Confused country poison concubine

Chapter 565 Luckily (2)
The emperor looked at Qiu Yebai's gaze, and was startled suddenly. He was a little suspicious that he had seen the wrong eye. He hesitated for a moment, and waved his hand: "Everyone go down, you can't enter unless you are called."

The head of the Zijin Palace who was waiting on the side was stunned, a little hesitant: "Your Majesty..."

But seeing His Majesty's unmoved face, he could only nod his head: "Yes."

Afterwards, the chief steward led all the guards to retreat, not even the little eunuch serving tea, leaving only the emperor and Qiu Yebai kneeling on one knee in the empty main hall. .

"Qiu Yebai, do you know what you are talking about?" The emperor was silent for a while, then suddenly asked.

Qiu Yebai only looked at the Ninth Five Lord sitting on the dragon chair, and said quietly: "This minister is telling the truth."

The emperor's expression became a little complicated, he hesitated for a moment, and suddenly said: "You really treat Ze'er..."

He paused, and put it another way: "You really have a heart for Ze'er."

This is an affirmative sentence, not an interrogative sentence.

This is the judgment of His Majesty the Emperor.

She looked at the emperor, but said calmly: "Yes, Your Majesty, I know His Highness's identity, and I adore His Highness, so I don't consider it a crime, and I am willing to do my best for His Highness."

Bailichu is her man, he can do so many things for her, and he will do everything to get her, she also falls in love with him, and is willing to entrust her life and death with him, carefully planning, this statement is not a lie.

The emperor looked at Qiu Yebai kneeling in front of him, his eyes were complicated, and there was also a faint glint of light. He is the emperor, even if he has not been in court for many years, the so-called emperor's mind has been cultivated since childhood, which is enough for him to understand that the person in front of him is not lying.

With today's layout, he originally only wanted to test how loyal the young man in front of him was to Ze'er. After all, those entanglements back then had to make him suspicious...

Darkness flashed in the emperor's eyes, he didn't recall any more, but said lightly: "Sit down, get up and talk."

Qiu Yebai heard the emperor's tone softened a little, and felt slightly relieved, so she stood up and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

If she hadn't made a mistake in her judgment, the emperor couldn't have known the truth about her identity, and he wouldn't really want to kill her. What he said just now was just a way to test her loyalty. Special and complex enough.

Qiu Yunshang was the core figure of the royalist faction back then, but now she is the only one who survived and joined the Du family's camp, and on the surface, she was single-handedly supported by the Du family and the queen mother.

Although Ah Chu once told her that he had already told His Majesty the Emperor that she belonged to him before he descended to her as His Royal Highness.

But the emperor's presence today shows how suspicious this majesty is, and it can be seen that his retreat to the 'behind the scenes' and 'no court' is just a last resort.

He never gave up on coercing the Du family, maybe...he never really gave up the hope of regaining the imperial power.

Qiu Yebai's heart was slightly cold, Ah Chu and Ah Ze had such a father, they were really on par with Qiu Yunshang.

"You and Ze'er..." the emperor said hesitantly.

Qiu Yebai lowered her eyes, and suddenly interrupted him: "Every national teacher can't live past 37, does your majesty know?"

To reassure a suspicious monarch, he must naturally see her sincerity. She let the emperor see her sincerity to Ah Chu, to let him understand that she is now the same as the "Concubine Chen" back then, only relying on one The affection for Ah Chu can become a helping hand, and she will never betray her.

Even though she is a 'man' at the moment, it is not that there is no masculinity among the aristocrats in Shangjing. Although she is not on the stage, it is not a shocking thing.

The emperor was stunned: "You..."

Ze'er even told Qiu Yebai about this?
The emperor's expression became more and more complicated, looking at Qiu Yebai, as if he was struggling that his most beloved prince actually married a "man" who admired him, and this "man" was honest about his feelings for the prince. Love, this fact is...

"After all, you are young and frivolous, Qiu Yebai, you really have the audacity to act recklessly." His Majesty the Emperor frowned slightly, with a strange look on his face, but he did not intend to get angry.

After all, Qiu Yebai's ability to say this sentence shows that this person is indeed within the range of Ze'er's confidants.

Qiu Yebai said quietly: "Your Majesty forgives the sin, but I feel that life is too short, why bother to be bound by the world's etiquette, love what I love, and be loyal to me, so I will not regret it."

The emperor was startled, squinted his eyes to look at Qiu Yebai, and said in a deep voice: "You are loyal to Ze'er, it's not in vain that he came to ask me for this marriage in person."

Qiu Yebai didn't say much, just said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for fulfilling this."

The emperor paused, and suddenly laughed at himself, "It doesn't make any difference to Ze'er whether my father is perfect or not."

She was silent. She could see this. When Baili Chu came to tell her that he was going to marry her that day, he only said to inform the emperor.

The emperor suddenly started to cough again: "Cough cough cough cough..."

The white eyelashes of the autumn leaves lifted slightly, and she heard the coughing sound with lung rales, so she could know that His Majesty's illness was not as fake as she thought, he was really ill, and listening to that The cough sounded a lot like tuberculosis.

In this day and age, it is truly incurable.

"Your Majesty, you need someone to come in and serve you." Qiu Yebai looked at the emperor and said.

"Ahem... no need." The emperor coughed for a long time, wiped his lips with a handkerchief habitually, and then raised his head to look at her, the fatigue in his expression could not be concealed: "You are right, life It's short, I don't want to go against Ze'er's intentions, since you are Ze'er's confidant, I think you are well aware of some things, and I have something to tell you when I summon you alone this time."

Qiu Yebai saw that the emperor suddenly stopped putting on airs, and actually looked like he was going to confront her bluntly, and his heart trembled a little. It seemed that His Majesty might not be able to hold on for too long, so he wanted to go straight to the point.

She cupped her hands to show respect: "Your Majesty, please give me instructions."

The emperor looked at him with a flash of light in his eyes: "There is going to be a battle in the southern border province, and His Highness the Eighth Prince is about to go to war, you should understand."

Qiu Yebai was a little puzzled about what this matter had to do with her, so she heard the emperor continue: "I will make an order to promote you as the chief inspector of ceremonies, and the old eighth is about to lead the army to go out. You, the governor, are the chief inspector." military."

Her eyebrows twitched, and she couldn't help but said in amazement: "Your Majesty, how can a humble minister take on this task?"

"Historical Records Biography of Sima Rangju": I wish to be the king's favored minister, the country's respect, and to supervise the army.

The so-called supervising army means that the emperor sent his servants and favorite ministers to supervise the generals and assist in military affairs when the army went out, and the defense was that "the generals in foreign countries will not accept the orders of the emperor".
