[It’s a very clichéd episode, first I wish everyone a happy Mid-Autumn Festival and eat more mooncakes! 】

[The story of Senior Brother and Your Majesty has just been pre-ordered, if you are interested, you can collect it~]

------

In the autumn of Xuanxi's 18th year, the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, and during the festive season, the Mingcheng Palace in the imperial capital was rarely lonely.

As the bright moon entered the window lattice, Ling Ye sat in front of the imperial case and drew a circle on the day "August [-]" in the imperial calendar.

A few months ago, something difficult happened to Yiye Gucheng, and Chu Heng, as the Lord of Lishan Mountain, had to go back in person.But he never thought that this trip would be stumbling. Counting the days, he had been away from the imperial capital for two or three months.

Marquis Xuan Ning has been away from His Majesty for a long time, and some people's hearts will inevitably become active.

Ling Ye put down the vermilion pen in his hand, and rubbed his fingertips over the paper smeared with cinnabar. A red string tied to his right wrist followed his movements around the paper. Ling Ye's gaze touched the paper. The red moment softened, stroked the slightly loose knot, and all the well-hidden thoughts in the bottom of my heart were hooked up.

It's been ten years.

When he and Chu Heng met for the first time, it was in the eighth year of Xuanxi, also in autumn, and it was colder than now. When he accidentally saw Chu Heng in black guard uniform with cold eyes in the Hall of Martial Arts, he was really shocked. It can be called a glimpse.

At that time, he had just regained the power of the emperor, and his foundation was not stable. No matter how amazing the encounter, no matter how deep the emotion was, he could only keep it in his heart, and he couldn't say a word, and he didn't dare to say it.Who the emperor is with, sometimes it is not up to the emperor himself to decide, the more he likes, the more dangerous Chu Heng will be, and the more he will be the target of public criticism.

It's just that the word love is too harsh, he couldn't help but want to get close to Chu Heng, and quietly transferred Chu Heng to the place closest to him, thinking that he could just take a look at him more.

People are always greedy, especially when the sweetheart gradually begins to have a bit of himself in his heart, the admiration that was originally hidden in the heart suddenly grows like vines, filling the entire atrium in a blink of an eye.

He thought, as the lord of the world, why can't he even hold the person he likes in his arms?He had his heart moved just once, and all the softness in his heart was used to let this person go. He didn't want his sweetheart to be just a spoiled emperor, he wanted Chu Heng to stand by his side dignifiedly.

But he knows better than anyone else that the emperor doesn't have any love of his own. If he doesn't accept the harem, he will be strongly opposed by the family. What's more, the person he likes is a man. He can almost imagine what Chu Heng, who is the target of public criticism, will face. .Unless, Chu Heng himself is strong enough, so strong that no one dares to confront him, only then can he truly be with himself safe and sound.

Chu Heng is the concubine son of Zhong Pinghou. At the peak of the power struggle, such an identity is far from enough.He spent the whole night thinking in the Mingcheng Palace, and almost planned how to bring Chu Heng down to one person and above ten thousand people, how to make him stand at the pinnacle of power step by step, without having to fear and worry about anyone's attacks.This process is very long, but he can wait, he thought, if Chu Heng is willing, they might really be able to live together like ordinary people.

He tried every means to shorten the long process, but he never thought that his Ah Yue would be Lishan Dongjun.

Ling Ye stretched out his hand and caressed the words "August [-]" on Fuhuang's calendar. He felt a little disappointed, and he might not be able to catch up.Chu Heng didn't have time to come back, and he was caught up in many miscellaneous matters from the imperial court, so he couldn't go to Lishan.

The festive season is coming, but the moon is full and people are missing.

Seeing that most of the time was past, the head of Mingcheng Palace who was waiting on the side couldn't help but stepped forward to remind him: "Your Majesty, it's time to rest. Tomorrow I will receive Nan Xi's envoy. There will be a banquet tonight, and some are busy."

Ling Ye rubbed the center of his brows, and repeated softly: "Ye Banquet..."

The palm hall looked at his expression, and persuaded him again: "Your Majesty was not allowed to stay up late as you were told before you left."

Hearing this, Ling Ye turned his head and cursed with a smile: "You should listen to him."

Having said that, he still got up and was served by the palace servants, who waited for him to go to bed.

The next day was August [-]th, Ling Ye received Dayin's pilgrimage to Nanxi in the Xuanzheng Hall, and the evening banquet at the Zichen Hall was to show the demeanor of Dayin's state of etiquette and to wash away the dust.In fact, it would be fine if it was just an ordinary night banquet, but someone had other thoughts.

After the singing and dancing subsided, Nan Xi came forward to salute, expressing his intention to present a beauty to the emperor.

The son of heaven has a noble status, so the beauty is not an ordinary beauty. She is the youngest son of the lord of Nanxi, a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, with bright eyes, red lips and white teeth, kneeling softly and weakly in the middle of the hall.

Ling Ye remained motionless, looking at the kneeling person below with his usual expression, but his eyes had already turned cold.Nan Xi obviously did his homework, Chu Heng was the only one around him, presumably he knew he didn't like women, so he specially sent such a boy who didn't distinguish between men and women, but this boy was sensitive and valuable, so he couldn't easily refuse Disposed of dancers and showgirls.As soon as the words of refusal are spoken, it is undoubtedly to disgrace the Nanxi Kingdom Lord in full view, and the diplomatic relations between the two countries will inevitably be frustrated to some extent.

Ling Ye sneered in his heart, and glanced around the hall. Nanxi was close to Dayin Yuezhou. This young man had obviously been carefully trained. Just the way he bowed his head and knelt there was enough to be loved and loved. It's not like he doesn't know the customs of Nanxi, and Nanxi's beauties are not like this.I'm afraid that the person who really wants to offer someone to be kind is not so much the Lord of Nanxi, but a family from Yuezhou.

If there is one, there will be two. The young man in front of him is the stepping stone. The matter of Yiye Gucheng is not over. Xuan Ninghou will not be able to come back in a short time. The quick-witted man finally seized the opportunity and first picked a time when the emperor would not be able to refuse directly. Send it to the palace, even if Chu Heng came back from Lishan, this person would not be able to go back.As long as this start is started, the thoughts of many aristocratic families that have been rested will be revived, and there will be a rift between him and Chu Heng sooner or later.

Ling Ye's voice was flat, and he thanked the Lord Nanxi for his kindness. He only said that Prince Nanxi Junrong came from afar and had never seen the scenery of the imperial capital of the Dayin Emperor.

The envoy from Nanxi didn't know where the Linchang Palace was in the imperial city, and seeing that the emperor didn't refuse, he thanked him very happily and sat down.The patriarchs of several families in Yuezhou froze. Although the emperor agreed to allow people to live in the imperial city, the Linchang Palace was not the emperor's harem, but belonged to the front court.But no matter what, at least he was sent to the palace, and the head of the family gave Prince Jun Rong a wink.

The news that His Majesty accepted a beauty from Nanxi at the banquet quickly spread in Ming Cheng Palace.Even though Chu Heng, who was far away on Lishan Mountain, didn't know about it, the little maids began to fight for Empress Chu.They had been waiting in Ming Cheng Palace for a long time, and under Ling Ye's subtle influence, they all focused on Chu Heng first, and Ling Ye himself had to lean back.

Seeing that the little maids were getting more and more outrageous, the master of Mingcheng Palace quickly waved them away. At this time, the palace banquet of Zichen Palace was over. Although His Majesty and Xuan Ninghou seldom reprimanded the palace maids, they always indulged them. Generous, but it's fine to whisper gossip in private, it's disrespectful to let His Majesty hear it, not to mention that His Majesty may not be in a good mood today.

The bright moon hangs high, the night is quiet, and there are many palaces and palaces in the majestic imperial capital. I don't know how many people tossed and turned this night and couldn't sleep.

The candles in Mingcheng Hall had already been extinguished, and Zhang Dian withdrew from the bedroom, and several palace servants under his hand carried lanterns and walked towards the residence.

Tonight, His Royal Highness Junrong from Nanxi has already lived in the Linchang Palace of the imperial city. Among them is a young palace official who has just entered the Mingcheng Palace. Li went to Linchang Hall to deliver things, saw the astonished Highness Jun Rong, and his heart was ups and downs, and he hadn't calmed down until now, and heard them talking about Chu Heng, he still couldn't bear it. He couldn't stop saying: "No matter how good-looking Xuan Ninghou is, he is only in his thirties. Can he compare to a young man of seventeen or eighteen?"

The palm hall glanced at him, and sneered: "Not as good? You have to see if he is qualified to compare with Xuan Ninghou. How can the emperor be so easy to stand by? Do you think that there is only one Xuan Ning beside His Majesty for so many years?" Hou, all the aristocratic families are not openly opposed, are they just based on good looks and His Majesty's liking?"

Zhangdian couldn't help laughing in his heart, Xuan Ninghou was not in the imperial capital for three months, some people couldn't sit still.

Chu Heng has been by His Majesty's side for ten years, and the major families who can tell clearly no longer take the initiative to send their daughter Cheng En, not only because He is the only one in His Majesty's heart, but also because he is the Mahayana Eastern Lord.What can make these aristocratic families retreat is never the emperor's liking, but himself.He is strong enough to stand alone beside the emperor and silence all who oppose him.Even if he is standing in the center of public criticism, no one dares to shoot an arrow at him.

The [-]th day of August is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the Son of Heaven sympathized with the move to the [-]th, and only discussed some important matters that need to be dealt with in the court on the [-]th.Even so, the whole morning was spent in the Xuanzheng Hall.

It was late in the evening when Ling Ye finished dealing with the political affairs. He was a little hesitant about something on the booklet, so he went to the Wenqu Pavilion in the front court of the imperial city to look up ancient books. He had just sat down in the inner hall, and the book hadn't been opened yet. In two pages, an uninvited guest came first.

It is not a trivial matter for the emperor's whereabouts to be known by people without reason. His face darkened, and the emperor's majesty stood out.

At the same time, in the Ming Cheng Palace, the emperor's residence, suddenly in the warm glow of the sunset, Empress Dayin, who had been away for three months, suddenly arrived.

Chu Heng didn't disturb anyone on the road, and suddenly appeared in the palace, which surprised all the palace people in Ming Cheng Palace.

Rao was in charge, his eyes widened unavoidably, thinking that he had misread: "Hou...Hou Ye?!"

Chu Heng nodded in agreement, he came all the way, and finally arrived at the imperial capital on the fifteenth day, he came by coincidence, not to mention the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion night, and heard an "interesting story" on the way.

The little maid stepped forward to take his cloak, looked at his normal expression and asked, "Why did Lord Hou come back so soon?"

There was no joy or anger in Chu Heng's voice, but what he said still made the little maid startled: "I heard that someone sent a beauty to His Majesty, I will hurry back to see how beautiful it is."

Although they just fought against Chu Heng together yesterday, Xuan Ninghou is obviously "angry" at the moment, but his majesty went to the front court again in the afternoon, just in case he happens to be with His Highness Yunrong from Nanxi again , the consequences are simply unimaginable.

The little palace maid's scalp was numb, and together with the palm hall, she desperately winked at the people standing outside.

It's a pity that Marquis Xuan Ning understood it, his eyes swept away, he was stunned that no one dared to inform the emperor.

The corners of Chu Heng's lips lifted slightly, he took off his wrist guard, and went straight to Wenqu Pavilion.

The ancient book in Ling Ye's hand turned another page, Jun Rong knelt down, his knees ached, but the emperor didn't seem to see him, and he didn't cry out since he saluted, he was worried, but he wanted to Seeing what the lord of Yuezhou said to him when he entered the palace, he could only grit his teeth and continue to lie on the ground.

Suddenly there was the sound of bamboo slips being placed on the table, and the emperor actually got up and walked down, Jun Rong was overjoyed, thinking that the emperor had changed his mind, but he didn't want the emperor to walk around him and walk straight behind him.

The smile gradually froze at the corner of his mouth, Yun Rong was born in the Nanxi royal family, and he knew from a young age that the emperor is not expressing his emotions, his likes and dislikes, but at this moment, he really heard the voice of Emperor Dayin Li was unabashedly delighted: "When did you come back?"

Yun Rong's heart was filled with sorrow for a moment, he couldn't help but look up at the person who was embraced by the emperor when he walked in from the outside——

Xuan Ninghou, Chu Heng.

He had heard of this person before he came to Dayin, but he was still confident that he could capture the heart of Emperor Dayin.In terms of age, he is in his youth, in terms of appearance, he is the most beautiful woman in Nanxi, and in terms of temperament, he is soft, delicate and lovable that all high-ranking people will like.

But at this moment when he saw Chu Heng for the first time, he understood why this person could stand beside Emperor Dayin alone.

Xuan Ninghou is not a dodder attached to anyone, he is compatible with Dayin's emperor, not subordinate.

Chu Heng lowered his eyes and glanced at the kneeling person on the ground, squeezed Ling Ye's waist gently, and leaned over to bite his ear with him: "I'm jealous."

Empress Dayin didn't give His Majesty a chance to defend herself, she coughed lightly and said to the person lying on the ground: "Your Highness Yun Rong, get up."

Seeing that the emperor had no intention of objecting, Jun Rong stood up staggeringly. Seeing this, Chu Heng stretched out his hand to help him, and said with a smile: "Your Highness has worked hard all the way from afar, the palace should have given us warm hospitality, but unfortunately Today is the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month, and it is the day of family reunion in Dayin, His Highness is going to do as the Romans do, so why not reunite with the envoys from Nanxi."

Jun Rong's face changed slightly when he heard the words, the meaning in Xuan Ninghou's words was actually to send him out of the palace, but he came to Dayin to stay by the emperor's side, now that he is out of the palace, I'm afraid there will be no chance again.

He looked at the emperor timidly, couldn't help but opened his mouth, his voice was [-]% endearing: "Jun Rong doesn't dare to ask extravagantly, but just wants to stay by His Majesty's side to serve..."

Before he finished speaking, Xuan Ninghou interrupted him with a faint smile——

Chu Heng said, "I'm not sure."

Yun Rong's eyes turned red instantly, he knew that Xuan Ninghou was favored, but he never thought that Xuan Ninghou would be so presumptuous in front of the emperor, he bit his lip and looked at the emperor.

However, the emperor's eyes were on Xuan Ninghou from the beginning to the end, and he didn't give him a look. Xuan Ninghou seemed to have seen his intention, and asked the emperor for him: "Your Majesty?"

The emperor held Xuan Ninghou's hand, and only Xuan Ninghou was in his eyes, and replied with a slight smile: "All listen to the queen."

Queen...

Yun Rong's complexion was as pale as paper.

"It's getting late, send His Highness Yunrong out of the palace."

The respectful voices of the palace servants standing outside should be the same, Jun Rong stepped half a step out of the Wenqu Pavilion, and heard Xuan Ninghou's voice behind him: "Your Highness, you are still young, and you have not met anyone you really like. You You are a prince, Nanxi is your best destination, why stay away from your homeland and live under others."

Sending off Prince Nanxi, without outsiders here, Ling Ye finally couldn't bear to hold him in his arms, Chu Heng sat on His Majesty's lap, and only let His Majesty kiss him before holding his wrist, deliberately eating Taste: "No wonder even the beauties dare to accept it. It turns out that my red string is loose."

Ling Ye let him fasten the red string on his wrist, kissed his earlobe, and rubbed his ears together: "He is not as good-looking as you, but my Ah Yue is the prettiest."

……

The moonlight melted, and the sky outside the imperial city was full of fireworks, blooming in unison.Chu Heng nestled in Ling Ye's arms and heard the sound of the watch from the palace outside coming from far and near.

It's August sixteenth.

Ling Ye kissed the corner of the lips of the person in his arms, and asked him gently: "What do you want for this year's birthday?"

Chu Heng looked into his eyes, pondered for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "I want His Majesty to kiss me."

"Just want this?"

Chu Heng closed his eyes and stroked the position of his heart: "Well, I only want this."

He is the only person living in this place, and he has everything he wants to live here. With all the love and trust of his sweetheart, everything is as he wishes.

They had met for ten years, he had lived here for ten years, and there would be many more decades to come.

During the festive season, the moon is round and people are round.
