Yuwangfu

The evening breeze is sultry, the breeze is not dry, and the Yuwang Mansion in the middle of the night is unusually quiet.

At tonight's family banquet, Leng Yu accompanied Liu Dechang to drink a glass of water and wine, although he was not drunk, he was in a very bad mood.

After returning to the room, he asked Ah Gang to bring a pot of tea, and after pouring it to himself, he was about to raise his glass and drink it, but was stopped by Luo Lan.

"Xianggong, tea is a refreshing thing, you drink tea before going to bed, don't you want to sleep at night?"

Leng Yu's expression was indifferent, and he sighed again and again,

"It's a long night, no sleepiness, what about sleeping late, it's better for the lady to sit down and have a drink with me."

Luo Lan took the teacup in his hand and put it on the table, sat opposite him and looked at him, and asked in some surprise:

"What's wrong with Xianggong today? Seems to have something on your mind? ”

Leng Yu still stubbornly picked up the teacup that had just been snatched by Luo Lan, took it to his lips and took a sip, then sighed and said:

"Lady, through today's events, I suddenly feel that being the emperor is very tired, not only to deal with national affairs and harem chores, but also to beware of being calculated by the people around him, have you seen the state of my father when he first arrived at the Lotus Pavilion? Mentally listless, the state is extremely poor, but after eating the small pill given by Liu Xi, he suddenly became energetic, I think you are right, this kind of small pill will make him mentally dependent, and sooner or later it will harm him, but who dares to imagine that this little pill is actually from the hands of his pillow man and his own son, this is really a bleak and tragic thing! ”

Seeing that Leng Yu was worried about this, she put her hands on the table, her chin on her hands, stared at him with dexterous and crystal eyes, and sighed helplessly,

"But even if we know that this is the case, we can't expose it to our faces, the emperor is now fascinated by that little pill, how can he believe what we say? Having said that, even if he believes it, there is no way for us to get him to quit this little pill, and according to his current physical condition, doing so may cost him his life. ”

"Then we can only sit down?"

Leng Yu picked up the teacup again and took a sip of tea, a resentful look appeared in his eyes.

Luo Lan simply snatched the water cup from his hand, and after pouring a new glass of water, he drank it in two sips, muttering in his mouth,

"What else can be done? What we have to do now is to work hard to accumulate our own strength, and we also want to work behind the embankment of Lengxi, I am now worried that once one day, after the emperor breaks off this small pill, he will lose all resistance ability, and when the time comes, it will be when the Daning Kingdom is in turmoil, and the war between your brothers will also be on the verge of breaking out. ”

"Although I don't want to turn against my brothers, but what Leng Xi has done in recent years is really infuriating, for my children, for you, for the people of Daning Kingdom, I took this war."

When he said this, there was a determined look in his eyes, and the fists on the table were clenched even tighter.

This room was quiet for a while, Luo Lan's heart was mixed, and Leng Yu's heart was full of emotion.

"Lord, someone has come to the palace."

Ah Gang's call broke the silence here, Leng Yu suddenly frowned, got up, and strode to open the door.

The moment the door opened, Liu Xi greeted him with a sad face,

"Lord Yu, visiting late at night, disturbing the dream of you and Princess Yu, the old slave is deeply sorry, but it is inconvenient for the old slave to go out of the palace during the day, and please don't blame the old slave for being abrupt."

Leng Yu looked at him with a frown, and asked puzzledly:

"Grandpa Liu came so late, is there something urgent?"

Liu Xi glanced at Ah Gang beside him, bowed to Leng Yu and said:

"Lord Wang, can you take a step to speak?"

After Leng Yu glanced at Luo Lan, he made a gesture to him, "Gonggong Liu, please inside." ”

After Liu Xi nodded, he followed Leng Yu into the house.

After Luo Lan poured a cup of tea for Liu Xi, he pushed it in front of him,

"Father-in-law Liu, please drink tea."

"How can the old slave have the heart to drink tea, the old slave came today to ask you two to save the emperor."

When he said this, Liu Xi suddenly slipped down from the chair, knelt on his knees, and looked at Leng Yu and Luo Lan with a sad face.

His action made Leng Yu's heart chuckle, no matter what, the emperor is also his father, and when he heard that he had something, his heart was still moved.

He hurriedly stepped forward and helped Liu Xi up,

"Father-in-law Liu, it's good if you have something to say, you don't have to do this."

Gonggong Liu has followed the emperor for many years and has always been conscientious, the emperor also trusts him very much, his status in the palace is quite high, so he never has to salute in front of all the princes or ministers, but today he suddenly came to visit in the middle of the night and gave this big gift, which had to make Leng Yu worry about whether something had happened to the emperor.

Liu Xi was supported by Leng Yu and sat back on the chair, and Luo Lan also asked worriedly:

"Father-in-law Liu, what's going on, you might as well say it directly."

Liu Xi sighed heavily, and said in a deep voice:

"You two also know that the emperor's health has been getting worse and worse recently, he used to take two small pills sent by the prince of Xi every day, but now he has to eat five or six pills a day, and when he goes to bed today, he has already eaten seven pills, the old slave is worried that this so-called elixir of life will not only not make people immortal, but will harm people, the old slave knows that Princess Yu has good medical skills, so the old slave wants to implore Princess Yu to see, what kind of medicine can make people addicted and confuse people in this small pill."

Liu Xi's words made Luo Lan stunned for a moment, she looked up at Leng Yu, and her brows instantly knotted together.

She didn't expect that the elderly eunuch in front of her would guess that there were unusual medicinal ingredients in this small pill.

Leng Yu listened to Liu Xi's words, and sighed with emotion,

"Gonggong Liu, I know that you are loyal to your father, otherwise you would not think of checking the medicinal properties of this little pill, in fact, I won't tell you, my wife and I also found out that there is a problem with this little pill, but now we have no other way, my father has indeed been addicted to this little pill for a long time, if he doesn't eat it for a day, he will be as uncomfortable as thousands of ants gnawing all over his body, but let him keep eating it, the final result is that in this little pill can be exciting, he will end up depressed......"

Leng Yu's words made Liu Xi's face instantly turn pale, he trembled, slipped down from the chair again, and pleaded with Leng Yu:

"Lord Yu, the old slave begs, save the emperor, he is only in his early fifties, he shouldn't have died so early, besides...... Besides, if the emperor really dies one day, then this Daning Kingdom will definitely set off a bloody storm, and you don't want to see such a result! ”
