Chapter 30: Rise
The Imperial Study.
"See the Emperor."
"Calm down, Nalan Aiqing."
Baili Mingyu waited for Nalan Lingyu to take the initiative to ask him, but after waiting for a long time, there was still no response, and he lost his patience and walked around the dragon case to Nalan Lingyu's side.
"Aiqing, don't you ask me why I'm so happy today?"
Nalan still lowered his head and did not move, and replied officially: "The emperor's private life as a courtier does not dare to speak falsely, and I ask Your Majesty to forgive me." ”
Looking at the calm Nalan Baili Mingyu, he was angry, he hated him the most like this, as if he didn't care about anyone and didn't take anyone in his eyes.
Didn't he want to know, then he just told him, he wanted to see if Nalan Lingyu knew that the woman he loved was still so calm under his knees for other men.
"The queen went to bed last night, and she has been pestering me, tossing all night, and she was late for the morning today, and I have never seen the queen so enthusiastic. I heard that Aiqing had a very good personal relationship with the queen before entering the palace, have you ever seen such a charming queen? ”
"The emperor misunderstood, the minister and the queen are just general friends, not a good personal relationship, but the minister wants to congratulate the emperor, so the queen must be harmonious." Nalan still looked breezy and calm, as if he was not talking about the person he loved deeply, but a stranger.
"Oh? Is it. There is nothing to do, Nalan Aiqing can step down. ”
"Wechen retired."
As soon as Nalan Lingyu withdrew from the main hall, Baili Mingyu pushed all the folds on the table to the ground, what a general friend! Is he really blind? This Nalan Lingyu can't stay in her harem with peace of mind if she doesn't get rid of Xia Qian for a day.
It's not that he hasn't seen her roundabout skills, he can scold you for scolding the sky in the last second, and the next second he sees that he immediately puts on a flattering face, if this woman is really settled, she will be evil.
When Nalan walked out of the palace gate, his nails had already dug into his flesh, and blood fell to the ground along his sleeves. Although I had thought of such a result, it was another thing to hear from others. Her pouring must not be voluntary, if she also has the ability to cover the sky with one hand, how can she let her suffer alone in this deep palace.
Since then, Nalan Lingyu has basically been away from home, and he has never liked to move around, but now he is at the house of other colleagues every day, which finally made him find a good opportunity.
General's Palace.
"General, Lord Nalan is here again."
"Tell him no." The servant hurried out again to spread the word.
"Lord Nalan, please go back, my master is inconvenient to see guests today."
"Brother Lao handed this over to him, and said that I was waiting outside." As he spoke, he gave him a piece of broken silver, and the little brother hurried in again when he saw the face of the silver.
After a while, he ran out sweating profusely, "My lord, please come in with me, my master agrees with you." ”
Just now, the master still looked impatient, and I don't know what method Lord Nalan used to make the master willing to see him again, it's really strange.
Nalan Lingyu was taken to the door of the study, and the servant stepped back, he pushed open the door and walked straight in.
General Hu Wei is a general with 500,000 heavy troops, and he was achieved after Xia Hou Ye handed over the military power in the summer war that year.
"Who the hell are you?" Hu Wei glared angrily, and the murderous aura filled the entire study.
Nalan turned around and closed the door as if he couldn't feel Hu Wei's killing intent, and arched his hand and said, "General Hu, don't be angry first, I'm not here to blackmail you anything, I want to cooperate with you." ”
"Humph! You say this without any evidence, why should I believe you! Hu Wei stared at Nalan with his hands on the table.
Nalan looked into his eyes without fear, leaned forward again, leaned his head and whispered, "Because we have a common goal." ”
"I don't understand what Nalan-sama means?" What does Nalan Lingyu want to do?
"Since I'm here, we might as well open the skylight and say something. General Hu wants to subvert the world, and I just want one in the palace, since we have a common goal, why not cooperate? ”
"How do you know?" Hu Wei rushed forward in three steps and two steps, drew his saber and put it on Nalan Lingyu's neck.
Nalan Lingyu gently pushed away the sword with her fingers, looked at him and smiled: "Lord Hu don't have to be nervous, if I expose you, I won't come back to you, besides, I came alone, can't Lord Hu see my sincerity?" ”
Hu Wei withdrew his sword and pondered for a while, so that it was indeed so.
"What qualifications do you have to work with me?"
"Because I have intelligence, and the general only has military power, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds for us to cooperate?"
"Why are you doing that?" Hu Wei looked at the white and pure Nalan and couldn't believe it, he was usually gentle and humble and polite in the court, and he looked independent from the world, saying that he was a half-immortal, how could he have a grudge against the person on the dragon chair?
"The hatred of taking his wife is not shared!" Nalan squinted his eyes and said such words, his whole body exuded grief and indignation, which made Hu Wei feel sad in his heart, no wonder people like him would be angry, this matter would not be able to stand by any man.
"Could it be Xiahou's daughter?" It is rumored that the eldest lady of the Xia family and Nalan have already made a lifelong agreement with each other, and originally thought it was a rumor, but it seems that this is true nine times out of ten.
"Didn't the general know, why bother asking." There was a touch of bitterness at the corner of Nalan's mouth, the world knew that he and Tilt had already promised each other for life, and the emperor also gave her to his son, and now his son still came to him to show off the bed, so how could he not hate?
"If the general doesn't believe me, he can expose me to that person now, Nalan has no complaints." He has already said it clearly enough, he is gambling, betting that Hu Wei will definitely be moved.
The sand of the hourglass was about to leak out unconsciously, Nalan sat down and drank tea quietly, he waited for Hu Wei's answer, which was very important to both of them, he had endured it for so many years, in order to overthrow Wule in one fell swoop when the time was ripe, but for so many years, his people had not been able to insert important institutions, so he had not done it for a long time, if it weren't for this, how could the princess of the previous dynasty be willing to be the side concubine of the son of the father and enemy.
"Okay, I hope Lord Nalan is really as useful as you say."
After waiting for so many years without a chance, maybe this time it is really feasible.
Nalan looked at Hu Wei and raised the teacup in his hand with firm eyes, this was done.
"I won't disappoint the general, then I'll toast the general with tea instead of wine."
"Good! Cheers! Hu Wei took a sip of wine from the teacup and drank it into his stomach, Nalan looked at the bold Hu Wei and smiled, this good tea was wasted.
Dumping, I finally have my own power, I can not only protect myself now, but also threaten him, as long as he dares to touch you, I will kill him at all costs.
Phoenix Palace.
A new day has started again, the concubines came to Fengxiao Palace to ask for peace step by step, and they all figured out the thoughts of the queen, she didn't like to be disturbed in the morning, so they all came late.
"Say hello to the Queen."
"Let's be flat."
Xia Qian looked at this group of warblers and Yanyan with a headache, every day when she came to her to ask for peace or not, chattering about this and that, it was all trivial things, it was really annoying enough.
"Niangniang, are you feeling better?"
Just as Xia leaned his forehead and sighed, he heard a voice of concern, but it was so familiar. As soon as I looked up, I saw Xia Qingcheng's face, but she was not as flamboyant as in the house, and her face was haggard, as if she was seriously ill.
"Is that you?" Didn't she wish she had to die by herself, how could she be so kind now, and she came first last time when she pretended to be dizzy, could it be that her conscience found out?
"You all retreat, this palace has been a little tired recently, Xia Zhaoyi just stays and waits." She wanted to see what tricks Xia Qingcheng wanted to play, this was also an old acquaintance, at least it wouldn't be too embarrassing to see each other.
"The concubine retired." Immediately, the Phoenix Palace was cleaned.
"Xia Chengcheng, what the hell are you going to do?" Xia Tingxin changed her posture and lay on the chair on all fours, except for the two of them in the hall at this time, only Qingzhu was there, and even Xia Tingcheng's maids were guarding outside, so she didn't have to worry at all.
Xia looked at her and stopped, she didn't know how to speak, or she didn't know what to say to make her believe that she was truly remorseful.
"Qingzhu, come and take off my phoenix crown, it's going to die, and my neck is going to be crushed." Qingzhu looked at her master helplessly, other people's girls want to enter the palace, she is good, as the most noble woman in the world, she is extremely disgusted with this position, I am afraid that such a person will not be able to find a second one in the world.
Xia Tingcheng watched that the thing she longed for the most was now abandoned by her, and she couldn't help but feel a little sad, how good it would be if she had seen through this truth earlier.
"Don't say it yet?" Xia Qingcheng glanced at her, waiting for her to speak, why is she dumb now? Where did the posture that was about to die with her go?
"Sister, I'm sorry for you, I know it's wrong, I'm here today to ask for your forgiveness."
Xia Tingcheng suddenly knelt down and caught Xia Tingcheng off guard, hey, this is a bitter drama? But it's not like it, could it be that her acting skills have improved a lot?
"Are you trying to trick me in a different way?" If so, then a cool song will be given to you, and Miss Ben will not eat this set, and she will be afraid of the well rope after being bitten by a snake for ten years.
"Sister is not like this, I really know that I am wrong, I was too persistent, I always thought that all men should be tempted by me, but how can a man not be in the twilight, but now it is too late to repent."
"Really? When you treated Miss like that, do you think we will still believe you? "This little girl always loves to fight, and she likes to rush to the front, and she doesn't know whether it's good or bad with such a jealous and hateful temperament.
"Since you've already learned that you're wrong, then I can't believe it, right, okay, I know, you can go back."
Yesterday, the emperor had to find a way to tell Ah Ling about sleeping here, what if he knew that he had misunderstood, he was not in the mood to deal with Xia Tingcheng here, and Xia Tingxin gave an eviction order.
