Lu Xin tried to hold Li Qingyuan's idea that he still had a trace of affection for him, just when Li Qingyuan was about to part his legs and wanted to advance. Lu Xin said calmly: "If the emperor must force me, then the emperor will always get only my people, but not my heart,......!"

Li Qingyuan listened, suddenly stopped his movements, looked at Lu Xin's extremely firm expression, and then looked at Lu Xin's body that had been tossed to the point of bruising by himself, and his heart instantly softened.

He thought, "How can I suddenly become so despicable to win a woman's heart?" Xin'er loves herself, she just can't accept her identity for a while, and she shouldn't break her heart because of a moment of anger. ”

Lu Xin saw Li Qingyuan staring at him blankly, as if he was moved by his words.

Li Qingyuan pondered and wandered between thoughts and actions, and he finally withdrew from Lu Xin. As if relieved, Lu Xin quickly pulled the silk to cover her body and nestled in the corner of the bed. She looked like she was facing a great enemy, and she was frightened and afraid that Li Qingyuan would pounce on her again if he regretted it.

Li Qingyuan got up and tidied up his clothes, and said to Lu Xin slowly: "I can leave you alone for the time being, you can meditate here behind closed doors, and if you figure it out, I will come again." After saying that, he walked away without looking back.

After Li Qingyuan returned to the palace, he was not interested in state affairs all day, and all of Lu Xin's demeanor appeared in his mind one by one, lingering. He didn't expect Lu Xin's temper to be so stubborn and not understand him so much. As an emperor, he has some things that he must do, and he can't be bound by the personal feelings of his children.

He thought, "Xin'er, even if you hate me so much and can't understand me, as long as time goes by, you will definitely be able to see my sincerity towards you." Li Qingyuan thought, all the unhappiness just wait for time to dilute it.

Gonggong Ming has been by the emperor's side for a long time, and he has never seen the emperor so angry with a woman. This also shows that the emperor really likes that Miss Xin'er like this.

Gonggong Ming thought: "Where can anyone in this world refuse the emperor?" This Miss Xin'er either has eaten the gall of the bear's heart and leopard, or she is missing the roots of her brain, she doesn't want to put this great glory and wealth, she has to go against the emperor, isn't this equivalent to holding a knife on her neck and finding her own way to die? ”

He knew that the emperor was worried that Miss Xin'er's resentment against the emperor could not be eliminated, so he wanted to offer advice and ask for merit and rewards, and he also saw the emperor's true feelings for Miss Xin'er, so he wanted to try to share the emperor's worries.

Father-in-law Ming said: "Your Majesty, what do you like about Miss Xin'er?" It's better to do what he likes, let the slave send it in person, maybe the anger will disappear, and he will figure it out. ”

At this time, the guard Mai Feng walked in, and after saluting the emperor, he said, "Your Majesty, this is the brocade box that Miss Xin'er threw on the ground, and her subordinates sent it to the emperor."

Li Qingyuan hurriedly took it, looked at the poems inscribed on the brocade box, and felt sad in his heart, he silently recited:

"The sky is not old, the love is inexorable, the heart is like a double wire net, and there are thousands of knots."

He immediately opened the brocade box, took out a scarf from it that was not of the highest quality, and looked carefully at the big trees and flowers embroidered on the scarf and pondered.

He thought: "This is Xin'er's love and expectation for herself, hoping that she can protect her like a tree sheltering a small flower from the wind and rain, she loves herself so much, but she deceived her, and almost did something to hurt her today."

Li Qingyuan suddenly felt ashamed of Lu Xin in his heart.

Seeing that the emperor had just listened to his words, Gonggong Ming was happy in his heart. He continued: "The emperor is in charge of Wanji, and it is inevitable that he does not know much about his daughter's family, but the slave understands, the slave knows, please allow the slave to share the emperor's worries."

Li Qingyuan listened to Ming's father-in-law's words, seemed to see a glimmer of hope, and said to Ming's father-in-law: "Okay, if my father-in-law can win Miss Xin'er's favor for me, I will be rewarded."

Gonggong Ming was immediately overjoyed: "Your Majesty, the servants will definitely do their best to solve problems for the emperor."

Gonggong Ming thought to himself: "The emperor doesn't understand women's preferences, so he naturally feels very difficult, he has been wandering in the harem all the year round, don't you know the set of ideas in women's hearts?" This Miss Xin'er probably relied on the emperor's great favor to her, so she dared to disobey the emperor like this. Maybe you're regretting it in the General's Mansion now? After such an easy errand is done, won't the emperor reward himself heavily? The more he thought about it, the happier he became.

The next day, Gonggong Ming took a group of palace people to Qianzhuyuan with all kinds of pearls, agate, gemstones, gold hairpins and snacks, and presented the gifts in the lobby one by one, making Xiaoxuan's eyes shine.

Gonggong Ming bent down and said politely to Lu Xin: "Miss Xin'er, these are all sent to Miss by the emperor's minions, and they are a piece of the emperor's heart!" Please take it! ”

Lu Xin only glanced at the pile of gold, silver and jewelry, and said with no joy on her face: "Take it, I'm not rare."

Gonggong Ming was stunned on the spot when he heard this, these are the rare treasures that the vassal kings from all over the country pay tribute every year, and the treasures that can only be rewarded by concubines of the level in the palace, he has carefully selected them before deciding to send them, but this Miss Xin'er actually said that it is not rare?

Father-in-law Ming said flatteringly: "Miss Xin'er, these are all rare treasures for tribute, which were carefully selected by the slaves in the treasury and sent over, please Miss Xin'er accept them."

After hearing this, Lu Xin sneered at Gonggong Ming's words and said, "This is the emperor's intention?" Take these things from you and leave for me. After finishing speaking, Lu Xin ignored Father-in-law Ming and went straight into the room. Xiao Xuan was sending Ming Gonggong to ask them to leave.

Gonggong Ming didn't expect this Miss Xin'er to be so uninteresting, and he didn't even care about the things rewarded by the emperor, and asked him to go back, how could he explain to the emperor? Moreover, he also knew that this Miss Xin'er could not be offended, and maybe one day she would become the lord of the East Palace and the queen of the new country!

When Lu Xin returned to the room, she was sulking and upset.

She thought: "The emperor is not ordinary people, and even giving a gift to the person he likes has to be done by others."

She suddenly remembered a poem written by Concubine Mei (one of Tang Xuanzong's concubines) when she refused Tang Xuanzong to send pearls: "Thank you for giving pearls"

The willow leaves and eyebrows have not been drawn for a long time,

Residual makeup and tears,

Nagato is free of grooming,

Why bother with pearls to comfort loneliness.

Although her situation at this time is completely different from Concubine Mei's situation at that time, the sentence "Why bother with pearls to comfort loneliness" expresses a similar mood and state of mind to each other, perhaps she only now truly understands Concubine Mei's mood at that time: If the feelings are no longer there, then no matter how many treasures are just mundane things, they can't soothe their feelings, how can they be compared with feelings?

Lu Xin suddenly felt confused about the road ahead, and this time she really didn't know where to go.
