After the general is bound to the demon concubine system

The envoys of the Eastern Japan will stay in the capital for three days. When Li Sijiu went to Concubine Ying's place the next day, he saw that all the concubines were very happy and gathered together to chat about yesterday's banquet.

Li Sijiu could understand why they were happy. The concubines stayed in the harem all year round. The most exciting entertainment on weekdays was to go to the imperial garden to see the flowers and the lake. The concubines could also follow this kind of banquet occasionally. Show your face in the front court, and if you are lucky, you can see your family from afar.

But unlike the excitement of the concubines, Li Sijiu felt tormented instead. At the banquet, he had to sit upright all the time, and he was embarrassed to eat too much in front of so many people. After returning to the palace, his back hurt and his stomach hurt. Hungry is simply torture.

After the greetings were over, Li Sijiu stood up and walked out with the others, but suddenly heard Concubine Ying's voice behind him: "Young Master Li, stay a step."

Li Sijiu's heart skipped a beat.

To Li Sijiu, Concubine Ying was the head teacher in school, and Concubine Ying was the student who was always left behind to give lectures alone because she was disobedient in class... But he is obviously very honest recently, why did Concubine Ying put he stayed?

It just so happened that Huang Zhaoyi passed by him, burst out laughing, and grimaced at Li Sijiu gleefully.

hey kid!

After all the concubines left, Concubine Ying and Li Sijiu were left in the hall, Li Sijiu smiled bitterly and said, "Madam, what's the point of asking the minister to stay?"

Concubine Ying covered her lips with a handkerchief and coughed a few times, and said after she recovered, "Young Master Li, do you know that the harem is not allowed to meddle in politics? A few days ago, why did you go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation?"

Li Sijiu said without batting an eye: "I'm not involved in politics, but the emperor likes the fruit juice made by me. It happened that King Jing came, so I asked me to send it over to taste."

This was what Yu Xiujin had told Li Sijiu earlier in the morning. He told Li Sijiu that if the Queen Mother or Concubine Ying asked about it, he would let Li Sijiu answer like this.

Concubine Ying's expression slowed down a bit: "So it was the emperor's request?"

She shook her head again and said: "Even if the emperor asked... Mr. Li should keep a distance from the previous court."

Li Sijiu nodded his head, as he agreed, but if the emperor insisted on telling him to go there, there was nothing he could do.

Concubine Ying paused for a moment, then said: "Young Master Li, there is one more thing."

"what?"

Concubine Ying got up together today, and heard that there were many references to Li Sijiu in the previous dynasty. She thought about it, maybe Li Sijiu's appearance of propping his cheeks was too irregular, which made the courtiers unhappy.As a concubine, it is also her duty to help the emperor manage the harem. She said to Li Sijiu: "Mr. Li must be more considerate of the emperor. Today, many ministers have handed over the papers to the emperor, saying that Mr. Li was in the East Japan yesterday. At the envoy's welcome banquet, his cheeks were propped up, and his attitude seemed disrespectful, Mr. Li should be more kind..."

Friendly?Just laugh more?Li Sijiu was as good as others: "I know."

At the dinner that night, the concubines attended again. Li Sijiu kept in mind Concubine Ying's teachings and tried to make himself appear to be participating and enjoying it. On the contrary, those who looked at him would all smile friendly...

Sitting at the top, Yu Xiujin always felt that the atmosphere below was not right, looked around with his eyes, and finally found out where the problem was.

It turned out that Li Sijiu was holding the wine glass, looking at the courtiers below with a half-smile, raising his glass to the courtiers from time to time.

That gaze seemed to be a deep cave, filled with dangers, and everyone who came into contact with Li Sijiu's gaze suddenly froze and looked away in a panic.

So the next day, there were more documents for the crusade against Li Sijiu.

After Concubine Ying heard about this, recalling Li Sijiu's behavior yesterday, she thought that Li Sijiu's attitude was too bold, which made the officials angry, so she left Li Sijiu alone and read aloud, telling him not to act casually. Laugh again.

It's not okay to be in a daze, and it's not okay to laugh.

Li Sijiu felt wronged.

During the dinner on the third day, Li Sijiu almost didn't know where to put his hands and feet. It was disrespectful to be in a daze, and it was too bold to laugh. He simply kept his head down to prevent others from seeing his face.

But he didn't know that in the eyes of the ministers, he became more gloomy and more uncertain.

Concubine Ying was very satisfied with Li Sijiu's behavior and gave him a few approving glances, but she didn't expect that the next day, she heard that many ministers were participating in Li Sijiu's behavior.She was at a loss and said to Li Sijiu, who was also at a loss: "Fortunately, Dongwo only came for three days, and if there is one more day, I don't know what to do."

Li Sijiu nodded vigorously, deeply agreeing.

Coming out of Concubine Ying's palace, Li Sijiu saw a light green figure standing beside the old cypress tree on the side, it was Xue Zhaoyi.

Seeing Li Sijiu coming out, Xue Zhaoyi nodded and smiled at him, Li Sijiu was a little strange: "Is Xue Zhaoyi waiting for the minister? Is there anything I can do to find the minister?"

Xue Zhaoyi shook her head and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I just stand here to get some air... Mr. Li is going back to Jintu Palace, right? Why don't we go back together."

Li Sijiu never sat on a walking chariot. Firstly, he was not used to being carried by others. Second, this kind of walking was not a problem for him at all. It was just a matter of exercising his body. His legs were long and his steps were big, but Xue Zhaoyi could also Being able to keep up with him, the two of them walked all the way to the residence, chatting with each other; Xue Zhaoyi had seen every inch of land north and south, and he opened his mouth to tell anecdotes. Li Sijiu listened, sometimes amazed and sometimes laughed, and the atmosphere was very harmony.

While chatting happily, Xue Zhaoyi suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Li Sijiu walked a few steps before realizing that Xue Zhaoyi hadn't followed, turned around and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

The expression on Xue Zhaoyi's face seemed to be smiling or sighing, she said: "Actually, I have always envied Mr. Li."

Li Sijiu wondered: "Envy? How do you say that?"

Xue Zhaoyi said: "Even if I envy Mr. Li, even if I don't do anything, others will take Mr. Li seriously and regard Mr. Li as a strong enemy."

During the three days that the envoys from Dongwa came, Yu Xiujin wanted to entertain them, but he never came. When they left for Dongwa, Yu Xiujin finally came to Jintu Palace.

Yu Xiujin was obviously happy because the Dongwa incident was going well, with a slight smile on his face, Li Sijiu asked: "The emperor is in a good mood?"

Yu Xiujin said: "In this way, we will have more time to formulate an alliance plan, and I am naturally happy."

Li Sijiu thought of Concubine Ying saying that many ministers in the court were dissatisfied with her performance at the banquet, and felt that she should speak for herself when Yu Xiujin was in a good mood, so she moved to Yu Xiujin's side: " emperor……"

Yu Xiujin asked: "What?"

Li Sijiu stretched out his hand to pat Yu Xiujin's neckline, and said tentatively: "Your Majesty, I heard that the expression on my face at the banquet seems to have aroused the dissatisfaction of many adults in the court."

When this matter was mentioned, Yu Xiujin felt nothing but helplessness and absurdity.Most of the references to Li Sijiu handed over by those ministers were speculations. Even if Li Sijiu really had a different intention, could "scary expression" be considered as real evidence?Knowing that the ministers were actually just venting their dissatisfaction with Li Sijiu's attitude, he didn't take this matter to heart, so he suppressed all the papers.

He just wanted to tell Li Sijiu that it was okay, but he heard Li Sijiu say: "I swear, I just look a little fiercer, and my eyes are a little fiercer. I definitely don't mean to make adults unhappy, and I have absolutely no attitude. good."

In order to prove himself, Li Sijiu came up with a plan: "By the way, if the emperor doesn't believe it, you can look into my eyes and guess what I'm thinking."

Yu Xiujin didn't believe it, but felt that Li Sijiu's words seemed amusing, so he nodded in agreement and said, "Okay."

The two came to the table and sat down facing each other, Li Sijiu said: "Your Majesty forgive me, I want to see you."

Yu Xiujin said: "Okay."

Hearing Yu Xiujin's agreement, Li Sijiu raised his eyes and looked straight into Yu Xiujin's eyes.

The two looked at each other silently. Li Sijiu knew that his eyes were slender, but he was afraid that Yu Xiujin could not see clearly, so he tried to open them wider, but Yu Xiujin seemed to be a little embarrassed. He suddenly looked back.

Li Sijiu saw the end of the gaze, and asked: "Just now, what I thought in my heart was 'the emperor's eyes are really beautiful', does the emperor feel that the eyes of the minister are fierce?"

Yu Xiujin paused for a while before saying: "...not bad."

He stood up abruptly and walked towards the door: "Chang Shunhai, I want some tea!"

Chang Shunhai was obviously taken aback by the voice: "Your Majesty, why did you come out suddenly? Oh, drink tea, drink tea, this servant will arrange it now."

Li Sijiu looked at Yu Xiujin's back, and let out a long "Oh—" in his mind.

System: [What's wrong?Suddenly, weird, what? 】

Li Sijiu said with emotion: [The little emperor really likes me. 】

The system only felt a small question mark slowly rising in its heart, and it asked: [Why, suddenly, so, say?Blame, blame self-confidence, yes. 】

Li Sijiu said: [I suddenly remembered a saying that was widely circulated in school when I was in junior high school. 】

The system asked curiously: [What, what? 】

Li Sijiu said: 【If both of them are very calm when they look at each other, it proves that there is no spark between them; but if one of them is interested in the other, then the person who likes the other will take the lead to look away. 】

He said: 【Look, just now the little emperor looked away first. 】

[But, but...] The system didn't want to break Li Sijiu's self-confidence, but couldn't hold back and said frankly: [But, your eyes just now, yes, really, fierce, very scary...]

The system turned into a detective in an instant, and analyzed it to Li Sijiu in a straight-forward manner: [Otherwise, why, little emperor, are you so slow in speaking?And suddenly, with your back to you, go ask for tea, drink?Obviously, I was frightened by you, but, again, I was worried about saving face... I'm sorry to show it in front of you...]

Li Sijiu: ...

Angry, but convinced.
