on his face, "It's the slave who is too worried." β
Murong Hao laughed, "I don't blame you, I don't blame you." β
Although Linglong listened to Murong Hao's words and felt a moment of loss, compared to going to bed without being ready, Linglong still felt that this beautiful misunderstanding was not too bad.
Murong Hao glanced at Linglong playfully, "Aren't you a little disappointed?" β
Linglong was shy for a moment, but she was no longer as embarrassed and shy as before, but as if she had made her shyness contain some innocent atmosphere. "The slave knows that the body is more important, and the well-being of the Blessed Sacrament is more important, and the slave and the maid have never asked for anything else."
"Really?" Murong Hao smiled slightly, his eyes full of affection.
Linglong nodded vigorously.
Linglong knew that it was time for her to go, in the words of Gonggong Qiu, men like beauties, but what is more attractive than beauties is fresh. Let Murong Hao keep her fresh, so that he can always pay attention to her and like her.
After Linglong said goodbye, Defu saw that Murong Hao's eyes were still looking at the direction where Linglong left, and he couldn't help but be a little worried.
"Blessed, I want to be alone and quiet, you can step back first." Although there is Chenxi, no, she is exquisite, Murong Hao's mood has been relaxed to a certain extent, but the practical problem has to be solved.
Blessed was ordered to retreat.
Defu quickly caught up with Linglong's footsteps.
"This palace maid, wait." Defu's face is gentle, and he catches up with Linglong.
Linglong heard Defu's voice and stopped, her expression was also gentle and demure, and there was no trace of panic. At this moment, Linglong felt that Father-in-law Qiu was so powerful that he even figured out that the chief manager would catch up with her.
Defu walked up to Linglong, and Linglong respectfully saluted Defu, "Princess." β
Defu nodded slightly, "It's really rare for you to coax the emperor to be happy today." β
Linglong smiled sweetly, "Thank you for your praise, the slave maid was just fortunate to be called by the emperor to serve the pen and ink, and when she saw that the emperor was weak, she brought yΓ¬ to the emperor to get a bowl of lotus seed soup." These are what slaves and maids should do, and if the slaves and maids are fortunate enough to follow a certain little master or lady in the future, the slaves and maids will do their best. β
Linglong smiled innocently.
Defu nodded slightly, he was also satisfied with Linglong's answer, Linglong's words revealed that her ultimate goal was to be a decent palace maid with a little master or mother. Such a goal is reasonable, not ambitious. It seems that his previous thoughts were wrong. γ
"What's your name?" Defu asked with concern.
Linglong replied with a smile: "Linglong, Jiangnan people's clan, the slave's father is a master, the slave's mother......"
Defu smiled, "Okay, okay, I only asked your name, and I didn't ask you anything else, why do you bother to tell me?" β
Linglong smiled innocently, scratching the back of her head embarrassedly.
Defu waved his hand, "Stand down, and serve the emperor more wholeheartedly in the future." β
Linglong nodded happily and stepped back happily.
came to the corner outside the residence, and Grandpa Qiu was already waiting there. R638
