Nanliang.
"Xin'er, today's sugar pills will be delivered later. At the moment, His Highness is discussing business with Mr. Xu in the imperial study. I don't want anyone to come in and disturb me."
Chu Xin and He Xiang were putting stacks of sugar pills into the food box. Chun Guiren saw them and gave another casual order.
"Master Xu?"
Chu Xin raised her head and looked at Chun Guiren and wondered, who is this Master Xu?
I have been here for so long, but I have never heard that Yuan Heng has any trusted ministers. They are all willing to leave Mr. Xu in the imperial study room to talk. It seems that there should be something different about him.
"Your Majesty has great trust in him. He went to other places in the past few months and only came back half a month ago, so you don't know. After returning, he can help your Majesty handle government affairs. The burden on your Majesty will finally be reduced a lot."
The pure nobleman is finally relieved. As long as Mr. Xu comes back, your Majesty will not have to worry so much and can finally rest and recuperate.
"I see."
Chu Xin understood something. Yuan Heng was so weak that he naturally had to have a trusted minister to help him deal with things.
A young man dressed in rich clothes came out of the royal study. The palace people treated him with great respect.
After Xu Yan finished doing Yuan Heng's rich affairs, he planned to return to the palace. Apart from His Majesty's orders, what else did the affairs in the palace have to do with him?
Walking to a palace road, all the palace people who saw him bowed their heads and said hello. When passing by a palace maid, they vaguely heard him calling her.
"Master Xu, this servant is Jinxiu."
Xu Yan turned his head and looked at her in surprise.
"Sir, please help my noble family!"
The two went to a pavilion in a remote part of the palace, and Jinxiu knelt down, crying with tears streaming down her face.
"What's wrong? You get up first."
Xu Yan raised his eyebrows, as if he had already guessed what he was going to say.
After getting excited, he recounted everything that had happened during this period of time with added detail.
All in all, it was nothing more than talking about how Pure Noble seduced His Majesty and His Majesty left Ning Noble in the cold, and what Xiaoming said was aggrieved and pitiful.
"When you first entered the palace, your noble family never thought of today? Or did you think that as long as you entered the palace, you would definitely be favored by His Majesty?"
Xu Yan's tone was slightly sarcastic. He turned around and looked away, but the fists in his hands were shaking slightly. It was obvious that these things still touched his heart a little.
"My master has become like this now, why do you need to say these words? Master has poured his blood into medicine to show his sincerity, but pure nobles are used to confuse His Majesty, and have completely seduced His Majesty's heart. gone!"
Jinxiu was nervous and aggrieved. She didn't expect that her master's life would end up like this. After what happened last time, His Majesty became completely indifferent to her.
I have tried every method, even using blood as medicine, but now I am afraid there is really no other way.
"Sir, after all, you have had a relationship with my master, so please help my master because of that relationship!"
Jinxiu whispered, this pavilion is a relatively remote place in the palace, and usually no one comes here. Only in this way can we boldly say this.
In fact, he was not completely unsure. Just because Xu Yan was willing to come with him meant that his master probably still had some place in his heart, and he would not be willing to turn a blind eye.
Xu Yan suddenly fell silent. Jinxiu could only see his back and wondered what his expression was.
"There are still knife marks on the noble man's arm, but a large bowl of blood has been shed. Unfortunately, these sincerities are worthless in the eyes of your majesty, and they are no better than those sugar pills made by pure noble men!"
Jinxiu was so angry that she gritted her teeth. She really didn't know what kind of charming magic that pure noble man had used to make His Majesty prefer her so much!
"Sir, the master is really desperate. Do you really have the heart to let her live in such a wronged life in the harem? I can see that the master regrets it sometimes. I never thought that you are the one who treats her best. one!"
Jinxiu thought about Ning Guiren's instructions and said them word for word. Sure enough, she saw Xu Yan's hands trembling slightly, and she felt happy. It seemed that these were indeed useful.
Xu Yan was sitting on the carriage returning home. Thinking of what Jinxiu said, she felt that her heart was starting to get messy.
During this period of time, I forced myself not to pay attention to the affairs of the harem, but I still vaguely heard some rumors.
Especially the rumors about using blood as medicine. When he heard the news, he really couldn't explain what it felt like.
Does Ning Guiren actually want to go so far? Does he have to use this way of hurting himself to fight for favor? Or is it true that people will change after entering the palace? Is the innocent look he once had no longer there?
"How was it? How did he react?"
Ning Guiren asked nervously with a worried face.
Now Xu Yan may be the last life-saving straw for him. If he is not willing to help him anymore, he really doesn't know what to do in the future.
I already knew I was wrong when I helped Chu Xin last time. It was a big mistake. Now that I think about it, I really regret it. But what has been done has been done, so what can be done to make up for it?
Since His Majesty is so indifferent to me, he can only find another way to make up for it in other ways.
"My lord, don't worry. I have already said all those words according to your instructions. I also saw that Mr. Xu seemed to be a little touched. I think this is a good thing. Maybe if you have another chance in the future, he will definitely help you." of!"
Jinxiu consoled him, saying that anyway, he could see clearly at that time. If Mr. Xu didn't have the position of master in his heart, he would not listen to his words at all.
"Yes, I knew he would definitely help me, and I also knew he would still have me in his heart."
Ning Guiren finally relaxed and stretched out his hand to pat his chest. It was hard for him to worry that he had been worried for so long, for fear that Jinxiu would bring back any bad news.
"Jinxiu, do you think my choice back then was wrong?"
Ning Guiren suddenly asked this question inexplicably. This was the first time she had asked such a question, and it was also the first time she had such a feeling.
"This slave doesn't know that the reason why the noble went to the draft was entirely because of his family. What's more, Master Xu couldn't do anything to help me at that time. He was just thinking about his family, so what's wrong with that?"
Jinxiu shook her head. No matter what she said or did, she would naturally stand on her master's side. How could she still stand on the side of an outsider and blame her master?
"I just like His Majesty more and want to stay with His Majesty. I know that I prefer gentle women, so I revealed it intentionally or unintentionally during the draft to let Your Majesty know my gentleness. Then His Majesty selected me."
Ning Guiren sat down and recalled the past, "It was such a happy time when I first entered the palace. Now I want to go back countless times. That was the time when it was just me and His Majesty."
Ning Guiren looked dazed, always wondering why that time passed so quickly. At that time, he felt happy and felt that it would be great if it could go on like this forever.
"His Majesty is weak. Every time I see him coughing, I always feel my heart aching. I wish all these illnesses would happen to me. But why doesn't Your Majesty understand my heart at all? "
Ning Guiren said aggrievedly, it was so aggrieved to have his sincerity betrayed like this.
"My lord, you are really wronged. I think Sir Xu will remember the old feelings and help me."
"Okay, I know everything. I will naturally have something to do when he comes to the palace next time."
Ning Guiren stretched out his hand to rub his forehead. It was obvious that after achieving his goal, he had nothing to say to Xu Yan. He had no hesitation in participating in the draft, which meant that he didn't have much affection for him.
The person I have always liked is His Majesty, and now I just want His Majesty to be like before, only seeing my existence in his heart.
What if the pure nobleman is gone?
Chun Guiren brought Chu Xin here with Tang Wan. In fact, he brought her here specifically for other reasons.
"Your Majesty, I am guilty, please punish me!"
As soon as Chun Guiren came in, he knelt on the ground with Chu Xin. In fact, Ning Guiren tied up Chu Xin last time, but His Majesty didn't expect him to care at all.
"What's your fault?"
Yuan Heng asked curiously.
"I didn't know Chu Xin's true identity at first, so I kept her by my side. Later I found out that she was actually the princess of Chu State. I didn't expect that Your Majesty would not blame me at all. I am very grateful to Your Majesty for your tolerance towards me. Be generous.”
The pure noble never regretted keeping Chu Xin by his side. Even if he knew her identity, he didn't feel that it had brought any trouble to him.
But what moved her even more was His Majesty's tolerance. Even if Ning Guiren and the others kidnapped Chu Xin last time, no news came out. Obviously, these were His Majesty's intentions.
"No need to say this, just get up."
Yuan Heng said softly, "I know how you are. You don't have so many bad thoughts. It's good to have Chu Xin by your side."
This has always been Yuan Heng's idea, and seeing the two of them getting along better and better proves that his idea is right.
Chu Xin stood up holding Chun Guiren's arm. In fact, she blamed herself for not telling her life story earlier and causing her to worry for so long.
After delivering the pastries and going back, Chun Guiren patted Chu Xin's hand and said, "Actually, you don't have to feel guilty. I have never blamed you, and I have never regretted letting you stay by my side. I like you very much, no matter who you are. I like them all the same regardless of their status.”
It's not easy to have someone you like. Once you like someone, it's the same no matter who you are.
"It's all my fault. It would have been better if I had made it clear to you earlier. You must have been worried that day, right?"
Chu Xin was embarrassed to let others worry about her in vain. It was really cruel.
"You don't need to say this. You and He Xiang are both at my side. No matter what happens to either of you, I will be anxious and worried. This is human nature."
The pure noble man smiled, but after seeing the soft and beautiful man, the smile on his lips disappeared.
The last situation made it clear that Roumei was now on Ning Guiren's side. In this case, there really wasn't much to say.
I promoted Roumei in the first place, so it’s no big deal if others choose Ning Guiren.
"I have met a pure nobleman."
The soft beauty seemed a little flustered when she saw the pure noble. At this moment, she looked a little more haggard than before, and she was no longer so gorgeously dressed.
"Get up."
The noble man looked at him with a cold face. He was lucky that Chu Xin was safe. If something happened, he would really regret it.
