Liu Fu took Song Mei to the side hall of Qinzheng Hall, where the emperor and Xiao Yifeng could be heard talking, but what they said could not be heard clearly.
She was bored, so she found a book nearby to read, so that the emperor and Xiao Yifeng could see her serious profile when they came in.
The plum incense she often used was lit next to it. It seemed that the emperor really loved her and would not let her down.
At first, I just took the book as a pretense and didn't read it. Then I slowly started reading it and found out that it was a book for both men and women.
Song Mei blushed hard and quickly put the book away.
The old emperor became more and more superstitious. In addition to taking pills, he also thought about dual cultivation. He really thought he could cultivate immortality!
I found another travel journal and started reading it slowly.
——
At this time, the imperial study room.
"Song Mei is a good person. You go back first and let me think about this matter later."
"Don't worry, it's yours, it's all yours."
These words seemed to be the helpless words of an elder, but in fact they already contained a threatening meaning.
Xiao Yifeng did not dare to disobey him anymore, so he could only stand up and retreat.
"Yes, I will come back tomorrow to pay my respects to my father."
As soon as he turned around, the smile in Xiao Yifeng's eyes disappeared and was replaced by a stern face.
Still don't agree?
I really want to do something to make him die quickly!
After Xiao Yifeng left, he found Song Kui.
The emperor had already gone to the side hall.
Song Mei felt someone approaching. She looked up and saw the emperor's kind old face, "My maid, please give your regards to the emperor!"
Song Mei immediately stood up and bowed politely.
The emperor supported her without letting go, "Meier, your face is very red, are you very hot?"
Song Mei is indeed a little hot. She may have played too much today. She just read the Shuangxiu book again...
"My dear, I'm not hot, but today... I'm a little nervous."
She lowered her head shyly, "I have known His Highness the Crown Prince for a long time, and I admire His Highness very much. When I think that His Highness the Crown Prince and I have the same mood, I can't calm down for a long time."
The emperor smiled slightly and said, "Meier, come and play a game of chess with me. Let's talk while we play."
…
On the other side, after Xiao Yifeng found Song Kui, he made his conditions clear, "You help me negotiate with my father to agree to my marriage to Song Mei. When I reach the top, I will make you the national master." "
"I, Xiao Yifeng, swear to God that if I can't do it, I will die violently on the throne."
Song Kui was moved.
That's the national master!
He comes from a poor mountain village, and his ancestors have been poor farmers for three generations.
But he suddenly thought of something. The emperor asked him this afternoon if he had any way to collect yin and replenish yang.
He was prepared and gave the emperor a manuscript he had compiled...
"The prince needs to be careful lately! It's best to keep an eye on Miss Song."
Just then, Song Kui's informant came to report and whispered something in his ear.
Song Kui's eyes widened immediately, "It's bad, it's bad, your highness, return to the palace quickly! Miss Song is in danger!"
Xiao Yifeng still didn't understand what he meant, so he quickly returned to the palace.
But the palace door was locked. He took out the prince's token and said that he had something important to report to the emperor, and the palace personnel opened the door.
Naturally, he also had spies in the palace, and he could tell where the emperor was by asking.
Xiao Yifeng used his Qinggong skills and arrived at the side hall of Qinzheng Hall in less than a cup of tea.
He was about to go in, but eight secret guards came out of the darkness and stood in front of him.
Xiao Yifeng knelt on the ground with a plop, "My son, I have something important to meet with my father!"
No one answered inside.
But I heard Song Mei's voice.
In an instant, Xiao Yifeng's eyes were about to burst!
Lao Deng!
How dare!
"Hey! Your Majesty, the old man is here!"
Suddenly a heavenly sound came from behind. Xiao Yifeng stood up and saw Song Kui walking into the side hall holding a small wooden box.
After a moment, the emperor and Song Kui walked out together.
Xiao Yifeng has never found Song Kui so pleasing to his eyes.
"Why is the prince still here? What do you want to tell me?"
Song Kui winked at the emperor from behind, and Xiao Yifeng immediately raised his hand and said: "The Nanman envoy will arrive in the capital in three days, and I want to discuss this matter with my father."
The emperor waved his hand, "The task of receiving the Nanman envoys will be left to you, go ahead!"
Xiao Yifeng left reluctantly, but at this moment, he could do nothing but believe in Song Kui.
——
And Song Mei was lying on the couch in the side hall at the moment, feeling hot all over her body. No matter how stupid she was, she knew that she had ingested something unclean.
She could hear Xiao Yifeng's voice outside, but she didn't dare to make a sound, because when she did, she would moan unbearably.
She used her last ounce of reason to cover her mouth tightly.
The emperor is gone, she doesn't have to be afraid anymore, she can leave the palace tomorrow!
Thinking of Xiao Yifeng's previous reminders to herself, Song Mei felt regretful.
But she never expected that the old emperor, who had named her a princess, would still have such thoughts for her.
She unbuttoned her clothes to allow the heat from her body to dissipate faster.
Suddenly, a pair of hands touched her shoulders.
Song Mei was agitated and wanted to sit up, but she was so weak that she could only move to the side.
She turned her head and looked to the side and saw Yang Yuyao, "Mother..."
But when she took a closer look, she found something different.
Yang Yuyao's brows relaxed, and her brows became sharper, as if she had been in an unhappy state.
Yang Yuyao had just given birth to her fourth child and was now plump and round, but this woman was much thinner.
Her skin was also excessively pale and didn't look healthy at all.
"Who are you? Why are you here?"
Song Mei's hands were weak and kept shaking when she was tying the straps of her underskirt.
The woman came over and gently helped her tie it.
But at this moment, a knife fell out of her sleeve and fell on Song Mei's stomach.
Song Mei was so frightened that most of the medicine was gone.
"You're so useless!" The woman sneered, picked up the knife, and put it back in her sleeve.
Song Mei retreated to the corner and looked at the woman calmly. She had already seen that she had no ill intentions towards her.
"Who are you?"
The woman glanced at her and said, "It's useless, it's a waste of the good luck God gave you."
At this time, a masked man appeared behind her and whispered a few words to her.
Song Mei immediately smelled the familiar medicinal fragrance, "Is it you?"
At first she thought the mysterious man was the Queen's man.
Later it was discovered that no, the queen was only being used by the emperor. If the mysterious man was really the queen's person, Xiao Yifeng would have known that she was a fake, so how could he have a relationship with her?
So she thought the mysterious man was the emperor's man.
Now I am confused again.
Are both the woman and the mysterious man in front of me a member of the emperor, or is the mysterious man a member of this woman?
Who is she? Why can he freely enter and leave the emperor's Qinzheng Palace? And why does he look so similar to Yang Yuyao?
