Chapter 80: Qi Ling is frightened
Lixiang Palace!
Lixiang Palace flashed in Liling's mind.
The main seat of Lixiang Palace used to be the palace where the eldest princess's biological mother, An Guifei, lived, and it has been empty since An Guifei died, if Concubine Xiao wants to scare the eldest princess, where is there a better place than Lixiang Palace?
Li Ling did not hesitate, and went to Lixiang Palace with Zhihe and Minglu and a few palace people.
Lixiang Palace has only been empty since Concubine An died, and the palace people usually clean it regularly, this kind of palace where no one lives, the palace people will not be particularly careful to clean it, so the main hall of Lixiang Palace is full of dust.
When Liling arrived at Lixiang Palace, Concubine Ning also arrived, the main hall of Lixiang Palace was unoccupied, and it was locked on weekdays, and the key was in charge of Concubine Ning, so when Liling thought of this place in Lixiang Palace, she sent someone to take the first step to call Concubine Ning.
Zhihe and Concubine Ning's personal palace maid Xiaoqing walked in front with a lantern, and Liling and Concubine Ning followed into the main hall of Lixiang Palace.
"Niangniang, it's dusty here, why don't the slaves and maids go in and look for it, and you and Concubine Ning will wait outside, right?" Minglu saw that the pear was covering her nose, so she suggested.
"Nothing." Ritsu shook her head and rejected Minglu's offer.
When I walked to the original bedroom of Concubine An, I found that the lock on the outside could not be opened.
Li Ling and Concubine Ning glanced at each other, and they both thought that the eldest princess was probably locked up here, otherwise it was so dignified, why couldn't the lock of this house be opened?
"Little Dazi, smash this lock open!" Liling didn't dare to dodge and delay, so she directly let people smash the lock.
Just as Xiao Dazi smashed the lock, there was a slight sound in the room.
"Help! Save me, save me! "It's the voice of Princess Celestia.
Pear Ling was overjoyed when she heard the voice of the eldest princess, and secretly thought that she was really not wrong, the eldest princess was really locked up here!
When the door was opened, and Pear Ling and the others entered, they turned on the lamp and found that the eldest princess was tied to a chair and couldn't move. The main seat of Lixiang Palace was unoccupied, so naturally there was no floor heating, the house was very cold, and the eldest princess was thinly dressed, and she was frozen all over her body, and her face was bloodless.
"Mother Xi!" When the eldest princess saw Pearling, her eyes lit up, and she knew that she was saved.
Li Ling instructed everyone to quickly untie the eldest princess, and then untied the cloak on her body to wrap the eldest princess, and Concubine Ning also hurriedly handed the warm hand stove in her hand to the eldest princess.
When her body finally warmed up, the eldest princess seemed to have just come to life, and threw herself into Liling's arms and cried with a "wow".
Li Ling couldn't cry or laugh a little, over the years, she and the eldest princess were not very close, and the eldest princess threw herself into her arms and cried so intimately, she felt a little overwhelmed.
But the eldest princess suffered this time, she was locked up in this black-lit, dusty, unheated house, the weather was cold, she was poorly dressed, she was cold and hungry, and suffered a lot of fright. Although Pear Ling and the eldest princess are not close, but the eldest princess has lived in Moshang Palace for so long, and there is a bit of affection in the end, so Pear Ling let the eldest princess cry in her arms.
After the eldest princess cried for a while and vented enough, Li Ling helped the eldest princess up and said, "It's cold here, let's go back and talk about it if you have anything to say!" ”
"Concubine Xi asked Di'er to go back to the palace with you, Di'er doesn't want to go back to Yongfu Palace." The eldest princess is eleven years old this year, and she is not a child anymore, and she feels a little embarrassed to cry in front of so many people, so she buried her face in Liling's arms and said coquettishly with a crying voice.
Li Ling knew that the eldest princess was locked up here this time, and it must be that there was a mole in Yongfu Palace, so it was normal for the eldest princess not to dare to go back, so Li Ling didn't have to send the eldest princess back to the palace.
"Sister Concubine Ning will also go to the Moshang Palace together!" Concubine Ning is now in charge of the palace, and all matters in the harem have to be dealt with, and now that the eldest princess has an accident, Concubine Ning naturally can't stay out of it.
In this way, Li Ling and Concubine Ning took the eldest princess back to the Moshang Palace, and asked people to inform the eldest princess's two palace maids, Qinglan and Qingwei, so that they didn't have to go around looking for the eldest princess anymore.
After returning to Moshang Palace, Pear Ling ordered someone to bathe the eldest princess, invited the imperial doctor to diagnose the eldest princess's pulse, and then prepared a comfortable room for the eldest princess to drink the medicine and rest.
The eldest princess was originally infected with wind and cold after falling into the water, and the illness has not yet recovered, but today she was scared and frozen, physically and mentally exhausted, and drank the sleeping medicine caught by the doctor, and the eldest princess soon couldn't hold it anymore and fell asleep deeply.
Concubine Ning has already sent someone to wait for the emperor at the gate of the palace, as long as the emperor comes back, he will know what happened to the eldest princess today, and he will definitely come to the palace soon, when the time comes, everything will be decided by the emperor, and it has nothing to do with her.
So Li Ling didn't ask the eldest princess anything, and Concubine Ning didn't ask either.
The night gradually deepened, and Li Ling asked Concubine Ning to go back to Qi Ning Palace to rest, you can't just let Concubine Ning sit in Moshang Palace and wait for the emperor to come back, who knows when the emperor will come back. What's more, even if the emperor comes back, it is estimated that he is tired, and the eldest princess is also asleep at this time, no matter how big the matter is, it is estimated that it will have to wait until tomorrow, and the emperor will come to see the eldest princess at most.
So Pear Ling didn't think about waiting for Dong Qi to come, and after a toss today, Pear Ling couldn't resist the sleepiness and went to bed early.
So after Dongqi returned to the palace, he heard that something had happened to the eldest princess, so he eagerly came to the palace of Mo.
But after Dong Qi came to Mo Shang Palace, he found that Mo Shang Palace was quiet, completely different from the brightly lit appearance he imagined, Dong Qi Lin Zou frowned and walked in.
Minglu was left by the pear to wait for Dongqi to come, and after Minglu saw the emperor coming, he told the emperor about the matter, explaining why no one was waiting for the emperor in the palace: The eldest princess was so tired that she had already rested at this time; Liling also fell asleep because she couldn't stand it because she had been tossing for a long time.
After listening to Minglu's words, Dong Qilin didn't say a word, and only let Minglu lead the way to the eldest princess's house.
Minglu's heart was a little apprehensive, she originally wanted to persuade Niangniang to wait for the emperor here, but she couldn't do anything about what Niangniang decided, Niangniang was really, knowing that the emperor was coming, and leaving the emperor here alone!
After Dong Qilin went to see the eldest princess, he went to the house of the pear and asked everyone to retreat.
Minglu is secretly happy, it seems that the emperor is not angry with his mother, no, the emperor is going to rest in the Moshang Palace today, the emperor has not stayed in the Moshang Palace for a year, and this is still thanks to the blessing of the eldest princess!
Minglu felt that the eldest princess was not so annoying.
Dong Qilin walked into Pear Ling's bedroom, and saw that Pear Ling was really asleep, not Minglu prevaricating him with words, Dong Qilin was a little happy and a little lost.
Happily, Liling can do so much for the eldest princess, originally she could not care about the eldest princess, and no one can blame her; The loss is that Pear Ling is good to the eldest princess, not because of him, but because of the kindness of Pear Ling herself and her affection for the eldest princess, no, knowing that he will come tonight, she has not waited for him.
Sighing, Dong Qilin walked to the side of Liling's bed, lifted the corner of the quilt, lay down, and slept with his clothes.
