Chapter 240: Is it bad for a man to take the initiative

In those deep cold eyes, it seemed that he could burst out at any time - a sharp ice blade, knocking him out on the spot!

With just one glance, Li Zhong was so frightened that he lowered his head again.

Ying Zhan chuckled, "Li Zhong, I found that you, the chief eunuch, are very good, not only can figure out the holy will, but also are very good at pretending to be garlic. ”

"No, no, the slave is just a eunuch, where will he understand the emperor's thoughts." Li Zhong buried his head lower, and he tentatively said the point, "If the emperor doesn't want to review the official documents for a while, then go to the imperial garden for a walk?" By the way, go to the pear hall to have a look? ”

It's really scary to death, when the emperor says cool words, he is really the same as a concubine.

At this moment, he suddenly had a bold idea!

It is time to let the emperor and the concubine scold each other, and let the two of them taunt each other.

Well, what a perfect match! Li Zhong thought so.

"What are I doing when I have nothing to do with the Pear Palace?" Ying Zhan asked seemingly nonchalantly.

Li Zhong saw that His Majesty the Emperor was not angry, and his tone was even better than before.

Then he boldly said: "For the harem concubines, you have always been a bowl of water with a flat bowl of water, and the rain and dew are evenly wet. No, you haven't been to the Pear Hall for a few days, of course, the minion is just mentioned, the key is to see what you mean. ”

The Emperor nodded in a sudden realization, "So you're reminding me to get even the rain and dew?" Or did the people of the Pear Hall give you silver, and you actually help them talk like this? ”

"No, no, no, the minion definitely didn't take bribes, the minion's heart is only on you, and it's all for your sake." The autumn breeze was blowing, but a layer of cold sweat was already oozing from Li Zhong's forehead.

He sneered, "Moreover, the dishes you eat today are all according to the recipes given by the chef of the concubine Niangniang, why don't you go and sit at the concubine Niangniang?" ”

"Don't mention her in front of me! It's just a few recipes, worth seeing her? Ying Zhan bit the back of her teeth fiercely, "Didn't she let Shang Sleep Bureau withdraw the green head card, what did I do with her?" ”

Li Zhong: "......"

The emperor is so arrogant, obviously because the concubine is not happy, but he just doesn't admit it.

The key is that the concubine is also stubborn.

It's not a way to go on like this, and he and the minions of Longxuan Hall won't be able to withstand the emperor's wrath.

Moreover, they are scolded, punished, and beaten, and it doesn't matter if they are all scolded.

But if the emperor is angry and breaks the dragon body, then it is the most important.

Therefore, Li Zhong felt that although the emperor rejected the Tilting Pear Palace, he had to coax the emperor to the Tilting Pear Palace.

Perhaps, when he sees the concubine, the emperor will not be so arrogant?

After all, men and women quarrel at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed.

Anyway, it was the concubine who angered the emperor, so let the concubine bear the emperor's wrath!

Thinking of this, Li Zhong cautiously tried again, "Your Majesty, haven't you been to Liu Guiren's place to listen to music for a long time, why don't you go to her place to listen to music and relax?" ”

"Don't talk to me about it!" Ying Zhan's tone was cold and hard.

"......" is also, the emperor and the concubine have an awkward quarrel, the reason is because of Liu Guiren's singing, Li Zhong was busy clapping his mouth, "The slave should die, the slave should die, the slave said the wrong thing!" ”

He has said everything that should be said, and he has persuaded everything that should be persuaded.

But the emperor deceived himself, what else could he do? I have to shut up!

As a result, the tense conversation between the master and servant came to an abrupt end.

Ying Zhan's thin lips were light, and the mysterious ink pupils looked out of the hall, not knowing what to think.

After a long time, he pulled his lips and got up and said, "Let people drive the pear hall." ”

After saying this, he lifted his feet and walked out of the temple.

"Yes, yes, the slave will make people prepare, and if the concubine knows that you go to see her, she will be very happy." Li Zhongdao.

As soon as the voice fell, the emperor paused slightly.

Ying Zhan turned his head to look at Li Zhong, "Who said I was going to see her?" ”

Li Zhong was stunned when he boarded.

It took him a long time before he reacted, didn't the emperor go to the Tilting Pear Hall to see the Tilting Concubine, didn't he go to listen to the music?

He hurriedly changed his words and said: "Yes, yes, you see that the slave said the wrong thing again, if you go to the Pear Hall to listen to the music, Liu Guiren will definitely be very happy." ”

It's just that I was thinking in my heart that the emperor and the concubine had an awkward quarrel because of this Liu nobleman.

Now that the emperor has gone to Liu Guiren's to listen to the music, isn't the contradiction between the two deeper? How's that good?

But the emperor looked indifferent, as if he didn't think so.

Hey, it's really that the emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuch is in a hurry!

A moment later, Long Yuan arrived at the Tilting Pear Palace.

Ying Zhan took the minions directly into the courtyard of the Liu Guiren in the side hall.

"The emperor has arrived!" Li Zhong sang the newspaper with a sharp voice.

After a while, Liu Guiren came out wearing a lotus silk pipa skirt.

And Ying Yingfu saluted, "The concubine greets the emperor, and the emperor is saintly." ”

Ying Zhan let out a faint "um", but her eyes looked at the courtyard with a smile.

Seeing this, Liu Guiren's eyes dimmed slightly.

But she didn't show it, but said in a soft voice: "The emperor hasn't been here for a long time, and the concubine thinks that the emperor forgot about Man'er." ”

"But the emperor came just in time today, Man'er just made Longjing tea, the emperor should come into the house and taste it?"

"I drank tea when I came." Ying Zhan retracted her eyes and looked at Liu Guiren, "It's been a long time since I've heard Concubine Ai sing." ”

Hearing this, Liu Guiren lowered his head shyly and said softly: "Then the emperor will go into the house and listen to Man'er sing." ”

Ying Zhan didn't respond to Liu Guiren's words, he just stood in place with his hands down.

Then he spun around in place, his gaze sweeping the entire courtyard.

"Concubine Ai's voice is wonderful, but every time I listen to it, I always feel that something is missing." Ying Zhan frowned.

In one sentence, Liu Guiren was shocked when he heard it, thinking that he had not sung well.

replied even more obediently: "The emperor thinks Man'er can't sing well enough?" ”

"Concubine Ai is too worried." Ying Zhan's gaze fell on the high platform outside the courtyard of the hall, "It's just that when I was in the capital before, I listened to music in the theater, and those servants also sang on the stage, and the lovely concubine sang in the inner room every time." ”

Liu Guiren: "......"

The theater is a theater, and the palace is the palace, so of course she is singing in the house.

Moreover, as a concubine, she can't sing songs purely, she also has to compete for favor, right?

But in broad daylight, in such a large yard, how can she compete for favor?

Liu Guiren didn't understand the emperor, let alone why the emperor said such a thing.

But Li Zhong was the emperor's interpreter, and he heard the mystery at once.

Li Zhong: "Liu Guiren, the emperor thinks that if you sing on the high stage, you will have the atmosphere of the theater, and in this way, the music you sing will be more beautiful and beautiful!" ”

The corners of Liu Guiren's mouth twitched slightly.

In her opinion, as long as she sings well, it is the same wherever she sings.

It doesn't matter if you sing indoors or outdoors.

But the emperor and Li Zhong both said so, and she could only do it.

Liu Guiren turned his head and ordered the palace maid to bring out the pipa and chairs.

Li Zhong also moved a Taishi chair from the house to the emperor.

Ying Zhan looked like a big man, he faced the high platform in the hall, sat down on the chair leisurely, and cocked the legs of a successful man's business erlang.

Li Zhong stood behind the emperor in an orderly manner.

He glanced at the round arch on the right, which was the courtyard of the concubine.

As a eunuch, he sometimes really couldn't understand what was going on in the minds of men.

The emperor was obviously thinking about the concubine, and the people also ran to the Tilting Pear Palace, why didn't he go directly to the concubine.

Instead, I went to the Liu nobleman next door.

Is it bad for a man to take the initiative?

Although I lost face, I won my feelings.

Oh, he forgot, the emperor's feelings.

After a while, Liu Guiren sat on the high platform outside the hall with the pipa in his arms.

A pair of slender jade hands compared to the orchid fingers, holding the pipa in his arms vertically, pressing the strings with his left hand, and playing with the five fingers of his right hand, singing "babbling and babbling".

However, before she could sing a sentence, the emperor interrupted her tune and said lightly: "Change the song."

Liu Guiren was slightly stunned.

She looked at the emperor in bewilderment, but found that he seemed displeased, and the coldness in his eyes was even more obvious.

But on the night of her first bedtime, when he summoned her to the Longxuan Palace, she sang this song, which led to what happened.

Another time, the emperor turned over the sign of the concubine, and she sang this song in the side hall early, and he also went to her courtyard.

Why did she see rejection in his eyes today?

Liu Guiren pursed his lips, but finally didn't sing this song again, and switched to another tune.

In this way, the whole courtyard was filled with the wonderful sound of Liu Guiren singing music.

Not only that, but even the entire pear hall is also the intoxicating sound of Liu Guiren.

Ying Zhan just crossed Erlang's legs and listened to the music.

In some cases, he closed his eyes and enjoyed listening to the music.

In other cases, he would open his eyes and look at Liu Guiren.

But more often than not, the eye will glance at the arch on the right from time to time.

Li Zhong, who was standing in the back, found that His Majesty the Emperor always turned his head to look at the courtyard of the concubine next door.

However, in the courtyard next door, there was no other movement except for Xiao Guizi standing at the door of the hall and waiting.

And when this Liu nobleman sang, he actually sang to the sunset.

At this moment, Liu Guiren's voice was slightly hoarse because he had been singing for a long time.

But the emperor didn't say to let her stop, so she couldn't.

This man, although sometimes gentle, but if you annoy him, it will be doomed.

Moreover, even if she coquettishly expressed discomfort in her throat several times halfway, the emperor did not see it and did not hear it.

Seeing that the sky was about to darken, Ying Zhan glanced at the round arch on the right with some impatience, "Li Zhong, what time is it?" ”

"If you go back to the emperor, it's already three quarters of the hour." Li Zhonghui replied.

Ying Zhan looked at the arch on the right again and didn't speak.

Li Zhong also looked at the arch, thinking that he was so determined.

This Liu nobleman sang songs in the courtyard for most of the day, and the concubines were not too noisy, and they didn't even see their heads poked out.

Just when Li Zhong was thinking like this, he found that there was a group of people in the corridor on the left.

Li Zhong looked at it, and the one wearing a rouge skirt at the head was not the concubine Niangniang?!

Seeing this scene, Li Zhong's eyes lit up, and he thought that he had finally waited for this !!
