The First Empress - Chapter 315
Chapter 315 I, Look At You
Huiqi nodded and said, “I will come and see you again tonight. Wear your clothes. You are also tired today.” Linglong nodded. Seeing Huiqi walk out, Huiqi suddenly looked at the wooden bucket and was a little puzzled. “This–” There were a series of footprints on the ground. Linglong felt bad, and before she could react, Qin’er had already walked in with her feet wet and said, “Empress, beauty Shao is coming from outside.” When she saw Huiqi, she immediately lowered her eyebrows. Linglong looked at Qin’er shivering coldly and hurriedly said, “Go change your shoes. What’s wrong? They’re so wet.” Qin’er hurriedly nodded and went into the back hall.
“This girl is getting more and more incapable of handling things. It’s better to replace her. She can’t even take care of herself. How can we talk about taking care of the Empress?” Linglong didn’t expect Huiqi to talk to her like this. The space between her eyebrows twitched slightly. Huiqi was a smart person. He knew what kind of method he should choose to probe and test. Linglong quickly smiled and said, “According to the Emperor’s wishes, but this girl has been with her concubines for a long time. She is more at ease in terms of food, clothing, housing, and transportation.”
Huiqi secretly nodded and said, “Let’s stay here for now. We’ll talk about it later.”
Linglong’s heart finally fell to the ground. Huiqi said, “I will go first, and I will come back at night.” Linglong nodded and saw the pair of boots behind the screen. She hurriedly blocked them. Huiqi smiled and walked away. At this time, Qin’er also walked over from behind. The few of them looked at each other for a while, and they were all scared. Qin’er’s face was as pale as earth. “Your Highness, did you fool me?”
Xie Yunxiao walked out and passed through the window. Li Sheng hurriedly walked in to help clean the floor.
At this time, I didn’t expect Huiqi to come back. Liu Lang came back today. Linglong was unhappy, but she still forced a smile to welcome him. “What did the Emperor leave behind?” Linglong asked. Huiqi smiled and said, “I forgot. I forgot to take my Southern Pearl just now.” Linglong calmly let Huiqi look at every corner of the room and said, “Your concubine, please help the emperor search.” A few maids were busy in the hall. Linglong also ran around to help look for Nan Zhu. Huiqi saw the water stains on Linglong’s hair and said, “Go to Lil ‘Long’s and roast it properly. It won’t be good if you don’t have a cold or typhoid.” Linglong nodded obediently to the Earth Dragon. After a while, Eunuch Lu picked up the South Pearl from a corner and handed it over as if he had obtained a precious treasure. He didn’t expect Huiqi to throw the South Pearl into the Earth Dragon without looking. “This is agarwood, Your Majesty.”
“I didn’t have to waste any effort. Let alone the Agarwood, I shouldn’t have gone back and harmed you to help me search for it. If you get sick, wouldn’t I be able to evade the blame?” After all, this sentence made Linglong feel relieved. After all, no matter what, Huiqi still cared about her. Compared to those women who always sat around complaining about the Xuanzong Sect, it was much better. Linglong secretly gritted her teeth and reminded herself that this was just a form of consolation.
“It’s fine. I’m not a rush. How could I get sick so easily?” Linglong looked at Huiqi. Her thick eyelashes cast two beautiful shadows under her eyes. Huiqi sighed, “This is blaming me. It’s my fault. I’ll apologize to you.” As she spoke, she held Linglong’s hand and smiled silently. “The Emperor is joking again. Hurry up and go. There are still some unanswered questions.” After being reminded by Linglong, Huiqi’s words awakened the dreamer and he patted his head, “Look at my memory. I should be leaving now.”
Linglong escorted Huiqi away.
“Eunuch Lu, do you think I’m suspicious?”
“Your Majesty cannot say that you are suspicious. Actually, even this old servant sometimes feels a murderous aura behind me.” Eunuch Lu’s aged appearance was filled with confidence and conceit that he had experienced many hardships. He leaned closer to Huiqi and said something. Huiqi’s expression was not good, but he still nodded.
The two of them went.
After a while, Qin’er walked in. “Your Highness, Eunuch Lu said something in the emperor’s ear. I think the Emperor has already begun to pay attention to our Yunluan Palace, Your Highness must be careful, Not every time such a thing could be concealed, “Hearing Qin’er’s painstaking consolation, Linglong naturally knew. Looking at Qin’er’s anxiety, she hurriedly pulled Qin’er over and said,” Thank you so much just now. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be dangerous today? ” He took Qin’er to the Earth Dragon and said, “Roast the fire properly. This palace will not do such a reckless thing in the future.” Qin’er nodded.
Time passed quickly in her spare time. After a while, she finished her lunch. Linglong looked at the sky and saw that there were dense clouds outside. Seeing that snow particles were falling from the sky, Linglong said, “Follow me to see Lan Sou Yu.”
Qin’er and Li Sheng were both puzzled, “Your Highness, don’t look down on indecent assault. It would be better to let Lan Sou Yu die on her own.”
“Lan Sou Yu won’t die on her own. Don’t forget how many people Lan Sou Yu killed by herself. The previous Li Chong Yuan, He Shu Fei, the Empress and Mu De Fei behind her, who wouldn’t be pushed into the brazier by Lan Sou Yu indirectly? After so many years, Lan Sou Yu doesn’t dare to underestimate them. “The Lan Sou Yu you see in your eyes is not the real Lan Sou Yu. What I see in my eyes is the real Lan Sou Yu.”
Qin’er and Li Sheng were also puzzled. Why did Lan Sou Yu always survive until now? At first, she thought that Lan Sou Yu was just lucky. Gradually, she realized that Lan Sou Yu wasn’t just relying on her luck to take risks. Apart from Lan Zhenglin, who was wealthy and powerful, being Lan Sou Yu’s strong backing, Lan Sou Yu also had her own agility and wit.
Linglong’s beautiful facial features were slightly indifferent to the mirror’s illumination. She smiled and said, “Lan Shuyu is a smart person, but she is not smart enough. If she is really smart enough, then she would not act like this.”
Qin’er and Li Sheng looked at each other and shook their heads.
After the two of them finished dressing up Linglong, Linglong gently put on her clothes. Only then did she reach the outside. Qin’er held a green umbrella from Meng Zongzhu and walked outside with Linglong. After a while, she arrived outside Changle Palace.
Mei Ying was sparse, the ice was melting away, and the east wind was changing years. Changle Palace looked like it had declined. Although it was as brilliant as usual, Linglong could tell that there was a lack of vitality in this brilliance. The orchid garden was not empty, and the pedestrians were getting old. It was hard to start over! Linglong couldn’t help but smile bitterly when she remembered that she and Lan Shuyu had entered the palace at the same time and advanced at the same time.
This was a meticulous society. It was originally like this, so what else could it do?
Linglong was about to enter, Suddenly, the door of Changle Palace opened. A girl walked out. He raised a basin of water and was about to pour it over, Evidently, this girl had already been threatened or instigated by Lan Sou Yu. Ling Long was not afraid. This basin of water was actually the life of this girl. As long as this basin of water was poured over Ling Long from the cold winter and twelve months, she would naturally die without a burial ground. Their gentleman’s agreement must have been agreed.
Linglong looked at the condescending maidservant. The maidservant with a long face hurriedly threw away the basin and knelt beside Linglong’s feet. “This servant deserves to die, this servant deserves to die, this servant offends the Empress Feng Yi, this servant …” Linglong said, “Raise your head.”
The maidservant raised her head. Linglong looked at the face and felt that she could not see wrongly. The maidservant was obviously helpless. Although she did not know why, Linglong knew that the maidservant’s heart was not bad. He said, “You are a sensible person. No matter what Lan Sou Yu makes difficult for you, I will save your life today. You should know how to repay me in the future.”
This maidservant tears exchanged, “Your Highness is like a corpse. Your Highness, this servant kowtowed to Your Highness here.”
“No need, let’s go in.” Linglong turned around and Qin’er hurriedly followed.
Lan Sou Yu sat inside the inner hall. Actually, Lan Sou Yu had also guessed what was going on outside. How could such a maid have the guts to pour water on the Empress? Hearing Mo Yin enter, Lan Sou Yu pretended to be surprised and turned around. Sure enough, Ling Long’s entire body was spotless.
“Your Highness, this concubine greets Your Highness the Empress.” Lan Sou Yu hurriedly came over to salute. After saluting, she said, “Why did Your Highness think of coming to this concubine?”
Linglong smiled and said, “I just came to see you, Ninth Concubine Lan.”
Lan Shuyu blushed slightly, but she quickly regained her composure. While serving tea, she smiled and said, “It’s good that Your Highness can come over and have a taste of this concubine. Your Highness sometimes dreams of her at night. It’s been years since Your Highness has been here.” Linglong remembered that she was the one who poisoned her last time here. Fortunately, Chen Chongyi had saved her, so she couldn’t help but say with a blank expression, “It’s just that the Empress has a dream every day. Didn’t I come here today?”
“Your Highness has come to the Three Treasures Hall without hesitation. It seems that something has happened. Since Your Highness is prepared to come, please tell me what you have to say.” Lan Sou Yu said. Ling Long held onto the teacup and said, “Nothing special. I just want to tell Your Highness that it’s not good to dream too much at night. Haven’t Your Highness ever heard of a long night’s dream?” After Linglong finished speaking, she gently scratched the tea cup with her crystal armor and said, “Your Highness is also a smart person. I have nothing to say here, but I just want to have a chat with Your Highness.”
“That’s right–” Lan Sou Yu’s perfect face was always tense. “Your Highness might be right, but a long night’s sleep is full of suspicions.” Linglong didn’t care if Lan Shuyu had any intentions or not. She smiled and said, “Lan Jiucong, you don’t have to worry so much. This palace wants to tell Lan Jiucong about something. Your life force is running out.”
Lan Shuyu reached out and caressed her sharp chin. “It’s not the last day yet. No one knows if she’s out of breath. There’s no need to rush to analyze, is there, Your Highness?” Lan Sou Yu was not afraid at all. Ling Long knew the weight in Lan Sou Yu’s hand. It was just a gold medal for avoiding death. A thin crimson color appeared on her fair skin. Ling Long said, “If I want to help you, I just don’t know if you need it.”
