Chapter 89 The Crested Hairpin 40
Who guards the vermilion palace wall?Every year, every year, but Zhu Yanhong's sleeves are thin.

It has been more than a month since Lingyao was trapped in that palace, but Liang Yuqiang's birthday is still a long time away.She didn't have any reason to go out. The empress dowager devoted her whole heart to Buddha and didn't like to be disturbed by others.

She couldn't even go out to say hello.

At first, the palace people who came to serve her were all rushing to come, and various rewards from the emperor were sent to Yifang Palace one after another. In addition, Yifang Palace was the emperor's former residence, and everyone thought that this Concubine Yun's future is limitless.Now they slowly discovered that this seemingly glorious master had not been here for a single day since the emperor's conferment until now.

Here, there is no Liang Yuzheng, no General's Mansion, no Wei Jian's father and no Cui Xin.Lingyao was alone, still pretending to be okay, in the cage built up by layers of palace walls and decorated with colorful flowers, flipping through the scrolls, playing with the fish, sitting on the swing gently swinging boredly, Lift your eyes and look at the sky cut squarely by the palace wall.

The eunuch next to Liang Yuqiang has been here several times, looking at the untrimmed flowers and plants in Yifang Hall, missing a lot of food and silks that do not meet the concubine standards, and the courtyards and palaces that have not been cleaned. After a big fire, those palace people were severely punished, their salaries were fined, and they were asked to work hard.

Lingyao gave him her jade bracelet as a token of "thank you", but was rejected by the eunuch.

He didn't come all the way to be a good person. Almost all the good people in this palace died, and those who remained knew how to make a living.

If the emperor hadn't asked about Concubine Yun's request for an audience every day, whether Concubine Yun was well-fed, well-dressed, etc., and a series of other things about Concubine Yun, he would have thought like the rest of the palace that she was a person with no future. My master, not to mention coming here to visit, I'm afraid I'll have to step on you too.

Today's emperor has a meticulous mind, it is really impossible to guess, and he can't figure it out.

The eunuch returned the emerald bracelet to her, and reminded her: "Concubine Yun, look at the entire harem, except for the emperor, you are the only master, you, if you think about the emperor so much, the emperor will I’m coming here—you know what the servant said so clearly, right?”

Lingyao smiled lightly, even though the smile was not sincere, it was still overwhelming.She didn't have anything else to say, just said: "Thank you, father-in-law."

It turned out that it wasn't that he didn't know how to be favored, but... that he didn't want to!The eunuch shook his head secretly, saluted and left.

Let's just keep at a stalemate like this, and he doesn't get involved in the middle, it's time to see who compromises first, who wants to see whom, in this love competition, the monarch and his subjects are finalized.

Lingyao counted Liang Yuqiang's birthday in detail. When she was free, she drew a picture of plum blossoms. The plum blossoms were in full bloom, and there were many densely packed plum blossoms. Looking at the clusters of blooming flowers, Lingyao changed her ink brush Lightly painted a petal.

When the quincunx picture is completed, she can leave.

But as soon as a few flowers were painted on the Plum Blossom Picture, the Yifang Hall, which had been quiet for a long time, became lively, not because of anything else, but because Liang Yuqiang came.

The whole palace got the news that the emperor was going to the Yifang Hall, and immediately became busy. Several maids pulled Lingyao and said that they wanted to dress her up. She glanced at the begonia-colored palace attire, There are also hairpins, which are neither ostentatious nor inferior.

Ling Yao continued to turn the pages of the book in her hand slowly, and said: "You all go down, I have my own plan."

The maids looked at each other in confusion. Thinking about it, this master seemed to be uncontested, but didn't the emperor come in the end?They never thought that this was caused by Lingyao's laziness, but felt that she had a big picture in mind, so they stopped talking and kept silent.

But it was different from what people in Yifang Palace thought, Liang Yuqiang rushed in almost aggressively, and the first thing he said after entering this courtyard was: "Where is Concubine Yun!"

Lingyao walked out slowly after hearing the sound, and when she arrived in the yard, she found that everyone was bowing their heads, obviously feeling the emperor's anger.

"The emperor is here." Lingyao saluted: "See the emperor."

Several eunuchs came in carrying a huge vat, and put the vat in front of Lingyao. Liang Yuqiang gave them a wink, and the little eunuch stepped forward and handed Lingyao a strange hammer: " Concubine Yun, open it yourself!"

It was a very pointed hammer so that it could smash things with less effort.

Ling Yao took the hammer and looked at Liang Yuqiang, but he didn't look at her.

"Concubine Yun, just open it." The little eunuch said anxiously.

"Smash this vat?" Lingyao asked, seeing the little eunuch nodding, she didn't hesitate, since it was Liang Yuqiang's intention, she didn't have to embarrass a little eunuch.

Holding the hammer with both hands, Lingyao smashed it hard with all her strength, and the big vat, which was one person tall, shattered, and something rolled out of it, and it smelled of blood and a stench.

"Ah!" A court lady saw it clearly, and cried out in fright, and quickly stepped back a few steps.

Liang Yuqiang frowned, and the guards stepped forward and pulled the maid down. Even though they were terrified, everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to make a sound.

Because there is nothing else in that tank, but a person!A man covered in blood and wearing a tattered prison uniform, scabbed and non-scabby blood clots mixed with pieces of clothing torn by whips and various instruments of torture, sticking together, making people unbearable to look at.The man's hair was disheveled, his face was covered with blood, and his grass-like hair was covered with all kinds of filth. At first glance, he was not as good as a beggar wandering on the street.

Lingyao was stunned, with tears filling her eyes. She pressed her hand against her wildly beating heart. Liang Yuqiang stepped forward and held her neck, shouting angrily at the man in the tank: "Why, do you feel sorry for him?! You see clearly, he deserves this fate today!"

Lingyao was forced to look at that person. That person was none other than Liang Yuzheng who risked his life to save her father on the battlefield. It was Liang Yuzheng who gave up his imperial power to save her!

The man raised his head slowly, and he was still alive. Facing Lingyao's red eyes filled with tears, he moved his chapped lips, and it took him a long time to say: "Yao'er..."

Liang Yuqiang exerted a little force, and Lingyao was thrown to the ground by him. When she reacted, Liang Yuqiang's foot had already kicked hard on Liang Yucheng's shoulder. There were wounds on the shoulder, but now they were stepped on so hard that they were visible to the naked eye. The pain made Liang Yuzheng frowned, but he couldn't resist at all.
