The Scum Shou's Survival Guide

Chapter 41 The Emperor He Is My Bamboo Horse

Is that why you don't want to see me...would you rather let me sleep in another woman's bed than push me away!

The veins on Li Zechen's forehead popped up, the hand hanging by his side trembled slightly because of too much force, his voice was suppressed and painful: "Do you know what you are talking about..."

Ye Ming suddenly didn't dare to look him in the eyes, as if he had done something too cruel, but he still hardened his heart: "The emperor must not have an heir, otherwise the country will be unstable."

"Aiqing is really loyal, huh..." Li Zechen's hoarse voice escaped from his throat, but his heart was a little bit cold.

Ye Ming knelt down and fell on the ground, "I must not be a person who harms the country, and I ask the emperor to put the country and the country as the most important thing."

Li Zechen stared fixedly at the person kneeling in front of him.

You are selfless enough, but have you ever understood that I hope you can be a little selfish and presumptuous sometimes... Have you ever understood how cruel you really are.

He gave me all the beautiful things I longed for, but ruthlessly took them away, telling me that everything was nothing but an illusion, and I couldn't grasp anything in the end.

[Ding, Li Zechen's blackening value +10, the current blackening value is 80]

After a long time, Li Zechen let go of his tight hand little by little, and suddenly let out a low laugh, with a bit of a tragic taste: "Okay, I will listen to you."

After speaking, he strode away without any hesitation, turned his head and said to the trembling eunuch beside him, "Go to Concubine Chen's Palace!"

Ye Ming didn't slowly get up from the ground until he could no longer see Li Zechen's figure.

【888: He really went, let's play it off. 】

【Ye Ming: How come?It's just because of the man's face, and he doesn't have to do anything when he goes there, it can also be a chat and a heart-to-heart talk. 】

[888: ...Are you so sure? 】

【Ye Ming: Of course. 】

[888: I must remind you that the blackening value has risen again. 】

[Ye Ming: It's okay, he just thinks that I don't care about him, I just need to find a chance to show that I care about him, I actually think about him, it's not easy to get rid of the blackening value~]

【888: Hehe...】

So human beings are inexplicable, if he kills this hot chicken every minute, and still entangles him like this endlessly?If there is any problem, one beating will be fine, if not, then two beatings will be enough.

………………

Li Zechen strode out of Fengyang Palace, the night wind was cold outside, he stopped at the gate of the palace.

The eunuch cautiously asked Li Zechen: "The emperor...will you still go?"

He has been by Li Zechen's side all the time, and he is very aware of the importance Li Zechen attaches to Ye Ming, thinking that what Li Zechen said just now was just out of anger.

Li Zechen twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, he turned his head and glanced at the lit candles in the palace, his eyes were full of powerlessness, finally he closed his eyes and said, "Go."

The eunuch was stunned for a moment, could it be that the emperor really gave up this time?

Concubine Chen had already gone to bed, she always slept early, but today she was woken up by someone, the palace was full of panic and noise, she was stupefied when she heard that the emperor was coming, she woke up with a fright!Anxiously clutching Nanny's hand: "Emperor, is the Emperor really coming?"

Mammy also had an expression of being hit by the pie in the sky, and her voice trembled with excitement, "It's absolutely true! The father-in-law next to the emperor just passed the word in person, and it will be here soon. Madam, wash up quickly, hey, wipe the eyeballs here quickly!" wipe!"

Concubine Chen rushed down in a hurry, washing her face and combing her hair. She had never been so flustered in her life, and then hurriedly changed her clothes. Before she could put on her shoes, she heard the emperor coming. She hurriedly rushed out and fell down. Wrestling, here comes a five-body throwing gift.

As soon as Li Zechen entered, he saw a woman with messy hair throwing herself down in front of him.

This is a disgrace before the king... The maids and maids who were kneeling on the ground next to her were all trembling, and it seemed that the chance that had been so hard-won was about to go to waste. How could the emperor take a liking to such a reckless and stupid woman.

Concubine Chen is very inconspicuous in the palace no matter her family background or appearance, now the emperor definitely doesn't like her even more.

Concubine Chen was so frightened that she was about to cry, so it took a while to react, she raised her head tremblingly and said, "Minister, my concubine welcomes the emperor..."

Li Zechen glanced at her indifferently, walked in as if nothing had happened, and the eunuch who followed behind him quickly stepped forward to close the door and guarded the door.

A group of people: "..."

The emperor just went in without saying anything? ? ?Are you not angry?

Concubine Chen saw that Li Zechen came in and closed the door. She was also educated and knew that she should serve the emperor now, but her hands and feet were still trembling nervously.She has always been introverted and dull, and she feels very shy about serving men, and she can't let go of it no matter what, but thinking about the person in front of her is the emperor, she still gritted her teeth and wanted to go up and help him change clothes.

Li Zechen turned his head and looked at her.

Probably because of the haste of getting up, the girl in front of her eyes was still a little confused, her hair was combed in a hurry, and her clothes were crooked. At this moment, her nervous face turned pale and she was filled with fear.

He came over suddenly, which obviously frightened her.

Li Zechen sighed: "Go to sleep, I will stay here for a while."

Concubine Chen said blankly: "The concubine should serve the emperor to rest..."

The reason why Li Zechen chose to come to Concubine Chen's palace was because she heard that she was a quiet and obedient person, seeing her like this, he couldn't bear to lose his temper with her, so he said coldly: "This is my order. "

Concubine Chen struggled for a while, but she was afraid that Li Zechen was terribly afraid, so she could only walk back to the bed, seeing that Li Zechen was not angry, so she began to sleep with her eyes closed, but because she was too afraid to fall asleep, she couldn't help but secretly Look at Li Zechen.

I saw Li Zechen sitting on a chair.

Concubine Chen was so sleepy afterwards that she fell asleep in a daze. When she opened her eyes in the middle of the night, Li Zechen was still sitting there like that, as if she hadn't moved at all. Maybe it was her hallucination... Could it be that Li Zechen came here to be in the Sit here all night?

Concubine Chen woke up the next day and found that Li Zechen was no longer there, and everything yesterday was like a dream.

………………

Sure enough, Li Zechen did not go to Fengyang Palace again, and stayed in other concubines' palaces for more than ten days in a row. Ye Ming stayed in his own palace as if nothing had happened, without asking a word about Li Zechen's whereabouts.

This day Ye Ming had breakfast and was taking a walk in the garden as usual, when he suddenly heard a few court ladies whispering behind the rockery.

"The emperor went to Concubine Chen's palace again today, and he has lived there for several days."

"Really? Could it be that the emperor has fallen in love with Concubine Chen?"

"Could it be that the young master is about to fall out of favor..."

Ye Ming paused, as if he didn't hear it, he turned and walked away.

【Ye Ming: Everyone in this palace has the professionalism of a dramatist. You must let me hear you when you whisper something, and you can't do it too clearly. It's not easy for me to find out that it's intentional. 】

【888:...】

【Ye Ming: I suddenly discovered our emperor's cute side. In fact, he is just an arrogant and childish child. He was worried that I wouldn't know when he went to other women. I tried to let me know without asking. Did he think that Will I be jealous? 】

【888: Of course you won't be jealous. 】

【Ye Ming: You are wrong!I'm so jealous! ! ! 】

888: I'll wipe it, what's the situation?

【Ye Ming: I also want to share a room with beautiful girls!Even if you can't sleep, it's pleasing to watch!Hehehehehe...] The laughter here is obscene.

[888: ...] This scumbag!

After another period of time like this, Ye Ming still acted as if nothing had happened, but the servants who served him seemed a little unsteady, as if they thought he had really fallen out of favor.She always dangled in front of him with a sad expression, hesitant to speak, trying to persuade him to ask the emperor to come back, but Ye Ming was unmoved.

【888: It's been more than a month, and Li Zechen hasn't come to see you. Congratulations, you've set a new record. 】

【Ye Ming: I guess he won't last long. 】

[888: Oh?You are going to give him to someone else, and he will come back?The dignified emperor has no backbone at all? 】

【Ye Ming: Hey, love is such an annoying little fairy.The one who loves earlier and deeper is destined to be the loser~]

【Ye Ming: But it doesn't matter, in fact, I still like him quite a bit, and I will pamper him well^_^】

888: You better stop loving him.

………………

Ye Ming had dinner that day and went to bed early to rest.

He has never slept very deeply. He turned over in the middle of the night and opened his eyes in a daze. There seemed to be a black figure in front of him. Moonlight saw clearly that the person in front of him was Li Zechen.

Ye Ming immediately sat up from the bed and was about to salute, but was hugged by Li Zechen and lay back down.

Li Zechen hugged the person in his arms tightly and closed his eyes.

These days, Ye Ming never asked him where he was going, even though he knew he was staying in another concubine's palace, he still didn't care... He really didn't care... What else could he hope for?

He clearly knew that he was not welcome, and he knew that he didn't want to see him, but he still came back...

If the pain is the same no matter which path you choose, then at least when you are with this person, you still have something to think about.

It was you who won, and I lost a complete defeat.

After a long time, Ye Ming felt the familiar atmosphere of the people around him. He felt a little complicated and nervous. He thought that Li Zechen would never come back, so he whispered, "Your Majesty..."

Li Zechen opened his eyes in the dark and said softly, "Don't talk."

Don't talk, be quiet, just let me hug you for a while...

Ye Ming stopped talking and closed his eyes.

Li Zechen likes the way Ye Ming is asleep. When he is asleep, he will not look at him with such indifferent eyes, will not protect himself with that seemingly docile but alienated barb, and will not reject him thousands of miles away .

He stretched out his fingers, lightly traced the outline of the face of the person in his arms, and brushed over the soft lips.

Why, just can't love me?Am I too late, or am I not good enough for you?Or... just because of my identity?

I actually know what you think... You want to be famous forever and be a good minister. When we were studying together... I knew you were such a person...

But I selfishly want to keep you by my side.

I thought I could give you everything, but what I don't know is that this is not what you want at all.

Li Zechen slowly tightened his hands.

Do you regret being nice to me back then, regretting provoking me...

However, it is too late to regret.

………………

Li Zechen was processing the memorial in the imperial study that day, and the leader of the secret guard quietly entered the palace to report the situation to him.

The leader of the hidden guard: "Your Majesty, Zuo Yu has indeed given the news to Duke Zheng's mansion. Now that Li Zeyuan knows about it, he has made a lot of moves recently. It seems that he is ready to do something, but there is currently no way to infiltrate the palace. "

Li Zechen's eyes were cold: "I have tolerated him for a long time, since that's the case, let's make a break."

That night Li Zechen returned to Fengyang Palace, and after having dinner with Ye Ming, he said, "I plan to go to the palace to stay for a while, Wen Qing will go with me."

Ye Ming didn't ask why, he just said respectfully.

Li Zechen took a deep look at him, but didn't say anything more, you are always like this, you don't care about anything, you don't care about it.

The next day, the group set off in a mighty way.

This palace is far away from the capital, it is located in a mountain forest with hot springs, the environment is quiet, it was built by the late emperor for his queen, who was Li Zeyuan's biological mother.After the late emperor passed away successively, Li Zechen became the emperor, and this place naturally became his.

Back then Li Zechen was just an unfavored prince, the late emperor would never bring him here, only the prince and others, and Li Zechen didn't indulge in enjoyment after he became the throne, so it was his first time to come here.

Li Zechen walked here with Ye Ming, with a rare relaxed expression.

"Although my father is affectionate, he has always treated the queen with great love, so Li Zeyuan was named the prince when he was born." Li Zechen smiled lightly: "This is one of the favorite palaces of the father. Li Zeyuan is here, in his eyes, Li Zeyuan is his son, we... are just some accidents, it is impossible to threaten Li Zeyuan's status, in order to prevent us princes from having unreasonable thoughts, he has been treating us differently us."

Knowing these things, Ye Ming couldn't help but feel soft when he thought of how Li Zechen was treated in the palace. The late emperor was indeed cruel in this respect.

The son he loves the most has always been Li Zeyuan. For the other princes, if their mothers are of high status, that's all. At least they can live a comfortable and stable life, but it is too difficult for a palace girl like Li Zechen to be born.

"But I didn't blame him. The father did this for the stability of the country. If he gave each son too much hope and made them have unreasonable thoughts, the consequences of cannibalism would only be more serious. Therefore, early decision-making It’s not wrong to become a prince, but the world is unpredictable..." Li Zechen twitched his lips in self-deprecating manner, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "People always have unreasonable thoughts, and they will hope for things that are not inferior to themselves. The most difficult thing to control. For example, I am not reconciled..."

Ye Ming said slowly: "The emperor can become the emperor, it is destiny."

"Really..." Li Zechen smiled, "But I don't think there is such a thing as destiny, it's nothing more than fighting for it."

From the day I was born, from the day I became sensible, I knew that if I didn't grab it, I would have nothing... So if you want to survive and get what you want, you have to use any means.

Not only do I want to snatch the world from Li Zeyuan, I also want to snatch you from him.

They walked slowly, and unknowingly came to the place where the hot spring is. The building here is very beautiful. The cobblestone path extends to the end, and there is a circular pool. The water in the pool is steaming, like a fairyland.

Li Zechen walked over, stared blankly for a while, and then walked in directly. Probably because the stones in the pool were too slippery, he became unsteady and fell straight forward.

Ye Ming was right behind Li Zechen. Seeing that Li Zechen was about to fall inside, he rushed over to grab him without even thinking, but Li Zechen grabbed his hand and led him over, falling into the water with a plop. In the middle of the day, water sprayed everywhere, he raised his eyes worriedly, and met Li Zechen's smiling eyes.

He couldn't help being startled, and then realized that Li Zechen did it on purpose, and was about to get up and leave, but was hugged by Li Zechen.

Li Zechen rested his chin on Ye Ming's shoulder, slightly parted his lips, and whispered in his ear, "You are still the same as before."

Ye Ming's face turned red, and he turned his eyes away in embarrassment.

Li Zechen said: "I still remember the first time we met, that time I went to the lake to help my third sister pick up balls, and you were watching... I saw your eyes, and everyone laughed coldly at that time Looking at me, there is only you standing there, with a worried and anxious face, wishing to come over and pull me up, looking at me so tenderly..."

"Since that day, I will remember you."

When he said this, he didn't even call himself me.

Ye Ming's eyes were in a trance for a moment, as if he had returned to the past, and he also remembered that first meeting.But what he didn't know was that the little Li Zechen still remembered the expression in his eyes at that time...

Li Zechen added: "Later, you always spoke up for me in front of Li Zeyuan, you would smile at me, secretly find opportunities to meet me...ask me how I am doing."

Ye Ming's lips moved: "I..."

Li Zechen shook his head and smiled lowly: "I know, you don't really mean that to me. I knew it from the first time you rejected me."

At that time, I also had moments of panic, anger and confusion... At that time, I was thinking, I did everything possible to get where I am today, but found that I couldn't get what I wanted at all. No one can understand the indescribable sense of loss.

Every day and every night, I think about a person, thinking that I can't restrain myself, and finally do things that hurt others and myself.

Li Zechen stared at Ye Ming's pink lips that were stained with water, like tender flowers... He was so eager to kiss him, but this time he didn't.

If you were given another chance to choose, what would you choose?

I?Or Li Zeyuan?

I used to be sure without hesitation that you would choose me, but this time I'm not so sure.

Because you hate me now, I am no longer the person you were willing to protect, but a person who hurts and forces you.

Li Zechen closed his eyes, he let go of his hand: "Let's go back."

The room of the palace has already been cleaned in advance, and the incense is lit inside. The dishes in the evening are wild vegetables picked from the nearby mountains. In addition to the people who serve Li Zechen on weekdays, there are also some palaces that were originally taken care of by the palace here. People, some new faces.

At dusk, Li Zechen dealt with business for a while, and Ye Ming went for a walk in the courtyard alone.

There is a lush and dense bamboo forest here, Ye Ming was walking in the forest, and suddenly saw an old eunuch carrying water walking by, the old eunuch should be an old man in the palace here, Ye Ming had never seen it before.

Seeing Ye Ming approaching, he immediately put down the water in his hand, knelt on the ground and saluted him respectfully.

Ye Ming was not used to others treating him like this, so he said softly, "You don't need to be too polite, please get up."

The old eunuch stood up slowly, with a smile on his wrinkled face, and sighed: "The young master is as kind as the rumors say."

Ye Ming was taken aback, "You, have you heard of me?"

The old eunuch said: "The old slave heard what the master said. The master said that the young master is a good man, but it's a pity that he can't help himself now, which makes the master very sad."

Ye Ming felt that something was wrong, why did an old eunuch here tell him this?He said in a deep voice, "I'm going back."

The old eunuch didn't stop him, but said, "My lord, don't be afraid. This old slave is just a messenger, and I dare not hurt you. The master asked the old slave to tell you, "He misses you very much, and I can't bear to see you in such pain. Can help you... If you don't want to continue like this, I will be here at Zishi tonight, and my old friend invites you to meet."

Ye Ming's eyes were alert, he turned around and left in a hurry, he walked for a while and looked back, there was no one in the bamboo forest.

【888: No need to guess, it's from Li Zeyuan. 】

【Ye Ming: Is there any need to guess?You underestimate me so much. 】

【888:...】

[Ye Ming: But I really didn't expect that Li Zeyuan had lost a lot of energy after being locked up for a year, and he had learned to be hypocritical. I didn't know that he had such a despicable side besides being domineering... It's hard to guarantee that you'd be ashamed to say help me, obviously you want to use me^_^]

【888: Are you coming at night? 】

【Ye Ming: Of course I want to come, isn't my plan ahead just to get him to come over? 】

【888: Are you sure you want to do this?If you really met Li Zeyuan, Li Zechen would hate you. This is different from the previous temper tantrums.He has been testing you today! 】

【Ye Ming: Alright, I know it well. 】

When Ye Ming returned to the courtyard, Li Zechen seemed to have just finished his work, so he took a deep look at Ye Ming: "Where did Wen Qing go to relax?"

Ye Ming lowered his head and said, "Walk casually."

Li Zechen's hands under his sleeves were clenched slightly, disappointment flashed across his eyes, but there was no emotion on his face, but he said lightly: "It's getting late, let's rest early, tomorrow I will take you to a nearby Go around, the scenery here is beautiful."

Ye Ming felt a little uncomfortable, and didn't dare to raise his eyes to look at Li Zechen, he just said, "Yes."

At night, Li Zechen hugged Ye Ming to sleep, did not do anything, and quickly breathed evenly.

But Ye Ming couldn't fall asleep at all, he looked outside through the half-opened window, guessing that it was midnight, his face was full of violent struggle.

After a long time, he seemed to have finally made a decision, gently picked up Li Zechen's arm on his waist, and carefully sat up.

Just two simple movements made Ye Ming's nervous face turn pale. He looked carefully for a while, and after making sure that Li Zechen hadn't woken up, he quietly put on his shoes and went out.

The bamboo forest was very close to here, only separated by a wall, Ye Ming arrived soon, but unexpectedly, there was no one there.

He stood there in a daze for a moment, and suddenly felt that he was really crazy, why did he come out to see some so-called old friend, and who could help him?He actually took the risk to do such a thing... His eyes changed drastically, he turned around and was about to go back, but he was pulled into an embrace suddenly, and at the same time covered his mouth with a palm, and his warm breath fell on him. Next to his ears, a familiar deep voice sounded: "It's me."

The author has something to say: Ye Ming: The author said she wanted to leave a message, but she was embarrassed to tell everyone that I have a thick skin, so let me ask for a message for her.I thought about it, why do you say I have a thick skin?Obviously she has a thicker skin, so I want to say that everyone should not leave her alone, let her hide in the small dark room and cry miserably.

Author: =皮= (Let everyone see my [-]th style of abuse master today!)

Li Zechen: Who are you going to abuse? (draws knife)

The author knelt down with a thud: I didn't intend to abuse anyone. In fact, I am my own mother. I just want to leave a message... In order to please everyone, I even prepared the Shura field...
