"Your Majesty, you——"
"Yes, based on your confessions at the beginning, when I saw Hua Jue's ten fingers that were frostbitten by the snow, I believed that she had been looking for something in the snow for a long time, and this piece of mandarin duck brocade handkerchief, I once found it in I’ve seen it on Qingyi!”
Lan Lin took out the mandarin duck brocade handkerchief, and Lin Xie couldn't help but be surprised. Maybe he had underestimated Lan Lin. Qingyi only took out something that he had used once, but he was so meticulous that he could see everything. Fortunately, this brocade handkerchief was not found on his body, otherwise he would definitely guess the relationship between himself and Qingyi.
Lan Lin reached out and held the mandarin duck brocade handkerchief, stared straight at Lin Xie on the bed, gritted his teeth and said: "But I don't understand, why did you change your confession in the end and admit that they were having a tryst? Is there anything else that could be better than that? Is it more serious that you have been accused of secret communication? What I want to know is what are you hiding from me? You said-"
When Lin Xie heard this, he felt extremely frightened in his heart. Coupled with his current weak body, cold sweat soaked his back. He spoke with difficulty: "Your Majesty... this servant is indeed in love with the palace maid Hua Jue. Please, please Your Majesty makes it happen!"
"Bastard - Lin Xie, you bastard! What on earth do you want to hide from Gu? What kind of thing can make you hesitate to use such an excuse to deceive Gu! Even if you don't say it, Gu will find out sooner or later! "
Lin Xie closed his eyes and trembled slightly, feeling calm inside. He sighed and said, "Your Majesty, how long are you going to live in your dream? Why do you just refuse to believe that this servant really likes Hua Jue?"
When Lan Lin heard these words, it was as if sharp knives were cutting out the flesh on his body. His heart suddenly filled with anger. He made five fists and clenched the mandarin duck brocade handkerchief tightly. He said angrily: "Lin Xie, this is Gu will not investigate the matter any further, but if this happens, Gu will never want to hear it again. Remember, you are Gu’s person. Even if one day you die, you will still be Gu’s ghost. You can never think of leaving Gu to be with anything. People are together, Gu will not allow it! Never allow—"
Lin Xie secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If only by stepping on Lan Lin's pain, he would let the matter go. If this smart king was not trapped by love, how could he let him I'm confused and don't want to go into details.
Lin Xie knew that it was immoral to do so, but in order to save Qingyi and for them to live safely, he could only keep crushing the pain in Lan Lin's heart to save themselves.
Lin Xie said: "Thank you, Your Majesty! Your Majesty... this slave has a low life, how dare you defile the dragon bed? Your Majesty, please ask someone to send the slave back to rest!"
Lan Lin stood up and said coldly: "Since you are already lying on Gu's dragon bed, I won't let you leave so easily. These days, you will stay in Yuqian Palace to recuperate for Gu, and Gu will not let you go anywhere. Go!"
Lan Lin's head felt a headache. Although he promised not to pursue Lin Xie, he would still pay attention to Lin Xie and Hua Jue. At this time, he was not completely sure about the relationship between the two. Lin Xie did not ask in the end. How he will deal with Hua Jue shows that he does not actually have Hua Jue in his heart.
But Lin Xie kept saying that he and Hua Jue really loved each other. What if he really liked that woman? If he killed his most beloved woman, I'm afraid he would hate himself for the rest of his life.
But for Lan Lin, he would rather Lin Xie hate him for the rest of his life than give him up to anyone else. After all, it has been too hard for him to wait for such a person for so many years. Now that he has lost it and found it again, he is not willing to do it anyway. Lose him again.
Tianchen Palace.
Queen Ye Nong was angry. He threw away the tea cup on the table. The tea cup fell to the ground and broke into pieces. The hot tea soup spilled all over the floor. Mu Cang, who was guarding the door, hurried in to check in case there were any assassins in the house.
"Queen, are you okay?"
Ye Nong looked at the debris all over the floor and said angrily: "Your Majesty is so outrageous that he allowed an eunuch to stay in Yugan Palace for so many days, lying on his dragon bed, and he even personally fed the eunuch medicine. , what kind of decency is this? If it is spread, it will make people laugh. I want to ask the concubines in the palace, who can be treated and honored like this? By doing this, is he demonstrating to the palace? He is blatantly Be an enemy to everyone in the world! Damn it——"
The little eunuch who was sent to deliver the message was trembling with fear. Ye Nong waved to him and said, "Go back and keep an eye on those two people! Sooner or later, I will kill that little vixen Lin Xie!"
After listening to Ye Nong's words, Mu Cang felt that the current pursuit of King Lan was too ridiculous. He even thought that Lin Xie was a vixen who brought disaster to the country and the people, so he said: "Empress, do you want me to teach Lin Xie a lesson again?"
Ye Nong's phoenix eyes looked at Mu Cang and said: "Mu Cang, you serve me wholeheartedly and are not afraid of life or death. I admire your courage very much, but it is better not to touch him for the time being. He is now favored by King Zhui Lan. On the palm of your hand, if you act rashly, not only will your life be in danger, but even I will be blamed!"
Mu Cang nodded. At this moment, he saw Eunuch Fu'an walking in. He saw the fragments of the teacup that fell on the ground and screamed: "Hey! Who made our queen angry again! Why don't you clean up these fragments quickly? Clean, what should I do if I hurt my empress?"
At this moment, the palace maid came up, served hot tea again, and began to clean up the mess.
Mu Cang had already retreated to wait outside the door. Ye Nong raised the tea cup in her hand, raised her orchid finger, and lightly scratched it with the tea lid. The aroma of tea immediately hit her face. She asked Fu An in a cold voice: "Xiao Anzi, Where did you go when you died early in the morning? I heard them say that you left the palace?"
Fu'an narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly, stepped forward and said flatteringly: "Empress, there is a person who wants to see you, and I have the courage to bring him into the palace!"
After whispering a few words in her ear, Ye Nong was startled, put down the tea cup in her hand, and then said: "Xuan——"
"Yes - empress!"
After a while, Mu Cang, who was standing outside the door, saw a man in a black cloak being brought in. He wanted to take a closer look at the man's appearance. Who exactly was he? Unfortunately, in addition to wearing a big black cloak and hat, that man also had a black scarf covering his face.
The man walked in, and the moment the door was closed, Mu Cang saw the man's face through the crack in the door that was about to close. When he pulled off his mask, he actually looked a bit like Lin Xie.
"I'll miss seeing you, the Queen!"
When Ye Nong saw Chang Si, his pupils were filled with shock, because he looked somewhat similar to Lin Xie.
She said: "Are you Changsi? Your appearance is somewhat similar to that of Lin Xie!"
Changsi replied: "Back to the Queen, rather than saying that I look similar to Lin Xie, it would be better to say that he looks very similar to my dead brother Changting!"
"Your dead brother Changting——"
"Yes, your Majesty, my brother is your majesty's personal guard. That happened when your majesty was young. At that time, the empress had not yet entered the Zhuilan Palace, so of course you wouldn't know. My brother Changting is your majesty's most trusted person. , and the person he likes the most, the relationship between the two of them is the same as the relationship between him and Eunuch Lin now."
Queen Ye Nong seemed to have eaten something shocking. She held the chair with her right hand tremblingly, and the phoenix hairpin on her forehead was swaying slightly. She leaned forward slightly and asked: "So Lin Xie now only It's just the shadow of your brother Changting. No wonder His Majesty is so crazy about a eunuch. It turns out that the person he loved when he was young is back! Hehehe! Hehehe! It seems that I have been deceived by Your Majesty for so many years. I didn’t guess His Majesty’s heart! Chang Si, what is your purpose in coming to serve me?”
Changsi didn't shy away: "Since His Majesty's oath to my brother is just a passing thought, and his feelings can be transferred to others, why can't they be transferred to me? Queen, you just need to make good use of my heart." As a chess piece, Lin Xie will no longer have any use! And all I want is to have a higher position than my brother in the future! A position that will make me think and feel proud!"
Ye Nong smiled slightly, and then said: "You brothers are really interesting! Since you are willing to suffer for me and get close to the Holy Master, then I will become yours and let you become His Majesty's personal guard. Please keep an eye on His Majesty and His Majesty. Lin Xie, make good use of your face and your methods to make this Royal Palace turbulent and cause more trouble!"
Ye Nong thought to herself that Chang Si's surrender gave her a good opportunity to stir up trouble. She didn't care whether Chang Si's purpose was to get a high and powerful position, to avenge his brother, or to replace him and become Lin Xie is next.
Anyway, she was ready to eliminate the people sitting on the dragon throne, and these people were just pawns to create chaos for her and put Lan Lin in danger.
Changsi nodded, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Queen, for your support!"
What kind of person is Chang Si? From the time he could remember, he was a servant of the elder's family, and later he became the young master Chang Ting's sparring partner. He had always envied the young master Chang Ting, who was three years older than him, and the young master Chang Ting treated him well, treating him like his own brother.
Before that, the relationship between the two brothers was real. They were not real brothers, but they were better than real brothers.
But one day, Changsi accidentally learned that he was also the son of the elder. It turned out that the elder got drunk and did something wrong to the maid who was serving his wife. From then on, the maid had a child.
Both the elder and his wife knew that Chang Si was the eldest son, but they had no intention of recognizing him. The wife was even more wary of them and her son, and even made things difficult for them at every turn.
Later, Chang Si deliberately spread the word, but even though the elder finally recognized his son under the pressure of the sect leader, deep down in his heart he would always look down on him, the bastard born of a maid.
After all, his eldest son Changting is really too good. He was trained to be good at literature, martial arts, and good-looking. He will definitely be able to honor his ancestors in the future.
Sure enough, under the elder's painstaking cultivation, Changting had a chance to enter the palace.
Changting's uncle Changhe was the commander of the guards in the palace. One day, the old king suddenly proposed that he wanted to leave a loyal guard for his son. It would be best to cultivate the relationship between the two from an early age and let this guard become a little boy. The shadow of the prince helps the little prince through various crises, and will be able to die for the little prince in dangerous moments in the future.
