The emperor took out an object from his bosom and showed it to Ling Ge Lao, and said, "Now I should call you Ling Guogong, after you and Xiao Mengzhi disappeared, I recalled all the secret passages I built with you, so I let the Jade Emperor Concubine move out of the Jade Concubine Palace." ”

"I sent Gonggong Jiang to find Xiao Mengzhi and buried her secretly, but I only have half of the talisman you left in my hand, of course I can't make a noise."

"For so many years, I have been waiting for you to come back, but I didn't expect that it was your daughter who came back first, since I can get that half of the talisman at any time, naturally I will wait for the queen to show my feet first, after all, what I didn't expect is that the queen's helper turned out to be the prince of the book!"

Ling Zhiqiao took off the wooden necklace from his neck, opened the mechanism, took out the other half of the talisman, and put it in the emperor's hand, and the two talismans were exactly opposite each other and tightly fit.

She choked up and asked, "Your Majesty, in this way, there is no secret about the Buddha beads, this is all smoke released by Your Majesty, right?" ”

The emperor walked in front of Qingyu's tablet and said in a low voice: "That's what I deliberately let out to say this, just to prevent Empress Jiang from going to the chanting hall, Qingyu is a maid who serves my biological mother in the cold palace, because my biological mother is a lowly person, so she will never have an identity, and no one will know about her existence, and she hates Qingyu mostly because of personal pain." ”

Therefore, she was not allowed to marry Qingyu, and naturally she was not allowed to tell the identity of the eldest princess, and when I became the emperor, she was no longer there, so I arranged Qingyu in the chanting hall.

Ling Zhiqiao was puzzled: "But Your Majesty won't know that it was the queen mother who killed her!" ”

"It's too late for me to know, and I don't recognize Song Siyan to protect her."

Ling Zhiqiao walked behind Ling Ge Lao who was kneeling in front of Xiao Mengzhi's tablet, stared at her mother's tablet, tears flowed uncontrollably, she comforted Ling Ge Lao and said, "Dad, my mother has been buried in the ground, you can finally rest assured." ”

Ling Ge Lao's shoulders shook for a while, and the silent crying showed the guilt in his heart at this time, he felt guilty and sad for his failure to save Xiao Mengzhi all his life, and now, when he finally let go of what he was thinking in his heart, his body was a little unable to support it.

Ling Ge Lao regained his composure after a while, and Ling Zhiqiao called Jin Gui'er, who was waiting outside the door, to help Ling Ge Lao out of the house with her.

Twilight Yunhan, who knew the truth, stepped forward and comforted: "Pavilion Elder, Qiao'er, my father has already told me where Mrs. Ling Guo is buried, and when you want to go to worship, let Han Li take you there." ”

Ling Zhiqiao also nodded sadly, and she said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, since the talisman has been returned, and my father's mission and I have been completed, there is still something to tell Your Majesty." ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

"Back then, the talisman was stolen by her aunt, and now she has been scared crazy by Qiao'er, so Qiao'er begs Your Majesty to spare her capital crime! Even if it was to punish her, she wouldn't feel it now. ”

The emperor touched his beard and pondered for a while, and said: "General Xiao has proposed to me, but I'm just afraid that Qiao'er will not agree, since you all have this will, I should be approved, but she is a femme fatale after all, aren't you afraid that one day she will not go crazy and bite you back?" ”

Ling Zhiqiao laughed at herself: "If that's the case, I have enough reasons to take revenge, and if I make a move, I won't hesitate." ”

"Then I don't have an opinion, I'm tired all these years, let's go!"

Gonggong Jiang stepped forward to help the emperor and asked, "Your Majesty, where are you going?" ”

"Go to the Jade Princess's palace to see the Jade Princess, and then talk to the eldest princess, I just don't know if she recognizes me."

After the emperor left, Ling Zhiqiao was a little stunned in her heart, she was wondering whether His Majesty the Emperor liked Qingyu or the Jade Imperial Princess, or if she used to like Empress Jiang too, she asked Du Yunhan and said, "Second Highness, won't a man's three wives and four concubines be schizophrenic?" ”

Twilight Yunhan was confused and asked, "What do you mean?" Isn't it normal for a man to marry several women? ”

Ling Zhiqiao glared at Du Yunhan fiercely, and after helping Ling Ge Lao into the sedan chair without saying a word, she walked towards the palace by herself.

Twilight Yunhan didn't know why she lost her temper, so she shouted at Ling Zhiqiao's back, "Qiao'er, did this king say something wrong?" ”

Jin Gui'er hurried after Ling Zhiqiao, and said to His Royal Highness in a hurry: "Your Highness still doesn't understand what Miss Ling means?" She just wants His Highness to like her alone, hey! ”

When Jin Gui'er chased out, Han Li stood beside Du Yunhan with his arms crossed and said, "Your Highness, you don't have any good fruit to eat." ”

Twilight Yunhan frowned, a trace of remorse flashed in his eyes, his heart had begun to grow like grass, and he wanted to chase Ling Zhiqiao, but because Han Li and the guards were present, he opened his lips lightly: "Han Li, your afterthought is really timely, if you say it, you don't say it, let's go!" Think about how to remedy it for the king. ”

Jin Gui'er followed Ling Zhiqiao closely, and didn't forget to help Twilight Yunhan explain: "Miss Ling, don't be angry with His Royal Highness the Prince, he didn't say that he wanted to marry three wives and four concubines, besides, His Highness will become a new monarch in the future, and it is normal to have a few more concubines in the harem, right?" ”

Ling Zhiqiao stopped and snorted angrily, "What does it matter to me if he is willing to marry a few concubines?" ”

Jin Gui'er said helplessly: "Miss Ling, you are the crown princess now, you can't be willful anymore, get on the sedan chair!" ”

"Cut, who is rare what princess? The man I like must only like me, otherwise everything is not to be discussed. Ling Zhiqiao said loudly.

"My young lady, ancestor, you can be quiet, don't say that this is in the palace, even if it is outside the palace, how can anyone talk like this, it is to make people laugh." Jin Gui'er stomped her feet anxiously.

Ling Zhiqiao said disdainfully: "I said Jin Gui'er, you dare to teach this girl a lesson when you are promoted?" You go back and tell Twilight Yunhan that if you want to marry me Ling Zhiqiao, he can only have one woman in his life, otherwise, I will never see him. ”

The more Ling Zhiqiao spoke, the more angry she became, and she walked faster and faster, and after a while, she threw Jin Gui'er and the little eunuchs carrying the sedan chair out of the way.

Jin Gui'er stopped panting, and said to the little eunuchs beside him who were also panting: "Don't chase it, I can't catch up, I'll go to His Royal Highness the Prince, you go back to the miscellaneous room!" ”

Jin Gui'er turned around and found Twilight Yunhan and Han Li, who were about to leave the palace.

Twilight Yunhan asked, "Has Jo'er returned to the General's Mansion?" ”

Jin Gui'er wiped the sweat on her head, and told Du Yunhan what Ling Zhiqiao had just said to Du Yunhan, listening to Du Yunhan's face becoming more and more ugly, angry is not like angry, and sorrow is not like sorrow.

Han Li also frowned and said, "Your Highness, I don't think Miss Ling's words are like a joke, maybe what she said is true?" You better comfort her first, how can His Highness marry Miss Ling alone? ”

Twilight Yunhan said angrily: "This king asks you, after you marry Zhang Liu'er, do you want to marry again?" ”

"I don't marry a concubine, I can't be sorry for Sister Liu'er, but I am different from His Royal Highness, you are going to inherit the throne in the future, how can there be only one queen?"

Twilight Yunhan let out a long sigh, "That's why it's worth being happy that my father has allowed me to marry Qiao'er today, but I'm not interested in the position of the crown prince." ”

"But after all, you are the prince, Your Highness, this is probably fate!"

Jin Gui'er comforted: "Your Highness, you and the Han guards still think about how to keep Miss Ling!" The little slave still has to go back to the miscellaneous room, Han Guard, but I have to persuade His Highness to think about it, otherwise there is no Miss Ling in this palace, wouldn't it be boring. ”

After Jin Gui'er left, Han Li asked, "Your Highness, you don't plan to, wait until Lingshui Village is built in Kyoto and then tell Miss Ling!" Will it be too late then? Let's go after it, how about it? ”

"What to chase, Qiao Er's temperament can't listen to what he says now, first do the things arranged by his father, and the king of tomorrow will go to the general's mansion in person." Although Du Yunhan was anxious, he felt that Ling Zhiqiao and Ling Ge Lao were in the General's Mansion, so it was impossible for them to disappear!

Early the next morning, Twilight Yunhan received a message from Xiao Qian, asking him to go to the General's Mansion quickly, and when he and Han Li arrived at the General's Mansion and entered the main hall, they saw Xiao Tao crying into tears: "Second Highness, Miss, Miss is gone." ”

Twilight suddenly became nervous and asked, "What do you mean it's gone, why is it gone?" Don't cry, say it. ”

"Not only is the young lady gone, but the eldest brother and the second brother are also gone, and I went to Mama Qin's yard just now to see that Mama Qin, Ling Guogong, and the maid Ling'er are all gone.

"Miss is gone, but she doesn't take me." Ling'er was sad not that Ling Zhiqiao said goodbye, but that Ling Zhiqiao not only said goodbye and didn't take her with her.

Han Li hurriedly said: "I didn't leave such a clue, or a letter or anything like that." ”

Xiao Qian got up and handed over a letter and said, "I left this, it was sealed, and the old man hurriedly informed His Highness before opening it." ”

Twilight Yunhan snatched the letter and tore open a corner, and her hands not only trembled.

Han Li took out the letter for Twilight Yunhan, and after opening it, the first sentence that caught Twilight Yunhan's eyes was: "My dearest Second Highness." ”

Twilight Yunhan asked Han Li suspiciously, "What is my dear?" ”

Han Li shook his head and said that he didn't know, Du Yunhan continued to read, Ling Zhiqiao didn't write much, but the meaning was very clear, she took Ling Ge Lao and the others back to Lingshui Village, she just wanted to live an ordinary life with Du Yunhan as a monogamous, and she was not ready to become the crown princess.

I didn't say goodbye because I couldn't stand the sad atmosphere, that is, I was reluctant to Xiao Qian, I was reluctant to let the little sisters in Beijing go, and I was even more reluctant to be cold.

She hoped that Twilight Yunhan would give her time to think about it, if she hadn't come back when the spring flowers were blooming, it must be that she hadn't thought about it yet, Ling Zhiqiao told Twilight Yunhan not to go to her, she didn't want to violate her monogamous principle because she couldn't refuse Twilight Yunhan, liking someone was selfish, how could she share it with others.

The letter also mentioned Xiao Tao, not that she was unwilling to take her, but that Xiao Tao was a registered palace maid in the palace, and she could not leave the capital without permission, if His Majesty wanted to blame her, Xiao Tao would be punished.

Xiao Tao's eyes were swollen from crying, and she said to herself: "I said that Miss let me go back to the house to sleep early last night, and gave me a bowl of soup that can make me beautiful, obviously she just wanted me to sleep, so she could escape." ”

Twilight Yunhan's face was gloomy, he folded the letter neatly and stuffed it into his arms, and said to Xiao Tao: "Xiao Tao, from now on, you go back to the palace, this king has built a palace for Qiao Er in the palace, you can wait for her to come back there!" ”

Xiao Tao said with teary eyes: "Miss can really come back?" ”

"As long as she can feel the heart of this king, she will come back sooner or later."

......

After the New Year's pass, the gray and bare branches pulled out new shoots, and the buds of various colors were about to burst out, Twilight Yunhan stood in Lingshui Village, which was restored to the side of the palace, and asked Han Li, "Do you think Qiao'er will like it?" ”

Han Li had married Zhang Liu'er at that time, and he was no longer the commander of the guards, but was named the secretary of the Criminal Department, he said with a smile: "Your Highness, I'm afraid that Gonggong Jin has already secretly sent a message to Miss Ling, and my subordinates guess that she will probably come back soon." ”

Twilight Yunhan had already asked Ling Ge Lao to draw the original appearance of Lingshui Village, including the house they lived in and the furnishings in the house, but he didn't tell Ling Ge Lao what he was going to do with it at that time.

Twilight Yunhan built a replica of Lingshui Village at the end of the palace side that connects to the lake outside the city, and on the surface, this Lingshui Village is in the palace, but it is not bound by the palace.

But when the spring flowers were gone, their wedding day had passed, and the summer lotus flowers had bloomed, Twilight Yunhan still didn't wait for Ling Zhiqiao.

Jiang Dawei, who had already succeeded Xiao Qian as the general, couldn't hold his breath, and was anxious to go to the real Lingshui Village to persuade Ling Zhiqiao to come back, but Twilight Yunhan disagreed, he knew that she was not ready, but he had already made up his mind before Ling Zhiqiao secretly ran away, and he would only marry Ling Zhiqiao in this life and this life.

The emperor had the company of the eldest princess Si Yan, and he was happy to enjoy the blessings with the Jade Imperial Concubine, and Du Yunhan officially ascended the throne as the new emperor in the winter of this year.

Jin Gui'er replaced Gonggong Jiang as the chief eunuch, and followed Twilight Yunhan every day, muttering to him to take Miss Ling back, which made Twilight Yunhan even more anxious, and he didn't want to plug Jin Gui'er's mouth all the time.

Another spring is coming, and everything is beginning to recover.

When Du Yunhan heard Jiang Dawei say that the spies he sent out brought back the news, Ling Zhiqiao had revitalized Lingshui Village, and also opened a clothing shop and a medicinal herb shop, and volunteered to become a villager in Lingshui Village, so she taught them these two techniques.

Twilight Yunhan decided that he couldn't wait any longer, and if he continued to wait, he would allow Ling Zhiqiao to continue to go wild, and that giving her a year should have enough time to play, and Twilight Yunhan had already endured it to the limit.

Just when Twilight Yunhan hadn't left yet, one day Jin Gui'er said that Xiao Tao asked Twilight Yunhan to go to Lingshui Village in the palace, because there were always strange phenomena in the village these days.

After Duyun Han got out of the morning dynasty and entered the village accompanied by Jin Gui'er, he didn't see Xiao Tao, and Jin Gui'er quietly retreated.

I saw a person standing under a peach blossom tree in a courtyard, and that courtyard was the house that Ling Ge Lao had painted for him, and Ling Zhiqiao lived in the original Lingshui Village.

Twilight Yunhan closed his eyes in disbelief and opened them again, the breeze blew, the peach blossoms of the trees flew in the wind, and the petals were swaying, that woman was really Ling Zhiqiao.

She looked at Twilight Yunhan with a smile and shouted, "Twilight Yunhan, I'm back." ”

Ling Zhiqiao in the Peach Blossom Rain later became the queen, while Twilight Yunhan became the only one in the history books recorded by the imperial historian Li Tingfeng who married only one queen in his life.

In the millennium, a pool of imperial cities, you and I have never known each other, why did we meet?

As the saying goes, there is already a fixed number in the dark, and we will work together to enjoy a prosperous life.

"If you want to look for it, you will eventually see the eyes full of green new branches and red flowers, thank you readers who support me, I will continue to work hard, this book ends today, I look forward to the next new self, love you."
