Half-dead paulownia

Could it be that I was too negligent?Lie Sha couldn't help doubting himself, but what surprised him was not only these things, but that even though Xiao Su disappeared, another man named Ling Su appeared in his sight, because on weekdays, whether it was for Anling Kingdom or the world Mr. Zhaoguo still has some understanding, but now this stranger suddenly appeared, but he still has a seemingly very close relationship with Ling Han, which is really puzzling.

"Didn't you see Xiao Su? Then you saw other strangers." There was no surprise or doubt in the ghost king's tone, but he still affirmed with confidence.

"Father Shengming! I did find a strange man in Huanzhao's palace, and he seemed to have an unusual relationship with Ling Han, and even called him the third younger brother, but we have no record of that man. None." Lie Sha was immediately shocked by the ghost king's speculation, and it turned out that these were already in his expectation.

"Hmph! I finally couldn't help but show up. It seems that it is not a last resort. Ling Su will definitely not show up." Some ghost kings said with deep understanding at this moment, as if they were interested in this Ling Su. The man is no stranger. "You continue to go to Huanzhao Country to keep an eye on them, and just report in time if there is any situation. I'm curious what he wants to do."

With a cold breath and a sinister tone, the ghost king has been silently controlling everything from beginning to end, waiting for the opportunity to overthrow everything.

They were all waiting with bated breath for Anling Yuhao's next words, because they felt that perhaps the truth would soon surface, and the moment when it was revealed was only missing.

"But it's not the time yet, tomorrow is the appointed time." An Ling Yuhao actually put on a show, pretending to be mysterious.

"Could it be you?" Meng'er also saw what Anling Yuhao said, and pointed at Ling Zining a little excitedly. "Is this the plan you said? What's the difference between this and what you will do that midnight? It's not about taking the imperial concubine there."

"Meng'er, it's different." Ling Zining once again took the words for Anling Yuhao, still with a pleasant and alluring expression, not even the slightest bit of reluctance.

"You know everything?" Guiyue asked back. Hearing her say these words, she must have understood the current situation.

"Yu Hao told me everything, otherwise how would the show go on?" Ling Zining said frankly, "So I believe in Yu Hao, and for the sake of Uncle Xiao and the baby, I am willing to go with him in person tomorrow."

During the speech, his eyes skipped over Anling Yuhao's calm and calm face, but he also felt a little surprised. Maybe he didn't expect that he would be so desperate to face the danger, he didn't expect that he would be so convinced Treat him with everything.

The night gradually fell, and the silence finally swallowed the earth. The north wind was bleak, blowing out bursts of chill, and the sparse shadows swayed, mottled the night sky, and the covered moonlight was slightly hazy. A black shadow flashed, bringing The falling of dead leaves.

Ling Han is still used to reviewing memorials alone, listening to the cold wind outside, his heart feels chilly, how long has it been since he felt the warmth of his heart again?Suddenly he thought of Meng Li, whom he hadn't seen for many days. The couple who had been in vain all these years caused both of them to suffer. Who is the one who is obsessed?And who gave it the indifference?Unexplainable resentment, unceasing sorrow of parting, what kind of feeling should it be?

Slowly putting on the dragon robe, Eunuch Yu, who was holding the handle outside the door, saw Ling Han getting up, and hurried forward, not daring to neglect, because there was already an unwritten rule between him and Ling Han, and he had already Knowing that the emperor is lonely and lonely, he is used to a room alone, and will not be disturbed by anyone, so he can only quietly wait outside, waiting for orders at any time.

"Your Majesty, where are you going?" Eunuch Yu, whose hair had already turned gray, asked with concern. This was not a subordinate who committed a crime against his superiors. With Eunuch Yu's age, he had already seen through it. In this world, witnessing everything about Ling Han is like watching his own child's growth.

So to Ling Han, Eunuch Yu is both a teacher and a friend.

"Go and see Mengli." Taking a deep breath, she also made this decision.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid Empress Mengli has already fallen asleep." Eunuch Yu reminded, as if he meant not to disturb her.

While hesitating, he suddenly heard a rush of footsteps outside. Before he had time to see what was going on, he seemed to be stopped by the guards bravely, leaving only the echo of weapons resounding in the corridor.

"I want to see the emperor!" A man's familiar voice suddenly came out, but he also felt the urgency.

"Meet me!" Ling Han heard Ling Su's voice, no matter how the voice changed, he still heard it clearly.

Sure enough, it was Ling Su's flustered expression. Looking at the situation in front of him, Eunuch Yu retreated consciously, leaving only the two of them in the study.

"The child is gone." Ling Su finally said anxiously, even his voice was a little trembling, such a panicked expression would never appear on his face, but now it is so easy to show it.

"Disappeared?" Ling Han was naturally surprised when he heard the news, "Your whereabouts are so secretive, have you been discovered by someone? Are you sure it's not the child who went out to play?" Still a little unbelievable, even With a bit of luck in my heart.

"Certainly not, the child has already fallen asleep early, so I went out to get some fresh air when I had nothing to do. It was only a matter of time. When I came back, there was no sign of the child on the bed, and the bed was still warm. That means he just disappeared not long ago." Although Ling Su was a little panicked, he still analyzed it methodically.

"Didn't you check carefully around? Maybe they didn't go very far, let alone with a child." Ling Han asked urgently.

He punched fiercely on the beams and pillars of the study, "I have searched for it, and it seems that there is no trace left. At first glance, it is not the work of ordinary people. If you dare to come here in such a secret, you are sure that the child will die." Here, since they are the ones who are investigating us, they are naturally not easy to deal with." Ling Su seemed to give up the idea of ​​continuing to search, because he was sure that even sending the guards of the palace would be futile. If you go here, you must be well prepared.

"Who do you think it will be?" Ling Han seemed to be able to sense from Ling Su's mouth that he had doubts about the candidate.

"That's the only person who knows the truth, the person who knows my identity, the person who is sure that my child and I are hiding here, so that's the only person left." Ling Su had a thoughtful expression, but he couldn't hide it. anger.

"You mean... the ghost king?" Ling Han's first instinct was that the ghost king was indeed very suspicious, and only his subordinates had the ability to come and go without a trace like this, acting insidiously and viciously. "It's obvious that I came here to take refuge, but I didn't expect that I still can't escape this catastrophe. I don't know what the fate of this child will be." I couldn't help feeling a little worried.

Thinking of the day when Ling Su came to Huanzhao Capital with a child, this was unexpected by Ling Han. He didn't expect Ling Su to come back so easily, and there was no sudden visit without any notice. It turned out that in order to avoid a disaster, I was forced to think of this place helplessly.

From Ling Su's mouth, I learned that people in the world who knew his true identity wanted to chase and kill him, and this child was something he needed to protect, so he had no choice but to take him to Huanzhao Kingdom and wait With the arrival of his father, but all these things are just Ling Su's explanation to him, but he firmly believes it.

"Then what should we do now?" Ling Han didn't know what to do next. If he was found, wouldn't Ling Su be in danger?And how should the child explain it?

"It seems that we can only wait and see what happens. If it is really aimed at me, it is nothing more than trying to use the children to let me show up. I don't need to look for them, they will naturally come looking for me." Ling Su affirmed The tone of voice seemed to understand their conspiracy better.

It seemed that she hadn't felt such irritability for a long time. Guiyue lay on the bed and didn't want to sleep at all. In fact, she didn't need to think too much, everything was decided by others, but since the moment she met Anling Yuhao and Xiao Jinmo, However, the trajectory of my own life has also changed accordingly. I have experienced the world again and again, and I have recognized the reality of each scene. Now, I am really a little bit embarrassed.

Suddenly, inadvertently, I saw a figure flashing past the door, and the sensitive Guiyue turned over and jumped off the bed, walked to the door lightly, slowly opened a crack in the door, squatted down and looked outside.

"Ah!" A man screamed, and Guiyue stepped back a few steps and sat down on the ground.

The door was suddenly opened, and a white figure was seen floating in front of the door. His loose long hair was flying in the moonlight, and his invisible features were covered by the flying hair. The cold air seemed to be able to freeze everything, making people tremble from the bottom of their hearts. .

Guiyue looked at the figure in front of her in disbelief, could she have seen a ghost in the middle of the night?Legend has it that it is common to encounter ghosts in this deep palace, because there are countless grievances here. Since ancient times, the palace has been regarded as the most yin place, and this cold and hideous figure should be... a ghost Although Yue is a martial arts practitioner, even so, when anyone sees such a scene again, they will feel helpless and horrified. What's more, the bright red blood flowing from the faintly visible corner of the mouth is still dripping. The white clothes were soaked and even fell to the ground. The sound of ticking was even more strange in the middle of the night.
