Chapter 11: Speculation

Murong Jin's body was stunned, and a trace of unnaturalness flashed in his dark eyes, "The concubine guessed." ”

"Guess?" Sima Mo's dark eyes narrowed slightly, "Then how did you guess?" ”

"Your Majesty doesn't like seafood and other foods, so the concubine dared to guess that Your Majesty is allergic to seafood things, including crab roe."

Sima Mo wanted to see a flaw in Murong Jin's face, but Murong Jin's tone was too natural and didn't look like he was lying, so Sima Mo suddenly fell into deep thought.

There was silence in the room, except for the ticking of the hourglass.

At this moment, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps outside the house, followed by a soft voice.

"Your Majesty, the slave has been looking for you for a long time." It was Gonggong Jiang beside Sima Mo.

"Didn't I tell you not to follow me?"

"Your Majesty forgives your sins, the slave is really worried when he sees Your Majesty you come out alone."

Sima Mojun's face was stained with displeasure, and he said coldly, "Can't I even go out and scatter alone?" ”

"The slave knows that he is wrong, and please calm his anger." Gonggong Jiang bowed for a while.

"Your Majesty, as the head of the chamberlain, it is understandable that you are worried about Your Majesty's whereabouts, and it is not too early for the concubine to see it, please go back and rest as soon as possible."

Murong Jin's words seemed to be humble and polite, but in fact, he was giving an eviction order.

Sima Mo said coldly, "Do you want me to go so much?" ”

"The concubine has no intention of doing so."

Seeing Murong Jin's deferential appearance, Sima Mojun's face was stained with a layer of frost, and the next moment, he brushed his sleeves away.

Seeing this, Gonggong Jiang hurriedly followed.

Looking at Sima Mo's departing back, thinking of Sima Mo's suspicion just now, Murong Jin's hands hidden under his sleeves couldn't help but ooze a thin layer of sweat.

……

……

After noon, the sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves and casts on the red brick floor of the courtyard.

Murong Jin sat on a stone chair shaded by a banyan tree, and a pair of black eyes fell on the book he was holding.

"Master, please use tea." Murong Jin's personal palace maid Yun'er came out of the room with a tray and placed the teacup on the stone table.

Murong Jin put down the book in his hand, picked up the teacup and took a sip, suddenly, a sigh fell into Murong Jin's ears, Murong Jin raised his eyes and glanced at Yun'er, "What's wrong?" ”

"Master, you have been in the palace for two years, but Your Majesty has never set foot in this courtyard, Yun'er feels sorry for the master, if the master enters the palace and does not meet the death of the Empress Dowager Dou, according to the master's conduct, Yun'er will see this reward sooner or later, but it's a pity......" In the end, Yun'er sighed helplessly again.

Hearing this, Murong Jin was stunned, he sent Yun'er back too early last night, otherwise how could Yun'er not know, in fact, the young emperor had already set foot in this courtyard last night, "Yun'er, you must know that harem women have always stood high and fell painfully, and now it is not a good thing that we can stay in this quiet place every day." ”

Yun'er never understood the meaning of these words. Every woman who enters the palace hopes to be able to gain the emperor's pity, so she has been on the rise since then, but the master's thoughts are different from others, and she actually thinks that it is a good thing to stay in this Li courtyard, which is really incomprehensible.

……

Recently, Sima Mo was displeased because of the repeated invasions of the Beiyue Kingdom.

waved away all the maids and eunuchs around him, and Sima Mo stepped out of the imperial study.
