Chapter 640 - Relapse of the old disease
Meng Jingwen and Qiang'er were enjoying themselves here, but on the other side, Mu Lingtian couldn't sleep, and he couldn't sleep, so he got out of bed and walked to the window, looking at the night outside, and the full moon in the night sky was also covered by gray clouds.
One night many years ago, Mu Lingtian had seen such a night, when it was still pouring rain in the night sky, and the air was filled with the smell of blood overflowing from the corners of the concubine's mouth.
At that time, in Mu Lingtian's opinion, the most incompetent side of himself was completely placed in front of him at this moment, how much he hoped that he could be strong enough and have his own power, so that even this big harem land could have the ability to protect his mother.
Recalling the past, Mu Lingtian's clenched palm unconsciously sank his fingers into the palm of his hand, and the blood was also stained on his fingernails, even in the moonlight, it looked demonic and terrifying.
In short, Mu Lingtian would never forget the most powerless scene, and it was precisely because of this that Mu Lingtian woke up in shock, and then successively established Tianmen, one of the four major assassin organizations in the capital.
Under the painstaking management, it has also gathered a lot of ministers of the Chu State, which is a force to be reckoned with in the undercurrent of the capital, and in many invisible places, there is the penetration of Mu Lingtian's power, which radiates to all parts of the Chu State.
As well as the five major kingdoms, it can be said that as long as it is in this collection of intelligence, except for the pervasive net gate of decades ago, it should be the sharpest of Mu Lingtian's heavenly gates, and any official who does not make a mistake will be more or less collected by the spider shadow under Mu Lingtian's hands.
But Mu Lingtian didn't bother to use these means, he understood that these could only be used at critical times, and they were all about convincing people with virtue unless they had to, although the effect was slower than that of coercion, but for long-term considerations, this was the general trend.
"Mother, I can't let go of it, and I can't untie the knot." At this time, Mu Lingtian looked at the direction of the palace, which happened to be the direction of the many exits in the courtyard, Mu Lingtian couldn't help but sigh when he thought of the past and then thought about the current situation, and his eyes were a little complicated.
In this silence, suddenly in the courtyard garden, a figure came over, not like a small servant in the palace, which aroused Mu Lingtian's curiosity, and then looked over, and the figure immediately walked out of the shadow of the garden.
Came to the moonlight, under the background of the moonlight, Mu Lingtian recognized that this person was actually Gao Li'er, the personal female official in the palace, beside the concubine, at this time, Mu Lingtian's heart tightened, and he immediately returned to the room to get dressed, walked out, and happened to have a face-to-face with Gao Li'er.
"How is the concubine in the palace?" On weekdays, Gao Li'er would not often come to Mu Lingtian's mansion to walk around, just like Mu Lingtian's mother, only in the backyard of the palace, only at a critical moment, would she be in such a hurry as she is now.
Gao Li'er was out of breath at this time, but after seeing Mu Lingtian, her face was also much calmer, and she immediately said: "Lord, Niangniang's old illness has been committed again, so the prince should enter the palace again and visit Niangniang." ”
Sure enough, Mu Lingtian tossed and turned in the middle of the night, and the thing he was most worried about still happened, and then his eyes were fixed, and his heart was irritable, but after all, he was also knowledgeable, and he knew that he couldn't panic at this time, so he immediately asked: "The moon is by the side of the concubine?" The king doctor in the palace is invited? ”
Mu Lingtian remembered that at this time, Doctor Wang should be ordered into the palace as soon as possible to treat his mother.
Needless to say, she has been by her mother's side since she was a child, and she should have rushed over to the Moon Palace as soon as possible and accompanied her mother.
"The Ninth Princess and Doctor Wang are already in the Diefeng Palace, and it is Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess who asked her concubines to come and ask Her Royal Highness to come over." After Gao Li'er finished speaking, Mu Lingtian had already rushed out of the courtyard and walked all the way in the direction of the imperial city.
Mu Lingtian didn't change lanes all the way, the structure of this courtyard was originally to go out in the direction of the imperial city, and the biggest advantage was that he was able to quickly walk out of the palace when the concubine was sick.
Mu Lingtian walked out of the palace and came to the gate of the palace in the capital, it was midnight at this time, the two guards in front of the palace gate were waiting in that place, and when they saw someone breaking in, they crossed the halberd and blocked Mu Lingtian's way.
"His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, it is already late at night at this time, and without the permission of the emperor, it is not easy for the villain to let His Highness in privately, Your Highness, look...."One of them recognized Mu Lingtian, and immediately looked at each other, and couldn't help but smile embarrassedly and said.
However, at this time, Mu Lingtian had no intention of negotiating, and immediately wanted to beat the two guards in front of him to the ground, but just as he was about to make a move, the waitress Gao Li'er behind him immediately grabbed Mu Lingtian's arm, and said at the risk of death: "Your Highness, the edict that Gao Li'er came out of before is only able to go out once, as for going in, the concubine is also powerless, but she must not rush into the imperial city at will, otherwise tomorrow Your Majesty will be furious, and Gao Li'er can't afford to scold her mother, Please also ask Your Highness not to be cautious for the sake of Gao Li'er's dedication to serving her mother. ”
Gao Li'er knew that Niangniang was not very favored in the first place, and Mu Lingtian was even more because of his merry and happy nature, so the emperor was not reused, and now he couldn't enter the palace with a summons like Dr. Wang, and he would be punished by the emperor tomorrow morning.
In this way, the smart and clever Gao Li'er hurriedly persuaded Mu Lingtian at this time, and at the same time found an excuse to let Mu Lingtian step up.
Under Gao Li'er's explanation, Mu Lingtian immediately calmed down and looked at the two guards in front of him, revealing his fierce light.
But in the next moment, he immediately turned around, and thought about many ways to enter the palace in his mind, but whenever he looked up and saw the palace gate hundreds of meters above his head, which was higher than the city wall of the capital, he immediately felt a chill in his heart, and Gao Li'er was on the side, looking at it.
"Your Highness, in fact, there is no way to get in." Gao Li'er suddenly said at this time: "When you enter this palace compound, in fact, Your Highness also knows it in your heart, that is, the oracle of the Holy Decree, and the other one, this is the token that acts as the Holy Decree." ”
Divine decree? Mu Lingtian had never even seen the emperor's figure, where did he find the holy decree she said now? So at the moment, there is only one way to use the token, but who is not careful to use the token that can be used as a holy decree to enter and exit the palace at will, and take it out as a life-saving magic weapon at the moment of life and death.
Mu Lingtian also thought of the few people holding this kind of token for a while, but each of them was not the master who could hand over the token easily, so Mu Lingtian once again fell from excitement to the trough.
"I wanted to give it a try, but it was estimated that it was already ten minutes of dawn on the second day, and if I could enter the palace at that time, it would be meaningless." If this is the case, it would be good to enter the palace with the jade emblem directly in the early dynasty, so why use these cumbersome objects?
After thinking about it, Mu Lingtian knew that now there was only one way to trespass into the palace, even if it was the crime and punishment he faced later, Mu Lingtian was willing to bear it, and made a good decision, he immediately strode forward and walked towards the inner courtyard of the palace, the light in his eyes was as sharp as a sharp sword, unstoppable.
Seeing that Mu Lingtian was about to collide with the guards of the Imperial City, Gao Li'er was anxious on the side, but she didn't dare to stop Mu Lingtian, who had always done things and made decisions again, she just lowered her head and didn't look at Mu Lingtian.
"Fourth Highness, please stay." Just as Meng Mu Ling Tian strode out in the third second, a call came from behind him, Mu Li was curious about who this person was, and immediately turned around and looked at the other end, only to see that there were eight people carrying a bright red sedan chair that could be seen even in the moonlight, and was walking towards his side.
"Eldest princess, Princess Wen Yao?" Mu Lingtian looked at the cherry blossom pattern on it, and immediately thought of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, the only person in the capital who used the cherry blossom carving, but this voice was obviously a man's voice.
The relationship between the eldest princess and Mu Lingtian is not good or bad, it can be regarded as a normal relationship between the imperial aunt and nephew, so on weekdays, she will not move around often.
However, at this time, there was a light in Mu Lingtian's eyes, because in Mu Lingtian's mind, a key point immediately flashed, that is, among those few who controlled the token of entering and leaving the palace at will like the holy decree, the eldest princess was one of them, as long as the eldest princess was willing to borrow this token, then no matter what conditions the eldest princess proposed.
As long as he can do it, then Mu Lingtian will definitely do his best to do something for Her Royal Highness the eldest princess.
However, the people in the sedan chair seemed to have guessed what Mu Lingtian was thinking at this time, and when the sedan chair fell in front of Mu Lingtian and the others, he said extremely happily: "The Fourth Highness also knows that there is no loss-making deal in the world, as long as His Highness agrees to me a condition, then the minister is willing to give this turquoise token with both hands." ”
The man in the sedan chair didn't have ink, he immediately waved his hand outside, and a blue-green round hollow token flew out like this, Mu Lingtian was agile, and immediately caught the green jade-colored round token, Mu Lingtian looked at the token on it, and sure enough, it was engraved with the word Wen Yao with a golden edge, and he was even more sure at the moment.
The person who came must be Princess Wen Yao's person, and then raised his head excitedly and said, "Your Excellency's surname, what do you need this king to do?" ”
Mu Lingtian has never been a person who does not repay his gratitude, and now that he can get the token to enter the palace, of course, he is extremely excited, and he feels extremely grateful to the people in this sedan chair.
The person in the sedan chair was also polite, and then said: "Let you give up Miss Meng of An Guogong, are you still willing?" The people in the dumplings, from the moment they appeared to the present, looked a little strange, and now they couldn't help but be stunned, making such a request, even if they were as far-sighted as Mu Lingtian, they were also shocked by this person's request.
Do you want him to give up and Meng Jingwen? Not to mention Mu Lingtian and Meng Jingwen, just look at the people in the sedan chair who ask a lot of questions, what kind of motivation is in their minds.
If Mu Lingtian and Meng Jingwen were separated, then what kind of benefits would it have for the mysterious figure in the sedan chair, so that Meng Jingwen would not secretly promise to the people in the sedan chair after leaving Mu Lingtian, right?
For the kicking of the person in the sedan chair, Mu Lingtian's Qingyu round token in his hand seemed to become hesitant and powerless, at this time, he couldn't understand that the life and safety of the concubine was important, or Meng Jingwen's safety and sound, the meaning of that period of the past made him unable to let go, he was in a hurry, but now he had to stop and think.
This scene fell in the eyes of the people in the sedan chair, and immediately caused the people in the sedan chair to laugh, and immediately said with a smile: "I just made a joke with the four highnesses, I hope that the four highnesses don't take it to heart, at the moment I have not thought about what conditions the four highnesses will agree, your highness, please rest assured to enter the palace to visit the mother, and there will be no more disturbances in the next." After the right man in the sedan chair said this, he immediately signaled to his subordinates, and the people under him understood, and immediately picked up the sedan chair, and under Mu Lingtian's gaze, he slowly turned around and left.
