Love the concubine

Chapter 373
After pausing for a while, Eunuch Chen looked at the palace people on the side again, and finally asked them to invite several overweight ministers and the prince into the palace.

When everyone saw this posture, it was clear that the emperor was going to make a will!I couldn't help but feel a little restless.

At this time, everyone raised their spirits. Although most of them knew that the chance of the emperor passing the throne to them was very small, but it would be good to know who the next monarch would be, and to establish a good relationship now.

At this time Ling Wuyue was standing in front of the crowd, feeling a faint sense of uneasiness in his heart, he couldn't help but glance at Ling Wuying who was standing on the other side, but saw that his expression was flat, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.

From the surface alone, Ling Wuyue couldn't see what he was thinking in his heart at the moment, and the more unpredictable he looked, the more suspicious Ling Wuyue felt in his heart.

Just like that, the time for half a stick of incense passed, and the people who were supposed to be there also came one after another, including Yun Zhenghai, King Yue, Duke Mo and several other high-ranking ministers.

There is also an extremely important person among them, that is Prince Ge who is over eighty years old.

Prince Ge is an old courtier who has experienced three dynasties. Because he is old and can no longer serve the country, the emperor allows him to take a post in Chang'an City to cultivate his life.

It is also because of this that people rarely see him.

The reason why he was invited here today is because the emperor intends to hand over the edict he has drawn up to Prince Ge for safekeeping in front of everyone, because among the people in the court, the one who is most worthy of his trust is Prince Ge.

Hand over the will to Prince Ge today, if one day he really dies, the will will not be tampered with by those snobs, so he can feel at ease.

Everyone watched the emperor hand over the edict to Prince Ge. At the moment of handing over, everyone's eyes fell on the bright yellow edict, and they all wanted to know what was inside.

Ling Wuyue just glanced at the edict at the beginning, and then looked away.

It's not because he doesn't want to know what's in it, it's just that he knows better than others how to restrain his emotions.

The queen was the closest person to Emperor Li. Seeing the emperor handing over the edict to Prince Ge, she wished she could go through the edict and see the contents clearly.

Although she now really wants to know whether the name in the edict is Ling Wuyue or Ling Wuying, but in front of the emperor, she can't express her urgency.

After Prince Ge received the edict, the queen made a sad look, and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, you are just a little sick, why are you so anxious to issue an edict?"

What the empress said seemed to be sincere, but after the emperor heard it, he said unhurriedly: "I am very clear about my body. This is a political matter of the court. You, a woman, should not ask about it." That's a lot."

Although in Xuanrui Kingdom, there is no rule that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, but as the queen who is the lord of the harem, if she asks too much at this time, it will still cause objections.

Hearing the emperor's slightly dissatisfied tone, although the empress felt a little resentful in her heart, she could only answer yes with a light smile, and did not make any further remarks on this matter.

After dealing with these matters, the emperor asked everyone to leave first on the grounds that he had something to discuss with Prince Ge, leaving only Prince Ge inside, and no one knew what they said.

The queen was also kicked out by the emperor, and when she came out, her face was a little dark and unclear, but when she saw Ling Wuyue also coming out, she asked him to follow her back to her own palace.

There are some things that she still needs to discuss with Ling Wuyue.
After the rest of the princes came out, they all returned to their own palaces, and finally Ling Wuying and Ling Wuxu were left.

Originally, the two of them were going to leave the palace separately, but before the two of them had gone far, Eunuch Chen hurriedly chased after them and called them back.

"You two princes, please stay!"

Hearing the voice behind, the two stopped together, and when they looked back, they saw that Eunuch Chen had come in front of them, so Ling Wuxu asked first: "Eunuch Chen, is there anything else?"

"You two lords, it's like this. The emperor said that you live outside the palace. If you need to summon you temporarily, it would be too time-consuming and troublesome to come and go. So I asked the servants to tell the two lords, please stay here for a while. Stay in the palace."

Eunuch Chen explained to the two of them respectfully. After listening to Eunuch Chen's words, something flashed in Ling Wuying's eyes, and he didn't say whether he agreed or not.

But at this time, Ling Wuxu on the side said in a funny way: "This father wants to keep the second brother, but I can understand it. Why should I, the prince who throws away his hands, also stay?"

Hearing Ling Wuxu's words, Eunuch Chen immediately replied: "The Holy Majesty called King Yu back because he had something to discuss with King Yu, but now the Holy Majesty is too tired and has lost all energy."

"If King Yu stays in the palace, won't it be convenient for the emperor to summon him at any time after the emperor recovers?"

Hearing this, Ling Wuxu nodded lightly after thinking about it, and said: "That's true, anyway, I haven't been back for several years, so I just took this opportunity to look around in the palace."

"King Yu's bedroom has been cleaned all the time. Does King Yu still live there?" Eunuch Chen asked, and Ling Wuxu replied without thinking, "Anyway, I won't stay too long. , it's the same everywhere."

In this way, Eunuch Chen was about to ask the palace servants to take Ling Wuyue to his bedroom, but Ling Wuyue said directly: "Although I haven't been back for a long time, I still know the way to the palace. I can go there by myself."

"Second Brother, I will take my leave first!"

After speaking to Ling Wuying, Ling Wuxu turned around and left without looking back.

In fact, since Eunuch Chen came over just now, Ling Wuxu has already seen that Eunuch Chen should have something else to talk to Ling Wuying alone.

That being the case, there is no need for him to stay here. It is better to leave consciously. A few years have made him mature a lot, and he is no longer as arrogant and impolite as before.

"Prince Ping, the bedroom where you will stay temporarily has already been arranged. This servant will take you there, shall we?" As soon as Ling Wuxu left, Eunuch Chen bent down and respectfully made a gesture of invitation to Ling Wuying .

After Ling Wuying turned around in the direction he pointed, Eunuch Chen stood aside and led him to the palace corridor on the side.

"Prince Ping is also going to stay in the palace for a while. Just now, His Majesty specially reminded you of some things." Eunuch Chen walked forward with Ling Wuying, and seeing no one passing by on both sides, he followed him with a strange expression. Talked about some things.

"Actually, during this period of time, the palace is not very peaceful. When Prince Ping is alone in the palace, you must be careful and pay attention."

"Oh? Could it be that something happened in the palace?" Ling Wuying asked unhurriedly after hearing the words. After hearing this, Eunuch Chen hesitated for a while, but finally told the matter.

Anyway, this is what the emperor ordered to tell Prince Ping, and there is nothing wrong with him saying it now.

"In the past month, there have always been people in the palace who died inexplicably. The death was very miserable, but it was impossible to find out who did it. Later, the emperor asked the witch god, and the witch god said that it was because there were evil spirits in the palace. cause trouble."

Speaking of this, Eunuch Chen's tone of voice was obviously tinged with fear, and it cannot be said that he was timid, after all, there were evil spirits in this palace, just listening to it made people feel frightened!

After knowing this, the emperor issued a death order, so the matter must not be publicized, and at the same time, he asked the witch god to find out this evil spirit as soon as possible, but there is no news yet.

Because the emperor issued an order, no one dared to bring up this matter casually, and did not spread it to the public, but everyone in the palace knew the truth, so it was inevitable that people would be panicked.

Seeing Eunuch Chen mentioning the witch god, Ling Wuying thought of the sinister and vicious Yun Shaoyan, and at the same time thought of the Hades Gu incident last time.

If so, Ling Wuying's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he said: "It is pure nonsense to say that there are evil spirits at work! According to this king, it is just someone spreading rumors!"

When Eunuch Chen heard the words, he wanted to say something more, but he didn't say anything after all. He just reminded: "No matter what is causing the trouble, Prince Ping must stay vigilant."

Ling Wuying didn't reply, but while they were talking, Eunuch Chen had already brought him to Qiongyu Palace, not far from Yun Shaoyan's alchemy room.

At first Ling Wuying felt strange why he was arranged to live here, but after hearing Eunuch Chen's explanation, he finally understood the reason.

"This Qiongyu Palace was specially ordered by the empress to leave it to you, Prince Ping. The empress knows that you like a quiet environment, and the environment here is just in line with your preferences."

Hearing this, an unknown emotion flashed quickly in Ling Wuying's deep eyes.

The empress would definitely not have such a good intention to arrange a place for him. Since she let him live in the Qiongyu Palace, there must be other purposes. It seems that he really needs to pay more attention.

Ling Wuying thought so in her heart, but there was nothing unusual on the surface.

After Eunuch Chen arranged the affairs here, he didn't stay any longer, leaving two palace servants at Ling Wuying's beck and call, and then retreated respectfully.

In the afternoon of the same day, outside the Duke Mo's mansion, Ling Wuxu was standing at the door asking to go in to see Mo Yinyue, but he was stopped by the gatekeeper.

"Prince Yu, my lady is really not in the mansion right now, please go back."

The servant's tone was very helpless, but Ling Wuxu refused to leave, and then said: "Your lady is not here, isn't your master here too? This king is here to drink tea with your master, hurry up Let Duke Mo come out!"
