When Cui Lingjing came in, Xue Ya stood at the door wearing a robe. He bowed stiffly to Cui Lingjing. Cui Lingjing must have just finished taking a bath. He drank two glasses of wine at today's banquet, but he still smelled of medicine.

Even thicker. When he entered the hall, he didn't look at Xue Ya and went straight to the inner hall.

Xue Ya looked in the direction of the inner hall, wanting to escape, but there was a group of people guarding the hall, and he couldn't escape. While they were in a stalemate, Cui Lingjing's voice came from the inner hall.

"Are you dead? Why don't you come in?"

The chief eunuch at the palace gate immediately said to Xue Ya: "Your Majesty is calling you, why don't you go quickly."

Xue Ya was not willing to go in, but the eunuch was staring at him and trying to catch him if he didn't go in. Xue Ya had no choice but to go inside to see Cui Lingjing.

Cui Lingjing was sitting by the bed, with an unhappy expression on her feminine face, "Broken leg? Walk so slowly, roll over here."

Xue Ya lowered his head and walked towards the bed, but when he was approaching the bed, he stopped and said, "Your Majesty, I... I... don't feel well."

"Come here." Cui Lingjing simply listened to what Xue Ya said.

Xue Ya raised his eyes and glanced at Cui Lingjing. When he saw the other person looking directly at him, he was so frightened that he lowered his head again.

Cui Lingjing seemed to have lost patience, and her tone was even more unkind than before, even revealing murderous intent, "I don't want to say it a third time."

Xue Ya was in a stalemate for a while, then slowly moved to the bed. As soon as he passed by, she was pulled to sit on the bed. The closer she was to Cui Lingjing, the stronger the smell of the medicine she smelled. Xue Ya was bought by the late emperor from Hongyue Tower

When he came out, the late emperor often smelled of medicine, but it didn't seem to be as strong as Cui Lingjing's.

Obviously when Cui Lingjing discovered the affair between him and He Xulan, Cui Lingjing was still in good health.

"Are you happy that I will make you my concubine tonight?" Cui Lingjing seemed to be in a better mood again.

Xue Ya didn't dare to say anything bad, so she could only nodded lightly.

Cui Lingjing hugged Xue Ya's shoulders and smiled lowly, "I remember that when you first entered the palace, you were punished by me, but you still had the courage to seduce me and used some despicable methods." He seemed to be lost in memories, and his voice changed.

Qing said, "But when you turn around, you are with Ya's father. He even dares not to care about anything for you. But it doesn't matter, you are with me now."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly came close to Xue Ya's face. Xue Ya immediately ducked back, but Cui Lingjing hugged him tightly. During the entanglement, Xue Ya was pressed on the bed, and Cui Lingjing got closer and closer to him, watching the other party's

When his lips were about to fall, he tried his best to turn his face away. At the same time, Cui Lingjing suddenly raised her hands to cover her chest. Her face became paler and whiter, her breathing became rapid, and then she fell on Xue Ya.

Xue Ya was suddenly pressed down by a heavy body. She was stunned for a while, and then she quickly called out, "Come, your Majesty is not well!"

Cui Lingjing fell ill. After a while, all the imperial doctors from the imperial hospital rushed over. Even Yin Qingxuan, who was in the mansion, rushed into the palace. Together with the palace servants, they crowded the inner hall. Xue Ya was still wearing her clothes

That robe, he sat on the chair and looked at the bed uneasily.

An imperial doctor came over and asked Xue Ya what happened when Cui Lingjing fell ill. Xue Ya had no nerve to say that Cui Lingjing had to do what he did to her before she fainted. She only vaguely said: "Your Majesty was talking and suddenly fell ill."

After hearing this, the imperial doctor seemed to feel strange and asked again, "Are you just talking? Your Majesty's qi and blood are too full, and your body cannot bear it, leading to sudden illness."

Hearing the words "excessive qi and blood", Xue Ya was so embarrassed that she didn't know where to look, "This... I don't know."

It was so embarrassing that his mouth was dry. He stood up and wanted to get a glass of water, but he met Yin Qingxuan's eyes. Yin Qingxuan looked at him thoughtfully and scanned him with his eyes, as if he had already guessed.

What were he and Cui Lingjing doing before leaving?

Although nothing really happened, Xue Ya still turned away with a guilty conscience and stretched out her hands to tighten her robe.

The imperial doctor wanted to treat Cui Lingjing here. Xueya felt sleepy and went to sleep in the side hall. When she woke up the next day, she found that Yin Qingxuan was still there.

Cui Lingjing has woken up, but his face is uglier than yesterday. He is having breakfast, and Yin Qingxuan is accompanying him. Xue Ya comes over, and the eunuch asks someone to add a pair of bowls and chopsticks.

Xue Ya didn't want to sit down at first, but Cui Lingjing glanced over at him, so he had to sit down next to him. He hardly raised his head during the whole meal, and he occasionally heard Yin Qingxuan and Cui Lingjing talking.

They seemed to be talking about the succession, but as they were talking, Cui Lingjing suddenly mentioned him.

"Call those people into the palace and show the noble concubine." Cui Lingjing said.

Yin Qingxuan frowned, "The imperial concubine doesn't understand the affairs of the previous dynasty, how can she decide?"

Cui Lingjing suddenly grabbed Xue Ya's hand on the table, "It doesn't matter whether you understand or not. Anyway, the child is going to be adopted in his name, and it's best if he likes it."

Xue Ya was shaken suddenly and the spoon fell into the bowl. He looked at Cui Lingjing and then at Yin Qingxuan. Although he didn't understand what they were talking about, he could hear something wrong, "The adoption is in my name? This

…”

"You can't give birth to a child, wouldn't it be good for the adoption to be in your name?" Cui Lingjing's tone was not to discuss with others. After dismissing Xueya in one sentence, he looked at Yin Qingxuan, his tone was relaxed, but what he said was not like this.

, "Xiang Yin, you won't be against me like that unlucky old guy yesterday, right?"

These words made Xue Ya stunned. He felt that Cui Lingjing was not only physically ill, but also mentally ill. Cui Lingjing was crazy, and she was so crazy that she did the things she did now.

Xue Ya couldn't help but think about her dream about He Xulan's failed rebellion. Cui Lingjing was so crazy. How could He Xulan fail in his rebellion? Could it be that the emperor really has God's blessing?

Yin Qingxuan put down the chopsticks in his hand, took the silk handkerchief and wiped his lips clean, then raised his eyes and said to Cui Lingjing: "Since Your Majesty has already made the decision, what's the point of the humble minister's objection."

Upon hearing this, Cui Lingjing turned to Xue Ya and smiled: "You see he is angry."

Xue Ya didn't want to get involved in their affairs, so he lowered his head and continued to drink his porridge. However, while drinking the porridge, he secretly pulled his hand out, but was immediately discovered by Cui Lingjing. Cui Lingjing's expression instantly became extremely terrifying, and she stared at Xue Ya,

It felt like he was about to tear the person in front of him into pieces at any moment.

Although Xue Ya still lowered her head, she felt something was wrong in the atmosphere, so she immediately stopped her movements and let Cui Lingjing hold her hand.

Yin Qingxuan silently took in this scene.

The next day, Xue Ya actually saw the children who were adopted as princes by Cui Lingjing. It would not be entirely appropriate to refer to them as children. The oldest among them was already fourteen years old, and Cui Lingjing had not yet passed her twentieth birthday.

The fourteen-year-old boy is called Cui Dai, and he is the posthumous son of Cui Lingjing's late uncle. In terms of blood relationship, he is Cui Lingjing's closest nephew, and he is also the most promising future prince among the officials in the court.

Although Cui Dai is closest to Cui Lingjing in terms of blood relationship, there is no similarity in appearance. Cui Lingjing has a feminine and beautiful face, while Cui Dai has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looks very honest and honest.

Although he was choosing the future heir to the throne, Cui Lingjing was lazy and uninterested. It wasn't until the eunuch carefully reminded him several times that he sat up straight. But the next moment, he hugged Xue Ya who was standing next to him.

into one's arms.

There was a child of several years old below. Xue Ya blushed at Cui Lingjing's actions and tried to break away in a panic, "Your Majesty, we are choosing the prince now."

"It's up to you to choose your son." Cui Lingjing ignored Xue Ya's struggle and buried her face in his neck. As soon as she made this move, the expression on the face of the eunuch next to her became indescribable.

Cui Lingjing could be so indifferent, but Xue Ya couldn't. At the same time, he was thinking about He Xulan. He thought that if the future prince was younger, the threat to He Xulan would naturally be smaller, so he hesitated and pointed at his age.

A child only three years old.

"I think he's pretty good."

Cui Lingjing turned her face slightly and glanced in the direction Xue Ya pointed. The eunuch beside her immediately said, "Your Majesty."

"What do you think of him?" Cui Lingjing ignored the eunuch and only said to Xueya.

Xue Ya stiffened her body and nodded. Although he pointed at someone, he didn't have much hope in his heart. How could Cui Lingjing really listen to him? He was just teasing him on purpose.

"Then let him." Cui Lingjing let go of Xue Ya, glanced at the eunuch, and said, "Pass the message, I have chosen the future prince. The prince will be called Yuan Si, and he will be raised by the imperial concubine."

In less than half a day, Xue Ya got a new son, a three-year-old son.

Yuan Si is the child of a distant relative of Cui Lingjing. It can be said that he came here to collect the number of people, but no one expected that he would be selected, including himself. Knowing that he could not go home again, Yuan Si cried all day long.

The wailing sound passed through the wall and spread from the east side hall of Beauty Pavilion to the main hall, keeping Xue Ya awake all night.

The next day, Yuan Si continued to cry. When Xue Ya was having breakfast, she couldn't bear it anymore and said to Cui Lingjing: "Your Majesty, the prince is young, so he should live in the East Palace first. I heard that the nuns in the East Palace are very good at taking care of him."

child."

Cui Lingjing now comes to the Beauty Pavilion to eat every day, but he doesn't eat much and drinks a large bowl of medicine after every meal. Faced with Xueya's request, Cui Lingjing coldly said, "No."

Three days later, Yuan Si finally stopped crying so much. Xue Ya was just about to have a good night's sleep when she was woken up by the palace servants who said that Cui Lingjing wanted to take him and the prince to see the newly built temple.

That temple was built for Xueya by Cui Lingjing at the Little Grand Palace Banquet. Because Cui Lingjing ordered that it must be built within half a month, the temple was renovated from a failed temple. It only took a few days.

By that time, the temple had begun to take shape and looked very luxurious and grand, but the golden bodies of Xue Ya and others had not yet been repaired.

Although the golden body has not been repaired, there is a portrait of Xue Ya dressed up on New Year's Eve in the main hall of the temple. There is an incense burner in front of it. Every worker must kneel down and worship the portrait sincerely before construction.

Xue Ya looked at the painting, and then at the splendid, already luxurious temple, and the ominous feeling in her heart grew stronger and stronger. This ominous feeling was confirmed on the way back to the palace.

"The people are in dire straits, the demon concubine is in power, and our Li Dynasty will perish!"

The person who said this was an old scholar. He suddenly rushed out from the kneeling people. Although the surrounding imperial guards quickly stopped him, they did not block his mouth. This was heard by Cui Lingjing in the carriage. Cui Lingjing pulled his lips and smiled, but

What he said was horrifying, "Someone, cut out his tongue and drop it on the city gate, so that the people can see the consequences of saying the wrong thing."

His words were so terrifying that they scared Yuan Si to tears, who finally stopped crying. When Xue Ya noticed Cui Lingjing's eyes turning slightly and falling on Yuan Si, she immediately covered Yuan Si's lips.

Cui Lingjing just closed her eyes when the cry was reduced to whimpering. When she left the palace, Cui Lingjing's face became paler and paler, and her vision in the carriage was dim. He leaned against the wall of the carriage, motionless, as if he had died.

Xue Ya's temple was built within half a month, and a year passed in between. However, there was no New Year atmosphere in the palace at all, because on the day of the New Year, Cui Lingjing was sick all day and did not even get out of bed. People in the palace were panicked.

, even Xue Ya heard someone in the palace saying that Cui Lingjing was going to die.

Because everyone thought Cui Lingjing was going to die, Yuan Si's life in the palace was getting better and better, including Yuan Si's nominal mother-in-law——

Snow bud.

A few days after the temple was repaired, Kangwu County rebelled.

It was late at night when the news of the rebellion reached the capital. Yin Qingxuan hurriedly entered the palace after receiving the news, but the palace attendant who led him did not lead him to the imperial study room where court affairs were discussed, but to the bedroom of the Beauty Pavilion.

Cui Lingjing is lying on Xue Ya's lap, with her long hair loose and wearing only pajamas. Xue Ya is also dressed in the same way. Both of them have a female appearance, and when they are leaning together, they look a bit like twin flowers.

.

"Prime Minister Yin is here." Cui Lingjing coughed twice after saying a word. His face was abnormally flushed, as if he had a fever. "Do you know about the rebellion of He Xulan and Yi Yefeng?"

Yin Qingxuan did not answer directly, but said: "Please leave me temporarily."
