Chapter 164: The Dead Emperor
As soon as she stepped out of the house, she felt that the cold wind in winter was so warm, was it her delusion?
Still is......
Lin Xueqi looked back with complicated eyes, and then ......
"Ninth Princess, come quickly, sit down and eat." Mei Chun's voice called the sound of Lin Xueqi eating.
Lin Xueqi didn't care about anything else, closed the door, and stopped the cold air from the hanging beams.
"Did you serve dinner to Duan Murphy and them?" Lin Xueqi took a bite of food and asked.
Mei Chun replied: "Mei Chun has prepared for the Ninth Princess first, I don't know that Miss Murphy and they have returned, Mei Chun will go later." ”
Lin Xueqi nodded, "It's okay, try to be as fast as possible, so as not to make them hungry." ”
Mei Chun nodded knowingly, "Then the Ninth Princess will eat first, and Mei Chun will cook for them." ”
After finishing speaking, after getting Lin Xueqi's permission, Mei Chun turned around and left.
Lin Xueqi's thoughts were eating, and she thought of the diary, which was written by the previous emperor, if she handed it over to the queen mother, what would happen?
Guessing the embarrassment of the queen's mother, Lin Xueqi chuckled.
Not long ago, the queen mother said that she was vicious, saying that she framed her only living relative, but she didn't understand that her relatives died in front of her, and what she was facing with all day long was her parent-killing enemy!
Since knowing the truth behind this, Lin Xueqi didn't believe it at first, and she couldn't believe it, why did her trusted relatives do such a thing secretly!
She buries her hatred in her heart, and she expresses her joy.
She began to schem, she began to wander among them, she began to investigate the truth of those five years ago!
Because she didn't believe it was her new uncle who did it!
But the facts are so surprising, the moment he learned the truth, Lin Xueqi's heart was indescribably angry and resentful.
She doesn't understand, it's just an emperor's position, as for killing his own imperial sister!
Sooner or later, she will tell the world about that log, but now is not the time.
She wants to be the empress, she wants to control everything! Then will be the time when the truth will be revealed!
She wants to see what the emperor they trust is doing in secret!
What she has is patience, she can afford to wait, that is...... I don't know about him, I can't wait.
Thinking of this, Lin Xueqi concentrated on eating the rice in the bowl until ......
"Ninth Princess, someone outside the door has asked to see you." A small official opened the door, came to Lin Xueqi's side respectfully, and said.
Lin Xueqi's eyebrows frowned, when she was eating?
"You go and tell him that after the princess finishes eating, the princess will go." You don't have to think about it to know who sent it.
Today is the first day of return, and the emperor also knows that she must return today, and it is expected that she will send someone to find her.
"The Nine Princesses can eat slowly, the emperor said he is not in a hurry." A father-in-law appeared at the door, came to Lin Xueqi and saluted, conveying the emperor's words.
"Oh." If she can eat slowly, then she will try to eat as slowly as possible.
So Lin Xueqi started the imitation of eating without a mouthful, and a few minutes later, Lin Xueqi was still eating one grain of rice.
The father-in-law is also extremely embarrassed, even though their emperor can say that he can eat slowly, but eating so slowly, this Lin Xueqi is definitely the first person she has ever seen!
How long will this be eaten?! If they eat it any more, their emperor will probably return to the west!
"That...... Can the Nine Princesses eat faster? The father-in-law asked cautiously.
Lin Xueqi's eyes flickered, and his father-in-law immediately shut up, daring to make a request to Lin Xueqi, this father-in-law will definitely die!
"Earlier, you asked this princess to eat slowly, saying that the emperor is not in a hurry. Now you tell this princess to eat faster, what's the matter, are you in a hurry? Lin Xueqi raised her eyebrows with a smile.
My father-in-law felt that sweat began to break out on his forehead, "How dare you?" The Nine Princesses can eat slowly...... Eat slowly......"
Lin Xueqi chuckled, and the speed of eating was a little faster, and after the last quarter of an hour, Lin Xueqi finally finished the rice in her bowl, and her father-in-law was also relieved.
It just so happened that Mei Chun appeared in the garden with two bowls of rice and a few plates of vegetables, and after seeing her father-in-law, she immediately said, "The Ninth Princess is going out again?" ”
Lin Xueqi: 'Hmm. "You stay in Songxi Garden, I'll go back as soon as I go, remember to clean up my house, don't touch the basin, sort out this table, it's almost none of your business, just think about it. Spring. ”
Before hearing Lin Xueqi's last words, Mei Chun's mind only came up with the chill of hanging beams and piercing the strands before she entered Lin Xueqi's house just now.
Later, you have to go in to clean up the house, and the chill of going in must be even more intimidating.
But as soon as she heard the last sentence, the picture in Mei Chun's mind switched instantly, and what appeared in front of her eyes was when Yixuan smiled at her.
His cheeks flushed pink, and he said shyly, "What did the Ninth Princess say?" Mei Chun went to deliver food to them. ”
As he spoke, he stopped paying attention to Lin Xueqi.
The father-in-law was very bitter in his heart, he didn't understand which provoked Lin Xueqi, why was his self-proclaimed name different from Mei Chun at all? !
Is this gender treatment?!
Lin Xueqi calls himself 'I' to Mei Chun. For him, it's a 'princess'. Let him chill and fear!
Lin Xueqi shook his head with a smile, and said to the father-in-law who was a little bitter in his heart: "You take this princess with you." ”
The father-in-law was stunned for a moment, and came back to his senses, "Okay, good." The nine princesses, please come with the ministers. ”
Immediately, something came to mind and said, "Let's wait a minute, this princess will go back to the house to get some things." ”
As she spoke, she opened the room and was greeted by a bone-piercing cold, which made her father-in-law shiver, and the blood disappeared at the same time.
Mei Chun looked at this father-in-law sadly, this father-in-law is fine, at least he will withstand this meeting, she will have to go in later!
Oh yes, she can wrap herself in a quilt before going in, so it shouldn't be too cold......
After a while, Lin Xueqi came out, and there was nothing more in his hand.
"Now you can go." Lin Xueqi said, looking at her father-in-law's bloodless face with a pair of beautiful eyes, she really didn't know why they were afraid of the cold in her house, was it really that terrifying?
As soon as he heard that he could leave, his father-in-law, who was about to freeze to death, forced out a smile, "Ninth princess, please." ”
Mei Chun also knocked on Duan Murphy's door, and after handing them out the meal, she really sat on the stone chair in the garden and began to think. It's spring.
——
Inside the Emperor's Bedchamber.
"Your Majesty, are you okay? Does the medicine she gave you really work? The queen asked worriedly.
It's not that she doesn't believe Lin Xueqi, but after learning that the poison was caused by Lin Xueqi, she hates and worries about Lin Xueqi.
And what she is more worried about is whether the prescription given by Lin Xueqi will work.
The emperor was still pale, "It's okay, the queen doesn't have to worry." ”
When the queen mother saw the emperor's appearance, she really wanted to say that 'this poison is actually caused by Lin Xueqi, and she will not completely cure you'.
But when she thought that she still had a handle in Lin Xueqi's hands, Lin Xueqi had the ability to clear her name, after all, her mother was once the eldest princess respected by the people of the Mo Dynasty, and in terms of status, her mother was definitely greater than the emperor.
As long as Lin Xueqi said that she was for revenge, and then said that her parents were killed by the emperor, then the people would definitely turn against Lin Xueqi and help Lin Xueqi speak.
And she can't turn over, after all, the harem has spent all means to compete for favor, and it is already sinister in the hearts of outsiders, and she must not have such a side topic.
"But you ......" the queen mother was about to cry, looking at the emperor's increasingly thin face, and the last sentence of 'dying soon', she still didn't dare to say it.
She was afraid that she would not be able to stand the blow, and she would not be able to hold back her tears.
"It's okay, it's okay, don't worry, queen." The emperor persuaded the queen mother and said softly: "I have summoned Xue Qi, tomorrow will be her enthronement ceremony, we should be happy." ”
"But...... But ......" the queen was incoherent, and she began to panic, and the emperor at this time always frightened her, and she was afraid that he would die of illness at any time......
The Emperor smiled, as he had seen her for the first time, "You are still the same as before, you like to cry so much." I thought that the palace could make you a lot stronger, but I didn't expect this palace to sharpen your appearance and not your heart...... cough cough cough !! ”
As he spoke, the emperor coughed a few times, covered his mouth with his hand, and finally looked away, and found that the palm of his hand was full of coughed blood.
"Why are you so sick?" After the queen mother saw the blood on the emperor's palm, she hurriedly went to serve the decoction that had been prepared, blew it with her mouth, and fed it into the emperor's mouth spoonful.
The emperor drank it and felt a lot better in an instant, but this medicine only had a suppressive effect, but she was able to let him drink it, and she also took a step back.
The emperor's eyes flashed with loneliness, this was all his retribution, he knew in his heart, she would know sooner or later.
He left her in order to let Lin Xueqi take revenge on him when he grew up, so that he could let go of the uneasiness and shame in his heart.
"It's fine." The emperor lay on the pillow and chuckled, only the pale face betrayed everything.
"How can it be okay? What did the emperor do when she asked her to come? The queen asked.
When I think of Lin Xueqi, the queen mother really doesn't like it, I used to think that she was a child without a father and no mother, blame and pity, but now the queen mother is disgusted, she doesn't like such a scheming child.
"It's nothing, just talk to her." The emperor said, "The queen mother has been taking care of me for several days, so go back first." ”
The queen mother knew what he and Lin Xueqi were saying, but she didn't want her to hear it, so she had to nod, but as soon as she remembered the medicinal soup in her hand, "Then I'll leave after feeding you the medicine." ”
"No need, someone will feed me later, you can leave it alone." The emperor refused, "You are also tired, go back and have a good rest, I hope that I will see you tomorrow is still the same you were back then." ”
The queen's heart trembled, and then with tears in her eyes, she rushed out of the door.
