After saying goodbye to Fu Heng, Wei Yingluo came to the elder brother's office.
Yong Qi was still awake on the bed, she waved away the maid, sat on the edge of the bed and looked at him for a while, then suddenly said, "Open your eyes."
Yong Qi really opened his eyes and smiled weakly: "Sure enough, you can't fool Concubine Ling."
Wei Yingluo: "Why are you pretending to be asleep?"
"My wife and concubine came to cry, and Huang Ama's concubine also came to cry. I was about to wake up, and they should have cried so much." Yong Qi sighed, seeing her crying and laughing, and said hurriedly, "I know that your mother will not cry, don't let me down."
Wei Yingluo blinked, trying not to let the tears fall: "Yongqi, I'm sorry."
Yong Qi smiled: "Mr. Concubine, it was an accident."
Yingluo: "No, this is definitely not an accident, someone wanted to—"
However, Yongqi interrupted her abruptly: "Mr. Concubine, I said, this is an accident, and that's it!"
Previously, Wei Yingluo thought he didn't know anything, but now that he interrupted, Wei Yingluo reacted... Maybe, he already knew everything.
"... This leg is useless." Yong Qi looked at her right leg and said calmly, "No matter how much Huang Ama loves me, in the end, he has to take care of the royal family. Who is it for? If I investigate further, my brother will be implicated sooner or later... "
You really understand everything.
Wei Yingluo stared at him blankly. He didn't cry, but she couldn't help but want to cry for him.
"Concubine Ling." Yong Qi suddenly looked up at her and said softly, "Can you hug me?"
Without any hesitation, Wei Yingluo stepped forward and gently embraced him.
He rested his head on her shoulder. In this posture, she couldn't see his face, couldn't see his expression at the moment, only felt a little hot on his shoulders, as if there was warm liquid flowing on his head.
"Emian said, let me be an honest and kind person, but just now, when I was lying on the bed and couldn't move, I was full of hatred, hating the person who harmed me, hating the few who could walk normally My brother." Yong Qi choked in a low voice, "... I can't take revenge, I can't trace it, and if I continue to investigate, Huang Ama will lose more than one of my sons."
"It's alright, it's alright, you'll be fine." Wei Yingluo hugged him tightly, tears rolling in her eyes, but she couldn't quench her anger.
You personally killed your sibling, the culprit, are you having trouble sleeping or eating now
In another house of Brother's house, Yongxuan was walking around anxiously. A eunuch came in from outside with a food box in his hand. The food box was full of his favorite dishes, but he had no appetite. , rushed over and said, "Have you heard, why did Huang Ama detain all the elder brothers in the palace?"
Faithfully, he said: "This..."
"Huang Ama must be suspicious of something!" Yongxuan was anxious for a while, "What should I do, what should I do..."
Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside, Yongxuan hurriedly shut his mouth, listened for a while, then opened the door cautiously, and said with a sigh of relief, "Aunt Zhen, did the Queen Mother ask you to come?"
Zhen'er smiled slightly, and lifted her right hand upwards, even with a food box in her hand: "With such a big thing happening today, my brother must not have a good meal, the empress was worried about you, and ordered the servant to bring you some food. Food and wine, pad your stomach."
After saying that, Zhao Jinzhong gave a wink, and Jinzhong left quietly, leaving only the two of them in the room.
Yongxun didn't care too much, and said to Zhen'er who prepared the dishes for him by himself, "Did you say when I can go back to the palace?"
The chopsticks in Zhen'er's hand stopped, and she raised her head to meet his expectant gaze: "Fourth elder brother, it is the emperor's order to let all elder brothers stay in the Forbidden City, please be patient."
"Then how long do I have to wait!" Yongxuan slapped the table, feeling it was inappropriate, and sat down slowly, "Mother Huang'er is worried about me, and I'm still mad at her, it's really inappropriate, please go back and tell Huang'e Mother, I won't lose my temper, I must wait."
For the time being, he can't help but look at the dishes on the table. The meat and vegetables are all available, and the most rare thing is that everything is done carefully. He couldn't help but soften his eyes: "Huang E Niang still remembers my favorite food. Wine and wine for the Lantern Festival."
Zhener handed him a pair of clean chopsticks: "The Queen Mother is thinking of you."
"I always blame Huang E-niang for being biased, but she is thinking about me." Yongxuan's face was full of joy, "Do you remember, when I was a child, my throat was thin and I couldn't swallow the Lantern Festival, so Huang E-niang asked you to come down in person. Chef, make it a little smaller than the usual Lantern Festival..."
On the table is such a bowl of rice dumplings made with wine. The bowl is small, and the rice balls are also small, like pearls, and sprinkled with a piece of golden osmanthus candy, exuding a sweet aroma of wine.
"After so many years, I still like your craftsmanship the most." Yong Xuan sighed with emotion, picked up a dumpling with chopsticks, and just brought it to his mouth, Zhen'er on the opposite side suddenly shouted: "Wait!"
a thud—
The dumplings on the chopsticks fell and fell into the bowl, splashing hot soup.
A few drops of hot soup splashed on Yongxun's face, he raised his sleeves and wiped his face, some doubts and some dissatisfaction: "What's wrong?"
Zhen'er sighed deliberately, and said with a face that couldn't bear it: "Brother, if you are full with wine and fermented Lantern Festival, let's use other things first. This duck is good, you can try it."
Although Yongxuan has always been rough, not a meticulous person, but she has done so clearly, even if she is such a rough person, she can't help but become suspicious, put down her chopsticks and said, "Aunt Zhen, what's wrong?"
Zhen'er looked at him, and there was a trace of tears in her eyes. After a while, she said, "Brother, if you don't like this one, let's change it."
Yongxuan couldn't eat anymore, got up quickly, walked to her, pressed her shoulder and said, "Aunt Zhen, tell the truth, what's wrong?"
Zhener stopped talking for a while, then suddenly fell to her knees with a plop, and she burst into tears: "Fourth Brother, this servant can't bear it, the servant really can't bear it!"
Yongxuan was shocked and frightened, and trembled: "What can't you bear, what the hell are you...what do you want to do to me?"
Zhen'er wiped away her tears, and turned her eyes to the bowl of rice dumplings on the table: "This Lantern Festival contains highly poisonous poison, so it's useless..."
"What did you say?" Yongxun grabbed her arm, lifted her from the ground, and said angrily, "You mean Erniang... No! I don't believe it!"
Zhen'er looked at him with pity: "Without the fifth brother and then you, who else is the opponent of the 12th brother?"
As the sky darkened, Yongxuan's legs became weak, and he stumbled down on the chair, raised his hands to cover his face, anger and fear overflowed from his fingers: "The Queen Mother wants to kill me, she... she actually wants to kill me. !"
How could he be willing to sit still like this, and sat on the chair for a moment in despair, Yongxuan suddenly raised his head and said fiercely: "No, I'm going to see Huang Ama!"
