Tyrant's "stand-in" shadow guard

It was the first time that Ying Qi got so close to a person when he woke up, and he subconsciously stretched out his hand to push him away, remembering that the person was the Ninth Five Lord, and had to give up.

But in broad daylight, the posture of the two of them was out of place. Ying Qi did not have the courage and courage of the Ninth Five-Year Lord, turned his face away under the subtle scrutiny of the palace people, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, forgive me, this is unreasonable."

Li Xingjin glanced lightly at the palace lady who bumped into him head-on, and just one glance made her turn pale.

When the person walked away, he let go of Ying Qi, fixedly looked at the black eyes under his mask that had no place to hide, slightly curled his lips and said: "Then you have to get used to it in the future."

Ying Qi drooped her eyes and pursed her lips, looking at a loss.

A hand covered the mask over his face.

This time, Li Xingjin didn't soften his heart because of Ying Qi's innocent dodging eyes. He passed his slender index finger behind his ear, hooked the string tied in his hair, and gently stirred it.During the movement, the breath of the two blended together, and under the black hair that was at the same level as Li Xingjin's eyebrows and eyes, was the panic expression of the young man who had nowhere to rest.

"His Majesty……"

The moment the mask was taken off, Li Xingjin's pupils swayed slightly, seeing the familiar facial features covered on an ordinary face, and sighed softly: "Sure enough."

Li Xingjin lightly touched the still bright wound on the young man's face, his fingertips trembled slightly, and it took a lot of strength to restrain himself from kissing him.

Seeing people dodge, he subconsciously grasped the hand beside him, and said in a familiar tone, "Don't hide, this injury looks shallow, but it won't heal easily, let Lin go to the Tai Hospital to get medicine tomorrow, Biying ointment is not bad, It should heal soon."

"His Majesty!"

Ying Qi dodged and knelt down.

Li Xingjin put his hands in the air, and the smile on his face froze.

He slowly tightened his fingers, and looked at Ying Qi who was kneeling at Sese's feet, and the storm was about to come: "What are you hiding, can I eat you?"

That posture is really an eyesore.

Ying Qi straightened her back, Qing Ling's face was tense, and she didn't dare to answer.

At that moment just now, he had the feeling that he was about to be swallowed by His Majesty.

He slowly bent his waist, his voice was hoarse, and he was firm and loyal: "Your Majesty, although Ying Qi is suffering from the soul, but I am grateful to Your Majesty, the sword will not change, and there will be no second heart."

The emperor in front of me is only a weak crown plus three years, but he has been on the throne for thirteen years and has been in power for two years. The world said that he was Zhong Yong when he was young, but now he is absurd, tyrannical, and self-willed. It is a pity.

However, these days, the emperor's guards have warned him about it, enough for Yingqi to know that the emperor's absurd behavior is actually a delicate heart.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to seize a chance of life in the hands of the iron-blooded queen mother who has been in power for more than ten years, and regain control of the country.

And Zhunti Palace Shadow Guard is the sharp weapon in that first-line opportunity, the ruthless sword commanded by the emperor like his arm.

Ying Qi raised his eyes and looked at the man who was as handsome as a god in the backlight. Their shadow guards were so close to the emperor, so they must not be half-hearted, and they must not be slack in the slightest.

There seemed to be fog in his eyes, and he couldn't see clearly the unpredictable behavior under the young emperor's smile, so he could only make a bold guess.

The air became quiet, and April spring flowers bloomed beside the stone road, their branches unable to be lifted due to the weight of the heavy air.

However, Ying Qi felt relieved, and said almost rude words, and the heart that had been anxious since "making a mistake" that day also fell to the ground.

He bowed his head, waiting for the punishment that was about to fall.

However, he only waited for a sigh, followed by a helpless whisper: "This is impatient."

Li Xingjin picked up the mask that fell on the ground, the young shadow guard said so aggrieved, I don't know, I thought how badly he had been bullied by him.

Ying Qi couldn't understand this, and saw a shadow covering him, the emperor squatted in front of him, raised his face, his expression was still complicated that he couldn't see through, it seemed sad and happy, as if we met again after several years Things are right and wrong, but the tone is frivolous: "If I say that Zhongyiying has seven beautiful faces, what should I do?"

Shadow Seven: "..."

The honor of the emperor, the lord of the deep palace, the subjects of the huge imperial city, every move is thunder.Ying Qi didn't know, but just as he was carried by the emperor all the way to Huangji Hall, the "ambiguous" behavior of the two of them in front of the palace had already spread throughout the palace.

So much so that on the second day he officially took over the post of Shadow Guard of Yulin Palace. When he went to Zhunti Palace to look for the commander to get the badge of office, he was followed by many palace servants and servants. , almost gave birth to annoyance.

It wasn't until he entered the small discussion hall of Zhunti Palace that he let his nose loose and let out a big breath.

The one who came out of the small hall was not the Commander, but Ying Yi, seeing his puzzled expression, explained: "The Commander has a mission to go out."

Ying Qi took the waist card he handed over, and nodded clearly.

The shadow guards in the Zhunti Palace are divided into inner court guards and outer court guards. The inner court guards are responsible for guarding the palace and accompanying the emperor, while the outer court guards are responsible for monitoring outside and carrying swords for the emperor.

Strictly speaking, the inner court guards and the outer court guards are two-class positions. Except for the six guards of the Inner Court Huangji Hall, the rest of the inner court guards are under the outer court guards.If the inner court guard wants to be promoted, he must pass the assessment of Zhunti palace and the emperor before he can be appointed as the guard of the outer court, which is to retire from the palace and promote the court.

The highest in the inner court is the vice president, and the highest in the outer court is the president.

He often takes orders outside, and it is not uncommon for the president to not be in Zhunti Palace.

It's just that he still doesn't know, who will supervise the Zhunti Palace after the commander goes out, could it be Yingyi?

Ying Qi didn't ask Ying Yi face to face, thinking that he should inquire about these things thoroughly in the future, otherwise he will inevitably make mistakes when he serves Yulin Palace in the future.

Thinking of what the emperor said to him yesterday, the stone in Ying Qi's heart lifted again, making him feel uncomfortable.

Just about to leave, Ying Liu hurried in from outside.

Ying Yi frowned, and asked him: "Didn't you and Ying Er Ying Si be in the Huangji Palace today, how did you come back?"

Ying Liu rushed into the small hall and sat down, took a sip of tea, and said: "I asked Ying Wu to take my place." After that, he stared at Ying Qi non-stop, Ying Qi was confused, Ying But Yi gave him a kick, "If you don't have serious business, then run back, be careful not to be dragged to the prison department by the commander."

It is an extremely honorable and prudent thing for the six guards of the inner court to serve the Huangji Palace, how could Ying Liu be allowed to do such nonsense.

Ying Liu nodded, and Chong Ying Qi winked, and whispered: "The matter between you and the emperor is true?"

The shadow seven stagnates.

If what he asked was that matter, he would rather that Ying Liu would never talk to him.

Ying Liu looked him up and down, touched his chin, his eyes kept rolling, and finally he suddenly realized: "No wonder, Ying Yi, have you noticed? picture?"

He is not in good shape, Ying Yi has been training newcomers in the Zhunti Palace today, he did not know what happened, glanced at Ying Qi, and shouted: "Be careful! Your Majesty's affairs, how can you make irresponsible remarks. "

"Hey, why are you so anxious?" Ying Liu leaned against the window, poured back the tea in his hand, and put the teacup on the table, "This matter has been spread throughout the palace, even the old queen mother has asked about it. Those maidservants in the house, you slapped each other, so what's wrong with me?"

what--!

The stone in Ying Qi's heart jumped up and down suddenly, almost breaking his heart.

That day, the emperor obviously came to Zhunti Palace casually, and there were no maids and servants around him!

He squeezed the waist card in his hand and froze in place.

Ying Liu saw that his complexion was different, and when he couldn't stand his joke, he quickly slapped himself twice, looked around, and apologized in a low voice: "I just listened to it on the way back, and just said it casually." Curious, but not ashamed to ask Ying Qi what happened yesterday.

There are only ups and downs around, how much has your majesty memorized these years?

However, Ying Liu looked intently at Ying Qi's thin and beautiful figure, a trace of thought flashed in his eyes, then he shook his head, probably because he thought too much.In order to better protect the master, it is not uncommon for the shadow guard to be similar in shape to the master.

It's just that His Majesty doesn't like people to be close to each other, and there are very few servants in the bedroom. It seems that he doesn't care about Ying Qi's dereliction of duty, but loves his house.

That Xiang Yingyi guessed the matter roughly from Ying Liu's words, pondered for a moment, and persuaded Ying Qi in a low voice: "From now on, you will serve in the Yulin Palace every day, and serve the emperor well. There is a deep meaning, if you can't understand it, then keep your mouth shut and follow the holy will."

He is calm by nature, he doesn't just look at the surface like Ruoying Liu.Your Majesty is cautious, but now he does not avoid being intimate with Yingqi... Yingyi thinks about the complicated situation in the court, and he hesitates in his heart. Could it be that the marriage between Southern Chu and the Southern Chu has been pending, and His Majesty is concerned about the Major General, so he retreats as an advance Take defense as offense?

What he said made Ying Liu repeatedly nod in agreement, took the waist card in Ying Qi's hand, looked at the word Yulin engraved on the right corner of the front, and said: "I really didn't expect you to go to Yulin Palace, I didn't tell you about it." That place, let me tell you now, your majesty has avoided a few taboos, so don't touch it."

One of the two is the person who picked up Ying Qi and watched him get better little by little, and the other is the person who has been with him for many days and taught him from a blank sheet of paper. Both of them are quite close to him, so they speak sweetly .

If not, it would be a bit disrespectful to speculate on the Sacred Heart like this. If it were someone else, they would never blurt out so easily.

Ying Qi leaned against the window, for a moment he suspected that he was making a fuss out of a molehill, he didn't tell the two of them what the emperor said to him yesterday...the frivolous words, he tried his best to calm down and listen to Ying Liu's speech.

At the same time, the Empress Dowager's bedroom, Cihan Palace.

In the front hall, the fragrance of agarwood is quiet and elegant, and the lingering smoke is lingering.

Nanny Ming got up, saluted the two masters in the hall, then bowed and stepped back, went to the small case where the incense burner was placed, disposed of the incense ash, and smoked new incense again.

The new incense was ignited again, and there were a few low coughs from men in the hall. The gentle expression on Nanny Ming's round face remained unchanged. She gently picked up the incense burner and placed it in the most suitable position. He signaled to leave the hall.

In the palace, the empress dowager is dressed in ocher palace attire, her eyebrows are like willows, and her temples are like shaved hair. Under the hardcover, her face is calm and elegant. At first sight, no one can connect her with the iron-blooded empress dowager who has been in power for ten years. .

Hearing Li Xingjin cough lightly, the Empress Dowager caressed her beautiful nails and said softly, "Your Majesty still can't smell the fragrance."

Li Xingjin leaned on the low couch, the corners of his lips curled up: "It's not that the Empress Dowager doesn't know that I have been naughty since I was a child, and I have always had bad habits. There are many etiquettes in the palace, which are not suitable."

Seemingly not hearing what he meant, the Empress Dowager said indifferently: "The rest of my life is fading away, and I am plagued by many minor diseases, so I have to rely on some foreign things to survive. Your Majesty's healthy years should not be hindered by this, even if it is not suitable. , There is also a long time to get in touch."

"Break in," Li Xingjin straightened up abruptly, swiping his sleeves, the cigarette was broken, his face turned cold, his eyes burning, "Sharp stones are hard to grind, the proud son of heaven, why do you have to suffer?"

The Empress Dowager paused, as if surprised at his violent behavior, and then said calmly: "Your Majesty, you should know that the marriage between Southern and Chu is absolutely impossible." She eased her tone, "I have no intention of obstructing it, but the rest of the generals have heavy troops in their hands. , Hundred Weeks can no longer be chaotic."

"Fighting against foreign enemies and protecting the country for several years, the young man of the Song family did nothing wrong, but the third prince of Southern Chu made more mistakes."

"It's strange, it's good luck. He has no share with Bai Zhou, and he has no share with His Majesty."
