I raise fat emperor beasts in the palace

Xie Yan didn't seem to see Ruan Cheng's unbelievable gaze. He finished his meal calmly and reservedly, and sent off King Ming and Princess Lan. Dian, had another hearty meal, rubbed his stomach and went to sleep.

He is living a comfortable life here today, but the Li family is in full swing.

The news of Concubine Yu being demoted to concubine spread to the Li residence, and General Li directly smashed a valuable ornament in the study, his face turned black with anger, he gritted his teeth and stared hard at one place, but he didn't scold No matter how dissatisfied he was with Ruan Sheng, he didn't scold him.

The lieutenant general was trembling at the side, and it wasn't until his confidant left that he stepped forward to put the saber that had just been dropped back to its original place, and said softly: "General, your majesty seems to be displeased with this... I'm afraid this matter will be difficult to handle." After all, if an unfavored concubine, even if the new emperor does not set foot in the harem, if this jade concubine cannot give birth to royal blood, even if General Li is the new emperor's own uncle, there will not be a prince Let the two sides be completely stable together, for the Li family, they are always worried.

General Li calmed down now, but he didn't speak. How could he not know?He is very clear about what the new emperor thinks. It's not because he was missing for three years. He, Li, and the rest of the veterans have almost divided up the power in his hands. The younger sister is the queen mother, so she will take care of it, but for some reason, the queen mother doesn't seem to be in a hurry to have an heir.

The deputy general kept watching General Li's face, seeing that he hadn't spoken, he suggested softly, "General, why don't you ask the people below to say hello to those old ministers, and put pressure on the emperor at the court tomorrow?"

General Li looked at him blankly, "If he succumbed so easily, he wouldn't have been in the harem for so long." What's more, if it was because of her relationship with her nephew that Yu'er was considered more favored, now She became a jade concubine, and once she put pressure on the emperor to go to the harem, she favored other concubines. Didn't he do his best to offend someone and make wedding dresses for others?

The lieutenant general didn't dare to speak again, but after General Li and the others left, he went to the backyard and saw the crying wife who had just received the news, and told her to prepare for tomorrow and pass a sign into the palace to see what was going on, and whispered After a while, let the wife tell the concubine not to worry, he will find a way to make things happen with the emperor and her.

Mrs. Li was worried that her little daughter would suffer, but when she heard the last word, she looked around to make sure that they were the only ones, so she lowered her voice, "Master, this, this... really works?"

General Li snorted, "Wait, it's less than a month before New Year's Day, and the day before was to worship the ancestors. Have you forgotten what would happen if he appeared in previous years? At that time, when he begs the old man, let's talk about it." Well, it’s not the old lady’s birthday in the first month, but he’s the old lady’s grandson, and he will come.” Adding up the two things together, he will let the new emperor who has stiffened his wings know that his own uncle is his reliance.

Mrs. Li thought about the past. Although she was worried about what to do if nothing happened during the ancestor worship, she had never had a backbone and could only listen to the master first.

The next day, Mrs. Li went into the palace to meet Yu Concubine. After Mrs. Li left, Yu Concubine calmed down instead of being noisy all night, and even obediently stayed in the palace and stopped being a demon.

Not long after Mrs. Li left, the conversation between the two came to Ruan Sheng.

The dark guard knelt down on one knee and lowered his eyes to report: "Your Majesty, Mrs. Li has met with the Empress Jade, and told her to be safe and not restless. After half a month of confinement, she only mentioned two things. One is the ancestor worship on New Year's Eve." The matter, it is said that when the time comes... the emperor will naturally ask General Li if he fails to worship the ancestors; the second matter is the old lady's birthday on the fourteenth day of the first lunar month. Concubine...it's done."

At the end of the dark guard's speech, his voice became lower and lower. He was one of the twelve dark guards left by the late emperor to the emperor. They were trained by the late emperor since they were young. They are first-class in both skills and concealment methods, and they have been loyal to the emperor all their lives. .

It's just that although the emperor knew of their existence three years ago, it seemed that he had been withdrawn for a long time. After the death of the first emperor, he did not call them. It was not until he disappeared and returned that he officially started to call and let them appear by his side.

They were loyal and would not talk too much, but even so, they still felt quite embarrassed to hear this. After all, this involved the emperor's private affairs, and it was the emperor's own uncle who plotted against him.

Ruan Sheng didn't seem to hear it, and there was no ups and downs on his face. He even corrected a few memorials while listening to the report.

The hidden guard couldn't figure out what the emperor was thinking, but he was only in charge of reporting, and he agreed, and quickly left from the secret passage, as if he had never appeared in the imperial study.

Ruan Sheng kept correcting the memorial with a blank expression, as if he was tireless. When he came back to his senses, he found that it was getting dark. Eunuch Xu didn’t hear the summons and didn’t dare to go in at will. Until the sky was like this, Xu The father-in-law thought that it was almost time for Concubine Yan to come over, so he asked softly outside, "Your Majesty, do you want dinner?"

It took a long time for Ruan Sheng's voice to come from inside, "No, you go and tell Concubine Yan that you don't need to come over tonight."

Eunuch Xu was puzzled, but this was the emperor's intention, so he had no choice but to agree, but thinking about it, the emperor might not have dinner anymore, what happened?

Ruan Sheng sat in the imperial study room until it was completely dark, and sat for a while, then slowly got up and went to the apse. After an unknown period of time, a vigorous black shadow rushed out from the secret passage, leaping quietly Silently avoiding the guards and heading towards Huayang Palace.

Xie Yan was already planning to go to the imperial study room. Although he felt that it was a bit troublesome, whoever made Emperor Ruan's imperial meal was of a higher level than his was not only delicious but also varied, and most importantly, the portion was big enough for him to eat very well. good.

I heard that Eunuch Xu came over and said that the emperor is not in a good mood tonight so there is no need to go there tonight. It is a pity to thank the banquet. When Eunuch Xu is sent away, I will send people to prepare dinner immediately.

People are iron and rice are steel. Since he can't go to the emperor's place for a meal, then he can barely make do with it. It's just that these days, he has been sucked up by Emperor Ruan's food, and he always feels that Huayang Palace No matter how you eat the food, it is not as delicious as there.

Because it will take a while to pass the dinner temporarily, Xie Yan is not in a hurry, but an unexpected person came during this time.

Xie Yan was lying in the apse, squinting at the uninvited little eunuch in front of him, "Who are you? It's a little strange, I'm afraid you're not a member of the Huayang Palace?" Xie Yan was the moment the little eunuch appeared I also guessed the identity of this person, and I am afraid that Chu State's meticulous work is correct.

There are no maids in his Huayang Palace, so it was hard to get a little eunuch to sneak in?

The little eunuch looked respectful, "The servant is indeed not from Huayang Palace, and it is the first time His Highness has seen this servant, but this servant knows His Highness. The servant and His Highness... are loyal to the same master."

Xie Yan pretended to be stupid and blinked: "Master? How come I don't know what other masters are there?"

The little eunuch didn't argue with him, but just lowered his voice, "The task given by the superior is temporarily postponed, and temporarily changed to ask His Highness to follow Emperor Ruan during this ancestor worship. If Emperor Ruan still has an accident this time, His Highness will naturally There is no need to act; but if Emperor Ruan is lucky enough to avoid a catastrophe, then His Highness needs to act to make Emperor Ruan embarrass when he worships his ancestors."

Xie Yan squinted his eyes, pretending not to understand, "What does it mean that there is still an accident? Are you going to do it yourself?"

The little eunuch looked at him like a fool, "Why would your Highness think so? It's not easy for a few servants to get in, so naturally they wouldn't do it themselves. However, even if the servants don't do anything, according to the past, whether Emperor Ruan was the prince or before The only time the ancestor worship was not successful, this time... if it is still the same as in the past, there is no need for His Highness to take action, but if there is an emergency... His Highness needs to take action, and the ancestor worship will be ruined no matter what."

Xie Yan probably guessed that there were problems in the past few ancestor worships. He planned to change the method and directly ruin Emperor Ruan's reputation. Take advantage, this...is a bit dangerous.

But Xie Yan was curious, what happened in the past when worshiping ancestors?He propped his head up curiously and looked at the little eunuch, "Since I need to make preparations, I should let me know what happened in the ancestor worship in the past so I can make preparations, right?"

The little eunuch thought about it, and probably felt that there was nothing to say, but the first few times when the emperor suppressed it, no one dared to say it these years. The news has been suppressed, and it is hard to say that it is the first time to worship the ancestors just after he ascended the throne. guilty of the wrath of the ancestors.

The little eunuch also said it, and when Xie Yan finished listening, his eyes widened in surprise, but he couldn't tell that Emperor Ruan really didn't just memorize.

He had heard people mention that Emperor Ruan was unlucky before, and he would be smashed if he walked under the plaque, but he didn't think much about it at the time, but after hearing it now, he felt that it was really not an accident, but a matter of size.

Whether Emperor Ruan was a prince or an emperor, he participated in four ancestor worships.

It has been many years since the first three times when he was the prince. At that time, the late emperor took him to participate in the ancestor worship. One time he participated in the ancestor worship in the first year of his life. As a result, the late emperor personally carried the only prince to participate in the ancestor worship. In front of the ancestral hall, it was originally a bright sunny day, but it turned into lightning, thunder, and dark clouds. At first, it was just an accident. After all, no one could have imagined that the prince, who had been looking forward to it for so many years, was killed by his ancestors for the first time. Disliked.

The second time was when the prince was three years old, he could already walk, and he was led in by the late emperor. As a result, as soon as he arrived, a thunderbolt struck on a sunny day, shaking off the plaque of the ancestral hall.

The third time, when I was seven years old, it turned out to be another downpour.

At that time, Emperor Ruan was seven years old and able to understand things, and he never participated in the ancestor worship. It was not until the first year after the emperor passed away that he had to personally preside over the ancestor worship. Although things were unimaginable, but because those few times were too long and the late emperor suppressed them, I didn't feel anything.

But if there is another accident this time, someone uses them to link them together...

When the little eunuch left and Xie Yan was the only one left in the hall, he rubbed his chin and thought about a frail little prince who was led by his father to worship his ancestors. The little prince was so frightened that he was hiding behind his father, rubbing his chin, and felt that Emperor Ruan looked really miserable, so he couldn't help but sigh, "Hey, Emperor Ruan is really a mess What a pitiful little person..."

Ruan Sheng, who had just jumped over the beams with short legs to avoid the palace people and arrived at the inner hall, just poked his head out from behind the pillars when he heard this sentence. Thank you banquet:? ? ?
