The Legitimate Daughter Empress - C195
Chapter 194 – Hiding Everything Too Deep
“Little sister, is this the Queen of Imperial Consort Yu?” Ling Wang took a long time to recognize him.
“That’s me. Ling Wang has good eyesight indeed.” Lin Yuyue smiled beautifully.
“Please come in Imperial Concubine, it’s not convenient to talk outside.” Ling Wang thought that Qin Luofei was the only one, but with the addition of Lin Yuyue, he swallowed his words.
“How did Concubine Qin find the time to come here today?”
“Come out to pray for Buddha, and also come out to see you.” Because of the relationship with Lin Yuyue, it was not good for her to ask him about things.
Lin Yuyue sat at the side, quietly drinking her tea. She did not say anything, she did not have any topic of conversation with Ling Wang.
“Why don’t we go to the back garden together? It would be better to drink tea and chat there.” Ling Wang tried to think of a way to keep Lin Yuyue away so that he could talk about some private matters with Qin Luofei.
“Garden? I would actually like to see what the Ling Mansion’s garden looks like, and the difference between it and the palace. ” Lin Yuyue was extremely interested in this.
Ling Wang brought them to the back garden. The flowers were in full bloom and butterflies were flying in the air.
“So beautiful!”
Lin Yuyue was already intoxicated by the scene before her. After all, she was at the border before entering the palace, so it was impossible for her to have such a beautiful scenery there.
Afterwards, at her adoptive father’s home, all she wanted to do was to enter the palace to see the Emperor Ming and to not have the heart to admire the flowers and plants. Now that the beautiful scenery before her coupled with her beautiful mood, she could no longer control herself.
Lin Yuyue walked over first, while the Ling Wang and Qin Luofei slowed their pace.
“Brother, what happened to Princess Tranquil?” Qin Luofei said with a low voice.
“This… Little sister, it’s better for you to give up. I’ve already done my best, but I still haven’t found anything. ”
Ling Wang knew that if Qin Luofei knew about this, he would definitely feel terrible in his heart, but he would still have to face what he had to face.
Qin Luofei nodded helplessly, and said with a beseeching tone: “That’s right, Big Brother, there’s one more thing I need your help with. Previously, I had a servant who was unable to enter the palace with me, but now that she is alone and has no one to rely on, I hope that you, big brother, will be able to take her in with you.
“Of course you can. As long as you ask, I will be able to take a few in.” Ling Wang felt heartache when he saw his sister become much thinner.
“Her name is Zi Er. When the time comes, I will call her to come find you.” Qin Luofei was very grateful. This way, she would feel at ease even if she returned to the palace.
The only thing she could not let go of was the Emperor Yun.
According to Zi Yuan, she might have been killed by those people …
However, Qin Luofei still thought in the best direction. If the Emperor Ming had already been eliminated, he wouldn’t be this uneasy right now.
So Qin Luofei still believed that the Emperor Yun did not die.
He just didn’t know where he was right now. He just wanted to see him again for the rest of his life.
“What are you talking about? Sister Luo Fei, hurry up and come here! There are many beautiful butterflies! ” Lin Yuyue was someone who did not have any schemes in mind, and this was also the reason why Qin Luofei was willing to be friends with her.
“Is she reliable?” Ling Wang looked at Lin Yuyue and asked.
Qin Luofei nodded, and said: “The things that happened in Huishang Hall this time were things she thought of. She is considered my good sister in the palace.”
Only then did Ling Wang relax and said: “When little sister is in the palace, you have to be careful in everything.”
Although there were a lot of flowers in the palace, it wasn’t any more than the number of butterflies outside the palace. Maybe it was because the imperial palace was sealed for many years, so there weren’t any butterflies dancing in the palace.
Qin Luofei was dancing with Lin Yuyue amidst the flowers. Ling Wang’s mood improved a lot when he saw Qin Luofei’s happy expression.
They returned to the palace in the afternoon after the Ling Mansion ate.
Because of their relationship, Zi Yuan did not dare to reveal herself until after Qin Luofei and Lin Yuyue had left the Ling Mansion.
“You are the former servant Zi’er of the Concubine Qin?” Ling Wang weighed her from head to toe. He remembered that he had seen this girl before in the palace, but he couldn’t immediately recall.
“That’s right, I thank Ling Wang for being willing to accept me in.” The reason why Zi Yuan changed his name to Zi’er was because he was afraid that Ling Wang would think of something.
After all, the current Ling Wang was Emperor Ming’s most beloved subject.
“There’s no need to be polite, just stay in the Ling Mansion. If there’s a chance in the future, I’ll send you to the palace.” Ling Wang returned to his room after he finished speaking.
He was lost in thought by himself. Why did Qin Luofei’s maidservant come to find her only now?
Moreover, she had already been in the palace for a long time. How long had it been since a maid contacted her?
Although he still believed that his sister wouldn’t do anything to harm him.
However, he didn’t understand Zi Er, so it was better to be cautious.
When Qin Luofei and Lin Yuyue returned to the Imperial Palace, the first thing Emperor Ming did was find Lin Yuyue and ask him about the offering.
The reason he agreed to let her leave the palace was largely because he wanted to use her to lure out the Emperor Yun.
“Love Consort will go to worship and work hard today. You must rest well tonight.” When Emperor Ming came to the Jade Phoenix Hall, he doted on Lin Yuyue a lot.
“Your majesty, to pray for you is not tiring at all.” Lin Yuyue smiled sweetly. It was enough for him to have Emperor Ming’s care in this life.
“Nothing special happened outside today?” Emperor Ming probed.
“No, I went with Concubine Qin to Ling Mansion, the flowers in the backyard of Ling Mansion is really eye-opening.” Everything that was happening outside the palace seemed exceptionally fresh. Perhaps it was because of the long time she had spent in the palace that Lin Yuyue began to reminisce about the life outside the palace. But who knew that she would fall in love with this man?
“Ling Mansion? Did you guys go to Ling Mansion to see this? Did Concubine Qin say anything to Ling Wang? ” This was what the Emperor Ming was most concerned about.
Imperial Consort Yu thought for a moment, then said: “Nothing much, we returned after eating. It’s just that I felt that there were people following us on the way to Ling Mansion.”
“Is that so? Did you see who it was? ” Emperor Ming was stunned, and quickly asked.
“Your majesty, why are you suddenly so interested in us going out today?” Lin Yuyue had never doubted the Emperor Ming.
However, he always asked her about what had happened today, so she couldn’t help but think about it. Could it be that he agreed to let her leave with Qin Luofei because he wanted to know about her situation?
Emperor Ming hugged Imperial Consort Yu’s waist and said: “No, I was just casually asking. If there’s nothing else, rest well tonight.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.” Imperial Consort Yu looked at Emperor Ming’s back, and sank into deep thought.
Emperor Ming had left the Jade Phoenix Hall, and this Ling Wang had a sibling relationship with Qin Luofei. Emperor Ming had absolute trust in the Ling Wang, but whenever he looked at Qin Luofei, the way he looked at her, he would always feel that she was very different. Her eyes were sometimes gentle, sometimes full of resentment.
Currently, in the Imperial Palace, Qin Luofei was the only person that the Emperor Yun cared about. Only by leaving her would she be able to see the Emperor Yun. This was also the true reason why the Emperor Ming kept wanting to let Qin Luofei live.
After Emperor Ming left the Jade Phoenix Hall, he could not help but walk to the Huishang Hall. He did not know too much about this woman. Emperor Ming stood at the entrance of the Huishang Hall for a long time, and then the eunuch beside him stepped forward and asked.
“Your majesty, isn’t it Concubine Qin Xuan who went out to welcome Your Majesty?”
“There’s no need. I’m just here to take a look.” Emperor Ming turned and walked back.
, who was not far away, saw this scene. He thought that Qin Luofei would once again be favored over, but he couldn’t help but feel a little curious when he saw the Emperor Ming turn around and leave.
Why didn’t he go in? This woman is ready with aphrodisiac.
Just as Emperor Ming left, Qin Luofei and Ju Hua walked out.
“Master Leng, what are you looking at?” Xi Hua stared at Leng Mu and asked curiously.
Leng Mu looked at Qin Luofei and said, “Concubine Qin just left.”
“Is that so? It was just right to leave. Why do I feel that you are paying close attention to my Huishang Hall’s every move? ” Qin Luofei was not stupid.
Leng Mu’s repeated appearances had to make her doubt him.
The reason why he had chosen to trust them previously was because he had drunk the poison, but nothing had happened.
They did not reveal anything, but because Leng Mu was paying too much attention to his, Qin Luofei had already sensed it.
“Concubine Qin, you’re thinking too much. I have to pass by Huishang Hall every day and I have to meet you more often as well. It was not intentional, furthermore, Huishang Hall has nothing worth paying attention to. ” Leng Mu, who was speaking, felt his heart ache.
Emperor Ming favored her again, but she didn’t expect this woman to use aphrodisiac.
However, Qin Luofei didn’t know what Leng Mu was thinking in his heart, and even more so didn’t know that he was still brooding over the matter of the aphrodisiac.
“Is that so? Maybe. Fortunately concubine Luo has you to persevere and deliver medicine everyday, so it’s been hard on you. It’s very late. Doctor Leng, quickly go back and rest. ” Qin Luofei instructed the maid beside his to close the door.
Wasn’t she waiting for Emperor Ming to turn the tables when she opened the door? Leng Mu had a face full of suspicion.
Ever since she was pregnant, from the time she gave birth to her own child, to when she was favoured by the Emperor Ming, Leng Mu had always had an indescribable feeling in his heart.
This woman always reminded him of her dead body.
In the dead of night, a figure appeared in the royal study, rapidly flying on the rooftop.
The man in black lifted the tile and confirmed that there was no one inside before entering through the main entrance.
The imperial study was filled with reports and some documents. The man in black started to flip through them.
The Emperor Ming hid everything too deeply, and only by using the time of the night would they have the chance to understand what was related to him.
Knowing yourself and knowing your enemy is a hundred battles with a hundred victories. This was also the reason why the black clothed man came here. He had infiltrated the palace for so long just for the sake of finding the Emperor Ming’s weak tendons.
However, after entering the palace for so long, he had yet to discover anything. Now that he wanted to bring him down again, it seemed rather difficult.
The man in black flipped through the memorials on the table. It was all a harmonious place, without any rebellious reports. It seemed like it would be impossible to find an official who could fight against the Emperor Ming.
He needed to develop a new power in the palace, and only then would he be able to overthrow him.
At that moment, the door to the royal study suddenly opened.
“Your majesty, it’s already so late. Do you still want to continue reviewing the imperial reports? The dragon is more important, Your Majesty. ” Young Eunuch who was following the Emperor Ming lit up the room for the Emperor Ming.
“You can go back now. I alone will suffice.” Emperor Ming ordered Young Eunuch to retreat.
“Your Majesty, I’ll go make you some tea.”
“No need, hurry up and leave.” Emperor Ming said impatiently.
Seeing that, the Young Eunuch hurriedly retreated, in case he angered the Emperor.
Emperor Ming flipped open the imperial reports, how did he sense that someone had moved it?
He immediately got up and looked around. The man in black was currently hanging from the beam, holding his breath.
