Chapter 368 Do you feel good (8)
But, how could she let him succeed?
In the next life, in the next life, she will never have anything to do with this man again!
I don't know if I noticed the undercurrent between Ning Yue and Sikong Shuo, the imperial concubine said: "Your Majesty, you said that the purple lotus is blooming, where is it?"
The emperor was in a good mood and said with a smile: "Oh, I want to know too! Aiqing, where about the purple lotus you promised? I didn't see any of them! Only flower bones!"
Ning Yue lowered her eyes and shook the cup in her hand.
Dare to love is that Sikong Shuo told Zilian to open. In his previous life, Sikong Shuo had never tried so hard to please the emperor. It seems that after Ma Jingyan's "betrayal" of Princess Deqing, the emperor angered Sikong Shuo, the original matchmaker, and not only sent Sikong Shuo's subordinate Lin Chuan, but also burned Sikong Shuo's request for military expenses. It didn't seem like a big deal, but Ning Yue understood that the emperor was never suspicious, and once he became suspicious, it would be difficult to fill the gap. Sikong Shuo's current climate is still immature, and he is far from being able to overthrow the emperor himself. He needs to use the big tree of the emperor to crush the Yao family, the Guo family, and the Xuan family. , he kicked the emperor again and made himself emperor.
But what Ning Yue is more curious about is how will Sikong Shuo repair his relationship with the emperor? Just by admiring a few lotus flowers? Or... admiring the lotus is just an excuse, but he actually has other plans?
If it’s the latter, could it be what I thought about?
Ning Yue's inquiring eyes passed over Sikong Shuo, and lightly landed on the emperor's face.
The emperor smiled with great interest, and asked Sikong Shuo when the purple lotus bloomed.
Sikong Shuo slowly raised the corners of his lips: "Your Majesty, we agreed before that if you beat me, I will immediately let the purple lotus bloom. If you don't win..."
The emperor lowered his face: "Can't you let me?"
The smile on the corners of Sikong Shuo's lips widened, and a charming breath, like a poppy, wafted in the air: "The emperor can ask for help. I heard that the imperial concubine is good at chess."
It took a long time for the imperial concubine to suppress the amazement in her heart and not let herself show any strangeness. This does not mean that she fell in love with Sikong Shuo, but that Sikong Shuo's appearance itself has a fatal temptation for women. Fortunately, she is a eunuch, she thought secretly.
"Master Zhongchang praised me a lot. I'm not good at chess, so I dare not make a fool of myself." She said with a smile.
"Oh?" Sikong Shuo raised his eyebrows, smiled, and looked at Ning Yue, "Where is the princess?"
Ning Yue smiled slightly, stood up, took the chess piece from the emperor, and placed it on the place where the emperor had swept hundreds of times but ignored it hundreds of times.
The emperor suddenly realized: "Oh, so I should go down here!"
Ning Yue sneered, Sikong Shuo obviously dug a hole for her to jump in, well, she jumped down, she wanted to see what was in the hole for her!
A trace of astonishment flashed through Sikong Shuo's eyes at an extremely fast speed, as if he didn't expect that Ning Yue would break the chess game he set up in the blink of an eye, but soon, with the effort of breathing, he smiled softly again : "I lost, okay, I'll get someone to prepare something."
After finishing speaking, he gestured to the old **** behind him, "It will take some time for the flowers to bloom, please make some tea, don't make the emperor wait!"
"Yes." The old **** went to a nearby small palace and brought over the brewed tea.
Sikong Shuo walked to the lake, took out some tools, and whispered something to the eunuchs beside him.
The emperor took a sip of tea, and a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes: "After drinking so much tea, the best one is the tea made by Mrs. Sun herself. The rest, I always feel that there is something missing."
