The Protagonist Only Thinks About Falling In Love

Chapter 44 The Regent



In the hot summer season, the scorching sun hangs high in the sky, and at noon, the sound of cicadas on the branches is continuous. The capital is located in a house in the east of the city, and people in the house are running back and forth.

There were two maids standing at the door of the wing room, their foreheads were wet with sweat, the maids wiped their sleeves, looked into the distance from time to time, paced anxiously, and couldn't help whispering to the maid next to them.

"This, how can this be done?"

"Why hasn't Xiao Zhuo brought Master Li here yet! If it's too late, if it's too late..."

"My lord, isn't he..." The servant girl mouthed "It's hopeless" behind her, and dared not speak out.

The other person was still sweating from the shock, "Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Don't talk nonsense!"

"Here we come! Master Li is here! Get out of the way!" The servant shouted loudly, followed by a white-headed old man.

This is Mr. Li, the royal physician in the palace, and also the doctor who often sees the doctor inside. The maid hurriedly opened the door and let Mr. Li enter.

The room is shady and cool, the windows are closed tightly, and there is a person lying on the bed quietly, with a handsome pale face, and almost no breathing, it seems that he is already terminally ill and there is no cure.

Master Li felt his pulse, surrounded by servants, not daring to breathe.

The room was silent for a while, when Mr. Li put his hand on the cold wrist that seemed to be broken, his heart beat suddenly, unexpectedly, he had no pulse, sweat broke out on his forehead, carefully Feeling the pulse, I'm afraid he was negligent somewhere and took the wrong pulse.

This prince has been weak since he was a child, and he has been hanging on his breath. A celestial master once said that he would not survive the age of a weak crown. Master Li has treated him for many years, but he can only help him maintain his body with medicine, and it cannot cure him. .

His frailty was brought out from his mother's womb, Master Li also knows that he has been exhausted until now.

The servant who came to look for him in the mansion told him on the way that the prince returned to the mansion a few days ago, and for some reason lost his temper, and then asked someone to call more than a dozen prostitutes to enter the mansion secretly. Send those women away, and then stay behind closed doors.

If you are already weak and not restrained, you will definitely hurt your body.

The prince didn't give an order, and the servants dared not enter the house. In this way, something happened.

Mr. Li's forehead was covered with fine sweat, and suddenly, he felt a slight beating under his fingertips. He tried it carefully, breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly turned his head to order his servants to fetch medicine and boil it.

The servants of this process are already practice makes perfect, and the servants are relieved to hear that they can still be saved. If this person is gone, they may not survive.

Wen Yijin was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, his body perception was still numb, his breathing was weak, he could only hear the sound of footsteps coming and going, and someone was giving him an injection.

His body was so heavy that he couldn't even lift his eyelids.

[076, have you cut corners on this body? 】

The system said in his mind: [Hello, my number is 067, your body has not been cut corners, we restored it according to the 1:1 ratio of the original body, because the original body is not in good health, so part of the energy of the body is constructed It has been blocked for the time being, and it will be returned to you after the task is completed. 】

[Sorry, 067, I remember. 】He said.

System: [It's okay. 】

Wen Yijin closed his eyes and realized that there was no danger from the outside world, so he began to think about it. He was originally numbered 0113 system. After awakening himself, he has been looking for the way to become "myself".

He has completed many tasks, most of which are related to assisting the king. He once thought that this is his way, and after completing the last task this time, he can become a human being and truly live.

This mission is also related to assisting the king.

This world is a small world derived from a novel. The protagonist of the novel is the king of the country he lives in, named Yin Xuanye.

And Wen Yijin is the regent of the court.

Yin Xuanye was originally the crown prince, and when he inherited the throne, he was still young. When the former emperor passed away, he ordered Wen Yijin, as the regent, to teach Yin Xuanye not to be negligent in taking over the affairs of the court.

Wen Yijin is not from the royal family, but because his father and the first emperor once ruled the world together, his father passed away not long after the settlement was settled, and the first emperor wanted to make up for it, so he was named king with a different surname.

The reason why he won the trust of the late emperor is not only because of his father's friendship, but also because he has been intelligent and docile since he was a child, and he abides by the rules, and his body is weak, so he is unlikely to have his own children in his life. From all aspects, he is the most suitable candidates.

However, the first emperor didn't know that this was a hypocrite who hid his minions and would only reveal his ferocious side when the time was right, just like a vicious poisonous snake, with a beautiful surface and cruelty behind his back.

He was weak and sick since he was a child, and he was extremely intelligent. He was unwilling to stop because of his frail body. He distrusted others and heard too many words like "he is intelligent, but his body..." His temper became twisted.

Before the former emperor named him regent, he was already ambitious.

Therefore, as the next emperor, Yin Xuanye, he gradually turned him into a puppet emperor, and Yin Xuanye would not be willing to be suppressed by him all the time.

In addition, Yin Xuanye, as the monarch of a country, has no real power in his hands, which is already a shame. He hides his strength and bides his time, but it is really difficult to support his own people in the court. He was discovered by Wen Yijin several times Every time Wen Yijin found out about the little tricks, he would find excuses to embarrass him.

This kind of behavior of stepping on his dignity made Yin Xuanye gnash his teeth in hatred. Even the eunuchs serving him in the palace were Wen Yijin's eyeliner. He even watched helplessly the loyal man in the middle of the journey. The slave was tortured to death, this was Wen Yijin's warning to him, warning him not to make unnecessary struggles.

He was like a beast trapped in a cage that was airtight.

Every time he went to court, what Yin Xuanye saw and heard was Wen Yijin fighting with the courtiers who stood opposite him, and he was not allowed to speak at all.

He grew up little by little in this suppressed atmosphere, until Wen Yijin became terminally ill, and Yin Xuanye joined forces with his opposing courtiers to overthrow him in one fell swoop, trapped him in the house, and was tortured every day. It didn't take long , he died of illness.

But this is not the end, this is just the beginning. Afterwards, Yin Xuanye will be plotted, assassinated and betrayed. After many hardships, he will be firmly seated on the throne. But at that time, he had already forgotten his original intention and could not return to the past. Eventually became a tyrant.

The task of 0113 is to change the ending of his becoming a tyrant.

Now the plot has only progressed to the first half. Yin Xuanye ascended the throne at the age of ten, and Wen Yijin took control of the government. It has been three years now.

Logically speaking, he should teach the little emperor how to govern the country, but this Wen Yijin never planned to return his power from the very beginning.

A few days ago, when he was in the court hall, he was ridiculed openly and secretly by an adult for being weak and inhumane.

Since he seized the real power, no one has ever dared to say such a thing in front of him—even before, no one had ever told him face to face. He immediately felt angry and blood rushed into his heart, but he didn't show it at the time, and made a big fuss when he came back anger.

If he is not happy, that person should not be happy either. He was still thinking about how to get revenge, but because of the anger, he was depressed and wanted to vent his anger. He asked his servants to recruit girls from the brothel, let them play music and dance, let them Served him, drank all night, and died.

……

"Lord Li, the prince can't drink this medicine, what should I do?"

"Help him up first... you are behind him... don't shake your hands—"

The sound of hurried footsteps came from far to near, a young servant was in a panic, and was reprimanded by the big maid in the room. The young servant cupped his hands and said, "Sister A Cui, Your Majesty is here!"

"Your Majesty!?" the servant girl exclaimed.

"This...quick, hurry up and get ready—"

In a blink of an eye, a bright yellow figure appeared outside, followed by the eunuchs in the palace, the room was silent, and everyone knelt down to salute: "My servant pays homage to Your Majesty."

They bowed their heads and knelt on the ground. The 13-year-old boy was wearing a bright yellow robe with fine embroidery on his waist belt and a piece of high-quality white jade pendant. He had a calm temperament and a head of black hair. Glossy, meticulously bundled up, the edges and corners of the face have begun to show their sharpness.

His facial features are good-looking, he is not very old, he has not yet grown up, and he looks indistinguishable from male and female.

"Where's the regent?" His voice was a little immature, "Gu heard that the regent is ill, so come and see him."

"Go back to Your Majesty, the prince is inside, I'm still awake, I'm afraid I won't be able to see Your Majesty." said the maid at the front.

"No problem." Yin Xuanye lifted his foot and walked inside.

The regent has not been to the morning court for three days, so he wants to come and have a look.

"Your Majesty, if the illness is passed on to His Majesty, and the prince wakes up, he will definitely blame the servants."

Yin Xuanye glanced at the servant, "Gu look at him, do you want to stop Gu?"

"Slaves...slaves dare not."

In the eyes of the servants, the little emperor was capricious, if he really stopped him, maybe he would punish them.

The eunuch who was following Yin Xuanye opened the bead curtain to let him in. Yin Xuanye looked away and walked in. The hot people outside were sweating profusely, but the room was cool.

He saw the ice cubes in the corner, and walked to the bed quietly.

The man on the bed was lying on his face without any blood on his face. His long black hair was scattered behind him, making his face even whiter.

Really sick.

Yin Xuanye sat down by the bed, wiped his fingers with a handkerchief, "Have you taken the medicine yet?"

The servant said that the prince couldn't drink the medicine, he was feeding it just now, and Yin Xuanye also saw a bowl of medicine on the table next to him, and smelling it made people feel bitter.

Wen Yijin felt that he was being helped up, and a few mouthfuls of medicine were stuffed between his lips and teeth. From time to time, a veil was wiped against his chin. Along with the sound of speaking, his brows frowned, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and he couldn't open his eyes again.

The voice in my ear was hazy, I only heard that someone seemed to be coming, ordered the servants to take care of him, and then left.

He heard from 067 that the person who came was Yin Xuanye.

Yin Xuanye hadn't performed exceptionally in the past three years, so Wen Yijin didn't restrict his actions too much. If he wanted to leave the palace and come here, it wouldn't be difficult.

That night.

Wen Yijin's senses finally returned, and his body was still heavy. When he woke up, there were several servants guarding him by the bed. As soon as he woke up, the room began to get busy in and out.

The servants in Yu's house said that Wen Yijin was their master and although he had a bad temper, if something happened to him, these people would not end well.

A servant girl diligently waited on Wen Yijin to wash up.

"When is it?" Wen Yijin took a sip from the teacup and moistened her throat.

"Go back to the prince, it's already midnight."

"Zi Shi..." Wen Yijin walked to the window, pushed it open, the night wind blew in, his long hair fluttered behind him, he closed his eyes and let out a breath.

"My lord, the food is ready." The servant girl said behind him, "Master Li said that the lord should not blow the wind."

Wen Yijin turned around, walked to the table and sat down, telling her not to close the window, so that the servants would not dare to disobey him.

There was a table of dishes with clear soup and little water on the table. After two mouthfuls, he lost his appetite. "What about the memorials for the past few days?"

"It's all in the study."

Wen Yijin got up and went to the study.

He approved a large stack of memorials, and he didn't feel sleepy after sleeping for a long time. When it was almost time to go to court, he stretched his neck, and the heavy fatigue was lingering, but he was much more energetic. Dress in court clothes, go out and sit in a carriage to go to court.

At Yinshi, before dawn, the ministers were waiting outside the Meridian Gate, and when they were whispering, Wen Yijin's appearance made the atmosphere tense, and many eyes fell on him. He walked to his place and stood still without realizing it.

"Prince Regent, I heard that you have been sick for the past few days. You should take care of your health and don't try to be aggressive." A minister with a gray beard said.

When a person passed by, he snorted heavily and walked between the two of them.

Wen Yijin turned her head to look over, the person who just walked past was the colleague who precisely stepped on the original body's sore foot a few days ago, and was a general.

He withdrew his gaze, and said with a gentle smile as if nothing had happened: "My lord is concerned, I feel much better."

The two chatted for a few words before ending the topic. Wen Yijin listened to what others were saying, and got a lot of news during this waiting period.

At Mao time, all the ministers entered the hall.

Yin Xuanye was wearing a yellow robe, a crown on his head, and the bead curtains were hanging down. He sat on the throne. After the ministers saluted, he avoided the salute. He glanced down, and when he saw Wen Yijin, he paused for a moment, and then continued as usual Also gave Wen Yijin a seat.

Most of the court affairs were decided by Wen Yijin. Now that the emperor has been in power for three years, he doesn't even have the right to speak. He propped his head, yawned, and listened to the dispute between the two groups below.

Today Wen Yijin only sat at the side and spoke very little, which made people puzzled.

There was no major event recently, after retreating from the imperial court, everyone was walking outside, Wen Yijin left the brigade, and went to the emperor's bedroom, the emperor's palace, and others needed to report, but he went all the way to his hall without hindrance.

"Your Majesty is changing clothes, please wait a moment for the regent." The eunuch saluted.

He asked the eunuch he had placed next to Yin Xuanye to tell him about the prince's recent situation, and after waiting for a cup of tea, he was summoned inside, and Yin Xuanye changed into the court clothes.

"My minister has seen His Majesty." He stood behind Yin Xuanye and saluted.

"Please get up quickly." Yin Xuanye turned around, with a small face that had not yet opened, like a white jade dumpling, "Regent, how is your illness?"

Wen Yijin's complexion has not yet recovered, like a piece of fragile paper, "I'm much better, thank you Your Majesty for your concern."

"That's good." Yin Xuanye stretched out his hand and asked, "Take a look, Gu's clothes look good?"

"The embroiderer in the palace is really skillful." Wen Yijin said softly.

Yin Xuanye: "Gu ask them to make a few for you as well."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The two chatted for a while, and they talked about trivial things, such as clothes, new teacups, and some interesting objects found by the maids in the palace a few days ago.

From the very beginning, Yuanshen had been rushing to raise Yin Xuanye, so he was given great freedom in many aspects, and even let the eunuchs and maids take him to play in the palace.

Wen Yijin interrupted him, "Your Majesty."

Yin Xuanye: "Do you have something to say?"

"That's right." Wen Yijin said, "What does His Majesty think about today's court affairs?"

"You can deal with those things." Yin Xuanye waved his hand, "Gu believes in you."

Wen Yijin sighed softly, "I think, I will find Taifu Lin to teach His Majesty in a few days, what do you think, Your Majesty?"

In one night, he had figured out the general relationship between the court and the court, and selected a few people who could be used. In the past, he mostly answered questions for the emperor by entering the emperor's dream. become human.

"Teacher?" Yin Xuanye paused, subconsciously glanced at Wen Yijin, and curled his fingertips, "Why did you suddenly mention this today?"

"I was negligent before. Your Majesty should learn, not just having fun." Wen Yijin said.

"Let's follow the regent." Yin Xuanye easily compromised.

"The minister will retire first."

"Prince Regent, take care of yourself."

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty, I will remember."

After Wen Yijin left, Yin Xuanye waved away the servants in the hall, and after a while, a man in eunuch uniform walked out from behind the screen, "Your Majesty."

"Tell me, what is his intention?" Yin Xuanye no longer looked like he was in front of Wen Yijin just now.

……

"My lord, are you going back to the mansion directly?" The servants were driving the carriage.

Wen Yijin sat in the carriage and waved his hands. He poured a cup of tea prepared inside and took a sip. The tea was a little cold, and he tapped the rim of the cup with his fingertips.

According to this point of time, in a short while, it should be time for Wen Yijin to discover Yin Xuanye's petty tricks.

The original body held the real power, so he dared to blatantly put eyeliners in the palace to monitor Yin Xuanye. Yin Xuanye also suffered a lot in places where people couldn't see him, but he was just a king in name only.

Combining these, and thinking about his getting along with Yin Xuanye just now, I feel that he is not as simple as he showed, and what he showed is more like a side that can make him relax his vigilance.

But these are indifferent to Wen Yijin, when Yin Xuanye is trained to be a Mingjun, it is the time for him to retire.

At that time, when his body recovers, he will be able to retire and travel around the world.

The premise is that it shows that he has no intention of harming Yin Xuanye.

Wen Yijin said that he wanted to find Taifu Lin to teach Yin Xuanye, he met with Taifu Lin, and three days later, he took Taifu Lin to Yin Xuanye's palace.

There is no court today. In the morning, the sun is scorching, and the hot weather makes people sweat profusely. Bamboo is planted in the courtyard of the back hall. When the wind blows, the bamboo leaves fall all over the ground.

When Wen Yijin arrived in the palace, he heard from the servants that Yin Xuanye went to catch the cicadas.

Lin Taifu on the side was holding a teacup, frowning slightly.

Wen Yijin got up and said with a light smile, "Teacher, please sit down for a while, I will come back as soon as I go."

He turned his head and said to the eunuch who came to report, "Take me with you."

The eunuch did not dare to neglect, most people in the palace knew that this was the one with real power.

They passed through the outer corridor and came to a courtyard. There were several big trees in the courtyard. Under one of the trees, court ladies and eunuchs were surrounded.

A court lady yawned and dragged her voice lazily: "Your Majesty, come down quickly, you are injured, and the regent will blame the servant."

The people next to him didn't seem to care much.

The sunlight passed through the gaps in the leaves, and the light and shadow fell in spots. The leaves on the tree trembled, and there was the sound of cicadas. A small figure was lying on the tree.

Wen Yijin stood in the corridor and stopped.

The person at the other end found him and hurriedly saluted, "The slave has seen the regent..."

Before they finished speaking, Wen Yijin saw the shadow on the tree crooked, and the leaves trembled.

Wen Yijin: "Be careful!"

"Ah!" With a short exclamation, Yin Xuanye fell from the tree.

"His Majesty!"

"Be careful, Your Majesty!"

The figure that fell from the tree rolled twice on the ground, curling up in pain.

Wen Yijin went down the stairs and walked over, knelt down in front of him, the servants over there dispersed, and hurriedly knelt down to apologize.

"Where does it hurt?" Wen Yijin asked Yin Xuanye.

Yin Xuanye curled up and didn't answer, Wen Yijin touched his leg, and scolded: "What are you doing in a daze, call the imperial doctor."

"Yes, yes, the slave will go now."

"No need." Yin Xuanye grabbed Wen Yijin's sleeve, panted with his mouth open, "Prince Regent, I'm fine."

He slowed down for a while, pulled Wen Yijin's sleeves and sat up, his little face was covered with sweat, his cheeks were flushed, and his lips were tightly pressed together.

After Wen Yijin asked him several times, he only said that his leg hurts. Wen Yijin got up and asked an eunuch next to him to carry him. The eunuch had just knelt beside Yin Xuanye when he was kicked away by his other uninjured leg.

"I don't want him to carry it." He said, trying to get up with a limp.

"Your Majesty, don't be willful." Wen Yijin squatted down to persuade, "You know, if you have a stubborn leg disease, you will not be able to walk like ordinary people from now on. If your dragon body is injured, no one here I can't bear it."

Yin Xuanye seemed to be bluffed by his words, and swallowed, "What you said, is it true?"

"Naturally." Wen Yijin said, seeing his compromising expression, he asked the eunuch next to him to carry him on his back, and then, the eunuch was kicked away by him again.

Yin Xuanye said dissatisfied: "I don't want him to carry it."

This little eunuch has always praised the high and stepped down. When Wen Yijin was away, Yin Xuanye ordered him to do nothing, but Wen Yijin valued him very much. This made Yin Xuanye hate this eunuch. Kicked twice.

"Then change someone." Wen Yijin said.

"No need." Yin Xuanye said excitedly, "Prince Regent, you should be alone."

As soon as he said this, the surroundings immediately became quiet, only the cicadas on the tree were still screaming. Wen Yijin also didn't expect him to make such a request, and was taken aback for a moment.

"Your Majesty." Wen Yijin's throat was itchy, and he tilted his head and coughed twice, "I'm afraid I'll throw Your Majesty down."

"Yes, you are not in good health." Yin Xuanye said, "You are not at home today to rest and recuperate. What are you doing here?"

"I came here with Mrs. Lin." Wen Yijin said, "Does your Majesty still remember what I said to you a few days ago?"

"Remember, then don't make the Tai Tuo wait for a long time, and be alone, Prince Regent." Yin Xuanye pinched the corner of Wen Yijin's clothes and shook them, looking at Wen Yijin with bright eyes, his androgynous face revealed simple.

Wen Yijin looked down at him for a moment, pulled the corners of her lips, and smiled, "Okay, it's all right, Your Majesty."

He turned his back, and Yin Xuanye's body pressed against him, and a pair of small hands came up from the back of his neck, "I'm lonely."

Wen Yijin gave him a backhand, and stood up. He was thin and thin, but his steps were unexpectedly steady. With a 13-year-old boy on his back, he walked very smoothly.

Yin Xuanye's appearance was naturally not suitable for seeing the Taifu. Wen Yijin asked an eunuch to tell the Taifu, and he took Yin Xuanye to change clothes.

Yin Xuanye lay on his shoulder, "Are you lonely?"

"Not sinking."

"Don't you want to be alone?"

"Your Majesty is too worried."

"Regent, you have such a broad back."

When the father carried him back in the past, his shoulders were also so broad, but although the father loved him, he would stop carrying him when he grew up.

"Your Majesty, when you grow up, you will do the same. You still have a heavy responsibility on your shoulders, waiting for you to fulfill it."

"I don't understand."

"I'll understand later."
