Narcissus Self-Saving System

After listening to the system, Xi Nan really thought about it seriously.

He had to admit that many of Xue Zhuang's words were very moving.

"There is only a reason for soldiers to sacrifice for the people, not for the people to sacrifice for the soldiers."

"City government, calculations, and soldiers are not tired of deceit. They are for the enemy and should not be for our own people."

"The word loyalty and filial piety comes first, and my personal feelings should always be put last."

……

In the end, Xi Nan said: "Xue Zhuang is really a good man who is dedicated to his family and country, and lives and dies for the people. Is there any woman who would not be moved by such a person? But I am a man, and I am straight. To him ...Probably a little bit of appreciation."

System: "Tsk. Is it really just admiration?"

Xi Nan: "Don't gossip. It's time to go. Didn't it say that this place is haunted? Be careful that the ghosts of Li Jieyu and Liu Baolin will come here for a while.

System: "Hey... Hey. You bully others!"

Xi Nan: "I'm going to sleep, kneel down!"

System: "Hmph, you haven't been concubine yet, and you're still showing off to the system?"

Xi Nan: "Hey, look, there is a ghost there! Is it Li Jieyu? Or Liu Baolin?!"

Then Xi Nan didn't hear the system speak again for a long time.

He only saw a line of words slipping through his mind: "Warning! Warning! Your system XX07 is temporarily paralyzed due to excessive surprise, and the main server is being repaired. Please don't act rashly during this time, otherwise, without the help of the system, You may be in danger."

Xi Nan: "..."

——It turns out that it is really afraid of ghosts.It's an unnerving system.

A month later.

During this month, Xi Nan hardly saw Emperor Zhu Guanyu.

One of the reasons is that Zhu Guanyu officially married the queen.

The government is currently firmly controlled by the Empress Dowager De and Uncle Wang Yu.

The queen that Zhu Guanyu married was the daughter of the uncle Wang Yu, named Wang Yanran.

The Wang family is clearly determined to win the country of Xia.

After just one month in the palace, Zhu Guanyu didn't dare to come here, and Xue Zhuang and Xi Nan didn't act rashly either.

During this period, Xue Zhuang only sneaked out of the palace once, and contacted Xue Qiuyun with friends.

Later, he finally received Xue Qiuyun's reply letter, knowing that they were safe, he was able to rest assured.

As for Xi Nan, relying on his ability to get along with others, as well as the money in the system package, he got along well with all the court ladies and eunuchs in the harem, and lived a leisurely life.

Xi Nan's method of building a good relationship with people is very advanced, and it is not limited to just giving money.

The courtiers in the palace are not rough girls who work, and many of them have studied for several years, so Xi Nan is very good at picking up what he likes.

There are especially many people in the palace who like "plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums". Whether it is arty or sincere, Xi Nan heard it clearly, and specifically found a way to get people to go outside the palace to buy related paintings, porcelain, and even engraved with these. Hairpins with patterns were secretly given to the palace people.

The palace people who received the gifts were satisfied, and the guards who had the means to help him buy these things outside the palace earned enough money, so they were also satisfied.

It can be said that everyone is happy.

If these things are exposed, everyone will suffer, so everyone keeps their mouths shut and keeps everything going quietly.

By the way, Xi Nan also found out that Queen Wang Yanran really likes plum blossoms.

Xi Nan specially kept a picture of winter plum blossoms and a wooden hairpin engraved with vivid plum blossoms, thinking that one day they might be used to please the queen.

In the evening of this day, Xi Nan made hot-boiled mutton in the yard.

Shave off some fat, boil the oil in a pot, and then stir-fry with seasonings such as onion, ginger, and pepper, and the strong aroma immediately fills the entire courtyard.When the aroma comes out, pour water into it and boil, then you can boil it.

The two maids sent by the Empress Dowager were named Taohong and Liulu.

The two of them stared eagerly at the gate of the palace, almost drooling.

Xi Nan beckoned them to sit down and eat together.

Taohongliulu is sorry, Xi Nan only said that the palace gate is closed, no one can see it, and it doesn't get in the way.

When saying this, Xi Nan winked at the two of them.

The palace lanterns shone in his eyes like shining stars.

A few red plums bloomed beside him, and the red plums met his face. Spring would still come, but Xi Nan's smile seemed to have brought the spring breeze.

The two maids fell in love with the smell of the food, and they also fell in love with the man's lust, and finally went forward to eat hot pot with Xi Nan.

After all, the two girls are still young, and during the one month they lived here, they were treated with kindness by such a good-looking man every day, and they gradually forgot all about the Queen Mother's entrustment.

The thinly sliced ​​mutton is hot in a boiling pot, and it is cooked quickly. When it is hot, it is served in the mouth. The coolness of the cold winter is not felt at all.

The four quickly finished several large plates of mutton, and Xi Nan boiled vegetables in the pot again, and couldn't help sighing: "It's really delicious, just add some wine. Do you want it?"

Tao Hong got up immediately: "I'll go to the small kitchen and get it for the little general!"

Seeing that Tao Hong would please Xi Nan like this, Liu Lu hurriedly stood up, "You're such a clumsy girl, I should serve the little general!"

Xi Nan glanced at the two of them with a smile. When he was about to pick up some food, he felt something, and looked sideways, and Xue Zhuang, who was sitting beside him, was staring at him thoughtfully.

Xi Nan couldn't help sighing, this 17-year-old boy always hides his emotions too deeply.

For example, now, Xi Nan only felt that his eyes were a little hot, and seemed to be smiling, but there was clearly something different, making it difficult for people to see his true emotions.

"What's wrong?" Xi Nan asked him.

"It's nothing." Xue Zhuang smiled faintly, looked at him and said, "You will please the little girl, and I'm starting to be jealous of you."

Xi Nan blinked.

Xue Zhuang said again: "When I was in Liaocheng before, apart from Changying, who was always following me, and my spoiled cousin Qiuyun, other girls always shunned me when they saw me, as if I was something terrible. Monster. But they treat you differently. It's strange. You look like me."

Xi Nan lowered his head and took a bite of the food, thought for a while, and then said: "Maybe when they look at you most of the time, you are wearing iron armor, so you look scary."

Xue Zhuang said: "I also wear ordinary clothes sometimes."

He asked me what this is for?I didn't see any girl he was interested in?Why are you still asking this question?

Xi Nan was a little puzzled, but he also said truthfully: "When you faced the enemy on the battlefield, your expression was serious, and your eyes were probably bluffing, and you naturally carried a bit of hostility on your body. It must have been like that for a long time, and you are used to it." If you look at people with that terrible look, it makes people feel afraid to look directly at them. They are afraid of you, so how dare they get close to you?"

"Really?" Xue Zhuang looked at Xi Nan, but suddenly asked, "Then you are also afraid of me and think I'm not easy to get close to?"

Xi Nan blinked a few more times, and then asked, "Are you worried that you won't be able to marry a good girl in the future?"

The corner of Xue Zhuang's mouth twitched, and his smile was a little unclear. "I have become the emperor's male favorite, and I still expect to marry a girl?"

It seems to be the same.

Xi Nan took a mouthful of food guiltily, "This is only temporary, don't blame me..."

"I don't blame you. I agreed to sing this play with His Majesty." Xue Zhuang smiled, "I just asked casually. Don't mind."

Xi Nan waved his hand, "But you don't have to worry, everyone is just a little scared when they first look at you. After getting to know you, they will see your gentle and meticulous side, so they won't be afraid of you anymore. I That's exactly what it is."

Xi Nanxin said that the first time he saw Xue Zhuang was when he pointed a sword at him and asked him to die for him.

At that time, he was naturally afraid of Xue Zhuang.

But later, when he gradually got to know Xue Zhuang, Xi Nan was not only not afraid, but also felt sorry for Xue Zhuang's situation.

"Mm. That's good." Xue Zhuang said such an ambiguous sentence, but he also picked up a piece of food and ate it.

good?What good?Where is it?

Xi Nan didn't fully understand, so he only glanced in the direction of the small kitchen. Seeing that the wine had almost been warmed up by the peach blossoms and willows, and was about to walk towards this place, he whispered to Xue Zhuang, "Why are you serious about pleasing girls? Yes, I won’t either. Send them some gadgets, treat them to hot pot or something, isn’t it just to instigate them. They will definitely come in handy later. Hmm…”

Xi Nan sighed. "But what you said reminded me. I might have to sell my manhood—"

When Xi Nan said this, he sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, so he had nothing to say and started talking nonsense.

He didn't expect that after he said this, the atmosphere became even more strange, and Xue Zhuang's eyes seemed to sink completely.

"You just said... betrayed what?" Xue Zhuang suddenly asked, his voice suddenly became very deep.

Xi Nan looked at him again, and found that the smile on his face had faded away, and he actually frowned and looked at himself with rather sharp eyes.

Xue Zhuang's eyes gave Xi Nan an illusion for a moment.

——As if he had caught him cheating on me.

Xi Nan blinked his eyes and put aside his nonsensical thoughts.

At this time, Tao Hong Liu Lu came over with wine.

Xi Nan secretly heaved a sigh of relief, finally someone came, and he could logically avoid Xue Zhuang's extremely oppressive gaze.

Xi Nan got up immediately, and happily ran to get the wine.

This move caught Xue Zhuang's eyes, and it seemed that he could not wait to run to the other two girls in order to avoid himself.

So Xue Zhuang frowned even tighter.

Xi Nan didn't expect that, just as he walked in front of Taohong Liulu, before he took the wine, his father-in-law's voice came from outside the gate of Lanya Palace.

"It's not dark yet, the gate of Lanya Palace is closed, don't be doing something shady."

Tao Hong immediately looked at Xi Nan, and said in a low voice, "It's the person next to the queen."

After Tao Hong finished speaking, Liu Lu put down the wine and hurried to open the door.

Xue Zhuang also got up, walked to the gate of the palace, and waited there.

The person who came was the father-in-law of the Queen's Huaming Palace. After he entered the courtyard, Xi Nan hurried forward and said, "Don't get me wrong, father-in-law. You have also seen the pots and ingredients in the courtyard. I am just greedy." Let’s boil some mutton and eat it. The mutton tastes great and it’s close to the central court. Didn’t the door be closed for fear that the smell would pass over and it wouldn’t be suitable. Did the father-in-law have dinner? Have some here? I’ll go there again in person Can I have some meat for you?"

The father-in-law took a look at Xi Nan and said, "Your Majesty passed by here, and she fell in love with the plum trees here. I'll ask someone to get some of them in a while, don't you mind?"

Xi Nan understood now.This is the Queen coming to find fault.

Speaking of which, since the queen entered the harem, Xi Nan had never seen her.

It stands to reason that the concubines below the queen are going to pay their respects every day.

But first of all, Xi Nan has not been conferred, he is just a male favourite.

He is going to pay his respects, and others may think that he is not qualified.

Secondly, Xi Nan is a man after all, so it is inconvenient to go to the Queen's Palace.

Xi Nantuo went to ask the queen mother and the queen what they meant, and the queen probably meant that seeing is not seeing.

Xi Nan was also very happy.

From other people, Xi Nan also heard that the queen likes plum blossoms, and she is also like plum blossoms, cold and aloof, afraid that she can't get used to dirty things like raising male pets.

She prides herself on being talented, not inferior to men.If it wasn't for the orders of her parents, for the sake of the Wang family, she might even look down on the emperor Zhu Guanyu.

With such a background, coupled with such a noble temperament, she disdains to compete with others, especially with a man.

I just don't know why she suddenly found fault with Lanya Palace.

While Xi Nan was curious, he felt that he couldn't be led by the queen. After thinking for a while, he came up with an idea.
