Ling Mu'er knelt in front of the emperor, and answered everything she had found truthfully. From the corner of her eye, she carefully observed the emperor's subtle expressions, and she saw his body tremble.
"You mean what you said?" The emperor couldn't believe it was true, he would rather believe that it was a lie fabricated by Ling Muer.
"Yes, Mu'er dare not lie."
An hour ago, the emperor ordered someone to summon her into the palace. He originally thought that the emperor was discussing the upcoming marriage with her, but he didn't expect the chief eunuch to lead her directly to the cold palace.
Full of repulsion, she didn't want to complete this job well, but when she walked into the cold palace and saw a crazy woman, she was shocked.
The originally arrogant and domineering empress, full of scheming and revenge for her kindness, became insane.
After shedding all her fine clothes, she seems to have become Aunt Chen who fainted in her hospital again. She is no different from a normal lunatic. many years ago.
Ling Muer immediately took her pulse and observed carefully. Experience told her that she was really crazy, not pretending.
Seeing the Empress like this, Ling Mu'er was both irritated and funny. The empress who was arrogant and hurt him many times because of her status as a queen would have ended up like this.
It turns out that after staying in the cold palace for a long time, a deep palace woman who has completely lost favor and no one to take care of her will really go crazy.
When you see her, you will think of Concubine Yi, the crazy woman who was imprisoned in the side courtyard of the county prince's mansion back then. I don't know if Aunt Chen has ever thought that she will become like this one day.
Sure enough, good and evil will be rewarded in the end, it's not that the time has not come yet.
"Forget it, since that's the case, then so be it."
After getting a definite answer, the emperor took a deep breath and leaned tiredly on the dragon chair, as if he lost energy for a moment.
Ling Mu'er didn't understand what the emperor's melancholy face was for, and she still couldn't forget her old love for the vicious queen? Thinking of this, she was a little annoyed.
"Does the Emperor need Mu'er to treat her?" If she can cure Concubine Yi, naturally she can only treat the Empress. After all, she just got sick, so it is much easier to treat.
Sure enough, the emperor's eyes lit up, but soon he dimmed again.
"Heaven's evil has something to live on, but self-inflicted evil can't live on. All of this is her own fault. She planted the cause herself, so naturally she has to bear the fruit. Since this is God's arrangement for her, how can I compete with God?" The emperor shook his head, and when he looked at Ling Muer again, there was a sneer on his lips, "Are you satisfied with the queen's current fate?"
Ling Mu'er immediately knelt on the ground, "The daughter of the people is terrified, and can't understand what the emperor is saying."
"Hmph, if you don't understand, then no one will understand." Although the emperor said this, he couldn't see the slightest anger, "I have decreed that you will be the second prince and concubine soon, this is the time What kind of girl do you call yourself?"
Seemingly very dissatisfied with her self-proclaimed emperor, Ling Muer looked up carefully to observe his frowns and smiles, why did she suddenly find that she couldn't understand this high-ranking emperor.
"After all, the marriage date has not yet arrived, and a civilian girl is still a civilian girl, and she dare not get closer."
"You are sensible!" The emperor was very satisfied with her answer, and slowly stepped down from the dragon chair, and gave her a look, indicating that she could get up.
After Ling Mu'er got up obediently, some eunuchs came to watch tea.
Regarding the preferential treatment given to her by the emperor today, Ling Mu'er was very flattered, but she didn't show anything, but sat on the side very obediently, pretending to be listening carefully.
"If my guess is right, you must have been wondering why I asked you to come into the palace to see her?" The emperor turned his back to her and asked, "After all, in your eyes, she has already been thrown into limbo by me. A favorite woman is really nothing to me, there are three thousand beauties in my harem, and she is a lot less, and I will naturally forget it after a long time, but that is just your idea."
The emperor took a deep breath. At this time, he was standing at the window, looking at the ginkgo tree outside the window, and he was in a daze.
"People in the world often say that the most ruthless emperor's family is the most, but even if I am an emperor, I am still a mortal." He sighed, "The so-called husband and wife for a day, even if she makes a big mistake, she still has a relationship with her." We were together as husband and wife, and I learned that she was seriously ill in the cold palace, how could I turn a deaf ear to it?"
A high-spirited emperor, at this moment, really looks like a husband who is about to lose his beloved wife. His face is full of melancholy, and he looks ten years old in an instant.
I have to admit that too many things have happened in the palace during this period of time. Although he is the emperor above ten thousand people, he is right. After all, he is just a mortal, and he also has seven emotions and six desires.
"Muer believed what the emperor said, the emperor is a person who values affection, otherwise he would not have treated Concubine Yi so kindly to the imperial concubine who returned to the palace, and would not have missed Shao Chen's mother, and even made up for all the guilt on Shao Chen Already." For this, Ling Muer respected him.
At least the emperor didn't treat anyone badly in matters of relationship, even if he made a mistake at the beginning, but he was trying his best to make up for it, otherwise how could he promise Shangguan Shaochen to insist on taking her as his wife.
"Chen'er has a good vision. Regardless of your identity, you are indeed a good girl. You are not only intelligent, but also have extraordinary medical skills. I heard that you are very loved by the common people?"
It was the first time that the emperor commented on her so pertinently, and Ling Mu'er didn't know how to answer for a while.
"The emperor praised you." She humbly lowered her head, not admitting it, but also not denying it.
"You don't have to be humble in front of me. The common people call you Miss Doctor Immortal. I already knew about it. You are rejuvenated, and you really deserve this title." This is one of the reasons why she promised Chen'er to marry her.
"Do you know why I agreed to Chen'er to marry you?" The emperor turned around and asked, "You should know your identity, let alone the second prince's concubine, even a small side concubine has to be weighed carefully, you should know more Chen'er is in my eyes, what kind of status will he have in the future."
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, Ling Mu'er will always keep her identity in mind, and will never embarrass the royal family, nor will she become a burden to Shao Chen. I will do my best to be his wife and abide by my duty."
He didn't answer the emperor's words, but made a promise very piously and seriously.
The emperor was very satisfied with this, "Very good! Since you know what you need to do in the future, I won't embarrass you anymore. I have already agreed to your marriage with Chen'er. We will be a family in the future. I believe you are a smart person." People, naturally know what to do and what not to do. Then from now on, I will not interfere with you again."
He waved his hand, indicating that Ling Mu'er could step back,
Before leaving, Ling Mu'er clearly saw the emperor sitting on the dragon chair with his eyes closed and resting with a tired face, as if he had just experienced a catastrophe.
She is a doctor, so she could tell that something was wrong with the emperor's body at a glance. She opened her lips to say something, but the eunuch beside her made a silent gesture for her. Could it be that the emperor knew that he was ill?
Xianwangfu.
"Young master, the second prince has failed." Zitong reported.
"Really?" Su Ce's face was instantly displeased, and the air-conditioning all over his body made people feel dangerous that they dare not approach.
"Yes." Zitong replied, "Our people saw the Second Prince come out of the Seventh Prince's Mansion with a disappointed face, and our spies in the Seventh Prince's Mansion reported that the Seventh Prince had no other behavior that day. It seems that the Second Prince I didn’t get what I wanted.”
"Even Shangguan Shaochen didn't get it. It seems that the Seventh Prince has hidden it very deeply." Su Ce took a deep breath, thinking about something.
Soon, he asked, "Is there any news from Yintong?"
Zitong also sighed, "This morning Feige passed on the letter, Yintong said that Nangong Shizi also got nothing."
boom.
Su Ce slammed his fist heavily on the table, and his pretty brows were knit into a ball, "The Seventh Prince is really hiding everything, it seems that he has done a lot of things in the past few years in the fief, otherwise how could he even meet with Shangguan Shaochen?" They couldn't find his deathbed."
Zitong realized that the master might be about to make a move, "Master, are you still going to help them?"
"What Shangguan Shaochen can't get out doesn't mean I can't get it out either. I really want to see what kind of dragon's pool and tiger's den is in his Seventh Prince's Mansion..." Su Ce was still thinking of a way while talking, but his The voice stopped suddenly, and the piercing eyes immediately looked outside the door, "Who!"
Zitong immediately looked back, and sure enough, he saw a figure passing by outside the door, and he quickly chased it out.
Not long after, Zitong appeared in front of Su Ce with her head down and a woman in dejection.
"My son..."
"Why are you?" Su Ce obviously didn't expect that the person eavesdropping outside the door would be her.
Sighing, Su Ce told Zitong, "Go out first." After speaking, he looked at Mo Junyao who was standing in front of him, his eyes wide open, and he was not ashamed of eavesdropping, "This is the palace of the virtuous king, you As a princess of the Western Regions, eavesdropping on my king's conversation is a violation of the laws of my celestial dynasty, if I report it to the emperor, do you know the consequences?"
Mo Junyao didn't care about his questioning, but pushed him away and sat on the chair he had just sat on just now, with her arms folded, as if she was a hostess.
"Is there anything wrong with me coming to visit my future husband?" Mo Junyao raised her jaw arrogantly, "If I didn't come over suddenly, how would I know if you hid your love in the golden house in the mansion without telling me, but Fortunately, I came in time today, otherwise how would I know what you are going to do next?"
Mo Junyao's eccentric tone made her look unhappy when she looked at Su Ce, "What are you going to do? Who are you going to help? It's Ling Muer, right? The Second Prince and the Seventh Prince are enemies. You want to deal with the Seventh Prince." It must be helping the second prince, but she is someone else's fiancee, what are you still doing here? Su Ce, don't you think you are going too far!"
"I didn't expect you to know enough." Even the second prince and the seventh prince knew that they were enemies, and this princess of the Western Regions had already said that she was unusual.
"However, when does this king need you to tell me what to do!" Su Ce scolded angrily, "If you are not married, you will not be my virtuous concubine. Come, take the princess out and see off the guests!"
Mo Junyao was very dissatisfied with Su Ce's attitude towards her.
She opened her mouth wide and stared wide-eyed, and continued to sneer, "You... how could you treat me like this? Have you forgotten how you asked me to agree to marry you?"
