Qin Lingyu's fingers are similar to Gu Haoran's, long and strong, with rough calluses on the fingertips, it looks like the hands of a long-term martial arts practitioner.

Linghuchen was touched by him, subconsciously raised his head backwards.

Qin Lingyu didn't seem to notice it, he withdrew his hand, looked down at the darkened blood on it, suddenly put his finger in front of his mouth, and even stuck out his tongue to lick it lightly.

The 16-year-old young man is already quite tall, handsome and charming, coupled with his noble background, he doesn't know how many men and women will willingly fall into his arms even now, regardless of the future.

Seeing him making this almost ambiguous action, Linghuchen couldn't help swallowing his saliva not obviously.

"It's really blood." Qin Lingyu looked up at Linghuchen, frowned slightly and asked, "Queen, who hurt you?"

Linghuchen was awakened by the sound of "mother queen"!

He knew that his current appearance was a bit funny, but being alone in such an empty space with two corpses, he would also feel chills on his back.

And the blood on the lips...

When I was kissed and bitten by Gu Haoran just now, I really felt that he was rude and ignorant, and it still hurt a little, but I didn't expect to leave such obvious marks.

Linghuchen couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed when he met Qin Lingyu's gaze.

After a while, he finally opened his mouth and said, "I accidentally bit it myself."

Qin Lingyu really didn't believe it, and asked with a frown, "Mother, why did you bite your lip?"

Linghuchen blinked, thought for a while, and then said with a serious face: "You are not here tonight, I dare not touch dinner, I accidentally bit you while suppressing hunger."

This lie was so untechnical, Linghuchen felt uneasy, he could only hope to deceive this 16-year-old youth who was full of admiration for him.

Qin Lingyu really showed a smile, reached into his arms and took out a box and handed it to Linghuchen: "This is the snack I brought from me, mother, eat it quickly."

Linghuchen reached out and took the dessert box, the cakes made for the prince in the palace were very delicious.He ate a few pieces to relieve his hunger, but when he looked up, he saw Qin Lingyu who had pulled a chair and sat opposite him, happily watching him eat.

That look, it seems that he is happy to eat, and he is also happy.

Linghuchen felt a little guilty, just now he and Gu Haoran had such a deadlock, it is estimated that the other party will not stand by their side anymore.

But he is not willing to make him make a huge sacrifice on the premise that he may sacrifice his life for this son who has only known him for a day.

The hall seemed to become a little dull for a while.

Seeing Linghuchen finished eating the snacks, Qin Lingyu seemed to be relieved, and said: "From now on, the things that are not brought by the ministers, the queen mother must not eat them."

As he spoke, he took another deep look at Linghu Chen's bitten lip.

Linghuchen let out a "huh" and noticed Qin Lingyu's gaze, and then realized how stupid he had lied before, and what's more, it was a lie that lowered his IQ.

Looking at Qin Lingyu's eyes, he is clearly worried that he will be so hungry that he will bite his lip next time!

Before he could finish his thoughts, the nearly perfect face of the young man in front of him suddenly enlarged in front of his eyes, and then his lips became warm, and Qin Lingyu leaned over generously, sticking out his tongue and licking his lips.

For those who have just eaten sweet-scented osmanthus jujube cake, there is still a faint sweet taste on it.Qin Lingyu left Linghuchen's lips a little, and suddenly laughed more ambiguously in a low voice: "Mother's lips are so sweet!"

Yourself!

It was given by a 16-year-old boy again!

Molested!

Linghuchen couldn't help but took a deep look at Qin Lingyu.

Looking at him, you will feel that the early physical education of the nobles of the Great Qin Dynasty is extremely mature!

But thinking of that Gu Haoran just now, he will feel deeply sad for their education again!

Qin Lingyu was naturally unaware of the meaning of his eyes.

That night, he really didn't ask any more about the tooth marks on Linghuchen's lips, as if he had acquiesced to his statement.After instructing him, he personally checked the situation in the next four weeks, and then reluctantly went back to the palace where he lived.

Although he said he wanted to stay overnight during the day, he was the prince after all, even if he and Linghuchen were mother and son in name, it was only in name!

After all, he was not born by Linghu Chen, even if he was born, if the prince brazenly stays in the queen's palace, it is afraid that in this palace where nothing is impossible, it will cause countless gossip.

That night, I don't know if Qin Lingyu's investigation played a role, or Gu Haoran stepped up his vigilance after leaving, or the content of the Gongdou gift bag bought by the imperial concubine just ran out, anyway, there was no danger or danger that night. Outrageous thing.

Linghuchen was wrapped in a quilt and curled up on the chair in a daze for a while. He was still trying to seriously distance himself from what happened today, but after thinking about it, he fell asleep unknowingly.

When he woke up, he found that he was already lying on the bed.

Linghu Chen sat up from the bed in a jerk, the quilt covering his body was well covered, and the clothes he was wearing when he fell asleep were also the same.

Looking at the bottom of the bed, the two men in black were taken away at some point.

Before the maid in the palace came to help him get up, Qin Lingyu brought someone to deliver breakfast himself.

In the next few days, I don't know if it was because the emperor's condition worsened, or the imperial concubine really didn't buy a new Gongdou gift bag for the time being, Linghuchen lived a fairly peaceful life.

Qin Lingyu seems to be very busy every day. Although he is only 16 years old, he is the prince of Qin after all. The emperor is seriously ill. Even if the imperial power falls, there are still many places that need a prince.

It's just that no matter how busy he is, he will definitely come to accompany Linghu Chen for three meals a day.

In the next ten days, Linghuchen got a lot of useful information from Qin Lingyu intermittently.

At least he knew that His Majesty Huidi, the current Emperor of Qin, is only 40 years old this year and has been in power for 22 years.As for him, Linghu Chen, he married eight years ago, the only empress in his emperor career.

Before Linghuchen entered the palace, the position of Empress of Qin State was vacant, and the concubines in the harem competed for beauty, and often fought to the death.

But after Linghuchen entered the palace, the concubines probably felt that the one sitting on the queen's throne was a man who would not have children anyway, and would not pose any real threat to them.So Gong Dou's focus suddenly shifted from "how to sit on the queen's throne" to "how to give birth to an heir to the throne".

Huidi's health gradually began to deteriorate more than a year ago, and he has basically been bedridden for more than half a year.Fortunately, when he was young, he made a lot of achievements in the government, appointed virtuous ministers, and rectified the court, so even if he fell ill, Qin still developed in an orderly manner.

But no matter how talented a person is, he can't hold a high position for a long time, holding the power of the government and government, and power will always breed the ambition of some people.

So Prime Minister Jiang Zimo gradually changed!

He is no longer the conscientious and conscientious noble boy who was just admitted to the first prize.Since his sister entered the palace as a concubine and gave birth to a son for the emperor, he became more and more ambitious.

When the emperor was in good health, even though the Jiang family was not very satisfied with the fact that Qin Lingyu, the eldest son raised by the empress, was the crown prince, they could only endure it silently.

But as soon as the emperor fell ill, it almost gave them a signal of "ready to usurp power", and Jiang Zimo immediately became active.If they hadn't been concerned about the power of the Gu family, they might have dared to pull the prince down a long time ago.

There are many capable people in Emperor Hui's dynasty, but they are basically divided into three parties.

Princelings.

Prime Minister Party.

neutral party.

The leader of the neutral party is naturally Gu Haoran who holds the military power.

After several days of side-talking, Linghuchen finally sorted out these relationships.He originally thought it was such a complicated situation, but looking at it this way, it was nothing more than an ordinary political struggle, plus the drama of Gongdou.

It's just related to the succession of the throne. Every time he remembers such a time in history, there will inevitably be a bloodbath!

Linghuchen and Emperor Hui had very little contact time, but he still remembered the way the other party looked at him.

He couldn't help feeling a little emotional, everyone said that the emperor was so fickle, and there were countless concubines in Emperor Hui's harem, and there were a lot of beautiful beauties at hand.He didn't really believe that the other party would really have something for him, and he even seriously considered that the original owner of this body might have some powerful background.

But he probably really thought wrong, did not expect that this Emperor Hui seemed to be a relatively rare infatuated person among the emperors.

Of course, no matter how infatuated the emperor is, it is impossible for him to guard his body like a jade just for a certain person, especially if that person is a man.

Does he still want the heir? !

The so-called emperor's harem was used to balance the forces of the previous dynasty. This is also an undeniable truth for thousands of years.

In addition, Linghuchen also knew an important thing, that is, the original owner of this body was not only the number one talented person in Great Qin, but also the youngest son of the richest family in Qin.

Coincidentally, that family's family name was also changed to Linghu, and the original name of this body was Linghuchen.

The morning is as bright as the morning star.

It's really...fate.

For more information about himself, Linghuchen did not dare to ask too many details, for fear that asking too much would arouse Qin Lingyu's suspicion.Moreover, he was very suspicious of this young man, and he didn't know much about his original affairs.

For example, Qin Lingyu must not be able to blurt out such explosive, informative, useful, words like Gu Haoran.

Although Qin Lingyu was wondering why his mother's queen was suddenly so interested in government affairs, she still knew everything without saying a word. After all, they were now a revolutionary alliance standing on the same front.

Ten days later, Qinghu Pavilion.

Qinghu Pavilion is the remote palace where Linghuchen lives temporarily, close to the corner of the imperial palace.It looks very much like a cold palace here, but in fact it is almost like a cold palace.

It was autumn at this time, and all kinds of chrysanthemums were already in full bloom in other palaces, and exotic flowers and herbs could be seen everywhere.In Qinghu Pavilion, it seems that winter has arrived ahead of schedule, and it is in a state of decay everywhere.

Linghuchen didn't care about this either. He was sitting in the main hall of Qinghu Pavilion with a lot of books spread out on the table.Many of them are about the history and customs of the Qin State. These were all kept by the original owner of the body in the queen's bedroom, and Linghuchen just moved them here.

In the past few days, apart from meeting and chatting with Qin Lingyu, he was mostly studying these books.

Now he can basically confirm that this is indeed a completely empty era, and has nothing to do with Qin Shihuang and Qin II.

As for the history and customs, Linghuchen felt that it was necessary for him to understand.After all, the original owner of this body was the number one talented person in the Qin Kingdom. Linghuchen didn't know what the number one talented person here would know, but thinking of those famous talents he had played, at least playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting was a must. I will.

He had learned some of these things for acting in the past, but he could only pretend. In ancient times, it was definitely not enough to pretend to be a genius.

The only thing that might be better is calligraphy, which he practiced seriously for seven or eight years when he was a child. Although he is not a famous artist, his brush calligraphy is quite beautiful and can be seen by others.

As a qualified and dedicated actor, it is absolutely necessary to act like what you want.

So even though he knew that it might be a bit disturbing to the people, Linghuchen still brought the guqin from the queen's bedroom and fiddled with it every day when he had nothing to do, but it was a pity that the music was always out of tune.

As for painting, he didn't dare to think about it. After all, it takes years of basic skills, and it's not easy to practice well.

the most important is--

He doesn't have a good teacher to teach him!

So under the balance, Linghuchen said that the only thing he can do well is to read more books, read good books, and expand his knowledge as much as possible!

The ten days passed quickly like this, and the days without being framed by the imperial concubine seemed not so boring.I originally thought that without high-tech products such as computers and TVs, modern people would be very uncomfortable.But under the threat of not knowing whether he can save his life, Linghuchen didn't feel how difficult it was.

The only thing that disappointed him was that the original Linghuchen didn't seem to have a good habit of keeping a diary.He rummaged through the classics in the Queen's Palace, but he didn't find anything that looked like a diary. There were only a dozen poems that looked like they were written when he was bored.

Linghuchen wasn't very interested in those, but he still recited them seriously.

=================================================

Ten days later, Linghuchen was summoned by Emperor Hui again.

Originally, even when the emperor was in a coma, as a queen, he should serve the decoction every day.But after the fire in the side hall of the queen's palace, the imperial concubine deprived him of the right to see the emperor on the grounds that the queen was frightened and needed to rest.

This time, it was the emperor himself who sent someone to pick him up.

The emperor's bedroom was still solemn and solemn, except for a few servants who served him, no one else was there.

It's just that Emperor Hui's physical condition seems to be worse than ten days ago.

Linghuchen also felt a little sad, after all, the man lying here seemed to be really infatuated with the original owner of this body.

It's a pity that now, the emperor is still struggling to live with his sick body, but the person he likes has been separated from him forever.

"Zi Tong." Emperor Hui seemed very happy to see Linghu Chen coming. He forced the corners of his lips up, stretched out a skinny hand, and pressed it lightly on the back of his hand. It also became a little clearer.

He looked Linghuchen up and down for a moment, then suddenly sighed and said, "I've wronged you, Zitong."

Linghuchen didn't speak.

"I know that for so many years, Qing has been dissatisfied with me forcibly letting you into the palace. Back then, I really shouldn't have threatened you with your family! It's just that I thought that I could give you glory, wealth, respect and status. I will protect you for the rest of my life, but I don't want you to suffer all kinds of wrongs in the end..." Huidi said, his eyes were a little red.

Linghuchen still didn't speak, but he felt a little uneasy.

It is said that when a person is about to die, his words are also good.

The last time we met, His Majesty the Emperor was affectionately supporting Gu.

This time, he resolutely began to change to a bitter drama.

He even began to repent of his past actions...

Then I heard Emperor Hui continue to say: "I let the crown prince serve at your knees, so that Qing can rely on me after a hundred years. I don't want Qing to be depressed all the time in the palace, even if the crown prince Cheng Huan is at your knees, I can't be happy either. In fact, I forced Qing to enter the palace, and it is only natural that Qing would be dissatisfied with me. But because Qing has always refused to show me a smile, I have been ignoring Qing and letting Qing be bullied in the palace , and never took the initiative to stand up for Qing." Emperor Hui had tears in his eyes when he said this.He held Linghu Chen's hand a little harder, looked at Linghu Chen and said sincerely: "Qing must hate me to death, right?"

Linghuchen blinked his eyes, His Majesty asked this question, but looked at him with hopeful eyes, as if he hoped that Linghuchen could say that he didn't hate him.

No wonder the Emperor was so moved when he voluntarily shed tears in order to perform an affectionate scene that day.

But... he can't decide whether to forgive or not.

Emperor Hui couldn't wait for Linghuchen's response for a long time, and his eyes gradually dimmed: "I also know that Qing will definitely not forgive me. To see the tears Qing left for me, I have nothing else to ask for in this life. Even if It is for Qing, no matter how broken this body is, I will try my best to live longer, so that the prince can be more mature and responsible, and also enable him to protect Qing well."

Linghuchen couldn't help being a little moved. As an emperor, it was really not easy to say such words.

Emperor Hui said again: "In the future, I'm afraid Qing will be wronged..."

After Emperor Hui finished speaking, he closed his eyes tiredly, took a few deep breaths, and said again: "Qing stay here for dinner before going back, I am also happy to see."

"Your Majesty..." Linghu Chen called softly, his face was full of sadness, but his heart was full of alarm bells.

His Majesty the Emperor, Du, personally called him to the bedroom, and even wanted to watch him eat in person. Could it be... that the imperial concubine's new offensive is about to start?

Linghuchen thought of Concubine Jiang's attack that was even more fierce than a wave...

Really!

Stomach pain!

Under the cordial and intimate gaze of the emperor, he finished his meal with some indifference, and when he was carried back to Qinghu Pavilion, Qin Lingyu was already waiting for him there.

"Mother, where have you been?" Seeing him coming in, Qin Lingyu immediately greeted him, and said to Linghuchen: "I am very worried that I won't see my mother here."

"I'm going to see your father." Linghu Chen said earnestly.

"Father?" Qin Lingyu frowned, carefully looked at Linghu Chen's face for a moment, and then said: "The mother's face is so pale, what did father say to you?"

Qin Lingyu shook his head, he just thought of the imperial concubine's big gift package, and his stomach hurts a bit.

"Mother's queen..." Qin Lingyu frowned even tighter, and said after a while: "Father's health is getting worse day by day, and the party of Prime Minister Jiang Zhongjiang is becoming more and more unscrupulous. The children and ministers cannot always stay by Mother's side. Take good care of yourself."

Linghuchen let out a "hmm".

He suddenly felt that this really couldn't go on like this.

Indulging the imperial concubine in such arrogance is really disgusting.The last time she was just poisoning the fire-fighting assassins, this time, I don't know what kind of excessive things she will do.

Linghuchen began to seriously recall, in the TV shows he had seen and acted on, what method should be used to deal with a concubine like Concubine Jiang with a hard backstage.

But after much deliberation, it seems that they are all supported by the emperor, or the emperor tried to find a way to get rid of the power behind the imperial concubine first, and then took advantage of the situation to bring her down.

At worst, there is also a queen mother to help.

correct!

Queen Mother!

Linghuchen's eyes suddenly lit up, how could he forget such a powerful weapon! ?

Something is wrong, Linghuchen suddenly thought, if the Queen Mother is really there and Emperor Hui is sick, how could she not show up.Now he couldn't directly ask Qin Lingyu if he had a queen mother, and he could also say that he didn't understand the situation in the court.When he directly asked if there was a queen mother in the palace, Qin Lingyu must have thought that he had developed dementia in advance.

So besides the Queen Mother, who else can I count on?

The birth mother of the prince?

No way, if such a No. [-] person really existed, Qin Lingyu would not just sit back and watch the Chaozhongjiang family become dominant.

And from what Qin Lingyu had said in the past, the crown prince's biological mother didn't seem to have a high status, so her natal family's influence should be mediocre.

Then... the Linghu family?

Linghuchen quickly vetoed it again, if the Linghu family was really reliable, they wouldn't let the queen be bullied like this in the palace.

He walked around the hall a few times impatiently, and after thinking about it, he really didn't have anyone to rely on.

Could it be that he really can only try to win over that Gu Haoran?

But thinking of Gu Haoran, not only his stomach hurts, but even the chrysanthemum hurts.

Qin Lingyu kept watching him quietly, probably knowing that Linghuchen was thinking about something, so he didn't interrupt him. He just sat beside him for a while, then took out a piece of paper from his pocket and read it carefully.

When Linghuchen reached the fifth lap, he finally saw Qin Lingyu's movements, he couldn't help but walked to his side, lowered his head to look at the piece of paper he was holding, and asked, "What are you looking at? "

There were more than a dozen names written on the paper, all of which were unfamiliar names that Linghuchen didn't know.Qin Lingyu didn't hide anything from him, and explained: "This is the list of generals in the capital army that may be recruited by the Taifu. But..." He sighed at this point, and said: "The army has always supported Gu Haoran, I'm afraid we have tried our best to win them over, and when Gu Haoran makes a choice, they will follow behind him. Maybe the win is for nothing."

Hearing this, Linghuchen couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

Originally, Gu Haoran didn't seem to be someone he couldn't win over.But it seems that after being scolded by him that day, the other party never showed up again. I don't know if he became angry from embarrassment and chose Jiang Zimo and the others in a fit of anger.

"Gu Haoran..." Linghuchen thought about his words, and asked, "Have you already made a statement?"

"That's not true." Qin Lingyu shook his head, put the paper back into his arms, raised his head and smiled at Linghu Chen: "The queen mother doesn't have to worry about these things, the minister will take care of it, and the minister will also protect the queen mother." .”

Linghuchen laughed twice "hehe".

Qin Lingyu was only 16 years old, Linghuchen couldn't help feeling guilty for letting a 16-year-old boy say such things to him.

He didn't spend much time with this son in name, but perhaps because Qin Lingyu always had a look of complete trust in front of him, he unknowingly let go of his guard in front of this 16-year-old boy. It seems a lot more natural to get along with each other.

Qin Lingyu didn't continue this topic, but casually flipped through the book Linghuchen spread out on the table.

He knew that Linghuchen had been looking at these things all this time, and that he was going in and out of Qinghu Pavilion these days, and Linghuchen would not avoid him when doing these things...

Qin Lingyu knew that he had gradually begun to gain Linghuchen's trust.

Linghuchen walked back and forth a few more times, the next wave of offensive by the noble concubine would suddenly start.This matter cannot be allowed to continue repeatedly until the concubine really kills herself.

But what should be done?

He narrowed his eyes and returned to his previous train of thought.

Why don't you just take the bottom line, and he will also fight against the palace, and also poison the fire-proof assassins, turn passive into active, take the initiative, and hit the imperial concubine hard once?

But where did he find poison, assassins, and so many court ladies who were willing to listen to him?

Linghuchen felt that it was really a headache, it's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice!

At this moment, Qin Lingyu picked up a book strangely, stretched out his hand and flipped through the pages, then turned to look at Linghuchen and said, "Mother, there seems to be a layer in this book."

Mezzanine? !

Linghu Chen's eyes lit up, these books should have been brought into the palace directly from Linghu's house.The Linghu family is the most wealthy in the world. Will there be a huge amount of money in the middle of this book?

Although money is not everything, but for him who is quite helpless now, having a huge amount of wealth in his hands is much better than having no money.

So he immediately walked to the table and said decisively: "Really? Let's take it apart and have a look!"

After speaking, he immediately took the initiative to take the book in Qin Lingyu's hand that looked like it had been laminated, and opened it without any distress.

Sure enough, there are interlayers in the thick pages of the book, but it is not the huge amount of money, gold or land deeds that Linghuchen imagined.

It's a love letter!

One love letter after another!

In addition to this book, they also found books that basically had mezzanines.It's just that when the interlayer of each book is taken apart, there are love letters inside without exception!

In the end, they unpacked a total of 99 love letters!

What Linghuchen thought for a long time might contain the original private information of the owner of the body, and it was spread out in front of himself and Qin Lingyu like this.
