"No." Concubine Li vetoed, "The murderer of His Majesty has not been found, and the suspicion of the Prime Minister has always existed, the country and the society are bigger than everything, we can't take risks, and the affairs of the court will be taken care of by a few elders." ”

Gonggong Wang glanced at Concubine Li, who was full of worry, bowed his head and said, "Yes, the slave will pass on the word." ”

"You must take good care of Your Majesty, if you dare to have a half-cent difference, you will die without a place to be buried." Her beautiful eyes swept over the palace maid and imperial physician who were prostrate on the ground in the dormitory, Concubine Li spoke sharply, and then turned into the screen to see the dying emperor.

"Mother, the medicine is here." As soon as Concubine Li sat down on the edge of the bed, a palace maid brought in the boiled soup.

"Well, okay, you stand down."

"Yes."

Concubine Li held the slightly hot medicine bowl in both hands, but her eyes kept staring at Emperor Qi's face, as if to determine if he was really about to leave this world.

This infatuated man, even though she tried her best to force him to accept herself as a concubine, his loyalty to the queen has not changed at all.

His love is so pure, so immaculate, so high, flying in the clouds, refusing to be stained with dust.

She has been in the deepest abyss, watching all this, envious, jealous, untouchable......

"Are you loving the millions of people in this country with your life, or are you loving the queen with your life?"

She suddenly hooked her lips and smiled, a little self-deprecating, and a little sighing.

In fact, no matter which choice he made, it was the same for her.

"We are also husband and wife, don't worry, I will take good care of you in these last days."

Concubine Li stirred the decoction in her hand, took a spoonful, blew it gently, and then fed it to the person on the bed.

At night, the stars and moon are dark.

The slender jade fingers slightly hooked the end of the green silk, took off a golden hairpin on the bun, and slightly dialed the candle.

The light of the fire jumped suddenly, and then dimmed again.

"Why are you here?" The female voice seemed a little disappointed and lonely.

"The leader of the alliance is entangled in trivial matters, so let me come here first to have a look, and when the new emperor ascends the throne, he will come in person." The black-clothed masked water scorpion said indifferently, "These days, I will protect your safety here, if there is something, you can come to me." ”

"Does he believe me?" The woman turned around, and her beautiful face shimmered faintly under the lights, which was particularly moving.

Through the change of light and shadow, the water scorpion could see the emotion in her eyes at a glance, or rather, in the Blood Alliance Lord's Pavilion, there was no one who didn't know her love for the alliance leader, even the alliance leader, he guessed, he also knew.

But the alliance leader never made it clear, maybe because he wanted to kill her thoughts, maybe because he felt unnecessary, maybe he ...... He never cared at all.

"Coveting something out of reach is your biggest failure." The water scorpion disdainfully finished speaking, jumped out of the window, and quietly disappeared into the night.

The woman looked stunned in the direction he had left, and suddenly burst into tears, laughing and lying down on the soft couch.

"Covetous, it turns out that I really just covet ......"

So at such a dangerous time, he refused to come and see her in person.

"What's there to be sad about? Niangniang is such a jade bone ice quality, what kind of man can't you grab by yourself? Grandpa Wang walked out of the shadows with a pair of orchid fingers and a swing.

He looked at the beauty on the soft couch, shook the handkerchief in his hand, and sat down in a seat by the window.

"Even General Chen, who has always been unsmiling, fell under Niangniang's pomegranate skirt, and it was only a matter of time before the man next to him came."

Concubine Li looked up at the dark night outside the window, letting the tears run down her cheeks and drip into the green silk on her temples.

"You don't understand, he's different."

If a person wants to like another person, he must first have a heart, and a person who has no heart, he doesn't even love himself, so how can he talk about being tempted by another person?

In fact, she has been deceiving herself all the time, and she is just a moth to a fire.

Don't understand? Does he need to understand?

Father-in-law Wang sneered in his heart, he didn't come here tonight to listen to people complain, and he didn't have so much time to squander.

"You said that the emperor had a prince wandering, is this true? Is there a token? Why haven't you seen the so-called 'prince' in your mouth until now? ”

These doubts had been in his mind for days, and he could no longer pretend not to care and let her perfunctory.

What they are doing now is a big thing to lose their heads, which of the Manchu Dynasty is easy to fool? Even if the little prince was suddenly assassinated, I'm afraid they already had an idea.

As long as His Majesty dies, the upper and lower governments and the opposition will inevitably be in chaos, but now they haven't even seen anyone who wants to be promoted to the throne, isn't this a big joke?

Concubine Li looked sideways at Gonggong Wang, who was holding an orchid finger, and as soon as she raised her hand, an embroidered scarf fluttered down and covered half of his face.

The candlelight is dim, and the beauty is like a lamp.

Father-in-law Wang was stunned, but it was only for a while, and he came back to his senses with palpitations.

This concubine, no wonder His Majesty can accept her as a nobleman, this harem of the Qi Kingdom, except for the queen, there is only one concubine. Pen in Chinese

"Father-in-law, have you ever heard of the unicorn jade pendant?" Concubine Li lowered her eyes slightly and asked him softly.

"Qilin Jade Pendant?" Gonggong Wang frowned and thought about it, but suddenly his eyes lit up, and he slapped the table and stood up, "Is it the unicorn jade that the emperor created for Concubine Zhen?" Half of this piece of jade was given to Concubine Zhen, and the other piece was given to Lin'er, who was born to her! ”

Concubine Li chuckled, raised her eyes slightly, and ordered, "Peach, bring the wooden box engraved with three golden flowers." ”

The palace maid who had been waiting beside her answered, and hurriedly went to get the wooden box.

After a while, she brought the wooden box.

"Grandpa Wang, this is a unicorn jade pendant." Concubine Li took the jade pendant brought by Tao'er, flicked her dress, stepped off the soft couch, and personally put the wooden box in the hands of Grandpa Wang, "You can take a closer look and see if there is a fake." ”

Wang Gonggong opened the wooden box suspiciously, and was startled by the four words engraved on the jade pendant inside.

Bestow on Concubine Zhen.

"How can you have half of Concubine Zhen's jade pendant?"

Until she opened the wooden box, Father-in-law Wang thought that the jade pendant in her hand should be given to Concubine Zhen's son, but he didn't expect it......

"Before she died, Concubine Zhen gave this jade pendant to the prince." Concubine Li had a smile in her eyes, but her voice was very indifferent.

In other words, "Gonggong Wang was overjoyed in his heart" that His Royal Highness the prince had two jade pendants in his hands? ”

This is ironclad evidence to prove the prince's bloodline, as long as these two jade pendants come out, who else in the court can not be convinced?

"Yes, another jade pendant given by the emperor is in the hands of the prince, and when he ascends the throne, he will come with the jade."

Gonggong Wang stood up and saluted Concubine Li with a smile, "Now the miscellaneous family is much more relieved, the miscellaneous family, I will definitely do my best for my mother, it's just ...... After this is done, the mother should always give some miscellaneous sweetness to taste, right? ”

"That's nature." Concubine Li gave Tao'er a look, and Tao'er immediately understood, and went to the back to get a tray covered with red cloth and came out.

"This is a small gift, please accept it first."

"Hey," Father-in-law Wang pushed away the tray, "Over the years, Niangniang, you have given enough, how dare the miscellaneous family ask for it again?" ”

Concubine Li squinted and smiled, "My father-in-law said so, then he must have something else to want." ”

Wang Gonggong couldn't help but praise, "Niangniang is really a smart person, and there have always been few smart people in this palace." ”

Concubine Li just laughed and didn't say anything.

She waited for him to tell him what he was trying to do.

"Talking to smart people, the miscellaneous family will not go around in circles, the miscellaneous family has seen enough gold, silver and jewelry over the years, but there is still one less confidant around him, and the rest of the miscellaneous family does not want it, as long as there is such a person."

This request stunned Concubine Li.

Confidant? What confidant?

He, a eunuch, should the confidant he want be a man or a woman?

Concubine Li thought about it and came to no avail, so she simply asked directly, "What kind of 'confidant' does my father-in-law want?" But already have a candidate? ”

Grandpa Wang cocked his orchid fingers and laughed, and his old and feminine face suddenly seemed like a mess, so disgusting that people couldn't look at it directly.

"Don't be next to the miscellaneous family, as long as the first minister of the Qin country, Shen Qingzhi."

"Woo ——!"

Tao'er, who was replacing the new tea, was startled and smashed the teapot in her hand to the ground.

Concubine Li frowned and scolded in a low voice, "You've been by my side for a long time, won't you even change the tea?" Don't hurry up and clean up! ”

The prince didn't seem to care at all, he smiled and said, "Then Shen Qingzhi is now a person who has committed a serious crime, how to deal with it, it should all depend on the new emperor's words, right?" ”

Concubine Li also laughed, "That's nature, this Shen Qingzhi...... It's all up to my father-in-law to deal with it. ”

"Even so, the miscellaneous family has thanked Niangniang here first." Wang Gonggong smiled and saluted Concubine Li again, and asked again, "I just don't know when Niangniang plans to set the date of this enthronement?" ”

"When Your Majesty dies." Concubine Li said.

When Father-in-law Wang heard this, he didn't agree, "Niangniang, don't forget what 'long nights and dreams' are, our Lord Gu Xiang may come to us for trouble at any time." ”

When Concubine Li heard this, she immediately fell silent.

Seeing this situation, Wang Gonggong added another sentence, "The miscellaneous family also knows that after all, Niangniang has been with His Majesty for so many years, and there must be some affection, but love is love, and Niangniang still has to think clearly about what is imminent at the moment." ”

The words have been said and done, Wang Gonggong felt that the heat was enough, so he saluted and said goodbye and withdrew from the palace.

"Niangniang, this father-in-law Wang is not only black and greedy for money, but also a toad who wants to eat swan meat, he is no longer a man or a woman, and he is still thinking about Shen Xiang, which is really disgusting." As soon as Tao'er saw Grandpa Wang leaving, she immediately snorted in disgust.

"Don't talk nonsense, let him do it first." Concubine Li slowly walked to the window, "After all, they are all going to die......"

Tao'er shuddered in her heart, silently packed up the pieces of the teapot and retreated.
