Chapter 124
She remembered what Li Guiyi had said before pushing herself into the water: "The emperor has lived in my palace for several months. But he never pampered me. On the surface, I am glorious. Pet crown six houses. But all he thinks about is you. You say how damn you are. As long as you're dead.......... "I had been wrong about him all along. Lu Xin thought sweetly in her heart. She raised her hand and was about to caress Xuanyuanrui's handsome face. Unexpectedly, Xuanyuan Rui grabbed the slender jade hand with one hand. Lu Xin forgot for a moment that all those who practiced martial arts had a keen sense of touch. How could he not wake him up with such an action? She was so frightened that she was about to retract her hand. saw Xuanyuan Rui holding his hand and still closing his eyes. Lu Xin looked at him curiously again. I thought, "Haven't you woken up yet?"
Then. Xuanyuan Rui lightly grabbed Lu Xin's slender hand and stroked his face. His eyes were slightly closed. He said, "Don't leave me again."
After listening to Lu Xin. Whispered: "Hmm". The sweetness of the once loved one is back again. Xuanyuan Rui opened his eyes and looked at Lu Xin. The two looked at each other and smiled. Sleep in a hug and affection.
The next day. The entire palace was crazy about how Lu Xin went from being snubbed by the emperor to regaining favor. For a time, the whole palace was in an uproar. Versions vary. The more it spreads, the more it becomes deified.
Since Xuanyuan Rui and Lu Xin released their previous suspicions. After rebuilding the old one. No matter how busy Xuanyuan Rui is, he also finds time to accompany Lu Xin. All three meals should be eaten with Lu Xin. No matter how late the review is made, you have to drive the Phoenix Palace to sleep with it.
One night. Lu Xin was sullenly thinking about things in the Phoenix Palace. Xiaoxuan walked over and reported: "Miss." It's time for us to go to the Qinzheng Palace to bring ginseng tea to the emperor. This time. The emperor is estimated to be tired from reading the recitals. ”
After listening to Lu Xin. smiled and said, "You will feel sorry for people." Of course I knew he was tired. I don't want to go over so early just to not distract him. You can finish your politics early. ”
Xiaoxuan disagreed. She said, "Yes, yes." Whatever the young lady says, it makes sense. If it's late. Maybe she will be the first to board. ”
Lu Xin said with confidence: "If he dares to drink the ginseng tea served by others." Then we won't send it in the future. ”
Xiao Xuan said: "You just have to keep your mouth shut." If that's the case. See if you send it or not. ”
Lu Xin always gets carried away when her feelings are sweet. It was she who really forgot. Or she didn't want to think about it. Whenever Xiao Xuan reminded her in front of her that Xuanyuan Rui didn't belong to her alone. She will have a feeling of waking up from a dream. She would think of all the faces of the harem concubines. This made her feel helpless.
Lu Xin didn't want to listen to Xiaoxuan's nagging anymore. Then he said, "Okay, okay." Let's go now. ”
Xiao Xuan listened. Said happily: "Miss is wise."
Lu Xin glanced at Xiaoxuan. said: "It will be a good job."
Lu Xin was late. It's really unfortunate to be said by Xiao Xuan. When they came to the Qinzheng Hall with ginseng tea. I already saw a slim girl standing next to Xuanyuan Rui waiting for tea. Because Lu Xin got Xuanyuan Rui's permission. You can directly enter the Qinzheng Hall without notification. So. At this time, the two people in the hall did not notice Lu Xin's arrival. When Lu Xin and the others stepped into the hall, they finally attracted the attention of Xuanyuan Rui and the girl. I saw that the girl immediately walked in front of Lu Xin. Said happily: "Sister Xin." You're finally here. The emperor has been waiting. ”
The girl is the youngest of the harem concubines. Since coming to Yu Liguo with the team, he has also been canonized. Lived in the harem all the time. He rarely had contact with Lu Xin. But Wan Ji has known and understood Lu Xin on the way back to China. But I was impressed. To the point of worshippers.
Lu Xin smiled and said, "Hehe." It turned out that Wan'er was also there. ”
Wan Ji smiled innocently at Lu Xin. The mouth said, "Hmm." Yes. I suddenly thought of coming to deliver ginseng tea to the emperor tonight. And so it came. ”
Lu Xin listened to Wan Ji without pretentiousness. He didn't hide his words. I was embarrassed in my heart. Thinking about the ginseng tea that Xiao Xuan was still holding in her hand. I don't know whether to advance or retreat at this time.
Then. Xuanyuan Rui said, "Xin'er is here to bring ginseng tea to me?"
Lu Xin suddenly looked up at Xuanyuan Rui. I saw him smile slightly. Lu Xin scolded in her heart: "Isn't this asking knowingly."
But Lu Xin still responded obediently: "Yes." The concubine is ready. ”
Xuanyuan Rui said, "Then bring it up."
Lu Xin listened. I was stunned again. I thought to myself, "Didn't he just finish drinking?" Also drink. ”
Wan Ji suddenly jumped up like a child. She said: "Then the emperor finished drinking Sister Xin's ginseng tea. Then comment on the difference between the ginseng tea we brewed. ”
Xuanyuan Rui not only did not refuse Wanji's childish words. Instead, he echoed her words and said, "Okay." Then I'll talk about it. ”
Lu Xin handed the ginseng tea to Xuanyuan Rui. Xuanyuan Rui took it. Take a sip first. Then I drank it all down.
Then Wan Ji asked, "Your Majesty." Say it quickly, say it quickly. Who's better. ”
Lu Xin looked at Wan Ji's excited appearance. remembered that if he was usually in the absence of outsiders, he would play with Xuanyuan Rui without scruples. But at this time. When she watched other girls play with Xuanyuan Rui like this. I really feel a little bad in my heart. It's like knocking over a five-flavor bottle.
Xuanyuan Rui looked at Lu Xin and said, "The ginseng tea brewed by Wan'er has a strong flavor and a mellow taste. Refreshing. Lift your spirits. Xin'er's ginseng tea is indeed a thought. Fresh and fragrant in the mouth. Slightly sweet. It's tongue-wrenching. Memorable. ”
After listening to Xuanyuan Rui's words. There was a winner and a loser. She asked again, "Which one does the emperor think is better?"
Xuanyuan Rui and Lu Xin didn't expect Wanji to be so serious about wanting to judge the winner. Sure enough, she is still a girl who has not grown up. And she's a competitive girl. Xuanyuan Rui said, "I like to drink it."
Lu Xin listened to this. I had an idea in my heart. She thought to herself, "Even if the ginseng tea I make is delicious." After drinking it for a long time, I still want to change the taste. That's not what it means. ”
Wan Ji didn't ask any more questions. She saluted and said, "Then the concubine will retire first." Go back and work harder to make a better ginseng tea. ”
Xuanyuan Rui said, "Hmm. Stand down. ”
Wan Ji stepped back. Lu Xin stood beside Xuanyuan Rui and sharpened the ink for him. Xuanyuan Rui found that Lu Xin, who usually talked a lot, became very quiet tonight. He put down the pen in his hand. He hugged Lu Xin in his arms and asked, "Why don't you speak?"
Lu Xin looked up at Xuanyuan Rui and said, "I'm afraid I'll disturb you."
Xuanyuan Rui was about to kiss Lu Xin. was pressed against his chest by Lu Xin's hands. He frowned slightly. said: "Xin'er is angry. It's not for Wan'er's thing just now. ”
After listening to Lu Xin. I thought to myself: Is my mind so obvious? I guessed it. She said half-ashamedly, half-angrily, "No. How could I be angry with a child. "That being said. Lu Xin was indeed not very comfortable with what had just happened. Wanji may still be a child now. But a few years later. She couldn't imagine it anymore. But Xuanyuan Rui stared at his own thoughts. She still looked like she was beaten to death and didn't admit it. Then he plugged up the topic of what he had been worrying about recently.
Lu Xin said: "I miss the second brother." I don't know where he is. Whether it's okay or not. That's what I'm here for. ”
When Lu Xin said this. I can't help but feel guilty inside. She has not forgotten her original intention of coming to Yu Liguo in the first place. I didn't expect so many things to happen along the way. Twist the original idea into a thousand turns.
As the saying goes, the speaker has no intention. The listener is intentional. Lu Xin's words sounded particularly harsh to Xuanyuan Rui. It made him feel a sense of loss in his heart. He thought, "So she still cares about the past." She didn't come to Yu to establish the country because of me. Isn't it because of me that I'm staying now? He really wanted to ask her. But he couldn't ask. I can only comfort her. Let her stay by her side with peace of mind.
Xuanyuan Rui said to Lu Xin: "Xin'er don't worry. I've been sending people to secretly look for your second brother. Perhaps it will not be long before the turmoil has subsided. So he tried his best to hide himself. So. It's hard to find. ”
Lu Xin listened to his comforting words. I felt a little calmer. She said gratefully, "Thank you." Auspicious. In this world. Except for him. You are the only relative I can trust and rely on. ”
After Lu Xin finished speaking. Quietly leaned into Xuanyuan Rui's arms. The embrace made her feel warm. But. But I don't feel steady. It's like a floating cloud. It is easy to go with the wind. Since entering the palace. Lu Xin felt more and more that this relationship had completely deviated from her original intention. broke through his own psychological defense against feelings. Until one day. I can also calmly accept the situation of serving a husband with other women. She sighed. It's ridiculous that he seems to be sinking deeper and deeper. And slowly changing themselves to adapt to this situation. She felt helpless. She questioned whether this was the sadness of being in this era or whether she blamed herself for not being persistent enough in the concept of love.
Xuanyuan Rui hugged Lu Xin tightly and said, "This life." I will be a loved one that you can rely on and rely on. ”
Months. It's early spring in March. The season of the earth's recovery. The disaster of Yu Liguo has passed. The people were busy with the days of ploughing.
Inside the Xuanzheng Palace. All the ministers asked the emperor to make a queen. The ministers have been talking about this for half a month. But there has been no reply. The conditions for the election of the queen are in addition to virtuous and virtuous virtues. It is also necessary to have a prominent family background. The ministers also displayed a list of several concubines for the emperor's reference and selection. But Lu Xin's name was the only one on the list. Everyone knows. Lu Xinnai is Xuanyuan Rui's favorite. Her name was not on the list. This is how he responds to the minister. And for the views of the ministers, it is. The emperor's favor is favored. Conflicts of interest related to the community. You still can't be a queen just by the emperor's favor.
Xuanyuan Rui said: "This matter can be discussed later." If you have someone else to choose from, you can also play along. ”
