Liu Huafei

After a few days, the rumors that had been raging in the palace suddenly disappeared, not even a trace left.

Nianhua was still a little worried that Yuan Mutian would kill chickens and monkeys in order to suppress the rumors, but let Xiao Lizi deliberately inquire for a few days, and he didn't hear that anyone suddenly disappeared or went away. It's just that everyone said it vividly Those people seem to have amnesia collectively now, shaking their heads in the face of Xiao Lizi's pretending casual inquiry, and looking like what are you talking about?

Nianhua was a little relieved, although he didn't know what method Yuan Mutian used, but he really admired the majesty of Yuan Mutian's orders.

It's just that although the rumors have stopped, the problem that caused Nianhua the most headache has never been resolved.

He is still placed in the original Nianhua Palace by Yuan Mutian, which is really an embarrassing position for him.Although the legs are on his body, he is very light-hearted. It's not that he can't walk on his own, but he still wants to start his own grand career in Xiaoguo, so he has to look at the face of other leaders and give them some face.

So he needs to solemnly mention this matter to Yuan Mutian face to face, and if he drags it on in such a sticky manner, even if others don't say it, in the eyes of outsiders, it will be really difficult for him to take off his pampering hat.

"My lord, we've been waiting for more than an hour. The emperor probably won't leave here." Xiao Lizi sat under the shade of a tree with his years, the sharp cicadas and the whitish sunlight outside the shadow of the tree made him feel this The dog days are even more unbearably hot.

"It's okay, it's only after two o'clock, wait a minute. I've checked, the emperor goes to Concubine You every afternoon, this is the only way to go." Nianhua bit a leaf, holding a cattail fan in his hand There was a whirring sound, and in a blink of an eye, seeing Xiao Lizi sweating profusely and his face flushed, Nianhua changed the fan and held it in another hand, approaching Xiao Lizi, letting the fan blow their faces.

"My lord, you are really infatuated with the emperor..." Xiao Lizi turned his head to look at Nianhua, and sighed softly.Before the voice fell, Nianhua slammed a chestnut on the forehead.

"What nonsense are you talking about? This emperor's dragon sees the beginning and the end. Since the last time he went to our place, he has never appeared again. Doesn't he feel uncomfortable when he keeps putting me in the palace? I don't know what he is thinking. .I want to make it clear to him so that I can move out. I must stop him today." Nianhua was a little irritable, fanning her fan loudly.

Xiao Lizi raised his hand and rubbed his forehead aggrievedly, but couldn't help muttering: "Obviously you used to like to wait for the emperor on the road, how could you blame me for saying something wrong..." Thinking about it, it was just that time when Nianhua fell out of favor. The emperor tried every means to keep Yuan Mutian's love, but when the emperor was not liking him more and more, he kept silent for fear of causing Nianhua's sadness.

"Young master, I was wrong, don't take it to heart..."

Nianhua didn't feel anything after listening to it. The memory of that time has now become as indifferent as a movie that has nothing to do with it, and she can't empathize with it.He waved his hands indifferently, patted Xiao Lizi's head again, and sighed pretending to be profound: "This time and that time, I explain to you too much and you don't understand. To put it simply, I have several times with you. Thousands of years and a generation gap in a parallel universe..."

Nianhua saw that Lizi was frowning and trying to understand the meaning of parallel universes or generation gaps, and he couldn't help thinking that he once teased his two-year-old nephew and taught him advanced mathematics courses in a serious manner.The little nephew stared wide-eyed, clearly not understanding but obediently trying to understand what others said to him.Thinking of this, Nianhua couldn't help but burst out laughing, rubbing Xiao Lizi's hair and laughing: "Little Lizi, you are so——cute!"

When Yuan Mutian came from a distance, what he saw was Nianhua waiting for him under the tree, with a bright smile on his face, which almost made the summer noon sun pale.

The corners of Yuan Mutian's mouth curled up slightly, without squinting, he continued to walk forward.

Before he got close, he saw Nianhua throwing the fan into the arms of his personal eunuch, with that dazzling smile on his face, that—a smile that was brighter than the sun and cleaner than the mountain spring , running towards him from a distance, the corners of his clothes raised during the running were full of vitality that could not be ignored.

"See the emperor." When Nian Hua approached, he knelt down and saluted respectfully.It's just that what he did was not the etiquette he used to do when he was a male favorite, but a standard salute to the current emperor according to the rules of the palace guards.At this time, Xiao Lizi also ran over in a panic and knelt on the ground.

Looking at Nianhua in front of him, Yuan Mutian paused his smile for a moment, but recovered in an instant, and took two steps forward with a smile on his face to help Nianhua up: "Okay, okay, get up. Nianhua, you finally agree with my words I am relieved. In this harem, it is a big taboo to behave unrestrainedly, if you continue to be obedient and respectful in the future, I will definitely not blame you again."

Nian Hua got up following his strength, smiled obediently at Yuan Mutian, nodded and said, "Cao Min understands."

Since ancient times, companions are like companions to tigers, even if they travel through a parallel space, this is probably the same truth.In order for the king of a country with eyes above the top to agree to his request, he had to smooth the tiger's fur before he could speak.

Yuan Mutian frowned slightly: "What kind of grassroots, you are living in my harem now, what kind of grassroots are you?"

Nian Hua glanced at him and said, "But I have no official or job right now, what is it if I am not a grassroots citizen?"

Yuan Mutianying raised her slender eyebrows: "You used to──"

"What happened in the past?" Nian Hua looked at him suspiciously.

Yuan Mutian looked at Nianhua for a moment, the puzzled look did not seem to be fake, he became a little impatient, waved his hand and said: "Forget it. The sun is poisonous in the afternoon, why are you here?"

Nianhua scratched his head, and then smiled at Yuan Mutian, the white and neat teeth under the red and tender lips shone slightly: "Your Majesty, I am here specially to wait for you!"

"Oh?! Wait for me?" Yuan Mutian's slightly frowned brows flattened instantly, with a look of joy, he raised his right hand to embrace Nianhua's shoulders, slightly hugged him in his arms, and said with a smile: " Ever since you came back, it's really rare to see you being so obedient. This time, I really want to reward you well." While talking, he walked forward, not knowing where to take the years.

Nianhua followed him for two steps, and sighed helplessly.

He must owe God a lot of money, otherwise, why would God always refuse to give him what he wanted.A long time ago, this kind of treatment was what he wanted most when he was stumbling in the confusion of amnesia, but he couldn't ask for it at that time.Now he just wants to find a way to get out and enter the prime minister, but he is trapped in this harem, and the dog emperor refuses to let him out.

"Your Majesty, if you want to reward me, I would like to make a request." Nianhua looked at Yuan Mutian's face, and said after considering it.

"Oh?! What does Nianhua want? As long as it is what I can give, I will definitely let someone present it to Nianhua." Yuan Mutian lowered his head, put his face close to Nianhua, and smiled softly.

Nianhua withdrew his face back without showing any trace, almost unable to hold back and wanted to push away this handsome dog emperor who thought he was handsome.

"I want to enter the emperor's guard camp as soon as possible and start training." Nian Hua said heartily.

Yuan Mutian's complexion suddenly turned gloomy and cold. Under the fiery sunlight, Nianhua seemed to be frozen tightly by those two inorganic gazes.

"What did you say?" Yuan Mutian said calmly.There is no ups and downs in the tone, but it contains a storm that makes people tremble.

Nianhua broke away from his arms, and said angrily: "Your Majesty, do you still remember what you said at the beginning? You said that you want me to come back to help you pacify the world, and you also said earlier that you would allow me to enter the guard camp first as a guard. But until today I have been in Beijing for more than half a month, but you just let me stay in this harem with nothing to do. You are not joking, Your Majesty, when did you..."

"Shut up!" Yuan Mutian yelled, gritted his teeth, "I have my own opinions. What are you, it's your turn to ask?!"

"Then what exactly is your claim?!" Nian Hua was also angry, this naked contempt was absolutely unbearable for him.He clenched his fists with both hands, several uncontrollable dark winds overflowed from his palms, shaking the body of a big tree behind him violently, shaking off the green leaves all over the ground.

Although the palace people behind Yuan Mutian were afraid of Yuan Mutian's anger, they all looked up curiously because of the fresh green leaves falling one after another. This is really not a normal phenomenon in this kind of weather.However, the palace people didn't know what was going on, but Yuan Mutian knew it very well.

The young man in front of him has changed from his previous joking or docile or gentle appearance, and his eyes are staring at him brightly, implying unjust anger.

"You want to leave that much?" Yuan Mutian slightly narrowed his eyes to look at Nianhua, and said coldly.

"I just want the emperor to fulfill your promise!" Nianhua gritted his teeth and said, "I don't care what your plan is, what kind of royal harem is this, it's a home and a gentle town for you, but I can't stay for a day at all. !"

Yuan Mutian's right hand was firmly grasped under the wide dragon robe, but his face remained calm, looking at Nianhua's furious face.

After a while, he slowly opened his mouth and said: "I promise you that I will not let you live in Nianhua Palace forever. But you'd better wait obediently, if there is any disrespect again, you will get out of Xiao Country!" After saying that, he took the people away without even looking at Nianhua.

Xiao Lizi didn't dare to approach Nian Hua lightly until Yuan Mutian was gone, turned to him, and saw that he still had an angry look on his face.

"Young Master──" Xiao Lizi called softly.Nianhua turned to look at him, forced a smile, and said, "Let's go back first."

"My lord, why didn't you leave the country of Xiao? Anyway, you are so capable, the emperor can't do anything to you at all." Xiao Lizi followed Nianhua for a while, hesitated, and finally spoke softly.

Nianhua stopped in his tracks, and was silent for a moment under the strange glances of eunuchs and maids from various palaces passing by on the road in the garden, before he said: "We have a saying, where we fell, we got up from there. I was I was treated as prostitution here, and until now, they still haven't changed their views. I'm going to start here, from Yuan Mutian's palace and court, so that they can open their dog eyes and see clearly that I am younger than I am. All of them are strong! Stand taller than all of them!"

Xiao Lizi hurriedly covered Nianhua's mouth, his face was flushed red, and he whispered eagerly: "Young master, you...keep your voice down, and be careful not to be heard by others."

Nianhua took Xiao Lizi's hand away, and grinned at him: "I know the seriousness. It's okay, my brother has good internal skills. Within the effective range of my voice just now, there are only a few ants chasing aphids to graze. People heard it." Seeing Xiao Lizi heaving a sigh of relief, Nianhua smiled again, and pulled Xiao Lizi up and ran: "Go, it's so hot, go back and eat watermelon!"

Yixin Court.

It was hot outside, but the room separated by a door was cool and comfortable.A veil separates the inner room, and a graceful figure sits behind the veil.

Kneeling on the ground was a young eunuch wearing the uniform of a handyman eunuch, his forehead touched the ground, and he did not dare to raise it a little.

"Get up." After a while, the woman behind the light gauze said softly, "What do you see? What do you hear?"

The little eunuch raised his head slightly, and said respectfully: "I would like to report to the imperial concubine, the emperor was there at that time, and the little one didn't dare to get too close, so what he could see and hear was limited. Mr. Nian was on the way to the emperor's empress Yixinyuan, After waiting for two hours, and in broad daylight, he flirted with the emperor, and the emperor... laughed and hugged him and went away."

The woman held the silk handkerchief tightly in her pretty hands, but her voice remained calm: "Speak."

The little eunuch swallowed his saliva, and continued: "The emperor seems to be taking Young Master Nian to the direction of the Longxing Palace──" He raised his eyes to look at the woman behind the light gauze.

The Dragon Palace is the emperor's bedroom.According to the rules of the harem, no one is allowed to enter the harem except the emperor's biological mother, the empress dowager, and the emperor's wife, the empress.

Concubine You Gui picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corners of her rosy lips, then said softly: "Speak."

"Later, Young Master Nian seemed to have a dispute with the Emperor over something. The Emperor was furious, but he just reprimanded Young Master Nian and left."

"Didn't you take the son of that year with you?"

"No. Young Master Nian has brought the little eunuch back to Nianhua Palace."

There was another silence, until the soft female voice sounded behind the white gauze, and the little eunuch dared to let out a sigh of relief.

"Hong'er, bring the reward silver and send Eunuch out."

A maid agreed, and came out from behind the gauze, holding a bag of things wrapped in silk handkerchiefs, and walked towards the little eunuch.

"Eunuch, please."

The little eunuch glanced at the heavy silk handkerchief, his brows brightened, he thanked Concubine You Gui, and followed the maidservant out.

"Your Majesty, this young master is more difficult to deal with than before." A maidservant in Tsing Yi pushed aside the white gauze, walked back to Concubine You who was sitting on the soft couch, and said while gently helping her to lie down.

"Oh? Just tell me, he's not easy to deal with." Concubine You folded her clothes on the couch, closed her eyes, and said wearily.

The maidservant in Tsing Yi continued: "Young lady, don't you think that the emperor likes to try new things the most? It's not like the emperor has never seen a woman who swore to die after three chastity and nine fierceness. But like him, he used to be infatuated with the seeds, and every day Looking forward to the emperor, but now he picks up Joe. When he laughs, he is like a coquettish fox, giving him some sweetness, and then pretending to speak righteously. If the emperor is not interested in him, he will die. But looking at it now The emperor seems to be interested again, so isn't his trick of playing hard to get more effective."

Concubine You Gui was annoyed when she heard that, and thinking of her miserable life in the period when she was young and blessed, she said impatiently: "Okay, how is your Majesty, I won't be able to see it? I want you, a slave, to talk too much. "

The maidservant in Tsing Yi hastily lowered her head to admit her mistake, rolled her eyes, but smiled lightly again: "However, you don't have to worry too much. No matter what he is, he is a man who can't give birth to children. Besides, he is already over 20 years old, wait for him Old and decrepit, no matter how tricky he is, the emperor will look at him more? But the empress, judging by the emperor's consistent attitude, as long as the empress covets this dragon son, the position in the middle palace is none other than the empress .”

Concubine You closed her eyes slightly, with faint smile lines on the corners of her mouth.
