Bai Yi bowed in the spring breeze:

"Weichen, thank Emperor Longen."

A few families rejoice and a few sorrows,

Fortunately, it has finally come to an end.

The news of Yuan Ruiming's return to the palace was quickly spread after the Empress Dowager issued an edict to lift the palace ban and withdraw the officers and soldiers from the palace. It became the best way to suppress rumors, and it also stopped the panic of the people in the front and back harem.

Many courtiers were glad they hadn't done anything unwise,

Among them, the most important thing is to burn high incense and pray to God and worship Buddha,

It was those courtiers who were originally neutral and almost took refuge in Ling Xiang this time.

In addition to the emperor's return to the court, what happened in the Taihe Palace is also spreading, it stands to reason that the palace people will not know about the retreat, the only possibility is that someone deliberately spread it.

It won't be the Ling family themselves, and it goes without saying who is behind the scenes.

Before the father and son returned home, there was no way for Ling Xiang to ignore and spread rumors, and because of the emperor's tolerance, he only punished him for disaster relief; How did Ling Yugui lose his military power in an instant, and even such an important force as the imperial capital guard was handed over.

The streets and alleys are painted with sound and color,

The officials of the same dynasty are gloating about the schadenfreude of the Ling family, who cover the sky with one hand, will also have today,

jokingly saying that Ling Xiang has become a tiger without minions is not to be feared, which makes Ling Xiang's reputation not as good as before.

Ling Xiang has been in the limelight for most of his life,

How can you endure such gossip, the ridicule of being poked in the backbone, and the unwillingness and frustration because the power that flew away from your hands one step away, as well as the extreme resentment towards Yuan Ruiming.

All the moods are mixed together,

finally broke out at the moment when he got out of the carriage and saw the plaque of his prime minister's mansion,

I covered my chest and coughed violently several times, and when I coughed until my throat and eyes were fishy, I suddenly couldn't breathe, and my eyes were dark.

Straight and fainted.

***

Slowly open your eyes,

Ling Xiang only felt that his whole body was as weak as cotton, and he opened his mouth, but he couldn't speak. It was the first time he had experienced the powerlessness of old age in himself.

The maid who came in to deliver the medicine saw that the maid's eyes opened, but she looked at the top curtain in a daze, and hurriedly called out in surprise:

"The Prime Minister is awake, General, General."

Listen only to the sound of footsteps coming from the porch,

Ling Yugui was overjoyed when he heard that Ling Xiang had finally woken up, and when he stepped on the threshold, he said: "Father can be regarded as awake, just now I am still reprimanding those imperial doctors, if I don't see my father well, I want them to come to see him." ”

Ling Xiang was silent for a moment,

"The only one who can take the life of the imperial doctor is the emperor, you are a general who has been cut off from military power, it is better to be cautious."

The meaning of the words,

Obviously, I can't let go of the past.

"Stand down, all of you."

Ling Yu commanded, and after the maids in the room retreated and closed the door, he couldn't help but sigh, helped Ling Xiang up, half sat and half leaned aside, and he took the medicine bowl and persuaded while feeding the medicine:

"The doctor said that my father has been working hard for a long time and is angry and angry, and he will faint when he is injured, although it is not serious, but he needs to carefully recuperate. Don't think too much about the rest, there is a son in everything, and the son will guard the Ling family. ”

"You?"

Ling Xiang smiled bitterly in his heart,

If it had been useful to have children, it would not have come to such a field.

"For most of his life, when he was proud, the old man never knew what it was to become ill from hard work, and he had never had such a sudden feeling of exhaustion; Who knows that once he is frustrated, he will deceive people and come to the door for everything. ”

A bowl of medicine to take,

Ling Xiang closed his eyes and breathed, and his spirit slowly recovered, and he laughed at himself.

"If my father doesn't feel frustrated, he shouldn't be frustrated. Besides, although the plan failed, it was a pity to miss out on the throne. But the emperor is still afraid of relying on his father, even if he knows that all this is what we did, what if he dares, does he have the ability to punish his father, and he still swallows his anger and treats it as if he doesn't know? ”

"Of course, the emperor can't attack the old man, but if you lose those 80,000 soldiers and horses, can you act as if nothing happened!"

Eighty thousand is not a big number,

But they are all elite soldiers stationed inside and outside the imperial city, and it is also the reason why Ling Xiang tried his best to leave Ling Yu in the imperial capital, and mastering these 80,000 elite soldiers is equivalent to controlling the palace.

is so crucial,

And now that he is giving it to others, he still gives Bai Yi that sworn enemy, how can he be willing.

At the mention of this, Ling Yugui also held a breath of anger in his heart,

But any complaining words can't tell Ling Xiang about this, so he can only suppress his anger and comfort Ling Xiang and himself:

"The father doesn't have to think too much, it's only 80,000, and the remaining 100,000 is still firmly in the hands of his son. What's more, he only knew that his father was sick, and the emperor was busy sending his father-in-law to send a lot of medicinal materials over, in addition to the ginseng snow lotus lingzhi, there are many that have never been seen, saying that it is some heat clearing and detoxification, tonifying essence and body. He pointed to the table with his chin, and said in a mocking tone of Yuan Ruiming: "The front foot punished the back foot to show goodwill, and took away my military power, and one day he will inevitably be obediently sent back." ”

"You can think about it, and you still have such confidence."

Ling Xiang sighed and shook his head.

Suddenly, his eyes moved to the box covered with a red cloth:

"You just said something about the medicinal herbs that you haven't seen before, but you have carefully examined them."

If he really wants to reward, it is naturally to reflect his nobility and nourishing habits, how can there be some reason to give some little-known and not necessarily symptomatic medicines, he vaguely felt that maybe there was a deep meaning.

"My son doesn't know this, so if my father wants to see me, I'll bring it."

Ling Yugui brought the three boxes,

Place on a table in front of the couch.

Ling Xiang looked at the wooden box, and it was really all fried Chinese medicinal herbs, exuding a slight smell, and it was also because of this that Ling Yugui had no idea of touching it at all.

And these medicines, there is nothing wrong with it, but if you pay more attention, you can see that there is a small brand in each medicine box.

What is written above should be the name of the medicine.

Ling Xiang picked it up and looked at it, but his expression immediately changed, and his eyes sank, with a hint of danger.

After reading the other two signs, the person who was relieved seemed to be angry again, his face was pale, and his chest rose and fell violently.

"It's just disgusting!"

A handful overturned the pillbox,

He threw the sign to the ground with a crisp sound.

"What's wrong with my father, what's wrong with these medicines, the emperor will not be poisonous."

"Don't dare to poison the body, but the poisonous heart is the most suitable."

After Ling Xiang said that, he coughed a few more times, as if he was going to cough out his internal organs, but his eyes kept staring at the medicinal herbs scattered all over the place, revealing incomparable hatred.
