At this moment, the emperor had just put down a notebook.

The great eunuch Liu Jin replied: "Your Majesty, Miss Murong will see you outside the palace." ”

The emperor raised his head and frowned slightly, "What is Changya doing here?" ”

Liu Jin pondered and said: "Miss Murong was waiting outside the palace, and His Royal Highness King Huan was also there, and I happened to meet Lady Lu and go back, and the two of them talked for a while. ”

The emperor pondered for a moment and said, "In other words, King Huan met Lu Ruoqing under the guise of Changya. ”

Liu Jin didn't say much, but he didn't refute either.

The emperor was displeased: "Let King Huan and Changya go back, I don't see you." ”

----That's his attitude.

Whether it is King Huan or Murong Changya, his son and niece can't make trouble in front of him.

Liu Jin went out to find Jixiang and instructed: "Go and tell His Royal Highness King Huan and Miss Murong that the emperor is not available at this time, please ask them to go back." ”

The auspicious response went.

When King Huan and Murong Changya heard this, their faces changed slightly, but they hurriedly retired without saying anything.

The emperor was angry, and it must have been unwise to continue to ram the muzzle.

Soon after they left, the emperor finished reviewing the recital and summoned Lu Ruoqing alone.

Lu Ruoqing entered the hall in a proper manner, and saluted: "Greetings to the emperor." ”

The Emperor asked, "Are you still used to it?" ”

Lu Ruoqing lowered her head and replied: "Mama Jin instructed me before, what to do, I came according to the rules, and it went well." ”

The emperor asked her to present today's court transcript.

After reading it carefully, he said, "Yes, remember clearly, your hairpin is also very beautiful." ”

Lu Ruoqing hurriedly said: "Thank you for the emperor's compliment." ”

The emperor put down the court records in his hand and suddenly asked her, "What did King Fang Caihuan say when he saw you alone outside?" ”

Lu Ruoqing was startled.

Of course she knew, the emperor knew about her meeting with King Huan, but she didn't expect that the emperor would ask directly.

At this time, the hall was empty, except for the emperor, it was her.

---- turned out to be deliberately arranged.

The emperor asked again, "Don't want to say?" ”

"The lower officials don't dare." Lu Ruoqing immediately knelt down.

She quickly considered it in her heart, no one should have heard her conversation with King Huan at that time, but ......, it doesn't mean that the emperor can't use other methods to verify, and knowing one is probably no problem.

Therefore, she can't deceive the king.

Lu Ruoqing bowed her head and said, "His Royal Highness King Huan said that he is willing to leave me a side concubine position in ten years." ”

There was a moment of silence for the Emperor.

Lu Ruoqing felt an invisible pressure, the more quiet she was, the more she felt breathless.

After a while, the emperor asked, "You agreed?" ”

Lu Ruoqing swallowed her saliva, "The lower officials don't dare to offend His Royal Highness King Huan, say it's ......, go back and think about it." ”

The Emperor smiled, "Consider? That is, you are still willing in your heart. ”

"It's not." Lu Ruoqing immediately denied it and explained: "Xia Guan just doesn't want to refuse in person and make His Royal Highness King Huan annoyed." ”

"And then?"

"After that, ten years is a long time, and His Royal Highness King Huan will naturally forget about his subordinates." Lu Ruoqing replied.

In fact, she thought, it shouldn't take more than ten years.

King Huan is now close to her, just because he is worried that she will become a female official in front of the palace and favor Xiao Shaoxuan.

Just wait for Xiao Shaoxuan to leave, and King Huan will be indifferent to her.

The emperor pondered for a moment, but did not ask anything more, and ordered, "Kneel down." ”

Lu Ruoqing suddenly felt like she had been pardoned.

She kowtowed, got up and stepped out through the side door.

Walking out of the main hall, a gust of cold wind blew in my face, and I couldn't help but shiver.

She wrapped her cloak tightly and walked through the courtyard, and as soon as she arrived at the back door, she saw Mama Jin who had been waiting for a long time, and gave her a hand stove, "Is Lady Lu okay?" Look at your pale face. ”

Lu Ruoqing held the stove in her hand, and the slightly hot temperature made her feel better.

She shook her head and motioned to Mama Jin not to ask more, "Go back." ”

She thought, anyway, she confessed to the emperor and made it clear.

The emperor knows it in his heart, and if she ......, she won't really have an entanglement with King Huan, so she should be fine.

When she arrived at the house, Ti Ying came over with a cup of hot tea, "Here you go, warm up." ”

Lu Ruoqing took the tea, but didn't drink it, but looked at Ti Ying, remembering that she had said that Xiao Shaoxuan was leaving.

Xiao Shaoxuan will leave the capital sooner or later, right? When to leave? Did he and her decide that they had no fate in the past and this life?

It was wrong to meet in the previous life, but it was fate to meet in this life.

Lu Ruoqing laughed at herself in her heart.

Perhaps, ...... will only accompany her in the future for ten years of slowly lonely time in the palace.

.

In the capital, somewhere in a secluded jewelry store.

Xiao Shao-hyun is waiting for the guests.

A moment later, there was a "squeak" sound on the door, and Jiang Linyue came in wrapped in a hooded cloak.

She was blessed, "I have seen His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes." ”

Xiao Shaoxuan listened to her jerky voice and asked first, "Are you okay with speaking now?" ”

Jiang Linyue replied: "No problem, I'm not deaf or dumb, I was also a normal child when I was a child, but my throat was delayed by a high fever for more than ten years, and now it has recovered." ”

Xiao Shaoxuan nodded, "That's good, I don't have to communicate with you." ”

"Your Highness, please command."

"Jiang Lun dived into the water to save you, how do you plan?"

"I'm ......" Jiang Linyue's eyes flashed gloomily, and lowered her eyes, "What can I plan?" I have no father or mother, but I am an orphan girl fostered in the British government, and I can't climb up to Prime Minister Jiang's grandson. ”

Xiao Shaoxuan smiled lightly, "Do you want to marry Jiang Lun?" ”

Jiang Linyue shook her head, "It's not about whether you want to talk about it or not, but everyone knows about the contact I had with him in the water." If you don't marry Jiang Lun, won't marrying someone else make your husband a laughing stock? I had no choice but him. ”

She has a coldness that women of the same age do not have, as if she looks down on everything.

Xiao Shaoxuan asked again: "Then now Jiang Lun doesn't plan to marry you, so you just forget it?" ”

Jiang Linyue smiled bitterly when she heard this, "What else can I do?" Speaking of which, Jiang Lun can be regarded as going into the water to save me, and I should thank him. Can he still make a fuss because he didn't marry me? Then what have I become? ”

"And what are you going to do next?"

"I have begged my uncle, vowed not to marry for the rest of my life, and asked him to send me to another courtyard in the villa to raise me for the rest of my life."

"Your uncle agreed?"

"No, my uncle plans to tell me about a family affair in another province, but ......, I don't want to."

"You don't want to?" Xiao Shaoxuan raised his eyebrows and asked.

"I don't want to." Jiang Linyue answered categorically and without hesitation.

"Why?"

"Your Highness, you are an incomparably noble prince and a man, so naturally you can't understand the difficulties of my orphan girl. Not to mention, I can't tell Jiang Lun about anything clearly, but I don't have this matter, who cares if I live or die if I marry to another province without support? ”

"You want to stay in the capital."

"That's right! Rather than going to another province to entrust a stranger, serving my in-laws, taking care of my sisters-in-law, and working hard for my husband and children all my life, I would rather stay in the capital villa and die alone. ”

Xiao Shaoxuan couldn't help laughing, "It's rare to see a cold-hearted woman like you." ”

A touch of gloom flashed in Jiang Linyue's eyes, "I'm not cold-hearted and cold-hearted, but helpless, and I don't want to put my life into it because of the thought of love." ”

She took a deep breath and sighed: "Stay in the capital, the three generations of masters of the British Mansion will give me a mouthful of food." ”

Xiao Shaoxuan said, "But after all, it is a lifetime of loneliness and old age, and it is not comfortable." ”

Jiang Linyue couldn't help but look up at him, "Then what else can I do?" Could it be that His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes has a better way. ”

"You marry Jiang Lun."

“…………”

"I have a way to let you marry Jiang Lun smoothly."

"Your Highness." Jiang Linyue's eyes flashed with a glint of hope.

"You told Jiang Lun that you don't ask for affection and affection, but only for a place to settle down. Regardless of whether Jiang Lun has a heart, or whether there are groups of concubines in the future, you will not have the slightest care, as long as the honor of your wife. ”

“…………”

"After you marry Jiang Lun, whether you are willing to live a cold life by yourself, or are you willing to please Jiang Lun and give birth to a child, it is up to you to decide."

"This ......, can it work?" Jiang Linyue asked with some hesitation.

"You ask yourself first, would you like to?"

"I do!" Jiang Linyue immediately replied, and then smiled bitterly, "As His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes said, how can it be compared to marrying a good husband after a lifetime of loneliness and old age?" ”

Jiang Lun is the grandson of Prime Minister Jiang Cheng, with outstanding character, extraordinary talent, and a good and mellow temperament.

---- is almost the best criterion for choosing a mate.
