The inner hall was particularly silent, Ling Wushuang walked to the window, looked at the various petals flying in the air, pursed her lips and did not speak, after a long time, her voice slowly came out of her lips: "What is the situation now?" Qingying replied, "This slave doesn't know. Turning around, Ling Wushuang looked at her and ordered, "You go out of the palace to find Xiao Gongzi's house, see the current situation of their mother and son, and then come back to me." ”

Qingying curtsied and replied, "Yes." Then she walked away quickly.

The breeze is gentle and the fragrance of flowers floats.

"Sister Shuang'er, Sister Shuang'er......" The master of Qingyang County didn't arrive, but the voice had already reached Ling Wushuang's ears, "Ling'er, you run slowly, be careful of falling!" As soon as he arrived at the gate of the Qianyue Palace, the county lord of Qingyang broke free from Yu Wenmingxuan's hand, lifted the hem of his skirt and ran into the hall, so that he had to speed up his pace to prevent a person from stumbling and falling to the ground under unstable feet.

"Sister Shuang'er, I want to listen to good stories." As soon as Ling Wushuang walked out of the inner hall, he was grabbed by the arm of the oncoming Qingyang County Lord: "Sister Shuang'er, why are you unhappy?" Ling Wushuang smiled slightly, and said softly: "Sister Shuang'er is fine, it's okay!" As she spoke, she reached out and patted the back of the Qingyang County Lord's hand gently.

"Sister Huang, do you have something on your mind?"

Yu Wenming Xuan asked Ling Wushuang with concern.

She must have something on her mind, otherwise she wouldn't frown slightly.

"Brother Huang, do you say that Hualou can be banned?" Ling Wushuang sat on the chair, his eyes fell on Yu Wenmingxuan, and he didn't reply to him, but started another conversation: "Women are born without the dignity of men, especially the daughters of poor families, or the young ladies who were implicated because their parents violated the national law, and they were forced to fall into the flower building because of this, for that reason, and washed their faces with tears all day long, and received ......customers without dignity" Somehow, as soon as the words in her mouth came out, she seemed to open the conversation box, and she spoke for nearly half an hour.

"Sister Huang, I'm afraid it's not easy to really ban Hualou." Yu Wenmingxuan's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he said his opinion, he didn't understand why Ling Wushuang, who was so dignified, would think of banning Hualou, "Moreover, the women who didn't necessarily fall into Hualou were all forced to pick up customers there." ”

Ling Wushuang smiled faintly.

Which woman with a little shame in the flower building will voluntarily pick up customers?

It's not that he was forced to be helpless, in order to survive, in order for his relatives to live better, he left his self-esteem behind for men to have fun.

She sighed and said, "There's always a way." Suddenly, a sneer overflowed from the corner of her mouth, if she wants to ban Hualou, then should she start with the industry behind her. But after thinking about it, her mind lit up, and she raised her eyes and asked Xue Ying, "How are the girls in Meifang Courtyard doing?" ”

Snow Shadow said: "According to the rules set by the master before, no one in charge of the courtyard dares to persecute those girls, it completely depends on the girls' own wishes. Ling Wushuang nodded: "Does business have an impact?" ”

"Nope."

"Still no one left voluntarily?"

Ling Wushuang asked Snow Shadow again.

Snow Shadow shook her head and said, "They said that when they left the courtyard, there was no place to go. ”

"Hmm." Ling Wushuang nodded, lowered his eyes and thought for a while, his slightly frowning brows gradually stretched, "Sister Shuang'er, are you tired?" The county lord of Qingyang blinked his big crystal eyes, stared at Ling Wushuang for a long time, and pointed his finger and said, "I don't want to listen to the story." Ling Wushuang raised his head, his gaze softened, turned to her and smiled, "Why don't you want to hear stories?" ”

The county lord of Qingyang pointed to Ling Wushuang's bulging abdomen: "The baby is tired, and Sister Shuang'er is also tired." "What a lovely little girl, Ling Wushuang smiled, got up slowly, stretched out his hand to the county lord of Qingyang, and said, "I'm not tired, and the baby is not tired, let's go to the imperial garden for a walk." The county lord of Qingyang got up, grabbed her arm, tilted his head and said, "Sister Shuang'er and the baby are really not tired?" ”

Ling Wushuang nodded with a smile.

Out of the Tilting Palace, Ling Wushuang told a beautiful fairy tale to the lord of Qingyang County as he walked.

The sun is shining, the wind is blowing, the birds are chirping, and the fragrance of flowers floating in the air is very refreshing.

After dealing with the excerpts, Xuanyuan Mo got the palace people's report and went directly to the Imperial Garden to find Ling Wushuang.

"Sister Shuang'er's story is so good......"

"Sister Huang, Ling'er, she is asleep, or I will send her back to the dormitory to rest first, and then come over to accompany you."

Ling Wushuang, the county lord of Qingyang, and Yu Wenmingxuan were sitting in a pavilion in the imperial garden at the moment, and listened to several stories one after another, Ling Wushuang didn't feel tired, but the county lord of Qingyang sat next to Yu Wenmingxuan, and fell asleep on his shoulder, "You take Ling'er back to rest, you don't have to come over to accompany me." Ling Wushuang spoke softly and said to Yu Wenmingxuan.

"Leaving the imperial sister here alone, I don't feel at ease." Yu Wenming Xuan hugged the county lord of Qingyang horizontally, and smiled warmly, "I'll be back in a while." ”

"What's upset?" Ling Wushuang smiled and said, "With the three of them accompanied by Snow Shadow, and there are guards guarding outside the Imperial Garden, there will be no danger." Seeing Yu Wenming Xuan standing still, Ling Wushuang smiled helplessly, and pointed to the small path outside the pavilion: "Your imperial brother-in-law is here, you should rest assured now!" Yu Wenming Xuan turned his head to look, and really saw Xuanyuan Mo walking towards the pavilion, so he nodded to Ling Wushuang and said, "That's okay, I'll wake up with her in the Ling'er Palace." ”

"Well, go ahead."

Ling Wushuang smiled and bowed his head.

"Is something wrong with Ling'er?" Xuanyuan Mo walked into the pavilion, sat down next to Ling Wushuang, and asked.

"She fell asleep listening to my story, and I was afraid that she would catch a cold, so I asked the imperial brother to carry her back to the dormitory first." Ling Wushuang explained to Xuanyuan Mo in a soft voice, "Otherwise, I'll accompany you back to the dormitory to rest." Holding people's shoulders, Xuanyuan's ink eyes were full of tenderness and sweetness.

"I'd like to sit down again." Ling Wushuang shook his head, looked at Xuanyuan Mo, and said, "There's something I want to talk to you about, and you can get an idea after listening to it." ”

Xuanyuan Mo put his head next to her head and hummed softly.

The wind was slow, a pair of beautiful people in the pavilion had light hair and fluttered the corners of their clothes, and the look on Xuanyuan Mo's face became slightly serious after Ling Wushuang spoke, "Are you angry?" Ling Wushuang asked him, Xuanyuan Mo did not answer, Ling Wushuang said again: "I just guessed, and the specific needs to be verified before I can assert it." ”

"I am ready to summon King Huai and King Yu back to Beijing and let them contribute to the court together."

"You agree with what I just said?"

Ling Wushuang asked.

"The flower building you mentioned, eight or nine times out of ten is the industry behind the two of them, and when they are called back to Beijing, one is that they do have some ability and can help the court; The other is to let them have a bottom in their hearts and strictly regulate the property in their hands, otherwise, I will destroy all the industry in their hands in one pot. Xuanyuan Mo's words were particularly serious, and after a moment of silence, he said again: "Under my nose, there are officials who do not act, what use do I want them?" Ling Wushuang's eyes gradually turned cold, and he said, "You have been on the throne for a while, is it possible that they still want to make trouble again?" ”

Xuanyuan Mo said quietly: "King Huai is an understanding, there should be no dissent, as for King Yu, he and King Huai are like mothers and compatriots, and they are bound to listen to King Huai's words, and they will not have two hearts for the court." ”

"That's the real inaction of those officials." If an official does not make decisions for the people, it is really useless to ask: "If you want to move, you must make a big move, and you must act vigorously and resolutely, kill one and set an example, and play a deterrent role." ”

At this time, Qingying hurriedly walked into the pavilion, bowed to Xuanyuan Mo and Ling Wushuang, and then said to Ling Wushuang: "Master, Xiao Gongzi's mother and son are ......" Qingying sent her out of the palace to Xiao Gongzi's house to inquire about the news, and told Ling Wushuang all over the news. "I want to go out of the palace to show their mother and son, maybe I can save their lives." Ling Wushuang looked at Xuanyuan Modao.

"Wouldn't it be enough to let the imperial doctor go?"

For the sake of Ling Wushuang's safety, Xuanyuan Mo did not approve of him leaving the palace.

"If a person's heart is dead, I'm afraid it's useless for the imperial doctor to go. At the beginning of the poetry conference, that Xiao Gongzi once helped me, not to mention that the grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring, but for the sake of his blind old mother, I also wanted to see him. ”

"I'll go with you."

Xuanyuan Mo got up, she wanted to go, and he accompanied her.

"You can send someone to do what I say to you, and the four shadows will accompany me." Ling Wushuang did not approve of Xuanyuan Mo accompanying her out of the palace.

After pondering for a moment, Xuanyuan Mo said: "I will send secret guards to protect you secretly, and you must not stay outside the palace for too long." He had said that he would listen to her, and he would not displease her against her will. Besides, he had to cook what she just said, so that she would not have to worry about it all the time and affect her mood.

"Hmm."

Ling Wushuang smiled and nodded.

Xuanyuan Mo said again: "Let the imperial doctor go with you." ”

"I know what I do." Ling Wushuang answered him softly, and walked out of the pavilion with Qingying.

Looking at the distant backs of Ling Wushuang's master and servant, Xuanyuan Mo said to the air: "Secretly protect the queen!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Several secret guards hidden in the shadows answered in unison, and then silently chased after Ling Wushuang's master and servant.

Ling Wushuang's master and servant left the palace in an inconspicuous carriage. Behind her carriage was followed an equally inconspicuous carriage, in which sat an old imperial doctor who was over half a hundred years old.

"Master, go through a few more alleys, and you will arrive at Xiao Gongzi's house." Qingying lifted the curtain and looked out, then turned to Ling Wushuang and said. Ling Wushuang didn't say anything, just nodded.

The carriage finally stopped at the door of Xiao Gongzi's house, and the four shadows jumped out of the car one after another, and then helped Ling Wushuang to step down.

It's a humble alley surrounded by simple and dilapidated houses.

The courtyard door of Xiao Gongzi's house was hidden, Qingying pushed the door open, Ling Wushuang raised his legs and stepped in, and the old imperial doctor who came down from the carriage behind followed her closely with a medicine box.

Seeing that the courtyard was dirty and messy, Ling Wushuang spoke to the phantom, and Hua Ying ordered, "Clean up this place." ”

"Yes."

Phantom, Flower Shadow took the order, and immediately found a broom to clean the yard.

"Master, you sit on the chair and wait first, the slave maid and Xue Ying go into the house to clean up, and then you and Imperial Doctor Li go in to diagnose Xiao Gongzi's mother and son." Qingying carried a bamboo chair that was still able to sit on people, wiped the dust on it with a handkerchief, Fu Ling Wushuang sat down, and called Xue Ying into the house where Xiao Gongzi's mother and son lived.

The yard is not large, there is only one room.

The inner room is separated by wooden boards inside and outside the two small bedrooms, and Xiao Gongzi's mother and son lie on the chuang one mile and one outside.

"Who ......" Qingying and Xueying cleaned the outside, Xiao Gongzi lying on the chuang, like a living dead, opened his eyes and did not make a sound, when the two of them entered the inner room to clean, Xiao's mother heard the sound in the house, and struggled to get up from the chuang, with a pair of blind eyes, and asked in a trembling voice.

Qingying stepped forward, helped her lie down, and said softly: "Auntie, our master saw that you and Xiao Gongzi are here." ”

"Your master?" Aunt Xiao struggled to sit up again when she just lay down, "Auntie, our master is the current queen's mother, she heard about your mother and son, so she specially came out of the palace to you." "Aunt Xiao doesn't seem to believe it, how can the queen mother come to see their mother and son?" Girl, girl is lying to my wife! Because of her physical illness, she struggled to speak the words.

Qingying sat down beside her, held her hand and said, "No, I didn't lie to the eldest lady. Xiao Gongzi once helped my master, so when the master heard about him, he came over to take a look. Speaking of this, Qingying's words paused slightly, and then said: "Speaking of which, the eldest lady should know my master's son." ”

Aunt Xiao shook her head, indicating that she didn't know what to do.

Blind for many years and unable to move, how could she know which Queen Mother of Ludao was.

Qingying said: "When the eldest lady went to the street to look for Xiao Gongzi and accidentally fell, I and my young lady sent you home, and accompanied you until Xiao Gongzi came back from work." After Qingying said this, Aunt Xiao thought for a while and said, "Is it the eldest lady of Jing'an Houfu?" ”

"Auntie, you have a good memory." Qingying said with a smile.

Aunt Xiao was suddenly emotional, and said in a weak voice: "Miss Ling is kind to me, I have always remembered her!" I didn't expect her to be the queen mother now. But, what is the use of her coming, my poor son is afraid that she is leaving......" said her, tears dripping involuntarily from her eyes. Qingying comforted: "Don't worry, Auntie, Xiao Gongzi will be fine." My master has very good medical skills, and she also brought the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat Xiao Gongzi and you. ”

"It's useless, it's useless. The stupid boy was fascinated by his sister, and when his sister died, his heart died. He doesn't care about me, an old woman, and is bent on death, even if he barely saves him, what can he do? He's become a wreck, he can't do anything, and he's not waiting to die at home! ”

"Auntie, don't be so pessimistic, with my master, I won't let Xiao Gongzi become a waste. You should relax and let the imperial doctor give you a pulse diagnosis first. Seeing the imperial doctor come in with a medicine box, Qingying got up, saluted the imperial doctor, and stepped aside to wait. Outside, Ling Wushuang personally took the pulse of Xiao Gongzi.

After a long time, she withdrew her hand and looked at Xiao Gongzi: "Are you so good?" ”

Xiao Gongzi's eyes were dull and he didn't say a word.

The broken bones of his legs were wrapped in coarse cloth, thinking that Aunt Xiao was groping to wrap him. The pain was not felt at all for him, just because his mind was imprisoned by himself, he didn't think about anything, and just waited quietly for death to come.

His face was pale and thin, and he didn't react at all to what Ling Wushuang said.

"Do you know who I am?" Ling Wushuang asked him, "I am the eldest lady of Jing'an Houfu, and I once played a tune on your piano. In the past, I was verbally humiliated, and was abandoned by the king of Qi, and became the laughing stock of the world, at that time, I didn't think about death, but what about you? A dignified son, but because of the love of his children, he gave up his life, put you up, loved you, and loved your old mother. You are really contemptible! The dull light in Xiao Gongzi's eyes gradually dissipated, and then came out of pain.

Ling Wushuang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and continued, "I've heard everything that happened between you and that girl. People can't be resurrected after death, and people who are alive still need to continue to live, because you are not alone, you have a mother to support, and you have your own ideals to realize. ”

"She, she died so miserably, I became a waste, a waste............ Xiao Gongzi finally opened his mouth to speak, although his voice was very soft, but Ling Wushuang heard it in his ears, and said: "In order to keep her innocence, she will jump off the building to her death, she is a good girl with a strong personality." What are you compared to her? ”

"I'm useless, I'm useless...... I love her, but I can't save her from the fire pit."

Tears slipped out of the corners of Xiao Gongzi's eyes, soaking the hair of his sideburns.

"She's the daughter of a sinner, how can you save her?" Ling Wushuang raised his eyebrows and looked at him.

The top card of Hualou who secretly had a love affair with Xiao Gongzi, his father committed a serious crime, and was raided by Emperor Yongjia during his reign, the male was confiscated into the army, and the female was sold into a large family as a maid, as for how to fall into Hualou and become the top brand, this is currently Ling Wushuang does not know what to do. The father's crime involved his wife and children, Ling Wushuang felt that it should not be, but the laws of this era were there, and if they wanted to break it, the only way for her and Mo to work together to draw up a new legal system.

However, it will definitely not be achieved overnight.

Xiao Gongzi listened to Ling Wushuang's words, and the gleam in his eyes became sluggish again, "The emperor has already started to take care of that flower building, and that girl will not die in vain." Xiao Gongzi looked at Ling Wushuang for verification, "Do you think it's necessary for me to lie to you?" Ling Wushuang hooked the corners of his mouth, and a sneer crossed his eyes: "I despise spineless men the most." If you don't want to be looked down upon by me, live well, for the sake of your hard-working mother, and for your own sake! ”

"I'm scrapped, scrapped ......, what's the use of living?" Xiao Gongzi's eyes showed a thick depression and sadness, "You two untie the strip of cloth at the place where his broken leg is broken, and I'll show him." Ling Wushuang instructed the Flower Shadow and the Phantom.

"Yes, master."

The flower shadow and the phantom responded, stepped forward to untie the strips of cloth wrapped around Xiao Gongzi's legs layer by layer, and according to Ling Wushuang's instructions from the side, he cleaned up the wounds with medicinal wine, and then retreated to the side and waited.

After carefully examining Xiao Gongzi's injured leg, Ling Wushuang said: "I can heal your leg, but whether you can stand up and walk normally depends on your perseverance!" Xiao Gongzi's eyes were full of tears, and he wanted to sit up with his arms propped up, but when Huaying saw this, he hurriedly walked to his side and helped him to sit on the chuang, "Can I really be okay?" ”

"As long as you have perseverance, you can definitely be good!"

Ling Wushuang affirmed.

Xiao Gongzi nodded vigorously: "I have, I have ......"

"That's good." Ling Wushuang smiled with satisfaction and said, "I'll give you the broken bones today, and tell the imperial doctor to come and change the dressing for you every few days, and when it reaches a certain number of days, I will ask the imperial doctor to pass on the message to you, and then you will do a good job of exercising according to what I said, and you will definitely be able to stand up and walk again." ”

"Grass people Xie Lu Xie, Xie Lu Xie Queen Mother!" Xiao Gongzi sat on the chuang and kowtowed to Ling Wushuang three times in a row.

Ling Wushuang said, "Don't thank me. You and I met by fate, and I just heard the girl say that something happened to you, so I went out of the palace to see you. The corners of Xiao Gongzi's mouth tightened, and he looked at Ling Wushuang with tears, "Your mother's sick imperial doctor is looking at her inside, when I leave, I will buy two girls to take care of your mother and son's life, you don't have to worry about the time or anything, just take care of your mother's illness." Speaking of this, Ling Wushuang raised his eyes and swept around the room, then said, "Do you have the heart to gain fame?" "Xiao Gongzi's outer space is a little smaller, but there are two simple wooden bookshelves on which a lot of books are piled up.

"I, can I?" Xiao Gongzi asked in a trembling voice.

Since Emperor Qinglan succeeded to the throne, Daqi implemented the imperial examination system, and no matter whether the status is high or low, you can rely on real talent and real learning to gain fame. And other countries on this continent follow the ancestral system from the children of the nobility, select officials on the basis of merit, or hereditary, recommended, etc., and the children of ordinary people have no chance to enter the court to serve the country and the people.

"The emperor will soon promulgate a new legal system, and will implement the current imperial examination system of Daqi, you can do it."

Ling Wushuang said with a faint smile.

"Really?" Xiao Gongzi confirmed again.

"Nature is true." Ling Wushuang nodded and replied, "Seeing that there are so many books in your family, your family background should be good before, right?" ”

Ordinary people don't have so many books in their collections.

Xiao Gongzi glanced in the direction of the bookshelf and said, "When I was young, my family was also a rich and noble family. Clinker, once my father went out to do business, was framed and lost a large book, and the house and everything was built into it, but these books were my father's lifeblood, and he said that he had to take these books with him...... later, my father felt sorry for my mother and me, and ended up depressed. Not long after my father died, my mother cried blind in a pair of eyes, and since then, our family has fallen! Speaking of the past, the tears in Xiao Gongzi's eyes did not stop.

"After going through hardships, you have to know how to cherish it more, and you need to work hard with perseverance, so that you can be worthy of your dead father and your blind mother. Remember, only cowards can do it. Ling Wushuang said, glancing at the few wooden planks she needed from the courtyard that Phantom had found, "I'll graft your bones right away, it may hurt, you bear with it." The words fell, without waiting for Xiao Gongzi to nod, she used force one after another, and saw Xiao Gongzi grasping the corners of the quilt with both hands, the green tendons on the back of his hands were prominent, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his lips were bitten by him, dripping out a few drops of blood, you can imagine how painful he is at the moment.

With the help of the phantom, Ling Wushuang used a wooden board to fix the broken bones for him, and raised his head and said, "Okay! ”

"Thank you...... Xie Lu Xie ......"

Before the words in his mouth were finished, Xiao Gongzi fainted, and Hua Ying hurriedly reached out to catch his body and gently let him lie down on the chuang.
