Empress is a sick beauty

The wine glass in front of the case did not move at all, Ling Xi got up with a smile, cupped his hands and said, "I am lucky to meet you today, it is really fate. My son is very kind, please forgive me for being overwhelmed by alcohol, and I will not pay back when I am ill. .”

He took care of his face and said the truth, these people will give up if they have any knowledge.However, the sky failed to fulfill his wish, so he met a few people who didn't know the general idea.

After hearing this, the man not only didn't go down the slope, but instead persuaded him to drink more aggressively, as if he was competing with Ling Xi, "Mr. Ling, this is wrong, it's just a glass of wine, I didn't pour you too much, why can't you drink it? Or does Mr. Ling look down on us and refuse to show face? As the saying goes, good feelings are deeply boring, Mr. Ling don't want to refuse any more."

A few men next to him also booed together, as if he would not leave until he drank the glass of wine.

Ling Xi couldn't help but secretly sighed, she couldn't cause trouble for her eldest brother, so she patiently said, "Young master, what you said is wrong. I sincerely respect you, so I tell you the truth, and don't lie. If you also respect me, why bother?"

The man snorted coldly, "Young Master Ling, you are serious. How dare we make things difficult for you? As soon as you appeared, you captivated the eyes of all the ladies and maids present. If we make things difficult for you, wouldn't we want to make everyone angry?"

"That's right, my cousin's fiancée didn't look at my cousin just now, she just looked at you." The person next to him suddenly interrupted, and was glared at by the man.

Ling Xi raised her eyebrows, she found out the reason, no wonder she came here specially for him.

At this moment, a young servant walked up to several people, bowed down and said, "Young Master Ling, His Royal Highness King Yi invites you to sit down."

Ling Xi turned her head when she heard the words, the man invited him at this time, could it be that he heard the movement here and came to rescue him?

When the rest of the sons heard the name of King Yi, and heard that King Yi wanted to invite him to sit, they all fell silent, and all the nonsense they had just done disappeared, and they ran away in despair one by one without anyone chasing them away.

When Ling Xi was brought to the main seat, Yun Yi just looked up, and he only glanced at Xu Zhifu. For some reason, all the old men who were around Yun Yi were led away by Xu Zhifu, and the main seat Just the two of them.

Yun Yi picked up her wine cup, poured a glass of wine and handed it over, "Sit."

After Ling Xi sat down, she realized that the seat she was sitting on belonged to Shou Xing himself. Just as he was about to get up again, Yun Yi gently pressed his shoulder.

"It's okay, this wine is not strong, you can drink it, but you can only drink one glass."

Ling Xi sniffed the wine in his hand, it was different from the peach blossom brew that day, but it was also the sweet taste he liked, and after drinking it, he found that besides the sweet taste, there was also a little sour taste.

"What wine?"

Yun Yi took back the wine cup, "Green plum wine, sweet-scented osmanthus wine, apricot wine, low alcohol and not strong, drink less to warm up, suitable for you."

The invitation sent to Shen's residence was that he deliberately asked Xu Zhifu to add Ling Xi's name in order to create an opportunity.Knowing that Ling Xi would come, he specially asked someone to prepare sweet wine. In the whole banquet, only the jug in front of him contained green plum wine.

Ling Xi couldn't help smiling after hearing this, he really likes sweet things, it suits him.

Sensing the seemingly invisible eyes drifting over, Ling Xi raised his head, and saw those people sitting in the front seats looking at the main seat from time to time, and when they met his eyes, they immediately looked away in a panic, but they looked back after a while.

"Do you want to go out and get some air?"

Ling Xi turned her head and said without thinking, "Think."

Although the place is lively and warm, with delicious food and wine, he does not like to be flattered and flattered, so he often feels like an outsider.

"But, elder brother is still here." He promised elder brother to stay where he was.

Yun Yi heard what he was worried about, and said, "It's okay, I'll send my subordinates to inform Mr. Shen, we'll just stay in the courtyard for a while, and we'll be right back."

Ling Xi went out of the living room with him, and came to a gazebo in the courtyard, the evening breeze was already warming him, even if he sat for a while, it would be fine.

There was originally a stone table and four stone benches in the gazebo, whichever one Ling Xi wanted to sit on was the same, but he saw that one of the benches was covered with a thick mat.

The only one who can make such preparations is the person in front of him. It seems that he has long wanted to lure him here, and he must have something to tell him.

Now that everyone is ready, there is no reason to live up to their good intentions.Thinking about it, he sat down graciously, "His Royal Highness sits too."

Yun Yi looked at him with his hands behind his back, "Do you feel cold?"

Ling Xi was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered the reason. He might still be brooding over the last time he caught the cold.

"It's not cold, the weather is getting warmer, and this mat is also warmer."

Yun Yi opened his mouth, but suddenly didn't know how to speak.What should he say first in this situation?He should apologize for cheating others, but since he can remember, he has never apologized to anyone, and he has always lived a life of the jungle.

"Your Highness?" Seeing him in a daze, Ling Xi couldn't help thinking to himself, could it be that the matter to be said is too important to speak?

Yun Yi was silent for a moment, and finally looked up, "I'm sorry."

Now it was Ling Xi who was stunned.

"Your Highness...are you apologizing for concealing your identity?"

Seeing Yun Yi's nod, Ling Xi laughed and said, "Your Highness does not need to apologize, it is very inconvenient to act as a royal outside, and it is reasonable and reasonable not to announce it for a while."

Yun Yi saw that he didn't seem to mind, "Then we..."

"We are still friends, no matter what your Highness is." After Ling Xi finished speaking, she thought for a while and added, "If His Highness does not give up."

Yun Yi immediately said, "How could that be?"

"Then there's no problem." Seeing that this awkward person was finally willing to take a seat, Ling Xi pushed the dim sum on his side to the middle, "Have your Highness tried this peach cake? It's delicious."

The desserts on the stone table were specially prepared by Yun Yi, and like the mats, they were all made according to Ling Xi's habits and preferences.

"it is good."

Yun Yi reached out to take the dim sum on the plate, but at the next moment, the peach cake in his hand flew out like a sharp weapon, startling a crowd of crows.

In an instant, more than a dozen black-clothed assassins jumped down, with a cold light, and went straight to the gazebo.

"Stay here."

As soon as the words fell, Yunyi came out of the pavilion, grabbed an assassin's sword head-on, and fought with other assassins.

Ling Xi sat in the pavilion without moving, her gaze never leaving Yunyi.After one move, he knew that although these assassins were menacing, they were not Yun Yi's opponents.

One of the assassins suddenly looked into the pavilion, turned around and changed the target, and the sword pointed straight at Ling Xi, but he was killed by the sword without even touching the side of the pavilion.

Yun Yi held a long sword in his hand, and his eyes were stern. He originally wanted to keep them for interrogation, but now he didn't want to.

I saw the sword flying in his hand, and no one left it wherever it went.Moments later, a pile of black-clothed assassin's corpses fell on the ground.Only the assassin at Yunyi's feet survived.

The guards rushed over, saw the scene in front of them, and immediately knelt down to accept the crime.

"Subordinates are late! Please punish me, master!"

Yun Yi didn't have the heart to break up with them, it was he who pushed everyone away in order to talk to Ling Xi.

"Suppress the victim for interrogation, let's deal with it here."

The head of the guard hurriedly bowed, "This subordinate takes orders!"

Yun Yi turned her head and saw Ling Xi was about to go this way, then dropped the long sword, walked quickly to meet the person, "Have you been affected by the sword energy?"

Ling Xi shook her head, secretly thinking that she was all to blame for her serious illness last time, and I am afraid that this person will treat herself as a porcelain doll that cannot be touched.

"Your Highness, do you want to send the doctor to check and see if there is any injury?"

Yun Yi calmed down, "No need, I'm used to it, it's all trivial things."

Hearing what he said, Ling Xi couldn't help but think, is he used to wielding swords and swords, or is he used to shooting openly and secretly?Judging by his expression, it really seems to be commonplace.It seems that although the royal relatives and nobles are noble, life may not be easy.

Yun Yi looked at him, pursed her lower lip, "They came after me, you were frightened in vain."

Ling Xi smiled, "Your Highness don't have to worry about me, seeing His Highness use a sword, the shock is not in vain."

"Ling Xi!"

He turned his head when he heard the sound, and saw Shen Rui rushing towards him, and when he got close, he frowned and sized him up, "Are you hurt?"

"Don't worry, brother, I'm fine."

Here Ling Xi is still comforting her elder brother, while Xu Zhifu and the yamen servant Shanshan arrive late, the flesh on her face and stomach are trembling as she runs, wiping sweat while running.A good birthday banquet meets an assassin, if His Royal Highness Yi Wang is really good or bad in his house, not to mention the Wushamao, the lives of the nine clans will be gone.

"Damn the lower official, the lower official is negligent, Your Highness, are you alright? Come, tell me..." Before he could say anything, Yun Yi gave him a cold look and immediately shut his mouth.

"Prefect Xu has indeed neglected to observe. This matter needs to be explained by Prefect Xu."

Xu Zhifu nodded his head, "I will send someone to investigate immediately, and I will not neglect the investigation!"

After Shen Rui confirmed that his younger brother was fine, his face turned slightly, and then he saluted Yun Yi, "I will bring my younger brother back home now, please don't be surprised by Your Highness."

"Go back to the mansion and pass it on to Mr. Ling, so as not to cause other illnesses." Yun Yi nodded in response, "What happened today is the fault of this king. It has caused Mr. Ling to be frightened, and he will come to the door to apologize in the future."

The two people who have always been at odds with Maimang have reached an unprecedented agreement on taking care of Ling Xi.

After returning to Shen's mansion, Shen Rui really wanted to ask someone to invite the doctor, Ling Xi saw the momentum and stopped him in advance, and repeatedly stated that he was fine, so he gave up Shen Rui's idea of ​​inviting the doctor.

Thinking of the assassination today, Ling Xi couldn't help but frowned.Seeing his worried look, Shen Rui raised his heart that had just settled down, "Are you still feeling unwell?"

"No." Ling Xi pulled his sleeve to make him sit down, "Brother, I was wondering who would assassinate King Yi today."

When Shen Rui heard that he mentioned His Royal Highness Yi Wang, he put his heart back to the original place, "No one can guess the royal affairs. There are many ways in it, and ordinary people like us can't control it."

Although he has no contact with the court, Ling Xi has read a lot of books, official history, unofficial history, and storybook travel notes, and he has never let go of anything he can read a few times.

To be able to assassinate the prince, the identity of the person behind the scenes must be extraordinary, and it is inevitable that they will be involved in the struggle for imperial power.I heard from the eldest brother that Yun Yi has four brothers, even if the prince didn't do it himself, how could the forces behind those brothers watch Yi Wang gain power alone.And what is Yunyi's purpose in coming to Yangzhou all the way?
