Even if the emperor only came quietly once a month or two, Xue Ling was very satisfied, and the time with his mother was never dull. It is precisely because of the purity of the cold palace that his childhood is much less gloomy, and the only thing that makes Xue Ling regret for her mother is her biological daughter, Princess Wenxin, but she did not grow up by her side.

Qin Yan taught him to read and break sentences, teach others to be sophisticated, teach him to always have compassion, and teach him how to protect himself in the palace with heavy walls and locks.

This harmonious and beautiful thing ends on that day when the decree comes down like a thunderbolt from the sky.

On that day, just like any sunny May day, the peonies planted by the people in the courtyard were also blooming as well as they were now.

At that time, Princess Wenxin was lured into the Jinshu Pavilion, and when she came out again, she was already crazy, and Qin Yan was grief-stricken when she learned about it, and she couldn't afford to get sick.

Xue Ling remembered that his father had come less and less since then, and once it took half a year, but in the end, what he was waiting for was a document to kill Qin Yan.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said, according to the official Zhao,

Chen and others said that Qin Guifei was jealous of the queen's favor and repeatedly harmed her, but she was the first offender and relegated to the cold palace, but Qin's poisonous woman intensified, intending to make witchcraft seduce and murder the emperor. ”

Qin Yan, who was lying on the mattress, was allowed not to kneel, and Xue Ling took the golden silk silk that weighed 10,000 catties for her.

The poisonous woman in the mouth of the eunuch, murdered, committed suicide, Xiao Xue Ling heard every word of the heart.

"The mother concubine is not that kind of person, they must have made a mistake, I will go to my father to intercede!"

Xue Ling saw that Qin Yan on the bed was expressionless and lifeless, and his heart became even more anxious.

"Ling'er, don't go!" Qin Yan climbed out of bed and tried to grab Xue Ling, but Xue Ling flicked his sleeves and disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving Qin Yan alone to sobble in the empty room.

That day, God seemed to have sensed Xue Ling's despair, and it rained heavily with him.

Outside Xue Fengying's palace, there was a weak figure kneeling, the rain was pouring down, Xue Ling knelt for half the night, and almost fainted several times, but he still gritted his teeth with strong perseverance and let the little eunuch who guarded the door pass the words again and again, and several eunuchs came to persuade him three times and twice, wanting to pull Xue Ling away, he struggled, and kicked his hands and feet to prevent anyone from touching him.

Xue Fengying finally didn't see him, and Xue Ling finally fainted from exhaustion.

When I woke up again, I was alone in the room, and there was no longer Qin Yan's busy figure next to the bed, with a pleasant voice.

Xue Ling dragged his sick body and ran out, there was a horse leather under the plane tree, which seemed to be wrapped in people, and the palace maid beside him whispered to him, "Little prince, don't go over, the concubine has drunk poisonous wine, and everyone stinks." ”

"Mother! No! Xue Ling pushed the little palace maid away and wanted to run over, but several subordinates joined forces to hug him, no matter how he roared, gritted his teeth, and struggled.

"You bad people, get out of the way, I don't want you! I just want my mother! ”

"Don't go, concubine, Ling'er is obedient, I don't want you, I don't want ......"

For countless nights later, Xue Ling woke up crying alone, but when he woke up from the dream, he was even more lonely, and now he is still alone.

Even though the emperor gave him the title of prince early in order to compensate him, Xue Ling made up his mind at that time that the two people he hated the most in his life were the ruthless emperor and the ruthless queen.

Thinking about it, Qin Guifei still said goodbye, Shen Yu woke up from the soft bed in the guest room early the next morning, the four corners of the quilt were tucked well, and for no reason he felt a burst of warmth in his heart.

Only the wooden mask worn by Aunt Qin at the bedside reminded her that last night's encounter was not a big dream.

Shen Yu picked up the mask, the style was a light fox face, very simple and good-looking.

"Girl, are you alright?" There was a knock on the door, as if the effect of the medicine had expired, and the people in Lingwang's Mansion were about to wake up one after another.

"It's fine."

Shen Yu put down his mask, got up and washed up briefly and went to King Ling's bedroom.

"The girl is awake."

As soon as he entered the door, Lin Li came up to talk, Shen Yu ignored him, crossed him and opened the bead curtain, Xue Ling was leaning against the head of the bed, and seemed to be drinking a bowl of soup and medicine in his hand.

Seeing Shen Yu come in, he took out a free hand and patted the side of the bed, but said, "The girl sits casually." ”

Shen Yu looked at him with a healthy flush on his face, and remembered all the things yesterday, she couldn't understand why the two of them were alive, but they couldn't meet each other when they were worried about each other, and they didn't even let each other know their life or death.

"Yesterday's dinner made people drugged, and the top and bottom of the Lingwang Mansion fell asleep until the rooster crowed, but fortunately, the poisoned thief didn't seem to have done anything to make money and kill people, it was really dangerous!" Lin Li had already reported to Xue Ling, and this was for Shen Yu to hear.

Shen Yu still ignored it, and walked straight to Xue Ling, she was a little curious, how Qin Yan deceived the civil and military officials, and stayed safe and sound after staying away from the palace wall for so many years, "Your Highness, have you ever seen Qin Guifei buried with your own eyes." ”

Xue Ling, who was drinking the decoction, stiffened his hand for a moment, "No, what are you asking for?" ”

Shen Yu shook his head and didn't ask any further.

After eating, the doctor checked Xue Ling's pulse, "Your Highness's injury has been stabilized!" What a miracle! Next, you just need to pay attention to rest, eat a balanced diet, and recuperate well, so that there will be no sequelae in the future. ”

"Great." Lin Li slapped his leg and stood up.

In the afternoon, the weather turned cloudy and the climate was pleasant, Xue Ling asked Shen Yu to help him go to the courtyard railing to enjoy the flowers and relax, Lin Li wanted to follow, saying that he was afraid that Shen Yu would not have enough strength, Xue Ling insisted that he could go.

couldn't resist him, and finally Lin Li and Shen Yu carried Xue Ling out of the door.

In the flowers, butterflies linger, and bees also work diligently to collect nectar.

Xue Ling was in a good mood.

"Lin Li, go and pick a bouquet of flowers for this king, one or two of each."

"......" Lin Li went down with a black face.

Shen Yu stared at Lin Li's back, "Does Your Highness have something to say to me?" ”

"Clever."

"Lin Li's desire to protect is too strong, and it is rare for this king to support him for a while."

"Before Your Highness speaks, I would like to ask a few questions."

Xue Ling knew that he couldn't hide in the end.

"The day before yesterday, it was the wedding of Shen Yu, the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion, and the prince, and His Royal Highness, as the younger brother of the prince, should be there, how could he appear by the stream a few miles away?"

"If I say that the royal brother is married, and I didn't go, do you believe it?"

Shen Yu stared at Xue Ling for a moment with wide eyes, "I believe it." ”

"However, His Highness still did not answer why he appeared there?"

Xue Ling cupped her forehead, avoiding Shen Yu's scrutinizing gaze. How do you answer that? Why is that girl there? And why was he chased by a killer? ”

"Killer? What killer? And what about the thief locked up in the depths of the dungeon? Lin Li, who was in the distance, vaguely heard the words sent by the wind, holding a bouquet of flowers in response, and no one paid attention to him.

Shen Yu continued to squint at Xue Ling, "Did you see me in a wedding dress and never be suspicious?" ”

"I am the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion, the crown princess that the prince wants to marry." Shen asked and answered himself.

He didn't bother to pretend to be surprised, nodded silently, the atmosphere was a little awkward, Xue Ling finally remembered the topic to ask, "I woke up in the morning, there was a plain cloth at the head of the bed, I don't know if the girl fell last night." ”

"Uh...... You can help me lose it......" Shen Yu thought of Qin Yan, and was a little hesitant how to explain to him, saying that it was appropriate.

"Last night, you and Lin Li were in my room, did I have a nightmare?" Xue Ling continued to ask.

Listening to his puzzled tone, he thought that everything that had happened last night had been a dream.

"Well, seeing that you seemed to be in a nightmare and howled in fear, I stayed with Lin for a short while, and I must have fallen that veil at that time."

Shen Yu's explanation was weak, and his words were full of loopholes, it was clear that Shen Yu was the only one who hadn't used the drugged dinner last night, how could Lin Li guard Xue Ling with her.

"There's Aunt Lao...... Sister-in-law. Xue Ling seemed to have become stupid at this moment, so he believed it, and Shen Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

"I haven't made it with the prince yet, what is my sister-in-law!"

Lin Li walked over with a large bouquet of flowers at this time, and only heard the second half of the sentence and answered, "There is no news of the crown princess's escape from the prince's wedding, presumably someone has done it for you, so it stands to reason that His Royal Highness is not wrong to call you sister-in-law." ”

Shen Yu looked at Lin Li, and then at Xue Ling, "You already knew that I was the crown princess?" ”

It's a shame that she still proudly thinks that her identity is still a secret, and these two people sing and play themselves like monkeys!

Xue Ling glared at Lin Li, took the bouquet and handed it to Shen Yu.

"Then you still dare to keep me?" Shen Yu didn't want to reach out to pick it up, "I'm leaving." ”

Shen Yu touched the inkstone in the cuff and decided to take it back to his father.

Xue Ling stepped on Lin Li's kick hard, and Lin Li immediately understood, "The crown princess stays, the thief caught yesterday is still locked up in the dungeon!" ”

"Okay, then it's not too late to interrogate him."

Xue Ling stood for a while and sighed that he was a little tired, so Lin Li insisted that he sit on a chair with wheels installed and pushed him into the dungeon.

When they came to the deepest part of the dungeon, there was a man locked up here.

Lin Liu stood straight in front of the cell, and when he saw the servants coming, he consciously took the key and opened the door.

In the cell, One-Eyed was snoring in sleep tied to a cross stick.

Lin Li lifted the wooden bucket next to him, a bucket of cold water poured it down, and a few drops splashed on the corners of Shen Yu's clothes, and she lifted the hem of her skirt unnaturally.

There is no sunlight in the dungeon all day long, and it is already cold, so it is difficult not to wake up from freezing when such a bucket of cold water is poured.

One-eyed, however, shook his head and began to snore.

"Lin Liu, what's going on?"

"This thief is strong, and he ate a lot last night, so he was dizzy for a long time."

Xue Ling snorted, "He's comfortable, I don't want to come to the same wave of people as the drug, call me." ”

After getting the order, Lin Liu pulled out the whip on the table next to him, "Smack!" The whip went down, and the one-eyed woke up with pain.

"Shhh

The one-eyed man looked like a reckless man, but at this time he was whipped, and his expression was extremely fierce.

"Give it a good time!"

"Don't be in a hurry to die, this king will ask you a few questions, as long as you answer well, you can avoid some flesh and skin suffering."

"Die! I won't say anything! One-Eyed gritted his teeth and tilted his head.

Lin Li couldn't get used to him talking to Xue Ling like this, so he kicked him up, "Who sent you?" Do you know that you almost killed His Royal Highness King Ling! ”

"Huh-" Lin Li already hated that the one-eyed hurt Xue Ling, so naturally he would not show mercy to his subordinates, and at this moment he was holding a red-hot soldering iron and was about to stick it to the one-eyed face.
