My Love Comes to See the Grass on my Grave - Chapter 68

When Gu Lang woke up, his head was a little heavy, as if the remnants of the wine had not been dissipated last night.

He lifted the quilt and got out of bed. Seeing the room was empty, he couldn’t help shouting, “Murong…”

The door was gently pushed open, and Eunuch Chen walked in with a smile, followed by a little **** carrying water.

“Young Master Gu is awake?” Eunuch Chen said, “His Royal Highness is in the imperial study, but I have to send someone there…”

Gu Lang said quickly: “No need, it’s fine.”

He took the veil handed over by the little eunuch, and his face was hot, afraid that Eunuch Chen would laugh at him that he would look for the prince as soon as he woke up.

Eunuch Chen went to the door to pass on breakfast, Gu Lang wiped his face, and suddenly heard Wu Liu roaring and asking: “Eunuch Chen, when will the emperor punish His Highness to kneel? I have something…shh? What?”

Gu Lang: “…”

Murong Yan knelt at the entrance of the imperial study, feeling that the sun was a little bright, and wanted to ask his father, could he kneel again when the sun went down?

He suddenly felt someone approaching behind him, and turned around to see that it was Gu Lang.

Murong Yan: “…”

Eunuch Chen, didn’t I tell you not to tell him?

Gu Lang silently took out a cushion from behind and handed it to him.

“It’s so good,” Murong Yan pulled him over with a smile, “I know that I feel sorry for my husband.”

Gu Lang said unnaturally, “Eunuch Chen gave it to you.”

Murong Yan put the cushion under his knees and said meaningfully, “Oh…”

Gu Lang stopped talking, walked beside him, and knelt down.

Murong Yan was stunned for a while, then smiled again, and pulled the mat out from under his knees, “Then put it on.”

Gu Lang shook his head and said, “I don’t need it.”

“No,” Murong Yan said, “Put on a pad, or your knees will hurt.”

Gu Lang: “No need…”

Murong Yan: “Put on…”

The old emperor’s roar suddenly came from the imperial study, “Let that idiot get out! Don’t be ashamed here!”

A little **** ran out and said to Murong Yan, “His Royal Highness, the emperor has asked you to go back.”

Murong Yan said loudly, “Thank you, Father Emperor!”

Then just sat on the ground.

Gu Lang: “…What’s wrong?”

Murong Yan: “My legs are numb, I’ll take it easy.”

Gu Lang frowned and leaned over to rub his legs.

Murong Yan looked at him under the sunlight, lowered his eyes and rubbed his legs, gentle and bright.

“How is it?” Gu Lang raised his head and asked, “Is it still numb?”

Murong Yan moved and said, “Knead up a little bit.”

Gu Lang touched his thigh up, “Here?”

Murong Yan: “A little more.”

Gu Lang touched it up again, “Here?”

Murong Yan: “A little more.”

Gu Lang: “…”

Up again, up again…

Gu Lang suddenly squeezed hard, and Murong Yan groaned in pain, “Hi…”

Gu Lang: “Are you still numb?”

Murong Yan: “…not numb or numb.”

Gu Lang picked up the mat and left.

Murong Yan hurriedly chased after him and said as he walked, “Why are you pinching so hard, your legs are turning blue.”

“Who told you…” Gu Lang said angrily, “This is the imperial study room!”

Murong Yan suddenly realized: “Oh, that means, you can go back, right?”

Gu Lang: “No!”

As if Murong Yan didn’t hear it, he wrapped his arms around his waist and whispered in his ear: “Then go faster, go back and help me see if it’s blue…”

Gu Lang: “…”

Ruan Nian sat on the bed, unable to remember how he got home last night.

He remembered that he and Qu Fengyun met the prince and his sweetheart in the restaurant. The prince invited them to drink together, and said that there was a female bandit who wanted to marry Qu Fengyun.

As soon as he got angry, he drank wine, and then seemed to be carried by Qu Fengyun…

After picking it up?

Ruan Nian thought for a while—can’t remember.

He got out of bed, opened the door, and saw Qu Fengyun washing his face in the yard.

Qu Fengyun heard the sound and turned around.

Ruan Nian found that his lips seemed to be broken and a little swollen, “You… what’s wrong with your mouth?”

Qu Fengyun asked, “Don’t you remember?”

Ruan Nian shook his head.

Qu Fengyun paused and said, “You bit it.”

“What… what?!” Ruan Nian stammered with a look of surprise, “I… I bit?!”

Qu Fengyun nodded, “Yes.”

Ruan Nian: “I, why did I… bite you?”

Qu Fengyun put down the veil to wash his face and walked out, saying, “I think about it myself.”

Ruan Nian: “…”

Should I ask you if I can remember?

He watched Qu Fengyun go out, remembered the post sent by the Prime Minister yesterday, and hurriedly shouted, “Where are you going? Are you going to the lake with Miss Xu?!”

Qu Fengyun turned his head and said, “Do you want me to go?”

Ruan Nian rolled his sleeves with his fingers and said, “Will you listen to me?”

Qu Fengyun asked again, “Do you want me to go?”

Ruan Nian shook his head, “Don’t…”

Then, Qu Fengyun still went out.

“You…” Ruan Nian said anxiously, “Didn’t you say no?!”

Qu Fengyun: “I’ll go see if breakfast is ready.”

Ruan Nian: “…Oh.”

After the Prince Dangchao confessed, the ministers were shocked, and they had to hand over a lot of discounts every day.

Although there were rumors before that the prince had the goodness of Longyang, no one knew whether it was true or not. Moreover, if the prince just kept people in the East Palace in private, everyone would turn one eye and close one eye.

But now, the prince and the emperor have brought this matter to the court, and they have to seal the prince concubine, and the officials are all in a hurry.

What a system! What a system!

So, headed by the Minister of Rites, every day he has to make a generous speech, persuading the prince to return as soon as possible.

They even checked several times, wanting to know which shameless one was, seduce the prince and confuse the prince. But the Minister of Rites didn’t see anyone clearly that night, and the people in the East Palace kept their mouths shut again, for fear that if they accidentally said the wrong thing, they would be hanged up and beaten by the prince.

The old emperor was drowning in piles of documents, and in a fit of rage, he sent them all to the East Palace, asking the prince to see what he had done.

The prince read it very seriously, and praised Lin Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites for his vigorous writing skills and outstanding literary talent.

But after a few days, Murong Yan found out that Lin Shangshu didn’t hand over any more papers.

“What happened to Lin Shangshu these few days?” Murong Yan asked Eunuch Chen, flipping through the papers, “Is there no papers?”

Chen Gonggong said: “Xu is worried about his son’s affairs.”

Murong Yan: “What happened to his son?”

Eunuch Chen: “I heard that he promised the son of the Minister of Punishment for the rest of his life. Lin Shangshu was very angry. The two are still kneeling in the Lin Mansion.”

Murong Yan: “…Thanks to his son.”

Also, why does this father like to let his son kneel?
