Don't try to drive me away
Murong Chen accompanied Leng Yang and walked out of Linfu Palace with her.
The palace people all showed incredible expressions when they saw the two of them walking together, and no one knew that their mother and son had always been incompatible.
Although the palace people didn't dare to say much on the surface, they talked about them when they got together in private.
Gonggong Su followed closely behind Murong Chen, and Ye Qin was also with him.
In other words, this Ye Qin is a ruthless character, she is a dowry maid brought by Leng Yang from the Northern Desert, she was originally served by Leng Yang's mother's side, and was later brought up by Leng Yang to the Liao Kingdom.
This woman is very deep in the city, and even Grandpa Su, who is usually used to observing words and feelings, can't figure out what she is thinking in her heart. She has received the favor of Leng Yang's mother and is absolutely loyal to Leng Yang. Just like Murong Chen did to Ah Jiu, although Ah Jiu couldn't speak, he put his gratitude to Murong Chen into action.
It was really the first time in his life, Leng Yang could let go of the hatred in his heart and talk and laugh with Murong Chen. This is the mother-son relationship she yearns for.
It's worth exchanging a handsome seal for his short company.
Father-in-law Su looked at the mother and son and shook his head helplessly.
It is clear that they have each other in their hearts, and they can all pay attention to each other silently behind their backs, but why can't they put down the mustard and get along like now? After all, it's a mother and son, is it really that hard to say that I was wrong, I love you?
Father-in-law Su is an old man in the palace, and he is used to the methods used by harem women to compete for favor, and he is also used to the open and secret battles in the government and the opposition. He knew that Leng Yang hated the first emperor, and he once thought that it was because the first emperor had hurt this poor woman that she would become what she is now, but he didn't know that Leng Yang was also an ambitious woman, and she was not willing to be a queen mother for the rest of her life.
Of course, these father-in-law Su can't guess.
Murong Chen accompanied Leng Yang, and finally sat in the pavilion in the back garden.
The palace people gathered around to pour tea, serve pastries, and then silently retreat.
"Chen'er, you won't be angry when the queen mother punished Ruolan before, right?" Leng Yang asked.
"Does the queen want to hear the truth?" Murong Chen also asked unequivocally.
"Naturally, it's true."
"You punished Ruolan for kneeling for so long that she can't get out of bed now, to be honest...... Erchen was indeed angry. ”
Leng Yang suddenly stopped talking, her own son knew that this outspoken character could not be changed.
Murong Chen continued: "If Lan is small, her body will be weak, and she will get sick if she moves the wind. On weekdays, Erchen would let her stay in Youlan Pavilion to take care of her body, and Erchen did pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, but he never thought that the queen mother would be so aggressive. ”
Leng Yang seemed to hear a hint of mockery from his mouth.
Leng Yang looked at Murong Chen, and suddenly said:
"Do you know why the mourning family didn't let you crown Murong Ruolan as the queen?"
Murong Chen replied without thinking about it: "Because the queen mother is afraid that the power of the Murong family is too great, it will affect your painstaking plan." ”
"Chen'er! Do you have to talk to the queen mother like that? ”
Murong Chen looked at the tea in front of him and continued: "The queen mother knows that Ruolan is destined to be my wife since she married me at the age of thirteen, and even if she is not sealed, she is still the master of this harem. And you made her angry, let her lose face in front of the harem concubines, how will she manage the harem in the future?"
Leng Yang couldn't help but let out a sneer and said, "If she doesn't even have the ability to recover this rabble in the harem, the mourning family will look at it...... It's okay if she, the imperial concubine, doesn't do it! ”
Murong Chen was suddenly annoyed and slammed up.
"Does the Queen Mother have to continue talking like this?"
"Did the mourning family warn you a long time ago that if you want to be a qualified emperor, you must be ruthless, and you must not have any weakness! At the beginning, it was you who told the mourning family that you didn't love Murong Ruolan, and the mourning family asked your father to give marriage. How? Now regretted it? ”
"I never regret it!" Murong Chen's attitude also hardened.
"Anyway, Ruolan is also my wife, of course I have to protect her."
"If you don't love her, why do you defend her like this?"
"I say it again...... Ruolan and I have always respected each other like guests, and our relationship is definitely not what the queen mother thinks! ”
"So much the best!"
Leng Yang suddenly lowered his voice again, becoming much gentler.
"Chen'er, never forget that to be an emperor, you must not expose your weaknesses. If one day the queen mother finds out about ......" Leng Yang paused, lowered his voice and continued: "Then don't blame the queen mother for being ruthless. ”
Murong Chen looked at her and felt that she was now a complete madman. However, he has long been immune to her threat.
Murong Chen was very angry, he turned his back with his hand, and said, "The queen mother should take a good look at the pond of lotus flowers outside this pavilion, and it is inconvenient for her sons to stay for a long time because of their official duties." ”
Leng Yang just looked at his back and didn't say anything.
Gonggong Su said goodbye to Leng Yang and followed Murong Chen.
Leng Yang glanced at the budding lotus flowers in the pond and smiled bitterly.
Ye Qin stepped forward and squatted at her feet and stretched out her hand to help her pinch her legs, and couldn't help asking: "Queen Mother, you obviously want Your Majesty to accompany you more, why do you deliberately provoke Your Majesty?" ”
Leng Yang glanced at Ye Qin lovingly and said, "There are some things that he needs to understand by himself, and I just want to remind him." ”
Ye Qin lowered her eyes thoughtfully.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty ......" Father-in-law Su said a little out of breath as he chased after Murong Chen, who was in the wind at his feet.
"Your Majesty, Ah Jiu was already waiting in the Qinzheng Hall half an hour ago, does Your Majesty want to go and have a look?"
Murong Chen continued to walk briskly, without stopping, and said quickly: "Let him go to Youlan Pavilion and report to me!" ”
Gonggong Su couldn't help but sigh, but he was slapped by Murong Chen.
"Your Majesty, what Ah Jiu wants to report to you may not be convenient for the noble concubine to listen to...... You see......"
Murong Chen suddenly stopped, and Su Gong almost didn't hit his back.
"Where did so much nonsense come from! From today onwards, I will send all the recitals I want to review to Youlan Pavilion, what do I want to discuss with the concubine, do you have any opinions?"
Threat! This is a naked threat!
"No...... No...... Don't dare, don't dare Where do you dare to question Your Majesty's decision! ”
Hearing this, Murong Chen walked quickly again with satisfaction.
Father-in-law Su was stunned.
Isn't it that Your Majesty was too stimulated by the Queen Mother and was stupid?
But looking at the way he looks now, it's really not a joke.
I really didn't expect that he would be the first emperor in history to use a palace concubine's residence as a small court.
Ay! I don't know what kind of shit luck their noble concubine lady stepped on to get such a good show. was so troubled by Murong Chen, it is estimated that this harem is about to catch fire again.
I don't know if Murong Guifei can be as low as the sour words of other palace concubines.
In the Youlan Pavilion, Murong Ruolan was fundamentally injured, and she lay down for several days before she had the strength to get up. Unexpectedly, Murong Chen came in before he could make up, and no one reported it.
And the little eunuch who followed him was holding a stack of folds in their arms, and put them on the bookcase where she usually reads and paints a few times.
was still wondering, and without even asking a word, he was picked up by Murong Chen, who was facing him, and carried back to the bed.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing?" Murong Ruolan's face was full of horror.
After the little eunuchs had withdrawn from Youlan Pavilion, Murong Chen explained to her.
Unexpectedly, Murong Ruolan's first reaction was to laugh.
What to laugh at? Is he that funny?
Murong Chen was very unhappy in his heart, feeling that he was disgusted.
Before the couple could chat, the atmosphere was ruined by Ah Jiu, who came in a hurry.
When Father-in-law Su found someone to go to the Qinzheng Palace to pass a message to him, he was also confused, what is His Majesty doing? It wasn't until he saw the little eunuchs moving stacks of folds to Youlan Pavilion that he reacted and quickly came to Youlan Pavilion.
"I heard Su Lin say that you have something to tell me, what's the matter, say it!"
Ah Jiu glanced at Murong Ruolan a few times, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching a few times.
Murong Chen also saw his concerns, and bluntly said that he had something to say quickly, and he didn't have to care about this.
Ah Jiu found a piece of rice paper and wrote down everything he wanted to report.
"Yun Zhannan came back so soon? Is something wrong with Shangguan Chengru? ”
Ah Jiu shook his head and added another sentence to the rice paper.
"They went in the direction of the Northern Desert...... It seems that this Shangguan Jing is not stupid. ”
"Zhao Yin, are they back?"
Ah Jiu shook his head again and continued to write:
"Commander Zhao took Yu Linwei to find another group of killers who wanted to assassinate Shangguan Chengru, they have already arrived in Jinzhou City, and Murong Shizi has also gone to the Northern Desert."
Murong Ruolan sat on the bed and looked at the rice paper in Murong Chen's hand and saw the words.
"Ah Shuo also went! Isn't it dangerous? ”
Murong Chen patted her hand and told her not to worry.
"Find out the identity of the other group of people as soon as possible, and don't startle the snake."
Ah Jiu nodded, took the rice paper in Murong Chen's hand and strode out of Youlan Pavilion.
"Does Your Majesty intend to go on like this forever?"
Murong Chen knew what she wanted to say, so he leaned on the bed early, with his back to her. Murong Ruolan felt that he hadn't changed at all, every time he came to her after being scolded when he was a child, he would directly plant his head on her bed, and the little hooligan in her boudoir didn't know how many times he had entered.
"Your Majesty......" Murong Ruolan gently pushed him, but Murong Chen ignored her.
"Your Majesty......" Murong Ruolan called him again, but he still ignored her.
Murong Ruolan smiled helplessly, and finally fell asleep side by side with him, stretching out an arm to hug him, she coaxed him like this when she was a child.
"Ah Chen......"
Hearing this familiar name, Murong Chen was finally willing to turn around.
"Ah Chen, don't mess around anymore, okay?"
"If I don't leave, I won't leave anyway!" Murong Chen gambled.
"Don't try to drive me away!"
Murong Ruolan looked at him for a long time, suddenly grabbed his hand, and said, "Ah Chen, thank you." ”
Murong Chen didn't expect her to say this, and he was a little distracted. But he reacted anyway, grabbed her fingers back, and smiled softly at her.
