Mo Qi looked at Ling Xiao proudly: "I wish you were like this earlier! You have to force me, if I become rich, will I forget you? You and I are fellow villagers, from the same place."
Ling Xiao played with the palm of his hand, and said impatiently: "Okay, tell me, what do you want to do?"
Mo Qi made fun of herself: "Tomorrow is the day of the emperor's draft. You are always the smartest. Give me some advice on how to attract the emperor's attention. Do you want to dress up nicely? Or do you dress up in a modern way?" ?Maybe it's more eye-catching."
Ling Xiao sneered: "You let an ancient person appreciate the aesthetics of modern people?"
Mo Qiyan went on: "Then what do you say?"
Ling Xiao rubbed his palms. In his previous life, Mo Qi also came to discuss with him. In order to make Mo Qi stand out, he mingled among the little eunuchs who could get in touch with the emperor. He learned that the emperor liked women with plain makeup and no pretentiousness.
Therefore, let Mo Qi go into battle without makeup, and be more casual. Mo Qi is already beautiful, and her makeup is not inferior to other beautiful girls. In addition, her behavior is casual, and she really stands out among a group of well-behaved beautiful girls. The emperor's attention.
But this time... How could Ling Xiao let her attract the emperor's attention.
He closed his eyes and thought for a while, then raised his lips and said: "The emperor likes women with heavy makeup, you can make up as much makeup as you want, by the way, he also likes quieter women, you should be quiet tomorrow and don't talk too much .”
Mo Qi frowned: "Just... that's all right?"
Ling Xiao shrugged: "Believe it or not is up to you."
Mo Qi gritted her teeth: "Ling Xiao, I believe you won't be so stupid as to lie to me. If I don't choose you this time, don't even think about it."
Putting down the harsh words, Mo Qi turned around and left, Ling Xiao sneered, he wanted to see how Mo Qi made him feel uncomfortable, he had already figured it out, to gain a foothold in this palace, he must have a strong backing.
Who is the most powerful backing in this palace, naturally there is only one person.
In her previous life, didn't Mo Qi reach the pinnacle of life only when she was an emperor? Then it's better to replace him in this life.
He cannot be reborn in vain.
The emperor should have had a good impression of him a few days ago, not to mention the good impression, but the interest must not be less, otherwise he would have murdered him as early as when he first found the letter.
Moreover, he is very confident that he will please the emperor.
In his previous life, Mo Qi liked the emperor. In order to make Mo Qi win the emperor's favor, Ling Xiao checked the emperor's hobbies all over the place. What did the emperor like to eat, what weather and what did he like to do? He knows everything about office work, so he uses these to ask Mo Qi to make Mo Qi a woman who fully understands the emperor's thoughts.
It can be said that Mo Qi was so favored in her previous life, a large part of the credit was due to Ling Xiao.
And in this whole life, Ling Xiao went to battle by himself only for the position of that little eunuch next to the emperor.
He thought, it's not difficult at all.
Although, if possible, Ling Xiao didn't want to rely on the emperor, but he had no power in the palace, so he had to find a backer. Most importantly, he couldn't be a eunuch all his life, he had to think about his future.
In his previous life, he didn't have much direct contact with the emperor. The emperor was the one who bullied him the least in his previous life. It was only when he was rude occasionally that he would be scolded by Mr. Xu by his side. He was beaten once or twice for doing something wrong. .
Compared with those who insulted him, this emperor is much better.
Even if he was not really angry with those few boards, he could save them and count them later.
The most important thing now is to deal with Mo Qi.
As stupid as she is, Ling Xiao feels that he can do anything, and she has a handle on him.
But how could he make her wish.
He got close to the Emperor and cut himself off from her, Ling Xiao did not believe that she could find him to expose him, even if she could, the Prime Minister's Mansion would not allow her to be so rude.
She is now tied to the fate of the prime minister's mansion.
Ling Xiao made up his mind and thought about how to get close to the emperor.
Suddenly, the next day came quietly.
As expected, Mo Qi listened to Ling Xiao's words, put on delicate heavy makeup, covered her body in a red dress, and whitewashed a pure and pure person to look seductive.
She walked out, staring at the beautiful women gathered together, with extreme confidence in her appearance appearing on her face.
There is no other person in the world who is more beautiful than her, and she is bound to win this draft.
Ling Xiao watched coldly, and followed many eunuchs to escort the group of beautiful girls to the flat ground in the center of the imperial garden. The beautiful girls stood in several rows, and Ling Xiao followed the little eunuchs to stand behind the beautiful girls, waiting for orders at any time.
After about Shen Shi, a bright yellow shadow came in the distance, followed by the eunuch's sharp voice.
"The emperor is here."
Everyone bowed down one after another.
After getting up, the emperor casually glanced at the many beautiful girls, and finally his gaze stayed on Ling Xiao for a few seconds. Then, he stretched out his hand and quickly flipped through a few signs. Manager Xu understood, and the few people whose signs had been turned over were one by one. One name.
Surprisingly, there is still Mo Qi in it! ! !
Ling Xiao rolled his eyes straight away, it seemed that Mo Qi's halo was really strong enough.
While Ling Xiao was feeling emotional, he heard that the people whose cards were turned over were being canonized one by one!
Ling Xiao was astonished! In the previous life, I had to wait for two or three days before the imperial decree arrived, but in this life, it was conferred on the spot.
He remembered that there were nine people who were selected in the previous life, which was the same as the present, and Mo Qi was named the eleventh-rank Mo Cairen, and He Xiunv, who had a feud with Mo Qi, was the thirteenth-rank He Baolin.
The others were all Bao Lin and Cai Nu. At that time, Mo Qi was the highest promoted among the nine.
But this time, Ling Xiao finished listening to Manager Xu's canonization.
It was discovered that He Xiunv was the same as the others in her previous life, but Mo Qi had not been canonized...
The emperor turned over Mo Qi's brand but didn't give her canonization? What does this mean
While Ling Xiao was wondering, the emperor had already left with a group of eunuchs.
He was about to follow up, so Mao recommended himself, when Director Xu suddenly appeared in front of him, which shocked him a lot.
He looked at Mr. Xu in shock, and saluted him: "Mr. Xu is well."
Director Xu stared at Ling Xiao with a half-hearted smile, and Ling Xiao's entire body trembled from being stared at.
Mr. Xu said with a smirk: "It's really a good-looking one, it's comfortable to look at, no wonder the emperor likes it when he sees it."
Ling Xiao felt that these words were full of sour vinegar, so he couldn't help curling his lips.
Director Xu sneered twice, and explained the purpose of coming: "The emperor summoned you, come with our house."
Following Mr. Xu all the way, he turned east and west, and arrived at the imperial study where the emperor polished ink last time.
Ling Xiao was stunned for a moment, Director Xu had already opened the door, and knelt down to salute the emperor who was sitting in the upper seat, and Ling Xiao also knelt down.
Mr. Xu said: "Your Majesty, you have already arrived."
The emperor raised his head upon hearing this, but lowered his head again: "Then you go down, Ling Xiao, come here, and grind the ink."
Ling Xiao was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled, it seems that the emperor took a fancy to his skill in grinding ink.
Thinking about it, Ling Xiao got up and walked to the emperor's back. He stretched out his hand to hold the ink stick. Just as he was about to grind the ink, he found that the emperor had stopped what he was doing at some point, staring at him with deep eyes. hand, he paused, hurriedly put down the ink stick, and was about to kneel down to plead guilty, but the emperor stopped him: "You continue, I want to see."
Ling Xiao had no choice but to stick to the ink stick again and circle it stiffly, feeling a little uneasy.
The emperor watched and couldn't help being a little amused: "Are you afraid of me?"
Ling Xiao was taken aback for a moment, pursed his lips and thought for a while, "Does the Emperor want to hear the truth or lies?"
The emperor raised his eyebrows, leaned back on the chair, clasped his hands, his face was uncertain.
Ling Xiao looked at him secretly, seeing that his expression was unclear, he didn't dare to play tricks on him anymore, and said directly: "The slave is not afraid of the emperor but in awe, the emperor is the ninety-five venerable, noble, wise and brave, he is a slave The existence we look up to... "
"Truth." The emperor interrupted Ling Xiao suddenly.
Ling Xiao rubbed his nose embarrassingly: "I'm afraid, I'm very afraid... Your Majesty, you are holding the slave's life!"
The emperor looked at Ling Xiao in a little surprise, the little eunuch looked cautious and anxious, and kept glancing at him secretly, as if he was thinking about his mood at this moment, he really looked timid and afraid.
However, this timid character dared to tell the truth in front of him.
The emperor shook his head amusedly.
Ling Xiao heaved a sigh of relief, it seemed that the emperor did not dislike his sincerity.
Although he knew the emperor's love, it was the first time he had a close communication with the emperor, so he was inevitably a little cautious. Just like the last time, as long as he was awake, he was always on guard or nervous. The emperor could see his nervousness. I didn't talk to him much, but just asked him to rub the ink and wait.
Waiting and waiting, it was almost evening again, Director Xu came in to ask the emperor for the meal.
The emperor dined in the imperial study this time, but it was Ling Xiao who tried the dishes.
Ling Xiao was quite satisfied with this job, he could eat all of the emperor's dishes, and he would probably be full after he had tasted all of them, the dishes placed in front of the emperor were a whole table.
But Ling Xiao looked around, and found that the emperor liked to eat very few.
The emperor preferred strong flavors such as hot and sour ice, but the dishes in the palace were oily or bland.
There are chickens, ducks, geese, and fish in the dishes on this table, but the chicken is boiled chicken, the duck is sesame oil duck, the goose is honey sauce goose, and the fish is steamed fish. Ling Xiao concluded that it would be good if the emperor could eat a tenth of the food.
Sure enough, the emperor put down his chopsticks after taking two casual bites, and asked someone to remove the food. Ling Xiao sighed as he looked at it. It was summer, but no one prepared a bowl of mung bean porridge or sour plum soup for the emperor to relieve the heat.
Ling Xiao suddenly understood the reason why the emperor in his previous life went to Mo Qi's palace every night. Even if he didn't stay overnight, he would definitely go to Mo Qi's place. It was not for other reasons, but because Mo Qi's palace was open in summer. Here, Ling Xiao prepared sour plum soup from time to time.
Thinking like this, Ling Xiao took advantage of the emperor's inattention, and went to the imperial dining room with the maids and eunuchs who removed the food.
