Chapter 220

"What do you think of the king?"

Xu Yanjin suddenly asked such a question, the voice was so low that it was almost drowned in the sound of the rain, and the servant thought he heard it wrong.

"Your Majesty is very good. He has made great contributions during these years of fighting abroad. Without Your Majesty, there would be no prosperity and peace in Daliang today..."

What the servants are talking about is everyone's evaluation of Xu Yanjin. Xu Yanjin has always taken the world as his own responsibility, but this time he suddenly felt lonely. He spared his life to protect the world, but he couldn't even protect the people he liked...

The phrase "Xu Yanjin, I mean it" has been lingering in his ears and can't be shaken off.

Xu Yanjin felt a little regretful. Should he have been firmer at the time, either directly refusing or accepting, it was better than the pain now.

I don't know if Youning will still think about him...

Xu Yanjin hopes not to, You Ning will go to bed tonight, after which she will become the emperor's concubine, the emperor values ​​her very much now, part of the reason is Lord Qi, but let the emperor know that You Ning has two minds , no matter how much you like it, you can't accept it.

No man can accept a woman's betrayal, let alone that person is the emperor...

The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Even though the servants kept holding umbrellas to protect him from the rain, Xu Yanjin's court clothes were still soaked, but he couldn't feel the slightest chill.

Xu Yanjin just drenched in the rain all night, and the servant stayed by his side for the whole night. Xu Yanjin went to court as usual the next day, but the servant fell ill immediately after being drenched in the rain all night.

The physical gap between the two is quite large.

Xu Yanjin has been unusual in going to court these past few days and has stopped expressing his opinions. He seems to be a completely different person.

The ministers in the court and even the emperor felt that Xu Yanjin in front of him was a little strange.

But what the emperor wanted was such a military minister. The military minister only needed to lead him to win the battle. As for other affairs in the court, it was better not to participate.

Because Xu Yanjin is the future son-in-law of the Fu family, Master Fu cared about Xu Yanjin a few words.

But after asking for a long time, I couldn't ask anything.

They were not very familiar with each other after being officials in the same dynasty. If they want to know more about Xu Yanjin, it seems that they have to ask their own daughter.

After Master Fu returned home, he called Fu Shiqian to his study, and asked her about Xu Yanjin's recent situation and if anything happened.

For a momentary change, something must have gone wrong.

But Fu Shiqian couldn't figure it out when he was asked.

After returning from Xu Yanjin's disappearance, the number of times she went to Yan Wang's mansion has indeed increased a lot, but she usually wanders around the mansion at random, and the number of times and time to see Xu Yanjin is not much. Xu Yanjin seems to have a lot of business to be busy with.

Fu Shiqian had to pretend to be a sensible princess, so naturally he couldn't delay Xu Yanjin's business.

Anyway, she is already familiar with the people in the mansion, and no one can threaten her status. The maidservants in Xu Yanjin's mansion are really pitifully small, and the few maids in Xu Yanjin's mansion are not too young. I heard from the housekeeper that they will leave the mansion soon. The family went to get married, and there are still a few people who have feelings for the palace, so they will be assigned in the palace. There are many servants in the palace who have not married wives.

Everything is normal, Xu Yanjin is also normal every day, she seems to be no different from before.

So why would my father ask this?
"Did nothing happen?"

Master Fu was very alert. He knew what Xu Yanjin must have gone through, but his daughter didn't know.

My daughter looks very smart on weekdays and observes many things very carefully. Why can't she see anything at the critical moment?

Fu Shiqian shook her head. She felt that her father seemed a little disappointed in her. Could it be that she had done something wrong?

In order to know what happened to Xu Yanjin, Fu Shiqian went to Yan Wangfu more diligently in the next few days.

Almost every day he stayed in Yan Wang's mansion, except that he had to go back to the mansion in the evening, so as not to stay overnight and cause gossip.

But with such a frequency, Fu Shiqian still attracted the ridicule of others, saying that she had already regarded herself as a princess before she got through the door, and she put on airs of a princess everywhere, what should she do if she didn't show up when she saw it?
Fu Shiqian just listened to it and let it go, he didn't care about those servants and outsiders.

She has more important things to do, and this is a marriage granted by the emperor. It is not easy to dissolve it. If Xu Yanjin does not marry, it will be disobedient and will be punished by beheading.

Fu Shiqian could also feel that Xu Yanjin had indeed changed somewhat from the previous few days, but she really couldn't see the reason for the change.

She also asked the servants in the mansion about it.

The servants didn't know much about it either, they only knew that after Xu Yanjin came back from the palace that day, something was not normal, he was drenched in the rain all night in the yard and asked some inexplicable questions.

It seems that the change happened from then on. Could it be that something happened to Xu Yanjin in the palace?
No matter how powerful Fu Shiqian was, she still couldn't get her hands into the palace, so Mrs. Fu could only find a way to inquire about the affairs in the palace.

After so many days of inquiring, all she got was useless news. Mrs. Fu also heard that there was a conflict in the palace that night.

I heard that there was a disagreement with the emperor about one matter, and the emperor didn't want to discuss it anymore, so he went to Chuxiu Palace, and then Xu Yanjin left.

From this point of view, Xu Yanjin was disappointed in the emperor?That's why you don't want to worry about it?

The most terrible thing about courtiers is numbness and obedience. They all have to put forward their own suggestions and find ways to persuade the emperor in order to make the court and the people better
-

Xu Yanjin went to court as usual, and as soon as he entered the palace gate, he was attracted by the little eunuch rushing to the palace gate.

It seems that this little eunuch was the one who went to take the beautiful ladies into the palace before. Then why is he coming to the palace gate if he is not serving the beautiful ladies in Chuxiu Palace?
Xu Yanjin was just curious, so he glanced back, and it was this glance that made him see a person he had been thinking about day and night.

The curtain of the carriage was only opened for a moment, but Xu Yanjin felt that he saw You Ning.

And isn't the person sitting outside the carriage also Ping Wu, You Ning's personal maid?

Xu Yanjin froze on the spot, unable to move.

Could it be that Youning didn't enter the palace a few days ago?

If You Ning hadn't entered the palace a few days ago, then she naturally couldn't sleep with her.
Does he still have a chance?
After entering the palace, Xiu Nu couldn't continue riding in the carriage. This was against the rules, and Youning didn't insist on it. It was just a few steps, and she wasn't that weak yet.

Ping Wu helped You Ning get off the carriage, You Ning felt a burning gaze staring at him.

She glanced around and happened to see Xu Yanjin not far ahead.

How is it such a coincidence?
