Chapter 178
"Where did you get this painting...?"

The emperor's voice sounded low and slow. Haruyuki raised her head, and the surprise in her heart when she saw the painting disappeared suddenly. Looking at the emperor's secretive expression, she lifted her heart up, knelt heavily, and said in a panic: " Your Majesty forgives me, this painting of concubines is..."

She bit the tip of her tongue, and swallowed all the words that followed.

She didn't say anything, but the emperor knew, "Is it the fourth girl of the Yun family who gave it to you?"

"Your Majesty, forgive me." Chun Xue knelt down on the ice-cold jade steps, her black hair like a cloud spread out from behind her, and also fell on the shiny jade steps. Skin as bright as jade.

The emperor in a large black robe walked up to her slowly, picked up the thin gauze and covered her body, and helped her up himself: "I haven't said anything yet, why is my concubine so nervous?"

Haruyuki's slender waist was held in his arms, and she raised her face with tears in her eyes: "I'm afraid."

"What are you afraid of?"

Haruyuki shook his head.

The emperor read her mind.She is different from these concubines in the palace. She has no family to rely on behind her. Before she was named Chu Concubine, she was just a little palace maid.She has no background, no influence, and her honor and disgrace rest on him alone.

She is not very smart, she never thought of cultivating her own power in the palace, but she is not too stupid, anyway, she still knows how to curry favor with him.

She was afraid that if he got angry, if he got angry, she would lose everything she had now. The fine clothes, food, and honorable residence were all given by him.

The emperor sighed from the bottom of his heart, and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with his hand: "Why do you love to cry so much? After I go, with your temper, if you fall into the palace, won't you be eaten by them?"

He pretended to be majestic, but when he saw Haruyuki's pouted lips, he couldn't help but want to laugh.

Before he could say anything, Haruyuki pushed him away and said sternly, "If you go, Haruyuki won't be able to survive, so I will naturally go with you. In this world, Haruyuki was just a little palace maid, but you Honorable Ninth Five-Year, it is already a great blessing for Haruyuki to serve you. But in the underworld, if you and I meet again, we will all become the same lonely ghosts. At that time, Haruyuki will definitely find you, and we will do together For the desperate mandarin ducks."

The emperor stared at her, and after a while, he pinched her nose: "I'm still a child, what do you want to do so much?"

However, despite saying this, it couldn't bury the throbbing in his heart.

In the past few decades, he has not always been smooth, and there have been times when he was close to death, countless people knelt in front of his dragon bed and cried for him, heartbroken; sometimes, he would talk about the future with the people around him. Well, people are always going to die, not to mention his body is getting worse and worse than before.No one dared to respond to him, so he could only say some nice words in fear, thinking that he would stop worrying.

Those cries and those auspicious words never really touched his heart for a moment.He is such a cold-hearted person, he knew this a long time ago when he saw his father who had always loved him close his eyes on the empty bed, but there was no fluctuation in his heart.

He didn't expect that one day he would be able to be moved by someone else's words.

Haruyuki waved his hand away and said seriously, "So you must eat well and sleep well."

The emperor laughed: "Okay, I will listen to you."

Seeing him like this, Haruyuki boldly asked, "This painting... the Emperor thinks there is something wrong with it?"

The emperor's gaze was attracted by the painting on the desk again. After carefully looking at the shapes and expressions of each person in the painting, he shook his head: "This painting...is very good."

It's too good to be true.

"You have a good relationship with Miss Yun Si?" He asked Chun Xue again. As far as he knew, Yun Zhuo's identity was not simple.

He thought that Yun Zhuo had used improper means to make friends with Haru Xue.

After Haruyuki knew that he wasn't angry, he stopped being restrained: "It's not very good, but my concubine likes her, so I asked her to come into the palace to talk again and again."

She told the emperor about her relationship with Yun Zhuo, and concealed what Yun Zhuo had said to herself at the beginning, and only said that she was very sad at that time, but happened to be met by Yun Zhuo, and Yun Zhuo comforted her a lot.

Therefore, she always thought of Yun Zhuo's goodness, and was very close to her.

After knowing this, the emperor no longer worried about the relationship between the two.

The antecedent of giving charcoal in the snow is always better than the icing on the cake.

"Put this painting away."

Chun Xueyuan thought about speaking for Qiu Renfeng that Yun Zhuo was talking about, but this was not the right time to speak, so she could only write it down and talk about it later.

……

In the blink of an eye, it was July, and Mu Guiliu had been in Huanling for more than half a year.

Huanling is to the north, and it is dry and hot in summer. Although Mu Guiliu is energetic, he is too old to stand the heat. He has not had time to dig a room to store ice before. Although he always said he could hold it, he has already Passed out twice.

The people below really dare not make him tired, but he has been in Huanling for so long, although he was not voluntary at the beginning, but after so many days, he seems to have regarded himself as the parent officer of this place, and there are many chores recently, he always said Can't leave it alone.

After Xie Jie found out about this, he wrote to the emperor to transfer Shen Qinghe to Huanling. As for Muguiliu, it was time to return to Langya to take care of him.

Gu Chengrui's matter has not yet been resolved, and the fact that Mu returned to Liu at this time is not a big deal, the emperor only glanced at Xie Jie's memorial, and he was sure.

But when he saw Xie Jie, he thought of that painting again. He listened to Xuexuan about Qiu Renfeng and paid attention to it. Later, he naturally asked the people below to investigate, and when it came out, it was also to his liking. Innocently implicated this matter, he was confused at that time, so he ordered Qiu Renfeng to be demoted as an official, now the truth is revealed, he is the king of a country, he can't face himself, so he thought of other ways to remedy it.

He vaguely remembered that Qiu Renfeng was Zheng Qinnian's brother-in-law, and it happened that Zheng Qinnian was considered a clean and honest official, so the court praised Zheng Qinnian and promoted him to an official position.As for the person who impeached Qiu Renfeng back then, he found out some secrets. Thinking of this, he lowered his brows, but did not explode.

Standing in the ranks of civil servants, Zheng Jianqin looked proudly at the opposite general who was gnashing his teeth.

However, the next moment, he felt a little melancholy again.

It is really a pity that Qinnian can have such an encounter today, thanks to that girl of the Yun family. It is a pity that such a transparent and intelligent girl cannot be his daughter-in-law of the Zheng family.

He looked at the straight figure in front of him, and sighed.

It's not as good as people, there's no way.
