Allure of the World

    Lan Ling returned to Wang Kang Palace, feeling a little uneasy in her heart.

    Ling Chen's injury was not healed yet, but he insisted on going to court. Senior brother called Jiang Rui, one of the best in Tsing Yi Hall, cousin Chen Chao, and Liang Hongxiu. It seemed that something major had happened.

    Again war? and Beiyi? Or King Hening? And her father, Lan Jingtian?

    Huo Jingyun once told her that Lan Min had been sent away by him and sent to San Yiniang.

    She is not worried about the safety of that younger brother, but as for her father, Lan Jingtian, the mountains will not turn and the waters will turn.

    Lan Ling became more and more worried.

    Some changes have taken place in the palace these days. Guan Yue was named Concubine Virtuous, and she presided over the affairs of the harem. Concubine Jing was named Concubine Jing.

    Both of them were successful in catching the spies in the palace.

    Of course, in the harem, some people laugh and some cry.

    The jade concubine, who had never been involved in the affairs of the palace, was given death by the emperor. The reason was that she colluded with King Ning and revealed information to King Ning. Find out about the fornication with Sedum and reveal the military situation.

    Lan Ling knew that Liu Hui was very good with his father, Lan Jingtian, but he did not leave with his father at that time.

    Because of this case, Lan Ling was feared by some ministers again, but now everyone knows that Concubine Ling is favored, and no one dares to go against the scales.

    These news, it is said that the emperor has ordered that it is strictly forbidden to spread to Wang Kang Palace.

    But Lan Ling never asked about Lingchen Chaotang. She never asked about her father. Because this matter has no solution, she actually knows the ending.

    These days, Ling Shuang has been soaking in Lan Ling's palace every day, and now the person she is pestering Lan Ling to ask has changed. It is no longer Huo Jingyun, but has become Jiang Rui.

    It turned out that Ling Chen asked Huo Jingyun to teach Ling Shuang to shoot arrows, and Huo Jingyun handed this errand to Jiang Rui.

    "Sister-in-law Ling, you said yesterday that Jiang Rui could kill a wild boar by himself at the age of nine, but Jiang Rui said you were wrong. The first time he killed a wild boar was seven years old." Ling Shuang said to Lan Ling very seriously.

    "Oh, that must be my memory." Lan Ling smiled.

    Ling Shuang suddenly whispered mysteriously: "Jiang Rui said that you used to wet the bed when you were young, and you even wet the bed once when you were almost eight years old. Is it true?"

    Lan Ling's face was flushed red, she gritted her teeth and said softly to the princess: "Remember, remember at that time, he just ate a raw chicken, there were chicken feathers on the corners of his mouth, and his hands were full of blood, but To help me dry the quilt, I was scolded by my grandfather."

    "Eat raw chicken?" Ling Shuang was shocked.

    "Well, he didn't tell you? Jiang Rui likes to eat all kinds of raw animals since he was a child, anything that flies in the sky, climbs on the ground, as long as it is alive, he eats it. He loves it the most. The worm is the squirming worm, the best bean worm, it must be raw, and cooked food is not to his appetite."

    Lan Ling's face turned green when she saw Ling Shuang.

    Lan Ling knew that Jiang Rui was actually most afraid of bugs.

    "Does he eat people?"

    "Human. If he wasn't very hungry, he wouldn't eat." Lan Ling said lightly.

    Ling Chen arrived at Wang Kang Palace in the evening, met Lan Ling and said with a smile: "I heard a joke today about your little uncle."

    "What joke?" Lan Ling saw that Ling Chen was in a good mood, and her mood also improved.

    "Jiang Rui recently taught Ling Shuang to shoot arrows, Ling Shuang often brought food to Jiang Rui, I heard that today Ling Shuang brought Jiang Rui a plate of live bean worms for Jiang Rui to eat directly, Jiang Rui was scared He jumped several highs and ran straight away."

    Lan Ling laughed, stinking Jiang Rui, let you talk about the embarrassment of my childhood!

    As she was talking, she saw Ling Shuang walk in angrily, dragging a person behind her, it was Jiang Rui, and then behind, followed by Huo Jingyun.

    Lan Ling felt guilty, so frightened, she flashed behind Ling Chen and hid.

    "Brother Huang, where is that woman?"

    Ling Chen saw Ling Shuang's small eyes wide open, her face flushed, and then she saw Lan Ling hid behind him and held her breath, her eyebrows lowered, as if she had done something bad. .

    "Which woman, what's wrong, who messed with you? Jingyun is here too?"

    "I saw the emperor, Wei Chen was afraid of trouble, so I followed him all the way."

    Ling Shuang saw Lan Ling hiding behind Ling Chen, and grabbed it out, "You big liar!" She said while scratching Lan Ling's itch.

    Lan Ling dodged, laughed and hid behind Ling Chen.

    Jiang Rui frowned and looked at Lan Ling fiercely.

    Ling Shuang shouted to Ling Chen, "Brother Huang, you are not allowed to help her!"

    Ling Chen stretched out his hand to stop Ling Shuang who was rushing towards him, "What the **** is going on?"

    "She, she told me Jiang Rui likes to eat raw food..."

    Ling Chen suddenly realized, "The joke that was passed down in the army today turned out to be your masterpiece? You should be punished. You should come out and pour tea for them to admit your mistake."

    Ling Chen pulled Lan Ling out from behind.

    "Sister-in-law Ling, he said you were almost eight years old and still wet the bed, and nothing else. How could you retaliate against him like this?" Ling Shuang asked.

    "You are eight years old and still wet the bed?" Ling Chen suddenly turned his head and asked Lan Ling.

    "Nonsense! I'll tell you everything about your childhood!" Lan Ling threatened Jiang Rui viciously.

    "It seems that it is not a good thing to have a playmate who grew up together." Jiang Rui said.

    The crowd laughed.

    Lan Ling saw that the princess shifted her mind to Jiang Rui, and Jiang Rui seemed to like the princess, and her mood improved.

    Just think of Huo Jingyun, such an outstanding person, I don't know what kind of outstanding woman can match him. Liang Hongxiu liked him, Lan Ling knew it for a long time, but the brother's feelings for her did not seem to be between a man and a woman.

    Ling Chen went to Wanghang Palace almost every day during this time. He was always very busy.

    Ling Chen likes to listen to her chattering words without limit. Only at this time can his heart feel a little relieved.

    In the evening, Ling Chen passed on the dinner, leaving Huo Jingyun and Princess Jiang Rui to have dinner together. During the dinner, Lan Ling and Ling Shuang had been fighting each other, only the two of them never took him Seeing him as a high-ranking emperor, he only regards him as his husband and brother, and this meal was extraordinarily warm.

    It has been two watch since they left.

    Ling Chen held Lan Ling in his arms and suddenly said, "Should we have a child?"

    "Isn't Concubine Yi pregnant with the emperor's child?" Lan Ling's face paled.

    I don't know why, except Wen Heng, none of their concubines were pregnant, and Liu Hui was pregnant once a long time ago.

    Lan Ling always thought that it seemed that the emperor did not want them to be pregnant, and gave them some medicine.

    Ling Chen paused slightly, then hugged her tightly, "I'm talking about our two children. Take care of your body, I want a child. Why, you don't like?"

    He suddenly tilted his head and asked her.

    "Of course, who doesn't want to have a child of their own. It depends on fate."

    "Then let's be diligent." Ling Chen was in high spirits today, perhaps because he was in a good mood.

    Lan Ling broke free from Ling Chen's arms and straightened his hair.

    Ling Chen got up and put on his clothes, turned around and tucked the quilt for Lan Ling, "I'll go take a look."

    Lan Ling did not speak.

    Ling Chen came to Yongan Palace.

    He and she haven't seen each other for over a month. Ling Chen didn't go in, but just stood at the door and asked the imperial doctor, Zhou Yu.

    "How is she?"

    Doctor Zhou knelt down and said, "Report to the emperor, the imperial concubine has an omen of slippery fetus. Seeing that she is red, she has already given her medicine. At present, there is no serious problem."

    Ling Chen heard this, turned to leave, but heard Wen Heng call out: "Ah Chen, do you really hate me so much?"

    Wen Heng came out, she lost a lot of weight, her face was pale, and there was a faint moisture in her eyes.

    Ling Chen paused and finally turned around.

    The water vapor in Wen Heng's eyes finally condensed into tears, rushing out, and he finally came. As long as he comes to see her the first time, she will let him come the second time, the third time...

    Ling Chen walked back, "Wen Heng, don't think too much, take care of your baby."

    "Ah Chen, do you hate me so much? Only because of Lan Ling? I did that to her because of jealousy, I can't blame it! Because I love you, I can't stand you being kind to others !"

    "But Lan Ling never hurt you. Also, I punished you because you hurt Lan Ling, I alienated you, and it has nothing to do with her. You know, I hate others to deceive the most Me. You pretended to have a heart attack and deceived my feelings, and that time in Qingshan, you almost cost Lan Ling's life. How can I trust you again!"

    Wen Heng burst into tears.

    She stepped forward and grabbed Ling Chen's sleeve, "Yes, I lied to you, but I lied to you for the purpose of just hoping that you would treat me a little bit better, it's not a heinous thing. It's a big sin. Ah Chen, don't abandon me like this..."

    Ling Chen sighed, "Wen Heng, let us all calm down."

    Wen Heng still didn't let go: "Achen, why do you feel that you don't care about this child?"

    Ling Chen gently stroked her hand, "You think too much."

    "Does your previous promise still count? Only the child I gave birth to be the prince?"

    Ling Chen nodded, "Of course it counts."

    He left anyway, Wen Heng sat on the ground in disappointment, his silver teeth clenched.

    She always thought that she knew Ling Chen, but she didn't realize until today that she didn't know him. Or, she no longer knew the current Ling Chen.

    It's just winter and the weather is weirdly cold.

    During this time, Ling Chen was even busier, and he often couldn't see a shadow for a few days.

    Lan Ling vaguely knew that the army of Beiyi had been pressed to the border of Daxing Kingdom, Shangdan Kingdom also turned against Daxing, and Shangdan Kingdom had openly supported King Ning. There is also the Northwest Marquis in the northwest border, and the emperor can't move it.

    Lan Ling knew that Ling Chen was upset, so he cooked a different soup every day and sent him to the study.

    The first thing Ling Chen did when he went to the study was to look at the soup pot on the right side of the table. Every day when he retired, he could always see that the patterns were different. There were Qingxin soup, Sanxian soup, old chicken soup, nourishing soup, lung-running soup…

    Even the soup utensils are different every day, which is pleasing to the eye.

    Lan Ling seemed to know what he was thinking. He sometimes wanted to drink mutton soup, but when he returned to the study, he saw mutton soup. This made Ling Chen feel very miraculous.

    Lan Ling personally delivered wolfberry black chicken soup to the emperor today. When he came back, he stayed in the imperial garden for a while, and suddenly saw Pearl hiding behind a tree, with a panicked expression and tears in his eyes.

    "Pearl, what's wrong with you?" Lan Ling asked.

    Pearl was originally the third daughter of the concubine Shen Bing, a doctor who is being discussed, she is beautiful and versatile. In the spring, she was sent to the palace by her father for the draft. The emperor only selected two concubines. She was selected to serve the emperor's daily life and serve tea in the Linhua Hall.

    These are what Lan Ling later knew. She likes Pearl very much. Pearl has a trustworthy temperament. There is a kind of person who will feel at ease and relaxed every time she approaches. Pearl is such a person.

    Pearl was a little panicked when she saw Lan Ling.

    "Concubine Ling, I'm fine."

    Lan Ling saw her pale face and grabbed her wrist to check her pulse, "Are you ill?"

    Pearl panicked even more and struggled to break free.

    Lan Ling let go, but his face became solemn.

    "Pearl, you are pregnant, whose it is, the emperor's?"

    Pearl immediately knelt down, her shoulders trembling, "No, no, madam help, madam help."

    Lan Ling helped her up, "Go, don't be here, it's not good to be found out, go to My Forget Worry Palace."

    Pearl followed Lan Ling into Klai Kangwon Palace.

    Lan Ling ordered the girls to go out, closed the door, and Pearl knelt down again.

    Lan Ling asked Pearl, "I know you are the eldest girl in the emperor's room. Now that this kind of thing happened, if that person wasn't the emperor, who would he be?"

    Pearl just wept.

    Lan Ling looked at her and sighed: "I can't help you like this."

    Zhuzhu kowtowed and said, "I beg your mother to give me a dose of slippery medicine, this child, Zhuzhu will not be needed."

    Lan Ling helped her up, "You are a person in the emperor's room, whoever is so bold, you dare to move!"

    Zhuzhu said, "Please don't let the emperor know that the slave girl had an abortion, so don't pursue this matter, okay?"

    Lan Ling looked at her and whispered: "Is it King Rui?"

    Pearl is like being electrocuted, "No, don't pursue it, please don't pursue it. That person doesn't like pearls, he..."

    Lan Ling sneered, "He doesn't like you, and he made you pregnant? He doesn't like you, but he likes another person he can't get!"

    Pearl raised her head to look at Lan Ling, "It turns out that the mother also knows."

    "Well, I know. Do you like him?"

    "What if I like him, he won't marry me." Pearl's expression darkened.

    "Do you want to marry him? Even if he doesn't love you?" Lan Ling asked.

    Pearl nodded, "As long as I can see him every day, I will be satisfied."

    Lan Ling took her hand and said: "Don't worry, I won't tell the emperor, but I will tell that person, as for how he chooses, it's up to him, as long as he doesn't regret it. You Don't worry about taking that medicine, after all, it hurts your body, and you are not married yet."

    Pearl blushed, but she believed in the blue spirit.

    Lan Ling sent the pearl back to Linhua Hall and went directly to Guhuaxuan, the emperor's study.

    As soon as I got to the door, I heard arguing from inside.

    "Brother Huang, you can't hold Wen Heng like this anymore, she is carrying your child! Can you bear to treat her like this?"

    "The fifth, she should not be alive because of the crime of arson and murder!" Ling Chen's voice was cold.

    Lan Ling knew very well that no matter how big the crime was, if he hadn't died at the time, he wouldn't have died in the future. Especially like Wen Heng, the people who Wen Heng killed were just a few girls in the eyes of outsiders.

    And she is pregnant with a dragon child.

    Time will gradually weaken the hatred in people's hearts, and justice will gradually skew the balance. No one will understand the position of those girls in Lan Ling's heart, let alone the trauma caused to her.

    Before the guards came in to report, Lan Ling entered the study.

    King Rui and Lei Ze were kneeling on the ground, with Wen Heng standing beside them.

    “Why are you here?” Ling Chen asked.

    Lan Ling raised her head and looked at Wen Heng, "Congratulations to Concubine Yi for regaining her freedom."

    Ling Chen's expression changed: "No, she was brought here by King Rui."

     King Rui got up and looked at Lan Ling: "Concubine Ling, after all, she is pregnant with the emperor's son, and it is not good for her to be detained. Besides, Concubine Ling is also safe and sound, dead. It's just a few girls, and I also ask the concubine Ling to forgive her."

    Lan Ling sneered, "King Rui looks at Lan Ling highly, Lan Ling is not a generous person, and Lan Ling has always regarded those girls as his sisters. In King Rui's eyes, The girls' lives are as cheap as grass, so they will bully them at will!"
