Chapter 58: Zi Fei
"So, I believe that Your Majesty will definitely control the people around you." Qin Sheng raised his amber eyes and looked at Emperor Xingping faintly. It seemed gentle and respectful, but the chill in his words made Emperor Xingping feel chilled.
Emperor Xingping looked at the person in front of him for a long time before laughing helplessly: "So many years have passed. I thought your temperament has become gentle and mellow as they said, but now it still seems to be as rebellious as before."
"Your Majesty should be very clear about what kind of person Cao Min is. If His Majesty has nothing to do, Cao Min will surrender. As for the affairs in Jiangnan, Hongxiu will take his people to hand over to Eunuch Lu and the servants around you according to the old rules." After Qin Sheng finished speaking, she lowered her eyes, owed her body gracefully, and turned around and prepared to leave.
"Wait, Sheng'er!" Emperor Xingping couldn't help but raise his voice as he saw him leaving.
"Your Majesty, it's better to call the grass-roots Qinsheng. After all, the grass-roots are not even the ministers. How can you bear your love?" Qinsheng stopped and said gently.
Emperor Xingping looked at Qin Shengxiu's back, with a complicated look on his face, and asked carefully: "Okay, but I still want to call you for a while. The word you are given by me."
Although Emperor Xingping was gentle, his gentle attitude towards Qin Sheng was even more gentle than his gentleness to his descendants and others around him. If it fell into the eyes of others, I would be afraid of saying a word - it was a strange thing, I don’t know how many rumors would be born.
Eunuch Lu stood in the corner, looking at his nose and his heart, and even breathing was as light as if it was not there. He almost merged himself with the pillar behind him. In the past, he was very proud of the emperor's servant in the palace and in front of him, and now he looked like a statue without life and inconspicuousness.
If he had not had any sensible vision in this palace, he would not be able to pretend to be dead or behave well, and he would probably have died clearly.
However, when Eunuch Lu heard the cautious voice of His Majesty the Emperor, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It was because of His Majesty's extraordinary importance that there was a rumor that Mr. Qin was the illegitimate child left by His Majesty outside. His biological mother was the one whom His Majesty loved deeply. Only those who had been ridiculous rumors were afraid that the grave grass was three feet tall at this moment.
"Zi Fei..." Seeing that Qin Sheng did not turn around, Emperor Xingping did not refuse. A helpless and stern smile flashed in his old eyes: "I know that your child is still blaming me. I shouldn't have listened to those bastards and put you in such an awkward position today, and even the child in Qiancheng was married..."
"Your Majesty." Qin Sheng turned around, looked at His Majesty the Emperor with a cold expression, and said coldly: "Caomin has forgotten the past since the day he left Shangjing that year. Why do you still have to be upset? Don't you hear that those who abandon me will not stay yesterday. You still hope that Caomin will only remember those things that are not favored."
The faint coldness and indifference in Qin Sheng's eyes made Emperor Xingping froze. He couldn't even spit out his thoughts. He just looked at Qin Sheng in a daze, but his heart was extremely uncomfortable. In the end, the greetings and care that had accumulated for a long time were all changed into one sentence: "Zifei, that little girl... treats you well?"
Qin Sheng was silent for a while when he heard this, suddenly a strange smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "I... treat me well."
Qin Sheng's smile was like the spring breeze passing by on the frozen earth for thousands of miles, the ice and snow melted, and the gentle flowing water made Emperor Xingping and Eunuch Lu in a moment of trance, almost suspected that he had read it wrong.
But in just a moment, Qin Sheng returned to his usual cold appearance: "Your Majesty, if nothing happens, Caomin will step back and pick up his son first."
After saying that, he ignored whether Emperor Xingping responded and left alone.
When Emperor Xingping saw him leave, he called out anxiously again: "Zi Fei..."
Qin Sheng paused and spoke again, his voice as cold as dark as it was heard from the abyss: "Zi Feiyu, the joy of developing fish. Your Majesty once gave the word "this intention", but Your Majesty must not forget that Qiu Zifei has already died in the north of Mo, and his body is already cold."
He chuckled lightly, his laughter as cold as the snow and wind outside the window, soaking his heart: "Why do you have to drag it out and whip the corpse?"
After saying that, he left gracefully.
When Emperor Xingping heard this, he felt like he was struck by lightning. He only watched the figure of Xiubai flash, and then disappeared into the study room, but the chill was not dissipated.
Emperor Xingping stood for a while, his body shook, and then he fell backwards.
Eunuch Lu was prepared and rushed over quickly, caught Emperor Xingping's body, his face full of anxiety: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Imperial Doctor..."
"Stop talking... I don't need an imperial physician. You old guy... don't have to make your own decisions." Emperor Xingping covered his chest and sat down on the couch with the support of Eunuch Lu in a little uncomfortable manner. It took a while to ease the dark clouds in front of him.
"Your Majesty, why are you doing this? Since the Third Master is unwilling to mention the past... Alas." Eunuch Lu looked at the emperor's bad face, and went to get the prepared medicinal tea to feed it to Emperor Xingping, while rubbing the acupoints on his hands to relieve his discomfort.
He looked down at the emperor's hands. His fingers were slender, but they were skinny, as thin as the emperor's body.
How many taels of meat can a person who has been sick for a long time?
After a while, the emperor recovered. He looked at the bowl of medicinal tea, closed his eyes and shed tears: "Yes... I'm sorry to elder sister. The elder sister burned the orphan in front of the Eastern Palace. I promised to fight for her life and protect her last bit of blood. But after so many years, the child fell into a sickness like me and was exiled to Jiangnan... Even his marriage was matched with such a common girl of unknown origin. With Sheng'er's qualifications, even if he was a legitimate princess, he would be defamated. It was my fault. It was my emperor who was too cowardly... It was me... I... I..."
"Your Majesty is saying stupid again, right?" Eunuch Lu's body was a little stiff, but after a moment, he still laughed, patting his hand to relieve the emperor's chest, and whispered in a soft voice: "The princess naturally cannot be worthy of the third master. This is all family blood, so it is naturally despicable to everyone. Besides, you gave the third master the word "Zifei". Isn't it just that the third master can do everything in his life and live leisurely, and there will always be always happiness with you?"
Eunuch Lu saw the emperor's expression gradually slowing down. He paused and continued to comfort: "Now, people from Jiangnan come to report that the third master loves the young lady Chu Yu very much. Although Miss Chu Yu is a civilian, she has served in the official family at least. Her qualifications are not bad. Westerners have praised her for being very young. Prince Lian also said that she is smart and intelligent, and she is also a very kind person..."
"Well... the English envoy really praised this girl in front of me. I didn't expect that she, a mere local constable, had such a vision." Emperor Xingping nodded thoughtfully and sneered: "That old man, at this age, is still coming to me to make a tantrum and insisting on accepting her as his adopted daughter, or the kind of adopted daughter who entered the Royal Jade Plate. I think she is also a very tricky person, and she actually made Sheng'er look at her so differently... I felt it was clear at the first glance today."
Eunuch Lu waited for the emperor to lean on the soft pillow and went to remove his boots: "What you said is that you have to look at people. The old slave was not a scheming person when he looked at the girl, but then again, if there was no way, if you really had no means, you would be unable to stand the silly and sweet girl next to the third master, you would be afraid that you would not be able to stand the third master's temperament in a few days. You know the third master's temperament..."
If Qin Sheng's temperament is attracted by him, he will be able to favor him. If he is not attracted by him, he will not be able to fall in front of him. He will mostly be a regretful ending.
"Well, you have some reason. Sheng'er's temperament is obedient." The emperor's eyes were slightly dark, and then he sighed: "It's all my fault..."
Seeing the emperor falling into sadness and self-blame again, Eunuch Lu wiped the sweat from his head and immediately changed his voice in a delicate voice: "So, it doesn't matter what kind of background a person is. He can get into the eyes of the Third Master and live so happily with the Third Master, that is more capable than most women in this world. The most important thing is..."
Emperor Xingping was stunned, but his pretended suspicion caused a little interest: "What's the main thing?"
"The most important thing is that the third master loves the girl named Xiaoyu. It is hard to buy a good friend of his heart. The third master bears more than a thousand gold, but he has to be so kind in his life. I just hope that he will not lose his love again." Eunuch Lu sighed, looking very sad.
Emperor Xingping looked at him, his expression became complicated in an instant, with a turbulent look in his eyes, and then he murmured to himself: "Yes, what better reason than to love him... Since Sheng'er rarely likes him so much, I, the uncle, am sorry for him. I have been on the throne of the elder sister in this life, but I can't bear the burden given by the elder sister, and I can't even protect her child... This time, I will never let that child be sad again."
Eunuch Lu listened to the emperor's previous words, a smile flashed in his eyes, and then handed Emperor Xingping a cup of medicinal tea.
The emperor took the teacup and took a sip. Suddenly he remembered something, and raised his phoenix eyes to look at Eunuch Lu and smiled coldly: "Lu Dagui, I found that you, the old boy, have been saying good things for that little girl today. If I hadn't known you too much, I would have thought you had taken her benefits."
The emperor's face is June, change at any time.
The last moment he was the sad uncle, and the next moment he could get you out of order.
Eunuch Lu instantly bent his waist to ninety degrees, and he looked in tears: "My Emperor, I am not afraid of you being sad. I can't figure it out for a moment. The third master is angry. You said that it's so unfair to be angry. The third master is your heart. I have been with you for a long time?"
Emperor Xingping paused and sneered: "You old guy is awesome!"
Then he looked at the medicinal tea in his hand and said with a deep look: "No, this time it won't happen, and it won't happen like Mobei back then. Even the queen... can't..."
He didn't say anything.
But a trace of light flashed in the drooping eyes of Eunuch Lu.
Emperor Xingping paused, suddenly remembered something again, narrowed his eyes and asked, "I seem to have heard that the girl Su Qiancheng returned to Beijing for the New Year some time ago?"
