monopolize my master

"Don't sleep, wake up."

Ling Xiao felt someone pinch his face severely, and the pain spread quickly. Ling Xiao frowned displeasedly, clicked his tongue in disgust, and quickly opened his eyes.

"Stinky boy, I haven't seen you for a few days, how did you get to this point?" Luo Wei looked at Ling Xiao in night clothes and said displeasedly.

"Master? Why are you here, old man?" After seeing the person clearly, Ling Xiao hurriedly lowered his voice, "There are so many guards outside, how did you get in? Where is Master Fengze?"

"Aren't you brainless?" Luo Wei stretched out his hand and tapped Ling Xiao's head lightly, "After all, it's the inner courtyard of the palace. It's too big of a goal for two people to come in together, and I'm enough alone."

Ling Xiao looked at the candles in the next room, and then heaved a sigh of relief. He hurriedly closed the window, and checked carefully again, "Master, what is the reason for coming this time?"

"You forgot the letter you wrote to me yesterday?" Luo Wei said with a smile, "You asked me to help you rescue Master Zhang's child, did you forget?"

"So fast!" Ling Xiao said in surprise, "Where is that child? Where is he now?"

"Don't worry, it's all right. But I didn't rescue that child yesterday." Luo Wei smiled, "The day you were taken away by Xuanji Pavilion, that child pretended to be a prince to seduce you. The people from Xuanji Pavilion took them away, but there were too many situations that day, and the scene was chaotic. The child took the opportunity to escape and was met by me and Aze. I received your letter last night, so I hurried to Ling's mansion. I didn't miss you was brought here."

"So... is he really the child of Master Zhang Wenju?" Ling Xiao asked.

"Your intuition is correct." Luo Wei nodded, "He is indeed the only son of Mr. Zhang Wenju...I didn't want to talk to you about this matter." Luo Wei's eyes flashed with anger, "Unexpectedly, that People are not even willing to let Master Zhang's family members go."

"...that person?" Ling Xiao frowned, "You mean, Your Majesty?"

"That's right. He sent someone to kill Mr. Zhang, but he seemed to have leaked the token of Xuanji Pavilion in the process. He was afraid of causing criticism, so he put Mr. Zhang's relatives under house arrest. Mrs. Zhang escaped by chance, and he even sent someone to kill Mr. Zhang." Cast a net to hunt around..." Luo Wei's voice trembled, "Madam Zhang has a tough temper, she would rather die than submit, and she was forced to jump into the river. There is no body left. Master Zhang's mother cursed the emperor and was tortured to death as a madman... he Seeing that the child was young, he was sent to the Xuanji Pavilion child labor camp to train him to be a killer... You know where the Xuanji Pavilion is... When we rescued the child, the child was covered with scars. He fell into a coma for two days before recovering .”

"Damn it." Ling Xiao slammed his fist on the wall fiercely, tears glistening in his eyes, "He is so miserable, it's heinous!"

"Keep your voice down." Luo Wei frowned and pointed to Su Huang in the next room, "No matter what, this is also in the palace. That child is also his own son. If he finds out, he won't let you go."

Ling Xiao nodded, "I have a measure."

"Then what are you going to do now? I'll lure them away, and you should have no problem escaping."

"No. I want to stay." In the dark night, Ling Xiao said resolutely, "Some things are much more convenient when they are close at hand."

Luo Wei was not surprised when he heard the words, "According to your temperament, you will indeed do such a stupid thing. The matter you asked me to investigate has also given you the result, and I will go back to Taohua Mountain with Fengze tomorrow. If you need , let’s get in touch by letter.”

"Thank you, Master, for taking care of you in the past few days." Ling Xiao saluted, "Master, I will leave Master Zhang Wenju's relatives to you. If there is a chance in the future, I would like to adopt this child."

"Yes." Luo Wei nodded, "Let's go."

Ling Xiao understood, picked up the stone and threw it far away, attracting many guards away.Luo Wei patted Ling Xiao on the shoulder, took the opportunity to jump out, and disappeared into the vast night.

Looking at the figure of Master leaving, Ling Xiao sighed softly, thinking about his next plan.

"Ling Xiao."

Su Huang's voice came softly from the door, "Why are you still awake?"

Ling Xiao was taken aback. Unexpectedly, Su Huang was awakened. He said unnaturally, "... Well, I'm not too sleepy. When did you wake up?"

"Did a cat run out just now? It was too dark, so I didn't see clearly." Su Huang said.

"...Yes, there is a wild cat. I have already chased him out." Ling Xiao was a little nervous, and his speech was a little fluent, "But did it disturb you? I will accompany you back to rest."

Su Huang nodded, surprisingly didn't ask any more questions, and Ling Xiao also breathed a sigh of relief.

He probably didn't hear it.

At most, it was just seeing Luo Wei who left.

Ling Xiao comforted himself and settled Su Huang to sleep. He lit a candle and began to draw the distribution map of the palace according to his impression.

In the Sangong and Sixth Courtyard, Ling Xiao walked a lot with Su Huang on weekdays, and probably remembered the direction, but there was still one place to be confirmed.

Leng Gong.

This place is far away from the emperor's Taiming Hall. Generally, the emperor's chariots and horses need to make a big detour to get here, and it takes about a stick of incense to get there.However, after carefully studying the geographical location of Lenggong, Ling Xiao found that the actual distance between Lenggong and Taiming Hall was just two walls.Moreover, most of the people here are delirious and insane, and there are almost no guards on weekdays.Ling Xiao thought about it, and decided to go to Lenggong to find out what happened at night.

Ling Xiao quickly changed into his night clothes.It was dark, and most of the guards were sleepy.Ling Xiao used a small trick to abscond and escaped smoothly.Relying on the route he remembered, Ling Xiao quickly reached the Lenggong.

It was late at night, after the third watch.However, at this moment, the cold palace is still noisy and noisy.The woman's laughter, screams, and cries were mixed together.Ling Xiao was terrified when he heard it, and just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible after the investigation.

"A Ling, take care of him."

Ling Xiao was so frightened that he almost fell off the eaves.If you listen carefully, you can only hear the sound of a woman crying, and the man named A Ling didn't say anything.

It should be the last name.No surprise there either.Ling Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to move forward after making sure that no one was paying attention, but at this moment, the woman's words once again made Ling Xiao's nerves pumped tightly.

The woman cried, "Su Yin, take me away!"

Sue, the royal surname.This is the imperial palace, this Su Yin should be a member of the imperial family.And if an ordinary concubine who fell out of favor cried and cried, she should not nominate someone with a surname like this and call the name of a member of the royal family.Ling Xiao didn't know the real name of the current emperor, let alone the names of other royal family members.Who exactly is this Su Yin, Ling Xiao has no way of knowing.

"Who's over there?"

The fire flashed brightly, and the guards who were watching the night arrived at the cold palace at some point.There are not a few people who come, there are more than 30 to [-] people.

"Could it be that the whereabouts have been leaked? So many people are patrolling the Lenggong, they must be here for me." Ling Xiao was startled, he didn't care to continue to pry into the secret of the woman, and hurriedly jumped out of the Lenggong.Wan Wan fled around for a long time before getting rid of those guards and returning to the East Palace.

After tossing around for most of the night, Ling Xiao quickly changed his clothes and fell asleep.It's just that he didn't sleep well this time.In the dream, the voice of that woman calling Su Yin and A Ling heart-piercingly still lingered in his mind.

What Ling Xiao didn't see was that Su Huang stood in front of his bed not long after he fell asleep.The young man's eyes were full of painful and complicated emotions, and he looked extraordinarily sad in this night.
