Love the concubine

Chapter 371 It's Just an Excuse
Looking at Ling Wuying approaching, Ling Wuyue still maintained a gentle smile, and called out kindly: "Second brother, you are here."

But Ling Wuxu nodded slightly to those who came: "Second Brother."

Seeing this, Ling Wuying also stopped, nodded slightly to Ling Wuyue with a distant expression, and then looked at Ling Wuxu who was beside him: "When did you come back?"

Seeing that he took the initiative to ask himself, Ling Wuxu was a little surprised at first, and then he replied leisurely: "I came back after receiving the invitation from my father. I arrived in Chang'an in the middle of the night last night, but I didn't expect that this morning, I just received the news that my father is seriously ill."

When Ling Wuxu said this, Ling Wuyue beside him couldn't help but feel a little strange.

When he saw Ling Wuxu before, he was a little surprised, because Chang'an City is very far away in Yucheng, even if it is fast, it will take two days to get there. How could Ling Wuxu come back in such a timely manner?
It's just that he never expected that it was his father who summoned him back!But at this juncture, the emperor called Ling Wuxu back, what was he going to do?
Ling Wuyue was puzzled, but Ling Wuying didn't say anything after hearing Ling Wuxu's answer, and instead saw Eunuch Chen walking out of the emperor's bedroom.

"Eldest Prince, King Yu, and Prince Ping." Eunuch Chen greeted the three of them one by one as soon as he came out, but his eyes finally fell on Ling Wuying.

"Prince Ping, the Holy Majesty told you to come and then went in, saying that he wanted to see you."

Hearing what Eunuch Chen said, something flashed in Ling Wuyue's eyes, but on the surface he said to Ling Wuying sternly: "Since the father wants to see the second younger brother, then the second younger brother should go in quickly, don't you?" Keep father waiting for a long time."

Ling Wuying didn't respond to his words, but just glanced at Eunuch Chen's back lightly, then motioned for Eunuch Chen to lead the way, and strode in.

Seeing them go in, Ling Wuyue didn't follow, because Eunuch Chen had already made it very clear just now that what the emperor wanted to see was Ling Wuying, so he didn't need to make fun of himself with the past.

In the bedroom at this time, apart from the imperial physician, there were several princes standing in front of the dragon couch, and because they felt someone coming in from behind, they all turned their heads to look.

After seeing that the person who came was Ling Wuying, those people who had been booing in front of the emperor all of a sudden quieted down, and all of them looked at him steadfastly.

"Is Ying'er coming?" The emperor who was lying on the bed seemed to see Ling Wuying, so he raised his finger.

Ling Wuying's eyes were fixed, and then he walked towards the dragon couch, and finally came to a position a few steps away from the emperor, bowed his hands and said: "I have seen my father."

Before Ling Wuying came in, there were several people standing beside the emperor, but now as soon as they saw Ling Wuying coming, these people stepped aside one after another and did not make a sound.

After saluting, Ling Wuying raised her head and glanced forward, only to see that the person on the bed had a sallow complexion, and it was unknown if it was because of illness that he had lost a lot of weight.

At this time, the emperor opened his eyes, and two cloudy eyeballs protruded, as if they would fall out if he didn't pay attention, which looked very scary.

Seeing that Ling Wuying was indeed coming, the emperor's mood fluctuated a bit, and then he raised his hand with difficulty, signaling to Eunuch Chen at the side to send everyone else out.

Seeing the situation, Eunuch Chen immediately invited everyone out obediently, and in the end only Ling Wuying was left here.

Seeing this situation, Ling Wuying's eyes changed slightly, but the expression on his face was still very calm. No one could see what was going on in his heart at the moment.

Ling Wuyue, who had been staying outside to talk to Ling Wuxu, was always in the bedroom at this time, thinking about the emperor letting Ling Wuying in, what was the matter?
Ling Wuxu could obviously feel that when the person in front of him was talking to him, he was a little absent-minded, so he smiled and said: "Brother Huang's mind is not here, why don't you go in and see for yourself."

Hearing Ling Wuxu's words, Ling Wuyue suddenly reacted, and looked back at him, only to see that he was looking at him with a smile that was not a smile.

Ling Wuyue really wanted to go in and have a look, but he couldn't go in alone, then he changed his mind, looked at Ling Wuxu and said: "I don't know what's going on with the father's body, third brother, if not, we can go in together Let's go in and have a look?"

Knowing that he wanted to use himself as a shield, Ling Wuxu didn't care, and then he replied: "Actually, I have already gone in just now, but I didn't see clearly the condition of the father. Since the emperor said it together, then it's time to go in." Let's go together."

Hearing this, Ling Wuyue nodded immediately, turned around and was about to go in with Ling Wuxu, but saw that everyone inside had retreated, and then the imperial physician and Eunuch Chen also came out.

Seeing this scene, Ling Wuyue couldn't help looking at Eunuch Chen suspiciously, and asked, "Eunuch Chen, what is this?"

"The emperor said that he has something to discuss with Prince Ping alone. If the eldest prince wants to visit the emperor, please go in later." Eunuch Chen replied truthfully.

After Ling Wuyue heard it, suspicion suddenly arose in his heart, but on the surface he replied lightly: "So that's the case, then I'll wait."

After finishing speaking, he walked to the side and stood with his hands behind his back. He didn't say another word, but he heard the remarks of other princes.

"Fortunately, as soon as we heard that the father was ill, we immediately went to the palace to visit the father. As a result, when the third brother came, the father kicked us out. After all, we are still not as good as the God of War. ah!"

It was the sixth prince Ling Wuyu who was speaking at this moment, and his tone of voice was clearly sarcasm.

When the other princes heard this, they all nodded and said yes, and some even began to whisper quietly, whether the emperor left Ling Wuying alone, might it be because he was going to hand over the throne to him.

And what they said is exactly what Ling Wuyue thinks in his heart, but he will not be like these brainless people who can't control his mouth. Even though he has doubts in his heart, he will definitely not just like this speak out.

At the same time, in the bedroom.

After Eunuch Chen invited everyone out, the emperor struggled by himself and wanted to sit up from the bed, but because he was suffering from illness and his body was very weak, it was already very difficult to sit up.

From the beginning to the end, Ling Wuying just stood aside quietly, motionless like a dummy.

Seeing this, the emperor could only sigh helplessly, and then said to him with considerable difficulty: "Ying'er, come and help the emperor."

Seeing him open his mouth, Ling Wuying glanced at him with his hands behind his back, and finally walked over, helped him up from the bed, let him rest on the head of the bed, then backed away, still did not say anything. In a word.

Seeing his indifferent expression and the alienation towards him, the emperor sighed again: "You have been like this since you were a child, and you have always been reluctant to speak. Only when I ask you, you will If you answer, you will have a word or two with me."

"But every time you answer, I'm so angry that I almost vomit blood. Sometimes I even wonder if I owed you too much in my previous life, so you are angry with me in this life."

Ling Wuying listened quietly at the side, his expression still unchanged, and he didn't make a sound. Seeing this, the emperor's eyes showed a bit of sadness.

"I know that because of your mother and concubine, you have always hated me in your heart. As a result, you have never given me a good face over the years." Speaking of this, the emperor gave him a sideways look.

If it were someone else who dared to treat him like this, he would have died many times, but for Ling Wuying, he was really satisfied with his son, that's why he tolerated his rudeness and disrespect to him time and time again.

Hearing the emperor talking about his mother and concubine, Ling Wuying's calm expression finally showed a slight change. Although the change was too small to be noticed, the emperor caught it.

"I admit that I am indeed ashamed of your mother and concubine, but you must also understand that in this royal family, there are too many such things happening, and it is impossible for me to take care of all of them. "

"Father sent all the emperor's younger brothers out, just to tell my ministers this?" Ling Wuying finally spoke, but if he seemed a little impatient, if you look carefully at this time, you will find that his There seemed to be a chill in the eyes.

In Ling Wuying's eyes, what the emperor is saying now is just making excuses for his wrong doings!

If he had cared a little bit about his concubine mother back then, he wouldn't have let her die in depression in that deserted palace alone in the end!

Seeing that Ling Wuying seemed a little impatient, the emperor didn't get angry with him, because he knew that his time was numbered, and if he got angry with this kid again at this time, he would only be making himself unhappy.

After a pause, the emperor finally put one hand on the edge of the bed, looked weakly at the person in front of him and said, "Now I'm almost dying, can't you not show a cold face to me?"

Hearing this, Ling Wuying looked at the person sitting on the bed indifferently, and said, "It's not the first day Father has known Erchen, and Erchen has always had this expression. If Father doesn't want to look, Erchen can go out."

"You cough, cough, cough." Before the emperor finished speaking, he coughed violently, and he couldn't catch his breath for a long time.

Seeing him so out of breath, Ling Wuying couldn't bear it after all, so she took the initiative to walk over after a pause, and patted his back to help him calm down.

After finally recovering his breath, the emperor glanced at Ling Wuying beside him, and couldn't help but feel a little relieved in his heart. This kid is really hard-spoken and soft-hearted, and in fact he still cares about his father.

Thinking of this, the emperor waved his hand at him, and after Ling Wuying took two steps back, he finally turned to the topic and said to him: "I left you alone because I have something to tell you."
