Evil King's Favorite Concubine

Chapter 507

Bao'er was waiting for Ye Lingxu in the tent, but neither of them came back, so Danxin in the palace couldn't fall asleep no matter what.Fortunately, before the second watch, Ye Lingxu brought Bao'er back.

"Why did you come back at this time, where did you go?" Dan Xin took Bao'er from Ye Lingxu's hand, carried Bao'er to the bed to rest, and then walked slowly to the front hall with Ye Lingxu.Seeing that Ye Lingxu was holding something in his hand, he frowned calmly, "What is this? You disappeared for a day because of this?"

Ye Lingxu nodded heavily, took Danxin's hand to the table, and carefully placed the things in his hand on the table, "You will know after looking at it."

Danxin opened the curtain with a confused face, and when she saw what was in front of her, she was completely stunned, "How could it be..."

She only dreamed about the dead Ju'er last night, and today she was thinking about setting up a memorial tablet for him in Qi State, but Ye Lingxu knew what she was thinking, and took the lead in doing what she had to do up.

"I know you can't let go of Ju'er. I was at fault for what happened back then. It's been so long now. I just hope you can live a good life. Juu'er's tombstone is in Weiguo. I have ordered people to clean it and burn incense every day. It’s just that you must also miss him very much, so I personally made this tablet for him today, and you will have something to say when you miss him in the future.”

Danxin stretched out his hand and slowly stroked the brand-new tablet in front of him. The workmanship is exquisite and exquisite, no wonder he has been missing all day. "Thank you." Dan Xin hugged the tablet tightly in her arms.

Ye Lingxu patted Danxin's head lightly with a smile, "Don't cry, my family is in the sky, and I hope we have a good life too."

Nodding with red eyes, she and Ye Lingxu placed the memorial tablet of the family in the royal ancestral temple of Qi State.Lighting incense, offering incense, and kowtow, finally comforted Juan'er's guilty heart, "Jian'er will definitely join a good family in the next life."

"Perhaps Bao'er is Juan'er's miss for us." Ye Lingxu gently wiped away the tears from Danxin's eyes.

Nodding lightly, "Although Bao'er is not your own, I have long regarded her as my own daughter. If you dare to dislike her for not being your own, just wait and see!" After finishing speaking, she raised her fist.

Ye Lingxu laughed, "Bao'er is your and my biological daughter, whoever dares to say she is not, I will ask someone to sew his mouth."

"It's more vicious than me." He said with a faint smile.

It was already the second watch when Ye Lingxu entered the palace, the two of them tossed about again, and it was almost dawn when they returned to the bedroom. "Tomorrow morning, why don't you go." Ye Lingxu took the opportunity to say.

Danxin's eyes widened suddenly, "What do you want to do?"

Looking at himself indifferently and full of guard, Ye Lingxu hurriedly explained, "I'm just worried that you are too tired, and I want you to take a rest."

"No, it's time for a while, remember to wake me up and go to bed..." After Danxin finished speaking, she fell into a deep sleep. She was too tired after a day of tossing around, and she didn't hear what Ye Lingxu said later.

"It's not good, Your Majesty, something happened in Chu!" The next day, Danxin woke up to the exclamation of the palace maid, and it was already a step late for Ye Lingxu to come with the soup.I wanted Danxin to drink the calming medicine before telling her the news, but unexpectedly...

Dan Xin suddenly woke up from the bed, looked at the court lady who came to report, "What's the matter, what happened to Chu Di?"

Seeing Ye Lingxu's dark eyes, the palace maid couldn't help swallowing, "Emperor Wei also knows, let him tell you." After finishing speaking, she quickly stepped back.

"What's wrong with Chu Di?" Dan Xin walked off the bed barefoot and came to Ye Lingxu's side.

Ye Lingxu picked her up, let her sit on the table, patted the soles of her feet, "Drink this first, and I'll tell you later."

"Okay." Danxin was eager to know, without asking what was in the bowl, and drank it all in one gulp.

Seeing Danxin drank the medicine, Ye Lingxu said quietly: "Do you remember the ten imperial doctors you sent to Chu?"

"Remember, it didn't mean that Qing'er hadn't had a child for a long time, so I sent the imperial doctor there. Is there anything wrong?"

"One of the imperial doctors prescribed the wrong medicine. Qing'er was pregnant, but she drank the imperial doctor's medicine by mistake, which would lead to a miscarriage. You know, Qing'er is not easy to get pregnant, and the Ninth Prince attaches great importance to this child. Unexpectedly..." Ye Ling Xu slowly told Dan Xin the news from Chu Di.

Hearing this indifferently, the empty bowl in his hand hit the ground with a bang. "How could this happen? The imperial doctors I sent are all the best, how could I make such a mistake!"

"The weirder thing is yet to come. After the Ninth Prince found out about this, he said that you were meddling in his own business. He never asked you for help. Why did you send an imperial doctor there? Now the Ninth Prince insists that you deliberately let Qing'er have a miscarriage , and persecute his sons."

"Didn't ask me for help, so who brought the news about Qing'er's poor health to the palace?" Danxin remembered that someone in Chudi brought the news to the palace a month ago, and she thought it was the Ninth Prince who was asking her for help, so ...

Ye Lingxu's eyelids twitched in vain, "Think about it carefully, who knows the connection between you, Qing'er and the Ninth Prince? This is clearly to make the Ninth Prince break with you, and the Ninth Prince has a deep affection for Qing'er Righteousness is important, so naturally I would not do such a thing that harms others and does not benefit myself."

"The one who knows me best..." Dan Xin bowed her head and thought about it carefully, a confused figure appeared in her mind, and that man could always speak out what she was thinking to the point when drinking tea or playing chess with her.If you had to say who knew her best, it would be him.

"Impossible!" As soon as this idea came up, he was beaten to death by Dan Xin.

"You already have the answer, don't you?" Seeing her in a trance, Ye Lingxu guessed something, took a deep breath, "The black-clothed iron armor has arrested the imperial doctor who prescribed the wrong medicine, and he will bring it back in a few days. You get ready."

Danxin shook his head, "I don't want to make preparations, Shen Qian is not such a person."

"Okay, then I'll make preparations. I'll go to interrogate this person. I want to see who the person behind him is, who has the guts to destroy the relationship between Qi and Chu!" Ye Lingxu said angrily. , strode away from the Imperial Study Room.

Seeing Ye Lingxu leave, Danxin's tense nerves suddenly collapsed, and he looked at the distant sky.Just now it was a sunny day, but in a blink of an eye it was covered with dark clouds.The wind screamed wildly and rushed towards the ground, and the dust swirled and raised Lao Gao.In the palace, people were walking staggeringly, almost falling down, the wind blew on their faces, and their eyes were almost unable to open.

"Your Majesty, it seems that a typhoon is coming this day." A minister came to report, but saw Dan Xin sitting on the dragon chair with a blank face, and shouted twice, Dan Xin finally recovered come on, "what?"

The minister sighed softly, "Summer is the season when typhoons frequently occur, Empress, you must give an order quickly, otherwise the people by the sea will suffer untold hardships!"

"Immediately shoot the soldiers to evacuate all the people on the beach. Also, close the doors and windows of each house, and no one can go out without authorization until the typhoon passes!" Dan Xin hurriedly returned to her senses, and passed on the imperial decree.

The power of nature is not something humans can contend with, but disasters can still be minimized. Under Dan Xin's order, the soldiers quickly led the seaside people to evacuate.As for the people who are not by the sea, Danxin also ordered them to close the doors and windows and not go out, so as to avoid danger as much as possible.

But what Danxin didn't expect was that after her order was issued, a group of people pretended to be members of the imperial court and went door to door telling them that the imperial court would increase taxes because of the need for disaster relief.Every ten taels of silver must be handed over immediately, otherwise they will be put in prison.

Because every household is closed and does not know whether the news is true or not, seeing people wearing court clothes will take it seriously.Gritting her teeth, she handed over the ten taels of silver, but she slandered in her heart: This Empress, she thought she really cared about the people, but she didn't expect to take the opportunity to squeeze the people!

"Increasing taxes?" The court learned of this, it was three days after the typhoon passed, and the people came out of their houses one by one after seeing the typhoon, and the first thing they said together was this.Because too many people were talking about it, the news reached the palace Danxin's ears.

"When did I say that the tax increase is still ten taels of silver for a family? Do you know what these ten taels of silver mean to the common people?" The government has endured the cold and suffered, and it is too clear what the ten taels of silver mean to ordinary people.

All the ministers bowed their heads, "We didn't do this."

"None of them?" After being tortured one by one, Danxin found out that it was not her ministers who did it. She was dumbfounded, "But the common people said they were from the imperial court..."

"It may also be a counterfeit. The reason why the people think they are from the imperial court is because of the clothes? But the clothes, as long as they are given money, any embroiderer can make them." At noon and dinner, Ye Ye Seeing that Danxin had been depressed all the time, and the dishes in her bowl hadn't been touched at all, Ling Xu couldn't help expressing his thoughts.

Danxin hurriedly looked sideways, "So you're not from the imperial court?" But then his eyes dimmed again, "But even if you and I know that you are not from the imperial court, what's the use of the people now complaining, no one will listen to me explanation." Looking at Ye Lingxu indifferently and aggrievedly, "Could it be that I have done so many things, and I can't be compared to someone else's frame?"

Ye Lingxu patted her on the shoulder lightly, "You and I are both the king of a country. We enjoy the greatest power in the world, so naturally we can't make any mistakes. It's clear that the other party came prepared to take advantage of the typhoon. They are all locked up at home, unable to go out and have no news, to extract their money. And it is so bold, it will not be done by ordinary people." Ye Lingxu reached out to wipe the tears on her face, "The most important thing right now is to appease the people, and get them as soon as possible. Get these guys out."

Danxin wiped away the tears on his face indiscriminately, "Then I'll go and preach the decree to ask the imperial court to return the money that the people were cheated of."

"Is there so much money in the national treasury?" Ye Lingxu asked in a deep voice, "As far as I know, not only one or two families were deceived this time, almost the entire population of Jingzhou was deceived. You recently We have just allocated funds to strengthen the doors and windows of every household of the common people, so where is the money to be returned to the common people now?"

"But I won't let them lose their breadwinners."

Ye Lingxu lowered his head, "How about this, the treasury of the State of Wei is still full now, I told Yan Mo to bring someone to fetch some, and I will help you close this first."

"I..." Dan Xin wanted to refuse, but it was for the sake of the people and not for herself, so she nodded, "Thank you."
