Love the concubine

Chapter 372 What He Knows

Hearing what the emperor said, Ling Wuying remained silent, waiting for his next words.

In this way, the emperor said slowly: "Because I listened to the words of the witch god a few days ago, I have always kept an illusion in my heart, thinking that I can really live forever."

"But until now, I have come to my senses and realized how ridiculous and unrealistic my thoughts were at that time." Having said this, the emperor sighed heavily.

The emperor's current appearance seemed to be introspecting again, but Ling Wuying still looked indifferent, and did not express his thoughts on this.

Seeing this, the emperor paused for a moment and then said to him: "Ying'er, I know that I may not be able to pass this test, but I cannot be without a master for this great country!"

Hearing what he said, Ling Wuying's eyes changed slightly, and he already guessed in his heart what the emperor would say next, but he still didn't speak.

At this time, the emperor felt a little emotional. Before that, he originally planned to choose one of Ling Wuying and Ling Wuyue to inherit his throne.

But later, he accidentally discovered something that prompted him to rule out Ling Wuyue, so now only Ling Wuying is left as the only candidate.

"Although you were often angry with me before, in my heart, I am quite satisfied with you." At this point, the emperor had already made a decision.

Immediately afterwards, he said to Ling Wuying in a serious tone: "I have already drawn up the edict, and later I will send someone to Prince Ge to deliver the edict to him."

"When I'm gone someday, you will protect the Ling family for me!"

The emperor has made it very clear, he is going to pass the throne to Ling Wuying, and now there is no other suitable candidate except Ling Wuying.

In fact, since the emperor kicked out the other princes just now, Ling Wuying had already guessed in his heart that this would be the result, and he didn't seem too surprised when he heard the emperor say it himself.

It's just that if this kind of news falls on someone else, the other party will definitely be very happy, but after Ling Wuying heard it, he didn't seem very happy.

After being silent for a moment, Ling Wuying finally said to the person on the bed: "I'm afraid my son can't bear such a heavy responsibility, so I'd better ask my father to choose someone else!"

I thought Ling Wuying would be happy to accept it, but unexpectedly he refused without hesitation. The emperor was immediately puzzled, but he still insisted: "I have already decided that the throne will be passed on to you. Very relieved."

"You don't want to refuse! Cough, cough, cough." The emperor persisted, and then he put his fist against his mouth and coughed.

Although the emperor has said so clearly, Ling Wuying still insists on his decision: "I can also clearly tell my father that I have no interest in your throne!"

"In order to avoid another transfer in the future, I should ask my father to leave this qualification to those who are interested."

The meaning of Ling Wuying's words is that he doesn't want that position. If the emperor insists on giving him that position, he will still give it away in the future.

Since the result will be the same sooner or later, it is better not to give it to him now, and save trouble in the future.

"you"

Hearing the meaning of Ling Wuying's words, the emperor was so angry that he almost fainted, but Ling Wuying still had that neither happy nor angry expression.

After a long time like this, the emperor finally calmed down, looked at him again and asked: "You have to think clearly, if you regret it in the future"

"I will never regret it!" Before the emperor could finish speaking, Ling Wuying firmly interrupted him.

Seeing that he really didn't want that position, the emperor could only sigh helplessly after all, and said: "Forget it, you have never been an obedient son, and I have gotten used to it."

From childhood to adulthood, no matter what Ling Wuying did, he liked to fight against him. The more he asked his son to do something, the more this kid would go in the opposite direction.

After so many years, he has also understood Ling Wuying's temper clearly. If it is something he is unwilling to do, even if it is to put a knife on his neck, he will not change his mind.

In this way, the emperor had no choice but to give in and said: "I won't force you anymore, I can choose another person to inherit the throne, but you have to promise me one condition."

As if worried that Ling Wuying would refuse, before he could speak, the emperor said again: "This is my last wish, you agree, and I probably won't have a chance to ask you anything in the future."

Speaking of this, the emperor sighed softly, but looked at the people standing beside him without any trace of his eyes.

Ling Wuying's expression became a little complicated at this time, and after a while, he finally said nothing. The emperor knew that he was acquiescing in this way, so he told him about his conditions.

But here, Ling Wuyue and others who had been waiting outside saw that the people inside had not come out for a long time, and their suspicions intensified.

It has been so long, and there is still no movement inside. Is the father really planning to pass the throne to the second brother?Thinking of this, a stern look quickly flashed across Ling Wuyue's eyes.

At this time, the empress also came down to the outside of the bedroom surrounded by the palace people, and when everyone saw it, they immediately bowed to her: "See mother empress."

"See the Empress."

The queen walked over and glanced at everyone, seeing everyone standing outside, she couldn't help feeling very strange, she waved her hand to avoid everyone's salute, and asked, "Why are they all outside?"

Hearing this, all the princes looked at each other, but none of them stood up to answer.

Eunuch Chen was about to answer, but Ling Wuyue stood up first: "Mother, it's like this, it seems that the father and the second emperor have some important business to discuss, and no one else is allowed to enter and disturb, so the minister and the other emperors are here. Will wait here."

"There is such a thing?" The Queen's expression was slightly puzzled, but she quickly returned to her normal expression. She glanced at Eunuch Chen who was standing at the door of the bedroom, and walked over directly, but when she just walked to the door, she was caught Eunuch Chen stopped him.

"Bold, didn't you see that this is the empress?" The maid beside the empress immediately reprimanded her harshly, and Eunuch Chen lowered his head in fear, but he still refused to let her go.

"Your Majesty, forgive me. The Emperor has ordered before that no one is allowed to enter without his permission. Please don't embarrass the slave."

Seeing this, the maid was about to say something, but was interrupted by the queen's eyes, and then she looked at Eunuch Chen and said: "Since it is the emperor's order, I naturally dare not disobey it."

"It's just that this palace learned that the Holy Majesty's appetite has not been very good for the past two days, so he specially prepared some light rice porridge. The weather is cold now. If the rice porridge cools down for a while, it will not be easy to eat."

Hearing what the queen said, Eunuch Chen glanced behind her and saw that one of the maids was indeed holding a cup, so he quickly bowed his head and nodded in agreement.

"The empress has a heart, if the majesty knows, he will be very happy! In fact, Prince Ping has been in for a while, and it is time to come out. When the slaves go in first to report to the majesty, the empress has to wait for a while. "

Eunuch Chen's words have already reached this point, and the queen couldn't say anything more, so she nodded in agreement: "Alright, then you can report it."

Hearing this, Eunuch Chen immediately answered yes, then turned around and was about to enter, but saw Ling Wuying walking out from inside.

"Lord Ping"

Seeing Ling Wuying coming out, Eunuch Chen immediately bowed to him, and Ling Wuying saw that the queen was here, so he cupped his hands and bowed slightly to her: "I have seen the queen mother."

Seeing him coming out, the Queen's eyes flashed an undetectable emotion, and said lightly: "Ying'er has finally come out, I'm afraid I can go in now, right?"

Ling Wuying was silent when he heard the words, and Eunuch Chen had no further objections, and then the queen didn't wait for Eunuch Chen to go in to report, and directly led the maid into the bedroom.

As soon as the queen's front foot entered, Ling Wuyue immediately walked up to Ling Wuying and asked, "Second brother, father, how is the situation now?"

In fact, he wanted to know what the emperor and Ling Wuying had said in the room for such a long time just now, but he couldn't ask directly now, otherwise his intentions would be suspicious.

Hearing Ling Wuyue's question, Ling Wuying glanced at everyone, and seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, she said to Ling Wuyue: "Brother Huang, if you really want to know how your father is doing, why don't you just go in and see for yourself?" knew."

Hearing this, Ling Wuyue's heart jumped inexplicably, and he couldn't help feeling a little strange why Ling Wuying would suddenly speak to himself in such a tone.

Could it be that he knew something?
Guessing uneasily in his heart, Ling Wuyue then saw that Eunuch Chen, who had gone in with the queen just now, came out again at this time.

"My lords and princes, Your Majesty invites you to enter."

Hearing what Eunuch Chen said, Ling Wuyue couldn't help but glance at Ling Wuying, seeing that his expression was still calm, he took the lead and walked in first.

After Ling Wuyue walked in, Ling Wuxu and the other princes followed closely behind.

Because of talking with Ling Wuying for a long time before, the emperor's physical strength was exhausted a lot, and at this time he became weaker than before.

When everyone entered, they saw the emperor sitting half leaning on the head of the bed, and the empress was beside him, carefully feeding him porridge.

Seeing that everyone had already entered, the emperor drank the last mouthful of porridge and waved to the queen. The queen immediately understood and handed over the cup and bowl in her hand to the maid beside her.

Afterwards, the emperor gave Eunuch Chen another look.

Seeing the situation, Eunuch Chen immediately stepped forward and listened to him. After listening to what the emperor said, Eunuch Chen straightened up again and looked at the crowd.
