ma'am, calm down

Ye Peiqing rested at home for two days and finally recovered.This afternoon, the old lady ordered Qingfang to call him to her.

The old lady told him to sit beside her, and said slowly: "You have also rested, I want to tell you something now, you listen calmly, don't be angry. You will know about this sooner or later, listen to me It’s better to talk than to listen to others.”

Ye Peiqing smiled and said, "What's so serious? I'm not angry."

The old lady took a sip of tea and said, "How do you think the emperor treats you?"

Ye Peiqing said: "The emperor intends to use me."

The old lady said, "How is your relationship with the prince?"

Ye Peiqing said: "The grandson dare not say it."

"I heard that the crown prince asked you to go to the banquet tomorrow, does that mean that the relationship is not bad?"

"Yes."

The old lady cleared her throat: "You have royal blood, now the emperor wants to use you, and the crown prince also thinks highly of you. The future is limitless. I want to tell you something now. After listening to it, you should think about it and decide what to do. How to do it."

Ye Peiqing frowned and said, "Tell me, old lady, what is it?"

The old lady looked at his face, and slowly told the story of the night of the banquet in the imperial garden.

There was a silence in the room, only the sound of the old lady picking up the teacup was heard.

Ye Peiqing lowered his head, no expression could be seen on his face, but he clenched his fists tightly.

The old lady said: "I asked your grandfather to save him twice, and I couldn't stand it anymore. If this continues, not only Meiyu will offend the emperor, but your grandfather will also offend the holy face. I wanted to ask the empress dowager, but she You're getting old and your health is not good. Once the empress dowager leaves, the emperor will take revenge on your grandfather if you can't keep it."

Ye Peiqing remained silent.

The old lady said: "I discussed this matter with your grandfather. Mei Yu is indeed poor, and she was also unlucky to be favored by the emperor. But he is the emperor, if he wants to fancy someone, he can get it no matter what. If he gives you a glass of poisoned wine, he can still tie Mei Yu to the palace. Don’t you think so?”

Ye Peiqing said coldly: "There are so many people around Hunjun, why are you interested in him for no reason?"

The old lady quickly reprimanded: "Nonsense! I'm afraid you can't help it. Is it okay for people to hear it?" She sighed and said: "The holy will is unpredictable. If you can't keep it, you will be framed. Your grandfather said that once the emperor sees The last person, I'm afraid I can't give up if I don't get it. What do you think should be done about this?"

Ye Peiqing said in a low voice: "If the emperor has the slightest sympathy for the soldiers who are going out, he won't take advantage of me to be hostile towards Mei Yu."

The old lady reprimanded again: "Be careful what you say."

Ye Peiqing said, "What does the old lady mean?"

The old lady said in a low voice, "I'm afraid you don't like my method."

Ye Peiqing said, "What way?"

The old lady said: "Observe for a while first, if the emperor's interest in Mei Yu does not diminish, you can only make peace with Mei Yu and separate the relationship."

Ye Peiqing held back his anger and remained silent.

The old lady said: "I know you definitely don't like it. But how do you fight against the emperor? Do you want to be beheaded for resisting the decree, or do you want to disfigure Mei Yu so that the emperor will completely lose interest in him?"

Ye Peiqing said: "The old lady said it lightly. If we reconcile, wouldn't the emperor justifiably call him into the palace?"

The old lady said: "That is also his fate. Everyone has their own destiny. I don't like him, but I have to have a limit. You can't offend the emperor because of him. You ruined your future. If you are not careful, It's a matter of losing your life."

Ye Peiqing said: "According to Mei Yu's character, he will die if he enters the palace. Why is the old lady so cruel? Didn't the old lady ask him to take care of me for the rest of my life? Now she pushed him into the tiger's mouth?"

The old lady said angrily: "I didn't know that the emperor would take a fancy to him, and I didn't know that you would not take concubines for him! I don't like you. What do you look like when you die? For the sake of the children's personal relationship, a little You can't afford to let it go. If you don't take a concubine, how will you carry on the family line in the future? I don't know what happened to one or two of you, and you fought to the death for him. You don't think about yourself, don't you think about the whole Mu Guofu? He alone If someone offends the emperor, our whole family will be buried with him!"

Ye Peiqing held back her anger and said: "I understand what the old lady means. If you lose your pawn and save the car, Mei Yu's life is not important. Who told you that his life is not good."

"That's what I mean. I've been on the battlefield, and I don't care about the overall situation at all!" After speaking, he was so angry that his chest hurt, and he shouted, "Qinglan, send the prince out!"

Qinglan only knew that the old lady and Shizi were arguing, but she didn't understand what they were arguing about, so she rushed in and said, "Young Master, let's go out to get some fresh air, the old lady is going to take a nap too."

The servants saw Ye Peiqing rushing out of the old lady's room, with an ugly expression on his face, leaving Mu Guofu like a gust of wind.

……

After the fourth watch, everything was silent, Thirteen breathed out Daoyin, and absorbed the true energy circulating in the whole body.Nanny Zhou gently opened the door, poked her head in and said cautiously: "It's getting late, madam, let's go to bed first."

Thirteen said: "Go to bed first. I'll wait for him."

Nanny Zhou said: "The son didn't know what he was arguing with the old lady today, and he hasn't come back now. Madam, don't worry, if you don't come back, I will look for him tomorrow morning."

Thirteen said: "He didn't change his medicine today, I'll wait for him a little longer, you go to bed first."

Nanny Zhou poured Shisan a cup of hot tea and went down.

After a long time, there was a violent sound of opening and closing the door outside, and it fell into silence again.

Thirteen quietly got out of bed and opened the door of the inner room.

It was pitch black outside, only the sound of people's breathing could be heard.

Thirteen said in a low voice, "Your Majesty hasn't changed his dressing today, I'm afraid the wound won't be able to bear it."

The room was still silent.

Shisan walked to the bed, groped Ye Peiqing's shoulder, felt a little wet, and said, "Blood is coming out, it's time to change the dressing."

Ye Peiqing's breathing became heavy, and he was pulled down on the bed.Thirteen understood that he was in a bad mood, so he endured without resistance and let him bite on himself to vent.

Ye Peiqing said in a low voice: "Why did the Emperor Hun bully you that day? Where did he touch you? Here? Or here?"

All the pinches were on Thirteen's sensitive parts, and his hands were unambiguous.A painful and numb feeling came, and Shisan let out a painful snort.

Ye Peiqing's anger was stuck in his chest: "How did he bully you?"

Thirteen was bitten by him until his lip was cut, and he said vaguely, "I didn't bully him, and I didn't touch him anywhere."

Ye Peiqing whispered in his ear: "The Hunjun deceives others too much. I will work hard for him. He wants to tear us apart for his own selfish desire. I will kill him sooner or later."

Thirteen whispered, "My lord, don't talk nonsense."

In the past few days, he has been thinking about how to assassinate the Hunjun, but he can't think about it.The palace was heavily guarded and it was difficult to get close to the emperor. If someone saw his face, it would implicate Ye Peiqing and Mu Guofu.

The only way is to pretend to commit oneself to the emperor, take advantage of his unpreparedness, kill him on the bed, and then disfigure himself to commit suicide, so that people can't see his identity.

Ye Peiqing finally calmed down, sat up and said, "Change my medicine."

Thirteen lit the candles, pulled Ye Peiqing's blood-soaked white cloth back, and asked, "What did the old lady say today?"

Ye Peiqing was silent for a while, then said calmly: "I didn't say anything, I said you were frightened, and told me to take good care of you."

Thirteen said: "Thanks to the old lady and Ninth Prince for saving me."

Ye Peiqing said: "You don't have to go to the banquet in the Crown Prince's East Palace tomorrow. From now on, you are not allowed to go out. If the emperor invites you into the palace, you will send someone to tell me immediately."

"it is good."

The candlelight was warm and dim, creating a hazy haze around the two of them.

Ye Peiqing hugged his waist and said: "You are my man in life, and my ghost in death. If anyone dares to bully you, you must pass my test first."

Thirteen bowed his head and said nothing.

Ye Peiqing smiled and said, "Since you won't go to the East Palace tomorrow, show me that white suit now. I love seeing you fight in that suit the most."

Thirteen did not refuse, changed into that set of clothes and went to the courtyard, and performed a set of sword skills for Ye Peiqing in the moonlight.

Rising up in the sky, and then falling straight down, like a banished immortal.

The move was fast and accurate, but without the slightest murderous intent.The posture is not graceful, but it only makes people feel carefree.Shisan has always practiced swords for the purpose of killing people, and this is the first time he has performed for others.

He put away his sword and stood aside, waiting for Ye Peiqing's comment.

Ye Peiqing was thinking about something else.

He said solemnly: "Your swordsmanship has improved a lot, come and come to bed with me, we will discuss in detail by candlelight."

Thirteen said: "It can also be discussed here."

Ye Peiqing looked at the bright moon in the sky and nodded: "Although the scenery is beautiful, I also want to spend the night with the beautiful woman here, but it's a pity that there are servants watching, so it's not convenient."

Said and pulled him into the house.

Ye Peiqing and Shisan had a whole night of discussion and learned a lot, which is innumerable.

The two of them didn't wake up until noon the next day. Thirteen looked at the sky and thought vaguely: the spring night is bitter, the day is high, and the king will not go to court early.

It's really not good to think about it this way.He shook his head quickly.

Ye Peiqing said: "The old lady is not in good health recently, and she doesn't want to see anyone, so you don't want to go to her place. I asked the kitchen to make ginseng soup for her every day, and I said that you sent it over. You can rest assured in this yard." Practice at home, and deal with family affairs in the rest of the time, don't go out casually."

Thirteen had almost understood at this time, thought for a while and said: "Everything is to be obeyed by the crown prince."

Ye Peiqing said again: "Tomorrow you have to enter the palace to pay homage to the Holy Majesty, even if you are sick, you can't refuse. If you are really afraid, you have to bear it."

Thirteen said: "Don't be afraid, just looking at that emperor makes you want to vomit."

Ye Peiqing said: "Then when you're old, you don't have to worry about kidney failure."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and hugged each other for a while before Ye Peiqing got up and dressed, ready to go.

The prince hosted a banquet for several people, all of whom were generals from the Western Expedition.The elders in the military camp were familiar with each other after being together for a few months, and the prince could not finish his wine. They all drank to their heart's content, staggered drunk, and either sang loudly or fell asleep.

Only the Prince and Ye Peiqing were sober.

The crown prince said to Ye Peiqing: "I heard that General Ye is looking for an antidote to diamond powder?"

Ye Peiqing smiled and said: "The crown prince is well informed. A relative was poisoned with diamond powder, but after inquiring for a long time, I realized that this poison cannot be cured."

The prince took out a small porcelain bottle and said, "This bottle of elixir is hard to find. Eating it can repair the inner wall of the stomach. Although it can't completely detoxify, it has some effect. General Ye can take it back and try."

Ye Peiqing said hastily: "You will not be rewarded for your merits. Ye dare not."

The crown prince hesitated and said: "General Ye and I have fought side by side for several months, what is the difference? I just did my best."

Ye Peiqing thought: Then I dare not accept it even more, why don't I go find it myself.

The prince put down the vial, drank a glass of wine and said, "Has General Ye heard about the harem?"

"I haven't heard anything yet."

"When I came back, I heard that the queen gave a priceless treasure to Concubine Yun's son to celebrate his birthday. The two of them came and went, and they were very close. The queen may be plotting with Concubine Yun to use her five-year-old son My son contends with me, which makes people worry."

King Jin passed away, and the queen lost the bargaining chip for the crown prince.If she lets the prince succeed to the throne, and is afraid that he will retaliate, she will naturally find a way to pull the prince down.

Ye Peiqing said: "Although the emperor likes Concubine Yun and the eighth prince, he will not be so dizzy that he wants to abolish the prince and install a five-year-old child to succeed him. The prince doesn't have to worry about it for now."

There is indeed no danger for the time being, but there will indeed be danger in the near future.

Ye Peiqing couldn't tell him for now.

The prince said again: "General Ye must have heard about the father and Mei commenting on things? It was all done by the empress."

The man started to sow discord.

Ye Peiqing drank slowly.

The prince looked at him thoughtfully: "As long as my father is alive, my seat will not be guaranteed, and General Ye and Mei Juan will be in danger for one more day. The queen is cunning and vicious, and she doesn't know what she will do to Mei Juan. what come?"

Miss Shi Jun?I already knew you couldn't hold your breath.

Ye Peiqing pretended to be stupid and said: "Ye Mou couldn't understand the prince's words. The emperor's dragon body is healthy and his life is as long as the sky."

Now is not the time to wait slowly.If you want revenge, you have to be calm.

The crown prince looked at him and said with a smile: "That's right, that's right, Father will live a long life."

The two raised their wine glasses and drank each other.
