The Ugly Empress

Lord Lang Jinglang is getting married.

The Marquis of Zhenjiang stayed in Fengjing, with the assistance of Lang Jing and Teng Xin, plus his own talent, it was not difficult to govern.

Lang Jing's talent is obvious to all. Not only the court is convinced of him, but the common people also respect him. Although Lang Jing always has a cold face, it does not mean that he is a cold-hearted person.

People often say that at thirty, Lang Jing will be 30 years old after the new year, but he has never been married. It's not that there are not many matchmakers, but Lang Jing doesn't have this kind of thought. Others think that Lang Jing has a high vision and can't see A girl from an ordinary family.

This time it was because the Marquis of Zhenjiang went to the temple to give alms and pray for blessings, and Lang Jing followed him, and accidentally met a very famous talented woman who came to the temple to seek marriage. , can be regarded as a right.

Xue Yu didn't listen to these rumors, he didn't think that Lang Jing would be tempted by some kind of talented girl, after all, in front of Lang Jing, anyone's talent and knowledge are just like others, they can only make fun of them.

But the rumors became more and more true and false, and they became real. Lang Jing didn't go out much in his free time before, but recently he even went to some banquets.

Xue Yu felt a little awkward, he didn't know where his awkwardness came from, he always felt that Lang Jing was his diner, even if he had a rank and became an official, he was Xue Yu's person.

Maybe it was because Lang Jing was gradually out of his control, and Xue Yu began to feel unhappy, but he couldn't bear to say it.

Political strategy itself is exclusive and independent. Xue Yu, who didn't think about other aspects, naturally didn't consider his feelings for Lang Jing, what was the real reason.

Lang Jing's reputation is getting bigger and bigger. When Xue Yu is mentioned, few people may know that he is the Marquis of Zhenjiang, but when Lang Jing is mentioned, the common people in Fengjing must know that he is Lord Lang.

More and more people invited Mr. Lang to dinner, and Xue Yu spent less and less time seeing Lang Jing. When they met, they just talked about river governance, embankment repair, field farming, grain storage, or training soldiers. , not a single private word.

Xue Yu thought for a while, and he and Lang Jing never talked about personal affairs, after all, he was the master, Lang Jing was the guest, and the guest gave advice to the master's grand plans, that's all.

In the past, Xue Yu was domineering. Xue Yu was a fledgling young tiger who had no fear at all and didn't like to listen to Lang Jing "pointing fingers". When he was put under house arrest by Xue Junliang, the missing Lang Jing suddenly appeared in front of him. For a moment, Xue Yu felt that something was different, but he couldn't tell exactly what was different.

Later, he wanted to listen to Lang Jing's "pointing fingers", but the chances of the two meeting each other were less.

Xue Yu knew that if he was not at this age, he would not be able to understand what many people said, including Lang Jing's advice to him.

Now he wanted Lang Jing to give him more advice, but that person's time was running out, and when they met each other, Xue Yu nodded and bowed his hands, and Xue Yu couldn't bear to ask him to sit a little longer.

This day He Dao held a banquet for wine and dinner, and the invitation was naturally handed over to Xue Yu. Xue Yu always refused politely on weekdays. He disdained the eating and drinking in these official circles, but he was in a bad mood recently and wanted to drink some wine, so I went to the banquet.

Xue Yu didn't expect that Lang Jing was also invited to the banquet. He was unhappy and uncomfortable because of Lang Jing. When he saw this person, he felt even more awkward. He inevitably turned a blind eye and drank several glasses of wine.

He Dao naturally took great effort to curry favor with Xue Yu. He invited beautiful dancers to dance and sing. Everyone knows that Zhenjiang Hou has already reached the marriageable age, but he has never married a regular wife. Girls are coveted for a long time.

He Dao doesn't have a daughter, but he has a adopted daughter whom he recognizes. Unfortunately, this adopted daughter is the number one talented woman in Fengjing, who has spread a lot of gossip with Lang Jing.

Xue Yu was in a bad mood, and when she saw her, her heart sank, and she almost walked away, but then she thought about why she was unhappy, Lang Jing was like her teacher, and now he was going to get married, she was a talented woman , and the talented girl has a foster father with a good family background, she should be happy.

The woman came out to play the piano, looked up and saw Lang Jing, she couldn't help blushing, her shyness and embarrassment were naturally very clear, Xue Yu suddenly felt a sip of wine stuck in her throat, and she couldn't get up or down.

He Dao asked his daughter to come out because he wanted to match her with Zhenjiang Hou, but his daughter actually liked a little Lang Jing, and her attitude was so obvious, didn't she deliberately show Zhenjiang Hou's face?

Xue Yu was absent-minded and spilled the wine on his body. He Dao found an opportunity, and smiled and asked his daughter to lead the way, asking Zhenjiang Hou to change clothes in his room.Changing clothes is a fake, but what you do is true, everyone will naturally know.

The rare thing is that Xue Yu didn't refuse. Although the woman is unwilling, she can't refute Zhenjiang Hou's face in front of everyone.

When the two entered the room, the woman cried and knelt down, begging Xue Yu to be fulfilled. The woman said that she had someone she admired. Although she didn't know what that person was thinking, she insisted on marrying him.

Knowing that she was talking about Lang Jing, Xue Yu's heart suddenly turned cold. He felt uncomfortable, with a dull pain in his heart, so uncomfortable that he couldn't speak, feeling like he was lost.

Xue Yu pretended to be innocent, ridiculing the woman was wishful thinking, how could he fall in love with such a little girl, then turn around and leave.

Xue Yu went back to the mansion, and saw Lang Jing enter the study. After a pause, Xue Yu followed him into the study.

Lang Jing obviously didn't expect Xue Yu to come back so early.

Seeing Lang Jing, Xue Yu was overwhelmed with thoughts, and even blurted out, "Do you like He Dao's daughter?"

Lang Jing was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Everyone has a love for beauty, let alone such a virtuous and virtuous talented woman."

Xue Yu rolled his throat awkwardly. He knew the answer a long time ago, but he didn't know why. He wanted to hear Lang Jing say it himself, but when he really heard it with his own ears, he didn't seem to feel good.

Xue Yu couldn't help but said: "When I saw her today, I didn't think she was virtuous or virtuous, she was just an ordinary woman."

Lang Jing stared at Xue Yu, keeping his eyes open for a moment, and said: "Because Lord Hou is still young, he just can't understand Lang. In the next year, Lang will be thirty. After following Lord Hou for so many years, what he should have experienced I have already experienced it, and now the world is peaceful, and my ambitions have all been flattened, what else can I expect... Lang can't afford it, and just wants to find someone to accompany him for the rest of his life."

Xue Yu also stared at him for a long time, and said with a smile: "Then I'll be the master, how about... marrying you...?"

Lang Jing suddenly laughed out loud, and said: "Okay, my wife's family background is good, she was born beautifully, and she will be full of children and grandchildren in the future, and her achievements will last forever. If I, Lang Jing, have such a second half of my life, I will be successful and famous. It's a pity."

He paused as he spoke, and sighed: "It's a pity that Lang may not know what is good or bad, and he is going to disobey Lord Hou's good intentions... Lang Jing already has someone in his heart, and he can't tolerate anything else. If he is lucky in this life, maybe he can be with you." This person will be accompanied for the rest of his life, if he can't be with the person he likes, he would rather die alone."

Hearing what he said, Xue Yu was too shocked to speak. Lang Jing picked up the document on the table and said, "This is my resignation letter. I want to present it to Lord Marquis tomorrow, but it seems that it can be submitted in advance."

Xue Yu didn't accept the documents, but just waited for Lang Jing, and said, "Why are you leaving? Is your official rank not high enough, or your salary not enough?"

Lang Jing laughed and said, "I said it just now, but I don't have any ambitions anymore."

As he spoke, he put the documents on the table and turned around to go out. When Xue Yu saw his back, his heart tightened, and he couldn't help raising his voice a lot, and said, "Can you tell me, who is the person in your heart?" Is it?"

Lang Jing stopped walking suddenly, turned his head to look at Xue Yu, his eyes were complicated, Xue Yu's heart skipped a beat, Lang Jing never said a word, shook his head with a smile, and left.

Xue Yu sat slumped on the chair, in a daze for a long time, and then realized that it was already dark.

Looking at the open study door, he jumped up and shouted, "Come on! Call me Lang Jing!"

Seeing Zhenjiang Hou's angry face, the servants did not dare to make any noise, but said: "Go back to Lord Hou, didn't Master Lang leave just now?"

"gone?"

"Yeah, I've already left the city now, with the burden."

Xue Yu's heart sank to the bottom with a "boom", and he shouted, "Close the city gate! Whoever lets Lang Jing out of the city, I'll cut off his head!"

The servant trembled in fright, thinking Mr. Lang had committed something.

It was dark early, before closing the city gate, but the city gate officer received a letter from the Marquis of Zhenjiang, ordering him to close the city gate and detain Lang Jing.

Lang Jing was about to leave the city at this time, but was caught by the soldiers and put directly in prison.

Seeing that it was Mr. Lang, the jailer sighed, what kind of world is this? Sure enough, the royal relatives turned their faces and refused to recognize anyone, and even Mr. Lang was sent to prison.

In contrast, Lang Jing was very calm and didn't resist, just sat down and closed his eyes to rest.

When Xue Yu heard that someone had been caught, he came to the cell in a hurry. He asked the prisoner to unlock the door and waved away the crowd. Xue Yu was very annoyed.

Xue Yu walked in and said with a cold face: "Your Majesty Lang is so arrogant, I don't know how to say anything when the Marquis comes."

Lang Jing didn't open his eyes, but just smiled and said, "Lang knows he is dying, so what etiquette does he stick to?"

Xue Yu opened his eyes wide and raised his voice, "Who wants to kill you?"

At this time, the other party opened his eyes and looked up at Xue Yu, "Isn't it you, Lord Hou? Otherwise, why did you arrest the grass people, and what is the crime of the grass people?"

Xue Yu was so annoyed by his calm reaction that he grabbed Lang Jing's collar. He is a practicing family man, so he naturally had a lot of strength in his hands, so he pulled Lang Jing up and said, "You are so yin and yang, Are you talking to me? How did I offend you? If you want to marry any talented woman, go for it! You!"

Xue Yu yelled, her face flushed with anger, she let go of her hand, shook off Lang Jing, and said, "What are you going to do!"

Lang Jing sighed, and finally calmed down, and said, "Master Hou let Lang go."

"impossible……"

"Impossible? What should I do?" Lang Jing said: "Let Lang stay and continue to advise Hou Ye, and Lang will watch Hou Ye marry a wife and have children, and enjoy his old age? Let Hou Ye also watch Lang Jing marry and have children, and become a A generation of loyal ministers?"

Listening to his words, Xue Yu frowned subconsciously, and took a step back. She didn't expect to bump into the cell door, making the iron chain slam.

Lang Jing continued: "If this is what Lord Hou wants, Lang Jing will definitely accompany you...Do you understand what I'm talking about?"

Xue Yu didn't speak, and the expression on his face seemed to be about to cry. Lang Jing seldom saw this person's fragile side, so he couldn't bear it, and sighed: "Master Hou, let me go."

"No!" Xue Yu suddenly leaned over, grabbed Lang Jing's front again, and said, "I said no, if I don't let you go, you will never go out of the city gate! You will stay here for the rest of your life, so don't even think about it." Marry a talented woman but not a talented woman! You... oh!"

Before he finished speaking, Lang Jing did not break free from his shackles, but pressed his neck with one hand, and the lips of the two were pressed together. Xue Yu could feel the man's breathing, which seemed to be scalding hot, which shocked Xue Yu endlessly.

Lang Jing didn't speak, but stretched out his hand to hold Xue Yu's neck, and kissed the man's lips. Jing only felt his eyes go dark, and Xue Yu beat him back two steps, bumping against the wall, his mouth bursting with fishy sweetness, and the corner of his mouth was broken.

Xue Yu leaned against the cell door, looked at Lang Jing in astonishment, and wiped his mouth angrily, trembling, not knowing whether it was because of anger or something.

He shouted: "Lang Jing! If there is...the next time, I will definitely kill you, it's not as simple as being punched."

Lang Jing sat down against the wall, and also reached out to wipe his mouth, but only wiped the broken blood, and said with a smile: "Are you scared, that's what I think, it's just so dirty, I just want to do it when I look at Lord Hou all day long. This stuff..."

Xue Yu's throat twitched violently. Hearing his words, his face immediately became hot, but his face turned pale again, and he sneered, "Don't talk so nicely, then what's the matter with you and the daughter of the river?" , running outside the mansion every day, it's already reached the point of talking about marriage."

Lang Jing stared at Xue Yu for a moment, then suddenly laughed, and stood up with the help of the wall, Xue Yu took a step back, not knowing what the other party was going to do, who knew that Lang Jing would take another step forward at the next moment, and hugged him waist, slightly lowered his head and kissed him again.

Xue Yu clenched his fists and wanted to beat him, but he just thought that Lang Jing was bleeding out just now. He opened and closed his fists and closed them, but he never continued. Grinding his teeth, he gently licked Xue Yu's tongue.

Xue Yu panicked, and wanted to push Lang Jing away, but her hands were already on his shoulders, but she felt a sense of reluctance in her heart, her whole body was sore and limp from Lang Jing's gentle kiss, and finally she turned into hugging Lang Jing's shoulders. .

Seeing that the man was no longer struggling, Lang Jing said softly: "Lang Jing only has Lord Hou in his heart in his life, so why would he talk about marriage with others?"

"You..." Xue Yu just wanted to say that he was flattering, but he felt something rubbing against his lower body. When he reacted, he was a little at a loss, so he could only pretend to be imposing and shouted: "You are presumptuous! Get out, put the Stay away from me, your nasty bastard...You uh..."
