Don't help me, I can sit up by myself

Chapter 167: Cheating the Emperor’s Feelings

Perhaps the emperor came to see me. "Tian Lingyue adjusted her hair on her temples, took the opportunity to pick a hibiscus flower from the flowers and put it on her temples.

"Your Majesty, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't know that the Emperor was coming suddenly. I missed your welcome. Please forgive me." Tian Lingyue said while holding up the scripture she copied: "Your Majesty, I have been in peace and quiet recently. I copied the scriptures quietly, one to pray for Chen Guo, and the other to pray for the Queen Mother. I thought I couldn't send it out, but I didn't expect that Your Majesty is here, and it happened to be presented to the Emperor. Do you think I copied it carefully? "

Tian Lingyue walked forward on her knees holding the scriptures. The hibiscus flowers on her temples were tender and bright, making her skin delicate.

Tian Lingyue's voice was gentle and cautious, and cautious and joyful.

Meng Yuzhu snorted coldly.

The pig teammates who were usually ignored all the time changed so quickly once the emperor came, as if she had revealed her true colors. Just now, they were scolding the concubines and scolding the emperor. Now, has she successfully curry favor with him?

Gao Rang was also puzzled.

It was obvious that these two women were still plotting something big, and everything sounded like a brain drain. In an instant, Tian Guiren changed into a docile and pleasant appearance, as soft and gentle as possible, and that voice could... After squeezing out the water, she looked into the emperor's eyes. Those sultry eyes were so affectionate, even more affectionate than the queen mother looking at the emperor.

It seems that being the emperor is not easy.

Many of the women in the harem are masters of acting.

One second she was still a resentful woman, and the next second she became a beauty.

I don’t know how many people are trying to trick the emperor.

The emperor is only in his twenties, how can he cope with walking among flowers?

Being an emperor is too tiring.

Gao Rang secretly glanced at the emperor's face.

The emperor remained calm.

Gao Rang understood the emperor's expression very well.

The general idea is that I will just watch your performance quietly, and I don’t want to talk.

Sometimes when the ministers were talking nonsense and giving random ideas in the court, the emperor would sit on the high dragon chair and watch quietly without speaking.

"Your Majesty, you must be tired after walking all this way. Mangkhut, didn't you go to Wanru Hall to buy some food? Why don't you bring it to the Emperor for a taste?"

Mangosteen dared not move.

"Sangzhu -" Tian Lingyue spoke a little louder. She thought that Shanzhu was frightened when he suddenly saw the emperor. Unexpectedly, Shanzhu turned around and knelt at the emperor's feet and started crying again: "Your Majesty, this slave is not young anymore this year. Wait. In two years, I will be able to leave the palace. I still have my mother at home. Please forgive me and don’t kill me."

Tian Lingyue's face turned pale.

Meng Yuzhu also became nervous. During dance practice that day, she put on thick rouge and drank two more glasses, which made her face even redder.

Meng Yuzhu gently tugged on Tian Lingyue's sleeve.

Tian Lingyue was in a state of confusion. She didn't understand why Shangghu said these things, but the sudden arrival of the emperor didn't seem to be a good thing. At that moment, she just wanted to cover up the matter of drugging, so she scolded Shangghu and said, "You have been talking to me recently." The illness is serious, and our Changle Palace is short of clothes and medicine, so now you are talking nonsense, what if you scare the emperor, why don't you retreat."

Mangkhut's legs seemed to be filled with lead and he couldn't move.

The emperor remained calm: "Tian Guiren asked Shangghu to serve the meal just now. Why did he say that she is seriously ill?"

"Your Majesty, my concubine..."

"Master, just admit it. Your Majesty already knows that you asked your servant to give His Highness Wanru the medicine, and the imperial doctor has also tested it. Master, please stop hiding it... The crime of deceiving the emperor is a capital crime. Master He told me to take the medicine, and the abortion medicine that the imperial concubine gave me cannot be deceived."

The scripture in Tian Lingyue's hand fell to the ground.

Meng Yuzhu had seen a lot of big scenes, but the battle on that day also made her feel scared.

"Confused slave, do you think that Master Wanru's life is good now, so you want to change your master? I don't know who ordered you to slander us. You slave is really audacious."

"I don't….."

"I am neither blind nor deaf." The emperor lowered his eyes in disgust.

These women.

If you plot against his money, you can still forgive it. He is the emperor and he has money.

But there are some people who plot against his feelings, saying how much they love him, but behind the scenes they do shady things. Do they think he is an emperor who is easy to deceive?

"Tian Guiren, I still remember that when you entered the palace, you lived with Du in the Yongfu Palace. The pear blossoms fell early that year. You were copying scriptures under the window, and Du was grinding them for you. The layers of pear blossoms reflected the window, and the text You are so quiet and charming, and there has never been a woman as quiet and graceful as you in the palace. But later on, you changed too much."

"Your Majesty..." Seeing that the matter could not be hidden, Tian Lingyue thought of eight hundred ideas in his mind: "Your Majesty, since you imprisoned the imperial concubine in Changle Palace, the imperial concubine has been quite resentful, and the life of the concubine has been very difficult. "

"You deserved some punishment for what you did back then. I'm still thinking that if one day you change..."

"Your Majesty, I live under the same roof as the imperial concubine, and I am under her control in every aspect. I can't help myself. When the imperial concubine heard that Sister Du was pregnant, she was very angry, so she took out the abortion medicine she had secretly hidden, Force Shanzhu to get into Sister Du's soup pot. When I lived with Sister Du in the Yongfu Palace, after all, I had feelings for each other, and I couldn't do it no matter what."

Sister Du.

Ha ha.

It's so affectionate.

If she hadn't called her Sister Du, the emperor might still be able to listen to her nonsense.

The emperor was a little acclimated to Sister Du's long voice and short voice.

"Stop calling her Sister Du."

"Why, Your Majesty."

"You weren't worthy in the first place." The emperor said coldly.

Tian Lingyue's tears fell on the scriptures, which she copied stroke by stroke. She once used the scriptures to win the favor of the Queen Mother, but now, the scriptures she copied fell into the dust. The emperor didn't even look at it.

"Your Majesty, I am unjustly accused. I only have the Emperor in my heart. All this was really instigated by the imperial concubine." Tian Lingyue cried like the rain on the pear blossoms in Yongfu Palace that year. It could not stop for a moment. live.

Meng Yuzhu had a cold face.

If she had been in her prime, Tian Lingyue would have had two mouths. She didn't participate in any of these things. In front of the emperor, she made her own choice.

But this time, Meng Yuzhu just looked at the emperor quietly: "Your Majesty, tell me how to deal with it. At worst, we will be sent to the cold palace. Anyway, this is no different from the cold palace. Anyway, we wanted to harm Du's child, and she took it away. My favor, she is not worthy of children.”

The emperor stood up and looked up at the sky in the four corners. There were little beasts on the ridge of the roof. Although they were dusty, they were still cute.

Some people are destined to leave.

Some people are destined to be unable to change.

The red-lacquered door of Changle Palace closed heavily.

The emperor stood on the steps with his back to the palace gate and remained silent for a long time. From that day on, everyone in Changle Palace could only go in and out. They only had food and clothing provided by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and nothing else.

Before the emperor had gone far, everyone in Changle Palace was already shouting.

Tian Lingyue: "Your Majesty, I really know that I was wrong. Please forgive me. I will never dare to do it again. In the future, I will only copy the scriptures well, and I will never dare to do it again, Your Majesty."

Meng Yuzhu tied up her costume and spoke teasingly: "Tian Guiren changed his face several times in a while. Not to mention the emperor, even I don't recognize you. When you plot against others, you always take the lead. You are willing to take the lead." As a military advisor, if something happens, you should choose yourself first, that’s great.”

Tian Lingyue didn't dare to confront Meng Yuzhu, so she took advantage of Mangosteen to vent her anger.

"I just asked you to take a medicine, but you actually made it known to everyone. I have taught you for so long in vain, and you have failed more than succeeded."

"If something happens, you must first confess to the master. Such a slave should be beaten to death."

Mangosteen was lying on the ground crying hard.

Since she served Tian Lingyue, although she is not rich and powerful, she has also become better and better. Who knows that she will go back more and more now.

Hearing that she was going to be beaten to death, Shangghu cried even more fiercely: "Master, I know I was wrong. Please ask your master to forgive me. I have a mother at home. In two years, when I leave the palace, there will be a cousin." Brother is waiting for the slave, if the slave dies, then my cousin will have no wife."

Tian Lingyue sneered and pushed Shanzhu away: "You still have the illusion of leaving the palace to get married. People in Changle Palace can only enter and not leave. If you want to leave the palace, you will have to wait until the day you die. From today on, you don't have to stay in the palace." I’m waiting by your side.”

"Where will the servant go to serve you?"

"Gongfang still needs people. You can go to Gongfang and rinse the toilet."

After hearing this, Mangkhut fainted.

Taihe Palace.

There is a cool breeze in the evening.

It was a little hot in the empty hall.

The emperor was wearing a white robe, his hair was pulled loosely, and he had a bright silver crown. He stood outside the palace with his hands tied and said nothing.

The main hall is majestic.

There are overlapping palaces nearby, and the long corridor is quiet and deep.

Holding on to the railing and looking into the distance, there are mountains and mountains, and the moat is surging westward and never coming back.

The moat goes west, then west, through mountains and rivers, and after more than a dozen cities, it is Beiding City.

Ever since he received the discount from Beiding City, the Emperor has been almost at a loss for money.

The fold was handed over by the King of Yue.

The war in the northwest was tense before, and the nomadic tribes colluded with Yelang to invade, and the imperial court had already paid a large sum of military pay.

He also reprimanded the officials in the imperial court who advocated for peace or peace talks. Now everyone inside and outside the imperial court is united to fight against the outside world. Unexpectedly, the message handed over by the King of Yue said that he was sick, and he was seriously ill, and he could not even get up from his bed for a while. When he came, he brought with him the diagnosis from the military doctor.

The Emperor had already asked Imperial Physician Zhang to review the diagnosis, and the prescription prescribed by the military doctor was considered appropriate. Even if the Imperial Physician from the Imperial Hospital was asked to prescribe the prescription, the medicines used and the treatment methods would be similar.

It was written on the list that the King of Tianyue had been leading his troops to fight with Yelang's soldiers a few days ago. When he was hungry, he just ate some food. For some reason, he started to vomit and have diarrhea. He could get up five or six times a night. Not only did he not feel better after taking medicine, , but became heavier. Gradually, he could not get up, let alone put on his armor and climb on his horse. In just two or three days, the King of Yue lost weight and could no longer lift his hands. He was groggy most of the day. of.

The enemy is facing a formidable enemy, the coach is ill, and there are no signs of improvement. This is a major event that disrupts the morale of the army.

If Yelang and the nomadic tribe knew about this, Beiding would be in danger. Not only are the people of Beiding unable to escape the war, but once these people succeed in Beiding, they will definitely attack southeast along the way. It will not take more than half a month to reach the capital of Chen Kingdom.

The discount is extremely urgent.

Except for a few military ministers, no one else knew.

The Minister of War was anxious.

"The current military affairs are urgent, and only the King of Yue can take charge of it. Although he has two generals, Zhao Boji and Cui Zhen, they are immature and have never experienced such a big battle. This battle can only be won but not lost. Once If we lose, Chen Guo will be in danger, Your Majesty."

"Yes, Your Majesty, not to mention that the Emperor has never been willing to talk about the marriage, and our Ministry of War does not approve of the marriage. Even if we go to the marriage now, both of them will see the clues, and they will not be able to turn the tide. The King of Yue is suffering from this disease. He was seriously ill. There is no such thing as an airtight wall. The nomadic tribes and the Yelang people were cunning. They couldn't see the King of Yue leading his troops. It was easy to guess the reason. In a few days, the city of Beiding would not be safe. Your Majesty, this is no small matter.”

nonsense.

The emperor asked several important ministers from the Ministry of War to come. He wanted to listen to their opinions, but unexpectedly, they all came to clear up the chaos.

Over the years, the King of Yue has been running the frontier fortress, and his prestige in the frontier is greater than that of the emperor.

The balance between the tribes and Yelang's surrender may be inseparable from the intimidation of the Yue King.

Even during the Chinese New Year, the people of Chen State prayed for blessings and prayed to God to protect the king of Yue from longevity and invincibility. As for whether he, the emperor, can survive, the people don't care.

Now the king of Yue is ill at the wrong time, and the future events have not yet been decided.

Beiding City is in danger.

"If not, tomorrow morning at court, all civil and military officials will discuss it together. After all, there is strength in numbers. If we all come up with ideas together, we may be able to come up with good ideas."

"What good ideas can you come up with? I was scolded by the emperor for coming up with the idea of ​​marriage a few days ago. Let those literati come up with ideas. Besides jumping on the table and pointing at the tribe and the Yelang people's noses, they can also What are you doing? When you get to the battlefield, you can't even climb up the horse. In my opinion, this matter cannot be brought to the court."

Of course you can't tell it to the court.

The emperor is not a fool.

There are all kinds of officials in the court, and who knows if there are any traitors.

The fact that the King of Yue was sick had already shaken the morale of the army. If he shouted something in the court, wouldn't it sound like a loudspeaker and the entire Chen Kingdom would know about it? By then, not only will the morale of the military be unstable, but also the hearts of the people may be unstable, and the family will be broken up.

The emperor rubbed his brows.

When these ministers usually come up with bad ideas, they come up with one idea after another without repeating the same thing.

Now let them think of ideas. It took two cups of tea and they couldn't even hold back a serious word, let alone an idea.

"Your Majesty, this matter should not be delayed. Your Majesty must come up with a solution as soon as possible."

"I know."

"Does your Majesty have any good ideas?"

"I'll think about it again."

"Your Majesty, time waits for no one. The King of Yue is like fire and water in Beiding. If not, let the Taiyuan Hospital send a few imperial doctors to Beiding to diagnose and treat the King of Yue. Maybe the doctors from the Taiyuan Hospital will go and the King of Yue will be fine. It’s over.”

"Sending the imperial physician there would be too eye-catching and could easily be exposed without telling anyone. The imperial physician might be killed along the way. There is chaos over there now. Besides, the imperial physician has also read the prescriptions given by the military doctor and they are all suitable. "
