The emperor was in a good mood. He not only ate a lot of mutton for his face, but also drank a lot.The ministers enjoyed themselves even more. After the banquet, everyone was not restrained. They were a lot more courageous than usual, and they became less and less disciplined.

For example, Mr. Yushi sitting next to Yan Xichao.When he was sober, he would never have dared to provoke this celestial-looking but unsmiling cold beauty, but now he is hanging shoulder to shoulder with Yan Xichao, talking nonsense.

"Hi... I heard that the general is nearly [-] years old, but he has never been married, and he doesn't even have a caring woman around him. It's a pity." Lord Yushi sighed.

Yan Xichao pushed Yu Shi away, "My lord is drunk."

Lord Yushi waved his hands indiscriminately, "Hey, general, there are many talented and beautiful women in my house, who can sing and dance well, and are careful and gentle. If the general likes it, I can..."

Before Yan Xichao could answer, Gu Yongnian, who was standing behind Yan Xichao and waiting on him, hurriedly said, "Our general is determined to make contributions and repay the favor of the emperor, how can he be bound by the love of his son and daughter now?" Gu Yongnian turned to Yan Xichao expectantly, "Am I right, General?"

Yan Xichao glanced at Gu Yongnian, and then said to the maid beside him, "My lord is drunk, help him down."

At this time, the emperor was also slightly drunk, with some headaches, and he was in a daze, but his consciousness was still clear.The old eunuch whispered beside him: "Your Majesty, you are drunk, go back to the palace to rest early."

The emperor pointed to Chu Quan who was enjoying the song and dance, "Aiqing..."

"The minister is here."

"Help me back to rest."

"……Yes."

The emperor was considered tall, and he leaned on Chu Quan. After walking for a while, Chu Quan couldn't take it anymore, so he asked others for help: "Elder-in-law, come and help me."

Just as the old eunuch was about to step forward, the emperor waved his hand and muttered, "No, only Chuquan."

The old eunuch and Chu Quan looked at each other helplessly, and Chu Quan had no choice but to continue to support the emperor walking in alone.After finally arriving at the bedroom, the maid came up to wait on the emperor to take a bath and change his clothes. Chu Quan finally breathed a sigh of relief, the emperor had not told him to leave, so he had to wait in the outer hall.

After a while, the emperor called Chu Quan in again.After taking a bath, the emperor woke up quite a bit, his eyes were still steamed, and he just looked straight at Chu Quan. "Aiqing...Chu Quan..."

Chu Quan walked up to the emperor, "Your Majesty is here, what are your orders? Are you thirsty?"

"Well, your roast lamb today is delicious, I like it very much."

Chu Quan hooked the corner of his mouth, "Just as long as you like it."

The emperor's watery eyes were full of emotion, and he looked at Chu Quan meaningfully, "The things I like are not just the food from your hands. It's just that those are not enough, far from enough. Aiqing, you Do you know what I want?"

Chu Quan lowered his eyes, "I don't know."

"No," said the emperor firmly, "you know."

Chu Quan sighed softly, "Your Majesty, you are really drunk."

"Chu Quan, I first fell in love with you because you didn't look at other people, you dared to do things that others dared not do, and you dared to say things that others dared not to say." The emperor smiled while talking, his eyebrows and eyes were gentle, which was a bit touching , "Since I ascended the throne, no one dared to call me by my name. I haven't heard my name for a long time. Can you call me?"

After a while of silence, Chu Quan said softly: "I dare not."

The emperor's face darkened. They are all smart people, and some things don't have to be said to understand.For example, now, Chu Quan already knew the emperor's affection for him, and the emperor also knew the answer Chu Quan gave him.

"If Your Majesty has no other orders, I will leave first."

The emperor didn't want to face Chu Quan's face again, so he waved his hand to let people go down.

After Chu Quan left, the emperor's people were terribly dark. After sitting for a while, he suddenly grabbed a porcelain cup and dropped it. The maids and eunuchs turned pale in fright and knelt down.

The old eunuch had followed the emperor for many years, so he naturally knew what the emperor was thinking. "Your Majesty, please don't be angry. Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven of Yan. Who can you want? This Lord Chu is a bit arrogant, but as long as His Majesty says something, the servant will do it immediately, and I guarantee that Young Master Chu will obediently obey His Majesty's words."

The emperor said irritably: "It's not that I want to arrest him for imprisonment."

The old eunuch thought about it and understood.The Emperor Ganqing really moved his mind and fell in love with that Lord Chu. He said again: "Then, did your Majesty tell Lord Chu what you think? If Lord Chu knows that Your Majesty likes him so much, he will be very moved."

The emperor sighed, "Some things don't have to be said."

"How do you know if you don't try?"

The emperor's heart moved, and he stood up, "Change clothes for me, I want to go out."

There is a courtyard in the palace where Chu Quan lives. The courtyard is full of sweet-scented osmanthus.Holding hot tea, Chu Quan looked dissatisfied at Fei Chen who was still standing by the window, "Hurry up and go to bed, it's getting late."

Fei Chen turned his head, frowned and said, "But, that general is still standing in the yard."

"Oh, let him stand if he wants to."

"He keeps looking in this direction, is he looking for something with me?"

Chu Quan took a sip of tea and said with a sneer, "He's the general, and I'm just a handyman in the Sanskrit Temple. What can he do with me?"

Fei Chen hesitated for a while and said, "But he is a general after all. Why don't we invite him in and ask him if there is anything wrong, we can also..."

Chu Quan suddenly put down the cup in his hand.Fei Chen sensed Chu Quan's displeasure, and called out flatteringly: "Chu Quan, I..."

"come here."

Fei Chen had just walked a few steps when he was pulled over by Chu Quan.Chu Quan asked Feichen to rest on his lap, and put his chin on Feichen's shoulder, "You care so much about that general, do you have a crush on him?"No wonder, after all, he has a pretty face. "

Fei Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "How is it possible?"

"In that case, let's stop discussing him." Chu Quan kissed Feichen's tender cheek, "Let's rest."

Feichen nodded with a blushing face.

Chu Quan hugged the warm body in his arms, stroked Feichen's long hair, and opened his dark eyes in the darkness.

—Look, it's easy to find someone who will never betray him, who will never hurt him, as long as he wants.Anyway, he will not fall in love with anyone again, no matter who it is, as long as he is loyal to him, the rest is not important.

The emperor came to the door and stopped abruptly.

The moon was as cool as water, and a slender and straight figure stood under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, looking at the window without any light motionless.

The emperor recognized that the man was his most trusted general who had made outstanding achievements many times.The emperor was somewhat puzzled, and stepped forward, "Ai Qing?"

Yan Xichao was not frightened, turned around slowly, and saluted the emperor, "Your Majesty."

"It's late at night, what is Aiqing doing here?"

"Return to Your Majesty, the minister at the banquet drank too much, so he came here to blow sober up."

The emperor raised his eyebrows, "Here?"

"Well, I don't know where this is, but I just think it's fragrant and refreshing."

The emperor took a deep breath and said with a smile: "Ai Qing is right. But you'd better rest early, tomorrow I will see you, a great general, show your skills."

"The minister obeys the order."

The emperor nodded and walked in with a few eunuchs.

Yan Xichao looked at his back, tightly holding the sword in his hand, his eyes were full of murderous intent.

"Chu Quan?" Feichen sat up and called out in a daze, "Why are you up again? Stand by the window and be careful of the cold." He was about to get up.

Chu Quan walked back to the bed and pushed Feichen back. "You go to sleep, I'll pick you up outside."

"Pick me up?" Fei Chen was fully awake, "Your Majesty? It's so late, could it be something important? Chu Quan, you..."

Chu Quan smiled, "It's none of your business, you should go to bed quickly."

After coaxing Fei Chen, Chu Quan changed into his clothes and came to the main hall, at which time the emperor just walked in.Chu Quan put on a surprised expression, "Your Majesty, it's so late, you..."

The emperor told everyone to retreat, strode up to Chu Quan, closed his eyes, and finally made up his mind. "I don't beat around the bush. I ask you, I like it, do you accept it?"

"His Majesty……"

"I don't want to listen to your reasons, I want to listen to your answer."

"Does your majesty want anyone? As long as your majesty looks at you and smiles, there are plenty of beauties who will climb onto your majesty's bed."

The emperor shook his head, and took a few steps closer to narrow the distance between the two, "But those are not you."

Chu Quan looked at the emperor, a smile appeared on his too pale face. "Your Majesty really likes me?"

The emperor said seriously: "You are not joking."

"I dare to ask, how much does His Majesty like me?"

"I like it so much... I want to marry you as my wife and never separate."

"But, doesn't Your Majesty already have a queen?"

The emperor was taken aback, "That... that's different. I only have respect for the queen."

"I heard that the queen has been pregnant for several months. If I hear what your majesty says, I must be very sad."

When Chu Quan said this, the emperor felt a little ashamed, but he still said confidently: "The emperor already has three thousand in the harem, but I am willing to give all the three thousand favors to you alone."

Chu Quan nodded, "Your Majesty is right, you can have three thousand in the harem, one more than me is not much, and one less than me is a lot. I believe that Your Majesty is sincere to me, but I can't just be one of His Majesty's." Moan/favor."

The emperor said anxiously: "Of course you won't be!"

"Oh? No? Could it be that Your Majesty will make me your empress?"

The emperor was speechless immediately, and he knew in his heart that it was impossible.

For some reason, Chu Quan suddenly remembered that someone promised to make him his queen, and the scene at that time was somewhat similar to the present.He asked two men the same question and got very different answers.

A burst of bitterness flooded my heart.

Chu Quan calmed down and said: "I hate others' betrayal and abandonment of me the most in my life, and for me, asking me to share the love in my heart with others is an out-and-out betrayal. So no matter what your majesty asks, I have tried several times, but my answer will not change. Please come back, Your Majesty."

The emperor only felt the cold air coming up slowly from the soles of his feet, gradually enveloping him, even his fingertips were icy cold.The composure that an emperor should have disappeared without a trace at this moment. He didn't dare to look at Chu Quan's face, and he didn't dare to stay here any longer. In the end, he could only... fled in despair.

This is undoubtedly the greatest shame for him as an emperor.
