The Humble Spare Tire is Set After the Car Rolls Over

If this is the case, shouldn't you be happy that her husband is in prison?

Lou Yue did not say these words.

Chao Ci was stunned, as if he didn't expect Lou Yue to suddenly say this.

Then he couldn't help laughing, without any nervousness at all: "Cousin was ignorant at that time."

"She was only thirteen or fourteen years old at that time, and she didn't understand anything. When she saw that the concubine was born beautifully, she said that she wanted to marry the concubine. The concubine only loved her brother and sister, and she never went beyond the norm, so naturally she could not delay her. Later, she married Yang Zhen. Yang Zhen was an upright person, an honest official, and a virtuous person. Although his life was not much wealthy, he treated my cousin very well. I don't mind."

The folk customs of Da Chu are relatively open, and it is not uncommon for women to actively pursue their sweethearts before marriage.

Lou Yue was noncommittal, and his eyes fell on the sea bass soup that Chao Ci gave him.

Who knew that Chao Ci directly hit him with a straight ball: "Why did Your Majesty suddenly ask this? But you're jealous?"

Lou Yue moved his gaze to him, already feeling a little cold.

Chao Ci was not afraid of this, he smiled and said: "I really have a crush on Your Majesty, and I can't wait to write these two words on your face, can Your Majesty really not see it?"

"…"

It's not that he can't see it.

Who can't see it? In the eyes of the young man is the most sincere and straightforward admiration, the appearance of loving someone completely. He never hides his love. Those literary talents that are praised by outsiders are unparalleled in the world, but they are used by him to write poems and express their feelings to him. In the past, he did not touch the hands of the sun, planted flowers and grass for him, and made soup for him. .

But... these are so good, they are a little light.

Even when it comes to bed matters, no matter how much Lou Yue makes excessive demands, Chao Ci will

They had never met before, and on the second day of the wedding, he let him drink Bizi soup. He always speaks coldly, and there are few good colors... Why should such a Louyue be liked so much by Chaoci?

He placed Chao Ci as the master of the six palaces, and Chao Ci took care of the harem in an orderly manner. He deliberately favored some concubines in order to hide his eyes and ears, but he did not see any jealousy in Chao Ci.

Chao Ci's love is like devotion with all one's heart, but also like being aloof. He could completely tolerate Lou Yue, even connivance, but Lou Yue could never see through him.

He knew that Chao Ci only had brother and sister love for Na Ning, and knew that Chao Ci couldn't have any other thoughts about the women in his harem... But he couldn't help but ask.

You really like me? Why should I make you like it?

Lou Yue took away the obscurity in his eyes, paused, and then asked again, "Yang Zhen is a thousand-year-old jinshi."

"This year's palace exam is just over a month away... If you never entered the palace, this year's champion should be you. Just like your father, you won the third prize."

Chao Ci seemed to understand what Lou Yue meant.

Thinking about it carefully, if it was the original court speech, would he really not complain?

He was astonishingly talented, and since he was a child, he has been aiming to gain fame and ask for life for the people, for nearly 20 years. Once you enter the palace, everything is in vain.

Since then, his whole life has been surrounded by red walls, fighting with those women to ask for a man's favor.

How could he have no resentment at all, he could have displayed his ambitions in a wider world, but now he is trapped in a square inch.

In fact, this is also the pimple in the heart of the previous dynasty when he first entered the palace. It's just that people can't be immersed in what they have lost. Chao Ci is a person who is easy to look away from. Later, he fell in love with Lou Yue and worked together for a lifetime. In fact, there is nothing unsatisfactory.

I always want to hold everything in my hand, but I am not greedy enough.

These court speeches have long been seen, and he has lived a new life, and has long been obsessed with them.

But before he could say anything, his initial silence was caught by Lou Yue.

"That's all." Lou Yue said, "I will thoroughly investigate Yang Zhen's matter."

In fact, even if Chao Ci did not ask him to come, Yang Zhen would not be guilty of it.

The corruption case involved dozens of people, and Yang Zhen was just pushed out as a scapegoat. Yang Zhen is a student of Chao Mingzhi. Chao Mingzhi is standing on Lou Yue's side, which has actually caused dissatisfaction among many aristocratic families... The twists and turns in officialdom are nothing more than that.

...

Another half year.

The corruption case half a year ago seemed to be the fuse for Lou Yue to thoroughly clean up the imperial court and uprooted a large number of forces. Those aristocratic families only knew that the emperor, whom they looked down upon, had grown to such a degree. They thought that the emperor was isolated and helpless in the court, but in fact they were already isolated.

The blood on the execution ground could not fade.

The turmoil in the courtroom will calm down just now.

The day of this year's draft is approaching.

Today, the Yishan Banquet was held at the Yishan Tower as usual. I heard that the emperor would also come to the Yishan Banquet, so the literati at the banquet became even more enthusiastic, talking loudly and pointing the country.

They were all waiting for Lou Yue to come, but they didn't know that Lou Yue was already in Yishan Building.

In the hidden wing, a bright and beautiful woman sat beside Lou Yue.

She had no intention of listening to those literati's rhetoric, but looked at the tall man in front of her, and said hesitantly, "Now that the imperial court is in His Majesty's hands, the court speech is useless. Seeing that the draft is imminent, Your Majesty... should you find an excuse? Saying goodbye to..."

The man's gaze on her was as cold as a thorn.

He paused for a while, but did not continue.

But resentment rose again in his heart.

She endured and endured, but still couldn't help but said, "Your Majesty promised to marry me earlier, but now it's too much to do?"

She lived a new life, and with the help of those who were one step ahead of the others, she helped Lou Yue to know how many people were. Now that Lou Yue has become the honor of the ninety-five, should she be abandoned like straws?

Chaohua was not a very shrewd person in the past, and now it is inevitable that resentment will arise.

Lou Yue didn't answer, and glanced at Lin Cheng beside him.

Lin Cheng understood and came up to pour Lou Yue a cup of tea.

Lou Yue picked up the tea and said slowly, "You enter the palace first, the court speech...it's still useful."

"What's the use? Now the Chaotang is no longer His Majesty's one-word hall?" Chaohua asked.

Lou Yue paused, then raised his eyes and glanced at Chao Hua.

Chaohua froze all of a sudden.

She understood that she was too impulsive and overstepped the line.

"Chaohua knew he was wrong." She lowered her head.

"If you can't be prudent in your words and deeds, if you enter the palace like this, I'm afraid you will have a hard time ending." Lou Yue said.

Chaohua did not speak.

But the lowered eyes were full of resentment.

Lou Yue had promised her to marry her. If that was the case, then she would be the queen, so why should she be cautious in her words and deeds?

But now her position is occupied by her arrogant, feigned brother.

What Chao Hua was thinking was almost written on his face.

She used to be able to disguise a little, but now that Lou Yue has sat in that position, she has been slow to get what she wants.

"Let's go here today." Lou Yue said, then got up and strode away.

Lin Cheng also followed him.

Leave Chaohua alone in the wing.

Hearing the sound of footsteps leaving, she stood up abruptly and pushed all the cups on the table to the ground.

Lou Yue was moved by Chao Ci.

No matter how stupid she is, she can see it.

What kind of magic does Chao Ci have? A tough man can make Lou Yue plant two lives in his hands!

If so...

She clenched her hands tightly, her eyes full of venom.

Chao Ci, you forced me.

...

Chao Ci's mood is not very beautiful.

Lou Yue didn't know what the wind was blowing, so he tossed him to death as soon as he came back from outside the palace.

From the tossing of life and life in the daytime to the middle of the night, I couldn't cry when I cried in the morning, and I could only let my consciousness rise and fall.

The next day, he developed a high fever and became unconscious.

The imperial doctor came to see him, and it was nothing more than a lack of kidney water, abstinence from sexual intercourse, etc. After giving some medicine to Chao Ci, he retired.

The palace maid who was in charge of delivering Bizi soup to Chao Ci stood in front of the bed with the soup medicine in her hand, looking at the unconscious Queen Empress, wondering what to do.

"Your Majesty..." she said hesitantly.

Lou Yue glanced at the Bizi soup she was holding.

After a while, he said, "Forget it today."

"...Yes." The palace maid withdrew.

Half an hour later, the medicine prescribed for Chao Ci was delivered by the Tai Hospital.

The maid next to Chao Ci was about to serve Chao Ci, but was stopped by Lou Yue.

Lou Yue took the bowl of soup by himself and said, "You all go down."

"Yes." Several palace servants in the palace retired.

Lou Yue took the soup and sat beside Chao Ci's bed. He carried him to his side again, leaning half of his body on him.

Little by little, the medicine was fed to the person in his arms.
