Ling Ruo was not moved when he heard this, and still said with a calm expression: "I can't see that Imperial Physician Liu is so loyal to the queen, but this palace still feels very strange, since he is so loyal, why didn't Imperial Physician Liu tell the queen about Sister Ling and let her help you tide over the difficulties?" ”

Imperial Physician Liu hung his head and was silent, Ling Ruo said that he didn't think about it, and he also knew that the Nala clan relied on him now, and he would definitely not refuse people, but he didn't know why, he didn't want to open this mouth to the Nala clan. Perhaps, I have always been afraid of this queen who has superb means and can even cut off her own flesh ruthlessly; Although they are involved because of their interests at the moment, they don't want to involve their families.

"Does Imperial Physician Liu not know how to answer or dare not answer? Do you want Hongu to answer for you? Without waiting for Imperial Physician Liu to speak, she had already said word by word: "Because you are afraid, afraid that one day the birds will be hidden and the rabbits will die and the dogs will be cooked!" ”

Ling Ruo's words pierced into Imperial Doctor Liu's ears like a needle, making him sit still, and at the same time, he also understood that in terms of the delicacy of his thoughts, the concubine in front of him was afraid that she would not lose to the queen at all.

The smile widened on Ling Ruo's face, and he said again: "What, Imperial Doctor Liu, is there something wrong in this palace?" ”

Imperial Physician Liu smiled helplessly, thinking that he couldn't fight these masters in the harem, so he had to give up his hand and say, "What does Niangniang want?" ”

Ling Ruo wiped the leisure on his face, and said, "There is only one requirement for this palace, that is, you are loyal to this palace." ”

"It's an honor for Weichen to be valued by Niangniang, but Niangniang should know that this is impossible." Imperial Physician Liu shook his head, it's not that he is loyal to the Nala clan, but he really doesn't dare to do this kind of treacherous thing, he clearly sees the methods and courage of the Nala clan, she can be so cruel to herself, let alone a betrayer. Therefore, in the face of Ling Ruo's solicitation and kindness, he could only politely refuse. As for whether he will offend Concubine Xi because of this, he can't take care of a lot, in the palace, if he wants to be exquisite in all directions, he can't offend anyone, it's too difficult and too difficult.

Ling Ruoyao sat down in the chair and said indifferently: "This palace has always thought that Imperial Doctor Liu is a smart person who knows practice, but now it seems that it is nothing more than that. ”

Liu Hua suppressed the curiosity in her heart, didn't answer her words, and only said: "If Niangniang has no other instructions, Weichen will retire first, as for the silver, as long as Weichen gets it, he will immediately return it to Niangniang." ”

Ling Ruo watched him leave coldly, and after Liu Hua stepped over the threshold, a cold voice slowly sounded in this hot summer day, "Since your family accepted the thousand taels of silver, you have been unable to draw a clear line with the palace, and now that you talk about this, don't Imperial Doctor Liu think it's ridiculous?" ”

Liu Hua's body stiffened, and his other foot seemed to be filled with lead, and he couldn't lift it up, and after a long time, he retracted his steps, turned around and said weakly: "Weichen said that he would try his best to return the silver to Niangniang." ”

Ling Ruo shook his head, revealing the sword that had been hidden for a long time in Liu Hua's increasingly pale face, "It's useless, as long as this palace tells the queen about this, according to the queen's xingzi, she will definitely think that you have betrayed her, even if you pay off the silver now, it is useless, she will definitely not believe you again!" ”

Liu Hua's face was like ashes, and his whole body was trembling, Ling Ruo was right, once the matter was revealed, the queen would immediately turn from the current reliance to resentment towards him. At that point, he who offended both the queen and Concubine Xi would never have a good life. If it's just him, I'm afraid that even his family won't be able to escape this disaster at that time.

"Niangniang, why do you want to put Weichen to death, Weichen is just an insignificant imperial doctor." Liu Hua's mouth was full of bitterness.

"You're wrong, this palace is not going to kill you, on the contrary, this palace is to save you." Ling Ruo's words were extremely ridiculous to Imperial Physician Liu, but the next words made Imperial Physician Liu's expression gradually become solemn, "Do you think that the queen trusts and relies on you now, and will always treat you well in the future?" Wrong, that's just a skin with the tiger, the tiger still needs you at the moment, so he promised to lend you the tiger skin, and when you are useless, the tiger will not hesitate to swallow you into the belly, never in the future. ”

"If the queen is a tiger, then the mother is not a wolf!" Liu Hua never dreamed that one day, he would say that she was a wolf in front of Concubine Xi.

"Bold, dare to be so disrespectful to the mother!" Ling Ruo didn't say anything, but Shui Xiu couldn't help but scold, and then said: "Niangniang Bodhisattva has a heart, and has always been kind to others, but you use the evil wolf as a metaphor for Niangniang, it's a big rebellion!" ”

"Out of the way." Ling Ruo waved his hand and said with an indifferent smile: "This palace never thinks that he is a bodhisattva, because such a person is destined to not survive in the palace; But in the same way, this palace never thinks that it is a vicious person, and whoever is loyal to this palace, this palace will definitely do its best to protect it. ”

Liu Hua wanted to refute her words, but when she thought of Mo Er and Nanqiu, her voice was drowned in her tongue, these two people couldn't have survived, but they both miraculously escaped their lives, and there was no doubt that Concubine Xi played a key role in it.

After saying these words, Ling Ruo clapped his palms and said, "Okay, what should be said and what should not be said, this palace has already said it, as for how to choose, it depends on Imperial Doctor Liu himself, this palace hopes that your decision will not be regretted." ”

Imperial Physician Liu was standing at the door, because the door of the temple had just been opened by him, so the heat waves were surging one after another, devouring the coolness on his body at the same time, it also made him suffer.

Ling Ruo knew that Imperial Physician Liu was bound to be at war between heaven and man at this moment, so he didn't urge, sipped tea and waited slowly. She believes that as long as you have a little brain, you should know what kind of decision is the best. The reason why it was so difficult for Imperial Physician Liu to decide was because he was afraid to take that unknown step.

However, since Imperial Physician Liu attaches so much importance to his sister, I believe that he will not want the family members who have just been reunited to be implicated because of him.

In this way, after more than a cup of tea, and even the shadows of the trees on the ground have shifted slightly, Imperial Doctor Liu knelt on the ground weakly, kowtowed numbly, and said: "Weichen is willing to serve the mother and the horse." ”

Ling Ruo got up, and personally helped Imperial Doctor Liu up with a smile on her face, "Very good, after all, this palace didn't tell you so much in vain." ”

As soon as Imperial Physician Liu straightened up, he knelt down again, and said in a deep voice: "I beg Niangniang to protect Weichen and be thoughtful." If the queen wants to take revenge, even if there are ten Liu Hua, it will not be enough to die, only Ling Ruo can protect him from this dangerous catastrophe.
