Zhong Ling sat on the stone by the lake, then leaned down, stretched out his hand and scooped a handful of water from the lake, ready to send it to his mouth.

Bai Qingqing was surprised, and hurriedly said, "What are you doing here?" There's water on the table and you don't want to drink? ”

After Zhong Ling drank it into her mouth, she smashed it a few times, and said leisurely: "I want to know if the water in this lake has become salty." After saying that, he smiled at him strangely.

Bai Qingqing said humbly: "I didn't cry again!" ”

Zhong Ling wiped her mouth, pursed her lips and smiled: "My brother is worried about me," After speaking, he shook off the water with both hands, put them on his knees, and his eyes sank, "Seeing that my brother had tears in his eyes because he was worried about me, Zhong Ling's heart was pinched......"

The reflection of Zhong Ling in the lake reflected his sparkling eyebrows.

"How can there be ......" Bai Qingqing turned around, and Nuo Nuo said, "It's just that too many things have happened recently, and you are adding chaos again, and I am anxious." ”

Bai Qingqing knew how miserable his quibbles were, so he changed his tone and said with a serious face: "Is it difficult for the imperial brother to be for you?" How the hell are you? ”

Zhong Ling said leisurely: "I'm not doing well now,"

Bai Qingqing was puzzled: "He is not difficult for you?" It's impossible, isn't this like the emperor's doing? ”

Zhong Ling turned her head, raised her chin and said proudly: "The emperor is not embarrassed for me, but I am embarrassed for him!" ”

"What? What do you mean by that? Bai Qingqing was very puzzled.

Zhong Ling got up: "I told your imperial brother that if you let me marry his sister, you can, but you have to promise me one condition." ”

Bai Qingqing had no direction for a while, and hurriedly asked, "What conditions do you want him to promise you?" ”

Zhong Ling hugged her hands on her chest and said very confidently: "I asked him to release Prince Nanrong, the seventh brother who my brother is very worried about......"

Bai Qingqing was stunned, thought for a moment, and suddenly thought about it, suddenly got up, pointed at him and said with a smile: "Ao, you kid, you are too cunning!" ”

Seeing that Bai Qingqing finally smiled, Zhong Ling smiled slightly: "Brother, this is praising me." ”

Bai Qingqing happily patted him on the shoulder: "You are really smart, letting the imperial brother let go of the seventh brother is actually to let him give up Gao Lan, how can he give up easily with the character of the imperial brother, so he can't embarrass you, he has to embarrass himself, this choice is enough for him to be nerve-wracking." ”

After saying that, the two laughed.

After a while, Bai Qingqing suddenly stopped laughing: "What if...... In case the imperial brother really plans to give up Gao Lan, you ...... How are you prepared? He looked at Zhong Ling worriedly.

The smile on Zhong Ling's face stopped abruptly: "No...... No, he doesn't have a soft spot for that high blue, and he's bound to win! ”

Bai Qingqing raised his eyebrows and said: "That's not necessarily, the imperial brother's mind is as deep as the sea, and no one can fully understand it." ”

"Ahh Zhong Ling panicked and wailed, "Then what should I do, I don't want to marry your thirteenth sister!" ”

Seeing this, Bai Qingqing smiled dismally: "However, since you have already said so, it is more cost-effective to exchange you for Seventh Brother and Gao Lan's freedom." In the future, you can still follow the thirteenth sister and call me brother. ”

"My brother doesn't blush when he tells lies, and my brother definitely doesn't think like this in his heart." Zhong Ling said angrily.

Bai Qingqing felt that this was really a good idea: "I have to let the thirteen put a lot of pressure on the imperial brother." ”

Zhong Ling showed a complaining look: "Ah, no, brother, you are real, you really want to sacrifice me." ”

"Don't worry, for the sake of my sister's happiness, I won't be like this, of course, I, as an older brother, also hope that my sister will find someone who really likes her. Let's get past the current level first, and we'll make it clear to Thirteen then, and let her take the initiative to give up on you. But now you still have to take advantage of her feelings for you, after all, the royal brother cherishes this sister very much. Heck, that's a great way to kill two birds with one stone. ”

The more Bai Qingqing thought about it, the more excited he became, and then pulled Zhong Ling's arm, "You are really a good brother of my brother." ”

Zhong Ling showed a Chu Chu smile: "Brother, I want to cry when you praise me." ”

Bai Qingqing sneered: "Don't worry, I hope this matter is happy, but I will wronged you for the time being." ”

……

The emperor was quiet for a long time before he spoke: "Ding Quan, how do you say I should make a trade-off?" This Zhong Ling really gave me a good problem. ”

Ding Quan said slowly: "Your Majesty, it's better to follow the wishes of the thirteenth princess and Miss Gao...... Let's think about it in the long run. ”

"Think about it in the long run! Do you know how hard I've waited? When I went to Jincui Pavilion that day, I couldn't help but think of the girl's voice and smile, and the way she played the piano and drank on the roof, and my heart was crying! You don't know, you don't know! After the emperor was hysterical for a while, his face became sad, "No matter how sad I am, how sad I am, I have to restrain myself, because I am the emperor and the lord of the world, but I am also a man, and I am also a man of flesh and blood......"

Ding Quan hurriedly knelt on the ground: "The old slave should die, he shouldn't talk too much, he won't understand the emperor's hard work, the slave should die!" ”

"Thirteen is rare to ask me for a person, and I have already promised her a wishful husband, but ......" The emperor was indignant.

Seeing Ding Quan, who was still kneeling there: "You get up, go down, I'm tired......"

Ding Quan got up slowly, his face was also full of hardship.

The emperor suddenly stopped him: "Wait, bring me a pot of wine......"

Ding Quan was stunned, the emperor never drank alcohol when he was alone.

Seeing that he was stunned, the emperor shouted: "Don't go quickly!" ”

After a while, Ding Quan served a pot of wine and a few side dishes.

"Let's get rid of the food, I just want to drink, you all retreat, don't come in, I want to be alone and stay quiet." The emperor's voice became deeper and deeper.

Ding Quan ordered to retreat.

As night fell, the moonlight poured in through the window.

The emperor poured himself a glass of wine, got up with the wine glass, and said to the bright moon outside the window: "Girl, where are you now?" I really miss you...... I went to Jincui Pavilion, but when I entered the courtyard, I couldn't help but miss you, I didn't have the courage to go in any further, I always felt that if I didn't go in to see, you would be in the house forever...... I'm stupid, right, I don't even feel like myself anymore. With that, he tilted his head and slid a glass of wine down his throat.

Then he stared at the empty wine glass in his hand: "I rarely drink, because I have to stay awake at all times, but tonight I don't want to be so sober, I only think about you, Lan'er, I don't want to give up on you," the emperor's eyes flowed, "But I am the emperor's brother of Thirteen, and the Zhao family owes the Queen Mother and Thirteen too much, and I want to make up for them." I know that you are reluctant to let you stay by my side, and after thinking about it, I have to let you go after all......"

The emperor thought, the wine is one cup after another.
