41, long live my emperor

Today there is more festive celebration in the palace. Eunuchs and palace maids come and go, bowing their heads and busy themselves. Occasionally, they run into Lin Xun and Su Qin, and then leave in a hurry after saluting.

Lin Xun's current identity is quite embarrassing. Many people saw him not knowing what he should call him. A deposed second prince lives with the national teacher. Thinking about the indescribable relationship between the two over the days, no one dared to neglect Lin Xun anymore.

Seeing many people seeing them from afar, Lin Xun curled his lips: "Although they are very powerful, these people are avoiding you like tigers and don't come to curry favor with them. Do you know why?"

Su Qin glanced at him.

Lin Xun: "I have to give you a reward when I hear people say good things." He continued walking his legs, which were already a little sore, and said seriously: "Because you are poor."

Hearing this, Su Qin's pace slowed down for a moment and returned to his previous state.

Lin Xun walked beside him and said as if nothing had happened: "You should have heard of the fact that my father fainted in the garden that day."

Su Qin nodded.

Lin Xun: "Speaking of this, my father-in-law around me that day also lifted a lot of siege for me."

Su Qin said lightly: "A few years after the emperor ascended the throne, Li Dezhong did not have his current position. Concubine Lian had helped him settle some things privately."

Lin Xun: "But I didn't realize that my mother has the qualities of being kind and kind."

Su Qin: "Concubine Lian, she is very accurate in knowing people."

At least a few years after that, Li Dezhong sat in the current position of the chief supervisor of the inner rank.

After Lin Xun secretly remembered the name of this father-in-law, he said: "Whether it is rising to the top or coming from behind, he has to rely on the emperor's favor or favor in the palace."

He looked at Su Qin with a look: "Can the national teacher know how to get the emperor's favor?"

This question was particularly implicit, but Su Qin calmly answered him: "As a minister, know the right measure, and be a son..."

Lin Xun stopped and waited for the second half of the sentence.

Su Qin also stopped, looked at him and said word by word: "You must know how to show weakness."

An emperor is already strong enough that he does not need to see a son who is stronger than himself before he grows old.

Lin Xun thought something.

The two walked side by side, neither of them mentioned the previous topic again.

Passing by a turn, on the left is a rockery made of stones of different sizes, with green trees on both sides as a companion, which is an excellent visual blind spot.

Lin Xun, "You leave first, I will join the seat later. Now, I am afraid I will meet the leader of Changran."

Su Qin: "Before the marriage, she should not show up again."

Lin Xun shook his head: "It's better not to take this risk."

Recalling the usual style of Princess Changran, Su Qin did not have too much doubt. Perhaps the arrogant thoughts of Chen Anyan and Princess Changran were just small-scale fights for him, and he didn't even have the intention to explore and left alone.

Watching him gradually fade away, Lin Xun glanced around and rushed into the back of the rockery.

"You said there was a way to help me change my appearance."

【System: Just…】

Lin Xun: "I will return the money in seven days."

In a moment, what happened to be a pretty eunuch.

Lin Xun touched his sleeves and face, and his expression changed slightly: "It's just a man|a leather mask and old clothes, but he actually collected thousands of silver from me."

He tidied up the hem of his lower clothes and vowed that within a year he would replace the hat on his head with a second-rate red hat, with auspicious cloud patterns on his sleeves, becoming a legendary chief manager who calls for the wind and rain.

In the palace, there were busy and orderly, and no one noticed that there were many young eunuchs not far from the palace gate.

The sound of the wheels came, Lin Xun lowered his eyebrows and hid in the night.

He stood on the empty ground, and the groom stopped, and a man in court uniform came down inside. When he saw Lin Xun, he frowned, "This is..."

Before he continued to speak, Lin Xun stepped forward and whispered: "The slave was sent by Eunuch Li."

As soon as he heard the three words "Eunuch Li", the man in court immediately raised his ears and listened carefully. Eunuch Li is a big celebrity around the emperor, and he must have sent people to talk about it.

Lin Xun's voice lighter: "My father-in-law sent me to explain to the Lord. Today, the emperor is in a particularly bad mood. Don't take the initiative to mention anything about Lianguo during the meal."

The man in court was puzzled: "Isn't today's banquet just to entertain the envoy of the Lotus Kingdom?"

Lin Xun: "Eunuch Li just sent a slave to pass the message. Whether to listen or not is his own business."

Hearing what he said, the man in court thought that this was a big deal. He thought that he would still have this topic during the meal, but now he had the illusion of saving his life by chance.

"Thank you, my father-in-law, for sending the message." He felt a little more grateful in his words. He took out some scattered silver and stuffed it into Lin Xun's hand.

Lin Xun pretended to take a step back, "Sir, why did this make me a slave just..."

"This wallet is for Eunuch Li. As for the rest, I am thankful for sending the message."

Lin Xun, "In this way, the slave accepted it."

The man in court said, "This father-in-law can be sent by Eunuch Li to spread the message at a young age. I believe he is deeply trusted. I hope to inform you of any news in the future."

Lin Xun: "This is nature."

The sound of the wheels sounded again, and Lin Xun continued to pretend to be a tiger's power, waiting for the next one.

...

"Sir, Eunuch Li asked me to tell you not to mention protons during the meal."

"Prince, Eunuch Li asked his slave to take a message and be careful today to avoid angering the emperor."

"General..."

In less than half a stick of incense, Lin Xun's wallet was already heavy and it was difficult for him to walk.

He was sure that there would be no more carriages or sedan chairs passing by. Looking at the closed palace gate, Lin Xun moved back step by step, passing by a small lake, looking up at the particularly beautiful night, sighing: "This is the weight of life!"

He sighed, but the banquet in the hall officially began.

Su Qin sat in a position just below the emperor, looking at Princess Changran who had indeed come here, thinking that Lin Xun was still unknown, he frowned slightly.

"I have heard that the north of Lianguo is located on the desert sea, with abundant resources, and some rare things found from the sea."

The messenger smiled bitterly: "It's in vain to rely on the sea. This year, the country's drought is strange. The desert sea is in the extreme north, and there is a sparse population. And a few days ago, there was a sudden news that a strange disease was circulating among fishermen. Those sent to inquire about the news were also infected with strange disease and died."

Hearing the word "strange disease", Chen Han's eyes flashed over Su Qin.

The latter sits upright, with a light wind and clouds, like a graceful young man in the turbid world.

"Princess Changran will marry to Lian Kingdom soon. Since the two countries have in-laws, I will try to help."

A joy flashed in the messenger's eyes.

Eunuch Li said at the right time: "Your Majesty, the time is almost the same, and the dishes have been served."

His sharp and narrow eyes looked around, "Today, guests from afar, don't be polite, just have fun during the meal."

All civil and military officials stood up: "Thank you, the Emperor."

The intoxicating wine, delicious food, everyone silently picked up the food, and swallowed it silently.

Except for the occasional chopsticks that make a subtle sound when they hit the edge of the plate, the rest of the time is particularly quiet.

Chen Han: "What do you think is the Lotus Emperor sending the prince to our country to exchange culture?"

Many of the people here remembered what the little eunuch said in front of the palace gate, and none of them answered.

I was silent for too long, afraid that it would cause the emperor to be unhappy, so I finally stood up and said, "This is a good thing."

All officials agreed: "Okay."

Chen Han: "... During the prince's stay, you should give in to three points. Since it is for communication, who do you think is the best thing to be responsible for this?"

In previous years, many people would volunteer to do such things, and no one would be willing to do it without any effort.

Now it is-

"I think Mr. Zhao is good."

"Where is Master Sun who is really knowledgeable."

"Weichen is old, so he will leave more opportunities to young people."

The envoy of the Lotus Kingdom also realized that the atmosphere was wrong and took the initiative to find a hot topic: "I heard that Princess Changran has a peerless appearance and a kind heart. When I saw him today, he was indeed well-known."

Princess Changran was bored and played with the soup spoon. She didn't hear what he was saying at all. She thought in her mind why Chen Anyan hadn't come yet. His ban status had not been temporarily lifted.

Unable to get a response, the messenger sat down embarrassedly.

While walking on the road, Lin Xun did not realize that he had already "winned thousands of miles away", and everyone was uncomfortable with the originally wonderful banquet.

At this moment, he felt a little relaxed because he had paid off the system's silver and there was still some money left.

"The one in front!" A hurried voice came from behind.

Lin Xun stopped.

"Which palace is you from? If you don't go to help, you'll be wandering around here?"

Lin Xun did not dare to claim that he was Eunuch Li. The ministers were relatively unsure of the matters in the deep palace, but these eunuchs and palace maids were very clear about it.

He said vaguely: "I was sent by a noble man to deliver a letter."

On this day, it is not surprising that several empresses in the palace sent someone to send a message to their families who came.

"Hurry up." A tray was placed on his hand, "There are not enough people in the hall, so you can take it over first."

The speaker should have a great status among eunuchs when wearing hidden clothes.

Lin Xun had no choice but to do so.

When I walked to the door, I didn’t hear any cups or chatting.

Lin Xun raised his eyebrows. Shouldn’t the banquet be very lively?

He had no idea that he was the culprit, and he lowered his head and walked in carefully with a group of people. Lin Xun, who originally thought that he would not attract attention, did not know that any movement at this time would cause everyone to look up and watch.

He bowed and placed a plate of fruit in front of a minister, and was about to leave the court, but he felt that a glance was only on him among the many people.

Lin Xun raised his eyes and happened to see Su Qin holding a white jade porcelain cup. The look of his eyes at him was unclear.
