Allure of the World - Chapter 93
[Chapter 93]
Ling Chen asked: “Have you found any connection between him and the palace?”
“No, but when the emperor was in Qingyun Mountain, someone saw that Fan Xing was also in Qingyun Mountain that day.”
“Qingyun Mountain?”
Ling Chen’s eyes were cold, “Continue to investigate. Don’t disturb anyone.”
“Yes. Also, Concubine Ling’s two girls and a servant are still alive. They were hidden in Duzhuang by Lan Jingtian. Did they enter the palace?”
“What did they say about the fire?”
“They were awakened by the sound of the explosion, and when they woke up, the fire had already sealed the door. Li Xia said that someone threw a lot of bombs into the courtyard of Changxin Palace. The door of Changxin Palace was locked from the outside, and there was no way to get out. Someone deliberately put Concubine Ling to death.”
“Who would be so bold!” Ling Chen stood there with his hands behind his back.
“What do you think?” Ling Chen turned around and asked Huo Jingyun.
“Weichen attaches more importance to evidence, guessing is only one direction. There is insufficient evidence, and Weichen dare not speak falsely.” Huo Jingyun had no answer.
“Let the living girls and servants from Changxin Palace enter the palace. You should step back first.” Huo Jingyun was sent away, Ling Chen whispered a few times in Yang Shu’s ear, and Yang Shu hurried out.
After a while, an old imperial doctor entered the emperor’s study, with a gray beard and a spirited spirit. After entering the study, he knelt on the ground.
“Doctor Gu, let me take a look, does the medicine still work?” The
doctor knelt there, ready to give the emperor a pulse.
“Give a seat.” Ling Chen instructed Yang Shu.
Doctor Gu was not polite, he sat down and took his pulse respectfully.
After a while, he nodded at the emperor.
“When there is no accident or failure?” Ling Chen asked, his face darkening.
“How can it be a child’s play, unless the emperor takes the antidote.” Dr. Gu answered with a kowtow.
“Okay, you can step back.” Ling Chen’s face became sharp.
He stood in front of the window for a long time, until Yangshu called him: “Your Majesty, do you want to flip the brand today?”
“Return to Linhua Hall.” He said lightly.
At the third watch, Ling Chen returned to Linhua Hall, Lan Ling was already asleep, frowning slightly, long eyelashes covered a circle of shadows, and there seemed to be tears in the corners of his eyes.
He stood in front of the bed and looked at her for a long time, then went to his coat and lay down against her.
She seemed to have touched his waist, but as before, she approached him affectionately, put her arms around him, and pressed her tender white legs on his legs recklessly.
Her sleeping appearance has always been like this, and only she dares to be so presumptuous.
Ling Chen’s heart warmed, and he stretched out his arms to embrace her.
On the second day, the emperor gave Wang Kang Palace to Lan Ling.
Wanghang Palace is very close to Linhua Palace. It is a small palace in the harem. It is located in the southeast corner of Linhua Palace.
Ling Shuang came over early in the morning, “Sister-in-law Ling, Ling Shuang will help you move today!”
“There is nothing to move, I’ll just go over there.” Lan Ling said to Ling Shuang with a smile.
“That’s hard to say. There are a lot of good things in Linhua Palace. Sister-in-law Ling can take it directly when she sees it!”
Lan Ling smiled and said, “What do I want his things for!”
Pearl took Lan Ling into the Wanghang Palace.
Entering the door is a small garden. After an empty yard is the main hall. There is a small garden behind the main hall. There are east and west side halls on both sides, and Xiangxuan is on the south, for summer living. The front porch of the main hall and the two side halls are connected with the back porch of Xiangxuan to form a courtyard.
There are a few Xifu Begonias in the garden, which have already produced many coral-red fruits, and with the green leaves that have been exposed to the wind, it is really gratifying.
A row of laurel trees was newly transplanted outside the wall, with prosperous flowers, clusters of golden yellow interspersed among the leaves, fragrant and fragrant. When you hear it from a distance, you will be fascinated and intoxicated.
The back garden of the main hall is full of jujube trees. It is autumn now, and it is full of red dates. The scenery is pleasant and it is a rare beauty.
Lan Ling likes this small yard very much.
There were two girls and two eunuchs kneeling in the courtyard.
“Niangniang, this is the knowledge book and ink painting that will serve Niangniang in the future. These are the servants Zhang Dong and Liu Qian.” Pearl introduced to Lan Ling.
Pearl arranged the affairs of Wangshang Palace and left.
At noon, the Ministry of Internal Affairs brought a lot of clothes and utensils.
Lan Ling and Ling Shuang had been sitting in the Xiangxuan at the southern end of the yard, watching the people outside.
A group of people entered the door. Lan Ling looked up and saw that the one in front was Wen Heng, Concubine Yi Gui, and there were three gorgeously dressed beauties in the back, who should also be the emperor’s concubine.
Lan Ling looked at Ling Shuang, “Are these all Ling Chen’s wives?”
“Uh, yes.”
“I don’t want to see them. Can you go out and let them go?” Lan Ling said to Ling Shuang.
“Okay, I’ll say you’re not feeling well. You can lie down on this couch for a while.”
Ling Shuang walked out, “All sisters-in-law, are you here?”
“Princess, where is Concubine Ling?” Concubine Yi asked.
“Sister-in-law Ling felt unwell and fell asleep after taking the medicine.”
“What happened to her?” a person behind her asked loudly.
Lan Ling looked up, but it was Ling Chen, and a bunch of people followed behind him.
The yard was crowded with people, and it became lively for a while.
“Brother Huang, Sister Ling didn’t sleep well last night and has a headache.” Ling Shuang replied.
“Didn’t sleep well?” Ling Chen was startled. She slept very well last night. Her legs were on his body and her arms were on his chest. She slept soundly. She was still asleep when he left in the morning. .
“Where is she?”
“There are too many people in the main hall, she is in Xiangxuan.” The
emperor looked at Wen Heng, Liu Hui, Jing Concubine, Yu Fei, “Heng’er, you are inconvenient, we are moving here today, you are here. What are you doing here? Go back!” Ling Chen said lightly.
“Your Majesty, the concubine wants to come over to see Concubine Ling and see if I need help,” Wen Heng looked at the Emperor.
“Let’s go, don’t go to Sanssouci Palace in the future, Concubine Ling is recovering from illness and doesn’t like the fun.” Ling Chen’s face turned cold.
Everyone went out, but Wen Heng stood there motionless, with tears in his eyes.
“Are you blaming me for her?” She asked Ling Chen in a low voice. She told Ling Chen yesterday that she didn’t want Lan Ling to live in Ling Chen’s bedroom, but she didn’t expect Lan Ling to move to Sanssouci Palace today, he had her in his heart.
But his attitude just now was clearly blaming her.
Ling Chen stepped forward and held her in his arms, “How can I blame you, I don’t want you to walk around.”
“Then you accompany me for lunch, I want to have lunch with you.” Wen Heng behave in a spoiled manner.
Lan Ling stood up and walked out of the Xiangxuan slowly.
She didn’t like Concubine Yi, and she didn’t like it the first time she saw it.
“Ling Chen, are you here?” Lan Ling rubbed his eyes and walked over slowly.
She saluted none of them.
Wen Heng looked at her and frowned. In the past, when Lan Ling saw her, he still had a good face, but now he just nodded to her.
“Is the emperor here for lunch? Today is the first meal at Sanssouci Palace, Zhishu, is it the chef’s meal?”
“Yes, the maiden, the lunch was given by the emperor.” The two girls and the eunuch were still kneeling on the ground.
Lan Ling has lost his appetite for a long time, and today he feels like he wants to eat.
“Heng’er, go back first.” The emperor’s hand was taken off Wen Heng’s shoulder.
Wen Heng pressed his right hand to his heart, turned and walked out.
