At this time, the real hostess of the harem, Empress Dowager Xu, also rushed over.

Seeing Zhang Lingyang standing there dignifiedly, the old man of the Queen Mother couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and stepped forward to ask with concern: "Is the emperor okay?" ”

Zhang Lingyang had no choice but to step forward and reply: "Don't worry, the queen mother, the son is fine!" ”

Although Zhang Lingyang didn't know the Queen Mother, nor did he know what she looked like, he couldn't stand the shouts of the little eunuch next to him, plus a large number of palace maids and eunuchs around the Queen Mother followed, and a group of concubines saluted one after another, Zhang Lingyang naturally knew who the Queen Mother was.

Seeing the Queen Mother, Zhang Lingyang was actually a little embarrassed in his heart.

After all, he killed the son of the Queen Mother.

Zhang Lingyang, who was afraid that he would be exposed, weighed it again and again, so he stepped forward and said to the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, it's getting late, you better go back to the palace early to rest!" ”

"It's good!" The Queen Mother nodded noncommittally, after all, she was an elderly person, and she got up in the middle of the night, and she cared about her good son along the way. At this time, seeing that Zhang Lingyang was fine, he finally put his mind at ease.

I let go of my hanging heart, and I naturally felt a little tired unconsciously.

After telling Zhang Lingyang a few more words, the Queen Mother turned around and walked away surrounded by a large number of palace maids and eunuchs.

By this time, the fire had gradually weakened.

Seeing this, Queen Wang stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the Heart Cultivation Palace has been destroyed, why don't you rest at the concubine's place for a night tonight!" ”

Seeing that Queen Wang said this, the rest of the concubines looked sideways, and their eyes were full of scrutiny.

In the harem, who doesn't know that the queen has occupied the emperor for a whole day today!

But Queen Wang seemed to turn a blind eye, looking at Zhang Lingyang with waves in her eyes, hoping that Zhang Lingyang would agree.

Zhang Lingyang, who had been tired all day, naturally had no intention of working now, and when he saw Queen Wang say this, he was about to open his mouth to agree, but the noble concubine on the side did not want to speak.

Concubine Gao said: "During the day, the queen mother has been busy all day, and she must be very tired, how can she have the time to serve the emperor?" Why don't you go to the concubine? ”

As she spoke, Concubine Gao's eyes were full of anticipation.

When the queen thought about it, it was indeed as the noble concubine said, even if the emperor went to her place tonight, she would not have the physical strength to 'serve' the emperor anymore.

Seeing this, the rest of the concubines didn't know what the noble concubine was thinking, so they also opened their mouths one after another, 'invited' Zhang Lingyang to their palace to 'rest'.

Now Zhang Lingyang didn't have the heart to let them 'serve' at all, so he said: "I will rest at the queen's place tonight!" ”

"I'm tired, you all stand down!" Zhang Lingyang waved his hand and asked the concubines to retire.

The concubines had to reluctantly leave the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Especially the noble concubine, when she was leaving, she glanced back at Zhang Lingyang, her eyes were full of resentment.

Zhang Lingyang naturally didn't see all this, but took Queen Wang's delicate little hand, talked and laughed and went to Changchun Palace.

After taking a shower and changing clothes, Zhang Lingyang and Queen Wang went to the bed and lay down together.

During this period, Zhang Lingyang did not do those embarrassing things with Queen Wang, but hugged her warm body, and fell asleep after a while......

The sky outside the window was gloomy, and outside the Changchun Palace, there were already a group of eunuchs and palace maids waiting there, waiting for Zhang Lingyang to get up.

In the bedroom, Queen Wang opened her eyes and looked at Zhang Lingyang, who was sleeping on the side, with a happy smile on the corner of her mouth.

Gently pushed Zhang Lingyang, and Queen Wang whispered in his ear: "Your Majesty, it's time to get up!" ”

"Hmm!" Zhang Lingyang narrowed his sleepy eyes, and said weakly: "I'll be exempted from the morning today, I'll make up for a while!" ”

After saying that, snoring sounded between the nostrils.

Looking at Zhang Lingyang's appearance, Queen Wang was angry and funny, but thinking of yesterday, the emperor was tired all day and encountered a fire at night, so he must have been extremely sleepy, otherwise he wouldn't have been like this.

Immediately, the queen shouted outside, "The emperor has decreed, today's morning court will be exempted!" ”

After speaking, Queen Wang reclined on the bed, staring at Zhang Lingyang's face without blinking......

Outside the Taihe Palace, the civil and military officials who were waiting for the court naturally knew about the fire in the Yangxin Hall last night, and there were groups of discussions.

At this time, a little eunuch hurriedly walked over, looked at the ministers, and shouted: "The emperor's command!" ”

Hearing this, all the ministers knelt down one after another.

The little eunuch said: "Your Majesty's dictation, the court will be exempted this morning!" ”

After speaking, the little eunuch hurriedly walked out of the Taihe Palace.

In this regard, the ministers guessed in their hearts: "Presumably, Your Majesty should have not slept all night last night!" ”

After getting up, the ministers left the palace in groups of three or five.

In Changchun Palace, when Zhang Lingyang woke up, the sky was already bright.

Under the service of a group of palace maids, Zhang Lingyang finished washing and dressing, and walked to the main hall.

I saw the queen sitting on the bed, and a little eunuch was kneeling on the ground, not knowing what he was saying.

Zhang Lingyang said: "What do you say? ”

Seeing Zhang Lingyang come in, Queen Wang got up and said, "What about the fire in the Heart Cultivation Hall last night?" ”

"Oh?" Zhang Lingyang became interested, so he asked, "Are there any casualties?" Has Li Yu's body ever been found? ”

In fact, Zhang Lingyang asked knowingly.

The little eunuch replied: "Long live Lord Qiyu, Grandpa Li's corpse has been found, but in addition to Grandpa Li's corpse, the slave also found two corpses in the Heart Cultivation Palace. ”

"Oh?" Pretending to be concerned, Zhang Lingyang asked, "Have you ever found out the identities of those two corpses?" ”

The little eunuch replied: "The slave checked the palace maids and eunuchs who were serving in the Heart Cultivation Hall last night, and found that except for the disappearance of Wang Qin and Wang Gonggong, everyone else was fine, and I thought that the corpse must be the body of Wang Gonggong. As for the other corpse......"

Speaking of this, the little eunuch didn't dare to say anything.

"Go on, I forgive you for your innocence!" Pretending to be nothing, Zhang Lingyang asked.

"Yes!" The little eunuch replied: "In addition to the prince, the servant found that the other corpse was an adult man. Other than that...... In addition, the minions also found a secret passage leading to the outside of the palace in the Heart Cultivation Palace. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Lingyang couldn't help but squint his eyes: "Since yesterday morning, I haven't seen Wang Qin's figure, how can he be in the Heart Cultivation Palace?" Also, what about the man's body? ”

"Is it that Wang Qin colluded with thieves and wanted to do something rebellious?"

The little eunuch replied: "Returning to the Long Live Lord, the slave asked, Wang Qin has often been out of the palace these days, and his whereabouts are a little sneaky, thinking that Wang Qin colluded with thieves and wanted to assassinate Long Live Lord, so he set fire to the Heart Cultivation Palace." I didn't want to live Yejiren's own natural appearance, and he successfully escaped, not to mention, Wang Qin and the thief were also cocooned and burned alive by the fire they set themselves. ”

"Well, this kid can talk and has a future!" Zhang Lingyang nodded with satisfaction.

In fact, Zhang Lingyang's plan has many loopholes, and the corpses of Wang Qin and Zhao Chenxi are the biggest loopholes.

However, after the little eunuch's narration, the loophole was covered up, how could Zhang Lingyang be dissatisfied in his heart?

"What's your name?" Zhang Lingyang asked.

"The minion's name is Xiao Lingzi!" The little eunuch replied.

Hearing this, Zhang Lingyang's brows furrowed slightly: "My name has the word 'Ling' in it, do you know that your name is taboo?" No, we have to change our name! ”

Zhang Lingyang unconsciously substituted himself into the identity of the emperor and said: "This name is not good, I will give you another name, Xiaofuzi, what do you think?" ”

Xiao Fuzi was overjoyed, and hurriedly buckled his head and said: "Slave Xiaofuzi, thank you for the name!" ”

"Get up, you will be on an errand with me in the future!"

"Long live you!" Xiaofuzi got up, and the joy on his face couldn't be hidden.

But Zhang Lingyang turned to look at Queen Wang: "Wang Qin has done a lot of injustice, so I won't say much." But Li Yu has served me for many years, and died last night because of saving me, and I can't treat the meritorious servant badly. ”

Queen Wang said with a smile: "What Your Majesty said is very true, the concubine heard that Li Yu also has a younger brother outside the palace!" ”

Zhang Lingyang nodded: "Then pass on my will and reward Li Yu's younger brother with 100 acres of fertile land and 1,000 taels of silver to comfort Li Yu's spirit in the sky." ”

As he spoke, Zhang Lingyang looked at Xiao Fuzi: "Xiao Fuzi, this matter will be handed over to you, and you must handle it properly!" ”

"Yes!"

After having breakfast with Queen Wang, Zhang Lingyang left Changchun Palace and went to the Imperial Garden under the guidance of Xiaofuzi.

"I want to be alone and quiet, so you all stand down!" Seeing a lake in front of him, Zhang Lingyang's eyes lit up, waved away everyone, and came to the lake alone.
