Helan Yi chased Yu Ling to the new city, but he was greeted by a table of rich dishes that had been cold, the person who was going to eat was no longer there, Yu Ling received an urgent report from the envoy of Zhao State, the emperor was critically ill, and the queen ordered her to be summoned back to China immediately.

Yu Ling originally walked alone, but Ye Buli didn't worry about her going alone, so he took Yingxue and went on the road with her, and when He Lanyi arrived in the new city, the three of them had already walked for several hours.

Helan Yi looked at the table of delicacies that had not moved his chopsticks, and could only sigh lightly after sitting down, only a few hours were missing, and they staggered like this.

When Yu Ling was leaving, she repeatedly asked Ye Buli to give an order, without her consent, no one was allowed to attack the people in Zizhuli, if Yinlan was killed, then, she would not forgive He Lanyi for the rest of her life.

After receiving such a message from his subordinates, Helan Yi sat in a daze for a long time, he didn't understand why Yu Ling wanted to give such an order, but he would not easily kill Yinlan, the woman he loved was not a vexatious person, she must have her reasons.

However, it is not a way to put Yinlan under house arrest in Xincheng, he must go back to Tiancheng to deal with national affairs, he has his responsibility on his shoulders, and he can't delay state affairs because of the love of his children, so he ordered to escort Yinlan to Longcheng to recuperate, in the entire Great Plains Kingdom, the only thing that can reassure him is Longcheng, which is his Helan Yi's territory, and all the people are loyal to him and will not do anything inappropriate behind his back.

Longcheng, his cousin Helan Yao under house arrest, his younger brother Helan Xue also stayed in Longcheng because he couldn't return to Tiancheng, and now there is one more Yinlan, who is really a bewitching and beautiful man in the city.

Packed up his mood, Helan Yi took a few henchmen and guards on the road, he wanted to rush back to Tiancheng as soon as possible, Helan Wen is a royal official, it is still possible to deal with the government for a few days on behalf of the imperial power, if it is a long time, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction, although the safety in the palace is the responsibility of Toba, but it is difficult to guarantee that someone will not poison Helan Wen.

Since ancient times, power and fame have been tempting things, some people do not hesitate to hurt others for these two things, and some people even kill each other for these two things, and he must not let the good-natured heavenly officials be harmed.

Cangnan was destroyed as a vassal, the war has subsided, the next thing he wants to do is to stabilize the government, he doesn't want to sit on the throne of the golden emperor, so he is only temporarily acting on behalf of his imperial brother to govern the country, this period is the most dangerous, but also the most powerful.

When he left the new city, he glanced back, imagining the difficulties that Ye Buli encountered when he led the Black Tiger Army to attack that day, and smiled slightly, his younger brother can already be in charge alone, and he will accompany Yu Ling back to Zhao Kingdom, no matter what happens to Zhao Kingdom, with him by Yu Ling's side, it will definitely be fine.

Some things don't happen if he thinks of them, sometimes, current events create people, standing on the cusp of the wind and waves, everyone has a time when they can't help themselves, and when he gets the news of Yu Ling ten days later, Yu Ling has become a more noble woman than his identity

Xincheng to Licheng, under the leadership of Ye Buli, under the wild rush of Yu Ling's heart like an arrow, it only took four days, in these four days, the three of them only rested for a few hours, day and night to Licheng, and waited for Yu Ling to see the queen Jin Lihua, his face was thin.

Jin Lihua saw Yu Ling, hugged her and cried sadly, and took him to the emperor's bedroom to meet, Yu Ling saw his biological father again, he was no longer human, and he hadn't seen him for a long time, Zhao Guofang's whole body was deflated, and his eyes were sunken into his sockets, like a dry corpse.

Since Yu Ling was ignorant, she has never called him a father, since she knew that he was her biological father, she never really identified with him in her heart, but when she saw him again, her legs involuntarily knelt down, tears slipped uncontrollably, and she knelt down step by step to the side of the dragon bed, and kowtowed respectfully three times.

"Father, my daughter is back." Holding Zhao Guofang's outstretched palm, it was dry and lusterless, as prohibitive as a chicken claw, but Yu Ling wrapped his hand tightly in the palm of his hand, and cried bitterly, without him, she would not have come to this world, no matter how much she resented him in her heart before, he was like this, there was no trace of resentment in her heart, and there was only remorse.

"Yu Ling......" Zhao Guofang's hoarse voice seemed to be stuffed with torn cotton wool, and he called her, his hands trembling, "Protect your queen mother." After saying this sentence with all his might, his whole body trembled, as if he had lost all his strength.

"I will protect the queen mother." Yu Ling nodded vigorously, "I will also protect my father, I'm sorry, father, it's my daughter who is unfilial, and my daughter shouldn't resent you." He buried his face in the palm of his hand and cried out loud, "My daughter will definitely cure her father's illness." ”

Zhao Guofang smiled with relief, tears slipped down from the corners of his eyes, he only felt guilty about Yu Ling in his heart, looking at the children under his name, who had come to see him, they were all kneeling far away, none of them dared to step forward and hold his hand, crying was crying, that was crying themselves, their emperor Lao Tzu was dead, and their good life was over.

There is no one who cries like Yu Ling's true feelings, all along, he thinks that the evil seed is his real daughter, and only she regards him as a father.

Tears of remorse fell happily, this life has experienced too many life and death situations, and now when he really wants to leave, he is accompanied by his beloved woman, and his beloved daughter is kneeling and crying, perhaps, this is his life.

"Queen Mother, what's going on?" Yu Ling held his hand tightly, refused to let go, turned his body, and asked Jin Lihua in a trembling voice, "I just left Yueyu, why did my father become like this?" ”

"Someone poisoned your father's soup, which was colorless and tasteless, and when he found it, his body had dried up, his whole body was weak, his voice was hoarse, and he couldn't say a complete sentence with all his might." Jin Lihua wiped her tears and said sadly, seeing Zhao Guofang's finger pointing at her abdomen, tears fell down, "Your Majesty, I will take care of my body, our child will definitely be born safely." Cover her mouth and don't let herself suffer, but when she saw her beloved man become like this, her heart hurt like a knife, and she always comforted herself that for the sake of the fetus in her womb, she must take care of her body, but every time she held the brocade quilt and cried until dawn.

"The queen mother is pregnant?" Yu Ling stood up in surprise and took her hand, "Queen Mother, don't cry anymore, let's find a way to cure our father's illness, what did the imperial doctors say?" ”

Jin Lihua shook her head and said disappointedly: "The doctor with the most medical skills in the Zhao Kingdom came to the palace to show the emperor, and the symptoms that appeared after poisoning were unheard of, I am afraid that it is not the poison of our Central Plains, I guess that the person who poisoned is aimed at the throne of our Zhao family, not the hand of the Zhao family, that is the hand of the enemy of the Zhao family, I dare not imagine that it is the hand of the closest person around the emperor......"

Speaking of which, Yu Ling also understood that she was talking about the woman in the palace who attacked her father in order to get the emperor's throne, and if her father died, the most likely successor to the throne would be the son of Concubine Jin.

"Feather Spirit succeeds to the throne!" Zhao Guofang shouted hoarsely again with all his might.

Yu Ling turned around and knelt down in front of him, holding his stiff hand, "Father, who will inherit the throne is not the most important thing, curing you is the first priority now." ”

However, Zhao Guofang seemed to know that his death was coming, grabbed her hand, squeezed it tightly, her lips were black and purple, she was panting, and her whole body trembled.

"You...... The Queen......"

As he said these three words, his whole body spasmed, his eyes rolled, and he lost consciousness.

"Father!" Yu Ling screamed, grabbed him, helped him to his feet, and shook him vigorously.

"Yu Ling, don't do this, it will hurt the emperor." Jin Lihua screamed and pounced, "He's still alive, he's still alive......" muttered to herself, but she was never afraid in her heart, she was afraid that he would never wake up after he fainted.

Yu Ling gritted his teeth and shouted loudly to the eunuch outside the door: "Bring a knife and a basin of water, and the basin will be filled with clean water." ”

As soon as he heard the knife, the palace maids and eunuchs outside the door were all stupid, trembling, and no one dared to move, this is the palace inside, except for the guards, whoever has a knife on his body is guilty of the great crime of the king's delusion.

"If you don't give me a knife, do you think the emperor will die like this?" Yu Ling shouted angrily, showing his shocking side in front of outsiders for the first time.

"Don't go yet." Jin Lihua shouted at the minions, "The words of the eldest princess are my will." ”

"Queen Mother, although I don't know medical skills, I once heard Uncle Feng Ning say that after being poisoned, let go of some poisonous blood first, look at the color, if it is completely black, then there is no help, if there is still red, then there is still salvation, everything in the world is restrained, and the poison on the father's body must have something to restrain each other."

"Okay, listen to you."

Yu Ling smiled at her slightly, asking her to feel at ease, even if she was frightened in her heart, but she must not show it, at this time, she also thought of Ye Buli, he is a native of Dayuan, maybe he knows this poison.

"Come on, go to the palace gate and bring Yingxue and Ye Bu over, give me respect, don't say a word of rudeness to them."

"Yes."

After the two eunuchs crawled to get knives and clear water, two more eunuchs trembled and ran to the palace gate to welcome Yingxue and Ye Buli into the palace.

If this was in Tiancheng, Ye Buli would have returned to the palace with Yu Ling and Yingxue, and no one would have dared to stop them from entering the palace, but this was Zhao Guo, it was in Licheng, and Yu Ling was blocked by the guards when she entered the palace, if she hadn't knocked down the two guards, the rest of the guards didn't plan to let her go in smoothly.

"Queen Mother, are the Praetorian Guards in the palace trustworthy?" At this point, the possibility of a rebellion in the Zhao Kingdom is very high, the palace is the first dangerous place, Yu Ling has to consider the safety of the queen, she is pregnant with a child, she must ensure that she is safe and sound to leave her brother or sister.

"Several generals in charge of the Praetorian Guard have been replaced by people from the Jin family, I sent someone to check, at present, the masters of the palaces and courtyards have no obvious actions, they are crying for the emperor's illness, for fear that the emperor will return to heaven, and they will have no way to live."

"Where's Concubine Jin?" Yu Ling's expression froze, "What is she doing?" ”

Jin Lihua didn't suspect her, but she couldn't catch her, "She has come to see the emperor several times, and has been staying in the palace to eat fast and chant Buddha, praying for the emperor to survive this catastrophe safely." ”

"Get her here." Glancing coldly at the minions outside the door, she made a decision in her heart, the more suspicious the more dangerous it is, this woman is crazy, she has known it since she was a child.

Jin Lihua was stunned for a moment and nodded, she was the one who inherited the throne of Zhao State, then, from now on, she is the master of this palace, and everything is subject to her will.

"Come on, go and invite Concubine Jin to come here, the emperor wants to see her."
