"The Emperor" has four male protagonists and four corresponding data, namely IQ, EQ, action and decision-making ability. The four male protagonists have their own strengths and weaknesses in these four aspects.
For example, the great general Shao Jingyu has the highest action value; the genius prime minister Jiang Yi has an explosive IQ; and the romantic young man Jian Yuxian has a very high EQ.
As the future emperor and the highest authority, the most important thing for Nangong Xuan is to have decision-making power in front of the ministers. Nangong Xuan has the highest decision-making power among the four.
Of course, his IQ will not be low, and his mobility will remain at a normal level. As for the remaining emotional intelligence, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who has been flattered since childhood, has never had this thing.
Only 22.
During the Chen Xia period, Jinling City.
In March, the peach blossoms on Fuyu Mountain are in full bloom. Although it is far north of Jinling, the sweet fragrance of peach blossoms can be smelled in the city.
The luxurious and magnificent carriage stepped over the small bluestone slab. The windows inlaid with gold and gems were blocked by a curtain of light purple gauze. The breeze lifted the corner of the curtain, revealing a graceful figure, which made passers-by couldn't help but look back. Behind the carriage were two other green-covered carriages following, which were obviously the servants of the rich and powerful. It was obvious that the identity of the people in the carriage in front was not simple.
The carriage swayed gently, and Lu Mei secretly glanced at her young lady. Yan Yiming leaned lightly on a small pillow, closing his eyes as if thinking about something.
Ever since she got on the carriage, the young lady hasn't said a word, not at all like her usual lively self. Lu Mei stared at Yan Yiming's brows which were furrowed little by little, and her little round face slowly drooped. She felt more and more aggrieved for Yan Yiming.
The young lady must have felt extremely upset. She threw away the gift sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today. It must have been because she was too disappointed and acted impulsively in anger. Thinking of the young lady's usual infatuation with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Lu Mei felt that her young lady was forcing herself to smile and act strong.
She was just a little maid and didn't dare to complain to the prince, but now she couldn't help feeling some resentment in her heart.
If he couldn't keep the promise, why did he agree to it and make the lady happy for nothing?
Yan Yiming couldn't have imagined that Lu Mei had thought so much in such a short while. In fact, she was just carsick.
Lu Mei pursed her lips, stood up, made some tea, and gently called Miss, "...If you don't want to go, then don't go..."
"Why not go?" Yan Yiming opened his eyes and took a sip of the tea. His delicate eyes, which even an artist could not depict, were filled with a smile and a hint of excitement that could not be concealed. "Fuyu Mountain has a unique beauty today. It would be a pity if we missed it."
Although the peach blossom season is not long, it is not short either. Is there any difference between the peach blossoms today and tomorrow? Lu Mei didn't understand the hidden meaning in Yan Yiming's words, and thought that Yan Yiming didn't understand what she meant, so she comforted him more directly, "The peach blossoms on Fuyu Mountain will probably be in bloom until the end of the month, so there are still some days. Your Highness the Crown Prince is busy today, so please come back another day when you have time..."
Yan Yiming sipped his tea and sneered, "Why invite him? It's just a waste of time to ruin your mood."
Lu Mei became more and more sad. After being in a dilemma, she suddenly held Yan Yiming's hand and said, "Miss, don't be sad. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must still care about you..."
Yan Yiming: “…”
This girl is indeed devoted to her master, but she is a little too straightforward. Yan Yiming firmly believes that even if he emphasizes a hundred times that he does not like Nangong Xuan, this girl will not believe it.
Yan Yiming closed his eyes again and dealt with the talkative little maid, but his mind was thinking about the plot of the game.
When they were still playing the game from the female protagonist's perspective, Jian Yuer occasionally suggested going to Fuyu Mountain to see the peach blossoms. Nangong Xuan, who happened to be a guest at the Prime Minister's Residence, naturally had no reason to refuse.
Miss Yan is of distinguished status and extremely beautiful. She must be an extremely arrogant woman who likes to be high-profile and a bit domineering in everything. She can say in front of so many people without any scruples that she will not marry anyone else but Nangong Xuan. She treats Nangong Xuan with great tenderness, but she is not like that to others.
So after the prince broke his promise, Miss Yan was heartbroken and went to Fuyu Mountain alone to appreciate the flowers. But by chance, she ran into the prince who said he had something important to discuss, and Jian Yuer who was beside the prince. She immediately exploded with jealousy. In front of the Crown Prince and Jian Yuxian, she pointed at Jian Yuer and scolded her, saying that Jian Yuer must have known that she had an appointment with the Crown Prince, so she deliberately asked the Crown Prince to come here today.
This self-righteous young lady was a little too provoked. She pointed at Jian Yuer and asked Nangong Xuan harshly, "Am I not as good as this bitch?"
Originally, the Crown Prince and Jian Yuxuan were in the wrong as they had deceived Miss Yan, but Miss Yan's few questions instantly turned her active position into a passive one.
Yan Yiming found it somewhat amusing that the screenwriter portrayed the supporting female character as too brainless. Of course, she should question him, but not in this way.
She called Jian Yuer a bitch in front of Nangong Xuan and Jian Yuyan. Even Jian Yuyan, who always had a smile on his face, lost his smile after hearing what Miss Yan said. The prince didn't like her in the first place, and when the person he loved was insulted like this, how could he show mercy to Miss Yan?
Comparing Jian Yuer, who was so aggrieved that she cried, and Miss Yan, who looked strong but was actually weak, Nangong Xuan immediately said,
"How can you compare to Yu'er?"
Tsk, it’s really poisonous, Yan Yiming sighed.
He even called her Yu'er in front of her.
Yan Yiming remembered that when he was playing the game, after hearing Nangong Xuan's "Yu'er", he stood in Jian Yu'er's perspective. The subtitles of the game were, "He is protecting me with such an intimate name, and my heart began to beat uncontrollably." 】
Little did he know that this word of protection, which stirred Jian Yuer's heartbeat, broke the heart of another girl.
The sweet scent of peach blossoms seemed to be smelled all around. The carriage slowly stopped. Yan Yiming opened his eyes, took Lumei's hand and carefully got off the carriage.
"Miss, are you going to Fuyu Temple?"
Fuyu Temple is an important scenic spot in Fuyu Mountain. It is also a place frequented by dignitaries. It is visited by many people all year round. Every spring, the peach blossoms in the temple bloom beautifully.
"No," Yan Yiming looked up at the mountain ridge. The peach pink color of the mountain was lightly mixed with a touch of emerald green. He said softly, "The best view of Fuyu Mountain is not in Fuyu Temple. There is a bamboo pavilion on the south slope of the mountain ridge. The flowing wine cups and winding water are all over the peach pink. That is a good place to enjoy the scenery."
Fuyu Mountain in March was indeed extremely beautiful. Jian Yuyan almost always granted Jian Yuer's requests, not to mention such small things as appreciating the flowers. However, he never expected that the prince would come to the Jian family in person and go along as well.
Jian Yuyan still regrets letting Nangong Xuan see Yu'er, but now he can't find a reason to stop him.
Now, all he could see was the smiling faces of Nangong Xuan and Jian Yuer as they talked, and his ears were filled with their harmonious laughter. Jian Yuyan's eyes gradually darkened, and those eyes that always held a smile no longer had a trace of smile in them.
Nangong Xuan had no objection to Jian Yuyan leaving for a while under the pretext of leaving. Jian Yuyan walked more than twenty steps away before slowly stopping. He leaned his tall body against a peach tree, and there was no expression on his handsome face. It was unknown what he was thinking.
Only when he heard the faint footsteps and the woman's sweet voice did Jian Yuyan raise his head.
This place was specially built by Nangong Xuan. Very few people know about it. How could anyone come here? I turned my head slightly and found that the figure seemed a little familiar.
Then Yan Yiming's surprised voice was heard, "Master Jian!"
Jian Yuyan was stunned for a moment. He never expected that this young lady would appear here.
Yan Yiming walked for a while, and a light sweat appeared on his smooth forehead. His cheeks were slightly pink, which made his stunning face even more charming. His autumn-water eyes looked as if they were soaked in water, and they were incredibly beautiful.
When she saw Jian Yuyan, she showed no sign of concealing her surprise. She quickly approached Jian Yuyan while holding up her skirt, "Why are you here, Master Jian? Didn't you say you had something important to discuss with His Highness?"
Jian Yuyan quickly came back to his senses, and without showing any sign of confusion, he smiled and said, "I came here to enjoy the flowers with my friends."
Yan Yiming nodded slightly, and then asked a little embarrassedly, "What about His Highness? Didn't you say that His Highness had something important to discuss with Master Jian?"
The prince is naturally here.
Even though Jian Yuyan even wanted Yan Yiming to deliberately sabotage it, he also thought of Yu'er being here too. Miss Yan was domineering and willful. If she saw Yu'er and His Highness being alone together, she might not hate His Highness, but she would definitely hate Yu'er. In the end, for Yu'er's sake, he still hid the truth and said, "Why is His Highness here?" Jian Yuyan turned his head and chuckled, "His Highness returned to the East Palace after discussing things with me, but why is Miss Yan here?"
When Yan Yiming heard Jian Yuxian's words, he could not hide his disappointment. He bit his bright red lips, looking extremely disappointed after seeing hope. He whispered slowly, "I was wrong. Your Highness is so busy, why would he come here?"
Jian Yuyan thought of Nangong Xuan, who should have been busy with his daily affairs but was clearly talking to Yu'er, and he did not nod in agreement.
"Miss Yan," Jian Yuyan said softly. Yan Yiming looked up at Jian Yuyan and said with a fake smile, "Nothing, Master Jian, don't worry. By the way, is Master Jian also appreciating the flowers?"
"Um."
"Everyone knows that there is Fuyu Temple on Fuyu Mountain, but few people know that there is another wonderful sight on Fuyu Mountain. There is a small bamboo pavilion not far ahead, and there is a stream flowing beside the bamboo pavilion. Mr. Jian, would you like to go and see it with me?"
Jian Yuyan's heart stagnated for a moment, but he immediately said, "I am willing to go if Miss Yan invites me, but this place doesn't have the scenery Miss Yan described. I do know another place, are you willing to go there, Miss Yan?"
"Mr. Jian, you and your friend have an appointment to drink tea here, how can you leave your friend to accompany me?" Yan Yiming lifted her skirt and walked over Jian Yuyan, "Besides, since I'm already here, how can I justify walking so far today if I don't take a look?"
This place is only about twenty meters away from Jian Yuer and Nangong Xuan, but because there is a peach tree blocking their view, as long as they walk past the peach trees, they can have a clear view. Jian Yuyan reached out to grab Yan Yiming, but Yan Yiming seemed to have expected it and lifted up her skirt and took two or three steps away.
In a flash, they had passed the peach tree, and Jian Yuer and Nangong Xuan, who were chatting and laughing, came into clear view.
The slender body suddenly froze in place, and Lu Mei, who had been following Yan Yiming, was so shocked that she shouted, "Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
The two people over there heard the noise and turned their heads suddenly, and their expressions changed when they saw Yan Yiming's pale face.
Jian Yuer stood up hurriedly with a look of panic on her face. Nangong Xuan was surprised and a little embarrassed, but when he saw Jian Yuer's pale face, he comforted her with some heartache, and when he looked up again, there was no expression on his face.
