Chapter 923: Cold Monarch

The leading elite soldiers looked at them cautiously, and ordered them to open the food boxes one by one, and carefully inspected the food inside before letting them in one by one.

"Wait a minute, these two, what's going on?"

Bai Su stood behind Lin Mengya, and at this time, the bodies of the two people were also tense.

The little hand secretly clenched the food box, but his face became more and more pretended to be panicked.

"My lord, the road is slippery on a snowy day, and the two of them are the new little palace maids in the imperial dining room, and they fell off without paying attention under their feet. When they go back, the slaves and maids will punish them. ”

The leading palace maid was calm and immediately opened her mouth to explain.

scolded the two of them a few more words, Lin Mengya and Bai Su made a panicked look at the right time, and the elite soldiers who were in charge of checking at the door looked at the two of them, their hair was wet and sticky on their faces, and they didn't dare to wipe their bags, and the little doubt in their hearts was also eliminated.

turned over his hand, but snatched the food box from the hand of a palace maid in front of him.

Lin Mengya and the others could see clearly just now that there was a pot of wine warm in a small copper basin.

The palace maid subconsciously wanted to take it back, but the big palace maid who had relieved them just now quickly grabbed the little palace maid's hand.

"It's freezing cold, and it's hard for you to be on duty. A-Ning, leave the mutton pot in your hand for you to warm up. ”

The little palace maid with the pot immediately complied, and the guards on duty grinned when they saw their sensible filial piety.

But that's the only way to do it, and even more extreme things, I'm afraid they don't dare to do it at the moment.

"Okay, you hurry up and send it in, Your Majesty is in a hurry, and you can't afford it."

Lin Mengya deliberately took a look at this big palace maid, she had been in this palace for some time, and she had seen a lot of forces from all sides, but she felt a little blind to this character.

Although that one was also dressed as an ordinary palace maid, her face was a little different from the others.

Although the women who can serve in the palace are not all beauties, at least they are also beautiful.

For example, the big palace maid, her appearance is still Zhouzheng, but the most provocative thing is that calm and calm temperament.

As if sensing that someone was looking at her, the big palace maid turned around and just glanced at them standing at the back.

Just a glance, no sound, no eye contact.

But Lin Mengya knew that in fact, she and Bai Su had already been recognized by that person.

He lowered his head, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Interesting, it seems that this big palace maid is really not simple.

"Your Majesty, the slaves and maids are here to deliver food."

Entering the door of the imperial study and walking to the door of the East Warm Pavilion, the palace maid said respectfully.

After a while, a voice came from inside.

But it was the prince who was beside His Majesty, who was waiting closely, poked his head out and looked.

After confirming that it was only the palace people who came to deliver the meal, he took the food box from the hands of the palace maids with a cold face.

Immediately, it was her turn and Bai Su, these two people were also calm, and handed the food box to the hands of the prince with low eyebrows, and the latter did not change in the slightest.

Lin Mengya suddenly felt that those who could survive in this palace must be actors and actresses with excellent acting skills.

Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't live for more than three days.

"Those two, how did they come empty-handed?"

The prince stood at the door and asked in an unkind tone.

Those shrewd eyes slipped on the body of the palace maid who was robbed of the food box.

Even if he and his master have become caged birds now, the power of the past is still there.

The two little palace maids immediately knelt down, one of them slammed his head on the ground, and shouted softly and weakly for forgiveness and forgiveness.

"It's the negligence of the slave and maid, please punish the father-in-law."

At the critical moment, the big palace maid was not busy shirking her responsibilities.

The prince's inexplicable eyes turned to the palace maid again.

What a man he was, and how could he have hidden these things from him.

It's just that now Longyou is being played by shrimp in shallow water, and the tiger is bullied by dogs in Pingyang.

Those dog minions always think that their masters can win.

At the moment, he was a little helpless, and waved his hand angrily.

"In the future, you will also think about it a little longer, alas, forget it. Except for the two of them who stayed to serve the meal, everyone else should go first. ”

The prince seemed to be in a very bad mood, so it seemed that he was unintentional, and he clicked on Lin Mengya and Bai Su.

"Yes, you two must be careful, don't offend Tianyan."

The palace maid saluted, and after instructing the two of them a few words, she left the imperial study with the rest of the palace maids.

Lin Mengya peeked at the man's back, but she was thinking in her heart.

In this situation, this big palace maid can still come and go freely, but I am afraid that she is a powerful figure.

But I don't know to whom that man's loyalty is given.

"You two should be careful with our family, and if you disobey Your Majesty's wishes, be careful of your lives."

Even though there were only three of them left here, the prince still didn't show any flaws.

Lin Mengya and Bai Su nodded submissively, just like two trembling little palace maids.

With the prince carrying the food box, he stepped into the gate of the East Warm Pavilion.

Here, it used to be the most important mind of Dajin.

All the people of the Great Jin Dynasty worship this place as a fairy cave.

But now, this place is cold, and the gray and oppressive light makes people's mood slide down rapidly.

And Emperor Jin Yuan, the emperor who was still in high spirits yesterday, was in a state of mind at the moment, slumped on the dragon chair behind the wide desk.

The appearance of the Long family has always been very outstanding.

Her husband is already a rare and beautiful man in the world, otherwise, he would not have seduced all kinds of beauties and wanted to die for him.

But half of everything in Long Tianyu was inherited from this man.

Therefore, even though Emperor Jin Yuan is over fifty years old, his appearance is similar to that of a person in his thirties and forties.

It is the image of a beautiful uncle who is noble and domineering.

If you put it in modern times, it is definitely the type of little girls, crying and shouting to pounce.

But now, even if he is still wearing a dragon robe, he still sits on the throne.

is a person, but he has long lost his original demeanor.

It's like a gem that has completely lost its brilliance.

Lin Mengya's heart couldn't help but rise with a feeling of regret.

A moment later, she forcibly dispersed again.

Because Emperor Jin Yuan was able to have what happened today, it was completely his own doing.

That saying is good, but you will not live if you do your own evil.

"Your Majesty, the princess is here."

As soon as he entered the warm pavilion, the prince seemed to be a different person.

Hurriedly took the food box in the hands of Lin Mengya and Bai Su, walked quickly to the side of Emperor Jin Yuan, and said in a low voice.

"Well, is she here?"

Emperor Jin Yuan's voice was a little weak, and the eyes that had been slightly closed slowly opened.

After seeing Lin Mengya in front of her, she only smiled slightly bitterly.

"Kid, let you see what you shouldn't."

With just one sentence, Lin Mengya understood what he meant.

sneered in his heart, but on his face, he made a sad look.

"Your Majesty, how dare they-"

The second half of the sentence was interrupted by the sigh of Emperor Jin Yuan.

"Alas, I, the emperor, really have no eyes. The rebel son had already saved his disobedient thoughts, but I was thinking about the love between father and son, and I was affectionate to his subordinates many times. But that rebel son covets my country! ”

After saying this, Emperor Jin Yuan was already angry.

Thinking about the prince's rebellion, it was really inserted into the emperor's heart.

Lin Mengya couldn't sympathize with him anymore.

The prince is not good, but he was also taught by his father.

Perhaps at the beginning, when His Majesty was appointed as the prince, he was indeed coerced by those families and old ministers.

But the more important reason is that he wants to stabilize his country.

For the sake of his country, he can secretly connive at his wife and murder the wives of loyal ministers.

For the sake of his country, he can also not care about his beloved woman and beloved son, and he has been framed again and again.

is also for the sake of his country, he can even show weakness and be imprisoned by his wife and son, but also accumulate strength in secret, and then regain control of the country.

Perhaps, being a monarch does require great wisdom and amazing courage.

But he can be so ruthless to himself, his wife and children, so how far can he sacrifice his country?

At the end of the day, he still loves himself the most and loves his ambition the most.

If he hadn't ordained the crown prince early for expediency.

If he seriously cultivates a prince with mediocre qualifications for the sake of the country, how can he be a virtuous monarch.

instead of following the prince's vicious mother and doing evil together.

did not forcibly break up the Lin family in order to appease those neutral families.

I'm afraid that Emperor Jin Yuan will not end up like this.

But he just did it, and he was high-sounding and triumphant.

That's why he ended up today, and he can't complain about others.

Even so, he is still deliberately showing weakness, acting in a show of weakness that no one will believe except him.

It's just that he wants to win himself, like his father back then, for his liver and brain.

It's a pity that she Lin Mengya can learn everything quickly, but she can't learn to be blind and blind for the country and the king.

Whoever pits her, she will come back a hundredfold and a thousandfold.

This is her way of life, and it is also her temper.

Okay, isn't it just a competition for acting, who is afraid of whom?

"Your Majesty, don't be so discouraged. I've heard from people outside that Prince Yu is fighting alone to get you out. So, be sure to stick to it. Otherwise, the prince's efforts would be in vain. ”

Lin Mengya deliberately said that only Long Tianyu was working hard.

And the reason why she dared to say such nonsense was because His Majesty's contact with the outside world had already been cut off by the crown prince.

The current situation is that the prince's people really can't rush in.

Because there are many masters around His Majesty, I am afraid that it will take a lot of strength to break through.
