"In that case, there's not much to say. This girl must go to ask the emperor for an order, and she will go tonight. Otherwise, the old man will kneel here and not get up. Master Shen's old face was flushed by Shen Ruoting's anger, and even his knees had been bent.

Yin Yuxi hurriedly came over to help Master Shen, and smiled bitterly, "Master Shen, don't do it, Yuxi just listen to you." ”

"Then you hurry up and ask for a decree." Old Man Shen's tone was resolute.

"Okay, I'll go." Yin Yuxi hurriedly responded, nodded sideways towards Yindong, and then looked at Shen Ruoting, "Brother-in-law, don't hurry up and help Master Shen to the backyard to rest." ”

Shen Ruoting took Master Shen's arm with a clear face, and was about to walk towards the apse, but stopped after taking two steps, and instructed Leng Xi, "You help your father go back to Qinghua Garden first." After speaking, he chased after Yin Yuxi with brisk steps.

Yin Yuxi had already come to the gate of the mansion and was about to get into the carriage, but was stopped by Shen Ruoting, "Yuxi, you don't have to be in such a hurry to enter the palace. Father, he was just impulsive, it's so late, you go back to the Cloud Pavilion to rest first, and we'll talk about this tomorrow. ”

"Shen Ruoting, you have been single for the county lord's mansion, I owe you Yinyuxi, I will choose a virtuous and elegant wife for you with the emperor." Yin Yuxi smiled, but the smile was endlessly bitter, she turned her head and left a sentence, "You're right, you and I are just brother and sister, I shouldn't be greedy." ”

"Jade Breath ......" watched Yin Yuxi get into the carriage without looking back, Shen Ruoting's heart was uncomfortable at that moment, but the words hovering in his throat never came out, but quietly watched the carriage go farther and farther, and finally disappeared into the night.

Today is the fifth day of the fourth month, the emperor will go to Kunning Palace early to accompany the queen for dinner, Yin Yuxi is familiar with the road through the Jiaotai Palace to the front of Kunning Palace, the virtuous father-in-law is at the door of the main hall inside, saw Yin Yuxi, and hurriedly walked out.

Yin Yuxi said bluntly, "The county lord has something urgent to see the emperor, but I don't know if the emperor is convenient now?" ”

The virtuous father-in-law had a smile on his face, "The emperor said that the county lord doesn't have to be so restrained when he comes to the palace, you can come in with the old slave." The virtuous father-in-law went straight into the main hall with the silver jade breath, walked to the light curtain, and said, "Your Majesty, the lord of the jade seat asks to see you." ”

The bright yellow figure inside was obviously stunned, and then laughed, "Let my aunt in." ”

The two palace maids lifted the curtain, and Yin Yuxi walked in, and saw the emperor and the queen each sitting on the soft collapse, and there was a wine jug on the desk in the middle, and she saluted the two, "Yuxi participates in the emperor, the queen." ”

The queen also got up and saluted the jade breath and sat down again.

"My aunt came to see me so late, what's the hurry?" The emperor leaned lazily on the soft cushion, his eyes fell on Yin Yuxi, and without waiting for Yin Yuxi to speak, he waved his hand and ordered, "Tiange, move a soft stool for the county lord of Yuxi, and let my aunt stand and talk like this, it really makes me a little uncomfortable." ”

The palace maid Tiange moved the soft stool over, and Yin Yuxi sat elegantly, and said unhurriedly, "Yuxi came to the palace to disturb so late, and I hope that the emperor and the queen are not strange." "The etiquette silver jade breath that should be there will not be saved," the jade breath came to ask the emperor for an order. Please ask the emperor to issue a holy decree, let all the official women in the capital go to the Qianqing Palace tomorrow, and ask the emperor to set up a family affair for Yuxi's brother-in-law. ”

Hearing this, the emperor and the queen glanced at each other, both of them were very puzzled, the emperor pursed his lips and thought about it, then waved his hand to let all the people inside retreat, and then asked, "Auntie, are you talking about anger?" ”

"Your Majesty, what Yuxi said is not angry. Yuxi had already had the idea of finding a favorite person for her brother-in-law, but there were too many things happening these days, and her brother-in-law didn't agree. So that after a long time, the things between Yuxi and her brother-in-law became more and more undecent, Yuxi thought about it, and asked the emperor to make an order, so that Yuxi and her brother-in-law could also avoid suspicion of each other. Yin Yuxi lowered her head the whole time when she said this, but she could hear her deliberately hidden feelings just by her tone.

The inner sanctum fell silent for a long time.

After a long time, the queen's red lips opened lightly, breaking the silence, "Your Majesty, what the county lord of Yuxi said is right. It's always not good for the two of them to go on like this, it's better to go their separate ways, and after a long time, the relationship between the two will fade. ”

"Good. I promise you, I hope you don't regret it. "But there is always room for maneuver in things, and the emperor refrained from saying this sentence in the latter sentence, once he said it, he gave Yin Yuxi hope, "I will make an order tomorrow morning." Well, it's so late, you should go back too. As he spoke, he picked up his glass.

Yin Yuxi's bright eyes flickered, and the corners of her mouth pulled out an ugly smile, "Your Majesty...... Can the emperor send me off? ”

The emperor was a little surprised, but he still got up and walked out with Yin Yuxi, and the two walked out of Kunning Palace side by side, and Yin Yuxi asked, "Cheng Jiaxing, Shen Ruoting said that you gave me that military power as a dowry, is this true?" ”

The emperor shrugged his shoulders, feeling a little ashamed in his heart, "Naturally, it's true." Then he put his hand on Yin Yuxi's shoulder and comforted, "I know that the Chengwang Mansion has dealt with it all because of this matter in the past few days, but I can't either, the ministers in the court are eyeing the military power, so I came up with this strategy, and I hope my aunt won't be angry." ”

"You came up with it?" Yin Yuxi subconsciously felt that this kind of bad idea was proposed by Luan Yi.

"Isn't it also for your good, you are a county lord with no power or power, I really want to take this as your dowry, and when you get married, you will not be bullied by others." The emperor did not answer Yin Yuxi's words positively, but it can be regarded as dispelling Yin Yuxi's doubts.

Yin Yuxi pouted, "Okay, then I should still thank the emperor." ”

"Alright, let's go back quickly. I've been reviewing the day's work, but I'm tired. After the emperor finished speaking, he pretended to snort.

"Okay, the emperor should have a good rest. I won't bother you and the Queen. How could Yin Yuxi not see his "intention to drive away", and he also left with a perfunctory gift.

The emperor returned to Kunning Palace, sighed again and again after sitting down, and said to the queen, "To say, if Shen Ruoting doesn't have a little affection for Yin Yuxi, I don't believe it, otherwise Shen Ruoting has not married for so many years, Shen Ruoting is so smart that he can't even understand his feelings, or does he have any scruples?" "It's something he's been figuring out.

The queen took a sip of the wine glass, her cheeks were already red, "The concubine also thinks that this Lord Shen is not a person who follows the rules, if you really care about any gossip, you can ask the emperor for marriage." He couldn't help but sigh and shook his head, "Xu is Shen Ruoting, who really has a brother-sister relationship with the Yuxi County Lord." ”

"Okay, leave them alone." The emperor shook his head and picked up his wine glass, "Let's not get drunk today." ”

On the vertical day, the sky was dark, and it rained again after a while.

The emperor's decree to choose a wife for Lord Shen soon spread throughout the capital, and the ladies in the famous mansions in the capital were eager to try, after all, Lord Shen was the only son of Shen Youcai, the richest man in Jiangcheng, and an official of the imperial court. This time it was different, I heard that it was the lord of Yuxi who entered the palace overnight to ask for a decree, and it seems that the lord of Yuxi made a marriage contract.

Only Yin Yuxi hid in the Cloud Piercing Pavilion and fell quietly, listening to the sound of the rain ticking outside.

In the Qianqing Palace, the emperor sat on a high position, looking at the group of women below, he really had a headache, so he had to take advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to the main hall, standing on the white jade steps, and watching the raindrops keep falling. No, a red shadow appeared in his eyes, and the corners of the emperor's lips unconsciously bloomed with a relaxed smile, staring at Luan Yi with a red oil-paper umbrella and gradually approaching.

"The minister greets the emperor." Luan Yi bowed his head.

The emperor shook his head with a smile and pointed inside, "You came just in time, I don't think the woman inside is annoying." You just went in to help Master Shen and help her choose a good wife. ”

Hearing this, Luan Yi's charming black eyes turned into a bit of purity, and his red lips rippled with a dazzling smile, "It's not that the emperor hasn't chosen a concubine, how can I do this." If it spreads, it may make the county lord of Yuxi hate me even more. Nunu mouthed, looking not very happy.

"You, you wish you were unhappy to see Yuxi, otherwise you wouldn't have come here today to see the joke." The emperor glared at Luan Yi and pushed him, "You should help me, go and choose a candidate for Lord Shen, otherwise it will be delayed for a long time, I will have to keep you in the Qianqing Palace tonight, and you won't be able to go to the Soft Fragrance Pavilion." ”

Luan Yi's fair-skinned and delicate facial features showed a bit of playfulness, "Since the emperor has said so." That minister will not fail in his mission. After speaking, he swaggered into the Qianqing Palace.

The emperor shook his head and smiled, this Luan Yi, although he has a romantic temperament and loves smoke and dust women, but he is the most popular.

It was close to noon, and all the ladies in the Qianqing Palace dispersed one after another.

In the Cloud Piercing Pavilion, Yin Yuxi was about to fall asleep when she looked at the book, nodded and accidentally hit the table, she bared her teeth in pain, and threw her hand to the ground, "I can't see it at all, forget it, I still don't read it." ”

Hua Luo covered her mouth and picked up the book with a smile, "County Lord, although you said that there is a golden house in this book, the slave maid thinks that you are not born to read books, so don't read it in the future." With your temperament, you can't see anything anymore. ”

"Yes, there were so many books in Shen Ruoting's study before, I felt upset as soon as I stepped in, let alone read them one by one." Yin Yuxi inexplicably felt a little upset,

"Forget it, put those books away." She originally thought that Shen Ruoting had told her that if she wanted to learn to be smart and read some books, then she would take a look at it more, but now that she looks, it's okay.

Speaking of Shen Ruoting, she couldn't help asking, "Is there any news in the palace?" ”

Hua Luo grinned, turned her head and motioned for Yindong, who was standing outside the door, to come in, Yindong walked in slowly, arched his fist and said, "If you go back to the county lord, Lord Shen has already returned to the house." The subordinates heard that it was Lord Luan who chose Lord Shen for Lord Shen, and it was Yuan Chupei, the sister of the original concubine. ”
