Yan Qingyu stepped forward cautiously, and then sat next to Emperor Songde.

"Good boy." Emperor Song Dedi looked at Yan Qingyu with some distress, "Is your leg really okay?" ”

Yan Qingyu nodded, "It should be fine soon, father, don't worry, it's not good for my son to worry about my father these days." ”

"How so?" Emperor Songde was full of joy, "Seeing that your legs can be good is the happiest thing for my father." ”

The father and son sat and chatted for a while, and Emperor Songde did not mention the matter of looking for Hua Guifei again.

About an hour later, Emperor Songde was a little sleepy, so he asked Yan Qingyu to go back, and he lay down to rest.

Yan Qingyu walked out of the Qiankun Palace and saw Gonggong Cheng waiting there.

"Father lay down and rested." Yan Qingyu said in a low voice.

"Great." Father-in-law Cheng said happily, "The prince is really the emperor's favorite child, if it weren't for the prince's presence today, the emperor's poison may be deeper." ”

Yan Qingyu sighed softly, "No matter what, if this continues, my father's body will definitely get worse and worse, and I still have to find a way to cure the poison in the emperor's body." ”

Gonggong Cheng nodded, "The emperor has already instructed Taifu Ji to study the antidote, Taifu's medical skills have always been excellent, and I believe that the emperor and the prince will not be disappointed." ”

"It's better to be like this." Yan Qingyu nodded, and then he approached Cheng's father-in-law again, and said in a low voice, "See you at the old place tonight." ”

Chenggong raised his eyebrows, nodded, and said in a loud voice, "Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

In the evening, Jiang Yingning received news again that Shangguan Yunning had taken the prescription away, and it seemed that she would really be pregnant soon, but this child would never be born.

At the same time, the father-in-law in the palace secretly left the palace and went to a small courtyard outside the palace in a carriage.

As soon as I entered, I saw that Princess Jingxin, dressed in plain clothes, was already waiting there.

"Little darling!" Father-in-law Cheng shouted lightly, and then stepped forward and hugged Princess Jingxin.

Princess Jingxin didn't show any abnormality, as if she was used to it, and let Chenggong's hand roam over her.

About half an hour later, Chenggong put on a black cloak, left the small courtyard, and rode to the palace in a carriage. The direction went.

It's just that not long after the carriage left the small courtyard, it was stopped on its way.

"Who are you?" Father-in-law Cheng asked with a dark face, "This is the carriage in the palace, and you dare to stop it?" Don't want to die? ”

The person at the head was wearing a black night suit, took off the black face scarf, and revealed a familiar face, which turned out to be Gu Zhun who followed Wen Jilin a few days ago.

He sneered and said, "Father-in-law Cheng, Mrs. Ji is invited." ”

Cheng's father-in-law's face immediately turned pale, but he didn't dare to refuse the other party, so he could only obediently follow him to a restaurant not far away.

Ji Zhongli was waiting for him in a private room, and when he saw him come in, he said with a smile, "Father-in-law Cheng is really old and strong, at such an age, he will go out of the palace to meet girls privately." ”

Cheng's father-in-law's face turned pale, and he hurriedly denied it, "Taifu said that he was laughing, he just saw an old man from before, not a girl." ”

He said with a wry smile, "Taifu also knows that I am just a eunuch, an old eunuch who is useless, how can I have a private relationship with a girl?" ”

Ji Zhongli's expression was calm, and he took a sip of tea before he said lightly, "It seems that Father-in-law Cheng wants me to go to the courtyard and invite people over to confront him?" ”

Father-in-law Cheng was so frightened that he sat down on the ground all of a sudden, and kowtowed to Ji Zhongli frantically, "Taifu, please spare my life, I don't dare, I don't dare anymore, please raise your noble hand too much." ”

Ji Zhongli stood up and looked at Gonggong Cheng condescendingly, "Did Yan Qingyu give you Princess Jingxin?" ”

The sweat on Chenggong's forehead became more and more, and he looked up at Ji Zhongli with some fear, but did not answer his question. ”

"What? Do you still want to help Yan Qingyu now? Ji Zhongli walked a few steps to the window, "He first sent someone over to make you make a big mistake, and then used this incident to blackmail you into cooperating with him, are you sure you want to help such a person?" ”

Father-in-law Cheng gritted his teeth, Ji Zhongli guessed correctly, he just liked to have fun with some young palace maids, and he didn't want to touch any princess in the palace, even the princess Jingxin, who was completely unfavored.

But unexpectedly, once when he finished his duty in Qiankun Palace and returned to his residence, he saw a young meditation waiting there.

Although he already had some dirty thoughts at that time, he was never half presumptuous, because he didn't dare.

So the moment he saw the meditation, he knelt down.

However, before he could say anything, Jingxin took off his clothes and walked up to him, and the rest of the things that Chenggong didn't dare to recall until now.

In short, he did the most regrettable thing in his life, and then became Yan Qingyu's lackey.

If you don't hate Yan Qingyu, it's impossible.

Ji Zhongli turned to look at Cheng's father-in-law's expression, and he had already guessed the old guy's thoughts, "There are two paths in front of you now, one, pretend that nothing happened, go back and continue to be Yan Qingyu's lackey, but when I need it, you have to do something for me." ”

Ji Zhongli paused for a moment, and then said, "The second is that you refuse the first thing, and then leave Kyoto right now, maybe I can spare your life, but I don't know if Yan Qingyu can spare you." ”

After cooperating with Yan Qingyu for so many years, Father-in-law Cheng clearly knows that if he escapes now, even if Yan Qingyu chases him to the ends of the earth, he will never leave himself alive.

Therefore, he had no choice at all, so he could only listen to Ji Zhongli's words.

He said in a deep voice, "Mrs. Ji, the old slave is willing to serve the old slave, and I just want the old slave to live when the master is successful." ”

Ji Zhongli was not surprised, nodded with satisfaction, and asked deliberately, "Then what do you think I can do?" ”

Gonggong Cheng looked up at Ji Zhongli, hesitated for a moment before saying slowly, "Naturally, it is to ascend to the throne of the Great Jin Dynasty." ”

Ji Zhongli neither admitted nor denied it when he heard this, but smiled loudly, "Father-in-law Cheng is really bold!" Okay, you go back, don't let the prince be suspicious, don't worry, I won't look for you easily, but how to serve the prince in the future, I believe that Chenggong should understand in his heart. ”

Cheng's father-in-law kowtowed before standing up, "Please rest assured, the old slave is measured." ”

Then, he glanced at Ji Zhongli again before turning around and leaving.

He believed that he had guessed correctly, Ji Zhongli's intention was never to help a prince get the throne, but to take that position himself.

And after so many years, he also believes that Ji Zhongli can do it.

Thinking about it like this, he was even more determined to help Ji Zhongli, maybe from this moment on, he chose the right master.
