MTL - The Legitimate Daughter Returns: The Real Daughter is Reborn

Chapter 377: Sharing Your Majesty’s Worries

Jinluan Palace fell into deathly silence.

Eunuch Wan returned to Emperor Jianwen and stood with his head bowed without saying a word.

 “What do you think about this matter?”

 Emperor Jianwen suddenly spoke up.

　　　He did not mention anyone by name, but there was no one else besides Wan Gonggong.

When Wan Gonggong was in a dilemma and didn’t know how to answer, he heard a sound from outside.

Soon, a little **** ran over and whispered something in the ear of Wan Gonggong.

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Prince Jin is here.”

"Why is he here?"

Emperor Jianwen was slightly startled. If the other princes were coming, he wouldn't be so surprised, but Xiao Shengyu was different.

 Xiao Shengyu didn't like coming to see him.

 Emperor Jianwen knew this very well.

 “Let him in.”

"yes."

Eunuch Wan waved his hand and did not let the young **** go. Instead, he personally invited Xiao Shengyu to come in.

 Seeing the Jinluan Palace, Xiao Shengyu knew that he must have arrived a step too late.

 “Are you here to plead for Lao Liu?”

Emperor Jianwen's tone was calm, but not as cold as before.

 Among the several children, Xiao Shengyu is undoubtedly his favorite.

When the Queen was still alive, the relationship between Emperor Jianwen and Xiao Shengyu was not as cold as it is now. In other words, the few people at that time looked like ordinary people.

 Parents are loving and sons are filial.

Eunuch Wan couldn’t help but think of the year when the queen died, Xiao Shengyu made a big fuss in the imperial study room and almost burned down the palace where the queen lived.

That matter was suppressed by Emperor Jianwen, and the palace was abandoned.

 “I have no such intention.”

Xiao Shengyu's tone was equally cold, and his posture was clearly respectful, but no one could feel the hint of respect.

Emperor Jianwen was not angry, "Then what are you doing?"

 He was in a pretty good mood.

 “I have something to show your Majesty.”

Xiao Shengyu took out a scroll from his sleeve, and Eunuch Wan took it and handed it to Emperor Jianwen.

 The first time he saw the scroll, Emperor Jianwen's expression changed.

Eunuch Wan was a little confused and glanced at the scroll. Suddenly, his expression changed.

 But he was quickly suppressed by Wan Gonggong.

Emperor Jianwen stretched out his hand. Eunuch Wan was so close that he could clearly see Emperor Jianwen's trembling fingertips.

Eunuch Wan felt that the scroll in his hand was getting hotter and hotter.

 It wasn’t until Emperor Jianwen took the scroll that Wan Gonggong breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

 “Where did you find it?”

 Emperor Jianwen did not rush to open the scroll, but looked at Xiao Shengyu and asked.

Xiao Shengyu stood on the spot wearing black clothes and said, "Yangzhou."

Yangzhou again?

Eunuch Wan was murmuring in his heart.

 But Emperor Jianwen had no reaction. He seemed to have thought of something.

　　Opening the scroll, there were several lines of words written on it. Emperor Jianwen read them word by word, and after a while, he put the scroll on the table.

“Co-authorship is not a request for mercy, but a gift to me with evidence.”

Emperor Jianwen's reaction was a little different from what Wan Gonggong thought. He lowered his head and glanced at Emperor Jianwen cautiously.

 His eyes fell on the scroll again.

From Eunuch Wan’s point of view, he couldn’t clearly see what was written in the scroll, but at a glance, Eunuch Wan could still recognize that the writing on the scroll was not that of the person he was thinking of.

After contacting Emperor Jianwen again, Wan Gonggong thought for a while and still felt that the scroll was related to King An's affairs.

“It is what I should do to share your Majesty’s worries.”

As soon as these words came out, both Emperor Jianwen and Eunuch Wan were stunned for a moment.

 When the master and servant came to their senses, Xiao Shengyu had already left.

Eunuch Wan came to his senses and said, "Your Majesty, please..."

  “No need.”

Emperor Jianwen stared at the scroll in his hand for a moment, "Go and forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow, there is no rush now."

"yes."

Seeing Emperor Jianwen stand up, Wan Gonggong quickly stepped forward and supported Emperor Jianwen.

 Early the next morning, the news of King An's arrest spread.

 Some say that King An contradicted Emperor Jianwen, others say that King An rebelled...

 In short, without exception, it is the kind of thing that will cause anger.

Su Leyun accompanied Xiang Lingling and once again received treatment from Mr. Zhang.

 “My head hurts a little.”

Xiang Lingling frowned, but fortunately the pain was not unbearable.

 Lao Zhang took off the silver needles one by one, his expression much more relaxed than last time.

"I have already given the prescription to the maid. You should drink it once a day in the morning and evening. I will come back to administer the acupuncture in five days."

Xiang Lingling looked slightly startled, "Mr. Zhang, what do you mean..."

“The acupuncture method this time has been improved and is more suitable for your eye disease.”

 “You mean, can my eyes get better?”

“It depends on the follow-up situation. If there is no effect after three injections, we have to find another way.”

 Lao Zhang gave a few instructions, took his things and left.

 In the next few days, he will have to think about the poison.

Xiang Lingling's eyes were still covered by black cloth, but from the curvature of the corners of her mouth, it was not difficult to see her joy.

 “You can just take care of yourself and be treated with peace of mind.”

Su Leyun said.

 He nodded to Lingling, and as if he thought of something, he said, "Cousin, my grandma hasn't caused any trouble in the past few days."

"yes."

"That…"

Su Leyun held Xiang Lingling's hand, patted it a few times, and signaled to Xiang Lingling.

 It has been making trouble for so many days and suddenly it stopped. It is naturally impossible to say that there is no problem in this.

She has been stared at for a long time, and some clues have been noticed.

 “Just take care of yourself.”

Su Leyun stayed with Xiang Lingling for a while, then got up and left.

As soon as he left the house, he saw Mrs. Xiang poking her head out of her room, met her eyes, and hurriedly pretended not to care.

“Grandma, is there anything wrong with what you are eating these days?”

Su Leyun stepped forward and asked as if caring about the old lady.

He straightened his body to the old lady and said, "Just try to do it, there's no problem."

"Really? Or maybe there are servants who are not taking good care of me? How about I ask someone to replace the servants in Chaoyun Pavilion?"

 “Then…that’s no need.”

Mrs. Xiang's heart tightened, thinking that Su Leyun had seen something, but after carefully observing Su Leyun's expression, she saw nothing.

　　"Well, it's nothing, I'll leave first."

 “Well, let’s go back.”

 After Su Leyun left, Xiang Madam closed the door to block the outside view.

Su Leyun left Chaoyun Pavilion and turned around. Instead of returning to Chaohua Xiaozhu, he asked Cuiliu to say something and prepare the carriage to leave the city for a trip to Dabei Temple.

The carriage drove out of the city gate and headed in the direction of Dabei Temple.

 The founding emperor of the Dasheng Dynasty believed in Buddhism very much, so since the founding of the Dasheng Dynasty, there have been more and more temples. But it is not often that temples can last for a long time.

 There are dozens, if not hundreds, of large and small temples around the capital.

The ones with a really long history are Dabei Temple, Tianbao Temple and Longyue Temple.

However, among the three, the one with the most historical background is undoubtedly the Dabei Temple.
