"Really?" Meng Zihan was in a good mood, and his voice was filled with a little joy.
"Of course, my slave is looking forward to you and thinking about you day and night." Seeing that his master was in a good mood, Xiao Mozi became happy himself and spoke louder.
"Just go ahead and flatter me!" Meng Zihan glanced at Xiao Mozi with smiling eyes, sat down on the dragon chair, and lazily turned over the memorial, looking as leisurely as if he was sipping coffee.
"Your Majesty, I have something that I don't know whether to say or not." Xiao Mozi bowed his body and lowered his head, looking like he was obeying orders. He really looked like a slave.
"If you have anything to say, just tell me, I don't have the patience to talk in circles with you here." Meng Zihan's eyes never left the memorial, and although his voice was not loud, he was a little impatient.
"Yes, please report to your Majesty, Concubine Zhen has been here several times, and I can hardly stop you." Xiao Mozi reported in a serious manner, secretly observing his master's reaction.
"What is she here for?" Meng Zihan's eyes suddenly left the memorial in his hand, and the good mood just now disappeared, and he was wondering in his heart what trouble the woman was here to cause.
"Guard Lin asks to see you." A report suddenly came from outside the door.
"Let him in. Xiaomozi, go and guard outside the door. Remember: Don't let anyone in." Meng Zihan frowned slightly, thought for a while, waved his hand, and ordered.
"Yes, I obey." Seeing his master's serious expression, Xiao Mozi knew it was an important matter and consciously stepped back from the door.
"See your Majesty." A resolute man knelt on the ground with one knee, and the door slowly closed behind him.
"Quick, get up, how about it? Is there any news?" Meng Zihan ran down happily.
"Back to the emperor, my servant disappeared halfway after following her. I only guessed that the queen must be fine because there were no traces of struggle on the ground." Guard Lin reported truthfully.
"Oh." A trace of disappointment flashed across Meng Zihan's face, and his eyes suddenly lost their luster.
"The Concubine Zhen, please see me." The sharp voices of the eunuchs came from outside the door.
outside the door
"Slave dog, who made you so bold? You didn't even let me in!" Concubine Zhen's high-pitched voice was mixed with the support of the lackeys, and the noise became louder and louder.
"I don't dare. I only know that the emperor ordered me that no one is allowed to enter. I just follow the instructions. I hope the empress will not make it difficult for me." Xiao Mozi explained humbly.
"Who do you think you are?! You are so presumptuous. Don't think that you are great because the emperor is backing you. You are trying to show off your authority to me." Concubine Zhen scolded the little boy with raised eyebrows, her expression and gestures were skillful.
It's like a coach.
Seeing that the noise outside was getting louder and louder, Meng Zihan pressed his temples impatiently, waved his hand to signal Guard Lin to step back, and then shouted to the door: "Let her come in."
"Did you hear that?! Your Majesty told me to go in, you little slave, and I will tell you to look good later." Concubine Zhen poked Xiao Mozi's hat with her finger, her threatening voice full of joy and pride.
"I have met the emperor." When the concubine saw Meng Zihan, her face changed faster than turning the page in a book, and she immediately changed into a coquettish look.
"Get up." Meng Zihan walked directly to the hall and sat down without looking at her.
"Your Majesty, you don't know that just now I didn't take my concubine seriously..." Concubine Zhen said in a jealous tone while secretly looking at Meng Zihan from the corner of her eyes.
"If you have anything to say, tell me quickly." Meng Zihan looked at her old-fashioned expression irritably and interrupted her.
"Yes, I just want to know why I haven't seen the queen sister for many days. I wanted to go to her palace to talk to my sister for a while, but I always couldn't see my sister. The servants all said that my sister was unwell." Zhen.
The concubine pretended to be well-behaved and looked like she was full of longing for her, and she narrated ramble.
"The Queen is indeed unwell. I would like to thank Concubine Zhen for her kindness on behalf of the Queen. However, if Concubine Zhen has nothing to do, she can wander around. Don't always run to the Queen. If she is accidentally infected one day, I can't say anything.
." Although Meng Zihan was extremely disgusted in his heart, he still pretended to be kind and persuaded.

"But, Your Majesty, I always feel that there is something wrong with this matter. Why do you get sick so suddenly?" Concubine Zhen was thoughtful, her eyes flickering, as if she wanted to attract Meng Zihan's attention.
Meng Zihan had always had a cold against Concubine Zhen, and he was not completely unaware of the rumors in the harem. It was just that due to the prosperity of the family and everything, it was hard to get sick. Now, Concubine Zhen didn't know what was good and came to provoke Yan'er.
The dissatisfaction in his heart deepened unknowingly. So, he said in a very unkind tone: "Concubine Zhen, are you implying that I have told you lies, or are you too leisurely?
As for always causing trouble for no reason?!"
No matter how stupid you are, you will know that the emperor intends to protect this matter. Of course, Concubine Zhen is not stupid. Even though she has thousands of doubts in her heart, in order to protect herself, she still has to put on a smile and say softly: "The emperor taught me a lesson."
Yes, I am too talkative." After saying that, he did not forget to use the beauty trick and gave Meng Zihan a charming look that captivated all living beings.
"Well, if you have nothing to do, just go down. By the way, if you let me know that you are gossiping everywhere again..." Meng Zihan deliberately only said half of the sentence, and then moved his eyes away from the memorial and gave Concubine Zhen a warning look.
.
"Yes, yes, I am resigning." Concubine Zhen was startled. She knew that the emperor's temper was not easy to offend, so she hurriedly pushed out the door, shivering like a hedgehog.
Meng Zihan was startled, his long-distance gaze moved to the window, and he sighed heavily. It seemed that this matter was almost unsolvable, and he had to find Yan'er quickly.
"Why didn't you tell them that you didn't know where Fu Meiyan was?" Haitang followed closely behind Leng Mo and kept asking this question.
"But, didn't you say that?!" Leng Mo said lightly, as if he was facing a stranger, very indifferently.
Haitang was startled, not expecting Leng Mo to blame her. For a moment, her beautiful eyes flashed, and her heart was very complicated.
"Do you still hate Meng Zihan?" In their eyes, the emperor is just a title.
Leng Mo remained silent. Did he hate it? He didn't know. He only knew that the moment he saw Meng Zihan, it reminded him of many things, Xin Yu, and the unbearable past. However, there was no hatred.
.There is only a kind of relaxation and jealousy. Relaxation is because he has let go of Xinyu, but what about jealousy? What does that mean? I am afraid that even he himself cannot tell clearly.
"Stop lying to yourself. You don't love Xinyu at all. It's just a kind of dependence. It's just possession." Haitang looked at the man who had broken her heart thousands of times with pity, feeling silently in her heart.
shed tears.
…
It seems that I have been living together with this guy named Li Bai for three or four days. The two of us do nothing but sleep and eat fish. Occasionally when he is in a good mood, he will talk to me about some irrelevant nonsense.
.
The days were as plain and terrible as boiled water. On this day, I sat bored by the only stream. I grabbed a few grasses in my hand and played with them boringly. I thought in my heart that this would not be left.
You have to stay in this ungrateful place for two and a half years to retire!
"What are you doing here?" Li Bai, dressed in white, suddenly rushed to my side and asked with concern.
"Count the days." I always tell the truth about this guy. Because I found that he is a typical brainless person. Whatever you say to him, he will definitely forget all about it in two days.
"What days to count?" I swear he asked this question at least eight hundred times. Even his tone remained unchanged.
"I count the days until I can retire with you." I said angrily. The face of the man in front of me became more and more indifferent, and the more I looked at him, the more disgusting he became.
"What's your name?" Li Bai seemed to be in a good mood today, and his eyes when he looked at me were no longer full of caution and vigilance.
"You finally remembered to ask me this question?" I couldn't help but sarcastically said. He screamed every day, which made me feel unhappy.
