Yuwangfu

The evening wind is sultry, the breeze is not dry, and the palace of Prince Yu is very quiet at night.

At the family dinner tonight, Leng Yu drank a glass of water and wine with Liu Dechang. Although he was not drunk, he was in a bad mood.

After returning to the room, he asked Ah Gang to bring a pot of tea. After he filled it up, he was about to drink it when he was stopped by Luo Lan.

"Sir, tea is meant to refresh one's mind. You drink tea before going to bed, so you don't want to go to bed at night?"

Leng Yu looked indifferent, and hesitantly sighed,

"It's been a long night, I don't feel sleepy, so what if I go to bed late, why don't you sit down and have a drink with me, my lady."

Luo Lan took the teacup in his hand and put it on the table, sat opposite him and looked at him, asking in surprise:

"What's wrong with Mr. Xiang today? It seems that something is on your mind?"

Leng Yu still stubbornly picked up the tea cup that Luo Lan had just snatched, took a sip of it, and then sighed:

"Miss, after today's incident, I suddenly felt that being an emperor is very tiring. Not only do you have to deal with state affairs and harem affairs, but you also have to beware of being plotted by people around you. Did you see the state of the father when he first arrived at the lotus pavilion? The spirit is listless , the state is extremely bad, but after taking the small pill Liu Xi sent, he suddenly became energetic. I think what you said is right, this kind of small pill will make him mentally dependent, and sooner or later it will harm him , but who dares to imagine that this little pill was actually made by the person next to him and his own son, this is really a desolate and tragic thing!"

Seeing that Leng Yu was worried about this matter, she put her hands on the table, rested her chin on them, stared at him with nimble and crystal eyes, and sighed helplessly,

"But even if we know this is the case, we can't expose it face to face. The emperor has been fascinated by that little pill now, how can he believe what we say? After all, even if he believes it, we have no way to make him quit. Drop this little pill, and according to his current physical condition, doing that may kill him."

"Then we can only sit down?"

Leng Yu picked up the teacup again and took a sip of the tea, a resentful look appeared in his eyes.

Luo Lan simply snatched the water glass from his hand, poured another glass of water, drank it in two gulps, and murmured,

"Otherwise, what else can we do? What we have to do now is to hoard our own strength and guard against Lengxi's backstabbing. I am now worried that once the emperor breaks this little pill one day, he will lose everything." The ability to resist, when the time comes, when the Daning Kingdom is in turmoil, the war between your brothers will also break out at any moment."

"Although I don't want to turn against my brothers, what Lengxi has done in the past few years is really infuriating. For my children, for you, and for the people of Daning Kingdom, I will take over this war." gone."

When he said this, there was a look of determination in his eyes, and his fists on the table were clenched even more tightly.

The room was quiet for a while, Luo Lan's heart was filled with mixed feelings, and Leng Yu's heart was full of emotions.

"My lord, there are people coming from the palace."

Ah Gang's call broke the tranquility here, Leng Yu immediately frowned, got up, and took big steps to open the door.

The moment the door opened, Liu Xi greeted him with a sad face.

"Prince Yu, for visiting late at night and disturbing your and Princess Yu's slumber, this old slave deeply apologizes, but this old slave cannot go out of the palace during the day, please don't blame this old slave for being abrupt."

Leng Yu looked at him with his brows tightly locked, and asked in puzzlement:

"Eunuch Liu is here so late, is there something urgent?"

Liu Xi glanced at Ah Gang beside him, bowed to Leng Yu and said:

"My lord, can I take a step to speak?"

After glancing at Luo Lan, Leng Yu made a gesture of invitation to him, "Eunuch Liu, please come inside."

After Liu Xi nodded, he followed Leng Yu into the house.

After Luo Lan poured a cup of tea for Liu Xi, she pushed it in front of him,

"Eunuch Liu, please drink tea."

"How can this old slave have the heart to drink tea? This old slave is here today to ask you two to save the emperor."

When he said this, Liu Xi suddenly slid down from the chair, knelt down on his knees, and looked at Leng Yu and Luo Lan with a sad face.

This action of his made Leng Yu's heart skip a beat. No matter what he said, the emperor was also his father, and when he heard that he had something to do, his heart was still moved.

He hurried forward and helped Liu Xi up,

"Eunuch Liu, just speak up if you have something to say, you don't have to do this."

Eunuch Liu has been with the emperor for many years and has been doing his best. The emperor also trusts him very much. His status in the palace is quite high, so he never has to salute in front of the princes or ministers. But today he suddenly came to visit in the middle of the night. , but also this great gift, this has to make Leng Yu worry about whether something happened to the emperor.

Supported by Leng Yu, Liu Xi sat back on the chair again, and Luo Lan also asked worriedly:

"Eunuch Liu, what happened, you might as well tell me directly."

Liu Xi sighed heavily, and said in a low voice:

"You two also know that the emperor's health is getting worse and worse recently. He used to take two small pills sent by Lord Xi every day, but now he takes five or six pills a day. Today, when he went to bed, he had already taken seven pills. Yes, the old slave is worried that this so-called elixir will not only not make people live forever, but will actually harm people. The old slave knows that Princess Yu has excellent medical skills, so the old slave wants to ask Princess Yu to take a look. , What kind of drug can make people addicted, and can confuse people to the point of fascination."

Liu Xi's words stunned Luo Lan for a moment, she raised her head to look at Leng Yu, her brows knit together instantly.

She did not expect that the elderly eunuch in front of her would guess that there were unusual medicinal ingredients in this small pill.

After listening to Liu Xi's words, Leng Yu sighed quite moved,

"Eunuch Liu, I know that you are loyal to your father, otherwise you would not have thought about checking the medicinal properties of this little pill. To tell you the truth, my wife and I also found something wrong with this little pill, but now we have There is no other way, father is indeed addicted to this little pill for a long time, if he does not take it for a day, his whole body will be as uncomfortable as being bitten by thousands of ants, but let him keep taking it, the final result , just in the state where this little pill can make people excited, and die in depression..."

Leng Yu's words made Liu Xi's face turn ashen for a moment. He trembled, slipped down from the chair again, and begged Leng Yu:

"Prince Yu, I beg you, this old slave, please save the emperor, he is only in his early fifties, he shouldn't have died so early, besides... besides... Besides, if the emperor really dies one day, then Daning Kingdom will definitely set off a crisis." Bloody wind, you don't want to see such a result!"
