Chapter 54

Zhan Lingze understands what the emperor means. If she continues to make big moves to cultivate her power in the future, it will definitely attract the attention of other princes and powers. How can they not persecute herself? Will be powerless!Yes, the safest strategy is to hide your edge and brake with static!
"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong..."

Zhan Lingze has now become full of guilt. If the emperor hadn't told him all this today, he would probably be in danger in the future. How could such a big ambition not attract the attention of others.

"It doesn't matter... I finally revealed this secret that I have been hiding in my heart for 25 years today, and I feel less burdened in my heart. It's just that my health is getting worse, but I don't know if I can hear you call me with my own ears. Father!"

The emperor looked at Zhan Lingze expectantly, he just hoped that he would say those two words, and he would be satisfied.

But Zhan Lingze didn't respond for a long time.

Although he could understand what his biological parents did, he still couldn't accept it for a while.

He really couldn't scream.

"Your Majesty, forgive me... I can't do it now..." Zhan Lingze's face was stubborn and ruthless.

The Emperor's eyes finally dimmed, and he could also understand his son, this fact was too sudden for him.

"It seems you hate me?"

Apart from disappointment, no other emotions could be seen on the emperor's face.

"No... I don't hate the emperor, if I were a minister, I would do that..."

Zhan Lingze's expression was calm, and a deep sadness welled up between his brows and eyes, but he didn't dare to look up at his father.

"Forget it, I won't force you anymore. I will give you some time. I think it will take some time for you to accept this fact. I will definitely wait for that day and hear you call me Emperor Father..."

Although he was disappointed, he was also relieved, as long as his child didn't hate him, time would let him accept all of this, and it would be all right!

"Thank you, Your Majesty... I still want to ask one more thing!"

Zhan Lingze no longer entangled in this matter, but the purpose of coming today has not been achieved, since he is the emperor's own flesh and blood, he wonders if he can spare Yan Ji's life for his own sake.

"I know what you want to ask... You have always paid no attention to women's affairs. Today you came to ask me for that woman in person, which shows that she must have a high status in your heart. And I just promised to help you, I won't break my promise, and I believe in my emperor's vision! Don't worry, I won't blame her, after all, you are all right!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty..." The gloom on Zhan Lingze's face suddenly dissipated, and there was joy in his eyes.

"I didn't cherish the person I loved well in the past, you must not repeat the same mistakes now, you must treat her well... must not let down my hopes for you!"

The emperor had obviously entrusted his unfinished missions and tasks to his son at this time. In fact, he was a person who valued love and righteousness in his heart, but in the end he still betrayed his beloved.But now that his son can desperately come to beg himself, take responsibility for the mistakes he once made, and pay for what he loves, he also has some comfort.

Zhan Lingze suddenly felt a little worried. Although the emperor will let her go, what should I do about those rumors? If a woman is so humiliated, if she is still being talked about all day long, she will definitely not be able to bear it. I don't know how the words will be passed on.

"If you are afraid that Miss Yan Ji will be wronged, you must find out the spreader of the rumors as soon as possible, and I will help you secretly stop these rumors. Don't worry...don't forget that there is another victim of this rumor, He certainly won't sit idly by!" The emperor saw Zhan Lingze's thoughts and hurriedly comforted him.

After hearing this, Zhan Lingze suddenly realized.Although the result he found was related to Baixuan, even if Baixuan had some intentions, the old Hou Ye was still around, so how could he let something that would damage the statement of the Hou Ye Mansion happen.

"Yes, the victim is of course the Lord Hou's Mansion, and the people in the Lord Hou's Mansion will definitely try their best to curb this rumor! Your majesty is wise!"

For now, the only way is to curb the rumors as much as possible, there is no other way, as long as Yan Ji can be safe.

Zhan Lingze suddenly realized that it was already late at night, and the emperor had to go to court tomorrow, so he had to go to bed.

He really couldn't stay any longer.

"Your Majesty, I know what to do. Your Majesty, pay attention to the dragon body and go to bed quickly. I will leave now."

Zhan Lingze is respectful and respectful, and behaves like a monarch and a minister.

Hey, Huang'er, he still regards me as a high-ranking emperor, not as his father.That's all, that's all...

"Okay, you should go back and rest too! After a few days, you will set off with the national teacher to subdue the beast. You can see some scenery along the way and relax..."

The emperor's opinion was obvious, so he naturally asked him to take Yan Ji with him to temporarily avoid the limelight of the rumors in the capital.By the way, the two of them can cultivate more feelings.

In fact, Zhan Lingze also had this intention a long time ago. At that time, he had already realized that Yan Ji wanted to go with them, but the national teacher did not allow it. However, with Yan Ji's temperament, it is impossible to give up. If he helps her, the national teacher will It's not easy to stop.

Zhan Lingze walked out of the emperor's bedroom and let out a long sigh.

When I came here today, I was already prepared. The emperor was in a depressed mood, and I was not sure that I could convince him, and maybe he would be punished, but I didn't expect to have an unexpected harvest.

Knowing the mystery of his own life experience, he also knew that the emperor had the idea of ​​letting him inherit the throne, but in fact, this harvest did not make him too happy.It turned out that he still had special feelings for the emperor, and he knew that he was the best person to him after the death of the old Chang'an king, but now that he knew that he was his son, he felt a little ridiculous.

If he wasn't the emperor's own son, he probably wouldn't have treated him so well for so many years.

However, in his opinion, the emperor's feelings for his mother are real, and Zhan Lingze understood everything from his eyes and expression.

Forget it, since God arranged all this, it means that it is God's will. Since the emperor intends to let him inherit, he doesn't need to spend too much effort to win over power and manage everything.With the help of the emperor, the chances of winning are better.

But knowing this all of a sudden, it seems that he has no goal to fight for.

After seeing the emperor's melancholy and painful expression just now, he also realized that the throne is not as good as he thought at the beginning. Maybe if the emperor didn't succeed at the beginning, but chose to go outside the Great Wall with his mother, life would be better than it is now. happiness.

Zhan Lingze did not go back to the mansion, but went to the darkroom of the palace with the emperor's letter.

The dark and damp dark room was originally a place for criminals in the palace, but now Si Kou Xun Xiang is locked in it.

Although it was already late at night, but the candles were still on, Zhan Lingze walked into the cell in the dark room, and saw Si Kou Xunxiang was drunk, it seemed that the emperor gave him all the wine, and asked him to use it to get rid of it He is sad, but he is even more worried when he uses wine to relieve his sorrow. He must be even more sad now.

Zhan Lingze doesn't know the past of Si Kou Xunxiang and Yan Ji, but she understands his sincerity towards her, and she doesn't need to think too much to know that it was he who took the initiative to take the blame on himself, and that's why he was locked in this dark room Well, the emperor is concerned about his merits, so of course he will not be punished, this is just a tactic to delay the attack, and then let him out after the Yan Ji is dealt with, so this turmoil will end.

"Ji'er, Ji'er..." Si Kou Xunxiang felt someone walking in, so he staggered and ran forward.

Because he drank too much wine, he couldn't stand still and fell to the ground.

"It's me... National Teacher, why are you so drunk?"

Zhan Lingze sighed repeatedly looking at Si Kou Xun Xiang's distressed appearance.

"My lord... my lord... why are you here? Did something happen to Ji'er?"

Sikou Xunxiang grabbed Zhan Lingze's legs and shook them violently.

The national teacher has always looked like a wise man, but today he tortured himself into such an appearance, which really makes people feel distressed.

Zhan Lingze knelt down to comfort her.

"National teacher, don't worry, the emperor has promised to spare Yan Ji, now I will send you out..."

Although Si Kou Xunxiang was drunk, he was very sober in his heart, and looked at Zhan Lingze in disbelief after hearing this.

How could Zhan Lingze have the ability to persuade the emperor?

"Is what you said true? The emperor spared Ji'er? Did he really spare her?"

Zhan Lingze nodded.

So Zhan Lingze left the palace with Sikou Xunxiang.

Zhan Lingze sent Si Kou Xun Xiang back to his residence, Si Kou Xun Xiang hurriedly wanted to see Yan Ji without caring about everything else.

But Zhan Lingze stopped him.

"My lord, Yan Ji has been sent to a safe place by the sixth prince. You don't have to worry. Get a good night's rest. The next day, after I ask the sixth prince, we will go find Miss Yan Ji together. Bar."

Zhan Lingze knew that Yan Ji must have fallen asleep at this time, and he was the one who secretly followed the sixth prince. Although he knew where Yan Ji was at this time, in order to prevent the sixth prince from suspecting and causing unnecessary trouble, tomorrow It would be better to ask him face to face.

Si Kou Xun Xiang was a little hesitant, because he was still worried about Yan Ji's safety.

"If the national teacher doesn't believe me, Shang can go find it by himself... This king is going back to sleep!"

Zhan Lingze got a little impatient, he took this drunk out of the palace and delivered it to his house in person, what else did he want.

After saying that, he went out of the mansion.

Si Kou Xunxiang thought about it carefully, and what Zhan Lingze said was also reasonable, so he also went in and let him rest.

Zhan Lingze originally planned to go back to the mansion to sleep, but as she walked, she unconsciously felt that she had reached the gate of the courtyard where the sixth prince sent someone to hide Yan Ji.

It's ridiculous to say that he didn't let the national teacher come over, but he himself was still worried and came to see Yan Ji.

He jumped in with one leap.

After finding Yan Ji's room, he entered quietly. At this time, Yan Ji had already fallen asleep, and the room was completely dark.Only a faint moonlight fell in, falling on the ground to cast a faint shadow.

Zhan Lingze walked to Yan Ji's window and saw that she was sleeping soundly. In the darkness, she vaguely saw that her eyebrows were furrowed, and her deep sorrow couldn't be resolved.
