Rebirth: The Gatekeeper

"Yo, I just came here yesterday, why are you here again today? Could it be that you didn't enjoy playing chess yesterday?" The emperor didn't seem to see the angry look on Feng Xitang's face, and he played with the chess pieces with a smile on his face.

"Yesterday you clearly lost, why did you still issue a decree to grant a marriage today?" Feng Xitang said, "pa—" and threw the imperial decree in front of the emperor, who didn't open it, just threw it aside, "yesterday , I lost, and I am willing to gamble and admit defeat, but, maybe Yi Ning remembered wrongly, I did not promise not to marry Tang Jin and Zheng Wenyu!"

When Feng Xichen heard this, he immediately recalled yesterday's bet.

At that time, he had already learned that the emperor wanted to marry Bei Tang Jin and Zheng Wenyu, and when he asked the emperor, he also admitted it, so they made a bet that if Bei Tang Jin played the tune according to the emperor's proposal, then the emperor would If she wins, Feng Xizhen must give up her pursuit of Bei Tangjin; if Bei Tangjin doesn't play the tune in the end, then the emperor will no longer match Zheng Wenyu and Bei Tangjin's marriage.

When the two made this bet, they both had their own thoughts. In fact, both of them understood that in this bet, both parties could take a step back and take a step closer.

If Feng Xitang loses the bet, he won't be able to pursue Bei Tangjin, but he can come to propose marriage!If the emperor loses, he doesn't have to come forward to match Bei Tang Jin and Zheng Wenyu, but he can continue to order a marriage!

Both of them understand the trickiness of this. Besides, if Feng Xitang directly bets that the emperor will not marry him, the other party will definitely not make this bet with him, and if the emperor wants Feng Xitang not to marry Bei Tang Jin, Feng Xitang I don't know how to bet, so this bet is just a step back.

Feng Xitang lost, as far as the emperor was concerned, at least he would not be able to see Bei Tang Jin again, which would give him a three-point chance of winning the next game with Feng Xitang, and if Feng Xitang won, If the emperor does not match Zheng Wenyu and Bei Tangjin, then the chances of the two meeting each other will be less, which is also beneficial to him.

Therefore, for the two of them, whether the emperor bestows the marriage first or Feng Xitang proposes the marriage first determines Bei Tang Jin's final destination, so today's emperor's decree to bestow the marriage is actually not a breach of contract, naturally Feng Xitang knows in her heart, However, he didn't expect that the other party would make an order the next day, which is too despicable!He still needs to make some preparations to propose a marriage. The emperor makes an order and sends someone to deliver the order!Fortunately, he was well-informed, and when he learned that the emperor was going to deliver the decree, he intercepted the person who delivered the decree. Otherwise, wouldn't his sweetheart marry someone else?

"Okay, Yi Ning, don't be angry anymore. There are many women in the world, and Bei Tang Jin is not the only one. It is a good thing that she married Zheng Wenyu." Seeing the anger on Feng Xitang's face, the emperor felt happy I have to be comforted.

"What a good thing? It's a good thing for the woman you admire to marry someone else? What the hell are you thinking! After all, Bei Tang Jin belongs to me, and I must marry her back to Ming Palace!" Feng Xichen gritted his teeth angrily. It was the first time seeing him lose his composure, and he couldn't help laughing: "I didn't stop you from marrying Bei Tang Jin, you can come to propose marriage!" The emperor smiled again, and said: "Yi Ning, no matter what, you have to first Let my people go, and you imprison Eunuch Gao, who will serve me?"

Feng Xitang smiled strangely on Yongya's face, and said: "I have already killed the person."

"What did you say? Killed? That's..." The emperor was about to say that he was an official of the court, but after thinking about it, Eunuch Gao was just a eunuch, and immediately changed the words to, "It's a human life, not to mention, he is mine. Palm seal eunuch, if you kill him, won't you be impeached by the courtiers?"

"Yi Ning, you have gone too far!" The emperor stopped smiling, and his face became even more ugly. It seems that he really worshiped Feng Xichong, and he killed his people without saying a word. , It's too presumptuous!

This time it was Feng Xichen's turn to smile. He sat opposite the emperor, poured himself a cup of hot tea, and watched the emperor's face as dark as a dark cloud. So to speak.

The emperor suddenly felt something was wrong, there was no need for Feng Xitang to do such a thing, the gain outweighed the loss!

"Yi Ning, you were the one who lied to me just now!" The emperor stared at Feng Xitang all of a sudden.

Feng Xitang smiled lazily, and said: "Whether it's true or not, you'll know tomorrow. At this time, I'm going to visit the imperial grandmother. I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you very much."

After he finished speaking, he did not salute the emperor, but left very gracefully and unrestrainedly.

The emperor stared at Feng Xitang's back, with his beard puffed up, and said cruelly in his heart: You're still betraying me!Isn't this intentionally torturing people!

But soon, the emperor laughed again.

He thought proudly: Yi Ning, Yi Ning, do you want to ask for an order from the queen mother?It's a pity, it's a waste of money if you go!

Familiar with sandalwood, when the old mother opened the bead curtain for Feng Xitang, he saw the maid serving the queen mother smoking a pipe, Feng Xitang took two quick steps, and said with a smile: "Grandson pays respects to the emperor's grandmother."

The Queen Mother rolled her eyes, "Didn't you miss me, old woman, when you came here today?"

With a flattering smile on his face, Feng Xitang took the cigarette pouch from the hand of the palace maid and filled it with shredded tobacco. His technique was extremely skillful, as if he often did such things.

"Grandmother, what are you talking about? My grandson is here today, I really miss you." After packing the shredded tobacco and lighting the fireworks, Feng Xitang served the queen mother very respectfully.

The queen mother took a deep breath, smiled and shook her head, "Stop talking nonsense, what are you talking about, Ai's family hasn't taken a nap yet!"

When Feng Xichen heard this, he felt something was wrong, the Queen Mother rarely drove him away, it was an order to evict him.

However, he was not willing to let go of the opportunity, he still smiled flatteringly, and squeezed the empress dowager's shoulders softly, "Grandmother, most recently a new opera troupe has arrived, and the opera singing is really good. The lady of the mansion celebrates her birthday, please come over, she is full of praise!"

When the Queen Mother heard about the troupe, her eyes lit up, she turned her head to look at Feng Xitang, and asked, "A new troupe? What new play are you singing?"

Feng Xitang smiled mysteriously, as the emperor's grandmother, she loved two things the most, one was the cigarette pouch, and the other was listening to operas!That's a theater buff!

"When my grandson invites you tomorrow, I'll keep you applauded!" Feng Xitang smiled very cutely, her handsome face was a little more cute and flattering, the queen mother saw it, she liked him even more, she patted his hand and said, "Yeah , or my grandson knows how to honor the emperor's grandmother."

Seeing the happy look of the queen mother, Feng Xizhen knew that the matter was half done, and then took out a snuff bottle from her bosom, shaking it under the eyes of the queen mother, "Grandmother, look, grandson always wants to I'm looking at you!"
