I want to be a faint king [Rebirth]

The wine shop by the Liuting Bridge was the place where they came most often. Luo Chen still remembered the last time he was alone with Xiao Rong, it was on his birthday that year. He was at this place when he expressed his heartfelt love to Xiao Rong, but he never wanted to be seen by him. reject.

Therefore, this restaurant is a mixed blessing for Luo Chen.

There was still a pot of dirty wine and two dishes of side dishes in front of him, but Luo Chen was no longer the same Luo Chen as before. At this moment, his heart was full of resentment.

He still remembers when he confessed his love to Xiao Rong, he said that his ambition was in his family and country, not in the love of his children. He said it with certainty at the beginning, but now it is a different scene. Be willing to accept yourself.

It's just that his grandeur made Luo Chen feel unwilling.

"I always thought Brother Xiao was a person who wouldn't be emotional, but after all, I didn't want Brother Xiao's eyes." Luo Chen picked up the jug and poured wine for Xiao Rong, and said with a smile.

Xiao Rong sat upright, looked at Luo Chen and said: "Brother Luo is serious."

"Brother Xiao, you don't have to lie to me now. I know what kind of identity I am, so I don't dare to climb high. Now that Brother Xiao can still drink with me like before, I'm content." Luo Chen smiled slightly, After drinking the wine in the cup, the smile on his face looked natural, but after all, there was an extra layer of self-pity.

Xiao Rong drank the wine in the glass, put down the glass and asked: "If I really care about your identity, how can I bring you to the capital, take you to make a living in the name of Ding'an, and show you what I know? People? It’s just emotional things that can’t be said, and people who don’t have a fate have no fate, and it has nothing to do with identity.”

"Brother Xiao is full of words, what else do I have to say." Luo Chen drank several glasses of wine in succession, and Xiao Rong remembered that Luo Chen didn't drink alcohol in the past, even if he did, he wouldn't drink as much as he does now cup.

"You're drunk, I'll take you home." Xiao Rong said.

Luo Chen, however, cared about drinking alone, and laughed at himself: "How dare you bother brother Xiao, now I am alone and have nothing to worry about, this time I return to Beijing just to see you again."

Xiao Rong stared at the sadness covered by Luo Chen's smile, his eyes were full of water vapor, he held the wine pot tightly with both hands, his shoulders shook, although he was suppressed to the extreme, he could still hear his sobbing.

"What happened?" Xiao Rong asked.

Luo Chen finally couldn't help it, and cried with his head down: "My father... my father is gone. Although he is good at gambling, he is still my father. After I left, he changed his mind and went out to work every day to support me. Mother, but just a few days ago, he accidentally fell into the water while carrying a bag at the pier, and he disappeared... My mother also went with him because she couldn't bear the blow..."

Luo Chen's voice was mournful, but Xiao Rong didn't have any position to step forward to give him safety, so he had to pour another glass of wine for him, and when he was drunk, he could forget the sad things.

Xiao Rong sat as motionless as a mountain, with deep eyes, staring straight at Luo Chen who was drunk into a pool of mud in front of him, couldn't help sighing, stepped forward to help Luo Chen up, but didn't want Luo Chen to fall into Xiao Rong's body. Rong's arms, leaning on his shoulder.

The tears in the corners of his eyes were half dry, and he was so pitiful, Xiao Rong helped him out of the wine shop, but he didn't want to bump into Yuan Yin who was dressed in private clothes when he arrived at the door.

Luo Chen leaned into Xiao Rong's arms again, his posture was charming, and he was very close to Xiao Rong, Yuan Yin smiled instead of anger: "I only took a nap in the afternoon, so I didn't know that Xiao Qing had such a good affair, and there was a beauty by my side. Shouldn't you be here?"

"Your Majesty, you misunderstood. Brother Luo just mentioned the sad thing and drank a few glasses of wine and got drunk. I just wanted to help him into the carriage." It's okay to say that Yuan Yin is angry, but Xiao Rong still has a bottom line in his heart, but Now Yuan Yin's appearance of laughing instead of anger makes Xiao Rong a little at a loss, it seems that even explanation has become superfluous.

"Oh? I'm here, and you just want to help him into the carriage. If I don't come, could it be that Xiao Qing wants to take him back to the mansion?" Yuan Yin's eyes darkened, and Xiao Rong immediately felt bad, and hurried to He winked at Bai Shu and asked him to come to help him, but he didn't think that Luo Chen seemed to recognize Xiao Rong, and stretched out his hand to hug him tightly, refusing to let go.

Yuan Yin snorted coldly, without arguing with Xiao Rong, turned around and got into his carriage.

Xiao Rong was a little anxious, but Luo Chen seemed unable to get rid of him, so he could only help him into the carriage first, and Bai Shu would send him back to where he lives now.

In the garden of Taiwei Mansion, Shuo Yue walked towards Xu Zheng who was pruning flowers with his sword in his hands, and saluted with fists in his hands, "My lord, Luo Chen has succeeded."

"Your Majesty has really gone? What's your reaction?" Xu Zheng stopped the scissors in his hand and asked seriously.

"Your Majesty is very angry." Shuo Yue replied simply.

Xu Zheng pursed his lips into a smile, and his eyes were full of satisfaction: "That's right, people who are in love are jealous. Since this Xiao Rong is the queen he wants to make, naturally no one else is allowed to get involved."

"Then what will my lord do next?" Shuo Yue couldn't help asking curiously.

Xu Zheng looked at the pruned flower branch, stared for a long time before getting up and said: "The courtiers have knelt and begged for nothing in the past two days. I am afraid that tomorrow, His Majesty will no longer have the intention of establishing a male queen."

Shuo Yue seemed to understand, but quietly looked at Xu Zheng's back.

He will always remember that thin back standing upright in the wind, just waiting for one person, he felt pity in his heart, from pity to love, and decided to protect him for the rest of his life.

When he followed him to Jingzhou last year, on the day King Qi and Princess Adan got married, he was the officiant. Shuo Yue always remembered that every time he spoke, there would be a scar on his palm, so that after the banquet, his palm was covered with bloodstains .

But the person he was thinking about never said a word, he only came to meet Xu Zheng once before entering the bridal chamber, asked about the recent situation in Beijing, then turned and left, only caring about his new concubine and the child in the concubine's womb , don't care about the person in front of you at all.

Shuo Yue has always been King Qi's stand-in, he has always known it, but only when he is emotionally indulged can he truly possess Xu Zheng.

Xu Zheng's heart is lonely, falling in love with a person who is impossible to love him wholeheartedly, to that person, he is just a temporary pastime, and a pawn, just because of the grace of saving his life, Xu Zheng is willing to drive for him, Even if it is just to use him, he is willing.

But he was unusually sober, he knew that King Qi never loved him wholeheartedly, and he was unwilling to tell everyone that Xu Zheng was his lover and his concubine, so when he learned that Yuan Yin was willing to risk the world for Xiao Rong He was shocked, frightened and jealous at the same time.

He was afraid that his love for King Qi for many years would be torn to pieces because of Yuan Yin's actions. He was jealous why someone could get something easily, but he hadn't gotten it after more than ten years.

He is really not reconciled...

In the early morning of the next day, the courtiers still knelt outside the Xuanzheng Hall, begging Yuan Yin to take back the will of setting up a male empress, but Yuan Yin ignored it and stayed in the harem instead of going to the front court at all.

On the Qionghua Terrace, Yuan Yin sat alone leisurely, looking at the flowerbed of the Royal Garden, smelling the osmanthus fragrance that was faintly wafting, with a pot of sweet-scented osmanthus tea made last year, with a little sweetness, and the taste was just right.

Yuan Yin watched Xu Zheng approaching from a distance, and then cast his eyes on Xiao Luzi, Xiao Luzi immediately understood, and went forward to welcome Xu Zheng.

"Minister Xu Zheng, see Your Majesty." After Xu Zheng stepped onto the Qionghua Terrace, he glanced at the tired Yuan Yin, and hurriedly kowtowed.

Yuan Yin glanced at Xu Zheng from the corner of his eye, then frowned deeply, and beckoned to Xu Zheng with a tired look: "Xu Qing came to see me, or do you intend to let me take my life back?"

"Yes." Xu Zheng admitted without hesitation.

Yuan Yin sighed, got up quickly and helped Xu Zheng up: "Xu Qing, I'm riding a tiger right now."

"Your Majesty, is there anything you don't understand?" Xu Zheng looked up at Yuan Yin's hurt look, feeling pain in his heart for no reason.

Yuan Yin said: "I love Xiao Rong. I can't do without him in this life. I want to make him my queen. Xu Qing, I have never loved someone like this. I just want to be with him. Why do you disagree? If you If you agree, he will be my queen, and no one else will be able to take advantage of it."

Xu Zheng was slightly stunned, as if he understood Yuan Yin's words, he couldn't help asking curiously: "Your Majesty is so sad, could it be Lord Xiao..."

"He saw that I couldn't convince you, so he rekindled his old relationship with Luo Chen." Yuan Yin gritted his teeth, and when he looked back, he glared fiercely at Xu Zheng and said, "Do you still remember that Luo Chen, who was the second in the list back then, I have always been Knowing that they have a very close relationship, but I never thought...that they treat me like this!"

The grievance Yuan Yin said, the man who usually has tears and never flicks them, now his eyes are really red and tears are shed.

Xu Zheng, who had prepared a lot of speeches, didn't know how to speak at this moment: "Your Majesty, since the person whom Mr. Xiao cares about is not His Majesty, Your Majesty may as well let it go and not establish a male queen."

"How can it be done? I am the Son of Heaven. It is hard to chase after a word once said. If I change the order overnight, how can I win the trust of the world." Yuan Yin quickly vetoed Xu Zheng's words, wiped the tears on his face, then glared at Xu Zheng and said:

"Xu Qing, tell me, is this Luo Chen greedy for Xiao Rong's identity? He used to be a poor student and relied on Xiao Rong to win a seat in the capital. Now that he is a county magistrate, I'm afraid he also wants to rely on Xiao Rong I have climbed up and down, this kind of person, I will never tolerate it!"

"Your Majesty, perhaps Master Xiao is sentimental. He deceived His Majesty while being ambiguous with Luo Chen. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for the royal family?" Xu Zheng quickly comforted Yuan Yin, and blamed all his mistakes on Luo Chen. Pushed onto Xiao Rong's body.

Yuan Yin was a little annoyed, he stroked his chest and said calmly: "Xu Qing's words are reasonable, his looks and talent, how can he not be sentimental, I only hate young people, and fell for his tricks."

"What your majesty said is that Mr. Xiao treats his majesty like this, he should be severely punished, how can he be made a queen!" Xu Zheng also lowered his voice, and it seemed that Yuan Yin was not so angry in his heart.

Xu Zheng couldn't help sighing in his heart, the uncle and nephew were simply too different.

One only cares about power, and seems to be affectionate but is ruthless. Although the other is the emperor, he is like an ignorant teenager when it comes to emotional matters.

These two people turned out to be a family.
