happy event

Chapter 393
On this day, Murong Hao had just left the morning court and came to the Imperial Study Room. Today, the one who rubbed ink for him was a court lady who was two and a half years older than Murong Hao. Although the court lady was slightly older, she still had a lively and innocent face. , especially the way he laughed, it was somewhat similar to someone in Murong Hao's heart.This kind of similarity made Murong Hao lose his mind the first time he saw this court lady.

As soon as Murong Hao entered the imperial study room, the maid was ordered to wait in the imperial study room, her eyes met, the maid smiled shyly.This kind of shyness is rare in Chen Xi, at least not in front of Murong Hao. Murong Hao felt that the posture of this maid was not similar to Chen Xi, so he only glanced coldly at the maid, then walked to the table, Start reviewing the memorial.

The court lady Linglong saw that Murong Hao was suddenly a little cold towards her, she didn't know what the problem was for a while, so she bowed her head respectfully and continued grinding the ink.

For a full two hours, Linglong rubbed the ink respectfully. Seeing that Murong Hao's complexion was not very good from the moment he entered the door, she did not dare to laugh like before.

Finally, after Murong Hao finished reviewing all the memorials, he lay back lazily in a tired state, looking at the memorials on the case table like small hills.

"Congratulations to the emperor for finishing the review of the memorial." Linglong was so bored that she had no choice but to find something to say.This kind of looking for words made her feel a little embarrassed and embarrassed, and a blush appeared on her cheeks again.And this was exactly what Murong Hao didn't want to see.

Murong Hao ignored the court lady Linglong, got up and left the imperial study without saying a word, leaving Linglong at a loss.

Linglong watched Murong Hao's figure go farther and farther, and finally disappeared from sight. Her eyes gradually became moist. Everyone said that the king's heart was unpredictable. She didn't believe it. She always felt that Murong Hao was like a young man in front of her. same as children.Today, she really realized this sentence, and realized how naive she was.

Linglong returned to the room, and was about to enter the room when she was stopped by a figure.

Looking up, it was him, Eunuch Qiu, an eunuch who had been in the palace for over ten years. Although he had been in the palace for a long time, he was only 17 years old, more than three years younger than Linglong.However, this Eunuch Qiu didn't care about his age, he quietly pulled Linglong aside and whispered at the first sight of Linglong, saying that he wanted Linglong to form a pair with him so that he could get through the difficult years in the palace.

Linglong has just entered the palace for less than a year, compared to Eunuch Qiu, she has very little experience in the palace, and she has never heard of such things as food.So when Eunuch Qiu mentioned it, Linglong was stunned like a fool. She didn't understand until an older court lady who lived with her told her the true meaning of the food, and her eyes immediately became moist, and she couldn't help it at night. I wailed for a while.When meeting Eunuch Qiu again in the future, Linglong either walked away from him from a distance, or lowered her head to pretend not to know him.

"What do you think about what I said?" Eunuch Qiu asked him, looking around in a panic, making sure that there was no one around, and then set his eyes on Linglong.

Linglong blushed so much that she could bleed, "Grandpa Qiu, I don't know what you're talking about, the emperor asked the slaves to bring some things over there, so don't delay me any longer."

After Linglong was frightened by the word opposite food, seeing Eunuch Qiu was like seeing a ghost.

Eunuch Qiu stretched out his hand to grab Linglong's arm, Linglong froze all over, and hurriedly broke free from Eunuch Qiu's restraint.

Eunuch Qiu was stunned for a moment, "What are you hiding? I don't know how to eat people. Linglong, I came to you with good intentions. Even if you don't agree, you should give me an answer, right? Besides, Linglong, do you know how deep this is?" How tough is the palace? Do you know how many people will die in this palace in a year? Not to mention the concubines who are competing for favor, even the palace maids and father-in-law, I don’t know how many people will die. You and I only have one life, and a good life is a lifetime , It’s a lifetime if you don’t live well, you and I have this blessing to come to this world anyway, so we can’t just live in a daze, right?”

Seeing that Linglong didn't listen at all, Mr. Qiu said, "You silly girl, think about it, you don't have any relatives in this palace, and you don't have any family members outside the palace who can help you. If your family members are capable, you can You don’t need to be a court lady anymore. You and I are both blessed and unlucky, why don’t we live together as a companion?”

"Go away." Linglong trembled all over.

"Linglong, it doesn't matter if you don't think about it now, I can wait. Linglong, it's not that no one likes me. I just think they can't compare with you. There is something very special about you that attracts you. Me, it makes me feel very comfortable. I have been in this palace for so many years, I have seen all kinds of women, high-ranking and powerful, just entered the palace, all kinds, but you are different from them." Qiu Gonggong said A little anxious, for fear that Linglong would disappear from sight all at once.

Linglong's eyes were filled with tears, and her smoky eyebrows were slightly frowned, which made Eunuch Qiu feel distressed.

"Linglong, okay, okay, I won't make it difficult for you. If you don't agree, then don't agree. Can we be friends in the future? Just pretend that I have never said 'opposite food'." Eunuch Qiu was also a little flustered.

Linglong turned around and left, Eunuch Qiu was completely flustered, "Linglong, I was wrong, please forgive me, I just want to be friends with you. However, after being in the palace for so many years, I have forgotten what to do. Only in this way can we be friends with others. Can you listen to me? Linglong, I know you are in a bad mood today, because the emperor has turned cold towards you all of a sudden, do you know why?"

Linglong was going to run away, but when she heard Eunuch Qiu's last words, her feet stopped involuntarily.

Eunuch Qiu trotted up to Linglong, and looked around vigilantly, "Linglong, the emperor was attracted to you when he met you. I always thought it was because he liked you. Until one day, I went to the cell to give you golden silk osmanthus flowers." It was only then that I realized that things were not what I thought.”

"Golden silk sweet-scented osmanthus cake?" This kind of cake can't even be eaten by concubines who are not of high rank, let alone people in the prison cell. Who can eat this kind of food even in the prison cell?As for the name of the Golden Silk Osmanthus Crisp, Linglong only heard of it by chance, and had never even seen it.

Eunuch Qiu nodded, "It's that kind of crisp. I heard that more than 20 years ago, the empress dowager poisoned her best friend to death in order to eat this kind of crisp. But such a precious thing was sent to a cell called Chen Xi's girl ate it."

"Chenxi?" Linglong was completely unfamiliar with this name.

Qiugong said: "I saw the girl's appearance, you are quite similar to her. The emperor likes you and is close to you, probably because of this."

"No." Linglong was unwilling to accept this reality.She has heard and experienced all kinds of things in the palace, so she maintains a heart of reverence for the palace and everything Linglong in the palace.When Murong Hao met her and treated her well, she felt unspeakably happy in her heart. As long as things went smoothly, she would be able to get rid of worrying that someone would treat her badly.Especially when she just entered the palace, the sisters who were with her were obviously kind and sweet to her in all kinds of ways, but secretly plotted to harm her.If it wasn't for his fate, he would have suffered in the Palace of Hades already.

Eunuch Qiu sighed, "Linglong, I have been in the palace since I was young, and I have heard and seen more than you. Even if the emperor or other people look at the court ladies, the end of the court ladies will be very tragic. Before, the previous emperor looked at the palace. A court lady, that maid was still serving the Empress Dowager, no matter her appearance, character or talent, she was not inferior to those concubines, but in the end she was killed by Dowager Bo."

"What you said is not true. Your Majesty is different from the former Emperor. Moreover, Concubine Bo's power is gradually weakening. It is impossible for her to interfere with the Emperor's choice." The only thing Linglong watched during these days in the Imperial Study Got it is this.

Eunuch Qiu still let out a heavy sigh, this heavy sigh, this anxious worry, was extremely incongruous with his delicate face.

"Linglong, if he really doesn't want to be with you because you are you, then you won't be happy. If you are just someone else's shadow, he wants you to be by his side just to make up for the Even if he is a king, what's the point of this deficiency?" Eunuch Qiu's eyes were a little moist, since he came to the insensitive palace, how long has it been since he had wet eyes?He can barely remember himself.

Linglong looked at Eunuch Qiu, bit her lips tightly, but still didn't believe Eunuch Qiu's words, and ran away as if running away.

From then on, apart from the emperor, there was another person in Linglong's heart, and that was Chen Xi.

Chen Xi, who is she?

After many inquiries, they found out that Chenxi was the daughter of King Zhongshan.Just because of her status, she is more than a lot shorter.In addition, Chen Xi is very capable, and has never made a mistake in taking care of the huge workshop.

After hearing all kinds of things about Chenxi, Linglong feels ashamed.

Today, it was time for her to serve Murong Hao in the imperial study room to review the memorials.

Linglong came to the imperial study room early, feeling a little uneasy, her cheeks were even more rosy because of the entanglement.Grandpa Qiu told her that Gardi had changed at the border between Daqi and the grassland, and the people of Maitreya Sect were even more crazy.This news was not ordinary news to Linglong, and it was not easy to tell Murong Hao about it.As long as you don't pay attention, you may be charged with interfering with government affairs.She is just a little maid, such a crime is enough to kill the nine clans.

When the door of the imperial study room was opened again, Linglong could hear her frantic heartbeat, that restless heart seemed to jump out, away from her master.

After Murong Hao entered the door, he took a look at Linglong.Linglong flustered, quickly lowered her head, and then thought that she had forgotten to salute, so she hurried to the center of the study, and saluted Murong Hao who had already come to sit beside the table.

Murong Hao just gave an indifferent 'hmm', then looked down at the memorial.

Linglong secretly looked at Murong Hao, but she still couldn't understand why his attitude towards her suddenly changed. In the past, whenever she saw Linglong smile or hear Linglong speak, Murong Hao would be very happy.Seeing the dark clouds covering Murong Hao's face, Linglong was very worried.My heart was even more disturbed, should I reveal to the emperor what Eunuch Qiu told her?
After Murong Hao finished reviewing a memorial, the ink on the brush was dry, and he reached out to dip in new ink. Seeing Linglong's tangled expression, he couldn't help frowning, but he didn't read much, and continued to review the memorial.After hesitating for a while, Murong Hao couldn't help asking: "Is there something on your mind?"

Murong Hao's voice was like the sound of heaven, which immediately disturbed Linglong's heart.

Linglong was flustered, not knowing how to answer Murong Hao, "Your Majesty... slave... slave just heard some wind and rain, and I don't know whether I should tell the emperor. I am worried that those wind and rain are real and will mess up the whole country. , Disturbing the peace of the emperor. I am afraid that the wind and rain are fake, which will make the emperor even more upset."

"Let's talk." Murong Hao's eyes were still fixed on the memorial, even his heart was on the memorial, as for Linglong's entangled words, he didn't take it to heart at all.
