Xiao Lingyan's statement coincides with what he knows, and Zhao Ruxi is not worried.

Her mind returned to this secret room: "This secret room was not built by you or the concubine, right?" ”

"No, it was there as early as the establishment of the Great Jin Dynasty. The imperial palace of the Great Jin Dynasty was rebuilt on the basis of the imperial palace of the previous dynasty. When I was assigned a place, my mother inadvertently learned about this secret room because she was in charge of the middle palace, so she deliberately assigned this palace to the original owner. Say that if there is a situation, there is also a hiding place. ”

"When I found this secret room, Xiao Lingpu had already chosen a place to live, and it was not easy to change it. Otherwise, this place will belong to him, and it will not be the turn of the original owner. ”

When Xiao Lingyan said this, he just stated in a tone and did not have any emotion.

In order to make Xiao Lingpu succeed, Cen Guifei and the Cen family concentrated all their forces for his use, which was correct from a strategic and tactical point of view.

If he hadn't had the heart to win the heir, he would now be willingly planning everything for Xiao Lingpu.

But fortunately, he had already seen the facts. Otherwise, if you really support Xiao Lingpu to ascend to the throne, her daughter-in-law doesn't know how angry she will be.

When he decided to win the heir, Cen Peixuan's personality accounted for a large factor. That's not a tolerant and jealous character. Thinking that she became a queen, her daughter-in-law had to kneel and bow in front of her, groveling, Xiao Lingyan was uncomfortable.

He and his daughter-in-law plotted the world, but in the end, they still had to rely on people's snorts, bow down to people, and life and death had to be in the hands of others, and they really had to suffocate to death.

He glanced at the shelf where the things were kept: "Apart from me and my mother, there is only one old lady who cleans the house for me here." Those things, she will come in every half a month to change them, so the things are fresh. ”

That old lady was a deaf and dumb woman who was occasionally rescued in the palace by Concubine Cen when she was young, helpless and very loyal.

Zhao Ruxi nodded, and asked again: "Is there any other way out besides that door?" ”

"Nope." Xiao Lingyan said, "After I wore it, I received the memory of the original owner, and I knew that there was such a basement, I was not at ease at that time, I was worried that there was a tunnel here, and others came to assassinate me through the tunnel. ”

Xiao Lingyan said this, and knew that there was no worry about his life, Zhao Ruxi simply didn't work himself.

There is a bed in it, and Xiao Lingyan is lying down. There are also a few chairs. Zhao Ruxi moved a chair and sat on the edge of the bed.

"When are you going to speak?" She reached out and touched Xiao Lingyan's face and asked.

"Before we get married." Xiao Lingyan said, "The treatment must always be gradual, right? ”

"But it's so uncomfortable for you to lie like this." Zhao Ruxi sighed.

She knew that Xiao Lingyan was for the sake of Concubine Cen and her own great cause, and she didn't want to fight the Cen family now.

He is against the Cen family, not only Cen Guifei and Xiao Lingpu are uncomfortable, but the world wants to scold him for being unfilial, which is not good for his reputation, this kind of internal friction is still what the opponent is willing to see.

The crown prince and the third prince and the fourth prince are finished, and there is also a Xiao Lingpu, the sixth prince and the prince born later.

In the case of a good candidate, Xiao Lingpu will have no chance to ascend the throne if he is crippled. But if there is no other better candidate, except for the lack of a few fingers, there is no major problem with his virtue or ability, and it is still possible for him to ascend to the throne.

The right hand can't be Zhu Pi, and the left hand is fine, just practice the characters for a few years. It's not a big deal.

So for the reason why Xiao Lingyan pretended to be sick, Zhao Ruxi could guess seven or eight points.

However, regarding the relationship between Xiao Lingyan and Cen Guifei, Xiao Lingpu, and the Cen family, Zhao Ruxi never interfered, let alone commented.

Xiao Lingyan has the memory of the original owner, and he has feelings for these people. Now that he can confront these people for himself and her, take the heir by himself, and be burdened to manage a country in the future, what is she not satisfied with?

For those people, he can do whatever he wants, as long as he doesn't make a fool of being a holy father.

She said no more, and said, "In this case, in case they suddenly open the door and hear you, you should sleep again." When you wake up, maybe we'll be out. ”

In the past, Xiao Lingyan drank the medicine and could fall asleep in less than two minutes. At this time, he is still awake, and he is probably holding on.

Moreover, Xiao Lingyan doesn't sleep, so it's not easy for her to talk to the system in her head and listen to the system's real-time broadcast.

The most important thing now is to know the news from the outside.

Xiao Lingyan didn't know how Concubine Cen would treat Zhao Ruxi at such a critical juncture. He was very uneasy just now, so he pretended to be asleep. And under the effect of medicine, while pretending to be asleep, you have to keep your mind clear, and you really can't do it without strong willpower.

Knowing that it was okay at this time, he said "hmm" and quickly fell asleep.

Zhao Ruxi sat on a chair and began to listen to the system's real-time broadcast of the situation outside.

"Host, the rebels at the palace gate have been defeated, the rebel leader has been captured alive, and the other soldiers have been shot."

Xiao Lingheng asked more than 100 rebels to attract artillery fire at the palace gate, and about 50 people attacked the east gate, while he himself planned to bring 60 or 70 people in the west gate to kill the emperor and everyone in the palace. Now that they were all defeated, he had now changed his clothes and fled in a hurry. ”

"The imperial guards sent by the emperor have been secretly staring at Xiao Lingheng for a long time. He didn't have to run far before he was assassinated on the spot. ”

"Host, Concubine Jin may have gotten the news and hanged herself in the cold palace."

"All the rebellions are over, and the guards are cleaning up the battlefield."

Hearing this, Zhao Ruxi took out the pocket watch in his arms and looked at it.

After Xiao Lingyan fell asleep, she glanced at her pocket watch, and the hands pointed to 4:40 at that time. It's half past five. Luring the snake out of the hole and killing the rebels and the char siu son, Xiao Qi only took 50 minutes.

As soon as she put the pocket watch in her arms, the door that had been closed made a "kaka" sound, and the door was slowly opened.

Concubine Cen Guifei's slightly tired face appeared at the door.

Cen Guifei thought that she would see a panicked Zhao Ruxi. After all, staying in a dark room, this is the situation outside. Although Xiao Lingyan was with her, he wouldn't move, and secondly, he would fall asleep if he drank the medicine, which didn't work at all.

But when she took advantage of the light in the palace maid's hand to go down the two steps, and when she looked up, she saw Zhao Ruxi, who was getting up from the chair, with a radiant face.

Xiao Lingyan was still lying on the bed, unconscious, and his posture had not even changed.

"Niangniang, is it okay?" Zhao Ruxi took two steps forward and asked.

"Yes." A smile appeared on Concubine Cen's face, "The emperor has sent the imperial guards over, saying that everything is settled, so what should we do, don't panic." ”
