I can't, I can't

After waiting for a while but not getting Sheng Lingyu, Kang Jiangxue took Ping Wuqi back to Zhengyang Hall by herself.

These days, Sheng Lingyu has been busy with a lot of things in private, and it is normal to leave early. The little emperor doesn't have to be accompanied by Sheng Lingyu every second, so naturally he won't pursue it. He just continues to digest the one who just fell from the sky Bad news, he went back to the palace alone with a sigh.

Feeling bad is still indispensable. On the way back to the palace, Kang Jiangxue's whole face was really broken.

He had known for a long time that it was very difficult to recruit Zheng Lanyu, but he didn't know that it was so difficult, connecting the cause and effect of Zheng Yuan, it was like pouring cold water on his head, which made the little emperor's spirit wither.

Difficulties are rare, but Kang Jiangxue can't give up just yet. Zheng Lanyu's early appearance is a turning point. The most important thing is that Kang Jiangxue is still the emperor now. Even if Zheng Lanyu doesn't like the little emperor, it is impossible to go directly to Do something for Yang Huo.

There is a long way to go, let's keep working hard.

Thinking of this, during the dinner, Kang Jiangxue regrouped and set off to meet Zheng Lanyu once again.

Sheng Lingyu hasn't shown up since she left before, but she is accompanied by the newly promoted Twelve Langwei, all of them are young emperors, Kang Jiangxue has nothing to worry about, and went to the banquet as usual, with the people who had been waiting Take a seat.

This celebratory banquet was set up for the new top scholar. All the candidates and officials from the court came to the banquet. The whole scene was very harmonious, revealing the style of literati and elegance.Zheng Lanyu was very close to the little emperor. I don't know if some classmates were making noises. He had a red silk flower on his head, which was festive and conspicuous in this cold winter.

People are good-looking, and of course Dai Hua is also good-looking, but Zheng Lanyu doesn't seem to like it very much, and her face stinks badly.

Kang Jiangxue personally announced the opening of the banquet, and said to appease everyone: "Since it is the No. [-] Scholar Banquet, the No. [-] Scholar and all the candidates should be the main ones. Don't be too cautious, just do whatever you want."

If others were too polite and respectful, the little emperor would not have the chance to gossip with Zheng Lanyu, so he set an example and took the lead to eat and drink.Everyone at the banquet was honest and honest at first, but after seeing that the little emperor really didn't care about anything, they relaxed a bit and started talking about articles in twos and threes.

The atmosphere became lively, and Kang Jiangxue was very happy to see the results. He took a glass of wine and took advantage of the chaos to get to Zheng Lanyu's side.

After waiting all night, just for this, Kang Jiangxue showed a very kind smile to Zheng Lanyu, and congratulated: "The number one scholar is young and promising, and it is rare in the world to be named on the gold list at such an age."

Zheng Lanyu had red flowers on her head, and her complexion could not be called good or bad. He raised the corners of his mouth and smiled: "I don't want to be an official so early. Who let Xiaochen's father die so early? If there is no scientific examination, how can we support the lintel of the Zheng family?"

...no problem.

One sentence blocked all the follow-up prepared by Kang Jiangxue. Kang Jiangxue's throat was stuck, and she dared to ask "how did your father die", so she could only say awkwardly: "...drinking."

Zheng Lanyu didn't refuse, the two toasted each other and drank to each other.

At the moment of drinking, Zheng Lanyu's eyes quietly fell on the little emperor's face, seeing that the man was pushed back by him, he still didn't get angry.

really……

Do not understand.

Zheng Lanyu didn't know how many times this was already, whether it was the time when he met the little emperor on the high bridge, or the little emperor personally chose him as the number one scholar in the court today, every time he thought that the little emperor would be unhappy and get angry, this time Everyone ignored the past with a look of not caring about him.

Once or twice can be regarded as a coincidence, but if there are too many times, people have to look at it from another angle.Zheng Lanyu really doesn't understand why this little emperor with absurd reputation and no merits is always acting like this. Not only does he not get angry when confronted with confrontation, but he even takes the initiative to find a way for him who finds fault.

Zheng Lanyu was feeling depressed, and she didn't want to mention another reason why he took the scientific examination this year - his family was poor, and he should have lived in the border area with his mother, but because of the little emperor's will to bury his father to benefit his family, he was deceived by that. Thanks to this kindness, Zheng Lanyu and her mother were able to return to the imperial city so quickly...

I don't want to talk about the past, Zheng Lanyu was upset when facing the little emperor, and she couldn't be calm after all.After finishing the glass of wine, he suddenly grabbed the jug on the table and said to the little emperor, "Thank you for your concern, I also want to toast to your majesty."

How could Kang Jiangxue not respond to Zheng Lanyu's toast, and immediately toasted and let Zheng Lanyu fill it up.

Zheng Lanyu poured a full glass of sake and said, "Please, Your Majesty."

Kang Jiangxue took a sip without hesitation, and after drinking a glass, he let out a long breath.

The wine at the banquet was warm, and his heart felt a little hot after drinking it. The little emperor gathered himself together, thinking about what to say, but Zheng Lanyu poured another glass into his wine glass while holding the jug.

Kang Jiangxue: "?"

What does it mean?

Zheng Lanyu said again: "Please, Your Majesty."

Kang Jiangxue didn't know why, so she drank after a pause or two. Zheng Lanyu blinked her eyes, frowned, and poured him a glass for the third time.

Now Kang Jiangxue finally understands, dare to love... Zheng Lanyu wants to vent his anger on him by pouring alcohol?

This temper... the little emperor was dumbfounded, and he had nothing to do with Zheng Lanyu's character. Of course he could refuse, but thinking of Zheng Yuan, he still drank the wine in the end. It would be nice to have some wine.

The little emperor drank several cups in a row, his face turned red rapidly, and his eyes gradually became straight. Zheng Lanyu was determined to see how far the little emperor could bear him, and kept pouring for him with a cold expression.

After a whole pot, the little emperor was still drinking obediently.

Zheng Lanyu was not happy, and even more annoyed, she changed the second pot for the little emperor to continue, but the little Jingui emperor was stunned after seeing it, and still poured the wine into his mouth, the whole process was so quiet that no one around He found that the little emperor had already drank a lot in a short period of time.

This kind of tolerance made Zheng Lanyu very upset, he couldn't help but spit out angrily: "Still drinking! Why are you still drinking!"

The tone was very fierce, not like facing the emperor at all, without any fear, people who didn't know it looked like they were quarreling among their peers.

Kang Jiangxue froze from the spray, holding an unknown number of glasses of wine in her hand, and a question mark slowly appeared in her mind.It was Zheng Lanyu who toasted him and he had to drink it, and now Zheng Lanyu was even angrier after he drank it?

This is too difficult to serve, so should I drink it or not?

Kang Jiangxue had no choice but to think about it, and finally sighed softly. He tilted the mouth of the cup and spilled the wine on the ground, and said softly: "Then this glass of wine is dedicated to your father, and he deserves to be hurt if you win the prize in the toad palace." Have a drink."

Zheng Lanyu's cheeks twitched suddenly, he looked at the little emperor's face without saying a word, and he didn't speak for a long time.

At this time, someone from the palace called out, saying that His Royal Highness King Ning had arrived. Kang Jiangxue drank a lot of wine, her mind was dizzy, and she was half a beat late before showing a sad expression...Who?

Scumbag?What is he here for?

The little emperor was very experienced in managing facial expressions, and the embarrassed look only flashed across his face and was immediately put away, but Zheng Lanyu was very close to him, so he took a good look at it.The young man didn't say a word, and silently watched the little emperor take a breath, with a proud expression on his face.

Yang Huo's arrival caused people around to salute one after another, and they all called His Highness King Ning. Yang Huo nodded with a smile, and said respectfully to the little emperor, "Your Majesty."

Kang Jiangxue hadn't been so close to Yang Huo for a long time, and seeing Yang Huo's gentle and gentle face towards him suddenly, goose bumps appeared on her body.

The little emperor said indifferently: "Why are you here?"

Yang Huo replied: "I'm here to thank you. Besides, I don't know if Your Majesty has heard that I will be getting married soon, so I dare to invite Your Majesty to watch the ceremony."

Yang Huo had just been crowned king, and the establishment of the concubine was also due to the situation. Kang Jiangxue knew about this, but didn't know that the candidate for the concubine had already been decided.

In the original text, Yang Huo's first concubine was Zhang Jianshui. Now that Zhang Jianshui is a female official, Yang Huo may directly decide on his second wife in the original text, the only daughter of General Pingyuan. The proud daughter of heaven with the same noble status.

What was that woman's name... The little emperor didn't remember the name, but he knew that her surname was Qi. After Yang Huo ascended the throne, she was called Empress Qi.

The little emperor didn't think he could intervene in such matters, so it was fine if he had heard about it, he nodded perfunctorily, and just wanted to send Yang Huo away early, but Yang Huo didn't want to make the little emperor happy, not only didn't leave, but also deliberately asked: "Why isn't Lingyu here?"

Kang Jiangxue felt uncomfortable when she heard Sheng Lingyu's name from Yang Huo's mouth, so she ignored it. Yang Huo was not affected, she turned her eyes slightly, and walked towards Zheng Lanyu, and said with a chuckle: "This is the new champion of this year. ? He is truly a talent."

As soon as this compliment came out, the alarm bell in the little emperor's heart was sounded, and Kang Jiangxue immediately woke up... Yang Huo didn't have the same idea as him after hearing about Zheng Lanyu's literary talents!

The little emperor was so nervous that his neck stretched out, and he really heard Yang Huo say in a calm manner: "I have read Mr. Zheng Xiaolang's article. After thinking about it a few times, I feel deeply, but there are a few details that I don't quite understand. I want to talk to Mr. Lang. Let's talk about one or two, I wonder if Mr. Zheng Xiaolang would like to show his face?"

Zheng Lanyu squinted at Yang Huo, but was not in a hurry to reply.

Zheng Lanyu was not in a hurry, but Kang Jiangxue was really in a hurry. Yang Huo, a well-educated native, had much better knowledge and insight than him. If this person chatted with Zheng Lanyu, there would be countless topics. How could the little emperor have room to play?

Kang Jiangxue was so anxious that she racked her brains to interrupt the conversation. He spoke hastily, and a voice rolled out of his throat.

"vomit--"

When the sound came out, Zheng Lanyu and Yang Huo all looked at him.The little emperor froze in place, and he was also confused, because he was not pretending, the sound was not made by him actively, but passively and uncontrollably.

What's going on... He really wants to vomit.

In a daze, Kang Jiangxue covered her mouth and retched again, the drink rolled in the little emperor's stomach, so uncomfortable that he couldn't straighten up for a while.

He seemed to have drunk too much just now, and his body couldn't take it anymore. Kang Jiangxue's face turned pale, and she couldn't stand on her feet and leaned to one side.

Yang Huo and Zheng Lanyu stretched out their hands to him at the same time, and Zheng Lanyu got even closer. While holding him up, she complained angrily: "You're too poor to drink?! You won't—"

Before finishing the rest of the words, Zheng Lanyu's hand lightened suddenly, and a tall figure picked up the little emperor, and took a step away in a blink of an eye.

Zheng Lanyu was empty-handed, and reflexively chased forward, but saw the person supporting the little emperor looking back coldly, revealing a face like a heavenly man.

Sheng Lingyu said in a cold voice, "Please stop."
