Zhenlong Gluttonous Feast

Sleepless that day and night.

Tossing and turning, I always think of Du Ruo's words.

Firm, but I am at a loss.

It's his choice, I can't say anything more, but it's unavoidable that the object is Emperor Zhao.

In fact, it's useless to think too much, and I still can't change any status quo.

Maybe it was because the movement of turning over was a little louder, Yi'er came in with the lights on and knelt in front of my bed, obediently kneading various acupuncture points for me, "Do you have something on your mind?"

I closed my eyes, and the tiredness leaked out at this moment.

It took a long time to ask, "Yi'er, if you could choose, would you like to stay in the palace?"

Shen Yi'er replied, "My lord, Yi'er has been in the palace since he was a child. He has never done any other work but only knows how to serve the master. Yi'er used to serve the concubine Jin in Fengyi Palace, and was punished for making mistakes. Yi'er would have been kicked out of the palace if he hadn't been assigned to serve the lord later on. With Yi Yi'er's body, it would be difficult to make a living outside the palace, so Yi'er is grateful to the lord from the bottom of his heart."

I couldn't help being stunned, the first time I heard such a story.

After a moment of silence, I said, "Yi'er, if possible, let me take you and He Ling out, okay, go out and live a normal life."

I heard my own voice was very small, it seemed to be trembling, and every word was uttered with great weight.

"Go out?" He seemed to be stunned, "Yi'er never dared to think about it, is it really possible?"

I nodded, and then fell into a drowsy sleep.

It was noon when I woke up the next day. I sat up and stretched, feeling refreshed.

At this time, Ruan Xiangrong rushed in in a panic.

"It's not good, Lin Cheng."

I yawned and casually asked, "What's wrong?"

He threw off the bed and grabbed me, "You are still sleeping, the sky is about to fall!"

"What the hell happened." Only then did some tension arise.

"At the early court today, the minister of the Ministry of Rites actually read the Shangguan's book again, saying that he was misbehaving and forming a party for personal gain."

I was surprised, and asked stupidly, "Which Shangguan?"

"It's enamel!" Ruan Xiangrong shook my shoulders, "Isn't the Minister of Rites an old acquaintance of yours? He is usually polite, how can he casually frame someone at this time!"

The servant of the Ministry of Rites, isn't it Du Ruo!

I rushed to Du Ruo's residence, and when I saw him, he was still holding a book, looking as elegant as usual.

I couldn't wait to ask, "Why..."

He put down the book, pulled me to sit down, and pressed his finger on my forehead, "Lin Cheng, what's wrong with you, you look so bad."

I grabbed his wrist, "Tell me, why did you want to ... fall into the injustice of an official?"

He also let me hold him, but there was a strange expression on his face, "You think I framed him? Everything I said is true."

"I have lived with him for a long time, if there is something about him, wouldn't I not know it?"

"For these years, Shangguan Fangang has lived in the capital, but he has tried his best to make friends with various dignitaries, isn't it just to respond from the inside when his father raises troops?"

"You, you also believe that the prince conspired?"

"The evidence is solid, why don't you believe it?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

He broke away from my hand a little impatiently, "Lin Teng, don't be impulsive. I understand that you have a very personal relationship with Shangguan Fanglang, but you must not ignore such important matters. For the sake of the community, you must completely put aside your personal emotions!"

Sheji, Sheji!At that time, the elegant young man who made friends with Yuexia and was indifferent to fame and wealth actually gave birth to such a mouthful of community talk at this time!

I looked at him for a long time, afraid that I could not see more clearly.

His vision suddenly turned red, and the heat flew up and spread.

I raised my finger and stroked my left cheek, squinting at him through my fingers, and his expression had become startled and flustered.

"Unexpectedly, we are the same kind of people..."

Whose voice it was, I don't remember.

He raised his eyes with difficulty, but the figure in front of him was still very blurry.

"Lin Cheng, Lin Cheng?!"

Who is calling me.

"water……"

"Here we come."

He quickly lifted me up and handed the porcelain bowl to my lips.

Cool water poured into the throat, and finally felt better, "Where is this..."

"do not you remember?"

"Yes, Du Ruo?"

"it's me."

"Why did I fall asleep..."

"Well... I didn't sleep for a long time."

"Like a dream."

"You, what did you dream about?" He asked hesitantly.

"I don't know..."

I just remember the burning pain all over my body, being swallowed by the darkness constantly, and I was very depressed all the time.Then the totem on the wall of the Cold Food Palace and the man's back alternated repeatedly until they overlapped.The man turned his head and removed the golden mask with his fingers. The same brand was stamped on his face...

"... Lin Cheng?"

When he came back to his senses, he met Du Ruo's concerned eyes.

"I, I, I, I'm fine!" Pushing him away rudely, turning over and sitting on the bed, "I'm leaving!"

"Huh? Wait!"

I don't feel my feet stop.

"I was also at fault for what happened just now, forgive me, forgive me..."

It was as if I saw the first acquaintance and the knowing smile after apologizing to each other, but at this moment I couldn't turn around.

Just say, "It's not your fault."

Do not blame you.

Really don't blame you.

When I went out, Ruan Xiangrong was still waiting for me from a distance, and when he saw me, he rushed up to greet me, "How is it, is there any result?"

Tears welled up, and I choked up, "I didn't ask anything..."

He was angry and anxious, "Why are you crying?"

"Uncomfortable..."

"Huh? Suffering like this for him?! Jiuhuashan always said that you have changed your mind, so don't deny it!" He took out his handkerchief and wiped my tears for me.

"Don't fight anymore..."

He paused, "Are you guys having a dispute?"

"Woo..." poked at the sad place, and the crying was louder than a wave.

"Okay, okay, stop crying, good boy." He hugged me helplessly, and patted my back with one hand.

Later he was quite worried until he sent me back to Zhenlong Pavilion.

When Yi'er came out to respond, he said unintentionally, "Master Ruan, you are so kind to my lord."

Ruan Xiangrong's face darkened, and he let go of his hand, and I fell firmly to the ground.

Yi'er quickly picked me up and patted the dust off me, "Sir, are you okay?"

I scratched my head, only to wake up a little bit, everything that happened before was like a dream.

Ruan Xiangrong sighed depressingly, "Help your lord to rest."

I struggled and refused to enter the door, and stared at Ruan Xiangrong, "The Shangguan's matter..."

He showed a consoling smile, "Everything depends on the emperor's decision. My emperor is wise, and there must be a holy judgment."

"yes……"

Ruan Xiangrong didn't know about the relationship between Zhao Yonglin and Du Ruo, and I couldn't figure it out myself, Zhao Yonglin would be somewhat influenced by him.
