Chapter 126: The Emperor's Thoughts

When Ruoyun returned to the palace, it was only dawning, Xiaohong slept deeply and didn't get up at the moment, and she didn't know that she came back, let alone how dangerous Lu Dao was all night.

Ruoyun came back with a cold face, her clothes were not as upright as before she went out, the Zhu Hai on her head was crooked, and there were coagulated blood stains on her body.

When the people of the night vigil palace of Chaolu Palace saw her come back like this, their usual lazy appearance seemed to be replaced by solemnity, and they were busy with rules and regulations and stood in a row, all silent.

Ruoyun looked at the silence of the palace maids and eunuchs, as if facing great hostility, and suddenly felt very tired, went straight to the bedroom, and fell asleep after a simple freshening up.

The palace people looked at each other, Chaolu Palace was originally not very particular, but it was the first time that the master was so angry and ignored people, and they all bowed their heads to do things one by one, for fear that the master would really be angry and punish people.

Hu Shuer returned to the palace with Rong Jinhuan with joy, thinking that the emperor would hug her back to Qianyuan Palace, but when she arrived at the foot of Qianyuan Palace, she was supported back by Rong Jinhuan.

In fact, she didn't know how much she said at all, she only saw that the assassins were coming, and there was no danger, but now they were all happy, and their hearts were all on Rong Jinhuan. But Rong Jinhuan's words were indifferent, full of exhaustion, and she was not allowed to leak the slightest bit of the night attack on the palace, Hu Shu'er had no choice but to leave in a huff.

Ten days of rest and even the morning court was saved, and at noon, Rong Jinhuan took a nap and had some food.

Chang De saw that he had eaten very little but had already put down his chopsticks, his brows were furrowed, and he didn't know where to go, so he called a few times before he asked someone to remove the dishes and chopsticks, and sent the palace people to retreat, standing aside and not daring to squeak.

Rong Jinhuan pondered for a moment. After a while, he picked up the pen in front of the table and dipped the pen in ink, but the tip of the pen did not fall for a long time. I haven't written a word for a long time.

Seeing that the emperor's face was not only serious, but also a little sad, Changde couldn't help it, and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, but it's annoying?" Do you want to go for a walk in the Imperial Garden? ”

Rong Jinhuan was stunned, the pen slipped out of his hand and rolled for a while, and a long ink blot was dragged out of the white rice paper, and he came back to his senses. laughed at himself: "Yixuan's wedding, I should be happy."

Chang De looked at him and was not angry, and said cautiously again: "Your Majesty." The affairs of the palace were repeatedly instructed by the old slaves, and King Huai also said that the matter was done...... "His voice was hidden, and the so-called getting things done was nothing more than telling some people to shut up."

Rong Jinhuan nodded slowly, and his expression suddenly relaxed: "If it weren't for King Huai reminding me." The consequences are really serious. But even King Huai couldn't know who was behind it. At this rate, the expansion of the Qingping Sect is not a matter of vain, and I can't guarantee the safety of this palace, let alone other states and counties. ”

"Your Majesty...... Do you want to remove the palace guards again? Changde reminded.

"No......" Rong Jinhuan shook his hand and sneered, "It's nothing more than imperial power, nothing more than the country, I've long been used to it." No matter how much you change, it may not be too peaceful. As he spoke, he sighed, and was very melancholy.

Changde was silent. A few years ago, when the emperor was still the crown prince, he experienced the bloody storm of seizing power, and his old bones can watch all this to live until now, I have to say that the emperor is extraordinarily gracious, every time I think of this, in addition to gratitude, I actually break out in a cold sweat. But the emperor was raised by him since he was a child, and to this day he naturally understands his helplessness, and he also believes that the emperor is a generation of Ming monarchs.

"Your Majesty, do you want to go to the harsh/palace to relieve boredom?" Changde saw that the atmosphere was solemn, and pretended to make a relaxed smile.

Rong Jinhuan's face darkened, and he suddenly said angrily: "I don't want to see Su Ruoyun!" ”

"Hey, your majesty, there are not only virtuous concubines in the palace." Chang De wanted to look at the sky but didn't dare, so he could only hold back a smile, "Your Majesty, weren't you the most favored Mo Zhaoyi before?" ”

Rong Jinhuan was stunned, nodded hurriedly, and said, "Well, what you said is very true." It is rumored that Mo Zhaoyi came to my Qianyuan Palace, I don't want to go to the Hou/Palace! As he spoke, he bit down on the last half of the sentence.

"Yes! Mo Zhaoyi came to visit the emperor after the emperor's lunch, but she didn't want to disturb the emperor, so she had been waiting in the side hall for a long time. Changde was overjoyed when he saw him relieved, and hurriedly told the truth.

Rong Jinhuan's expression sank, and he waved his hand: "You go down and let her in." So saying, he picked up the book and sat down in the outer room.

"The concubine's Luoxia residence is stuffy and unbearable, but the emperor is still cool here." Chang Decai came out, Mo Zhaoyi stepped in while wiping his sweat, a plain pothos like a green leaf facing the wind, very out of place in the golden and brilliant Qianyuan Palace, a pair of resolute eyes are righteous and majestic, his face is calm and generous, more like a female official than a concubine.

Mo Xiaochen said, scanning the ice basins around the room, and only fell on Rong Jinhuan's face after the last time, and saluted: "The concubine sees the emperor, and the emperor is blessed." ”

Rong Jinhuan was very happy, threw away the fold and pulled her to sit beside him, and said with a smile: "I haven't been to you for a long time, but you have a grudge against me?" ”

Mo Xiaochen tugged at the corners of his mouth, but he didn't buy it, pulled down his face and said: "The concubine doesn't dare, as long as the emperor's palace doesn't talk to his father, the concubine has nothing else to ask for." ”

"Hmph, that old ...... He also reprimanded me for being extravagant and wasteful yesterday, is it difficult for my brother's big wedding to be shabby?! Rong Jinhuan showed a disgusted expression when he heard this, and the words "old horseman" almost blurted out, but he still smiled at her, "Xiaochen, you don't want to learn from him, I like your coolness, come and tell me about the recent events?" ”

Mo Xiaochen looked at him, his handsome face was sad, and although he looked at her, his eyes frequently moved away.

She smiled on her lips but smiled a little reluctantly, thinking that she was not because of the emperor's special grace, and she had nothing to do with this Qianyuan Palace to visit him, so she sighed lightly: "There has been nothing major recently, but the concubine wants to ask the emperor if anyone has cats and dogs?" ”

"Cats and dogs?" Rong Jinhuan frowned and pondered, and then denied it, "I haven't heard of anyone who has cats and dogs, what's the matter, it disturbed you?" ”

"No, it's that in recent days, there has been less food for the ladies of the palace, and the imperial dining room said that it was stolen by someone recently, so it was sent less. The few Persian goldfish that the concubines raised in the pond are also gone......" Mo Xiaochen covered his lips and added, "Sister Concubine De only said that the imperial dining room was lazy and did not do much, and punished them for working late, but the concubine felt a little unusual. ”

"Oh? Concubine De was careless, the meal never went wrong, and it didn't look like it was caused by laziness. Rong Jinhuan commented a few words, grabbed her waist, and comforted, "Don't worry, I will send someone to bring it to you next time I return to the Western Regions to pay tribute." ”

"This can't be blamed on Sister Defei, if it weren't for her busy turnaround, it wouldn't be the turn of the concubine to ask to see the emperor." Mo Xiaochen chuckled, but pushed him away.

What happened to Concubine De? Rong Jinhuan frowned, he had been busy dealing with attacks and riots in various places recently, and he hadn't asked about the harbour since that time when he removed the guards.

"Your Majesty, don't you know that Wu Meiren is sick?" Mo Xiaochen looked at him stunned, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "It's no wonder that the emperor has every opportunity, Wu Meiren has been depressed since the last time he fell into the water." Not long ago, I was sick and had a rash on my body, and the doctor said it was contagious. No, Concubine De also gave her a good morning, and was busy urging the sisters in the palace to wash and sun, and sent someone to ask King Huai for healing, but unfortunately there was no emperor's will, please don't move King Huai, and the people in the palace were panicked......"

"Why don't I know about such a big thing?!" Rong Jinhuan Huo Ran got up, but was pulled by Mo Xiaochen.

"Don't be busy, the emperor is just a matter of the past few days, Sister Wu is getting better today, the imperial doctor said that it is not a big problem, please let the emperor be relieved, it is better to go to the harbour / palace less recently." Mo Xiaochen smiled and said sincerely.

Rong Jinhuan breathed a sigh of relief, took her hand, and rubbed it apologetically: "That's good, you should care about each other in the back/palace, and Concubine De is busy with her, which can be regarded as sharing my worries." When it comes to meals, you're going to have to worry about it. ”

"Yes." Mo Xiaochen blessed his body, but when he saw Rong Jinhuan finish speaking, he looked away and thought about something.

"Changde!" Rong Jinhuan suddenly opened his mouth and called, and Chang De poked his head in.

"Go, distribute items to the palace maidens, and ask them to close the door in the near future. The heat is approaching, and the palace supplies some ice. Then assist Xiaochen to check the imperial dining room for me, if someone poisons it, it can be big or small! Saying that, Rong Jinhuan paused, as if he had made a difficulty, and finally said with difficulty, "Go and send someone to tell Su Ruoyun that she is not allowed to go anywhere except to come to the Qianyuan Palace to punish her kneel!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Changde replied loudly, seeing that the emperor looked strange, he hurriedly retreated.

"What's wrong with Concubine Xian, the emperor wants to punish her?" Seeing that he was angry, Mo Xiaochen reached out to caress his heart and smooth his breath for him.

Rong Jinhuan sat down abruptly and slammed the table: "Concubine Xian collided with me at the top of King Rong's Mansion yesterday, and she should be beheaded!" ”

"But the emperor didn't kill her." Mo Xiaochen's expression flashed with pain, and he broke it bluntly, "Not only that, but only punish kneeling, and don't let her move around in the back/palace more...... It seems that the emperor treats her differently. As he spoke, he couldn't laugh anymore.

Rong Jinhuan was stunned for a moment, then his embarrassment turned into annoyance, and he grabbed her wrist and raised it to himself: "Hugh is talking nonsense!" The harem is your most outspoken, but don't speak for others. ”

Mo Xiaochen's expression was lonely, but he still smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, do you know that except for your sisters, you have been going to Chaolu Palace the rest of the time?" What the emperor thinks in his heart, the concubines can see it. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm the one I want!" The word "love" finally didn't say it, Rong Jinhuan urgently kissed her on the lips and pressed her down on the couch.

Seeing him closing his eyes and hugging himself tightly, kissing eagerly and anxiously, and couldn't wait to reach into her clothes and peel off the layers of her clothes, Mo Xiaochen's heart moved, the familiar breath came to his nose, and his heart was sour, but he also closed his eyes.

Ruoyun had a rare good night's sleep, she slept until dinner from the time she returned to the palace, and she simply fell asleep again after eating, Xiaohong didn't know why, and others didn't dare to ask.

In the early morning, Xiaohong shook her awake violently, she stared at her with wide eyes, and said loudly: "Niangniang! Someone from Qianyuan Palace said to let Niangniang go to punish kneeling, and I couldn't ask those palace maids anything, what are you up to tell what's going on! (To be continued......)
