I can't afford to mess with the concubine doctor

Chapter 274
Although the Marquis of Huaiyang didn't say it clearly, how could Qu Lingxu not understand the deep meaning in it, so he just knelt down and blessed him, and said respectfully: "Xu'er just did what he was supposed to do, and my father praised him absurdly."

Qu Lingxu's dignified and generous appearance made Huaiyang Hou more happy, but he didn't say much, he just stood up, "It's getting late, let's go."

Although Leng Yuanxun didn't want the Marquis of Huaiyang, who was recovering from a serious illness, to be so exhausted, but seeing the other party's posture, there was no room for maneuver, so he had to agree, and he and Qu Lingxu followed Huaiyang Hou out of the mansion hand in hand.

The Marquis of Huaiyang walked ahead in a carriage that symbolized his status as a marquis, followed by Leng Yuanxun and Qu Lingxu, and got into the carriage. Qu Lingxu was a little worried and said, "I heard from Yunyi that my father's body has been feeling a little unwell recently. , after the palace banquet is over, I should give my father another diagnosis and treatment."

"Ah."

Although Leng Yuanxun is not a doctor, he is more aware of Huaiyanghou's illness than Qu Lingxu. Now that the major event has not been accomplished, Huaiyanghou has this wish hanging, even if the illness is serious, he will force his spirits, but once With the success of the battle for the throne, his spirit will definitely relax. At that time, I'm afraid his condition will be even more dire.

Due to the illness of Marquis Huaiyang and the complicated situation to be faced in a short while, although Leng Yuanxun and Qu Lingxu sat hugging each other, they both fell silent. Under such silence, the palace arrived soon.

"Please Leng Shizi, Shizi Concubine get on the sedan chair." There was a little eunuch who was already at the gate of the palace, when he saw the carriage stop, he immediately knelt down and used it as a human stool.

Leng Yuanxun was very skilled in martial arts, so he didn't need unnecessary services. Qu Lingxu couldn't accept this kind of human rights violation in ancient times, so they both bypassed the small inner prison, got out of the carriage, and walked towards the palace hand in hand.

In order to have no other scenery in winter, various types of plum blossoms are planted around the palace. At this time, the plum blossoms bloom in the first frost, which is very beautiful. Even if you walk in the corridor where you can’t see the color of the flowers, you can still smell the tangy aroma. .

Taking the opportunity of admiring the plum blossoms, Qu Lingxu secretly noticed the situation of the guards in the palace. Although it looked the same as usual, after careful observation, it was found that the guards hidden in the dark were much bigger than usual. This is more than doubled, that is to say, their every move is under the surveillance of others, and if there is a slight change, the emperor will know it immediately.

"For this Hongmen banquet, the emperor has spent a lot of effort." Qu Lingxu turned his head slightly and whispered in Leng Yuanxun's ear.

"The building is about to fall, it's just a dying struggle." Leng Yuanxun's indifferent eyes fell far away on the golden light of the Hall of Qinzheng, and said word by word: "20 years, it's time to end."

In order to show solemnity, the emperor specially set the banquet location in the side hall of Qinzheng Hall where he usually lives. When Leng Yuanxun and Qu Lingxu entered the hall, the other attendants had already arrived early. Minister of the Ministry of War Li Bin was chatting with his colleagues. Yuan Xun hurried forward to greet him, cupped his hands with a half smile and said: "Master Leng, Concubine."

"Your Majesty Li is polite." Leng Yuanxun glanced around the hall indifferently, and he already had some concerns in his heart, so he didn't say anything to Li Bin, and only took Li Qu Lingxu to sit in the prescribed seat.

Li Bin and Leng Yuanxun had a long-standing quarrel, and now being ignored by the other party, he was mad with hatred in his heart, but considering the emperor's previous entrustment, he had to force himself to endure it.

Leng Yuanxun, let's see how long you can be proud, even if you don't have evidence today, you can never walk out of the Palace of Qinzheng unscathed!

Such thoughts did not linger in Li Bin's mind for too long, because soon the high-pitched voice of the internal warden came to his ears, "The emperor is here, and the imperial concubine Li is here!"

Hearing the sound, Qu Lingxu put down the teacup in his hand, bowed his knees together with everyone and said: "Wan'an, the emperor, Wan'an, the imperial concubine."

"Get up, everyone, today is a small gathering, don't stick to those common etiquette."

"What the emperor said is true." Li Guifei smiled, helped Qu Lingxu up herself, looked at her carefully, and then nodded and said: "Although Shi Zifei looks a little tired, she looks very good, she should not be too big I'm in the way."

I haven't seen you for many days, Li Guifei is not what she used to be, she is wearing a wine red brocade gown today, which is only a little lighter than the red color used by the empress of the main palace, on the towering palace bun according to the imperial concubine's etiquette. Twelve stances set off her charming cheeks with an overwhelming sense of nobility.

Without a few strong enemies, it really is different.

Qu Lingxu was thinking like this, but there was nothing missing on his face, he just respectfully said: "With the emperor and the imperial concubine caring so much, the concubines will be safe and sound." Qu Lingxu smiled humbly, blessed again, " Your Majesty gave me a banquet, and my concubine was very grateful."

Before it's time to turn their faces, these scene skills are still indispensable.

This time, before the noble concubine Li could speak, the emperor who had sat on top smiled lightly and said, "The concubine concubine has saved both me and the queen mother, let alone a mere banquet, no matter how grand the ceremony is, I can afford it." rise."

Since the emperor was injured, although he has been carefully recuperating for more than a month, he has hurt his foundation for so many years of sensuality, and he has been turned around from the gate of hell. The dark blue under the eyes can't be covered up no matter what.

The emperor's words were extremely polite, Qu Lingxu was about to thank her, but saw the other party's conversation changed, and said quietly: "The concubine is usually healthy, why did she suddenly catch such a severe cold, recently there have been rumors in the capital, everyone said You are not Qu Lingxu, but a substitute, how do you explain it?"

Although Qu Lingxu knew that the emperor would definitely ask about this matter, he did not expect that the other party would go straight in like this, and it was inevitable that he would be a little stunned when the banquet had not yet started, but it was only for a moment. Regarding the rumors in Beijing, the concubines have also heard about them. The reason why they have not come forward to clarify is because the concubine is ill and can't take care of herself, and the other is that she believes that the rumors will only stop with the wise and will not cause any trouble. I did not expect such nonsense It is really the fault of the minister and concubine that the talk has polluted the emperor's hearing."

Saying so, Qu Lingxu knelt down on his knees, with the appearance of apologizing.

"You get up first." The emperor didn't blame Qu Lingxu immediately, but raised his eyebrows and said, "I don't believe that, but someone swore to me that you must not be the real Qu Lingxu, and you Some people say that I have seen you in the north, so I have to give her this opportunity to prove myself."

Saying so, the emperor raised his eyes and glanced at the inner eunuch who was close to him, the inner eunuch understood and quickly retreated, when he entered the palace again, there was a woman behind him.

Although the woman kept her head down, Qu Lingxu recognized her at a glance.

Besides Qu Fengyan, who else could think of making things difficult for her all the time?

To say that she is quite capable, she was imprisoned in another courtyard by Qing Yang a few days ago, and she was able to enter the palace quietly. No future troubles.

Thinking of how this little bitch gave Leng Yuanxun that kind of dirty medicine, which aggravated the toxicity in his body, Qu Lingxu wished to cut Qu Fengyan to pieces.

Just as he was thinking, the person had come to the front. Qu Fengyan had entered the palace many times to pay his respects. He was very familiar with the etiquette. After saluting the emperor and Concubine Li, he glanced at Qu Lingxu calmly, showing The color of pride.

Qu Fengyan was a prisoner of the imperial court, and was going to be sent to be an official prostitute. Qu Lingxu couldn't help showing a surprised expression, and frowned in shock: "Second sister...you...how did you appear here?"

At that time, Qu Fengyan was rescued, although it was Qu Lingxu's intention, but she did not show up, so the charge of disobedience and disrespect naturally did not fall on her head. It must be very clear, so even if Li Shi disagrees with Leng Yuanxun again, he will not be so stupid as to want to risk his life on it.

Seeing Qu Lingxu's state of mind, the emperor raised his eyebrows slightly, and was about to speak, but Qu Fengyan couldn't help but said first: "My sister is able to stand here, isn't it thanks to my sister Li Daitao's ingenious plan, why is my sister down now? Refuse to admit it?"

Qu Fengyan was able to escape from the other courtyard because of the help of Mrs. Li. She knew very well that this might be her last chance, because even if she committed a crime and performed meritorious service, the emperor would not avoid her punishment. Her errands continue to be slaves, so she must make good use of this opportunity, so that Qu Lingxu will never have a chance to stand up again!
"What is my sister talking about?" As much as Qu Fengyan hated Qu Lingxu, Qu Lingxu's hatred for her would not be much less, but unlike Qu Fengyan, she was more tolerant, and only looked up at her. The other party seemed to be in disbelief, "I haven't seen my sister since my concubine moved to the princess's mansion, why did my sister say such a thing?"

"Perhaps not, because you are not the real Qu Lingxu at all. The real Qu Lingxu followed Baili Haochen to Beili, intending to collude with foreign enemies and plot against our Great Xia Dynasty!"

I have to say that although Qu Fengyan is a bit stupid, she is not completely out of her mind. Everything behind this was deduced by her hard thinking and meditation these days. Although there are still some small deviations, it is not far from the truth. .

If this is the case, it is really bold, and everyone including the emperor is shocked. You must know that Qu Lingxu is already Leng Yuanxun's concubine, if she colludes with Baili Haochen...

Leng Yuanxun, could it be that he was cuckolded just after getting married?
"Slap!" Everyone was still in shock and didn't turn around, but heard a crisp slap on Qu Fengyan's face. The one who hit her was none other than Leng Yuanxun.

Although Leng Yuanxun hated Qu Fengyan very much, he never bothered to touch such a shameless woman with his own hands, and now he has made an exception, which shows how angry he is.
