Chapter 53 ◇The Sword God's Teasing

The next day, Lingbi packed his luggage and set off for Wanmei Villa.

Although Hua Manlou didn't want to meet Ximen Chuuxue, but he really didn't want to be separated from Lingbi at this time, so he also boarded the carriage and went with Lingbi.

Along the way, Lingbi has been depressed, and Huamanlou coaxes her in every possible way, but to no avail.Hua Manlou was worried, and felt that Lingbi was suppressing her inner anger and murderous desire to the utmost. She was like a lonely warrior, facing the huge disaster falling from the sky alone, no one knew whether she would live or die.

This kind of pain and despair that cannot be shared with others tightly strangled Lingbi's neck, making her almost suffocate. She knew that she was about to reach her limit.

Since returning to the palace, she has been secretly following the eldest princess, learning to deal with some private matters.Later, she even took over Dongchang and Jinyiwei publicly, showing her position to the world.She can no longer turn back, and of course, she has never thought of turning back, this is the path she chose willingly.

If going back to the palace to be a princess is for comfort and wealth, why should she leave the Hua family and the embrace of Huamanlou.She was willing to return to the palace to be a princess because of those who did not hesitate to sacrifice their lives for her back then, and especially for her brother.Since her identity can do many good things that others cannot do, she will learn to do it and learn to share the burden on his shoulders for her brother.

At the beginning, Zhu Youtang was extremely opposed to her getting involved in court affairs.But she didn't compromise, instead she found Wang Shu and he made a fuss with corrupt officials and dignitaries, completely abandoning her future.In desperation, Zhu Youtang had no choice but to acquiesce in what she did.

The more you walk on this road, the more blood you will get on your hands. There is the blood of the most sinful as well as the blood of the innocent.For a person born with the desire to kill, this is equivalent to wandering on the edge of a cliff, and if he is not careful, he will be doomed.

Originally, Lingbi had controlled her murderous intentions very well, but after learning about Zhu Youtang's true illness, she only felt that her chest was full of mania and grief. She wanted to vent and explode, but she Knowing that it was impossible to do so, she suppressed herself as much as possible.

Huamanlou didn't know what Lingbi was feeling and thinking. Although he couldn't help her overcome her demons, he stayed by her side every day, hugging her, comforting her, and giving her the greatest support.

Just when the carriage was about to reach the finish line, when Hua Manlou thought Lingbi would never speak again, Lingbi suddenly hugged him and asked softly in his arms.

"Seventh brother, do you think good people will be rewarded?"

Huamanlou smiled, his smile contained endless power, he hugged Lingbi tightly, lowered his head to kiss the hair on the top of her head, and then said solemnly: "Yes, definitely."

Hearing this, Lingbi finally showed a soft and stretched smile.

A few days later, the group finally arrived in Saibei.Because Huamanlou didn't want to meet Ximen Chuuxue, before and after delivering Lingbi to the gate of Wanmei Villa, he turned his horse's head and prepared to live in a nearby town.

Lingbi still couldn't understand the atmosphere between Huamanlou and Ximen Chuuxue who respected each other but didn't want to know each other. She was too lazy to bother, and simply left this weird incident behind.

Wanmei Villa is still the same as it was in the past, and even the old housekeeper still looks like he has too much energy.

When Lingbi saw Ximen Chuuxue, he was standing in the plum grove looking into the distance.

"Master!" Lingbi rushed forward to shake Ximen Chuuxue's arm, and said excitedly, "I'm coming to see you!"

Ximen Chuuxue looked down at her, and said indifferently, "You still remember that you have a master."

Lingbi choked and hurriedly stood up to listen to the instruction.

Ximen Chuuxue said again: "How long has it been since you came to study medicine?"

Lingbi twisted the corner of her clothes and said, "It's been a year..."

After rubbing his thumb on the hilt of the sword for a while, Ximen Chuuxue stared straight at Lingbi, and said for a while, "Put out your hand."

Lingbi bit her lip, and looked at Ximen Chuuxue pitifully. Seeing that Ximen Chuuxue was indifferent, she had no choice but to honestly stretch out her hands and turn her palms out.

The hilt of the sword unceremoniously tapped Lingbi's palm three times, Lingbi grinned in pain, and hurriedly put her palm on her back and rubbed it.

Seeing this scene, the old housekeeper who was peeping secretly from a distance scratched his head and scratched his head anxiously, wishing he could personally go into battle to demonstrate the correct way of chasing a child bride for his young owner.

After kneading her palms, Lingbi hurriedly took out a small booklet recording pulse from her bosom, and stuffed it into Ximen Chuuxue's hand.

"Master, help me check this man's pulse, I can't see well."

Ximen Chuuxue unfolded the booklet, took a full look at the pulse, and said: "This man has a short lifespan." After speaking, his brows twitched suddenly, and there was a rare look of surprise on his face.

Seeing that his expression was not right, Ling Bi was anxious and asked, "What's wrong?"

Ximen Chuuxue said indifferently: "The pulse condition is weird, you need to check the pulse yourself to be sure."

Ling Bi hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed his sleeve, flattering him and said: "Master, do me a favor and make a medical visit for me? This person is actually me..."

Before she could finish speaking, Ximen Chuuxue raised her hand to signal her to be quiet.

"I know who it is."

Lingbi was startled, and just about to ask, suddenly an evil figure flashed in his mind.

She thought in her heart, yes, the big devil must have told Master!He was able to know such a private thing, I am afraid that the matter of brother's illness is not simple.The big devil told Master about this, so there must be his intentions, but now she has no way out, she will invite Master to the capital no matter what.

Thinking of this, Lingbi became more and more anxious, and hurriedly shouted: "Since the master told you, he will not harm me. Now my brother is ill, so I really can't wait...Master, follow me to Beijing to save people!"

Hearing this, Ximen Chuuxue put his hands in his sleeves, raised his eyebrows slightly and said: "I never help others."

Lingbi choked, and said for a while: "Even I won't help?"

"No help."

Ling Bi was out of breath, and she rushed forward to bite Ximen Chuuxue's arm, but Ximen Chuuxue dodged lightly and dodged.Lingbi was so angry that she tore off her belt and said to Ximen bitterly, "If you don't help me, I'll tell people that you molested me, and then you have to marry me!"

Ximen Chuuxue rubbed the hilt of his sword with his hand, and said coldly, "Yes."

Lingbi froze, her lips moved a few times, she pointed at Ximen Chuuxue tremblingly and said, "What are you talking about?!"

"I can marry you."

Lingbi was completely dumbfounded, she was holding a belt in her hand, her clothes were loose, and she looked stupid.

Ximen Chuuxue looked at her for a moment, then said slowly, "I'm not impregnable either."

Lingbi's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly held her breath to listen to the following.

As the sun went down, Huamanlou stood in the newly rented small courtyard, closing her eyes and gently sniffing the plum blossoms in the courtyard.There was a sound of messy footsteps, and Hua Manlou smiled happily, turning sideways to the courtyard gate.

"Abi, you're here. Is everything going well?" Hua Manlou asked the person outside the door.

Lingbi stood outside the door with her head down, whispering softly, "It's about to succeed."

After finishing speaking, she rushed in suddenly, stretched out her hand and squeezed Hua Manlou's buttocks hard.

Hua Manlou froze for an instant, and when he managed to recover, Ling Bi had already fled away, and her ecstatic voice came from a distance.

"It's pinched, it's pinched! Have you seen it clearly? Hurry up—you go and report to my master, let him pack up his things and go!"

Hua Manlou: "..."

At the same moment, in Wanmei Villa.

An evil-looking man with eyebrows flying into his temples was standing where Cai Lingbi was standing just now, and Ximen Chuuxue was looking at him coldly.

"If you tell me about the emperor, it means that I will help."

Yu Luocha smiled, as a default.

Seeing this, Ximen Chuuxue looked even colder, "What are you going to do?"

Hearing this, Yu Luocha spread his hands innocently, and said with a half-smile, "You have wronged me. Some people want to do bad things, and I just want to stop them."

Ximen Chuuxue didn't believe it in his heart, but he didn't say anything.He ignored Yu Luocha, turned around and walked out of the forest.The red plum blossoms stand proudly on both sides, and the snowy road between them is narrow and long, as if it is about to rush into the sky and connect to the sky ladder, so that Ximen Chuuxue can walk into the bustling streets of the capital.

Although the capital is still a prosperous scene, there is a faint crisis in this prosperity.

Zhu Youtang's health is getting worse and worse, and today he still has a cough.Seeing that Zhu Youtang was really weak, the officials would deliberately say a few words less when discussing matters every day.Some veterans even wrote to ask Zhu Youtang to rest for a few days, but Zhu Youtang refused.

At the beginning of his administration, there must be no slack in the slightest. Zhu Youtang is very clear about this truth.Not only that, but he also had doubts about his condition.Although I was sick in my womb and my health was worse than others, I would never weaken to such a degree all at once, there must be something dirty in it.

In late autumn, the weather is already very cold, and there is fog between people's breathing.In the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Youtang was wearing a fur coat and was crouching in front of the desk, reviewing the memorial.

There were seven or eight stacks of memorials on the case, and Zhu Youtang carefully reviewed each one, and drew on the memorials with a pen.He reviewed very slowly and carefully, and occasionally when he was emotional, he would cause a shocking cough.

The stacks of memorials moved down little by little, the ministers in the Qianqing Palace came and went, and the time changed from day to night.The dinner was hot and then cold, and then it was hot and cold, Zhu Youtang was busy reviewing the memorial and discussing matters with the courtiers, but he completely forgot about it.

After seeing off the last batch of courtiers, the eunuch Wang An wiped his tears, knelt down and said to Zhu Youtang, "My Lord Long Live, you can eat something before watching!"

Zhu Youtang was taken aback by him, the pen in his hand froze, after a while, he smiled and said: "It's hard for you, I'll take it now."

Wang An's face showed joy, and he hurriedly arranged the piles of vegetables, and filled a bowl of soup for Zhu Youtang, saying: "Master, let's get over the heat first."

Zhu Youtang took the hot soup and drank it slowly.

The fragrant white mist hovered over Zhu Youtang's body, which was extremely warm.He got up and opened the window, glanced outside, and then murmured: "It's already dark, those ministers must have not left the palace gate just now."

Due to the need to stay in the palace, the courtiers could neither carry weapons nor servants when they were called into the palace, and could only go in and out alone.It was already late at this time, and it was dark and cold all around, those ministers who had not yet walked out of the palace gate must be suffering from the cold and walking on the road in the dark.

Zhu Youtang pondered for a moment, then turned to ask Wang An, "Are there any ministers in Beijing who haven't returned home due to cumbersome business affairs?"

Wang An thought about it for a while, and said, "Yes, I'm afraid there are not many."

Hearing this, Zhu Youtang sighed and said, "When it's dark and cold like this, those honest and honest officials must have no lights when they walk, let alone those old officials who have already lived a long life and have limited legs and feet."

After sighing, Zhu Youtang immediately handed down the imperial decree. From now on, all officials in Beijing, regardless of their positions, will be escorted by patrolling auxiliary troops with lights when they travel at night due to official business.

From then on, those ministers who entered the palace to discuss matters no longer had to leave the palace in the dark, and those small officials who were running around in the capital with the safety of the people in their hearts were also guaranteed safety.

When a petty official who had reached his sixtieth birthday and had never had a chance to face the Holy Spirit in this life was supported by young patrolling auxiliary soldiers to go home, the brightly lit road home would remain in his heart forever. .As he staggered forward, he wiped away the tears on his face, silently blessing the young emperor in his heart.

This old man has lived for more than 60 years and has experienced the Chenghua era full of demons and ghosts. He never imagined that there would be such a day when the person sitting on the dragon chair who is high above him and holds the power of life and death will take care of him carefully. Light a lamp to go home.

This is a good emperor, he tried his best to hold back his sobs, and thought in his heart, this time, my Daming is really saved, saved!

The lights flickered, and gradually disappeared with the group of auxiliary troops, and then completely disappeared at the end of the street, but the light to go home has been forever lit in everyone's heart.

The author has something to say: the last incident written by the stupid author is a true event recorded in history books! ~Zhu Youtang is really, really a very good emperor.So this time, I want him to have a warm ending.
