Long live Emperor Wu!

Chapter 82 He feels that he is finished

His answer was obviously within the emperor's expectation. The emperor leaned forward slightly, lowered his voice, frowned, and said with some heartache:

"Your eldest brother is so sorry for Xiaojiu!... I can't bear to let him spend the rest of his life as a common man in the barren land of Qianzhou! Wait a few years, or wait for my death, because I will die It's pitiful that he will be willful again. He will be transferred back to Chang'an and restored to his status as a prince to assist you.

You brothers have a deep relationship, and he will definitely not seek your power or endanger the stability of the Tang Dynasty. If you brothers just change positions, then my hard work has not been in vain, right? "

After the emperor lowered his voice, he looked at Li Shan with a pair of eyes looking forward to recognition.

Li Shan opened his mouth slightly and looked at the emperor in surprise, especially when the emperor said that because of his pity that he was about to die, he would be willful again...

In other words, his father, this emperor... this Ming Jun Holy Lord has such an "unformed" spirit in him.

Li Shan glanced to the side and saw that Wu Rou was also shocked. She secretly squinted her eyes and looked in the direction of the emperor.

The emperor followed the gaze of Prince Li Shan, and Wu Rou quickly looked away, pretending not to hear anything.He collected another copy of the memorial that was left to dry the ink and put it away.

"What do you always see her doing?" the emperor asked dissatisfiedly, "If she dares to speak out, I will kill her."

When Wu Rou heard this, her hands trembled and she felt a little cold on the back of her neck.

When Li Shan heard this, his eyes flashed for a moment and he replied seriously:
"It would be great if we could really recruit eldest brother back, but I'm just afraid...I'm afraid that the courtiers won't agree."

The emperor was very confident in his method and said with a "scoff":
"I have worked hard all my life. If I don't have this friendship when I die, wouldn't my life have been in vain?! Don't worry, your eldest brother has a reputation for governing politics for many years, but later on …”

The emperor paused here, as if he couldn't even bear to talk, so he changed the subject and said:

"Anyway, the courtiers all understand...it depends on how you find reasons to operate."

……

……

In May, the emperor left Chang'an on his own expedition, leaving the prince to supervise the country.

At that time, Wu Rou thought that she was going to follow him as a palace maid.

It was a long journey when I went there. If I were with the emperor and rode in the same car day and night, maybe I would be favored and have a son and a half daughter.

Although in her heart, the emperor gave her more of a feeling of majesty and fear, and she was not very willing to have physical contact.

And I don’t know why, when I think about this kind of thing recently, I can’t help but think of Prince Li Shan’s face.

Arthur was right. She had liked Li Shan very much in the past. Although she didn't have any inappropriate thoughts at that time, she just thought of him as a younger brother who, whether it was his appearance or his voice, really touched her heart.

But seeing such a younger brother who was taller than her, and whose appearance and voice irritated her even more, she really couldn't control her mind and kept thinking wildly.

It was obviously someone she would never meet in her life.

Wu Rou swallowed down the sadness in her heart that she couldn't get what she wanted, and devoted herself to this psychological construction, planning how to find opportunities to seduce the emperor on the road in the future, recommend herself to the emperor, and then give birth to a younger brother Li Shan.

She broke the jar and broke the pot, and she had the courage to look forward to death.

As a result, the emperor left without the maid, only Concubine Xu Hui...

What did he tell Concubine Wei at that time, oh...it is not suitable to be a burden when marching and fighting. Xu Hui is young, and she can take care of her daily life on the road.

Wu Rou suddenly let out a long sigh of depression in her heart:
The emperor said at the beginning that he would not wrong himself at all when it came to women.Seriously, people he doesn't like can't even get close to his bedside.

The defense was really tight, leaving no chance for her!
"Why are you sighing?" Li Shan, who was reading the memorial, suddenly asked.He did not raise his head, still staring at the memorial on the desk. His calm profile was gentle and tolerant, and his voice was soft.

The emperor conducts military campaigns in person, and the prince oversees government affairs.

The large pile of memorials that the emperor once saw were all handed over to the prince.

The position of Wu Rou, the female official serving Mo, was originally to assist the emperor in reviewing memorials in Wude Hall.

Now she is still doing the same job, but her partner has been changed to the prince.

"Did I sigh?... No?" Wu Rou was surprised.

Li Shan then raised his head to look at her, looked at her expression, his eyes flashed, and he said with a smile on his lips:
"Your sighs have disturbed me, yet you still don't admit it?"

Wu Rou shut her mouth of denial, silently moved a pile of sorted memorials to his hand, and said:
"...It's nothing, it's just...that your Majesty didn't take me there, it's just a bit regretful."

When Li Shan heard this, his pupils shrank slightly, he turned his head calmly, and then looked at the memorial in front of him.

But he couldn't see it no matter how hard he looked. After a while, he asked softly:

"What's wrong? Serving me makes you uncomfortable?"

His voice was calm, light, and nonchalant, but Wu Rou inexplicably felt hurt in his words.

Wu Rou looked at his expression carefully, but saw nothing.

She couldn't help but wailed in her heart, saying in her heart: Wu Rou, Wu Rou, I guess it's because you are getting older and you are full of love. Now when you listen to people speaking normally, you can imagine different feelings?

Wake up, I am only 16 years old, and you are 20 years old. If you were to be compared to ordinary people, the children you would give birth to would be able to twist a flower rope!

Wu Rou put on a gentle smile. Regardless of whether Li Shan could see it or not, she tried her best to smile and said:
"How could it be? Your Highness the Crown Prince was joking. But after all, I am His Majesty's concubine, and I would rather serve His Majesty. Isn't it normal?"

Li Shan, who was looking at the memorial with his face downcast, was obviously stunned for a moment. His eyes fell on something blankly, as if he had just realized something. He stayed there for a long time, and then his face gradually turned pale.

He turned his eyes and looked at Wu Rou's position slightly with the tail of his eyes. He saw her turn around and take out the box of cinnabar ink and was about to add ink.

A trace of disgust, guilt, and panic flashed between his brows, and then he bit his lower lip hatefully and said calmly:

"I'll give you half a day off, and let someone else take over the duty."

Wu Rou was stunned while holding the box, but when she saw Li Shan retracting his gaze, his expression was very firm, and he could not tell whether he was happy or angry.

Wouldn't it be nice if someone could give her a holiday?

So she stood up obediently, bowed, and then left.

Wu Rou has a beautiful posture, a beautiful stride, and walks very fast.

She warned herself in her heart that coveting the young, beautiful, gentle, and polite Crown Prince was not a disease, but if she didn't show it properly, it would be a serious illness.

A serious illness that is fatal can be cured.

Li Shan raised his eyes and saw her disappearing behind the screen at the door, holding his forehead in distress, showing an expression of pain and self-blame.

He felt that he was finished...
