Wen Xiangyanyu

At the beginning of July, King Yi arrived in Beijing with a guard of honor.

Before entering Beijing, Wen Ying ordered to stay in a villa outside the city for a few days.

The village is still the same as it was before they left, and it is well managed.

They lived in the same house that Ling Qiyan used to live in.

"Why are you in no hurry? The emperor called you back to Beijing, shouldn't you hurry up and see him?"

Ling Qiyan couldn't wait. It had been almost two months since he returned to Beijing all the way from the northwest. Wen Ying was not in a hurry at all, but he was in a hurry. He was anxious to see his poor scholar quickly become the prince.

A few days ago, the emperor had officially issued an edict to depose the prince of the East Palace.

Collaborating with the enemy and murdering his elder brother is not counted. After the incident, Ling Qiyu actually became rebellious again. He colluded with Duke Wei's government to launch a palace coup, but he was sold by Duke Wei in the end. The gate of the East Palace went straight to Xingqing Palace, without any hesitation, and reported him.

When Shen heard about the incident, she fainted from fright. After waking up, she didn't make a fuss. Instead, she bit her finger and wrote a letter of blood pleading guilty. , leaving the emperor completely.

Because of this, and the intercession of the Queen Mother and others, Ling Qiyu saved his life, and was detained in the Zhaohui Palace where Ling Qiyan had been imprisoned before, waiting to be dealt with.

This person has now become a grasshopper after autumn, and he can't jump up anymore.

The position of the East Palace was finally vacated.

Pushing the window open, Wen Ying answered smoothly: "I'm still injured, and I have to do a full set of acting."

All right, the more critical the moment is, the more calm you will be. You can't let the emperor find out that his injury is fake, let alone make it appear that he covets the crown prince too much.

Ling Qiyan casually tore off a pretty flower branch that was stretched out in front of him, and sighed: "Even you guessed wrong this time, your mother not only didn't make a fuss, but also wrote a blood letter of sin, and saved the dog by retreating." Life."

Wen Yingdan said: "After all, she has been sitting in the central palace for more than [-] years, and His Majesty still understands her thoughts."

"Of course I understand," Ling Qiyan looked at Wen Ying with a smile, "Maybe she made it to this point, I'm afraid only the son of Gou Shi, you definitely can't, I'm afraid Xiao Liu can't, guess what?" , Wait a few days to go to see her in the palace, will she feel sorry for you just coming back from the gate of hell, or will she complain that you robbed the dog's place?"

Wen Ying didn't take it seriously: "It's up to her."

Wen Ying's answer did not surprise Ling Qiyan. All along, he felt that this man did not have much affection for the emperor and empress, but only interests and calculations.

Wen Ying raised his eyes and looked at him: "Do you know, besides the Queen Mother, who else is interceding for Ling Qiyu?"

"Who?"

"Concubine Shu."

Ling Qiyan was stunned for a moment before realizing that Concubine Shu was his cheap mother: "She begged for the dog?"

"Ah."

Ling Qiyan frowned deeply, what did the Yun family do for Ling Qiyu's intercession?Show generosity to the emperor?But no matter how generous she is, can she really not hurt Shen's son? ...Why doesn't he believe it?

After thinking about it, I felt that something was wrong, and I couldn't figure it out, so I simply stopped thinking about it: "Let her do as she pleases."

After staying in this villa for three days, the emperor sent someone over to summon Wen Ying to the palace.

Wen Ying didn't take Qiao anymore, and immediately accepted the order, ordering people to prepare to enter the palace.

He asked someone to bring a set of prince's bodyguard uniforms, and put them on for Ling Qiyan: "You enter the palace with me, and go to Ningshou Palace to meet the Queen Mother."

Ling Qiyan raised the corners of her lips: "Before I said I would be your bodyguard, but you also said that I couldn't carry my shoulders or hands. Doesn't this still require me to act as a bodyguard?"

"Then you are willing to be a eunuch?"

Ling Qiyan shut up immediately.

Wen Ying personally helped him change his clothes, and reminded him some things to pay attention to after entering the palace: "I will go to Xingqing Palace, and I will send someone to send you directly to Ningshou Palace. Be careful yourself, and I will come back to you later." I went to Fengyi Palace to pay homage to the queen, and then went to Ningshou Palace to pick you up."

"Okay, you, I know you better than me in the palace, so take care of yourself."

Wen Ying nodded and said nothing more.

At the hour of the hour, the carriage drove into the palace.

Because Wen Ying's injury was not healed, the emperor allowed his car to drive directly into the palace and parked outside Xingqing Palace.

Ling Qiyan suddenly changed his mind and got out of the car with Wen Ying: "I'll wait for you here."

Wen Ying reminded him disapprovingly: "I'm going in, I don't know when I can come out, you can only stand outside and wait, why don't you go to Ningshou Palace first."

"No, I'll just wait for you." Ling Qiyan insisted.

Add another sentence: "I'm afraid they will bully you, I'm your bodyguard."

Even if it was just a joke, seeing the bright smile on his face, Wen Ying stopped persuading him and walked up the stone steps in front of Xingqing Palace side by side with him.

Wen Ying entered, and Ling Qiyan waited outside with the others.

The Xingqing Palace is still the same here, the sky is high and the clouds are vast, standing on the top of the stone steps and looking down, it seems like you are in the clouds.

Ling Qiyan stood still.

He just had a sudden whim and wanted to come here to see it again. Now that he was standing at this place, he realized that his mood seemed to have changed a lot.

In the past, every time he came back here, there was probably nothing good. Several times when he stood here, he was briefly confused and at a loss, but this time was the first time. He felt more at ease, more at ease than ever.

In the main hall, Wen Ying quietly looked at the tearful emperor in front of him, who was complaining to him about Ling Qiyu's fault.

Not seeing each other for more than a year, the emperor has experienced a lot of vicissitudes, and the spirit between his brows has deteriorated a lot.

Wen Ying lowered his eyes, his eyes were dim, and the emperor who was still in grief and anger didn't notice it.

After the emperor had said enough, it was Wen Ying's turn to talk about the most important things about the year's expedition abroad, and the rest had been reported to the emperor in countless previous memorials and secret memorials.

After hearing this, the emperor let out a long sigh: "You are a good person. I have a lot of worries. If you don't make up your mind to do something, you do it for me and you don't take credit for it. My luck is not bad. Fortunately, I have such a good son as you." exist."

"Father's words are serious, sons and ministers should do."

"Are you in good health? What does the imperial doctor say?"

Wen Ying replied cautiously: "Father Lao is concerned, my son is fine, and he will recover after a period of recuperation."

"Okay, okay." The emperor Lao Huai comforted him. He had lost his sight before, but at least he still had this promising and filial son in front of him, didn't he?

Ling Qiyan waited outside for an hour, and when Wen Ying came out, he couldn't stand anymore.

Wen Ying stretched out his hand to support him, looking ugly.

Ling Qiyan nudged his arm and lowered his voice: "Let go, and I don't even look at this place."

Wen Ying ignored him and insisted on helping him down the stone steps.

Ling Qiyan couldn't break free, so he had to forget it.

He whispered, "What did the emperor tell you?"

"The ones you can guess."

Ling Qiyan let out an "oh".

He can even imagine the tone of the emperor's speech, which is really boring.

After leaving Xingqing Palace, Wen Ying once again reminded Ling Qiyan to go to Ningshou Palace first.

Ling Qiyan refused: "You still want to go to Fengyi Palace? Fengyi Palace is not far from Ningshou Palace. I'll go with you. Anyway, you will definitely stay there soon."

His eyes were full of ridicule, Wen Ying looked away and said no more.

When he arrived at Fengyi Palace, Ling Qiyan was still waiting outside. He actually didn't want to come here to find bad luck at all, but forget it, if Wen Ying is coming, he is willing to accompany him.

Standing outside for a while, happened to run into Ling Qining who came to greet her.

Ling Qining recognized him at a glance.

Seeing Ling Qiyan dressed as a prince's bodyguard, Ling Qining opened his eyes slightly, and Ling Qiyan raised a finger to signal him to keep silent.

Ling Qining understood, walked over and asked in a low voice, "Big brother, why are you here? Did you come back with my big brother?"

"Well, he's already inside."

Ling Qining looked at him with mixed feelings: "Didn't you go to the south of the Yangtze River? I heard from cousin Xihua that you went to the northwest again later? Are you doing well there?"

"Yes, I also killed King Barrington Khan." Ling Qiyan raised his eyebrows proudly.

Ling Qining is almost 14 years old, he is much taller than when he left last year, reaching to his shoulders, but he still looks silly.

Ling Qiyan sometimes thinks that the queen in it was born somehow. Although Wen Ying and Ling Qiyu are very different in every aspect, they do have similarities in temperament. Only Ling Qining is honest and honest. , can't be annoying.

Hearing what he said, Ling Qining looked envious: "I also want to go to the battlefield and become a general, but my mother won't let me."

Ling Qiyan laughed and said: "What kind of general are you? Be your prince and enjoy yourself. Go in. Don't tell your mother that you saw me here."

"I won't say it," Ling Qining promised quickly, hesitated, and asked him again, "Do you know where the second brother is locked up? I know that what he did was wrong, and he was to blame for being deposed, but I think Go see him."

Ling Qiyan was a little speechless, maybe it was to show the empress that Ling Qiyu and Ling Qining really had a good relationship, because of this, he didn't really like to talk to this silly boy in the past.

"...I don't know, don't be stupid, don't touch him in the future."

Ling Qining showed disappointment, and said that he would go to Wen Ying's place to see him next time and go in.

Ling Qiyan didn't wait too long this time, Wen Ying came out within two quarters of an hour after entering.

Being stared at by Ling Qiyan, Wen Ying frowned lightly: "What are you looking at?"

"Let's see if you have been beaten."

"will not."

He didn't say much with Ling Qiyan, just now, the queen did not dare to do anything to him, but she looked at him with hatred in her eyes, as if it was all his fault that Ling Qiyu was abolished.

But even if he didn't say it, Ling Qiyan could guess: "Did she show you the face?"

"Yeah." Wen Ying nodded indifferently.

Ling Qiyan snorted softly: "Your mother's queen is narrow-minded, she only has that bastard in her eyes, and she will have to rely on you in the future, and the Shen family knows to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, she is good."

"No matter how much she doesn't like me, I still have to serve her. In the future, the queen mother's position will be hers no matter what, so why does she pretend to be with me?"

Ling Qiyan was at a loss for words. Indeed, the word "filial piety" meant that Shen would be domineering in front of Wen Ying for the rest of his life. It was really unpleasant to think about it.

Wen Ying probably didn't want to say this again: "Let's go to Ningshou Palace."

In Ningshou Palace, the Empress Dowager has been waiting for a long time.

Seeing Wen Ying and Ling Qiyan come in, there was a smile on his face. Ling Qiyan stepped forward, knelt down in front of her old man, and acted like a baby with her like before: "Grandma, Yan'er misses you!" .”

"Okay, okay." Seeing that he was so energetic, the queen mother touched his face, very happy, "he is taller and thinner, and he looks a lot stronger."

"That is, I have to race horses every day outside the Great Wall, and I have killed a lot of Barrington soldiers, so my body is naturally strong." Ling Qiyan boasted very proudly.

The queen mother was amused by him: "The banquet is really good."

The grandfather and grandson talked for a long time, Wen Ying didn't interrupt a word, just sat aside and listened quietly.

After the banquet, Ling Qi realized that he had taken over his grandmother, so he was embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "I was able to decapitate King Barrington Khan, thanks to the opportunity given by King Yi, otherwise I would not be able to achieve this feat. "

As he spoke, he nudged Wen Ying's arm, and Wen Ying respectfully kowtowed to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother supported him with both hands: "Good boy, just come back safely."

The old man looked at Wen Ying's expression and asked about his injury. Thinking about how the injury came about, she felt quite uncomfortable, so she didn't say much, but reminded him: "Since I am back, I will be your father in the future." Share your worries."

Wen Ying replied: "Grandson will meet, grandma can rest assured."

"He is amazing. If it weren't for him, how could such a big Barrington be taken down so quickly."

Ling Qiyan praised Wen Ying again to the queen mother, and she couldn't hide her joy. The queen mother looked at him like this, and then looked at Wen Ying with a calm and calm expression. Thinking of the golden crossbow they sent back before, she suddenly I don't know what to say.

Wen Ying ate tea calmly, just pretending not to see the embarrassment and hesitancy on the Empress Dowager's face.

They talked for a while, and the mother brought the twelve princes who had just woken up. The child was only half a year old, very fat, a limp ball, full of energy just after eating, and kept in the mother's arms. Twist, when I first saw Ling Qiyan and Wen Ying, I didn't recognize them, and stared at them with big black grape-like eyes.

The Queen Mother motioned to Ling Qiyan: "You hug him."

Before Ling Qiyan could refuse, the nanny had already put the child in his arms, and Ling Qiyan froze instantly.

He has never held such a small child, let alone this hot meat ball is still restless in his arms, twisting his body and kicking his feet, making him at a loss what to do.

The queen mother looked at them, one big and one small, and seemed very happy: "I just said, Qi Wu looks like Yan'er, with exactly the same eyebrows and eyes, and they are all good-looking."

Ling Qiyan stares at the fat baby in his arms, does it look like it?Why didn't he feel it?

He raised his eyes and glanced at the pale-faced Wen Ying beside him, well, he still felt that the little doll was more like this coffin face, and it was clear that the lower half of the face was carved out of the same mold as this person.

Seeing Ling Qiyan's awkwardness, Wen Ying stretched out his hand to take the child, but he was very skilled in holding the baby. Seeing this, Ling Qiyan asked curiously, "When did you hold such a small child?"

Wen Yingdan said: "The Wen family has many children, and they have been hugged before."

Ling Qiyan felt strange that this person would hug his younger siblings? ...I really didn't see it.

Seeing that Ling Qiyan was happy, the queen mother asked him casually: "Yan'er, do you want to go to Chenxian Palace to see where Concubine Shu lives, or should I ask someone to pass her over?"

Ling Qiyan was stunned for a moment, and said with a sneer: "Let's forget it, Your Majesty's Concubine Shu, I can't see it."

The queen mother sighed: "If you want to see me, go see me. I let you go, so you don't have to think about it."

Ling Qiyan shook his head: "I don't want to see you."

He and Yun's are strangers, it doesn't matter if they see each other or not.

A hand under the wide sleeve was held, Ling Qiyan subconsciously looked at the people around him, Wen Ying still had that calm face, and didn't even look at him.

Ling Qiyan couldn't help but want to laugh, how can there be such a comforting person, it really is a piece of wood.

The queen mother wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the palace servants who hurried in to report the matter, saying that something happened at the other end of Zhaohui Hall.

The Queen Mother frowned and asked, "What happened?"

"Two quarters of an hour ago, the Sixth Highness went down to Zhaohui Hall to see the Second Highness. I don't know what happened afterwards. The Second Highness took the Sixth Highness hostage!"
