C45

Cigarette Water Pavilion.

Yuwen Chenglian sat in the backyard for a long time. No matter who told him that his master was not present, he did not believe them.

"Miss Hong Ting, this king must see the tower lord today, otherwise I definitely won't leave."

Yuwen Chenglian pulled back the maid that was on duty in the pavilion again and refused to let go no matter what.

The girl called Hong Ting glanced at him and said expressionlessly: "Prince Wei, it is not that Hong Ting's words are unpleasant to the ears, it is just that master isn't here. You might as well go back and see what your palace looks like instead of waiting here blindly. Hong Ting has said all that he wanted to say, so the Duke should take care. "

"Miss Hong Ting."

No matter how he called out, they ignored him.

After spending half a day of effort, Yuwen Chenglian returned to his residence dejectedly.

They met Yu Lin Wei and the people from the Wang Residence who were looking for him at the street corner. When the people from the Wang Residence saw Yuwen Chenglian, they acted as if they saw their savior and knelt down before him.

"Get up, what the hell are you doing!"

"Your Royal Highness, you've finally appeared. If you still don't come back, the sky will turn upside down in the Duke Palace. " The manager said too much and it was all tears.

Yuwen Chenglian had always been a high-profile person, and there were many people in the capital who could not recognize him. At this point, all the people who passed by stopped to watch the show, and the things that happened in the Wei Wang Manor were not anything new in the capital, from begging to hawkers, everyone knew about it.

Being stared at by a passerby made Yuwen Chenglian feel uneasy. He could only feel embarrassed, and ordered with a cold expression: "If there's anything, we can talk about it when we go back.

"Alright, alright, stop looking. Everyone disperse." The captain of the guards followed and evacuated the area.

When the onlookers saw that the officer dressed in the Imperial Guard uniform had spoken, they dispersed.

On the way back to the Duke Palaces, the manager had always reported what had happened today to Yuwen Chenglian.

The empress had brought the imperial concubine along with her to pacify the hearts of the people, as well as an imperial physician to treat her illness.

However, he didn't have the face to say anything about the evaluation that the Prince's Mansion had given him after he had fled.

However, his wife had changed. He had been scared off at first notice. She could become the topic of conversation among the people in the capital after lunch and last for a long time.

Yuwen Chenglian obviously understood this, and was secretly unhappy, but he did not say it out loud.

When he heard that it was the Empress who brought the imperial physicians and Yu Lin Wei to the Duke's Mansion to pacify the people, as well as to treat the wangfei's illness, Yuwen Chenglian's eyes lit up. When he heard that the Empress had left, he felt rather disappointed.

He said, "Instead, the Japanese king will personally go to the palace to thank the empress."

In his heart, however, he was thinking despicably about how to embrace that young and beautiful woman into his arms.

What the hell was Yuwen He? He was merely a flirt that the late emperor found on a whim, he had been a servant since a young age, a servant in the underworld! What right did he have to sit on a dragon throne, what right did he have to make a hundred officials submit and have the rest of the world kneel to him?

If he wanted to be an emperor, he needed to be Yuwen Chenglian, the direct descendant of a prince!

His heart thumped when he thought of the Empress coming to the estate that day, and his lower regions tensed up.

A man with a face full of peach blossoms was only so-so.

Young lady, could it be that we met in our previous lives?

You wait for me, and when this king becomes the emperor, I'll let you be the queen. It won't be long.

Returning to the manor.

Yuwen Chenglian hesitated at the door to Yao Ziyan's room. He did not go in, and said through the door: "Stay here alive, don't cause any more trouble. Even though the imperial doctors in the palace couldn't help you, this king will definitely visit everyone to cure you. "Also, this prince will enter the palace to thank you for the empress's kindness."

"Then, I must thank Your Highness!" Yao Ziyan gnashed his teeth.

"The servants will take good care of you and stop throwing things around like mad. Otherwise, your good reputation after so many years of doing business will be ruined."

"Thank you for your reminder, Your Highness."

Yuwen Chenglian did not speak further. He turned and walked to the entrance of the courtyard, instructing the servants to take good care of Wangfei before he left himself.

Yao Ziyan, who was still in the room, could not move at all.

Yuwen Chenglian, oh Yuwen Chenglian, you are truly ruthless enough!

From beginning to end, there is only yourself in your heart.

You've used me up, haven't you? You think that Situ Min, who is as young and beautiful as a flower and as beautiful as jade, is compatible with you?

How could I, Yao Ziyan, be willing to help others!

Not to mention I have martial uncle's backing, even if I don't, I will drag you down with me even if I die!

Just you wait, as long as I, Yao Ziyan, have a chance to rise, I will never have a good life for you!

Didn't you want to be an emperor? Didn't you want to kick your grandaunt out of trouble and become the queen? Don't even think about it! Even if you become the emperor, the queen can only be me, Yao Ziyan!

It was definitely not a second person!

Otherwise, I will make you want to die, and achieve it!

Yao Ziyan gritted her teeth as the love between her and Yuwen Chenglian had long since disappeared.

After Yu Lin Wei sent Yuwen Chenglian back to the Duke Palaces, he returned back to the palace to receive his orders.

The captain reported the situation to Xiao Ruyue one by one. Xiao Ruyue smiled and said: "It's been hard on you." Then, she let Yin Lin take some silver to reward the guards for their drinks.

The squad leader gratefully retreated, the corners of his mouth almost reaching the sky as he left.

After the captain of the Yu Lin Guards left, Yin Lin spoke with heartfelt words, "Your Majesty was originally worried that the Empress is a Princess Dongling, and that she would cause people to refuse to accept it when she first came. In just a short span of one month, the Empress has almost subdued the hearts of everyone present. "Seems like Her Majesty was worried for nothing."

"You can't say that, Yin Lin." Xiao Ruyue held onto Lu Yi's hand and stood up, and said lazily.

"You can only get the same reward if you are sincere to people. Even if the other party was a subordinate, he had to treat him equally. Only by making people feel respected could he devote himself wholeheartedly to his job, rather than being preoccupied with gains and losses. I will treat you like this, but I will treat these guards like this. "

"The Empress's words sound like a Dao of plotting against us." Yin Lin was worthy of being the elder of the palace, Yuwen He's spy. When she spoke to Xiao Ruyue, he also became more and more unruly.

Xiao Ruyue laughed, and she did not mind: "If I were to beat you up or insult you, at this moment, would you all still chat happily with me?"

She smiled and glanced at Lu Yi and Cai Yin.

"The empress is the best master Cai Yin has ever seen. She treats people with kindness and kindness and never innocently beat people up. Her sisters who work in glazed pavilion are all jealous of me."

Xiao Ruyue's eyes lit up, but it disappeared in a flash. As if nothing had happened, she smirked, "Oh, so Little Cai Yin is familiar with the people from glazed pavilion."

Cai Yin's face turned ugly as she realized what she had said. She trembled in fear and knelt down, saying, "Empress, Cai Yin knows his wrongs. Cai Yin knows his wrongs."

"This admission of fault is called 'I'm confused'. Where did you go wrong?"

Cai Yin's entire body shivered, she trembled like a fallen leaf in the wind.

Xiao Ruyue pretended not to know why, and looked at Yin Lin with an inquiring gaze.

Yin Lin hurriedly replied, "In reply to the Empress, it is the palace's greatest taboo to allow servants from different palaces to receive each other in private. Cai Yin is still young, and does not know the rules, I hope that you can forgive me. "

As he spoke, he was about to kneel down as well.

Xiao Ruyue pulled her back in time, "Just because of this matter? There was no need to be so scared as if she had done some terrible thing. Everyone is walking around the same palace. If it's the same sisters who entered the same palace in the same year, it would be even more common for them to get to know each other.

"The harem always forbids such things." Yin Lin said after hesitating for a moment.

Xiao Ruyue revealed an expression of enlightenment, then turned bright: "Do you think that there's anyone in this palace who can compete with me for a favor?"

Yin Lin was immediately choked.

That made so much sense that she had nothing to say.

The relationship between the princess and her lord must have improved quite a bit.

Xiao Ruyue glanced at her, and she immediately held back her laughter.

However, he had to hold it back very hard.

Yuwen He busied himself until the last hour of the year before he came to invite the Phoenix Palace.

"Empress, His Majesty is exhausted today. His imperial reports are piled high like a mountain, and he hasn't eaten much for dinner." Fang Weiyong quietly said to Xiao Ruyue.

Fang Weiyong could tell from one look that he felt for his master, Xiao Ruyue nodded, showing that she understood. Only then was he willing to go down.

In the Western Xia Country, although its territory wasn't big, there were still quite a few things.

There was a powerful country on the outside that wanted to seize the throne, an imperial uncle that wanted to seize it, a Empress Dowager that was eyeing it covetously, and a few other miscellaneous matters. It just happened that the Prime Minister was home recuperating at this time, and there was actually no one who could help him.

Being an emperor had never been an easy task. Even though being a sovereign of the world was a piece of cake, there was still the loneliness and busyness of being a sovereign of the world, as well as the unspeakable sorrow of being an emperor.

Yuwen He was lying on the soft couch with his eyes closed, looking tired.

Xiao Ruyue lowered her footsteps, but it still woke him up. As she approached, Yuwen He grabbed her hand.

"Elder Sister Xiao."

Xiao Ruyue froze on the spot.

The inexplicable sense of familiarity caused her heart to be thrown into chaos.

But in the next moment, Yuwen He suddenly opened his eyes and looked into hers.

"Min Er." The address changed again.

Xiao Ruyue heaved a sigh of relief.

"Who is the Elder Sister Xiao?" she asked, pretending to be calm.

"An old friend, the one I told you about, the one who took me in and saved my life on the streets of La Eight. I don't know why, but I thought she came back for me. "

Yuwen He's black eyes carried a smile. It seemed that he had inadvertently brought up this matter, but there was a faint trace of probing in his eyes.

He was obviously testing her.

Realizing this, Xiao Ruyue's heart suddenly sank to the bottom.

Destiny is so wonderful.

But it was too cruel.

Even though they were so close to each other, she didn't dare to say that she was the person from back then.

She wanted to ask him how he had gotten through all these years, but she didn't have the courage.

She, Xiao Ruyue, was only a dead person in this world.

Someone could actually remember her.

Xiao Ruyue's eyes grew hot, and her vision became blurry.
