() Liu Yan said, "Your Highness, the general has not replied, how should we act now?" ”

Murong Yu thought slightly, only a few days after he returned to the palace, the Queen Mother summoned Jiang Ran to come.

This sudden move, I don't know if it will break his plan.

At this time, a voice came from outside the hall, "Your Royal Highness, the emperor invites you to go to the imperial study." ”

Murong Yu glanced at Liu Yan before getting up.

Step into the Imperial Study.

The emperor is playing a chess game.

"Sit down, yesterday's unfinished endgame, today our father and son will win or lose."

Murong Yu glanced at the chess game, "Father, in this chess game, Erchen has already admitted defeat yesterday, there is no need to try again." ”

The emperor raised his eyes and looked at him, "You deliberately showed your defeat, did you not want to fight with me?" ”

Murong Yu said, "Life is like chess, there is no regret when you fall, if you lose, you lose, how can you deliberately lose, it is the father's superb chess skills, and the sons are willing to bow down." ”

The emperor pointed to the opposite seat and insisted on continuing, "Unintentionally or deliberately, this game is the winner of the game, and you will accompany me to the end." ”

Murong Yu said, "Yes." ”

He sat down opposite the Emperor.

The emperor looked at the son. There is composure in the low balance between the eyebrows, and there is no greed for power in the depths of the eyes.

He remembered his actions back then, and he didn't regret it all these years, but once some choices were made, there was no chance of regret.

If he is dying of old age and has such a son under his knees, he is the best candidate to inherit the unification.

He would be very pleased.

But now that he is in the prime of life, there is a Zeng family behind this son who makes him jealous, and he can't leave a little hidden danger to his imperial power that he can't control.

Speaking of which, he felt guilty about this son.

It's just that this guilt is not worth mentioning in the Emperor's House.

The emperor left a son.

Without hesitation.

A smile appeared on the corner of Murong Yu's lips.

In the past, he felt unwilling, but now he only feels indifferent.

He has no intention of fighting, just being false and wrong.

The emperor looked at Murong Yu and said, "You should have heard about it." ”

Just such a sentence, Jiang Ran knew what the emperor wanted to say.

Murong Yu did not deny it, "Father is referring to the fact that the Jiang family girl entered the palace?" ”

The Emperor said, "It seems that you already know. Your imperial grandmother has had trouble with me a few times for your sake. ”

Murong Yu listened quietly, and his expression did not change in the slightest.

He didn't even know about such a big thing, that is, the Qian family didn't know either.

Since the Queen Mother had already told the emperor, then it meant that the emperor who Jiang Ran entered the palace knew, Murong Yu hung his head, thinking about what the emperor meant.

"I want to hear about it."

Murong Yu suppressed all the emotions in his heart and gently spit out four words.

The emperor didn't seem to care, and said, "Your grandmother has told me a few times, saying that it is really a bit difficult to let a little girl sign a military order, not to mention, the lord of Jianghuai County has made a great contribution to this plague, and if Guangruo really asked her to throw away her life for this, my sin is too great, and I have also thought about it repeatedly, and this matter is indeed inappropriate for me to do." ”

The emperor's words hit Murong Yu's heart, and Murong Yu said lightly, "Erchen's body is well known, and I don't want to move the people for a little bit of expectation." ”

As soon as the emperor raised his hand, he stopped Murong Yu's words, and then made another move, saying, "I think about it. The decision is up to your imperial grandmother. It was decided to withdraw the military order. ”

Murong Yu was shocked, "Father doesn't have to be like this, Erchen doesn't have such plans." ”

The emperor looked at Murong Yu and said, "In this matter, I have already agreed to the imperial grandmother, and besides, your imperial grandmother has already cleaned up the dormitory, and she plans to live permanently with the Jiang family girl."

Murong Yu still hadn't answered.

But I heard a voice, "The lord of Jianghuai has arrived." ”

Murong Yu was slightly stunned and looked back.

said that at night, Jiang Ran was in the hall.

An internal supervisor came over and said, "The emperor has invited a girl from the Jiang family." ”

Jiang Ran said in his heart, sure enough, he came.

She got up and followed the inner supervisor to the imperial study.

Entering the imperial study, Jiang Ran half-hung his head, and could still see that it was none other than Murong Yu who was playing chess with the emperor.

Jiang Ran stabilized his thoughts, and knelt down indifferently to salute, "Courtier Jiang Ran, I have seen the emperor." ”

As soon as the emperor raised his hand, he was very indifferent, "Get up." ”

Jiang Ran lowered his head and saluted Murong Yu again, "I've seen King Guangling." ”

The emperor held a chess piece in his hand, turned around, and looked at Jiang Ran carefully, "Jianghuai County Lord, I didn't expect to meet again." ”

Jiang Ran stood quietly, hanging his head, and did not look in the direction of Murong Yu, "I don't know why the emperor called Jiang Ran here?" ”

The emperor said, "Naturally, for the sake of King Guangling, the Empress Dowager and I have mentioned the matter of the military order, and I have also thought about it repeatedly, this military order is indeed inappropriate. ”

As soon as the emperor raised his hand, the inner eunuch next to him hurriedly brought the things to Jiang Ran, "I destroyed this thing today, this paper-like book will be like waste paper from now on, and the Jianghuai County Lord doesn't have to worry too much." ”

Jiang Ran watched as the military order was really split in half.

She didn't look at Murong Yu, but she could still feel Murong Yu moving.

At this time, Jiang Ran was a little confused about the emperor's intentions.

But one thing she was sure of was that the emperor had no good intentions.

Jiang Ran knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, Jiang Ran can't be governed, at that time, he was so angry that he signed the military order, but because he was young and frivolous, because he was looked down upon, he couldn't wait to prove himself, in fact, I carefully diagnosed and treated King Guangling, and I was indeed powerless." ”

The emperor didn't care what Jiang Ran said.

He waved his hand, "The imperial doctor in this palace is for you to send, no matter what, since you have obtained the head of this medical union at that time, you have taken over the will to heal King Guangling." At this time, to shirk is to resist the will and disrespect. ”

Jiang Ran's heart sank.

When facing the emperor, it is different from facing the concubine.

Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, that is, the tiger is poisonous and does not eat children, but the emperor in front of him can even poison his own son.

Jiang Ran took a deep breath, the emperor didn't say a word, and she didn't dare to take it lightly.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Jiang Ran said quietly.

The emperor waved his hand, "In this case, the Jianghuai County Lord can live in the palace with peace of mind!" ”

Then he looked at Murong Yu, who was silent on the side, "Yu'er, you go and send the Jianghuai County Lord." ”

Murong Yu knew that the emperor's intentions were impure, but he couldn't refuse after all.

He looked at Jiang Ran.

After all, he still said, "Yes, Father." ”

It's getting dark.

The two walked not far away.

The night is cool.

The two of them uttered a sentence at the same time.

"I'm sorry."

Saying that, the two of them were stunned at the same time.

Murong Yu said first, "It should be that I can't help it, after all, I still dragged you into this mud nest." Ranran, don't worry, I will definitely protect you Zhou. ”

Jiang Ran felt sorry in his heart, afraid of becoming a drag on him, but there was no need to say it at this time.

She bowed her head and said, "Okay." I believe in you. ”

Because it's in the palace, I can't say anything else.

The two of them walked through the palace.

In the silence of the night, only two figures were stretched for a long, long time.
