After the maid took back the medicine, Zhaobi asked the servants to cut the medicine, and then he fed the medicine to Concubine Qian and drank it.

Ling Zifei watched all this from the sidelines, and felt that it was inconvenient to stay here, "She may wake up at any time, so just watch over her." Then she stood up and walked out.

"Respectfully send off the Empress Dowager..." A group of servants crawled behind them. If the Queen Mother's master hadn't come in time, their master might have died long ago. It would be a matter of losing his head!Because the queen mother saved them from this disaster, she was also grateful.

The next day, Ling Zifei had just finished his breakfast when Tao Ruo hurried into the inner hall, "Master, according to Tao Ruo's inquiries today, it seems that Concubine Qian woke up once yesterday, and...and said something Nonsense, I never woke up after that, the eunuchs and guards in this palace are all rumoring whether Concubine Qian has been poisoned!"

"Being bewitched? She..." I wanted to say that Concubine Qian couldn't be bewitched, but after thinking about it, I felt wrong. Since the rumors in the palace are so happy, there must be someone who spread rumors, who can do this in the palace. , I am afraid that he is not a simple person.Then in this case, one thing more is worse than one thing less, and it will be over if you open your eyes and close your eyes. As long as you don't have anything to do with yourself, it doesn't matter even if you have a falling out.

Tao Ruo didn't know what the master was wondering about, so she continued, "I heard that Concubine Qian's father is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials in the court, and he has close contacts with Prime Minister Zuo in private."

Hearing Tao Ruo's words, Ling Zifei understood a lot in his heart, probably getting rid of Concubine Zhao Yi is not enough, the left minister's strength is huge, only by constantly reducing it is it possible to keep the country, the emperor is probably making a risky move, In this way, the movement is so loud, it would be strange not to startle the snake.But if the emperor is so eager, maybe the left minister has already posed a great threat to his status.

But if you are so eager for quick success, you will not do it very well.Ling Zifei sighed, and laughed helplessly at herself, it's not about her, why bother, this country has nothing to do with her Ling Zifei, even if the dynasty changes, she will just die, what is there to worry about?

"Tao Ruo, don't worry about these things in the palace these days, just stay at ease." Involuntarily, the painful longing in my heart came out again. In this huge palace, Unexpectedly, without her, there would be less peace of mind.Before this, although Zhang Yuxin was never by her side, she always had an inexplicable illusion that she was very close to her. Whenever the night was quiet, she would smell a faintly familiar cold fragrance, which could accompany her. I fell asleep, but when I woke up, there was nothing, like a dream, not a dream, even Ling Zifei couldn't explain clearly.

"Yes." Tao Ruo didn't know why the master suddenly became a little sad, and she was also worried.

Ling Zifei looked around, but felt that something was missing, "Tao Ruo, why haven't I seen Qiu Yu lately? Where is she going..." He stopped talking halfway through, what's the point?Qiu Yu was originally hers, she left, what else would Qiu Yu stay for, she couldn't help smiling bitterly: "Forget it, let those go..."

Tao Ruo seemed to be shocked, he hesitated to speak, and finally said nothing, seeing Ling Zifei's sad face, Tao Ruo felt uncomfortable, master, you have suffered these days...

"By the way, how is Xingsheng recently?" I haven't seen him these days, and I don't know what he has become. He is the only friend in this palace who can listen to me. Unfortunately, he has lost his mind. clear.In fact, Ling Zifei knew that Song Xingsheng was a talented man. Although he was raised in the deep palace by the emperor, it was rare to be able to live out his own life. After that experience, Ling Zifei had some guesses. Maybe Song Xingsheng was not crazy. It's all pretend, but I'm not sure. With Song Yusheng's IQ, he won't be able to feel the emperor's indifference towards him. He will also notice it if he takes the medicine. If he is really crazy, he will take it voluntarily. Drugs, but what is it for?

It's useless to speculate like this, why don't you go and see him.I have been busy with these things during this period of time, and I don't even have time to go and see Song Yusheng, so I can't help but feel a little worried.Ling Zifei asked Tao Ruo to prepare some snacks, and then the two went to Zizhuxuan together. The scene here was similar to when they came here before, and they all showed a sense of ruin. Seeing this, Ling Zifei only felt his nose a little sour. , how did it become like this?

Tired, so tired, I just want to fall down like this, never wake up again...

Just as Ling Zifei was feeling emotional, a white-clothed man rushed out from the hall, his hair was untidy and messy, his clothes were also dirty, and there were even holes in some places.As soon as he saw Ling Zifei and Ling Zifei, he rushed over, grabbed the food basket in Tao Ruo's hand, took the lid of the food basket and threw it aside, squatted on the ground and began to eat with his hands.

"Master, this..." Tao Ruo still didn't recover from the shock.

Ling Zifei raised his hand, signaling Tao Ruo to keep silent, "You step back first, let me... talk to him." Ling Zifei's eyes revealed some unclear emotions.

Tao Ruoben was a little worried, but seeing his master's resolute attitude, he had no choice but to stand aside.

Ling Zifei also squatted down, watching Song Yucheng keep pulling food into his mouth, seemed to feel Ling Zifei's gaze, raised his head numbly, and looked at the opposite person with a blank face, a little strange, a little familiar , can't tell.

Then he stopped looking at Ling Zifei, and continued to grab the food and put it into his mouth, making whining noises, maybe because he was a little anxious to eat, and suddenly choked, "cough cough cough..." the stuffed food will be full The food in the mouth was coughed up.

Ling Zifei hurriedly patted Song Yusheng on the back, giving him some relief, and he finally got better.

Song Xingcheng didn't say anything, and continued to eat with the food.

Seeing his appearance, Ling Zifei smiled. In fact, it's really good to be like Song Yucheng, he can forget a lot of troubles, and he won't be like himself now, and he may suffer from depression soon. "Xingsheng, I know you have forgotten everything, it is very good for you, at this time, I still don't know which Chunxiang is in the arms of that person, but you, even though you are dressed in rags, your heart is like a mirror, God gave you When you close a door, there will always be a window.”

"I've done a lot of things against my will these days, and I've also done a lot of things that disgust me. In such a palace, I lost the last bit of purity in my heart." Ling Zifei said to himself, with an indifferent and sad expression, "If possible, I'd rather be like you. I don't know anything, I can't do anything, I'm free, and I can do whatever I want."

"Xincheng, do you still remember Xin'er?" Ling Zifei smiled, but she knew how difficult it was for her to smile, "She left...she left here, forgot about this deep palace, and forgot about me too." Forget it. But... I am not reluctant at all, although it is sad, it is right for her to leave here, she will be happier, she will let go of hatred, she will have her own life, her own..." Then I couldn't continue, I just felt that the tears in my eyes could never be taken back, and they flowed in a mess.

"Look, I'm going against my will again..." Ling Zifei wiped away her tears, but the tears kept flowing like endlessly, she wiped and flowed again and again, "I don't want her to hate me at all, I don't want her to hate me at all." Leave me, but she left nothing behind, and I didn't even see her for the last time, she just disappeared in front of me, I'm so sad..."

"Xingsheng, if you can still talk to me, if you still remember me, at least I'm not as isolated and helpless as I am now. Here, I have no relatives, I don't have you, I don't have heart, I don't have persistence The strength to go down..."

"This deep palace is too deep, and I am too small..."

"Worries will eventually cancel out troubles." Just as Ling Zifei was talking, Song Yucheng said something out of nowhere.

Ling Zifei was stunned for a while, and then asked in a low voice, "You... don't you..." But then Song Yusheng's eyes were empty and lifeless, and he began to grab food and put it in his mouth, as if he had been hungry for many days generally.I had no choice but to smile wryly and watch him eat. Although I don't know what happened to Song Xingcheng, it's good that he is still alive. "Xingsheng, I will send someone to come over to clean you up, but don't take my kindness lightly, you are Mrs. Pianpian, why do you have to make such a wild image." It is also very important to say everything in my heart. Ok, at least it's not so boring now.And what did Xing Sheng mean by the phrase 'anxiety will eventually offset annoyance'?Do you want me to ask for troubles to forget the troubles in front of me?It's the same thing as diverting attention...

But how could this trouble be easily forgotten?Ling Zifei asked himself in his heart, the answer is impossible.

"Master, Eunuch Li came just now, and I heard that the emperor is looking for you everywhere." Tao Ruo stepped forward and said.

Ling Zifei turned his head to look at Tao Ruo, hiding all his emotions, "I know." Then he turned to Song Xingsheng and said, "Xingsheng, I'm leaving first, I will definitely come back here to chat with you when I have time " After finishing speaking, he stood up, but his eyes were darkened, and it seemed that his body was not as good as before.

As soon as the two of them came out of the Zizhu Pavilion, they saw Eunuch Li waiting at the side, Eunuch Li hurriedly bowed and said: "The Empress Dowager."

Ling Zifei smiled lightly and followed him, Tao Ruo couldn't help asking: "Eunuch Li, where is this taking my master?"

Eunuch Li sighed lightly, and said in a sharp voice: "You will know later, the emperor doesn't know what's going on these days, he will start drinking after finishing the memorial, and don't eat anything else, drink like this After getting drunk, I will sleep until the morning of the next day. No matter what the old slave persuades, His Majesty will not listen, and will not allow the ministers in the court to have an audience. The slave is only worried about His Majesty's body. Empress Dowager, the emperor summoned you this time , this old slave would like to beg you to persuade His Majesty, His Majesty will not be able to hold on if this continues."

Ling Zifei frowned, "I'll do my best." What's wrong with the emperor being so sluggish, the state affairs that had been in full swing a while ago suddenly became like this.Ling Zifei was a little confused.

"The old slave will thank the Queen Mother." Wiping away old tears, you know, he watched the emperor grow up and followed the emperor for so many years, and he also knows what kind of person his majesty is, but now such a decadent I have never seen it before, so how can I not worry?

After a while, the three of them arrived in front of a palace, with three large gold-plated characters "Longyin Palace" engraved on it. Eunuch Li called Ling Zifei into the palace and asked Tao Ruo to wait outside, and then he also waited outside the palace. .

Ling Zifei entered the palace, and found that this palace was not very different from other palaces, except that there were two large chairs with golden dragon patterns in front of the palace, which made Ling Zifei a little strange. The dragon throne is an honor only enjoyed by emperors. But there are two chairs. Since ancient times, the emperor has monopolized power, and the world cannot be divided into two. How can there be two chairs that symbolize the power of the emperor?Even the Supreme Emperor will not underestimate the etiquette system, what is going on?He approached secretly with doubts, only to see a man in a bright yellow robe holding a white jade pot, poured a glass of wine into the glass, drank it down, and then walked out from the side hall.

"You're here..." Tuoba Geng raised his head drunkenly, looked at Ling Zifei who was standing in front of the hall, snorted, and then casually sat on the big chair on the left.

"I don't know what the emperor asked me for?" Ling Zifei didn't fully believe what Eunuch Li said at first, but the emperor has exhausted all means for this government. Now that the great cause has not been completed, how can he not think about making progress and indulge in sex?But seeing him this way only added to the confusion in his heart.

While talking, Tuoba Genghu drank another glass of wine, "I just... want to tell you a story..." Regardless of Ling Zifei's surprised expression, he said, "Once upon a time, there was a man who was born in a big family. He is considered powerful in the capital, and his father also wanted his son to inherit his father's business, but he didn't know that this person has never had such a wish..."

"One day, he couldn't bear the pressure from his family anymore, so he ran away from home. He met a man who was astonishing as a heavenly man outside. He was in a hurry. This man was penniless and hungry, but he received his selfless help and brought him back to a bamboo house where the man lived. After that, the two met and knew each other. He wished he could meet this man soon Man, he thought in his heart that with such a good friend, he would have no regrets in this life. He also learned that the man who looked like a god in the sky had no worries and had been wandering outside, and had stayed in the capital for several months. , now he should continue to travel, and he will leave here in a short time. He originally wanted to travel with him, but he was shocked to hear that his family had changed, and his father had passed away. At this point, he had to go home, but he He didn't want to let go of this man, so he became selfish. He wanted to keep the only man who made him feel at ease and happy, so he used the power of his family to imprison him by his side forever... ..."

"I thought the man would get angry and angry, but it was beyond his expectation. He was still calm and at ease. He neither hated him nor blamed him. Instead, he shared his worries and problems, so they still made friends. During that time, This person is undoubtedly the happiest. Even though the affairs at home are busy and other forces are secretly surging, he will not be overwhelmed by the huge pressure after he has dealt with these matters with great effort, because he knows that the greater the power, the less You should trust others, but even if others are secretly against him, there is still one person he can trust, and that is him..."

"The two talked about the evening every day, and their relationship became better and better. I knew that one day, this man caught the sound of a man chatting and laughing with a maid, which aroused the nameless anger in his heart. I don't know why. , he began to hate men touching other people, and was even afraid that others would snatch him away, so he ordered someone to build a bamboo pavilion for the man that was exactly the same as the bamboo pavilion where the two of them lived together before, and ordered people not to get close to it. The man is firmly imprisoned under his control..."

"The man still didn't resent him, he still treated him as before, and this man finally understood his heart. He was a little panicked at first, but then he understood. So he used the power of wine to tell everything to the man. What surprised him was , the man didn't feel disgusted, he still smiled at him, and then he knew that the man didn't hate him, but had similar emotions with him, so his feelings for the man became out of control..."

"Until one day, he discovered that the man was the illegitimate son of the enemy. He felt that the man had deceived him. Although his heart ached, he became more and more agitated, and even wanted to kill the man. But he couldn't do it, and He felt that such a punishment was too light for the man. Therefore, he adopted a more disgusting method, drugging the man to make him unconscious. He thought that this kind of revenge would make him feel better, but he day The day gets more melancholic..."

"But the thing that makes him most desperate is that that man never betrayed him, but was betrayed by him. Do you think that man is stupid?" Tuoba Geng's eye sockets became more and more red and swollen, and his voice Also started to choke.

Ling Zifei also got the answer she wanted to know from his words, but it made her even more sad. Who is to blame for this ending?If Tuoba Genghu hadn't been born in the emperor's family, perhaps such a tragedy would not have happened, but the matter has come to this point, and there is no way to recover.

"Tell me! Is he too stupid!" Tuoba Genghu became a little excited.

"You're drunk." Ling Zifei finally understood Tuoba Genghu's helplessness, but everything he did was his own fault, and he only made Xun Sheng suffer.

Tuoba Geng shook his head, "I'm not drunk, I... just want to know why he... is so stupid, he clearly knew that I drugged him, but he still drank it with a smile, he..." Choked in the chest, only feel a heart-piercing feeling.

Ling Zifei sighed, stepped forward, and grabbed Tuoba Genghu's hip flask, "Don't think too much, since he did it voluntarily, he won't blame you, treat him better in the future..."

Tuoba Geng raised his blurred drunken eyes, and murmured: "Mother...mother queen..."
