Palace scheming: Empress Leng Palace

Chapter 408

"What are you looking at, Lian'er?" Following Lian'er's gaze, Li Qingdai saw that they were just passers-by on the street, and there was no one in particular, or was she missing something?
But Lian'er in front of her was still dazed, she just stood there dazedly, a layer of water was inexplicably reflected in her beautiful eyes, she seemed to be stupid, and she didn't answer any more.


A very familiar figure, a very familiar feeling, as if I had been deeply reflected in my heart a long time ago; and as if, it was the man who often appeared in her dreams...

The same handsome and elegant, the same white clothes, the same, only the indifferent glance that made her cold and sad.


Who is he?Who is he?
Why is her heart so sore just from such a casual silhouette?

"Lian'er, what's wrong with you, don't scare me!" Li Qingdai called her no answer a few times, she couldn't help but panicked, and hurried forward to pull her body to shake gently, but except for touching such an ice-like Outside the human body, there is no way to wake up the stunned person.


A line of warm tears fell quietly, the warm wetness awakened Lian Er's infatuation, and frightened Li Qingdai who was beside her.

"Come on, come in quickly." She couldn't help calling the servants outside the door to help, but she saw that Lian Er had already blinked her beautiful eyes lightly, with a faint smile on her delicate face, she raised her sleeves to wipe her face. To shed tears, she whispered: "I'm fine, Qingdai, I'm really fine.".


She was fine, but the heartache at that moment was so profound that it seemed like a long time had passed in such a short time.

Really, I really don't like the feeling of heartache.It seems, too tired...

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The weather is gradually warming up, and the time has come to February [-]th, which is the time when the grass is flying and the catkins are blooming.

Ever since the emperor sent people to search for the unicorn blood in the ice pond for Prince Rui, the weather in Prince Rui's mansion has finally broken away from the coldness of the past, and the servants have gradually grown a lot of hope, hoping that the brave man sent by the palace will A talented person can bring a piece of good news to the prince.


Today is the day when the daughter of the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs gets married, and all the officials in the court, big and small, have received invitations from Lord Shangshu, and even the current emperor sent people to send congratulatory gifts.

And other officials went to the banquet one after another, rushing to attend the wedding ceremony between the second young lady of the Li family, Li Qingdai, and the well-known Mr. Qin Yin in the world.


At dusk, Xu Qian, the housekeeper of Prince Rui's residence, had ordered someone to prepare a big gift, and drove to Li Shangshu's residence together with the prince's carriage.

In the car, Xuanyuan Yi, who was closing his eyes and resting his mind, originally didn't intend to go to Yan in person, but Li Qinglan, who had no choice but to have a good friendship with him in court, insisted on inviting him to the banquet several times, but he couldn't make the excuse, so he agreed lightly.


Recently, his attacks have become more and more frequent, from twice a month to three or four times a month, and now, almost once every three days.

Such a situation made it almost impossible for him to go to court. He once wanted to ask the emperor to resign, but every time the words came to his lips, he quietly gave up.


With his current status and identity, if he resigns easily without a good excuse, the people in the world will be suspicious.What's more, he didn't want Yun Qing to know about his condition, which would make her worry.


Thinking of the meeting with the emperor's brother in the palace that day, he couldn't help but tighten his palms.

He didn't know why, but in the heart of the emperor, Yun Qing's position was also so important.Now that I am retiring due to illness, maybe it is also a rare time for myself and him to see Yun Qing again.


However, if it was just a one-time meeting, if she knew that her condition was so serious, how would she be willing to go back to the land of Chu Ting safely, and how would she be willing to let go of her insistence on finding medicine for herself?

Back then, her persistence made him deeply engraved; now that her illness has made new progress, she is even more unwilling to give up lightly, and must go to that dangerous place to seek a miracle medicine for herself.


Alas, Yun Qing, how could he be willing to let her suffer a little bit of hurt because of him?

Even though he was getting more and more lazy in the court, even though the court gradually expressed dissatisfaction with him, the prince, but he insisted on not opening his mouth, not wanting that woman far away from the world to be involved in his tiring illness.


"Prince Rui is here!" A bustling sound was heard outside the carriage, followed by a screeching stop of the carriage, and a prolonged salute came from Shang Shu's mansion, followed by the curtain of Xuanyuan Yi's carriage being raised by the servants, Xuan Ming said lightly: "My lord, we're here!".

Opening his eyes lightly, he looked at the beautiful and prosperous scene outside the car, and the scene when he saw Yun Qing again in the first month of last year appeared in front of his eyes.


On the night of Che'er's first birthday, in that beautiful and delightful land outside the world, the beautifully built Zeyun Residence was also beautiful, and there was such joy everywhere, but because of that beautiful woman, the world was overwhelmed. Filled with a pleasant fragrance of pear blossom...


"Welcome to the prince, the prince is a thousand years old!" The guests in front of the mansion saluted one after another, and the officials who came from all walks of life also saluted to them with smiles, and then under Xuanyuan Yi's light sleeves, everyone came along Zhong Nianlou and Lan Tianyu walked into the mansion together.


"I heard that the lord has been ill recently, has he been better?" The person who asked the question was Zhong Nianlou. During the time when Tianque changed hands, they had been on the front line with each other, so their relationship was naturally closer than others.

It's just that Xuanyuan Yi's illness is a royal secret, and it's inconvenient to tell outsiders, so few people in the court know about it.


"Hehe, it's just an old chronic disease, good and bad, not definite!" Smiling casually, Xuanyuan Yi is a person who doesn't like to chat with others; although Zhong Nianlou is relatively close to him, he has such a personality after all, so Just said a few words casually, and the two of them had no topic to talk about.


When we came to the hall, all the guests had already arrived, not far from the seats, so most of the people gathered here.

Xuanyuan Yi just felt bored, but he couldn't feel any joy when he saw this happy scene.

Perhaps, this was because it was the first time in his life that he had seen such a wedding ceremony.


Even on the day of the big wedding between the emperor's brother and Yun Qing, he stayed alone in Qingfeng Palace because of his loneliness and didn't go anywhere.

Now that I think about it, maybe I met Yun Qing at that time, so the relationship between him and her should be another kind of acquaintance.
