Seeing that the other party did not speak, Prince Yan sighed.

"What you say, this king should do."

Hearing Prince Yan's words, Li Zeyi showed a light smile: "After the matter is completed, what I promised Uncle Huang will definitely be done." Replace wine with tea, toast a cup of Uncle Huang, I hope we have a happy cooperation. ”

The two said a few more words, and Prince Yan did not leave the teahouse with Li Zeyi. After all, his wife wanted to accompany her to choose a gift for the emperor's birthday today, and the two agreed to wait in this teahouse.

He looked at the back of the leaving, long and upright, and sighed in his heart. The crown prince and Prince Yi are fighting, and I am afraid that they will not be able to compete with him.

Li Zeyi came out of the teahouse, and just as he was about to get into the carriage, he saw Sui Feng coming over with a solemn face.

"Master, Lord Ronghua was ambushed in the Jade Light Forest. The people who operated this time were all people who had taken the newly developed pills from the prince's side, so I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with. ”

When Li Zeyi heard this, his face changed, where did he have time to take care of the things on the side, so he took up his light work and swept all the way towards the city gate, and he didn't even sit in the carriage.

He didn't expect the prince to really dare to do something to Lin Zhuohua, this is simply going to tear his face directly with the Gonggong Mansion, does he no longer care about the second lady of the Lin family, the future crown princess?

No matter what, Lin Jialin is still the second lady of the Lin family. If the prince acts like this, it will definitely make her very difficult in the Guogong Mansion.

His thoughts changed, but the light work under his feet became faster and faster.

Lin Zhuohua's carriage galloped all the way out of the Jade Light Forest, and only after entering the pipeline did the speed decrease. She lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw a familiar figure flash by. She blinked, leaned out of the carriage and shouted.

"Li Zeyi, where are you going?"

Li Zeyi heard a familiar voice, his steps stopped instantly, and then he turned around, and when he saw the girl in a fiery red shirt leaning out of the carriage with half of her body, she was waving towards him.

His heart returned to normal, and he turned back to the car window.

"I heard that you were ambushed, so I rushed over to take a look, are you okay?"

With worry in his eyes, he carefully looked at the person. After making sure that she was not injured, it was completely reassured.

Lin Zhuohua looked at the fine sweat on his head, and took out a handkerchief to wipe it off for him.

"I'm fine, and while those people are really tough to deal with, have you forgotten what I'm best at?"

At this time, Lin Zhuohua did not feel any discomfort, and it seems that the punishment of the rules has not yet fallen. Now that they're driving on the pipes, who knows if someone will come to ambush her. So she wasn't going to stay here long, continued.

"You can't make it from the city, you must be tired, come up and rest, let's go back together."

Li Zeyi nodded, and then got into the carriage.

Bai Yu and the others hurriedly saluted, after all, it was Prince Yi who was facing. Even if this is their future uncle, the identity of the family is there.

Li Zeyi bowed slightly, raised his hand to let them get up, and sat down beside Lin Zhuohua.

"You deliberately lured people to the Jade Light Forest, right?"

Lin Zhuohua saw that he rarely lowered his face, stuck out his tongue, and grabbed his arm: "They have been following me for several days, and they are always so annoying." Why don't I take the initiative and lead people to the Yuguang Forest to solve it once. In this way, the other party will also be afraid and dare not continue to do it. ”

Li Zeyi really didn't have anything to do with her, but he was holding his breath in his heart. Those people are taking special drugs, which is particularly difficult to deal with. If something happened to her, he really didn't know what he would do.

Lin Zhuohua glanced at him, saw that he still had a gloomy face, gently tugged at his sleeve, and his voice was soft: "I promise there won't be a next time, okay?" ”

Facing the pair of clear phoenix eyes, looking at him pitifully, with a soft and glutinous voice, who can stand this.

"Ugh." He sighed heavily and scooped the man into his arms.

Say, reluctant to say!

Fight, even more reluctant!

What to do? I can only pet it!

"I know that your strength has improved very quickly now, but there are so many people on the other side, and they have all taken that kind of medicine. It's especially hard to deal with, and you must not be able to do it again in the future. ”

He pulled her apart a little and looked down at her dark eyes with a serious expression.

"Promise me that no matter what happens in the future, my own safety will come first. Before making a decision, think about your loved ones and me. In the hearts of all of us, the safety of your life comes first. ”

Lin Zhuohua nodded hurriedly when he heard this, and promised seriously: "Well, I promise that there will be no next time, I will protect myself and not let you be distracted." ”

She gently leaned her head into his arms and rubbed it coquettishly. She already knew what he wanted, and now she knew what to do so that he could fight the prince with peace of mind.

Li Zeyi sighed, rubbed her hair, and didn't say anything, just hugged her arm and tightened it slightly.

Back in Beijing, Li Zeyi personally sent people back to the Gongfu. In order not to worry the people in the house, neither of them mentioned this matter. After sitting in Taoyuan for a while, he was invited to the study by Lin Laoguo's mansion.

Lin Zhuohua was also a little tired today, she glanced at the few Bai Yu who were not energetic, and waved her hand: "You guys should also go down and rest, you are tired today." ”

Bai Yu and Hongzhu nodded, they were not hypocritical, and after waiting for Lin Zhuohua to lie down and rest, they all retreated to rest.

Lin Zhuohua lay on the bed and used his consciousness to chat with the old ghost and Yao Shi in the medicine house.

"The punishment of the rules has not been lowered, is there no punishment anymore?" She spoke with a sense of luck.

The old ghost sounded in a somewhat mocking voice: "Dream, how can you not be punished." Although that medicinal powder is not as anti-heaven as the pill, it is also a fine product in the medicine house, and it is something that cannot exist outside. ”

Yao Shi's gentle voice was a little doting: "Don't scare her, this punishment shouldn't be very serious." Maybe you can't feel it physically, you don't have to care. ”

When Lin Zhuohua heard the words of the medicine release, his heart settled. She covered the corners of her mouth and yawned, and drowsiness gradually set in, and she fell into a deep sleep without saying a few words.

On the second day, Lin Zhuohua sat listlessly at the table, looking at the table full of her favorite meals, but she couldn't eat any taste. Is this the punishment given by the rules? Make her lose her sense of taste?

I don't know when she will lose her sense of taste, if it takes a long time, it will be mental torture for her. It's better to let her lie in bed and recuperate like last time. At least you can eat whatever you want.

Lin Zhuohua ate a few bites and asked them to remove the food.

"Miss, are you feeling unwell?"

Bai Yu asked with some concern, her own lady likes to eat food the most. Even if he was recuperating in bed before, he would not leave three meals behind, and he ate a lot. It was the first time she had seen the young lady eat so little, and she couldn't help but be a little worried.

"No, I just don't have much appetite. I haven't touched these dishes much, so you can take them and eat them. ”

With that, he got up and left the table, leaning on top of the low collapse. Picked up the medical book on the low table and read it slowly.

Bai Yu and Hongzhu glanced at each other, and saw the same worry in each other's eyes.

The meal was removed and several people sat around.

"Shall we go and talk to Madame?"

"Miss shouldn't want to alarm Madame, yesterday was fine, let's observe for a few days first." Hongzhu has always been delicate, she pondered and shook her head. Search

Among the four maids, several of them listened to Hongzhu, and when they saw her say this, they responded.

Lin Zhuohua didn't know that he hadn't eaten a few bites of food, which made a few maids so worried. She called Mu Xia to test her homework.

"Well, you've mastered the basics. You can read more of the codex I gave you, and then you must practice and comprehend it yourself. I don't have anything to do here now, you can go to the medical building and practice. ”

"Really? Can I go to the hospital? ”

Mu Xia's eyes lit up, she had almost learned medical skills and poison techniques now. But she has never practiced it, and now that she can go to the medical building, she is naturally happy.

Lin Zhuohua nodded, seeing that she was happy, her mood also improved a lot.

"Miss, but it's not comfortable. Look, you seem to have lost your appetite when you were eating just now? Why don't you let your subordinates show you? Mu Xia was a little worried about Lin Zhuohua, and he also wanted to try how well he had learned.

Lin Zhuohua moved the corners of his mouth, and swallowed back the words that reached the tip of his tongue. Reach out and let her check her pulse.

Bai Yu's maids will definitely be worried about whether there is something wrong with her body, so it is better to let Mu Xia diagnose and treat it, so that they can rest assured.

Mu Xia put her hand on the landlord's wrist, and only withdrew her hand after a long time: "Miss is in good health and there is no problem." With some doubt in her eyes, she continued, "But why do you lose your appetite, Miss?" ”

Lin Zhuohua withdrew his hand and said lightly: "Loss of appetite is not necessarily due to illness, it may also be related to some external reasons, such as because of some things, or because of some people, or even because of the weather." ”

Mu Xia nodded as if she didn't understand, anyway, Miss is in good health. I'll talk to Bai Yu and them for a while, so that they don't worry.

After Mu Xia retreated, Lin Zhuohua pestled his chin. I don't know what I'm thinking, and my thoughts drift away.

Compared with Lin Zhuohua's leisure, Lin Youran at this time is not very good. She paced back and forth in the room with some anxiety, no longer as calm as usual.

"Miss, you sit down and have a cup of tea to calm down."

Seeing her like this, Mama Dong sighed in her heart. She was also confused by the prince's operation, but she didn't expect the prince to send so many people to ambush Lin Zhuohua. The most important thing is that instead of killing, people put their people in it.

Those medicines were added to Gu, and they knew better than anyone how effective the medicine was. But the eldest lady's people actually killed them all, and in the end, they didn't even find their bones. Such an ability shocked them. Since when did the eldest lady develop such a force in secret!

"Mama, how do you calm me down. Regardless of whether this matter was done by the prince or not, Lin Zhuohua and Prince Yi will definitely fall on the prince. And if the prince succeeds in doing this, has he ever thought about what will happen to me in the Guogong Mansion? ”

Lin Youran's little love for the prince in his heart at this time was completely gone, and there were more benefits than love.

Mama Dong moved the corners of her mouth and said dryly: "Maybe the prince was forced by Prince Yi, and now half of the military power in Dajing is in the hands of Prince Yi, and the forbidden army and the imperial army in Shangjing have also been handed over to him." This thing is to choke the crown prince's neck......"

Lin Youran naturally understands these truths, but he can understand them. But the prince's approach still made her feel cold.

"Mama, the prince has no heart at all. In his eyes, only he is the most important person. ”

Mama Dong looked at her little master distressedly, and only after a long time did she speak: "Miss, if you don't want to marry the prince." We have another choice, it's a big deal to fake your death and return to the Gu Clan. You are the biological daughter of the Holy Maiden, and no one dares to snub you when you come to the Gu Clan. ”

Lin Youran shook his head: "It's too late, now the Gu clan has a new saint." Do you think they will still tolerate me, the daughter of the former saint? Now I am not going to go back, so they will agree to those requests you made, in fact, Mama, you know in your heart, I have no way out, so you let Wu Tuo go to the prince's side to help him. ”

Now she is no longer the narrow-minded woman in the previous life, who only saw the small profits in front of her. She has seen many things more thoroughly than before, and only the crown prince and Prince Yi are the most promising in this battle for the throne.

vented the dissatisfaction in his heart, and his mood eased slightly. She sat down in her chair and sighed faintly.

"Things have come to this point, and all I can do is help the prince control the entire Guogong Mansion." After speaking, she looked at Mama Dong: "How can you make the soul control Gu complete as soon as possible?" ”

Mama Dong had a little distress in her eyes: "If you use people's hearts and blood to cultivate, the soul control Gu will grow rapidly." ”

Lin leisurely pursed his lips, and seemed to have made a major decision. She got up and walked into the inner room, and when she came out again, she had a sharp dagger in her hand.

"Miss, are you going to use your own heart and blood to raise this soul control Gu?"

Mama Dong looked at the extremely sharp dagger and looked at her with wide eyes. How important this blood is to a person, not only how painful it is to take the blood of the heart, but also how much it can make people's bodies weak for a long time if they lose a drop of blood. What's more, one drop is used every day.

Lin Youran nodded, she pursed her lips, and said after a long time: "I have calculated for so long and paid so much." If there is no return, it will be a loss. Mama, you said that if this Soul Control Gu is cultivated with heart and blood, then the person who pays the heart and blood will be compatible with the main Gu, so that the rest of the sub-Gu will obey it. And the main Gu will also be perfectly integrated with the people who have put in their hearts and souls, and will not cause any bad price to the body. ”

"Yes, but this painstaking effort is not so easy to take......"

Lin Youran stuffed the dagger into Mama Dong's hand and lowered her eyes slightly: "I know Mama Dong, you can do it." ”

Mama Dong looked at Lin Youran, who had a resolute attitude, and suddenly overlapped with the figure of the master. The little master's temperament is really exactly the same as the master's.

"Okay, but the old slave still needs to prepare something. When things are ready, it's time to get your heart's blood. ”

Now that the young lady has decided, all she can do is to alleviate her pain as much as possible.

Lin leisurely pursed her lips: "Then it's troublesome." ”

"The old slave went down first to prepare things." Mama Dong's lips moved, and then she turned around and left the room.

Lin Youran stood in front of the window, and his eyes fell in the direction of the East Palace. Her white fingers clenched the lattice, her knuckles slightly white. She had prepared the most important things for the crown prince, and hoped that he would not disappoint her.

At this time, the East Palace was shrouded in a layer of rain, and Concubine Mu, who was very affectionate on weekdays, had a big quarrel with His Royal Highness the Prince. The palace people didn't dare to approach, but they vaguely heard the mention of the little emperor's grandson.

Mu Wanyu sat on the bed, her hair scattered. There were tears on her charming face, and the whole person was full of depression and despair.

Mama Fu stood aside, not knowing what to say for a moment. She had all the porcelain tiles on the floor cleaned up, and then she had water and veils ready. She crouched down and wiped tears from her face.

"Concubine Niangniang, don't be too sad. His Royal Highness is also for the East Palace, and now Prince Yi is very favored and powerful. He has always been at odds with the prince, and the prince made such a decision, and he felt uncomfortable. ”

Mu Wanyu lowered her eyes slightly, sneering in her heart. Mama Fu plans for her on weekdays, but when she really has a conflict with His Royal Highness the Prince, she is still standing by His Royal Highness's side. Sure enough, it still can't be compared with his own grandmother, anyway, he has never expected anything from her.

"Mama, I understand all these truths, you let me be alone."

The rich mother moved the corners of her mouth, and finally sighed: "The old slave went to the small kitchen to take a look and make some snacks for the side concubine Niangniang that you like to eat." Be quiet and think about it. ”

Watching Mama Fu leave, Mu Wanyu raised her head, and there was a condensation in her dark eyes.

She sorted out her emotions and shouted outside: "Let the nurse bring Xuan'er over." ”

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Mu Wanyu raised her head and looked at the person who walked into the inner room, it was her grandmother who walked in with Xuan'er in her arms.

"Mama."

She called softly, and there was a bit of grievance in this voice.

Mama put the child into Mu Wanyu's arms and sat down on the low mound on the side. Fortunately, let the henchmen and maids guard outside, not afraid that anyone will hear them.

"Concubine Niangniang, Your Royal Highness wants to send the little emperor and grandson to the palace to accompany the emperor, and the old slave knows that you don't want to. But this matter may be an opportunity for the East Palace and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. ”

Mu Wanyu pursed her lips: "Mama, I know all this." But I don't want His Highness to use our children as bargaining chips, and I know in my heart what the situation is now. Her eyes fell on the child in her arms, and her eyes were gentle: "I just want him to grow up safely, and I don't want him to be pulled into the whirlpool of royal competition at such a young age." ”

She looked at the child's sweet and simple smile, as if she had made a decision, she raised her head sharply, and looked at her grandmother with fixed eyes.

"Mama, you must help me."
