I don't know yet, there should be no cure for the poison of the Heliconia vine. "
There was no pity on Xian Yu's face, and he only said: "If you stop taking the decoction, the poison of the scorpion vine will slowly dissipate, but it's too late now, judging by the emperor's appearance, all internal organs should be injured, now stop the medicine , still doomed to die.”
"Indeed." Li Qingning continued: "However, according to the two sects, there is indeed no record of the scorpion vine in the ancient books."
Xian Yu moved slightly, then moved back an inch.
The light in Li Qing's eyes changed suddenly, and he couldn't help but bend his knees, resisting not to drag him down, and said in a low voice: "It seems that Bai Tu is really involved with the national teacher, otherwise there is no record in the ancient books, why did they Know so clearly."
Xian Yu frowned, the national teacher undoubtedly knew Bai Tu, but it was a pity that Bai Tu didn't remember the past.
She felt annoyed and felt uncomfortable sitting, so she couldn't help moving again.
"Don't move." Li Qing said coldly.
Xian Yu looked down at her, only then realized that he had set fire to Li Qingning's heart.
She smiled, and said casually: "Has Your Highness figured out how to get the soil from Tianshitai?"
Li Qingning's face was frosty, "I have ordered someone to get it, so don't worry."
"Then can I go out?" Xian Yu seemed to add fuel to the fire.
Li Qingning frowned, "Is the thing washed? If not, why are you leaving in such a hurry?"
Chapter 104

The room suddenly fell silent.
Xian Yu didn't know what to say for a while, she saw that Li Qingning's expression was calm, as if there was no ripple in her heart when she spoke.
She subconsciously wanted to run, but just as she turned sideways, the remaining gauze that tied her hands was untied immediately.
Li Qingning's slender fingers scratched the remnant yarn, and the aura attached to it was immediately withdrawn.
As soon as the spiritual energy disappeared, the gauze wrapped around her wrist loosened a little and slid down lightly.
Xian Yu hurriedly said: "Your Highness, why are you so unreasonable? It's daytime now, where are His Highness's rules?"
Li Qingning stood up and said coldly, "When will you listen to my reasoning?"
The words were true, Xian Yu choked up a bit.
Li Qingning said again: "If I am the only one who obeys the rules and you don't, then what's the use of following the rules."
Xian Yu understood that the pits she had dug for Li Qingning were now placed under her feet one by one, and Li Qingning wanted to push her into the pits.
Although now Li Qingning is as she wants, she feels comfortable inside and out, but if she is asked to wash the mattress, it will kill her.
She lay down on the side, staring at the person beside her without blinking, trying to see a hint of joking in Li Qingning's eyes.
But no, Li Qing condensed his face with a serious look.
Xian Yu didn't start, looked at the bedpost and said, "But I'm not outside the palace, who will get the soil for Bai Tu?"
Li Qingning looked indifferent, "Someone will bring it to him."
"But Bai Tu doesn't recognize anyone else anymore, he is extremely defensive, and he definitely won't sniff the soil." Xian Yu grabbed Bai Tu and wouldn't let him go.
"Of course he will send someone he knows well." Li Qingning's voice was flat.
"But the person he knows best is me." Xian Yu still didn't want to compromise.
Li Qingning saw that she turned her head away, her eyes were still erratic, like a magpie trembling, or a magpie with red hair.
She pursed her lips slightly and said, "He knows the heart."
Xian Yu was stunned for a moment, thinking that she really deserved to be Li Qingning, and there were plenty of ways to prevaricate her.
"But if Bai Tu has something to tell me." Xian Yu said again.
Li Qingning raised her chin and glanced at the veil on the bed, only to see that a piece was missing, and the missing half was lying on the bed now.
She raised her hand to pinch the remnant yarn, threw it on the ground with a cold face, and said: "Then let Fangxin bring it in, what's so difficult about it."
"Li Qingning, you are really lawless." Xian Yu turned her head and glared at the person who stood up slightly.
Li Qingning's face was still as cold as water, "I thought so."
She paused and stared at Xian Yu for a while, as if she was waiting for Xian Yu to understand.
But Xian Yu really didn't understand, she thought to herself, what's the point of leaving half of what you said.She raised her eyebrows and said with a sneer, "Li Qingning, are you playing charades?"
Only then did Li Qingning say: "I thought you were going to ask me again if I have a heart."
Xianyu's ears warmed up. She had indeed said this many times, whether it was in the previous life or in this life, she had said it more than once.
When he said this at first, he really hated it very much, and complained extremely that Li Qingning didn't respond to her, and he never revealed half of what was in his heart to her.
But later, she seemed to get used to Li Qingning's careless appearance, and when she said this again, she didn't hate her so deeply, but seemed to be provocative. She just wanted to hear how Li Qingning would answer.
Later, even if Li Qingning was seduced by her and fell into the tide of emotion, she still wanted to lean into Li Qingning's ear and say something.
She wanted to annoy Li Qingning, so if she was so annoyed, she might not bother to cover it up, so she would treat her sincerely.
Now when I think about what I did in my previous life, it's really contrived, as if I'm deliberately putting on a show.
Maybe in the previous life, in Li Qingning's eyes, she looked like a fool.
Now that Li Qingning said this, Xian Yu couldn't help but feel a little awkward.
Think about it carefully, if the person with the cold face in the previous life was me, and there was a person beside me who kept asking for it, and I clearly fulfilled her wish, then that person would still ask me if I have the heart at that time...
Xian Yu just felt her face was getting hot. She seemed to only care about herself in her previous life, but she never asked Li Qingning if she wanted to.
Li Qing said calmly: "So, do you think I have a heart now?"
Xian Yu turned his head and glanced at the cold-faced beauty who was as bright as the bright moon, and then withdrew his eyes after one glance, and buried his face in the brocade quilt as soon as he lowered his head.
She took a deep breath slowly and said, "Yes."
"What's the matter?" Li Qingning asked as if she didn't hear clearly.
Xian Yu raised his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Have a heart."
Li Qingning smiled, very lightly, and the smile faded in an instant, "I've thought about it for a long time, and what the national teacher wants to find is nothing but white paint."
The enthusiasm that finally appeared on Xian Yu's face dissipated immediately, "That's why you want to keep me in the palace?"
"If I keep you by Baitu's side, I'm afraid the national teacher will accidentally hurt you." Li Qingning said calmly.
Xian Yu chuckled, "I also said that you love me."
"If I don't feel sorry for you, how can I be afraid that the national teacher will accidentally hurt you." Li Qingning said with a frown.
Xian Yu's face was full of sarcasm, but what she wanted to mock was not Li Qingning, but the national teacher.She said: "But the national teacher will not let me go, even if he has a chance to take Bai Tu's life, he will definitely not let me go."
She paused, and then said: "The national teacher is so afraid of the Danyin scroll, now he knows that I have repaired the Danyin scroll, how can he let me go so easily."
Li Qingning's face was as cold as frost and snow.
Xian Yu said casually: "Your Highness doesn't need to protect me, I've been involved from the very beginning."
Li Qingning didn't speak, but her eyes turned cold again, as if she had just crawled out of the cold sky.
"It's Bai Tu who reversed the destiny, and that's why I have everything in this life." Xian Yu slowed down his speech, as if he wanted to put every word into Li Qingning's heart, "Your Highness, I can't retreat."
Li Qingning still didn't speak, she lowered her eyes, as if she was thinking about something.
Xian Yu sat up, looked down at her, and said, "I can't let something happen to Bai Tu."
The man who had been silent for a long time moved his lips and said, "I won't let anything happen to him."
"Then you have to let me out." Xian Yu raised her eyebrows slightly.
Li Qingning stopped talking again, and after a long time, she raised her eyes to look at Chao Yu, her eyes were as sharp as a knife, as if she wanted to swallow the life in her eyes alive.
For a moment, Xian Yu felt that Li Qingning would let her die on this bed.
Li Qingning restrained the coldness in her eyes, moved her lips, and said, "Just take him in immediately."
Xian Yu closed her eyes, although she knew that Li Qingning was so stubborn, she didn't expect that this man would still refuse to let her go in the end.
She knew that the national teacher would always find her, and it would be best for her to be with Bai Tu, so that Li Qingning would not be implicated.
Li Qingning saw the pupils under her eyelids move, she was clearly thinking about something, she turned around and said: "I thought about it, the palace is better than the outside."
The voice paused, and she said again: "The national teacher's soul is damaged now, and he cannot shake the dragon veins and the national destiny. If His Majesty leaves at this time, the new emperor will soon ascend the throne, and the purple energy will be passed on. The dragon veins will slowly recover, and the country The teacher will undoubtedly waste all his previous efforts.”
"At this time, he absolutely dare not do anything in the palace, if he does." Li Qingning said unhurriedly.
"Then what will happen to His Highness?" Xian Yu asked.
Li Qingning slowly leaned towards Chao Yu, her red lips almost touching the other's ear.
Xian Yu turned her head to the side, only to feel that the voice that fell into her ears was extremely clear.
Li Qingning said: "The palace has thousands of ways to send the emperor to see the King of Hades early, so that he can get rid of the pain and be no longer trapped by drug addiction."
Xian Yu's pupils shrank.
From Li Qingning's face, she could not see the slightest bit of reluctance, she was determined and ruthless, indeed Li Qingning could do it.
It's just that Li Qingning had never said such a thing in front of her in her previous life, but kept it from her and secretly calculated everything.
Now she could hear it very clearly, and her heart couldn't help but tighten.
Maybe Li Qingning's intentions were only for her.
She propped her hands on the bed, her waist slumped slightly, and she pressed her bloodless lips on Li Qingning's chin.
As soon as this move was made, the stupefied person became Li Qingning.
No matter how Li Qingning figured it out, how could Xian Yu come over all of a sudden.
Xian Yu looked at her without blinking, and the lips imprinted on the chin slowly moved upwards.
Very slow, somehow, seems to be slower than dripping water through a stone.
Xian Yu bit Li Qingning's lips, only once, slowly straightened up, and made another impression on Li Qingning's brow.
Li Qing was pressed down coldly, and the man in red was lying on her body, sticking very tightly, and buried his head on her shoulder, motionless.
She raised her hand to stroke Xian Yu's black hair, not knowing what was wrong with him.
Xian Yu clung to Li Qingning so tightly that she could even feel the beating of Li Qingning's heart clearly.
She said in her heart, she does have a heart, only for her, and her heart beats quite fast.
After a long silence, Xian Yu said: "If Your Highness is willing, then bring Bai Tu in."
Tianshi Taichung.
Before the ceremony was over, the soul banner was flying, and the black runes on it were faintly visible.
The national teacher sat cross-legged on the ground, muttering something, while throwing gold and silver paper ingots into the fire.
Tongues of fire surged up, turning the paper into ashes in an instant.
The national teacher was dressed in a white robe but not even a speck of ashes touched him, as if even the wind had bypassed him.
He turned his back to the crowd and covered his face with a mask, so no one could see his expression.
After he finished reading, he threw out a copper coin suddenly, and the copper coin slammed on King Ruiheng's coffin with a clang.
The copper coin spun around and then stopped. To everyone's surprise, the copper coin was still standing, standing firmly on the coffin.
Seeing this, the kid kneeling beside him quickly stood up, held the golden bell in his hand, and handed it to the national teacher.
The national teacher picked up the golden bell and moved his wrist slightly.
The golden bell rang, but the sound was not very crisp, nor could it be called pleasant.
The voice was as deep and deep as an ancient bell, which made everyone's ears buzzing, and they couldn't help feeling dizzy.
After the golden bell rang three times, the copper coins standing on the coffin finally fell down.
"Prince Ruiheng's soul is at peace." The national teacher paused, and said again: "Lift up the coffin."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people ran up to the stage immediately.
Just as those people were fastening the ropes on the coffin, a eunuch came in a hurry.
All the people present looked at the person who came, but they saw that the eunuch seemed to come alone, without a chariot or sedan chair behind him.
Who doesn't recognize the people around the emperor, and who dare not recognize them.
The national teacher also looked at the man, but he didn't speak. His eyes behind the mask were gloomy, and the bloodshot eyes were still bloodshot, as if he was extremely tired.
The eunuch walked up to the altar, and waved the whisk in his hand, "Master, the national teacher, is it time to perform a sacrifice now?"
The national teacher nodded and said, "Exactly."
The eunuch stood upright, and the voice at the exit was slightly sharp, not too loud, just enough for the people in the audience to hear.
He said: "Your Majesty is extremely sad, and King Dao Ruiheng hasn't fallen asleep for a long time, so I sent a servant over to take a handful of soil from the Tianshitai and put it in King Ruiheng's coffin, so that King Ruiheng will remember the time to return to the capital. road."
The people under the stage really heard it, and there was a burst of booing, and they couldn't help but sigh, His Majesty really loves King Rui Heng, and King Rui Heng will be unable to get up after leaving.
The national teacher's expression changed slightly, but fortunately his face was covered with a mask, so no one could see his expression.
"Your Majesty's affection is sincere. Since it is His Majesty's intention, I will let the minister take this piece of soil." The national teacher raised his arm as he spoke, as if he wanted to use his spiritual power to fetch the soil.
"National teacher wait a minute." The eunuch said suddenly.
He said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty ordered this servant to take it and release it himself, so that he can see King Ruiheng for him."
As if to let everyone in the audience hear him, when he said this, he deliberately raised his voice.
The people under the altar whispered to each other, and suddenly began to chatter.
Someone said: "Since King Ruiheng's soul is at peace, it should be no problem to put some soil."
"King Ruiheng died in such a precipitous place, so far away from the capital, did he really forget how to get back?" Another humane questioned.
"Since this is the case, I wonder if the national teacher can call King Ruiheng into His Majesty's dream, and His Majesty's wish will be fulfilled."
The national teacher stood on the stage and slowly closed his eyes. He pursed his lips slightly and said lightly: "The sacrificial ceremony has been completed and cannot be reversed."
"Your Majesty knows that if it is a national teacher, then it will be fine." The eunuch looked at the national teacher.
The national teacher slowly lowered his raised arm, and after a long silence, he said, "Please."
The eunuch saluted, turned around and walked off the stage, under the watchful eyes of everyone, dug up the soil under a tree in the distance.
He squatted by the tree, shaking some soil into his sleeve pocket with his heart beating like thunder, and then he put the whisk under his shoulders, picked up some soil and walked towards the altar.
"Open the coffin." When he walked to the edge of the coffin, he raised his voice and said.
The person who carried the coffin suddenly became the person who opened the coffin. Several people looked at each other in dismay. One of them took a deep breath and lifted the lid of the coffin with all his might.
The eunuch holding a fistful of soil stood beside him, carefully glanced into the coffin, his eyes dodged, and he shook the soil in his hand into the coffin holding his breath.
After closing her hands, she stood up straight and exhaled slowly, patted her palms and said, "It's all right."
Hearing this, the person who lifted the coffin lid just now slowly closed it again.
The eunuch turned to look at the national teacher, and said, "The national teacher is bothering you."
The national teacher's eyes flickered for a moment, and there was a trace of undetectable panic in his eyes.
It's just that his expression quickly returned to normal, and he saluted slowly, but he didn't say a word.
The eunuch walked out of the Tianshitai slowly, and he relaxed his tense shoulders and neck after he got out of the Tianshitai door. He bowed and climbed onto the carriage.
After raising the curtain, the eunuch put the mud in the sleeve pocket into the brocade silk bag bit by bit.
He was not the only one sitting in the car, but also a girl.
Fang Xin sat on the carriage, looked sideways at the eunuch tightening the silk bag, "My lord, is this the soil from Tianshitai?"
The eunuch nodded slightly, and handed out the silk bag with both hands, "This is what His Highness wants."
Fang Xin quickly put away the brocade and silk bag in her hand, "Thank you, my lord."
The eunuch raised his hand and raised the thin cloth in front of the window lattice. Seeing that no one was chasing him out of the Tianshi platform, he was relieved a little. He hurriedly said: "I don't know where the person Your Highness asked to pick up is."
Hearing this, Fang's heart choked up for a moment, and she was still thinking about that rabbit hiccupping.
Sitting in the carriage, she was still in shock, her heart was beating wildly at the thought of going to the mansion in the west of the city to pick up the rabbit.
At first she thought about it but couldn't figure it out, she thought, the fairy in red was the only one who lived in the mansion in the west of the city, now that the fairies are already in Yangning Palace, who else can she pick up.
She was afraid that she would pick up the wrong person, so when she was still in Yangning Palace, she couldn't help asking one more question: "I don't know who the servant is going to pick up..."
Li Qingning fell silent and didn't speak for a while, her eyes slanted away, her throat moved slightly, and she said after a long time: "That rabbit."
Sitting in the carriage now, Fang Xin didn't know how to tell the eunuch that the person His Highness wanted to pick up was not a human being.
However, maybe it can become a human...
Forget it, she said slowly: "It's in the west of the city."
The carriage drove towards the west of the city and stopped in front of a house.
Fang Xin wanted to push the door directly, but on second thought, she didn't seem to have much respect for the rabbit, so she knocked on the door after much deliberation.
After knocking for a long time, no one in the yard responded.
Fang's heart froze, she just felt that she had probably entered a magic barrier, could it be that the rabbit would open the door for her when she knocked on the door.
Just as she thought of this, the door suddenly opened, and a gust of wind rushed towards her face, causing her to stagger back in shock.
She swallowed nervously, walked into the door cautiously, and looked into the distance, the rabbit was squatting on the table.
Bai Tu was lying on the table, looking at Fang Xin with red eyes without blinking.
Fang Xin was very tangled in her heart, she wondered if she still had to say hello?
Bai Tu didn't say a word, and didn't even hiccup.
"Your Highness ordered the servants to come and pick you up into the palace." Fang Xin said decisively, as if desperately fighting.
After finishing speaking, she walked towards Bai Tu, walking very slowly step by step, for fear that the rabbit would suddenly speak.
Bai Tu also wondered in his heart, it was so good, why did Li Qingning pick him up, could it be Xian Yu's intention.
Perhaps it was what Xian Yu meant, after all, he and Li Qingning were not very familiar.
He jumped off the stone table and walked towards the maid.
Unexpectedly, the maid froze in place.
Fang couldn't move her heart, she couldn't figure out what this rabbit was, even if it was a spirit beast, it wouldn't hiccup and make an old man's voice.
"Why don't you go?" Bai Tu asked.
Fang Xin almost fainted, but still bit the bullet and hugged the rabbit on the ground.
On the carriage, seeing Fang Xin came back, the eunuch asked in surprise, "Where is the person His Highness is going to pick up?"
Fang Xin froze and said, "Here it is."
As a result, even the eunuch was dumbfounded.
Bai Tu bowed down silently, only feeling that there was an aura in the car that was very familiar.
He moved his nose and sniffed it, his face was on Fangxin's skirt.
Bai Tu suddenly realized that there seemed to be something hidden in the sleeve of the little maid.
In Yangning Palace.
Taking advantage of Li Qingning's exit, Xian Yu turned over and got out of bed, stepping on something inadvertently.
Thin and long, it really hurts the feet.
She looked down, only to realize that the thing she stepped under her feet was actually that wolf hair.
Her cheeks couldn't help but heat up, she really didn't want to see something that made her cry.
Then you have to throw this thing away, she thought.
Xian Yu bent down and picked it up, looked left and right, not knowing where to throw it.
Her eyes drooped, and she turned her head slightly, the small cabinet next to the bed suddenly bumped into her sight.
Chapter 105
105
The huanghuali round-corner cabinet stands on the side of the bed, with clear wood grain, engraved with a phoenix wearing a peony pattern, one phoenix and one phoenix looming among the flowers.
The wooden cabinet was unlocked, Xian Yu thought to herself, she found a cold chain in this wooden cabinet last time, presumably this small cabinet is not used to store any serious objects.
Xian Yu was still holding the wolf pen in her hand. Although the pen was not very warm, she felt it was very hot, and she really wanted to put this thing in a place where she could not see it.
She thought about it for a long time, thinking that if she put this thing in the cabinet, Li Qingning opened it later, and suddenly saw the pen lying in the cabinet, and couldn't help but think of the nasty things she had done, maybe she would feel ashamed to face her.
Very good.
Xian Yu stretched out his hand and opened the small cabinet. Just when he was about to put the wolf hair in his hand, he suddenly saw something else lying in the cabinet.
It's a rag and a small handkerchief.
What the veil was used for, she didn't know, but she knew where the rag came from.
She tore it off, from Li Qingning's clothes.
When she left the house in the west of the city that time, she expected that Li Qingning would look for her, so she pressed the rag under the tea cup and left it to Li Qingning.
At that time, she just wanted to find a way to torment Li Qingning so that Li Qingning would miss her day and night.
How could Li Qingning hide this rag, it was hidden in such a good location, it was still beside the bed, and when she was resting, she could reach out and take it out of the cabinet.
But what to do with it, holding this rag and recalling the events of that day? It's really not like what Li Qingning would do.
If you talk about it in more detail, it's not like what Li Qingning would have done two days ago, she used to disdain such things as satisfying, warming and thinking about desire.
Xian Yu thought to herself, this Li Qingning behaved differently, pretending to be so dignified and self-respecting in front of her, but thinking about such things behind her back.
But thinking about it, it was also because of this that Li Qingning couldn't hide her thoughts, so she tossed her in different ways in the past two days.
Xian Yu quickly threw the wolf hair in his hand, not wanting to touch it for even a moment.
She hastily closed the wooden cabinet, really wanting Li Qingning to explain why she put that rag in the cabinet.
At this time, Li Qingning went to Jinlin Palace again, and told Li Zaiyu that King Ruiheng had performed the sacrificial ceremony.
The weak emperor was still lying on the bed, as if he was dying.
There were several sets of underwear hanging on the screen, all soaked in cold sweat.
Li Zaiyu couldn't even cough anymore. When he saw Li Qingning came to pay his respects, he only slightly rolled his eyes, but he didn't even say a word.
Mr. Li was taking the silver needle to the candle to burn it, he got so close that the fire was about to burn his eyebrows.
Li Qingning said indifferently: "The two major sect masters did not dare to enter the palace, presumably because they felt ashamed to see the emperor's brother."
Li Zaiyu stared with a pair of eyes, showing a trace of panic.
He also didn't expect that he would become so sick. He thought that the drug addiction could be eradicated quickly, but he didn't expect that the situation was getting worse, and it seemed that he couldn't get better.
If so, what is the purpose of his careful calculation during this time, and what is the purpose of forcing his own flesh and blood to nowhere.
He was terribly afraid that the throne would be coveted before, but now he was afraid that after his death, no one could inherit the throne.
The eldest son is not good at the art of emperor, the third son is greedy for life and afraid of death and is extremely easy to be deceived, the fourth son is crazy and has already lost his mind, the fifth son is ignorant, and the sixth son is still in his infancy.
Among these few people, who can afford to sit above the tens of millions of people?
Afraid that Dongzhou would be destroyed in his hands, Li Zaiyu's eyes were astringent, and a line of tears flowed down his face onto the pillow.
Li Qingning watched coldly, still as if she was not stained with dust, and her heart seemed to be frozen by frost.
Master Li closed his eyes, took a slow breath, and put the hot silver needle back into the needle bag.
He was kneeling on the side of the couch on one knee, but now he put the other knee on the ground, bowed and touched his forehead to the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "I will definitely do my best, and I only hope that Your Majesty will be at peace as soon as possible."
The person lying on the bed moved his lips when he heard the words, as if he wanted to say something.
Li Qingning frowned slightly, "Lord Li, His Majesty wants to tell you something."
Master Li straightened up quickly, his old face full of ravines was covered with tears, he saw Li Zaiyu's lips moved again, and quickly moved his ears a little closer.
He didn't even dare to breathe too hard, for fear that he might not be able to hear Li Zaiyu's words clearly.
Li Zaiyu said weakly, "Did the eldest princess see... the two sects... suzerain?"
Master Li quickly raised his head, stared at Li Qing, and said slowly: "Your Majesty asked, did your Highness see the two sect masters?"
Li Qingning's expression remained unchanged, she leaned forward and asked in a low voice: "I don't know what Brother Huang wants to know."
Li Zaiyu's eyes were red, and his pupils trembled suddenly when he heard the sound. Up to now, he can't care about the emperor's airs, he just wants to survive.
He said: "Brother, I want to know...whether this drug addiction can be eradicated..."
Li Qingning said indifferently: "Brother Huang's drug addiction is caused by the Heliconia vine, whether the drug addiction can be eradicated, I am afraid that the two sects are not very clear, we have to ask the national teacher."
"National teacher." Li Zaiyu said every word, his white teeth were almost chewed to pieces.
He was lying on the bed unable to move, and slowly turned his red eyes to look at Li Qingning, and said with all his strength: "Then... go, ask the national teacher."
"Sister Chen will do it immediately." Li Qingning's voice was very calm, as if she didn't care.
"No." Li Zaiyu suddenly said again, he stretched out his trembling hand from the brocade quilt, and grabbed Li Qingning.
Li Qingning lowered her eyes, watching the skinny hand grabbing her wrist.
She didn't stop, she didn't break away, and there was no disturbance in her heart.
"You said you shouldn't scare the snake, don't, don't..." Li Zaiyu coughed violently a few times without saying a word.
Li Qingning leaned back slightly, her eyes were still as cold as water, and she said softly, "Brother Huang, you don't need to worry."
After her words fell, Li Zaiyu let go of his thin hand.
As if he had exhausted all his strength, as soon as he let go, Li Zaiyu's hand suddenly fell on the bed.
Li Qingning frowned and said again: "It's just that there are many memorials that have not been approved in the past few days, and they have piled up for a while. The emperor's brother is not safe yet, so I'm afraid..."
She paused and said slowly: "It's hard to go up."
Li Zaiyu slowly closed his eyes, pursed his dry lips tightly, and frowned tightly, as if he was in deep thought.
Seeing that he did not speak, Li Qingning said meaningfully: "National affairs must not be delayed. In the near future, Brother Emperor, it is better to let the ministers take charge of the overall situation."
Hearing the sound, Li Zaiyu opened his closed eyes suddenly, "No."
When he squeezed these two words out of his throat, he could already taste the rust in his throat.
Li Qingning said indifferently: "Could it be that Brother Huang has an idea."
Li Zaiyu took a quick breath, he clenched the brocade quilt tightly, the veins on the back of his hands were like the roots of an old tree.
The panic in his eyes was even worse, and his pupils were trembling even more.
Li Qingning could tell that he was afraid.
Now that Li Zaiyu's rights are scattered too much, he has repeatedly made wrong decisions, otherwise he would not have come to this situation today.
If this continues, Dongzhou may no longer be Li's Dongzhou.
Li Qingning said this on purpose, in order to drive Li Zaiyu to a corner and make him let go.
Letting go is not letting him delegate power to the officials.
After a long time, Li Zaiyu whispered again: "No."
Li Qingning moved a little closer, watching Li Zaiyu's chapped lips move, and the hoarse voice escaped from between his lips and teeth.
"You will read the memorial in person, and the court meeting will never be dismissed. You will replace me..." Li Zaiyu stretched out his hand towards Li Qingning again, but as soon as he touched the back of the hand, the raised hand dropped down without much strength.
Although the words are not finished, the main idea is clear.
Master Li's eyes trembled as he knelt aside, and a chill came down his back.
He turned his head and looked at the cold-hearted eldest princess, but saw that the eldest princess's face was still very cold.
This is obviously what the eldest princess wants to achieve, but now she still doesn't change her expression, as if...
Not satisfied.
Li Qingning said indifferently: "Then follow what the emperor said."
She paused, and said again: "But if this is the case, all officials will inevitably become suspicious."
"Help me up." Li Zaiyu said hoarsely.
Li Qingning stretched out her hand, and helped the scrawny man sit up without any effort.
Li Zaiyu coughed badly, coughed and said, "Bring the pen, ink, paper and inkstone."
The eunuch who stood at the side in shock for a long time responded quickly, and quickly went out to fetch the things His Majesty wanted.
Li Zaiyu's hand trembled violently. He raised his left arm and grasped his right wrist tightly, and then managed to write.
The writing of each character is no better than before. Although it is not crooked, it is very weak.
Master Li didn't dare to speak, and stood in the distance watching this scene in fear, feeling pain in his heart and liver.
After a long time, Li Qingning came out of Jinlin Palace.
Several young maids were waiting outside, and when Li Qingning came out, one of them breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Your Highness, do you want to go back to Yangning Palace?"
"No rush." Li Qingning said calmly.
The little maid was stunned for a moment, not knowing what His Highness was waiting for.
Li Qingning sat on the chariot, but did not ask the palace servants to lift the chariot, but sat on it with her back straight, without saying a word.
The little maid didn't understand at first, but when she saw the eunuch accompanying the emperor coming out of Jinlin Palace, she understood in astonishment.
The eunuch walked over slowly holding a box of yellow wood inlaid with gold, "Your Highness, everything is inside."
Li Qingning nodded slightly, and then cast a sidelong glance at the maid beside the chariot.
The little palace lady understood, she quickly reached out to pick it up, and hugged her tightly.
The box is quite heavy, and I don't know if it's because the box is already heavy or the things inside are heavy.
The little maid thought to herself, since it was taken from the Golden Scale Palace, it must have been given by His Majesty, but she couldn't guess what it was given by His Majesty, so such a big wooden box was needed to pack it.
On the way back, the little maid secretly weighed it, and it was really heavy.
She didn't dare to ask, but Fangxin told her a lot before leaving.After returning to Yangning Palace, she held the wooden box and asked hesitantly: "Your Highness, could this, these be rewarded to you by His Majesty?"
Li Qingning raised her arms and put her hands on the wooden box.
Her phoenix eyes were narrowed slightly, and the corners of her lips seemed to be raised a little, but when she looked closely, she didn't seem to be smiling.
The little maid really couldn't figure it out, but she really wanted to know what good things His Majesty gave her master.
After a while, Li Qingning finally said, "It's a memorial."
The little maid was stunned, her mouth opened slightly, but she was too shocked to speak.
Li Qingning said indifferently: "Your Majesty is ill, so I ordered this Palace to review it on your behalf."
The little maid immediately lowered her eyes, too shocked to speak.
"I'll look at it later, you take it to the study first." Li Qingning turned around and went to the dormitory.
The little maid hurriedly responded, holding the wooden box and walking away
Li Qingning was thinking about how to tell Xian Yu about the matter just now, she frowned slightly, and after pushing the door in, she closed the door behind her backhand.
When she raised her eyes, her heart suddenly felt like a thunderbolt from the blue sky.
I saw Xian Yu reclining on the couch, looking lazy and out of shape.
And the door of the small huanghuali cabinet next to the bed was open, and it was clear at a glance what was hidden inside.
Li Qingning's footsteps paused, and she forgot what she wanted to say just now, her originally calm eyes suddenly flickered, and her half-open lips turned and closed again.
Careless, she shouldn't have put things in that small cabinet.
Xian Yu's sly eyes turned, and she looked at the small cabinet at her feet with interest.
She raised her eyebrows and said, "What kind of treasure is hidden in this cabinet, Your Highness?"
Li Qingning walked in silently, pretending to be indifferent, sitting on the drum stool, raised her hand and poured herself a cup of tea.
Before using her spiritual energy to warm up the tea, she picked up the teacup and took a sip.
He took a sip of cold tea and hoped that he could calm down a bit, so as not to get confused.
Unexpectedly, the mood was so chaotic that it couldn't return to its original state.
Xian Yu sat up, bent down and took out the corner of the rag from the cabinet, and said, "I didn't expect His Highness to bring this rag back. Could it be that you want to sew it back?"
Li Qingning sat upright, swallowed another mouthful of weak tea, and said, "No."
"If you don't want to sew it back, what is your Highness doing next to the bed?" Xian Yu was indeed pressing.
Li Qingning's forehead twitched, it was nothing more than failing to suppress the desire in her heart these two days, even the hidden things were dug out by this person.
Why did she put that corner of fabric in the cabinet? It was not on a whim. Why was it on a whim? She was hooked by this person.
I was reluctant to throw it away, but when I saw it, I felt anxious, so I simply threw it away.
There was no pity on Xian Yu's face, and he only said: "If you stop taking the decoction, the poison of the scorpion vine will slowly dissipate, but it's too late now, judging by the emperor's appearance, all internal organs should be injured, now stop the medicine , still doomed to die.”
"Indeed." Li Qingning continued: "However, according to the two sects, there is indeed no record of the scorpion vine in the ancient books."
Xian Yu moved slightly, then moved back an inch.
The light in Li Qing's eyes changed suddenly, and he couldn't help but bend his knees, resisting not to drag him down, and said in a low voice: "It seems that Bai Tu is really involved with the national teacher, otherwise there is no record in the ancient books, why did they Know so clearly."
Xian Yu frowned, the national teacher undoubtedly knew Bai Tu, but it was a pity that Bai Tu didn't remember the past.
She felt annoyed and felt uncomfortable sitting, so she couldn't help moving again.
"Don't move." Li Qing said coldly.
Xian Yu looked down at her, only then realized that he had set fire to Li Qingning's heart.
She smiled, and said casually: "Has Your Highness figured out how to get the soil from Tianshitai?"
Li Qingning's face was frosty, "I have ordered someone to get it, so don't worry."
"Then can I go out?" Xian Yu seemed to add fuel to the fire.
Li Qingning frowned, "Is the thing washed? If not, why are you leaving in such a hurry?"
Chapter 104
104
The room suddenly fell silent.
Xian Yu didn't know what to say for a while, she saw that Li Qingning's expression was calm, as if there was no ripple in her heart when she spoke.
She subconsciously wanted to run, but just as she turned sideways, the remaining gauze that tied her hands was untied immediately.
Li Qingning's slender fingers scratched the remnant yarn, and the aura attached to it was immediately withdrawn.
As soon as the spiritual energy disappeared, the gauze wrapped around her wrist loosened a little and slid down lightly.
Xian Yu hurriedly said: "Your Highness, why are you so unreasonable? It's daytime now, where are His Highness's rules?"
Li Qingning stood up and said coldly, "When will you listen to my reasoning?"
The words were true, Xian Yu choked up a bit.
Li Qingning said again: "If I am the only one who obeys the rules and you don't, then what's the use of following the rules."
Xian Yu understood that the pits she had dug for Li Qingning were now placed under her feet one by one, and Li Qingning wanted to push her into the pits.
Although now Li Qingning is as she wants, she feels comfortable inside and out, but if she is asked to wash the mattress, it will kill her.
She lay down on the side, staring at the person beside her without blinking, trying to see a hint of joking in Li Qingning's eyes.
But no, Li Qing condensed his face with a serious look.
Xian Yu didn't start, looked at the bedpost and said, "But I'm not outside the palace, who will get the soil for Bai Tu?"
Li Qingning looked indifferent, "Someone will bring it to him."
"But Bai Tu doesn't recognize anyone else anymore, he is extremely defensive, and he definitely won't sniff the soil." Xian Yu grabbed Bai Tu and wouldn't let him go.
"Of course he will send someone he knows well." Li Qingning's voice was flat.
"But the person he knows best is me." Xian Yu still didn't want to compromise.
Li Qingning saw that she turned her head away, her eyes were still erratic, like a magpie trembling, or a magpie with red hair.
She pursed her lips slightly and said, "He knows the heart."
Xian Yu was stunned for a moment, thinking that she really deserved to be Li Qingning, and there were plenty of ways to prevaricate her.
"But if Bai Tu has something to tell me." Xian Yu said again.
Li Qingning raised her chin and glanced at the veil on the bed, only to see that a piece was missing, and the missing half was lying on the bed now.
She raised her hand to pinch the remnant yarn, threw it on the ground with a cold face, and said: "Then let Fangxin bring it in, what's so difficult about it."
"Li Qingning, you are really lawless." Xian Yu turned her head and glared at the person who stood up slightly.
Li Qingning's face was still as cold as water, "I thought so."
She paused and stared at Xian Yu for a while, as if she was waiting for Xian Yu to understand.
But Xian Yu really didn't understand, she thought to herself, what's the point of leaving half of what you said.She raised her eyebrows and said with a sneer, "Li Qingning, are you playing charades?"
Only then did Li Qingning say: "I thought you were going to ask me again if I have a heart."
Xianyu's ears warmed up. She had indeed said this many times, whether it was in the previous life or in this life, she had said it more than once.
When he said this at first, he really hated it very much, and complained extremely that Li Qingning didn't respond to her, and he never revealed half of what was in his heart to her.
But later, she seemed to get used to Li Qingning's careless appearance, and when she said this again, she didn't hate her so deeply, but seemed to be provocative. She just wanted to hear how Li Qingning would answer.
Later, even if Li Qingning was seduced by her and fell into the tide of emotion, she still wanted to lean into Li Qingning's ear and say something.
She wanted to annoy Li Qingning, so if she was so annoyed, she might not bother to cover it up, so she would treat her sincerely.
Now when I think about what I did in my previous life, it's really contrived, as if I'm deliberately putting on a show.
Maybe in the previous life, in Li Qingning's eyes, she looked like a fool.
Now that Li Qingning said this, Xian Yu couldn't help but feel a little awkward.
Think about it carefully, if the person with the cold face in the previous life was me, and there was a person beside me who kept asking for it, and I clearly fulfilled her wish, then that person would still ask me if I have the heart at that time...
Xian Yu just felt her face was getting hot. She seemed to only care about herself in her previous life, but she never asked Li Qingning if she wanted to.
Li Qing said calmly: "So, do you think I have a heart now?"
Xian Yu turned his head and glanced at the cold-faced beauty who was as bright as the bright moon, and then withdrew his eyes after one glance, and buried his face in the brocade quilt as soon as he lowered his head.
She took a deep breath slowly and said, "Yes."
"What's the matter?" Li Qingning asked as if she didn't hear clearly.
Xian Yu raised his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Have a heart."
Li Qingning smiled, very lightly, and the smile faded in an instant, "I've thought about it for a long time, and what the national teacher wants to find is nothing but white paint."
The enthusiasm that finally appeared on Xian Yu's face dissipated immediately, "That's why you want to keep me in the palace?"
"If I keep you by Baitu's side, I'm afraid the national teacher will accidentally hurt you." Li Qingning said calmly.
Xian Yu chuckled, "I also said that you love me."
"If I don't feel sorry for you, how can I be afraid that the national teacher will accidentally hurt you." Li Qingning said with a frown.
Xian Yu's face was full of sarcasm, but what she wanted to mock was not Li Qingning, but the national teacher.She said: "But the national teacher will not let me go, even if he has a chance to take Bai Tu's life, he will definitely not let me go."
She paused, and then said: "The national teacher is so afraid of the Danyin scroll, now he knows that I have repaired the Danyin scroll, how can he let me go so easily."
Li Qingning's face was as cold as frost and snow.
Xian Yu said casually: "Your Highness doesn't need to protect me, I've been involved from the very beginning."
Li Qingning didn't speak, but her eyes turned cold again, as if she had just crawled out of the cold sky.
"It's Bai Tu who reversed the destiny, and that's why I have everything in this life." Xian Yu slowed down his speech, as if he wanted to put every word into Li Qingning's heart, "Your Highness, I can't retreat."
Li Qingning still didn't speak, she lowered her eyes, as if she was thinking about something.
Xian Yu sat up, looked down at her, and said, "I can't let something happen to Bai Tu."
The man who had been silent for a long time moved his lips and said, "I won't let anything happen to him."
"Then you have to let me out." Xian Yu raised her eyebrows slightly.
Li Qingning stopped talking again, and after a long time, she raised her eyes to look at Chao Yu, her eyes were as sharp as a knife, as if she wanted to swallow the life in her eyes alive.
For a moment, Xian Yu felt that Li Qingning would let her die on this bed.
Li Qingning restrained the coldness in her eyes, moved her lips, and said, "Just take him in immediately."
Xian Yu closed her eyes, although she knew that Li Qingning was so stubborn, she didn't expect that this man would still refuse to let her go in the end.
She knew that the national teacher would always find her, and it would be best for her to be with Bai Tu, so that Li Qingning would not be implicated.
Li Qingning saw the pupils under her eyelids move, she was clearly thinking about something, she turned around and said: "I thought about it, the palace is better than the outside."
The voice paused, and she said again: "The national teacher's soul is damaged now, and he cannot shake the dragon veins and the national destiny. If His Majesty leaves at this time, the new emperor will soon ascend the throne, and the purple energy will be passed on. The dragon veins will slowly recover, and the country The teacher will undoubtedly waste all his previous efforts.”
"At this time, he absolutely dare not do anything in the palace, if he does." Li Qingning said unhurriedly.
"Then what will happen to His Highness?" Xian Yu asked.
Li Qingning slowly leaned towards Chao Yu, her red lips almost touching the other's ear.
Xian Yu turned her head to the side, only to feel that the voice that fell into her ears was extremely clear.
Li Qingning said: "The palace has thousands of ways to send the emperor to see the King of Hades early, so that he can get rid of the pain and be no longer trapped by drug addiction."
Xian Yu's pupils shrank.
From Li Qingning's face, she could not see the slightest bit of reluctance, she was determined and ruthless, indeed Li Qingning could do it.
It's just that Li Qingning had never said such a thing in front of her in her previous life, but kept it from her and secretly calculated everything.
Now she could hear it very clearly, and her heart couldn't help but tighten.
Maybe Li Qingning's intentions were only for her.
She propped her hands on the bed, her waist slumped slightly, and she pressed her bloodless lips on Li Qingning's chin.
As soon as this move was made, the stupefied person became Li Qingning.
No matter how Li Qingning figured it out, how could Xian Yu come over all of a sudden.
Xian Yu looked at her without blinking, and the lips imprinted on the chin slowly moved upwards.
Very slow, somehow, seems to be slower than dripping water through a stone.
Xian Yu bit Li Qingning's lips, only once, slowly straightened up, and made another impression on Li Qingning's brow.
Li Qing was pressed down coldly, and the man in red was lying on her body, sticking very tightly, and buried his head on her shoulder, motionless.
She raised her hand to stroke Xian Yu's black hair, not knowing what was wrong with him.
Xian Yu clung to Li Qingning so tightly that she could even feel the beating of Li Qingning's heart clearly.
She said in her heart, she does have a heart, only for her, and her heart beats quite fast.
After a long silence, Xian Yu said: "If Your Highness is willing, then bring Bai Tu in."
Tianshi Taichung.
Before the ceremony was over, the soul banner was flying, and the black runes on it were faintly visible.
The national teacher sat cross-legged on the ground, muttering something, while throwing gold and silver paper ingots into the fire.
Tongues of fire surged up, turning the paper into ashes in an instant.
The national teacher was dressed in a white robe but not even a speck of ashes touched him, as if even the wind had bypassed him.
He turned his back to the crowd and covered his face with a mask, so no one could see his expression.
After he finished reading, he threw out a copper coin suddenly, and the copper coin slammed on King Ruiheng's coffin with a clang.
The copper coin spun around and then stopped. To everyone's surprise, the copper coin was still standing, standing firmly on the coffin.
Seeing this, the kid kneeling beside him quickly stood up, held the golden bell in his hand, and handed it to the national teacher.
The national teacher picked up the golden bell and moved his wrist slightly.
The golden bell rang, but the sound was not very crisp, nor could it be called pleasant.
The voice was as deep and deep as an ancient bell, which made everyone's ears buzzing, and they couldn't help feeling dizzy.
After the golden bell rang three times, the copper coins standing on the coffin finally fell down.
"Prince Ruiheng's soul is at peace." The national teacher paused, and said again: "Lift up the coffin."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people ran up to the stage immediately.
Just as those people were fastening the ropes on the coffin, a eunuch came in a hurry.
All the people present looked at the person who came, but they saw that the eunuch seemed to come alone, without a chariot or sedan chair behind him.
Who doesn't recognize the people around the emperor, and who dare not recognize them.
The national teacher also looked at the man, but he didn't speak. His eyes behind the mask were gloomy, and the bloodshot eyes were still bloodshot, as if he was extremely tired.
The eunuch walked up to the altar, and waved the whisk in his hand, "Master, the national teacher, is it time to perform a sacrifice now?"
The national teacher nodded and said, "Exactly."
The eunuch stood upright, and the voice at the exit was slightly sharp, not too loud, just enough for the people in the audience to hear.
He said: "Your Majesty is extremely sad, and King Dao Ruiheng hasn't fallen asleep for a long time, so I sent a servant over to take a handful of soil from the Tianshitai and put it in King Ruiheng's coffin, so that King Ruiheng will remember the time to return to the capital. road."
The people under the stage really heard it, and there was a burst of booing, and they couldn't help but sigh, His Majesty really loves King Rui Heng, and King Rui Heng will be unable to get up after leaving.
The national teacher's expression changed slightly, but fortunately his face was covered with a mask, so no one could see his expression.
"Your Majesty's affection is sincere. Since it is His Majesty's intention, I will let the minister take this piece of soil." The national teacher raised his arm as he spoke, as if he wanted to use his spiritual power to fetch the soil.
"National teacher wait a minute." The eunuch said suddenly.
He said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty ordered this servant to take it and release it himself, so that he can see King Ruiheng for him."
As if to let everyone in the audience hear him, when he said this, he deliberately raised his voice.
The people under the altar whispered to each other, and suddenly began to chatter.
Someone said: "Since King Ruiheng's soul is at peace, it should be no problem to put some soil."
"King Ruiheng died in such a precipitous place, so far away from the capital, did he really forget how to get back?" Another humane questioned.
"Since this is the case, I wonder if the national teacher can call King Ruiheng into His Majesty's dream, and His Majesty's wish will be fulfilled."
The national teacher stood on the stage and slowly closed his eyes. He pursed his lips slightly and said lightly: "The sacrificial ceremony has been completed and cannot be reversed."
"Your Majesty knows that if it is a national teacher, then it will be fine." The eunuch looked at the national teacher.
The national teacher slowly lowered his raised arm, and after a long silence, he said, "Please."
The eunuch saluted, turned around and walked off the stage, under the watchful eyes of everyone, dug up the soil under a tree in the distance.
He squatted by the tree, shaking some soil into his sleeve pocket with his heart beating like thunder, and then he put the whisk under his shoulders, picked up some soil and walked towards the altar.
"Open the coffin." When he walked to the edge of the coffin, he raised his voice and said.
The person who carried the coffin suddenly became the person who opened the coffin. Several people looked at each other in dismay. One of them took a deep breath and lifted the lid of the coffin with all his might.
The eunuch holding a fistful of soil stood beside him, carefully glanced into the coffin, his eyes dodged, and he shook the soil in his hand into the coffin holding his breath.
After closing her hands, she stood up straight and exhaled slowly, patted her palms and said, "It's all right."
Hearing this, the person who lifted the coffin lid just now slowly closed it again.
The eunuch turned to look at the national teacher, and said, "The national teacher is bothering you."
The national teacher's eyes flickered for a moment, and there was a trace of undetectable panic in his eyes.
It's just that his expression quickly returned to normal, and he saluted slowly, but he didn't say a word.
The eunuch walked out of the Tianshitai slowly, and he relaxed his tense shoulders and neck after he got out of the Tianshitai door. He bowed and climbed onto the carriage.
After raising the curtain, the eunuch put the mud in the sleeve pocket into the brocade silk bag bit by bit.
He was not the only one sitting in the car, but also a girl.
Fang Xin sat on the carriage, looked sideways at the eunuch tightening the silk bag, "My lord, is this the soil from Tianshitai?"
The eunuch nodded slightly, and handed out the silk bag with both hands, "This is what His Highness wants."
Fang Xin quickly put away the brocade and silk bag in her hand, "Thank you, my lord."
The eunuch raised his hand and raised the thin cloth in front of the window lattice. Seeing that no one was chasing him out of the Tianshi platform, he was relieved a little. He hurriedly said: "I don't know where the person Your Highness asked to pick up is."
Hearing this, Fang's heart choked up for a moment, and she was still thinking about that rabbit hiccupping.
Sitting in the carriage, she was still in shock, her heart was beating wildly at the thought of going to the mansion in the west of the city to pick up the rabbit.
At first she thought about it but couldn't figure it out, she thought, the fairy in red was the only one who lived in the mansion in the west of the city, now that the fairies are already in Yangning Palace, who else can she pick up.
She was afraid that she would pick up the wrong person, so when she was still in Yangning Palace, she couldn't help asking one more question: "I don't know who the servant is going to pick up..."
Li Qingning fell silent and didn't speak for a while, her eyes slanted away, her throat moved slightly, and she said after a long time: "That rabbit."
Sitting in the carriage now, Fang Xin didn't know how to tell the eunuch that the person His Highness wanted to pick up was not a human being.
However, maybe it can become a human...
Forget it, she said slowly: "It's in the west of the city."
The carriage drove towards the west of the city and stopped in front of a house.
Fang Xin wanted to push the door directly, but on second thought, she didn't seem to have much respect for the rabbit, so she knocked on the door after much deliberation.
After knocking for a long time, no one in the yard responded.
Fang's heart froze, she just felt that she had probably entered a magic barrier, could it be that the rabbit would open the door for her when she knocked on the door.
Just as she thought of this, the door suddenly opened, and a gust of wind rushed towards her face, causing her to stagger back in shock.
She swallowed nervously, walked into the door cautiously, and looked into the distance, the rabbit was squatting on the table.
Bai Tu was lying on the table, looking at Fang Xin with red eyes without blinking.
Fang Xin was very tangled in her heart, she wondered if she still had to say hello?
Bai Tu didn't say a word, and didn't even hiccup.
"Your Highness ordered the servants to come and pick you up into the palace." Fang Xin said decisively, as if desperately fighting.
After finishing speaking, she walked towards Bai Tu, walking very slowly step by step, for fear that the rabbit would suddenly speak.
Bai Tu also wondered in his heart, it was so good, why did Li Qingning pick him up, could it be Xian Yu's intention.
Perhaps it was what Xian Yu meant, after all, he and Li Qingning were not very familiar.
He jumped off the stone table and walked towards the maid.
Unexpectedly, the maid froze in place.
Fang couldn't move her heart, she couldn't figure out what this rabbit was, even if it was a spirit beast, it wouldn't hiccup and make an old man's voice.
"Why don't you go?" Bai Tu asked.
Fang Xin almost fainted, but still bit the bullet and hugged the rabbit on the ground.
On the carriage, seeing Fang Xin came back, the eunuch asked in surprise, "Where is the person His Highness is going to pick up?"
Fang Xin froze and said, "Here it is."
As a result, even the eunuch was dumbfounded.
Bai Tu bowed down silently, only feeling that there was an aura in the car that was very familiar.
He moved his nose and sniffed it, his face was on Fangxin's skirt.
Bai Tu suddenly realized that there seemed to be something hidden in the sleeve of the little maid.
In Yangning Palace.
Taking advantage of Li Qingning's exit, Xian Yu turned over and got out of bed, stepping on something inadvertently.
Thin and long, it really hurts the feet.
She looked down, only to realize that the thing she stepped under her feet was actually that wolf hair.
Her cheeks couldn't help but heat up, she really didn't want to see something that made her cry.
Then you have to throw this thing away, she thought.
Xian Yu bent down and picked it up, looked left and right, not knowing where to throw it.
Her eyes drooped, and she turned her head slightly, the small cabinet next to the bed suddenly bumped into her sight.
Chapter 105
105
The huanghuali round-corner cabinet stands on the side of the bed, with clear wood grain, engraved with a phoenix wearing a peony pattern, one phoenix and one phoenix looming among the flowers.
The wooden cabinet was unlocked, Xian Yu thought to herself, she found a cold chain in this wooden cabinet last time, presumably this small cabinet is not used to store any serious objects.
Xian Yu was still holding the wolf pen in her hand. Although the pen was not very warm, she felt it was very hot, and she really wanted to put this thing in a place where she could not see it.
She thought about it for a long time, thinking that if she put this thing in the cabinet, Li Qingning opened it later, and suddenly saw the pen lying in the cabinet, and couldn't help but think of the nasty things she had done, maybe she would feel ashamed to face her.
Very good.
Xian Yu stretched out his hand and opened the small cabinet. Just when he was about to put the wolf hair in his hand, he suddenly saw something else lying in the cabinet.
It's a rag and a small handkerchief.
What the veil was used for, she didn't know, but she knew where the rag came from.
She tore it off, from Li Qingning's clothes.
When she left the house in the west of the city that time, she expected that Li Qingning would look for her, so she pressed the rag under the tea cup and left it to Li Qingning.
At that time, she just wanted to find a way to torment Li Qingning so that Li Qingning would miss her day and night.
How could Li Qingning hide this rag, it was hidden in such a good location, it was still beside the bed, and when she was resting, she could reach out and take it out of the cabinet.
But what to do with it, holding this rag and recalling the events of that day? It's really not like what Li Qingning would do.
If you talk about it in more detail, it's not like what Li Qingning would have done two days ago, she used to disdain such things as satisfying, warming and thinking about desire.
Xian Yu thought to herself, this Li Qingning behaved differently, pretending to be so dignified and self-respecting in front of her, but thinking about such things behind her back.
But thinking about it, it was also because of this that Li Qingning couldn't hide her thoughts, so she tossed her in different ways in the past two days.
Xian Yu quickly threw the wolf hair in his hand, not wanting to touch it for even a moment.
She hastily closed the wooden cabinet, really wanting Li Qingning to explain why she put that rag in the cabinet.
At this time, Li Qingning went to Jinlin Palace again, and told Li Zaiyu that King Ruiheng had performed the sacrificial ceremony.
The weak emperor was still lying on the bed, as if he was dying.
There were several sets of underwear hanging on the screen, all soaked in cold sweat.
Li Zaiyu couldn't even cough anymore. When he saw Li Qingning came to pay his respects, he only slightly rolled his eyes, but he didn't even say a word.
Mr. Li was taking the silver needle to the candle to burn it, he got so close that the fire was about to burn his eyebrows.
Li Qingning said indifferently: "The two major sect masters did not dare to enter the palace, presumably because they felt ashamed to see the emperor's brother."
Li Zaiyu stared with a pair of eyes, showing a trace of panic.
He also didn't expect that he would become so sick. He thought that the drug addiction could be eradicated quickly, but he didn't expect that the situation was getting worse, and it seemed that he couldn't get better.
If so, what is the purpose of his careful calculation during this time, and what is the purpose of forcing his own flesh and blood to nowhere.
He was terribly afraid that the throne would be coveted before, but now he was afraid that after his death, no one could inherit the throne.
The eldest son is not good at the art of emperor, the third son is greedy for life and afraid of death and is extremely easy to be deceived, the fourth son is crazy and has already lost his mind, the fifth son is ignorant, and the sixth son is still in his infancy.
Among these few people, who can afford to sit above the tens of millions of people?
Afraid that Dongzhou would be destroyed in his hands, Li Zaiyu's eyes were astringent, and a line of tears flowed down his face onto the pillow.
Li Qingning watched coldly, still as if she was not stained with dust, and her heart seemed to be frozen by frost.
Master Li closed his eyes, took a slow breath, and put the hot silver needle back into the needle bag.
He was kneeling on the side of the couch on one knee, but now he put the other knee on the ground, bowed and touched his forehead to the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "I will definitely do my best, and I only hope that Your Majesty will be at peace as soon as possible."
The person lying on the bed moved his lips when he heard the words, as if he wanted to say something.
Li Qingning frowned slightly, "Lord Li, His Majesty wants to tell you something."
Master Li straightened up quickly, his old face full of ravines was covered with tears, he saw Li Zaiyu's lips moved again, and quickly moved his ears a little closer.
He didn't even dare to breathe too hard, for fear that he might not be able to hear Li Zaiyu's words clearly.
Li Zaiyu said weakly, "Did the eldest princess see... the two sects... suzerain?"
Master Li quickly raised his head, stared at Li Qing, and said slowly: "Your Majesty asked, did your Highness see the two sect masters?"
Li Qingning's expression remained unchanged, she leaned forward and asked in a low voice: "I don't know what Brother Huang wants to know."
Li Zaiyu's eyes were red, and his pupils trembled suddenly when he heard the sound. Up to now, he can't care about the emperor's airs, he just wants to survive.
He said: "Brother, I want to know...whether this drug addiction can be eradicated..."
Li Qingning said indifferently: "Brother Huang's drug addiction is caused by the Heliconia vine, whether the drug addiction can be eradicated, I am afraid that the two sects are not very clear, we have to ask the national teacher."
"National teacher." Li Zaiyu said every word, his white teeth were almost chewed to pieces.
He was lying on the bed unable to move, and slowly turned his red eyes to look at Li Qingning, and said with all his strength: "Then... go, ask the national teacher."
"Sister Chen will do it immediately." Li Qingning's voice was very calm, as if she didn't care.
"No." Li Zaiyu suddenly said again, he stretched out his trembling hand from the brocade quilt, and grabbed Li Qingning.
Li Qingning lowered her eyes, watching the skinny hand grabbing her wrist.
She didn't stop, she didn't break away, and there was no disturbance in her heart.
"You said you shouldn't scare the snake, don't, don't..." Li Zaiyu coughed violently a few times without saying a word.
Li Qingning leaned back slightly, her eyes were still as cold as water, and she said softly, "Brother Huang, you don't need to worry."
After her words fell, Li Zaiyu let go of his thin hand.
As if he had exhausted all his strength, as soon as he let go, Li Zaiyu's hand suddenly fell on the bed.
Li Qingning frowned and said again: "It's just that there are many memorials that have not been approved in the past few days, and they have piled up for a while. The emperor's brother is not safe yet, so I'm afraid..."
She paused and said slowly: "It's hard to go up."
Li Zaiyu slowly closed his eyes, pursed his dry lips tightly, and frowned tightly, as if he was in deep thought.
Seeing that he did not speak, Li Qingning said meaningfully: "National affairs must not be delayed. In the near future, Brother Emperor, it is better to let the ministers take charge of the overall situation."
Hearing the sound, Li Zaiyu opened his closed eyes suddenly, "No."
When he squeezed these two words out of his throat, he could already taste the rust in his throat.
Li Qingning said indifferently: "Could it be that Brother Huang has an idea."
Li Zaiyu took a quick breath, he clenched the brocade quilt tightly, the veins on the back of his hands were like the roots of an old tree.
The panic in his eyes was even worse, and his pupils were trembling even more.
Li Qingning could tell that he was afraid.
Now that Li Zaiyu's rights are scattered too much, he has repeatedly made wrong decisions, otherwise he would not have come to this situation today.
If this continues, Dongzhou may no longer be Li's Dongzhou.
Li Qingning said this on purpose, in order to drive Li Zaiyu to a corner and make him let go.
Letting go is not letting him delegate power to the officials.
After a long time, Li Zaiyu whispered again: "No."
Li Qingning moved a little closer, watching Li Zaiyu's chapped lips move, and the hoarse voice escaped from between his lips and teeth.
"You will read the memorial in person, and the court meeting will never be dismissed. You will replace me..." Li Zaiyu stretched out his hand towards Li Qingning again, but as soon as he touched the back of the hand, the raised hand dropped down without much strength.
Although the words are not finished, the main idea is clear.
Master Li's eyes trembled as he knelt aside, and a chill came down his back.
He turned his head and looked at the cold-hearted eldest princess, but saw that the eldest princess's face was still very cold.
This is obviously what the eldest princess wants to achieve, but now she still doesn't change her expression, as if...
Not satisfied.
Li Qingning said indifferently: "Then follow what the emperor said."
She paused, and said again: "But if this is the case, all officials will inevitably become suspicious."
"Help me up." Li Zaiyu said hoarsely.
Li Qingning stretched out her hand, and helped the scrawny man sit up without any effort.
Li Zaiyu coughed badly, coughed and said, "Bring the pen, ink, paper and inkstone."
The eunuch who stood at the side in shock for a long time responded quickly, and quickly went out to fetch the things His Majesty wanted.
Li Zaiyu's hand trembled violently. He raised his left arm and grasped his right wrist tightly, and then managed to write.
The writing of each character is no better than before. Although it is not crooked, it is very weak.
Master Li didn't dare to speak, and stood in the distance watching this scene in fear, feeling pain in his heart and liver.
After a long time, Li Qingning came out of Jinlin Palace.
Several young maids were waiting outside, and when Li Qingning came out, one of them breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Your Highness, do you want to go back to Yangning Palace?"
"No rush." Li Qingning said calmly.
The little maid was stunned for a moment, not knowing what His Highness was waiting for.
Li Qingning sat on the chariot, but did not ask the palace servants to lift the chariot, but sat on it with her back straight, without saying a word.
The little maid didn't understand at first, but when she saw the eunuch accompanying the emperor coming out of Jinlin Palace, she understood in astonishment.
The eunuch walked over slowly holding a box of yellow wood inlaid with gold, "Your Highness, everything is inside."
Li Qingning nodded slightly, and then cast a sidelong glance at the maid beside the chariot.
The little palace lady understood, she quickly reached out to pick it up, and hugged her tightly.
The box is quite heavy, and I don't know if it's because the box is already heavy or the things inside are heavy.
The little maid thought to herself, since it was taken from the Golden Scale Palace, it must have been given by His Majesty, but she couldn't guess what it was given by His Majesty, so such a big wooden box was needed to pack it.
On the way back, the little maid secretly weighed it, and it was really heavy.
She didn't dare to ask, but Fangxin told her a lot before leaving.After returning to Yangning Palace, she held the wooden box and asked hesitantly: "Your Highness, could this, these be rewarded to you by His Majesty?"
Li Qingning raised her arms and put her hands on the wooden box.
Her phoenix eyes were narrowed slightly, and the corners of her lips seemed to be raised a little, but when she looked closely, she didn't seem to be smiling.
The little maid really couldn't figure it out, but she really wanted to know what good things His Majesty gave her master.
After a while, Li Qingning finally said, "It's a memorial."
The little maid was stunned, her mouth opened slightly, but she was too shocked to speak.
Li Qingning said indifferently: "Your Majesty is ill, so I ordered this Palace to review it on your behalf."
The little maid immediately lowered her eyes, too shocked to speak.
"I'll look at it later, you take it to the study first." Li Qingning turned around and went to the dormitory.
The little maid hurriedly responded, holding the wooden box and walking away
Li Qingning was thinking about how to tell Xian Yu about the matter just now, she frowned slightly, and after pushing the door in, she closed the door behind her backhand.
When she raised her eyes, her heart suddenly felt like a thunderbolt from the blue sky.
I saw Xian Yu reclining on the couch, looking lazy and out of shape.
And the door of the small huanghuali cabinet next to the bed was open, and it was clear at a glance what was hidden inside.
Li Qingning's footsteps paused, and she forgot what she wanted to say just now, her originally calm eyes suddenly flickered, and her half-open lips turned and closed again.
Careless, she shouldn't have put things in that small cabinet.
Xian Yu's sly eyes turned, and she looked at the small cabinet at her feet with interest.
She raised her eyebrows and said, "What kind of treasure is hidden in this cabinet, Your Highness?"
Li Qingning walked in silently, pretending to be indifferent, sitting on the drum stool, raised her hand and poured herself a cup of tea.
Before using her spiritual energy to warm up the tea, she picked up the teacup and took a sip.
He took a sip of cold tea and hoped that he could calm down a bit, so as not to get confused.
Unexpectedly, the mood was so chaotic that it couldn't return to its original state.
Xian Yu sat up, bent down and took out the corner of the rag from the cabinet, and said, "I didn't expect His Highness to bring this rag back. Could it be that you want to sew it back?"
Li Qingning sat upright, swallowed another mouthful of weak tea, and said, "No."
"If you don't want to sew it back, what is your Highness doing next to the bed?" Xian Yu was indeed pressing.
Li Qingning's forehead twitched, it was nothing more than failing to suppress the desire in her heart these two days, even the hidden things were dug out by this person.
Why did she put that corner of fabric in the cabinet? It was not on a whim. Why was it on a whim? She was hooked by this person.
I was reluctant to throw it away, but when I saw it, I felt anxious, so I simply threw it away.
