"Girl, wait a minute, the miscellaneous family will go and say goodbye." Liu Zhong said with a smile.

Shangguan Jingyu nodded in respect.

Liu Zhong turned around and entered the Hall of Morality, and when he entered, Emperor Xiao Shengzheng was sitting alone on a high platform, holding a pen and drawing something. Seeing this, Liu Zhong stood at a safe distance with interest, and didn't dare to snoop forward easily, "Your Majesty, the Shangguan girl is here, and the person is outside at the moment, do you want to ......?"

"Let her in." Xiao Sheng didn't look up, and continued to hold the pen without knowing what he was drawing.

"The minions obey." Liu Zhong slowly withdrew from the Hall of Morality.

Outside, Shangguan Jingyu was still standing in place, and he was not as flustered as an ordinary woman, but fell generously. Seeing Liu Zhong come out, he smiled back.

"Let's go in, the emperor is waiting!" Liu Zhong's sharp voice was a little yin and yang.

Shangguan Jingyu didn't pay attention to this, thanked him, and walked into the door quickly.

When I entered, the door behind me closed.

She didn't dare to raise her head, but walked straight to the center of the Hall of Morality, then bowed down and knelt down, "The courtier, Shangguan Jingyu, see the emperor, I wish my emperor long live Jin'an." ”

Xiao Sheng stopped writing, and then slowly raised his head, "Shangguan Jingyu?" ”

"The courtiers are here." Shangguan Jingyu lowered his head, without the emperor's permission, he was not allowed to spy on Long Yan. This truth has been taught by my father a long time ago, and the last time she entered the palace, she knew it very clearly.

"Get up and speak! When you raise your head, you don't have to be so rigid if you are all your own family. Xiao Sheng let out a long breath and straightened up and sat there.

Shangguan Jingyu got up and slowly raised his head, not daring to look directly at the emperor, and his gaze fell on the carpet in front of Xiao Sheng.

"I look like I've seen you somewhere." This is a sentence that Xiao Sheng repeated again.

He said this earlier, but unfortunately he can't remember it.

Now seeing Shangguan Jingyu, Xiao Sheng still said this.

But where have you seen this face? If there was such a woman around him, he couldn't forget it. Not to mention anything else, Shangguan Jingyu's face is really beautiful, and I am afraid that there will be no second such beautiful face in this eastern capital.

It is not an exaggeration to say that she is abundant without flesh, delicate without bones.

It's just that for the royal family, too beautiful women are always a disaster.

It is a sin for a woman to be born too beautiful, it is a disaster for a red face, and it is a misfortune for a red face.

There are countless examples of this throughout the ages.

Shangguan Jingyu lowered his eyes and said respectfully, "The last time the courtiers entered the palace, they were summoned by the noble concubine, and the emperor saw the courtiers in the imperial garden. ”

Xiao Sheng shook his head, is that so?

It doesn't seem to be.

"I don't know what the emperor is going to do when he summons his courtiers into the palace at night?" Shangguan Jingyu went straight to the point.

Xiao Sheng came back to his senses, and didn't bother with the insignificant, and held up the paper on the case, "Have you ever seen such a thing?" ”

Hearing this, Shangguan Jingyu stepped forward, took the paper in Xiao Sheng's hand and looked at it for a long time, and finally just opened a pair of blank eyes, looking at the emperor in confusion, "Dare to ask the emperor, what is this?" ”

"You don't recognize?" Xiao Sheng was stunned.

Shangguan Jingyu shook his head, "The courtiers have never seen it, and they don't know what it is." My father, it seems, there is no such thing. ”

Seeing that her expression didn't seem to be fake, Xiao Sheng narrowed his narrow eyes slightly, "You really haven't seen it?" ”

"The courtiers don't dare to deceive the emperor." She saluted respectfully.

"Forgive me, I don't dare to bully you." Xiao Sheng frowned, "This is the dragon and phoenix seal of the first emperor, who was exiled outside the palace in his early years and disappeared. Recently, someone came to the newspaper and said that it had something to do with you. ”

Shangguan Jingyu knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, the courtiers are wronged." What this thing is, the courtiers really don't know anything, let alone have seen it. Please the emperor to see! ”

"And who around you has ever seen this thing?" Xiao Sheng asked.

Shangguan Jingyu shook his head, "The minions around the courtiers all grew up with the courtiers, if the emperor doesn't believe it, he can go and investigate." ”

Xiao Sheng casually threw the paper into the brazier, and the blue flames instantly burst out, burning the paper completely.

From the corner of his eye, Xiao Sheng glanced at Shangguan Jingyu on the side, his expression was calm, as if he was really out of the matter, and it had nothing to do with it.

Is she pretending to be too good?

Or does she really not know?

It's just that this innocent and flawless face doesn't seem to be fake.

"I ask you one last question, do you have any ...... with the third prince?"

Before he finished asking, Shangguan Jingyu had already kowtowed heavily, "The emperor forgives the sin, and the courtiers dare not disobey the guidelines and do such an unsightly thing." The courtiers and the three princes are innocent, please ask the emperor to find out. ”

Xiao Sheng narrowed his dangerous eyes, "Really? ”

"The courtiers are innocent." She really didn't do anything with Xiao Dong, but she just made a promise to each other.

"Then why did the third child ask me for you?" Xiao Sheng was cold.

Sure enough, capriciousness is a king.

Turn your face, just in the blink of an eye.

"Your Majesty, the love is a promise between two hearts, and you can't help it. Courtier-" She looked up, Xiao Dongli dared to say so bluntly in front of the emperor, why did she hide it. Being born in one place, dying in one place, is just the worst outcome.

"Go on." Xiao Sheng sat down.

Shangguan Jingyu took a deep breath, "The courtiers and the three princes are in love, but they abide by their duties, they are courteous, and there is no way to transgress the rules." ”

Xiao Sheng was stunned, a woman dared to say anything in front of him?

The next moment, Xiao Sheng patted the case, "Shangguan Jingyu, you are so bold, don't you know that he is the third prince, and I have already promised you to the second prince?" According to the seniority, you are his second sister-in-law! ”

Shangguan Jingyu nodded, his tone was calm and waveless, like Xiao Dongli at that time, "The courtiers know." Because of this, we will abide by our duties and just wait for the emperor to give the courtiers and the three princes a chance. ”

"Opportunity?" Xiao Sheng scolded, "Then do you know that the emperor's destiny is like a mountain." I am a golden mouth, and the holy decree has been issued, how can I go back on my word? It's absolutely impossible for you to be with the third child. ”

"Has the emperor ever loved someone?" She asked.

"What?" Xiao Sheng was stunned, and suddenly remembered the woman in the portrait. The portrait is full of dust, but the face of the person in the painting is becoming clearer and clearer in the mind. After many years, I still haven't forgotten the slightest.

Shangguan Jingyu half-hung her eyebrows, the candlelight hit her long eyelashes, smudged with a little dazzling, and a charming silhouette fell on her lower eyelids.

She knelt there, without sorrow or joy, and was so quiet that it was distressing.

She said, "Does the emperor know that unforgettable feeling? It's as if I've identified such a person in my life, and I want to be with him, grow old, and raise my eyebrows. Don't ask for vigorous, only for the quiet years. ”

"Maybe the emperor will think it's ridiculous, because the emperor has three palaces and six courts, and there are countless beauties. There has always been only the ladies who love the emperor deeply, and there is no need for the emperor to bother with it. ”

But in his eyes, I am the only one, and in my world, he is the only one. We don't care about the imperial status, we just want to hold each other's hands and go on for the rest of our lives, that's all. ”

She looked up, "The emperor will think it's ridiculous, won't he?" Because the emperor's love is so high, and what we want is only the happiness that ordinary people expect most. It is not glory and wealth that can be replaced, nor is it fame and fortune that can be compared. ”

"You have to know that if he is not the third prince, and you are not Miss Xiangfu, the two of you will not be happy at all when you are together." Xiao Sheng sneered, "Without wealth and glory, you are nothing." Firewood, rice, oil and salt are never as simple as you think. ”

"So is the emperor willing to give us a chance?" She asked.

Xiao Sheng said coldly, "This is absolutely impossible. You have to marry the second, and the third...... I have my own arrangements. ”

Shangguan Jingyu knelt there, "The courtiers retreated." ”

"Shangguan Jingyu!" Xiao Sheng said, "What's wrong with the second child?" ”

She said, "It's not bad, it's just that when the third prince appeared, the courtiers just happened to be moved." ”

How can we make it clear that love is a thing?

Xiao Sheng remembered Xiao Dongli's face, and then remembered the woman. When I first saw it, I smiled back, and even if I dreamed about it in the middle of the night, I would often think about it.

"Shangguan Jingyu, do you know that you are disobeying your will? Do you know what the consequences will be if you don't obey the order? Xiao Sheng asked.

She nodded and said respectfully, "The courtier knows. If you do not comply with the decree, you should be punished. If they are implicated, they can be punished for disobedience, and their families will not be spared. ”

"If you know, why do you dare to speak?" Xiao Zan frowned.

Shangguan Jingyu took a deep breath and raised his head, and finally stared into Xiao Zan's eyes, "Because the courtiers don't want to bully the king." The emperor treats the official family with kindness, and the courtiers and their fathers are prepared to Mu the emperor's grace, and everything now is given by the emperor, so the courtiers dare not deceive the emperor. The courtiers would rather ask for guilt than deceive the emperor. ”

Xiao Zan let out a long breath, this girl's courage is very similar to Shangguan Feng, and her brain is good enough.

If you don't care about Xiao Dongli, if you marry Xiao Dongming, you may be able to start a business.

It's a pity that she lost her heart.

Even if he marries Xiao Dongming, he may not really help Xiao Dongming.

Rather than that, it's better to ......

But...... He would never let go so easily.

You don't have any jokes, it's not just talking.

Shangguan Jingyu didn't know how she left the Hall of Morality, probably because the emperor brushed her sleeves away, and she walked out of the Hall of Ethics alone. The sky outside was dark, and snow was falling from the sky.

"It's snowing." She spread her palms.

Why is there an inexplicable uneasiness in my heart?

I've never wanted to see him so much.

Thinking of going crazy!

Walking in the dark palace road, she was thinking, what kind of heart did Xiao Dongli have at that time to walk out from here? At that time, he was still so young......
