Cold palace concubine pretty

Early in the morning of the next day, the morning mist hadn't dissipated, and it was still a bit deserted in spring, Ling Zifei lay down on the soft couch, meditating for a long time, Qingyi came in in a hurry, she didn't know yet.

"Master, Master Ling and Madam are asking to see each other." Qing Yi reported.

Ling Zifei sat on the soft couch, his thoughts were interrupted for a moment, he couldn't help but startled, and said: "Let them in." Ling Zifei also heard what Qing Yi said, and since he left, Ling Yutan has also resigned and retired. , no longer care about the matter of going up.Although the names of the Great General of Zhen Guo and the Duke of the State are well-known, it will undoubtedly make life easier to do so. Moreover, the emperor recited Ling Lao's outstanding achievements and bestowed him with a thousand acres of fertile land and ten thousand taels of gold. Old age is also wonderful.

Not long after, Mr. Ling and Mrs. Ling both walked in, and bowed to Ling Zifei who had stood up to greet them, "Cao Min sees the Empress Dowager."

"Father and mother don't need to be polite, just sit down." Madam Ling pulled Ling Zifei's hand over, and the two sat down together.

"Fei'er, I'm relieved to see that you're still fine." Madam Ling said lovingly.

Ling Zifei smiled, "Mother, don't worry about me, I will... take care of myself." Although Ling Zifei knew that they had recognized her identity and that she was not their own daughter, she still treated her like this. She, why wouldn't she be grateful to God?In modern times, I have never experienced such family affection, which is really precious.

Madam Ling smiled, "Fei'er, now that your father is not an imperial official, I don't know if you can get along well in the palace?"

Ling Zifei knew that Mrs. Ling was worried that she would be despised and rejected by the emperor, so she immediately said, "Very well, everyone in the palace is easy to get along with."

"That's good, alas, I came here in a hurry this time, and I didn't prepare your favorite food..."

"It doesn't matter, I will be very happy when my father and mother come to visit me."

At this time, Master Ling, who was silent for a moment, said, "Ma'am, I think Fei'er wants to try her mother's food, and I just brought the chef here this time, why don't you tell him to cook some food?" , and don’t let Fei’er forget the smell of home.”

Ling Zifei was taken aback for a moment, knowing that his father deliberately wanted to support his mother, maybe he had something to say to him.So he also said: "Mom, I really miss the taste at home, if you can, I will trouble your mother."

"What's the matter, as long as you like it, I'll go and order it." Madam Ling didn't care, but was very happy, and left the hall with a smile on her face.

At this moment, Ling Zifei retreated Qingyi and all the servants, and then Master Ling began to say: "Fei'er, daddy is not only here to visit you this time, but also to talk to you."

"Well, Dad, if you have anything to say, just say it."

"After you left the Ling Mansion last time, Dad also resigned from office. You already know. There are many reasons for Dad's resignation." Ling Yutan sighed, "Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger. I have been an official for so many years, and I have gone through so many things. I have long since looked away from fame, fortune and power. I also know that this old bone can't hold on anymore. Letting go of everything is also letting go of a heavy burden. Dad married you back then. I gave it to the first emperor, not for myself, nor for you. In the final analysis, it was because the first emperor was kind and virtuous, and he was a pillar of the Qingsha Kingdom. It was my father's fault that I had no choice but to send you to the palace, and now you are alone, but my father does not regret it."

Ling Zifei didn't make a sound. She knew that her daughter was her parents' little padded jacket after all. They did this out of necessity, and it was also for Qingsha country. Although she didn't care about this country, in front of Ling Yutan's eyes, this Above all else, Ling Zifei didn't blame him, and she believed that their own daughter would not complain either.

"Fei'er," Ling Yutan sighed, "Actually, I... know something about you and that girl of the Zhang family." Seeing Ling Zifei a little dazed, he continued: "Although the things between the two of you are unreasonable, But dad can't control that much, after all you've grown up, dad can't say anything."

"Father..." Ling Zifei felt a warm current rushing through his heart, and his eyes turned red for a moment.

"Well, although what I'm going to say is irrelevant, Dad still has to tell you the truth."

Ling Zifei was a little puzzled, but still listened to him quietly.

"Do you still remember that you once asked Dad if he had any relationship with Prime Minister Zuo?"

Ling Zifei nodded. Indeed, because this matter was related to her relationship with Xin'er, she had some guesses before.

"In fact, father has never betrayed the imperial court, father is only loyal to His Majesty." Ling Yutan said slowly, "In fact, before the death of the late emperor, father had already promised the late emperor that he must assist the prince, that is, the current emperor regains his power and eradicates the traitors. At that time, when the new emperor ascended the throne, Prime Minister Li Qi was very powerful, and he had contacts with many court ministers, including General Zhang Tingfeng. In fact, it is to train elite soldiers and be prepared. But Zhang Tingfeng has 10,000+ sergeants, the threat is too great. And he and Prime Minister Zuo are friends in need, so the first person we have to deal with is him."

"But...why do you have to kill him?" Ling Zifei was a little sad. After all, Zhang Tingfeng was Xin'er's father, and his death brought a lot of difficulties and sorrows to Xin'er.

"However, it's not easy to deal with a general. If you directly reduce the troops, it will cause him to fight back more strongly. If you imprison him, there is no reason, and it will make the army's morale turbulent, so we can only kill him. In fact, the plan was from the beginning. It was arranged in Huangshi. We put our confidants by Zhang Tingfeng's side. The assassination of Xianquetai was all planned by us, but Prime Minister Zuo was beyond our expectations. First, his close ministers fanned the flames and forced Zhang Tingfeng to death. After that, he asked some ministers to jointly write a letter to the emperor, requesting that their entire clan be beheaded, and the emperor was forced to have no choice but to order the family to be exterminated."

"Miss Zuo lost an arm, and he was impatient, but his vitality was seriously injured and he didn't dare to mess around. But the harem is ready to move, which is why the emperor used you and the girl of the Zhang family. You are the empress dowager, the master of the harem, And you can only choose to stand with the emperor, so you are also the most important pawn to contain me and him. You have lived up to expectations, and finally we have destroyed the power of the left prime minister, but the left prime minister The city is very heavy, and he has also made a deal with Beiyuan Kingdom, but fortunately we were able to annihilate him when we heard the news, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

"The left prime minister is gone, but the battles in the court will never stop. Some people are ambitious, but many people don't have that kind of thought. Although they are loyal to the court, if they become more powerful, they will cause the emperor's speculation, and even Doubt. And our Ling family has trained so many elite soldiers, and it is impossible to escape this dispute. At that time, the emperor was determined to eradicate differences, and I was also the first to bear the brunt. But I am very relieved, Feier, you won a battle for your father, but I am also deeply saddened that you did not escape this catastrophe. Now that I am returning to the field, I have dispelled the emperor's vigilance, and living a comfortable and comfortable life is also a kind of happiness."

"Father doesn't complain about anything, I hope you don't take these things to heart, Fei'er, I thought I would never see you again, but... well, I just hope that you will be safe and sound, and live a good life."

"Well, Dad, don't worry, I'm fine." Ling Zifei replied.

Ling Yutan nodded, "Father knows that you are going to attack the right minister, but you have to be very careful...the right minister is no better than the left minister. The left prime minister Li Qi is good at forming cliques and making friends. He is trying to win over the court ministers, but the right prime minister is more It is making friends with people in the Jianghu, there are many masters in the mansion, it is really not something you can handle."

Ling Zifei sighed, the fact is so, she also knows, but she has made up her mind, "Father, but if I don't deal with him, I must be the one who dies."

"Father didn't tell you to give up..."

Ling Zifei was taken aback, she was still trying to figure out what Ling Yutan meant, didn't she let herself give up, was that support?

"The Right Prime Minister is now under one person and above ten thousand people. Now that he is recruiting knights everywhere, he may have turned his back on him. The emperor once promised me that he would never do anything to you, but now the Right Prime Minister is disregarding the holy will." , going to Yunnan Mountain to kill you must be very ambitious."

"So this is also the reason why the emperor didn't kill me, but let me continue to be the queen mother..."

"Yes, but he still has half the reason..." Ling Yutan didn't continue.

Ling Zifei asked, "What is that?"

"You'll know."

Presumably Ling Yutan would not speak anymore, so Ling Zifei had no choice but to stop asking.

Ling Yutan took a sip of tea and continued, "Fei'er, I heard that you are planning to invite the Liu family's son out..."

Ling Zifei was taken aback for a moment, and then recovered. She didn't expect Ling Yutan to know her plan very well, so she couldn't help feeling a little in awe of her father, "Father, how did you know?" She should be the only one in this matter. The three of them, Nangong Yaomo and the emperor, knew it was true.

"It's all my guess. You young people are too reckless. Do you think such a hasty plan can work? You are too naive, and the right is not a fuel-efficient lamp."

This can all be guessed, Ling Zifei is a little unbelievable, but he still listens carefully to Ling Yutan's words.

"If you want to kill Liu Yunzhu directly, that's not acceptable. The right prime minister's scheming is beyond your comparability. This matter is absolutely impossible. Moreover, after killing him, the right prime minister will also have doubts about the emperor. He may They will jump over the wall in a hurry and rebel."

"Should I just let it go?" Ling Zifei was a little excited, although Ling Jitan's analysis was correct.

Ling Yutan shook his head, "Father didn't ask you to kill him, but..."

The father and daughter chatted for a while before Ling Zifei suddenly realized, "Father, your plan is really good."

Before Ling Yutan could speak, Mrs. Ling came in with a group of maidservants, each carrying a plate of exquisite dishes, "Fei'er, you should like all of these."

Ling Zifei curled his lips into a smile, "Thank you, mother."
