King's favor is hard to do
Chapter 159.
"Your Majesty, you dare not."
Du Yuzhang laughed, mockingly.
"The emperor of Dayan, a generation of kings! But because he likes the minister, he is so cowardly! Not to mention denying his feelings for the minister, he even dares to admit that the minister is really rebellious and deserves to be killed!"
"You did not rebel!"
Li Guangning's eyes were still fixed on the ground, he gritted his teeth and said,
"I'm the emperor—I said you didn't rebel, and you just didn't!"
"It's the same with Xu Town! It's just the son of a general, don't say you have a reason for the incident, even if you really framed him, I can get you off the hook!
"Last night, you were only delayed by the rebels! Even killing Xu Xiaoqiu's son was done by the rebels! Seeing that the rebellion failed, they vented their anger on Zhongliang and killed Xu Zhenbian! Tomorrow morning, I will announce in public that Xu Zhenbian will be posthumously conferred Marquis, and state officials will bury him! Xu Xiaoqiu will be awarded the title of first-rank protector of the country, and the reward will be ten thousand taels——if Xu Xiaoqiu still refuses to give up, I will make a big fuss about Xu Zhenbian's rape case. Check Xu Jiajun's favoritism, fraud and embezzlement of military pay, and within three years, the name of Xu Jiajun will completely disappear from Dayan!"
Du Yuzhang narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Li Guangning for a moment.He chuckled and was about to speak, but Li Guangning suddenly raised his head.
Emperor Dayan's eyes were bloodshot.He squeezed out a sentence between his teeth,
"Yuzhang, don't talk anymore. I'm drunk, and I can't remember everything you said tonight. You go to rest now. No matter what you said, or want to say, don't speak again——" I’ve said it before, it’s a write-off! The past doesn’t matter, do you understand it or not!”
"A write-off?"
Du Yuzhang chuckled again, but really calmed down.
Li Guangning's heart was beating like a drum, and he was already sweating.
Those words were spoken lightly just now, but who knows, his heart has long been in a mess.He was really afraid—guessing is one thing, hearing it with his own ears is another!
If he really heard the details of the betrayal from Du Yuzhang himself, he would have no idea whether he could bear it?
He had already given up hope that Du Yuzhang would come back safely.But this person came back after all—whether he had nowhere to go because of the mutiny, or he had other plans, he returned safely after all!
He didn't take advantage of the chaos to escape, let alone die!He was lying in his arms now—that was enough!
Du Yuzhang is right.The current Li Guangning has long had a deep-rooted love for him, and he can't extricate himself!If he really left Du Yuzhang, he couldn't survive at all!
Li Guangning looked down at Du Yuzhang.
Obviously the person in his arms has calmed down, so he should breathe a sigh of relief.But he can't.
Du Yuzhang was so quiet, but it gave Li Guangning the illusion that the person in his arms was not here at all.
His body is still there.His heart is long gone.
The palace fell into deathly silence.Only the strong wind still blew past, lifting the robes of the two of them.
Du Yuzhang spoke suddenly, his voice was very soft.
"Your Majesty, I have something to ask, and I have always wanted to ask Your Majesty."
"You said."
"If the minister is in deep danger, would your majesty dare to go alone and run hundreds of miles at night to rescue the minister?"
"So Du Qing is worried about this?"
Li Guangning felt relieved, and the worry just now disappeared suddenly.Since Du Yuzhang is still pestering whether he will save him, doesn't it mean that his heart is still in him?
Li Guangning said softly,
"Of course I dare. Not to mention riding a hundred miles alone, even if you have an army of millions, if it is for Du Qing's life, why would I dare? Du Qing, I don't know if you are in danger today, and I have not been able to save you. That's why you're angry?"
Du Yuzhang ignored Li Guangning's question.He continued to ask,
"...But if I save my minister, I will be scolded by thousands of people, and my relatives will be deserted. After that, I can only live in pain, and every day will be extremely painful-will your majesty go to save my minister?"
This is a bit out of bounds.Li Guangning glanced at Du Yuzhang, feeling somewhat displeased.But the person in his arms was lost and found again, which made him a little more patient.
"Du Qing, there should be a limit to your presumptuousness. I am the emperor, who dares to say no to me behind my back? Don't say such things next time."
"Yes, Your Majesty is the emperor. His Majesty has always been the only one who punishes others, but others never dare to say that His Majesty is wrong. Once the whip is whipped, the bones are smashed, and others can only kneel and thank you. Whether it hurts or not, there are other people." who cares?"
Li Guangning frowned,
"Du Qing, what exactly do you want to say?"
"A subject is a subject, and your majesty is the emperor. Logically, it is impossible for me to say this to your majesty in this lifetime."
A smile bloomed on Du Yuzhang's lips, like a poppy, slowly blooming on a moonlit night.
"But if His Majesty likes me so much that he wants to save his life at all costs, then it will be different."
"Du Qing!"
"What? Your Majesty, do you want to gag the subject again? I failed to strangle the subject just now. This time, if Your Majesty puts more effort into it, maybe it will be done." Du Yuzhang caressed his neck with a pair of slender fingers, which were bruised and swollen and raised high , is shocking.
"Your Majesty, come here. Your Majesty is so powerful that I can never break free. If Your Majesty wants to, it will only take a moment."
"Du Yuzhang!"
Li Guangning's face turned red.Not just resentment, but anger—but looking at the stiff marks on his neck, he suppressed his anger back.
"You're tired. You should go back and rest. Don't say another word! Otherwise..."
"How about otherwise?"
Du Yuzhang suddenly broke out of Li Guangning's arms.He fixed his eyes on Li Guangning,
"Otherwise, His Majesty will imprison the minister in the bedroom and stay up for another three days and three nights? Otherwise, His Majesty will use all means to punish the minister. No matter how many times the minister passes out, he will not stop? Or will His Majesty stab the minister again? Put a few peonies, let everyone in the world know that I am not a person at all, but just a plaything of your majesty, a prostitute? Your majesty, you can also push me to the street. I have been prime minister for three years, and I have offended countless enemies , there will always be someone who wants to kill the minister! At that time, His Majesty doesn’t need to pay attention to it, as long as he stands on the sidelines, he can naturally make the minister have nowhere to ask for help and die under their sticks! Even if he fails to die on the spot, His Majesty will take the minister into the bedroom Throw it aside—even if the minister is hurting to death, His Majesty will not bother! The minister is a prostitute, a lowly thing, and everything today is not what I asked for?"
"presumptuous!"
Li Guangning was furious,
"I am the monarch, you are a subject! Du Yuzhang, you are so provocative to me, have you really forgotten your identity?"
"Identity? Hahahaha, identity!"
Du Yuzhang laughed out loud,
"If I hadn't forgotten my identity, I wouldn't have ended up in such a miserable end!
The minister had forgotten it before - he also regarded the high-ranking emperor as the elder brother Ning in the East Palace back then!His Majesty!You don't know how the minister treats you, but the minister knows it himself!But what I don't know is that in His Majesty's eyes, I'm just a prostitute who doesn't deserve to die!
Up to now, your Majesty is talking about your identity with the minister?Don't worry, Your Majesty!What is Du Yuzhang's identity? Even if His Majesty will forget it, I will never forget it myself! "
——"Brother Ning"?
"Brother Ning" after three years, instantly drove away Li Guangning's anger.
Li Guangning didn't even care to listen to what Du Yuzhang said later - it was just words of resentment, so why bother? "Slave whore" "Don't dare to forget your identity" - after all, don't you just want a name?
Even the old titles in the East Palace have been moved out!
But instead of being annoyed by Du Yuzhang's presumptuousness and scheming, Li Guangning felt relieved.After all, Du Yuzhang would not have reacted so violently if he hadn't loved him deeply from the bottom of his heart.
Li Guangning thought he understood the root of everything.He straightened up suddenly, and he felt confident.
"Having said so much, Du Qing turned out to be resentful of me. Resent me for treating you as a courtier and a member of the harem, but not as my sweetheart?"
Li Guangning held Du Yuzhang in his arms, and leaned forward to kiss him.Du Yuzhang didn't move, and didn't lift his eyelids.But he didn't hide either.
Seeing him like this, Li Guangning felt that his guess was right.Only now did he feel relieved.
"If this is the case, you don't have to react so much. I was taken aback, thinking that you really did something wrong. Of course, even if you really did something wrong, you are not afraid. With my support, what are you afraid of? "
When Li Guangning said this, he felt quite complacent.
The Seventh Prince was destroyed, Xu Xiaoqiu bowed his head, how could there be anyone in Dayan who could really threaten him, Li Guangning?Now it is different from the past, he can really open heaven and earth, and sweep away all wastes - just a mere Du Yuzhang, as long as Li Guangning doesn't punish him, who else in the world can threaten this person?
Right, that is it!This person's life is his own, he will die only if he wants him to die, and he will live if he wants him to live... What is Xu Xiaoqiu?It is impossible for anyone to kill him!
"Come on, let me have a look. Du Yuzhang, Du Yuzhang, for the sake of mere love, you can't hold on to your decency, you're going to be so hysterical."
Li Guangning pinched Du Yuzhang's chin.As before, he treated this man as a toy and fiddled with his face at will.
But this time, Du Yuzhang's eyes were cold, and he knocked off his hand.
"What, lost your temper?"
"I don't have a temper." Du Yuzhang said indifferently, "I just feel a little bit of emotion - it seems that love is really not a good thing. Your Majesty, what a person who can't rub the sand in his eyes, but now he is blinded by love. Lianchen rebelled so blatantly, you can ignore it!"
"Du Yuzhang!"
Li Guangning's expression changed a little.
"I have already told you that you are not allowed to mention this matter again! Why, you dare not even listen to my words?"
"Why should I listen to His Majesty? Is it about righteousness? I have long been a traitor and traitor. I betrayed Your Majesty three years ago and turned to the Seventh Prince! This, your Majesty said it yourself! Are you talking about personal affairs? If there is an affair, yes It can make people endure humiliation, and no matter how many hardships they have to endure, they will enjoy it... It's a pity that I don't have any love for Your Majesty."
Du Yuzhang laughed, mockingly.
"The emperor of Dayan, a generation of kings! But because he likes the minister, he is so cowardly! Not to mention denying his feelings for the minister, he even dares to admit that the minister is really rebellious and deserves to be killed!"
"You did not rebel!"
