sick!Seedlings?

Four days later, the palace.

Today, above the main hall, the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty are very complete.

As usual, the monarch and his ministers discussed matters first, and then the topic slowly came to Mo Lian.

"Your Majesty, I don't know how your Majesty thinks about drafting girls?" The veteran's voice was vicissitudes, but his eyes were extremely sharp.You don't need to guess and you know it's from Dongfang Yinqi.

Mo Lian's gentle face showed some impatience: "I haven't thought about this matter yet, so we'll discuss it another day."

"Your Majesty, don't wow! Your Majesty is in the prime of life and should expand the harem as soon as possible to spread the branches and leaves for me." The old minister had a loyal look on his face, and those who didn't know really thought he was a loyal minister.

Indeed, he had no reason to refute the old minister's words for failing to fulfill the emperor's duty to leave blood for the royal family.Mo Lian gave Yunsheng a look, and Yunsheng immediately understood: "I have something to play, nothing to do..."

"His Majesty."

Dongfang Yinqi took a step in the middle, facing Mo Lian with a dull expression, and said every word very clearly: "Since ancient times, every emperor has two responsibilities. The first responsibility is to do our best for the country and stabilize the hearts of the people. The second responsibility is to expand The harem, leave the emperor's veins. Your Majesty's people's hearts are not stable, and there is no harem, and the two responsibilities have been lost, so it is difficult to stabilize the emperor's career."

Although his words were sharp, they were all true. Right now, the court is in turmoil and the hearts of the people are not stable. If there is no more prince, the emperor will indeed sit in a panic.

However, the prince can have one, the key depends on who the prince's mother is.

Mo Lian was kept silent when asked, and the whole court immediately became lively.

"That's right, His Majesty has indeed failed to achieve any of these two points."

"I wonder if this will cause public outrage?"

"Your Majesty is so ashamed of the former emperor!"

The more you say the following words, the more ugly they are, and the more you say them, the less consistent they are.

"You can choose a show girl, or you can have one in the harem, but your majesty has to choose the empress himself." As soon as Shangguan Chen said this, the entire court, including Mo Lian, was stunned.

Dongfang Yin smiled in his phoenix eyes, he took a few steps to the side and stood facing Shangguan Chen.Dongfang Yin smiled on his face, but his eyes were icy cold: "Oh? Listening to Mr. Shangguan, it means that His Majesty already has a candidate for queen in his heart?"

Shangguan Chen nodded with a smile, his delicate face was full of indifference: "Nothing." He ignored Dongfang Yinqi's deep gaze and turned to Shang Molian, "This matter is entirely up to His Majesty."

"Your Majesty's words are wrong. Your Majesty's marriage is a major matter concerning the people of Dayuan Kingdom. How can His Majesty make the decision?"

"Bold! Your majesty has blocked you here before you speak. Do you still remember the most basic way of being a monarch?!" Shangguan Chen looked at the old minister coldly, his delicate eyebrows were lowered, "Shao Nian, as a Courtier, what crime should you commit?!"

Shao Nian squinted at Dongfang Yinqi from the corner of his eyes and saw that he didn't respond. Knowing that he had indeed said something inappropriate, he immediately knelt down with a "plop" and said, "It's about the state of Dayuan. I hope your Majesty will forgive me for speaking out in a moment of impatience." !"

Dongfang Yin straightened his waist, he quietly looked at Shao Nian and did not intend to speak, and the whole room exchanged glances with civil and military officials and did not speak.After a long time, Mo Lian finally said, "It's true that I didn't choose what to say."

Shao Nian gasped, his old legs couldn't stop shaking a few times.Mo Lian was silent for a moment, his face suddenly changed from cloudy to clear, and he squeezed out a smile: "But Aiqing has done her best to work hard for my Great Yuan Country. Since Aiqing knows that she is wrong, I will leave this matter to you. Decide."

"But, Your Majesty..."

Shao Nian wanted to say something, but was blocked by the last sentence: "Back to the court."

"..."

Out of the main hall, Shangguan Chen saw Shao Nian talking behind Dongfang Yinqi's buttocks, his expression was rather terrified and pitiful, Shangguan Chen guessed that the old man was probably trying to make up for the hole he poked just now.

Shao Nian chased Dongfang Yinqi and said a lot, but Dongfang Yinqi never looked at him directly from the beginning to the end, he seemed really angry.

Following Dongfang Yinqi out of the distance, he finally took the time to take a look at Shao Nian.Shangguan Chen couldn't quite see the specific expressions of the two of them from a distance, but he vaguely felt that Dongfang Yinqi seemed to say something with a cool look in his eyes.Then Shao Nian lowered his head, stopped walking, and stopped following.

Shangguanchen thought to himself, it is really not easy to work under Dongfang Yinqi.

Because of his weak body, he walked slowly, and by the time Shangguanchen left the palace, all the officials had long since disappeared.

Sweat trickled down the neck and into the front of the front, and the chest was dizzy with water, and the strand of black hair hanging on the face was completely wet.Shangguan Chen supported the palace door and took a short breath, a voice sounded above his head, Shangguan Chen supported his head and slowly raised his head.

"Sir Shangguan is really a great loyal minister when he is sick like this and still has to worry about state affairs." Dongfang Yinqi looked at him with a half-smile, his eyes full of sarcasm.

The corners of Shangguan Chen's lips were slightly raised, and the corners of his eyes were clear springs, as if he didn't care about his words: "Xiangguo forced His Majesty to draft girls like this, I don't know if Xiangguo is a loyal minister?"

Dongfang Yinqi laughed in a low voice, there seemed to be a real smile in his eyes.He took a step forward, bent over and met Shangguan Chen's eyes: "What do you think, Lord Shangguan?"

Shangguan Chen felt that the surrounding air was a little dry, he coughed twice, looked at Dongfang Yinqi coldly, "I think?"

"Yes, you think."

Shangguan Chen straightened the broken hair around his ears, gritted his teeth and stood up straight.He moved slowly, and passed Dongfang Yinqi directly: "No."

Behind him, Dongfang Yinqi's eyes darkened.He stood with his hands behind his back and quietly watched Shangguan Chen's back, until he lifted the curtain, until he got into the carriage, until he left in the carriage.

Standing behind Dongfang Yinqi, Ding Yun bowed and said: "Master, Shangguan Chen has repeatedly attacked him with words, do you need me to teach him a lesson?"

"A lesson?" Dongfang Yinqi turned around, his eyes a little gloomy.

Although Dongfang Yinqi looks serious on weekdays, he doesn't easily criticize others, unless that person has really committed some serious mistakes.But every time the adults feel unhappy, they often have this gloomy expression on their faces.Ding Yun knew that his lord was angry, so he quickly lowered his head and said nothing.

"Don't let me hear such words again." After finishing speaking, Dongfang Yinqi turned and left with strong steps.

That night, a heavy rain enveloped the whole of Kyoto.

Shangguanchen woke up in the thunder and lightning, coughing continuously, and cold sweat soaked a large area of ​​the quilt.

There was a patter of rain, a bang of thunder, and the window of Diaoyun was knocked open by the wind, followed by a cool wind with dampness.

The cough became louder, and San'er opened the door and came in with wet face.He rushed to the bed, grabbed Shangguan Chen's arm and shook it vigorously: "My lord! My lord! What's wrong with you?!"

Shangguan Chen rolled his eyes in his heart, and if he continued like this, he would have to go to the underworld to sign in early if he had nothing to do.

"Cough cough, San'er... you go find... Uncle Qin... cough cough..."

After hearing this, San'er finally stopped moving and disappeared at the door. Shangguan Chen took a deep breath to slow down.

Looks like I'm going to get sick again.

This body is really heart-wrenching.

San'er went to call Uncle Qin, and Uncle Qin went to call the doctor, who told about his illness, and the faces of the servant girl and Uncle Qin turned pale.

Looking at the adults on the sickbed, a sense of sadness emerged spontaneously.San'er fell to the ground all of a sudden, crying so loudly: "My lord, my lord, my miserable lord... woo woo..."

With a mournful voice as if his cousin had just died, Qin Gu stepped forward and pulled San'er up, scolding him with a stern face: "What's the point of crying before your lord dies?!"

San'er bent over and stood up, shrinking to a corner of the wall.Ai Ai's period was full of eyes, her nose was twitching, and from time to time she glanced at Shangguan Chen on the couch who was breathing like a gossamer, her whole body was full of sadness.

"Master, what's the matter with you?" Shangguan Chen looked extremely weak, and his brow was really sweating.

The master won't be unable to survive this time, will he?No, the system shows that the owner's lifespan is not so short, but the owner looks like a person with one foot in the coffin.

Looking at Shangguan Chen's appearance, Zhen Zhen was both puzzled and worried.

Shangguan Chen moved his eyelids, and the look in his eyes was dull: "Really, I'm afraid I'm going to die."

Really "wow" burst into tears, after staying with Shangguan Chen for more than [-] years, they still have feelings.

"True." Shangguan Chen shook his pale eyelids and gave Zhenzhen a look that was neither too big nor too small, "You're so noisy, I won't...cough cough...don't die of illness...also...also... ...I'm going to...be yelled to death by you..."

The crying stopped abruptly, and she looked at Shangguan Chen with teary eyes, eyes full of discomfort: "Master, you..."

"Don't worry, I won't die." After finishing speaking, Shangguan Chen closed his eyes and stopped talking.

Hearing what Shangguan Chen said, Zhen Zhen's heart finally calmed down a little, and he just stared at the frail figure on the couch.

"Uncle Qin! The imperial physician is here!" shouted the servant as he ran into the house, followed by an imperial physician with a silver beard.

Glancing at the imperial doctor, Qin Gu was overjoyed for a while, it turned out to be the head of the imperial physician - Liu Yuyi.Qin Gu hurried forward to meet him: "Yuyu Liu, my lord's old illness has relapsed, and the situation is very critical now, please hurry up and take a look."

Doctor Liu gave Shangguan Chen a careful look, but he couldn't find out what happened. He looked puzzled, and looked up at Qin Gu: "When did Lord Shangguan start to have this disease?"

Qin Gu frowned, and immediately replied: "Your Excellency entered the palace today for the morning court, and it will be like this within a few hours after returning."

"Yeah." Doctor Liu stroked his beard thoughtfully, "Just now I took the pulse of Mr. Shangguan, and there was no recurrence of the old disease. But, for some reason, Mr. Sweat broke out all over his body, and he still had a high fever. Very weak."

When Qin Gu heard this, he became even more anxious, his face wrinkled badly: "Doctor Liu, how should we do this!"

Doctor Liu silently glanced at Shangguan Chen, and shook his head helplessly: "I'm really sorry, this disease is strange and difficult to deal with. So, I can only give you another diagnosis tomorrow after consulting with the rest of the imperial doctors." After finishing speaking, Doctor Liu turned around and left the room.

Even if the fire was imminent, Qin Gu did not forget the etiquette.He ordered his servants to send Imperial Physician Liu out of the house, while he stood there and looked at Shangguan Chen sadly.

San'er ran to the bed again, weeping secretly towards the pale and weak face on the couch.

Qin Gu put one hand on San'er's shoulder and patted, sighing silently.

Can adults not escape this time?

In the middle of the night, a bright yellow figure appeared in Shangguan Mansion.

The figure hurriedly walked through the corridors and stopped in front of Shangguan Chen's room door.The man seemed to hesitate for a moment, and after a while, he finally pushed the door and walked in.

In the room, a candle was burning alone, and circles of smoke floated in the air.

As soon as Mo Lian entered the door, he saw a figure on the couch, he slowly closed the door, walked to the edge of the bed lightly and sat down.

The person on the couch was already asleep, and his delicate eyebrows and eyes were painfully tangled even in sleep.

Raising his hand, he slowly stroked Shangguan Chen's eyebrows.As soon as he put his hand on, Mo Lian quickly retracted his hand.After thinking for a while, he put his hand back on Shangguan Chen's brow again, caressing it back and forth: "Zian, are you okay?"

Mo Lian's voice echoed in the room with heartache mixed in, like a ray of light in the silent night, reflected on Shangguan Chen's body.

The person on the couch moved, Mo Lian thought that he had woken Shangguan Chen up, so he quickly withdrew his hand and just looked at the person quietly.

Shangguanchen turned over unconsciously with his eyes closed, and the posture after turning over was just facing Shang Molian.His lips were dry and peeled, and the sickly blush on his face was a bit more charming than his pale skin.

Molian's eyes changed, and the retracted hand stretched out again.The hand paused on the side of Shangguan Chen's face, but couldn't help but land on that haggard face: "Zian."

Shangguan Chen lost weight and was haggard, and Mo Lian blamed himself for a while.

I heard from Doctor Liu that Shangguan Chen's illness was very strange. It was clearly not a relapse of the old disease, but it was just a sick appearance. What's going on?Could it be that someone deliberately harmed him?

If that's the case, then when he catches the person who hurt Shangguan Chen, he...will definitely not forgive him lightly.

A wave of ruthlessness flashed across Mo Lian's eyes, and when he looked again, there was only warmth and pity in those eyes, as if the ruthlessness had never existed before.

Mo Lian's hand stroked Shangguan Chen's face several times, and finally stopped at his eyebrows.Molian's gaze became deeper than before, and his breathing seemed to be a lot heavier.

If someone shakes Mu Lian's hand right now, he will surely find that his palm is as hot as fire at this moment.

Under the dim candlelight, the hand reluctantly left Shangguan Chen's pale face, and the heat in the palm gradually dissipated.

When he got up in the morning, Shangguan Chen's head was groggy, it was the iron ball filled with lead.He barely stood up with the help of the bedpost, and groped in the direction of the table.

With a crisp sound, the teapot and cup shattered to the ground.

When Qin Gu opened the door and came in, what he saw was Shangguan Chen sitting on the ground and the fragments of the teapot falling all over the floor. Shangguan Chen's hands were bleeding, and Qin Gu yelled "Oops" in his heart and trot to Shangguan Chen to take him away. Help him up: "My lord, what are you doing? If you want to drink water, just tell the people below to do it. Now that your lord is still sick, you can't do these things yourself."

Shangguan Chen pulled his lips weakly, but he didn't smile in the end.Today's body is really too weak, but it is very different from the usual weakness.

what happened?

Qin Gu supported Shangguan Chen to sit on the chair, and briefly helped him heal his wounds, before going to the kitchen to arrange meals.

Shangguan Chen sat at the table, feeling weak all over.

"Master, haven't you been drugged?" Zhenzhen jumped out with dark circles on his face.

Shangguan Chen was a little surprised by Zhenzhen's state: "Zhenzhen, what's wrong with your eyes?"

Zhenzhen stared at Shangguanchen with an expression of asking knowingly since you knew it: "Master, am I worried that you didn't sleep well last night?"

Shangguan Chen slowly raised the corners of his lips, and he was really conscientious: "I'm fine. You can also see that this illness is very strange. I have to find out about it."

"Well, how does the master plan to investigate?" Zhenzhen glanced at Shangguan Chen secretly, a little embarrassed, "After all, the master is really too weak right now."

Shangguan Chen stared at the teacup in front of him, his eyes suddenly became very firm, and his trembling voice was also confident: "This, I have my own way."

Doctor Liu in the palace followed His Majesty's orders early in the morning to take Shangguanchen's pulse, but the result was still the same.After doctor Liu took the pulse, he gave Shangguan Chen instructions as usual, and then walked away with three sighs.

Due to illness, Shangguan Chen and Mo Lian took leave of absence.After breakfast, he looked at the sun in the yard, and sat on the recliner to bask in the sun.

The sun at noon was warm, and it shone on people lazily. Not long after, Shangguanchen fell asleep in a daze.

After an unknown amount of time, a slender figure appeared in front of Shangguan Chen.

The man bent down slightly, and stretched out his hand to shield Shangguan Chen from the scorching sun above his head.

The fallen leaves in late autumn fluttered and fell with the breeze, just in time for Shangguan Chen's hair.The man bent his waist again, and stretched out his fingers to gently remove the leaves.The black hair brushed Shangguan Chen's cheeks inadvertently. Shangguan Chen moved his eyelids, opened them slowly, and then froze.

In front of him, a man's face was close at hand, and a pair of long and narrow phoenix eyes were looking at him in a smooth and uneven way.

Shangguan Chen subconsciously backed away, backed up a few times but found that he was still in place, Shangguan Chen realized that he was sitting on the recliner right now.

Slowly pulling out a fairly natural smile, Shangguan Chen cleared his throat and pretended to be calm: "Why did Xiangguo come to the house when you have time?" Looking behind Dongfang Yinqi, there was no Qin Gu or San'er, Shangguan Chen knew for a moment, "Xiangguo didn't come in through the wall again, did he?"

Dongfang Yin was stunned on his face and still maintained the movement of bending over just now, an unknown smile slowly formed on the corner of his lips: "How do you know?"

Shangguanchen looked up at Dongfang Yinqi, because of the angle, he could only hold his neck high.The lines on the neck are graceful and tight, very beautiful, Shangguan Chen smiled slightly: "Didn't Xiangguo enter Shangguan's mansion like that when the heavy rain swept the entire capital last time?"

With his deep eyes closed, Dongfang Yinqi lowered his body a lot, and his pair of phoenix eyes approached Shangguan Chen's.He seemed to be smiling unintentionally, but the smile was full of threats: "I am the dignified Prime Minister of Dayuan Country, and the country turned over the courtyard of your assistant minister. It is not very pleasant to spread the word. These strange words will be weighed in the future, Mr. Shangguan." Better."

Dongfang Yinqi overturned the courtyard wall of Shangguan's mansion. Although there was no stone hammer, it was almost inseparable.It's just that Dongfang Yinqi's death is not a bad thing now, so it's better for him not to make any more troubles.

Shangguan Chen turned sideways to take advantage of the situation and stood up from the reclining chair. He staggered a little because he got up in a hurry. Dongfang Yinqi made a gesture to come over to help him, and Shangguan Chen immediately dodged to the side.

Dongfang Yinqi caught a gap in the air, loosened and tightened one hand, after a long while, it finally fell down and put it into his sleeve.

"Xiangguo is very right. A person as bright and upright as Xiangguo would not do those things that stealthily lower his status." Shangguan Chen deliberately emphasized the tone of the words "sneaky".

"Naturally." Dongfang Yinqi quickly adjusted his state, and regained his usual indifference and alienation on his face.

"I don't know why Xiangguo came to my house today for something?"

Dongfang Yinqi straightened his back, raised his thick black eyebrows, and said something half-truthful and half-false, yin and yang: "Shangguan Lord didn't go to the morning court today, I am very worried about it, so I came here to have a look."

"Really?" Shangguan Chen smiled faintly, "Xiangguo is here, and I have seen it, and I am fine. If there is nothing else, Xiangguo, please go back."

For a while, the blood was rolling in his chest, and his limbs were sore and weak. If Dongfang Yinqi didn't leave, he would show his secrets.

Dongfang Yinqi turned around and took a few steps outside, Shangguanchen secretly heaved a sigh of relief.Suddenly, he stopped, turned around abruptly and looked at Shangguan Chen's fingers, his brows were slightly frowned: "Are you injured?"

The blood in his body was rampant for a while, but finally Shangguan Chen couldn't suppress it anymore, and spat out a mouthful of dirty blood: "Pfft!"

"Shangguan Chen!"

The body fluttered down, like a leaf without a branch, helpless.Dongfang Yinqi caught him in time, picked him up horizontally with one hand, and brought him into the house.

"Master, Dongfang Yinqi seems to be treating the master...hehe...that..."

Shangguan Chen resolutely rolled his eyes and said, "Shut up!"

Really aggrieved, whispered to the side: "I'm telling the truth, why is the master so fierce?"

"The truth?" Shangguan Chen snorted, and the words behind him were weak, "When have you ever told me the truth? Really, are you kidding me?"

Zhenzhen smiled falsely, poked and fled secretly.

Dongfang Yinqi carefully placed Shangguan Chen on the bed, put his hand on Shangguan Chen's wrist to feel his pulse, and after a while, he finally let out a long sigh of relief: "Fortunately, there is nothing serious."

"Is... um... cough cough!" Shangguan Chen coughed so badly that his face quickly turned gray.

Dongfang Yinqi's voice was deep: "How are you?"

"I... cough cough..." Shangguan Chen shook his head weakly, "I'm afraid... I'm going to die..."

This time, Dongfang Yinqi didn't speak. After a while, his very firm voice came to Shangguan Chen Nuo's ear: "Don't worry, you won't die."

In a daze, it seemed as if something was being fed to his mouth.Shangguan Chen's expression gradually improved, and his eyes became clearer.

The door of the room was knocked open suddenly, and Yueliang Zhu Yan rushed in one after the other.

Seeing Dongfang Yinqi, Yue Liang forced her way to Shangguan Chen and pushed Dongfang Yinqi aside.Yue Liang turned back to observe Shangguan Chen's situation, with a layer of worry still hanging on his face: "Ah Chen, what's wrong with you?! It's all because Zhu Yan dragged me out these few days to relax and didn't stay by your side, otherwise you wouldn't Will it become like this?"

"Young Zhuangzhu's words are decent, if you are by his side, you may not be able to help him much." Although Dongfang Yinqi's words were not serious, they directly annoyed Yueliang.

Yue Liang stared and was about to show his power, but Zhu Yan could barely stand in front of Yue Liang, separating the two of them from staring at each other.He stood there calmly, and his words when he turned back were very appropriate: "Xiangguo's words are reasonable, but since Mr. Shangguan is fine right now, then Xiangguo should go back first."

Dongfang Yinqi had something else to say, Zhu Yan immediately added: "Xiangguo, go slowly, don't see him off."

Looking past Shangguan Chen, Dongfang Yinqi gave Zhu Yan a cold look, turned and left without saying a word.

The thorn in his side was gone, and Yue Liang spoke more freely.He put his hand on Shangguan Chen's forehead and touched it, heaved a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, I don't have a fever."

The moment the door closed, Shangguan Chen slowly opened his eyes.His eyes are clear and his complexion is moist, and there is no such sick description just now: "Yueliang don't worry, I'm fine."

Yue Liang looked at Shangguan Chen in disbelief, and stammered: "Ah Chen, you, you..."

Shangguan Chen slowly sat up from the couch, patted his chest: "It was just a cover-up, just to try to see if the sudden onset of illness was caused by Dongfang Yinqi."

Yueliang curled her lips: "The result?"

"As a result..." Shangguan Chen raised his lips and smiled, that smile was very seductive, like the lotus leaves in the pond in early summer, clean and beautiful, "It is indeed his fault."

Even though he didn't see what Dongfang Yinqi fed him just now, he could still make a rough guess.

After eating what Dongfang Yinqi fed him, his spirit gradually improved, and his body gradually gained strength. He didn't need to think about it, but he knew that it was the antidote.

This sudden "sickness" of myself was probably the drug that Dongfang Yinqi gave him outside the palace gate after the morning court yesterday.

Shangguan Chen felt cold in his heart, Dongfang Yinqi, you really are a sinister one.

Dongfang Yinqi was worried that he would make himself ill because of his Majesty Zhang Luoxiu's daughter, so he could do whatever he wanted.

Entrusting the servants of the mansion to enter the palace to report to His Majesty that he is safe, Shangguan Chen took a rest earlier.

The next day, Shangguan Chen was in good spirits, and sat alone in the front hall to eat.

Halfway through the meal, Zhen Zhen popped up again for no reason, grinning his teeth and grinning: "Master, tell me the truth, did you use the set meal yesterday?"

Shangguan Chen picked his eyelids, and admitted generously: "So what? I'm not weak, can he give me the antidote?"

Zhenzhen covered her mouth and turned pale with shock: "Master! I have never noticed that you are so black-bellied?! Are you not afraid that Dongfang Yinqi will take advantage of your serious illness to solve you if you go crazy yesterday?"

"Get rid of me?" Shangguan Chen smiled noncommittally, "Xiangguo met the assistant minister Shangguan Chen, and the assistant minister died suddenly. Do you think he can afford such a crime?"

I really don't know how to answer, I think the master is still on the IQ line.

Shangguan Chen smiled: "With his current power and my current reputation, he cannot bear such a crime."

Seemingly realizing it suddenly, he realized "Wow" after realizing it, and gave Shangguan Chen a big thumbs up: "Master, high wow!"

"My lord, are you still going to court today?" San'er stood aside respectfully, with a little tangled eyes, presumably worried about Shangguan Chen's body.

Shangguan Chen frowned, put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, and the look in his eyes was extremely firm: "Go."

Today's court meeting discussed the affairs of the court. Firstly, they discussed about Xiaoyuan Kingdom's recent imminent move on the border between the two countries, and then the topic slowly moved to Molian's marriage.

"Your Majesty, I have something to announce."

As soon as Shao Nian stood up, Mo Lian frowned indistinctly: "Speak."

"Your Majesty." This "Your Majesty" Shao Nian shouted heartbroken, and instantly attracted the attention of all the court hall.He sneaked a glance at Dongfang Yinqi who was standing at the front with the corner of his eye. Seeing that Dongfang Yinqi didn't respond, he continued to look at Mo Liandao, "Your Majesty, we can't delay the beautiful girl's entry into the palace any longer! Leave it for my Dayuan Kingdom." Royal bloodline is His Majesty's heavy responsibility, His Majesty should think twice about this matter!"

Shao Nian's remarks were sincere, and any bystander would probably be moved by his heroic loyalty.However, that person could not be Molian, let alone Shangguan Chen.

Shao Nian is Dongfang Yinqi's henchman.

This reason alone is enough to convince Shangguan Chen that Shao Nian's earth-shattering words are not out of loyalty but have other motives.

Mo Lian said in a deep voice: "I will make my own decision on this matter."

"His Majesty!"

"His Majesty!"

"His Majesty!"

Voices came out one after another in the court hall, and naturally the voices all came from Dongfang Yinqi's side.

"Your Majesty, this matter is related to the fate of our Great Yuan Nation, so we can't delay it any longer!"

Mo even pursed his lips without saying a word.

"Your Majesty's refusal over and over again, is it because you don't care about the fate of our Great Yuan Nation?"

As soon as Dongfang Yinqi said this, the whole room fell silent.

"Expanding the harem is a big deal, so naturally we can't be so hasty. What's more..."

Dongfang Yinqi stopped him halfway through his speech: "If Your Majesty has no suitable candidate, then I will recommend someone to Your Majesty."

Shangguan Chen couldn't help raising his eyebrows, it turned out that Dongfang Yinqi was waiting for His Majesty here.

"Yes, if Your Majesty doesn't have a suitable candidate, let Xiangguo recommend a suitable queen first."

"The left and right Xiangguo are great loyal ministers of the Great Yuan Kingdom, and the people recommended by the Xiangguo will never be wrong."

"It makes sense."

"Of course I already have a candidate in my heart." When Mo Lian said this, the crowd that had just boiled became quiet again.

"Oh?" Dongfang Yinqi raised his eyebrows, "I don't know who His Majesty is talking about?"

Mo Lian avoided Dongfang Yinqi's gaze, paused and said: "This man, before going to court next time, I will tell Xiangguo."

"Establishing a queen is the top priority of my Great Yuan Nation. How can such an important matter be vague? Besides, my lords also want to hear who your majesty's candidate is, so that you can help your majesty with staff. After all, after a country, the representative What matters is the dignity of my Great Yuan Nation, not everyone can be that."

Dongfang Yinqi turned his head and gave everyone a wink, and everyone immediately understood and echoed: "Yes, yes, who is that person, please let your majesty know."

The hands in the dragon robe were tightly clenched, and Mo Lian's face was a little ugly.His lips moved, and he glanced in Shangguan Chen's direction from time to time, but after a long while, he couldn't say a word.

Dongfang Yinqi carefully noticed Molian's gaze, and his brows were slightly frowned, showing a cold expression: "Since Your Majesty has no suitable candidate, I will recommend one."

"Your Majesty naturally has a suitable person in his heart." Shangguan Chen took a step to the side, stood in the center of the hall, looked up at Dongfang Yinqi, and smiled slightly, "It's not unreasonable for His Majesty to be so enthusiastic about recommending Xiangguo before he finished speaking." Too impatient."

Dongfang Yinqi looked over with a smile that was not a smile: "Oh? Then the assistant minister would tell me who the so-called candidate is in His Majesty's mouth?"

Standing behind Shangguan Chen, Shangguan Luo kindly reminded: "My lord, be careful with your words."

After giving Shangguan Luo a reassuring look, Shangguan Chen didn't change his face: "A woman who is worthy of His Majesty is naturally a dignified, self-restraining, graceful woman. Of course, this family background must be justified."

The more Shangguan Chen said, the more enigmatic Dongfang Yinqi's gaze became: "So, what the auxiliary minister said is..."

"The Su family in the south of the Yangtze River has many generations of officials, and their family education is strict." As soon as these few words came out, the court suddenly became quieter.There was a smile on Shangguan Chen's lips, and he was confident in his heart, "Su Ruqing, the daughter of the Su family, is the perfect candidate for the queen."

A talented girl from the south of the Yangtze River, Su Ruqing, who doesn't know this name?

This kind of talent, such a status, is worthy of His Majesty.

"Su Ruqing?" Dongfang Yinqi narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly, looking at Mo Lian with a searching look, "Is Su Ruqing the candidate in His Majesty's mind?"

The eyes that originally fell on Shangguan Chen's body were retracted in an instant, and Mo Lian looked at Shang Dongfang Yinqi's probing eyes with an extremely calm expression: "Exactly."

Dongfang Yinqi looked at the person on the dragon chair, and after a long while, he suddenly smiled.That smile was too complicated, and Shangguan Chen couldn't discern the true meaning in it: "The eldest daughter of the prefect of Su, the most talented woman in the south of the Yangtze River, Your Majesty chose this person well."

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to react in an instant, and they all echoed in unison.

"Xiangguo said so."

"Your Majesty has chosen well."

"Since that's the case, there will be a happy event in the Great Yuan Kingdom soon."

"Wow, wow, it's a great blessing for Dayuan Nation to have such a queen!"

"Since the candidate for the queen has been decided, the rest of the show girls..."

"We'll talk about the rest of the show girls later." Mo Lian said blankly, obviously not wanting to discuss this topic again.

"But, Your Majesty..."

"Retire." Mo Lian got up and left, leaving a group of courtiers looking at each other.

His Majesty left, and the ministers left the hall one after another.

Shangguan Chen walked out alone, followed by the sound of footsteps not far behind.The footsteps were neither high nor low, but very steady.

After leaving the main hall, Shangguanchen deliberately stopped and looked into the distance while leaning on the pillars.

The footsteps behind him gradually approached, approaching.

The sound of footsteps stopped not far behind. Although the person behind did not speak, Shangguan Chen felt that the person's gaze fell heavily on him.

Not long after, Shangguan Chen felt uncomfortable from being watched.He took a step to leave, but the person standing behind finally said, "Master Shangguan's move today is really clever to catch him unprepared."

Shangguan Chen turned back with a smile: "Xiangguo is pressing His Majesty every step of the way on the main hall today, isn't it good?"

Dongfang Yinqi spread his hands indifferently, the smile between his brows was still there, and he seemed to be in a good mood: "It's okay, Lord Shangguan can do whatever he can."

He moved closer to Shangguan Chen, and Shangguan Chen retreated instinctively.When his back hit the pillar, he realized that there was no way to retreat now, so he had to cling to the pillar.

Taking a quick look around, the ministers were almost gone.The entrance of the main hall was very quiet, not even a guard on duty.

No one was there, trouble.

Catching the slight change in Shangguan Chen's expression, Dongfang Yin took another step forward with a smile on his lips. Shangguan Chen's entire back was stiff, and he leaned against the pillar without moving.

Dongfang Yinqi was much taller than Shangguan Chen, and now the two were very close together, and the tip of Dongfang Yinqi's nose happened to touch Shangguan Chen's forehead.

Touch, ice and cool.

Shangguan Chen suddenly turned his head away, his voice was low but full of anger: "Xiangguo, please respect yourself."

Dongfang Yinqi stretched out his hand, and rubbed the tip of his nose thoughtfully, with a playful look in his eyes: "I just saw the expression of Lord Shangguan, who seemed to enjoy it, why did he change his face so quickly?"

"Xiangguo, don't talk nonsense!" Shangguan Chen glared at Dongfang Yinqi angrily, "Xiangguo and I are neither enemies nor friends, and Xiangguo has provoked us many times for no reason. I don't know what his intentions are?"

"What's the intention?" Dongfang Yinqi lowered his head and looked directly into Shangguan Chen's eyes, his gaze was like a torch.He pinched Shangguan Chen's chin with one hand and lowered his voice, "Don't think I don't know about Young Master Qian and the matter of you sending people to Jiangnan."

Shangguan Chen was stunned for a moment, but his heart sank.

"The sudden illness you suffered last time was just a small lesson for you. If Mr. Shangguan does these thankless things in the future, then..." Dongfang Yinqi's tone paused, and a cold look appeared in his eyes. "I will never be soft-hearted again."

The tall figure finally moved away, Shangguanchen held his chest and took a deep breath, only then did he realize that his palms were already wet.

Looking at the back of Dongfang Yinqi going away, Shangguanchen couldn't help being startled.It turned out that he knew everything he had deployed, since he knew it, why did he not ask about it?

He said just now that he would not be lenient again, so this time, is he being lenient?

Being soft on political opponents, he...why?
