C119

Lv Ruo was shocked: "Miss Mu Jing has an ordinary identity, no one would ever think of going to the inn to look for Miss Mu Jing. Young master, why do you ask?"

Why do you ask?

With how she had provoked Dongling Liusu yesterday, and the fact that they were close to the end of the meeting, it would be strange if Dongling Liusu had not made his move …

Last night, what she couldn't deny was that she had purposely provoked Dongling Liusu …

That day, when she was inside Mu Jing's room, looking down from the window, she could clearly see Dongling Liusu's gaze on her, which was filled with unconcealed emotions.

Thus, she tried to probe Mu Jing with her words.

Although Mu Jing looked calm and tranquil on the outside, she could guess what kind of torment she was enduring.

Since both sides had never been at odds with each other, why not … "Let's meet up. Open the window and say something bright. Who knows …"

What kind of difficulties would there be?

And so …

Then came the mockery from last night.

Mu Jing was a rare helper to her.

But it was also her …

In this scheming dynasty, there were only a few friends …

The only thing that she could do was to let her meet with the person she wanted to meet.

As for the results …

That wasn't something he could grasp …

"There are some things that cannot be explained with a few words. Go back and tell Guai Qi, she will be back when it's time."

Lv Ruo did not understand and wanted to ask further, but her young master had already turned around and entered the Seventh Prince's Mansion.

There was no other way, he could only listen to Su Jinruo's orders. Lv Ruo sighed and left.

Something was out of his expectations.

When Su Jinruo rushed to dinner, the Seventh Prince Shen Hancheng was unexpectedly not at his residence.

Asking about the reason, the mansion's butler only said that the Seventh Prince Shen Hancheng had been summoned by the Old Emperor and had never returned.

Yes, Shen Hancheng had been declared to be in the palace, and firmly received a scolding from the Old Emperor.

Inside the imperial study room, the Old Emperor's expression did not look good, his aged finger was pointing at the young man dressed in a big red black robe, his expression lazy between his brows, and angrily said: "Old Seven, if you continue to mess around like this and tangle with Su Jinruo, there will only be more and more gossip, at that time, how will you be able to inherit my noble ways?!"

The youth did not mind and said lazily, "The things This King has never cared about before, whoever wants to inherit it, whoever inherits it, have nothing to do with This King."

"Seventh Brother!"

"If you declare this king to be your disciple only because of this matter, then I will not be accompanying you."

Seeing that he was still so disobedient, Old Emperor could not help but say angrily: "Old Seven, don't think that just because you have the Pavilion of Death behind you that you can act so impudently in front of me. Don't tell me you are not afraid that I will flatten your Pavilion of Death?!"

Hearing this, Shen Hancheng slowly stepped forward with both hands resting on top of the Old Emperor's desk.

He stared into Old Emperor's eyes and continued with a cold smile, "This king wants to see, you … How This King's Tower Kill Pavilion was razed to the ground. "

Not considering whether or not he had the power to raze the Pavilion of Death to the ground, even if he did, that was Shen Hancheng's organization.

Seventh Brother, did you think that you would be merciful to me by taking advantage of me, so why did you come and anger me?!

Old Emperor stared fixedly at the young man who had grown up.

"Seventh brother, don't be willful, you are our child, our Seventh brother, you are the royal family, and that Su Jinruo, he is the direct son of the prime minister, the person of the prime minister, you … You can't be close friends, and you can't be. There's not a shred of relationship between them, do you understand? "

The voice of the Old Emperor clearly became gentler as the light in Shen Hancheng's eyes flickered and his voice became colder.

"You have no right to interfere with this king's relationship with him. Since you fear the prime minister, quickly hand over the last task this king owes you. This king will remove it for you." When this king leaves the palace, if you can't meet this king, maybe... You can live a few more years. "

Hearing that, Old Emperor's face became even angrier, "You unfilial son! We are warning you, if you still have any ambiguous actions with Su Jinruo, we will not touch you, but we will kill him. At that time, don't blame Royal Father for being merciless! "

Many years ago, for the sake of his escape, he had killed two palace maids. Whether it was the eunuchs or the maids, he had not spared a single one of them.

Article 69. Life … He had never been soft-hearted before, let alone a mere Su Jinruo's life?!

He was just afraid …

Because of this action, the gradually maturing youth would pull the gap between the two of them …

The deeper one went, the more …

The scene he was afraid of...

Then, we will eat together with Su Jinruo. It's just that you're too lonely, if Old Seven is willing, we can share a meal together on a daily basis. Su Jinruo is not someone that you can accept, but Seventh Brother, you, definitely cannot be like him. With the dragon and the yang, you must not forget what your Consort Mother has told you, Seventh Brother! "

The more he listened to Old Emperor's words, the wider the curve of Shen Hancheng's lips became.

Shen Hancheng's eyes turned cold as he impolitely said: "You don't have to worry about this duke's matters. Consort Mother's words don't even need to be conveyed by you, in case this Consort Mother's words get tainted."

Seemingly unable to communicate anymore, Shen Hancheng turned around and walked away.

Towards the only child he had ever loved in his life, his cold words made Old Emperor angry.

However, the moment Old Emperor said Shen Hancheng's name, he suddenly started coughing violently, and was unable to utter any other words.

Eunuch Fu hastily called out to Imperial Physician Xuan and patted Old Emperor's back with one hand in an attempt to ease the heart-wrenching cough.

The Old Emperor opened his eyes with much difficulty and watched Shen Hancheng's leaving figure. Deep in his experienced eyes, there was a deep sense of anticipation.

He was looking forward to seeing someone in front of him. He was looking forward to seeing him and giving him a concerned glance.

In the end...

They only saw the vicious youth's departing footsteps falter slightly, yet he still didn't turn around to look back as he unhesitatingly stepped out of the royal study.

When Qian Yi saw him coming out, she immediately followed his footsteps without asking him anything.

The rain gradually lessened, and the drops of rain that fell upon the branches lost some of their strength. It did not seem like the torrential rain as it pressed down on the branches.

On the white jade steps, there was a woman wearing a light pink lily-white long dress. She wore a silk sash embroidered with lotus flowers around her waist.

Three thousand strands of hair were tied up, and a golden hairpin was stuck in her hair. A smile was on her face, and anyone who took a glance at her would feel that she was extremely gentle, so gentle that it touched their hearts.

A pair of slender hands held onto a woman dressed in a big red palace dress beside him. There was reverence in her words.

"What mother said is right. I will definitely pass on mother's words to the prince. I hope mother can be at ease."

The empress was dignified, but her phoenix eyes held a hint of apology.

She glanced at the woman, then patted the back of her smooth hands and said, "Recently, Jiu'er's body has been a bit weak. Now, she is suffering from a cold. "After returning to the manor, you must rest well. Do not harm your body. If Qin'er falls, then there will be no one by her side."

Lin Lanqin's lips split into an extremely faint smile, but it was tinged with worry. "Mother, you are too serious. Currently, the prince was very sick, and others were not allowed to enter the prince's house. Only when the medicine was given to the king could I see the prince. Imperial Physician, if you don't let me serve you in close proximity, how would I dare to take credit in front of Imperial Mother? "

"Why can't I take credit for it?" The empress was angered. "It's just that the imperial physician doesn't want you serving me closely, isn't Qin'er doing it herself? Decocting medicine for Jiu'er?"

Qin'er, you are the one who handled all the matters regarding the meal. Be careful and careful, afraid that something unclean will increase your son's condition. Your mother is very clear about this and it is as clear as a mirror. "

Lin Lanqin's eyes suddenly reddened, "Muhou …"

The empress patted the back of her hand and said softly, "Imperial Mother knows that in the past two years, it has been Jiu'er who has ignored you, Jiu'er who cherished the person before him. One day, he will see your good fortune, and if he gets sick, he will no longer hide from you, and you won't see him."

Although some words were hurtful, they were capable of leaving a trace of hope in others.

Lin Lanqin slightly bowed. She looked at the empress and said, "Your highness has a refined and gentle personality, and is at peace with the world. I know that by marrying him, I caused him to suffer some rumors and slander that he shouldn't have endured, and even made Your highness … Be displeased by Royal Father. It is my fault for causing your highness to leave the court and give up on your ambition. I don't dare to have any complaints. As long as your highness can be happy, I am willing to do anything … "

A flash of light passed through her sharp phoenix eyes, but it was fleeting. The empress lowered her body to help her up.

"Good boy, good boy. When Ol 'Nine can accept you, Mother will make sure that he is the one to personally speak to his Royal Father about righting you and pampering you for the rest of your life!"

Lin Lanqin was originally Lin Lan Xin's older sister, the eldest daughter of the Tai Bei Manor.

His identity and background, were all the same as the Ninth Prince's Shen Fan.

That day at the palace banquet, Lin Lanqin, the beautiful woman, danced to the heavens, allowing the Old Emperor to appreciate her.

Marry her.

Lin Lanqin did not choose from him, and his choice of words, was Ninth Prince Shen Fan.

The Queen laughed merrily as the Old Emperor nodded in agreement.

Everything was within his expectations.

But...

Ninth Prince Shen Fan had colluded with the Grand Commandant in private and secretly colluded with the court officials to scheme for the throne.

Previously, Ninth Prince Shen Fan did have many dealings with the Grand Commandant, but it was only because they liked each other and had no other reason for doing so.

Furthermore, due to Lin Lanqin's attitude towards her, on the day of the marriage, she told everyone in Old Emperor without hesitation that the person she wanted to marry, was the Ninth Prince, Shen Fan.

There was indeed something fishy about the plot between the two incidents.

With regards to this, the Old Emperor was furious.

Someone was ordered to investigate the matter thoroughly.

The Grand Commandant's power could restrain a part of the Prime Minister Su. Its uniqueness was such that the Old Emperor would not dare to act rashly.

Fortunately, the results of the investigation were merely rumors created by others. The rain had gone through the clear sky, and they were treated like floating clouds.

But when the Old Emperor became suspicious of him, Ninth Prince Shen Fan could detect it.

And so … Write a letter and ask to leave the court.

The next letter mentioned that the Ninth Wangfei Lin Lanqin was too jealous and had been demoted to a secondary wife.

All Old Emperor s were willing.

Thus, Ninth Prince Shen Fan had not even attended any of the palace banquets before he had retired.

What happened two years ago, the truth behind it was that even he, who was the culprit, could not figure it out …

Who would know all of this?

Right now, the prince had faded out of sight from the world and according to his father's words, the Royal Father had already dispelled all of his suspicions towards the prince, and he himself could be considered as …

The moon was bright when the clouds opened.

Even if the Prince requested for him to stand at attention now, the Royal Father would probably not hold anything back.

Lin Lanqin bowed towards the empress. "This one thanks mother."

Lin Lanqin got up and said, "It's getting late. The empress had always wanted to send me out of the palace, but this empress kept on chattering with the empress, which resulted in the time for the prince to boil the medicine. This empress dowager is still in the palace, and this empress should really be beating me up!"

Before the empress could reply, someone began to pace over.

Lin Lanqin looked back.

That person's expression was cold, and when compared to his black and red body, he exuded a domineering aura that made it difficult for people to look at him directly.

That pair of indifferent eyes that seemed to be cold and white opened glanced in his direction. A careless gaze caused others to be unable to shift their gaze away. The light from those eyes captivated their soul.
