Gu Qingci

Something is very wrong.I should be dreaming, and I haven't woken up from the dream.

Slowly opening his eyes, he saw a face that turned all sentient beings close at hand, those peach blossom eyes closed quietly, and he couldn't see the depth or coldness inside.

The emperor snuggled into my arms, but luckily my hands were placed on me neatly.Her tiara was thrown carelessly on the floor, and our clothes were both crumpled.In an instant, a chill emerged from the soles of his feet, and his blood was coagulating.

After drinking last night, I was as fragmented as ever and couldn't remember anything.At this time, I really hated myself for not having the habit of drinking and still breaking up. I was always out of the situation, and I couldn't solve this advanced problem at all.

With a slight movement, the limbs became numb, the blood flowed back again, and there was a burst of pain in the arms and legs.

It turned out that she and I were still lying on the same couch last night, and slept in such a cramped place for a night, so the hell is comfortable.

To be honest, I'd really like to sneak away right now.I don't know what happened last night, and countless possible situations are spinning in my mind, but there is no doubt that none of them can be handled by a person like me.What's more, I have natural admiration and awe for her, and the original intention of not wanting to get close to her.

She hadn't woken up yet, so I didn't dare to move too much. I lightly took her arm from my waist, and then slowly got up.Just as I was about to oil the soles of my feet, a figure appeared outside the huge curtain, and a familiar female voice sounded, the voice was not loud or low, but the whole room could hear it clearly: "Your Majesty, the morning time is almost here."

The person on the couch moved, his long eyelashes fluttered like a fan, opened slightly, and sat up with his head supported.The emperor rubbed his temples vigorously, Liu Yan frowned slightly, her head seemed to be in pain.She turned around slowly, saw that I had already put on my shoes by the side of the couch, and pulled me back to the couch unceremoniously.

"Stay here and don't move around, I will call someone to come and clean it up." The voice was as cold as always, but the tone was much lower than usual when I woke up in the morning, and it was a bit hoarse.

The action was faster than the consciousness, my head shook like a rattle, and I moved to the edge of the couch and wanted to go.

She got up slowly, casually took off her wrinkled uniform, and looked down at me: "Yang Aiqing, do you want to go out with me now?" The corners of her mouth slightly raised, her eyes narrowed with narrow eyes.

Following her gaze to the outside of the curtain, a group of court ladies could be seen faintly.However, both her and I were disheveled.

After knowing what she meant, if we go out together at this time, I am afraid that the gossip and rumors of the court will turn the sky upside down.

Suppressing the endless twists and turns in my heart, as well as the flustered little thoughts, I lowered my head and said, "You go first."

After she went out, it took a long time before a maid came in - the one I saw at the gate of the hall yesterday.She cleaned up the remaining wine jars and leftovers on the table from last night, and lit the incense burner next to the cabinet.

"Does Master Yang need to take a bath?" After finishing the work, the little maid asked me.

take a bath?it's here?Shake your head quickly.

It's already late to go to the cabinet today, and it's not good to get settled.The little maid in the hall is called Wu Xia. After I washed up briefly, she led me out of the hall through the side door through a small path. Only then did I know that the place where I stayed all night was the emperor's bedroom, Chaofeng Palace.The development of the matter was too unexpected, and I didn't understand why I slept with the emperor on a small couch all night. After thinking about it for a long time, I still felt that the emperor and I drank too much and fell asleep in a daze.

Trying hard not to let myself think about strange places.After all, it has been recorded in the history books that the former emperor also slept with the ministers on the same couch after drinking at night, and it is still a good story.

Back in the cabinet, I really wanted to ask Yan Xi what he meant.Although I am stupid, I can think about these things clearly by using my brain. In addition to her sudden actions yesterday, no matter how I think about it, it is not normal. It is definitely premeditated.

"Yanxi!" I said in a bad tone.Seeing me coming, she narrowed her eyes with a smile, like a big fox.

"Now we need to work, isn't it appropriate to talk small things at this time?" Yan Xi didn't let me say all the following questions.She used this reason to prevaricate, she didn't know who was the person who used to fish and chat with me every day!I was so angry, seeing that she didn't respond to me at all, the momentum of Xingshi's questioning of crimes weakened.

After finally reaching noon, he immediately rushed to Yan Xi and pushed her on the chair to prevent her from having lunch.She looked up at me, and the old god said, "Master Yang looks very good, but I heard from Yang Zhi that you didn't go back to the mansion yesterday, where did you go?"

She preemptively strikes, and her words are full of malicious intentions. It is not easy for me to answer her question, so I can only stare at her fiercely.As if he didn't feel it, Yan Xi continued, "I didn't go back to the mansion all night, and I'm late for the cabinet today, so Mr. Yang is going somewhere to have fun, right?"

"Yan Xi, don't pretend to be ignorant. Yesterday in the imperial garden, you suddenly rushed up to me and started to touch me. Did you just do it when you saw the emperor coming? What are you going to do?"

"You really make me sad when you say that. I said it all, can I harm you? It's just to help you and the emperor get back together. You know why you couldn't go back yesterday, and you didn't even bring any news back to the mansion. " Yan Xi blew his nails, as if he had a plan for everything.

Seeing her being so determined, I felt overwhelmed and uncomfortable, never hating myself so much for being stupid as a pig.

"Just tell me, okay, what do you know? Don't leave me alone in the dark. It's the first time I feel so uncomfortable because I don't know anything." After all, I still showed weakness and asked her with pleading, my heart Messy guesses can't connect to a complete situation.

Hearing this, Yan Xi looked at me sideways and almost burst into tears. He sighed deeply and said, "Say you are stupid, you handle state affairs well, and help the emperor solve the big trouble of casting money; say you are smart, alas..."

"You just came to the cabinet back then, and no one would talk to you because you offended the emperor. I was simply curious about how a person who angered the emperor when he first entered the officialdom could become the number one scholar. So I read the policy theory you wrote." She said slowly, no wonder I didn't have a good time in the cabinet last year, that's why.

"To be honest, Yang Li, I think you are really talented. There are many things in the policy theory that I have never thought about, and my private school teacher has never said it. Although I don't know where you offended the emperor, but just now It’s a pity that it’s a pity to ruin your future when you become an official, so I’ll help you—hand in the copy you wrote.” She said silently, “If the emperor gets angry, I won’t be able to keep my cinnabar hat. However, Fortunately, you do have an appetite for her."

I only found out about so many things today, and Yan Xi has done a lot for me secretly, but I didn't realize it.She was right, I was too stupid.Some regretted that my attitude towards her was too bad, but there was still the most important doubt I hadn't figured out: "...But, I still don't understand why you suddenly..."

She got up suddenly and wanted to pinch my face, but I didn't dodge, but her hand stopped halfway and fell down.Her expression was particularly serious, and she said word by word: "I did plan what happened yesterday. But the reason, I hope you can think about it yourself and feel it with your heart."

A sense of emptiness and powerlessness haunts my whole body, do I pay attention...but where is my heart?

In the afternoon, he was summoned by the emperor again.Even though I kept doing mental construction, I still couldn't face her as usual - the way she was nestled in my arms and slowly getting up was like a comic book, and kept spinning in my mind.

The emperor looked as usual, and continued to tell me about the floods in the north. The weather is getting hotter every day, and this matter cannot be delayed any longer.

Taking this opportunity, I thought of a reason to keep a distance from her.

"Your Majesty, I feel that seeing is better than hearing a hundred times. Whether to excavate or dredge a river can only be determined on the spot. Now we can't let the people do it and miss the spring plowing, and there is a shortage of people in the Ministry of Industry. Please go to the north to check the situation, and then talk to me." The Ministry of Industry will work together to solve it.”

The emperor narrowed his eyes: "Do you want to go to the north?" The previous harmonious atmosphere suddenly disappeared, like the moon in a mirror in the water, and the falseness made me feel uncomfortable.

"That's true. If you don't go, you will always be unsteady. It's just a matter of talking on paper. If you miss the people's livelihood, wouldn't you be a great sinner." I didn't squint, and my attitude was firm.

"I have appointed Zhang Yi as Minister of the Ministry of Industry to go to Beizhen to supervise the river project. How can it be said that there is a shortage of people?"

"I can go with Master Zhang. After all, he is the former boss of the minister. We have worked together for a long time, and we have a tacit understanding. We will live up to your expectations." Speaking of working with Master Zhang, the emperor lowered his eyes and considered seriously. I propose this.Her slender fingers tapped lightly on the table a few times.

The sunlight outside the window spilled into the room through the window little by little, and a flower in a vase in the hall quietly bloomed.

She didn't know what she was thinking about, but her thick eyelashes trembled, and she said slowly, "That's fine."

He breathed a sigh of relief and kowtowed immediately, not giving her a chance to repent.Finally, I can leave here temporarily.

"Then you are allowed to go to Beizhen with Zhang Yi to repair the water conservancy someday. Come here—" she waved to me.I sensibly ran to her and knelt down beside her. Don't ask the reason at this time, the most important thing is to please her.

My head was very close to the emperor's knee, and my body was next to the dragon chair.I saw her hand moved away from the table, landed on my head in an instant, and touched it.Her voice became softer again: "How long is it going, huh?" The strange feeling that had just disappeared came back to her heart again, and she replied, "I must come back as soon as possible."

"Yeah." She put down her hand and collected all her expressions.

I saw that she was silent and was about to step back when she suddenly said, "Wait a minute."

"Yang Lu, you... do you have a nickname?" The emperor's ears turned red again, this time it was not an illusion, it was not caused by earrings.

The original body had this in its memory, but now it is mine.He nodded and said, "Yes, Master gave it to me."

"Write it out." She took out a piece of rice paper and gave it to me.I lowered my head to pick it up, and a burst of fragrance came over again, so publicized and enthusiastic.Hold the brush and write two words neatly on the paper sideways: Xiaoli.

Small considerations.

When I come back, these strange feelings should disappear.Take a break outside and wake up a little bit.

The emperor should be a god that I can't reach, just like when I first entered the palace.

"My lord." A masked man in black emerged from the darkness, and turned over and fell to the ground. "The latest news, that person has left Beijing for an important northern town, shall we act?"

There was a crisp sound of the lid being snapped on. "Don't worry, she's just going to die if you do it now, it's so boring." The gloomy voice was full of fun.

"If you want to play, just play with a big one, if you want her to go to jail and be cut into pieces." The man's eyes overflowed with viciousness, and his fists turned white.
