Isn’t it good for the five of us to be together?

Ling Hengyuan and I are the same kind of people. I want to get what I want from him, and he also wants to get what he wants from me.

Speaking of which, maybe this is also the reason why I can still live well after jumping around in front of him for so long. And if it weren't for the system's requirements, I would never approach someone like him.

The two of them had a very balanced relationship, but tonight, he was defeated after all, maybe out of guilt, or maybe out of hurt.

He asked me to sit down. This was the first time he had the patience to tell me these things.

Ling Hengyuan: "I don't know where my mother-in-law came from. I only know that she was once the wife of the prime minister."

Ling Hengyuan's mother-in-law was named Shen Mian. The late emperor met her once, but it was love at first sight. The prime minister knew the late emperor's thoughts. At that time, the prime minister was not the prime minister, but just an undistinguished official. After knowing this, he dedicated his wife to the late emperor for his official career. It was announced to the public that his wife had died of illness, giving Shen Mian a new identity - the palace maid beside the late emperor.

Naturally, the late emperor favored her, and she became one of the concubines in the harem. Because of her outstanding appearance, wonderful figure, and the unique favor of the late emperor, she was informed that she was pregnant with the emperor's heir less than a month after entering the palace. In this way, Shen Mian became a thorn in the side of the concubines in the harem.

Shen Mian lived on thin ice in the palace. Although the late emperor took good care of her, the novelty would always wear off. Soon after she became pregnant, a group of new girls came in. She gradually fell out of favor, and the concubines in the harem also began to treat her badly.

She took all precautions, but she still gave birth prematurely. Fortunately, both mother and son are safe. However, rumors began to spread in the palace that she was not behaving properly in the palace... The late emperor did not pay attention to it, because he knew better than anyone how Shen Mian entered the palace. In order to appease her, the late emperor also visited her from time to time and returned gifts to her. Improved status.

Shen Mian was still trembling with fear. She was afraid that if she made a mistake, the man who sent her to the palace would be implicated, but she didn't know that he had already risen to the top and sat in the position of prime minister.

Shen Mian did not have much authority in the palace, and Ling Hengyuan was also bullied, but Shen Mian would always try her best to feed and clothe him.

So maybe even Ling Hengyuan didn't know how he felt about E Niang. But at that time, the two of them were relatives who depended on each other for life.

As Ling Hengyuan grew bigger and bigger, the rumors intensified. Some people actually used Shen Mian's premature birth to make a fuss, saying that Ling Hengyuan was not like the late emperor and was not of royal blood at all. At that time, there had already been a dispute in the government over who should be crown prince. Although Ling Hengyuan was the youngest prince, he was the most outstanding among the three princes.

In the year when Ling Hengyuan's voice was loudest, the late emperor executed Shen Mian and sent Ling Hengyuan to the cold palace, leaving him to fend for himself.

I didn't expect that there would be another one. Ling Hengyuan was the most promising person to become the prince at that time.

I said: "Your Majesty has been gifted with extraordinary talents since he was a child."

Ling Hengyuan: "Stop flattering me, my ears are getting calloused."

I asked: "Ke Weichen learned that King Wenxuan is the elder brother of the late empress, but the identity of the late empress was forged by a villain. How did King Wenxuan know this?"

Ling Hengyuan said: "Prince Wenxuan had met E Niang once before, and he felt that she was quite similar to his long-lost sister. After some investigation, even the names were exactly the same, so he directly identified E Niang. When I was still the prince , King Wenxuan helped me a lot. Later, he went to war with the general of that year and had no time to take care of me. Later, it was also King Wenxuan who helped me ascend the throne."

Ling Hengyuan's face was very calm when he said it. After all, he had thought about these things many times.

Ling Hengyuan looked at the dagger and said slowly: "Actually, I didn't want to fight, but I found that if I don't fight for anything, no one can protect me."

I knew he was talking about the little palace maid. Her mother was gone, and even the person who was wholeheartedly good to me died of cold in the snow...

I took out a cloth bag from my sleeve and handed it to Ling Hengyuan: "Your Majesty can have whatever you want now. Today is your Majesty's birthday. I don't have anything valuable or rare. Seeing that Your Majesty likes this dagger very much, I will give it to you." Please give this to Your Majesty."

Ling Hengyuan looked at the cloth bag in my hand, took it and opened it. The glass bead shone through the candlelight. He didn't speak for a long time. Just when I thought he didn't like it, he said, "I like it very much."

Ling Hengyuan looked at the sword spike carefully, with a hint of joy in his eyes.

I said: "Your Majesty really likes it. The minister also gave one to the general. The general also likes it very much."

"..."

Ling Hengyuan put the sword spike on the table and said in a colder tone than before: "Qin Che left the table early today. There must be something important. You should go back now."

After being reminded by Ling Hengyuan, I remembered that there was someone else in the house who needed to be coaxed, so I quickly said: "Since Your Majesty has nothing to do, I'll take my leave first."

Ling Hengyuan didn't reply to me, so I opened the palace door and went out.

Demo, do you really think that I have forgotten that you pushed me out to block the sword? Nothing can make you feel better today.

"drop! The host is detected and the Linghengyuan Harem storyline is completed! A big gift package is being distributed to the host! 』

I’m the one who’s having a hard time right now. I knew Qin Che would be difficult to coax today, but I didn't expect it to be so difficult.

I knocked on his door: "Archer? Are you in there?"

There was light in the room and the door was locked from the inside. He must be inside.

Seeing no response, I continued: "Arche, please pay attention to me..."

"Archer" one after another, I changed the tone of voice, but unfortunately there was still no response.

If I hadn't been qualified, I would have kicked this door open.

Tired of shouting, I sat down by the door. I was quite tired this day. I ran to the city gate and then to the palace, played tricks on people and now wanted to coax them.

Just as I was thinking about it, the door suddenly opened from the inside. I leaned on the door with my back and almost fell down. I complained: "Arche, you should have made a squeak when you opened the door."

Qin Che felt nothing unusual except for his cold eyes. He asked, "What's the matter with Ji?"

I said weakly: "I want to meet Archer..."

Qin Che: "What happens after I see you?"

I rubbed my fingers and said, "No, no, if Archer is okay, I'll leave first..."

I turned around to leave, but someone said behind me: "If Ah Ji leaves now, then don't come back in the future."

My heart skipped a beat after hearing this, and I looked at Qin Che with only one thought in my mind: It's over, I'm so angry.

Qin Che ignored me and walked into the inner room on his own.

I quickly followed him and said, "Ache~Ache~I really didn't expect what happened today."

I closed the door. The room was very warm and the charcoal fire was burning well, but the room was in a mess, with papers and objects scattered everywhere.

Me: "Has there... been a burglar in Archer's room?"

Wasn't he angry because of me? Was it because he had something stolen?
