Chapter 550 Adding fuel to the fire
In the room
Lin Junxue gently pulled Xie Yu's sleeve and spoke softly.
"Your Majesty, no matter what, we still have to consider our mother's feelings. Otherwise, let Gao Cheng take your token and go to Jingzhao Prefecture. If this person is really as lawless and reckless as the rumors say, and dares to rely on his power to do whatever he wants under the feet of the emperor and ruin our mother's reputation, he must be severely punished! We must not let such a lawless person off easily!"
Xie Yu thought about it, thinking that today he was going out of the palace to enjoy the mountains and rivers, and he couldn't let such a thing let him and Jun'er down.
waved his hand
He paused for a second
Xie Yu threw the token on his waist to Gao Cheng, who quickly took it.
"Go, take your men and personally deliver this shameless fellow to the Jingzhao prefect, and convey my order. No matter who is backing An Ling, he must be investigated thoroughly and handled impartially without any favoritism. If there is even the slightest favoritism, he will no longer be able to hold the position of Jingzhao prefect."
Gao Cheng took the order, took Xie Yu's token, and went to do the work.
Tianzi Room
Xie Yu's original mood was disturbed by An Ling's matter.
After Gao Cheng left, he had a sullen expression and tightly pursed lips, and it was obvious that he was in a bad mood.
When Xie Yu left the palace, he encountered people from the empress dowager's mother's family who took advantage of their power to bully others.
This is a blatant slap in the face of the emperor...
In addition, An Qianning had just had this incident two days ago and was sentenced to death.
Today, An Ling's actions were like adding fuel to the fire.
Lin Junxue gave Danzhen a look and Danzhen retreated.
She poured the tea herself
"Your Majesty, are you in a bad mood because of An Ling's matter?"
Xie Yu nodded
"Jun'er, sometimes I wonder if I haven't been good enough to my mother and her family? For the sake of my mother and the An family, I have given the An family great benefits. Even those incompetent and mediocre people, I have taken extra care of them, but what have I got in return? Over the years, the An family has been restless, and I have been tolerant of them. However, the An family has despised God's grace, which really disappoints me..."
Lin Junxue sighed lightly and placed her hand on the back of Xie Yu's hand.
Gently lower your eyes
As soon as he opened his mouth, his voice was like the spring water in the mountain stream, which made people calm down.
"Your Majesty, over the years, your favor to the An family is well-known to everyone in the court. This kindness and favor has made the An family extremely popular in the court. Everyone can see that during every festival, the rewards you give to the An family are always the most generous. Now, the An family has become very important in the court and has become the object of many officials' scramble to get close to them. The An family has indeed failed your trust, but you must not vent your anger on your mother. The people of the An family are relying on your favor to do so. I think your mother, who lives in the palace, must not know about it."
Xie Yu looked at Lin Junxue deeply, his eyes full of relief.
Even though Jun'er knew that her mother had never been sincere to her and had always been finding fault with her, Jun'er always repaid evil with kindness.
Even though she could take advantage of this matter, Jun'er still spoke for her mother. She was really too soft-hearted and kind.
The An family dared to act like this because they relied on the Queen Mother. Even if the Queen Mother lived deep in the palace, how could she not know anything?
The Queen Mother has only been indulging the An family.
If the Queen Mother could impose more restrictions, how would the people in the An family dare to do this?
Lin Junxue lowered her eyes and continued to speak
"Your Majesty, since this matter has been handed over to the Jingzhao prefect, I think there will be a result in a few days. Your Majesty, don't worry."
Xie Yu felt much more relieved after hearing Lin Junxue's words, and held her hand in his backhand.
The touch under my palm is soft and smooth. If I get a little closer, I can smell her subtle fragrance, which is very pleasant.
"Jun'er, every time I talk to you, I feel a moment of peace and comfort. In this world, everyone will plot against me, but you won't. You always think of me. After all, you are different from others."
Lin Junxue lowered her head slightly, leaving only the snow-white
"Your Majesty, I am different from other women. My beauty is unparalleled in the world, so I am naturally different. My heart has long been given to you. If you say that I have any calculations, your words really hurt my heart. However, for so many years, I have indeed been calculating one thing."
When Lin Junxue said this, a blush flashed across her snow-white face, and she tilted her head
But she didn't say any more, which whetted Xie Yu's appetite.
He asked, "Oh, Jun'er, what did you plot against me?"
Lin Junxue raised the corners of her lips slightly, revealing a faint smile, but this smile did not fully reach her eyes.
In the depths of those eyes as deep as a pool of water, there is a trace of imperceptible sadness that cannot be obtained, which makes people want to pursue and explore
Lin Junxue's sadness swayed faintly but stubbornly?
However, it is this looming fragility and sadness.
On the contrary, it added to her unique charm, making Xie Yu feel pity for her.
Lin Junxue hesitated for a long time before speaking
"Your Majesty, the only thing I want to take advantage of in my life is your love."
Xie Yu was stunned, looking at Lin Junxue's eyes that were filled with only him.
Perhaps, he had already given this love without realizing it, but he just didn't want to admit it.
But he felt that, for some reason, there was still something missing.
Seeing Xie Yu remained silent, Lin Junxue smiled.
"Okay, Your Majesty, I was just joking with you."
Seeing that she changed the subject herself, Xie Yu was even more satisfied with her tactfulness and understanding.
"Jun'er, I will not let you down and will definitely treat you well"
Lin Junxue listened to Xie Yu's casual promise and sneered in her heart.
She knew these men's tricks too well. When they wanted to coax a woman, they would say all kinds of sweet words and vows of love.
However, how many of these promises are truly from the heart?
I'm afraid that most of the time, they just say it casually, just to temporarily appease the woman's heart.
Lin Junxue knew this very well, but she did not expose Xie Yu's lie.
After all, she was just listening to this insincere promise.
Anyway, she was just calculating the same thing.
evening
Xie Yu and Lin Junxue returned to the palace
Xie Yu wanted to take the opportunity to stay, but Lin Junxue still made the excuse of being unwell and watched Xie Yu leave?
Today, Xie Yu coaxed her, and at night, she let him get his wish and stay overnight in Zhonghe Palace. It was really too easy.
If you can't get what you want, you will miss it every day.
Men, what you can’t get is always the best, and what you get easily will be discarded casually.
Hall
Danzhen comes in with some midnight snacks
"My lady, please try the sesame dumplings made in the kitchen."
Guyu brought another bowl of cold fruit
Summer is coming, and Lin Junxue likes this cold fruit the most.
