I can't afford to mess with the concubine doctor

Chapter 109 Next Steps

Although the first emperor did not show any concern about this, those important officials in the court could not just watch the former emperor's heirs wither, and they wrote again to propose a draft. Yifan, the mistress, the first empress had been anxious because she hadn't conceived again for a long time, and was infested by rumors and gossip. With the queen's appearance, there is no possibility of having another child. The former emperor had no choice but to agree to the draft.

In this draft, a total of five women were favored and entered the palace, and the current queen mother is one of them. The appearance of the queen mother is not the most outstanding among these few people, but she is gentle and cautious, and never takes pride in being favored. He was even more respectful to the first empress, and never violated the rules. Both the first emperor and the first empress were very satisfied with her. In just two years, she was promoted from a small nobleman to a second-rank concubine Rong. The first queen was in poor health, and the right to take care of the trivial matters in the palace was gradually handed over to Concubine Rong.

"The harem has always been a place where you can live and die. If Concubine Rong really has no wealth, how can she win the favor of the late emperor during the draft? All of this is just pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger." Qu Lingxu walked from the carriage. He took out two bottles of coffee from the drawer, and after handing one of them to Leng Yuanxun, he continued: "The former empress was well protected by the first emperor, but she lacked experience in fighting the enemy. The stepping stone didn't know it until the other party also gave birth to a prince and fought against her, only then did she wake up, but unfortunately at that time the other party's wings were already full, and even if she wanted to restrain her, she was powerless."

Today's Empress Dowager, Qu Lingxu is no stranger at all. Although she looks gentle and kind, but when she really gets angry, her thunderous methods are no less than any man. This is from the fact that she attacked the Xu family in the name of helping Qu Lingxu One or two things can be seen.

Qu Lingxu never shied away from Leng Yuanxun, and often took out some modern novelties from the doctor system to share with him. Leng Yuanxun was also accustomed to this. He took a sip of the coffee, which may be because of the bitterness. Frowning slightly, he said with a faint smile: "One is the eldest son with a leg problem, and the other is a concubine who is gifted and intelligent, and his appearance is very similar to his own. Okay, so the crown prince has not been established for a long time. The first emperor wanted to give himself more time to think about it, but in the eyes of the ministers, it was not a good opportunity to bet, so they stood in line one after another, and the two factions fought openly and secretly. For example, today's Murong Jing and Murong Li are even worse."

Qu Lingxu took a sip of his coffee, and Youyou interrupted Leng Yuanxun, "Although I don't know what happened next, it's not difficult to guess. The late Emperor was a man of affection. Deciding to make the eldest son the crown prince is undoubtedly unbearable for Concubine Rong and her party members. They secretly colluded to take advantage of the late emperor's critical illness and killed the crown prince's family with unwarranted crimes, and you... Remaining neutral, but in fact loyal to the prince, Huaiyang Hou rescued him and narrowly escaped with his life."

Qu Lingxu has watched many such stories in movies and TV shows, but never thought that they would actually happen to her. It can be seen that art really comes from life.

"Father replaced me with his own newborn daughter, which did not arouse suspicion, otherwise I would not have survived to this day." Maybe it was because of hatred for a long time. Yuan Xun didn't show too strong hatred, but there was a red flame-like flame faintly flickering in the depths of his eyes, "On my tenth birthday, my father told me the truth of the matter and secretly told me The confidants who have been trained for several years are all entrusted to me, so that one day, I can take back this piece of land that originally belonged to me."

Except for Huaiyanghou and a few confidantes, no one else would know about such an obscure secret, but Leng Yuanxun told Qu Lingxu all without reservation. This kind of trust is far from a word of "love". can be expressed.

"In these years, in order to satisfy his own desires, the emperor spared no effort to build a palace. The people's grievances and resistance continued. Fortunately, the border is stable, and there are no large-scale disasters and plagues in the country. This is why he tried his best to support it. Now the wings of the Red Lotus Sect are gradually growing. Plump, the northern region is not peaceful, I am afraid that the world will be in chaos soon." Qu Lingxu took a deep look at Leng Yuanxun, "Aren't you afraid that I will inform you and let your great cause that you have been planning for several years be destroyed? "

"If you really wanted me to die, you wouldn't go all the way to Jiangling to save me, and you wouldn't choose the dangerous road to Xiling to save time." Leng Yuanxun said calmly, without any hesitation or doubt, just like Qu From the very beginning, Lingxu never shy away from things like needle serum and other things that do not belong to this era in front of the other party.

The word "trust" is so wonderful.

Qu Lingxu did not answer Leng Yuanxun's words, but continued: "This time, although there is no solid evidence to prove that Murong Li is related to the secret guard, in this capital, the only one who can secretly communicate with Xu, except Concubine Xu There is no one else with Murong Li, the emperor is suspicious by nature, even if he can't deal with it, he will definitely be more vigilant against Murong Li, it will not be so convenient for him to plan any conspiracy in the future."

Although Murong Li's power will be weakened, it cannot be shaken fundamentally. Not to mention that Mrs. Xu has been favored for many years, the emperor treats her much more affectionately than other concubines. The momentum and arrogance will definitely increase greatly, so that the current balance in the court will be completely broken, and this is undoubtedly what the emperor does not want to see.

Both Leng Yuanxun and Qu Lingxu knew this very well, so what they had to do was not to defeat Murong Li, but to weaken his power little by little and remove his wings.

Among these wings, the one who bears the brunt is naturally that genius doctor Xu, who is so unpredictable.

"You mean to use the influence of the Dugu Sect to completely eliminate Miracle Doctor Xu?" Hearing Qu Lingxu's analysis, Leng Yuanxun raised his eyebrows.

"The affairs in the Jianghu naturally have to be resolved with the methods of the Jianghu. The two elders, Yao Xuan and Du Ming, have hated Miracle Doctor Xu for a long time, and they will definitely do their best. We just need to provide some help when the time is right. " Qu Lingxu smiled lightly.

In fact, there is another most important reason why she chose to deal with Dr. Xu first. After thinking about it these days, she always felt that the other party must be researching some new type of virus these days. If he is allowed to continue, she will not know in the future How many people will suffer innocently, so they must smash the opponent's conspiracy as quickly as possible!

"You don't have to worry about this, I will take care of it myself." Leng Yuanxun's thoughts coincided with Qu Lingxu's, and there was no need for extra explanation.

"Hmm." When mentioning the Dugu faction, Qu Lingxu thought of something, and asked, "You must have fought against Mo Ruyu before you were able to escape from Xiling Mountain."

Seeing Qu Lingxu looking at him curiously, the corners of Leng Yuanxun's lips curled up in a haughty arc, and he snorted lightly, "It's impossible to trap me even with Mo Ruyu's three-legged cat skills. Self-restraint."

"I don't think so. Among other things, his lightness skill must be higher than yours." Qu Lingxu poured cold water on him unceremoniously.

Speaking of qinggong, Qu Lingxu couldn't hide the envious look in Qu Lingxu's eyes. She didn't want to be like Mo Ruyu, flying over the walls and going to heaven and earth, as long as she could float on water.

Hey, people are better than people, it's maddening.

Qu Lingxu's look of envy and admiration overturned the jealousy in Leng Yuanxun's heart in an instant. His handsome face that was still extremely arrogant just now darkened instantly, and he said indifferently: "People with weak strength can only I can practice lightness kung fu hard, otherwise how can I escape my life?"

People like Leng Yuanxun have never set foot on Xiling Mountain, not because they are afraid of the strength of the Dugu faction, but because they are waiting for an excellent opportunity to acquire it in one fell swoop, although the accident of this trip to Jiangling made this plan ahead of schedule. It took half a year, but he was already fully prepared, so he only used half of Qu Lingxu's time that day to crack the formation in the mountain, and even slightly surpassed Mo Ruyu in martial arts.

Of course, both Leng Yuanxun and Mo Ruyu are top-notch masters in the world today, and the more extreme they are in everything, the less room they can break through. Therefore, even a slight improvement is a small difference, a thousand miles away.

For this reason, Mo Ruyu was quite depressed, and immediately announced that she would practice in seclusion for two months, and after leaving the seclusion, she would seek revenge from Leng Yuanxun.

Leng Yuanxun's move was only to frustrate Mo Ruyu's spirit, and he did not intend to offend the Dugu Sect, a gangster who was of great help to him, to death, so he promised to wait for Mo Ruyu in the capital two months later, Of course, with the agreement that Qu Lingxu had negotiated before, Mo Ruyu would also go to Beijing sooner or later, just to learn martial arts with Leng Yuanxun by the way.

Looking at Leng Yuanxun's arrogant and awkward face, Qu Lingxu felt dumbfounded for a moment, and just rolled his eyes helplessly, "Too confident is not a good thing."

"I'm just telling the truth, how about..." Leng Yuanxun stretched his long arms lightly, and the next moment, he embraced Qu Lingxu in his arms, and smiled charmingly, "Come and try?"

"You'd better let go quickly, or... you will be at your own peril." Qu Lingxu's smile on his face is as charming as the consequences of an outbreak. This point, Leng Yuanxun, who has experienced it many times in person, is undoubtedly the most intelligible. right to speak.

However, he was not threatened, but chuckled calmly and said, "What if I don't let go?"
