Chapter 67: The End
Ever since she was angry with her son that day, Lord Yanlan always felt uncomfortable in her heart. It may be the reason why I am old, and the evil I did when I was young will have retribution. The most powerful person in the Northern Qi Kingdom now felt a deep uneasiness, always feeling that his body was being hollowed out, and he didn't know which day it would disappear.
So he is very anxious now, worried that if he leaves this world, no one will be able to protect his children, and no one will be able to achieve his wishes.
After the wind picked up in the evening, Lord Yanlan put on a cloak and stood at the window. This house on the outskirts of Jingcheng is unknown to anyone, and it is the last resting place he left for himself. But on this day, he made an appointment with an important person. No, it was someone who was important to the future of his Yanlan family.
"My lord, Meng Zhang's business has arrived."
The housekeeper came to report, and Lord Yanlan looked at the moonlight that was blocked by dark clouds, and moved the corners of her lips.
"Call him in."
The housekeeper went to ask Meng in charge. Tai Hospital Meng is in charge, and the current situation is naturally from the Yanlan family, but at this time, he suddenly received a secret order from Lord Yanlan, which made him feel a little puzzled.
"The villain is see Shousuke-sama."
Meng Zhangshi respectfully greeted him, and Lord Yanlan waved his hand,
"Master Meng doesn't have to be polite, sit down."
There was only one lamp lit in the room, and Meng Zhangshi couldn't see Lord Yanlan's expression clearly. But he could still see his raised arm, pointing to the seat directly opposite him.
"Master Xie."
Meng Zhangshi walked over and sat down gently, and finally saw Lord Yanlan's face hidden in the darkness clearly. It's different from every meeting before. I could feel his inner determination from Lord Yanlan's face, and there was a trace of tiredness that could not be ignored.
"Meng Zhangshi, I've always felt very tired lately. I feel like I'm dying. ”
"My lord, what are you talking about? The adult's body bones are good, but I've been a little tired lately, so it's not in the way. Wait for tomorrow the villain to prescribe you a few tonics, just drink it. ”
Meng Zhangshi replied to Lord Yanlan's words with a smile, although he himself knew that Lord Yanlan definitely didn't want to hear this.
"Hehe, who won't be old, can they still be alive? Now, I just want to do everything I need to do before I die. ”
Meng Zhangshi heard a little tired, but still,
"You don't have to think about these things yet, you're still old."
"Meng is in charge, there is no need to say more."
Lord Yanlan suddenly straightened up and looked at Meng Zhangshi opposite him with a straight face.
"Let's get rid of that person in the near future."
Meng Zhangshi looked at Lord Yanlan with a surprised expression, and he didn't know what to say with his mouth open. But in the end, he lowered his head slightly,
"Yes, sir."
Lord Yanlan felt a little more comfortable when she heard this, and gently leaned back on the chair and breathed a sigh of relief.
After a few days of turnover, the letter from Nanhou finally arrived in Chang Gui's hand.
Since the queen woke up, Chang Gui can be said to be by his side day and night, not that he thinks, but that the queen can't do without him. Therefore, the last person to handle the letter was Lotus, and Lotus took it to the queen's bedroom to give it to Chang Gui.
After nightfall, Lotus settled the emperor and went to find Chang Gui with the letter. When I got there, I found Xiao Lizi guarding under the porch.
"Aunt Lotus is here, I don't know what happened to Aunt Flower?"
Xiao Lizi saw the lotus coming from a distance, and greeted the lotus without waiting for the lotus to walk in.
"Help me call Chang Gui's father-in-law."
"The queen hasn't slept yet, the eldest duke is still with her, so it's better to tell the little one if there is anything wrong with the aunt."
Xiao Lizi said with a smile, but he was laughing coldly in his heart. After the queen woke up, she couldn't leave Chang Gui, she had to serve Chang Gui for everything, and even when she was sleeping, she had to be by Chang Gui's side to sleep. He couldn't hold a grudge in his heart, and he regretted why he left the room at that time to leave him a chance, so now his heart was full of hatred towards Lotus.
Lotus wanted to come back later, but Xiao Lizi refused to spare her, and then said,
"To say that our regular father-in-law is really a good skill, can make the queen trust him so much."
Xiao Lizi deliberately said the word 'trust' in a weird way, even if the lotus was simple, he heard something wrong at this time. She looked at Xiao Lizi with cunning eyes, which was even more frightening at night.
"I, I."
Just when Lotus didn't know what to say, the door opened, and Chang Gui came out of it.
Lotus looked at Chang Gui and felt Chang Gui's exhaustion. I want to ask him out loud if he's okay, and go to be preempted by Xiao Lizi.
"Grand Duke, you have worked hard. Aunt Lotus is here. ”
Xiao Lizi put away the dark expression when facing the lotus flower, and changed to a face full of respect to greet him. Chang Gui held his forehead and looked at the lotus, thinking that there should be something, otherwise the lotus would not take the initiative to find him.
"Xiao Lizi, you go in and serve the queen, I told the mother."
Xiao Lizi's eyes widened as if he had heard something rewarding, and after thanking Chang Gui, he went in and closed the door. The queen was already a little sleepy, so there should be no problem for him to leave at this time. So after hearing the voice of the lotus, he reported to the queen that he wanted to take a rest, and the queen was sleepy in a daze and agreed.
Chang Gui walked down the steps, and Lotus hurriedly caught up with him and held on carefully.
"It's up to something."
While walking, Chang Gui asked in a low voice. Lianhua just wanted to say, but Chang Gui shook his head at her. Lotus didn't speak, just nodded.
The two of them walked under the palace wall in the middle of the night, and the lotus flower supported Chang Gui, not daring to breathe. Chang Gui felt that this was very good, and even felt that the fatigue on his body was much less. After a gust of wind blew, Chang Gui even felt that his whole body was relaxed, and he didn't know when there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.
After finally arriving at Zhengyang Palace, Chang Gui first went to the emperor's frequent point to take a look at the sleeping emperor, and after making sure that there was nothing wrong, he asked Lotus to help him back to his room.
As soon as he sat down, Chang Gui couldn't wait to ask.
"Lotus, what's the matter?"
Lotus went into the inner room and took out a small wooden box from the side of Chang Gui's pillow.
"There was a letter from my godfather."
Chang Gui took the box and didn't open it in a hurry, but first read the letter that Gong Zhu gave him.
'Chang Gui, hand over this box to the queen.
Don't reveal your identity.
Pay attention to the safety of the emperor.
Also, you have to pay more attention to yourself. ’
Chang Gui carefully checked the wooden box in his hand, and opened it to see that there was a letter and a pure white hosta inside. Chang Gui picked up the hosta and looked at it carefully, it looked like it should be something from the Northern Qi Kingdom, but the style was a little old.
Without thinking too much, he put the hosta back again, and after burning Gong Zhu's letter, he planned to go to sleep. Lotus helped him to the bed and covered him with a quilt. Chang Gui was also extremely sleepy, and he fell asleep without asking Lotus to leave.
Lotus put the wooden box back on Chang Gui's pillow and put it away, and then was about to leave, but just about to open the door, she heard Chang Gui's snoring. After hesitating, Lotus did not open the door, but sat down at the table, not planning to go out.
