Lin Yuqing lowered his head, hesitated for a moment, and then stood up respectfully, not daring to take another step.

At this time, another palace maid came over to replace Lin Yuqing and continued to polish ink for the emperor.

Looking at the emperor's appearance, it seemed that there were a lot of things to do, so he didn't pay much attention to Lin Yuqing, but looked at the twists and turns in front of him more attentively.

Lin Yuqing stood behind the emperor's side and saw the emperor's side face. When she is tired from standing, she will also move a little, although the amplitude is not large, but it can relieve the fatigue of the body.

Inadvertently, she glanced at the emperor and found that the emperor's eyes were very beautiful, and even made her feel very familiar. In addition, the emperor's appearance was originally a beautiful man in a million, and with such a pair of divine eyes, this beauty added a bit of masculinity.

"Your Majesty, it's not too early, isn't it time to rest?"

Komatsu stepped forward and whispered.

The emperor didn't look up, just nodded slightly.

However, seeing that Xiao Song saw that not only the emperor was in his eyes, but also everyone who was guarding Huangshan was all in Xiao Song's view. He saw Lin Yuqing looking at the emperor with an exploratory look, so he walked to Lin Yuqing's side.

Xiao Song seemed to be laughing at Lin Yuqing's obsessed appearance when he looked at the emperor, and felt funny, so he couldn't help but joke: "Hey, our Huangshan is one of the most beautiful men in the Shang country, but it is not a little palace maid like you who can covet it." ”

Lin Yuqing glared at him, but he didn't expect that in front of the emperor, Xiao Song could joke so casually. Although the voice is a little quieter. But there is no guarantee that the emperor will not listen to it.

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm just going to see if the emperor has anything I need help with."

Komatsu couldn't help but sneer. "Oops, that's a funny joke. You don't even know how to grind ink, and the miscellaneous family really doesn't know what else to do in this study. ”

Lin Yuqing peeked at the other palace maids in the study, some were waiting to serve tea to the emperor, some were fanning the emperor with a gentle breeze, and so on, as if everyone had their own things except her.

Just when she had nowhere to vent her frustration that she didn't know where to put her now, the emperor was still looking at the folds in her hand. He said casually, "What are you two muttering in the back?" ”

Xiao Song smiled meaningfully at Lin Yuqing, then leaned over to the emperor's side, and said a little flatteringly: "Back to the emperor, the palace maid Shen Xiu said that she didn't polish the ink for the emperor just now, so she wants to stay tonight and serve the emperor well." ”

When Lin Yuqing heard this, he stabbed Xiao Song with a dissatisfied face.

But Komatsu didn't seem to care at all. continued to smile at the emperor.

The emperor seemed to be very interested in such a thing, closed the fold in his hand, turned his head, and saw Xiao Song frowning at him.

He couldn't help but smile. said: "It's just right, don't let other concubines come over today." ”

When Lin Yuqing heard it, he hadn't said anything yet. was finalized by a man who patted the horse and the white horse himself for tonight, and. Or something she was extremely reluctant to do.

Lin Yuqing knelt on the ground, and then fell to the ground with his head and hands. begged for mercy repeatedly: "Your Majesty, Shen Xiu doesn't dare to think about it. Being able to serve by the emperor's side is already a great blessing for Shen Xiu. Shen Xiu is already content, and begging the emperor to let Shen Xiu be an ordinary palace maid in Yuming Palace. ”

Hearing Lin Yuqing say this, Meng Tan's face suddenly sank, and he said with a cold face: "Isn't it better to be my concubine than a little palace maid?" What makes you reluctant to accept the opportunity to reach the sky in one step? ”

Lin Yuqing was silent for a moment, and then said slowly: "The sky is too high, and the slave will be crushed if she falls." Therefore, the slave would rather live a stable life on the earth honestly than fly to the sky and worry about falling off at any time. ”

"Do you really think so?" The emperor asked again with a calm face.

"Yes." Lin Yuqing replied firmly.

She knew very well that she was probably just a whim of the emperor and wanted to taste something fresh. However, with her posture of grabbing a lot of money everywhere, this freshness period will not last long, and at the best, maybe she will become a cold palace concubine again. Therefore, this time, she said that she couldn't promise the emperor anything.

"I don't know how to lift."

The emperor left these words, shook his hand, got up and left.

The others also left with the emperor, leaving only Lin Yuqing on his knees. Without the emperor's speech, of course she didn't dare to get up.

However, after the emperor left with the people, he sat down at the table and asked everyone else to go down, leaving Komatsu alone.

He stared blankly at the dancing candle flame and asked listlessly, "Komatsu, what is this for?" I want her to like the real me, and, with the respect of my Son of Heaven, doesn't every woman have the luxury of becoming my woman? Why don't you want this woman? ”

Komatsu looked at the distressed look on the emperor's face, as if he was a child who had just fallen in love.

He knows very well in his heart that the emperor has not been easy over the years, although he has countless beauties, but there are very few who can really enter the emperor's heart. Even if there are a few like-minded concubines, they still try to be bound by the interests of the family behind them, so that a little happiness that is hard to have is also shrouded in interests and loses their color.

It can be said that when the emperor first saw this palace maid named Shen Xiu, he didn't have much thought. However, with deeper and deeper contact, this unusual behavior of the little palace maid made the emperor rarely show a sincere smile on his face.

However, she rejected the emperor's kindness, which was unexpected by the emperor.

"Your Majesty," Xiao Song thought for a moment and said respectfully, "Do you like Shen Xiu's natural innocence?" Or do you prefer to lock her up and leave her alone? ”

Meng Tan stared at Komatsu suspiciously, then understood the meaning of Komatsu's words, and sighed.

"Yes! If you lock her up as a caged bird, you will lose the most natural aura. Perhaps, the idea that has already started is wrong. ”

Xiao Song saw that the emperor was so depressed, just like an old friend, and said: "Your Majesty, although the slave does not understand men and women, he always feels that if he likes someone, he should give her the life she wants according to her ideas." If this Shen Xiu really doesn't want to participate in the battle between the concubines in the palace, then why not let her continue to be a palace maid. As long as you get along with the emperor day and night, one day you will know the emperor's good intentions, and one day you will be moved. (To be continued......)
