Rebirth: The imperial concubine is no longer jealous, and the emperor panics

Lu Lingchuan did not pass the sedan chair, but took advantage of the night wind, spread his long legs, and walked quickly to Xingning Palace.

Wang Dafu dragged his lame leg and trotted, barely able to keep up.

Today, I was also tired of living. First, I went to Zichen Palace to deliver rewards, implying that the emperor did not want to accompany the queen. Later, he used political affairs as an excuse to invite the emperor away from Bai Jieyu.

He touched his stubby neck and said plaintively, "Your Majesty, if the Queen Mother punishes me, my slave, don't talk about my butt, my head will move. At that time, you have to save me."

Lu Lingchuan said with a hint of contentment, "What happens tonight has nothing to do with you! Just be smart and don't get in front of your mother!"

He also asked, "Early tomorrow morning, remember to call two dancers from the Jiaofang Division to Zichen Palace and ask them to teach Bai Jieyu how to dance the green waist. Send a message to Bai Jieyu and say that I will also appreciate her dancing in the evening." "

After hearing the emperor's words, Wang Dafu hurriedly agreed, "Promise."

He knew that his master had been noble since he was a child, and he had always been very protective of his shortcomings. Ever since he was a child, the imperial concubine had been the person he cared about, and he couldn't bear to bully her.

Now Bai Jieyu is also a coward, and with the favor of the Queen Mother, she wants to step on the imperial concubine. She didn't even weigh how much she weighed!

That’s not right!

Wang Dafu blinked his clever little eyes.

Your Majesty started to deal with Bai Jieyu, wasn't he going against the Queen Mother?

He suddenly felt a chill all over his body. He was suffering from an old injury on his buttocks, and he could hardly save his head.

Wang Dafu wiped away his tears miserably. Although he was still chasing the emperor, his bulging eyes frequently looked back in the direction of the East Palace in despair.

"Your Majesty, if one day my servant becomes loyal to you, I will order my servant's body to be burned to ashes and buried under the pear tree in the East Palace. In the next life, my servant will still serve you."

Lu Lingchuan's cold and ruthless voice reached his ears with the night breeze.

"Slave dog, then I will help you. After I burn you and bury you, the three thousand taels of silver you saved privately will also be confiscated into my private treasury."

When he heard that the people were gone and the money was gone, Wang Dafu cried "Wow".

The king was indeed cold and cold, and he did not care about the love he had followed him since childhood. No wonder even the imperial concubine wanted to stay away from him.

"Your Majesty, this slave's life is so miserable!"

Lu Lingchuan stood still, waited for him to get close, and then struck the fat man hard on the forehead.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I know you are loyal, so why would I keep you as the young prince who will serve me and my concubine in the future?"

"Your Majesty, you are so kind to your slaves!"

After hearing what the emperor said, Wang Dafu could no longer care about his sadness.

He made up his mind that since he had saved so much money, he had to live until old age and enjoy himself before passing away.

"Your Majesty, in order to serve my young master in the future, this slave must work hard to live longer than the thousand-year-old bastard."

In the past, Wang Dafu said this just to make Lu Lingchuan smile.

But at this time, Lu Lingchuan had a long face and walked gloomily along the corridors of the palace walls, his fists clenched and his heart filled with uncontrollable hatred.

The late emperor died suddenly, and he suddenly ascended the throne. He could not do without the support of the Queen Mother's mother's family, and he was extremely filial and unwilling to disobey the Queen Mother's dignity.

Therefore, these years of tolerance and humility not only resulted in the Queen Mother being aggressive, but also made the servants around him feel that the emperor would not be able to protect him?

And his Yao'er, who used to be the best at pestering him and acting like a coquettish fool, now has no choice but to reject him, stay away from him, and hide from him in order to protect herself.

Cold pain hit me, accompanied by boundless loneliness, a huge hole penetrated my chest, and the cold wind blew through...

With a sullen face, he entered the study room of Xingning Palace, where seven or eight courtiers were already waiting.

He waved to them so that they didn't have to be polite. After giving them a seat, he ordered someone to bring tea and snacks.

In this posture, the emperor is going to work by candlelight.

Sitting in front of the dragon case and spreading out the memorial, Lu Lingchuan raised his voice and told Wang Dafu, "Pass my decree to Bai Jieyu, who is a virtuous and gentle woman, and will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold and a handful of South China Sea pearls."

The emperor's words made Zuo Ling, the Minister of War, look ashamed and blame himself.

"Your Majesty, I am ashamed that I entered the palace late at night and disturbed your Majesty and your empress's clear dreams."

"My dear, you are worrying too much. I have always remembered the teachings of my father and the Grand Tutor. The country, the country, the country, and the country are the first. The pleasures in the harem are just a pastime." Lu Lingchuan comforted him.

Seeing that the emperor was speaking seriously, Zuo Ling's eyes flashed with a hint of teasing.

He and Lu Lingchuan had studied together with Master Shen since they were young, and they were quite familiar with each other. Nowadays, rumors that the imperial concubine has fallen out of favor are getting more and more intense, and the truth is confusing.

What he most remembered was that Miss Shen, the direct daughter of the Grand Tutor, was born at the age of thirteen. He and seven or eight students gave some birthday gifts to express their gratitude to their teacher.

Half a year later, Dong Palace used various excuses to find faults for everyone. Not only were several people unable to serve as the prince's companions, but the one who was most attentive to Miss Shen was assigned to General Zhenbei and sent off to the frosty and snowy border.

Seeing that the prince was so sinister, Zuo Ling quickly asked his father to arrange a marriage between him and the second lady of Yong'an Houfu.

The second young lady of the Hou family is good-looking and has a rich family background. Even if she is married blindly, it is like being plotted by the prince.

In this way, Zuo Ling could continue to stay in the capital and hold the official position of Minister of War.

"There is an urgent report from the border. General Xue Yue has won the battle and requested an order to return to the capital to pay homage to his ancestors."

Zuo Ling stroked his chin mischievously.

Xue Yue was the boy who was sent to the border by Lu Lingchuan's order after he was courting Miss Shen's family.

Therefore, after receiving the emperor's secret message tonight, he immediately rode to invite the minister and several senior officials from the court to enter the palace.

"General Xue is still young after all. He is so happy to have won a battle. I originally ordered him to guard the border for ten years, but before that time has come, he is so impatient to pursue the prosperity of Beijing."

Lu Lingchuan closed the fold and said impatiently.

The great scholar of Lingyan Pavilion came out and bowed his hand to the emperor. This gray-haired old man was also the assistant minister of the Xihe Dynasty for two dynasties.

He trembled and said, "Your Majesty, Xue Yong has a family full of loyal men who sacrificed their lives for the country. Only General Xue is the only man left. The late emperor gave Xue Yong the title of Protector of the Country. According to the law, General Xue One day I will return to the court and inherit the title."

Seeing that the emperor was silent and the old scholar could not come down from the stage, the Minister of the Ministry of War also spoke up.

"Your Majesty, the general of Zhenbei has also rushed to report from 800 miles away, requesting your majesty to summon the junior general back to the court. The letter said that your majesty would like to reward Xue Yue with a title and let him be raised in Shangjing."

"Xue Yue is young and doesn't want to be loyal to the country. Does he just want to enjoy happiness?"

Lu Lingchuan's face was full of anger, and the courtiers looked at each other, unable to guess the emperor's thoughts.

"Your Majesty, General Xue's prestige in the army is growing day by day. The old minister's intention is to call him back. The name is Rong Yang, but in fact..."

Old Prime Minister Wang touched the tip of his nose. He really didn't have the courage to say the words "surveillance, house arrest".

"Secretary Zuo, please give your Majesty some advice."

Prime Minister Wang Laocheng looked at Zuo Ling. This guy invited everyone into the palace but didn't say anything. He was indeed a treacherous person.

"this?"

Zuo Ling secretly took a look at the emperor's face.

Once Xue Yue returns to Beijing, he will naturally inherit the title. The palace's annual Mid-Autumn Festival banquet and New Year's Eve banquet will inevitably meet the beautiful and fragrant Concubine Shen.

How could the emperor, who was so determined to spend every penny he spent, allow his head to be green?

"General Xue is young, and it would be a good thing to have a few more years of experience in the frontier."

Facing the emperor's threatening gaze, Zuo Ling said with a guilty conscience.

"Alas! Zuo Shilang." The old prime minister was angry that he refused to argue. "General Xue said in the memorial that he came back after requesting the order just to kowtow a few times and offer a stick of incense to his parents. Your Majesty, if we don't even agree to this, It’s too disrespectful.”

The old prime minister was heartbroken, "Xue Yue pacified the border, annihilated 10,000 enemy cavalry, captured 50,000 slaves, seized 80,000 cattle and sheep, and then pursued the Northern Hungarian Kingdom to the desolate and cold Shuo Desert. One after another, one by one, They are all great achievements."

"General Xue's achievements were all earned at the cost of his life. The last time he was injured, it was on his chest..."

"That's enough, let him leave immediately and come back!"

Seeing that the old prime minister was so impassioned and endless, Lu Lingchuan threw the paper away and said, "I'm tired, all my dear friends, please go back."

Wang Dafu quickly got up and helped Lu Lingchuan go back to bed.

He had served Lu Lingchuan since he was a child, and he was very aware of the grudge between Xue Yue and his master.

He knew that the news that General Xue had returned to Beijing would make his master's joy at taking care of Bai Jieyu just not last tonight.

When he thought that his master was upset, he liked to kick him a few times. Wang Dafu wailed, thinking that his butt would never heal.

Lu Lingchuan's dull gaze swept over.

"Why are you howling? Let the dancers of the Jiaofangsi watch Bai Jieyu while they practice to death! If they don't do well, I will chop off their heads!"
