Chapter 523
Then the emperor regretted it, hurried forward to help her up, half hugged her in his arms and said anxiously: "It's a pity that you are fine, I... I didn't mean it, I was just confused for a while, no Careful...you let me see, but where is it broken..."

The emperor forcibly turned Concubine Luo's face to look at it, and saw that Ruyu's face was red and swollen with a few finger prints clearly on it, and blood was oozing from the corner of her mouth. "Send to the Imperial Physician! Quickly pass on to the Imperial Physician!"

Concubine Luo broke free from his embrace, walked like a wandering soul to the door of the inner room, then turned to look at the emperor, holding back tears and said coldly: "The concubine has been with the emperor for 17 years, let alone the concubine. I got nails, and I rarely even said serious words to my concubine, but today I beat my concubine, it was because the emperor did something wrong to my concubine first, my concubine's heart is very confused now, please ask the emperor to go back and do it first Yuandian, or go to sit with other sisters and sisters, just don't stay here with Chenqie, let Chenqie live in peace, otherwise Chenqie is afraid that under the moment of grief and anger, he will do some violent behavior and become more and more serious. Hurt the already cracked relationship between each other, and I will never go back to the past in my lifetime!"

After finishing speaking, he didn't even look at the emperor anymore, and closed the door of the inner room heavily in front of the emperor.

The rest of the emperor, who was regretting and annoyed, looked at the two dark doors, thinking of Concubine Luo's cold eyes and cold words just now, he couldn't believe it at first, and then became so angry that he couldn't add more, stepped forward and kicked the door. On the door of the inner room: "Don't say that I didn't do the thing, even if I did, so what, you have disregarded the relationship with me for so many years for the sake of such a bastard, I really gave you my heart in vain It's been so many years since I took out my lungs, even if it's a stone, after so many years, I should warm it up, you really disappoint me, and you really chill me!" Then he walked away angrily.

——So far, the misunderstanding between the two is getting deeper and deeper, and the rift between the two people who were originally close is also getting bigger and bigger. Just like Luo Guifei said, it is true that there is no going back to the past.

Apart from Gao Yuwang and Citron, even the other servants of Qianyuan Hall and Chonghua Hall didn't know about the conflict between the emperor and Concubine Luo, and people outside the palace, such as Dingguo's mansion and Ling Mengqi, naturally didn't know about it. Clear.

The Dingguo Duke's family only knew that Ling Mengqi had been promoted twice in just over two months, and now he was one of the most famous figures in Jin Yiwei. After the news spread to the inner courtyard, all the female relatives congratulated Lu Mingxuan one after another. Second Mistress even smiled enviously and said: "Such a big happy event, although it is not easy to put on wine and sing big banquets, our family should celebrate it. It depends on whether Sister Xuan is willing to do this." Are you in the East?"

Who would have thought that Ling Mengqi, who is equivalent to being exiled by the family, and now that the family has not been settled in a dilapidated household, his official luck would be so good. The key is that he is still in his twenties, and he is already a middle-level and high-ranking fourth-rank I'm an official, maybe there will be great fortunes in the future, Lu Mingxuan is very lucky, as soon as she passes through the door, she will be the wife of the fourth rank, even the girls of the Duke's mansion may not have such a blessing, she is really a "side branch" Take all the face and face!
Lu Mingxuan blushed, and spat at Second Grandma Lu: "Second sister-in-law's words are so unreasonable, it's not that I got promoted and made a fortune, so why should I be the host?"

Second Grandma Lu smiled and said, "Even though Brother Ling was the one who got promoted and made a fortune, it means that Sister Xuan got promoted and made a fortune. Could it be that Sister Xuan shouldn't be the host? Isn't that right?"

Duan's family and Grandma Lu both smiled and echoed: "That's very true, Miss Xuan (sister Xuan) really should be the host."

Only Lu Mingxin kept his head down and didn't say a word, and didn't know what he was thinking.

Seeing that Lu Mingxuan's face was blushing enough to bleed, Mrs. Lu hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't bully girl Xuan, although she should be the host of this matter, but it's not right now, so let's do that , I will pay 50 taels of silver to do this for her. Daughter-in-law of Brother Ting, you can find your grandma Zhang to lock up the money later, and it will be easy to clean up a table tomorrow, and then call the two daughters. Have a good day girls."

Grandma Lu quickly responded with a smile, and everyone chatted and laughed again, and then they dispersed.

Lu Mingxuan returned to the Kongcui Pavilion, and as soon as she retreated from the servants, the smile on her face was replaced by seriousness. She frowned and pondered. The emperor suddenly promoted Ling Mengqi's official position. What does this mean? Could it be Concubine Luo? Knowing that Ling Mengqi was almost killed by King Ning, is he making compensation in disguise?Doesn't that mean that the emperor also knows about it?Otherwise, Ling Mengqi would not be able to be a four-rank co-knowledgeer.

In this way, her original intention was achieved. Not only did Concubine Luo teach King Ning a lesson, but also caused a rift between their mother and son. In a short time, he dared not harm Ling Mengqi again.

However, it can also be seen from this that Concubine Luo Gui is really important in the emperor's mind, which means that Prince Ning is definitely the crown prince. Ling Mengqi's fate is only a matter of time, what will they do then?King Ning doesn't care about Concubine Luo's feelings like the emperor does.

So the only thing they can do now is to delay as much as possible so that King Ning will be established as the crown prince later, and during this period, try to create opportunities for King Duan to become a high-ranking prince. Prince Chu, I want to tell Heaven and Earth and the Ancestral Temple that King Ning will be orthodox in terms of morality and public opinion. If King Duan wants to take the throne again, this one thing alone will be called injustice. Well, when the time comes, King Duan will be lucky enough to be in the position, and I'm afraid he will be notorious for a long time, not to mention that he may not be able to be in the position yet.

Lu Mingxuan remembered the laws she had concluded from studying history in the past, and couldn't help but frown even more. Even if King Duan could use the title of "Side of the Qing Emperor" to rebel against King Ning, would Ling Mengqi survive until then?And the most crucial point, I don't know if Ling Mengqi has had a deeper relationship with Duan Wang now?

Thoughts flashed by, Lu Mingxuan couldn't sit still, she raised her voice and called Danbi to come in, and ordered in a low voice: "You go out to see Young Master, please come over at night, I have something important to tell him."

Danbi hurriedly bowed her knees to agree, stepped back and changed her clothes, while Lu Mingxuan continued to meditate.

At nightfall and the second watch, Ling Mengqi came, smelling of alcohol all over his body. Lu Mingxuan remembered that he had just recovered from a serious illness, so she couldn't help frowning and said angrily, "Why do you drink so much wine? You're not afraid of hurting your body!" The door opened in front of the door, and whispered to Danqing Danbi to fetch hot water, sober up stones, and make strong tea, but he didn't dare to make sober up soup, for fear that it would be suspicious at night.

Ling Mengqi held the sober stone in his mouth and watched her busy with himself with a smile on his lips. He didn't know how much it would benefit him. After washing his face and drinking strong tea, he felt a lot more comfortable, and then said softly: "You Tell me something important? Did you encounter any trouble today? "
