"Qingliu Guard,"

Bai Yixiu brought Ling Ling into the Yonghe Palace, Qingliu wanted to continue to follow, but was stopped by Su Shen at the entrance of the hall.

Qingliu stood at the door of the hall and looked into the hall with a worried expression, trying to determine Ling Ling's location.

"With all due respect, City Lord Ling is very safe in Yonghe Palace, you are a person from King Jing's side, so you should not stay here too long."

Su Shen reminded in a low voice, and he stared straight at Qingliu with a pair of small eyes, as if he had seen through everything.

His reminder sounded a wake-up call to Qingliu, he thought for a moment, raised his hand and saluted Su Shen, "I am tired of Gonggong Su will tell the emperor in a moment that Qingliu has to deal with other things for the prince, so he will retire first." ”

Su Shen nodded,

"Let's go."

……

Consciousness gradually returned. A touch of sandalwood wafted into his nose in a hazy way, Ling Ling only felt that the smell was very comfortable, as if he had slept very soundly, his head didn't seem to be so heavy, and his inner breath had recovered a little.

She remembered that she was in Murong Xue's Ningxue Palace before she fell asleep, and the fragrance of the room made her whole body weak, and then she seemed to faint. So, where is she now? Could it be that she has already fallen in love with Murong Xue's way?

Thinking of this, Ling Ling opened his eyes violently and sat up from the bed.

The line of sight gradually became clear, the room was lit up by the night pearl, the bed she was sitting on was very soft and comfortable, the brocade quilt covering her lap had a vivid dragon with gold threads, and there were many antique jade objects around the room. There are some calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, and the whole room is low-key and luxurious, fresh and elegant.

Turning her eyes again, next to the mahogany table in the center of the room, a tall dark green figure was sitting on a chair and lowering her eyes to read a book, after seeing the person's side face clearly, Ling Ling's consciousness instantly sobered, she lifted the golden silk brocade quilt, quickly got out of bed, and hurriedly saluted,

"The Emperor... Emperor! ”

Bai Yixiu turned his head to look at her, with a faint smile on his face, like a spring breeze, he put down the scroll in his hand,

"Why don't you sleep more?"

Where is she still sleepy at this moment! Who can tell her that she obviously asked King Jing's Mansion for help, why did she run to Bai Yixiu's dormitory!

Ling Ling's mind was a mess, his eyes checked himself, he was well dressed, and he was okay! Wrong.. Clothes...... She is wearing exactly the same clothes as Xiahou Ling back then, what will Bai Yixiu think? Will he give her a crime of bullying in anger and put her to death?

Seeing that she was silent for a long time, Bai Yixiu stepped forward and asked,

"What's wrong with you? But what's wrong with your body? ”

Ling Ling lowered her head, never daring to look at Bai Yixiu, she shook her head,

"Thank you for the emperor's concern, there is nothing uncomfortable about the minister."

"In that case, then you go to bed to rest again, it is late at night, and you are weak, and you have only slept for less than two hours, which is not enough to recover."

He turned and walked back to the mahogany table, sat down and continued reading.

Ling Ling didn't know what Bai Yixiu meant, but if she stayed in the Yonghe Hall tonight, and there were only two people and a widow with her, once the news came out, what kind of statement would appear in the court tomorrow, and if he knew, what would he think......

"Your Majesty, the minister's body has recovered a lot, this is the emperor's bedroom, if the minister stays here, I am afraid that it will cause unnecessary misunderstanding."

No matter what, she must leave the Yonghe Hall tonight.

The scroll in Bai Yixiu's hand paused in the air, he turned his head to look at Ling Ling with complicated eyes, the spring-like smile on his face was faintly revealing a trace of anger at this moment, and his cold voice echoed in the hall,

"What do you mean by misunderstanding?"

"Of course it'......"

Ling Ling immediately stopped, she couldn't guess Bai Yixiu's thoughts at the moment, their current atmosphere, no matter what she said, her original intention would change.

Seeing that she was silent again, Bai Yixiu put down the scroll, his sharp eyes were always fixed on Ling Ling's face, he wanted to think about it after tonight, but Ling Ling's words just stirred up the anger in his heart, if it wasn't for Murong Xue's troubles before, he would still be kept in the dark by them.

"Let me guess what you're afraid of being misunderstood,"

He got up and walked slowly towards Ling Ling,

"Are you afraid that the news of your overnight stay here will spread throughout the government and the opposition, and everyone will misunderstand that you have become my woman? I'm still afraid if I stay any longer. I could misunderstand that you are actually Xiahou Ling at all? ”

As he spoke, Bai Yixiu leaned over slightly and leaned in front of Ling Ling, with a smile on the corner of his mouth,

"Or maybe you're scared of both."

His eyes were determined, the imperial momentum that had never been shown in front of her was exposed at this moment, Ling Ling was so confused by Bai Yixiu's words, he didn't think about it, and replied,

"Your Majesty, you misunderstood what the minister meant, after all, the minister is the young master of Longyunmen, and for the sake of Longyunmen, the minister also needs to keep a certain distance from the emperor."

Bai Yixiu's smile deepened, and he walked up to Ling Ling, the two were only separated by a punch, he stared at the slightly flustered face in front of him, and lightly opened his lips,

"Originally, I thought you just looked like her, but now I don't think so."

Ling Ling was a little flustered, what had happened during her coma tonight!

He continued. "Fei Ye's subordinate guards Qingliu, you and him should only have a one-sided relationship with Longyunmen, but tonight, he seems to be particularly concerned about your affairs. Moreover, Fei Ye has always been indifferent, and since he was a child, I have never seen him help anyone, except three years ago, when he played to me because of Xiahou Ling's affairs. ”

"...... tonight" She felt that something was wrong, obviously asked Ah Qi to ask Bai Feiye for help, why did she wake up but was in Bai Yixiu's dormitory, listening to what he just said, could it be Bai Yixiu who Bai Feiye asked Qingliu to find? But why?

The words she wanted to ask were stuck in her throat, and she was afraid that the more she said at the moment, the darker it became.

And Bai Yixiu seemed to see through Ling Ling, "Tonight, it was Fei Ye who sent Qingliu into the palace, and I only knew that Xue'er invited you to the Ning Xue Palace." Originally, I still wondered how Fei Ye would help you, but when I saw you in the Ning Xue Palace, all my doubts were solved. You, that's her. ”

Bai Yixiu's words knocked on Ling Ling's heart word by word, she knew that once her former identity was confirmed, it would not only be her. Even Bai Feiye will be implicated, so no matter what, she must not admit it!

"That day, when the emperor was visiting the imperial garden, the emperor had something to leave early, and then the minister went out of the palace with His Royal Highness King Jing, along the way, His Royal Highness King Jing chatted with his ministers about Xiahou Ling, and listened to the tone of His Royal Highness King Jing, thinking that Xiahou Ling should be a good woman. Originally, there were not many people he knew in Night City, so today, when Concubine Xue sent someone to pressure the minister to enter the palace, the minister had to find a maid to go to King Jing's mansion to try to ask His Royal Highness King Jing for help. ”

As she spoke, she raised her eyes lightly, looked at Bai Yixiu calmly, and raised a soft smile at the corners of her naturally raised mouth,

"But in the end, the minister should be most grateful to you, the emperor, if you hadn't taken the minister out of the Ningxue Palace, the minister would probably have slept in a room in the Ningxue Palace tonight."

Ling Ling raised his hand and bowed his head to Bai Yixiu and bowed deeply.

Bai Yixiu's eyes looked deeply at Ling Ling, who was saluting, silent, and the smile on his lips did not decrease.

He knew Murong Xue's methods very well, in order to get his favor, she would do whatever it took to remove the obstacles, and it was also because Ling Ling was not familiar with Murong Xue, the first time she was called into the palace, she wanted to move the rescue soldiers, such a sure move, it was difficult for him to think that it was the first meeting between Ling Ling and Murong Xue in the Imperial Garden.
