After wearing lotus essence

Rong Mu took Shang Cizhou up to the second floor, the lotus mahogany bed was too small, only big enough to sleep a grown man, and Shang Cizhou was tall, even sitting sideways was a bit crowded.

But his current appearance was too terrifying. Before the imperial doctor came, Uncle Dong didn't dare to speak out to persuade him.

Rong Mu took advantage of the clean water he had just used, arranged a cotton towel, stepped forward and squatted beside the bed, and wiped Shang Cizhou's blood-stained fingers.

The emperor looked fierce, but actually seemed pitiful.

Shang Cizhou didn't look at him, his eyes were fixed on the candlestick in the pavilion.

At this time, Rong Mu didn't know how to speak, after all, this place, no matter how you looked at it, was the last place Shang Cizhou wanted to face.

Everything is wrong.

Suddenly, Shang Cizhou said, "Liu Dong."

Uncle Dong hurriedly stepped forward: "Your Majesty?"

Shang Cizhou looked at him: "How many years have you been here?"

Uncle Dong was shocked, and then knelt down: "Returning to Your Majesty, this old servant has been chosen by the Empress to live in this East Palace since His Majesty was born."

Rong Mu slowly squeezed the blood-stained white handkerchief tightly, knowing what Shang Cizhou wanted to ask.

as predicted.

Shang Cizhou said: "Then you must have been here for 23 years. During these 23 years, Gu spent more than half of his time living in the East Palace, but why, Gu never knew that there were so many people who were killed by the late emperor in the East Palace. Things listed as forbidden flowers appeared, and even the lanterns at the gate were blatantly hung with a picture of a golden dragon chasing a lotus."

Liu Dong's expression gradually became pale and painful, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Return to Your Majesty, this was all...before the death of the lotus in Dashang, the East Palace specially invited the masters of the Southern Dynasties to make it."

Shang Cizhou slowly narrowed his eyes, his voice was low and cold: "Lie."

Liu Dong's arms trembled for a moment, and he didn't dare to look directly at Tian Yan, "Your Majesty, forgive me!"

Seeing this, Rong Mu moved his mouth, and before he could speak, a hidden guard flew in from outside the window.

The visitor was dressed in dark clothes, knelt down with his fists folded and said, "Your Majesty, that person's whereabouts were strange, as if he had a sorcerer's magic. He walked towards the Huguo Temple after leaving the East Palace. The subordinates chased him all the way to the gate of the Huguo Temple, but the little man The novice said that he would not let his subordinates in, saying that it would disturb the Buddhist holy land."

Shang Cizhou closed his eyes, and Rong Mu heard him take a slow breath very clearly.

Some people just have such ability, their every move affects the mood of the people around them, especially in this era, even if Shang Cizhou's voice is louder, these people will worry about losing their heads.

What's more, he was so secretive that anyone with a discerning eye knew that he was in a bad mood.

The hidden guard raised his head carefully: "Your Majesty, do you want to bring someone in to arrest him?"

Seeing Shang Cizhou's eyes vacantly locked on the carvings of the mahogany bed, he said after a long while: "No need."

Rong Mu turned his eyes sideways in surprise.

No need?

Just let it go?

Is this still Shang Ci Zhou?

Yinwei's order prohibits quick resignation, and waiting for the imperial physician's interval, Ting Zhi Que can hear the needle drop for a while.

Just when Rong Mu thought that this was the end, Shang Cizhou looked at him, then looked at Uncle Dong who was always kneeling on the ground, and smiled coldly.

"Uncle Dong..."

Liu Dong trembled all over: "I dare not be an old slave!"

But Shang Cizhou continued: "I haven't called you that for many years. You are different from Lang Xi. You are a servant arranged for me by my mother. I left you alone in the prince's mansion for seven years. Have you ever hated me?" I blame me?"

Liu Dong had already burst into tears: "Your Majesty, the Imperial Palace is the residence of the emperor, but this East Palace is a place where you can always come back. Your Majesty's keeping the old slave here is a sign of trust in the old slave."

Shang Cizhou's face turned gloomy and cold: "Gu trusts you, so why don't you tell Gu the truth?"

Liu Dong clenched his teeth tightly and almost felt a rush of blood.

Shang Cizhou: "I thought about it today, and felt a little strange in my heart, so I turned back. I didn't expect that I hadn't stepped into the East Palace for many years. I only came in this once, and I found a man who used the East Palace as a back garden. I also discovered that...for so many years, you have never mentioned to Gu how he loved the lotus flower that was banned by the late emperor."

"The traces of the carving techniques, the habit of placing the candlesticks, and these hanging paintings and decorations, I almost think that there is another me in this world. Otherwise, how can I explain that these are exactly the same as Gu's techniques?" Shang Ci Zhou's tone gradually became low and quick, "I have been on the throne for seven years, I thought I had already settled the corners of this big merchant, but I never thought that the one who teased Gu in the end was the most trusted East Palace!"

The sound of sobs suddenly sounded, and Liu Dong prostrated on the ground and kowtowed several times before he dared to speak: "The East Palace will never betray His Majesty!"

Shang Cizhou knocked over an ornament, which was made of gold inlaid with jade, and fell directly under Rong Mu's feet.

"Is this what you said you would never give up?"

Rong Mu has been silent since just now, and now he silently picked up this precious little thing, and then he heard Liu Dong continue: "It's not that I didn't say anything before, but I dare not say it! Your Majesty left this East Palace seven Years! Before leaving, I locked this place, and the last word I told the old slave was to keep the foundation. No matter whether anyone comes back, he must take good care of this place. The old slave has always followed the order, even if His Majesty has passed for many years. Donggong, I dare not slack off... Your Majesty, forgive me, this old slave does not regret the seven years of concealment!"

Shang Cizhou's anger was almost on the surface, he was easily unmoved by foreign affairs, as far as Rong Mu saw, he had never seen Shang Cizhou show such emotion when he came here.

His expression suddenly became terribly frightening: "Gu finally sensed where the strange energy lies. It turns out that Gu, like the Nandai king and Li Kong, had been entangled with this flower, but why only Gu No memory? You are an old man in Qiandi, if you can’t give a convincing reason, you will set the pavilion on fire tonight, so as not to cause further trouble.”

Uncle Dong almost turned pale with fright, knelt up and grabbed the hem of the emperor's clothes with one hand, "No, Your Majesty! Ting Zhi Que is your painstaking effort, and it must not be burned!"

Shang Cizhou stared at the chief steward of the East Palace with sharp eyes, the latter was pale and slumped, and then slowly let go of his hand.

Hiss... so crazy.

Rong Mu pinched the small bed pillow inlaid with gold and jade, thinking that this is indeed Shang Cizhou's style.

He has no doubt that Shang Cizhou is doing what he says at this moment. After all, even ordinary people will be angry if they have been cheated for many years, not to mention that Shang Cizhou is the emperor, a status that does not allow lies to exist.

Rong Mu also planned to wait for Shang Cizhou to come to him to talk about this matter, but the money is not as good as the sky, and the ghost knows why Shang Cizhou turned back that night.

Could it be that it could be because he couldn't let go of him?

Love the lotus, love the lotus, the moonlight is in the front and the double is in the back...

A death-like silence passed before Rong Mu heard Liu Dong say in a hoarse voice: "Your Majesty must not burn down the building... The reason why this old slave keeps silent is that after you left, Master Min Kong privately told this old slave that the East Palace will be a As long as you don’t answer, don’t ask questions, it’s just that the time has not come so don’t say too much. Master Min Kong also said that His Majesty is the Son of Heaven, born with the fate of the Emperor, and the instability of the Emperor’s Star will bring disaster to the world. The East Palace has already made the Emperor’s Star turbulent. There can be no second time."

Rong Mu quietly held his breath, and heard Shang Cizhou slowly ask: "What is a turmoil?"

Uncle Dong glanced at the young man standing at the corner of the bed, and said in a deep voice with his head on the ground: "Ten years ago, the Fourth Prince Shang Cixie slandered the East Palace for hiding monsters, and surrounded the Prince's Mansion with the order of the late Emperor. At that time, Your Majesty I was transferred from the capital to inspect the Lizhou border, and the incident suddenly became extremely critical, and the man protected the East Palace with his own strength, but he killed himself, so His Majesty had no ambition to live because of this matter."

Rong Mu's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously looked at Shang Cizhou, and at some point, Shang Cizhou's deep eyes had already fixed on him.

The candlelight was faint, reflecting the two of them, Rong Mu suddenly didn't dare to look any more.

But the moment when Shang Cizhou whipped Wu Zhuima and drew a knife to kill Xizuo flashed through his mind, only then did he realize that the sound of the flute was wrong and subconsciously dragged him behind him.

Shang Cizhou had such a white moonlight, why would he subconsciously protect this white lotus of unknown origin?

Shang Cixie was beaten to death because of such a thing that forced people to death and precisely stepped on the tyrant's thunder point? ?

Who is the "demon" who disappeared? Why are Liu Dong and Shang Cizhou looking at him? ? ?

He is just a delicate flower with an innocent background and a quiet life!
