Wei Ning raised her hand and wiped the tears on her face with her sleeve, her face had returned to calm.

"I'm fine." She shook her head at Shu Jin, "Put your clothes away." ”

Seeing Wei Ning's lonely expression, Shu Jin couldn't bear to ask again. After getting Wei Ning's instructions, he quickly put away his clothes with his hands and feet.

Gyeongju Castle, inside the Imperial Palace.

Shangguan Yan'er sat behind a carved rosewood desk in Yixiang Palace, holding a brush in her hand, and was concentrating on writing.

The palace maid next to her Xu was standing for a long time, her body was a little shaky, and the grandmother who came in saw it, and couldn't help but step forward and pat the palace maid's forehead with her hand, and opened her mouth to scold: "Cheap girl, you dare to doze off when you stand next to the queen's mother, don't you want to live!" ”

The palace maid who was beaten fell to the ground all of a sudden, very aggrieved, and immediately cried. Shangguan Yan'er raised her head, glanced at her, and said, "Go down, you don't need to serve." ”

"Slave, thank you, Queen." Seeing that Shangguan Yan'er did not punish her, the palace maid was grateful, and immediately knelt down and kowtowed, and went out again and again to thank her.

When the grandmother saw that the palace maid had gone out, she "spitted", turned her head to Shangguan Yan'er and said, "Niangniang is also too good-natured." This kind of minion is lazy, and he should be severely punished. ”

"Forget it." Shangguan Yan'er put down the brush in her hand and said to the grandmother: "Grandma Li, you are still the same." It's not the same as it used to be. Let's be cautious in the palace now. Something happened again, but no one could save us. ”

"Niangniang, do you plan to spend it with the emperor like this?" Mama Li saw that Shangguan Yan'er had lost a lot of weight over time, and the emperor basically didn't come to Yixiang Palace now, and for the queen, it was like house arrest. But the queen didn't have any objection to this, and kept silent.

Mama Li couldn't stand it anymore, and persuaded Shangguan Yan'er on the side.

"Niangniang, although the old slave doesn't know what happened between you and the emperor, there is no contradiction between this husband and wife. If there is anything, you can talk to the emperor about it. If the mother really can't wipe her face, let the old slave say it. ”

Looking at Mama Li's worried expression, Shangguan Yan'er sighed softly. Mama Li took care of her since she was a child, and she has been with her until now, among the people who are serving, her identity is naturally different, and even the emperor respects her a little on weekdays.

But how can the matter between her and the emperor be described as a small contradiction between husband and wife.

"The emperor is the emperor of everyone, and this palace and him are not ordinary couples." Shangguan Yan'er shook her head when she said this.

Mama Li saw Shangguan Yan'er's solemn face and her face full of loneliness, and she was like the dignified and dignified queen in the past.

Mama Li couldn't bear it, she saw the big queen since she was a child, she has always been high and domineering, this is the first time, she saw Shangguan Yan'er have such a frustrated look on her face.

"But the queen has been silent like this, ignoring the affairs of the palace, is it the solution?"

Mama Li didn't give up, and saw that Shangguan Yan'er was just sitting on a carved rosewood stool behind the bookcase, looking ahead with blank eyes, and didn't say a word.

When Mama Li saw this situation, she couldn't help but feel anxious.

She stepped forward and walked a few steps, came to Shangguan Yan'er, approached Shangguan Yan'er, and said softly: "Niangniang, let the old slave arrogantly say that if there is no help from Niangniang's mother's family, where would the emperor be today." But what has the emperor done over the years? Even if Niangniang doesn't think about herself, she has to think about the entire Shangguan family. ”

Shangguan Yan'er's face changed instantly when she heard what Mama Li said.

"Bold!" Shangguan Yan'er scolded sharply.

Mama Li hurriedly knelt down and bowed her head silently.

"Mama Li, I respect you as the person who has served me since I was a child, but it doesn't mean that you can talk about the emperor in vain." Shangguan Yan'er stood up and looked at Mama Li kneeling in front of her, her chest rose and fell, and she trembled with anger.

The emperor said these days that she had been working too hard lately, so let her take care of her body in Yixiang Palace. In fact, it's like imprisoning her.

At present, the power to manage the harem has fallen into the hands of Shen Guifei, and in Yixiang Palace, whether it is the master, the palace maid or the eunuch, it is firmly controlled by the emperor. The palace gate was guarded by guards, and everyone who entered and exited the palace gate had to report to the emperor's chief of guard. The emperor used this thunderous method, but did not say anything to her, only one queen had been working hard recently, and her unwell hat was buckled on her head.

Shangguan Yan'er closed her eyes, and Shen Guifei's smug face seemed to appear in her mind.

This is the look she hates the most.

"Mama Li, do you know what is the most taboo for the emperor today?" Shangguan Yan'er asked Mama Li, who was kneeling at her feet and bowing her head silently.

"The minions don't know." Mama Li bowed her head and replied.

"The most taboo thing for the emperor is that others think that he is the emperor, relying on the palace and the mother's family of the palace!" Shangguan Yan'er said this sentence almost word by word. Mama Li knelt underneath and listened to the queen's stern tone, and her body began to tremble.

"For so many years, this palace has not come out. What do you think it's all about? Is it because the emperor can't do it, or can't this palace give birth? ”

Shangguan Yan'er shook her head: "No, it's because the emperor doesn't want to let this palace live!" ”

"In the former dynasty, there was a secret medicine. After the man takes it, intercourse can prevent the woman from becoming pregnant. For so many years, every time the emperor had sex with the palace, he would take this secret medicine. The palace and the emperor have been married for so many years, how can they not see through the emperor's suspicion of the palace? ”

Mama Li listened to the queen's words, and her face showed a surprised expression. She raised her head and said in a trembling voice: "But for so many years, only Concubine Shen gave birth to a prince. Could it be that the emperor is targeting, not only the mother? ”

Shangguan Yan'er laughed, with tears in the corners of her eyes. After laughing, she sat back in her chair in a dejected manner.

"Go down. Mama Lee. ”

"Now is not the time to fight for a moment, this palace needs to be quiet in order to think about the future."

Mama Li saw Shangguan Yan'er close her eyes, leaned back in her chair, and didn't want to say anything more to her. He answered, "Yes." And he retreated.

There was silence in the palace, Shangguan Yan'er sat quietly on the chair for a moment, and then took out the secret letter sent to her by Li Sen from under the desk.

The secret letter reads: Wei Lingyu is defeated, and there is no forgiveness for killing.

Shangguan Yan'er looked at the bright red characters written in cinnabar on it, and suddenly felt very bored.

She gently polished the large letters on it with her armor with hollow gems, and suddenly raised her hand to tear the secret letter to shreds.

Shangguan Yan'er's eyes were cold, and she called out: "Liubao, you come in." ”

Lin Changsheng was writing a prescription in the Tai Hospital, when suddenly the little eunuch came in and said, "Imperial Doctor Lin, the emperor announced your past." ”

"Okay." Lin Changsheng put down the brush in his hand, put the written prescription into his pocket, picked up the medicine box, and followed the little eunuch beside the emperor out of the hospital.

When he came to the Taihe Palace, Lin Changsheng saw layers of guards guarding outside the palace. couldn't help frowning, and said casually: "Why did the guards in this palace suddenly become so many?" I only asked the emperor for peace yesterday, and I hadn't seen so many people at that time. ”

"Lord Lin doesn't know." The little eunuch who walked in front of Lin Changsheng had a thin voice. He said as he walked: "Now it's almost the Chinese New Year, and most of the concubines in the palace have relatives who come to the palace to visit the mothers in the palace. Therefore, at this time, the palace must strengthen its precautions. Especially the palace where the emperor lives, it is necessary to send more manpower. In case someone sneaks in and hurts the master in the palace. ”

The little eunuch explained in detail, and Lin Changsheng walked behind him, silent. When he arrived at the gate of the Taihe Palace, the little eunuch turned his head and said to Lin Changsheng: "Lord Lin, wait a minute, I'll go in and pass the word." ”

Lin Changsheng nodded, and the little eunuch came out not long after entering, and said to Lin Changsheng, "Lord Lin, please." ”

Lin Changsheng walked into the Taihe Hall and saw that there were curling cigarettes floating in the incense burner in the hall, and it was ambergris incense burning. The taste was very strong, and Lin Changsheng couldn't help frowning, feeling that his abdomen was full of this taste.

"See the emperor." Lin Changsheng stopped somewhere in the hall, knelt down in front of the man lying on the bright yellow couch, and saluted.

The emperor squinted slightly, he held a large cigarette holder in his hand, and the top cigarette holder was stuffed with tobacco. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and spit it out, as if enjoying it.

"You're here."

A hoarse voice rang out.

Lin Changsheng raised his head and saw that the emperor had already sat up, and there was a woman wearing a purple snow fox cotton coat and a white floral pleated skirt standing beside him. The woman's clothes were a little messy, and she was buttoning the placket of her clothes, and when she saw Lin Changsheng, she smiled very embarrassedly and stepped aside.

"Get up."

Lin Changsheng stood up, he seemed to be used to this scene, and he was not surprised. The emperor put the cigarette holder in his hand on the edge of the couch and knocked on it, saying, "It's been a while since you entered the palace." The elixir you made last time, how are you making it now? ”

"Back to the emperor." Lin Changsheng frowned and replied respectfully: "This Soul Devouring Pill is extremely domineering. And no one has ever tried it before. Weichen considered it again and again, but still felt that it was necessary to debug a few more flavors of medicine before the finished product could be produced. ”

The Emperor nodded, put down the cigarette holder he was holding, and reached out to take the woman standing next to him into his arms. Although this situation is no longer strange, but in the end there is still a little shame, the woman is a little embarrassed, pushing the emperor's chest with her hand, and saying with disgust: "Your Majesty." ”

The emperor pinched a strand of the woman's hair, put it between his nose and sniffed it intoxicatingly. He said in a deep voice: "Aiqing, you said that I only have ten years to live, even if I use the pill to continue my life after ten years, I won't live for five more years." ”

The woman in the emperor's arms was originally twisting and pinching, pretending to be coquettish in his arms, but when she heard what the emperor said, she suddenly stopped, and her face changed from the laughter just now to solemnity.
