"Why? Don't you want to?" Lu Shijin saw that Lin Yongnian was not happy, and shook his fan unhappy, "That means that what you said just now was to lie to me. This king hates others to lie to me. My king Now go tell the emperor brother, let him punish you!"
"My lord, calm down! This servant is not unwilling!" Lin Yongnian quickly knelt down, "The servant was moved by the lord's kindness. He was so pleasantly surprised that he didn't get over it all at once!"
"Then you are willing?" Lu Shijin snapped his fan away, "Okay! I'll go and ask the emperor's brother to ask you to serve me in my mansion."
"My lord!" Lin Yongnian still wanted to find an excuse to refuse, but Lu Shijin didn't give him a chance at all, and strode out of the Yeting Bureau and went to Yong'an Palace.
It happened to be dinner time, and Lu Shijin arrived at Yong'an Palace, and he had already started passing on the meal.
According to the rules, courtiers could not sit at the same table with the emperor, so another table was set up next to the dining table, which was Lu Shijin's seat.
Lu Shijin stretched his neck and counted, there were more than twenty dishes on the dining table, all of which were eaten by the emperor alone.
When Li Chong liked a dish, he lifted his finger, and the little eunuch who tasted the dish took a bite to test the poison first, and after confirming that it was all right, he put it on a plate and served it to Li Chong to enjoy.
Li Chong ate slowly, and did not ask Lu Shijin to eat together. The room was filled with the aroma of food, but Lu Shijin could only watch helplessly.
Even if one person eats so many dishes, he is not afraid of being stuffed to death! Lu Shijin scolded Li Chong countless times in his heart as a dog emperor, and then he calmed down a little.
Li Chong glanced in Lu Shijin's direction, and the little greedy cat stared at the delicious imperial meals on the table with bright eyes. It seemed that his saliva was almost drooling.
Li Chong hooked the corners of his mouth, and finally mercifully pointed to the three dishes that Lu Shijin had stared at for the longest time, and signaled the little eunuch to bring them to Lu Shijin's table.
Lu Shijin finally waited for his rations, and wrinkled his nose at Li Chong, thinking you have a conscience.
He picked up the chopsticks and was about to start. The little eunuch who was serving the food hurriedly reminded in a low voice, "Ning Junwang, the emperor gave the food, you have to get up first to thank you."
Damn, there are so many rules for eating a meal, the ancients are troublesome!
Lu Shijin stood up with a face of reluctance, saluted and thanked him: "My brother, thank the Lord for your kindness!"
Li Chong waved his hand, "Sit down, tell me what else you want to eat."
Lu Shijin sat down, tasted the dishes with two chopsticks, and immediately beamed with joy. The imperial chef is the imperial chef, and the dishes he made tasted better than the ones he had eaten before!
Why else would everyone want to be emperor? This treatment! It's too good! Hey, why didn't he dress up as the emperor
Lu Shijin took a sip of the thick, white and delicious chicken soup, licked his lips and said, "Brother Emperor, you eat alone every day, so many dishes, can you finish it?"
Li Chong had already finished his meal, so the little eunuch brought him a cup of tea to digest.
Li Chong picked up the teacup, stroked it with the lid of the teacup, took a small sip, and then said leisurely, "Why, what's your opinion?"
"Why don't you come to eat with the emperor's elder brother every day?" Lu Shijin suggested cheerfully.
"You..." Li Chong hesitated to speak, "Are you here to fight the autumn wind? The king of the county eats thousands of households, and there is not enough food for you in the mansion of the king of the county. You want to come here to beg for food?"
"How can this be the same? I recently learned a poem from my master." Lu Shijin shook his head and recited the poem, "It's noon on the day of hoeing, and the sweat drips down the soil. Who knows that the food on the plate is hard work. You Look, there are so many dishes on the table, you don’t eat after two bites, and you don’t move at all, what a waste? Can’t one more person help you eat? And eating alone is so boring, my brother is here Here, I can also chat with you to relieve boredom."
"I just want to come here to eat free food, and even memorize poems, you are a big kid." Li Chong couldn't help laughing, "Okay, for the sake of your willingness to study hard, I will allow you to accompany me to have dinner every day."
Lu Shijin immediately stood up and thanked him happily.
As soon as the dining table was removed, suddenly a eunuch came to report from outside the door, saying that Eunuch Lin, the head of the internal affairs department, was kneeling outside the gate of Yong'an Palace, begging to be interviewed.
Li Chong naturally knew who this Eunuch Lin was, so he asked the eunuch who sent the message quietly: "It's so late, what does he want to see me for?"
Send a message to the eunuch: "Back to the emperor, Eunuch Lin didn't say anything, so the servant went to ask for an answer."
Lu Shijin stopped the eunuch who was about to go out, "Why bother to go back and forth again and again, Brother Emperor, if you have something to ask, won't you know it by calling someone in?"
The corner of Li Chong's mouth curled up imperceptibly: "Show him in."
After a while, Lin Yongnian was brought in by the eunuch who sent the message, and he knelt down and kowtowed as soon as he entered Yong'an Palace.
"The slave pays respects to the emperor, and begs the emperor to show mercy!"
Li Chong put his hands behind his back and walked up to Lin Yongnian, "I don't quite understand what you said, it's so good, what kind of favor do you want me to do to you?"
Lin Yongnian: "Back to the emperor, this servant has grown up in the palace since he was a child, and has never left the palace. Only by being favored by the emperor, can this servant take the position of head of internal affairs. This servant once made an oath, in order to repay the emperor's kindness, This servant will stay in the palace to serve the emperor for the rest of his life, and will be a cow and a horse for you all his life. Today, this servant is fortunate to be favored by the king of Mengning County. He wants this servant to go to the county palace to serve him, but this servant has already made an oath, so he can only disappoint Ning For the great love of the county king, please allow the emperor to allow the slaves to stay in the palace to serve!"
After listening, Li Chong turned his head to look at Lu Shijin, and found that Lu Shijin winked at him maliciously, so he understood what was going on.
"However, King Ningjun didn't ask me to serve you," Li Chong pondered, "Why did you say that?"
"My king almost forgot if you didn't come," Lu Shijin gloated, "This king even asked the emperor's brother to beg you, but you came here first and refused, you slave have such a big face."
"Ah?" Lin Yongnian glanced at Lu Shijin in a daze, and then suddenly realized that he was being tricked by this fool!
"This... this," Lin Yongnian hurriedly prostrated himself on the ground, "I am reckless, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
"Well, you Lin Yongnian," Lu Shijin's face darkened, he rolled up his sleeves, pointed at Lin Yongnian angrily and cursed, "In front of this king, he said that serving this king is a blessing he cultivated in his previous life. Brother here, he also said that he doesn’t want to serve this king, this king sees that you are just fooling me, thinking that I am a three-year-old kid?!”
"Bold slave, dare to deceive the county king, what should you do?" The eunuch next to Li Chong got Li Chong's wink and stood up to question Lin Yongnian.
How could Lin Yongnian think that what Lu Shijin said to his face was so true, that he wanted to beg him with the emperor, but in the end he didn't speak to the emperor at all.
Lin Yongnian acted cautiously on a daily basis. If he hadn't thought that Lu Shijin was a fool, didn't take Lu Shijin seriously, and was careless for a while, he would believe whatever Lu Shijin said, and he wouldn't have fallen into Lu Shijin's trap so easily.
"Yeah, what should you do?" Lu Shijin said, "Brother Emperor, according to my younger brother, this slave has two faces, so he is definitely not a good thing. How can such a person stay by your side to serve you? He must be punished!"
"Lin Yongnian, do you know what's wrong?" Li Chong's face was calm, but he was secretly happy. It's great. He was worried that he would not have the chance to deal with this bastard who gave him a cuckold, but he didn't expect that Lin Yongnian would bump into Lu Shijin by himself. At gunpoint, this helped him solve a big problem!
This cheap little brother is his lucky star!
Lin Yongnian was dumb eating Coptis chinensis, unable to explain his suffering, so he could only kowtow to admit his mistake, "I know my mistake! I beg the emperor to forgive me! I know my mistake! I beg the emperor to forgive me!"
Li Chong wanted to smile or not and said: "In my opinion, you are indeed not competent as the chief executive, so I will remove you from your post and punish you to serve in the Yeting Bureau and think about your own mistakes!"
Lin Yongnian's body froze when he heard it, and he felt cold from being splashed head-on by a basin of ice water.
"Did you hear that?" The eunuch knocked on Lin Yongnian's back with his fly whisk, "It's the emperor and King Ningjun who gave you kindness for not hitting you. Hurry up and give thanks!"
Things have come to this, Lin Yongnian is just a lowly slave, even if he is not convinced, there is nothing he can do, so he can only grit his teeth and suffer the loss of being dumb, kowtow and retreat.
"Hmph," Lu Shijin rolled his eyes towards Lin Yongnian's back, "Dogs look down on people."
Li Chong nodded his forehead, "Don't think that I can't see it, you just deliberately punished him, didn't you?"
"Yes," Lu Shijin didn't deny it, and said confidently with his hips on his hips, "I went to see Sister Liu today, but I saw Lin Yongnian entered Sister Liu's house, and I just want to punish him!"
Li Chong, who learned the truth, couldn't laugh or cry, "...unexpectedly, we will also be angry with the crown today and become a beauty."
"What crown and anger? I don't understand." Lu Shijin stretched his waist, "Brother Emperor, do you still have to deal with government affairs? Then I'm going to take a bath first."
"What?" Li Chong grabbed him and asked with a frown, "You still want to live here today?"
"That's right," Lu Shijin said as a matter of course, "Brother Emperor, your bed here is big and soft, much more comfortable than the one in the courtier's mansion, so what if I lend it to my courtier to sleep for a few nights?"
"What's the matter?" Li Chong laughed angrily, stretched out his fingers and said, "Ask me for a beauty, bully my servant, oh, I will give you my royal meal, and now you have taken a fancy to my dragon bed Right? What else do you want next?" Li Chong pointed to himself, "I'll let you sit on my dragon chair too?"
"Is it possible?" Lu Shi really blinked today, pretending to believe it.
Li Chong was so angry that his nostrils almost crooked, and just about to reprimand him, Lu Shijin rushed ahead of him and said, "Your brother is just joking, my brother is not interested in dragon chairs, hehehe."
What I am interested in is the person sitting on the dragon chair.
Relying on his brain being burnt out, Lu Shijin has already left the shame thing behind, and said with a smile: "Brother Chong, don't be stingy, just sleep on your dragon bed, your dragon bed is so big, share it with me." What's wrong with the other half? When we were in the cold palace, we slept together, and my younger brother can warm your bed."
"Warm, warm the bed?" Li Chong's eyes twitched, "Who taught you this word?"
Lu Shijin eloquently said: "Wang Xi, he said that when my younger brother marries the princess, someone will warm my younger brother's bed. My younger brother knows that when my younger brother is leaving, sister Liu, there will be no one to warm your elder brother Chong." The bed is gone, so now I will warm Brother Chong's bed as compensation!"
Li Chong: "..." He was speechless for a moment.
Forget it, Li Chong comforted himself, why should I be serious with a fool, he can live as long as he likes, and save himself having to find all kinds of excuses every day not to flop the brand.
Just as he was talking, people from the Respect Office came over with trays containing the green cards of the concubines.
"Your Majesty, it's time to flip the cards."
"The emperor won't turn over today, the emperor will sleep with me today." Lu Shijin said first.
The eunuch in the respect office looked up at Lu Shijin in surprise, and then turned his head to look at the emperor's face.
Li Chong waved his sleeves, "Take it off, I'm busy with government affairs today, and I don't need anyone to attend to bedtime."
"Yes." The eunuch at the Respect Office was about to leave, but Lu Shijin called him back, "Wait a minute, don't leave. Who are the people written on these signs?"
Lu Shijin picked up the green cards and looked at them one by one. It was only the second year of Li Chong's accession to the throne, and he hadn't become a concubine yet, so there were not many concubines in the harem. There were ten green cards in total, most of whom were beauties and talents.
"Make a sign for me some other day and put it in it." Lu Shijin said in surprise and endlessly.
The eunuch carrying the plate shook his hands twice, and asked in disbelief, "What did you say, my lord?"
Lu Shijin: "Are you deaf? I said, make me a sign too."
"Nonsense!" Li Chong waved his hand to let the eunuch go down, and lightly scolded, "You know what the green head card means, so you want it just because you are arguing?"
"I know," Lu Shijin said, "Whoever the emperor reads is the one who sleeps, right? Today, the younger brother sleeps with the emperor's elder brother, isn't it just the younger brother's name?"
Li Chong supported his forehead, feeling tired talking to the idiot brother, "Hurry up and take a bath."
Lu Shijin pulled Li Chong's sleeve and shook it, playing a rogue, "No, I want the brand! I want the brand!"
"If you keep messing around, you won't be allowed to sleep here tonight!" Li Chong was unmoved.
Lu Shijin rolled his eyes, raised his mouth and snorted disdainfully, and muttered in a low voice: "Stingy man, if you don't give it, I won't give it, then I'll make your sign, you will judge me, I will judge you, it's the same anyway. "
"The more you talk, the more outrageous it becomes!" Li Chong pretended to be angry and shook his sleeves, "No nonsense! I am the emperor, how can you flip my brand! What does it look like when you spread it? If you talk nonsense, I will be caught The board hit your palm!"
Lu Shijin hurriedly pretended to be scared and withdrew his hand, "My younger brother is going to take a bath, and my younger brother is leaving."
—
In the Yeting Bureau, Lin Yongnian, who had already been demoted to the lowest rank of eunuch, cleaned the toilet for a whole day. He was exhausted and ready to go back to rest, but was stopped by two eunuchs with a slightly older grade and two attendants.
"Hey, isn't this Director Lin?" A sharp-tongued eunuch said angrily, "Why does Director Lin, who has always been aloof, do such a dirty job of cleaning toilets?"
Lin Yongnian took the position of head of internal affairs at a young age, and because of his good appearance, the court ladies often gave Lin Yongnian things, and the other eunuchs often envied him.
Now that Lin Yongnian is in distress, it just gave them the opportunity to abuse others. Not only did Lin Yongnian do the dirtiest and most tiring job of cleaning the toilet, but they also cheated him on food, just because they didn't want Lin Yongnian to have a good time.
They saw that Lin Yongnian had offended the Emperor's favorite Prince Ning, and they would never have a chance to stand up. They all wanted to step up and step on Lin Yongnian into the dust to make them happy.
Lin Yongnian ignored them and walked in with a bucket, but was stopped by the sharp-mouthed eunuch, "Wait a minute, what about talking to you, wanting to leave just ignoring people? Do you think you are still the arrogant chief executive?"
"I've never offended you before, so why do you have to push me so hard?" Lin Yongnian asked.
The sharp-mouthed eunuch sneered, "Eunuch Lin, why are you so naive? If you don't look for trouble, won't trouble come to you? Before, your eyes were so high that you didn't even look at us. Now you are in our hands." , do you still want to have a good life?"
Lin Yongnian looked at him coldly, "Then what do you want to do?"
Another fat eunuch stood forward, with his legs spread apart, and he said with a smile on his hips, "If you want to go back, you can just slip through our crotch."
Lin Yongnian sneered: "Dream!"
"Don't you want to drill? It seems that Eunuch Lin still has such a temper?" The sharp-mouthed eunuch moved his wrist, "I just don't know if your golden body is as hard as your mouth, Eunuch Lin! Give me a call!" !"
The four of them rushed forward, and Lin Yongnian, not to be outdone, raised the wooden barrel in his hand and threw it at them, but his fists were overwhelming. After resisting for a while, he was pushed to the ground by the four of them, and his fists rained down on them. on him.
Lin Yongnian gritted his teeth and said nothing. His face was pressed against the mud, and the mud drilled into his mouth and nose. The pain in his body made his mind clearer.
Why? Why is Li Chong standing high and enjoying the supreme honor when he is trampled underfoot
Why? Why is his life and death, his fate all a matter of those people's words
Why? Why can't he see the light because they are all the blood of the first emperor? Even a fool can be the king of the county, but he can only be a low-class person who cleans the toilet? !
I don't agree! I want revenge! I want to trample all those people under my feet!
"What are you doing?!" A woman exclaimed, "Stop! I'm calling someone!"
The eunuchs saw that it was Liu Zhenhuan who came, and thought that Liu Zhenhuan would soon be the wife of the county king, so for Liu Zhenhuan's sake, they stopped beating Lin Yongnian.
The sharp-mouthed eunuch smiled apologetically, "It's Miss Liu."
Liu Zhenhuan was also a little afraid of these eunuchs, but he held on and did not show timidity: "What are you doing? Who allowed you to beat people?"
The fat eunuch said: "Lin Yongnian has spoken disrespectfully to us, so naturally we have to teach him a lesson, otherwise, he would still think he is the chief executive."
"Go away!" Liu Zhenhuan screamed angrily.
"Miss Liu, I can advise you, if you are really for his own good, stay away from him. What do you think is the reason for his end today? Isn't it because King Ning saw you two alone in the same room? Is it?" The sharp-mouthed eunuch sneered, and spat on Lin Yongnian, "For Miss Liu's sake, I'll spare you first, let's go!"
The eunuchs left, Liu Zhenhuan saw Lin Yongnian whose nose was bruised and his face was swollen from the beating, and felt distressed. He quickly helped him up, and wiped the dirt and blood off his face with a handkerchief.
"Why are they doing this? Why do they beat people?" Liu Zhenhuan's tears fell, "It's all my fault. If I hadn't looked for you that day, you wouldn't have offended Prince Ning because of me."
"It's none of your business." Lin Yongnian sat up, spit out the blood from his mouth, and stared at Liu Zhenhuan with dark eyes.
Liu Zhenhuan flinched from his terrifying eyes, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Huan'er, I am no longer the chief executive, and I can no longer protect you." Lin Yongnian smiled miserably, "But you are going to enter the Ningjun Palace soon. Ningjun Wang is a fool. It's better than in the palace. We are all hard-fought people, and I will have no regrets if I can see you happy."
"You know, I don't want to marry Prince Ning at all. He is a fool. I won't be happy if I marry him." Liu Zhenhuan wiped his tears with a handkerchief, "I only hate that I am a girl, and I can't do anything." Make up your own mind."
Lin Yongnian asked: "What if you can make your own decisions?"
Liu Zhenhuan frowned: "What do you mean by that?"
"Huan'er, if you were asked to choose to marry King Ning and be the emperor's concubine, how would you choose?" Lin Yongnian asked Liu Zhenhuan pressingly while holding Liu Zhenhuan's hand.
Liu Zhenhuan shook her head repeatedly, "I, I don't even want to choose! I just want to be with you! It would be great if there is a place for us in this harem."
"Silly Huaner!" Lin Yongnian hugged Liu Zhenhuan, his tone became gentle, "Why don't I understand your heart, and the same is true of my heart for you. But, there is no place for us here anymore, you If you enter the county palace, I am afraid that we will never meet again in this life. But if you become the emperor's concubine, it will be different."
Liu Zhenhuan was dubious: "How is it different?"
"As long as you can become the emperor's concubine, with the emperor's love for you before, why not spoil the sixth palace?" Lin Yongnian said slowly, "As long as you become the favorite concubine, your Liu family will be pardoned. Think about you Elderly grandfather and father exiled in the frontier, do you have the heart to see them die in a foreign land? And your brother, are you willing to let him be a slave who is not even a dog here forever?"
Liu Zhenhuan thought of the sudden changes at home, the separation of relatives forever, the heartache of these years, and the tears shed even more fiercely.
She was a little moved by what Lin Yongnian said, sobbing: "Is this the only way?"
"Only this one." Lin Yongnian supported her by the shoulders, and said with firm eyes, "If you become a favorite concubine, we can still stay together in the palace for a long time. This is the only way."
Liu Zhenhuan hesitated, "However, the emperor gave me to King Ning, which means that he doesn't care much about me. I'm not sure how much the emperor likes me. What if the emperor doesn't care about me at all?" what should I do?"
Lin Yongnian caressed Liu Zhenhuan's face, and said with a smile: "You have to believe in yourself, your talent, your beauty and intelligence, your gentleness and understanding, no man can refuse you, and these are your most precious things. Useful weapon."
Liu Zhenhuan bit her lower lip lightly, as if she had made up her mind, "What should I do?"
"I have an old friend in the imperial hospital. I will find a way to get him to prescribe me a dose of medicine." Lin Yongnian's eyes became determined, "The emperor will pass by a plum garden every day when he returns from the imperial study to Yong'an Palace. Wait here There, find a way to attract the emperor's attention, and take the opportunity to give him medicine when he is close to him, as long as he favors you, even if he gave you to King Ning before, he can't do it!"
Liu Zhenhuan was terrified when he heard that, "This, can this be successful?"
Lin Yongnian held Liu Zhenhuan's hand in his palm, "Huan'er, you only have one chance, success or failure depends on it, our future depends on you."
