Chapter 420: The Emperor's Resignation, Who Understands the Profound Meaning

The person who came was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, and it was the current emperor.

The emperor walked slowly in front of Ling Qingrui, looking at her condescendingly, but he didn't say anything.

Ling Qingrui also didn't speak, her eyes moved away from the emperor, and she looked at a book on the side, as if it was a book from heaven and worthy of her in-depth study.

"Ling Qingrui, do you know how your father Ling Qingcang became a general?" The emperor suddenly spoke, but he asked such a sentence.

Ling Qingrui's eyes turned slightly, and she replied: "Prince De has a good eye for heroes, and he has repeatedly carried him, and his father swears to repay him with death, and he is a brave and resourceful person, who has made military exploits and has been awarded the title of general. ”

"Wrong! Prince Ling Qingcang Yude has the grace to save his life. The emperor's tone was indifferent.

When Ling Qingrui heard this, Huo Ran raised his eyes, but the emperor didn't seem to notice it, and continued: "This matter is almost unknown to the parties, and no one knows about it, this is the reason why Jing Chenyao has repeatedly promoted Ling Qingcang. ”

"The grace of saving lives, but after all, it can't compete with monstrous wealth, does the emperor think the same?" The treasures of the previous dynasty handed down by the ancestors of the Ling family, Jing Chenyao did not hesitate to kill the Ling family to get it, Ling Qingrui did not believe that the emperor would never be moved.

The emperor looked at Ling Qingrui fixedly, and said: "The monstrous wealth, everyone will be moved, but only Ling Qingcang is not moved, he is only loyal to the Tianli Dynasty, or should it be said that he is only loyal to the people of this world." ”

Ling Qingrui was silent, secretly thinking about the meaning of the emperor's words in her heart, but she heard the emperor say again: "He once said to me that it is not a treasure, but the bane that will cause chaos in the world and cause suffering to the people in the world!" He wished that this ancestral thing of the Ling family had never existed at all. ”

"Therefore, when my father returned to his hometown on the grounds of illness, the emperor approved it." Ling Qingrui answered.

"Yes, Ling Qingcang couldn't bear to refuse Prince De, who had the grace to support him, and he couldn't bear to bear the treasure in the world, so he could only retreat. It's just that he didn't think about ......"

"It's just that he never thought that Prince De, who is known as a virtuous person, would secretly assassinate the Ling family and destroy the Ling family, just to get the treasures of the previous dynasty." Ling Qingrui's hands were clenched into fists, and there was a deep coldness raging in her eyes.

The emperor nodded slightly, and the emperor at this time looked at Ling Qingrui, as if he was a kind elder, looking at his favorite junior.

Ling Qingrui suddenly stood up and asked, "How can the emperor prove that the murder and treasure grabbing was not done by the emperor?" ”

His eyes were awe-inspiring and cold, and he refused to back down at all, looking directly at the emperor, Ling Qingrui's momentum soared into the sky, the emperor obviously wanted to ask about Concubine Xian's situation, the reason why he brought her to this ink pavilion was because there were probably people in the Liuhua Palace who were watching, and even the emperor was watching, it can be seen that the situation in the palace has become so bad, the emperor does not die to clean up, but he does not think of fighting back but comes to talk to her about what happened more than ten years ago, what is his intention?

Ling Qingrui knew that it was indeed Jing Chenyao who destroyed the Ling family, and she questioned like this just to test why the emperor trusted her father back then, and why did her father tell the emperor and the emperor, is there still a secret that she doesn't know?

Ling Qingrui's questioning in front of her, in the face of her momentum of a weak woman but not inferior to a peerless man, the emperor suddenly smiled, and said: "Back then, your parents stood in front of me like this, one was imposing, heroic, and the other was like a weak willow supporting the wind, and the sharp energy in his eyes seemed to be able to cut anything in the world!" ”

Ling Qingrui's body was shocked, and the emperor continued: "I asked: Why do you refuse to hand over this bane to me, since then the bane is in the hands of the Ninety-Five Venerable, and it will never be a bane again." He replied, "If it cannot be handed over to the people of the world, it can only be buried in the earth, and it will not be able to emerge forever." I ask again: how can you ensure that the treasures that are exciting to everyone's hearts do not fall into the hands of others and are used by others? He replied: Fight with your life, life is not there, the treasure is still there! ”

After all, the emperor stretched out his hand, stroked the top of Ling Qingrui's head like an elder, stroked it lightly, and said, "I ...... Suspicious, there are very few people who have believed in this life, and Ling Qingcang is one of the people I have believed. ”

Her eyes were red, and her heart was extremely sour, Ling Qingrui lowered her eyes slightly, hid the tears in her eyes, and asked, "Why don't you check?" ”

Why don't you investigate, why don't you avenge the heroic souls of him and the Ling family? Knowing that they did not die at the hands of robbers, knowing that they ...... Just like now, knowing that everything has a mastermind behind the scenes, why don't you move and let the other party press forward step by step?

The emperor's hand paused slightly, and then said, "You don't understand." ”

The words fell, and without waiting for Ling Qingrui to say anything more, the emperor put down his hand and said again: "Do you know that just now, the Tianlin Daoist offered an elixir to cure the illness of the virtuous concubine?" ”

"The emperor believes that Concubine Xian is sick?" Ling Qingrui changed the topic with the emperor, but the emperor refused to say, and there was no point in asking.

A faint smile appeared on the emperor's face, and between this smile, Ling Qingrui was surprised to find that this smile was actually somewhat similar to Jing Mofeng.

With a smile on his face, the emperor didn't speak, just stretched out his wrist, Ling Qingrui came to his senses, his fingers caught the pulse, carefully diagnosed the pulse, but the more he diagnosed, the more shocked he was in his heart, the last time the emperor vomited blood because of chronic poison, and this time it was the same, and this time the toxicity was more hidden, it seemed that something was faintly suppressing this toxicity, but it was slowly assisting this toxicity, so that this poison slowly eroded the emperor's body!

When Ling Qingrui finished diagnosing her pulse and her fingers left the emperor's wrist, the emperor said, "I am also sick. ”

Ling Qingrui was even more shocked in her heart, the emperor said this, which meant that he knew that Concubine Xian was poisoned, and he knew more about the condition of his body, but he couldn't bear it, and he was all sick, which was ......

The emperor didn't seem to notice Ling Qingrui's surprise at all, reached out and took out a small brocade box from his arms, opened it and there were five pills, but handed it to Ling Qingrui and asked, "Don't you want to see it?" ”

Suppressing the doubts in her heart, Ling Qingrui stared at the five pills, faintly smelled a faint fragrance at the tip of her nose, and couldn't help but move in her heart, reached out and picked up a pill, sniffed it carefully, and her face gradually sank.

After a long while, Ling Qingrui put the pill back in its place and said, "If you are not mistaken, this pill is mixed with Hibiscus, and if you take it for a long time, it will be addictive, not only will you stop taking it, but you will definitely be miserable." ”

A hibiscus is a poppy.

Hearing this, the emperor showed such a look, took the pill back into his arms, and said: "Concubine Xian's illness is not cured by your An Jin County Lord, but the elixir of the Heavenly Daoist, do you understand?" ”

Ling Qingrui raised her eyes in surprise, and nodded slowly after a while.

Seeing that she seemed to understand, the emperor turned around and thought about the bookshelf when he came, and before entering the secret passage, he suddenly said: "Liuhua Palace will be cleaned later, don't leave Liuhua Palace." ”

After saying that, the emperor disappeared into the secret passage, and the bookshelf slowly moved back to its original position, as if the emperor had never appeared at all.

Ling Qingrui sat slowly on the futon, the more confused she thought about in her heart, the emperor's words and deeds today seemed to trust her very much, but there were many indescribable places, the last sentence seemed to say that he would clean up the people in Liuhua Palace, and Liuhua Palace would be a safe place, so let her stay in Liuhua Palace to avoid being poisoned, but even when the emperor was there before, someone might be watching, how to clean it up? It's really annoying that these things don't make sense.

For a night, Ling Qingrui couldn't think clearly, and it wasn't until the next day that the emperor personally sent the pill offered by Tianlin Daoist to Concubine Xian's Liuhua Palace, and personally fed Concubine Xian to eat, but before leaving, his eyes swept over Ling Qingrui's body, as if he was displeased.

Before the evening, everyone in the palace knew that the county lord An Jin failed to be a virtuous concubine this time, which made the emperor unhappy, and only Ling Qingrui knew why the emperor looked at her.

Last night, since the emperor said that Liuhua Palace should be cleaned, there will inevitably be action, if the cleaning goes well, the emperor does not need to feed Concubine Xian to eat the pill, the emperor's glance is telling her that the cleaning is blocked, he can only use this to cover people's eyes and ears, and then leave the matter to her.

After understanding the emperor's meaning, Ling Qingrui added a few more medicinal herbs to Concubine Xian's bath, just to relieve the toxicity of A Furong's addiction.

After repeating this for five days, the pill in the emperor's hand was used up, but the situation of the virtuous concubine had improved greatly, and she was able to sit outside occasionally, and there was no fear in her expression.

Tianlin Daoist deduced that the people in the Daomen did not value vulgar things, and pushed away the reward, only saying that among the pills refined for the virtuous concubine, there was one thing that coincided with the pills refined for the emperor, and the number of this thing was only enough to refine more than ten pills of pills.

The emperor was anxious to ask, after the Tianlin Taoist wanted to speak and stopped, no one knew, the world only knew that since talking with the Tianlin Taoist, the emperor had not been to the court for ten consecutive days, and he had never shown up in the harem, and he didn't know where he went!

The court was shocked, and hundreds of officials wrote to Prince De, who was temporarily in charge of the government, asking Prince De to advise the emperor that the dragon body is important, and the country and mountains are important.

Tianlin Daoist was forced to say something helplessly, and a group of courtiers learned that the emperor had never left the palace, but was trapped in the Yushuang Palace every day, burning incense and bathing every day, praying to the heavens, begging the sky to send frost, so as to refine the elixir, in order to live forever, and the court shook!

In the Yushuang Palace, everything was silent, and suddenly there was a sound of footsteps.

"How?"

"The courtiers were excited, and they wrote to advise, but Prince De only said that the holy will was difficult to violate, and he would not send it in the middle." Chen Debu stood still and replied.

"Hmm." The emperor answered, his eyes closed, as if he hadn't heard anything.

"Your Majesty, although the weather is getting colder and colder, there is still some time before the frost falls, so ...... go on like this."

Before Chen Debu's words were finished, the emperor suddenly opened his eyes, and the cold glint in his eyes startled Chen Debu, and the words were interrupted.

"There is still a while, and that day will come......"

After a while, the emperor came up with such a sentence, and Chen Debu was even more surprised, that day......
