Chapter 79 Punishment

King Rui heard Xiao Huazi crying and talking about the concubine, and the Queen Mother personally intervened. Knowing that this matter was extraordinary, he immediately sent a dark guard out of the palace to find the emperor. The news of the spy was that the emperor was in Jincheng, and Li Yuncheng and the emperor were in Jincheng. not far.

When he arrived at Changxin Palace with several guards and eunuchs, the Queen Mother had already ordered Lan Ling to be killed.

Xiao Rongzi looked for Tian Ming, but couldn't find it for a long time. He had no choice but to find King Rui, and there was a delay in the middle.

"Stop it all!" King Rui shouted loudly.

The queen turned pale. On weekdays, the fifth prince and Lan Ling were very close. At this time, it was not a good thing for him to stand up for her.

"King Rui, the queen is dealing with the concubines of the harem, do you want to intervene?" The queen mother sternly said.

"Empress mother, the concubine is the concubine of the emperor's brother, after all, the emperor's brother will be back soon, can we wait for the emperor's brother to come back and deal with it?"

King Rui saw Lan Ling gagged and tied to a stool, his face was pale, and his body was stained with blood.

When Ling Chen and his party were resting in Jincheng, they encountered a group of assassins. There were more than 20 people. They seemed to be menacing, but they rushed up after a few moves. They were killed and they fled in a hurry.

Everyone was speculating about the origin of the assassin, and Tian Ming arrived with someone.

"Why are you here? Didn't I ask you to protect... the palace?" Ling Chen was surprised.

"King Rui has received information that someone is going to assassinate the emperor, so he sent Wei Chen to respond." Tian Ming replied.

"There are assassins, but they have already run away. King Rui is very well informed. How is the palace?"

"Peace. It's just that when Wei Chen came, the empress was calling everyone to the Zhong'an Palace to discuss matters."

"All gone?" Ling Chen asked.

"It's all over. The concubine, the concubine, was not in good health. The maid of the empress said that it is related to the emperor's son and must go."

The emperor frowned.

Huo Jingyun glanced at Ling Chen: "Your Majesty, when will we leave?"

Ling Chen looked at Wen Heng, just now Wen Heng said he had a headache, so he rested here.

"How are you Heng'er?" Ling Chen asked Wen Heng.

Wen Heng actually didn't want to return to the palace so early. During this time with Ling Chen, it was as if he had returned to the past. At that time, Ling Chen told her everything, and there was never any rift between the two.

Although the current Ling Chen was often absent-minded, as long as he stayed by her side, she believed that his heart would come back.

"It's better, you can leave after a short rest." Wen Heng replied weakly, reaching out to hold Ling Chen's hand.

Ling Chen nodded and held her hand. He was a little flustered today, and the shadow of Lan Ling always appeared in front of him.

Jincheng was also close to Yuncheng, so he wanted to go back early.

At this time, Gu Fan hurried over with a secret guard.

The dark guard knelt down: "Report to the emperor, the queen mother ordered the empress to lead people to search the palace. Unclean things were found in the Changxin Palace, and they are interrogating..."

Before the dark guard could finish speaking, the emperor stood up "huo" and said to Gu Fan and Yang Shuo, "Leave all the guards to you, protect Concubine Yi!"

"You guys are going back to the palace with me!" Ling Chen only brought Huo Jingyun, Bai Shaoting and Tian Ming, and flew away on their horses.

When it comes to her, he is so complacent, he still doesn't admit that he has changed his mind! Wen Heng lost his mind, clenched his fists, and the long armor sank deep into the flesh.

Changxin Palace.

The eunuch who blamed Lan Ling saw that King Rui stopped him and stopped.

Lixia Qiaochun and Jixiang were pressed to the ground and couldn't move, and the little girls such as Ruyi were already frightened. Several eunuchs were also held there, only to wait for their master to be executed before they were executed.

The appearance of King Rui gave them hope.

The queen mother sneered and threw the villain from the blue spirit room in front of King Rui, "King Rui, take a closer look at what she has done? She is just a concubine of the emperor, and there is no need for the emperor to do such a treacherous thing. Deal with it personally, or does King Rui think that the Ai family has no power to deal with a concubine?"

"Empress mother, Ling Yu didn't dare, but when the emperor left, he specifically explained that anything in Changxin Palace would be dealt with when he came back." King Rui defended.

"Aren't you worried that your royal brother has not had any children for so many years? Or does King Rui hope so?"

After listening to the Queen Mother's words, King Rui knelt down directly, "Ling Yu dare not, Ling Yu just follows the emperor's brother..."

"What are you waiting for? Are you all wrong?" The queen mother glared at the eunuch who was carrying the stick.

Minister Lin winked, and the stick fell on Lan Ling again.

Li Xia broke free from the eunuch's pressure, crying and lying on Lan Ling's body, next to her.

A eunuch jumped up and grabbed her.

"Since she wants to be tortured with the master so much, satisfy her." The queen glanced at Xiao Jin.

Immediately, a eunuch pulled Li Xia to the side and directly pressed it on the ground and started banging.

"If anyone disturbs the executioner, kill them directly!" The queen's voice was stern.

"Empress mother, when the emperor left, he explained that Ling Yu was in power temporarily. Please allow the empress to take the concubine into custody until the emperor returns to deal with it!"

"Five, did the emperor say that even the harem would let you manage it?" The queen mother sneered.

Rui Wang's face turned red.

Seeing that Lan Ling was dead.

Lan Ling raised her head, and in a daze, a little eunuch jumped over to her body, she didn't see who it was, the little eunuch had been pierced by the sword...

Lan Ling began to struggle, she wanted to tell them, don't come over, don't be stupid, come here is to die, but they can't move.

The sound of a stick on her body, the pain that penetrated into her heart and lungs, and the dull pain in her chest, her throat was bitter and sweet, and she spit out a mouthful of blood, but her mouth was covered with a white cloth, and the blood was trapped in her mouth and slowly seeped out. Lan Ling's heart is sad, is this life and death also so tragic?

Ling Chen, Ling Chen, where are you? She shouted Ling Chen's name loudly, and her mouth was covered, so she couldn't make a sound.

In a trance, she saw a pair of bright yellow dragon-patterned brocade boots walking towards her. A few tall figures flashed past.

Then I saw everyone kneeling there, "Kow to the emperor, long live the emperor, long live!"

As if someone hugged him.

Familiar voice, familiar taste of green sandalwood. A pair of painful phoenix eyes appeared in front of her eyes, and he carefully took out the cloth from her mouth.

She reached out and touched his face, "Is that you Ling Chen? Am I dreaming?" Her vision was blurred, a mouthful of fresh blood protruded, Ling Chen caught it with both hands, and all the fresh blood spat out on Ling Chen's hands and body .

"It's me. It's not a dream." He hugged her, his voice surprisingly gentle,

"Ling Chen, am I going to die? Why can't I see your face?"

"You won't die, I won't let you die! Lan Ling, why would you have an accident if I wasn't here! Stop talking. Li Xia, give your master a heart-protecting pill." He turned to call her girl.

Qiao Chun came up and gave Lan Ling medicine, "Your Majesty, Li Xia has been knocked unconscious!"

Lan Ling slowly lost consciousness and fainted.

I can't feed the medicine.

The emperor took the cup, put the medicine in his mouth, and gave it to her.

The queen knelt there with a pale face, she was shaky looking at everything the emperor had done for Lan Ling.

The queen mother never saw the emperor like this. He personally delivered the medicine to Lan Ling! Did get it wrong before? Or is that information all fake?

She closed her eyes slightly and thought to herself, Lan Ling would definitely tell the emperor about Concubine Lin, and then she could only insist that Lan Ling held a grudge and framed her for being punished by her!

"Tian Ming, look after the people here, everyone must not leave! Xuan Yuyi!" The emperor's voice was surprisingly gentle, but Yang Shu's back was sweating. The emperor was trying to suppress his anger.
