Chapter 108: A Chance Encounter in the Garden

After Concubine Yu left, Lingxi was no longer in the mood to go to Zichen Hall to greet Emperor Yong'an. After instructing the lotus leaf Qiaozhu not to disturb people, she took out the carved jewelry box again.

The last time she touched this box was when she was bullied by Concubine Ren in every way. When she learned that Concubine Ren was pregnant, she tried to get rid of Concubine Ren and the child in Concubine Ren's womb.

But the sudden pregnancy made her clear this idea, and she never touched the jewelry box again. First, she is afraid of retribution, afraid that what she will do during pregnancy will bring misfortune to the fetus in her womb. The second is that this box is full of vicious things, and if you are not careful, you will hurt yourself who was pregnant with the dragon heir at that time.

Later, the five princes were born safely, and they grew up peacefully, and Lingxi would not touch this box.

But now......

Lingxi remembered the word on the mahogany table, and the chill lingered over his body.

'You', Concubine Yu wrote the word 'you' on the table. Concubine Yu used all means, and finally found that all the evidence that could be found now pointed to Lingxi.

The evidence is naturally all forged, and it is done seamlessly, except for a slight difference in time. If Emperor Yong'an personally ordered someone to investigate now, he would definitely be able to find out some clues. But if this matter is blurred for a few more days, it is really, powerless to turn over!

If Lingxi hadn't broken through Mo Liu's psychological defense line that day and cleared his innocence, I am afraid that once the matter of smallpox was revealed, Emperor Yong'an would not have listened to her say a word at all.

Lingxi suddenly understood why Empress Zhu changed her attitude to speak for herself when she was in the Changxia Palace, and why, the evidence to frame her had not yet been made.

The more Lingxi thought about it, the colder his heart became. It's really a good means, it's really kind-hearted, Queen Zhu is so jealous of her that she will get rid of her at any cost, just for the position of the prince who Lingxi doesn't bother to break free at all.

Emperor Yong'an has a total of five princes, except for the eldest prince Li Lingyun and the second prince Li Lingfeng, the third prince Li Lingyu has dementia, the fourth prince has died, and the rest is the fifth prince Li Lingyi, who is deeply favored by Emperor Yong'an.

In fact, it is impossible for the fifth prince to win the position of prince, because Lingxi's status is low. But at the family banquet in the palace on the fifth day of the fifth month of May, Emperor Yong'an revealed intentionally or unintentionally that he wanted to point out a doll to the five princes. And the doll must be the Dong family with a prominent family.

If the five princes really married Miss Sun, who had only been in the Dong family for six months, then the Dong family would naturally become a powerful support behind the five princes, and it would be possible to win the position of the prince.

At the family banquet, Emperor Yong'an just mentioned it in passing, but the concubines looked at the five princes with another meaning.

Lingxi looked at the small bottles of different colors in front of him and fell into deep thought. Now that she is in a dead end, how is she going to get out?

After thinking about it for a long time, Lingxi decided to discuss this matter with Xian Guifei. Xian Guifei has always been thoughtful, if she tells Xian Guifei about this, Xian Guifei will definitely help her prepare.

Lingxi used very little for dinner, and he didn't play much with the five princes, so he went to bed early.

Lingxi was sure that Emperor Yong'an would come again tonight, and she made up her mind to talk to Emperor Yong'an for a while. No matter what the reason, she will no longer be angry with Emperor Yong'an. Only when Emperor Yongan favors her, others will scruple in their hearts when they attack her. Only Emperor Yong'an favors her, and when others frame her, Emperor Yong'an will have a little more partiality in his heart.

This trace of favoritism is her lifesaver.

It was night, and the spirit rhino sank again in **. She clung to Emperor Yong'an's arm like a suffocating fish, unable to find anything else in her brain except the primal instinct for breathing.

At the end of the day, Emperor Yong'an got up and left as he had done a few days ago, but when he turned over, he was grabbed by Lingxi's wrist.

Lingxi's little hands were weak and boneless, and he couldn't feel the slightest strength when he held it on Emperor Yong'an's arm.

Lingxi's eyes hadn't opened yet, but he muttered, "Your Majesty ......"

Emperor Yong'an thought that Lingxi was whispering, so he only moved lightly, not wanting to disturb Lingxi's sleep. But who knew that Lingxi's next sentence was, "Your Majesty, the concubine is wrong, and I don't dare anymore." ”

After speaking, like a cat, he was entrusted into the arms of Emperor Yong'an, and exhaled like an orchid, "The concubine will no longer make a small temperament......"

Emperor Yong'an lay down beside Lingxi again, looked at the tender white neck shin of a few bright red strawberries in Lingxi, crawled in Lingxi's ear and asked, "What are you wrong?" ”

"Concubine," Lingxi buried his face in Emperor Yong'an's chest and whispered, "Concubines shouldn't pretend to be asleep when the emperor came to see the concubines, and they shouldn't play petty with the emperor." ”

"Are you still angry?"

"I'm not angry." Lingxi rubbed Emperor Yong'an's chest, "The concubine doesn't dare anymore......"

Emperor Yong'an chuckled softly in Lingxi's ear, and then said with a straight face, "I am also at fault, but I promise you that I will never disbelieve you again." ”

The air spit out by Emperor Yong'an fell on Lingxi's ears, itchy, wet, Lingxi sighed, and then said, "With the emperor's words, the concubines will not be angry......

Emperor Yong'an looked at the spirit rhino like a boiled shrimp, and his eyes were confused again.

Outside the screen, Lotus Leaf whispered, "Your Majesty, it's already two o'clock, and Gonggong Feng is already waiting outside the palace." ”

Emperor Yong'an withdrew the palm he had brought, pushed the Lingxi who had fallen asleep from his arms, and turned over and got out of bed.

When the spirit rhino woke up again, it was already close to the end of the day. When I opened my eyes and looked at the silent dormitory, I was a little confused.

Lotus Ye walked in lightly, and saw that Lingxi lifted the bed curtain and was in a daze, so he said softly, "Niangniang, do you want to get up?" ”

Lingxi nodded, "Wait for me to change my clothes." ”

Lotus Ye snickered, "Niangniang doesn't change her clothes by herself?" ”

In the past few days, Lingxi was afraid of being found by Lotus Leaf and Qiaozhu, so he got up by himself.

Lingxi's face was teased by the lotus leaf, and he blushed, and said, "You all know about it......

Lingxi had already heard what Lotus Ye said outside the screen in a daze, He Lotus Leaf and Qiaozhu had long known that Emperor Yong'an had stayed here at night, no wonder she asked herself to go to bed and change clothes and bathe in the past few days, and Lotus Leaf and Qiaozhu didn't say much.

Thinking that this matter of himself had already been known by Lotus Ye and Qiaozhu, Lingxi complained again, "I really don't know if I am your master, or the emperor is your master." ”

The ruffle changed the clothes for the Lingxi, and said with a smile on his cheeks, "The emperor specially ordered, saying that the mother should not wake you up when she is tired, and the slave and Qiaozhu will obey your fate." Lotus Ye argued again, "Besides, Niangniang didn't ask the slave and Qiaozhu, how can the slave know that the slave doesn't know that the slave and the maid know?" ”

"I'm going to talk back more and more!" Lingxi pinched the lotus leaf's armpit lightly and heavily, and said angrily, "It's all Qiaozhu, and it has brought you all the bad." ”

Lingxi stayed in the Lingyan Hall for five or six days, and the marks on his neck gradually faded.

On the 25th day of June in the sixth year of Yong'an, Queen Zhu was exempted from the concubines in the harem due to the cold.

After lunch, Lingxi saw that the weather outside was good, so he asked Xia Qing Xia Tong to hug the five princes, and he took lotus leaves, Qiaozhu, Xiao Wuzi, Xiao Renzi, and a few little palace maids, and the group went to Guangyang Palace to visit the noble concubines. One is to catch up with Xian Gui Concubine, and the other is to talk about his own affairs to Xian Gui Concubine, and the two can discuss it.

These days, Lingxi has slept restlessly about this matter, and the person has lost a lot of weight.

When he walked to the imperial garden, Lingxi looked at the elated five princes, and suddenly stopped the sedan chair.

Now that the dementia of the three princes is revealed, if the noble concubines see the five princes, will they be touched by the scene and sad?

At this moment, a little eunuch led two men who looked like women to pass through the imperial garden. When the little eunuch saw Lingxi, he came forward with the two women to greet Lingxi.

When I walked into the Lingxi, I saw that only one of them was wearing a life woman costume, and she was wearing a dark green court dress that was not encroached upon, with a morning bun on her head, and a hairpin with a three-tailed phoenix on her left bun.

The three tails are worn by relatives and daughters who have not been enshrined by the emperor.

Behind the woman was a girl in a baby pink embroidered apricot blossom shirt with her head hanging down and her hair in a bun. The girl followed behind the woman, raising her eyes and carefully looking at the spirit rhino who was sitting on the sedan chair and had not yet gotten out of the sedan chair.

The little eunuch walked in front of Lingxi, knelt down and saluted, "The slave sees the Ying Concubine Niangniang, the Niangniang Wanfu Jin'an." ”

After listening to the little eunuch's words, the woman's body couldn't help but tremble, and she raised her head and looked at Lingxi carefully for a while, before she pulled the girl to kneel down and saluted under the reminder of the little eunuch, knelt down and said, "The concubine is from the family, see the concubine Niangniang." ”

The girl said, "The folk girl Situ Xiu, see Ying Concubine Niangniang." ”

After listening to the girl's words, Lingxi understood that the two people in front of him must be from the Situ family. After letting the little eunuch get up, Yingying walked in front of the woman and the girl, bent down to help them up personally, and said with a soft smile, "No need to be polite, Madame is the maiden family of the noble concubine?" ”

The woman bent her knees again, and said with a smile, "Hui Ying's words are exactly." ”

Because it is the family of the noble concubine, Lingxi will naturally not lose face in etiquette, so he immediately withdrew a jade bracelet of good color that he wore on Hao's wrist, and gave it to Situ Xiu, "This palace saw that Miss Situ looked delicate, but I felt that I was very fated, and because I was in a hurry to leave the palace, I didn't bring anything good." This bracelet was given to the palace by Mrs. Mei's concubine back then, and the palace gave her to Miss Situ. ”

Situ Xiu hurriedly knelt down to thank him, and Mrs. Situ said, "Thanks to the love of Concubine Ying." ”

The fifth prince was in the nurse's arms, either hot or annoyed, and suddenly made a noise.

Lingxi smiled and said to Mrs. Situ, "That's the prince of this palace, the fifth prince." ”

Mrs. Situ hurriedly pulled Situ Xiu to salute the five princes. After the ceremony, he took out a white square jade pendant carved with a complex pattern from his arms, and said in front of Lingxi, "The concubine has nothing good, and this small jade brand also asks the mother to smile and let the five princes play with it." ”

Lingxi nodded lightly to the lotus leaf, and the lotus leaf stepped forward to accept it.

The little eunuch spoke out at the right time, and whispered in a sharp voice, "Ying Concubine Niangniang, Xian Gui Niangniang is still waiting in the palace, and the slave led Mrs. Situ and Miss Situ over." ”

After Lingxi nodded, the little eunuch took Mrs. Situ and Situ Xiufu to retire.

When the three of them walked away, Lingxi got on the sedan chair and said to Xiao Wuzi, "Sister, there is a distinguished guest, let's go back to the palace and go back tomorrow." ”

Qiaozhu looked at the direction where Mrs. Situ and Miss Situ were going, and said to herself in confusion, "Then why is Mrs. Situ's appearance so familiar?" ”
