half year later.

Recently, Wang Lianhua always stays in Happy City, firstly, he wants to spend more time with his mother, secondly, after the disbandment of the Wulin League, only one ghost palace is not enough for him to use, and he has a lot of spare time.

Bai Feifei understands Wang Lianhua, he is not a person who is willing to be idle, if one day he is too idle to panic, maybe he will do something earth-shattering.That way, she doesn't have any objections, but bloody storms are inevitable in the Jianghu, and there may be dangers to her life, so forget it.Speaking of which, she has done enough as the lord of Happy City, being busy can't alleviate her inner thoughts, so why bother to make things difficult for herself.It's better to give it to Wang Lianhua, I believe this is a good thing for him and Happy City.

Soon after, Bai Feifei gave up the position of city lord to Wang Lianhua, but Wang Lianhua accepted it.Bai Feifei, who is free, reads books, plays the piano, and plays chess every day, and has a very leisurely life.

It was early spring, but it was still chilly, and the house was still burning with charcoal.Because the defense of Happy City is very tight, everyone can rest assured that they will not barge in the door again.At night, there will be a special person to check on the charcoal fire regularly so that it will not go out.

One day, probably because the girls were dozing off, the charcoal fire in Bai Feifei's room was left unattended and went out in the middle of the night.She was originally weak and hadn't recovered yet, but she contracted the wind-cold after catching a cold, and her high fever persisted, which was quite serious.

When Bai Feifei was sick, Hong Ling and Wang Lianhua took turns to take care of her. She would sleep more soundly if someone was watching over her.

Tonight, it was supposed to be Hong Ling's vigil. Unexpectedly, when Bai Feifei woke up in a daze, what he saw was a strange scene.It was a dark stone room, and she was lying on a wooden bed covered with quilts, her clothes intact.However, she was weak all over, and knew in her heart that she must have been robbed by someone.

That's right, someone did not know how to sneak into Happy City, took advantage of Hong Ling's surprise and knocked her out, and secretly took Bai Feifei out of Happy City.At this time, Happy City was already in chaos.

The iron door was suddenly opened.

"Bai Feifei, I didn't expect you to have today, right?" The familiar voice was accompanied by a tricky tone.The figure of the visitor turned from darkness to light, and it turned out to be Leng Er who had been missing for many days.

Although Bai Feifei was surprised, his pale face remained calm: "Second Master Leng is really good at it, so stop talking nonsense, what do you want?"

Leng Er didn't beat around the bush: "Mr. Leng was able to escape your pursuit thanks to the help of an expert. Today, I will take back everything you stole from me!" He bent down and approached Bai Feifei, and said viciously , "I want to take care of Chao Chan!"

Bai Feifei sneered and said, "You think highly of me, Bai Feifei. If I'm really that important to Gu Xichao, then if he becomes the emperor, I should also be the queen. But now, it's true that he sits high in the temple, but I'm still She's a quack. I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you."

Leng Er made two hey and hey voices, and said: "Bai Feifei thinks he can deceive me by doing this?" He swung his sleeves behind his back, "If Gu Xichao is ruthless to you, why is there not even half a concubine in the harem now? Forget about the queen!"

"How do I know this?" Bai Feifei turned his head away, she actually knew, Leng Er is not stupid, he won't be easily fooled.

"Okay, whether Bai Feifei can exchange you for the throne depends on Gu Xichao, you can just stay here." After Leng Er finished speaking, he strode out.

Bai Feifei never thought that one day he would be in the same position as Xi Honglei from half a year ago.Could this be the retribution for kidnapping Xi Honglei?Fortunately, Gu Xichao is not alone, his uncle and Lianhua will help him.With the ingenuity of the three of them, they will definitely not be as passive as Qi Shaoshang who is isolated and helpless.

For the next hour, Bai Feifei kept thinking about how they would solve it, and she refused to stop because she didn't want to have expectations, hoping that Gu Xichao would trade Jiangshan for her.In the face of love, people are all the same, and they all desire to be the most important thing in the lover's heart.Therefore, Bai Feifei tried his best to pin all his hopes on an unknown method that could achieve the best of both worlds.She didn't dare to imagine, if there was no such way, no matter whether Gu Xichao changed or not, it would be a result she couldn't bear.

When the iron door opened again, a person dressed as a maid came in, holding a bowl of medicine in her hand.

"Miss Bai, drink your medicine." She was very polite and a little timid.Maybe it was Leng Er who caught him temporarily.

"Medicine?" Bai Feifei looked suspiciously at the bowl in the maid's hand.

"Girl, don't misunderstand. The second master said that this is not poison, but a good medicine for you to cure the cold."

"Would he be so kind?"

"He said that if the girl died of illness, he wouldn't be able to get back what he wanted."

It is indeed the truth: "Let it go."

The servant girl put down the bowl, bowed and backed out.Originally, Bai Feifei didn't want to drink this medicine, and she was almost dead, but after thinking about it, everyone must be desperately trying to save her, if she died, I would be so sorry to them.It is easy to die, and it is never too late to die if there is no other way.

After drinking the medicine, Bai Feifei lay down for a while, and began to mobilize his internal energy. After trying several times, he couldn't mobilize at all.Bai Feifei guessed that there should be something like Shixiangruanjin powder in the medicine.It seems that she can only be trapped here by Leng Er.

Let's say, in the palace, when Gu Xi turned down and returned to the imperial study, he saw a letter neatly placed on the desk.The unfamiliar handwriting made him flustered inexplicably.

Sure enough, when he opened the letter, he found that the letter was written by Leng Er. He said that he had arrested Bai Feifei and wanted to exchange Bai Feifei for the ten thousand miles of land.Give Gu Xichao half a month to think about it, and half a month later, we will meet at the back mountain in the suburbs of Beijing.

Feifei got caught?How could Leng Er have this ability?Or, is he lying?

Gu Xichao slapped the letter on the table, and the young lady listening outside heard the movement and hurried in and knelt down: "Your Majesty, forgive me, I don't know what happened?"

"I ask you, who sent this letter?"

The little eunuch looked up and looked down before lowering his head, tremblingly said: "Return to the emperor, the servant has been guarding outside today, no one has come to deliver the letter."

"What?" Could it be that Xin flew in by himself?No, Leng Er must have a method of sending letters without anyone noticing, "You really didn't bother to open the Imperial Study Room for a moment?"

The little eunuch thought about it carefully, his expression fluctuating.

"Speak, I forgive you for your innocence."

Hearing this, the little eunuch gave an amnesty: "Thank you, Your Majesty! In fact, the servant left for a while to go to the toilet—" Seeing Gu Xi face expressionless, he immediately added, "It was really only a short while! "

Be away for a little while?Thinking about it, this short moment gave Leng Er a chance to take advantage of the loophole.Then again, how did Leng Er sneak in so quietly?Buy off the palace man?Impossible, the palace people who are in charge of everything have been changed, and they are carefully selected, so there will be no mistakes.Even if it could be sent in by a palace man who doesn't care, Yi Leng Er's prudence should not be at ease for such an important letter.

But first you have to prove the truth of the matter.Gu Xichao immediately sent someone to Happy City to confirm, but Wang Lianhua arrived at the palace two days later.He came here without stopping overnight after Bai Feifei disappeared.

In Hao Ren's residence.

"What does Gu Xichao mean? Why didn't he see me again after seeing me? Could it be that he didn't want to save Feifei?" Wang Lianhua really didn't expect to be stopped outside the palace gate when entering the palace today. The guard said that the emperor will not see them for the time being.

"He might want to be alone and calm." Hao Ren felt that Gu Xichao was not that kind of person, "Didn't he say that he has his own measure?"

Proper?Who knows whether his own discretion is to do his best and obey the destiny, or is he really willing to use the throne to replace someone?Wang Lianhua was not reconciled, feeling very depressed.

Seeing Wang Lianhua's thoughts, Hao Ren smiled and said, "Don't worry, Feifei is fine."

Wang Lianhua snorted coldly and said nothing.

Ever since receiving Leng Er's letter, Gu Xichao has not summoned anyone since.Always locked in the imperial study room alone, I don't know what I'm doing.

Late night on the seventh day.Royal study.

Gu Xichao sat on the dragon chair, leaning against the back of the chair, supporting his body with one hand and Yuxi with the other, staring at it for a long time.I didn't let it go until my hands were sore.After straightening up, he spread out a blank imperial decree, picked up the pen and wrote in a fluttering motion for a while, and finally sealed it with the jade seal.He picked up the imperial decree and read it carefully twice, then smiled with relief, closed the imperial decree, and put it on the booklet piled up on his desk.

The next day, Ling Zhao, who was out of Beijing on business, came back to work, and met Hao Ren and Wang Lianhua who came to look for Gu Xichao at the gate of the palace, and only then did he know that Bai Feifei was taken away by Leng Er.After a while, the eunuch came to report that Ling Zhao was only allowed to see him, and Wang Lianhua was very angry.Ling Zhao comforted him, and hurried into the palace to find out.

Royal study.

After the ceremony of monarch and minister, Gu Xichao, dressed in casual clothes, began to read the memorial that Ling Zhao handed over, while Ling Zhao was anxious on the sidelines, the present is different from the past, the monarch and minister are different, so don't be too abrupt.

After reading the memorial, Gu Xichao nodded with satisfaction: "Well done, what do the common people think?"

"Ah?" Ling Zhao was only thinking about Bai Feifei, but couldn't react for a while.

"I'm asking you, what did the people say about you this time when you put money and grain to rescue the disaster?" Gu Xichao had no choice but to say it again.

"Oh, the common people say that I am a good official and a living Bodhisattva. They are all words of gratitude anyway." Recalling the love and admiration of the victims for him, Ling Zhao felt a little embarrassed.However, he immediately said, "Of course, they still say that the emperor is a Mingjun."

"Really?" It seems that even giving up the throne is worth it.

Seeing that Gu Xichao never mentioned the matter of Bai Feifei, Ling Zhao lost his temper: "Your Majesty, I met Hao Ren and Wang Lianhua at the gate of the palace. They talked about Miss Bai. Dare I ask why the Emperor didn't see you?" them?"

"No wonder you have been hesitant to speak since you came in. It turns out that you have seen them."

"Doesn't the emperor want to save Miss Bai?"

"Who said it can't be saved?"

"Then why don't you ask them to enter the palace to discuss countermeasures?"

"I have all the countermeasures, why should I ask them?"

"Is there a countermeasure?" Ling Zhao knew that Leng Er's condition was that Gu Xichao would give him the Zen seat, did Gu Xichao agree? "You want a Zen seat?"

Gu Xichao calmly picked up the imperial decree on the desk booklet: "It's all written."

"Do we have to do this? Maybe we have other ways." Ling Zhao didn't believe that Gu Xichao gave up easily.

"After confirming that Feifei was really kidnapped by Leng Er, I will make a decision, Zen position!" Gu Xichao was very serious, and there was no trace of embarrassment on his face.

"That is to say, you haven't thought of any other way at all?" Ling Zhao took a breath and suppressed the anger in his heart, "You gave up the hard-earned country so easily, you don't care, why do the common people What to do? You just pulled them out of the sea of ​​fire and pushed them up the mountain of swords?"

Gu Xichao did not answer Ling Zhao's question directly: "In the future, I will not be in the position and will not seek government affairs. I have done everything I can for them. I can't love the people like a child. I just want to save the woman I love. , and grow old with her forever." After a pause, the imperial edict was thrown out at Ling Zhao, "Let's take a look, is there anything wrong?"
