Chapter 265: The Best Chance for a Stand-in
These words really made Liang Yuexi panic.
"Isn't the Seventh Princess dead?"
"Who said the Seventh Princess is dead?"
Liang Yuexi was speechless. Everyone knows that the Seventh Princess has disappeared twice, but in fact, everyone is privately spreading that the Seventh Princess is not missing, but seriously ill. The second time he disappeared, he naturally died.
Now that Zhuyun says so, what else does she have to do!
Liang Yuexi unconsciously tightened her palms, and her heart was more resolute than ever. "Although I don't know what happened between her and the emperor, I know that if she wants to come back, why wait until now." She raised her head and looked at Zhuyun extremely seriously. "As long as Niangniang helps, I will definitely be able to take the emperor's heart."
Zhuyun has been in contact with Liang Yuexi for so long, but he is most satisfied with her words.
She stood up and walked out, and Liang Yuexi also stood up. "Niangniang, where are you going?"
"Didn't you ask me for help? Go back and wait. ”
With that, he walked straight out.
Tian'er secretly glanced back, and saw that Liang Yuexi was standing at the door of the main hall looking at them, and quickly turned her head again. "Do you think Concubine Xi can do this? After all, in the emperor's heart......"
"No one knows the emperor's feelings for that woman better than me. If Liang Yuexi can really control the emperor's heart, that's the best, and if he can't control it, it's not in the way, I'll find the next person. ”
Tian'er frowned when she heard this, "Since she has come back, will the emperor directly arrest people back?" ”
Zhuyun paused, "He can't catch it." ”
Cheng Zirui had just gone down to the court, and when he came back and saw Zhuyun standing at the door of his bedroom, he already knew what she was going to say next.
"Your Majesty, girl...... She's coming, isn't she? ”
Cheng Zirui was stunned, she thought that Zhuyun was going to talk about Liang Yuexi, but she didn't expect her to open her mouth and talk about Tong Yuqing.
Leng Rui's eyes examined Zhuyun's body, and only opened his mouth after a moment. "How do you know she's back?"
Zhuyun pursed the corners of her lips and chuckled: "Someone sent me news this morning, I can't help but want to ask......" Seeing that Cheng Zirui's face became more and more cold, she was not afraid at all, and continued: "When she disappeared, I was also responsible. For so long, I always thought that if we met again, I would have to ask her why she left in the first place...... But after receiving the news this morning, I suddenly didn't want to ask. ”
Zhuyun's kung fu of lying really made Tian'er admire, if it weren't for Tian'er following Zhuyun from the Seven Kings' Mansion, I'm afraid she would really have to believe her at this time.
"I don't want to ask, so what are you doing here?"
"I don't want to ask her, but I want to ask you."
Zhuyun rarely used this tone to talk to Cheng Zirui, and last time, it seemed to be a matter of Concubine Li.
Cheng Zirui was in a trance for a moment.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Zhuyun saluted and retired. "Then the concubine will go back first."
"It's still casual between you and me, I'm not used to hearing you call yourself like this."
"I'm not used to it. ”
Cheng Zirui showed a rare smile, walked in front of him, and motioned for Zhuyun to follow him. Except for Luo Heng, the person he trusts the most is Zhuyun, who never doubts. So in Zhuyun's words just now, he only thought that she was blaming herself for not being optimistic about Tong Yuqing.
"You say, will I ever have a chance to see her again?"
Zhuyun shook his head and said bluntly: "No." ”
Cheng Zirui smiled bitterly, "But I want to see her." ”
The bamboo clouds were like a fish in his throat, and the guilt was completely shouted in his heart.
"Whether there is a chance or not, she is here anyway, if there is a fate, we will naturally meet." Cheng Zirui took the tea handed over by Zhuyun and took a sip. The fragrance of the tea is overflowing, the temperature of the tea is just right, and the whole person is much more comfortable after taking such a bite.
"You're here for Liang Yuexi?" Cheng Zirui's eyes sank, and his tone suddenly became much warmer. "Finding her, you must have wasted a lot of effort."
"It's not all for her." Zhuyun suddenly sighed. "If the emperor is unwilling to stand up, I have no right to say anything. I have no right to say anything about whom he is the queen. It's just that...... Although the emperor doesn't like those women, in order to win over the courtiers, the emperor still has to walk around the harem often. Moreover, for the sake of the royal heirs......"
Zhuyun didn't say any more, listening to the euphemism, but the sentences were to the point. She looked at Cheng Zirui's face carefully, but saw that he was staring at her thoughtfully with a heavy gaze, and Zhuyun suddenly felt a little weak.
Cheng Zirui put down the teacup, walked to the soft collapse and lay down lazily. Zhuyun was about to retreat, but he called her over directly.
"Give me two pushes."
Zhuyun walked behind Cheng Zirui, knelt on the ground, and skillfully rubbed his temples on both sides. Cheng Zirui has indeed been too tired recently, and her technique is just right, and three or two strokes have relaxed his entire tense body.
"Who do you think is the most suitable successor to me?"
Leng Buding's words almost frightened Zhuyun to shrink her hand, she thought about it and said a name.
"No, Hou Yifan is an ambitious person, if he makes his daughter the queen, he won't be even more difficult."
"That'...... What about the young lady of Mrs. Wu's family? The Wu family is a scholarly family, and presumably her daughter must also be knowledgeable. ”
"A nerd's daughter is still a nerd."
Zhuyun made a difficulty. "Then the emperor should make his own decision."
Cheng Zirui suddenly opened his eyes, "How is Liang Yuexi?" ”
Zhuyun shook his head without thinking. "It's not appropriate."
Cheng Zirui responded lightly, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep. "Don't stop, keep pressing."
An hour later, Zhuyun came out of it, calmly rubbing his hands that were already sore. Tian'er glanced inside curiously, and was unceremoniously knocked on the door by Zhuyun.
"What are you looking at?"
Tian'er stuck out her tongue mischievously, "What about the emperor?" ”
"Sleep."
Tian'er suddenly became happy, her own mother was pampered! It's still in Cheng Zirui's bedroom! This is an honor that no one has ever had!
"Ouch!"
Tian'er was knocked on the door of her head again, both times in the same position, Zhuyun's strength was not light, and her delicate skin immediately turned red.
"What are you thinking?"
The news that Zhuyun had stayed in Cheng Zirui's dormitory for more than an hour immediately spread throughout the harem, causing jealousy. There were also a few idle people who had nothing to do and ran directly to Liang Yuexi, saying that it seemed that Zhuyun had praised Liang Yuexi, but in fact, she stepped on Liang Yuexi and won the emperor's favor.
Liang Yuexi didn't think about it that way, because she could see that Cheng Zirui to Zhuyun and Zhuyun to Cheng Zirui were not what they said.
The next day, the two young ladies mentioned by Zhuyun were directly elected to the palace as concubines, but Zhuyun was promoted from concubine to concubine.
Now some people panicked. Everyone in the harem knows that the facial features of these concubines can be patched together, and you can see the appearance of the Seven Princes' Mansion. Looking at Tao Jingshu, who was favored at the beginning, and Liang Yuexi, the newcomer, you can see Cheng Zirui's preference at a glance. But the two new ladies are very different from the women in the harem, and they are obviously not chosen for the appearance of the Seventh Princess.
Is the emperor enlightened or awakened?
What exactly does he want to do?
For a while, rumors spread in the harem, and after a while, it was said that Zhuyun heard that the emperor was going to choose a new concubine, and he was worried that his status would be in danger, so he posted it, and some people said that Cheng Zirui was going to envelop the other two courtiers, and Zhuyun was worried that he couldn't control others, so he pasted it again, and used his charm to entangle Cheng Zirui in the palace for an hour......
A variety of theories, in the end, all attributed to the possibility that Zhuyun seduced Cheng Zirui.
Tian'er told Zhuyun what she had heard, and snorted angrily. "What are those people like when they usually come to say goodbye to their mother, and what are they like behind their backs now. According to the slave maid, the next time they come over, the mother should clean up one by one. Also, the slave maid sees that the two new maidens are not trouble-free, so the maid should come to the horse first! ”
Zhuyun was amused when he heard it, "Where did you hear this?" ”
"That's what everyone in the palace says."
Zhuyun's eyes were calm, as if he had expected it. Tian'er chuckled in her heart, "Niangniang, you already knew that this would happen?" ”
Indeed, she knew that things would turn out this way the moment Cheng Zirui left her in the dormitory. Cheng Zirui left her to rub the acupuncture points for an hour, making people misunderstand that he spoiled her in the dormitory, and the next day he chose a new concubine and didn't go to spoil her, turned around and promoted her concubine position, and pushed her to the knife edge of the harem.
Cheng Zirui did it on purpose, this was to tell her to let her be less nosy in the future.
With such a grudgeful master, Zhuyun really has a headache.
"Tian'er, you go and call Liang Yuexi to me."
"Niangniang, Concubine Xi has been neglected for so long, and now there are such words, Niangniang, do you think she will still be obedient?"
Zhuyun didn't care, "Go and call." ”
Tian'er was so angry that she stomped her feet, she didn't want to, but she still had to listen to her master's words, and after going out, she directly brought Liang Yuexi back.
"Concubine Yun."
……
In the past, there was a pavilion in the Seven Kings' Mansion, and Cheng Zirui liked to go there to nourish his heart. Now in the palace, he still loves the clean pavilion in the remote place. Under the moon, he carried the white jade pot, and suddenly stopped when he walked outside the pavilion. There was already a person in the pavilion, wearing a plain dress, with a demeanor and a smile, like someone.
He was already drunk before he could drink, and he walked to the pavilion with rapid steps and hugged her directly into his arms.
"The Emperor's ......"
"Shut up."
Liang Yuexi gently pushed his chest, "The concubine didn't know that the emperor would come......"
"Didn't Zhuyun make you do this?"
Liang Yuexi's heart was half cold, but she still looked at him boldly and asked, "Then does the emperor want to punish me?" ”
The face in front of him coincided with someone in his memory, and Cheng Zirui became more and more reluctant to let go.
"I thought about it just now, but I don't think about it now."
The slightly cool lips imprinted hers, and Liang Yuexi's heart suddenly skipped two beats.
Zhuyun is right, that person is getting closer and closer, and Cheng Zirui's obsession is getting more and more crazy, and this is her best chance as a stand-in.
