Chapter 241 Threat
In the end, although the queen was unwilling to accept this, she turned around and left the hall.
She knew that it was a foregone conclusion that Concubine Lou would turn over, and if she continued to make trouble, it would be detrimental to her, so it was better to take a step back and wait for the opportunity.
"The truth of the matter has been revealed. Do you have any objections to the restoration of the imperial concubine's posthumous title?"
"My minister... I have no objection."
On the same day, the emperor issued an imperial edict, not only restoring the posthumous title of Concubine Lou, but also rewarding her with many rare treasures, claiming that this was compensation for Concubine Lou being imprisoned in the cold palace.
When the concubines in the harem saw that Concubine Lou had not only regained her posthumous title but was also favored by the emperor, they immediately brought gifts to Lan Yuyuan to congratulate her, but they were all turned away by Concubine Lou because she was unwell.
In contrast, Linglong seems to be more popular with Concubine Lou, and she will not be stopped every time she goes.
Perhaps it was because Concubine Lou was approachable and good-looking that Linglong would go to Lan Yuyuan to talk to her every day when she had nothing to do.
After the Queen learned about this matter, Linglong was summoned to the Queen's palace as soon as she returned from Lan Yuyuan.
"Linglong has met E Niang."
The queen smiled and stretched out her hand to her. When she came closer, she pulled her and asked, "I heard that you go to Concubine Lou's place every day. Do you get along well with her?"
Although Linglong didn't understand the affairs of the harem, she also knew that the queen didn't like Concubine Lou, so she immediately shook her head and denied: "No, I just go there occasionally."
"Really? But I heard that you seem to go there every day. Why, are you afraid that I will be angry?"
"No, I just think that the imperial concubine is a very nice person, and I don't want you to hate her."
The queen frowned in displeasure, and endured the discomfort and asked again: "That Song Baoling, does she often go to Lanyu Garden?"
"I don't know, I've never met her there."
"What about the prince? You can always meet him, right? Did you hear what he said to Concubine Lou?"
"We have met a few times, but the emperor brother and the imperial concubine usually chat about trivial matters, nothing special."
Looking at the innocent Linglong, the queen almost couldn't breathe. She spent a long time asking questions, but she didn't ask anything useful?
"Linglong, you should know why E Niang is looking for you. Don't you intend to stand by E Niang?"
Linglong tilted her head in confusion, and then shook her head blankly, "Mother, I don't understand what you mean, but what I asked just now, I already told the truth."
The queen didn't know whether she really didn't understand, or whether she was hiding it intentionally, but she was still angry with her anyway.
After sending Linglong away, the queen immediately started to help her find a husband, and then found a reason to marry her off as soon as possible.
The next day, Linglong learned that the queen planned to get her married, and she immediately guessed that it was because of what happened yesterday.
She felt aggrieved and didn't know who to complain to. Just then she saw the sachet given to her by Song Baoling on the table, and her whole body suddenly became energetic.
Hotel——
"good!"
Song Baoling clapped excitedly and looked at Jun Tingsheng who was dancing the sword in the courtyard. Maybe he was too excited, and a blush gradually appeared on his face.
Seeing how happy she was, Jun Tingsheng made the sword dance more difficult and harder, and her smooth sword skills once again received applause and praise.
"Wow! That's great! Yay!"
A more excited voice suddenly joined in. Song Baoling was startled. She turned around and saw that Linglong had arrived.
"Sister Linglong, why are you here?"
At this time, Jun Tingsheng also stopped, walked to Song Baoling's side and saluted Linglong.
Looking at the handsome man and girl in front of her, Linglong suddenly said with a smile on her face: "Ling'er, I saw it just now. You see Mr. Jun was fascinated by it. Could it be that... you two are a couple, right?"
"How is that possible! We are not who you think."
Song Baoling denied it without thinking, and then explained her relationship with Jun Tingsheng to Linglong. Her eager look made Jun Tingsheng frown in displeasure.
However, Song Baoling was focused on Linglong and didn't notice his reaction at all, but even if she did, she probably wouldn't think about it elsewhere.
The two little girls joked and laughed with each other, completely forgetting about Jun Tingsheng's existence. Later, Linglong suddenly remembered the purpose of her coming here, pulled Song Baoling and ran into the house, leaving Jun Tingsheng alone in a daze.
"This slave has met the young master."
Jun Tingsheng turned to look behind him and recognized the person as the eunuch from Yemuqi Palace, so he nodded politely: "My father-in-law, do you have anything to do with me?"
"Sir, Your Highness invites you."
Jun Tingsheng didn't want to get too close to Yemuqi, but due to the current situation, he had to go to meet him. As a result, when he followed the eunuch to Yemuqi's palace, Yemuqi had already prepared a banquet.
.
"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."
"Young Master Jun, there is no need to be polite, please take a seat."
All the palace people left the door, and Yemuqi stood up and poured wine for Jun Tingsheng. "Thank you for protecting Yuan Yi's mother all the way and allowing her to testify smoothly."
"If it weren't for the help of you and Miss Song, I don't know when my mother-in-law would be able to clear her name. Thank you so much."
Jun Tingsheng looked at him expressionlessly, shaking his head and denying: "Your Highness misunderstood, I did this just for Ling'er, not to help you."
"But you did help me."
"If Your Highness insists on thinking so, then let it be."
Yemuqi smiled and raised his glass. Seeing Jun Tingsheng drinking with reluctance, he suddenly said, "You seem to be the same as you were when you were a child."
Hearing this, Jun Tingsheng stopped drinking and looked up at him: "What do you mean by this, Your Highness?"
Yemuqi did not answer his question. Instead, he talked about interesting things about Jun Tingsheng's childhood. He did not look like he was talking nonsense at all.
As the person involved, Jun Tingsheng was even more shocked, because what Yemuqi said was true, which made him have to be vigilant.
"By the way, besides thanking you today, I have something else to show you."
With that said, Yemuqi took out a piece of letter paper from his arms, opened it and placed it in front of Jun Tingsheng.
"What is written above... must be familiar to Mr. Jun."
Jun Tingsheng was shocked when he saw the content on the letter. The date written on the letter was clearly his birth date, his real birth date.
"What is your purpose?"
Yemuqi raised his lips and smiled, slowly picked up the letter, folded it and said, "You don't have to be so nervous. In fact, I'm just a little curious, why is your birthday the same as your emperor's birthday?"
Seeing Jun Tingsheng's stern eyes, Yemuqi's smile did not change and he said: "By the way, I also heard that you were sent away by King Chengyang when you were a child. I wonder if there is any inside story?"
In an instant, the atmosphere became tense. Jun Tingsheng exuded a cold aura. He stared at Yemuqi and warned in a cold tone: "Your Highness, sometimes being too curious is not a good thing."
"There are so many weird things in this world. If you investigate things that you shouldn't investigate out of curiosity, you may only get into trouble, and ultimately your life will be at risk."
