Chapter 962: A Night of Sorrow

The old lady's eyes were full of soft color, "But the more he is like this, the more worried I am." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Situ Zhen outside stiffened, calmed down and listened to the conversation in the room.

"It's not a good thing to be too sensible, in fact, I never thought that Zhen'er would be able to be so good one day. I just taught him everything I learned and everything in life, but I didn't expect that he was talented and intelligent, and he was good at everything, but he was too old to become. ”

Old? Lan Ling couldn't help but think of the first time she saw Situ Zhen, she felt that he was a dead face! He looks good, but he has to put on the kind of expression that others owe him thousands of taels of silver, even if he laughs, it makes him feel as if he is calculating something.

The eldest brother also said that the prime minister is an old fox!

"It's supposed to be the age of playing, but he is familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics in the study, and he can already memorize it backwards, but he always says that he doesn't understand it thoroughly enough." Therefore, she has always felt that Zhen'er must have been born in a scholarly family, and she doesn't know what happened to her to live on the streets.

That bookish atmosphere is not something that ordinary children can have.

Lan Ling couldn't help but think of when she was a child, when she mentioned reading, she felt uncomfortable, and she was only happy when she held a sword and a gun.

"Miss Lan, do you know what Zhen'er has been thinking about lately?" The old lady was really relieved, but she knew that Situ Zhen would never mention it to her, so she just inquired from Lan Ling.

"This ...... The affairs of the DPRK and China are complicated, and there are always some problems that are more or less difficult to solve. She also wanted to know what happened to Situ Zhen, in the past few years that he has been prime minister, only others have suffered losses, how can anyone make him feel bad.

The old lady sighed lightly, "If I am not here in the future, I hope Miss Lan can be by Zhen'er's side." This boy doesn't know how to talk sweetly, and maybe he doesn't care much about the girl's family, but I believe that he will give everything he can. After all, his temperament can't be changed, and that's why he's not good. ”

"......" Lan Ling couldn't help but blush, knowing that the old lady had misunderstood her and Situ Zhen, and this scene had to continue. But just by imagining the days with Situ Zhen, she felt a chill in her back.

In the old lady's opinion, Situ Zhen is impeccable except for her incomprehension and stubbornness.

After talking so much to Miss Lan, the old woman felt much better. If Miss Lan could accompany the old woman every day in the future, maybe the disease would soon be cured. ”

As soon as these words came out, Lan Ling immediately subconsciously reached out and grabbed the back of the old lady's hand, "The old lady's illness will definitely be cured!" If Situ Zhen dares to bully me in the future, the old lady will be able to make decisions for Ling'er! ”

As soon as the words fell, Lan Ling regretted a little, what was she talking nonsense? She just hoped that the old lady would recover quickly, and she couldn't see the other party suffering. It's not because I have any thoughts about Situ Zhen, absolutely not!

"Okay, good, with me, Zhen'er doesn't dare to bully your ......"

Outside the window, the man lowered his eyes slightly, and then quietly disappeared into the wind.

The old housekeeper looked at the open window and door of the study, and the man inside was sitting in front of the desk flipping through the books, and finally left with a smile of relief. The adults finally stayed in the house and didn't go out, and I believe that everything will be on track soon.

In the evening.

"My lord, the old lady said that she wanted to have dinner with Miss Lan today."

The movements in Situ Zhen's hand paused slightly, and he just responded lightly.

That girl, the kung fu of coaxing the elders is really first-class, and she actually let her mother ignore him. Thinking of this, a wry smile appeared on Situ Zhen's face. But as long as the mother can be happy, it doesn't hurt to let the girl stay a few more days.

After a few days of hard work, so much copywriting on his desk has piled up. In the past few years as an official, he has never slacked off like this, and today he has been reviewing for several hours in a row, and he really tastes the taste of asking for hardship.

As for the Emperor's side, Situ Zhen has not yet decided. He hates being toyed with and applauded the most, but it is obvious that the Emperor Taishang has been examining whether he is qualified to be his pawn all these years, and now, his ability has been affirmed, should the Emperor Taishang think that he will be grateful to him, right?

Take one step at a time, and when it comes to Tai Chi kung fu, I am no worse than anyone else.

Situ Zhen didn't expect that after just explaining to his mother once, his mood suddenly brightened, and he was not as anxious and depraved as before, his mother was not only his benefactor, but also his mentor. Although God took away all his relatives, he gave him an incomparably great and excellent mother, which was his luck.

The man who hadn't smiled for a long time had the corners of his mouth slightly raised at this moment, and the pen he had stopped continued to move.

There was a quiet sound of insects chirping outside the window, Lan Ling looked at the old lady's face gradually falling asleep, smiled with relief, and carefully pulled the brocade quilt for her.

The strange thing is that I don't feel tired all day sitting on the couch. After chatting with the old lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion for so long, I feel that she really knows everything. is obviously a woman, but she knows so much, and it is difficult for such a person not to teach a child like Situ Zhen.

Moreover, she also listened to many things about Situ Zhen when she was a child, and she felt happy when she thought about it.

Lazily stretched, Lan Ling blew out the candle flame and retreated quietly.

Today, I have mastered a lot of Situ Zhen's handles, how to make good use of them? In the future, if he dares to bully his eldest brother again, he will tell all the things he has done in the past, and see if he dares to be so arrogant!

At this time, Lan Ling seemed to remember something, "Oops, I forgot to close the window for the old lady!" ”

Now the old lady's body is not good for cold, thinking of this, Lan Ling immediately turned back.

There was a strange movement in the quiet room, Lan Ling's keen brows frowned, and the next second, she actually saw the bodies of several guards in the corner.

"Who's in the house?!" She pushed the door open and saw a man standing beside the dimly lit couch.

"Who?!"

A silver light flashed, and the other party flew out of his sleeve with a hidden weapon and shot at Lan Ling. She narrowly escaped with a turn, and immediately shouted, "There are assassinsβ€”"

"Blue Maiden?" This movement finally woke up the old lady on the couch, and the man in black immediately changed his target, drew his long sword and was about to slash at the woman on the couch.

"Stop!"

Picked up the wooden bench on the side and flew away, only to hear a bang, the man's martial arts were so strong that he kicked and shattered, and the sawdust was scattered all over the place. Lan Ling, who was going to sneak attack, had already rushed in front of him, not wanting that the other party had already anticipated her intentions, so she slapped Lan Ling on the chest with heavy internal force, and a painful muffled snort came, and the woman immediately flew out and fell heavily to the ground.

"Miss Lan, leave me alone, let's go!"

There was an instant coldness from the neck, the long sword in the hand of the man in black fell, the old lady's eyes froze, and Lan Ling looked at the scene in horror, "No-you, you actually dare-"

The woman on the couch had already fallen, and the man in black saw that Lan Ling was actually struggling to get up from the ground, and sneered at the moment, "I can't do it!" ”

Old lady ...... She didn't protect the old lady! Lan Ling gritted her teeth and endured the fishy sweetness in her throat and attacked the man in black again, she was seriously injured, and her movements were extremely stiff at this moment.

"You will die with this old woman!"

The long sword stabbed at Lan Ling's abdomen accurately, piercing her body, not wanting the other party to make a backhand, he actually ripped off the black cloth on his face, and the unfamiliar face immediately appeared in front of him.

Candlelight soon lit up in the courtyard, and several guards rushed towards it.

"Not allowed...... Walk! ”

The other party drew his long sword, taking Lan Ling's flesh and blood with him. But the woman grabbed him by the ankle with great tenacity, and by this moment the guard had rushed to the door of the house.

The man in black gritted his teeth, and he didn't care about entanglement with Lan Ling, and immediately kicked her in the face, and the powerful impact shocked the woman's brain, and she immediately fainted.

The black shadow jumped out of the house, Situ Zhen came with the people and horses, the corpse of the guard at the door and the voice of Fang Cai made his heart rise with a thick uneasiness, "Chase!" ”

"Ahh Miss Blue! ”

There were bursts of exclamations from inside the house, and Situ Zhen's heart sank and stepped in, at this moment the candle flame had already illuminated the entire room, and the bright red blood stains on the ground and on the wall were shocking.

The old lady hung half of her body outside the couch, and there was a deep blood-colored wound on her neck, and Lan Ling had completely fallen in a pool of blood.

"Mother's ......"

There was no breath left in the body that was still warm, Situ Zhen trembled and hugged her tightly in his arms, the heart-rending pain was blocked in his throat, he was late...... It was he who was careless! He......

"My lord, Miss Lan is seriously injured, I'm afraid of ......"

"No, save her! Be sure to save her! "That girl was poisoned in order to save her mother, and she must not be allowed to die because of this!

Carefully put the woman in her arms back on the couch, Situ Zhen only felt that everything seemed to be in a dream. He slowly moved to Lan Ling, who was already surrounded by everyone, and looked down at the bloodstained little face, and his heart suddenly ached.

Remembering everything that happened today, remembering the smile she made her mother smile.

Situ Zhen took a deep breath and squatted down to pick her up.

"Bring all the Imperial Doctors!"

"Yes!"

Today's Prime Minister's Mansion is as oppressive and terrifying as purgatory, the room is filled with a strong smell of blood, the old lady's house has been guarded by everyone, and on the side, blood and water are constantly being brought out.

"Xiangye, let that person run away, but his subordinates found such a thing."

The guards who had gone after the murderer came back with a waist tag.

The golden waist plate is clearly engraved with the word "royal", as if I want everyone to know that he is the royal forest army in the palace.

Situ Zhen stared at this waist card and pulled it tightly in his palm.

So, is His Majesty going to kill his mother? However, when people escaped, they carelessly left behind such evidence?

"Hehe, haha......" A strange laugh came from the man's body.
