The court is treacherous, and the harem is cold.

Father-in-law Luo knelt on the ground, his eyes were indifferent, and he couldn't see any color changes.

Emperor Qi sat on the chair, sipping tea, and he couldn't see joy, anger and sorrow.

Gonggong Luo was a little stunned, but he didn't expect that at this moment, Emperor Qi still dared to drink the tea he poured, and still dared to be alone with him.

Emperor Qi said indifferently: "Hong Feng is a smart person, and he didn't say much about this letter in the court, nor did he say who the person who accused you was. What do you think? ”

Gonggong Luo's face was still as flat as a pool of stagnant water, and only when the emperor raised his eyebrows and was impatient, he replied: "Long live Lord, who can hate the old slave so much and touch such a confidential matter, except for Ping'er, I am afraid that there is no one else." ”

Emperor Qi nodded and said, "You are self-aware. If it weren't for Luo Ping's denunciation, I wouldn't have known that I had a silverfish around me, and in the long run, it would have knocked down my great rivers and mountains. ”

Gonggong Luo was noncommittal, thinking that it was the emperor's thunder and anger, but he didn't expect that the emperor did not publicize this matter in the court.

In fact, Wei Zhixing knew about this, Hong Feng knew, and Luo Gonggong knew, but the only one who didn't know was Luo Ping, who had made a "great contribution", and he didn't even know when he killed his relatives and when he "denounced" Luo Gonggong, in his impression, he just sent a letter, and it was written in ink that had been replaced with octopus juice.

Emperor Qi sighed softly, unbelievable, and then said indifferently: "What the court said is true or false, and the consequences are serious, you know your name, if you really want to betray me, it will not be the trivial matter that the court said." You have served the Son of Heaven for three dynasties, and you have watched me grow up, so I don't need to say that you also understand what I am thinking and worry, and share my worries. ”

A trace of tears appeared in Gonggong Luo's eyes, he watched the emperor grow up, and naturally understood the emperor's character, Princess Moon can become a nun in vain, and even the future King Luo can spare his capital crimes, only himself, I am afraid that he will not survive.

Even if the court suspects that the details of the emperor's life experience are not revealed by him, they will be detained on his head in the end, and with his departure, the real will become fake, and the identity of the royal family can no longer be tarnished, just like the sand in the eyes, he will die.

Gonggong Luo bowed deeply and said: "The old slave deserves his crimes, and he deserves them." A thousand cuts are hard to atone for. ”

Emperor Qi smiled indifferently and said: "Thousands of knives are spared, let's cut a whole corpse by yourself, five days later is the Winter Tibetan Festival, and you won't be hungry on the Huangquan Road." ”

"Thank you, Lord Longne!" Gonggong Luo knelt on the ground, crying silently, such a look, it is already the greatest grace of Emperor Qi, leave a good reputation, leave a whole corpse, leave on the day of celebrating the harvest and storage, and in the next life, he will definitely give birth to a good family.

Seeing that Emperor Qi had closed his eyes and recuperated, Gonggong Luo secretly retreated and returned to the Qingxin Institute, but saw a little eunuch looking panicked indoors.

After asking, I learned that on the way back to Dali Temple, everyone was besieged by a group of people of unknown origin, and the ministers who had helped the king of Qiyang County in the court died in an instant, but the king of Qiyang County was safe and sound, unharmed;

Cheng Yue was also seriously injured and was carried to the He Yuan, known as the first imperial doctor, who was sentenced to rescue for an hour, and finally declared Cheng Yue dead;

Almost all of them concluded that this assassination was the murder of King Luo, and he wanted to turn over the affairs of the court, and all the assassins' swords greeted everyone except the king of Qiyang County, including Mingyue, mercilessly.

In the end, only Mingyue and Qiyang Junwang survived.

In order to ensure the "safety" of the prisoners, Emperor Qi ordered the two to be escorted to the palace and guarded by the Imperial Forest Army.

Father-in-law Luo couldn't help but stand still, like a wax man, and swallowed his saliva for a long time and asked with difficulty: "Yin Mingyue has entered the palace?" Where to bet? ”

The little eunuch replied firmly: "The little one ran into Xia Qianhu who was escorted, and I heard him complain that the most unfortunate place should be Lixian Palace." ”

Gonggong Luo's original sad face suddenly dissipated, all the depression and ambiguity, at this moment, there was a little surprise, why did he want to cut himself after five days, why did he still retain the power of the chief manager within five days, why did the minister who helped King Luo die mysteriously, why Cheng Yue died of serious injuries, and why Yin Mingyue was escorted into the palace, as if everything was for the sake of one thing that had been said.

Father-in-law Luo couldn't help but smile, Huangquan Road, similar to Huangquan Road, is always accompanied by death------ either you die or I die.

Qi Zhao is no exception. Like all emperors, he is ruthless and fierce.

Wei Zhixing gave him advice outside the palace, eradicated King Luo, and died nine lives; Emperor Qi hated Wei Zhixing in the palace, complaining that he did not do his best to be loyal in the past, but now he is loyal, but for such an insignificant peasant girl.

This hatred and resentment came so suddenly and unbelievably.

And the consequences of this resentment cannot be fulfilled in Wei Zhixing, so Yin Mingyue has to bear it, and this "most culprit", the one who will accept Wei Zhixing's thunderous anger in the future cannot be the emperor, so it can only be played by Gonggong Luo.

Luo Gonggong didn't think it was a pestle, and there seemed to be a premonition in the dark that the variables of this matter were too great, like a gambler, maybe it was a complete defeat, a loss in the whole game, maybe it was a dead wood in the spring, and then accumulated.

Who can tell the things of this world clearly and clearly?

Father-in-law Luo smiled warmly and said, "Go and inform Luo Ping of the imperial dining room that Lixian Palace needs a big supplementary banquet, and I want him to send it over in person." ”

The little eunuch hurriedly said yes and hurried away.

Luo Gonggong was stunned for a moment, walked to a Buddhist shrine, lit three incense, muttered something in his mouth, and inserted the incense into the incense burner, then reached out and pulled out a luminous bottle in the dark under the Buddhist shrine, and stroked it like a treasure for a long time, but he never dared to open the lid, and his mouth seemed to be happy and seemed to be stunned: "The miscellaneous family is worthy of the Luo family." Fortunately, I got a whole corpse and became a ghost. ”

Gong Luo cherished the porcelain vase into his arms, and tears overflowed his eyes.

.......

Mingyue nestled tightly in the corner of the bed, feeling cold, her teeth were chattering, and the silk curtains, like ghostly shadows, made people feel uneasy. In the corner of the hall, the candle flame that is extinguished is the only comfort and warmth in this Lixian Palace.

After a while, the door of the hall opened, and a burst of aroma overflowed, followed by the sound of ping-pong dishes touching the table, and then a low voice replied: "Your Excellency, please use supplements." ”

The voice seeped into Mingyue's heart like a mountain spring, Mingyue was stunned, and then stumbled off the bed, ran to the man like a smoke, and said in surprise: "Luo Ping, it's you?" ”

"It's you?!" The man was also extremely shocked, and then he was hugged tightly by the girl, arched over like an insect and said: "What kind of ghost palace is this, not only the palace maids and guards don't have it, but they don't even have a stove cover, and they freeze me to death." ”

The corners of Luo Ping's mouth rose, and he wanted to hug the girl with both hands, but suddenly a lightning bolt seemed to explode in his brain, pushing the girl aside and hurriedly running to the door of the palace.

The door of the hall was closed, and no matter how much it was pushed, it couldn't be opened, and the half-yin and half-yang voice of Father-in-law Luo came in: "Ping'er, what my uncle said still counts, how to do it is all in your thoughts, tomorrow the mother-in-law will come to the physical examination, whether it is life or death is also a line." ”

Luo Ping's face turned pale in an instant, and he looked back at Mingyue, who had already pushed Luo Ping away from her unpleasantness to the back of her head, and began to eat the food in the lunch box with both hands.

Lixian Palace belongs to the last three palaces, not far from the imperial dining room, so the food is still very warm, and the bright moon applauds.

Luo Ping returned to the table with a dark face, snatched the chopsticks in Mingyue's hand and said, "Mingyue, don't eat them, these are for men to make up for their bodies." ”

Mingyue saw that she couldn't grab the chopsticks back, so she simply grabbed three or four soft and glutinous slices of meat with her hands, stuffed her mouth, and replied vaguely: "People are about to die, at least they must be a full ghost, men and women have two eyes and one mouth, you make up for me, and everyone will make up for it together." You come along, too. ”

Mingyue naughtily stuffed a piece into Luo Ping's mouth, smiling like a trick.

Luo Ping couldn't help but sigh and said, "Only you, you will smile when disaster comes." ”

Mingyue burped, but still refused to give up a cup of soup, and said to the lake: "Waiting for death is a day, waiting for life is also a day; It's a day to be happy, it's a day to be sad, it's better to want to open some, just like now, it's legitimate to eat and drink well, regardless of whether it's a big supplement or a small supplement, or even arsenic and crane top red. ”

Luo Ping was amused by Mingyue's mouth of oil, and wiped the oil star on Mingyue's mouth with his finger and said, "Then, do you want to die or live?" If there was a chance to live, would you give up for the persistence you have always adhered to? ”

"! Where does the persistence come from if you don't live?! You have to live first. You have a way, talk about it! What did the eunuch outside the door say just now? Tomorrow, what does it mean for the mother-in-law to verify the body? Isn't it up to the executioner to verify the identity of the head? How to let the mother-in-law come to test? Isn't the executioner in the palace different from the outside of the palace, is it a mother-in-law? ”

Luo Ping's face turned pale, and he put together the fur that covered the meal and prevented heat dissipation, turned it and draped it on Mingyue's body and said, "With me here, how can I let you die?" Don't dispose of you, you broke yourself first. ”

Mingyue touched her pregnant and round belly, her face finally flushed a hint of red, and she quibbled: "It's all because the things you make are so delicious!" That's right, he has become the imperial chef of the imperial dining room, good guy, it is equivalent to gilding further study, and his status will be doubled when he leaves the palace in the future! ”

"Uh", a burp rushed out, especially loud in this lonely and silent harem.

Luo Ping looked at the flickering candles, and finally mustered up the courage to say: "Mingyue, if, if, if ......"

"What if?" Mingyue couldn't help but wonder how Luo Ping, who had always been bright, could be so stumbling.

Luo Ping took a deep breath and finally mustered up the courage to say: "If there is a person who wants to protect you like Wei Zhixing, wants to rescue you like Wei Zhixing, and wants to take care of you for the rest of his life like Wei Zhixing, but he has done things that hurt you, you, will you forgive him?" ”

Mingyue snorted lightly: "Same as Wei Zhixing?" Is his name Wei Zhixing? ”

"Huh?" Luo Ping couldn't help but be stunned, and then realized that in Mingyue's heart, I am afraid that there is only Wei Zhixing in his heart, and no one else can replace him.
