Chapter 110: Sudden Awakening

Remember [ .] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!

Hongtang didn't speak again, she knew that no matter how much she said, it would be useless, and Miss was enchanted by Lin Changsheng.

She carefully helped Shi Wan'er into the house, and after Shi Wan'er sat down, Hongtang said to Shi Wan'er: "When the young master left, he once asked the slave maid to prepare silver carbon for the old man. Miss, look ......."

Hongtang didn't continue to talk about this, and Shi Wan'er immediately understood what she meant.

"You give my father-in-law the silver carbon in my house."

"Miss, no." Hongtang guessed that Shi Wan'er would say this, and immediately stopped her.

"When we came out of the house, we had very little money left. You can't afford to use this silver carbon on weekdays......"

"Red Begonia. I'm not cold. Shi Wan'er shook her head and said, "My father-in-law is an old man, and his health is not good, so this silver carbon should be used for him." It's just that he cherishes me because I am pregnant with a child, so he refuses my kindness. ”

"Miss, you also know that you are pregnant. Why do you still care so much about yourself? Hongtang said anxiously, "Doctor Lin treats you like that, you still ...... like that"

"Father-in-law, he is an old man, I am his daughter-in-law, I should be filial to him, and it has nothing to do with how Changsheng treats me." Shi Wan'er interrupted what Hongtang said. He continued: "That's it, you put the silver carbon in the public house. ”

"Miss."

Seeing that Wan'er didn't want to say more, Hongtang could only do it, she hated Lin Changsheng so much that her teeth itched, but she was helpless.

"How can this work!" When Mama Li heard that Hongtang was going to move the silver carbon in the young lady's house to the old man, she immediately stood up and screamed.

"Shhhh Hongtang made a silent gesture to Mama Li, "Miss is still sleeping inside." ”

"Hongtang, I told you that this is not good, you have to persuade Miss well." Mama Li said anxiously, "Miss is still pregnant with a child." ”

"You don't know Miss's temperament. How is she to the young master, all the time, haven't you understood? ”

That's really willing to take out the heart and lungs, let alone a mere silver carbon?

Hongtang didn't say the latter sentence, but she was secretly distressed by Shi Wan'er.

Mama Li sighed and said, "This silver is not enough, and now it's almost the New Year, and the things that should be purchased are still not purchased." If you want to buy some more silver carbon, you can't. ”

"Of course." Hongtang said. In order to catch medicine for my father-in-law, I couldn't make ends meet. Now she and Mama Li have to embroider handkerchiefs and tie up bunkers in addition to daily life and housework, and take them out to exchange for some silver taels. The young lady usually helps to make these gadgets to supplement the family.

"Why don't you go to my room and give my quilt to my father-in-law, and the silver carbon should be moved back to the lady's room." Mama Li said.

"How's that going to work?" Hongtang was anxious again, "Take away your quilt, you only have a thin blanket left, how can you survive the winter?" ”

"My father-in-law's place I remember was just a thin quilt. We don't have many quilts left, and Miss is particularly afraid of the cold in winter. These things are divided by a few people, and they are gone. ”

Hongtang was silent, and then said: "The old man's room smells of medicine, and I am afraid that the young lady will be sick, so the young lady has never entered the old father-in-law's house except for the first time." I'm afraid I don't know that my father-in-law only covers a thin quilt after winter. Mama Li, if you say that Miss knows about this, I'm afraid she will be angry. ”

"It's okay to be angry." Mama Li shook her head. "We have limited things in our hands, and we must take care of Miss first if it is good. I was afraid that my father-in-law would feel cold, so he burned black charcoal. I didn't think that he felt that the black charcoal smelled strong again, and told us to put it out again. ”

"Actually, if he doesn't burn the black charcoal, he can give it to us, and we can sleep very cold at night." Hongtang said.

"Don't die." Mama Li felt angry and ridiculous, she nodded Hongtang's forehead, and said, "Hurry up and pick up the quilt in my house, we still have to keep this black charcoal, maybe we will use it one day." ”

Hongtang didn't approve of Mama Li doing this, but Mama Li insisted on keeping the silver carbon for Miss. So I had to go to the house and take Mama Li's quilt to my father-in-law's house. Thinking that from today onwards, I will have to squeeze in a bed with Mama Li to sleep, and the two of them will cover the same quilt and sleep together warmly.

Shi Wan'er was making a child's little belly pocket in the house. Seeing Hongtang coming in again with a charcoal basin, he asked, "Why, didn't you send the silver carbon to my father-in-law's house?" ”

Hongtang put down the charcoal basin, patted her hands stained with charcoal ash, and said, "Mama Li gave her quilt to her father-in-law and asked me to bring the silver carbon back." Miss, are you at ease? ”

"Oh......" Shi Wan'er pondered for a while, and then asked, "What about Mama Li?" I remember that she had only a thin blanket except for the quilt. ”

"At night we slept cuddled together. Miss, don't worry, Mama Li said that it is warmer for two people to sleep together. ”

Shi Wan'er rubbed her hands, there was no charcoal pot in the room, and she did feel a lot colder. When I used to be a young lady at home, all the best carrot charcoal was burned in winter, when did I suffer this sin? And now, being able to burn silver and charcoal is already very good.

"Then put it there."

Shi Wan'er didn't refuse again, her physique was afraid of cold, and she was very afraid of cold in winter. You can't miss this silver carbon.

Seeing that Shi Wan'er didn't insist anymore, Hongtang finally breathed a long sigh of relief. At the same time, he secretly hated Lin Changsheng in his heart.

When Wei Lingfeng stepped into the palace alone, he already felt that something was secretly wrong.

There were more than many guards in the palace than the last time he came.

He frequented the palace and became familiar with the palace guards. Now that I take a closer look, the familiar faces from before are gone, and I can't help but be secretly frightened.

The emperor won't encounter any accidents now, right?

Wei Lingfeng thought as he followed the eunuch into the Taihe Palace.

The emperor asked him to discuss in the side hall behind the Taihe Palace.

As soon as he walked into the hall, Wei Lingfeng sensed that something was wrong with the emperor sitting on the dragon chair.

The whole person looked sickly, his eye sockets were deep, his eyes were hollow, he leaned on the dragon chair obliquely, and saw Wei Lingfeng coming, but his face did not show any expression.

Wei Lingfeng knelt down and saluted the emperor.

"Weichen see the emperor."

"Flat." Wei Lingfeng raised his head, and actually saw a little saliva flowing obliquely from the emperor's mouth, and he was instantly stunned.

The emperor didn't feel this abnormality, he still leaned back in his chair lazily like this, and said to Wei Lingfeng: "Listen to Shenfu, you have something to meet, Aiqing, let's say, what's the matter?" ”

After the emperor said this, his hand was on the chair, and Wei Lingfeng noticed that the emperor's arm was still trembling slightly.

Wei Lingfeng frowned, keenly feeling that there was someone behind the screen behind the dragon chair.

He has been practicing martial arts all year round, and his sense of hearing and smell is naturally different from ordinary people. In addition to the sound of the emperor's breathing, there was obviously another person in this side hall.

The sound of inhaling and inhaling was faint, and Wei Lingfeng guessed that it was a woman sitting behind the Eight Treasures Linglong screen of the dragon chair.

Could it be Ying'er?

Wei Lingfeng felt that it was very possible. Seeing that Wei Lingfeng didn't continue to speak, the emperor called him again: "Aiqing? ”

Wei Lingfeng bowed deeply to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen specially entered the palace today for one thing. ”

"Aiqing, please speak." The emperor said.

"Recently, there have been repeated communications from the frontier, saying that the people of the frontier tribes are unbearable to the barbarian invasion. This matter has been inconclusive since the beginning of autumn this year. Weichen was worried about the people of the frontier departments, and specially wanted to come to ask the emperor, how should this matter be handled? ”

The emperor frowned slightly when he heard what Wei Lingfeng said, and said, "Hasn't General Li always been in charge of this matter?" Why, so far he hasn't given a concrete result? ”

Wei Lingfeng knew that the emperor said that General Li was naturally Li Sen. also knows that Li Senquan leans towards the government and the opposition, and he holds the power alone in important military and political affairs.

Wei Lingfeng bowed deeply to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the minister knows that this matter should not be handled by the minister. However, the matter has dragged on for several months, and the people in the border areas have been living in dire straits. Recently, there has been an influx of refugees from the city, most of whom have come from the frontier. For some reason, General Lee has been turning a blind eye to these things. Wei Chen saw that those refugees were hungry and yellow-skinned, and their bodies were in tatters, so he really felt pity and couldn't bear it. Your Majesty, if General Li is busy with government affairs, can he hand over this matter to Weichen? Wechen will definitely do his best to deal with and resettle those refugees. ”

The emperor coughed a few times when he heard what Wei Lingfeng said, and said, "I know everything you said. I've been in poor health lately, and I really don't have time to pay attention to it. Tomorrow, I will announce General Li to enter the palace and discuss it well. I will leave the matter of resettlement of refugees to you, and I hope Aiqing can handle this matter properly. ”

When the emperor said this, the saliva on his lips had begun to drip down one after another. Wei Lingfeng didn't dare to look at him all the time, but he always felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the emperor except for his expression that was almost weird.

"Stand down."

When the emperor said this, he was basically almost drowsy. At this time, a eunuch came in from outside the door, stretched out his hand to Wei Lingfeng, and said, "Lord Wei, please." ”

Wei Lingfeng looked at the emperor, and the eunuch saw that Wei Lingfeng's face was full of hesitation, as if he was afraid that he would say something more, and kept urging him to go.

Wei Lingfeng had no choice but to walk out of the hall.

It wasn't until I was about to reach the palace gate that I suddenly realized.

I see.

No wonder he always felt that the emperor's voice was weird.

Because that voice is not the emperor at all!

Once upon a time, he had heard that there was a secret technique in the Western Regions that could manipulate people's minds and make the manipulated completely obey their orders.

Wei Lingfeng had encountered such a strange thing in the early years, a person who fell into this secret technique would completely lose his mind, and the manipulated person could not only make the manipulated obey his orders, but also imitate the voice of the manipulated.
