The Scum Shou’s Survival Guide

Chapter 41: The emperor is my bamboo horse

Views:

You just don't want to see me... Would you rather let me go to another woman's bed than push me away!

Li Zechen's forehead bulged, his hand on his side trembled slightly because of too much force, and his voice was suppressed and painful: "Do you know what you're talking about..."

Ye Ming suddenly did not dare to look him in the eyes, as if he had done something too cruel, but he still hardened his heart: "The emperor must not have no heirs, otherwise the country will be unstable."

"Aiqing is really loyal, huh..." Li Zechen's hoarse voice overflowed from his throat, but his heart was a little cold.

Ye Ming knelt down and fell on the ground, "This minister must not be a person who wrongs the country, but also ask the emperor to take the country and society as the top priority."

Li Zechen looked fixedly at the person kneeling in front of him.

You are selfless enough, but have you ever understood that I hope you can be a little bit selfish and a little bit arrogant sometimes... And have you ever understood how cruel you are.

It gave me all the good things I longed for, but ruthlessly took it away, telling me that everything was just an illusion, and I couldn't catch anything in the end.

[Ding, Li Zechen's blackening value is +10, the current blackening value is 80]

After a long time, Li Zechen loosened his tightly clenched hands a little, and he suddenly let out a low laugh with a bit of tragic taste: "Okay, I will listen to you."

After he finished speaking, he strode away without hesitation, turned to the eunuch who was trembling next to him and said, "Go to Concubine Chen's Palace!"

Ye Ming didn't get up from the ground until he couldn't see Li Zechen's figure at all.

[888: He really went, play it off.]

[Ye Ming: How come? It's just a man's face, and he doesn't have to do anything when he goes there. It can also be a chat and a heart-to-heart.]

[888: ... Are you so sure?]

[Ye Ming: Of course.]

[888: I have to remind you that the blackening value has risen again.]

[Ye Ming: It doesn't matter, he just thinks I don't care about him. I just need to find a chance to show that I care about him. I actually think about him a lot. It's not easy to get rid of the blackening value~]

[888: Hehe...]

So human beings are inexplicable. If he were to kill this spicy chicken in minutes, he would be entangled with him like this forever? If something goes wrong, just beat him once, if not, beat him twice.

Li Zechen strode out of Fengyang Palace. It was a cold night outside. He stood at the gate of the palace and stopped.

The eunuch asked Li Zechen carefully: "Your Majesty... Are you still going?"

He has been by Li Zechen's side all the time. He is very aware of how much Li Zechen values Ye Ming, and thinks that Li Zechen was just angry.

Li Zechen twitched the corner of his mouth slightly. He looked back at the candlelight in the palace, with a strong sense of powerlessness in his eyes. Finally, he closed his eyes and said, "Go."

The eunuch was stunned for a moment. Could it be that the emperor really gave up this time

Chen Concubine had already slept. She always slept early, but today she was woken up by someone. The palace was in a state of chaos. Anxiously, he grabbed the mother's hand: "Emperor, is the emperor really coming?"

Mammy also had the expression of being hit by a pie in the sky, and her voice trembled with excitement, "It's true! If the father-in-law next to the emperor just came to pass the message in person, he will come immediately, the mother-in-law, take a shower, hey, wipe the eye feces here. wipe!"

Concubine Chen rushed down, washing her face and combing her hair. She had never been so flustered in her life, and then quickly changed into clothes. Before she put on her shoes, she heard that the emperor was coming, and rushed out in a hurry, only to fall. Wrestling, came a five-body throwing gift.

As soon as Li Zechen entered the door, he saw a woman with disheveled hair thrown down in front of him.

This is an embarrassment in front of the king... The maid and maid who were kneeling on the ground were trembling, and the chance that she finally got seemed to be in vain. How could the emperor like such a rash and foolish woman.

Chen Concubine was very inconspicuous in the palace regardless of her family background and appearance, and now the emperor must not like her even more.

Chen Concubine was so frightened that she almost cried, so it took a while for her to react, she raised her head tremblingly and said, "Chen, my concubine welcomes the emperor..."

Li Zechen glanced at her lightly, and walked in as if nothing had happened. The eunuch who was following him quickly stepped forward to close the door and stood guard at the door.

A crowd: "… "

The emperor went in like this without saying anything? ? ? Aren't you angry

Chen Concubine saw that Li Zechen came in and the door was closed. She was also taught and knew that she should serve the emperor now, but her hands and feet were still trembling nervously. She has always been introverted and timid, and she feels very shy about serving men, and she can't let go, but thinking about the person in front of her is the emperor, she still needs to go up to help him change clothes.

Li Zechen turned his head and looked at her.

Probably because of the hurry, the girl in front of her eyes is still a little confused, her hair is combed in a hurry, and her clothes are also crooked.

He came over suddenly, obviously frightening her.

Li Zechen sighed: "Go to sleep, I'll stay here for a while."

Concubine Chen said dumbly: "The concubine should serve the emperor and rest..."

The reason why Li Zechen chose to come to Concubine Chen's Palace was that she heard that she was calm and not causing trouble, and she was obedient enough. Seeing her like this at the moment, she couldn't bear to lose her temper, so she said coldly, "This is my order. "

Chen Concubine struggled for a while, but she was afraid that Li Zechen was terribly afraid, so she could only walk back to the bed step by step. Seeing that Li Zechen was not angry, she began to sleep with her eyes closed, but because she was too afraid to fall asleep, she couldn't help secretly Look at Li Zechen.

I saw Li Zechen sitting on a chair.

Chen Concubine became too sleepy later, and fell asleep in a daze. She opened her eyes in the middle of the night. Li Zechen was still sitting there like that, as if she had not moved at all. Maybe it was her hallucination... Li Zechen came here because it was hard to be here. For a night

Chen Concubine woke up the next day and found that Li Zechen was no longer there. Everything yesterday was like a dream.

Li Zechen really didn't go to Fengyang Palace again, and stayed in the palaces of other concubines for more than ten days. Ye Hao stayed in his palace as if nothing had happened, without asking Li Zechen's whereabouts.

That day, Ye Ming had breakfast and was walking in the garden as usual, when he suddenly heard a few palace maids whispering behind the rockery.

"The emperor went to Chen Concubine's Palace again today, and he has lived there for several days."

"Really? Could it be that the emperor likes Concubine Chen?"

"Isn't the son going to fall out of favor..."

Ye Ming paused, turned around and walked away as if he hadn't heard anything.

[Ye Ming: Everyone in this palace has the professionalism of a showman. I must let me hear the whispers. It is not easy for me to find out that it is intentional.]

[888:…]

[Ye Ming: I suddenly discovered the lovely side of our emperor. In fact, he is a arrogant and childish child. He went to other women for fear that I would not know. Will I be jealous?]

[888: Of course you won't be jealous.]

[Ye Ming: You are wrong! I'm so jealous! ! !]

888: I wipe, what's the situation

[Ye Ming: I also want to be in the same room with the beautiful ladies and sisters! Even if you can't sleep, it's so pleasing to watch! Hehehehehe...] The laughter here is wretched.

[888:...]This scumbag!

After a while, Ye Ming was still as if nothing had happened, but the servants around him seemed to be a little unstable, as if they thought he was really out of favor. Always dangling in front of him with a sad expression on his face, trying to persuade him to ask the emperor to come back, but Ye Ming was unmoved.

[888: It's been more than a month, and Li Zechen hasn't come to see you. I'm gratifying to set a new record.]

[Ye Ming: I guess he won't last long.]

[888: Oh? You are going to give him to someone else, and he will come back? The dignified emperor does not have such a bit of backbone?]

[Ye Ming: Hey, love is such a grinding little goblin. The one who loves earlier and deeper is destined to be the loser~]

[Ye Ming: But it doesn't matter, in fact, I still like him quite a bit, I will dote on him well ^_^]

888: You better stop loving him.

Ye Ming had dinner that day and went to bed early to rest.

He never slept very deeply. He rolled over in the middle of the night and opened his eyes in a daze. There seemed to be a black figure in front of him. He was startled, and suddenly opened his eyes and was about to cry out, but he was hazy. Moonlight saw the person in front of him clearly, it was Li Zechen.

Ye Ming immediately sat up from the bed and was about to salute, but was hugged by Li Zechen and lay back.

Li Zechen hugged the person in his arms tightly and closed his eyes.

These days, Ye Ming never asked about his whereabouts. Even if he knew that he was staying in another concubine's palace, he still didn't care... He really didn't care... What else could he hope for

He clearly knew that he was unpopular, he knew he didn't want to see him, but he still came back...

If no matter which path you choose, the pain is the same, then at least when you are around this person, you still have something to think about.

You won, and I lost terribly.

After a long time, Ye Ming felt the familiar atmosphere of the people around him, feeling a little complicated and nervous. He thought Li Zechen would never come back, so he whispered, "Your Majesty..."

Li Zechen opened his eyes in the dark and said softly, "Don't talk."

Don't talk, be quiet, just let me hug for a while...

Ye Ming stopped talking and closed his eyes.

Li Zechen liked the way Ye Ming was asleep. When he fell asleep, he would not look at him with such indifferent eyes, would not protect himself with the seemingly docile but alienating barb, and would not keep him a thousand miles away .

He stretched out his fingers and lightly traced the outline of the face of the person in his arms, brushing over the soft lips.

Why can't you just love me? Am I here too late, or am I not good enough for you? Or... just because of who I am

I actually know what you think... You want to be famous forever and be a good minister. When we were studying together... I knew you were such a person...

But I selfishly want to keep you by my side.

I thought I could give you everything, but I don't know, it's not what you want at all.

Li Zechen slowly tightened his hand.

Do you regret that you were good to me in the first place, regret that you provoke me...

However, it is too late to regret.

Li Zechen was processing the memorial in the imperial study that day, and the leader of the dark guard quietly entered the palace to report the situation to him.

The leader of the dark guard: "Your Majesty, Zuo Yu really gave the news to the Duke of Zheng's mansion, and now Li Zeyuan already knows about it. He has made a lot of moves recently, and it seems that he is ready to do something, but there is currently no way to infiltrate the palace. "

Li Zechen's eyes were cold: "I have tolerated him for a long time. Since that's the case, let's make a break."

That night, Li Zechen returned to Fengyang Palace, and after having a meal with Ye Ming, he said, "I plan to stay in the palace for a while, and Wenqing will accompany me."

Ye Ming didn't ask why, just respectfully.

Li Zechen gave him a deep look, but didn't say anything. You are always like this.

The next day the group set off in a mighty manner.

This palace is reluctant to be far from the capital. It is located in a mountain forest with hot springs and has a quiet environment. It was built by the late emperor for his queen, Li Zeyuan's biological mother. After the death of the previous emperors, Li Zechen became the emperor, and this place naturally became his.

Back then, Li Zechen was just an unpopular prince. The late emperor would never bring him here, only the crown prince and others. After Li Zechen ascended the throne, he did not indulge in enjoying himself, so he was here for the first time.

Li Zechen walked here with Ye Ming, his expression rarely relaxed and comfortable.

"Although the father is affectionate, he has always loved the queen, so Li Zeyuan was named the crown prince as soon as he was born." Li Zechen smiled lightly: "This is one of the father's favorite palaces, and the father used to bring him every year. Li Zeyuan came, in his eyes, Li Zeyuan is his son, we... just some accidents, it is impossible to threaten Li Zeyuan's status, in order to prevent us princes from thinking differently, he has always treated us differently ."

Ye Ming knew about these things, and when he remembered the treatment of Li Zechen in the palace, he couldn't help but soften his heart. The late emperor was really cold in this regard.

The son he loves most has always been Li Zeyuan. The other princes, if the mother's status is noble, that's all, at least they can live comfortably and safely, but a palace maid like Li Zechen is born... It's too difficult.

"But I didn't blame him. The father did this for the sake of the stability of the society. If he gave too much hope to each of his sons and let them have unreasonable thoughts, the consequences of cannibalism will only be more serious, so make an early decision. It's not wrong to be a prince, but the world is unpredictable..." Li Zechen pouted at himself and raised his eyebrows slightly, "People always have unreasonable thoughts, and they expect those things that are not inferior to themselves, and people's hearts are the most important. Things that are difficult to control. For example, I am not reconciled…”

Ye Ming said slowly: "The emperor can become the emperor, it is destiny."

"Really..." Li Zechen smiled, "but I feel that there is no so-called destiny, it is nothing more than fighting and grabbing."

From the day I was born, from the day I was sensible, I knew that if I didn't grab it, I would have nothing... So if you want to live and get what you want, you have to do anything.

Not only will I snatch the world from Li Zeyuan, but I will also snatch you from him.

They walked slowly and unknowingly came to the place where the hot spring was located. It was very beautifully built. The cobblestone path stretched to the end and was a circular pool. The water in the pool was steaming hot, like a fairyland.

Li Zechen walked over, stared at it for a while, and then walked in. Probably because the stones in the pool were too slippery, he was unsteady and fell straight forward.

Ye Ming followed behind Li Zechen. Seeing that Li Zechen was about to fall inside, he rushed over without thinking and tried to hold him, but Li Zechen grabbed him by the hand and took him with him, and fell into the water with a thud Inside, the water splashed everywhere, he raised his eyes worriedly, and met Li Zechen's smiling eyes.

He couldn't help but startled, then he realized that Li Zechen was doing it on purpose, so he was about to get up and leave, but was hugged by Li Zechen.

Li Zechen rested his chin on Ye Ming's shoulder, opened his lips slightly, and said in his ear, "You are still the same as before."

Ye Ming's face turned red, and he turned his eyes away in embarrassment.

Li Zechen said: "I still remember the first time we met, that time I went to the lake to help the third sister pick up the ball, and you watched from the side... I saw your eyes, and everyone looked at it indifferently and mockingly. Looking at me, only you stood there with a worried look on your face, wishing you could come over and pull me up and look at me so tenderly…”

"Since that day, I will remember you."

When he said this, he didn't even call himself me.

Ye Ming's eyes were dazed for a moment, as if he had returned to the past, and he also remembered that first meeting. But what he didn't know was that Li Zechen, who was a young man back then, still remembered the expression on his eyes at that time...

Li Zechen added: "Afterwards, you always spoke to me in front of Li Zeyuan, you would laugh at me, and you would secretly find a chance to see me... Ask me if I was doing well."

Ye Ming's lips moved: "I..."

Li Zechen shook his head and smiled softly: "I know, you don't really mean that to me. I knew it from the first time you rejected me."

At that time, I also had moments of panic, anger and confusion... At that time, I was thinking, I did everything to get the status I am today, but I found that I couldn't get what I wanted at all. That indescribable sense of loss no one can know.

I think about a person every day and every night, thinking about being unable to restrain myself, and finally doing something that hurts others and hurts myself.

Li Zechen stared at Ye Ming's pink lips stained with water droplets, like tender flowers... He was so eager to kiss him, but this time he didn't.

If you were given another chance to choose, what would you choose

I? Or Li Zeyuan

Once I could be sure without hesitation that you would choose me, but this time I am not sure.

Because you hate me now, I am no longer the one you were willing to protect, but the one who hurt and forced you.

Li Zechen closed his eyes and let go: "Let's go back."

The room of the palace has already been cleaned in advance, and the incense is lit inside. The dishes at night are wild vegetables picked from the nearby mountains. In addition to the people who serve Li Zechen on weekdays, there are also some palaces that were originally taken care of in the palace. People, some raw faces.

At dusk, Li Zechen dealt with business affairs for a while, and Ye Ming went to the courtyard alone for a walk.

There is a lush and dense bamboo forest. Ye Ming was walking in the forest when he suddenly saw an old eunuch walking beside him carrying water. The old eunuch should be the old man in the palace here, and Ye Ming had never seen it before.

When he saw Ye Ming approaching, he immediately put down the water in his hand, knelt on the ground and saluted him respectfully.

Ye Ming was not used to others treating him like this, so he said softly, "Don't be too polite, please get up."

The old eunuch stood up slowly, with a smile on his wrinkled face, and sighed, "Young Master is as kind as rumored."

Ye Ming was startled, "You, have you heard of me?"

The old eunuch said: "The old slave listened to what the master said. The master said that the young master is a good person, but it is a pity that now he can't help himself, which makes the master very sad."

Ye Ming felt that something was wrong, why did an old eunuch here tell him this? He said solemnly, "I'm going back."

The old eunuch didn't stop him, but said, "You don't have to be afraid, the old servant is just a messenger, and he must not dare to hurt the young master. The master asked the old servant to tell the young master: He misses and worries about you very much, and can't bear to see you in such pain, I hope I can help you... If you don't want to go on like this, I will be here tonight, and the old friend invites you to meet."

Ye Ming's eyes were vigilant, he turned around and left in a hurry, he walked for a while and then looked back, there was no one in the bamboo forest.

[888: Don't guess, it's Li Zeyuan's person.]

[Ye Ming: Do you still need to guess? You underestimate me like that.]

[888:…]

[Ye Ming: But I really didn't expect that Li Zeyuan was imprisoned for a year and lost a lot of energy. He actually learned to be hypocritical. I didn't know that he had such a despicable side in addition to being arrogant and domineering... I couldn't protect myself. I'm too embarrassed to say help me, obviously you want to use me ^_^]

[888: Then are you coming at night?]

[Ye Ming: Of course I want to come, isn't the layout in front of me just for him to come over?]

[888: Are you sure you want to do this? If you really meet Li Zeyuan, Li Zechen should hate you. This is different from the previous temper tantrums. He has been testing you today!]

[Ye Ming: Alright, I know it well.]

Ye Ming returned to the courtyard. Li Zechen seemed to have just finished his work. He gave Ye Ming a deep look: "Where did Wen Qing go to relax?"

Ye Ming lowered his head and said, "Just walk around."

Li Zechen clenched his hand under his sleeve slightly, and a look of disappointment flashed across his eyes, but there was no emotion on his face, but he said lightly: "It's getting late, let's rest early, I will take you to the neighborhood tomorrow. Turn around, the scenery here is beautiful."

Ye Ming was a little uncomfortable, and didn't dare to look up at Li Zechen, but just said, "Yes."

At night, Li Zechen slept with Ye Ming in his arms. He didn't do anything, and soon let out even breathing sounds.

Ye Ming couldn't sleep at all. He looked out through the half-opened window. He estimated that he had reached the hour, and his face was full of violent struggles.

After a long time, he seemed to finally make a decision. He gently picked up Li Zechen's arm on his waist and sat up carefully.

The mere two simple movements made Ye Ming's nervous face pale. He watched it carefully for a while, convinced that Li Zechen hadn't woken up, so he quietly put on his shoes and went out.

The bamboo forest is very close to here, only separated by a wall, Ye Ming arrived quickly, but unexpectedly, there is no one here.

He stood there for a while, and suddenly felt that he was crazy. Why did he come out to meet the so-called old friends, and who could help him? He even risked doing such a thing... His eyes changed drastically, he turned around and was about to go back, but was suddenly pulled into his arms, and at the same time a palm covered his mouth, and his warm breath fell on him In his ear, the familiar deep and deep voice sounded: "It's me."

The author has something to say: Ye Ming: The author said she wanted to leave a message, but I was embarrassed to tell everyone that I was thick-skinned and asked me to ask for a message for her. I thought about it, why do you say I'm thick-skinned? Obviously she has a thicker skin, so I want to say that everyone should not leave it to her and let her cry miserably in the small dark room alone.

Author: = dish = (Today, let everyone see my eighteen styles of abuse!)

Li Zechen: Who are you trying to abuse? (pulls out knife)

The author knelt down with a thud: I didn't plan to abuse anyone, in fact, I'm a real mother, I just want to leave a message... In order to please everyone, I even prepared the Shura field...
