The Submissive Emperor

"The arrangements are made." The little eunuch said in a low voice, with some trouble in his eyes, but he didn't dare to say more.

When you arrive at Taimiao in the early morning, worship your ancestors first, and then worship the sky at noon.

Before offering sacrifices to heaven, the royal family and ministers can drink tea in the hall, and then go to the altar of worship at noon.

Lou Jing leaned on the porch pillar to rest for a while, he didn't need to guard, he only cared about the guard of honor, now the guards were changed and stood under the jade steps, the 24 of them could breathe a little.

"I didn't even have time to eat in the morning, and I haven't had a drop of water yet. Our third rank is too different from the third rank in the hall." The right commander leaned against Lou Jing, complaining endlessly.

Lou Jing smiled lightly, before she said anything, she turned her head and saw a head protruding from the end of the corridor, said hello to the commander-in-chief on the right, then walked over, turned the corner, and saw Anshun holding a cup of tea respectfully, "My lord wants The little one is here to give the crown prince a cup of tea."

There are limited tea sets in the Taimiao, and each person in the royal family has one cup. Xiao Chengjun must have asked Anshun to give him hot tea to drink while he was changing tea for him.

Lou Jing held Xiao Chengjun's used teacup, warming it up to his heart, Anshun handed over another cloth bag, "My lord asked me to bring it with me this morning, it was just warmed up in the tea room, you can eat it while it's hot .”

There were two warm meat buns in the cloth bag, Lou Jing happily ate the buns in two or three bites, and drank the hot tea with a gulp, her stomach was no longer uncomfortable, and her body became much warmer.Once his prince husband hurts someone, no one can resist it.

Anshun took the empty cup and bun cloth with a smile, bowed and stepped back to make tea for Xiao Chengjun again.

Lou Jing lifted her feet contentedly and wanted to go back, another little eunuch jumped out from nowhere, and ran towards this side in a hurry, and was about to bump into him.Most people would consciously reach out to block it at such a time, but Lou Jing naturally took half a step to the side, and the little eunuch fell straight to the ground without bumping into anyone.

"Ouch!" The little eunuch fell hard and got up humming, Lou Jing, who was standing beside him, didn't have the slightest intention to help, because he recognized that this was the little eunuch Na Fu who was next to the third prince Xiao Chengduo.

Nafu got up, looked up at Lou Jing's face, but saw that the man seemed to be watching something interesting, looked at him with interest, couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart, but he didn't dare to disobey the Lord's order , had to look left and right, and quickly said: "My lord is well, the evening palace banquet, His Royal Highness the third prince invites the son to go to the imperial garden for a talk, and we have important matters to discuss."

Lou Jing raised her eyebrows, the three princes did not speak more than five words to him in a year, why did they suddenly want to see him, they probably haven't gotten to know each other enough to have a private meeting in the palace, right? "I would like to ask my little eunuch to tell you that it is my duty that I cannot leave the table at night, so please don't be surprised." After finishing speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave.

"It's a small matter, I know it's abrupt, but it's related to your future, please think twice," Nafu said anxiously, "At three o'clock in the afternoon, by the small lake in the Imperial Garden."

This is interesting, Lou Jing pursed her lips, could it be that she wanted to win him over?Thinking about it, in the eyes of outsiders, he was married by Xiao Chengjun and sent back home. On the surface, Xiao Chengjun did not give him any help or benefits. Is the prince wooing someone? "Since that's the case, please inform Your Highness that I will try my best to go, but the Habayashi Army changes every time, if you can't make it in time, please don't blame Your Highness."

Nafu immediately responded with joy, turned around and left in a hurry.

Jitian was busy all morning and returned to Beijing at noon. After the Yubayashi army had eaten, they had to prepare for the palace banquet in the evening.

New Year's Eve is a family banquet for the royal family, and no ministers are invited, only the closest relatives of the royal family are invited, so there is no need to make a big deal, and there is no need for a full imperial guard of honor.

When the palace banquet started, these imperial guards of honor became guards, just waiting to change shifts with other guards.

The Yingchun Hall where the family banquet is held is actually a warm pavilion on the east side of the imperial garden. Because of the earth dragon, it is the most comfortable place to have banquets in winter, but because the palace is small, only family banquets can be held, not big banquets.

Before the three quarters of Haishi, Lou Jing had already changed shifts, and quietly hid behind the rockery in the imperial garden, waiting to see what the third prince would do.

On the thirtieth year, you have to keep the year old, so the palace banquet will last until Zishi.

Xiao Chengjun poured himself a drink in silence, and found that the third prince beside him was a little absent-minded tonight, and even fidgeted.At two quarters of the hour, the third prince got up and left.

There was silence in the imperial garden, and the moonlight fell from the clear night sky, reflecting the small lake sparkling.

Xiao Chengduo said he was drunk, so he came out to breathe, waved his hands and retreated the servants, and only brought the little eunuch with him into the imperial garden.The lake was empty, there was no one there, and he was not in a hurry. He stood by the lake and waited quietly for a full two quarters of an hour. He was shivering with the night wind, and gradually became impatient, "Can you ask me?" Is it time for the Habayashi Army to change shift?"

"Your Highness, the order of the daily shifts is set temporarily. No one knows, even the young ones can't find out." Nafu was very aggrieved, "Why don't we go back first? It's..."

"What are you talking about?" Xiao Chengduo waved his hands impatiently, "Go back first and tell Concubine Mother that I drank too much and want to hang around outside for a while."

Concubine Chen Gui, as a concubine with a high status, can also attend the palace banquet. With her help, Emperor Chunde will not pursue it.

Nafu had no choice but to agree, and went to Yingchun Palace with a bitter face.

Lou Jing hid in the middle of the leeward rockery, ate a few chicken legs, drank half a pot of wine, and then showed up unhurriedly, "The third prince has been waiting for a long time."

"My son is willing to go to the appointment, I am very happy." The third prince stood with his hands behind his back and said with a smile.

"I don't know why Your Highness Yuechen came here?" Lou Jing wanted to laugh when he saw that the third prince was shivering from the cold and wanted to look proud and noble.

"You know what's going on in the court these days, right?" Xiao Chengduo pretended to be deep and said, but stared at Lou Jing with a pair of eyes without blinking. The moonlight was dim, which could cover up all the flaws. It was even more beautiful by three points, "The position of the crown prince, the emperor actually prefers me."

Lou Jing raised his eyebrows, he could see clearly the eyes of the third prince, so it was not because of his family status, but because of his appearance?A sense of absurdity suddenly surged up, this third prince is really spoiled, do you know what he is doing?Lou Jing lowered her eyes and slightly raised the corners of her lips.

At the palace banquet here, someone stooped to Xiao Chengjun's side, whispered something in his ear, Xiao Chengjun frowned immediately, got up and left the table.

"You have been married before, so it may not be easy to talk about a good marriage. When things are done, you can be my princess." Xiao Chengduo looked at Lou Jing's thin lips that were shining brightly under the moonlight, and couldn't help it. I swallowed my saliva.

"Your Majesty's kindness, I accept it, but my heart is ashamed, and I don't want to marry into the emperor's family again." Lou Jing slowly looked down at the Taihu Stone at his feet, calculating how to push him there with thin ice into the water.

"I treat you sincerely," Xiao Chengduo looked at the lovely and pitiful beauty in front of him, and couldn't help stretching out his arms to hug him, "I'm not that useless elder brother, I can't even keep the crown prince."

Lou Jing avoided the third prince's touch, but walked along the jade pendant around her waist, and quickly hid it in her sleeve, "Your Highness, please respect yourself."

"From the day I saw you on my wedding day, I will never forget it. No matter what, I will definitely ask my concubine to let you be my concubine." The third prince reached out to touch Lou Jing's face.

Lou Jing secretly used her right foot to kick him into the water, but at this critical moment, a steady and powerful voice came over, "What are you doing?"

The two turned their heads at the same time, and saw Xiao Chengjun with a gloomy expression.

In front of Xiao Chengjun, you can't push the third prince into the water, otherwise he will bite back and say that the elder brother pushed him into the water with the intention of killing him. Lou Jing immediately released the strength from her legs, and threw herself into Xiao Chengjun's arms Li, "Your Highness, the third prince, he flirted with me..."

Xiao Chengjun looked at Lou Jing who was wronged in his arms, resisted the urge to roll his eyes, and said coldly: "Third Brother, is this how you treat your sister-in-law?"

The third prince was stunned. These two people are no longer husband and wife. Now they are like this, maybe there is still an affair. If so... Thinking of what he said to Lou Jing just now, he broke out in a cold sweat.
