This master is fake and cold

Chapter 18 Candidates

The second purpose is that Changle wants to use these things to awaken Emperor Jing's love for her. Although he has loved her a lot, it is not enough!It must be so much that she can refuse anyone's proposal without worrying about offending the officials because of scruples about the other party's identity; so much that she can freely choose the husband-in-law she wants, even if that person is just a dandy emperor who has achieved nothing Either is acceptable, just because that's what she wants.

If not, with so many ministers present, even if the emperor doesn't care, it's impossible for Changle to let Changle pick and choose the meat they care about like a cabbage on the side of the road.The emperor actually had candidates in his heart, but those candidates were not very good choices for Changle.Those royalists who seem to be neutral and firm have actually already taken sides secretly.It's just that the news has been blocked. It's a dark chess game prepared by her second and third brothers.

It stands to reason that it is impossible to find out these secret information with Changle's intelligence forces.It's just that she has always held one of the emperor's hidden guards, which was originally assigned to her by the emperor to ensure her safety.Since they are both royal secret guards, they can naturally share the source of information about the emperor in the palace.

But although these people who have information about the emperor can find out these things, ever since Emperor Jing was furious because the queen mother accused his sons of wolf ambition in front of him, no one was afraid of death to present these things to the emperor. in front of it.Even so, the head of the emperor's dark guard is very loyal, and he is extremely worried about such a situation.However, after hinting to the emperor several times, which almost killed Huang Quan, he had no choice but to take a detour and save the country, reporting all the news that his subordinates should have concealed to Chang Le, and keeping an open eye on Chang Le's "exceeding authority" behavior from time to time. Close one eye.

Yan Wang took great pains to set up a game, thinking that Changle had become a defeated opponent, and it would be difficult to turn around.He always felt that Changle was a woman, and that the marriage of his daughter's family should not depend entirely on the orders of the parents and the words of the matchmaker.As long as the "chess piece" he selected has a clean family background, it can be seen by the emperor.The emperor gave an order, even if Changle didn't want to, didn't he still have to obey his father's decision?When the two parties become in-laws and Changle is bound by his power, why not let him handle it?

He thought very well, but how could he have expected that Changle would be so bold and find another way, wanting to attack the emperor directly, as long as the emperor agrees to let her choose by herself, then there is no room for him to intervene?

Sure enough, the emperor lost his mind and murmured into the ears of several people: "Yes, little Changle has grown up like this in a blink of an eye. In my memory, Changle was still the one who was greedy and climbed on the tree, but couldn't get down. The little girl who dare not ask the palace people to help. That Chang Le, who is only as tall as my calf, has become a big girl in a blink of an eye, and has reached the age to marry. How time flies so fast, I and your mother really don't want to part with it ah……"

Chang Le looked at her father's temples stained with white hair, and couldn't help but redden her eyes.She couldn't deny that when she and her second and third brothers were fighting for power, they took advantage of her father's love for her countless times.It was precisely because of this biggest and most important advantage that she, the weakest of the three, was not immediately eliminated by the brutal competition.

But even if she knew it was wrong, so what?With no one to help behind her, and no powerful foreign family to hand over her huge power, she had a very difficult start!She has trained too few subordinates, compared to the other two, she is like a mayfly shaking a tree, and she seems to be vulnerable.

But what made her harden her heart again and again, what made her have to be strong, was the pampering and warmth of her father, queen and queen.This is not only the driving force for her to move forward, but also the pressure on her shoulders all the time.They gave her the best things they could give her, and let her enjoy the best family affection. How could she bear to let them become victims of the power struggle, and when they were old, they would wander around and have nowhere to turn?

The hands under the table were tightly clenched into fists, but they were quickly released.Changle's determination, which was slightly shaken by the queen mother's affairs, became firm again.Even if the emperor is ruthless to the empress dowager, her father is the one who treats her best. Although she feels sorry for what happened to the empress dowager, she can still distinguish between close and distant relatives, and there will be no gap between her and her father because of this matter. .

"Then father, please don't marry Changle too far away. If you choose a husband-in-law for Changle who is often outside, and it is difficult to come back to see father, emperor and mother, Changle will not follow."

From the corner of Changle's eyes, Su Yong seemed to be unresponsive. He tilted his head and stared at the carved patterns on the wine cup expressionlessly.He had originally mentioned this palace banquet, but at this time, he seemed to have suddenly lost interest in it.

Su He's eyes were a little strange, and what he said was undoubtedly Li Feng.As the most promising son of the mighty general, and the newly appointed commander of the imperial army, commanding one hundred thousand imperial troops to defend the capital, he won the emperor's trust.Powerful, powerful, family background, good looks and talent, Li Feng is a top-notch existence among the younger generation, and it is not that he is not worthy of Changle.Although he is currently serving in Beijing, everyone knows that this is only temporary. After all, his father is a mighty general who has been guarding the north for many years. He will one day want his son to inherit his father's footsteps.

What surprised everyone except Chang Le was the emperor's attitude. The emperor couldn't help laughing at first, but he denied Chang Le's remarks about his favorite son-in-law, showing no sign of dissatisfaction.Then he suddenly came to his senses, pretending to be angry and said: "You are a daughter, you are not ashamed to talk about these things!"

Chang Le pursed her lips, showing a shy expression at the right time.But the emperor paused for a moment, then hesitated and said: "Forget it, it's inappropriate to call you here tonight. Li Feng, you don't think it's appropriate, then take a look at these young talents in the audience, see if there is anything that catches your eye ? Don't worry, tell your father to listen, and your father will definitely choose a good husband who suits your wishes."

King Yan wanted to interrupt several times, but he, who has always been embarrassed in front of Emperor Jing, was glared at by him impatiently for several times in a row. Obviously, in Emperor Jing's heart, they are just accompaniments tonight, and today is Changle's home game .In the end, under Wen Xiang's comforting eyes, he could only remain silent reluctantly.

Chang Le's eyes slowly swept across the audience. Many young men seemed restless because of the conversations they couldn't hear on the stage. Seeing that their eyes suddenly looked over at this moment, each of them held their heads high, for fear that the emperor and Chang Le would look at them. less than yourself.

Changle was a little disappointed. After looking around, the only ones who could make her eyes stop for a moment were Li Feng who was calmly sipping tea, Sun Tzu Wenbu, who was sitting quietly and was the Minister of the Ministry of War, and sitting among the five big and three rough military officers. Standing out from the crowd, a strange and gentle man.

The emperor saw her look in his eyes, saw her confused, and explained: "He is this year's champion of the new discipline, named An Xu. An Aiqing is not only talented in literature, but also excellent in martial arts. It is also very good to face Li Fengzheng. He is not at all inferior, he is truly a genius with both civil and military skills. I admire him very much, but I have not yet decided what official position to give him, Changle thinks he is still attractive?"

The palace examination just ended yesterday, so it's no wonder that Chang Le has never met this person.Chang Le secretly glanced at Su He's expression, because the distance was almost at hand, she could clearly detect a trace of extremely shallow tension on his face.She knew in her heart that there was no rule that princes and princes could be accompanied during the imperial examination in the Daqing Dynasty, and it was likely that the two of them hadn't had time to win over the new champion.

Take a gamble?Chang Le hesitated a little, but at this time Su He saw that she was a little moved, and finally couldn't help it. Regardless of Wen Xiang's obstruction, he forced himself to cup his hands and said to Emperor Jing: "Father, according to Erchen, the third sister seems to be An Zhuangyuan, Li Tongling and Wen Shilang are undecided, and it will be winter hunting soon, why don't the father let them take this opportunity to compete? It will also save sister Changle from embarrassing."

Chang Le had expected that he would not give up easily, and there was no surprise when he heard the words, and his expression seemed to be a smile but not a smile.The timing of his intrusion was ingenious, the emperor had already had this idea, seeing that his intentions coincided with his own, so he didn't blame him, turned his head and asked Empress Qi, "Empress, what do you think?"

The queen just glanced at her daughter's expression and understood that she also acquiesced in this proposal, and bowed her head and said: "Everything is up to His Majesty."

The candidate was finalized in this way, when most of the ministers were still in a daze and did not react.The emperor ordered the banquet to start, and at the same time he had already left first, and by the way, An Xu, Wenbu and Li Feng were also called away.As soon as he made this move, the onlookers who didn't know why immediately understood the emperor's choice, and couldn't help secretly regretting that his son had missed an opportunity.

Once the emperor left, someone had to host the banquet. Who else could take on this responsibility except the queen?Instead, Changle, Su Yongsu and the three left the banquet.Changle was kicked out by the queen, and since the candidate has been decided, it is not an appropriate move for her to show her face in front of so many foreign men.She wanted to follow her to see what her father was going to say to those three people, but was stopped by the attendants beside him.In desperation, he had no choice but to return to Luanfeng Palace the same way.

When she turned around, she happened to meet Su and Su Yong who followed her out.She stepped back calmly, and Goya blocked her behind vigilantly.

Su He looked at Su Yong angrily, and said coldly: "Your luck is still so good this time, I want to see if your luck will always be so good!"

Maybe it was Su Yong who was scruples about being beside him, so he left without saying this.Only Su Yong was left alone, but Goya became more nervous.She stayed by Changle's side for long enough, and Changle would not hide anything from her, she knew that this person was the most terrifying and the most worth guarding against.

He just looked at Changle indifferently and didn't speak.Chang Le frowned slightly, and opened his mouth first: "Second brother, what's the matter?"

Su Yong twitched the corners of his mouth, as if he wanted to show a smile, but he didn't know if his face had been expressionless for a long time, and the curvature of the corners of his lips seemed extremely stiff: "Why didn't you see your other maid?"
