Chapter 198
Chapter 198
It was night, and Man Chen temporarily rested in Fuwei Palace, which is relatively remote in the palace.Xiaolou didn't know where he went to look for food again, anyway, it didn't hurt anyone, so he just opened his eyes and closed his eyes to his wicked pranks.If you have suffered at the hands of Xiaolou, no matter who you are, you can only be considered unlucky.Otherwise...you can reason with a tiger if you have the ability.
At that time, Man Chen was absent-mindedly flipping through a book of poetry, and Bi Xue served the seasonal melons and fruits that Emperor Pan Changyuan had just ordered, and said, "Emperor Changyuan treated you very well, you are just here If you stay here for one night, he will give you food and supplies. When you have your own mansion, you don’t know what kind of rewards you will receive."
Man Chen flipped a page casually, and just smiled when he heard the words, "You girl, you are easy to buy!"
Bixue blushed and said angrily, "Young master is making fun of me!"
Man Chen closed the book and said, "Okay, I won't laugh at you anymore. It's getting late, you should go down and rest too!"
Bixue put down the fruit plate, and said respectfully, "Then servants will not bother you, and you should rest earlier!"
Man Chen glanced at the plate of moist and fresh melons and fruits with heavy eyes, an indescribable boredom flashed in his eyes, and he ordered, "Leave two bunches of grapes, and eat the rest!"
After all, Bixue is a little girl, she happily agreed upon hearing this, "Thank you, Young Master!"
Not long after Bixue went out, Li Fu came in again, holding a bright red apple in his hand, which was obviously stuffed by Bixue when Wencai came in.
Li Fu came in and closed the doorway, "Master!" Man Chen replied lightly, "You're back?"
Li Fu nodded and said, "My lord, Mr. Peng Huaiyu and Mr. Heng Qiutong dragged people along to say that they are still willing to follow you!"
Man Chen propped his forehead with his hands and said, "I know what they want, but I'm afraid I'll bury them if I don't have a solid foundation here. It's better to let them stay in Kangle and help the new emperor!"
Li Fu said, "Yes, presumably the two adults will also understand the painstaking efforts of the young master."
A painstaking effort? !
Man Chen caressed the Panlong Ring on his left hand and laughed silently, "Tell them, I don't want to see Kangle weaken in my lifetime, and I don't even want to see the day when Changyuan Kingdom captures it!"
Li Fu's heart tightened, and he silently nodded, "Yes, I understand!"
Man Chen smiled sideways, "What do you understand? You understand that I owe him, I owe them? Haha...but, it's not just these—that man wants to conquer the world, but I just don't let him do it , I just don’t want him to get what he wants! Haha!”
He laughed so wildly and so desolately, a sense of sadness slowly spread from his chest to his limbs and bones, and finally gathered in his eyes, the tears were so bitter that no one with strong restraint could swallow them.
"My lord..." Li Fu lowered his head uncomfortably looking at the spreading dust like this.
Man Chen stopped laughing, and the clearer his eyes became, the more condensed he became, "What he wants, I want him not to get. What he owes me, I will ask him to pay it back sooner or later!"
In the middle of the night, I came back from looking for food in the small building and saw the grapes left on the table. I knew that it was left by Man Chen. I swept it away without any politeness, and then nestled on the carpet next to Man Chen's bed and went to sleep comfortably. .
The next day, when Man Chen got up early to make up, Xiao Lou was still in bed, with his round head resting on a pair of front paws, with a ring of purple juice hanging from the corner of his mouth, sleeping very soundly.
Bixue's hand combing Man Chen's hair gave a slight pause, Man Chen saw the expression on her face through the silver mirror, just smiled and pushed Bi Xue's hand away, picked up a green jade hairpin and casually rolled up her long hair and said , "It couldn't be simpler!"
Bixue paused, and Wencai covered her mouth and smiled, "Master, this appearance is exactly the same as when the maidservant first met him!"
Man Chen looked at himself in the mirror, how could it be the same.When I first met him, he was only 16 years old, his hair was full of black hair like splashed ink, now it is seven years in the blink of an eye, he is 23 years old, but he has already grown hair, hidden in the black hair, how not glaring!
Man Chen faintly smiled and said, "Yeah, ever since entering the palace and becoming a queen or empress dowager... it's rarely been so leisurely!"
Bixue looked at his hair, and finally couldn't laugh anymore after a while, she said hesitantly, "Why don't I find some black hair cream, my master is only 23 years old..."
Man Chen shook his head, and said with a bit of desolation in his voice, "What kind of black hair cream do you take, even if you still have black hair as before, who do you want to see?"
Bixue was finally sad.
Man Chen flicked his sleeves, got up and said, "Let Xiaolou continue to sleep, you go out for a walk with me!"
Bi Xue hurriedly nodded and said, "Young Master!"
Man Chen turned around and tapped on her forehead, "You must call me Your Highness in front of others, otherwise if people listen to it, they will say that you have no rules!"
Bixue stuck out her tongue and said, "In my heart, a young master is a young master, even if the status of the young master changes, the young master is still Bi Xue's young master!"
Man Chen shook his head and said with a smile, "You girl, what tongue twister did you say? Just remember it in front of people, and you can call it whatever you want in queen!"
Bixue smiled and said, "Yes, my lord!"
Walking slowly along the bluestone road in the garden, Man Chen is not completely aimless. Before leaving the palace, he still wants to go to Linchi Palace to meet his mother and concubine. Even if she doesn't want to let him go, she is still his after all. Birth mother!
"Hey, be careful, my lord!" A feather shuttlecock flew over from the side suddenly, Bixue hurriedly stretched out her hand to block the shuttlecock.
"Hey, give us back the shuttlecock!" In the open space of the corridor, several young court ladies were waving their hands to this side, and a girl in palace costume surrounded by the palace maids was also blinking her eyes at this side.
Holding the shuttlecock in her hand, Bi Xue pinched her waist and said, "Hey, hey, your shuttlecock almost kicked our young master. You have to apologize to our young master before I can pay you back!"
Seeing a few court ladies like Bixue, she was not to be outdone and said, "Young master, I've never heard of it. A bold and lowly maidservant, she dared to keep the princess's shuttlecock even if she saw her being rude!"
Bi Xue replied, "I don't care about the princess, anyway, if you don't apologize to our son, don't expect me to return the shuttlecock to you!"
"You..." Apparently, the little maids had never seen such an arrogant maidservant, their faces turned blue with anger, Bixue didn't care about it, anyway, in her eyes, even Emperor Changyuan might not be comparable to Man Chen finger.
"Bi Xue!" Man Chen stretched out his hand to stop her, took the shuttlecock from her hand with his right hand and said softly, "Don't be rude!"
After saying that, Man Chen personally took the shuttlecock and went to the maid who was standing there blankly, and handed the shuttlecock to her, and said with a gentle smile, "Your servant is ignorant, so please don't blame my sister!"
"Brother Six!" The girl in palace costume didn't care about picking up the shuttlecock, and suddenly threw herself into Man Chen's arms and cried out.
Bixue, who was originally arrogant and domineering, and a group of young maids were all dumbfounded when they saw this scene, and couldn't help but look at each other.
Man Chen was also a little surprised, but still stopped her waist and smiled lightly, "We haven't seen each other for seven years, and Seventh Sister has grown up too!"
Who is the slim girl in front of her, the charming Seventh Princess Helian Qingchen?
"Brother Six!" Helian Qingchen grabbed his lapel tightly and cried, "Second Brother said you would never come back again. Qingchen really thought he would never see you again. Sixth Brother, Sixth Brother elder brother……"
Man Chen smiled helplessly, "I'm sorry, I made you worry. I always thought that Seventh Sister wouldn't want to see me the most!"
It was only then that Helian Qingchen's mood eased a little. Hearing this, he said with red eyes, "Sixth Brother, Second Brother explained to me what happened back then. Qingchen was ignorant when he was young, so I hope that Sixth Brother will not care about Qingchen." !"
Man Chen reached out and rubbed the top of her hair, and smiled softly, "Well, I don't blame you. If I were you, I might be like you!"
"Brother Six!" Helian Qingchen burst into laughter, threw himself into his arms and said, "Brother Six, it's great that you can come back. Qingchen is so happy to see Brother Six again. I haven't been able to tell you back then... In fact, Qingchen has always liked Sixth Brother!"
