The two stood up from the ground, patted their clothes, and walked to the table. There were two dishes, one soup, and two bowls of rice on the table. The aroma of the dishes wafted through the room. Zhuge Mingkong quickly sat on the stool and picked up the food.

He picked up the fish with chopsticks and tasted it.

The taste is the best she has ever tasted, tender and smooth, without any fishy smell, and the fragrance of osmanthus is integrated into it. Such superb cooking skills are indeed better than the imperial chef.

"Rong Yu, can you give me this Yue Lao?" Zhuge Mingkong looked at Rong Yu sitting next to him and asked.

"no."

"Why?"

"Yue Lao has been with me for many years, and I have always eaten his food. If I gave it to you, I wouldn't be able to get used to it. Since you promised to come with me every day, you can eat Yue Lao's food when you get here.

By the way, I forgot to tell you that Yue Lao also has a specialty fish leaping over the dragon's gate. It tastes a bit better than this hibiscus and mandarin fish." Rong Yu gracefully took a piece of fish, picked out the fish bones, and then

Put it into Zhuge Ming's empty bowl.

Zhuge Mingkong looked at his actions with some surprise. She ate the fish Rong Yu put for her, and looked at Rong Yu from the corner of her eyes. He was still picking out the fish bones at this time, and after he was done, he put it into her bowl again. His

The movements were extremely smooth, as if he had done this action thousands of times.

"Fu Meng must also like to eat fish! You often pick fish bones for her like this." Zhuge Mingkong supported his chin with his left hand, looked at Rong Yu, and asked with a smile.

The movements of Rong Yu's hands have not stopped, and there is a gentleness in his eyes that is different from his usual gentleness. If his usual gentleness is compared to the unique moist light of white jade, then in his eyes now,

It's as if the white jade has melted, and it's extremely gentle.

"Yes, she likes it very much. The dishes made by Yue Lao are what she likes the most. In order to eat Yue Lao's dishes, she often goes to see me regardless of her life or dreams. Her temperament is very similar to yours, she is so casual and carefree.

people."

Rong Yu put the picked thorns into her bowl, and Zhuge Mingkong looked at him quietly. At this moment, her heart hurt for some reason.

This feeling was extremely unfamiliar, as if someone had robbed her.

She quickly calmed down the strange feeling in her heart and continued to eat. Rong Yu also continued to pick fish bones for her, and occasionally took a few bites himself.

"It's decided, I will come here every day for Yue Lao's food." Zhuge Mingkong continued to eat, with a look of satisfaction on his face. It must be said that Yue Lao's cooking skills can be described as the best. Just these two dishes.

Just one soup made Zhuge Mingkong a little addicted, so she decided to come here often in the future.

After dinner, the two played another game of chess. It had been a while since they had faced each other again, and they still won in a draw. Occasionally, someone would win more than once, but the next time it would be a draw.

The sunshine in the afternoon was very good. When Zhuge Mingkong and Rong Yu arrived at the Imperial Study Room, the sunlight happened to shine on the plaque on the Imperial Study Room. The large golden characters were dazzling under the sunlight, and had an indescribable splendor.

In the imperial study room, Ye Tianqian, Gongzi Li and Ye Jingxuan were kneeling on the ground. The old emperor was sitting on the throne with an angry face. Rong Hai was waiting next to the old emperor. There were two people standing next to him. One was Ye

Tianlin, another man dressed in black, has a sharp edge like a sword unsheathed from all over his body. His face is extremely handsome, his cold and proud profile has an indescribable iron blood, and his expression is extremely cold.

"Uncle Emperor, I'm here."

"Rong Yu has met the emperor."

The sudden arrival of the two of them made the old emperor stunned for a moment, and when he heard Zhuge Mingkong's voice, Ye Tianqian seemed to be stunned.

"Girl Ming, Prince Anling, why are you here now?" The old emperor looked at the two of them and his words were extremely indifferent.

"Uncle Emperor, I came back yesterday and prepared to pay my respects to you today, but I met Sister Rouze who was taken to prison by the guards. I am here to intercede for her." Zhuge Mingkong looked at the old emperor and paused. , said: "Uncle Emperor, I know everything about it, but Sister Rouze is your and Concubine Bai's only child. You can't let Concubine Bai die in peace!"

"That rebellious girl actually colluded with the Futian Sect to give me that kind of medicine. How could I spare her?" The old emperor was not moved by the dead Concubine Bai at all. His shrewd eyes were full of murderous intent. This is the sorrow of a child of the royal family. , because if they do something wrong to their father, then they will not face their father, but the monarch of the country.

"Uncle Emperor, Sister Rouze is only sixteen years old. She is still young and her mind must be unstable. She may have been bewitched by the Futian Cult, so she did such a wrong thing. People are not saints, how can they be without fault? If Rouze Sister Ze can change her ways, she can definitely make a comeback, and her future will be full of glory, but if you stab her to death, then Sister Rouze will really be gone in this life. She is your daughter , can you really bear to have such beautiful years disappear like this? She is only sixteen years old, she has not seen all the beauty of life, and she has not fully realized the happiness of living. Uncle Emperor, can you really bear to do this? ?" Zhuge Mingkong said very seriously that if Rouze was convicted because of her, she would try her best to intercede for her.

At this time, a hint of unbearability flashed in the old emperor's eyes. Zhuge Mingkong immediately caught it and knew that his words just now had made the old emperor feel compassionate. If this continued, Rouze might really be exempted from the death penalty.

"Sister Rouze has always followed the rules and behaved herself. This is obvious to everyone. This mistake must be due to her own confusion. Uncle Emperor, you can punish her, but it does not necessarily have to kill her. .Furthermore, if you order the execution of the princess, the people will be confused and guess that if she is used by someone with ulterior motives again, the people will be unsettled. Uncle Emperor, please think twice and let sister Rouze live."

"What you said makes sense, but Rouze is so wrong this time." The old emperor no longer had murderous intent in his eyes, but he still did not agree to let Rouze go.

At this time, Rong Yu, who had been silent, raised the scroll with his beautiful fingers and said: "Your Majesty, this is a painting by a friend of mine. I would like to show it to the Emperor to help relieve the Emperor's difficulties at this time."

"Okay, just open it!" The old emperor nodded and agreed.

"Accept the decree." Rong Yu looked at Zhuge Mingkong, put the scroll of the painting into Zhuge Mingkong's hand, and said: "Take it."

The two opened the painting, and the contents of the painting were clearly reflected in everyone's eyes. The meaning of the painting was extremely obvious, and the light in the old emperor's eyes dimmed, and more unbearability emerged inside.

"Your Majesty, there is a saying that 'tiger poison cannot eat its children'. Princess Rouze made a mistake, but her mistake will not lead to death. She is the emperor's daughter and a descendant of the emperor. If she is really executed like this, as Zhuge Mingkong said, the people will definitely be in chaos. There are speculations and discussions, and this must have a bad impact on the emperor. In the hearts of the people, the emperor is the one who can kill his son. If this continues, the consequences may be more serious. In the past few years, wars and natural disasters have continued. If another emperor is killed Son, the people’s hearts will surely be in turmoil.”

Rong Yu's words were direct and extremely bold. An ordinary minister would never dare to speak like this to the emperor. But he was Rong Yu, the emperor's personal surname, and he was also the most talented person in the Northern Zhou Dynasty and even in the world.

He said this

He is not afraid of what the emperor will do to him. It is not because he is a prince and has made great military exploits for the Northern Zhou Dynasty, but because everyone in the world likes Rong Yu. It is impossible for the emperor to kill someone who is liked by everyone in the world to make the world talk about it.

he.

Moreover, Rong Yu is a talented person, and having him in the court will definitely make the Northern Zhou Dynasty more prosperous.

"Your Majesty, Rong Yu said this, please think twice." He rolled up the scroll gracefully, and his beautiful face and brilliant eyes showed a noble and graceful look that no one could compare with. His five jade-like fingers

Attached to the scroll, it seems to blend with the color of the white paper, and has an indescribable beauty.

"Then how does King Anling think I should punish Rouze? How should I punish the prince, prime minister and the seventh prince?" The old emperor looked at Rong Yu and asked.

"In accordance with my opinion, Princess Rouze is demoted to a commoner and removed from the royal family. As for the prince, prime minister, and seventh prince, I don't know what they did wrong?" Rong Yu asked the emperor with a trace of doubt in his gentle voice, and his

His doubts were revealed in his eyes and expression.

At this time, the old emperor was full of doubts. He looked at Rong Yu and said, "Isn't what happened wrong?"

"Your Majesty, it is normal for a man to love a woman. It would be a bit unfair to punish the Crown Prince, Prime Minister and the Seventh Prince because of this. Besides, they have been together for a few days. If they don't like it, even the medicinal properties will affect it.

Notice it. Moreover, now that it’s done, Your Majesty, please grant me the marriage!”

Rong Yu's words made the old emperor silent for a moment. Then he looked at the three people kneeling on the ground, and his voice was full of majesty: "This matter has passed like this. The daughter of the left prime minister, gentle, dignified, and generous, is married now."

The prince is the concubine. Princess Xueqing, Pingting is elegant and elegant, Huizhi Lanxin is married to the seventh prince and is the concubine. The eldest princess Huiwen is naturally beautiful, gentle and virtuous, and is married to the right prime minister as his wife. You each decide a good day and choose a day to get married.

.”

"My son, I accept the decree."

"I accept the decree."

At this time, there was something strange in the old emperor's eyes, and then he spoke again: "The right prime minister's sister, a peerless beauty, Ena Pianqing, is now named An's concubine. As for Rouze, she will be demoted to a commoner and will never join the royal family again.

.”

"Father is wise!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

After the voice fell, the tenth prince Ye Tianlin suddenly spoke: "I would like to inform my father, you have not been to court for many days, and your brother and right minister have not appeared in the court either. You need to think of a better excuse for this. Otherwise,

It damages the royal family’s face.”

"Indeed!" The old emperor nodded and fell into deep thought. It was really difficult to find such a reason.
