Ugly Nuer

"There is a joy in the harem, why does the emperor summon his ministers instead of comforting the ladies?"

Chen Rong kowtowed to salute, then straightened his back and looked at him, his eyes were full of sarcasm, he was not happy in his heart, what Xuanyuan Lin did in the past seemed to be deeply attached to him, even if he didn't like it in his heart, it might attract the emperor's attention It's always a matter of self-satisfaction to please.

But as soon as I entered the Hanlin Academy today, I heard someone say that there was good news from the harem that Concubine Yu was pregnant with a dragon seed, and now the entire Lu family was overjoyed, and wanted to enter the palace to greet Concubine Yu, but was stopped by Xuanyuanlin's decree , does not require others to be too extravagant for this.

Chen Rong only felt as if he had been slapped by someone, his face was burning with pain, and he felt embarrassed. Xuanyuan Lin talked to himself about the romance, but at the same time, he did not forget to be lingering with the concubines in the harem... When he was who? !

He remembered what Cheng Huan said here that day, that Xuanyuan Lin didn't really have much sincerity towards him?

It's just that you want to try a man because you're used to seeing charming women?

The more Chen Rong thought about it, the angrier he became, he felt humiliated so thoroughly that he couldn't even hold a pen with trembling hands, and was given a severe lesson by the sixth-grade waiter above him.

He was full of anger, even though he was angry, he still wanted to go to Xuanyuan Lin for an explanation, but he hadn't spared time here, and news spread from the Hu family that the concubine Yuan in the palace was also pregnant.

Chen Rong was dizzy with anger, Xuanyuan Lin really didn't take him seriously at all, since he wants to make a lifelong commitment with himself, at least show some sincerity, is it so difficult to bear it?

As soon as Chen Rong thought of Xuanyuan Lin's deeds in person and in reverse, he became disgusted in his heart, and immediately gave up the idea of ​​seeking an explanation.

It has not been easy for the harem to be pregnant since ancient times, let alone both of them are pregnant, Chen Rong feels that Xuanyuan Lin must have worked hard every night these days.

Remembering that he had held his hand before, he couldn't help trembling violently.

Just at this time, a little eunuch came outside, saying that Xuanyuan Lin was talking to him in the imperial study, and Chen Rong took an idle book to read, and sneered: "I still have some errands to do, so I can't go to the imperial study."

He really didn't want to see Xuanyuan Lin today. On the one hand, he felt disgusted with him, and on the other hand, he was afraid that if he could not suppress his temper, he would really offend him and be punished by him.

But the servant came three times in a row, even though he didn't want to move, he was still kicked out by the grand scholar.

When he was young, he was convicted because of the elders in his family, and he never felt the benefits of power. He only saw those down-and-out nobles in his family, and everyone's faces were bitter and mean.

Because he is very resistant to the officials in the court, and even has the high nine-five-year honor.

He thought he was let down, and was born sharp and rebellious. Even if he faced Xuanyuan Lin, he should be justified, but the other party was sitting on the dragon chair, looking at him silently with his eyes down, which made him nervous for no reason. When I got up, my chest felt tight, and I couldn't breathe.

Xuanyuan Lin stood up slowly, with a serious expression on his face: "Zhen, I never lied to you."

Although Chen Rong's scalp was numb, he still couldn't help sneering. If he hadn't cheated, where did these two children come from?

Xuanyuan Lin saw what was in his heart, pursed his lips tightly and said nothing, but sat back slowly: "I see that you are not feeling well, go back and rest."

Chen Rong snorted, saluted as usual, then turned around and strode out.

Xuanyuan Lin looked at his back with a gloomy face. Chen Rong was angry as he expected. He intended to comfort him with soft words, but the words were on his lips, but he couldn't speak them out.

He sighed, relaxed his body and leaned back on the chair, raised his hand and rubbed his eyes.

The little eunuch came in to report that His Royal Highness the Xian Wang asked to see him, Xuanyuan Lin waved his hand to let people in, and Xuanyuan Jing laughed as soon as he entered the palace: "I heard that Concubine Yu and Concubine Yuan are pregnant one after another, is this true?"

Seeing him so happy, Xuanyuan Lin relaxed, "Of course it's true, I'm watching the imperial doctor's pulse... Tong Shi is also right."

Xuanyuan Jing strode up, raised her hand and patted Xuanyuan Lin's shoulder: "Okay, okay, our Dachang finally has a queen."

Xuanyuan Lin frowned: "You only know how to coax the courtiers and urge me to go to the harem every day, why don't you know how to marry a wife?"

Xuanyuan Jing waved his hand: "That's all, don't be in a hurry, when the prince is older, I won't be too late to mention the marriage."

Xuanyuan Lin paused, turned his head and sighed, and suddenly remembered something: "Brother Huang said before that if there is happiness in the harem, he will promise me one thing."

Xuanyuan Jing couldn't help laughing: "What I say will naturally count... But you want to give that person a title? You can just rest assured that the courtiers have a way to stop their mouths."

Xuanyuan Lin smiled wryly: "Now he's probably not willing."

"But because the concubine is pregnant? Is he so ignorant?"

Xuanyuan Jing was a little surprised, he only remembered that Cheng Huan had a weird temper, although he was stingy, he was still honest and kind. In the past, although he had troubles with the Xian Wang's mansion, he only went to Chen Rong. Kneeling, and sending other servants out, he never implicated others.

Xuanyuanlin sighed: "Just now he didn't even want to say a few more words with me."

"The minister went to persuade him, Cheng Huan is only young, as long as his mind is pure and kind, he is still good..."

Xuanyuan Lin was taken aback: "Cheng Huan? What's the matter with Cheng Huan?"

Xuanyuanjing was also stunned: "Who else could it be if it's not Cheng Huan? Your sweetheart... someone else?"

Xuanyuan Lin didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Zhen...how could he fall in love with him, he is just a slave...brother Huang, you have been idle for too long, your eyesight is too poor."

"not him?"

Xuanyuanjing couldn't believe it, who else could it be if it wasn't Cheng Huan?

His face was full of bewilderment, Xuanyuan Lin's ears turned red, and he coughed in embarrassment: "It's... Chen Rong, Chen Rong from your house."

Xuanyuan Jing only felt that her ears were ringing, and subconsciously raised her hand to rub her ears: "What did you say? Who?"

"You heard it right, it's Chen Rong, you came here just now, didn't you see him on the way?"

Xuanyuanjing opened his mouth, looked at Xuanyuanlin and said nothing for a long time: "How could you... You have only met a few times, why... Feelings are not a joke, Your Majesty, have you thought about it clearly?"

"Now it's up to him to see if he will."

Xuanyuan Jing looked at him, and saw that he was serious, obviously not joking, sighed and walked up and down in the imperial study: "Although the words are said by the minister, the minister cannot agree to this right now."

Xuanyuan Lin frowned, Xuanyuan Jing didn't give him a chance to speak: "Chen Rong is no better than Cheng Huan, he is an official, but anyone who enters an official will have ambitions, put him by your side, the harem will not be peaceful .”

"You have such a close relationship with him, why do you say that about him?"

Xuanyuan Lin was not very happy, but he knew that Xuanyuan Jing was not a person who talked nonsense, so he had no choice but to listen to him continue.

"Your Majesty, if the Emperor doesn't like to listen...you should listen to it. Chen Rong grew up with you. When he was young, Xiaosan came to find him for fun. Chen Rong smashed his head. He said it was a mistake, but I saw it with my own eyes, he did it on purpose."

Xuanyuan Lin's face turned serious, the little San whom Xuanyuan Jing said was their third younger brother, named Xuanyuan Jue, a serious royal blood, just because he was raised by the empress dowager's side, he was not close to them, after the empress dowager passed away, he invited himself Going to guard the spirit is also to prevent him from secretly killing him.

"I remember that the Empress Dowager was very angry about this matter. The Concubine Gui and Concubine Cheng went to the Empress Dowager to plead guilty, but the empress dowager's anger was not appeased. In the end, it was the father-in-law who came forward and granted him the throne early, and finally calmed down the matter."

Xuanyuanjing sighed: "That's right, he wasn't vicious, but he wanted to take revenge because he was bullied and scolded by the mistress as a prince. If there was a fight in the harem, his temper would be bloody." wind."

What he said was to ask Xuanyuan Lin to think twice, but the other party thought wrongly, and soon remembered that Cheng Huan humiliated Chen Rong in the Xian Wang Mansion that day. If Chen Rong gained power, Cheng Huan... what would happen?

He thought of the servant's pale face lying on the ground, unable to get up, and his heart trembled.

"Brother Wang is right, this matter...let's discuss it later."

Xuanyuan Jing saw that he was frowning tightly, looking very sad, and felt a little distressed: "This matter is not completely impossible...Let's wait for the minister to think carefully, and wait until the prince is born, and then it will not be too late."

Xuanyuan Lin nodded: "I'm sorry, Brother Huang."

"The minister bears the emperor's call, brother, so naturally he will do his best and die."

He shook his head and resigned, but he still felt unbelievable in his heart, how could it be Chen Rong that Xuanyuan Lin had his eyes on?

Of these two people, one has been in a high position for a long time and has always been used to being accommodated, and does not know how to understand other people's feelings, and the other is arrogant and arrogant, how could these two get together?

He felt a headache just thinking about it. He couldn't imagine their future anyway. It was a bit complicated to leave the palace and order someone to guard it in the Imperial Academy. If Chen Rong came out, he would bring him back. He felt that You should have a good talk with him.

Although Chen Rong was regarded as an elder according to his seniority, Xuanyuan Jing always taught him on weekdays. When encountering this kind of thing, his mentality was like seeing his own dude molesting a good girl.

Chen Rong didn't come back until night, his expression was the same as usual, Xuanyuanjing was a little uncertain about her mind, he never mentioned his thoughts about the emperor, even when he was summoned to the imperial study, his expression was indifferent, not much joy.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem like you are tempted by Xuanyuan Lin.

"Why is your Highness looking at me like that?"

Chen Rong moved his neck uncomfortably, and turned his head slightly, he was a little ashamed by Xuanyuan Jing.

"Today, the emperor said something personal to me."

He deliberated when he spoke, Chen Rong frowned when he heard the word "Emperor", and let out a low-interest voice.

Xuanyuanjing licked his lips: "If the emperor wants you to enter the palace... would you be willing?"

Chen Rong stood up abruptly: "He can't even think about it! What does he think of me? I am a disciple of the Confucian Mansion, how can...how can..."

Xuanyuan Jing guessed this result, but became more and more puzzled: "Then why are you so close to him? Although he has a domineering temper, he will not force others to make things difficult for him."

Chen Rong looked at him in shock: "What do you mean? Do you think I'm trying to flatter you?"

Xuanyuan Jing waved his hand, not wanting to argue with him: "Let's have dinner first, this matter needs to be discussed in the long run, it is related to the emperor, if there is a little carelessness, my virtuous king's mansion will be reduced to ruins."

Chen Rong froze, and couldn't help but gritted his teeth: "Don't worry, it won't happen."
