54. Chapter 54

Chapter 54 is out of mind

When Lin Yuqing heard this, he secretly thought, does the emperor still want to reward himself? Gold and silver treasure or power position? Or, is the emperor actually testing himself?

"The slave maid doesn't dare, it's an honor for the slave to be able to help the emperor, and I really don't dare to think about it anymore."

Lin Yuqing thought, it is still important to save his life. In case the emperor said the opposite, then she didn't know how to hit the muzzle of the gun, didn't she kill herself?

The emperor looked at Lin Yuqing, who was kneeling on the ground, with a displeased face.

Xiao Song, who was behind Lin Yuqing, saw it clearly, and of course he knew the meaning of every look of the Emperor Dao.

So, he took two steps forward and saluted the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, just now the slave took Shen Xiu all the way to here, even if it is not as great as Shen Xiu's blood donation, but the hard work is not small!" Can the slave implore the emperor to reward the slave for the sake of his hard work? ”

Xiao Song unceremoniously asked for a reward, which was unexpected by Lin Yuqing. She tilted her head, and all she saw was Komatsu's shoes, so she didn't dare to look up again.

However, her small act did not escape the eyes of the three men.

Chu Ke and the emperor looked at each other and smiled, and then said, "Your Majesty, I will also reward you." I know you're going to give it to me. ”

"Okay, since the three of you have merit, say it one by one." The emperor said with a smile.

Chu Ke said: "I know that the emperor recently got two catties of green firefly tea, which has been rare for ten years, can you reward your ministers with half a catty, and let your ministers taste it well." ”

After Chu Ke finished speaking, he smiled secretly in his heart.

The emperor's smile froze on his face, and it took a while to barely squeeze out a smile.

"Ah, this, it's easy to say, it's easy to say. Half a catty, just half a catty! ”

"Your Majesty."

Before the emperor's words fell, Chu Ke immediately thanked him, for fear that the emperor would regret it.

The emperor shook his head helplessly, and saw that Lin Yuqing was still kneeling on the ground, although she was a little tempted, her body moved, but she was not bold enough to dare to say it to the emperor directly.

"Komatsu, it's your turn now."

The corners of Xiao Song's mouth grinned behind his ears, "The emperor also knows that a slave is a person who loves money, if the emperor can reward the slave with some gold and silver, it will be enough." ”

This sentence almost made Lin Yuqing bite off his tongue. Is this emperor too easy to talk, these two people, talking to the emperor, are like friends.

"Okay, then you can go and get thirty taels of gold yourself!" The emperor's reward for gold and silver is very simple.

Of the three meritorious people, two were rewarded, and there was only one Lin Yuqing left.

"Your name is Shen Xiu?" The emperor asked softly.

"The slave is Shen Xiu."

Lin Yuqing really didn't want to kneel down now, she felt that her legs had been pressed and began to go numb. However, she could not let her mind get up.

"Get up and talk!"

The emperor's words made Lin Yuqing get amnesty.

She hurriedly got up, but after kneeling for a long time, when she got up, she leaned forward, but fortunately she held on to the chair in time, so she didn't fall down.

"Say, what reward do you want?" The emperor said with a pleasant face.

Lin Yuqing blinked. Of course, she wanted gold and silver treasures, but at this stage, it was not the most important thing. No amount of money can make her live at ease in the palace.

So, she thought about it for a while, and it was better to have something practical.

"Slave, slave just wants to go out of the palace."

As soon as Lin Yuqing said this, Xiao Song and the emperor were startled, and the two looked at each other, not knowing how to respond for a while.

Chu Ke didn't know what happened between the three of them, seeing the expressions on the faces of the emperor and Xiao Song, he seemed to be very concerned about Shen Xiu's departure from the palace.

So, in order to solve this problem, he said: "Out of the palace? It's not an easy task. You must know that everyone who enters the palace is isolated from the outside world, and casually entering and leaving the palace will bring a lot of trouble to the masters. ”

When Chu Ke said this, he almost pointed the finger at himself for this matter. In other words, even if the emperor did not agree to her request, the responsibility lies with him.

"Yes, if you leave the palace, it's hard to say. Think again, is there anything else you want? The emperor followed Chu Ke's words, and the burden in his heart was much lighter.

Lin Yuqing wondered in his heart, he just wanted to get out of the palace, this should be very easy to do, why did the emperor not allow it. Her first idea was rejected, so she had to go inside the palace to find a way.

The slave thought that she hoped that she could make her own three meals a day. Therefore, I hope that the emperor will allow the slaves and maids to freely dispose of the ingredients they need in the palace. ”

Lin Yuqing still has a lot of caution about this request. If she can take the ingredients at will, Fu's mother and the child will be able to eat well.

"Shen Xiu, do you think the food of the Si Shan Si is not delicious? That's why I have to do it myself. ”

Xiao Song felt that this Shen Xiu's idea was too unique, if the emperor hadn't stopped him and didn't let him figure out what this Shen Xiu had done, he would definitely be able to understand Shen Xiu's intentions by now.

The emperor's expression froze, and his heart that was about to explore was about to be closed. However, he still pressed it down and said with a smile: "This can be had." Well, you can cook for yourself as you wish! However, I hope that if I want to eat what you made, you will not refuse. ”

"Slaves don't dare."

Yes, the emperor wants to eat his own cooking, what an honor, although Lin Yuqing is not too interested, but he can't refuse! However, she has always had a question in her heart, why did the emperor drink his own blood and make a meritorious service. However, she did not dare to say this question.

"However," at this time, Chu Ke straightened his face again and said seriously: "Today is a matter, you can't talk to anyone, if someone asks, it can only be said that it is a test of poison for the emperor, and you must not say more than half a word." ”

"The slave has written it down."

Lin Yuqing felt that if he didn't still have use value, this person named Chu Ke would definitely pull out the sword on his waist and have no proof of it.

Lin Yuqing walked out of Yuming Palace almost in a daze. She felt as if she had been closed from the ghost gate several times in such a short period of time. Although this ups and downs are mostly caused by her own fear, this real experience makes her even more desperate to save her life.

The people in the kitchen, as well as the imperial dining room, have already been specially notified. However, the external statement is that the emperor wants to eat the food cooked by Shen Xiu, so no one suspects that Lin Yuqing is doing this for himself.
