It was still dawn when Yu Ling Jing woke up. This was not only because of the imperial court, but because of his years of military life. Yu Ling Jing had already gotten used to waking up early in the morning, and even if he didn't, he would still wake up at this time to train.
Before the imperial court, Yu Ling Jing placed the letter from Qing Mo Xue to Qi Wan County on the table.
When he reached the door, he looked back. In his dreams, he saw a cute and flirtatious woman. The corner of her mouth raised into a faint smile as she gently closed the door.
It had to be said that the Qi Province of a wangfei really was much lazier than before. In the past, when he was at home or in the residence of the Minister of the Left, he would wake up early every morning to greet his parents.
Since he had entered the Residence of Regent, he had been able to wake up naturally from his sleep.
As the Regent's Estate existed independently outside the palace, Yu Lingjing's mother was no longer present. The Emperor had only called her over once in a while. In addition to the Prince, everyone else in the estate were servants.
In the imperial court, a middle-aged man wearing a dragon crown and nine dragons' golden silk robes slowly walked to the side of the throne and sat down. The officials all loudly shouted, "Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
"Everyone, please rise." Yu Lingxuan, who was sitting on the dragon throne, waved his arm and shouted. The rest of the group immediately stood up.
"Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival? May I know how our beloved officials are preparing to pass this time? " In truth, he didn't have any other intentions. But, his ministers were usually too full of flattery and suspicions, to the point that even the simplest of words from him would be read by them for a long time.
Minister, are you looking at me? I'm looking at you? He didn't know what to say. Afraid that he had accidentally said something wrong, or perhaps he had said too much? In order to be safe, it was better not to say anything.
"Oh? "Even our beloved officials have to ponder over how to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival for so long?" Yu Lingxuan, who was sitting on the dragon throne, sneered. Were his subordinates usually scheming and scheming? How could they please each other so easily? However, when they were asked for advice, they all backed off and remained silent.
"Reporting to your majesty, every year, this old official of Mid-Autumn will eat a reunion dinner with his family and admire the moon. That's all." The speaker was the Minister of the Left, the foster father of Qi, the Lord Regent's father-in-law. With a simple sentence from the Minister of the Left, his true thoughts were revealed, which meant that to him, talent was the most important thing.
"Minister Zuo, you are so elegant. How fortunate." Yu Lingxuan faintly said.
Seeing that someone had started the conversation, the other ministers stood up to speak as well.
"Reporting to Your Majesty. This humble subject likes to bring the whole family to the Drunken Immortal Tavern to have a feast. "
"Reporting to Your Majesty. This humble subject will spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with my colleagues. "
Report to the emperor. This humble subject will go back to my hometown and spend Mid-Autumn with my parents. "
"..."
Humph. This group of crafty and cunning officials didn't say a word when I asked you all about it. Now that someone has started it, their mouths are talking nonstop like a flood.
After all the officials had stopped their discussion, Yu Lingxuan glanced at Yu Lingjing, who stood silently at the foot of the hall, and asked with a smile, "I wonder how your royal brother will spend this Mid-Autumn Night?"
No expression could be seen on Yu Lingjing's handsome and cold face. He cupped his hands together and said calmly, "Reporting to Your Majesty." This humble subject will enter the palace to meet you for a feast, just like in previous years. "
"Alright. His royal brother had just gotten married, so he brought his royal sister with him to the palace. "It's bustling with noise and excitement." In the depths of his heart, he rather liked this imperial sister of Qi Wanli's. He hoped that her empress would be able to walk around with her and learn from her as a wife, and not be so scheming and scheming all day long.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. This subject obeys. " Although Yu Lingjing said this, in his heart, he didn't want Qi Wan County to enter the palace.
He was afraid that she would cause trouble for him at any moment. Even if Qi Wanli was obedient, there was still the empress and the crown prince in the palace, and they were scheming against each other. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to protect his own woman.
However, the Mid-Autumn Festival was originally a reunion day. Ever since mufei had passed away, his relatives had gradually dwindled. Now, only his imperial brother Yu Lingxuan and his family remained.
However, he couldn't refuse this Mid-Autumn Festival. He couldn't leave any clues for the Crown Prince.
The crown prince, who was standing on the other side, didn't say anything. He glanced at the Regent with a sinister gaze. The corner of his mouth curled up into an evil grin.
"Proclaim my will. On this year's Mid-Autumn Festival's night, any official above the third rank may enter the palace to attend our royal family's feast. " As soon as Yu Lingxuan finished speaking, the crowd of officials shouted:
"This subject and others thank Your Majesty for his grace. Long live the Emperor. "
"Withdraw." A sharp and thin voice rang out.
"..."
At the same time, when Qi Wanxian got up, she saw the letter that Yu Lingjing had placed on the table:
My junior sister is well, since I have already accepted Liu Qi as my disciple, I hope that she will teach me more when I am not here. In addition, please in the Mid-Autumn Night must be careful of the crown prince, senior sister Mo Xue.
Could Junior Sister please be careful of the crown prince on the Mid-Autumn Night? What did she mean? What did she mean? Could it be the Crown Prince? When he thought of this, Qi Wan County deeply frowned, and tightly grasped the letter in his hand with a dignified expression.
In the evening of the next day, a black silhouette swiftly flashed into the Crown Prince's study.
"We must get rid of him tonight." With a gloomy voice that sounded like it came from hell, a young man wearing a yellow dragon robe played with the two walnut-sized iron balls in his hands. With a gloomy voice that sounded like it came from hell, a young man dressed in a yellow dragon suit played with the two walnut-sized iron balls in his hands.
"This subordinate understands." "Please rest assured, Master."
The yellow clothed man waved his arm, and the black clothed man turned around and left. The yellow robed man sneered. He looked at his palm and muttered to himself, "Tonight?" Yu Ling Jing. You can't get out of my hands.
In the inner hall of the Regent's Manor.
Yu Ling Jing straightened his clothes, then looked at Qi Lan and Liu Qi who were dressing themselves in front of the mirror and asked, "Are you ready?"
"My lord. Wait a minute. "It's going to be ready soon." Liu Qi giggled.
Qi Wanjun sat in front of the bronze mirror, her mind completely focused on her senior sister's letter.
Since Senior Sister has left this letter, I presume Senior Sister must have found out something? Where would the Crown Prince make his move? The security of the manor was tight, and the crown prince would never do it openly. This way, both sides would suffer.
It was impossible for the palace to hold a banquet. Since the emperor had ordered all officials above the third rank to attend, then the imperial guards would definitely be unable to escape. The crown prince was not a retard.
The only thing left to do was to go to the palace. Since it was a family banquet, those attending the banquet would not bring that many guards. Thus, this was the best time to assassinate them. On the way or on the way back?
"Well, my lord. Come and see how beautiful the wangfei is, right? " Liu Qi's voice brought Qi Lun back to reality.
Qi Dian looked at his reflection in the copper mirror, and started to wave the hairpin around. He became even more lively, and his face became even more beautiful and limpid after being touched by the rouge and cosmetic powder.
The corner of her mouth curled up in a faint smile. She turned her beautiful body around, making Yu Ling Jing dumbstruck.
This woman's skin was not only creamy, but also beautiful, like a fairy. Now that this beauty had become his consort, Yu Lingjing felt an indescribable joy and pride in her heart.
"My wife is as shocking as the heavens today. She must be proud of the imperial harem." Since she was young, she had always been controlled by beautiful women, and she was afraid that others would make fun of her beauty the most.
"Your Highness is too serious." About that, it's getting late, let's hurry up and enter the palace. " As Qi Wan said this, she took the lead and walked out. Liu Qi secretly ran in front of Yu Ling Jing, her face full of smiles as she whispered, "Your highness." "I'm sorry, but you should hurry up and chase after her."
Yu Ling Jing glanced at this little girl, and quickly caught up to Qi Wanli.
She couldn't let her husband see through her, so she pretended to be calm and maintained her smile. It wasn't until she arrived at the entrance of the palace and got off the carriage that she could finally relax.
Since they were safe on their way here, would the Crown Prince make his move on the way back?
"My wife. "What are you thinking about?" Yu Ling Jing inadvertently noticed Qi Wan County's absent-minded look, and asked. Qi Wan's eyes flashed, and laughed: "Nothing? It's just that the carriage was too rushed just now, so I got a little dizzy. "
"It's good that you're fine. "Let's go." Yu Lingjing spoke indifferently. A thick and warm big hand tightly held the small, thin, and cold hand of Qi Wan County as she walked forward. Qi Wan's small face was brimming with a happy smile.
"The wangfei is really like glue that can enrich the bystanders." A second rank official, accompanied by his wife, said with a smile when he saw the once arrogant and aloof Regent. He was so considerate in front of his wife and did not care about the many court ladies who came and went, even holding hands with her.
Yu Ling Jing didn't pay attention to the official as he continued walking, but Qi Wan's face was as red as a ripe apple. She tried to break away from Yu Ling Jing's hand, but was held back by Yu Ling Jing, who held her wrist tighter. When someone said this again, Yu Lingjing smiled back at them.
Qi Wan County didn't have any way to break free, but it couldn't break free. He wanted to find a hole to hide in, but he found that the palace was covered in glazed road stone tiles, and there was nowhere he could hide?
Helpless, Qi Wanli could only smile along with him, but her smile was even uglier than crying.
