King Lingyu

A Yue stood guard by the door, and Sima Lingyu, who got the floor plan of the eunuch's mansion, spread the blueprint on the desk in the room and studied it carefully.Zhengrun's drawing is particularly detailed. It is clear at a glance which ones belong to the original Prince Rong's mansion and which ones were expanded later.

The current Ezu Mansion has five gates, seven main halls, five back halls, and two sleeping palaces, each with five rooms.The mansion building is divided into east, middle and west roads, and each road is composed of multi-entry courtyards running through a strict central axis from south to north.At the end of the forehead is a garden with a beautiful environment.Sima Lingyu was very surprised by the large scale and high building specifications of the entire palace complex, which was much larger than Prince Dun's Palace.However, Sima Lingyu is more interested in the underground part than the above-ground part.

In the underground of the mansion, there are indeed several secret roads, intertwined and connected, extending to a Buddhist hall more than 200 miles outside the mansion.And there is actually a big dark room under the bed in a room in the center of the main hall.Sima Lingyu took a closer look, and saw that it was the room where she was at the moment.She got up and went into the inner room, and saw that the bed was extremely smooth and the bedding was brand new.Sima Lingyu stepped forward, leaned down, and stretched out his hand to feel under the bed. There was a faint gap, but it was extremely inconspicuous.She lifted the bedding vigorously, and sure enough, she saw the bed boards facing each other like two doors, the top of which was as clean as a mirror, without any switches.

Sima Lingyu got up to check the bed, there was nothing unusual, and he didn't find any mechanism hidden there.Sima Lingyu simply lay on the bed, looking at the upper curtain of the bed, there was nothing unusual.She got up and sat by the bed again, thinking that the mechanism of the dark room must be near the bed, and it shouldn't be somewhere beside it.Suddenly Sima Lingyu lowered his head and noticed the pedal he was stepping on.The footboard was close to the bottom of the bed, and its surface was exactly the same as the ordinary footboard. Sima Lingyu slightly moved one side of the footboard, and the expected scene happened—the bed board opened from the gap.

Sima Lingyu leaned forward and looked down. There were several steps connecting to the bed, leading to a deeper place. It was very dark inside, and it was difficult to see clearly without lighting tools.That's all, let's find out again when I have free time, the left and right are in my own room.Sima Lingyu moved the pedal back to its original position.

On the second day, people from the Ministry of Rituals came to the Prince Concubine's Mansion, intending to explain to Sima Lingyu about the preparations for the wedding, saying that all procedures should be carried out in accordance with the etiquette system, and that the Qin Tianjian had decided to hold the wedding on the [-]th of next month.Sima Lingyu really didn't have the patience to listen to the lengthy arrangements of the people from the Ministry of Rites, so he called Steward Qi to discuss the specific matters with the people from the Ministry of Rites, and left by himself.Sima Lingyu didn't have much interest in this wedding in his heart, he did whatever he wanted, it was just a form for outsiders to see.

In the next few days, Sima Lingyu wandered around the mansion casually, getting familiar with the situation in the mansion, and would often chat with the servants casually.She knew that these lowest-level servants would be loyal to her if they showed some kindness.And at the critical moment, who knows how much energy they will have?

Ah Yue came to report that Ama and Er Niang would arrive in Beijing in three days.After going to the palace to meet the emperor and the empress dowager, he would come to the forehead to meet her.Sima Lingyu asked Steward Qi to tidy up and arrange a room in the main hall. When Ama and Er Niang arrived, they would live in it.It has been two months since she left Prince Dun's Mansion, and she misses Er Niang very much.

Prince Dun and his wife arrived in the capital in the early morning three days later. In the morning, they entered the palace to meet the emperor and empress dowager. When they left the palace, people sent by Sima Lingyu took them to the Prince Consort's Mansion.

Sima Lingyu was very happy to see Ama and Erniang, and hosted a banquet to welcome them.After the meal, Sima Lingyu led them to the prepared room.A Yue was watching outside the door.The family can finally have a good talk.

"Ama," Sima Lingyu knelt down facing Prince Dun, "Yu'er failed your expectations and failed to handle the matter well."

Prince Dun helped Sima Lingyu up, "Yu'er doesn't need to blame herself, the plan has not changed quickly, we will see what happens. Although you are not allowed to leave the capital, how can you know that it is not a blessing?"

"Does Ama have a new strategy?" Sima Lingyu looked at Prince Dun. Ama was really old, and her gray hair was already partly visible, especially on her forehead and temples.

"I don't know if the eldest princess has a deep friendship with you? If you can, make good use of the eldest princess as a pawn. Since she is used as a pawn by the empress dowager to contain you, then it is better to use the plan and use her own way to deal with her. After all, the eldest princess is her own flesh and blood." Prince Dun also heard that the eldest princess was not welcomed by the empress dowager. "The eldest princess behaves strangely, but she is not mentally abnormal. Now you have the closest relationship with her. You'd better figure out why she behaves like this."

Prince Dun stopped, looked at Sima Lingyu, and couldn't hide the regret in his eyes.Why is God so unfair, why would he refuse to give him a son after giving him so many daughters?If Yu'er was a man, how wonderful it would be. Not only would his bloodline continue, but if his revenge was avenged, Yu'er would justifiably ascend to the Ninth Five Supreme.

Sima Lingyu seemed to see what Prince Dun was thinking, and felt a little lost. Sometimes she also hated that she was not a man, so she could make up for Ama's regret.

"Ama, Yu'er and the eldest princess have not had much communication so far, but it is said that the eldest princess asked the empress dowager for this marriage. I think if she is really interested in me, it will not be difficult to please her." Sima Ling Yu is confident about this.She didn't know about her own advantages before, but after coming to Beijing, she understood that sometimes an extraordinary appearance is actually a powerful weapon.

"Yu'er, you have to be extra careful about something." Prince Dun looked at Sima Lingyu's handsome face, knowing that no woman could resist this kind of appearance. "You must not let the eldest princess discover your true identity. No matter how close she is to you, she is a member of the royal family."

Sima Lingyu nodded, and both Ama and Third Sister had instructed her to this point.

"It's fine if you are in Beijing now. After all, the news in the capital is better. Your third sister should get more information from Zhang Liao. And you should secretly make friends with powerful people and make plans for the future."

"Yu'er understands, Ama can rest assured. I will secretly expand my influence."

"One more thing. Your Fifth Sister has disappeared since you left Prince Dun's Mansion. Ama and your mother-in-law have been looking for it for a long time but failed. Since she has a marriage contract, I can only announce that she died of a sudden serious illness. Me and your mother-in-law Everyone thinks that your Fifth Sister may not want to marry to Hanguan, so she ran away. You also help to pay attention in the capital, and reply in time if there is any news. If she really doesn't want to return to the palace, it doesn't matter, as long as she is safe. "Prince Dun sighed, "Ama owes her in the end. Although she is not my own, she has called me Ama for so many years."

"Understood, Ama, I will definitely tell you any news." Sima Lingyu said, but he didn't think so in his heart.No matter what, she must protect Sister Yun and never let her go back to the palace.With Sister Yiyun's beauty, she will be arranged by Ama to marry again sooner or later.

Prince Dunn Fujin remained silent all this time, she looked at her Yu'er distressedly, feeling extremely worried.She thought differently from Prince Dun, she still hoped that Yu'er would be by her side.Yu'er is in the capital, if there is danger, what should I do!

Prince Dun glanced at Fujin, "Talk to Yu'er, didn't you say you had a lot to talk to Yu'er along the way?" After speaking, he turned and went out, leaving the mother and daughter alone in the room.
