Chapter 340: Come and See You
After the fifth princess left, Lingxi buried herself in the bed for a long, long time.
She didn't know how to describe her mood at this time, she just felt that King Ning had become her nightmare, a lingering nightmare.
At night, a strange fragrance wafted into the Falling Snow Pavilion.
Lingxi woke up in half sleep, held his breath in time, and then grabbed the brocade quilt and covered his mouth and nose.
The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground outside the dormitory came, and Lingxi knew that it was a lotus leaf or a bamboo guarding outside that was fascinated by the incense.
After about a cup of tea, footsteps came from a distance.
By the light of the unextinguished candles in the dormitory, Lingxi saw through the two layers of water-pink silk veil curtains that King Ning, dressed in a cyan robe, was walking in the direction of his bed.
Lingxi's heart was beating as if it was about to jump out of his chest. The brain, which was already painless, began to buzz again.
Just as King Ning was about to reach out and lift the curtain of the bed, Lingxi shouted coldly, "Presumptuous! ”
King Ning was stunned when he heard this, put his hands behind his back, and said with a smile, "Since you are sick, why don't you rest early?" ”
Lingxi didn't answer King Ning's words, just moved his body and curled up into a ball in the innermost part of the bed.
King Ning cooled the small table next to the bed, and sat in front of Lingxi's bed, facing Lingxi across the curtain.
Lingxi looked at King Ning, who was close at hand, clutched the brocade quilt in his hand tightly, and frowned, "What are you doing?" ”
"I heard you're sick, come and see you." King Ning replied calmly, as if he had come not to the bedroom of his father's imperial concubine, but to the bedroom of his own concubine.
"King Lao Ranning, this palace is very good......
King Ning ignored the disgust in Ling Xi's tone, chuckled, and said, "Since it's very good, let's talk about business, you have already seen what I asked Shen Feng to bring." It's been two days since five days, how are you thinking about it? ”
Lingxi took his eyes off King Ning's body and raised his eyes to see the diamond-shaped engraving above the bed.
After a few turns of the buzzing brain, Lingxi asked, "Can you do what you write?" ”
"Since I promised you, of course I will do it." King Ning played with a piece of jade pendant tied around his waist and said with a smile, "As a mother, isn't what you are most worried about is the future of your children?" I will ensure that they will be prosperous for the rest of their lives, and that they will live a carefree life in this life. The tenth royal sister was born as a princess, I will not interfere in her marriage, and her concubine is chosen by herself. ”
Lingxi narrowed his eyes lightly, was silent for a long time, and said to King Ning, "I don't want to be the queen mother, the fifth princess, the fifth princess, the tenth princess, the tenth prince is young, I want to take them out of the palace, away from the capital, to live in the fief of the five princes in the south of the Yangtze River." My four children, the marriage is all up to them, you can't interfere. ”
"Yes." King Ning responded happily, "If you are the queen mother, then you can only move to the palace to live." If you don't have the title of queen mother, you can live in his fief with the five princes. I promise you all this. Didn't you always want to be free, I'll give it to you. ”
Lingxi sat up in the bed, stretched out his right hand under the embroidered pillow, and said to King Ning, "You go, the day after tomorrow, you let Shen Feng come to get the phoenix order." ”
"Refreshing." King Ning laughed and stood up from the bed.
But instead of leaving, he reached out again and slowly lifted the curtain.
In the bed, Lingxi held a brocade quilt to his chest, and held a shining silver hairpin in his right hand against his delicate neck and shins.
Seeing that King Ning's eyes were stunned, Lingxi put a sneer on the corner of his mouth, "It's late at night, please take care of King Ning." ”
King Ning looked at Lingxi's stubborn little face, and laughed deeply, with a bit of sarcasm in his tone, "You think highly of yourself." ”
Lingxi's right hand was slightly forced, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became bright, "Why don't you think highly of yourself?" ”
Looking at the little bright red oozing from the white neck and shin of the Lingxi, King Ning put down the bed curtain and said in a cold tone, "This king does what he says, and if he says he will give you freedom, he will give you freedom!" ”
Then he turned around and walked away.
Lingxi watched King Ning walk out of the Luoxue Pavilion before putting down the silver hairpin in his hand and burying himself in the brocade quilt, like a cat.
On October 15 of the tenth year of Yong'an, the first thing Lingxi did when he got up early was to summon Ye Jingyan to meet him.
On October 16 of the tenth year of Yong'an, Xiao Wuzi, who had been away from the palace for two years, followed Ye Jingyan back to the palace.
After Xiao Wuzi returned to the palace, he heard that Xiao Yingzi and Hanyan were buried in the fire, and he couldn't help but have red eyes behind his back.
Xiao Dezi hugged Xiao Wuzi's shoulder and patted it hard, bit his lip and said, "It's good to come back!" Nowadays, there are more and more people waiting by Niangniang's side, but there are fewer and fewer people who may be trustworthy. When you come, you will be able to share with me many things. ”
Now that Lingxi is in charge of the Six Palaces, Xiao Dezi has also risen to become the second only person in the palace to Gonggong Feng.
On the sixteenth day of October in the tenth year of Yong'an, Shen Feng got the phoenix order from Lingxi's hands.
With this phoenix order, the tens of thousands of guards guarding outside the palace are useless.
When Shen Feng was about to leave, Lingxi asked aloud, "When will you start?" ”
"Three days later." Shen Feng said respectfully to Lingxi, "At that time, there may be chaos in the harem for a while, and I also ask Niangniang not to go out in the Luoxue Pavilion that day, so as not to be injured by mistake." ”
Lingxi lowered his eyes and said to Shen Feng, "Let King Ning remember the ...... he promised me."
"Since King Ning promised his mother, he will definitely do it." Shen Feng affirmed, "Please also rest assured that King Ning said that he will not disappoint Niangniang." ”
The word 'disappointed' spit out from Shen Feng's mouth and pierced Lingxi's heart, hurting as much as it hurts.
On the seventeenth day of October in the tenth year of Yong'an, Lingxi received a message from Zuo Shangshu Ye Jin Kaotuo.
There is only one sentence: There is a change in the court, stabilize the harem.
Lingxi felt sad in her heart, how much Ye Jinkao could trust her, the granddaughter who came out halfway, at this time, she dared to tell the truth about the previous dynasty, and let her stabilize everyone in the harem.
On the morning of the same day, many of the concubines in the harem came to the Luoxue Pavilion to greet Lingxi.
The government is unstable, and they have no heart to fight.
If the country changes hands, they will all become concubines and concubines, and what will they fight for at that time? At this time, they are most concerned about whether the rumors that are now circulating outside are true.
After the concubines and concubines discussed it messily, Lingxi frowned, slapped the table and shouted angrily, "You are really more and more idle, you don't think about how to teach the prince and princess all day long, you only know how to chew your tongue." In the past, it was just that, but this time you actually talked about the emperor in vain. ”
Concubine Qing relied on Lingxi to be her cousin in her heart, and said weakly, "Concubine Ye Guifei is not angry, and the concubines are also worried about the emperor's ......."
"Are you worried about the emperor or cursing the emperor!" Lingxi angrily reprimanded, "The emperor has been out of the palace for less than seven days, and you have become like this. Are all the palace rules poured out with the overnight herbal tea?! ”
Seeing this, Concubine Yu stood up, knelt down to Lingxi and said, "Ye Guifei Niangniang is angry, Ye Guifei Niangniang is angry!" ”
As soon as Concubine Yu knelt, the rest of the concubines all knelt down to Lingxi, and said in unison, "Concubine Ye is angry!" ”
Lingxi grimaced, took a sip of warm tea and moistened his throat. After putting the teacup down, he softened his tone, and said, "This palace knows that you have heard something unclean in your ears, but it is a rumor after all!" The emperor also brought an edict to the palace from the paddock yesterday, saying that it is about to enter winter, and the weather is cold and warm, and the palace wants you to pay attention to the diet, housing and transportation of several imperial heirs, and you must not be careless. ”
"Moyu Beauty." Lingxi raised his head slightly, and said to the black jade beauty who was kneeling behind, "The emperor is concerned about the dragon heir in your womb, let the palace tell you to take good care of your body." If you can give birth to a prince safely this time, then you will be promoted to the position of concubine......"
Moyu Beauty was worried and her little face immediately changed her face, she kowtowed to Lingxi again, and said, "The concubine Xie Emperor Longen, the concubine Xie Ye Guifei cares." ”
"Alright, let's all get up." Lingxi said to the concubines, "The more the emperor remembers your goodness, the more you must abide by your duties." Don't speak, don't see, don't listen. ”
All the concubines bowed down again, and said in unison to Lingxi, "Concubines, remember Ye Guifei's teachings!" ”
After all the concubines retired, Lingxi changed into light clothes under the service of lotus leaves, and came to the Changle Hall to greet Xiaohe and the Empress Dowager.
Since the incident of the second prince, the Empress Dowager Xiaohe no longer asks about the harem, but only worships the Buddha.
When Lingxi arrived, Xiaohe and the Empress Dowager had just returned from the small Buddha hall to worship the Buddha, and there was still a strong sandalwood fragrance on her body.
Seeing Lingxi coming, she stretched out her hand to Lingxi and said with a smile, "Girl, come, sit next to the mourning family." Mu'er's girl always said that you have been busy for the past two days, but she can't see you at all. ”
Lingxi held the hand of Xiaohe and the Empress Dowager, and sat down beside the Empress Dowager Xiaohe and said with a smile, "It's busy, no, I'll come to see you when I'm done." ”
"Be busy, but also pay attention to your body." The eyes of the Empress Dowager Xiaohe looked directly at Lingxi's face, raised her eyebrows and said, "Yesterday, the five princes came to greet the mourning family, saying that you made a ...... of head disease."
"It's a crime." Lingxi hurriedly smiled and replied, "I've had so many pains, and I've taken a few pairs of medicines prescribed by the Imperial Doctor, and now I'm all cured." ”
As if to confirm that his illness had been cured, Lingxi shook his head slightly, and replied in the sound of Zhucui touching, "It doesn't hurt at all now." ”
"You kid." The Empress Dowager Xiaohe patted Lingxi's hand twice, raised her eyebrows and said, "The mourning family is old, and it is not enough to take care of you, you must take care of yourself." There are a lot of chores in the harem, you don't have to do it yourself, if you can let others do it, you let others do it. ”
Lingxi nodded again and again, and said with a smile, "The concubine knows, and Da Ming'er will hand over everything in her hand to Yu Guifei to do, and the concubine will come here to accompany the ancestor when she has free time." ”
The Empress Dowager Xiaohe sighed, grabbed Lingxi's hand and said, "Girl, the mourning family has wronged you." ”
Lingxi lowered his head, his heart was sour, and he burst into tears......
