Although Xue Ya put all the blame on Cui Lingjing, he was not sure in his heart, his body was trembling all the time, and his hands passed to He Xulan's lap.

He Xulan looked down at the young man who was hugging his leg. From his angle, he could just see half of Xue Ya's snow-white shoulder not covered by his robe.Xue Ya was too anxious when she rushed over to hug her legs, the outer robe she put on in a panic slipped to her elbows again, and a strand of her curly hair fell off her round shoulders.

But Xue Ya only wanted to seduce the emperor so that she would not be found out, and she didn't realize that her clothes were messed up.After he finished shirking responsibility, seeing that He Xulan was silent for a long time, he couldn't help being anxious, and hurriedly raised his head to look at the other party. Seeing that the other party looked at him with an unclear expression, he held on to He Xulan's clothes even more, "Brother Queen Mother, can you send me out?" Palace? I don't want to stay here anymore."

Taking retreat as advance shows that he has no intention of seducing the emperor.

After saying these words, He Xulan finally had a reaction. He leaned over and helped Xueya up, "Don't be afraid, I heard from the palace people that His Majesty came out of Ningfu Palace in a bad mood, so he just came here to take a look. Where's Your Majesty?"

"Your Majesty is drunk, I finally pushed away His Majesty, but I was careful not to let Your Majesty bump into it." Xue Yaxin still carried it.

He Xulan let go of Xue Ya, and turned to go to the inner hall. Xue Ya turned her head to look at He Xulan's back, wanting to catch up, but she was afraid of saying too much and doing too much, which would arouse the other party's suspicion.He stood there for a while, only to realize that his coat had slipped to his elbows. He pulled up the coat and straightened his clothes quickly. Then he raised his head and stroked his hair, brushing the strands of hair behind his ears .

He had just finished tidying up when He Xulan also came out, "Your Majesty is indeed drunk, I will let the imperial physician come and take care of him later."

When Xue Ya heard this, she just nodded.

He Xulan paused for a moment, "You must have been frightened tonight, go back and rest first."

Xue Ya nodded first, then shook her head, and said cautiously: "Will His Majesty punish me when he wakes up?"

"Your Majesty has never been able to drink well. Every time you get drunk, you won't remember what happened before. Don't worry, no one will tell the story tonight." He Xulan said the previous words again, "Go back and rest."

Xue Ya faintly felt that He Xulan was in a bad mood at this time, so she didn't dare to say anything, and left obediently, but before she left, she deliberately said "Thank you, Brother Queen Mother".

Xue Ya was still afraid when she returned to her room. Fortunately, he reacted quickly today and tricked He Xulan, and also fortunate that Cui Lingjing didn't remember anything after drinking.

After taking a bath, Xue Ya was lying on the bed, feeling drunk from the drink he was being fed. He yawned, rubbed his face against the quilt, and suddenly thought of He Xulan again.

"Stupid," he defined.

After waking up the next day, Xueya was worried for a while, but after finding that Cui Lingjing hadn't troubled him for a whole day, that worry finally sank back into her chest.For the next few days, Cui Lingjing didn't call Xueya, and it wasn't until the sixth day that someone sent Xueya to the pavilion.

When Xue Ya arrived at the gazebo, Cui Lingjing was sitting in the gazebo, and there were several eunuchs standing in front of him, some of the young eunuchs were holding scrolls that were taller than a person, and the two big eunuchs were unfolding the scrolls for Cui Lingjing to see , the picture scroll is a girl in a beautiful dress.

Xue Ya guessed what he was doing, he stepped forward lightly, and saluted Cui Lingjing, "My servant salutes His Majesty, long live long live Your Majesty."

"Get up." Cui Lingjing dropped a word perfunctorily, and waved his hands. Seeing this, the two eunuchs could only roll up the scrolls in their hands and throw them on the ground aside, where there was also a pile of scrolls.

The two big eunuchs took a new picture scroll from the young eunuch and unfolded it. Cui Lingjing looked at Xueya and hooked her finger. Xueya didn't know, so she walked over, and Cui Lingjing stuffed a pen into her hand, "Go and get the picture on the ground. The word ugly is written on the scrolls."

Xue Ya looked at the writing brush stuffed into his hand, and suspected that she had heard it wrong, "Write ugly?"

"Yeah." Cui Lingjing said.

"Why?" Xue Ya felt that the girls on the two scrolls just now looked pretty.

Cui Lingjing raised his eyebrows, his eyes showed a fierce look, "Why do you dare to ask?"

"I don't dare." Xueya shook her head quickly, turned around and went to do what Cui Lingjing ordered. There were too many scrolls on the ground, and he didn't have time to look at the faces of those girls, so he was busy writing the word "ugly" on the other scrolls. As soon as I wrote it until dusk, Cui Lingjing left early.

Xue Ya rubbed her sore arm, watched the little eunuch collect the paintings, and couldn't help asking: "Are these beautiful girls?"

One of the young eunuchs glanced at him, "Yes, but you will suffer."

"Ah?" Xue Ya was startled, "Why did I have to suffer?"

"These picture scrolls are sent today to let His Majesty see if they are satisfactory, and the picture scrolls that His Majesty doesn't like have to be sent back. These picture scrolls have to be sent back to the homes of those beautiful women who participated in the election, and many of them are the daughters of the former third-rank ministers. ,younger sister……"

Before the little eunuch finished speaking, the little eunuch next to him pulled him off, "What do you tell him about this, you must send these scrolls back to the Ministry of Rites."

And Xue Ya's face changed drastically, he knelt down and grabbed the little eunuch who had talked to him before, "Will those ministers know that I wrote it?"

"Naturally you will know, you can ask for more blessings." The little eunuch said.

"But His Majesty asked me to write it." Xue Ya said anxiously.

The little eunuch replied: "Do those ministers dare to have any objections to His Majesty?"

Xue Ya's face turned pale, and she got up immediately to find Cui Lingjing, but without Cui Lingjing's summons, he would not have seen Cui Lingjing at all, and then he thought of He Xulan, but he remembered that he had only lied to He Xulan a few days ago, when the other party helped He kept that matter a secret, and if he went to find He Xulan now, He Xulan might find him annoying.

Thinking of this, Xueya had no choice but to take a gamble. He thought that the word "ugly" was written by Cui Lingjing anyway, and those ministers would not be able to come into the palace to fight against his daughter and sister, but he didn't expect a minister to enter palace.

"Yin Xiang, you have also seen that it's not that I don't want to choose a concubine, it's just that those beautiful women are not as good-looking as a palace lady next to me. Seeing the ugly characters on the picture scroll, I don't want to choose, if Prime Minister Yin insists on letting me choose my concubine, then I can choose better ones."

What Cui Lingjing said was really unreasonable. The beautiful girls sent in were all noble girls of the right age, and there was no other batch.

The man called Prime Minister Yin Qingxuan is the Prime Minister Yin Qingxuan. He is also wearing a dark blue official uniform today, and the expression on his fair and handsome face remains unchanged. .”

Cui Lingjing's face darkened, and she grabbed Xueya, who was eager to hide beside her, "Shen Yun? Why don't you help me find out how many beautiful girls are better than him?"

These words made Yin Qingxuan put his eyes on Xue Ya, and his eyes stayed on Xue Ya's face for a while, then moved away, and said in a calm tone, "The charming posture, neither male nor female, is unsightly."

As soon as these words came out, Xue Ya couldn't help being stunned, even Cui Lingjing was a little stunned.

After a while, Cui Lingjing got angry first, "Is Prime Minister Yin doubting my aesthetics?"

It was the first time Xue Ya heard someone say that her appearance was ugly, and she didn't care about being afraid for a while, and clenched her fists in her sleeves, but he didn't dare to stare at Yin Qingxuan, and could only stare at the floor tiles in front of him.

But Yin Qingxuan still looked calm, and even nodded directly, answering: "Yes."

This time, Cui Lingjing was speechless for a while, Yin Qingxuan was the prime minister who was appointed by the late emperor to assist him, Yin Qingxuan's father and grandfather were both prime ministers, he really couldn't do anything to Yin Qingxuan.

Cui Lingjing leaned back, leaned on the dragon chair, and said after a while: "Yin Xiang, give me another year, can't I choose a concubine after a year?"

"No." As soon as Yin Qingxuan finished speaking, Cui Lingjing picked up the memorial on the table and threw it at it.The corner of the memorial hit Yin Qingxuan's forehead, making a thin cut, but Yin Qingxuan looked at Cui Lingjing with his back straight, his eyes neither dodging nor hiding, as if nothing had happened.

Cui Lingjing let out a long breath after hitting someone, "What if I don't choose? Are you going to press me to choose?"

"I dare not wait." Yin Qingxuan said.

"I see you are very brave, get out!" Cui Lingjing waved his hands angrily.

Yin Qingxuan saluted, "The minister will come back tomorrow." After he finished speaking, he said, "By the way, there is one more thing I haven't told Your Majesty. Your Majesty let the palace servants mention ugly words on the beautiful girl's picture scroll at will, which hurts everyone. The heart of the young minister."

"Whoever writes it, look for him. He wrote it. You let those ministers come to him." Cui Lingjing said coldly.

Xueya let Cui Lingjing take the blame a few days ago, and Cui Lingjing let him take the blame these days, it's really a turn of events.Xue Ya couldn't help scolding Cui Lingjing for being such a bitch, but she could only kneel down quickly, "Your Majesty!"

Seeing that Cui Lingjing was ignoring him, he wanted to reach out and grab Cui Lingjing's sleeve, but before touching him, Cui Lingjing brushed him away.

Yin Qingxuan took the scene in the palace into his eyes, "Since he wrote it, the minister can only put him in the sky prison and put him in custody pending trial."
