When he went out, Grandpa Gao carefully closed the door, for fear of disturbing the father and daughter who had been reunited after a lot of hardship.

Lin Wanrong listened to Qin Xian'er's soft sobs inside, and couldn't help but shake her head, this matter is done right today, I hope that their father and daughter can get along well, so that Lord Lin and my hard work are not in vain.

"Lord Lin, Lord Lin," Grandpa Gao's voice sounded in his ears: "Someone wants to see you." ”

"See me? Who is it?! Lin Wanrong asked in surprise, in this emperor's Qianqing Palace, there are still people who want to see me, this is a strange thing.

Gao Ping nodded slightly, and said softly, "Please come with me." He took the lead, walked to the side room of the outer hall, passed through several houses, found one of them, and said respectfully: "This is it, my lord, please come in." ”

All the rooms in the hall are brightly lit, only this one has no lights, it is full of darkness, Lin Wanrong was puzzled, slowly pushed the door in, and saw an old black shadow, standing quietly in front of the window, his empty eyes flashing with a faint light.

"Uncle Wei?!!" Lin Wanrong exclaimed, and hurriedly stepped forward to grab his hand: "You, why are you here?" ”

Old man Wei smiled slightly: "Why am I not here?" ”

Lin Wanrong was stunned for a long time, and then took a long breath, nodded and sighed: "I understand, it turns out that Uncle Wei is also a person from the emperor's side." ”

Old man Wei smiled slightly, and there was a lot of emotion in his tone: "You are right, I am indeed the steward of the emperor's side." In the past, when the emperor was still in the palace, I followed him to serve, count it up. It's been more than thirty years. ”

More than thirty years? It is indeed a miracle that a blind man has served by the emperor's side for more than 30 years, but this master and servant are affectionate and righteous. Lao Wei seemed to see through his thoughts, and said with a smile: "Are you thinking?" How can I, a blind old man, follow the emperor and serve for more than 30 years? ”

Old man Wei is Lin Wanrong's savior, and he is like a reconstruction, Lin Wanrong is extremely honest in front of him, and he does not hide what he thinks in his heart, nodding and saying, "I do have some doubts. ”

"You don't have to doubt it, it's very simple, more than twenty years ago, I had the same sound eyes as you." The old blind man sighed faintly. There was incomparable resentment and regret hidden in his voice: "In the past, the emperor was seriously ill, and the emperor was kind-hearted and couldn't untie his clothes. Take care of him day and night, filial piety and benevolence, and spread his reputation all over the world. The emperor was very moved, and before the funeral, he made a will. Pass the throne to the emperor. It's just that at this most critical moment, a large number of assassins suddenly broke into the Xiangguo Temple where the emperor was recuperating. In order to protect the emperor, the emperor was seriously injured, and even the only prince was assassinated, and I also lost my eyes in order to protect the emperor. At the critical juncture, fortunately, Li Tai was loyal and upright, mobilized tens of thousands of troops, quelled the civil strife, and ensured the emperor's safety. ”

Talk about the past. Old Wei's tone was calm with some excitement, Lin Wanrong was secretly shocked when he heard it, the old emperor said this lightly last time, and his words were unknown, but Old Man Wei said a lot more clearly. It turned out that in that battle, not only Uncle Wei was blinded by stabbing in both eyes, but even the old emperor was seriously injured, and he also lost a son. Probably from the root of the illness that fell after that injury, after the old emperor ascended the throne, he did not give birth to a boy and a half girl, and there was no successor to the country, no wonder he hated King Cheng to the core.

"In order to keep Dahua forever, the emperor began to select talents more than ten years ago, and I, as the only person in the know, accepted this important task related to Dahua for thousands of generations, and traveled around to search for talents that can be created, until later, I met you." Lao Wei paused, sighed faintly, shook his head and said, "Wanrong, I really don't know whether to praise you or scold you?" ”

"Uncle, you can scold if you want. To be honest, my philosophy of life is different from yours, I want to be happy first, and then I want power and wealth. If there is no happiness, I would rather have nothing. Lin Wanrong said honestly.

"I naturally know this, and I like you, and there are more or less factors in this regard. You are open-minded, dare to think and dare to do, think openly, let go, and act in an eclectic way, with both benevolence and ruthlessness, which is indeed a good material. When I saw how happy you were, I thought you would change when you learned the truth, so I didn't care. But I didn't expect you to be the same stubborn after understanding the reason. The emperor admires and is helpless to you, but I am unwilling! ”

Lin Wanrong grinned and said: "Uncle, I told the emperor last time, can you find a way to get the best of both worlds, that is, not to embarrass me or embarrass him?" You old man is resourceful and will definitely be able to come up with a good way. ”

Old man Wei smiled bitterly: "You kid is a good hand at carrying the burden, the best of both worlds, where is it so easy to think of?" Speaking of which, though, I have to thank you for keeping me alive for a few more days. ”

"Lingering? Uncle, I don't understand. Lin Wanrong said puzzled.

"It's just a matter of lingering." Uncle Wei sighed: "The purpose of my life is to be loyal to the emperor and select a suitable talent for Dahua." Once I find this person, that's when I'm at the end—"

"Extinguishing ?!!" Lin Wanrong exclaimed.

"I willingly." Uncle Wei smiled faintly: "The master has given me everything, and it is my lifelong wish to be loyal to him." ”

Lin Wanrong looked at the blind old Wei blankly, and couldn't say a word for a long time. He does not belong to this era, so it is naturally difficult to understand Lao Wei's mentality, but he respects Uncle Wei's choice. From the perspective of the emperor, in order to pass on the Dahua foundation for thousands of generations, in order to keep the secret forever, the damned must die. He shook his head helplessly, if I promised the old emperor today, then I might never see Uncle Wei again, and my heart suddenly felt bad.

"The princess is back, it's been a long time since I've seen the emperor so happy." Lao Wei stood by the window, sighed, and said with emotion: "Wanrong, I thank you on behalf of the master." ”

As he spoke, he was about to kneel down and kowtow, but Lin Wanrong hurriedly helped him up: "Uncle, aren't you going to break my life?" You saved my life! What's more, Xian'er is my mother-in-law, and the old man is my father-in-law, so it is also what I should do to let their father and daughter clear up misunderstandings and reunite as soon as possible. ”

"I'm afraid the matter between you and the princess is not so smooth sailing." Lao Wei said slowly: "If you agree to the emperor's request today, your identity will change, and the emperor will arrange for you to enter the palace in a proper manner." The matter between you and the princess, then never again. ”

Lin Wanrong opened her mouth wide, no wonder the old emperor wanted me to become brother and sister with Xian'er, it turns out that there are so many ways in this. I don't know what Uncle Wei means by being right? Even if you enter the court, rumors and rumors are inevitable, who can control those old and spicy ministers, and who can deal with King Cheng?

"No one in this world dares to underestimate the emperor, his control of the current situation, his grasp of major events and decisiveness are incomparable to those mediocre people in King Cheng." Lao Wei snorted and said slowly: "After you enter the court, the emperor will arrange for you to gradually take charge of the ministry, eliminate rebellious officials, let you be the main examiner of Enke, and be promoted to the rank of sergeant in the world, and will also ask you to assist Li Tai and control the military power." As long as you have military power in your hands, no matter how strong the wind and waves are, your position is as stable as Mount Tai. has official power and military power, the kind of guy like King Cheng is the same meat on the chopping board, what can you do? ”

Old Wei is immersed in the emperor's side, familiar with his mind, talking about these political affairs, he is a big expert, Lin Wanrong secretly smacked his lips when he heard it, according to Uncle Wei, it is really very attractive. Alas, it would be nice if I could marry a fairy and play power again, wouldn't it be beautiful for Lao Tzu to be a happy king?

"What's wrong, do you regret it?" Although Lao Wei couldn't see it, he was born to serve the emperor, and he had a deep insight into human nature, so he smiled slightly.

"I don't regret it." Lin Wanrong smiled: "What's yours is yours, you can get it without robbing." Just like Xian'er and the old man, after so many years of ups and downs, aren't they finally reunited? ”

Old Man Wei nodded and sighed, a faint smile appeared on his face: "This time it is really thanks to you, the emperor did not look at the wrong person." ”

Today, Xian'er reunited with the old emperor, and Lin Wanrong reunited with Uncle Wei, which is really a double happiness. Xian'er's father and daughter talked for a long time, and the lights of the Qianqing Palace were on until late at night, and Lin Wanrong also lived in the palace. After talking with Uncle Wei at night, many of the previous questions gradually understood, and my heart was really happy. Just looking at Xian'er and the old emperor's happy family reunion, Lin Wanrong was relieved at the same time, but there was some loss. Everyone in the world has parents, and everyone can be happy, but he is an exception. On the surface, it looks like the spring breeze is proud, but it is rootless, I don't know where to float, and I am thousands of times more lonely than the monkey that popped out of the crack in the stone.

He had something on his mind, and he slept until the middle of the night, but he couldn't close his eyes anyway. The spring cold dew is heavy, and some faint dew has accumulated outside the window, and a round of crescent moon hangs in the air, and a little firefly is sprinkled down, which is an indescribable cold feeling. Putting on a long robe, he pushed open the door and stomped out slowly, and a faint cold air hit him, which made his groggy mind suddenly sober up a lot.

The lights in the old emperor's room were still not extinguished, and from time to time there were soft voices and sobs, Lin Wanrong could hear it clearly, this was the voice of Xian'er. He couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle, this girl was reunited with her father, but she cried from beginning to end, and she didn't know whether she was too sad or too happy.

When I came out of the Qianqing Palace, I saw some lights in a courtyard next to me, so I walked over. The courtyard was very close to the Qianqing Palace, and the lights were dim, and there were only a few eunuchs and palace maids on duty, napping under the oil lamps.

Lin Wanrong stepped into the courtyard, only to feel a faint fragrance coming to her face, like an orchid like a musk deer, and the fragrance was abnormal. He was aware of this, and when he looked up, he saw a long scroll hanging in the middle of the hall, and after only one glance, he stood there as if he had been struck by lightning.
