"You're worried about me, right?" But I'm going to tell you, I'm definitely not going to have an accident! I knew that he would have something to say to me below, so I leaned quietly into his arms and listened to him speak quietly, like a mirror.

"About two years ago, two assassins appeared in the Dragon Yin Palace, if it weren't for Su Qiaoyun and Ah Qi, I am afraid I would have died under the sword of the assassins. That's when I realized how important it was to cultivate a group of guards to protect myself. In the past two years, I have not only expanded the Yingge Academy, but also selected a group of people there to train them to become dead soldiers, which are divided into three major organizations. "Listening to him talk about the assassins of the Dragon Yin Temple, my heart jumped.

"Today's Yingge Academy's goal is too big, so I distribute these people in various places, and the shadow guards around me, although there are no Xiao Zuo and Xiao You, there are still others! So my safety has always been guarded, and anyone who wants to touch me unless they kill those dead soldiers first, so a mere Su Qiaoyun can't threaten me at all. ”

He whispered in my ear in a voice that only the two of us could hear, as if afraid to be heard.

I also know that this is an extremely confidential matter, and this is also his final bottom line, and he told me, is this an absolute trust in me?

I turned around and put my arms around his waist and chuckled softly, "So you're so good to her?" If her use value is gone, will you kill her? ”

"Do you want me to kill her?" He didn't answer the rhetorical question, seeming to ...... Hesitating.

"If I wanted you to kill her, would you?"

"If you say kill, I'll kill."

said it firmly, but I couldn't tell whether it was true or not, so I faintly evoked a thin smile, "How can I have such a ruthless heart to want her to die, after all, she loves you so much, and she has never wanted to hurt you." You're not a demon, you have humanity, and I'm sure you won't kill her. ”

His body was a little stiff, and he was silent for a while, and just when we were all silent, he suddenly opened his mouth to say something, but then he heard a voice, "Your Majesty, master, lunch is here." ”

I immediately got up from Xiao Jincheng's arms, stood in front of the window and looked at the team led by Xinyue and Chunlan, followed by five minions holding the imperial food and walking cautiously along the road, their steps were sharp and careful, for fear that one of them would slip on the ice if they were not careful.

This time, I instructed them to only cook home-cooked side dishes, and only me and Siu Jincheng ate together, so there was no need to be extravagant and wasteful.

"Jincheng, you've dealt with the government for a day, so you're hungry." I took his hand and sat down on the rosewood table, he looked a little uncomfortable, maybe he wanted to say something to me just now but was disturbed by the sudden arrival of the new moon.

Xinyue and Chunlan tried the meal on the table with the dishes and chopsticks, and Xiao Jincheng held my hand and took the next words, "Don't be suspicious anymore, I only have to use her." ”

Chunlan's chopsticks stiffened, as if wondering who the 'she' in his sentence was talking about.

I glanced at her with my peripheral vision, and she realized her gaffe, and hurriedly grabbed a piece of eel and put it in her mouth and chewed it.

The heart I had been hanging on slowly let go, and I was looking at Xiao Jincheng, "I know, I know." ”

He seemed relieved to hear my words, "Eat." ”

Then he personally picked up the jade chopsticks for me and handed them to me, and my chopsticks first stopped at the ginseng stewed eel, "This is the eel?" Bring such a fishy thing too? ”

"The slave has just tasted it, the imperial kitchen has gone to the fishy smell, the meat is smooth and delicious, and the master can take it." Chunlan replied modestly.

Xiao Jincheng snorted coldly, "Don't you know that she is not in good health, and the doctor forbids her to eat too oily things?" How do you do slaves? I'll get rid of it now. ”

"The emperor is angry, and the slave should die." Chunlan immediately knelt down, and Xinyue also trembled and removed the plate of eel, "This is all done by the imperial chef, and the slave doesn't know about it." ”

When I came back these days, I found that Xinyue's feelings for Xiao Jincheng were more hidden, if I hadn't known it a long time ago, maybe I wouldn't have been able to see her thoughts about Xiao Jincheng!

However, it's okay like this, she'd better keep hiding, otherwise, she'll be ...... with Chunlan

"Forget it." I waved my hand indifferently and calmed down.

After lunch, I sent Xiao Jincheng away, and I heard the news that Chunlan died suddenly.

The medical officers all examined the corpses, and they all said that they died by mistakenly ingesting poisonous things, Xiao Jincheng was furious when he heard this, and ordered someone to investigate.

In the end, it was confirmed that it was the plate of eel that was cooked, and it was a dead eel, so Chunlan's abdominal pain at that time was unstoppable, and she died after a while. Xiao Jincheng removed the head chef of the imperial dining room and killed the imperial chef who was in charge of cooking the eel, and the matter was over.

I quietly picked up the book of "Records of Clearing Grievances" that Ning Xiang found for me in front of the table, turned a page, and smiled at the words: The blood of the eel coagulates after death, and it is easy to be poisoned when eaten, so it is inedible.

I swiped the words between my fingertips, and I was still worried that the eel would be tried by the crescent, but ...... Even if Xinyue eats it, it can only be regarded as her bad life and suffering for Chunlan. Who called them both spies?

This was just a mistake in the imperial dining room, where the dead eel was cooked by mistake and sent to the master. They should only be glad that I didn't accept it, not suspect that it was a long-premeditated murder.

Besides, Chunlan is just a palace maid, who would investigate for the sake of a mere minion!

After Chunlan's death, he found out that there was a problem with the eel, Xiao Jincheng immediately put down the government in his hand and came to the dormitory, and before I could speak, he had already hugged me tightly in his arms, "Fortunately, you are fine, fortunately you didn't eat eel." ”

His voice was so sincere and worried that I couldn't help but be moved and tears fell.

Fool, you are the king of a country, and you are afraid that something will happen to me. Then why did you put your heart on poisoning me in the first place!

On Chinese New Year's Eve, the heavy snow had fallen for three days and finally stopped.

Today, many monks chanting and praying for blessings came to the palace to chant around the palace day and night, and they did not disperse until night. Xiao Jincheng invited Shula Heavy Ministers to the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet at the palace, including General Zhao, General Xiao Zuoxiao, King Yelüqi of Qi, and six Shangshu, Shiye, and Shizhong. The harem came Concubine Jing, the third lady, Mrs. Qi, the Wu noble, and the Su noble.

The people who came were all the important ministers of the court and the favorite concubines of the harem, and I always felt that my identity did not match this occasion when I sat under Su Qiaoyun, and I was a woman with no grade.

However, I also know that this is a little bit of Xiao Jincheng's persistence, so I also accept it calmly, even if I am separated by anyone, I can only silently mourn for these people in my heart!

The hall was full of singing and dancing, and the important ministers of the court drank with each other, knelt down from time to time, and toasted and congratulated Xiao Jincheng.

Mrs. Qi, who had been silent on the side, suddenly rose, looked at a place behind General Zhao below with a smile, and said softly, "I heard that Zhao Ziyan, the daughter of General Zhao, is a famous talented woman, and it just so happens that there is a literary champion sitting here, and the two of you have to compare each other's literary talents." Mrs. Qi said that she was talented, and the people around her all bowed their heads and agreed, urging the two of them to make a poem.

Zhao Ziyan? I followed Mrs. Qi's gaze, and sure enough, a slender and beautiful figure appeared behind General Zhao, with her appearance, her appearance became clearer and clearer, and Zhao Ziyan in front of her did not have the previous arrogance and conceit, but became much quieter!

Unexpectedly, I saw the old man today......

Seeing her charming appearance, for a moment, I seemed to have returned to the beginning, when she went to Zhenbei Wangfu to borrow it.

Looking at her clothes and hair bun, I still don't have a marriage match, could it be that she appeared with some purpose today?

When I think of this, my eyes can't help but sink......

I don't know why, but now when I see her, I suddenly feel in danger, and I intuitively think that Zhao Ziyan is many times higher than Su Qiaoyun's danger value......

Zhao Ziyan walked out slowly, watching her father ask his opinion, and only after seeing that his father agreed, he came to write a poem. Zhao Ziyan smiled beautifully, her eyes rolled, and she blurted out, "The moon is full and the moon is missing, the moon is missing and the moon is full, and the sun is seen at the end of the night." Flowers bloom and fall, flowers fall and flowers bloom, and spring begins after the harsh winter. ”

One of her poems overlapped with words, causing everyone around her to sigh for her poem.

Even I secretly sighed at her talent, this adverb can be said to be both neat and elegant, there is no gorgeous modifier in the word, but it discloses the regret that the moon is cloudy and sunny, and there is a sense of entering the world and getting rid of the dust.

"Master Mu, it's your turn." There were officials around who suddenly shouted, it seemed that Zhao Ziyan was going to take advantage of this banquet to return to everyone's sight......

I wonder if this is also Concubine Jing's arrangement?

I quietly glanced at the bright yellow figure sitting on the upper seat, and after seeing his calm face, I withdrew my gaze, and as everyone raised the corners of their mouths, they turned their eyes to Mu Tianyan.

Mu Tianyan calmly arched his hand in Zhao Ziyan's direction, and said humbly and politely, "The beautiful mountains, the beautiful water, the beautiful wind and the moon, the beautiful land of the thousand autumns, the infatuated and the infatuated dreams, are all idiots." ”

Yes, yes, yes, the smile on my lips deepened.

Looking at Zhao Ziyan's slightly stiff smile, I almost laughed out loud!

I didn't expect Mu Tianyan, this kid, to sarcastically mock Zhao Ziyan by using the right words......

However, because Mu Tianyan was neat and tidy, and the people around him were not clear about Zhao Ziyan and Xiao Jincheng, they didn't think much about it, and when Mu Tianyan's words fell, there was a cheer around, and even Xiao Jincheng showed appreciation, "Master Mu and Miss Zhao's talent are indeed comparable." Xiao Jincheng pondered for a moment and then said, "Master Mu is twenty-eight years old this year, is there a marriage match in the family?" ”

Hearing this, my heart tightened, and my eyes quickly looked at Xiao Jincheng......

This girl doesn't want Zhao Ziyan's old cow to eat tender grass, right? Although the age difference between them is not much, it is ...... I'm sorry I really accept incompetence!

Mu Tianyan was also stunned when he heard this, as if he had guessed what Xiao Jincheng was going to say next, and replied gloomily, "I am not married for the time being." ”

"Then I should show you a marriage?" After Xiao Jincheng finished speaking, he seemed to sweep his gaze towards me, and that kind of gaze suddenly made me understand...... He arranged Zhao Ziyan to participate, which is the purpose!

This man will never allow the people in his control to get out of his control......

Thinking of this, my heart couldn't help but sink, and I looked at Mu Tianyan's still immature face!

"Back to the emperor, the minister will not ......" He immediately left the table and said, as if he had the intention of refusing, but he quickly touched my eyes and swallowed back the unfinished words, "Respect the holy order." ”
