The foolish girl returns, and the regent becomes a wife-loving madman

Chapter 463 A strange combination of circumstances

At this time in the imperial palace, Xie Ziling was leaning against the door of a side hall, his breathing becoming more and more rapid.

He pulled hard at the collar, and his clothes were already wide open.

Xie Ziling's dark eyes had already turned red, and every movement required extreme forbearance on his part.

He had already poured countless amounts of cold water on himself, but it still couldn't relieve the heat in his body.

Ling Chen stood outside the palace gate, pacing back and forth, stopping from time to time to look at the door of the main hall.

"Your Majesty, are you okay? The Queen will be back in the palace soon, please be patient."

Xie Ziling said in a hoarse voice: "Has the person been arrested?"

"He has been locked up in the palace next door, and the emperor is interrogating him there." Ling Chen replied hurriedly, but there was no sound in the side hall.

Xie Ziling leaned against the bathtub, his clothes were soaked and he had already taken off most of them, but the feeling of heat was getting stronger and stronger.

He had only one thought in his mind at this moment, which was to kill that person, kill her...

When Xie Lingxiao arrived, Ling Chen took a few steps forward and asked anxiously, "Your Majesty, has the Queen returned to the palace?"

"Where is Ziling?" Xie Lingxiao asked coldly.

Ling Chen said: "The prince is in the palace, no one is allowed to enter, and there has been no sound in the palace for a long time."

Xie Lingxiao pursed his lips, his eyes fell on the palace door, his dark brows tightly furrowed.

He didn't expect that the guards in such a large palace were so lax that they didn't even notice the extra person in the palace.

Originally their target was him, but Xie Ziling happened to stay in the imperial study all day, so all this fell on him.

Thinking of this, Xie Lingxiao stepped forward and knocked on the palace door: "Zi Ling, are you okay?"

As his voice rang out, the surroundings suddenly became silent. The tightly closed door did not move at all, and there was no response from Xie Ziling.

Xie Lingxiao took a few steps back and said, "Knock the door open."

Ling Chen waved to the people around him, and the guards guarding outside the palace quickly stepped forward and slammed the palace door.

After a while, the palace door was finally pushed open, and Xie Lingxiao stepped in first. Looking at the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but tremble at his forehead.

Xie Ziling was leaning against the bathtub with his clothes half-undressed, his exposed skin was slightly pink. He sat there with his eyes slightly closed, his hands constantly tearing off the robe that was sticking to his body.

All around him, there were countless bathtubs of varying sizes, lying crookedly on the floor.

Xie Lingxiao came in front of Xie Ziling, reached out and grabbed his hand, and tried to pull him up with a little force.

Before he could pull the man up, Xie Ziling leaned over and fell into his arms.

Xie Lingxiao wanted to step back but Xie Ziling held him tightly and refused to let go. In desperation, Xie Lingxiao raised his hand and slapped Xie Ziling's neck, and he fell to the ground.

Ling Chen stood aside, looking at Xie Ziling lying on the ground, the corners of his mouth twitching constantly.

Just by looking at Xie Lingxiao's expression, Ling Chen knew that Xie Ziling would be in great trouble after he woke up.

Shen Jingxuan and Ling Feng finally hurried back to the palace. As soon as they arrived outside the side hall, they met Xie Lingxiao.

Looking at his gloomy face, Ling Feng couldn't help but feel a tightness in his heart.

He walked up quickly and said, "Your Majesty, are you...are you okay?"

Before leaving the palace, he only heard Ling Chen say that something happened in the imperial study and asked him to go find the queen as soon as possible.

He left without looking back.

He thought that Ling Chen asked him to find the Queen because something must have happened to the Emperor. He was a little surprised to see Xie Lingxiao at this time.

Shen Jingxuan came in front of Xie Lingxiao, raised her head and touched his forehead. Seeing that his face was a little gloomy, there was nothing unusual about it. She couldn't help feeling a little confused.

Xie Lingxiao glared at Ling Feng. Seeing him staring at him without blinking, the anger in his heart grew little by little.

The more she looked at him, the more she disliked him. She raised her foot and kicked him: "Something wrong? I think you are just hoping that something will happen to me."

"Your Majesty..." Ling Feng looked aggrieved.

Looking at Xie Lingxiao at this moment, he realized belatedly that this matter had nothing to do with him, but it was too late.

"Get away from me. Your salary for this month will be confiscated." Xie Lingxiao said coldly.

Ling Feng had countless grievances in his heart, but no one to talk to, so he could only stand there with his head down, motionless.

Shen Jingxuan held Xie Lingxiao's hand and said in a gentle voice, "Why are you so angry? What happened?"

Xie Lingxiao's eyebrows were tightly knitted together, and when he thought of Xie Ziling's actions just now, his anger grew even more.

If everything he had to endure wasn't because of him, he wouldn't even want to care about him at this moment.

Looking at Shen Jingxuan in front of him, Xie Lingxiao said slowly: "Zi Ling's food was tampered with, and now he has been knocked unconscious by me, and he is in the palace."

Shen Jingxuan glanced at him and walked towards the hall. Xie Lingxiao hurriedly stopped her.

He glared at Ling Feng and said angrily, "Why don't you get in and help Zi Ling put on his robe?"

After hearing what Xie Lingxiao said, Ling Feng quickly disappeared in front of him.

He was afraid that if he was a little late, his salary for next month would also be confiscated.

Now that he has a family, he still needs the salary to support his family, and it must not be confiscated.

Shen Jingxuan looked at Xie Lingxiao and shook her head secretly: "Why are you so angry?"

She thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure out why Xie Lingxiao was so furious because the food Xie Ziling ate was tampered with.

When Ling Chen walked out of the palace gate, he heard Shen Jingxuan's words, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on Xie Lingxiao.

Seeing him turn around and look at him, Ling Chen suddenly lowered his head: "Your Majesty, the robe is already on."

Xie Lingxiao didn't even look at him and pulled Shen Jingxuan into the hall.

Ling Chen looked at their backs and sighed slightly, then hurriedly followed them.

Xie Ziling's Chinese medicine is Chinese medicine, so why did it anger the emperor?

He could have hugged anyone else, but he had to hug the emperor and refused to let go, and he happened to be seen by him.

Now the emperor has remembered him as well.

When Shen Jingxuan and Xie Lingxiao arrived in front of the bed, Xie Ziling was lying on the bed motionless.

Seeing his flushed face, Shen Jingxuan suddenly looked at Xie Lingxiao, only to see that he lowered his head and didn't look at her.

Shen Jingxuan walked forward slowly, raised her hand and placed it on Xie Ziling's wrist, then withdrew her hand after a moment.

How long has it been calm? Is someone unable to hold back again?

Shen Jingxuan sighed slightly and said, "Has he been caught?"

"Yeah." Xie Lingxiao responded.

Shen Jingxuan took out the antidote pill and handed it to Ling Feng: "Give it to him first, I'll go get the antidote later."

With what he had just experienced, Ling Feng quickly took the pill and stuffed it into Xie Ziling's mouth.

Shen Jingxuan stood up and walked out.

The good mood I was in when leaving the palace today was now gone.

Walking out of the palace gate and looking at the towering palace, Shen Jingxuan's brows were still furrowed.

Now she is the only female master in the palace, and these bad things will still happen once in a while.

Even if it wasn't something like this, there were other things going on.

It was hard for her to imagine that Lu Wenxi, the Queen Mother...

With so many people eager to enter the palace and gain a noble status, how do they survive in the deep palace?

How they lived their whole lives within these high walls.

If she hadn't been forced to do so, if it weren't for Xie Lingxiao's status, she wouldn't want to live in the palace for a single day.

When Xie Lingxiao saw Shen Jingxuan walking in front with her head down, his already frowned brows furrowed even tighter.

She knew that Shen Jingxuan didn't like this kind of life, and he didn't like it either.

But being in his position, he also had many things that were beyond his control.

The two of them had just walked into the bedroom when Ling Chen hurried over again. Looking at their expressions, he didn't know how to start the conversation.
