Chapter 36 I Just Want to Keep a Low Profile
The next day, Linghua Palace.
A hundred flowers are in full bloom.
When Helian Yue entered the side hall, he saw a world of colorful flowers and plants.
The corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
Those who knew that they were there to pay their respects to him thought that they were there to celebrate his failed assassination attempt.
Are you all excited that I was assassinated?
Among all the concubines, Concubine Quan and Concubine Lian were the ones who dressed in a more low-key manner.
Concubine Quan did so because she has always kept a low profile, and Concubine Lian did not dare to attract too much attention because she had displeased the Emperor yesterday. Now, by accident, they have become another breath of fresh air among the hundreds of flowers.
However, Helian Yue didn't look at them. He called them all here today not to watch them compete in beauty.
After scanning the crowd, Helian Yue fixed his gaze on Si Linglong who was standing quietly at the back of the crowd.
Although she lived in a side hall of Linghua Palace, she came here with the concubines at the right time. Apparently, she was caught on the road yesterday and was forced to work as a small official, which left her with a psychological trauma.
But the more important reason is that it is too eye-catching.
On the day of the family dinner, she was suddenly called up to sit at the same table with the Dog Emperor, but before she even touched the edge of the stool, an assassin appeared.
Yesterday, the dog emperor brought her past in a high-profile manner. Except for Concubine Quan, the other concubines looked at her as if they wanted to kill her alive.
[There are so many concubines today, I will just stay here quietly and go through the motions. ]
Helian Yue heard her heartbeat, but he chose to ignore it.
With a slight curl of his lips, Helian Yue looked at her, his voice lazy and pleasant, "Noble Lang, come here."
As soon as these words were spoken, all the voices in the hall fell silent, and almost unanimously, everyone turned their eyes to Si Linglong who was in the middle of them.
What kind of magic potion did Si Linglong give to the emperor? !
Why do I need her to serve me every time?
Si Linglong was also speechless.
Looking at Helian Yue sitting in the main seat, I only felt this scene, the murderous aura around me, and the smile of the Dog Emperor.
They are all very familiar.
[Dog Emperor, do you have to cling to me so much? Will I die if you don’t cue me for a while? Will I? Huh?]
No matter how reluctant she was, Si Linglong still walked up to Helian Yue obediently. After the previous two times, she was already familiar with the business.
Seeing Helian Yue gently raising his hand towards her, Si Linglong took it without any hesitation.
[Tsk, it seems like we are back in high school when we had to hold hands to go to the restroom together.]
The corner of Helian Yue's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but hold her claws tightly.
He had heard her say the word toilet!
I am the emperor, and holding your hand is a gift!
How dare you compare me to a toilet!
It seems that ten times of palace rules are not enough.
I'll give you a hundred times when I get back!!
Helian Yue thought so and no longer paid attention to Si Linglong. He just held her hand and listened attentively to the noisy heartbeats of the concubines below, trying to find the familiar one from those voices.
hear.
one,
two,
three,
Four……
Helian Yue followed their positions one by one to capture their heartbeats until his sight turned to the last one.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and his handsome face darkened slightly.
Seeing the emperor's face suddenly turn cold, everyone couldn't help but feel worried for a moment.
It was rare for the emperor to summon them to pay their respects today, but why did his face suddenly become gloomy before they even said a few words?
Could it be that Lang Guiren has displeased the Emperor? !
The concubines who had this guess couldn't help but feel gloating in their hearts.
Helian Yue, however, had no time to care about it.
He frowned and scanned the concubines below, searching repeatedly, but...
no.
The mastermind who scolded the dog emperor in the palace that day was not among this group of women.
Did he hear it wrong?
The voice that day did not come from the concubines, but from the family members of the ministers?
But who is that?
Who is it?
Who wants his life?
Helian Yue's face was gloomy, and he secretly grabbed Si Linglong's hand and tightened it. Si Linglong suddenly felt pain and couldn't help but frown.
【pain!】
