Being scolded as a dead star?All the bosses in the capital are rushing to pet me

The prince's heart felt hot and he said in a deep voice: "My son and ministers will take care of themselves. Father, it is best to keep what you say."

In the early years, in order to accumulate strength, he lived late at night and had no food at all. He didn't know what health was. If it weren't for the pills from the strange doctor presented by Shen Nian, he wouldn't be as powerful as he is now.

Hearing the concern in his son's words, the emperor was so happy that he almost lost his imperial majesty.

He waved his arms and said, "Let's go! Today I'm going to give the prince a big one to wish him a happy new life!"

Yes, freshmen.

All the civil and military officials cooperated very favorably, "The prince is a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"

"Prince Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose!"

The sound was deafening.

Queen Mother Yin stopped and looked at the excitement over there, her eyes darkening.

The tragic scene of the eldest brother dying in silence appeared in his mind, and the sharp nails dug into the palms of his hands, which was more painful than seeing his brother die in person.

"Queen Mother?" the female official reminded in a low voice.

Queen Mother Yin came to her senses and turned around and entered the tent.

It's time to drink blood.

Those people should hear good news when she comes out again, hahahaha.

The woman's face, as fair and smooth as a baby's, showed a cheerful and distorted smile, which frightened everyone who saw it.

"By the way, how is Meng Lingzi doing?" Returning to the tent, Queen Mother Yin asked expressionlessly.

As he asked, he brought the cup filled with blood to his mouth.

The eyes flashed with bloodthirsty red light, making people afraid to look directly.

Female officer: "When I get back to the Queen Mother, Manager Meng is still in the water prison. Before leaving the palace, I heard that he... seems to be a little bad."

Queen Mother Yin's expression did not change, and her voice had no warmth at all, "It's a good fortune."

The female officer was shocked.

Does the Queen Mother mean to ask Mr. Meng to take charge of her life?

But why?
  Didn’t Manager Meng always extend his favor to the Queen Mother?

Many questions popped up, and the female officer's mind was almost on fire.

"According to the Ai family's decree, let him stay in the water prison. Whenever he dies, he will be thrown into a mass grave. The Ai family does not want to see him again." Queen Mother Yin spoke indifferently.

When she thought of Meng Lingzi's unreliable work, which caused her to have corpse spots on her body and nearly kill her, Empress Dowager Yin could not forgive him.

No matter how good-looking that face is, it can't erase the mistakes he made.

Besides, when she comes to power, what kind of beauty won’t be found?

The female officer shouted in her heart and responded: "Yes."

Queen Mother Yin seemed to be aware of her thoughts. She put down the cup, wiped the blood on the corner of her mouth, and chuckled. The blood on her teeth was clearly visible, which made people even more frightened.

"It is true that the Ai family is ruthless, but they will not beat or kill for no reason, and the Ai family will punish them... who has not made the Ai family unhappy? If you do your job well, your benefits will be indispensable in the future." Empress Dowager Yin said in a rather serious tone Some are meaningful.

This statement is somewhat sincere.

She will soon be the master of Dai Viet, and there will be a lot of shortages at that time.

However, the old man serving beside her has no shortage of opportunities to climb up.

Let's see, who makes it more comfortable for her...?
  "...Yes, I thank the Queen Mother for your support. I will do my job well." The female officer quickly expressed her loyalty.

Her previous thoughts were completely thrown out of her mind.

I never thought about what would happen to Queen Mother Yin once she failed.

...

Mingguang Palace.

Dark water prison everywhere.

Meng Lingzi was immersed in fishy and smelly water from the chest down, and from time to time a fat rat crawled beside it, its chirping sound seemed like a mockery.

This place is so eerie and quiet that it makes people feel terrified.

With a creak, the wooden board above the water prison was opened.

Shoot out light.

A ladder was lowered from above, and someone slowly came down.

Meng Lingzi's eyes felt slightly uncomfortable. He closed his eyes slightly and tried to adapt to the sudden bright light.

After a while, he opened his eyes. The man in front of me has an ordinary appearance and would be unrecognizable in a crowd.

"...Who are you?" Meng Lingzi's voice was hoarse.

"His Royal Highness' people are here to save you." Chang Huan briefly introduced himself, impaled the fat rat who didn't know fear with two pieces of wood, cut off the chain on Meng Lingzi's arm, and lifted him out of the sewage.

Meng Lingzi was left in there for several days, and because he hadn't eaten much, he felt so weak that he almost fell back.

Fortunately, Chang Huan supported him.

Meng Lingzi smiled bitterly, "...Thank you very much."

Chang Huan said straightforwardly: "Your Highness asked me to take good care of you."

"I'm sorry." After saying this, he stretched out his arms to hug Meng Lingzi and climbed up the wooden ladder neatly.

Meng Lingzi: "..."

Meng Lingzi's eyes were numb and he felt that he had no sense of dignity.

Anyway, it’s much better than being in a water prison with rats!

He is content.

Chang Huan was extremely fast and brought Meng Lingzi to the East Palace in an instant.

He asked someone to boil water, and after Meng Lingzi finished washing and eating some food, he said: "His Highness said that you should stay here first... I will arrange your place after the matter is settled."

Meng Lingzi expressed his gratitude, "Thank you for me, His Royal Highness."

Chang Huan glanced at him and agreed calmly.

Looking at Meng Lingzi's pale face, Chang Huan frowned and said, "It's not peaceful these days. Just stay in the East Palace and don't go out wandering around."

Lest this person make any mistakes and make His Highness feel that he is not doing things well.

Meng Lingzi was originally thin, but after being locked up and tortured for several days, he was now even more out of shape.

Only because his bones are well connected, not only does it not affect his appearance, but it also adds a bit of pitiable fragile beauty.

"Well, I am sensible and will not bring trouble to you." Meng Lingzi said with a smile.

Chang Huan felt strange.

Why can this person still laugh? !

Doesn’t the injury on your body hurt? Isn’t the family feud yet to be avenged?

……don't know!
  Really unable to understand, Chang Huan said goodbye and left.

After he left, the smile on Meng Lingzi's face continued to grow, and she was happy from the bottom of her heart.

How could he not be happy with the prospect of revenge.

I just wish I couldn’t fire off cannons to celebrate.

At this moment, Chang Huan came back again.

He stopped in front of Meng Lingzi and said, "Uncle Yin Guo is dead. His body has just been brought back. You have one less enemy. Should I say congratulations or pity you?"

He asked seriously. Meng Lingzi was startled and said with a smile, "Congratulations."

"Okay." Chang Huan said seriously, "Congratulations, you have one less enemy."

"..." Meng Lingzi felt that the people around the prince were surprised and thanked him: "Thank you."

Chang Huan nodded, and this time he really left.

Meng Lingzi sat in the yard, feeling the quiet time he had not experienced for a long time, and he remembered the past.

He was studying under the jujube tree in the yard, while his mother-in-law was making shoes and clothes for him and his family. When he was tired, he went to the kitchen to make some pastries for him to eat. His mother-in-law didn't have many skills, so she always had to be coaxed to make him eat more. A few mouthfuls...

It’s a pity that the soft but sweet osmanthus cake can no longer be eaten!
  The familiar yard is gone, and the people waiting for him will never come back...

Meng Lingzi raised his head and suppressed the moisture in his eyes.

After a while, he quietly recited an article silently.

He whispered hoarsely, his voice full of longing.

"Dad, my son can already memorize that lengthy article..."

"Mom, my kid wants to eat the sweet-scented osmanthus cake you made..."

"Brother, go hide. Brother is free and can play catch and seek with you."
