Chapter 159 Never Forgive (3)
Hearing this, the emperor hated Ling Mengqi even more, but he also knew that Citron's words were justified, so he could only suppress his anger for the time being and order Gao Yuwang to pick up Ling Mengqi immediately. Now Ling Mengqi appeared in Chonghua Hall.

Seeing that the person kneeling on the ground looks very similar to Concubine Luo Gui, the emperor did not have any thoughts of loving the house, instead he was filled with gloom, because this person who resembled his beloved woman was not born to him , but the woman he loves was born with another man—this makes him feel so embarrassing for a man who was born with incomparable dignity, who is unscrupulous, and doesn't even want to put on clothes that others have touched?
But all of this can't be changed, even if he is the emperor, and he doesn't even have anyone to vent his anger on. Who told him to meet Concubine Luo after she got married and had a child? He couldn't blame fate , Who can blame?

"Do you know why I told you to come?" After staring at Ling Mengqi for a while, the emperor finally spoke quietly.

Ling Mengqi was stared at by the emperor for so long, yet he didn't feel any fear at all. Perhaps it was because although the emperor's status was higher than him and he could look down on him in everything, but his personality was lower than him. Much more, he can look down on him morally, just listen to his answer neither humble nor overbearing: "Thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the king, and the humble minister dare not waste the holy will."

When the emperor heard the words, he was speechless for a while, and after a while he said coldly: "You can talk, it's better that you can talk like that later, otherwise..." He strode away from the main hall.

It made Ling Mengqi feel a little at a loss, not understanding what the emperor meant, could it be that he was brought into the palace on purpose, not to kill him?But he didn't know, he wanted to see what kind of person the emperor was, worthy of being his mother who abandoned her husband and son, but the emperor also wanted to see what kind of person he was, and worthy of being his concubine. I don't care about the pair of children I had with her or even the fetus in my womb, all I can think about is him, a little bastard who was born with another man!
Not long after the emperor left, he was dressed in palace attire, much more gorgeous than that night at Longfu Temple, but also a lot haggard. Citron, whose eyes were bloodshot, came in. When he saw Ling Mengqi Then he said anxiously: "Brother, follow me to your empress' bedroom. Your empress is in a very bad condition. If you delay, I'm afraid that your empress will not be able to save her!"

Ling Mengqi couldn't come back to his senses, what is meant by 'my lady is in a very bad situation', how is that woman, didn't she do well in Longfu Temple that night, it's only been about ten days, how can she 'save her'? Not coming back'?
His first reaction was that this was Concubine Luo's trick to make him recognize her as his mother, and without thinking about it, he said in a cold voice: "The concubine is not well, and I will be treated by the imperial doctors. I am not a doctor. What am I here for? If there is nothing else to do, Aunt Lao Xiangyong will arrange for someone to send me out of the palace, so as not to offend some noble person by accident when I go out by myself, and everyone will lose face..."

Before he finished speaking, Citron hastily interrupted: "The imperial concubine is really bad, since the empress saw my brother back to the palace that night, thinking about the hardships my brother has suffered all these years, I feel sorry for him. , Said that she was a mother in vain, so she washed her face with tears day and night, and her grief was endless, and her fetus was inevitably moved. Since the seventh princess was injured eight years ago, the empress has never raised her baby. This baby came hard, so good It took only three months to stabilize a little bit, who knows...the imperial doctors tried their best, but they only saved a few more days for the empress, the empress still had a miscarriage the night before, and then she had a fever again , Now the empress is in a very bad situation, she has not woken up, she only yells my brother's name, the imperial doctor said that now maybe only brother can wake up the empress... I beg my brother to see that the empress gave birth to you In view of the fact that the empress had no choice but to save her life, I will kowtow to you..."

After finishing speaking, he really knelt down with a "plop", and kowtowed to Ling Mengqi like smashing garlic.

It was only then that Ling Mengqi truly understood the emperor's intention to have him brought into the palace. It was not to kill him, but to let him wake up that woman.

He didn't know what it was like, obviously he hated that woman very much, but why did he still feel uncomfortable when he heard that she was going to die?And the emperor, I'm afraid that he can't cut him into pieces. After all, the woman's miscarriage was indeed related to him, but he was able to resist killing him. It can be seen that the emperor's treatment of that woman is indeed true... But even if they are So what if you really love each other, you can't hurt others in the name of "true love". It’s not that if you like it, you must get it. If everyone is like this, the person you like must get what you like. It doesn’t matter whether that person’s thing is someone else’s or not. Then there are no rules and regulations in this world, isn’t it? Messed up already?

In particular, as the ruler of the world, the emperor should lead by example and set an example for all people in the world, but relying on his power to do whatever he wants, he is not afraid to spread the word and damage his holy name!
Ling Mengqi was silent for a moment, and then said to Citron in a cold voice: "Aunt Citron, you should get up, as I said just now, I am not a doctor, and I am not capable of waking up the imperial concubine, Aunt Citron should invite another one as soon as possible." Good job, Gao Ming, otherwise it will really delay the concubine's condition, but it will be terrible, I have to go back to the guard to work as an errand, so I won't accompany you, let me leave!"

Since he had already decided that he would always treat that woman as a stranger in the future, it would be best not to see each other until the end of the world, so there was no possibility of changing it, and it would save embarrassing each other in the future, not to mention that he was indeed not a doctor, even the imperial physicians He can't save her, what can he do?
But before he could take a step, Citron quickly knelt a few steps forward and hugged his leg, crying: "Brother, the imperial concubine is really bad, if there is anything the imperial doctors can do, I think I can't do it again." How could it be possible to appear here? Although the servants have not read any books, they also know the saying, "October births are more kind, and three lives are rewarded lightly." Could it be that my brother really has the heart to watch the imperial concubine and empress die? If this is the case, I will definitely regret it in the future... What's more, do I really think I can get out of the Chonghua Palace? The emperor has already told his brother since he learned that the dragon fetus in the womb of the empress was not saved the night before. My son was murderous, it was because the emperor was talking to his former father-in-law, Gao Gonggong, that the emperor temporarily spared my brother's life, and now the only way out is to wake up the empress, otherwise, if there is something wrong with the empress, my brother will undoubtedly die , Brother, don’t you understand that you have no way out now?”

What he said made Ling Mengqi finally no longer insist on leaving, but it was not because Citron said that the only way to survive is to wake up Concubine Luo. Although he didn't want to die, if someone really threatened him with his life He will never be afraid of death if he does what he does not want to do.
