I saw Xiao Yulan's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and her eyes were red with anger.

Eunuch Li has been by Xiao Yulan's side for more than ten years, and he has never seen him with such an expression, as if he wants to kill all the people in the world, with deep hatred, and there is also a sour smell of unknown meaning, which may overturn the old vinegar.

This is not difficult to understand. Shen Ruqing is willing to enter the palace to become a concubine, but she should be clean, abide by the three obediences and four virtues, and devote herself to doing things for His Majesty. How can she make an excuse to meet courtiers?Or a figure who has been on the cusp recently.

Eunuch Li thought of Xiao Yulan's importance to Luo Wenge, and remembered Luo Wenge's blushing cheeks when he left the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and suddenly he doubted himself.

If His Majesty is really jealous, which one is it?

Eunuch Li didn't dare to talk rashly, but it would be unseemly to follow Xiao Yulan here, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and said very softly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, if we stay out for too long, I might make people suspicious."

Xiao Yulan's heart was turbulent like a storm, she refused to say a word, although her hands creaked, she still resisted the urge to rush in and execute Luo Wenge and Shen Ruqing on the spot.

He thought, we can't just let Luo Wenge die like that, it's still useful to keep it.

What's the use, are you mad at yourself?

Standing on the back of the rockery, Xiao Yulan became more and more angry as she thought about it. Knowing that she couldn't see where Luo Wenge was, she still looked away. The depths of her eyes were full of anger, and she would never meet again. Luo Wenge really felt that she couldn't leave. Did you drive him?

Xiao Yulan took one more look, turned around and left gracefully, then wait and see.

Eunuch Li was taken aback by Xiao Yulan's silent action, thinking about whether to report this matter to the queen.

His Majesty's closest person now is the Empress, seeing Concubine Shen and his recently trusted courtiers having private meetings, and no one to enlighten him, Eunuch Li was very worried that Xiao Yulan would suffer from illness, and it would be much better to have someone with him.

Leaving the imperial garden, Xiao Yulan didn't show any anger or anger: "I'm rotten in my stomach. If you want a third person to know, Eunuch Li, your grave will be full of flowers next year."

Eunuch Li was so frightened that he knelt down on the ground and expressed his loyalty with trembling voices: "Your Majesty, don't worry, this old slave will definitely bring this matter into the coffin, otherwise this old slave will have a terrible death."

"Get up." Xiao Yulan stopped and looked towards the brightly lit Hall of Peace, her eyes narrowed slightly, "Let people guard the imperial garden, don't let people disturb them."

Eunuch Li got up and looked at him with puzzled eyes, not knowing what the intention was.

Xiao Yulan picked up the jade pendant on her belt to play with carefully, and said contemptuously: "Do as I say."

"Yes." Eunuch Li replied lightly.

Luo Wenge followed the rockery, only to find that there was a cave inside, it was very wide and high, and the starlight poured down from the intersecting mountain streams, falling on the two of them, adding a few strands of coolness.

Shen Ruqing, who was walking in front, stood in the twilight, looking at him with affection, those eyes were much more lively than Luo Wenge's usually, implying charm.

He was unmoved, turned his gaze away after seeing it, and said in a businesslike tone, "Can Concubine Shen Gui talk now?"

"It's not your nature to be so eager. In the past, when I wanted to see you, you were always gentle and patient. Whatever I wanted to talk about, you would go along with me." Shen Ruqing complained while clutching the handkerchief.

Luo Wenge looked at her for a long time, then suddenly laughed: "Concubine Shen, you also said that it was in the past. At that time, you were the jewel in Shen Ge's palm, and you were the young lady who had not left the cabinet. Today is different from the past. You are already famous. Concubine Shen Gui in the harem has different identities, and our relationship is also different, if I still treat you according to the previous attitude, I'm afraid it will be a long life."

"If I had a choice, I would like to marry you and be a good wife and helper." Shen Ruqing wiped the corners of her eyes and said with a hint of tears, "But His Majesty ordered me to enter the palace. The destiny cannot be violated, and my father also He is just an elder, but he is a minister after all, and a minister cannot be rebellious, for the sake of the Shen family, I have no choice."

Luo Wenge took two steps in front of Shen Ruqing: "If Imperial Concubine Shen wants to reminisce about the old days with my minister, forgive me for being rude, and leave first."

Originally thought that Shen Ruqing would say something useful, but who knew that what she heard when she came in was still love for children.He left the banquet quietly, and if someone noticed, he might be giving someone some excuses for no reason, Luo Wenge felt agitated for a moment.

"Don't you feel that you are not appreciated by your majesty, that your knowledge is useless?" Seeing that he really wanted to leave, Shen Ruqing threw out a bait in time.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Luo Wenge stopped.

Shen Ruqing bit her lip and itched her teeth in anger. Luo Wenge had indeed changed, she no longer treated her as before, and had no affection in her eyes at all, looking at her as if she was looking at flowers, plants and trees.

Or is it that what that person said is the truth, the reason why Luo Wenge was willing to meet her earlier, because she was the daughter of Shen Jue, the chief assistant of the cabinet, was the reason why she was cited as a confidant?

Shen Ruqing turned to look at Luo Wenge with a calm expression, and said: "I know someone, he admires you very much, and wanted to meet you many times, but suffered from no chance, this time he finally came to Beijing, and wanted to drink and chat with you, Let’s discuss big things together.”

Luo Wenge's brows moved slightly, and he slowly laid a trap: "I don't know who this person Shen Guifei is talking about?"

"I promise him that he will not reveal his identity until the matter is completed." Shen Ruqing said, "This person is an old acquaintance with me. Go and meet him, I believe there will be unexpected gains."

In the inner courtyard of the palace, where did she get an old acquaintance?

Luo Wenge's thoughts moved slightly, thinking of a possibility: "Concubine Shen Gui is trying to build a bridge for my minister's future?"

Shen Ruqing admitted it quite happily: "Yes, I have nothing to hide from you. Before introducing him to you, I took a risk and tried it. If you can cooperate with him, you will be able to worship him in the future. When I was young, a wandering Taoist once said that I was born rich and noble, and I was extremely accurate. I have never failed since I was a child. This is a great opportunity. I can't bear to see you Xiao Yulan oppressed, Luo Lang, can you feel my sincerity?"

Really insincerely, Luo Wenge really didn't feel it, he felt that Shen Ruqing was seriously ill.

Before she said something more absurd, Luo Wenge interrupted first: "You asked me to join others to stir up the court, causing the Ning Dynasty to be in turmoil. It's best to change the emperor?"

Shen Ruqing's eyes lit up, and she restrained her excitement and said, "I thought that since Xiao Yulan doesn't appreciate you, he is blind, and Jiangshan won't last long in the hands of a blind man."

Shen Ruqing's whole heart for him is really touching, it would be even better if the play could be more realistic, Luo Wenge sighed softly.

"Luo Lang, why are you sighing?" Shen Ruqing couldn't help but stepped forward, wanting to get closer to him.

When Shen Ruqing came over, Luo Wenge naturally backed away: "It's nothing, I also want to thank Concubine Shen for being so considerate of my minister, hereby I would like to thank Concubine Shen for her kindness."

"Luo Lang—"

"Also," Luo Wenge raised his eyes sharply, his eyes were as sharp as a sharp knife that kills without blood, and sealed Shen Ruqing's words, he said coldly, "Please Shen Guifei, please don't call your ministers so intimately in the future, people will lose their heads if they hear it For such an important matter, the imperial concubine please respect yourself."

Shen Ruqing's throat choked, and her tone sounded extremely sad: "Okay, for you, I can promise anything, only one thing, don't refuse the kindness I have prepared for you, I will let Huamei find a way to deliver the meeting place with that person Dejitang, you must go and have a look, okay?"

Of course Luo Wenge wanted to take a look, but he wanted to see who this person Shen Ruqing praised so much was really strange, the throne that Xiao Yulan was sitting on was really so attractive?

All forces are revolving around this seemingly glamorous position, and now there are ups and downs, Xiao Yulan is under a lot of pressure, and he is not easy.

Thinking of this, he glanced at Shen Ruqing eagerly: "Thank you Concubine Shen, I will consider it, the night dew is very cold, Concubine Shen should go back earlier, I will leave."

Shen Ruqing frowned, feeling that I was looking at him pitifully, wanting to say something to persuade him but didn't dare, so he could only watch him go away.

After there was no one else around, Shen Ruqing's face darkened, and she shouted in a low voice: "Come out!"

"The ex-lover didn't care about you, and after making you angry, you came to me to vent your anger." The man came out from the corner of the mountain, put his arms around Shen Ruqing's shoulders, and laughed in a low voice, "I'm not angry, who made Master Luo act like that?" Grace, even if you don't give him a good face, it's still pleasing to the eye, don't say you can't bear to lose your temper at him, if it were me, I wouldn't."

"Stop talking sarcastic." Shen Ruqing patted the man's hand away, her expression becoming more and more displeased.

"You don't let me talk, so you just let me do my best?" The man said with a smirk.

Shen Ruqing frowned: "Speak seriously, what is your master going to do? If you give him the address and he doesn't go to meet you, your situation will be dangerous, and your master may be found out by him. This move is too risky. , he is not an ordinary person, how could I be able to move him with a few words?"

"You and him have made a private decision for life, and you can't blow the pillow wind?" The man was surprised.

Shen Ruqing smiled sarcastically: "You think too much."

If she really got to that point with Luo Wenge, Shen Jue would have killed her directly, everything was just a plan.

Luo Wenge left the imperial garden, and then quietly returned to the Hall of Peace. The atmosphere in the hall was as lively as before, cups and cups were intertwined, and it was unknown who was drunk.

He lifted up his clothes and sat down, poured wine and drank a few cups to drive away the cold air in his body, and then looked at the scene in the hall, only to find that Xiao Yulan was gone, and King Yun who was sitting there was also gone, who is there?

He turned around and waved to Luo An, Luo An came over with small steps.

"Where's Your Majesty?" he asked.

Luo An almost whispered: "The Empress is not feeling well and is coughing up blood. Your Majesty is very distressed. He took people back to Fengqi Palace and let all the adults feel free. If anyone is drunk and unwilling to leave, just let Eunuch Li arrange it under the side hall." , It’s okay to leave the palace tomorrow.”

Luo Wenge's brows twitched suddenly, and he suppressed his heart palpitations: "What about King Yun?"

"Leave first with too much alcohol, Your Majesty's permission." Luo An replied.

With Xiao Yulan's verbal orders, Luo Wenge also had the intention of retiring, seeing about Shen Ruqing tonight, he had to talk to Xiao Yulan and discuss countermeasures.

Thinking of this, Luo Wenge drank a few more glasses of wine, pinched the bridge of his nose pretending to be uncomfortable, stood up with the help of the table, staggered a few times, and was so startled that Luo An quickly stepped forward to help him: "Master, are you alright?"

"It's okay." Luo Wenge forced a smile, his face turned pale, "Perhaps he drank too much wine and felt dizzy. Luo An, where is Eunuch Li?"

Luo An helped him to walk towards the gate of the hall: "Eunuch Li is waiting at the gate, the young master wants to go home?"

"Well, talk to Eunuch Li." Luo Wenge said, half-closed his eyes and looked towards the door, and sure enough he saw Eunuch Li standing there standing upright.

Luo An understood his intention, so he stopped talking.

Luo Wenge pretended to be overwhelmed with alcohol, and when he saw Eunuch Li, he put on a smile: "Eunuch Li, I drank too much, I feel a little uncomfortable, I want to go first."

Eunuch Li smiled and said in a talkative tone: "Master Luo is polite, your majesty has something to say first, and you can follow the adults' wishes."

Luo Wenge thanked again and again: "Thank you, father-in-law."

Eunuch Li flicked his fly whisk and asked the little eunuch to hand over a lantern: "Master Luo, please help yourself."

"Thank you, father-in-law." Luo Wenge asked Luo An to take the lantern, and wrote to Eunuch Li, his figure swayed slightly, as if he was really drunk.

Eunuch Li smiled kindly, watching his master and servant gradually walk away with a paper lantern, a murderous intent flashed in his slightly cloudy but not confused eyes.

After leaving the palace gate and getting into his own carriage, Luo Wenge leaned on the soft pillow, reading the latest news by the dim candlelight.

"My lord, are you still dizzy?" Luo An asked.

Luo Wenge lightly put the finished letter on the candlelight, quietly watching the flames quickly devour the yellowish paper, and asked in a deep voice, "Luo An, how much do you know about Tan Yu?"

"Not much, I know that he is a loner, relying on his own strength to become the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, so it is difficult for him to be qualified for a greater official position, just because there is no one in the court." Luo An said.

Luo Wenge murmured: "Then what if this is an illusion?"

"Illusion, my lord is saying that Tan Yu's background found in the building is fake?" Luo An asked with a confused expression, "Linjiang Tower is recognized as the most accurate source of information in Jianghu, if Tan Yu really has the ability to deceive Let's, what is he planning?"

"Tu's family background is clean, easy to be trusted by all parties." Luo Wenge looked at Luo An with a smile in his eyes.

Luo An slowly opened his eyes.

There's no need for Luo Wenge to tell Luo An about these things, too many words are wrong, if you want Luo An to know too much about Tan Yu, if you see someone later, you might lose the chain.He stopped talking, and Liu Luo'an scratched his heart and lungs, wanting to ask but dare not.

Back in Luo Mansion, Luo Wenge asked Luo An to rest, and under the cover of night, he left again through the back door and went straight to Fengqi Palace.

Luo Wenge went to Fengqi Palace, but he didn't see Xiao Yulan. He first felt the coldness of the room, which was different from the past. It was like thousands of knives waiting for him, and the tip of the knives was poisoned. This feeling came from inexplicable. , Comfortable people do not feel the severe cold in winter.

He took two steps towards the door, but still saw no one, not to mention Xiao Yulan was not there, even Zooey who was usually waiting by the door to put on a show was not there.

It was almost midnight, where did people go?

Luo Wenge returned to the room and took off the fox fur. Just as his hands were on the buttons of the official uniform, the door creaked, and then Xiao Yulan's voice was heard: "Wait, I'll take a look at the queen."

He curled his fingers a few times, and buttoned the button that he had finally untied, and turned to look at the man who came in through the bead curtain.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say."

Xiao Yulan's expression was indifferent, she lifted her clothes and sat down, glanced at him expressionlessly, and showed no desire to respond to her gestures.

Luo Wenge frowned slightly, what's wrong?

It hasn't been a day since the two quarreled and reconciled, so why did it get awkward again?

It is said that being with you is like being with a tiger, the ancients never deceived me, look at Xiao Yulan's elusive temperament, Luo Wenge didn't drink with peanuts, and he was quite drunk.

Xiao Yulan ignored him, so he simply stopped talking, turned his back to the black-faced man, took off his official uniform, and planned to go to bed early, because he wanted to talk to Tan Yu tomorrow, what if he wasn't in a good mood?

In all fairness, seeing Luo Wenge's nonchalant appearance, Xiao Yulan was extremely annoyed inside, so he pretended to be indifferent and ignored him. He thought that Luo Wenge would continue talking, but the other party's temper was also very quick, and he turned around and turned around and stopped talking.

Xiao Yulan peeked at Luo Wenge several times, and found that he really didn't intend to continue talking, so she couldn't help feeling depressed.

Why on earth did he meet Shen Ruqing behind his back?Is it obsessive or ulterior motives?

These questions bothered Xiao Yulan, making people restless and disturbed, and they just wanted to catch Luo Wenge and ask them clearly.

But the dignity of the emperor made Xiao Yulan unable to let go of her airs, let alone ask questions about such a young daughter's family, so she could only make things difficult for herself, making the scene extremely boring.

At the moment when Xiao Yulan was analyzing herself, Luo Wenge had already taken off her official uniform and was sitting on the edge of the bed, bending over to take off her shoes, obviously her next step was to go to bed.

If you want to miss the opportunity to talk tonight, not tomorrow, not tonight, Xiao Yulan didn't want to blow himself up, so he said with a stern face, "Wait a minute."

Luo Wenge stopped taking off his shoes, raised his eyes to look at Xiao Yulan, raised his eyebrows lightly, and teased a little: "Your Majesty is willing to talk to me?"

"You change into the queen's regular clothes and go to Huachao Pond with me." Xiao Yulan said.

Ordinary methods are useless to Luo Wenge, why not use something else.Xiao Yulan asked Xie Wenxuan, under what circumstances would it be most likely to chat openly?

At that time, Xie Wenxuan talked about soaking in hot springs, paired with a cup of sake, and drank a few glasses, and the words in his heart came out naturally.

The way of apologizing last night was still working, Xiao Yulan planned to try this again.

Luo Wenge put his hands on his knees and looked at Xiao Yulan with a delicate expression: "Your Majesty, it's late at night."

"I know." Xiao Yulan sullenly glanced at him with disgust, "You have been out for a long time today, so you have to wash well before you can go to bed."

It turned out that he disliked him for being dirty, Luo Wenge pursed his lower lip, originally wanted to say something to Xiao Yulan, but thought that soaking in the hot spring would relieve his fatigue, so he shut up and went to get his clothes.

Seeing this, Xiao Yulan fiddled with the beads back and forth twice, as long as he was willing to go to the hot spring, Hua Chaochi's preparations would come in handy, and he would be able to know what he wanted to know.

Luo Wenge didn't know the turbulent waves hidden behind this hot spring bath, he didn't take it to heart, his mind was full of thoughts about how to tell Xiao Yulan about meeting Shen Ruqing.

Huachao Pool is a hot spring pool in the hall. The hall is resplendent and resplendent, with boulders piled up beside the pool, and flowers and plants are not far away.

Luo Wenge entered the palace with airs, when a maid came over spontaneously and wanted to take off his outer clothes, but he hid him, Xiao Yulan saw her at a glance, her face was slightly displeased, and she said in a deep voice: "Everyone go out, I want to be at ease with the empress point."

As soon as the maid and the little father-in-laws left, Zooey put the wine ordered by Xiao Yulan by the pool and left.

For a moment, there were only the two of them left in the big hall, Luo Wenge relaxed his tense back and rubbed his arms: "I'm really tired."

Xiao Yulan glanced at him, and went to take off her outer clothes to get into the water. Xiao Yulan looked natural and generous, and didn't mind other people around at all.

Before coming to soak in the hot spring, Luo Wenge didn't think about it at all. At this time, out of the corner of his eye, he caught Xiao Yulan's half-naked upper body, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, as if the spacious hall suddenly became cramped, reminding him involuntarily of last night. The warm embrace, the strong arms, and the soft fingertips touched during the day, the peaceful and peaceful atmosphere around him changed according to his thoughts.

A little uncomfortable, a little awkward and ambiguous that can't be pointed out.

He rubbed his temples and sneered softly, what was he thinking?

Probably because I drank too much wine at the dinner party, and now it was steamed out by the heat, so that my brain was wandering and thinking wildly, giving birth to some strange thoughts that shouldn't be there.

"Is the queen waiting for me to serve you in person?" Xiao Yulan rang out in a low and deep voice, rubbing against the fluffy white gauze and jumping into Luo Wenge's ears, which made him feel a slight strangeness in his heart.

"Don't dare to bother Your Majesty, I'll come right away." Luo Wenge responded.

After a while, Luo Wenge, who took off his outer clothes, got out of the hot spring pool, sat two arms away from Xiao Yulan, leaning against the wall with his half-closed eyes soaking.

Xiao Yulan's mind was not on the hot spring, but on Luo Wenge, but the other party couldn't feel it, it seemed that she really came to relieve her fatigue.

Xiao Yulan frowned, the irritability in her heart was about to push him into a flower, the more quiet she was, the more she wanted to talk.

The surroundings were silent for a long time, Xiao Yulan couldn't hold back anymore, raised her hand to pat the water, the sound of the water caused Luo Wenge to open his eyes, the peach blossom eyes that were hazy and glowing with water were the most alluring, one glance made one's heart moist.

Xiao Yulan's throat moved slightly and her throat felt dry, she frowned and looked away.

His performance is obvious enough, does Luo Wenge understand?

Luo Wenge didn't understand, but he still said: "Your Majesty, I met Shen Ruqing tonight."

"What did you see her for?" Xiao Yulan turned her head, her tone was not very kind.

Luo Wenge didn't notice the sourness in Xiao Yulan's tone, so she focused on business: "She said she found someone for me who would allow me to realize my ambition, and she wanted me to meet."

Xiao Yulan sneered: "Another poacher?"

Luo Wenge was startled, then smiled and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, business is still about first-come-first-served, and I'm also a principled person. The reason why I agreed to meet with you is purely because I want to know how to deal with the situation other than the two forces in the court and the vassal king." , who else wants to fish in troubled waters."

Xiao Yulan felt that Luo Wenge didn't understand the point of that sentence just now, but it didn't matter, he put his hands on the bank and sat up straight: "You just go and see, I want to know how he will win you over."

"Perhaps it is similar to the conditions promised by King Yun." Luo Wenge scooped up a handful of water, his fingers loosened, and let the water slide along his fingers and finally fall into the pool. He lowered his eyes and looked at the turbulent water surface, "In their eyes, I'm just a talent who can make a difference."

Xiao Yulan turned her eyes slightly to look at him without taking her eyes off.

No one understands the ability of the person in front of him better than Xiao Yulan. Apart from being a general and a prime minister, he is also expected to be an emperor.That's all from the previous life.

Judging from the experience in this life so far, Luo Wenge doesn't have the intention of being an emperor, and is more concerned with doing things for himself.

Xiao Yulan still had doubts in her heart, why a person who was clearly capable of being an emperor didn't do that in this life and was willing to help her.

If it was the crime of deceiving the emperor by pretending to be the queen on the wedding night, with Luo Wenge's current power, it was enough for him to feign death and escape. Could it be that he didn't do that, did he really want to help himself?

After trying to give Luo Wenge trust, and seeing him meeting Shen Ruqing in private tonight, questions that Xiao Yulan had deliberately forgotten before surfaced one after another, tricky from every angle, making that thin layer of trust crumbling.

"I have to clarify that nothing wrong with Concubine Shen happened tonight." Luo Wenge still remembered that this was something Xiao Yulan was extremely taboo about, explaining that he didn't want the relationship between the two of them to become tense.

But Luo Wenge vaguely felt that he had screwed up, because Xiao Yulan's expression didn't look calm, there was a little bit of jealousy in his annoyance, his heart beat a few beats apart, and if he was really angry, it didn't seem easy to coax.

Although Luo Wenge didn't feel that he had done anything wrong, he was still a little worried.

Xiao Yulan repeatedly warned himself not to show any skepticism, to be natural, but... things backfired, and he said forcefully: "I have no feelings for Shen Ruqing. At that time, there was nothing I could do to make her a noble concubine. When the court cleans up, it will happen naturally." Send her out of the palace."

Luo Wenge listened seriously, without taking it to heart, only thinking that Xiao Yulan was convincing himself, he said, "What about Xu Jinyuan?"

Xiao Yulan frowned, and her tone became even more blunt: "Master Luo has no feelings for Shen Ruqing, and is he looking at a weak and sick beauty?"

Luo Wenge felt sour when he heard these words, as if he was jealous, probably Xiao Yulan still had some affection for Xu Jinyuan.

He slid a little into the water, and said with a light smile, "Your Majesty was joking, when the matter is over, I will send Xu Jinyuan back intact as agreed."

"When did I make such an agreement with you?" Xiao Yulan asked.

Luo Wenge said in surprise, "It's just—"

"In my opinion, it would be better for you to simply send Xu Jinyuan away." Xiao Yulan looked at him, her eyes were still too domineering through the curling water vapor, and Luo Wenge's heart trembled as she watched.

Luo Wenge looked away, didn't dare to continue looking at Xiao Yulan, didn't follow up on what he said, and got back to business: "I suspect that the person Shen Ruqing wants me to meet has something to do with King Yun."

Xiao Yulan gave a soft 'hmm'.

"Your Majesty had planned to kill Lord Li tonight?" Luo Wenge asked.

Xiao Yulan's mind was still on his love for Xu Jinyuan, and when she heard the question, she said absent-mindedly: "No, I will use it temporarily, someone has prepared a knife for me, it would be too disrespectful for me not to use it."

In other words, the jugglers tonight were let go by others. It was a good way to provoke a confrontation between Xiao Yulan and Shen Jue, and the hand was really long enough.

Luo Wenge pondered: "If it wasn't for His Majesty's premeditated plan, it would be too early to offend Shen Ge."

"It doesn't matter, the people behind King Yun want both me and Shen Ge to be hurt. Do you think the feudal lords are really on my side when they declare their position at the banquet? Actually, they want to hide behind me and watch the show, and wait until I don't take advantage of it." Value is kicked away again, they are all old foxes, they have no sincerity." Xiao Yulan came back to her senses and replied, disturbed by the relationship between Shen Ruqing and Xu Jinyuan and him, she couldn't calm down and talk about business, and asked abruptly, "Are you really right? Shen Ruqing didn't feel it, so did Xu Jinyuan?"

Luo Wenge was at a loss: "What does Your Majesty mean?"

"I just want to know if you have a woman you like." Xiao Yulan said confidently.

Luo Wenge looked at Xiao Yulan, but he didn't let people guess: "No, and there is no man he likes. Don't worry, Your Majesty, before the big event is completed, I will not be affected by the private affairs of my sons and daughters."

He privately thought that Xiao Yulan asked this because he was worried that his mind would be unstable.

In the current situation, as long as there is someone who can take his heart, it will definitely become his weakness.

Once a person has a weakness, he is no longer invulnerable, let alone desperate for life.

Luo Wenge thought about the matter very clearly, but he didn't know that his words pierced into Xiao Yulan's heart, leaving an unfathomable wound.

Xiao Yulan knew that he saw Shen Ruqing for the sake of the overall situation, and he had personally admitted that he had no one he liked for the time being, so he should be at ease, but why did Xiao Yulan feel the astringent and sour bitter taste rising in his chest? It was so complicated that Xiao Yulan could not understand understand.

"Your Majesty?" Luo Wenge called softly.

Xiao Yulan raised her eyes and looked over: "Huh?"

"It's late at night, it's not suitable to soak in hot springs for a long time, you should go back to bed." Luo Wenge said.

It is good to soak in hot springs in cold winter, but we should also pay attention to the time.

Xiao Yulan looked at the unmoving wine cup not far behind him, lowered her eyes to cover her self-deprecating smile, got up and went to the shore: "Then let's go back."

Luo Wenge's gaze followed Xiao Yulan, could it be an illusion, he always felt that His Majesty was very distraught, like a child who didn't get his favorite toy.Realizing what he was thinking, Luo Wenge shook his head, being suspicious.

The two of them returned to Fengqi Palace and had nothing to say all night.

The next morning Luo Wenge took Luo An to Dali Temple on duty, when he entered the courtyard and saw Tan Yu waiting at the door, he turned his head and said, "You go to Deji Hall."

Luo An glanced at Tan Yu: "Yes."

After Luo An left, Luo Wenge walked over.

Seeing him, Tan Yu's face showed joy, and he said urgently, "My lord, you are here."

"Tan Changshi didn't sleep well last night?" Luo Wenge asked.

Tan Yu looked haggard, his eyes were turning blue and black, and the stubble on his chin appeared. He was neatly dressed, but he couldn't hide his anxiety and suffering.

Tan Yu touched his face subconsciously, lacking in energy: "This subordinate thanked you for your concern. To be honest, this subordinate has been thinking about what your lord said that day, and was inspired. I have some thoughts in my heart that I want to confide in. I don't know if my lord is willing to listen. ?”

Is this planning to come over and surrender, and let me know the news along the way?

Luo Wenge walked into the house: "It's cold outside, why don't Tan Changshi come in and say it."

A gleam flashed in Tan Yu's eyes, and she hurriedly bowed her head as a gesture of gratitude: "I thank you for your compassion, but it's disrespectful."

Luo Wenge put away the fox fur and sat down beside the charcoal fire, picked up the kettle next to it and put it on it, pointed to the low stool over there: "Tan Changshi, sit down."

Tan Yu came over but didn't sit down, but kneeled in front of him with his clothes lifted.

Luo Wenge remained unmoved, lowered his head and lowered his eyebrows, holding the small hand stove, as if he didn't see a person kneeling in front of him.

Tan Yu waited quietly for a while, but didn't get any news, couldn't help but said: "This subordinate has seriously thought about what the landlord said, and has made up his mind to just let Linjiang Tower order it, and vow to follow the landlord to the death."

Luo Wenge's reaction was cold: "You really think so?"

"The subordinates know that the landlord will not believe it easily, so they want to report all the information they have." Tan Yu said.

Luo Wenge laughed shortly: "Aren't Tan Changshi afraid of being killed because of this?"

Tan Yu's expression froze, but he still said stubbornly: "If the subordinate dies unfortunately, it is God's will. If the subordinate can mediate and be safe, the landlord can trust me if he wants to come?"

"Since ancient times, those who are masters have been most taboo about slaves with multiple surnames. Tan Changshi, it's not that I don't trust you, it's because of your previous actions that it's hard for people to trust you." Luo Wenge smiled lightly.

Tan Yu remained silent, Luo Wenge told the truth, but there was one difference, Tan Yu kowtowed: "They don't know my identity."

This is surprising, Luo Wenge thinks it is reasonable after thinking about it, he came through the book and found out how many identities Tan Yu hides, Linjianglou only suspected it earlier, but there is no conclusive evidence.

If Tan Yu's methods were ordinary, he might not be able to be the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, let alone live to this day.

Luo Wenge curled his lower lip: "How do you know they don't know?"

"The information my subordinates have received is always true. If they had known, they would never have risked their lives," Tan Yu said.

Luo Wenge nodded seriously: "It makes sense, Tan Changshi, there is no turning back after entering Linjiang Tower, you should know the rules of Linjiang Tower."

"The subordinates know." Tan Yu put his hands on the ground and looked up at him, his voice was sonorous and forceful, "The living come in, the dead come out."

Luo Wenge looked at Tan Yu: "You still want to enter like this?"

"Yes." Tan Yu said so sincerely that it was hard to doubt his sincerity.

Luo Wenge seemed to be moved, put down the small hand stove, leaned over and supported Tan Yu's arms with both hands: "Tan Changshi, please, Linjiang Tower will be your home from now on, if you have any difficulties, just tell me, you will not only be a long history in the future , as long as you put your heart and soul into Linjiang Tower, you will naturally get what you want without any effort."

Tan Yu's face showed joy, and he wrote again and again: "Yes, my subordinates must do their best."

"You don't need to do this, you can make greater contributions to the building only if you are alive." Luo Wenge pressed his arm that was about to swear, and changed the subject with a smile, "Is the arrow that I asked you to check yesterday clear?"

Tan Yu naturally put down his arms: "No, after several investigations, it was an extremely common arrow. The subordinates sent people to thoroughly investigate inside and outside the city, and found that many hunters used this kind of arrow in Chenjia Village on the outskirts of the city. , but the assassination cannot be confirmed.”

Luo Wenge was thoughtful: "Did you find the place where the archer was yesterday?"

"I found it, on the roof of the most famous Anfeng Restaurant in the city." Tan Yu said.

Luo Wenge rubbed the small stove, feeling that if he wanted to find someone who could shoot arrows, he had to start from Chenjiacun. He glanced at Tan Yu who was bowing his head: "It's been hard work for Tan Yu."

"The subordinate's responsibility lies." Tan Yu said.

"If nothing else, you go down first." Luo Wenge said.

Tan Yu obeyed: "Yes."

Luo Wenge watched Tan Yu's figure disappear at the gate of the courtyard before turning his gaze away. It was time for Han Zhi to make it difficult for Tan Yu. People who live too comfortably will forget what kind of person they are, and double-deckering for too long won't do.

As the end of time approached, Luo An, who had disappeared for most of the day, came back in a hurry, and walked out to meet Luo Wenge: "Young master."

Luo Wenge walked quickly, got into the carriage, and asked, "Any news?"

"Yes, news from the palace." Luo An handed over the letter, and couldn't help asking, "Now she is a noble concubine, and the son is an important minister, so send someone to deliver the letter carefully, so that others will know..."

After Luo Wenge finished dismantling the letter, he read it and burned the letter. Hearing Luo An complain softly, he smiled and said, "You think she wants to renew our relationship with me? Luo An, your son is not dizzy, let alone playing with fire, don't worry. .”

"That's good." Seeing that there was no sign of him lying, Luo An was relieved, "From my subordinate's point of view, Ms. Xu should also solve the problem, so as not to have long nights and dreams."

Luo Wenge looked at Luo An with a smile, and asked with interest: "In your opinion, how should Miss Xu deal with it?"

"The best thing to keep a secret in this world is a dead person. This subordinate thinks—" Luo An said, raising his hand to gesture at the neck, making a beheading motion.

Luo Wenge knew that Luo An was right, but his conscience was too bad, and his principles did not allow him to do that.

Xu Jinyuan is a weak girl, who was supposed to marry into the royal family by order, but it's fine if she is stiffened by the villain Li Daitao. If he wants to kill the grass, that's not acceptable.

He said in a deep voice, "Good job, take care of her. I'll see her later."

Luo An showed a little puzzlement on his face, and felt that his actions were a bit too soft-hearted. In the past, Xu Jinyuan would have been killed secretly long ago.

Luo Wenge could see what Luo An was thinking in his heart, but he didn't intend to explain it. Sometimes it would be good if he didn't say it. He didn't want to say too much to be self-defeating.

After getting off the carriage, it was completely dark. Luo Wenge said to Luo An who followed him, "Go to the study, I'll edit a book, and you go and hand it to Han Zhi yourself."

Luo An nodded and followed him to the study.

In the study, Luo Wenge dried up the letter, put it in an envelope and sealed it, and handed it to Luo An: "Be careful, don't let this letter fall into the hands of others, and then send a message, let Han Zhi check the recent movements of the Northern Xinjiang royal family, if there is any... Didn't put your hands inward."

"The subordinate understands." Luo An took the letter and put it in his outer shirt, turned around and walked away quickly.

Luo Wenge returned to the room, changed into what he thought were ordinary clothes, stood at the gate of the courtyard and summoned a servant: "Tell Uncle Rong, I won't eat dinner, I have something to go out."

The boy got orders and ran away.

Only then did Luo Wenge go to the place that he had made an appointment with Xiao Yulan. When he turned the corner at the back door, he was still thinking, he was flustered at the time, and he didn't hear what time Xiao Yulan said.

At the entrance of a remote alley, Luo Wenge saw the simple and elegant carriage inside, and thought to himself that he was late, so why didn't he ask Xiao Yulan to wait for him?

Thinking of this possibility, he quickened his pace and went to the front of the car. Eunuch Li who was standing beside the car wrote: "Lord Luo."

"How long has Eunuch been here?" Luo Wenge asked in a low voice.

Eunuch Li's fair face was full of kind smiles: "A cup of tea is more than enough."

In other words, he did come late and made Xiao Yulan wait, Luo Wenge
