Chapter 418: Planning and Strategizing

"Scarring does not mean it will be cured." Nan Xi frowned, "You don't care about your body so much, are you deliberately trying to make me feel bad?"

"I am wronged." Rong Yu chuckled, "Your Majesty is aware of this."

Nan Xi was silent for a moment: "I haven't been to court since I ascended the throne. The dignitaries and ministers in the imperial capital can't help but speculate."

"Let them go." Rong Yu said calmly, "Let's see who messes up first."

Nan Xi nodded and said nothing more.

Judging from his tone, you can tell that he has already made plans in his mind.

In the midst of strategizing, victory can be achieved thousands of miles away.

In terms of political power, he is a thousand-year-old fox, and she is an ignorant child.

She doesn't have to worry about it at all.

But thinking of Xie Jin's unruly temper, Nan Xi frowned: "Su Hanyu is really not a smart person. If such a brain really enters the harem, Su Consort won't worry that he will ruin the Su family?"

Xuanyuan Qi was getting married, and there were many nobles and nobles from the imperial capital. He actually openly speculated on the holy will and bluntly said that Xuanyuan Yao was left in the imperial capital as a hostage. Even though the empress and the regent had just entered the Dazheng Palace, their foundations were still shallow. As a wise person, People should not take the initiative to provide such a means of seeking death.

If Prince Consort Su and his wife really cultivated him to become an imperial husband, why wouldn't they teach him speaking skills?

"Su Hanyu's temperament is like his mother." Rong Yu raised his head and stroked Nan Xi's hair, "It's hard to change a natural temperament."

Nan Xi was silent for a moment and nodded.

I roughly understood what he meant.

What is in one's bones is innate, and it is indeed not easy to change unless something huge changes one's destiny in life. If Su Hanyu's temperament is like her mother's, then it is obviously a kind of innate superficiality, narrow-mindedness and self-righteousness - -At least Rong Yu’s words were not meant to be complimentary.

Moreover, there is indeed nothing worthy of praise in Su Hanyu's performance.

"Men have always been superior to women in Dongling. After all, the queen is in the minority. Prince Consort Su and his wife have never seen how the emperor's husband intrigues and plays with power, so they may think it is no different from the intrigues of the concubines in the harem." Nan Xi said with a faint smile. , "Since the Su family wants Su Hanyu to enter the palace, they must have taught him some ways to survive in the harem. However, if they are just taught according to the standards of ordinary concubines, I don't wonder why he is so stupid."

After all, men and women are inherently different.

Applying the methods of harem concubines to men will not only appear nondescript and make people laugh, but it is also a sign of seeking death.

In the harem, one wrong step would lead to an abyss of eternal destruction. Did he think it was just a child playing house? Is it possible to win a big victory just by using lip service?

"Ignore him." Rong Yu obviously had no interest in this person, so he picked Nan Xi up and walked to the bed in the inner hall, "It's late, go to bed."

"Put me down." Nan Xi frowned, "Don't hug me again until my injuries heal."

Rong Yu didn't listen to her and walked to the edge of the bed and put her on the bed. He took off his robe and then took off his shoes and went to bed.

"Although I have never been injured like this before, it is not unusual for me to be injured. Don't be too nervous, Xi'er." Kissing her cheek, he smiled easily, "On the battlefield, injuries are commonplace when fighting with swords. If you are a general, How can you lead troops to fight if you are so delicate?"

Nan Xi looked at him expressionlessly: "So, having you stay in the palace to recuperate for the past two days has actually wronged you?"

"What are you talking about, Your Majesty?" Rong Yu stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms, his voice was low and sweet, with a lot of affection, "Even if I am not injured, I am willing to stay here. As long as Xi'er is by my side, even if I am sleepy, I will never feel aggrieved until I grow old.”

Nan Xi was so coaxed by him that she lost her power in an instant, and said coquettishly: "The love words are getting better and better."

Rong Yu smiled and held her in his arms, "There will be a banquet at Guangyang Palace tomorrow night to entertain the envoys from South Vietnam and Northern Xinjiang."

"Tomorrow night?"

Rong Yu hummed: "I've already given the order. The etiquette department just needs to prepare it. It doesn't need to be too grand."

Nan Xi frowned: "Can your body bear it?"

"Xi'er." Rong Yu laughed, "Don't think of me as weak."

Nan Xi then stopped talking.

"Xi'er, be good." Rong Yu kissed the corner of her lips, "In addition to entertaining the envoys, it was also to allow the Dongling courtiers to take their thoughts into consideration. It is already the sixteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and New Year's Eve is approaching. "There are already a few days of court meetings before the New Year, so I will simply take a holiday early and start going to court after the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. My husband's injury will be better by then, and there will be no further delays."

Nan Xi glanced at him, remained silent for a moment, and nodded gently: "You can decide later."

Rong Yu hugged her tighter: "Sleep."

The moonlight is bright tonight.

The clear and calm moonlight came through the window, casting a silvery glow all over the place, illuminating the palace softly.

When love reaches a deep level, even if you do nothing and just embrace each other quietly, you can still feel the satisfaction and fulfillment from the depths of your soul.

Nan Xi leaned in Rong Yu's arms, feeling at ease in her heart.

At this time, Xie Jin and Xuanyuan Yao had just come out of Prince Jing's Mansion, and the bright moon illuminated the sky and the earth as brightly as day.

The Su brothers have been gone for a long time.

Chu Nanyi still held the folding fan in her hand and said in a graceful manner: "It's getting late, I want to go back to bed. Should you two meet up to visit the brothel, or go home separately?"

Meeting at a brothel?

Xuanyuan Yao frowned subconsciously: "I am a pure and self-respecting prince. I don't like to set foot in a brothel."

Chu Nanyi raised an eyebrow: "I didn't expect that Prince Yao is such a gentleman."

"You're flattering." Xuanyuan Yao was not happy, "If Mr. Xie Jiu is interested, you can go find your confidante to chat, drink tea, and listen to some songs..."

Speaking of this, Xuanyuan Yao's tone slightly changed, and there was a hint of meaning in his voice: "When love is strong, it's wonderful to have a mandarin duck play in the water and enjoy the pleasure of love and water."

Xie Jin raised his eyebrows slightly: "Yaoyao has never been to a brothel, how can you know the taste of that wonderful?"

"You haven't eaten pork, but haven't you heard people talk about the taste of pork?" Xuanyuan Yao said, "When I was in Huainan before, there were several generals around me who liked to visit brothels. After visiting, they would always praise the girls in the brothels for their tenderness... Forget it, why am I telling you all this?"

Waving his hand, he said: "This prince is tired and wants to go back to the mansion to sleep. You can do as you please."

After saying this, he really turned around and left, without any intention of staying.

Xie Jin stared at his back indifferently.

The young man was slender and well-proportioned, thin and upright, with a distinguished aura formed by years of military training. However, Xie Jin inadvertently discovered that this baby had a thin waist and did not look like a big and strong general.

Author's words:

About the plot. I have a problem that I want to change but cannot change, that is, the timeline always goes by very slowly. Obviously, many things have happened in the plot, but in fact, not much time has passed, and the characters in the book have not known each other for a long time, so many things have to develop naturally, and you can't be too anxious, take your time.
