Chapter 140

Seeing him like this, Qin An'an laughed, "The person you are worried about is now in the palace and can't afford to be injured, how can he meet me. You probably worry too much." Since then, Qin An'an stood at the door and listened to the conversation, and only then was he able to know the secret that Brother Huang had been hiding all along. It turned out that Brother Huang wanted to give this seat to Ah Chen, but Ah Chen resolutely refused.Ah Chen is so nervous now, naturally because he remembered what happened last time.Ji Lingchen didn't loosen his brows when he heard that, he just stared at her thoughtfully, and said, "I never thought about that position."

"If...someone persecutes you, what should you do?" Qin Anan asked.

"What does it have to do with me?" Ji Lingchen asked back.His tone is indifferent, but there is an irresistible tendency, if someone is persecuting him, what does it matter to him, he does things in this world if he likes them, and he doesn't do them if he doesn't like them, no one has ever been able to persecute him.

Qin An'an took a deep breath, and suddenly said: "Brother Huang is unconscious now, and Prince An hastily acted, which can only explain one thing. Brother Huang intends to re-select a new candidate for abdication. Perhaps the matter of this candidate has already been decided. Already, King An heard about this at first, so he wanted to cut off the clues."

There was a sudden storm in the middle of the court, and it was imminent to seize the throne. How many ministers stood in line in person, but only Qin An'an and Ji Lingchen knew that that person, the emperor brother, had never thought of handing over the country to King An and the little prince. The person sitting in this position has always been Ji Lingchen.He has secretly noticed Ji Lingchen and protected him for so many years, perhaps because of guilt, or because his own country should have been planned by the Supreme Emperor, but the more important reason is that he has always regarded Ji Lingchen as a future prince.

"I don't want to do that," Ji Lingchen hugged her, perhaps to comfort her, "I won't do what he wants."

"I know." Qin An'an lay on Ji Lingchen's chest, the man smelled a sweet grass-like aura, and there was also a slight chill from the night dew, but he felt extremely at ease.She said: "It's just that you need to know that the emperor's brother may have expected today. I think that he intends to ask you to be the emperor, and he will definitely make preparations somewhere to let you sit in this position. The most important thing, The most important thing to rely on is—imperial decree."

Maybe Ji Lingchen and the emperor's brother had a plan long ago, this time the so-called emperor's disease is not as serious as the rumors, otherwise Ah Chen would not be able to sit still, his sincere heart to the emperor's brother Qin An'an is still Very sure, but Ji Lingchen didn't think as much as she did. Maybe it was a woman's innate sixth sense. She always vaguely felt that there was something not so simple behind this matter. The existence of Ji Junling was also a There are big changes, and what role the Mongolian princess played in the previous grievances, why Ji Lingchen's nanny didn't mention this person at all, these are like a knife hanging above the head, making Qin Anan toss and turn for a while Don't worry, besides the difficulty of sending messages in ancient times, no one can tell what the situation in the capital is like, in case the emperor brother is true.

Now that things have turned out like this, the emperor wants to make an imperial edict before, Qin An'an can almost be sure that the people of King An have already heard the news, and know that the person in the imperial edict is not himself, so he made such a decisive move , They want to kill the emperor's brother, and then they will get to that position in their own way. In addition, the little prince is not yet familiar with world affairs, so it is easy to coerce the emperor to make the princes.

"He killed Eunuch Li, perhaps because he wanted to find someone to replace Eunuch Li and find out the secret of the imperial decree." Qin Anan said softly: "I think it's not only the imperial decree, but also the imperial brother's mind. If necessary, I will stand up and help you succeed." The heirs of the Supreme Emperor have withered, and there are only a few suitable candidates. Ji Lingchen was the best candidate, so at this time Ji Lingchen would be on the cusp of the crisis, so he let Achen come to Lincheng. It was one thing for the emperor to force Ji Lingchen, but he still had to do his best to protect his life.

"I will find out the imperial decree." Ji Lingchen said softly: "Then burn it, no one will know."

What he burned was not just an imperial decree, but also a kind of life in his future, his road to emperor.Qin An'an suddenly felt sad, it shouldn't be like this, maybe he didn't travel to this dynasty, then Ji Lingchen is the emperor's order, maybe in a parallel space that he didn't participate in, he was sitting in the country of Anping Dynasty, but In this life, she arbitrarily changed his fate, and he is no longer an emperor.

But so what?She didn't want to let go. If Ji Lingchen wanted to be the emperor, she would let him go. If she didn't want to, even if she risked her life, she wouldn't let those people succeed.Protecting what she wants is the meaning of her life.

Ji Lingchen saw Qin An'an's strangeness, the corners of his lips raised slightly, kissed her forehead and said: "Don't worry, leave it to me."

"Okay." Qin Anan laughed: "I leave it to you."

The husband and wife talked again, and Ji Lingchen got up to take a shower. What he didn't see was that after he turned around, the smile on Qin Anan's face froze, as if he had made a certain decision.She slowly said to herself: "Since you don't want to be the emperor, then I will naturally do it for you. I have always stood behind you, this time let me protect you." She Lowering his eyes, he whispered, "Leave it to me."

......

That night, there was another person in Prince Jing's mansion. He was standing in a secluded corner of the palace garden, with a huge iron basin in front of him. Flames sprang out from the iron basin from time to time, mixed with some dark yellow or Burnt paper money, he was burning paper money for someone.

The cold wind was blowing. Although it was early spring, it was always cold at night, but this man was only wearing a thin long gown, just like the blue gown worn by the most common students in the academy.At this moment, he was sitting on the ground, beside the iron basin, there was still a jug of wine and two wine glasses, but there was only one person.

This person is none other than the butler. He looked at the jumping flames and seemed to be thinking about something. He suddenly smiled and said, "Old Li, I said you are too stupid to be in this position. How could you fall into someone else's way? Look, this is good, I haven't asked you for a drink, you go away by yourself, I'm so shivering when I'm drinking alone." What he said seemed a little funny, and there was a smile on his face. With some smiles, it seems that she is not sad, but in this smile, there is a little more loneliness and sadness.

"Back then, the three of us, you, me, and master, were a scene in the capital. Hey, although you are an eunuch, you are not bad looking, although not as good as me and master, when the three of us went out, how many girls turned around. Hey , If you were not an eunuch, it would be a pity." The butler said to himself, as if he thought what he said was very interesting, and he laughed unconsciously.Through the dancing flames in front of his eyes, he seemed to see things from a long time ago.

The housekeeper turned out to be from Xuanyuan Mingyu!At that time, Xuanyuan Yuming was still the son of Pianpian, he was a handsome Tanhualang, and although Xiao Lizi was a eunuch, he had a clever and pleasing temperament and a handsome appearance.Although Xuanyuan Mingyu is the master, he has always been tolerant towards them. When he goes out to play, he will always bring the two of them with him. The three of them are very happy, almost like the three gentlemen that the storyteller said, everyone is equal.

They are indeed equal, so when Taixuanyuan Mingyu was passed on, Xiao Lizi and the housekeeper were truly heartbroken.It's just that the housekeeper chose to resign and go into seclusion. He wanted to guard the only blood of his friend, who was desperately protecting him.However, Xiao Lizi stayed in the palace. This does not mean that Xiao Lizi is a wolf-hearted person. This may be another way he used to pay homage to his friend—stay here, assist the king, even if it is just for The king brings tea and water, as long as he can contribute to the country that this friend has sacrificed his life to win.

So after so many years, the butler has become a real butler, as if he has forgotten all those literary and military strategies, and his daily worries are only some trivial things, and he puts all his energy on Ji Lingchen.And Xiao Lizi relied on his cleverness in the palace, and finally became the big manager next to the emperor's brother, Eunuch Li.

For so many years, they have never been in touch, but they know that each other is living well, and everyone has a life of their own choice.The butler raised his head and filled up the two wine glasses in front of him. Then he touched each glass, and then spilled all the wine in one of the glasses on the ground.

"The three of us, you and the master are reunited, but I can't do it yet. I have to watch the prince live well, and see the prince and the princess live well. No, even if that's not the case, I have to be good. I’ve said it a long time ago, whether it’s the master or you, I’m not as lucky as Lao Lin. I, Lao Lin, can see their lives getting better and better every day, but you are not so lucky to see this scene!” The butler started to giggle, and with such a smile, he regained some of his old appearance, but if he looked more carefully, he could see a glint of light flashing quickly in the corner of his eyes under the reflection of the fire.

He said: "Although the princess didn't understand what she said today, I understood it. Master, please be happy, the daughter-in-law here is extremely smart. If you are still here, you must also like it." It's just that the old thief The son is conscientious, and he still seems to want to hand over the position to the prince.The prince definitely disagrees, hey, master, it would be great if you were here, how can you watch your son being bullied like this. "He took another sip of wine: "Old Li, you are really serious. You are still the number one manager. After working with him for so many years, you can't even control his decision.If you can't persuade the emperor well and make people become emperors, where is the cleverness at the beginning? "

No one answered the steward's words, he sat alone in the night talking to himself, like a lunatic, but he sighed again: "The old man was also a suave and handsome man." He thought about it.He took out a small bottle from his arms, held the small bottle in his hand, and suddenly smiled: "I also understand when it is now, I want to see the prince live so well all the time. I don’t know if there is such an opportunity. The capital city is about to change. Although our Prince Jing’s Mansion is not the East Palace, after so many years with the prince, this place has long been Lao Lin’s home. How many people are staring at it, and today I want to guard it.” He put the vial He poured it into his palm, and rolled out a pill from it.

There was nothing special about the pill, but the housekeeper smiled. He yelled imposingly towards the fire in front of him, saying: "Even after so many years, the old man is still so suave." He took the pill Throwing it into his mouth and swallowing it in one breath, it took a long time before he picked up the jug in front of him and took a sip.

Swallowing this pill, the butler's hunched body stretched out. Anyone here would be shocked. The person in front of him instantly changed from a 60-year-old to a 40-year-old elegant man.

The butler seemed to have made up his mind. "It's time to show your true colors." The butler silently threw a handful of paper money into the burning brazier again: "This time, I will protect the prince well, master, leave it to me."

Early the next morning, Ji Lingchen went out, and Qin Anan washed and changed clothes by himself. Seeing that she seemed to be going out, Zhichun asked strangely, "Is the princess going out?" Qin Anan didn't say yesterday As for the matter of going out, at this juncture, I probably wouldn't be in the mood to go for a walk.

Qin An'an smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter, just go to the next door to have a look."

Next door, Zhichun was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the house next door to the palace was not the secret guard and Yu Zilu. Zhichun and Liu Er thought that Qin Anan was going to ask the secret guard about the situation.After all, these people are the most well-informed now.This is probably the reason why Qin Anan went to the dark guard.

Who knew that when Liu'er and the others followed Qin An'an to the next door, the hidden guard was not in the room, Yu Zilu said with a smile: "They were all taken away by the lord, why are you looking for him?"

Qin Anan shook his head and said, "I'm not here to look for him, I'm here to look for you."

Zhichun and Liu'er looked at each other. Liu'er and Zhichun naturally knew Yu Zilu's thoughts on Qin An'an. At the beginning, the atmosphere between Ji Lingchen and Qin An'an became a little delicate. Although it was later confirmed that it was just a game set up by Qin Anan himself, As long as I think about it, I still feel a little uneasy.Zhiqiu didn't have any expression on his face, Yu Zilu was startled when he heard the words, and then said: "Okay. Come in and talk about it."

Yu Zilu wouldn't think that Qin Anan came to him to reminisce about the old days. Yu Zilu could not see what happened in the past few days. Regarding Qin Anan's use of him, he was just pushing the boat along the way.Tong Ji Lingchen has been a senior brother for so many years, and he is also a businessman, so he naturally has a way of guessing people's hearts, and his mind has always been very clear.
