Your Majesty will suffer

At the beginning of night, the evening wind blowing on the face is mixed with the aroma of early osmanthus, which is refreshing.

At the beginning of the Chinese lanterns, the moonlight is pleasant, and people can't help but want to go out to relax.Walking and watching all the way, before I knew it, I arrived at Zhouqiao Night Market.Cars and horses are crowded together, and the flow of people is like weaving.You can't take a closer look at the crowds, but you can probably guess why each family makes a living by smelling its smell and distinguishing its sound.

After passing the noisy Beishi, the road suddenly opened up, the restaurants beside the road were brightly lit, and the sound of music and music could be heard occasionally.Young women can be seen everywhere, either with heavy makeup or light makeup, smiling and welcoming.

Nan Gongji originally wanted to find a secluded place to have a drink alone, but along the way, he gradually dispelled the thought: It's dusk, how can there be a quiet place in the city?So I turned around the bridge and found another way, trying to avoid the bustling flow of people.

Under the bridge, a group of people were watching the fun, and there were sounds of quarreling and cursing.

Nangongji frowned, and wanted to go far away to avoid the crowd, but was stopped by him, smiled and pointed to the middle: "That seems to be our old acquaintance!"

Nangongji sneered: "What old acquaintance?! I think you are playing tricks again!" On the one hand, he couldn't hide his curiosity, so he leaned in, glanced at the person in the middle, and laughed: "He and I are quite old acquaintances. ?”

It turned out that it was no one else, but the old man who sold the puppet back then!At the moment, he got into an argument with someone for some reason, but he was clumsy with his tongue. At this moment, he was insulted and humiliated by others. Although he blushed with anger, he couldn't reply for a long time.

When I asked him to inquire, it turned out that the man had sold a wooden horse before, but it was exquisite and could run and bark.It's a pity that within a few days after taking it back, the naughty boy at home broke it, so the old man had to pay for a new one. If you say that the old man is also stubborn, he just refused and would rather refund the money.

Ling Qi laughed and said, "I guess it's not that he doesn't want to pay, it's just that this old man is weird. He always makes only one item, even if he wants to pay for it for a while, he can't afford it."

A bystander said: "That's not true! But how can you say that this wooden thing can't be broken? If you want to say that the buyer doesn't want it as it is, or you have to refund ten times the money, isn't it arrogant?"

Nangongji shook his head, called him to explain a few words, then turned around and left the crowd first. . .

He asked him to carefully hold the small wooden carving in his hand all the way, and said: "Your Majesty is really open-minded, two pieces of money can be exchanged for this thing, ordinary people, it has been delicious for a few days."

Nangong Ji smiled and said, "You bastard! I only taught you to help the old man lose money, but you are lucky enough to move out of the Street Division (1). Fortunately, that person was confused and taught you to fool me."

Make him angrily say: "It's true that man is unreasonable, and he wants five guans when he opens his mouth. If I really give him up, wouldn't it be a joke? Besides, I didn't just scare him. Sixty! It is clearly written in the law."

Nangong Ji said: "You know the law! It seems that following me is a waste of talent, why don't I find a job for you in the street department in two days."

Make him laugh: "Your Majesty, don't make fun of the little one!" Then he turned around and said, "The little one has the courage to say a lot today, but you, you should look for an opportunity to ask the official for a favor, and then give me another one." As an official and half-job, even presiding over the street department is a good job! After all, there are dozens of mouths in the mansion, and money is needed everywhere, we can’t just sit and eat!"

Day by day, he went in and out of the mansion by hand, making him feel that life seemed to be getting more and more difficult, and he had to plan carefully in everything, but he could not lose his dignity.It's just that my husband came here without any worries since he was a child, so as long as he doesn't have three meals, he can't be expected to think about these things.So it is necessary to remind some in due course.

Fortunately, Nan Gongji finally listened to Ling Qi's words.Thinking about the money invested in Li Qi earlier, even if there is some profit, it will have to wait until the end of the year, and the expenses of the mansion cannot be reduced any more.

Seeing that he seemed a little distracted, he presented the thing in his hand and said: "If you are troubled, how can you talk to the official? Why don't you offer this thing first to buy favor?"

Nangongji laughed and cursed.Afterwards, he sighed softly again: "He has so many things to deal with today, how can he have such leisure time?"

Hearing the words, he quickly withdrew his hand and said, "That's all, save it for playing with Mr. Xiaolang in the future." Mr. Xiaolang refers to himself as the child in Xinhe's womb.

It was Haishi when I returned to the mansion, but when I heard that Xinhe was about to give birth, Nangongji was pleasantly surprised, most of his tiredness disappeared, and hurried to Qingyuzhai where Xinhe lived.

During the meal, the candlelight was flickering, and there was still a strong smell of blood in the air.

Zhao Yun's brows were tightened, and he was choked up without saying a word. After a long time, he uttered a sentence: "It's a male fetus, it's a pity..."

Nangongji seemed to feel a basin of cold water pouring down on his head, and his heart became completely cold in an instant. . .

After mid-autumn, I gradually felt the coolness.After a scorching heat, it seems that all living beings are about to take a breather, because the singing of frogs and insects on the trees in the grass and even in the river pond have stopped.

Recently Nan Gongji often enters the palace in the evening, playing chess or chatting with the officials, or going to the back garden to relax!Just like when I was young!It's just that time flies, and as the age grows, the troubles also increase.Fortunately, I still have to be with you, which is comfort.

Nangong Jiyuan also wondered when he would mention what he had said that day to the officials, but after all, he was thin-skinned, and knowing that Yue Ling was in a bad mood, he didn't want to talk about it for a while, fearing that there would be more trouble. He is troubled.

Speaking of Yue Ling's troubles, apart from the cumbersome government affairs, the other half came from the harem!

Concubine Lin is becoming more and more presumptuous now!Let’s say that in Zhongqiu night, everyone was having a good time having a banquet and enjoying the moon, but she was furious because of a small jade hairpin. She punished the palace concubine at the banquet, which made the officials furious, and walked away in a huff!

It is said that marriage is the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker, so it is inevitable that there will be deviations!And the official family is so unhappy now, because they have already chosen a candidate, but unfortunately, the girl came from a humble background. The first emperor thought it was not enough to serve the prince, so he asked him to marry another person, because this life has no destiny for this palace.

It is true that if there is a choice, young women all over the world can always choose the one they like, but the reason why the officials can't let go of it is because they have violated their wishes in the final analysis.The forbearance cultivated since childhood makes many people accumulate anger inside, so the rebellious attitude is rarely revealed.It's just that everyone close to him knows that officials hate to impose things that he doesn't like!That is to say, at the beginning, although the will of the first emperor and empress could not be violated, even if they reluctantly accepted it, they would inevitably feel resentful. At best, they would not speak for a few days, or stay behind closed doors, or worse, they would not eat or sleep!The two saints can't do anything about it.

Now the matter of becoming a queen has touched his back again, not to mention what his original intentions were, but this Lin family is arrogant and domineering, and he has no motherly attitude. If it were another person, the officials would turn a blind eye and close their eyes. It's fine if there is an extra female official in the harem.It's just that Mrs. Lin is still a person who doesn't know how to judge the situation and restrain his edge. How can he bear it?Because it was neglected, it was actually common.

Yue Ling had nothing to say about these unsatisfactory things, but sighed with Nan Gongji when he was slightly drunk with the drink.

It was Haishi, and the candlelight in Funing Hall was flickering.

Nangong Ji barely opened his blurred eyes, and said with a smile: "Are the officials going to keep me overnight?"

Yue Ling said angrily: "I didn't keep you, you insisted on staying to beg for a drink, and now the wine is only half full, but you want to go?"

Nangongji sneered: "Come on, it looks like you won't return today if you don't get drunk!" After thinking for a while, he said: "You can drink any more, but there is a condition!"

Yue Ling raised his eyebrows: "Say!"

Then I saw the man approaching: "The officials will dismiss the palace first, and I will tell you alone."

Yue Ling stared at him for a moment, then cursed: "Drunkard! Look around again!"

The man was startled, but he really looked up and saw that there was no one around him!After thinking about it for a long time, he slapped his forehead and smiled: "It's really drunk! I forgot that the teacher was dismissed an hour ago! So, I will say it."

Yue Ling hesitated for a moment, and said with a flick of his sleeve: "Forget it, it's late today, you go back, if you have anything to say, we can talk about it tomorrow." He knew that he was so drunk that he would not be entangled in the middle of the night.

But who would have guessed that this drunken person was the most difficult to deal with, how could he give up when he was being held down? !

Yue Ling had no choice but to sit down again and said, "Say something quickly."

After a while, the man hastily pulled the chair closer, but he still felt that it was not enough, and leaned forward again, staring straight into the man's eyes, looking at the emperor very uncomfortable.

But he didn't care, Shang Gu made a serious face and said, "Has the official family not met Lin Zhaoyi yet?"

Yue Ling was dumbfounded.

Seeing this, the corner of the man's mouth raised, and a smile gradually came to his brows: "I think it's the same, and that Song beauty is really ugly, and the officials can't look down on her..."

With a sound of "pa", something seemed to fall down in the inner hall, and suddenly the drowsiness at the yellow gate outside the hall was also frightened away.

The night wind carried a hint of coolness, mixed with scattered raindrops, which made people shiver when it hit the body.

Ask him to hold a lantern and lead the way carefully, and the two yellow gates are holding drunk people on the left and right.

After walking for a long time, he sighed: "Mr. Lang should drink less. Look at this, why are the officials annoyed?"

There was no response from the people behind him, so he could only shake his head and smile wryly.

The night was dark, and no one saw the faint smile on the face of the drunk.

When drunk, it is difficult to breathe.I seem to be worried about something in my heart, and I can't sleep deeply.

I don't know when, but I felt thirsty and unbearably thirsty. I sat up in a trance, but saw a woman standing in front of the table!Surprised: "Who?"

The woman turned around slowly, but it was Xin He.

Nan Gongji was surprised and said: "It's midnight, you're not resting in your room, what are you doing here?"

Xin He Yingying stepped forward, served him tea, and said: "It's been a long time since I saw you, and I was so flustered. I heard that I got drunk again tonight. I'm worried, so I came to have a look."

Nan Gongji lowered his eyes: "Recently, the palace has frequently summoned you, and you are often not in the mansion. Besides, you have to rest, so you never went to see you, but you blame me?"

Xin He shook his head: "How could my family blame my husband? If I hadn't taken him in at the beginning, my family would have been a pile of dead bones. I can't repay my family's kindness. I thought this child could be repaid for my family. I wish, but who knows that the destiny will not be granted, what can I do for the little girl! May the gentleman forgive me?"

Nangong Ji felt a pain in his heart, but he didn't know what to say to comfort the mourning woman in front of him.In fact, he lost his dear flesh and blood, so why didn't he feel sad?It is also for this reason that these days I don't go to her, but to avoid hurting the scene.After pondering for a long time, he said lightly: "This is God's will, how can I blame you, if you want to say it, it's not that I have treated you badly..."

Xin He hurriedly covered his mouth: "Don't say that, Mr. Lang. Meeting Mr. Lang in this life is a blessing accumulated by my family for ten generations. It's a pity..."

Nangongji suddenly felt a heat in his throat and started coughing.Xin He patted him for a while, then turned to serve tea.Looking at the woman's slender back under the dim candlelight, Nan Gongji couldn't help but burst into tears.

When the genius was twilight, Nan Gongji was awakened by the noise, his headache was severe, and he couldn't help getting angry, and shouted: "Who is making the noise?"

After a moment of silence, someone opened the door and entered.

Nangong Ji was still lying down with eyes closed, only hearing footsteps approaching from far away, and stopped a few feet away from the bed, a voice said anxiously: "Mr. Tang, Mrs. Tang... is gone!"

Nangongji thought he was dreaming again.

After a while, he suddenly sat up in shock and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Huaian closed his eyes: "Miss Tang, I disappeared in the middle of the night yesterday... This morning, in the lake behind the mansion... I found it."

Nangongji was furious: "Nonsense! She was here last night, how could she be in the lake?!"

Huai An was startled, shook his head and said: "No one came last night, Mr. Lang is... remember wrong."

Nangongji felt his world spinning for a while, and his heart was already empty. . .After a long time, he woke up and turned around, as if remembering something, he turned his head and looked at the table: the pots and cups were all in place, and there was no sign of movement!Could it be that last night was really a dream?still. . .So why not?Sri Lankan people have gone, life. . .It was like a dream.
