Saints of Grace Verse 9

Li Xuanyin lowered her eyes, her mood was light, under her long black hair was her upturned nose, her slippery side face, and then down was a piece of snow white hidden in the palace skirt.

Without noticing, she tugged at the folds of her brocade boots for him, her fingertips brushing his ankles softly.

He watched, suddenly stretched out his hand, and rubbed his fingers against her face, his finger bones gently scratched, and the warm white jade wrenched fingers, leaving a faint red mark. The fan-like eyelashes fluttered, indicating that she was not as calm as her face.

The emperor's eyes were cold, as if he was just playing tricks on a disobedient kitten, pinched it twice, and returned to the plump lip flap.

"Get up and change my clothes."

Wanfu raised her eyes, those watery eyes did not hide half distractions, clean and clear, weak and innocent, it was too good to be bullied.

Li Xuanyin's eyes deepened, and he couldn't tell for a while, this woman herself was like this, and she still deliberately did it in front of him.

"The slave obeys." She spoke back, her eyebrows drooping, meek, just the work of a minion.

Li Xuanyin pulled his lips suddenly, and withdrew his hand carelessly, but the darkness in his eyes gathered more.

He got off the footstool, and the woman in front of him took the robe from the mahogany shelf and tied his sleeves for him, and in the afterglow, a plain white soft wattle brushed his shoulders and arms, smoothing the folds on it, and the movements were gentle and orderly.

Like a feather, it leaves when touched.

She stood on tiptoe and went to take care of the hem of the emperor's clothes.

Li Xuanyin's eyelids were lowered, and he was looking into the woman's eyes. The four eyes touched, the movement of the neckline stopped, and the warm fingertips, unintentionally or unintentionally, fell under his neck.

A little inexplicable implication spreads.

It has been planned for a long time, and if there is nothing.

Wanfu's eyelashes moved slightly, and she was about to take her hand away, her waist sank, and she was suddenly grabbed by the emperor's outstretched arm and hooked into the man's arms. Her back stiffened, and her heart pounded.

In a moment, it was as if I had returned to the day of the drizzle.

It was raining, and the two kissed, slightly drunk and ambiguous.

The emperor also felt it, and his sharp black eyes were undisguised and nostalgic for the woman's eyebrows, eyes, red lips, and the small patches of snow-white skin.

He spoke slowly, breaking all of Wanfu's grooming disguises.

"Isn't it fun to want to get away with it?"

The emperor's cool banter made Wanfu stunned, and her lightly beating eyelashes revealed a trace of her nervousness. At this moment, in my ears, there was a faint sound of talking, and it was Lu Changzai who was back.

Wan Fu clenched her sleeves tightly, quickly stabilized her mind, and remained motionless in the emperor's arms.

Li Xuanyin stared at those eyes, and finally saw a trace of panic on that obedient little face, but it was quickly hidden.

He narrowed his eyes, smiled in his eyes, clamped her jaw, and the white jade wrench made a red mark on the snow skin, and whispered hoarsely, "What do you want?" ”

Wanfu raised her eyes and looked at the emperor, the king who sat on the throne of the world had a playful attitude towards everything, including her at this time. Because you can't get it, because of the temptation and seduction from time to time, it will make the emperor impatient, and you have to keep this thing in your palm.

What does she want? She wanted too much, but what she should answer at this time was what the emperor wanted her to say.

The long silence made the emperor dissatisfied, he didn't have so much patience, he wasted too much emotion and time on this woman, this feeling of being out of control made him very unhappy, he had never had it, and no one dared to do it.

The little white face of the woman in her arms became more and more distinct in the dim light, and the emperor asked again without pity, "Speak." ”

Wanfu's eyelashes trembled, and her lips moved slightly, "The slave wants to ...... Emperor. ”

Her voice was as soft and soft as ever, her eyes were as clear as water, she was innocent, but she spoke boldly, if Chen Dehai heard it, she would secretly admire this girl's courage, and she looked at her silently and said such earth-shattering words.

Li Xuanyin thought that she wanted fame, holy favor, and a place in this harem, but she never thought that she would say such a thing. He was also ready, thinking that she was so scheming, and reluctantly gave her a place in Baolin, and the palace maid went to Baolin, but others couldn't ask for it.

However, this response did make him a little novel and hooked up more interest in his heart. But he is the emperor, no matter the previous dynasty or the harem, it should be controlled by him, and he can't let a slave climb on the head.

He picked up the playfulness in his eyes and loosened the woman's waist, but he didn't let go of the finger bones of her jaw, and even used a little bit of strength to sneer: "If you want me, you have so much courage!" ”

When the words fell, Li Xuanyin let go of her, his hand hung to his side, and he pushed the wrench of his thumb without a trace, and his face became pale again, as if Fang had not said those words just now, and that ridiculous thing had not happened.

Wanfu lowered her eyes and stepped aside respectfully, only to feel a layer of cold sweat in her palms. The day she first met, perhaps by accident, this emperor was far from being as foolish as she thought.

Lu Chang came in and saw this situation, the emperor changed his clothes, his face was cold, and he stood aside and waited in a polite manner. She looked at it with her eyes, and felt that something was wrong, but she could not see anything, the emperor had passed her and walked out of the dormitory.

Chen Dehai followed, but he couldn't help but look at the Wanfu girl who was sending him off behind him, and was secretly surprised in his heart, he couldn't wait, so he wanted to go in and urge again, but when he saw the situation, he was so frightened that his body shook and hurriedly retreated.

The heart was pounding hard, this Wanfu girl really had some means, she was not a concubine who had no palace maids before, but the emperor was just a whim, and after sleeping once or twice, there was no sound in front of the flowers and bones in the harem.

It's the first time that a woman has made the emperor so interested. This method is really clever, step by step, as if it has been calculated, it seems that the day of Miss Wanfu's promotion is not far away, and he should be ready to congratulate him.

Although Chen Dehai saw that scene, what made him wonder was that the emperor's face did not look good, even more ugly than when he was aroused from the night. He was serving beside Luan Yu, and suddenly heard a sentence coming from inside, "Be bold!" ”

Chen Dehai was so frightened that his body trembled, and he didn't know who he was talking about, he didn't want to ask for hardship, so he pretended to be deaf and didn't hear it.

The holy driver left, Lu Changzai lay back on the bed, she was recalling the situation in the palace, did the emperor really have no intention of Wanfu? She didn't believe it, otherwise why was Wanfu the only servant in the dormitory. It's just that she really can't see why the emperor hasn't given Jiang Wanfu a position until now.

Lu Changzai lowered her eyes and gently stroked her lower abdomen, she hoped that the emperor would accept Jiang Wanfu. After almost falling into the water, she clearly knew that she could not protect the child alone. As long as Jiang Wanfu doesn't give birth to two hearts, she doesn't mind and makes a ladder of adult beauty by herself.

Chapter 12

Yizhou 800 miles urgent, due to Ning Guogong's method of building a dam, the downstream reservoir flooded, flooded the surrounding villages and fields, countless casualties, the disaster and local officials bullied, caused the people to riot.

The king of northern Henan galloped at night and rushed eight hundred miles to the imperial case.

"Brother Huang, my brother has sent the state ministers to temporarily suppress it, but the matter of repairing the dam should not be delayed sooner rather than later, and if it drags on any longer, it will only stir up more resentment among the people."

Li Xuanyin picked up the letterhead sealed with fire paint, and after reading it, his face gradually sank, "Chen Dehai." ”

Chen Dehai looked at the emperor's face, and hurriedly approached, "The slave is here." ”

"Has the person behind Ning Guogong been found?"

After listening to the question, the matter was urgent, how dare Chen Dehai delay, and replied: "Dali Temple is secretly strictly investigating, and there are already some eyebrows. ”

When the king of northern Henan heard this, he suddenly said, "Brother Huang is suspicious...... The drawings for the construction of the dam were not made by Ning Guogong. ”

Li Xuanyin stood up, put the waist card on the royal case, Chen Dehai understood, bowed down and took it in his hand, and handed it to the king of northern Henan.

"You take my token and go to Dali Temple, find someone and hurry to Yizhou."

"Brother obeys."

The king of northern Henan withdrew from the main hall, Chen Dehai buried his head and pretended to be dead on the side, he didn't dare to come out of the atmosphere, the emperor was angry, he wouldn't have that look.

The king of northern Henan is the emperor's brother, after the emperor seized the throne, several princes were executed, and the outside was released, and there was such a one. The king of northern Henan is talented, intelligent, capable of writing and martial arts, and does things properly, and it is expected that there will be no mistakes. It's just that this moon is in the middle of the sky, and there will be an early dynasty tomorrow, and the emperor can't sit in this main hall all night, and his body is still important.

He thought about it again and again, but still persuaded him hard, "Your Majesty, the prince has done things properly, and he will definitely be able to calm the violence in Yizhou. ”

Li Xuanyin is not worried about the Yizhou violence// chaos, at present, there is peace in various places, and there is only this disaster, and there is no big storm. He leaned back on the dragon chair, his eyes slightly closed, but he did not feel sleepy.

This disaster is a wake-up call for him, once a son of heaven and a courtier, it is time to change those old things who are deceived and concealed in the local area.

Li Xuanyin thought for a long time before getting up, "Rest." ”

If Chen Dehai received amnesty, he immediately summoned people to come in and wait for the emperor's placement.

……

As soon as the next morning passed, several close ministers of the court were invited to the main hall again.

Chen Dehai waited one by one, and inquired with him privately, "Father-in-law Lao Chen knows everything." ”

Chen Dehai is also a person who serves the court's ministers and the master of the harem, shrewdly, and smiled, "Lord Liu, the emperor's thoughts, how can a slave who serves tea and water know." ”

The adult surnamed Liu couldn't say anything when he saw it, so he snorted in the past, but he took a sip in his heart, you don't know who else knows about this, this rootless person has more hearts than anyone else.

Among them, there are old ministers who have followed the previous emperor, because they saw the current affairs and defected in time, so they were not implicated and have today's glory.

The emperor's diligence is really diligent, but at the same time, they are really unbearable, three days and two ends were left to the Qiankun Palace to discuss politics, sometimes at noon, the stomach has already been empty, but the emperor still seems to be hungry and tired to discuss with them, until they really can't stand it, the stomach grunts, the emperor let them go.

If they encounter unfinished political affairs, let them stay in the East Pavilion for lunch, and continue to discuss after eating, they really can't stand this old bone. When the first emperor was there, he could still have time to look for flowers and ask willows, but now he only looks forward to returning home as soon as possible, and he is crying with joy when he sees his mother-in-law, how can there be those free time.

The door of the palace opened, and they almost took a deep breath before entering, who knows what the emperor has to do, and how long he will have to talk.

When the sun reached noon, the door of the palace opened again, and this time several ministers almost helped each other out, their faces were like vegetables, and after listening to the emperor's decision, they really felt that the sky had changed.

The performance appraisal of officials, which has never happened since the founding of the dynasty, means that those officials who are mixed in it and try to obfuscate the past will be even more difficult.

……

On this day, Yinshuang Zhai sent out a few palace people who carried baskets, and they wanted to go to the imperial garden to pick begonia petals, pound out the juice, and make kodan for the master.

The group was led by Qingzhu, and when they arrived at the Imperial Garden, Qingzhu separated the people for a few waves, and let Wanfu follow him.

Qingzhu has been in the harem for many years, and he is very good-looking, and he is even more polite to Wanfu. Wanfu knew the reason and didn't break it.

At the end of summer, the palace people replaced the imperial garden with a new crop of flowers, and Wanfu picked one of the petals and threw it into the basket.

She bypassed a corridor and was about to pick one, when she heard a faint voice, Qingzhu came over, she stretched out her finger against the corner of her lips, signaling silence.

"Chen Guiren looks at Lu Chang unpleasantly, what are you angry with me? Yinshuang Zhai is surrounded like an iron bucket, Chen Guiren has the ability, so he will go in, why do you instigate right and wrong with me. The woman's tone was mocking and mean, so angry that Chen Guiren almost jumped to her feet.

"You!" Chen Guiren pointed at Qi Guiren's nose, Qi Guiren is not easy to bully, and beat her off with one hand, "What do you mean, you and I are Lu Changzai, just let you bully?" ”

Qi Guiren's background is neither high nor low, but her temper is hard, especially for Chen Guiren who is so jealous and messing around, she will not be polite, her mouth is aggressive, and Chen Guiren can't say a word.

Behind the rockery, the most taboo in this palace is the slave with long ears and mouths, Wanfu didn't want to continue listening, and Qingzhu was about to leave, and there was movement in front of her, she was in a hurry, and pulled Qingzhu into the hole of the rockery.

It was Ning Guifei who approached from afar, and when she heard the two of them talking from a distance, she couldn't help but roll her eyes, "Yo, who is it, this palace can't be clean after sitting in the pavilion for a while, and it's so noisy that it's annoying." ”

When Chen Guiren saw that it was Ning Guifei, his arrogance was reduced by half, and he hurriedly knelt down to salute, and Qi Guiren knelt down.

The palace people were wearing satin umbrellas, and Concubine Ning glanced at the two of them, "What are the two nobles arguing about?" Seeing that neither of them spoke, she casually pointed to Chen Guiren.

Chen Guiren swallowed, "The concubine and Qi Guiren had a dispute, Qi Guiren was jealous that Lu Changzai was pregnant, and the concubine was persuading her to ......"

"The surname is Chen, you don't have much blood and spews people!" Qi Guiren has never seen someone who can push and shove like this, his face is not red and his heart is not beating.

Ning Guifei sneered, "So, does Chen Guiren not want to conceive a dragonborn?" ”

Chen Guiren was shocked and hurriedly knelt down, "There are no concubines." ”

"Oh." Concubine Ning seemed to be tired, and she was too lazy to talk nonsense with the two, "Didn't the queen teach me to serve the emperor first, you are still fighting here all day long, causing chaos in the harem." This palace is ordered by the emperor to assist the queen in ruling the six palaces, and it should be a punishment for you, and you will have a long memory. ”

"Since you are a nobleman, you should kneel here, and kneel until you reflect."

The rockery where Wanfu was hiding was hidden, and the two heard the conversation outside clearly, glanced at each other, and left lightly.

The two picked flowers as usual, and kept silent about each other's talents.

Qingzhu is an old man in the palace, and he understands this rule and can control his mouth. She saw that Wanfu was also silent and didn't see anything.

I was secretly surprised in my heart, this kind of thing, if it was replaced by another palace person who had just entered the palace, she would not be able to help but say a few words after a while, even if she was uncomfortable in her heart back then, she couldn't help but talk to the little sisters who entered the palace at night. But this Wanfu girl has a pale face, such a heart and wisdom, she really can't find it.
