Chapter Twenty-Five: Within the Walls

"What a good boy." The queen took Lin Qingyan's hand affectionately, and looked at Lin Qingyan's face with her eyes - this face is actually not half similar to her own Jinghong, but her well-behaved and sensible is the same as Jinghong, every time she talks to her, she feels that her own Yan'er is back.

"I and the queen know your intentions, but isn't your wedding date also near? It's better not to go out of the house these days, Prime Minister, what do you say? The emperor did not express too much, although the words meant rejection, and there was no displeasure on his face.

Lin Qingyan sighed in his heart, became apprehensive, and quietly glanced at his father.

The old prime minister got up hurriedly and said slowly, "Your Majesty, the old minister's daughter is just like this, of course she will think about her." But compared to his daughter's marriage, the minister is more worried about His Majesty and Niangniang! ”

The emperor's eyes were bright, and he seemed to have a smile in them, "I naturally know the prime minister's intentions very well, you are also so old, many times, I really have some regrets in my heart not to ......"

"Your Majesty!" The old prime minister suddenly "plopped" and knelt on the ground, and said sincerely, "Your Majesty is really tormenting the old minister, serving Your Majesty, the old minister will never give up!" If one day the old minister is no longer useful in the eyes of His Majesty, the old minister ......"

"Alas!" The emperor shook his head helplessly, glanced at Gonggong Huai, who understood it, quickly stepped forward to help the old prime minister, and comforted him in a soft voice, "Your Excellency, what is the pain, Your Majesty values you!" ”

The old prime minister was helped up, but he was already in tears, and after standing still, he wiped a handful of tears, and then continued to say sincerely, "Your Majesty, Niangniang!" Lao Chen knows that in the past three years, the two of you have not given up hope and are waiting for the princess to come back! But death cannot be resurrected! ”

The queen's face was stunned, and the hand holding Lin Qingyan tightened a little.

Lin Qingyan noticed something, and didn't dare to blatantly observe the faces of the saint and the mother, so he had to look at his father suspiciously—didn't he say that he shouldn't mention the princess to the saint and the mother? If you say these words at this time, the illness of the saint and Niangniang will worsen, right?

Before the old prime minister's words were finished, he settled down and continued, "So, the most important thing for the saint and Niangniang now is to take care of their bodies and add heirs to the royal family of Yunguo!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the court was silent.

The old prime minister continued to persuade bitterly, "Your Majesty, you have to think about the world and society! ”

Gonggong Huai glanced at the emperor with some concern, the old prime minister's words are too poking at the heart of the saint, the saint and Niangniang have been sick every day for the past three years, but it is for Her Royal Highness the princess to come back as soon as possible.

"Poof, hahahahaha!"

The emperor suddenly laughed, laughing so much that several other people felt inexplicable, especially the old prime minister who had just given a sincere admonition, seeing that the emperor was indeed smiling happily at this time, not to mention how embarrassing it was. He tucked his robe together, as if he didn't know where to put his hands.

"Your Majesty, what do you think of smiling so happily?"

It was the queen who came forward at this time to solve everyone's doubts.

"Hehe, I just remembered that Jing Hong had said something like this when he was a child." The emperor smiled a little tired, and a few tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes, the queen gently took the handkerchief and wiped it off for him, and he took the opportunity to hold the queen's hand, "I don't know if the queen still has an impression, at that time, the fourth prince had just died, and Jinghong ran to comfort me and said the same thing to the prime minister." ”

"Your Royal Highness Princess, what did she say?" The old prime minister asked curiously.

"Jing Hong said that people can't be resurrected after death, if the father really thinks about the world's society, he will have a few more princes with his mother!"

"Huh?" The old prime minister was stunned, "This, this, Her Royal Highness the princess was like this when she was young, so ......"

So bold? So sensible? Or is it so different?

Many words flashed in the old prime minister's mind, but in the end he didn't say any of them, just sighed deeply, "Alas...... Her Royal Highness the princess has indeed been brilliant since she was a child, and she is a rare genius, alas! ”

The emperor held back a smile and said to the old prime minister, "Okay, I will consider the prime minister's words carefully, but today I and the queen also discussed another matter, and it happened that Lin Qingyan also came, so let's talk about it together!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." The old prime minister stood up in a proper manner, looking at the expression of the saint, shouldn't it be a bad thing?

The emperor and the empress glanced at each other, and their eyes also glanced at Lin Qingyan, who had a quiet face, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "It's rare that Lin Qingyan and the queen fall in love, and she is so hearted, I want to give her ......."

"Your Majesty—Your Majesty!"

Lin Qingyan was waiting for the emperor's next words with his head down, nervous and nervous in his heart, but he heard a louder call from outside the hall.

For some reason, her heart skipped a beat, as if the sound was going to bring her terrible news, and she forced herself to compose, but her hand couldn't help but twitch. Her hand was in the queen's arms, and she was gently held by the queen, and this movement disturbed the queen, who raised her eyes and looked at her in surprise.

The emperor frowned and looked at Gonggong Huai, and said in a low voice, "Go and see what's going on." ”

"Huh."

Grandpa Huai retreated in small steps, but then strode back in one breath, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" ”

"Huh?" It would not be a trivial matter to make Gonggong Huai lose his temper like this, the emperor stood up, and the rest of the people also stood up, "The queen will rest first, and I will go to the imperial study first." ”

"Congratulations to Your Majesty." The queen saluted meekly, smiled, watched the emperor go out, turned to look at Lin Qingyan, and said with a chuckle, "It's a pity, Your Majesty originally wanted to inform you about the title for you!" ”

With a bang, a burst of thunder exploded in Lin Qingyan's brain, and she looked at the queen dumbfounded, if she wasn't still a little sensible, she would have pulled the queen to ask for clarification.

However, the old prime minister was much more indifferent, and after thanking the queen, he left.

Gonggong Huai walked out of Zhaohua Palace with the emperor quickly, and before he could call Lu Shu to prepare for driving, he was glared at by the emperor.

"Your Majesty, the old slave, the old slave just saw Lord Wei from afar!" Father-in-law Huai dodged with some weakness.

"Wei Ting?" The emperor's eyes lit up, and he strode away with a flick of his sleeves, "Quick, swing, you go and take Wei Ting to the imperial study!" ”

"The old slave has already sent a message to a trustworthy person!" Gonggong Huai gasped to keep up with the emperor's pace, and his heart was finally a little more steady.

After following the saint for so many years, he felt that he knew the most about the saint's mind. So after catching a glimpse of Wei Ting from afar, he hurriedly sent others to pass the word, and he sent a message to the saint as quickly as possible.

Since Wei Ting chased the princess to the Holy Medicine Mountain three years ago but returned in vain, the whereabouts of Her Royal Highness the princess were completely handed over to Wei Ting and his party to deal with. Originally, it was the palace guard on the surface, but he was all removed from his post under the anger of the saint, and outsiders said that it was caused by the dereliction of duty to protect the princess, so he became the secret guard of Her Royal Highness the princess, and the secret guard who could not be protected closely.

At this time, Wei Ting will appear in the palace, and there must be something changed in Her Royal Highness the Princess!

"Wei Ting!"

"Your Majesty!"

Wei Ting waited outside the imperial study early, and when he saw the emperor coming in a hurry, he immediately burst into tears, and without saying a word, he made a big salute, buried his head and said sonorously, "My subordinates are guilty!" Princess Rong is alone in danger, and she doesn't know the whereabouts of the princess until today! ”

"Shocking, shocking, she ......"

"Your Majesty, please condemn you!" Wei Ting leaned over to the ground, and only then did he raise his head, "Her Royal Highness the princess has been in the imperial capital for two days, and she said that she was looking for a suitable time to enter the palace. ”

"Imperial Capital?!" The emperor's voice was raised a lot, and his eyes were even brighter, "What is suitable or not, this is her home!" This kid, why do you have to find a time to go home! ”

"Your Majesty...... Her Royal Highness the Princess, Her Royal Highness the Princess also asked her subordinates about the matter......" Wei Ting said, Fu buried his head again, and his voice was buried a lot.

The emperor's excited voice stopped abruptly, and his face suddenly became heavy, "What do you say?" ”

"Subordinate, subordinate reported truthfully." Wei Ting said seriously that he didn't know anything about what the princess asked, and he didn't know according to the truth.

"Very good, Jinghong must have grown a lot after this incident, and it's all because I didn't protect her well! You go and tell Jinghong that her father will definitely avenge her revenge! ”

"Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness the princess said that she would not miss revenge, and also said that Your Majesty and Niangniang should take care of their bodies first and not work too hard."

The emperor was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "My Jinghong is careful to be kind and generous, and she will definitely not hold grudges, but she doesn't realize the seriousness of this matter, it's okay, I will clear all obstacles for her!" At the end, he continued to ask, "Where is she staying in the imperial capital now?" ”

"Naturally, Slim Dance Building." Wei Ting straightened his face and whispered, "Your Majesty, few people know the identity of the princess, how did that Lin Qingyan know?" In the past three years, she has also taken away the reputation of Her Royal Highness the princess - now that the princess is back, she must not be left to do it again! ”

"In this matter, it is better for you to ask what Jinghong means." The emperor raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, "Jing Hong is now eighteen years old, if it weren't for the delay in this matter, it would be time to recruit the horse, and you should ask her if she can abandon the identity of the dancing queen, I am afraid that there will be no time to ...... in the future."

"Your Majesty......" Wei Ting hesitated for a moment, and then said faintly, "Her Royal Highness the princess and Your Majesty have the same meaning......"

"Oh?" This is surprising, the emperor shook his head, he knew how much he liked the slender dance building, and how much he liked to dance in the wind.

Presumably in the past three years, Jinghong has had a very difficult time, and he has figured out a lot of things!

Thinking of this, the emperor's heart throbbed again, Jinghong has been cared for by him since he was a child, although he has studied hard, he can't bear to see her suffer. Who would have thought that after all, there would be a mistake in Baimi, and how much pain the unheard-of poisonous Jinghong would suffer! If you don't take revenge, you don't have to be looked down upon by those little people!
