The day when you and your majesty forced each other

=================

But Zhao Chengyu asked, and he was also willing to tease the little emperor: "If you talk about it seriously, I really have a wish."

"Let's hear it, if you serve me well, maybe I will agree."

Hearing what Zhao Chengyu said, Lou Yan suddenly laughed out loud - because His Majesty was so accidental and naive.

His Majesty suspected that his imperial authority was being questioned, he frowned and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Lou Yan said mysteriously: "Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness, but I like to take it by myself."

Zhao Chengyu was impatient with others playing riddles with himself, rolled his eyes and scoffed, he randomly fiddled with the case file in front of him twice, suddenly saw the word "draft" sharply, Zhao Chengyu picked up the book and looked at it for a while, Lou was tired I thought he would say something, but His Majesty looked at it for a while and said nothing, then casually threw the file into the pile of books on the table.

His Majesty didn't say anything about his marriage, instead he questioned Lou Yan from the corner of his eyes: "Lord Lou has also reached the age of marriage, I haven't cared about Lord Lou yet, is there a marriage?"

Lou Yan replied in a warm voice: "Never married."

Zhao Chengyu became happy, and asked him again: "Then... is there someone you like?"

"The one you like...heh...seriously speaking...there is a person that I probably want."

Zhao Chengyu's dominance and narrow-mindedness are all due to nature, even if he doesn't like Lou Yan, he doesn't want Lou Yan to remember others.Only His Majesty snorted coldly, and threatened meanly: "Even if there is someone you like, Mr. Lou, you'd better hide it, don't let me find out, and you'd better not get married before I despise you, otherwise, what do you want to do with you?" Those who want it will probably end badly.”

Threatened by His Majesty with his fangs shining.

Lou Yan smiled lightly, and tolerated Zhao Chengyu's bitterness in a rare way, and the corners of his cold eyes softened in a rare way: "Then please your majesty to dislike this minister later, otherwise, this minister will definitely ask for the 'sweetheart'."

His Majesty's expression became even colder - Lou Yan mentioned the sweetheart who displeased Zhao Chengyu again.

His Majesty tugged on Lou Yan's collar to make him bow his head: "Don't mention your sweetheart again, you are my man now, and my things, even if they are broken, you can't miss others, understand?" With such a lovely face, it is not offensive to say such domineering words.On the contrary, Lou Yan enjoys it very much, he loves Zhao Chengyu's desire to monopolize him so much, he leans down according to Zhao Chengyu's strength, and whispers close to his little majesty's ear: "If your majesty is willing, I will naturally be unable to escape... your majesty Is the headache relieved?"

"Well, press it again."

Xiao Linzi heard it clearly from outside the door. While worrying that he knew too much and being silenced by his majesty, he also felt sorry for the little majesty who had betrayed his relatives.

He has followed Zhao Chengyu since childhood, and he knows exactly what Zhao Chengyu looks like.He felt that once Gu Xiang left, his majesty would lose all scruples. If he became unscrupulous, let alone Chang'an City, Daliang would be wiped out immediately, and his majesty would not even blink his eyes.

Others don't know that he has been serving Zhao Chengyu for so many years, but it is clear that Zhao Chengyu is diligent on the surface, but in reality?In his bones, he is an out-and-out tyrant. In the past, he implemented benevolent government and worked hard to rule the country just to please his relatives.

Xiao Linzi sighed, and didn't know what good love and love are, it can make people lose their minds and don't care about anything.

There is still chatter in the room:

His Majesty had a whim, and said, "Lou Yan, why don't you move to the palace? You're nestled in such a corner, and I have to go around a long way to find you."

"Your Majesty, do you feel that there are not enough gossips about this humble minister?"

Zhao Chengyu just ran to Taichang Temple and sent others to stay in the same room with him. It is common for senior officials in Chang'an City to behave extravagantly, and it is not uncommon for them to act absurdly.Although Lou Yan looks cold and boring, it makes people have no desire to attack, but it is not enough for Zhao Chengyu to be blatant - who knows if His Majesty likes this one?

Originally, Zhao Chengyu always kept Gu Changan in the palace. Although there were some bad words, they still had the status of master and apprentice. Even if there were rumors, it would not be too much. Being favored by the emperor to live in the palace, what kind of identity is he, can everyone not see clearly?

Zhao Chengyu's tone was playful: "I thought...Master Lou didn't care about these things."

"I really don't care much about it, but I'm afraid that His Majesty is just joking, after all... Gu Xiang hasn't left Chang'an yet, has he?"

After finally saying a few words, Lou Yan wanted to mention Gu Chang'an again.Zhao Chengyu turned cold.

"Don't you dare to speak nonsense again!" He kicked the building open, and he knocked down the mountain of files on the table, and the books and papers fell all over the building.

"It's not a good thing to be too smart. You mentioned the teacher again and again. I have tolerated you for a long time. If you commit another crime, you don't have to be a seventh-rank official. You can go to northern Xinjiang to accompany your uncles."

The last time there was a similar threat was the night before, the little majesty said with a half-smile, "The service is not good, so I will eunuch you, and you justifiably enter the palace to serve me." Lou Yan even laughed a little when thinking of this sentence.

His Majesty flung his sleeves with a livid face and left.

When Liu Ying received the letter, Lou Yan knelt on the ground to collect the scattered files, and Xiao Linzi left a message, saying that His Majesty wanted Lou Yan to kneel here and think about it, because no matter what happened, he would not say anything until he knelt down.

"Lou Yan, you...you..." He's 'you' for a long time, but he didn't 'you' come up with a result.

His Majesty came to Taichang Temple suddenly, and when he came, he looked for Lou Yan. After the two of them had been alone for so long, His Majesty was suddenly furious and didn't say the reason-this is so interesting.

"Are you disrespectful to His Majesty? Let me tell you, it's fine if you were rude to your colleagues in the past, Your Majesty is the emperor! If you offend him, you will implicate our entire government office!" Since Zhao Chengyu didn't say the reason for punishing Lou Yan What is it? It must not be a reason that can be said directly. Liu Ying is an old oil in the officialdom, and she can guess that it is almost inseparable after a few turns.Lou Yan is a hard bone, which offends His Majesty, but maybe it will flourish in the future?Although Liu Ying disdained it, she was afraid that Lou Yan would retaliate against him in the future, so she didn't dare to say anything too much, but instead persuaded Lou Yan to obey the emperor.

Lou Yan looked at the face of Taichang Temple Minister who was afraid of hurting himself and wanted to speculate, and thought it was funny: "Master Liu, the matter of angering the emperor has already been done by the lower officials. If you are really afraid, you might as well resign as soon as possible. "

"You..." Taichang Siqing wanted to say something, but he was so choked by Lou Yan's words that he forgot what he originally wanted to say. Seeing the disdain and sarcasm on Lou Yan's face, he flushed with anger: "I and If you can’t explain it, just do it yourself!”

As soon as Liu Ying left, the other two petty officials came back to work as usual. Lou Yan opened a book and acted as if no one was looking. Keep your head down and do your own thing.

Lou Yan knelt on the ground and flipped a page of the book from time to time. The scene in the room was strange and the atmosphere was oppressive. When it was time to go on duty, Lou Yan supported the table to calm himself up, brushed the dust off his body and limped away.The other two pretended to be case files, and Lou Yan's footsteps were far away before they dared to gossip together.

One of them was younger, with a short, round face and a fat man, approached another middle-aged man with a goatee, and asked mysteriously, "Master Wu, why do you think His Majesty punished the building today?"

The old god with a goatee called 'Master Wu' rubbed his beard and said: "I am familiar with some guards in the palace. I heard that they have seen Lou Zhan go in and out of His Majesty's Weiyang Palace several times at night. .” The goatee lowered his voice, his tone was playful, and the little fat man suddenly realized that he almost called out, “You mean!”

The goatee quickly covered the little fat man's mouth, "You don't want your head anymore?"

The little fat man nodded his head to show that he knew, the goatee let go of his hand, and the little fat man also lowered his voice: "You mean, our Majesty is good... good..." Before Long Yang could say the words, he was covered again Mouth.

"Hush!" The goatee quickly covered the little fat man's mouth, "Don't dare to talk nonsense, you will be beheaded!"

The head is really important, but knowing this kind of sex scandal, the little fat man is really impatient and wants to ask what happened: "Then Lou Zhan, he would rather die than obey to annoy His Majesty?"

Goatee shook his head and said, "I don't know about that. Anyway, seeing His Majesty rushing away angrily today must have caused some discomfort."

Lou Yan deliberately took a long way back home from Xinghua Hutong. Xinghua Hutong is full of high-ranking officials and dignitaries. At the time of its heyday, the Lou family could not live in Xinghua Hutong. Instead, they lived in Ginkgo Hutong just across the wall. After the exile, the house was sealed up, and Lou Yan lived in a more remote Tsing Yi Lane, half an hour's walk from Xinghua Hutong.

Passing by Xinghua Hutong, the lights of Gu's mansion are sparse, and there is no fireworks anymore. Lou Yan looked at the closed gate of Gu's mansion, and remembered that when he was still living in the next alley, he could always see Gu's mansion under the peach blossom tree when passing by. The three masters and apprentices sit facing each other, reading or drinking tea.

Gu Xiang is a literati at heart, even in a filthy officialdom, he is still poetic, he likes to give lectures under the flower trees, Pei Yuan is obedient, Zhao Chengyu is naughty, the three of them together are a beautiful scene.At that time, Lou Yan liked to see these three people very much.

But now, Lou Yan sneered, the flowers withered, the moon waxed and waned, and even the best beauty in the world disappeared. The most difficult thing to grasp in this world is the human heart. People always suspect and hate each other in the end.

Anyway, it's the same in the end, if you don't tear your face off early - what's the use of maintaining a mask of kindness like your majesty?Didn't Gu Changan leave?

Not long after standing there, Lou Yan went to the former Lou Mansion. After the yard was sealed off, no one lived there anymore. The yard was overgrown with weeds, and it had long been abandoned.The sky was getting dark, and in this long-unoccupied yard, there were only a few ugly crows, mixed with the smell of rotten wood, which was so ghostly that it made people feel chills on their backs.

Familiar with the road, Lou Yan found a particularly decayed small yard in the corner, pushed open the crumbling door of the main hall with a "squeak", and took out a yellowed book from the small rotten box on the shelf, opened it and glanced at it again. Close it and tuck it into the sleeve.

The words written in the book do not know where they are, twisted and weird, extremely weird.

——The methods he despises are not completely useless now.

An ancient tribe in southern Xinjiang who is good at using Gu has a saying, which is used to warn people who use Gu. That sentence, Lou Yan's mother said to Lou Yan before she died: You must ask for it, and you must not force it.

Lou Yan thought he wouldn't ask for it, but now he has no way to retreat, and he has gone back to the old road, but...you can't force him, but he wants to force it.If you want to, of course you have to follow your own wishes.

Before closing the door, Lou Yan suddenly said to the air: "Don't laugh at me, I'm different from you, I won't... try to trap his heart with this thing, I just want to be happy now, If he gets entangled until he burns himself and cannot escape, I will die with him... I won't... be as stupid as you."

I don't know who he was speaking to, a rag under the eaves fluttered against the wind a few times, and there were a few shrill crows, Lou Yan raised his lips and slowly closed the door.

"Don't believe me? Just watch it."

After finding what he wanted, Lou Yan walked slowly to his humble home with a book in his mouth.He was the only one living in the house in Tsing Yi Lane. Lou Yan went home and lit a candle, and under the dim candle light, he held that weird book and studied for half the night.

……

The next day at the court meeting, Gu Changan still did not show up. Zhao Chengyu saw the empty space on the lower left in a daze. The old Shangshu who was nearly sixty years old didn’t listen to a word after he said it for a long time. The old Shangshu finished reporting Jinzhou and waited for Zhao Chengyu to speak. Lin Zi pushed Zhao Chengyu calmly, Zhao Chengyu suddenly came back to his senses, and said lightly, I got it, when he glanced over the Ministry of Rites, he didn't see Lou Yan, Zhao Chengyu thought of how many times Lou Yan poked Gu Changan in his heart, and his heart was on fire again , he suddenly asked: "Is anyone asking for leave today?"

Liu Ying's heart trembled, thinking that the most worrying thing had come, and Lou Yan didn't ask for leave, so he had no choice but to stand up and answer: "Return to Your Majesty, Lou Zhan is on leave."

Zhao Chengyu rolled his eyes and snorted coldly and asked, "What's the reason?" Liu Ying was sweating profusely and replied cautiously, "Yes... Lou Zhan is not feeling well."

"He can ask for leave if he is unwell? Then I am also unwell, so can I not go to court casually?" Zhao Chengyu was determined to find it unhappy, and said in a bad tone: "Go back and tell him, as long as he can still crawl , you have to climb to climb up!"
