Chapter 409: The Battle for Position
"Did you know that the princess is my favorite daughter? Do you know where you are right now? Will it protect her safety? The emperor was still frowning, and he stared at Liu Congwen's eyes, for fear that Liu Congwen would panic.
Even though Liu Congwen is the emperor's favorite minister, he has done many things that disobey the emperor's orders before, but he is sure of those things, and he is not sure about Changqing, so there is a slight sweat on his face.
"Your Majesty, the minister knows that the princess is your favorite daughter, and he also knows that the minister's current identity may threaten the dignity of the princess, but the minister will definitely protect the princess and let her not be harmed in any way." Liu Congwen said sonorously, and he did not allow himself to live up to Chang Qing.
Chang Qing Ji Xiao, although she is well versed in the worldliness of people in the palace, she has never done anything to hurt others, she will associate with whoever she likes, and she will never force herself to like what she doesn't like.
Having such a character in the palace must have something to do with the emperor's favor.
"Alright, you go down first." The emperor did not give a clear answer to Liu Congwen's words, and Liu Congwen did not ask much, he had already thought that this matter was not easy when he was with Chang Qing, and he originally wanted to mention it after solving these things in a few years, but he never thought that the emperor's question disrupted his plan.
Things for him and Chang Qing had to be advanced.
The emperor loves Changqing, so he won't let Changqing get into danger, Liu Congwen and Chang Yi are in the party, if Changqing marries Liu Congwen, I'm afraid it will threaten her life, which is what the emperor is most worried about.
Liu Congwen came out of the imperial study with a worried look, Lu Qingyi and Chang Wen saw it, and they both felt strange, Liu Congwen has always been an indifferent person, and he usually looks indifferent to everything, but now he looks like this.
"What did the emperor say to you? Makes you so wilting. Lu Qingyi stepped forward and asked first.
"The emperor asked me if I had anyone I liked, and I told me about myself and the princess, but he didn't say anything." Liu Congwen's whole person looks like he has no energy, he hasn't rested well in the past few days, plus Bu Shenglian's incident, and now that this matter is coming again, it is strange that he can be mental.
"We need to discuss this matter from a long perspective, no matter what the emperor's attitude is, as long as the princess wants to marry, he will not embarrass her with his affection for the princess." Lu Qingyi was comforting Liu Congwen, and he could understand Liu Congwen's mood.
It's just that their circumstances are different, and he doesn't want to marry Shen Xi.
Chang Yi is single, his house is also empty, and the emperor has urged him many times openly and secretly, but to no avail, plus he likes Shen Xi now, so he is even less busy with this matter.
If he can't be with the person he likes, just to complete the task, if it's just like this, he might as well stay single.
After their tossing, it was time for the dinner party to start in the evening, Liu Congwen and Lu Qingyi had already entered the table, but Shen Xi and Chang Qing had not yet come.
They didn't wait for Shen Xi and Chang Qing, but waited for Luo Lan and Bu Shenglian, Luo Lan originally wanted to sit next to Lu Qingyi, but as soon as she saw Lu Qingyi's eyes, she turned around and found another position.
And Bu Shenglian sat down directly next to Liu Congwen, not asking Liu Congwen if he was willing or not.
"You know this position isn't yours." Liu Congwen looked at Bu Shenglian coldly, his voice was as cold as if he had been frozen, and there was no emotion in it.
"Whose is that? If your seat is vacant, I can't sit down, can I? Bu Shenglian didn't dare to look at Liu Congwen's eyes, she was worried that she would be sad when she saw those cold eyes, Liu Congwen didn't look at her like this before. Everybody reads
"Bu Shenglian!" Liu Congwen gritted his teeth and shouted Bu Shenglian's name, which already meant that he was angry, but Bu Shenglian was still the same as she couldn't hear anything, she always felt that Liu Congwen had feelings for herself, she didn't want to admit that she was a person who liked her so much, and she changed her mind when she said that she changed her mind.
But she forgot that it was she who disappeared first and abandoned her first, not Liu Congwen who abandoned her.
"Arwen, do you really want to be so ruthless?" Bu Shenglian also gritted her teeth, her body was trembling slightly, she never expected that Liu Congwen was already unfamiliar to this point, what had he done in just a few years.
"If I'm not ruthless to you, I'm sorry for her." Liu Congwen didn't want to argue with Bu Shenglian anymore.
Bu Shenglian lowered his head and laughed softly: "It seems that that girl is very pleasing to you." He didn't know whether it was vinegar or true blessing in her words.
When Chang Qing and Shen Xi came, the position was almost sitting, Shen Xi sat down next to Lu Qingyi, when Chang Qing found Liu Congwen, he was already sitting with Bu Shenglian, seeing Bu Shenglian, Chang Qing frowned slightly, she turned her head and left after seeing that it was Bu Shenglian.
The moment she turned away, her eyes were a little red, this reaction is the reaction of any normal person, Shen Xi saw this scene, and almost slapped the table, but when she saw Liu Congwen get up, she forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart.
Chang Qing walked to a boy brother and sat down, the boy brother was very happy to see it, and thought that Chang Qing was interesting to him, so he took the initiative to pour her tea.
It's just that Liu Congwen picked up the cup of tea and drank it all, and then he stared at the boy brother, and his voice was cold, "Get out." ”
Seeing that it was Liu Congwen, the boy's face turned green, but he looked at Chang Qing again, and became bolder, "Lord Liu, this is the princess herself here, why do you want me to go?" ”
Liu Congwen suddenly laughed, he walked next to Brother Gongzi, bent down to his ear, and threatened softly: "If you don't leave, I will kill you."
Hearing this, the boy's face turned green, "You dare!" ”
Liu Congwen smiled softly, "You can inquire, there is something that I Liu Congwen dare not do." ”
Hearing this, the boy had no choice but to change his position.
Liu Congwen sat down as he wished, he glanced at Chang Qing, "What, are you still angry?" Why didn't you just go up and let her go? ”
"I let her go? You've allowed people to sit there, how can I tell them to leave, I'm not that thick-skinned. Chang Qing said angrily, plus Bu Shenglian also directly replaced Liu Congwen Awen, she really couldn't pass this level in her heart.
To say that there is nothing wrong with them, she naturally does not believe it.
"If you don't have thick skin, then you can't blame others for being thick-skinned, so thick that I can't get rid of it." Liu Congwen is explaining to Chang Qing, and Chang Qing is not stupid, so he can naturally hear it.
"But why does she have to sit with you, and what is your relationship?" Chang Qing asked Liu Congwen with a solemn expression, after all, she felt that Bu Shenglian was not simple.
