Ling Yutong leaned down and bowed down: "She once talked about family affairs with my daughter. She sought me out for revenge, and she also hated the Qi family. But the Qi family will never abandon the lives of the people. There must be something fishy in this.
, or someone deliberately guided her, then..."
"I haven't figured out many things yet, so I boldly beg the Holy Lord to spare Lu He's life. Whenever it involves the common people, the Qi family will not evade or cover up at all."
After she finished speaking, before the Holy Lord could speak, Zhou Luoyu sneered: "Are you the adopted daughter of the Qi family? You keep speaking so brightly about the Qi family, why don't you do that thing of collaborating with the enemy and treason!"
"Second Prince, be careful what you say!"
Ling Yutong and Qi Yan raised their eyes at the same time and said in unison.
Qi Yan's eyes seemed to be filled with fierce fire, cold and burning, which made Zhou Luoyu's heart tremble. He still said hard, "Isn't it? The affairs of the Qi family are spread among the people, the army, and
Yes! But you still..."
As Zhou Luoyu's words became more and more outrageous, the Holy One was so angry that his chest heaved violently, and he shouted loudly: "Shut up! You have no right to interrupt!" The Holy One shouted.
Zhou Luoyu lowered his eyes in frustration, not daring to say anything more. He rubbed his painful ears and reluctantly whispered: "Father, do you want to change the punishment for my son? The grounding is really uncomfortable, and I am about to
It's the Lotus Lantern Festival, and all the sons and ministers promised the mother and concubine to fetch the most beautiful lotus lanterns for her. If she can't get out, the mother and concubine will be so disappointed."
When the Holy Emperor heard about Concubine Xian, he was stunned. But when he caught a glimpse of the expressions of Qi Yan and Ling Yutong from the corner of his eye, he immediately turned cold and scolded Zhou Luoyu: "Stop talking so much! Go and stay outside the palace! You will be banned for this month."
Don’t miss a day.”
"Ah?" Zhou Luoyu had a grimace on his face, but he was not afraid at all.
Ling Yutong saw all this in his eyes, and his heart felt cold.
She had long heard that His Majesty favored the second prince because of Concubine Xian. But she never expected that His Majesty could favor him to such an extent! When Concubine Xian was not mentioned just now, the anger on His Majesty's face was quite real. Now that Concubine Xian was mentioned,
, seems to have a harsh tone, but in fact it is laissez-faire!
Zhou Luoyu left the palace unwillingly and glared at Qi Yan unabashedly, with a hint of "just wait and see" in his eyes.
Without Zhou Luoyu in the hall, Ling Yutong immediately bowed again and said that he would spare Lu He's life temporarily.
At this time, Lu He, who was unconscious on the ground, was awakened by a basin of cold water. Just as he raised his eyes in shock, he heard Ling Yutong's words.
A trace of doubt flashed in her eyes, would Ling Yutong plead for her? Maybe he wanted to torture her in private!
If so, she would rather die with a stick than be humiliated by the Qi family!
Lu He crawled hard, wanting to tell the Holy One that she would rather die. But Ling Yutong had already caught her awake with his peripheral vision, and immediately stuffed a cloth dumpling into her mouth, knelt down and said to the Holy One: "This Lu He is carrying a burden
In terms of martial arts, if you get excited and commit suicide as soon as you wake up, then all your efforts in catching her will be wasted. I hope that your Majesty will not blame me for taking action suddenly."
Lu He's eyes widened immediately!
Who said she was going to commit suicide! Even if she died, she would have the Qi family to support her, and she would never die in the hands of the Qi family!
Unexpectedly, the Holy Lord glanced at her and nodded slightly: "Miss Ling is right. Since you are asking for her life, then keep her for now. But the punishment of sticks is unavoidable. Drag her out and give her twenty spanks."
Serve as a warning to others.”
Lu He was dragged out, and the sound of wooden boards was soon heard outside. The sound was dull and terrifying.
Ling Yutong lowered his head and said nothing.
Qi Yan didn't speak a word, quietly waiting for the Holy Lord's final decision.
"I didn't keep you in the palace to be lynched. Since I promised you to investigate the Qi family's affairs, I will definitely investigate. After this incident, you are in the palace, and I have to ensure your safety.
"
"Good luck, I'll send two palace maids to follow them. From now on, their scope of activities will no longer be limited to the palace. As long as they don't offend the nobles, they can just treat them as staying in the palace."
The Holy Spirit has lifted their ban!
Ling Yutong's eyes lit up, but her happiness only lasted a moment. She saw Eunuch Xifu, a man and a woman, who was beside the emperor.
The palace maid saluted her: "I have met Miss Ling. My name is Songyue."
Another guard saluted Qi Yan: "I have met Mr. Qi, my name is Lai Che."
The Holy Emperor raised his hands to them: "Are you still satisfied?"
Ling Yutong and Qi Yan looked at each other and shook their heads. Now, they are not dissatisfied.
A look of satisfaction flashed across the Holy Emperor's eyes. He stood up and said, "Then just stay in the palace and recuperate. They will take care of your daily life. Don't run around in the palace and bump into the nobles."
The last four words are pronounced with special emphasis, and it is self-evident who it refers to.
After the saint and his entourage left, Zhou Luoyu was naturally taken away. After the imperial doctor left the ointment, he was unwilling to stay for a long time. In the palace, Ling Yutong and Qi Yan stared at the two newly arrived guards and maids, speechless for a moment.
.
Although the Holy One loosened their words and lifted their ban, isn't it true that one Songyue and the other Lai Che were under surveillance in all directions without blind spots?
Ling Yutong let out a breath and heard the sound of playing boards outside gradually stopping.
She raised her head and told Songyue: "Go to the door and see how Lu He is doing. If her torture is over, bring her over."
I originally wanted to separate them one by one, but unexpectedly, Lai Che actually took the initiative to salute them and said: "Twenty planks will be executed very quickly. Song Yue alone may not be able to support Lu He, so I'll go too."
Ling Yutong's eyes flashed, here comes Che...
However, people have taken the initiative to request, and they have no reason to extrapolate.
Qi Yan nodded slightly, watched the two of them walk out of the palace door and closed it. He met Ling Yutong's confused eyes and whispered: "Lai Che, I helped him once. There are some small things, so you don't need to avoid him."
Ling Yutong suddenly understood, no wonder Lai Che was so knowledgeable.
The two quickly brought Lu He. Before Ling Yutong exchanged a few words with Qi Yan, he saw the beaten and bloody Lu He. The injuries on her body were not treated at all, and she was dragged and beaten again.
, even an iron man cannot bear such an injury.
At this moment, Lu He's lips were pale without a trace of blood, but when Ling Yutong approached, her eyes showed wariness and unyielding, and she whispered: "Don't think you can hold me down like this, no matter what your ability, just use it
, I will never die at the hands of your Qi family."
Ling Yutong raised his eyebrows and said sincerely: "You are quite perseverant."
"I know that there is a feeling of great hatred in my heart, especially when the enemy is clearly right in front of you, but it is difficult for you to get revenge, so you will have to give up."
With a soft voice, she slowly knelt down, took the ointment, unscrewed it, and applied it to Lu He's shoulder blade that was pierced by the wire.
Song Yue couldn't help but said: "Miss Ling, that's a rare medicine for injuries from Tai Hospital. I only left one bottle for you..."
Ling Yutong's fingers didn't pause at all.
"Since it is a medicine for wounds, it must be used after it is made."
The moment the medicine was applied to the wound, Lu He couldn't help but hiss in pain. She trembled and stared at Ling Yutong: "Don't be disgusting here. I don't believe a single bit of the kindness of your Qi family."
