Chapter 48: Temptation
The fragrance of tea is overflowing, and Qingzhuxuan is still so quiet. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Your Majesty just gave a lot of rewards yesterday, and Lord Xiao sent these things again today, and my concubine and Ziyi don't know how to thank Lord Xiao." Xi Guiren said with a smile while pouring tea.
"The poor county lord lost his parents at a young age, it is inconvenient for the Xi nobles to live in this Qingzhuxuan with the county lord, I fell in love with the county lord, I can't bear to see the county lord suffer, and I should take more care of it."
"I only know that Lord Xiao is from Qi State, but I don't know where Lord Xiao's home is in Qi Country?"
Xiao Mo replied: "Shuiyun County, Xunzhou Prefecture." ”
Xi Guiren smiled gloomily: "Then Sui An should be far away." ”
"Noble Xi is from Sui'an?" Xiao Mo exclaimed.
"My sister and I are both from Sui An, and in this life, I'm afraid we won't be able to go back to our hometown." Xi Guiren sighed.
The sister that Xi Guiren said is Princess Ping, the two sisters came to Yanguo Handu from Sui An, one became a princess and the other became a concubine, although this matter seems incredible, but all this involves a person, and it becomes easy for Qi people to enter Yan Palace as concubines, just because Xi Guiren was sent to the palace by King Jing.
Xiao Mo turned his eyes to look at Ziyi, who was playing with Xiao Liu, and sighed: "I heard that King Ping has always been in good health, how can a good person say that it will be gone." ”
"Perhaps...... Maybe there was a hidden disease that I didn't find out. "The nobles of Xi are struggling.
Xiao Mo saw that her eyes were wandering, as if she was hiding something, Xiao Mo concluded in his heart that the noble Xi must know the truth, she was King Jing's person, and she would cover up King Ping's death like this, it seems that the truth is really related to King Jing.
"When King Ping was seriously ill, did he ever have a royal doctor to diagnose and treat him? What kind of emergency could it be so sudden? ”
Xi Guiren suddenly raised his head and looked at Xiao Mo, and there seemed to be a trace of vigilance in his eyes.
"Yes...... Did His Majesty ask Lord Xiao to ask? ”
She asked cautiously, as if she were tentative.
Such a question was unexpected, could it be that even Ling Tianxu didn't know what illness King Wen had? Or do you only know that it is an emergency, and you don't even know the words of the imperial doctor?
can hide the real cause of death of a prince on the grounds of an emergency, this ability to penetrate the sky, in Yan Kingdom, who else but Ling Hao has it.
"Lord Xiao, why did Your Majesty suddenly remember King Ping?"
Noble Xi was even more anxious to ask than Xiao Mo now, Xiao Mo faintly felt that Noble Xi was afraid that Ling Tianxu would find out the truth.
"It's not that Your Majesty meant, it's just that I saw Ziyi lonely and miserable, and I had some doubts in my heart." Xiao Mo said lightly.
Xi Guiren's nervous expression was relieved a little, and he said with heavy eyes: "Actually, it's good that Ziyi can be carefree now, and it is not a good thing for her to dwell on the past. ”
Whether it is beneficial to Ziyi or not to King Jing, Xiao Mo knows in her heart, she can only conclude that this matter is related to King Jing, but whether it is really King Jing who poisoned King Ping still needs to be investigated.
Although he knows people and faces, but for some reason, Xiao Mo vaguely feels that the King Jing he sees now is not a treacherous, arrogant and insidious person as he heard before.
But if it was found out that it was really Ling Hao's doing, she couldn't help but believe it.
Noble Xi kept it a secret, Xiao Mo had no way of knowing other clues, there may not be many people who knew the truth, but it must be more than just noble Xi who knew which imperial doctor was the one who diagnosed King Ping's pulse.
"Sixth Father-in-law, how could Your Majesty see the scene of King Ping's sudden emergency?" Xiao Mo asked.
"Your Majesty rushed over when he heard the news that King Ping was seriously ill, but when he went, King Ping was already ......"
"Then apart from Your Majesty, is there anyone else who has seen it?"
"Concubine Li is also here, the Queen Mother originally asked Concubine Li to stop Her Majesty from seeing that scene, but she didn't stop it."
Concubine Li, Xiao Mo weighed in his heart and wanted to find out what from Concubine Li, so it was even more impossible to knock Ling Tianxu on the side.
The sunset is drunk in the imperial city, and there has been no snow for a long time, and it looks like spring is approaching.
The hill next to Qingzhuxuan was inaccessible, just to loosen his muscles, Xiao Mo ran around the hill one after another.
Xiao Liu remembered Ling Tianxu's explanation, and wanted to follow him every step of the way, so he squatted aside and watched, he couldn't believe that this would be the weak woman that the master saved in the small county town that day, he had never seen that woman have such hard work.
When the sky darkened, Xiao Mo and Xiao Liu returned to Ziqing Palace.
Fang was sweating profusely, and Xiao Mo was trying to ask Xiao Liu to prepare for a hot bath.
"It's ready, let's go." Ling Tianxu said, glancing in the direction of the dormitory.
"That's for Your Majesty, how can I use Your Majesty's Imperial Pool."
Ling Tianxu raised his lips: "When I occupied the dragon bed, why didn't I think that there was a difference between monarchs and ministers. ”
"Poof" laughed, it wasn't Xiaoliu who was stealing the fun.
Xiao Mo hurriedly said: "That's your ......"
"Alright, let's go." Ling Tianxu said lightly.
Xiao Mo glanced at him and said coldly: "Bring your people and wait outside!" ”
"Command." Ling Tianxu said helplessly, turned around and walked outside the hall.
Xiao Liu followed behind, snickering, and admired Xiao Mo for a moment, Yan Guo up and down, can make His Majesty willing to be called around, except for Xiao Mo, there is no one else.
The smoke is curling, the aroma is thick, I don't know what kind of fragrance is added to this water, I have never smelled it.
Take off your clothes and sit down in the pool, the warmth is permeating, and the fragrance lingers to make people feel refreshed.
Xiao Mo casually raised his hand to pour water, setting off ripples, staring at the petals floating on the water......
"You don't want to ask something for Xu'er?"
"This is the land of my Yan Kingdom, only allow the Qi Kingdom to snatch it, not allow the Yan Kingdom to take it back, and give up the rivers and mountains, this is the way of Brother Wang's way of governing the country and assisting the monarch?"
"Then attack Sui An!"
The voice is still in my ears, is he the one with the wolf's ambition?
Xiao Mo couldn't help but feel ridiculous, not to mention that Ling Hao might be the mastermind who framed his father, now that he was attacking Qi State with the intention of attacking Sui An, he was the enemy of Qi State, shouldn't she hate him? But after seeing him a few times, he was inexplicably guilty in his heart.
After wrapping the place where it should be wrapped, Xiao Mo stood in front of the bronze mirror in his middle coat, and now he is not much shorter than in his previous life, but he does look much thinner.
As Xiao Mo was furious, the surrounding candles suddenly went out, and the hall suddenly became pitch black.
Xiao Mo turned around in a bit of a panic, the black lights around him were blind, and he couldn't see anything.
Suddenly, someone gently hugged his waist from behind, and Xiao Mo was stunned for a moment...... Dismayed......
"Your Majesty, this incense prepared by the concubine for Your Majesty, does Your Majesty like it?"
The voice...... It's Concubine Li!
Xiao Mo was stunned, Concubine Li, this is ...... Is this treating her as Ling Tianxu?
She didn't wear a mask, but fortunately the candle flame was extinguished, and at this time, Concubine Li must not be allowed to see that her face was not injured, otherwise it would inevitably be the crime of deliberately deceiving the Queen Mother.
"Your Majesty, the concubine knows that she is wrong, the concubine should not be unable to get along with Xiao Huwei, the concubine is confused for a while."
Concubine Li leaned lightly on her back, her hand still gently wrapped around her waist.
Being held by a woman like this but helpless, Xiao Mo was anxious and angry.
This woman is not stupid!
After entering the palace all these years, he couldn't even tell whether he was holding Ling Tianxu or someone else.
Ling Tianxu walked around the neighborhood, and when he returned to Ziqing Palace, he saw that there were many palace maids and inner eunuchs outside the door, and Xiao Liu was escorted in front of the door by several inner eunuchs, and his mouth was still blocked.
"Sixth father-in-law, don't struggle, when the mother finishes serving His Majesty, she will remember your goodness, and the reward is indispensable for you." Miao E smiled.
Miao'e looked at the hall, the master has been in for so long and has not been driven out, which means that His Majesty has probably accepted the master, and he couldn't help snickering, but when he turned around and saw Ling Tianxu with a blue face, he was so frightened: "The emperor ...... Your Majesty. ”
Miao'e hurriedly let Xiao Liu go, and the minions knelt down in a hurry.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Li has entered." Little Six Urgent.
Ling Tianxu was stunned when he heard this: "Oh no! Without saying more, he quickly stepped into the Ziqing Palace.
