Ruan Yanluo was dressed in white, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her slender figure and the huge palace gate formed a strong contrast, almost negligible, but on the contrary, no one could really ignore her, she just stood there casually, there was an incomparable power, Nangong Xuan's eyes seemed to have a scale, on one side was the behemoth palace, and on the other side was Ruan Yanluo, who was fluttering in white, obviously the difference was so big, but the strength of the two was actually evenly matched, and even Ruan Yanluo had a faint tendency to win.

"The thing I can't touch in my life, except for the important people, is the free heart. This palace is magnificent, but to me it is nothing more than a cage. I would rather be displaced in this life, tormented upside down, than in this cage. ”

When Ruan Yanluo said this, she never thought that one day she would really enter this palace gate, nor did she think that every word she said today would become an iron-like reality in the future. If she knew that if she could do it all over again, she would definitely not say it so absolutely, at least she would have to leave a glimmer of life, so that in the future, she would not suffer so much.

She looked at Nangong and said lightly: "The sixth prince can convey my meaning to King Jin, I and this palace can only get one of them, if he chooses well, don't be greedy, otherwise I am afraid that I will lose one or the other, and in the end I will be empty-handed." ”

Bowing slightly, he said softly: "Farewell." ”

Although she said that she could get one of the two, she knew that with Nangong Jin's temperament, she would inevitably choose this huge palace city, in other words, she was not asking Nangong Jin to make a choice, but to remind him that he was destined not to get himself, so it was better to let go as soon as possible.

Ruan Yanluo walked for a long time, Nangong Xuan was still standing in place, he lowered his head and pondered Ruan Yanluo's words, there seemed to be something swaying in his heart, and there seemed to be something that took root.

In the Mingluan Palace, all the people were clean, and only the emperor and Nangong Ling remained.

Generally, when encountering this kind of scene, when the son always asks: Is the father looking for his son? Then he can say his words as a matter of course.

But this son is not, he sits slightly sideways, his face is solemn and indifferent, the position of his hands and feet can be directly taken as a model of court etiquette, his attitude is humble and polite, but he doesn't say a word, he hangs the emperor there alive, and he can't find it at all.

Looking at this excellent son, the emperor coughed dryly, and said cheekily to break the embarrassment: "You have come back these days, why haven't you entered the palace to see me." ”

"My father is busy, and my sons don't dare to disturb." Nangong Ling's answer was clear-eyed, and it was a little good, but it inexplicably made the emperor angry.

How can there be a father and son so born?

Suppressing his anger, the emperor continued: "I am old, and I can't do many things, so it's good for you to come back, and you can share my worries." ”

Nangong Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, and said nothing. No matter what he said, the emperor could continue to talk and let him take the matter, but if he didn't say a word, the emperor couldn't help it.

After waiting for a while, seeing that Nangong Ling didn't mean to speak at all, the emperor gritted his teeth angrily, but he had no choice, so he had to provoke the conversation again and said: "Recently, the Emperor of Nanchu has been seriously ill, and the people who are qualified to ascend the throne are all ready to move, I am afraid that our capital will also be restless recently." ”

Nangong Ling lowered his eyebrows and said, "Father is eloquent and strategic, and this little thing must not be taken to heart." ”

The words are respectful, but they don't leak, so that the emperor doesn't give him a chance to hand things over.

The emperor finally got impatient after going around in circles for a long time, although he valued this son, he valued Tianyao's country even more, there are some things he has to do, and he has to do it if he doesn't do it.

If it was Nangong Ling before, maybe he would have to put some effort into it, but now it's different.

His face softened, he took a sip of the tea in his hand, and said slowly: "Yesterday, your fifth brother came to ask me for a decree, saying that the girl of the Ruan family has reached the end of the marriage, and I hope to marry her as soon as possible. The girl of the Ruan family has always known Jin'er's thoughts, and I also feel that three months is indeed longer, I intend to choose a day for them in these two days, what do you think of being an elder brother? ”

Nangong Ling raised his head suddenly, the corners of his eyes shrunk slightly, and he stared at the emperor without hesitation.

His courteous coat faded in an instant, and his whole person exuded a cold and sharp weapon like a weapon. That kind of momentum made the emperor can't help but flinch a little.

The dragon has reverse scales, and the wolf has a dark thorn, and if you touch it, you will be angry, and if you peep it, you will die.

And the emperor's words undoubtedly touched Nangong Ling's reverse scales.

The little fish was his, and although he was still slowly casting his net, and tolerating her occasional loss and nonsense, it didn't mean that he allowed others to snatch it from him.

He stared at the emperor, and finally spoke slowly: "The son is not talented, and he is willing to take over the defense of Gyeonggi and share the worries of his father." ”

The emperor was stared at by him, and finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, this son was so good that he couldn't control it at all, since he was fourteen years old, Nangong Ling only did things according to his own preferences, and he would only do what he was willing to do, and if he didn't want to, no one could force him to do it.

The emperor actually didn't mind letting Nangong Ling help him do things in the form of a transaction, but this son didn't seem to have any desires at all, no matter what he took out, he couldn't get into his eyes at all, but now, he finally had a bargaining chip that could trade with Nangong Ling.

He smiled and said, "You have just come back after three years in the border, and you should have rested for a while, but since you are willing to share your worries for me, I will naturally not refute your filial piety." ”

Nangong Ling's eyebrows did not move, and he said lightly: "The fifth brother's marriage period is the finger of the father and the emperor, if it is lightly changed, I am afraid it will damage the power of heaven." ”

The emperor has been fighting with this son for so many years, and finally has the upper hand for the first time, he is now full of joy, naturally he will not pretend not to understand Nangong Ling's words, and after seeing Ruan Yanluo at the banquet just now, in his selfish heart, he is not willing to marry her to Nangong Jin so early.

Therefore, Yisu said with a solemn face: "Ling Er is thoughtful, the wedding date is still after three months, they are young men and women, and they are not in a hurry at this time." ”

"Father, Emperor Shengming." Nangong Ling stood up and gave a salute, and said indifferently: "If the father and emperor have nothing else to do, the son will retire first." ”

The emperor's intention was satisfied, and he waved his hand to signal that he could go, Nangong Ling walked to the door of the main hall, suddenly turned around again, and said coldly: "Father, this matter can only be used once." ”

The emperor was stunned, but Nangong Ling ignored it at all and walked away. The father and son fought to the end, but they were still pulled back by Nangong Ling.

The emperor was a little annoyed at first, and then he thought, what if this chip can only be used once? As long as Nangong Ling has something he cares about, there will be a steady stream of new chips to be sent.

Thinking about it, his mood improved a little again. Looking around in the empty hall, seeing where Ruan Yanluo was sitting, the emperor's gaze froze, and her self-confident and intelligent appearance in white seemed to appear in front of her again.

A strand of hair, just a little bit away, he could touch her.

His eyes gradually became gloomy, and the emperor called the eunuch who served him personally, and ordered, "Who is the person who reported King Ling's arrival just now?" Killed. ”
