Chapter 54: The Plan of the Heart
"Qiu Qi, if you go and invite the emperor to come up, just say that I have prepared some food to relieve the heat, and invite the emperor to come to the Daigo Palace." Liling instructed Qiu Qi very much in the evening.
"Yes." Qiu Qi responded obediently.
"Auntie," Liling called Nan Fei who brought the fruit, "Auntie blames me?" Li Ling didn't tell Nan Fei that he was going to the cold palace that night, and when she came back from the cold palace that day, she happened to be seen by Nan Fei who was on duty at night, although Nan Fei didn't have any expression, but Li Ling still felt uneasy.
"The slave did not accompany the master into the cold palace to suffer, and the master is okay with this." Nan Fei's face really didn't show any expression.
Pear Ling knew that she was blaming herself, but Pear Ling had nothing to say, so she had to go to Nanfei.
When Dong Qi Lin came, it was already dark, and Li Ling was napping on the chaise longue, and Dong Qi Lin did not let the palace maid report, so Li Ling didn't know that his sleeping position was seen by someone.
Dong Qilin saw the appearance of the pear Ling half asleep, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, the current appearance of the pear Ling is very soft, and he does not see the usual cold appearance, which adds a little color to the pear Ling's already beautiful face, and Dong Qilin can't help but feel good.
"Please forgive the emperor, the slave will wake up the master." Qiu Qi saw this on the side, and her heart was very anxious, the master finally took the initiative to invite the emperor to come up, now don't let the emperor dislike the master.
Dong Qilin just wanted to stop Qiu Qi, but Li Ling had been woken up by Qiu Qi's words.
When Li Ling opened her eyes, she saw Dong Qilin in a dragon robe, and immediately reacted: "The concubine asks the emperor for peace." ”
Dong Qilin didn't let the pear girl salute, he helped the pear girl up: "Concubine Ai invited me over but fell asleep first, could it be that Concubine Ai wants to invite me to sleep here?" ”
Dong Qilin's words were lowered by Li Decheng and Qiu Qi, but Li Ling was blushed, muttering in her heart, how can there be such a nasty emperor?
"Go down first." Dong Qilin half-supported the pear and waved his hand to a group of slaves, and everyone in the hall walked out with interest.
Li Ling was depressed when she saw this scene, what is this emperor going to do?!
When everyone went down, Li Ling immediately opened Dong Qilin's hand, and just wanted to say something but was interrupted by Dong Qilin: "Ai Fei, don't you go to bed yet?" ”
"When the emperor comes up, he doesn't let people report it, is it possible that he wants to treat his ministers and concubines for a disrespectful crime?" Ri Ling ignored Dong Qilin's words.
Dong Qilin's original interest was also broken up by Liling's words, so he had to ask with a straight face, "Is there anything wrong with the concubine?" ”
"Didn't the emperor ask knowingly? Didn't the concubine tell Qiu Qi to tell the emperor that she was inviting the emperor to come over and use something to cool off? Li Ling said to Dong Qilin with a smile.
"It's time to cool off in the early afternoon, so who would cool off in the evening? What's the matter with the concubine? Dong Qilin smiled, this woman is usually fine, she will not send someone to invite her, unless there is something.
Li Ling looked at Dong Qilin's smile, and was a little distracted for a while, this emperor rarely smiled, he always had a straight face, establishing the majesty of the royal family, and he laughed with a feeling that made people feel like a spring breeze.
"Concubine Ai likes to look at me like this?" Dong Qilin saw Li Ling looking at him, and teased.
"Why does the emperor want to cancel the concubine," Li Ling blushed suddenly, and she was not very embarrassed, "Your Majesty, the concubine invited you to come today, there is indeed something wrong." ”
Then, Li Ling briefly told Dong Qilin about his trip to the cold palace.
Dong Qilin's face instantly became ugly when he heard the sentence "The current emperor is not the son of Yu Anqiao's slut", Li Ling looked at Dong Qilin's face, and couldn't help but sigh, although he suspected it before, but after all, there was no evidence, and now the facts were indeed in front of him, so he couldn't help but admit that he had recognized the thief as his father for so many years.
"What are you going to do next?" Dong Qilin did not see any grievances.
"Start with a few concubines, of course." Li Ling admired Dong Qilin's self-determination a little, but then thought about it, as an emperor, he didn't have any ability, how could he become an emperor?
"Then I'll leave this matter to you." Dong Qilin didn't say much.
"What about the deal that the emperor said with his concubines?" It's not that I'm worried that Dongqi will repay the debt, but I'm afraid that he will be busy with state affairs and forget about his own affairs in the end.
"He counts." Dong Qilin walked out of the Daigo Hall without saying anything, but there was still a tired look on his face.
Li Ling looked at the back of Dong Qilin's departure, and sighed in his heart, it is not easy to be an emperor, although he was born in the royal family, he has been clothed and fed since he was a child, but he has recognized the thief as his father for so many years, even if he is the emperor, but he can't avenge his biological mother, and he can only rely on making deals with her to verify.
Ri Ling didn't think about it anymore and stopped.
On the second day, when Qiu Qi came to serve the pear to freshen up, she said to the pear that the emperor had summoned Jiang Meiren at night.
The emperor summoned which concubine is understandable, but this Jiang beauty is the daughter of the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, so the emperor has only been fortunate once since she entered the palace, besides, the emperor is about to deal with Yuan Xiguo and needs the support of Li Huiqin's father, how can he spoil Jiang Meiren at this time?
"Who can guess the emperor's thoughts." Li Ling seemed to say to Qiu Qi, and it seemed to be talking to herself.
Seeing this, Qiu Qi didn't say anything anymore, and only focused on helping Liling comb her hair.
On this day, just when Nan Fei thought that Fu Nange would not come to Daigo Hall again, Fu Nange came with Gui'er.
"Sister, why be polite, do it quickly." Hearing the report, Li Ling came out of the back room, took Fu Nange's hand cordially, and sat on the couch together.
When Qiu Qi brought the best Longjing tea, Fu Nange didn't speak, as if he was thinking about something, and Li Ling didn't bother, just blindly drank tea there, and showed his hand when he held the tea bowl, showing the wound left in the Pianjiao Hall that day, and now he has stammered, but the scar looks a little hideous.
Qiu Qi and Gui'er looked at the two of them, not knowing what kind of dumb riddle they were playing.
Finally, after drinking a cup of tea, Fu Nange spoke: "Don't hide it from my sister, my sister wants to ask my sister about it today." ”
"What can't my sister say to my sister? Let's just say it, you and I are so different. Li Ling faintly guessed what Fu Nange would say, but she was not in a hurry, she was still drinking tea leisurely, and the scar became more and more hideous on Li Ling's hand.
"Sister, do you remember that your mother was assassinated by assassins in the palace?" Fu Nange asked a little carefully, for fear of touching Liling's heart.
"Naturally, I remember." Li Ling put down the teacup, and her expression did not change in any special way, "It's just a pity that I didn't find the murderer to avenge my mother." ”
Although Liling's face is light, but only she knows how uncomfortable she is in her heart, the flower silhouette is her only hope for these lives, and the people who have depended on each other for so many years have been killed like this, who can be relieved? It's just that no matter how much I hate Yu Anqiao in my heart, there is still a light look on my face, otherwise, I will die first, how can I talk about revenge?
"It's all the Queen Mother's fault." Fu Nange said with a sigh, with a bit of blame in his tone.
Li Ling didn't care about Fu Nange's words, just said with a smile: "I can't blame the Queen Mother for this, if I don't die, my mother will die, or the Queen Mother will die, and I can only blame those assassins!" But after all, how long has it been, if my mother has a spirit in the sky, I don't want me to be unhappy with the Queen Mother because of her affairs. ”
Although I don't blame the Queen Mother's words for being false, but this last sentence is true, Yu Anqiaozi used to be like that to the flower silhouette, even if the flower silhouette finally died in the hands of Yu Anqiao, she never resented her former good sister, the flower silhouette is such a good old man, she can endure everything, but she is not so good-tempered, she has the temperament of revenge, not to mention such a deep hatred.
"I'm sorry for my sister, my sister is so generous." Fu Nange continued.
"It's all in the past anyway, and my mother ......," Liling seemed to be a little sad, "It's painful to live." ”
"Ling'er, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have mentioned such a thing," Fu Nange saw that Li Ling remembered the past, and it was not good to continue, so he took Li Ling's hand, "Let's talk about something happy." ”
"Hmm." Pear Ling hurriedly put away her sad face and laughed.
Fu Nange looked at the smile of the pear ling, and then moved his eyes down to look at the scar on the pear ling's hand, feeling a little uncomfortable, but he didn't show it on his face.
