National teacher, he is a sick beauty

It was not the first time for Shen Ci to propose resignation. He also mentioned it on the day he entered the palace, but it was dismissed by Chu Lang. He did not expect to mention it again today taking advantage of Prime Minister Lin's matter.

Chu Lang looked at Shen Ci's serious appearance, and knew that he would not be able to keep Shen Ci this time, so he might as well go with the flow.

Chu Lang said regretfully: "Sir, if you want to leave the palace, I will let you go out of the palace. Don't mention the resignation, sir. Da Chu cannot live without a national teacher."

Shen Ci remained silent and did not let go.

Chu Lang wanted to play the emotional card and persuade Shen Ci to stay in the capital, but found that Shen Ci had no relatives or friends in the capital, so... no one said that Shen Ci cared about Shen Ci, so that Shen Ci could stay here.

For a moment Chu Lang was unable to speak.

Shen Ci thought it was the little emperor who refused to give in, so he pursed his lips, no matter what, being able to leave the palace is already the biggest achievement in Lijing, the palace is heavily protected by the imperial guards, as long as Chu Lang thinks, he will leave without taking a single step Not going out, and if he returned to the National Teacher's Mansion, it would be much easier to handle than in the palace.

Just as Shen Ci was about to speak, Chu Lang also said at this time: "Sir, now that Prime Minister Lin has been expelled from the capital, the government and the public will be in turmoil. If Mr. resigns at this time, I will lose two important ministers. It will cause a lot of turmoil, so please stay here for now, sir."

The little emperor had already taken a step back, and Shen Ci didn't want to push too hard, there was still half a month before the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, and there was still time...

Shen Ci nodded under Chu Lang's expectant eyes: "I obey the order."

Chu Lang heaved a sigh of relief, and watched Shen Ci leave. The afternoon sun shone on Shen Ci's face, and Chu Lang could only see his back against the light. In the glow.

Then, disappeared.

Chu Lang couldn't see Shen Ci's figure, and his heart tightened suddenly, but he himself didn't know why such inexplicable emotions came from.

Shen Ci killed Emperor Qingde, put him under house arrest, and even attempted to manipulate/control him. Aren't these all done to him by a good man like him?

He is the Son of Heaven, how can he be soft-hearted?

Chu Lang closed his eyes, hiding the thousands of thoughts in his heart.

Shen Ci finally stepped out of the palace gate, and he breathed a sigh of relief at the gate.

Finally, he finally left the palace and left Chu Lang's side.

The cold wind in winter was biting, but he didn't feel cold at all, the soft wind was blowing gently, flying with the frost and snow, it was the breath of freedom.

Shen Ci's robe fluttered in the wind, and he finally showed a sincere smile after half a month of rebirth, as bright as the sun.

Tangli didn't know when he would be able to return home, and he didn't prepare a special carriage, so he had to rent one by himself. After all, he might lose his feet if he walked back home on foot.

The carriage rolled over the ground and made the sound of wheels, but Shen Ci didn't know that the sound was so beautiful, he heard it all the way, and unknowingly arrived at the gate of the National Teacher's Mansion.

Shen Ci raised the curtain, and before he got out of the carriage, he saw a person standing at the gate of the National Teacher's Mansion.

The gate of the National Teacher's Mansion was closed, and the man was obviously rejected, but he was not discouraged, and he still waited here, with a layer of wind and frost on his clothes, which proved that he had stood here for a long time.

Shen Ci didn't want to see him, but he was already blocked at the door, so he couldn't turn a blind eye, so he could only get off the driveway: "Why is His Royal Highness standing at the door of Shen's mansion?"

Lin Yu smiled: "Suddenly a fire broke out in King Yan's mansion. I am homeless now. I walked here unknowingly while wandering on the street. I wonder if the National Teacher's mansion can borrow me to sit?"

Shen Ci watched him lie seriously, and lowered his eyes: "In that case, please, King Yan."

Shen Ci took the lead to enter the National Teacher's Mansion. Lin Yu looked at his tall and straight back and felt that Shen Ci was in a good mood today.

Besides Lin Xuan, is it a happy event for Shen Ci?

Tangli opened her eyes slightly when she saw Shen Ci come back while cleaning in the courtyard, and then she pursed her mouth when she saw Lin Yu following behind.

When Shen Ci approached, she was still looking at the door.

Shen Ci looked at her amusedly: "What are you looking at?"

Tang Li asked, "Did Your Majesty not come this time?"

Shen Ci laughed and said: "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, how could he run to the courtier's mansion twice in three days?"

Tangli nodded slowly: "That's right, His Royal Highness King Yan is well, and my servants are going to prepare tea."

Shen Ci glanced at Lin Yu behind him, motioned him to sit down, and asked: "King Yan is here, not just to sit and sit?"

Shen Ci raised his hand to tidy up the chessboard that had been placed in the courtyard, and the longevity chain on his wrist was exposed between his raised hands. Lin Yu suddenly grabbed his hand.

"What is this?!" Lin Yu frowned, looking at the small but delicate silver bracelet.

Shen Ci twitched, but didn't pull it back, he frowned displeasedly, why both Lin Yu and Chu Lang have a problem, they like to play tricks?

"It's just a bracelet, what's wrong?" Shen Ci asked patiently and kindly.

Lin Yu seemed to have realized his gaffe, let go of Shen Ci's hand, and said, "My lord, I don't know what my king's proposal is at the night of the sacrificial banquet. How did Lord Shen think about it?"

Shen Ci withdrew his hand, and while arranging the chess pieces, he said: "Shen is deeply favored by the emperor, and he will never do anything to endanger His Majesty."

Lin Yu smiled: "Master Shen is not guilty of what he said? You are a great minister in the mouth of the people of Dachu. You support the puppet emperor and only want to be the master of Dachu. You will not harm His Majesty, but this is not the same as harming him." , what's the difference? It's just that you have to set up a memorial archway when you enter the brothel."

Shen Ci's face suddenly turned cold. Even though he knew the evaluation of him from the outside world, no one had ever dared to say such things in front of him.

"Since King Yan thinks Shen is notorious, why should he stoop to come here?"

King Yan saw that although his words were still indifferent, he felt alienated, as if he was about to chase away the guests in the next second. He knew that he had spoken harshly, but in order to make Shen Ci agree to cooperate with him, he had no choice .

King Yan glanced at the chain on Shen Ci's wrist, meaning: "Your Majesty has imprisoned Lord Shen for half a month, and now he uses this thing to humiliate Lord Shen. Can Lord Shen really bear it? The golden wire kept in the cage The sparrow wants to transform into an eagle and fly to the sky, trying to break away from the master's control, and even become the master's controller instead..."

"Master Shen, are you really willing?"

Shen Ci raised his wrist with the silver chain and shook it lightly. The crisp bell rang softly, which was very pleasant. He smiled slightly and said, "Since we want to cooperate, where is the sincerity of His Royal Highness King Yan?" ?”

Lin Yu seemed to expect that Shen Ci would ask this question, and he said very calmly: "Prime Minister Lin, let's take it as a big gift from my king."

Shen Ci: "?"

Lin Yu explained: "Prime Minister Lin intended to assassinate His Majesty, and this incident led to his expulsion from the capital."

Oh, this is to attribute all the credit to him for finding out that Lin Xuan is the assassin's mastermind.

Shen Ci smiled and did not expose him, after all...

The cooperation is false, what he wants to do is nothing else.

·

It was night, and the entire room was lit with candles in the imperial study room, which reflected Chu Lang's figure mottledly.

He just finished handling the political affairs, put down the pen in his hand to review the memorial, and Zhao Yin stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty has been tired all day, pass the meal?"

Chu Lang nodded wearily, he habitually looked behind the screen: "Sir, use..."

As soon as he shouted, he stopped talking.

Shen Ci left the palace early, and the imperial study burned the earth dragon, lit the candles like daylight, and extinguished the ambergris, just for one person, but now that person left without hesitation.

Seeing Chu Lang staring at the screen in a daze, Zhao Yin asked, "Your Majesty misses the Master of the State Teacher? We will see you tomorrow morning."

Chu Lang shook his head: "Have all the people sent to the National Teacher's Mansion arrived?"

Zhao Yin nodded: "They are all distributed around the National Teacher's Mansion and are watching secretly. Whenever there is any movement from the National Teacher, he will report back immediately."

"Well, what did he do after he went back?" Chu Lang asked casually.

Zhao Yin said: "Oh, King Yan went to the National Teacher's Mansion, His Majesty is really planning ahead."

Chu Lang sneered: "I'm just afraid that he will leave the capital without paying attention, and I will never find him again."

"Yes."

The palace servants brought the dinner and came in one after another through the door, and put the dinner on the table.

Chu Lang looked at the dishes on this table, his eyes dimmed.

"I'm going out of the palace, don't need to follow, if anyone comes, I won't see you." Chu Lang confessed.

Zhao Yin was puzzled: "Didn't your majesty tell the national teacher that you can't leave the palace easily?"

Chu Lang smiled and said, "Sir won't let me leave the palace, I just said it according to his will, it's a bluff."

After Chu Lang finished speaking, he changed into casual clothes and headed towards the National Teacher's Mansion.

After sending Lin Yu away, Shen Ci started planning to leave the capital. The ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven was approaching, and for some unknown reason, his heart began to ache again. It was usually nothing serious, but occasionally there was a sudden throbbing pain, which was uncomfortable. .

Xu was reminding him to leave quickly.

He originally thought of leaving the capital as soon as he got out of the palace, but when Chu Lang didn't react, he was caught off guard, but was delayed by King Yan, delaying the best time to leave.

I can only find another time.

Tangli knocked on the door of the study: "Master, it's time for dinner."

There was only one lamp lit in the study, it was a little dim, the jumping candlelight hit Shen Ci's face, his face was slightly pale, and the moles at the corners of his eyes seemed very lively.

He sat in front of the desk, his hand holding the pen trembled slightly, and the ink dripped on the letter, blurring a piece of ink.

Shen Ci frowned fiercely, pressed his hand on his heart, and a drop of sweat dripped from the corner of his forehead.

"No need, let's back down." Shen Ci barely maintained his voice and asked Tangli to back down.

Tangli had no choice but to say: "Master, don't be too tired, call your slaves whenever you want to eat."

There was no response from inside, and Tang Liwen didn't feel that something was wrong. Her master used to handle political affairs like this and didn't like being disturbed.

As soon as she left, a figure landed in the yard. He landed silently and did not disturb anyone. He stood at the door of Shen Ci's study, hesitating a little.

I don't know if the husband is still angry.

He waited at the door for a long time before he raised his hand and knocked on the door: "Sir, are you inside?"

Shen Ci put down the pen in his hand and supported the desk with one hand, so hard that his fingertips turned white.

He was really startled when he heard Chu Lang's voice so close at hand.

Shen Ci's chest rose and fell slightly, and he was distracted to answer him: "Why is Your Majesty coming, and no one notified him, it's really rude."

Chu Lang listened to his alienated but expected words, and sighed: "It's okay, sir, can we have dinner?"

"Never."

Chu Lang said outside the door: "Then I don't know if I can have a meal with Mr.? I have never tasted the delicacies of the National Teacher's Mansion."

Shen Ci did not speak, he said why his heart, which had not been in pain for a long time, suddenly broke out today, it turned out that the little emperor came to the National Teacher's Mansion.

Shen Ci coldly refused: "Your Majesty has a precious body, I'm afraid the food in the National Teacher's Mansion is not used to, please go back to the palace, Your Majesty."
