let me go, i'm not pregnant

But someone's expression is honest: I'm serious.

Luo Chen: "..."

Chang Xin was not only very serious, but also looked at Luo Chen with that expectant look: "Your Majesty, taste it quickly, see if it tastes good?"

Luo Chen was surprised. He usually cared about making cakes, but he never looked forward to his evaluation so much. Why did his temperament change today?

And... still doing it so ugly?

He picked up a piece of pastry, saw that the shape was not very good, took a bite, and couldn't help frowning.

But seeing the long-awaited gaze cast on him again, he forced his frown to relax: "It's... not bad, it's the same as you usually do."

Hearing this, Changxin, who was supposed to be happy, suddenly lowered his face, angrily picked up the clothes and mask at the side, shook his sleeves and went out.

Luo Chen sat at the table, the pastry in his hand trembled, and fell onto the table with a clatter.

Not happy to praise her?

Did something offend her today?

Luo Chen thought about this, and suddenly remembered that he hadn't asked about last night. He was in a hurry to get up, and his eyes glanced at the table inadvertently, and saw that there seemed to be a corner of a note sticking out of the pastry.

He broke it from the middle and took out the note, but saw that it said "I'll see you in the back garden tonight, I have something to say."

The handwriting was flamboyant, as if it had been written indiscriminately in a hurry.

Changxin knows how to read, but she doesn't write very much. Luo Chen also forgot her handwriting for a while, just wondering why Changxin didn't just say something, but asked him to go to the back garden at night?

What?

Luo Chen pressed his forehead with one hand, and ate a few more cakes. Seeing that there was nothing hidden in the other cakes, and it was too unpalatable, he simply went back to bed and slept for a while.

early morning.

Luo Chen recovered from his illness a lot, and he became more comfortable in handling affairs, but when he glanced over, he saw a man standing upright in the court hall, his eyes almost fused together.

The colleague next to him caught a glimpse of Luo Chen's gaze, only to realize that one of his old friends was sleeping early in the morning, so he quickly pushed his shoulder against him.

That's why Xingzhi opened his eyes, his blank gaze touched Luo Chen, and a bit of disgust suddenly flashed across him.

Luo Chen: "???"

He hasn't disliked people yet, but people have disliked him?

He ground his teeth, a little unhappy: "I see that the general seems to be in poor condition, but is he in good health?"

So Xingzhi was called out, so he saluted: "Return to the emperor, I checked the files all night yesterday, I forgot the time, and my spirit is not good, I hope the emperor will make amends."

Although he didn't believe it, but since he said so, Luo Shi could only ask: "Then what's the problem?"

"Yes." Therefore Xingzhi raised his head, what he was waiting for was this sentence!

Afterwards, Gu Xingzhi brought out the dossiers he stayed up late last night to read, and explained each and every dossier in detail. In fact, each dossier is an ordinary matter after settlement, but he purposely teases people's appetites, making them really curious, isn't it? Find out what's new.

In the blink of an eye, when it came to the sunset on the western mountain, Luo Chen saw him talking, and felt his mouth was dry, so he had to interrupt him: "So what the general said is true, but it's getting late, if you have any other questions, I can prepare the memorandum tomorrow..."

While speaking, Gu Xingzhi showed a stunned and embarrassed look and said: "Go back to the emperor, I know, but I really have something important to report, if I wait until tomorrow, I'm afraid I'm afraid There is uneasiness."

Hearing this, all the ministers were constipated.

Seeing that he was going to continue talking, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to go back when the imperial confinement time came.

All resentful eyes were cast on Luo Chen.

Luo Chen suddenly felt tight in his chest.

He had no choice but to support his forehead: "Okay, then General, you stay and report later before leaving. The other ministers... all go back first."

All the ministers hurriedly left and scattered, only Luo Chen and Gu Xingzhi were left in the huge court hall.

So Xingzhi used his ability to talk nonsense again, and dragged Luo Chen to chat until the time of the palace confinement, and then he looked stunned again: "Minister, it wasn't on purpose!"

Luo Chen: "..."

With a blank expression on his face, he assigned a eunuch to lead the old man to live in the palace temporarily.

So he wandered around, before leaving, he suddenly thought of something, stopped and asked: "Your Majesty, I wonder if there is any progress in that matter?"

Luo Chen was taken aback, looked up from behind the desk, saw his expression, and then remembered what he had promised that day, and his face sank again: "Zhen... will naturally send someone to look for it."

"But the emperor doesn't seem to have asked about him yet?"

Luo Chen: "..."

With a blank expression on his face, he dismissed the others and asked, "Then General, tell me everything you know."

Ru Xingzhi's eyes moved slightly, a little strange, this matter does not need to dismiss the subordinates, does he already know that he knows it?

His expression also became serious: "Although I don't know the person's name and where he lives, I know that he was tricked into going to Tianxi Tower that day."

Luo Shi's expression changed slightly.

Falling into the eyes of the past, he became guilty again.

"Then tell me, who tricked him?"

Most likely you.

Gu Xingzhi said with his eyes, but his mouth said: "I don't know, but I and him were plotted against by someone that day, and that person probably wanted to insult him with this."

Luo Chen clenched his hand hanging under the table tightly.

He took a deep breath and suppressed his anger: "What else? Have you found any evidence to prove his identity?"

So Xingzhi thought about it for a while, and quickly said, "Yes."

Luo Chen's eyes lit up a little.

Luo Chen originally wanted to take this opportunity to ask Gu Xingzhi to hand over his jade pendant.

As a result, Gu Xingzhi took out a mask and took out a half-face mask from his arms.

"This is the mask he wore that day."

Luo Chen: "...There is only one mask, is it gone?"

So Xingzhi said: "There is also a jade pendant."

"Leave it to me, I will help you—"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Gu Xingzhi: "However, I have more intuitive evidence than the jade pendant."

Luo Chen's eyes dimmed, and he felt a sense of suffocation in his heart. He didn't even dare to ask further: "Is... what kind of evidence?"

"He has royal ointment on his body. It is a spoil of war that I got when I fought against the fortress. I found out last night that this ointment was not rewarded to anyone, which means..."

Luo Chen felt cold all over.

He looked at Gu Xingzhi in surprise.

In the next second, Gu Xingzhi said: "That person is probably someone close to the emperor, or he rewarded him casually but didn't record it, so I think that the emperor only needs to think carefully, and he should be able to know his identity. "

Luo Chen: "..."

He thought about looking at Gu Xingzhi's resolute face, and couldn't see whether this person had discovered it or not.

but……

Shouldn't it have been discovered?Otherwise, you should not dare to pursue this matter.

Luo Chen responded: "I don't remember this clearly, I have to think about it carefully, you can go back and rest."

So Xingzhi bowed his hands and saluted: "Yes."

He walked out of the palace gate, but there was a strange emotion in his heart.

He always felt that there was something wrong with his analysis, but he couldn't tell where it was.

But anyway, we made an appointment to meet you in the back garden tonight. If the pastry really fell into the young master's mouth, he should come, right?

Thinking of it this way, I feel a lot better.

Not far behind, Luo Chen stared at the leaving figure, thinking for a long time.

After a while, his body suddenly warmed up, he came back to his senses, saw that he had a long heart, and said, "Why did you come here?"

Changxin looked at the road where no one was seen, then looked at Luo Chen, and said with a flat mouth: "If you don't care about the emperor, the emperor will probably get cold again, how dare the slaves keep watching?"

Luo Chen smiled lightly, tucked the black robe inside, turned around and walked into the room: "Zhen, I have a sense of proportion. By the way, where is Chang'an?"

"Let's deal with that eunuch. He died in the palace. He has to be taken care of at home. Chang'an said that he might be able to find out the old party of the former prime minister."

That's the case, but Luo Chen didn't hold out hope. Back then, the late emperor checked almost everything he could, but he did everything to the extreme for everything that might leave him hidden dangers, so he aroused a lot of resentment.

But after such a long time, those people acted, doesn't it mean...

They can't wait anymore?

Luo Chen sat back on his chair and continued to process the memorial.

When the new emperor takes office, there are always a lot of official affairs to be dealt with. Unexpectedly, at this moment, someone will always propose a draft to fill the harem, not to mention occupying the position of the memorial, which makes him lose his mood.

Since he realized that he was different from others, he stopped these thoughts.

When the former emperor was still there, he asked him what he thought, and he said bluntly that he had no intention of succeeding to the throne. At that time, the emperor also thought about cultivating another one, or if Luo Ming could abandon those old things, he could also be recruited. Include to be selected.

It's just that these plans have not been implemented yet, the first emperor suddenly became seriously ill and left hastily.

And Luo Shi had to bite the bullet and continue.

In the middle of writing, Luo Chen suddenly remembered something, and said to Changqing: "Go and give Changqing—"

He paused suddenly, then raised his head, there was no sign of Changxin in the room.

I don't know where I went.

Only then did Luo Chen recall the note in the morning, feeling strange, Chang Xin was still in the house just now, if there is anything to say, just say it face to face, why did he ask him to go to the back garden?

Is there something bad to say here?

Luo Zhenxin continued to approve the memorial, thought for a while, put the things aside, wrapped himself in the robe and went out.

He strolled all the way to the back garden, thinking about what happened recently, which made Changxin change like this.

By the way, I haven't asked her clearly about what happened last night, but it seems that there is nothing unusual about Ru Xingzhi today.

Should... have done nothing, right?

His little heart panicked unconsciously, always feeling as if there was some danger.

In a trance, people have arrived in the back garden.

At night, the dew is heavy, the surroundings are not very bright, and there is no one in the back garden. Luo Chen called: "Long heart?"

Not far away, Gu Xingzhi heaved a sigh of relief when he heard a familiar voice, his heart came out, and he smiled and went forward: "Young Master, long time no see?"

Luo Chen's footsteps stopped and his body froze.

He never thought that Gu Xingzhi was here!

Therefore, Xingzhi originally wanted to go directly, but when he was about to meet Luo Shi, he noticed that his body was slightly stiff, as if he had been frightened.

He quickly withdrew his hand, and suddenly realized that although it was an accident, the other party definitely didn't want to bring it up again.

But how could it be assumed that it never happened without mentioning it?

He had to be careful and said: "Although... that day we...we were plotted to spend the whole night together, but...but I didn't mean to dislike you. As I said, I will be responsible for you, as long as you are willing. I know You were calculated that day, if you still stay by his side now, you will definitely suffer, after the matter is over, I will find another reason to let you go..."

Luo Zhen didn't say a word, so Xing Zhi was afraid of scaring him, so he had to face his back and try his best to speak softly: "I Xing Zhi, son of General Zhen Guo, if you are in the palace, there must be someone I've heard that being with me can keep you safe for the rest of your life, and you don't have to worry about me hindering your pursuit... the person who really suits you."

Luo Chen's heart trembled.

"Although it's offensive, may I know your name?"

Luo Chen moved his fingers and looked at the distant scenery in confusion.

He really wanted to escape.

"Young Master?" Gu Xingzhi took another tentative step forward, but Luo Zhen seemed to have eyes behind his back, and immediately took a step forward.

So Xingzhi was dumbfounded, he touched his face, he was handsome and unrestrained, so he couldn't be so scary, right?

If you are really angry, you can beat him up, why don't you even let him see you?

Speaking of this, Gu Xingzhi remembered the mask, and he quickly took it out of his arms and handed it over.

"If you still don't want to see me with your true face, you can wear this mask."

Luo Chen lowered his eyes, saw the mask stretched out from the side, and thought to himself that it's a good thing he didn't take it away just now, otherwise he wouldn't be able to get away right now.

He took it with trembling fingers. After putting on the mask, he closed the black robe again. Under the dim light, the other party must not be able to see the dragon robe on his body clearly——

He just needs to bluntly refuse and do what he wants.

Luo Chen breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and was about to speak, but then his expression froze.

Subconsciously took a step back.

But I saw Gu Xingzhi knelt in front of him, cupped his hands and said: "I made a mistake and I should take it. If you hate me and complain, I can accept it. It is also my sincerity to ask the emperor for an edict. I only hope that you can give me an answer. Or marry me, or..."

He took out a dagger from his pocket and handed it to Luo Chen: "My life is in your hands."

Luo Chen was completely stunned.

The dagger in his hand fell to the ground with a bang.

Seeing the dagger fell to the ground, Gu Xingzhi quickly raised his head, and saw Luo Chen took two steps back: "I... am a man."

So say: "I know."

"Between a man and a man..."

Therefore, Xingzhi was firm: "So what? The emperors of all dynasties were not men without good manners."

Luo Chen was taken aback again.

So Xingzhi picked up the dagger and stood up, reached out and pulled him into his arms: "As long as I like it, no one will say anything."

Luo Chen's forehead was pressed against his shoulder, and he suddenly realized that he was so tall, and his forehead was a little dizzy again, probably because of too much wind blowing just now.

Therefore, Xingzhi asked: "Is the person you like... the emperor?"

Luo Chen was startled, he raised his head, his hair swept across Gu Xingzhi's chin, and he quickly shook his head: "No."

The old way: "You can talk freely in front of me, no matter whether you like the emperor or anyone else, those who hurt you can tell me."

Luo Chen made a bitter face, and now he finally understood why the old man always looked so disgusted with himself: "It's really not the emperor, and I... I don't have a sweetheart either!"

So Xingzhi was relieved when he saw him speak, and he heard his denial of his sweetheart, so he asked: "Who was the one who plotted against you that day?"

"Yes..." Luo Zhen felt slightly displeased, isn't it you?

If it wasn't for your name written on it, and the attitude that I would rather destroy the country than assist, would I not go?

Luo Chen originally wanted to just talk nonsense about a person's name, but when the words came to his mouth, thinking of his attitude of treating himself as a villain these days, he decided to do the same thing.

"Actually, I received a note saying that Master Gu is in Tianxi Tower." Under the mask, Luo Shi smiled coldly, "Although Master Gu is not in the imperial city, he is famous far and wide. They all adore you, and even spend money to buy your whereabouts. When I was in the palace, I heard your name most often. The emperor also believed in your ability and praised you. A few days ago, I heard that you have arrived in the imperial city. But I haven't come to the palace for a few days. And I just received that note, so..."

So Xingzhi was stunned.

He knew that he was popular, but he didn't know how popular he was.

and……

The person in front of him actually went to Tianxi Tower for himself?

so?

Is this poor little guy being tricked?

Literally?

The poor little guy who was deceived was afraid that he would not believe it, so he added: "I bought it in the name of the emperor, so... those people probably want to deceive the emperor."

Therefore: "..."

He hesitated, and touched Luo Chen's head.

This poor little bastard is really a bit stupid.

but……

Since I don't like other people, it's easy to handle: "What's your name, I'll go to the emperor to ask for you tomorrow."

Luo Chen: "..."

Want to marry the emperor?

He shook his head in disapproval.

So Xingzhi didn't understand: "Afraid of gossip outside? No one dares to gossip about my old behavior!"

But Luo Zhen only shook his head, pushed him away and took three steps back: "No, no one dares to gossip about my status as a young master, but I am someone close to the emperor, so I naturally want to serve the emperor. You want me to go, I can't worry about the emperor."

He lowered his head: "The emperor's country is not stable, how can I have the heart to leave the emperor?"

It means, hurry up and win glory for the country for me, do your job well, don't drag the case files that have been unraveled by the predecessors here every day to analyze, analyze and analyze with me, okay!

Unexpectedly, it fell into the ears of Gu Xing, but it became another meaning——

The emperor's marriage is undecided, how dare I advance it?

It turns out that we have to wait for the emperor to become the empress.

So Xingzhi nodded, he still can't completely rule out the possibility that this person likes the emperor, so after the emperor is finished, if he is happy, the emperor will probably not doubt anything if he wants someone again.

"Then you have to tell me, what is your name, how can I find you?" Gu Xingzhi felt more and more fond of this poor little bastard, but it was a pity that he still couldn't see his face and didn't know more about it.

"I..." Luo Chen's mind went blank, and he made up a name casually, "Long Years."

"Okay, long years."

Luo Chen blinked and blinked: "I'm a palace servant next to the emperor. I'm usually not outside, so you can't see me very much. If there's something to do, something to do..."

Loszka is stuck, he really can't think of a way to get in touch with this "long-term".

It's a bit strange because of the reason: "I thought you were a child of some family, but you are a palace man?"

Luo Chen was stunned: "Yes."

The way to do it: "But I saw a long-term heart that day, and she said you are her master?"

Luo Chen gritted his teeth, and said in his heart that you really have a long heart, you are so courageous, you did something bad behind his back, and you gave the old friend a chance to make an appointment with him!

He gritted his teeth and said: "I am an orphan saved by the late emperor. Later, I studied with the emperor as a companion. After that, I stayed in the palace all the time. She always regarded me and the emperor as her master, so she kept calling me. master."

"So that's how it is." Fortunately, Gu Xingzhi didn't know much about the affairs of the palace, so he was fooled.

So Xingzhi asked again: "Then how can I see you?"

He paused for a moment and asked, "Can you leave the palace?"

It should be possible, after all, Tianxilou has gone.

Luo Chen's face darkened a little, is it not enough to want to marry him, but also want him to have a tryst in the palace?

The ghost knows what will happen when he leaves the palace, so he doesn't want to go!

Luo Chen pulled Gu Xingzhi's paw away, and said: "If you have anything to do, you can write to me and ask Chang Xin to write to me. It's not convenient for me to leave the palace, so it's easy to attract people's attention."

Gu Xingzhi's eyes were darkened, and he looked a little disappointed.

"Okay." He thought to himself, since Chang An couldn't get out, wouldn't it be good if he came in?

Anyway, the emperor's ability is not very good, he is an assistant minister, and he has a lot of ways to live in.

The two have their own ghosts, thinking they can make the other relax their vigilance.

After Luo Chen finished speaking, he was anxious to escape, so he found an excuse to escape.

Before leaving, he still forgot to find the old man to return the jade pendant.

Gu Xingzhi, who was still standing there, frowned again as he smelled the scent left on his body.

Although it is a companion reader, the fragrance on this body is too strong, it doesn't seem to be from someone else's body.

So, the reason why the balm is given to a companion without deducting the inventory is that they share a piece?

Although it was the second meeting, Gu Xingzhi felt a little green on his head.

He walked back to the palace with a dark face.

On the other side, Luo Chen returned to the palace, closed the door immediately, and shouted into the empty room: "Long heart? You come out!"

The voice fell, and after a while, Changxin came out slowly.

Luo Chen untied the black robe, and threw it on a chair beside him angrily: "Long heart! I told you not to mess with your old ways!"

Chang Xin feels aggrieved: "The slave only asked him to prepare cakes for the emperor, and did not tell him the identity of the emperor."

Luo Shi raised her forehead and hid the note in the pastry, could she still see it with her long heart?And the clothes and the human-leather mask in the morning were obviously taught by Changxin himself, otherwise, no matter how bad the taste is, it would not just be a matter of quantity.

Luo Shi still completely thought that Changxin was the girl he had grown up with since he was a child, so simple that he was a little stubborn and even silly, but he didn't expect to be clever.

He sat down on the chair and felt his head hurt more and more. It must be the wind and cold.

"When Chang'an comes back, you go and receive the punishment yourself." Luo Chen said softly, then got up and walked to the bed again, halfway there, paused, and then said, "If the old man asks you about me, you Just say that I am a long-term student, and the emperor will accompany me to study, so don't let him doubt it."

Changxin let out an "oh", and looked at Luo Chen's figure in confusion.

She saw what happened tonight from the sidelines. The two were hugging each other. She thought she was going to marry the old man and enter the palace tomorrow, but she became so angry when she came back.

So, she got it wrong?
