Raise an emperor as a villain

Chapter 70 Love Rivals Meet?

Duan Muyan and Ming Jue had only been married for one year, but Ming Jue never gave Duan Muyan any real favor from the very beginning.The woman's mind is delicate and sensitive, even if she didn't notice it at first, but after a long time, she can see some clues.The concubines in the harem were not enough to pose any threat, they were just poor women like her, so Duan Muyan and Ming Jue's few concubines got along fairly well.

Now Mingjue hasn't visited Kunhe Palace for a month, and she doesn't even bother to maintain the superficial rule of seeing her once a month. The young queen couldn't bear the loneliness, so she had to make lotus seed porridge to visit Mingjue in the imperial study. .

"Empress, look at that person in front." Hong Liao is Duan Muyan's dowry maid, and now the chief maid in charge of Kunhe Palace. At this moment, Feng, who is serving the empress, went to the imperial study, but inadvertently saw Lu Hengxiu. So he went to Budun and talked to Duan Muyan.

Duan Muyan raised the curtain with her slender and white hands like onion roots, and she saw a man in blue second-rank civil official clothing in front of her, following a little eunuch to the imperial study.

The man Duan Muyan saw was exactly Lu Hengxiu who was stopped by Mingjue's men after he came down to court, and he was summoned by Mingjue to go to the imperial study at this moment.

"Red Polygonum, who is that man? What do you want me to see him for?" Duan Muyan lived in the deep palace for a long time and had never met Lu Hengxiu, so she had such doubts.

Hong Liao said resentfully, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid she doesn't know the identity of that person, right? He is Lu Hengxiu from Hu Meihuo."

Duan Muyan was shocked when she heard the words, and tightened the plain brocade handkerchief in her hand, then, as if she had made up her mind, she plucked up her courage and said to him, "Red Polygonum, I want to catch up with him today."

Red Polygonum got the order from its master, and immediately yelled at the eunuch who was carrying the phoenix: "Didn't you hear what your mother said? Why don't you hurry up and step up."

The eunuchs immediately quickened their pace when they heard the words, and Hong Liao followed closely with small steps.Duan Muyan clutched the armrest tightly in the wobbly phoenix, and her heart was restless.

After a while, he caught up with Lu Hengxiu who was advancing calmly, but the eunuch who led the way recognized Feng Huo first, knelt down and kowtowed, "May the queen be blessed and safe."

Seeing this, Lu Hengxiu immediately reacted, and said respectfully as a courtier: "All blessings, empress."

Duan Muyan looked down at Lu Hengxiu through a thin layer of veil.The person in front of her was low-browed, pleasing to the eye, and well-mannered, but he was not as domineering as the rumors she had heard on weekdays.

"Mother, he dare not offend your Fengyi. You are the queen of the mother's world, so he should obediently salute." Hong Liao seemed to see what Duan Muyan was thinking, and fanned the flames from the side.

Duan Muyan didn't pay attention to Polygonum vulgaris, and said calmly: "Lord Lu, get up."

When Lu Hengxiu heard the words and stood up, Duan Muyan could see his face clearly.The young man in her twenties in front of her was not as stunning as she imagined, but at most had clear eyebrows.Duan Muyan watched, feeling a little puzzled in her heart, how such a man who was older than the emperor and whose appearance was not outstanding, could firmly grasp the emperor's heart.

Although Duan Muyan was a little sad, she didn't show any signs of it on her face, and she didn't say anything to embarrass Lu Hengxiu. She just made a gesture for Feng Lu to move forward.But Hong Liao looked back at Lu Hengxiu unhappily, as if aggrieved for her master.

At this time, Lu Hengxiu couldn't get ahead of Feng Yu, so he could only walk slowly behind the queen.

Although Duan Muyan is the mother of a country, she still has to wait to be notified when she arrives at a place like the Imperial Study where the emperor handles official duties.

When Lu Hengxiu arrived, Duan Muyan was standing on the porch at the entrance of the imperial study room, and Hong Liao was talking with her.Lu Hengxiu was summoned by Ming Jue, so naturally he didn't have to wait for the notification, but followed the little eunuch into the imperial study room. When he passed by Duan Muyan, he still saluted respectfully.

After entering, before saluting, he saw Ming Jue waiting for him with a smile. Lu Hengxiu was overjoyed for a while, but he was still courteous, and wanted to kneel down and salute: "Your Majesty..."

But before he finished speaking, he was stopped by Ming Jue, "There is no need to salute, and there is no one else here."

After Mingjue said that, Lu Hengxiu realized that there was not even a servant in the huge room, so he suddenly felt like he had fallen into a trap, and seeing Mingjue's smile, he also felt that he was playing some crooked ideas.

"Your Majesty, the empress is waiting for you to summon me outside!" Ming Jue pulled Lu Hengxiu into his arms, but said inappropriate words.

"Why are you mentioning her at this time?" Ming Jue was a little displeased when he heard the words, "She doesn't wink, why are you too?"

Seeing Ming Jue angry, Lu Hengxiu didn't feel scared, instead he persuaded him nonchalantly: "The empress is the mother of the country, and she is not at fault. Standing in the porch all the time will inevitably spread some rumors."

"Hmph, it's not that I asked her to come here. If she wants to wait, let her wait outside. When she can't wait any longer, she will naturally go back." Ming Jue said displeasedly, and then sat down on the chair again. , pulled Lu Hengxiu into his arms, leaned close to Lu Hengxiu's ear and said ambiguously: "In short, I purposely found an opportunity to meet you today, even if the queen was waiting outside, others would just wait for you." You can praise me for putting my heart into government affairs."

"If your majesty can't find time for a while, you might as well ask the empress to bring the things in first." Lu Hengxiu is not the kind of person who is full of sympathy, and he just doesn't want to cause resentment towards the empress. That's all.However, he does have some compassion for the Queen, but this compassion is not worth mentioning against the background of other interests.

"That's all, let her come in," Ming Jue said impatiently, unable to bear Lu Hengxiu's repeated persuasion.

"Chang Ping," Ming Jue called out.

As soon as the words were finished, Chang Ping appeared out of nowhere. Lu Hengxiu, with a thin skin, struggled to get up from Ming Jue's arms, and hurriedly straightened his crumpled official uniform.

"Go and invite the queen in." Ming Jue said to Chang Ping.

Chang Ping took the order to invite, and after a while, he heard ringing voices, it was the empress who walked in.As she moved the lotus steps lightly, the steps above her head swayed back and forth, and a swirling golden light dazzled people.

"My concubine pays respects to the emperor," Duan Muyan stood still in front of the imperial case, bowing her hands in greeting.

She hadn't seen Ming Jue for more than a month, and she also missed him very much. Although she lowered her head at this moment, she still secretly peeped at the emperor's holy face with those eyes.

"What is the empress doing here?" Ming Jue asked in a deep voice, making it hard to hear the emotion.

"Chenqie...Chenqie...Chenqie wants to give the emperor a bowl of lotus seed soup," Duan Muyan said, stretching out her hand to Hong Liao in a panic, and Hong Liao hurriedly handed over the food box.

Duan Muyan took out a bowl, filled a bowl of lotus seed soup with her own hands and handed it to Ming Jue.Ming Jue reached out to take it, then took a spoonful and drank it.

"That's right, it's just that the empress is the mother of the country, so it's better not to do these cooking tasks by yourself." Ming Jue said lightly.

Duan Muyan was at a loss when she heard the words, she was full of heart but she didn't expect to be reprimanded by Ming Jue for not being dignified, she was so wronged that she almost burst into tears.

"Your Majesty, the Empress is also infatuated with the Emperor, please enlighten me." Lu Hengxiu said from the side.

Ming Jue glanced at him, with a delicate expression, he didn't continue to embarrass Duan Muyan, and silently picked up the bowl and finished the bowl of lotus seed soup.

"If the queen has nothing to do, go back first, I still have government affairs to deal with."

"Yes, that concubine has resigned." Duan Muyan said disappointedly, and then quietly retreated out.

"Jane, you are really kind, and you are helping her to speak, are you trying to pretend to be magnanimous in front of me?" Seeing the Queen leave, Ming Jue teased Lu Hengxiu.

Lu Hengxiu couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, "Your Majesty, if you have your Majesty's sincerity, why bother to compete with the women in the harem? No matter how poor a minister is, he is still a man of seven feet, so he doesn't even bother to do these things."

When Lu Hengxiu said this, he was as bright and moving as the breeze and the moon. Ming Jue couldn't help but feel happy when he saw it, and he was glad that he fell in love with such a good person.

"I know you won't fight with them, what you want to fight is in the court, don't you know it in your heart?" Ming Jue said.

In fact, he doesn't care what Lu Hengxiu is fighting for, he would rather Lu Hengxiu fight for everything.As long as Lu Hengxiu is willing to ask for it, he is willing to hold the best things in front of him with both hands.
