The concubine was reborn, and the cold prince was made red in the face

Ling Xiao took out the ointment and applied it carefully on his face at night.

He didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but in just one day, he felt as if the scars on his face had smoothed out a lot.

He had already made up his mind. Not within three months, but as long as one month, as soon as the scar on his face really faded and became smoother, he would tell Zuo Xiang Ningming.

When Ling Xiao thought that he would be with Zuo Xiangning in the future, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.

Zuo Xiangning on the other side also didn't sleep well all night.

Whether he was Ling Xiao or not? This question troubled her and she didn't sleep all night.

The next day, when she saw the masked man again, her eyes always followed his figure involuntarily.

When she found that the man was still the same as before, her restless heart slowly calmed down.

If he is really Ling Xiao, he can still treat her so calmly, which only proves that he is not important enough in his heart.

If he was really that important, he would not be willing to let himself worry and feel sad.

No matter what happened to him, he would want to contact her as soon as possible and tell her the truth.

But he didn't.

If he wasn't Ling Xiao, wouldn't he be misunderstood if he paid so much attention to him now?

Ling Xiao had already noticed that Zuo Xiangning's eyes were wandering around him.

He also knew that Zuo Xiangning had doubts in her heart.

He hesitated in his heart, should he find a suitable opportunity to explain the matter to her?

But before he could find a suitable opportunity, he received news from the palace, and the emperor announced that he would enter the palace immediately.

He just entered the palace yesterday, and the emperor announced that he will enter the palace again today?

Ling Xiao didn't dare to neglect and hurriedly entered the palace without even changing his clothes.

The emperor's face was pale and he was leaning against the dragon chair with a weak breath. When he saw him coming in, he smiled and waved to him, "Young man, this time, you came the fastest."

Seeing the emperor's words, Ling Xiao paused several times and frowned involuntarily.

"Liu Qian said a long time ago that I have run out of gas and my time is running out." The emperor smiled and asked Xiao Dezi to hand a box to Ling Xiao, "I'm afraid I won't have the chance to see you marry and have children. This is what I reward your future wife."

Ling Xiao's tears instantly overflowed from his eyes, "Your Majesty, nothing will happen to you."

"I know my body myself." The emperor took out another imperial decree and gave it to him: "You put this away, and after I leave, you take this out and give it to the second son."

This is a posthumous edict. The emperor is preparing to pass the throne to the King of Chu, so that Ling Xiao can make a contribution in front of the new emperor.

He now no longer has the status of the Zhongyuan Hou Crown Prince, and he no longer even has the surname "Ling". Even if the emperor gave him the emperor's surname, it would be an unfair name. Without the emperor's protection, whether he is in the capital or in the In the court, everyone is helpless and alone.

But with this edict, it's different.

He is the hero who made the King of Chu ascend the throne. Within three to five years, the King of Chu will have to respect him.

He will only have three to five years to gain a foothold in the court.

Ling Xiao sat there and looked at the emperor, not knowing what else he could say.

"I have gone through too many storms and ups and downs in my life, and now I can finally take a break." The Emperor

His eyes opened slightly, revealing a deep sense of exhaustion and relief. His hand grabbed Ling Xiao beside him,

He said in a weak and trembling voice: "You and the second brother have a good relationship. Look after him for me and help him be a wise king. Don't insult our surname 'Murong'."

Ling Xiao nodded vigorously, "Don't worry."

"Xiao'er, this world does not belong to any one person. Only the benevolent can win the world. If the second brother is not worthy of his virtue, you should train Brother Hong well..." The emperor lowered his voice and said: "Actually, I don't care about these few of my own. My son is not very satisfied, but I think Brother Hong’s child is really good. I have seen him grow up since he was a child. Brother Hong’s child is smart and I guarantee that he will make no mistakes in the future.” “Don’t worry, His Highness the King of Chu will definitely live up to your expectations.” Ling Xiao hurriedly comforted.

"Okay, go back. I won't be able to breathe for a while. Come back tomorrow afternoon to make up for my stay."

Ling Xiao left the palace and went to Furui's pawnshop.

He couldn't pretend to be dead now, so he had to clean out the inside of Wufu Hall first.

He asked Changfeng to take twenty capable people to the east helm of Wufutang. In order to kill Zuo Xiangning, the master of the east helm actually hired nearly fifty killers, and he was tired of living.

"I asked Master Xiruo to wait for you there with his people, and quietly remove them. No one on the list will be left alive, and they will be eradicated."

There was a look of surprise on Changfeng's face, but he didn't ask anything, nodded in agreement, and immediately left the city with his men.

Ling Xiao sent people to Yangzhou again to bring Bingyu and the others back to the capital.

He also made arrangements everywhere, fearing that the emperor would be buried and there would be some trouble in the capital.

After everything was arranged, he sent someone to deliver the news to King Chu.

The King of Chu came to see him together with the person who delivered the news.

"Ling Xiao? You are still alive?" King Chu walked into the room in surprise and joy, looking at the mask on Ling Xiao's face, "Why are you wearing such a thing?"

"I have an injury on my face, so it's not convenient for me to see people." Ling Xiao explained.

"You are so good, you actually pretended to be dead!" King Chu stepped forward and punched Ling Xiao, "Today we brothers were all shocked when our father told us to make you the Marquis of Jingyuan and give you the surname 'Murong'. I thought my father was confused... Later, Xiao Dezi also said that he had met you, so we believed him."

Ling Xiao smiled bitterly and said: "I was originally planning to leave the capital and never come back, but the emperor was so kind to me and announced my entry to the capital, I had to obey."

"Father has been good to you since you were a child, and he is better than us sons." King Chu sighed: "He is so ill, and he summoned us brothers into the palace together, but all he talked about was you. I talked about it all the way to the fourth child with envy, even if he said he didn’t know about it, he thought you were a prince.”

Ling Xiao smiled and said: "The emperor is indeed very kind to me."

"Then what are you and the emperor going to sing?" King Chu asked in confusion: "You are obviously alive, but the emperor has given you two imperial edicts, but kept them secret. What is this situation?"

"The old bad debt between me and the Zhongyuan Marquis Mansion cannot be resolved for the time being, so the emperor wants to wait." Ling Xiao poured a cup of tea for King Chu and said with deep meaning: "However, important matters related to the country and the country , but the emperor has already made arrangements."

King Chu and Ling Xiao's eyes met for a moment, and suddenly a bold idea came to his mind.

His hand holding the tea cup trembled, and he said tentatively: "Ling Xiao, you and I are closer than brothers. You must help me in the future."

"Does this need to be said?" Ling Xiao nodded and touched him with a tea cup. "The emperor is not in good health. Please come to the palace to accompany him more often when you have time."

"Okay, I know." King Chu was overjoyed and drank the tea in one gulp, with an unnatural rosiness on his face.

"I still have something to tell the prince." Ling Xiao hesitated.

"Is there anything else you can't say to me?" King Chu's heart was racing with excitement, and he spoke with confidence, "If you have anything to say, just say it."

As soon as King Chu agreed, he felt a little regretful.

He thought Ling Xiao wanted him to help deal with the Zhongyuan Hou Mansion.

At this time, he did not dare to easily offend any powerful person in Beijing.

"On my way back to Beijing, I met Miss Zuo Si by chance," Ling Xiao stared at King Chu's expression and whispered, "She wanted to meet Princess Chu."

According to the emperor's wishes, he must stand with the King of Chu, so he wants to let the King of Chu know his relationship with Xiang Ning as soon as possible, and also find out the background of the King of Chu. Why is he looking for Zuo Xiangning? ?
