old queen

Chapter 49

"Brother Huang, that person is the court lady that the sister-in-law gave to my younger brother." Long Yu said softly, taking a deep breath, barely suppressing the slightly roiling anger in his heart.

"Really? She really gave you a court lady?" Looking up at him, Long Che asked in surprise.

I'm afraid this is the main point of his asking him to come here for questioning today, right?Look, when he asked this sentence, his eyes flickered a few times, and the muscles on his face contracted slightly. This is an expression of tension!Long Yu nodded, and said: "Yes! Sister-in-law Huang thinks that it's not good for my younger brother to go in and out of the palace alone every day, so I specially gave her to my younger brother, so that I will take her with me whenever I come and go. , it is more gratifying to be in pairs like this. Moreover, every time I see her, the king can think of her grace and remember her kindness. And the order of the emperor's wife, I dare not neglect, so I went to Seeing Wushuang, I brought her there too." Opening his mouth, he said the words that the two of them had set up verbatim.

Long Che frowned. "Is there such a thing?"

"Yes." Long Yu nodded heavily, "This person is a sweeping maid in the emperor's wife's bedroom. At that time, we were talking in the cold palace, and she happened to pass by, and the emperor's wife caught her here, and then I gave it to my younger brother. Now, she is outside the palace, do you want to see him?" Then he stretched out his hand, intending to order someone to summon the person waiting outside for Long Che to have a look at.

"No need." Long Che shook his head, not interested in that person.However, ever since he found out about this, a cloud of suspicion has shrouded his mind, and he looked at Long Yu in confusion, "I'm just curious, for a person like you, who refuses to listen to even the words of the queen mother, how can you be so innocent this time?" Will you let her dictate?"

"No way, my younger brother recently discovered that the food cooked by the emperor's sister-in-law is delicious, and my younger brother is addicted to eating, so I go to eat at noon almost every day. As for the emperor's sister-in-law, she sees that my younger brother eats and drinks for nothing every day. I thought of this method to torture my younger brother. You should know that my younger brother hates being surrounded by women the most." Spreading his hands again, Long Yu felt very helpless.There is really no way, he has money, leisure and power. People say that he is full of warmth and thinks about sex, but he just has no interest in women.Therefore, it was not easy for someone to arouse his interest, of course he would not let it go so easily.

Seeing him like this, a faint smile appeared in Long Che's eyes strangely.However, this smile didn't last long, he lowered his head and gave a fake cough, then raised his head again, with a plain face and indifferent eyes, and said solemnly: "Sixth Emperor, the Queen Mother asked me to tell you, don't do it again in the future." I went to the Leng Palace. She is the queen, you are the prince, and you are sister-in-law. Your identities are different, so you should not be too close. So in the future, you'd better not go to the Leng Palace, even if Rui'er and Jiu'er are here. Recently, you have frequently been in and out of the cold palace, and you have been discovered by many people, and gossip has already started to spread in the palace."

Have it?Why hasn't he heard it?Long Yu shrugged. "That's it!" Nodded, "Well, I won't go to Lenggong to visit the emperor's wife in the future." Anyway, he and Mu Mingchun had already reached an agreement, even if he didn't report to her, he wouldn't worry about not having good food eat.

How refreshing!He was so refreshed that he couldn't believe it was true.However, even though he had doubts in his heart, Long Che still kept a cold face and nodded coolly: "Well, it's good that you understand."

I understand, how can I not understand?It's just that, as a younger brother, he seems to be a little confused about his elder brother's thoughts.Why did he always feel that Long Che's behavior became more and more strange the further he went on?But where is the specific strangeness, he can't tell.

By the way, I also remembered something very important at first sight!Long Yu raised his head, looked at Long Che, and asked cautiously: "Then, Brother Huang, the palace lady that the sister-in-law gave to my younger brother..."

"If you like it, then stay with me!" Long Che said generously, shaking his hands.Typically, a stick is given to a candy to eat.It's just that he found out after a long time that the stick he hit was too light, and the candy was too big and too sweet.

"Okay!" After getting the permission, he was ecstatic in his heart, but he still put on a resentful look on his face.

When Long Che saw it, his mood after being tormented by the memorial for most of the day suddenly improved!
After being silent for a while, Long Yu remembered another very important matter, and said again: "By the way, Brother Huang."

Long Che looked up. "What else is there?"

"I suddenly want to meet the second prince of Yinyu Kingdom, and want to make friends with him." Long Yu said.

His eyes suddenly became darker.Putting down the memorial in his hand and standing up, Long Che asked in a deep voice, "What the hell are you thinking about?"

"It's just to make friends!" Long Yu said with a brisk tone, with a carefree smile, "Isn't the border stable, the military temporarily absent, and my ministers bored? Seeing that the second prince of Yinyu Kingdom has an extraordinary appearance and looks like a banished fairy, I thought of making friends with him. Besides, I have been a hostage in the Phoenix Dynasty for many years, and I have kept him in his mansion all year round. It will be boring after a long time He fell ill. At that time, the news spread to Otoyu Kingdom, and the royal family there blamed him, isn’t that our fault?”

Only ghosts believe his words! "It's boring, isn't it?" Long Che sneered, and pointed at the mountain of memorials in front of him, "You can take half of the memorials here to read." Guaranteed that you will never dare to call yourself boring again.

"Isn't it, Brother Huang?" Seeing him like this, Long Yu stared in shock, this time he was really frightened.Glancing at these high piles of memorials, I couldn't help but think of the tragic situation of myself looking through the military memorials in the palace for a few days. Long Yu cried out miserably, "It's miserable enough for me to lose money and be entangled by women. , why do you still want to get involved in the end?"

"How? Answer or not?" Anyway, insisting on this step, Long Che asked again, and the smile in his eyes became more and more obvious.

Why are these couples like this?Once you have made a decision in your heart, you will never repent, and you have to force others to agree.And this other person is always caught by them and cannot be opposed.

"Are you allowing my younger brother to make friends with him as long as my younger brother agrees to read the memorial for you?" Long Yu asked softly, pursing his lips.

"As long as you don't cause any major incidents involving human life, you can do whatever you want." Long Che said, that means he agreed.

Well, up to now, he can only succumb to the facts. "But brother emperor, can you give me less of this memorial? I don't read enough memorials, so I'm not as proficient as you." Pursing his lips again, Long Yu suggested in a low voice.

"Well, I'll subtract [-]% from you."

"It's only [-]%!" Long Yu whispered.His original plan was to propose a reduction of at least half!

The cold eyes shot at him, and Long Che's cold voice came immediately: "Otherwise, not less?"

how is this possible! "Okay, what you get is what you get." It's a little bit less, and I can only comfort myself like this.Long Yu lowered his head, and said vaguely and unwillingly, "Thank you, Brother Huang!"

Sister-in-law Huang, look at my brother, I have paid so much for you, you must repay me well when the time comes!I want to eat Buddha jumps over the wall Buddha jumps over the wall!

One: Teenage Heartbeat

On a certain day in a certain month of a certain year, in a certain cold winter, outside the Imperial Study Room.

The heavy snow fell all day and night, and finally stopped this morning.Inside and outside the imperial palace, a thick layer of pure white snowflakes has accumulated, and everywhere is covered in silver, which is too beautiful to behold.

As the saying goes, following the snow heralds a good year.These years, it is rare to see such a heavy snowfall. The Holy One was overjoyed, and yesterday he sent an order, ordering people not to remove the snow, let it melt naturally.Therefore, no matter where in the palace, as far as the eye can see, it is a piece of silver and white, magnificent and shocking.

creak- creak-

Accompanied by the sound of uneven footsteps, dozens of boys wearing luxurious cloaks of various colors, led by five or six eunuchs, walked slowly along the corridor in a row like a string of zongzi.The one walking in the front of the group was a boy with handsome facial features.He was about 12 years old, with a calm demeanor, a slightly taut face, and a hint of tension in his dark eyes.

Behind him, a dozen or so boys younger than him walked all the way, talking in low voices all the way:

"Hey, it's time for the emperor to ask questions again, I'm so scared."

"I'm afraid too! Father is so strict, every time I meet his eyes, my mind goes blank and I can't think of anything."

"It's the same for me. I can memorize books that I can memorize fluently, but if I can memorize them stutteringly, it's already good enough!"

"Yes, yes! Every month, I am most afraid of this day. But, time flies so fast, and it will arrive in a blink of an eye."

"Actually speaking, we're not bad. Brother Da Huang is the most pitiful. Every time we meet Emperor Father, for us, Father just clicks on an article at random and asks us to recite it. Only For Brother Dahuang, that is strict. Not only must he memorize at least five articles at a time, but he is also not allowed to memorize mistakes. If he accidentally misses even one word, he will definitely be scolded. It looked terribly frightening."

"Yeah yeah!"

The last words were agreed by all.All the boys behind turned their pitiful eyes on the boy in the front, looked at his straight back, and sighed together.

Walking in the forefront, listening to the conversations of the younger brothers verbatim, the boy's handsome face became tighter and tighter, his thin lips were also tightly pursed, and there was not much emotion in the dark eyes .

creak- creak-

On the opposite side, at the other end of the corridor, came another group of people.Walking in the middle of the crowd was a little girl in a fox fur cape.From the looks of it, she was only seven or eight years old, but her appearance was already extremely beautiful. It was conceivable that when she grew up, she would definitely be a great beauty.

Seeing them, the group stepped aside, respected Fushen, and said in a low voice: "I have seen you princes."
