Heaven Scheme Palace

"Wei Guogong, I should be the one asking you what your intentions are! Hiding Emperor's illness is just to pacify the people of the world, but tonight, you led the people of Lu Family into the palace, insisting on meeting the Emperor face to face. Don't you know that the Emperor needs a rest the most? Could it be that you want to force the palace to rebel? " Lv Ling Yu had lived under the control of the Lu Family for all these years, so he no longer had to endure. His every word was trembling, and he did not treat the Wei Guogong as his own brother anymore, as if he was a stranger.

Lv Zhong Tian did not think that Lv Ling Yu, who had always been subservient in front of him, would have the guts to scold him like this in front of all the other officials. Is the Empress referring to your son, Prince Chu? "

Lv Ling Yu's face froze, he looked at Xuan Yuan Yu who was kneeling up, and said coldly: "My son has always only been under the orders of Emperor, but it was Wei Guogong who used the Prince Chu's disguise to enter the palace, you must know, Emperor's body is still strong and robust."

Xuan Yuan Yu raised his head, staring at his own mother without blinking. He never thought that at this crucial moment, she would actually not stand by his side, there was even a kind of decisiveness that would rather be shattered than die.

Just at this time, an elite unit of soldiers rushed out of Hall of the Heavens, surrounding the court officials. Lv Zhong Tian squinted his eyes, and rushed over to Pei Sheng, "What is Great General bringing troops over to the palace for?"

"This general will follow the orders of the Emperor to protect the Imperial City. Pei Sheng and Wei Guogong looked at each other coldly, his tone filled with killing intent.

Everyone present burst out in fear, they naturally understood, that Pei Sheng, who wielded all the power in the world, would definitely put them on the spot, without leaving any face at all.

"Milords, please leave." Lv Ling Yu saw that Pei Sheng had arrived, and became even more confident, waving his sleeves: "There is a General Pei here, I believe no one will be able to cause any trouble here."

Everyone looked at each other, they did not say a word as they looked at Lv Zhong Tian, and now that Lv Wen Hao was not here, all of the Lu Family s took him as their leader, and even if he did not say anything, they would not dare to act rashly.

"Since there are General Pei protecting the Imperial City, this old man is relieved." With that, he looked at the rest of the people and retreated out of Hall of the Heavens.

Everyone left one after another, but only Xuan Yuan Yu remained kneeling on the ground, his eyes shining with a bright light. He was staring straight at Lv Ling Yu, the pain and anger in his eyes were obvious.

"Yu'er …" How could Lv Ling Yu not know what the current Xuan Yuan Yu was thinking, "Follow matriarch." Without waiting for him to get up, he turned and walked towards the side hall of the Hall of the Heavens.

Xuan Yuan Yu slowly stood up, his fists clenched tightly, he directly went past Pei Sheng and followed Lv Ling Yu towards the side hall.

The side hall was empty and no one was around, the bitter aroma of the medicine spread everywhere, and Xuan Yuan Yu could vaguely hear his father in the main hall coughing from time to time.

"Why?" Xuan Yuan Yu's voice echoed in the quiet great hall, his voice was filled with unconcealed anger and questions.

"Until now, you actually do not care about royal father's condition at all? All these years, have you forgotten how royal father doted on you? " As Lv Ling Yu said this, his eyes turned red, and a hint of bitterness filled his heart.

"If you really loved me, then you wouldn't support Xuan Yuan Jing and suppress me again and again! On the surface, the reason he doted on and supported me for so many years was only to conceal his plans to support Xuan Yuan Jing! I have fought with the Crown Prince for so many years, and in the end, I have actually helped someone else. Xuan Yuan Yu's expression became more and more agitated as he spoke, his expression turning even more furious.

Hearing Xuan Yuan Yu's words, Lv Ling Yu let out a long sigh, but he remained silent.

Xuan Yuan continued: "And my matriarch, at such a critical time, has turned against my Lu Family again and again.

When Lv Ling Yu heard this, the sorrowful expression on his face became completely obvious, and tears finally began to roll down as he asked softly, "Do you know that the Queen has been hanging in the air for many years, but why Emperor has not chosen me as her successor?"

Xuan Yuan Yu did not answer, but continued to speak: "Because the Lu Family's power can no longer be strengthened, and the current Lu Family is already above and above a single person, if it wasn't for Pei Sheng holding a heavy weapon to contend with, this Da Jin would have been toppled long ago."

"So the matriarch and royal father decided to sacrifice me to help Xuan Yuan Jing?" As Xuan Yuan Yu spoke, he began chuckling, and the unwillingness in his eyes grew more and more intense.

"Your royal father also gave you a chance, but you completely disappointed him with the incident at Henan Province."

"That's right, it was that exact mistake back then that royal father had denied everything I did! But do I want to take that one hundred thousand taels of silver? But without money, how could I contend against Crown Prince? Only with money can I slowly get rid of Lu Family's control. Could it be that matriarch thinks that I didn't do everything for you? " Xuan Yuan Yu spoke to the extreme, his throat was choked with sobs, "How could I not know that mother was living under someone else's roof in Lu Family all those years ago? Even if you are the noble concubine in matriarch now, it would be hard for you to erase the identity of the Lu Family. I have worked hard for so many years, and only wanted to become the empress dowager so that I could completely break away from the control of the Lu Family as long as I became the emperor! But in the end, not only do you not support your son, you actually support Xuan Yuan Jing! "

's tears fell onto the pearl as she listened to his reprimands, her heart filled with pain, "The matriarch also understood your painstaking efforts. But from the looks of the current situation, it is impossible for you to escape the control of the Lu Family, if you ascend the throne, you will only become a puppet emperor. One day, this Xuan Yuan family will be annihilated by your hands. matriarch does not wish to see you become a sinner of all ages, nor do I have the face to see the spirit of your royal father in heaven! "

"How did the matriarch determine that I was the emperor? Then the entire Xuan Yuan family's mountains and rivers would be destroyed by me?" Xuan Yuan Yu's eyes were bloodshot.

"In all these years, have you ever held your own opinion? Which time wasn't it listening to Lu Family? When did you ever make the decision? " Lv Ling Yu was full of doubts.

"Then matriarch, watch! Your son will prove it to you! " Xuan Yuan Yu felt that his pride had been humiliated, and with that, he flicked his sleeves and left.

Lv Ling Yu did not chase after him, he stood where he was and watched Xuan Yuan Yu's figure gradually disappearing into the distance, after wiping away the tears on his face, he walked towards the main hall.

The sound of coughing resounded through the entire hall, and Xuan Yuan Hong Tao, who was lying on the dragon bed, had a frighteningly pale complexion.

"Empress, Emperor is coughing blood again!" The servant passed the blood handkerchief to Lv Ling Yu, his voice filled with fear.

Lv Ling Yu waved his hand tiredly, indicating that she should leave.

"I, just now, heard the argument between you and Yu'er from the side chamber …" Xuan Yuan Hong Tao deeply condensed the remaining tears on his face.

"Yu-er is stubborn." Lv Ling Yu sat down beside Xuan Yuan Hong Tao and caressed the grizzled hair on his temples with his hand. It was as if he had aged quite a bit in one night.

Xuan Yuan Hong Tao raised his hand, and tightly held onto the soft hand that was resting on his temple sideburns. After coughing a few times, he asked, "Ah Yu, do you blame us?"

"Emperor did this to protect Da Jin, Ah Yu understands you." Lv Ling Yu just stopped crying and broke the dam again.

"In the end, I have still fulfilled my promise to you …" Cough cough … Back then, I wasn't able to do it after I promised to make you a title. "After that, I promised to give the Da Jin to Yu'er, but I still haven't been able to do that." Xuan Yuan Hong Tao's eyes were full of guilt and self-blame.

"But the Emperor has given chenqie her only love, and this love is more important than anything else." Lv Ling Yu leaned into Xuan Yuan Hong Tao's embrace. Although he was grieving, his eyes were slowly filled with sweetness, "Three thousand weak water, only taking a ladle, Ah Yu will never regret it in his life."

Xuan Yuan Hong Tao's hands, which were wrapped around Lv Ling Yu, trembled a little. At that moment, he seemed to have once again recalled the first time he had met Lv Ling Yu.

That year, he was still Crown Prince and was invited to a feast. That year, it was the first time he saw Lv Ling Yu dressed in white, like snow, under the apricot tree.

That was his entire life.

He rejected Lu Family, and regardless of the objections of the crowd, he wanted to marry this lowly and unfavored concubinage, and even gave up his position as Crown Prince.

Lv Ling Yu suddenly felt that the person hugging his arms had lost all of her strength. She was shocked, and raised his head to see that Xuan Yuan Hong Tao's eyes were closed, she screamed: "Quick, Imperial Physician Xuan!"

Lv Wen Hao and Yao Dan Qing relied on the intelligence given to them by the informants in the Qingzhou to chase after Li Da's tracks. It wasn't until a quarter of an hour later that they found a barren village in the northern outskirts of the city, and with the help of the moonlight that they could vaguely make out that there were a few black-clothed people guarding a house with a weak light source.

They guessed that Li Da must have been imprisoned in that place, and instructed a few guards to charge out.

When the black clothed man saw that someone had barged in, he shouted loudly, and started fighting with Chi Yuan, Jiang Che and the rest.

Yao Dan Qing saw that they had lured the black clothed man over to a side, and there were only two or three people guarding the hut. Seeing that it was a good opportunity, they flew out together and broke out of the window from the back of the hut.

Seeing that someone had come to save him, Li Da immediately shouted: "Save me, save me!"

Yao Dan Qing took out the software on his waist, and cut the rope on his body, then picked him up and said, "Let's go!"

Li Da did not know any martial arts, so naturally his movement skills were not as nimble as theirs. A wave of disgust appeared in Lv Wen Hao's eyes, but he still carried Yao Dan Qing by one arm and went out of the window.

Seeing that Li Da was saved, the black-clothed man who was fighting with Chi Yuan and the rest immediately slashed towards Yao Dan Qing and Lv Wen Hao.

Yao Dan Qing kicked Li Da to Piao Xu and muttered: "You and Chi Yuan take Li Da away first!"

Piao Xu looked at the miserable Li Da, and without daring to disobey, she took Li Da and left the place.

Amidst the blade and sword images, dozens of black clothed men surrounded Lv Wen Hao and Yao Dan Qing. Jiang Che and Lei Zhi stood in front of them to protect them, their cold eyes emitting killing intent.

Jiang Che said softly: Master and Madame had already escaped when the chance was right, Lei Zhi and I will cover for you!

Just at this time, the black clothed man had already brandished his blade, but Yao Dan Qing's martial arts was much weaker than before.
