Chapter 019: Emperor's Mind Technique
Murong Xian threw the chess pieces into the chess box unhurriedly and looked at the emperor, "The father may not believe it, but the mother concubine told the son-in-law that the son-in-law's true daughter has appeared." ”
The emperor raised his eyebrows and intercepted his words, "Who is it?" ”
Murong Xian calmly arranged his sleeves, "Forgot." It looks light and light, but the smile in his eyes still can't be hidden, the emperor's face is gloomy, but the smile on the corner of his mouth is still undiminished, "Maybe you worry too much on weekdays, so your mother concubine only dreams and persuades, if there is nothing to do, she often visits the Queen Mother, she is very worried about you." ”
Murong Xian nodded sincerely, the emperor still wanted to chat with him about family life and enhance the relationship between father and son, but Murong Xian didn't have much heart to accompany him, the emperor had already set up a banquet and wanted to have dinner with him and Situ Sheng, but Murong Xian bluntly said that his leg disease often recurred recently, and it was inconvenient to sit at the table.
The emperor sighed, "The acting king has said a few times that he wants to dine with you, he is tired of working faithfully for the country on weekdays, and he thought that today he would ...... Forget it, let's talk about it later. ”
Murong Xian lowered his eyes and saluted, and glanced sideways at Bu Fan standing by the pillar, Bu Fan stepped forward and pushed him away.
But all the palace maids who passed by, couldn't help but stop and look at him a few more times, although he was sitting in a wheelchair, but he was still lonely, cold as a pool, gestures, fairy and elegant, people couldn't help but be intoxicated.
In the Taihe Palace, the emperor sat in front of the imperial desk with a gloomy face, and all the palace people who served were kneeling outside the palace, the sun was setting in the west, and the heat was shining on their shivering backs, and their foreheads were soaked with beads of sweat, but they couldn't tell whether it was cold sweat or sweat that was about to be baked.
Since His Royal Highness King Yu left, the emperor had a decree that the acting king did not have to enter the palace for dinner, and two tea cups had been broken on the ground in the center of the main hall.
The more the emperor thought about it, the more angry he became, he stretched out his arms and made a noise, and all the piles of folds on the imperial case were sprinkled on the ground, and he said indifferently, "I have high hopes for him, how can he easily be emotionally emotional to women, the emperor's heart is tricky, and love words are the most intolerable!" ”
The eunuchs and palace maids kneeling outside the hall could only hear the emperor open the golden mouth, but they couldn't hear what he was saying.
Wu Feng was figuring out the emperor's thoughts, but he heard the emperor say, "Wu Feng." ”
Hearing this, Wu Feng shuddered in horror, hurriedly bowed down and walked quickly into the hall, and when he reached the center of the hall, he knelt on the ground solidly, and clearly heard the emperor explain in a cold voice: "Spread Xiao Rui into the palace." ”
………
Liuli slept on the ground by firewood, and when she woke up, she still felt that her head was heavy, she glanced at the room suspiciously, there was nothing else but firewood, she raised her eyes and looked at the half-open window sash, the sun was slanting in the west, it was dusk, and a large area of clouds in the west was lying quietly in the sky.
She stretched her waist and got up, and found that under the porch outside the window, Bu Fan was standing against the pillar with his hands and arms, looking at her, and said lightly: "Woke up?" ”
Liuli rubbed the corners of her forehead, and before she could figure out where she was for a while, she opened the window sash wide and asked blankly, "Where am I?" ”
Bu Fan raised his eyebrows tuggingly, "Oh? Have you forgotten it all? ”
Liuli pondered for a moment and said sincerely: "I only remember taking a simple mandarin duck bath with the prince." ”
Not far from the corridor, someone seemed to be choked by a lump of breath in his throat, coughed violently, Liuli leaned on the window and looked out, and sure enough, he saw that outside the door of the corridor, Murong Xian was sitting in a wheelchair, although he seemed to be calm and relaxed, but his face was still a little red.
Liuli silently recited in her heart, telling you to fix me, telling you to fix me.
Bu Fan secretly covered his lips and sneered, and gave a thumbs up to Liuli, Liuli frowned, gritted his teeth, and simply leaned on the window and said loudly: "Lord Wang, the slave knows that she is wrong, and she will definitely not bathe with you in the future." ”
Murong Xian's face tightened, there was a hint of obvious embarrassment on his face, he stared at Liuli who pouted, Liuli pitifully twisted his eyebrows, and his hands in front of his nose.
Bu Fan's eyes widened, his face turned pale with shock, and he jumped up and covered Liuli's mouth, "Bold, rude, are you crazy?" ”
Murong Xian raised his eyes to look at the clouds in the sky, and his cold face was full of amazement and loneliness.
"Bufan, let her out."
Liuli was sorry and sincerely took out a slightly thick firewood stick from the firewood room and walked to Murong Xian's side, she was just about to lift it, Bu Fan suddenly jumped up like a thunderbolt and snatched it from her hand, "What are you doing, you dare to do it to the prince?" ”
Liuli stared at him like a fool, and then said firmly, "I asked the prince to punish me." ”
Bu Fan glared at her and turned his head away from her.
Liuli's heart was in a mess, looking at Murong Xian pitifully, and there was a sad look on her face.
Murong Xian looked at her body and a little dirty on her face, and felt a slight pain in her heart, and said, "Don't mention this matter in the future, you go out with this king." He stretched out his hand to wipe the dirt off her face, although he still looked indifferent and detached, but his eyebrows were full of smiles, "Go and freshen up, change your clothes, this king is waiting for you outside." ”
Bu Fan bit his fingers in horror, the prince is well-known for his cleanliness, but he can take the initiative to brush off the stains for whom, or for the first time in the world, Bu Fan shed a tear excitedly, "It's really unheard of." ”
His mind was already in chaos, and he watched Liuli happily run back to the room, jumping and jumping along the way, the prince was not so cold, maybe he had a little misunderstanding of him before, right?
After a while, the coachman opened the curtain and just let Liuli step into the gorgeous carriage, Liuli was asked to wear men's clothes, and saw Murong Xian lazily drinking tea, she sat beside him with great interest, and asked quite measuredly: "Lord Wang, where are we going?" ”
The night has arrived, and there is a clear moon and stars hanging in the vast night sky, Murong Xian put down the teacup and replied to her slowly, "Drunk breeze." ”
…………
Xiao Rui was easily freed from Mrs. Xiao's Buddhist hall, and had just tidied up his clothes in the courtyard, planning to go to the drunken breeze to taste the old wine he had just arrived, but a servant came running in a panic and stammered, "Father...... Childe, Gonggong Wu in the palace came to deliver the decree in person, and the emperor asked you to enter the palace immediately. ”
The old lady was helped by the maid and walked out of the Buddhist hall, "A few days ago, your father begged the emperor to marry you, the second lady of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of War and you are married, it is simply good, and the eight-character marriage is a perfect match, it seems that the emperor has agreed, and he should not hurry up." ”
Xiao Rui sighed, Wu Feng happened to come over and reminded Xiao Rui in a low voice, "The second lady fell from a tree when she was young, and she was able to smash Gongzi at that time, but Gongzi still has an impression?" ”
Xiao Rui's face turned pale for a while, and he remembered in a trance that the second young lady was as fat as a pig, and there was a black birthmark the size of a fingertip on the right side of his face, and he couldn't get out of bed for five days when he was smashed.
"Don't you still have an opinion?" The old lady grabbed Xiao Rui's sleeve, "Now that you are looking for flowers and willows outside, is it true that you want to recruit a girl to be my wife?" ”
Xiao Rui's face darkened a little, and he sighed desolately, "I don't agree." ”
Seeing that the old lady was about to cry like a fountain, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, walked out of the Xiao Mansion quickly, entered the Taihe Palace, and knelt on the ground solidly, looking heroic and righteous.
The emperor's face was gloomy, and he retreated left and right, and the hall was silent.
"I came to you today for the sake of King Yu, you have always been close to King Yu, and you should know more about him."
Xiao Rui's eyebrows jumped, and his heart was a little relieved, the emperor was not forcing him to marry that Miss Shangshu, he coughed, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the minister must know everything, and he will say everything." ”
The emperor nodded with great satisfaction, got up and stood beside the imperial case, holding the edge of the case with his hand, frowning and asking, "Has King Yu been close to any woman recently?" ”
Xiao Rui raised his head solemnly, "The prince has never been close to any woman. ”
The emperor's face immediately turned blue, and he stretched out his hand and pointed at Xiao Rui angrily, "Bold!" Wu Feng, who was waiting outside the hall, shuddered, and wiped the sweat from his forehead tremblingly.
Xiao Rui was shocked in his heart, his face was desolate and helpless, he pondered for a moment, and said: "If you say that you are close to the prince, it should be the girl Zixi who is drunk with the breeze." ”
As soon as the words landed, the emperor angrily threw the tea cup on the case to the ground, his face was extremely ugly, "It turned out to be a Qinglou woman, she is also worthy?" ”
Xiao Rui touched his nose, "Maybe...... Maybe it's not her, think about it again? ”
The emperor sat back on the throne with a cold face, and said indifferently: "If she is really a Qinglou woman, it is expected that she will not be able to set off any storms, and King Yu should not be too attentive to her, but if it is not her, if it is another woman, I really want to get rid of it immediately, and get rid of the future trouble forever." ”
Xiao Rui knelt down and said firmly, "The minister is sure that the closest person to the prince is Zixi." ”
…………
The moon is in the sky, and the drunken breeze in the night is magnificent.
Although the drunken breeze is located on the most prosperous and wide street in the capital, it is still busy at this time, and the location is tense.
The charming girls outside the door are trying their best to solicit the "fat sheep" customers to cheer, Liuli has never seen this battle, from afar to see here more than a dozen lanterns together, the night is particularly lively and dazzling, she has been curious to open the car window to see.
The carriage slowly stopped, the coachman jumped on the ground quickly, opened the curtains, Liuli happily jumped off the carriage, and heard the proprietress of the restaurant next to her crying, "I can't do business these days, I can't do it." ”
The guy from the restaurant came over and poked the boss's arm, and smiled, "The boss lady go in and keep an eye on it, the boss has sneaked out again." Saying that, giving the proprietress a look, it was obvious that the boss had just been pulled into the drunken breeze by the hard-working girl.
Bu Fan secretly pulled off Liuli's sleeve, Liuli stuck out his tongue and head, and pushed Murong Xian into the door very happily, the girl who greeted the guest at the door was waving a silk handkerchief, but looking at Murong Xian's figure, they all turned sideways to avoid him, the closer they got to him, the more excited the excitement flashed in their eyes, but they only dared to hold down their hearts that were about to beat out of their hearts, and they didn't dare to scream.
Liuli walked past the girls, couldn't stand the heavy smell of fat powder for a while, sneezed, hurriedly covered her mouth, and smiled secretly at the cold-faced Bufan next to her.
The old bustard was soliciting guests in the hall, and when he saw Murong Xian's arrogant and indifferent figure, he hurried to greet him.
For the first time, Bu Fan realized that Liuli didn't have much knowledge, and he had always felt that Liuli knew everything.
The old bustard waved his hand, and the little maid hurried to the second floor, Liuli's eyes were only staring at the girl who was dancing on the stage, the girl was wearing a blue gauze skirt, twisting her waist like a water snake, her fragrant shoulders were exposed, accompanied by music, her slender fingers slipped from her neck to her chest, faintly revealing a touch of white, and Liuli opened her mouth in shock.
Everyone present looked at the woman stupidly!
