Chapter 365: The Little Scholar in Male Disguise and the Amazing Emperor 23
(Chapter 364 has been revised, you can watch it or not, you can watch the kissing part, I added a little bit hehe)
Cha Le looked at Yelu Zongzheng in surprise, then at Cha Jiu. Before leaving, he patted her on the shoulder and said meaningfully, "Sir He, you are doing very well. Even His Majesty specifically asked you to come when he changed the medicine."
Cha Jiu forced an ugly smile and nervously followed the emperor into the tent.
The curtains are lowered to block out any curious or jealous gazes from the outside world.
The palace servants had already placed the best medicine on the table.
However, looking at the way Yelu Zongzheng stood silently, it seemed that he had no intention of taking off his clothes and applying medicine.
Without waiting for him to speak, Cha Jiu knelt down first and bowed his head, saying, "Your Majesty, I am willing to give my all to help Your Majesty realize your wish for a prosperous world. I do not want to become a minister who ruins the court and the country...
"Get up." Yelu Zongzheng interrupted her, unable to bear the sight of her bowing her head in humiliation before him.
Everyone should be afraid of him.
But only Chajiu.
He didn't want to see any fear or alienation on her face.
Cha Jiushun stood up, but still kept his head down.
Yelu Zongzheng sighed in his heart and asked, "Do you blame me?"
Blame him for being so out of control in the woods.
Cha Jiu quickly said, "I dare not."
"You still hate me"
"I dare not."
Two, I don’t dare, not that I can’t.
Yelu Zongzhen's heart sank.
But he was still unwilling to give up, clenched his palms, and continued to ask: "Yan Yang, in your heart, what kind of person am I?"
"A wise ruler throughout history." Cha Jiu didn't even need to think about such a question.
There was a faint sneer on Yelu Zongzheng's lips, and it was unclear whether he was mocking her or himself.
"Yan Yang, no one knows your intelligence better than me. Since you have understood the question, why bother answering it with these empty words?"
Cha Jiu hesitated for a moment before he said carefully, "Your Majesty is a mentor, a brother, and... a close friend to me."
“There is nothing else”
"I have a heavy responsibility on my shoulders, and I dare not think about anything else."
There is something else behind Cha Jiu's words.
But to Yelu Zongzhen, this heavy burden was the eyes of the world, her future aspirations, and her wife and children.
Nothing is more heartbreaking than this.
How foolish of him to ask when he knew the answer.
To bring humiliation upon oneself.
Asking for trouble.
He closed his eyes, hiding the tiredness and sadness in his eyes, and said calmly, "Go out."
"But your injuries..."
"Don't worry about it." Yelu Zongzheng seemed to be a little angry.
Cha Jiu could only agree, but when he was about to step back to the tent, he was stopped again.
"Take the medicine on the table."
His tone was still indifferent, as if this was just a casual reminder, without any warmth, and it didn't linger in his heart.
But if she was really ruthless, how could she not notice the small wound on her hand left by the tiger?
Cha Jiu couldn't help but look up at him.
But the tightly closed curtains had already kept her out.
…
Cha Jiu walked out of the tent with the medicine.
The system held up its chin and sighed: "Yelü Zongzheng looks so sad. It would be better if you were not a man now."
Cha Jiu also sighed: "Yes, if I were a girl now, I would have given birth to a child."
The system was puzzled: "So why didn't you just tell him that you are not He Yanyang, but He Qingqing?"
“Why should I tell him?”
"Respond to his love, be with him, and then expose the evil things He Jinfu has done!"
"Then do you know what will happen?" Cha Jiu asked calmly.
The system scratches its head.
It originally wanted to answer rolling in the sheets, but it thought that if it was such a superficial answer, Cha Cha would definitely not ask.
"It's suspicion." Cha Jiu answered directly.
"The love of kings is a very complicated thing. They hold the supreme power in the world, which means that even if they are deeply in love with someone, they will instinctively look at their every move and every word with suspicion, wondering if they are trying to cling to their power."
"If I had admitted that I was He Qingqing, Yelu Zongzheng would have been happy at first, but then he would have suspected that I was so frank because I loved him, or because I wanted to use his love to get rid of He Jinfu, or to seek more."
Once feelings are mixed with interests, it is hard not to have people doubt their purity.
This is true for ordinary people, not to mention suspicious emperors.
The system hadn't thought of this level at all, and its mouth opened into an O shape.
But after a moment, it hesitated and said, "But Yelu Zongzheng used his life to protect you in front of that tiger..."
Cha Jiu shook his head helplessly: "Ah Tong, being willing to die for you and not doubting you are two different things."
The former only requires a momentary emotional impulse.
The latter is a long-term test of life.
Cha Jiu didn't expect that Yelu Zongzheng would "fall in love with him" one moment, and then he would be suspected and "all his family members would be executed" the next moment.
She had to steadily increase her favorability to 100% and complete the task in 3 seconds.
The system frowned: "How can we let him know that you are a girl?"
Cha Jiu just smiled without saying anything and applied the purple gold ointment in his hand, which only the emperor was qualified to use, to the wound.
…
In the following days, Yelu Zongzheng did not summon Cha Jiu to accompany him.
Moreover, when they met by chance on the road, Cha Jiu bowed according to the rules, but Yelu Zong Zheng just responded indifferently and walked past her, no longer as enthusiastic as before.
Everyone saw this change and tried to figure it out.
Soon, the news that Lord He had lost his heart spread throughout the camp.
Cha Jiu's mentality is very peaceful.
At first, the palace maids serving her would flatter her and look down on the inferiors, and were somewhat neglectful to her.
But after being taken out by Xiao Shunzi and given a lecture, they all became obedient, still maintaining their respect for Cha Jiu and doing just as much work as before.
As for who is behind Xiao Shunzi, it is obvious.
Li Bin, who was squeezed into a corner of the camp and lived there miserably, also took the opportunity to take revenge. She always made trouble for Cha Jiu over trivial matters, such as snatching some cakes or hot water for washing. Her family's instigation was more or less behind this.
After all, when Cha Jiu gained the emperor's favor, he showed his edge in the court, and the reform policies he proposed shook the interests of the aristocratic families.
If Yelu Zongzheng had not tried his best to protect her, the memorials impeaching her would probably have filled up half of the Yangxin Palace.
Cha Jiu was also surprised that these people had been able to hold back until now before launching an attack.
really.
The person who was plotting in secret found that Yelu Zongzheng ignored these small actions and Cha Jiu had been forbearing, so he finally took the courage and made a big move.
Release the poisonous snake.
There are mountains, forests and wilderness surrounding the tent, so it is normal to find poisonous snakes.
A little scribe who lost his conscience was killed by a poisonous snake while hunting. Who would bother to track him down?
Cha Jiu watched the Li family's every move on the system's real-time broadcast screen with great interest.
She chuckled and said, "Here comes the opportunity."
The system hadn't caught up with her thoughts yet, and said stupidly: "What chance?"
Cha Jiu stood up, walked out of the tent, and told the palace servants: "Prepare hot water, I want to take a bath and change clothes."
