The Child Emperor

Although the king of the East China Sea is not trustworthy at all, Han Ruzi was very happy to see him and said with a smile, Welcome, this is your first time to visit me.

With the maids present, the King of the East China Sea didn't dare to be too presumptuous, but he couldn't muster up the energy to pretend to be a courtier. He hummed twice and looked around, It's not that I want to come, it's the queen mother who ordered me to come.

Han Ruzi was confused.

The king of the East China Sea wandered around with his hands behind his back, but he refused to get close to Han Ruzi, That's right, a loyal minister stood up to speak for you on the first day of enthronement, but don't be too complacent, Liu Jie has caused you big trouble.

I'm not afraid of trouble, I just hope Liu Zhangxi is okay. In Han Ruzi's mind, the eunuch Liu Jie was indeed a true loyal minister.

Hey, of course Liu Jie is fine. He made such a fuss, and his reputation as an upright and loyal monarch has been gained. I don't know how many literati outside are writing articles to praise him. You are out of luck. Everyone knows that you are a puppet, and everyone is in peace. However, Liu Jie gave the outsiders a wrong impression, thinking that you still have some hope, and there will always be idiots who will write letters one after another to hope that the emperor will be in charge, and the result is...

The King of Donghai didn't glance at the maid until now, seeing that she had no intention of leaving, he continued: Fortunately, the queen mother is smart and wise, and she saw through Liu Jie's tricks at a glance, so not only did she not punish him, but also let him take charge of the seal. Anyway, this guy is a bit desperate, Baoxi is indeed safer in his hands.

Han Ruzi shook his head, You are too suspicious, according to what you say, all loyal ministers are just pretending?

Hey. Donghai King showed disdain to argue, went around and came to Han Ruzi, Your room is not as spacious as mine.

Really? I think it's big enough. This was the first time Han Ruzi lived in a room with warm pavilions on both sides, and he didn't feel cramped at all.

The King of Donghai still had a look of disdain, turned around and walked to the door, and said to the maid sitting on the round stool, Go out.

Meng E didn't even move her eyes.

She doesn't need to go out. Han Ruzi stood up, he didn't need Meng E to stay here, he just thought the King of the East China Sea was very rude.

You are the emperor, and you actually speak for a court lady! The King of Donghai turned around and said in surprise, Do you really understand...the origins of these people?

She wants to stay. Han Ruzi insisted.

You don't look like an emperor? The King of Donghai became more and more courageous, Have you seen my uncle today? Everyone is polite to him, and the Cui family has not lost their power. And look at that Shangguan Xu, who is so frightened by a trivial matter. He was shaking so badly that the mud couldn't support the wall.

Shangguanxu was indeed trembling at the time, but Han Ruzi didn't feel that Donghai King's uncle behaved better. Cui Hong always hid behind others and refused to even show his face.

Ascension to the throne is a game. The game is over. Who has the power in the past, and who is still in it now. The voice of the King of the East China Sea became louder and louder, and he turned around suddenly, facing the maid again, Don't be an eyesore in front of me, roll……

The king of Donghai not only moved his mouth, but also moved his feet. Although he was only thirteen years old, this kick was not light. If he kicked it, the court lady would fall down with a stool.

In the end, it was the king of the East China Sea. He screamed and got up immediately, angry and unconvinced, How dare you fight back!

Meng E stood up and slapped Donghai Wang lightly on the waist. Donghai Wang staggered a few steps and barely stopped, turned around with his hands on his waist, and said in surprise: You, you... I know this move!

Han Ruzi also recognized that in the Taimiao, a court lady who looked like a man used this trick to make the King of the East China Sea sit on the stool honestly.

Han Ruzi was even more surprised than the King of the East China Sea that Meng E knew martial arts and was not weak.

The king of Donghai slowly moved away from the emperor, and asked the court lady suspiciously: Why do you know martial arts? Who sent you here? You can't be an assassin, right? Uh...you don't need to answer these questions, as long as you recognize the target.

The king of Donghai didn't want to come to serve the emperor, but the queen mother had an order, and the eunuchs insisted on letting him come, but they refused to accompany him. The king of Donghai had doubts in his heart, and when he saw the court lady who knew martial arts, all doubts turned into conspiracy.

Meng E remained silent, and sat back on the round stool, staring blankly at her toes.

The room was quiet for a long time, the king of the East China Sea showed anticipation for a while, and was frightened for a while. He didn't understand why the maid hadn't made a move for so long. When the knock on the door suddenly sounded, the king of the East China Sea jumped up in fright.

Han Ruzi didn't care, what should happen will always come, and he would rather have a neat ending than waiting anxiously.

Meng E opened the door, and five maids and eunuchs came in, carrying tea, rice and candlesticks. It turned out that it was time for dinner, the outside of the house was shrouded in dusk, and the inside of the house was even darker. arrive.

Compared with a big lunch, dinner is much simpler, with two meat, two vegetables and one soup, as well as rice and snacks. Han Ruzi was really hungry. As soon as the food was put on the table, he ate voraciously, completely disregarding the dignity of the emperor.

An eunuch placed a small table on the couch, arranged the dishes, and then bowed to the king of the East China Sea.

Donghai King stood at the door of Xinuang Pavilion, glanced at the dinner from a distance, shook his head, expressing that he would not eat it, even if his stomach was growling, he would not eat it, he suspected that the food was poisonous.

There are far fewer rules for dinner. After Han Ruzi had eaten and drank tea, the waiter came to clear up the bowls and chopsticks. Han Ruzi held down a plate of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, Keep this, I want to eat it tonight, it tastes good.

The maid at work couldn't help laughing, then hurriedly restrained herself, put away the sundries and quickly exited.

All the waiters had retreated, it was already dark outside, and three candles were lit in different places in the room, very bright.

After a long time, the King of Donghai pointed at the emperor, I understand, I understand everything.

Understand what?

Why did the Queen Mother force me to be your attendant? This is her trick! The King of Donghai ignored the martial arts maids, and was full of grief and indignation. Above all, by exterminating the Cui family and framing it, this is framing!

Han Ruzi thought for a while, What you said seems to make sense.

It just makes sense? Donghai King raised his hand and beat his head, then strode up to the emperor, You are going to be killed, do you understand?

Understood, but what can I do? Han Ruzi looked at Meng E at the door, always feeling that the danger did not come from her.

There are two of us, she is a woman, and there is only one. The King of the East China Sea lowered his voice unnecessarily, It is impossible for the Queen Mother to bribe everyone in the palace. matter, and then...then let's go to Zhongzhangxi Liu Jie for protection and let him escort us out of the palace.

You said just now that he was pretending to be a loyal minister.

Ah... Please, can you reduce your memory a little bit? This is a matter of life and death! The King of Donghai grabbed the emperor's arm, trying to pull him up to deal with the maid guarding the gate.

Han Ruzi shook his head, No, you lied to me once, I don't trust you anymore.

Do you still remember the matter of Yidaizhao? Well, I told you the secret, but you can't blame me entirely, that old eunuch Jing Yao watched me like hell... Besides, aren't you okay? The bad luck is I, Jing Yao, failed to catch you and the minister, and was reprimanded by the Queen Mother, who took out his anger on me and scolded me, saying that I failed to accomplish anything well enough to fail, if I become emperor...forget it, Let's not talk about this, I am sincere this time, I never lied to you, I, I swear to God, if I lie to you again, I will die a terrible death!

Ok, I trust you.

The King of Donghai let out a long breath, turned to face the calm maid at the door, and hesitated, Do you think we can beat her?

There's no need to fight, she's not an assassin.

how do you know?

I can see that.

Ha, you are too simple, no wonder, you don't even have a master, no one taught you things in the palace. Let me tell you, the palace is the dirtiest place in the world, where human life is the least valuable thing .”

But you still want to enter the palace and be the emperor.

Two different things! Enraged, the King of the East China Sea threw off the emperor and strode up to the court lady, There are no outsiders, so you don't have to hide. To be honest, are you an assassin?

When the King of the East China Sea tried to persuade the emperor, Meng E didn't respond. At this time, it seemed that she didn't hear it, and she didn't even move her eyelashes.

The king of Donghai waited for a while, then turned around and said: See, only an assassin can be so calm and sit still for so long. She is waiting for the opportunity, in the dead of night, maybe it will be tonight, she will kill you with one knife, and then bring you The bloody knife was stuffed into my arms, leaving me speechless.

The more the king of the East China Sea thought about it, the more he felt that this must be the case, and he was terrified. Suddenly, he had an idea, jumped to the side of a pillar, and said loudly: Assassin, you and the queen mother's trick will not succeed, you dare to attack the emperor! , I'll just... I'll follow Liu Jie's example and bump my head to death here, and see how you plant it on the dead!

Also defending the emperor with death, the eunuch Liu Jie seemed loyal, while the king of the East China Sea was playing tricks, Meng E didn't respond, and Han Ruzi laughed, Assassins are hiding, they shouldn't guard the slain next to.

The king of Donghai thought for a while, You are too naive. The queen mother did this to prevent accidents. She must be an assassin. There are only two of us left as the son of Emperor Huan. If we die, the world will be in chaos. The foundation of the Shangguan family is not stable. The queen mother can't control the situation. The princes and kings of the Kanto are ready to move. This assassin... Sister, the master of martial arts! People should also talk about martial arts, do you want to see the situation of people dying? I know you are forced to, correct your evil ways, you still have a chance.

Meng E still didn't respond, Han Ruzi said, Hearing what you said, I don't think she's an assassin anymore.

What do you know? The King of Donghai glanced at the emperor bitterly, I'm trying to save our lives, and you owe me a favor.

Meng E stood up suddenly, and the King of the East China Sea took two steps back in fright, and stood against the wall. Han Ruzi's heart skipped a beat. To be honest, he wasn't particularly sure what Meng E wanted to do.

Puff puff puff, in the room with the doors and windows closed, the three lit candles went out one after another, and the surroundings were pitch black.
