Liu Juqi still lives in the Waterside Pavilion. He doesn't care about the changing situation outside, and lives alone in this small corner. Xiao Luan watched him gradually become taciturn and thinner day by day, but he couldn't help him. Xuan Yichen would come here occasionally, and had a meal sitting opposite Liu Juqi, or just simply sitting without speaking or making eye contact.

A steady stream of treasures and rewards were sent to the Waterside Pavilion, which made Liu Juqi feel more guilty and uneasy. He missed the comfortable life when he was driving Liuji. |Beloved, ridiculous.

The weather was fine that day, Liu Juqi stepped out of the Waterside Pavilion on a rare occasion, Xiao Luan followed closely behind him, worried that the scorching sun would burn him, but seeing that Liu Juqi was willing to go out, he didn't try to stop him. People are ready to understand the refreshing and refreshing iced mung bean tremella soup.

The garden of the East Palace was full of flowers, Liu Juqi went in and sat down to rest in the pavilion, staring at the red plum trees that once flourished but now only withered branches, in a daze, Xiao Luan fanned him behind, "Brother Liu, the lotus in the pond is in full bloom. The emperor specially made a boat with a roof for you. If you like looking at flowers, you might as well take a boat to enjoy the lotus. It's cool and interesting."

Liu Juqi shook his head in dismay, "I don't want to go."

Liu Juqi still remembers that when they were chatting, he said that he would go boating with Xuan Yichen in summer, and that he would put a small stove on the boat when the lotus seeds would bear fruit in autumn, and make him the freshest lotus seed tea...

Liu Juqi sighed deeply, I heard a saying before, when you start to keep thinking about the past, you are already old, and you don't want to be like a little old man who is sad, but your thoughts are always in control Can't stop flying around.

After resting for a while, Liu Juqi felt a little sorry to see the ladies and eunuchs lying in the pavilion wiping their sweat constantly, so he stood up and said, "Go back."

Passing by the two-color peony by accident, the petals falling on the ground curled up, and the colors of pink, white, pink and blue could be discerned vaguely. I don't know if Xuan Yiyu had time to see him bloom before he moved to the cold palace, Liu Juqi stopped and said to Xiao Luan said, "Xiao Luan, take the locked brocade box from my closet."

Xiao Luan nodded, and quickly went to fetch it. Liu Juqi stroked the dark red brocade box. There was only one thing in the box, which was the one he picked up from Xuan Yiyu that day, and it was painted with a portrait of Xuan Yichen drinking tea. Liu Juqi squatted under the two-color peony, stretched out his hand to dig the hole, and buried his most cherished fan under his favorite flower, so he could count himself as comforting Xuan Yiyu's spirit in heaven...

Xiao Luan wanted to reach out to help Liu Juqi dig, but Liu Juqi refused, "No need, I can only do this by myself."

He murmured in his heart: Yiyu, I wish you to be reborn into a good family. In the next life, you will only be a carefree and wealthy idler. Xuan Yichen can't help himself, so don't blame him...

Liu Juqi solemnly put the brocade box in, as if he was burying a small coffin. After thinking about it, he also untied the auspicious copper coins around his neck, put them on top of the brocade box, and buried them together. Qualified to carry this thing.

Liu Juqi was sweating profusely after a lot of tossing, and Xiao Luan went to fetch the prepared iced mung bean and white fungus soup and walked away temporarily. After burying the things, Liu Juqi stretched out his hand to pat the soil down, and a small foot wearing a delicate embroidered shoe suddenly stepped on the ground. He touched his hand, and a woman's delicate voice sounded above his head, "Hey, it turns out that Master Liu is here to enjoy the flowers. I didn't notice it for a while, so Master Liu's hand is fine, right?"

Liu Juqi frowned. Fortunately, the ground was soft and his hands didn't hurt too much, but this kind of insult was really unbearable. Normally, Emperor Fenglan's concubines in the palace should have been sent to Yunzhou for retirement , how can there be women?

He looked up at the domineering woman, he couldn't see anything else, he only saw two nostrils, she was wearing a fine dress, she didn't look like Feng Landina's concubine, she was really younger, Liu Juqi said with a light smile, " Empress, if you step on it again, the villain's hands will really get in the way."

The woman snorted, then reluctantly moved her foot away, and there was a burst of laughter like silver bells behind her, and another delicate female voice said, "My sister is afraid of what he will do, but he is just a man who has lost his power." , Your Majesty dotes on you so much, is it just a matter of saying something to fix him?"

Liu Juqi stood up and looked back, did not know that there was a woman next to him, and there were four standing behind him, each of them was different in appearance than Huajiao, and they were all young. Thinking back to the words just now, Liu Juqi was enlightened ——

These women are all the concubines of Xuan Yichen Xinna.

Liu Juqi couldn't tell what it was like, apart from being sad, there was even more helplessness. Since ancient times, emperors have liked to use marriage to bind their courtiers, and to bring the hero's beloved daughter or younger sister into the harem to attract people's hearts. Xuan Yichen can't avoid such tricks.

"Bold, what kind of eyes do you have, you don't know how to salute when you see us!" A woman with red phoenix eyes snapped.

Liu Juqi has long been numb. These people just want to embarrass him and see him make a fool of himself. Wouldn't it be better to resist for a while so that they can catch them?I am not as good as they wish.

Liu Juqi knelt down respectfully, as if he was paying New Year's greetings to his elders, "Liu Juqi has met all the ladies, good luck."

"Hmph, that's really boring. So he was a coward. I heard that he was favored by the late emperor, but that's all." The woman who stepped on his hand just now seemed to be the highest-ranking woman. As soon as she said this, the remaining four people echoed , a dogleg look.

Liu Juqi watched Xiao Luan hurrying past, and said slowly, "Ladies and gentlemen, this East Palace is currently a forbidden area, it seems inappropriate for a few of you to come and go at will, and besides, even if the villain is what you call a male favourite, at least it is A man, don't you avoid suspicion?"

The five women looked at each other, seeming a little guilty, the one in the lead waved his hand, "Forgive him for not being able to flatter the emperor, let's go."

"Sister, is it so cheap for him?"

"Remember," the leader glared at Liu Juqi threateningly, "If you dare to make irresponsible remarks or flirtatiously seduce people in front of the emperor, watch your head carefully, my father is Prime Minister Zuo."

"The little man understands."

Xiao Luan came, and was about to question those arrogant concubines, Liu Juqi gave him a wink, Xiao Luan could only watch them walk past him, "Brother Liu! Why are you being so angry for nothing?! "

"One more thing is worse than one less thing, forget it." Liu Juqi brought over the mung bean soup and drank it, "It's too sweet, we need to put less rock sugar."

"Brother Liu...don't you even ask about the emperor's concubine?" Xiao Luan asked tentatively.

"What are you asking, I'm not a fool." Liu Juqi stretched his waist, "I'm tired, I'll go back and take a nap, you ask Xuan Yichen to come over at night."

"Has Brother Liu finally changed his mind?" Xiao Luan asked in surprise.

"Don't ask so many questions, just let him come." Liu Juqi turned around and quietly walked back to the Waterside Pavilion.

Even the concubine is accepted, there is really no possibility of a half point between them.

*****

After Liu Juqi got up in the afternoon, he called Xiao Luan over, and gave Xiao Luan the house deeds of Liu Ji and Liu Ji's branch, and the contract of the chef and waiter. Xiao Luan was speechless after these hot potatoes. It is unclear what Liu Juqi meant.

"Liu Ji is my painstaking effort anyway, you have to take good care of it, don't go back to the Lore Palace, Yan Sulan already knows that you are Xuan Yichen's person." Liu Juqi looked around Shuixie Pavilion, "There are also a lot of convenient furniture given by the queen here. You can use whatever you see that can be used, so as not to be a pity."

"Brother Liu, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Luan threw the deed back on the table, "I don't want it."

"Xiao Luan, that's all I can give you. What do you think I'm going to say to Xuan Yichen tonight? I'm leaving the palace." Liu Juqi sighed softly, "He's been going back and forth for so many days , seems to have seen my intentions clearly. A few days ago, he hesitated to speak but was unable to speak. I just brought it up tonight... As for you, Xiao Luan, you can stay with Xuan Yichen, I know you You have to repay your kindness, and you will have a future if you stay here, follow me, you will always be a servant serving tea and water, and will only be looked down upon by others."

Xiao Luan stepped forward and hugged him and cried, "Brother Liu, don't go, the emperor doesn't want you to go..."

"Xiao Luan, in my world, a person can only have one lover at the same time. If Xuan Yichen wants to be emperor, he cannot avoid the Sangong and Sixth Court. Competing for favor." Liu Juqi also shed tears, not noticing that a touch of bright yellow stepped into the Waterside Pavilion...

The smile on Xuan Yichen's face gradually faded, he hurriedly finished the government affairs, and came to the Waterside Pavilion ahead of time, but he didn't expect to hear such words, did Liu Juqi call him here just to say these things?He still wants to go?

"Liu'er." Xuan Yichen called softly, and the master and servant came back to their senses, and Xiao Luan stepped forward to salute, then retreated knowingly.

"Did you hear that? That's fine, so I don't have to say it when I need to." Liu Juqi recently spoke to Xuan Yichen calmly for the first time, "Xuan Yichen, it's your dream to be an emperor, don't you? Can you give up the throne and come with me?"

Emperor Feng Lan waited for Xiao Meng for so many years before he could let go of his power and reputation. Xuan Yichen just stood at the top of this country, how could he be willing?
