I can't, I can't

The matter of choosing a concubine and standing as a queen can't be stopped easily when it starts. If Kang Jiangxue wants to stop it, she must talk to the queen mother Fu Hongyao today to mess up this matter in one go.

Kang Jiangxue rushed to Kunning Palace, intending to directly enter the arena and fight Fu Hongyao, but didn't want to enter the palace gate, people came and went, people were everywhere, young ladies from various families were all over it, some were sitting on the porch, Some were sitting in the courtyard. When Kang Jiangxue, an intruder from outside, came into the arena, the girls panicked, saluted and flew together with fans covering their faces.

The noble ladies felt uncomfortable, and Kang Jiangxue, an otaku who "struck into the flowers by mistake", felt even more uncomfortable. He immediately sent a message, but when the person came back, he told him: The queen mother does not want to see her.

Kang Jiangxue had no choice but to order: "Tell it again, tell the queen mother that I must see her today."

The palace man who sent the message went in again, and Kang Jiangxue had to stay in the courtyard and wait.

Because she was not used to being surrounded by a group of girls, Kang Jiangxue simply turned to the small garden, and told the palace people before leaving: "If the queen mother is missing, keep telling me. When she agrees, come to the garden and call me."

The palace man responded naturally: "My servant knows, don't worry, Your Majesty."

It's not so easy to see Fu Hongyao, let's wait for a while, Kang Jiangxue feels sorry for Haitang, and calls the little girl to go with her.

The garden is much quieter than the courtyard, only one or two figures are taking portraits, presumably it is a very high-status noble lady who only gets this treatment.

Kang Jiangxue just wanted to find a place to rest for a while. She pretended not to see the other people who planned to hide on the side of the rockery. She didn't want to find a place to sit down when she suddenly heard Haitang say, "Isn't that Mr. Sheng?"

Kang Jiangxue was startled, and immediately looked over, and she really saw a man and a woman sitting in the center of the pavilion. The woman was wearing a blue blouse, and she couldn't see her face clearly. The man was seriously painting, with bright eyes, it was Sheng Lingyu.

Why is Sheng Lingyu here? ?Isn't he in Shengfu?

Kang Jiangxue had been thinking about Sheng Lingyu since last night, and she really wanted to see him, but now when she saw him for the first time, she felt it was too sudden and she was not mentally prepared at all.

The little emperor's mind turned quickly, and he quickly figured out the reason why Sheng Lingyu appeared here: the painter he met before said that the Queen Mother had summoned all the people with outstanding painting skills.

Haitang saw it clearly, and sighed from the bottom of her heart: "How can this son of the Sheng family know everything, he is outstanding in everything, and he is so good at painting."

Kang Jiangxue couldn't help saying in her heart: Naturally, he can do everything, and he is good at everything.

Because he is Sheng Lingyu.

The existence of Sheng Lingyu itself is the green pine between the cliffs, the light and the wind and the moon.

Just as he was thinking about it, Sheng Lingyu in the pavilion stood up. He seemed to have finished painting, and handed the drawing paper in his hand to the woman for viewing, and then he arranged his tools and prepared to leave.

...Let's go now?Kang Jiangxue hadn't decided whether to show up or not, and what to say when they met, seeing Sheng Lingyu's movement, he was in a hurry and hurried to follow.

Haitang called from behind: "Your Majesty?"

Kang Jiangxue waved her hand and said, "It's okay, you don't have to follow, just wait here."

Before hearing Haitang's response, Kang Jiangxue hurriedly chased in Sheng Lingyu's direction. He walked around the rockery and was about to call Sheng Lingyu to stop, when a female voice suddenly called out in front of the little emperor, "Mr. Sheng."

What is surprising is that the woman in the green shirt that Sheng Lingyu took a portrait of just now should have something to say after chasing her up. Kang Jiangxue had a conditioned reflex and hid her figure behind a rockery, but he didn't respond until after hiding Come here, no, why is he hiding?

This made it seem like he was eavesdropping... It was too embarrassing.

It's a pity that it's too late to regret it. Kang Jiangxue is even more embarrassed to go out now, so she has to wait for the two to finish talking before finding an opportunity, pretending that nothing happened.

Kang Jiangxue had no intention of eavesdropping, but the voice of the conversation fell into Kang Jiangxue's ears clearly, and the woman said: "I have something to tell you."

Sheng Lingyu's voice was clear and sweet. Although it sounded gentle, it still maintained a sense of distance: "Miss Zhang, please speak."

The woman paused for a moment, and her voice softened a little: "Both the Sheng family and the Zhang family are the Dukes of the state, and the two families also have the same aspirations, so it's okay to be closer. Mr. Sheng can ask me to cut water, that's what my family calls me."

Sheng Lingyu said politely: "Of course relatives at home can, but Lingyu is just an outsider and dare not surpass."

Listening to this conversation, Kang Jiangxue took a peek outside, and this glance saw the appearance of the woman in the green shirt. If he remembered correctly, the woman's outline, eyebrows and eyes seemed to be the same as the one who threw the sword to Sheng Lingyu at the Qixi Festival banquet that day. Women are the same.

It turned out to be her, Zhang Guogong's granddaughter, Zhang Jianshui.

Kang Jiangxue was deeply impressed by this woman. At that time, so many women had admiration for Sheng Lingyu, but Zhang Jianshui was carefree, heroic, brave and straightforward.

After listening to the conversation just now, Kang Jiangxue had already anticipated what would happen next. He held his breath and tried not to make any noise to disturb the true love that was pure and impurity compared to the group of scumbags in the original text.Although he also knew... the ending was probably Luo Hua's intentional flow of water and ruthlessness.

The girl from the Zhang family does not exist on Sheng Lingyu's relationship line.

Zhang Jianshui said: "Mr. Sheng, you know, what is the purpose of the portraits here today?"

Sheng Lingyu replied: "For Your Majesty's selection of concubines."

Zhang Jianshui said bluntly: "I don't want to be His Majesty's concubine, let alone be His Majesty's queen, do you understand what I mean?"

Sheng Lingyu was silent for a while. At this time, without speaking, it was already a disguised response.

Zhang Jianshui was really frustrated, but he still persisted: "I have already talked with my grandfather, everyone knows your character and talent, you and I are in the same family, as long as you come to the Zhang family to propose marriage, the Zhang family will definitely agree to this marriage , there will be no obstacles... Sheng Lingyu, I have a crush on you, and I will never marry anyone else in this life except you."

A confession of deep affection is enough to move people, but Sheng Lingyu, a gentleman of Haoyue, is affectionate when he is affectionate, and will not give any extra hope when he is ruthless. Sheng Lingyu shook his head and replied: "Ms. Not a good person."

She mustered up the courage to express her heart, but the result was like this. Zhang Jianshui didn't speak for a long time. Kang Jiangxue could hear the voice, but couldn't see Miss Zhang's expression. She felt that the surroundings had been silent for a long time before speaking again.

Zhang Jianshui said: "It seems that I have no fate, I can't force it, I don't know if I can ask more, the young master refused so easily, but I already have someone I like?"

Sheng Lingyu paused and said, "There is no such person."

Zhang Jianshui asked: "Then why hesitate for a moment?"

Sheng Lingyu replied in silence for a moment: "It's not that I thought of the person I like, it's just that there is one person... I have some thoughts in my heart. Every time I see it, I feel worried and a little worried."

Kang Jiangxue listened carefully, and immediately thought of Chen Hui's younger sister, Chen Yin. He had already guessed that Chen Yin was Sheng Lingyu's first love, and now it looks really good.

Don't worry, isn't this the beginning of love?

Zhang Jianshui asked: "Which family is she from? Could it be that she is ill?"

Sheng Lingyu said: "It's not Miss, nor is it a physical problem, he is just alone, no one can rely on."

Alone and no one to rely on, she fits perfectly with Chen Yin, who has lost her father, mother and brother, and supports the Rouge shop alone. Kang Jiangxue has reasonably outlined the image of Chen Yin, and Zhang Jianshui seems to feel the same, so the topic ends here.

Speaking of this, the final dignity must always be reserved for himself, Zhang Jianshui stopped asking questions, said "Take care" and left.

Brave when confessing, free and easy when saying goodbye, Kang Jiangxue admired this girl Zhang quite a lot, he couldn't help searching for Zhang Jianshui's scene in his mind, what was the ending of Miss Zhang, and whether she found another good husband, Kang Jiangxue Jiang Xue racked her brains to think, and suddenly noticed a point that she had been neglecting before.

After Yang Huo came to power, he established two queens, and the first one who died very early... seems to be surnamed Zhang.

No, what the hell?

Because Xiao Huangwen rarely paid attention to the part of power and strategy, Kang Jiangxue only remembered at this moment that Yang Huo wanted to win over the courtiers when he became queen, so he deliberately chose the granddaughter of the veteran family of the three dynasties to be the queen.

Because that was already mentioned at the beginning of the later description of the article, Kang Jiangxue didn't pay much attention to it. Now think about it, the veteran of the three dynasties, isn't that exactly Zhang Guogong?

Such a sassy girl married Yang Huo?The sudden influx of information made Kang Jiangxue's heart almost numb, and when she recovered, she thought of chasing Sheng Lingyu.

Kang Jiangxue got up in a hurry, and was about to rush out to find someone, when a shadow suddenly overlapped with Kang Jiangxue's shadow, and Kang Jiangxue bumped into Sheng Lingyu head-on.

Sheng Lingyu looked surprised and didn't speak for a while.

Kang Jiangxue was also shocked. He thought that Sheng Lingyu was going forward when he was going to leave, but he never expected that Sheng Lingyu would suddenly turn around and come behind the rockery.

"..."

Such a sudden face-to-face, Kang Jiangxue was almost dumbfounded, Sheng Lingyu's reaction speed was a step faster than him, and after being surprised, she asked: "Why is your majesty here? Could it be that your majesty..."

Without saying a word in the second half, Kang Jiangxue also knew that Sheng Lingyu wanted to ask how long she had been here, and how could he have the face to say that he had happened to eavesdrop on the whole process, so she quickly covered her face and beat her up as usual: "You are so brave, How dare you have a private meeting with noble daughters in the Empress Dowager's palace, I haven't chosen a concubine yet, all the noble daughters who are waiting to marry are my women, do you know what kind of crime this is?"

Sheng Lingyu immediately knelt down and got serious and said: "Your Majesty, I know that this minister is only ordered to be a portrait of your noble lady, and there is absolutely no violation of the rules."

Having said this, Sheng Lingyu suddenly paused. He was preempted by the little emperor, and his thoughts were distracted. At this moment, when he looked back, he really realized that Zhang's girl's speech was very rude to the emperor who was about to choose a concubine. His own speech was far more absurd than that of the girl from the Zhang family.

He is a commoner and has no official position, yet he dares to talk about His Majesty behind his back...

How much did the little emperor hear?Did you hear his lie of being alone?

Thinking of this, Sheng Lingyu froze immediately, and her face became more serious.

Kang Jiangxue didn't know what Sheng Lingyu was thinking, she just thought she had successfully bluffed Sheng Lingyu, and her heart couldn't help but relax.Only then did he have the time to see Sheng Lingyu's face up close, and he was not surprised to find that although Sheng Lingyu's appearance was still stunning, he could not hide his tiredness at the moment, and was not as energetic as before.

Sheng Hui's illness really had a great impact on Sheng Lingyu.

The beauty was worried, and Kang Jiangxue didn't want to embarrass him. She was about to say another word of intimidation and just let it go, but when she opened her mouth, she couldn't help but say, "Hi."

Sheng Lingyu was stunned, and raised her head unconsciously. Kang Jiangxue froze in place, with an angry expression on purpose, but within three seconds, she couldn't help saying, "Hi."

Sheng Lingyu: "..."

Sheng Lingyu said: "Your Majesty, you are hiccupping."

Kang Jiangxue didn't know that she was hiccupping, and she started hiccupping unexpectedly, so embarrassing that Kang Jiangxue almost fainted on the spot. He didn't know what happened, but suddenly hiccupped and couldn't stop it.

Isn't this asking him to die socially in front of Sheng Lingyu? !

Kang Jiangxue blushed from holding back, and said angrily, "What are you looking at? You still don't bow your head, hiccup."

Sheng Lingyu lowered her head obediently, but she couldn't help being as serious as before because of the sudden change of mood.

Someone's hiccup undoubtedly affected the atmosphere very much. Sheng Lingyu was silent for several seconds, and finally unconsciously raised the corners of her mouth, unable to restrain her laughter.

...he smiled.

Sheng Lingyu must have laughed!

Kang Jiangxue was so anxious that she almost vomited lotus flowers. He used to think it was very funny to see the jokes about how the bosses suddenly farted and how the employees would deal with them. He couldn't believe that he would become such a boss one day.

Kang Jiangxue couldn't help hiccuping, and she wanted to turn around and leave. At this moment, Sheng Lingyu asked him: "I have a way to stop hiccups, Your Majesty, do you want to try it?"

Kang Jiangxue hurriedly said: "Hurry up if you have a way? Are you waiting to see my joke?... Hiccup!"

Sheng Lingyu didn't respond, but raised her head and gave Kang Jiangxue a helpless smile.

Kang Jiangxue looked at his face strangely, and suddenly saw Sheng Lingyu stand up and change his expression as if changing his face.Sheng Lingyu has always been gentle, polite and respectful to him, and this is the first time Kang Jiangxue has seen such indifference on his face.At that moment, Sheng Lingyu looked at him, as if she really hated him.

Sheng Lingyu seemed to... hated him so much.

Kang Jiangxue was frightened, and took a step back unconsciously. Afterwards, her back steps were blocked, and the person in front of her changed back to her original gentle and kind demeanor in an instant. Sheng Lingyu's voice rang in her ears, and said softly: "alright."

Sheng Lingyu said softly: "Weichen and my sister hiccupped when they were young. Grandfather always used this method to scare Weichen. It really worked. Your Majesty—"

Sensing that the little emperor's expression was wrong, Sheng Lingyu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, did this minister scare you? Your Majesty forgives the sin. It was just a helpless act, and this minister has no intention of offending."

Kang Jiangxue came to her senses slowly, only to realize that she had stopped hiccupping.

However, he was still unable to get rid of the shock just now, the feeling of being hated by Sheng Lingyu seemed to be imprinted in his body, and his blood was running cold with shock.

Kang Jiangxue felt inexplicably uncomfortable. He held his breath, and couldn't help being wronged and said: "If you say it, you are the only one who can scare me? You are dreaming!"
