Xiao Lingming spent half a month in such a state of confusion, and Qian Yun also came to see him every day. A few words of Song Xian leaked out of the place.

It's just that he really doesn't seem to be able to distinguish the difference between the former emperor and the new emperor. A few times, the last sentence is still called a saint, and the next sentence pops up for no reason.Just like this two or three, Song Xian didn't say anything else, but his temper was much better than before he took the throne.

Lan Ting has been sitting beside Song Xian for so many years, but in such a short period of time, he has thoroughly investigated everything that happened when Xiao Lingming first entered the palace.

Song Xian was holding the tea bowl, and Xiao Lingming, who had been sleeping a lot lately, was sleeping on his lap, and he didn't avoid him, so Lan Ting replied.

Lan Ting's words were brief and clear, and he gave a detailed report of the things he had found out in the past few days.

Song Xian frowned slightly when he heard that, he wrapped one hand around Xiao Lingming's loose hair, thought for a moment, and asked, "How did he get into the palace since he was a collateral orphan who escaped the catastrophe back then?"

Lan Ting replied: "Some people remember this passage, saying that Li Diaosi personally brought him to the imperial court."

Song Xian's intuition was wrong, "Why did he recommend it? The emperor is not very masculine, and the harem has never kept child prostitutes. Why did he accept him alone? Why did Li Fu find him? Is it because of his beauty? Although it is rare, entering the palace with his status is a concubine, and the emperor is not a person who indulges in beauty."

Song Xian seemed to think of something that made him unhappy, "My mother's concubine was the most beautiful in the harem back then, and she was a concubine only after I was born." After he finished speaking, he saw Lanting's expression hesitated, as if I thought of something but didn't know whether to say it, "You and I are ambiguous, just say something."

"Does the sage know the old news about the late emperor's marriage with the princess of the Xiao family?" Lan Ting said, "Is there any similarity between the Empress Ming and Xiao's offshoots?"

Song Xian waved his hand and said no, "That's just gossip, and my mother and concubine met her back then, and occasionally told me that she was not beautiful, and her complexion was plain." He paused again as he spoke, "But ... You should go and check it out, I don't care about his past, but I have to know a thing or two."

Lan Ting nodded in response, and couldn't help asking: "Sage, why don't you wait for the Qingming after the Ming Dynasty, and ask the empress yourself?"

Song Xian snorted and laughed, "He... I asked him and I asked you to investigate, it's two different things."

The next day.

Xiao Lingming woke up slowly from a severe headache, and when the throbbing pain gradually disappeared, he slowly opened his eyes. In a daze, he saw a fine dragon pattern in front of him. For a moment, he didn't know what year it was. , Subconsciously bowed his head a little bit and sat up and called out in doubt, "Saint?"

Song Xian was awakened by his sound, without opening his eyes, he grabbed Xiao Lingming's sleeve and stuffed him under the quilt, "How long is it, don't make trouble."

This muffled complaint fell into Xiao Lingming's ears, and he woke up completely in a jerk. He closed his eyes, "Song Xian?"

When Xiao Lingming uttered the sound, Song Xian was half dozed off, and sat up in a blink of an eye, "Can you see it? Do you recognize someone?"

Seeing him like this, Xiao Lingming couldn't react. He rubbed his eyebrows with one hand, "...how long?"

"You fell hard, fell asleep for more than half a month, and finally woke up and became dazed for half a month." Song Xian replied to him, turning his head and lifted the bed curtain, summoned the palace servants, and said, "Come on, Hurry up and pass on Qian Yun."

As soon as Fang Fang exited, he was stopped by Xiao Lingming, "It's okay, call someone over in the afternoon, I want to lie down for a while." He pointed outside again, "It's not early in the sun, you should get up around .”

Xiao Lingming looked at Song Xian whose face collapsed at the sight of the sky, and said in a leisurely manner, "I don't know what to do in such a day of sleepless nights. You all want to be emperor."

When the two were talking, Lan Ting came in and called out, seeing that the emperor had woken up, he immediately greeted him with the washing things.

Song Xian got out of bed, turned his head and said, "Empress and concubine also have morning and evening peace, do you live as comfortably as everyone?"

Xiao Lingming lay down lazily, and didn't express the slightest to Song Xian's words, only said in a mean-spirited manner, "Respectfully send off Your Majesty." In return, Song Xian gave him a glare.

After Song Xian left, Xiao Lingming called for someone, but he didn't see Li Zhi, but a strange court lady named Su Lan, so he asked her, "Where is Li Zhi?"

Su Lan replied: "Li Zhi was not good at serving her, and was punished by the sage to go to the court."

Xiao Lingming glanced at her sideways, "Are you still alive?"

Su Lan shook her head, "I don't know."

Although Xiao Lingming had no sense of master-servant affection for Li Zhi, but he was the one who said a few words, he couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable, and asked again: "What about Li Fu?"

Su Lan bowed even lower, "Li Diao Temple was dealing with the affairs of the Hangluo Temple a few days ago, and only returned to the palace two days ago." She paused, stepped forward and said softly: "Now the palace is in charge It is the Lan Diao Temple next to His Majesty."

Hearing this, Xiao Lingming raised his eyelids and glanced at her, "You are caring, run for Gu, if Li Zhi is still alive, bring him out, and then invite Li Diaosi to come over."

Su Lan quickly responded with a smile, "It's a slave's blessing to be able to work by your mother's side." After she finished speaking, she bowed and stepped back.

Li Fu came very quickly, he looked a little more haggard than when the late emperor was there, but he still bowed in a very polite manner.

"Anything about the Tangluo Temple?" Xiao Lingming sat behind the short table, flipping through the recent memorials book by book, whether Song Xian had approved it or not, he scanned it at a glance.After getting Li Fu's affirmative answer, Xiao Lingming asked him softly, "Does your lord want to guard the spirit of the late emperor in the future, or stay in the palace?"

Li Fu smiled, and finally there was some sincere emotion on his face as plain as silk paper, "I will guard you."

Xiao Lingming sighed softly, "Thank you." Then he said: "My lord, please go to Wu Yan's residence for Gu. Song Xian was oppressed by the late emperor for so many years, and now it is inevitable that he will get rich suddenly and act as he pleases."

"Yes, I will go now." Li Fu nodded in agreement.

……

After Song Xianfang came down to court, he got the news from Lanting that Wu Yan was summoned to the palace by the Empress Dowager Ming. He thought that Xiao Lingming would do something after he knew what he had done, but he really didn't expect it to be so soon.

When the new emperor stepped into the front hall, he saw Xiao Lingming sitting high on the head, with Li Fu in the red robe standing beside him, who was as silent as ever.Under the steps, Wu Yan, who had been sick for many days, was looking at him with a smile.

Even though Song Xian was unhappy in his heart, he still smiled and said: "Wu Qing has been sick for a long time, why did you come to see Minghou today?" He lifted his clothes and climbed up the steps without covering up Covered up and sat beside Xiao Lingming.

Xiao Lingming didn't stick to these details, he lightly tapped the table with his hand on the desk, motioning Song Xian to take a look.

Song Xian followed Xiao Lingming's movements and saw a volume of the Empress Dowager's Edict that had been drafted flat on the table, and he couldn't hold back his expression for a moment.

Xiao Lingming put one hand on his cheek, looked at him jokingly, and said slowly: "The emperor came back at just the right time. The harem register has been delayed for so long due to loneliness. Let's make a decision today, so that the eldest son of the emperor can be taken over together." into the palace."

"What Empress Ming said is reasonable." Wu Yan agreed.

Song Xian pursed his lips and smiled, lowered his eyes and glanced at Wu Yan who was standing at the bottom of the steps, knowing that this matter would not be so easy to pass, the tip of his tongue stuck between his teeth, "I have been thinking about this matter in my heart, but my health will be better after tomorrow. Master Wu is harassing each other with the government, is it because he doesn't pay attention to the well-being of the Empress Dowager?"

Wu Yan bowed, "I don't dare, it's just that the name is correct. Your majesty doesn't care about the names of concubines, and you should always take care of the eldest son of the emperor who is still in the hidden mansion. You should also think about the Empress Ming and the Emperor Wenwu. reputation."

A cold look flashed across Song Xian's eyes, and when he looked back, he saw that although Xiao Lingming was still looking at him with a smile, his attitude was resolute, he let out a light breath, and finally took a step back. The honorary title is not good, let me think about it for two days, as for those old people in my hidden residence, I will issue a decree today."
