Chapter 40 Yueming Tower Oh, the dog emperor has been exposed!
You bring trouble upon yourself, and you can only solve problems yourself.
During the days when he was collectively disliked by the men in the harem, Su Mian was depressed. He felt isolated, and this feeling was very uncomfortable.
Cheng Changgeng realized his mistake belatedly and began to think of ways to make amends.
In fact, it is simple. He just needs to transform Su Mian from a jinx to a lucky star.
For him as an emperor, this was a piece of cake.
He only needs to make a slight move and they will understand the importance of Su Mian.
This is indeed the case.
That afternoon, the weather outside was not too hot, so Cheng Changgeng specially sent Su Mian to visit the Third Prince at Huang Guijun's place and bring him some snacks.
Su Mian was not in a good mood, but he still agreed obediently. He took his time and took the snacks to Yueming Tower where Huang Guijun was staying temporarily. He didn't stay there for long. Huang Guijun didn't make things difficult for him, but his attitude towards him was still indifferent, and he couldn't be said to like him.
However, on the way back, he passed by a small lake in Han Palace and happened to meet Yun Zhengqing who was feeding the fish there.
Although Yun Zhengqing didn't really believe in metaphysics, he couldn't help feeling a little scared. Although he didn't leave immediately, he always kept a certain distance from Su Mian.
"Zhengqing is in a good mood."
Su Mian knew what to do and didn't come forward. She just greeted him from a distance. The two of them exchanged a few pleasantries and then Su Mian left.
Meeting Yun Zhengqing reminded him of his recent troubles. He even suspected that the Dog Emperor was deliberately retaliating against him, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence that everything was blamed on him.
"The dog emperor."
Su Mian casually pulled out a weed from the roadside and plucked its leaves in his hands until the weed was bare and only the stem was left, then he threw it on the ground.
When he came back from a distance, Qiming ran up to him and jumped around him. Su Mian thought that Qiming was the only one who was carefree and stuck to him.
In the past, in order to appear in front of the emperor, many concubines gave him money on the road. Now the dog emperor has cut off all his sources of income!
"Oh God! Save me!"
Su Mian stood there and sighed to the sky, praying that God or the system could help him.
But apart from the glare of the sun above my head, there was no change.
"well."
With his head hanging, Su Mian dragged his heavy body into the hall. He stood at the door. Before he stepped into the hall, he saw Cheng Changgeng looking up at him and asked, "Did you meet anyone on your way back?"
"Ah... I met Yun Zhengqing. He was feeding the fish by the lake."
"Go and invite him to have dinner with me."
ah?
Although Su Mian was stunned for a moment, he reacted quickly, regained his strength, and ran towards the lake.
This is a great thing for him. In this way, he is no longer a jinx!
You see, now that Yun Zhengqing meets me, he can have dinner with the emperor!
[That’s great, that’s great, that’s great! System, I love you so much! ]
Su Mian's excited voice was getting farther and farther away, but Cheng Changgeng heard it very clearly. He shook his head helplessly, told Xiao Dezi to prepare dinner, and continued to paint with a chuckle.
He also knew clearly in his heart that he liked Su Mian the most when she lived freely and unrestrainedly in the harem.
If he uses this method to make people around him stay away from him, it will make him sad, which is not what he wants to see.
Therefore, he was willing to sell his body to help him restore his reputation.
After the meal, Cheng Changgeng did not keep Yun Zhengqing to sleep with him. He could pretend to sleep with other people before, but now he didn't even want to pretend anymore.
He felt uncomfortable letting Su Mian watch him sleeping in the same bed with someone else.
Let others talk about him, he is the emperor after all, and he will punish anyone who has a problem with him.
That night, Cheng Changgeng entered Su Mian's dream again as expected. This time, Su Mian dreamed of the present world.
Perhaps what you think about during the day you will dream about at night. This time, Cheng Changgeng saw Su Mian dreaming about playing mahjong with Chen Ceqing and others on the stone table in the garden.
The few people were having a great time and laughing, and didn't pay any attention to him, the emperor.
However, Cheng Changgeng noticed a detail, that is -
Shen Ceqing was still wearing the dark green gown!
Do you like this color so much?
He clearly wore it once a few days ago, but Su Mian didn't notice it at all, which made Cheng Changgeng very dissatisfied.
No, he refused to accept.
So the next morning, when Su Mian was helping Cheng Changgeng to get dressed, several bright yellow and black gowns were placed in front of him, but Cheng Changgeng kept shaking his head to express his dissatisfaction.
Su Mian really wanted to slap Cheng Changgeng on the head and ask him what the hell he was doing. If he wanted to wear it, he could wear it. If he didn't want to wear it, then forget it.
Just when he couldn't help wanting to curse Cheng Changgeng in his heart, he saw Cheng Changgeng raised his hand and pointed at the dark green gown in the closet and said, "I'll wear that one."
When Su Mian saw the clothes in the direction of Cheng Changgeng's finger, he really couldn't figure out what Cheng Changgeng was thinking. That was not his usual dressing style.
[oh! ]
Su Mian suddenly realized something, which actually startled Cheng Changgeng who was eavesdropping. Then he heard Su Mian say very confidently:
[Could it be that the dog emperor discovered that he was being cheated on? ]
Cheng Changgeng's eyes went dark and he gritted his teeth to resist the urge to pinch Su Mian's cheek and scold him. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and told himself to calm down.
[It’s over, it’s over. Aren’t Rong Ceqing and Qin Caizi in danger? ]
"Su Mian."
Cheng Changgeng interrupted Su Mian's guess and asked seriously, "Does this dress look good on me?"
"nice!"
Su Mian speaks faster than his brain. If the leader asks you whether you look good or not, who dares to say you don’t look good? Su Mian still has a strong desire to survive in this regard.
"real?"
"Really, Your Majesty, you are a rare talent, with a graceful and heroic appearance. After putting on this dress, you look majestic, dignified, and extraordinary. You are simply a god descended from heaven!"
Look at this little mouth. If Cheng Changgeng couldn't hear his inner voice, he would really believe it.
[This thing is dressed like a green-feathered peacock, even more so than when I first saw Wei Caizi. What is the dog emperor doing in the middle of summer? Is he planning to go out and seduce those men? ]
Cheng Changgeng was a little angry. Why did he keep praising Shen Ceqing for wearing dark green? But to him, it became a green peacock.
Actually, Su Mian can’t be blamed for this.
Cheng Changgeng had an outstanding appearance, and Su Mian had never doubted this. The imperial clothes he wore on weekdays had a hormonal charm. However, this dark green clothes, which he had temporarily taken out from somewhere and was embroidered with fancy patterns, really ruined his temperament.
How could he know that the dog emperor was spreading his tail towards him?
Su Mian's heart and eyes are filled with hope that the Dog Emperor will favor two more people, so that he can regain his reputation and continue to make money by fleecing the sheep!
Even though he heard Su Mian complaining about him, Cheng Changgeng still wore the dark green outfit for the sake of face, and even found a white and green headband as decoration.
Su Mian is unbearable to look at, all he does is rely on his handsome face.
After accompanying Cheng Changgeng out, Su Mian's eyes rolled around as he remembered that he was going to test the Dog Emperor.
Cheng Changgeng only heard Su Mian mumbling something in his head about wanting to test him, but he didn't understand what exactly he was testing him with or how, so he didn't take it seriously.
"emperor."
Looking back and seeing that the eunuchs around him were not following closely, Su Mian looked for an opportunity to speak.
"What's wrong?"
Cheng Changgeng was still struggling with the fact that Su Mian thought Shen Ceqing looked better in dark green clothes than him, so he was a little absent-minded.
"I have served you wholeheartedly, can you give me a raise?"
"Okay, how much do you want to increase?"
Cheng Changgeng didn't think much about it and replied without thinking, completely unaware that he had fallen into Su Mian's trap.
When he reacted, he saw Su Mian squinting his eyes, tilting the corners of his mouth, with an expression that said "I caught you kid".
"I didn't hear you clearly, what did you just say?"
Cheng Changgeng chose to play dumb, but it was useless.
When he naturally added that sentence, he was completely exposed. After all, there is no such thing as salary in Lanling Country.
Combined with his previous acceptance of Xiao Pingguo and the speed at which he sang along, Su Mian was 100% sure that Cheng Changgeng was a time traveler just like him!
"emperor."
Su Mian gritted his teeth and moved closer to Cheng Changgeng, lowering his voice and saying, "Palace Jade Liquor."
"One hundred and eighty per cup."
Cheng Changgeng knew that he could no longer hide this matter from him, and he did not intend to hide it any longer, so he simply accepted Su Mian's signal.
He thought that if he revealed this identity, Su Mian would be more accepting of him, and it was not impossible for the two of them to have further developments.
Besides, after being together for such a long time, he already knew exactly what kind of person Su Mian was and whether he had any bad intentions, so he didn't worry at all that he would harm him.
"No more shopping! Let's go back!"
Su Mian said this in a vicious voice. How could Cheng Changgeng not agree? After Su Mian stood up with her arms around her chest and moved away from him, he immediately said in a good-tempered manner: "I'm tired, let's go back."
His voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough for the young eunuchs not far away to hear it.
The emperor's mind was unpredictable and his intentions were hard to predict. Even if Cheng Changgeng was trying to trick them, the young eunuchs didn't dare to complain.
But Su Mian was different. When he thought that Cheng Changgeng might come from the same world as him, he became excited and angry. The Dog Emperor actually hid so deeply!
"You also came from the modern era?"
Su Mian had calmed down a lot by now, and his tone towards Cheng Changgeng had a little more distance and respect. He realized belatedly that his tone was not very good when he found out the truth just now, so he kept a safe distance between the two of them.
"Yeah, three months earlier than you."
When they entered, Cheng Changgeng ordered the eunuch to close the palace door. At this moment, the two of them sat on the ground, looking at each other. Cheng Changgeng saw his defensiveness and couldn't help but said, "Don't worry, I won't hurt you."
"I know."
Su Mian responded very quickly, which surprised Cheng Changgeng.
"From what you said, you should have recognized me as a time traveler the day I fell into the water. If you wanted to harm me, I don't know how many times I would have died."
As he was talking, Su Mian seemed to remember something and looked a little embarrassed, but he changed the subject and asked, "Since you know that I am a time traveler, why don't you recognize me?"
Although Su Mian didn't say anything, Cheng Changgeng still caught his embarrassment and heard that what he was thinking about was the two of them sleeping together.
That’s right, knowing that they were both time travelers, he was the emperor, but he still slept with him... This was very immoral and Cheng Changgeng was not in the right.
He was silent for a while, automatically skipped this embarrassing thing, and replied: "I'm afraid you'll poison me."
