Daiyu's stepmother is not easy to be

The girls and women in the house had been sent out long ago, so Mrs. Li told Pan Meizhen about the events of last year in detail.

Pan Meizhen was stunned for a while after hearing this, and when she regained her senses, she ran out of the backyard like a gust of wind, ran to the door of Li Mingcheng's house, stopped and knocked on the door: "Cousin? Cousin!"

Li Mingcheng was full of Mei Ting in his heart. He didn't know what the queen's question would be, and how the emperor would react. He took two casual bites of dinner and then asked his aunt to go back to his room.

He was worrying that the empress is very busy in charge of the sixth palace, and he didn't know when he would be able to respond, when he heard a hasty knock on the door, Mei Zhen was anxiously looking for him outside, her voice changed into a different tone.

Li Mingcheng sat up from the bed and put on his shoes, saying, "Cousin, come in quickly!"

He had just put on his shoes and before he stood up, Cousin Pan ran up to him. Before he could stand up, he asked, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

Cousin Pan didn't speak.

Li Mingcheng was puzzled, he straightened up, and wanted to ask again, but he saw that cousin Pan's face was red, white, and blue, and his eyes were indescribably complicated.

He was a little guilty of being stared at by cousin Pan, and asked tentatively: "Cousin... What happened?"

Cousin Pan took a deep breath and asked him, "Cousin! Is the girl you like... is it..."

"Is it really Mei Ting?"

Li Mingcheng opened his mouth and made two meaningless breaths. He wanted to grin, but felt it was inappropriate. He and Pan Meizhen stood there for a while, looking at each other.

Early the next morning, Li Mingcheng and Pan Meizhen went to the Imperial Academy together as usual. They obviously went out from the same door and went to the same place for business. The two rode side by side, but they felt like strangers.

When they got off their horses at the entrance of the Imperial Academy, Li Mingcheng and Pan Meizhen lingered at the entrance for a while, then turned around and called "cousin" and "cousin" at the same time.

After this sentence was finished, the two stood there staring at each other for a while, until another person came over and patted both of their shoulders to ask questions, then they came back to their senses and chatted with their colleagues, and went to work on their seats.

It just so happened that today it was his turn to go to the Zichen Hall to record. When the Holy Majesty finished discussing with the old ministers, everyone was going to leave. The Holy Majesty said, "Li Hanlin, you stay here."

Li Mingcheng was extremely nervous for a moment, ignoring everyone's meaningful gazes, he stopped and said "yes", then stood there with his head bowed, and thousands of thoughts ran through his mind.

When all the ministers left the Zichen Palace, Li Mingcheng stepped forward and stood still to listen to the emperor's orders.

Li Mingcheng felt the emperor's eyes lingering on him for a long time, sighed again, and said: "Pan Cairen said that she has no intention of getting married, and only wants to go to the Literature Museum to study various classics carefully and educate the palace people."

"She has great ambitions, and she doesn't want to be trapped in the inner curtain after marriage. Li Hanlin, you have a very good vision, but it's a pity that this marriage will not come true."

Li Mingcheng's head was buzzing, echoing the words "Pan Cairen said that she had no intention of getting married a long time ago", he knelt down and kowtowed to thank him instinctively.

The emperor looked at him like this, and remembered that when he tried everything possible to ask Wen Jun to marry him, he was so sleepy and thoughtful, and would toss and turn for Wen Jun's words, eyes and smiles.

Now that Li Hanlin is still young, hearing the news that his sweetheart has no intention of getting married, he feels extremely uncomfortable thinking about it.

In the end it was the young courtier he admired, the emperor said in a slightly slower voice: "Everyone has his own ambitions, Pan Cairen doesn't want to go out of the palace to get married, if I insist on bestowing the marriage, wouldn't it make you a bitter couple?"

"Li Hanlin, there are still many ladies from famous families in Beijing who are waiting for you. I, Dayan, are outstanding people, and there are many outstanding women. When you figure out which lady you are in love with, just come to me, and I will make the decision for you! "

The emperor promised another gift, and Li Mingcheng respectfully kowtowed and thanked him, then he resigned and turned around, going back to the Imperial Academy step by step by instinct.

When he reached a corner, he was grabbed by someone and asked, "Cousin! Cousin! What did the Holy Majesty say? How did you lose your mind? What did Mei Ting say?"

Li Mingcheng took a look, it turned out that Mei Zhen was waiting for him there, and he didn't know how long he had been waiting for, he was just walking, not paying attention to the people around the corner.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Pan Meizhen asked again, anxiously saying, "Cousin! What did Mei Ting say?"

Li Mingcheng murmured: "Mei Ting said that she has no intention of getting married, and she wants to stay in the Palace Museum of Literature..."

He spoke slowly, showing a smile uglier than crying, patted Pan Meizhen on the shoulder, and walked down the road.

Li Mingcheng only uttered more than twenty words, but Pan Meizhen pondered for a quarter of an hour before she suddenly changed color and hurriedly ran back to the Imperial Academy, wanting to ask Li Mingcheng what was going on, but was arrested by her superiors Right, so I had to sort out the paperwork.

After finally getting to the Yamen, Pan Meizhen was ten times busier than usual, sorting out her things and looking for Li Mingcheng, but she saw several senior officials in Li Mingcheng's room talking around him.

Two days ago, the news that the Holy Majesty left Li Mingcheng to give him a marriage has spread all over the capital. In the past two days, Li Mingcheng's appearance of being out of his mind was noticed by everyone in the Imperial Academy.

After inquiring today, Li Mingcheng was left by the Holy Majesty again, and everyone has been waiting to see the result.

Unexpectedly, after Li Mingcheng came back, he was more frowning than the previous two days. Everyone had been curious for a long time. Seeing this, people who were usually able to talk to Li Mingcheng couldn't help but ask a few questions.

Li Mingcheng was surrounded by people and asked each other, but there was only one sentence in his mouth: "King Xiang is interested, but the goddess is ruthless. If you say someone's name and ruin their reputation, it is not a gentleman's doing. This is the end of this matter." It's over."

Pan Meizhen felt relieved when he heard this at the door. At this moment, he felt a little pitiful for Cousin Li.

So he entered the house, greeted all the scholars in the house one by one, and said with a smile: "My cousin is in a depressed mood today, and my brother will go home to have a drink with him, and then go home first. "

Seeing Li Mingcheng's sluggish face, everyone said they were very sorry, and someone persuaded him that "there is no fragrant grass anywhere in the world", Pan Meizhen thanked Li Mingcheng one by one, and took him out of the crowd to go home.

The two of them were speechless all the way, and Pan Meizhen didn't want to speak until they reached the door of the house, but Li Mingcheng sighed before him: "You must tell your aunt what your cousin says."

"I don't know if my aunt knows about my cousin's heart. If my aunt doesn't know, we can talk slowly in a while, so don't make my aunt worry too much."

Pan Mei was really upset all night long, but now she felt sorry for Mei Ting.

He swallowed the words that came to his lips, threw the reins to the boy in silence together with Li Mingcheng, and walked to the back hall to greet Mrs. Li.

Walking to the gate of Mrs. Li's courtyard, Pan Meizhen tried her best to put a smile on his face, so as not to make his mother worry too much by frowning.

After adjusting his complexion, he turned his head to remind Li Mingcheng, but he saw that Li Mingcheng's sad expression along the way had disappeared, and there was a characteristic expression on his face when he was at home in the past. Apart from the hippie smile and incongruity, there was also a little carelessness ruffian.

Pan Mei really felt sorry for Cousin Li even more.

Seeing that Pan Mei was really looking at him, Li Mingcheng grinned at him, and whispered to him, "I'll tell you later, don't say anything."

But when he entered Mrs. Li's room, Li Mingcheng smiled all over his face. Before he could say anything, Mrs. Li leaned forward and held his hand, and asked, "Good boy, did Mei Ting not promise you?"

Li Mingcheng managed to maintain a smile on his face, and asked, "How did my aunt find out?"

Mrs. Li was full of worry for him, and she touched his shoulder and comforted him: "Mingcheng, you are a good boy, although outsiders say you are weird, but my aunt knows that you don't seem to care about anything." , but your heart is the most delicate."

"You know what happened in our family. Mei Ting has a different temperament from ordinary girls. She doesn't want to have her reasons, not because you are bad."

Li Mingcheng couldn't hold back the expression on his face anymore, tears rolled down his eyes, he quickly reached out to wipe them away, tried to hold back his crying, choked up and said: "Aunt, Aunt, Mei Ting said she doesn't want to go out of the palace, doesn't want to get married, wants In the future, I will teach in the palace..."

"Aunt, do I never have another chance..."
