Master of the World [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 41 Long Live My Emperor 06

Today the palace is full of festivities, eunuchs and maids come and go, bowing their heads and busy talking, occasionally bumping into Lin Xun and Su Qin, saluting and then hurried away.

Lin Xun's current status is a bit embarrassing. Many people don't know what to call him when they see him. He is an abolished second prince, but he lives with the national teacher. Thinking of the unspeakable relationship between the two of them these days, no one will Don't dare to neglect Lin Xun.

Seeing that many people saw them from a distance and made a detour, Lin Xun's mouth twitched, "It's obvious that you have a high position and authority, but these people shy away from you like a tiger and don't come to curry favor. Do you know why?"

Su Qin glanced at him.

Lin Xun: "When people say good things, they should be rewarded." He continued to walk on his already sore legs, and said seriously: "Because you are poor."

Hearing that Su Qin's footsteps slowed down for a moment, he returned to his previous state.

Lin Xun walked beside him, nonchalantly said: "You should have heard about the matter that Father fainted in the garden that day."

Su Qin nodded.

Lin Xun: "Speaking of which, the father-in-law who was by my father's side also relieved me a lot."

Su Qin said indifferently: "In the few years since the emperor came to the throne, Li Dezhong was not in his current position. Concubine Lian once helped him settle some matters in private."

Lin Xun: "But I didn't find that the mother concubine still has the quality of benevolence."

Su Qin: "Concubine Lian, she knows people very well."

At least not a few years after that, Li Dezhong sat in the current position of chief executive.

After Lin Xun secretly remembered the father-in-law's name, he said again: "Whether you are on the rise or come from behind, you must rely on the emperor's favor or favor in the palace."

He turned his face to look at Su Qin: "Does the national teacher know how to get the emperor's favor?"

This question was extremely unpretentious, but Su Qin answered him calmly: "As a minister, you know how to measure yourself, and as a son of man..."

Lin Xun stopped, waiting for the second half of the sentence.

Su Qin also stopped, looked at him and said, "You must know how to show weakness."

An emperor is strong enough, he doesn't need to see a son who is stronger than himself before he is old.

Lin Xun was thoughtful.

The two walked forward side by side, neither of them mentioned the previous topic again.

Passing a turning, the left side is a rockery made of stones of different sizes, accompanied by green trees on both sides, which is an excellent visual blind spot.

Lin Xun, "You go first, I will take the seat later, if you go now, I am afraid you will meet the leader of Changran."

Su Qin: "Before the marriage, she should not show her face again."

Lin Xun shook his head: "I'd better not take this risk."

Reminiscent of Princess Changran's behavior on weekdays, Su Qin didn't have too much doubts, or maybe it was the arrogant thoughts of the former Chen Anyan and Princess Changran, to him, it was just a small matter, and he didn't even explore it. Without thinking, he left alone.

Watching him go away, Lin Xun looked around and jumped behind the rockery.

"You said you could help me change my face."

[System: Just...]

Lin Xun: "I will pay back the money together within seven days."

After a short while, a handsome young eunuch walked out.

Lin Xun touched his sleeves and face, his expression changed slightly: "It's just a human skin mask and old clothes, and they charged me thousands of silver."

He tidied up his clothes, and vowed that within a year, he would change the hat on his head into a poinsettia hat, with auspicious cloud patterns tattooed on his sleeves, and become a legendary chief steward.

Inside the palace, it was busy and orderly. No one noticed that there was a little eunuch not far from the palace gate.

When the sound of the wheels came, Lin Xun lowered his eyebrows, his eyes were hidden in the night.

He was standing on an open ground, the groom stopped, and a man in court clothes came down from inside. When he saw Lin Xun, he frowned, "This is..."

Before he could continue speaking, Lin Xun took a step forward and said in a low voice, "The servant was sent by Eunuch Li."

As soon as he heard the word 'Eunuch Li', the man in court clothes immediately pricked up his ears and listened carefully. Eunuch Li is a big celebrity around the emperor, so it must be a big deal to send someone to talk about it.

Lin Xun's voice became softer: "My father-in-law sent me to explain to your lord that the emperor is in a particularly bad mood today, so please don't take the initiative to mention anything about the Lotus Kingdom during the banquet."

The man in court clothes was puzzled: "Isn't today's banquet just to entertain the envoys of the Lotus Kingdom?"

Lin Xun: "Eunuch Li just sent his servants to pass on the message, and whether he listens or not is his own business."

Hearing what he said, the man in court clothes only felt that the matter was very serious, and he originally thought that he would take the initiative to raise this topic during the dinner, but now he had the illusion that he was lucky enough to save his life.

"Thank you, father-in-law, for passing on the message." He said a little more gratefully, took a money bag from his waist, and took out some scattered silver and stuffed it into Lin Xun's hand.

Lin Xun pretended to take a step back, "My lord, how can this be, the slave is just..."

"This purse is for Eunuch Li. As for the rest, thank you Eunuch for passing the message."

Lin Xun, "In this way, the servant will accept it."

The man in court clothes said: "This father-in-law was sent by Eunuch Li at a young age, so he must be deeply trusted. If there is any news in the future, please let me know."

Lin Xun: "This is natural."

The sound of the wheels sounded again, and Lin Xun continued to pretend to be the tiger, waiting for the next one.

……

"My lord, Eunuch Li asked me to tell you not to mention protons during the dinner."

"My lord, Eunuch Li told the slaves to speak carefully today, so as not to offend the emperor."

"General..."

In less than half a stick of incense, with a bunch of irrelevant nonsense, the money bag on Lin Xun's body was already so heavy that it was difficult for him to walk.

After making sure that there would be no more carriages or sedan chairs passing by, Lin Xun walked back step by step as he looked at the closed palace gate. He passed a small lake, looked up at the extraordinarily beautiful night, and sighed: "This is what life should do." Some weight!"

He looked at it and sighed, but the banquet in the hall had officially begun.

Su Qin sat just below the emperor, looked at Princess Changran who came here as expected, and frowned slightly when he thought that Lin Xun was still missing.

"I have heard for a long time that the Lian Kingdom lies on the desert sea in the north, and is rich in products, and there are some rare things from the sea."

The envoy smiled wryly: "Relying on the sea in vain, this year there has been a strange drought in the country, and the desert sea is in the extreme north, where the population is sparse, and a few days ago there was a sudden news that there was a strange disease spreading among the fishermen. The people who were sent to inquire about the news were all contracted a strange disease and died."

Hearing the word 'strange disease', Chen Han's eyes flashed past Su Qin.

The latter was sitting upright, with a calm wind, like a handsome young man in a troubled world.

"Princess Changran will marry to Lian Country in a few days. Since the two countries have an in-law relationship, I will try to help."

A look of joy flashed in the messenger's eyes.

Eunuch Li said at the right time, "Your Majesty, it's about the same time, and the dishes are ready."

Looking around with sharp and narrow eyes, "Today is a visitor from afar, you don't have to be polite, just have fun during the dinner."

Civil and military officials stood up: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Intoxicating wine, delicious food, everyone silently chops, picks up vegetables, and swallows silently.

Except for the occasional slight sound of chopsticks hitting the edge of the plate, the rest of the time was extremely quiet.

Chen Han: "The Emperor Lian sent the prince to our country to exchange culture, what do you think?"

Many people present remembered what the little eunuch said in front of the palace gate, but none of them opened their mouths to answer.

After being silent for too long, afraid of offending the emperor, Zhao Shangshu finally stood up and said, "This is a good thing."

All officials echoed: "Okay."

Chen Han: "...During the prince's stay, you have to be courteous. Since it's for communication, who do you think is best to be in charge of this matter?"

In previous years, many people would take the initiative to ask for this kind of thing, and who would not be willing to do it if they could gain a good reputation without any effort.

Now it is—

"I think Mr. Zhao is good."

"Where, Mr. Sun is really knowledgeable."

"Wei Chen is getting older, so I still leave more opportunities to young people."

The envoy of the Lotus Kingdom also realized that the atmosphere was not right, and took the initiative to find a hot topic: "I heard that Princess Changran has a peerless appearance, and she is beautiful and beautiful. Seeing her today, she really deserves her reputation."

Princess Changran was playing with the spoon boredly, and didn't hear what he was saying at all, wondering why Chen Anyan hadn't come yet, his confinement status had been temporarily lifted.

When there was no response, the messenger sat down awkwardly.

Lin Xun, who was walking on the road, didn't realize that he had already "decided to win a thousand miles away", and everyone was uncomfortable disturbing the originally happy banquet.

At the moment, he is feeling a little relieved because he has paid off the system and still has some loose change left.

"Front!" A hurried voice came from behind.

Lin Xun stopped.

"Which palace are you from? If you don't help, you're just wandering around here?"

Lin Xun did not dare to call himself Eunuch Li. The ministers were relatively unclear about the affairs in the palace, but these eunuchs and maids knew very well.

He said vaguely: "The young one was just sent by the nobleman to deliver a letter."

On this day, it is not surprising that several empresses in the palace sent messages to the family members who came here.

"Hurry up." Someone put a tray on his hand, "There are not enough people in the hall, you go there first."

The person who spoke was wearing Tibetan clothes, and he should have a high status among the eunuchs.

Lin Xun had no choice but to answer.

When they walked to the door, they didn't hear the exchange of toasts, or the sound of simple conversations.

Lin Xun raised his eyebrows, shouldn't the banquet be very lively?

Not knowing that he was the culprit at all, he lowered his head and walked in carefully with a group of people. Lin Xun, who thought that he would not attract attention, did not know that any disturbance at this time could cause everyone to look up.

He bowed and placed a plate of fruit in front of a minister, and was about to leave the stage when he suddenly felt a line of sight resting on him among the crowd.

Lin Xun raised his eyes, and happened to see Su Qin holding a white jade porcelain cup, looking at him with unclear meaning.

Lin Xu's face was calm, but he thumped in his heart: It's bad, does this person know how to disguise himself?
