The emperor sat cross-legged on the couch alone for a long time, and he didn't even ask Wanning to serve. And Wan Ning knelt obediently outside, holding the sword that the emperor had not taken away with both hands respectfully. The person who came was the emperor, and she couldn't ignore his existence, so she always cheered up and listened to the movements inside.

"Wanning, you come in and talk."

Wan Ning took Yan'er and Lian'er into the room, and when they entered, the three of them still knelt down respectfully.

The Emperor looked up slightly at the three of them. "The others go out, and I will say a few words to Wan Ning."

Yan'er and Lian'er said in unison: "The slave obeys the order." As soon as he finished speaking, he got up and walked out.

The emperor stared at Wanning for a moment and said, "You put down your sword and hold it strangely tired." ”

Isn't it? It's weirdly tiring. Wan Ning's hands stiffened, and she used all her strength to put the sword down carefully, for fear of any bumps.

"Get up." The Emperor commanded in a low voice.

Ke Wanning was still kneeling, and said, "Please punish the emperor." ”

"Wanning, when will your problem of resisting the decree be changed?"

Resisting the decree can't be taken for granted, Wan Ning was so frightened that she was about to get up. But the emperor said, "I have to think carefully about how to punish such a thing." Kneel as you like before you chase. ”

The emperor's thoughts are really difficult to grasp! Saying this directly confused Wanning, and she still couldn't get up in the end. Look at the emperor again, he kept his head down, and he didn't know what he was busy with. Didn't look at Wan Ning at all.

Since he said that he would continue to kneel, he had to continue to kneel.

After a moment, he finally raised his head: "I heard that you have been waiting for me for a few days, and the sword has been raised for several days, what do you mean?" I'm going to kill you? ”

"The emperor is angry, hurts the dragon body, and the slave deserves death!"

"Do you care so much about my dragon body?"

"Of course. You are the emperor of the world, and your dragon body must not be damaged in the slightest. Otherwise, you will not be able to live with the people of the world. ”

A little woman has such a mind. This is quite admirable. But it was clear that the emperor did not want Wan Ning to care about him because he was shouldering the heavy responsibility of helping the world and the people.

He lay down on the couch and felt a little more relaxed. There are fewer words tonight, probably because I am too tired during the day.

He waved his hand a few times and motioned for Wan Ning to come forward. Wan Ning had no choice but to kneel and move forward a few times, catering to the emperor's condescending momentum.

"What is there that I can't compare to him?"

Wan Ning looked up in surprise. This sudden question is really hard to answer. It can be seen that the emperor now concludes that he is rejecting him thousands of miles away because of Brother Ziang.

She thought for a long time and said, "Your Majesty, you are magnificent, loyal, benevolent, wise and decisive,...... You are a role model for men in the world. How can he be compared with the Son of Heaven? What's more, there is no way to compare people with each other. It is precisely because you are too perfect, Your Majesty, that no one can compare with you. ”

"Do you still want to tell me that such a perfect man still has a woman he can't get?"

"Your Majesty, the slave didn't mean that. But you have a point. Be kind to the slave and maid because you are 'loyal and forgiving', and understand the slave's father who has contributed to the community, and will give him a little bit of thin face. The so-called forgiveness is to say that the emperor is big-hearted, and many people and many things will be treated like this. ”

"Loyalty? You use this word well, it seems that you can't be spared this time. ”

"Slaves don't dare."

The emperor lay there on his back completely, pondered for a moment, and said, "I have been here for a long time, and I haven't even drunk my saliva. Is that how you entertain your guests? I have just had dinner, and you come over to serve the tea, and if you serve it well, I will spare you this time. ”

"The slave obeys."

There are good reasons to get up. Wan Ning got up, took out the best tea leaves in the palace, skillfully brewed a cup of hot tea for the emperor, and brought it to his eyes.

"I saw that when you just took the tea, you were a little hesitant. What kind of tea did you give me? ”

"Your Majesty, you should know." Wan Ning handed him the tea.

The emperor sat up straight, looked at the cup of tea carefully, and then reached out to take it. Unexpectedly, just by taking advantage of the situation, he naturally held Wanning's hand.

Wan Ning didn't react much, which surprised him. The softness of his palms even made him want to be more greedy. The emperor looked at her with a soft gaze, smiled, and asked slowly, "Don't you refuse?" ”

"In this situation, the slave maid thought of one thing."

"What's the matter?"

"Say it, Your Majesty, don't be angry."

"You dare to make a fuss about my throne, what else do you dare not say? Also, someone dares to say the word 'no' to me, Li Wanning, do you have a long heart? ”

Wan Ning's face showed a little shame, and she said in a low voice: "The emperor forgives the sin." ”

"If I disappear one day, then you must be the one who is not angry. Okay, let's talk. ”

"Why did the emperor do that? Long live you. ”

The emperor listened to Wanning and took the teacup.

"The slave maid thought of the time when she was in the house, and when her father was still there, the slave and maid served tea to her father countless times."

Wanning's words were a little hurtful, and of course the emperor knew what she meant. Could it be that the feeling that the dignified emperor gave her was just like the love of the elders and parents for the younger generations?

He looked at the few tea leaves floating in the teacup from time to time, floating and heavi, which made people's hearts very uneasy. The tea is still steaming, and the emperor's mood at the moment is like this whole cup of tea.

The emperor is the emperor in the end, and he will not write any emotions on his face. In just a moment, he calmed down and said, "Fang Shan dew buds." If I'm not mistaken, this tea was your father's favorite drink. ”

"Your Majesty, your memory is so good. How the slave wants to go back to the old days and serve tea to her parents three times a day. ”

Listening to what Wan Ning said, the emperor's mood at the moment suddenly became very complicated. He took a big sip from his teacup. After drinking, he didn't return the cup to Wanning, and the lid scratched the wall of the cup one by one, and it was clattering. It's the only sound that can be heard at the moment.

The two fell silent.

After a long time, Wan Ning's voice sounded: "The feelings of men and women in the world will be fragile. Just such a sentence caused the emperor to think deeply, and even she herself recalled it several times.

"If one day, the emperor doesn't like slaves and maids, how should you spend this long night in the palace? Slaves and maids prefer to honor you as if you were a father. Even if the emperor doesn't take slaves and maids seriously. Knowing that the emperor has many heirs, the slaves and maids naturally dare not climb high. ”

The Emperor took a sip from his teacup again, this time tasting tea. The moment he put the teacup on the small square table, he saw Wan Ning crying.

"Crying for what?"

"Because I saw the emperor drinking tea, the slave and maid missed their father even more."

The emperor didn't say anything, and lay down on his back again on the couch: "You can go over to the talented people, what's the matter?" Is it to hide from me? ”

Wan Ning hurriedly shook her head: "No, Your Majesty." You have commanded it, and the slave and maid will obey it. ”

The emperor seemed to lie there with peace of mind, and for a moment, he slowly closed his eyes.
