Chapter 189: Secret

Wei Yan's expression froze slightly, and he asked instead of answering: "Why did Miss Ling ask that?"

Ling Jingshu's voice was slow and clear: "Because my intuition tells me that what you just said is not the whole truth."

If it was just because of King Yan, why did Wei Yan look so weird and nervous that day? There must be some secret to this!

Wei Yan obviously didn't want to talk in depth, so he said evasively: "In short, the situation in the palace is complicated. You just need to be more careful when you enter the palace to see Empress Xu in the future."

Ling Jingshu's heart stirred quietly, and she vaguely had a terrifying suspicion: "Mr. Wei, you are so hesitant to say it clearly, is it because this matter has something to do with you?"

Wei Yan's body froze, his expression tensed, but his eyes flashed with caution, and his voice suddenly became colder: "Miss Ling is asking this, don't you think it's too abrupt and rude to talk about it?"

Sure enough, it has something to do with him!

Ling Jingshu's heart sank, but she didn't reveal anything on her face: "It's okay if I'm rude once. You reminded me time and time again to be careful about Queen Xu, which shows that you also know very well in your heart that Queen Xu must be angry with me for some reason. He might take action against me one day. If it’s because of you, wouldn’t I be implicated? I can’t even ask a few questions.”

Wei Yan was silent, his handsome face tensed up, which seemed a bit unspeakable.

Could it be...that it was really what she thought? !

Ling Jingshu knew that this guess was ridiculous, but looking at Wei Yan's expression at this time, the ridiculous idea in her heart became clearer.

"Mr. Wei, Queen Xu... she treats you..."

How should I say it?

Ling Jingshu asked vaguely, but Wei Yan understood it effortlessly.

The immediate reaction was denial.

It was the greatest humiliation in his life for a dignified, seven-foot-tall man to be obsessed with by a powerful woman in her forties. He has been trying his best to hide it, and even his eldest sister does not know. How could you let a boudoir girl know?

What's more, the other party is still Ling Jingshu...

Never admit this!

Wei Yan's eyes were complicated, and his expression was slightly distorted. The sentence he had originally planned to say, "Nothing happened," somehow turned into: "I asked you about your secret before, but you refused to reveal even a word. Now you have Come and ask me like this. You should know the principle of not doing to others what you don’t want others to do to you.”

His words were cold and cold, showing a coldness that would alienate others from thousands of miles away.

The color on Ling Jingshu's face quickly faded.

It was not because of Wei Yan's sarcastic remarks, but because Wei Yan did not refute.

Her guess turned out to be true!

Queen Xu actually has ulterior motives for Wei Yan!

"How could she have such dirty thoughts after being a member of the First Palace?" Ling Jingshu was so shaken that she spoke in a messy manner: "Isn't she afraid that the emperor will notice it? If the emperor knew about it, how could he spare her? !”

Wei Yan twitched his lips coldly: "The emperor is old, lacks energy, and has neglected government affairs. In the past few years, most of his thoughts have been on practicing Taoism and alchemy, and he only thinks about becoming an immortal and immortal as soon as possible. How can he have any leisure time? Ask about the harem. Queen Xu’s Jiaofang Palace will change a group of servants every once in a while, and this matter is kept secret in the palace. "

As the saying goes, like mother, like daughter. Princess Changping's wantonness and wantonness obviously also learned from Queen Xu.

Ling Jingshu opened her mouth, but for a moment she didn't know what to say.

Want to comfort him? But there is really no comfort in this kind of thing.

The other party is the powerful Empress Xu, but she only secretly covets her and does not really "take action" on Wei Yan... What else can Wei Yan do besides holding back?

Wei Yan has never married, so I guess it must have something to do with Empress Xu's secret obstruction!

Wei Yan didn't know what past events he remembered, and a gloomy and hateful light flashed in his eyes: "Back then, Empress Xu wanted to marry me because she was tempted. If I really married that young lady from a branch of the Xu family, I would completely It fell into the hands of the Xu family, so I refused without hesitation and made a lifelong vow not to marry."

"Because of this, I was able to preserve myself."

Being coveted is obviously not a pleasant memory.

Wei Yan's face was very ugly. He paused for a moment before continuing: "Later, I founded the Huichun Hall. My medical skills became increasingly sophisticated and I gained a lot of fame. I began to diagnose the emperor and the prince's pulse, and Empress Xu often asked me to go there. Please have peace of mind. I have been in and out of Jiaofang Palace a lot, and I have become familiar with Luzhu, the female official in Jiaofang Palace.”

Green beads...

Ling Jingshu silently recited two words in her heart. Just hearing the name, a picture of a pretty and lovely slim woman seemed to appear in front of her eyes.

Wei Yan felt a little sad when he mentioned this name that he had not mentioned for a long time: "Lv Zhu is the most useful female official around Queen Xu. She has a lively and cheerful temperament. Every time she meets me, she always talks to me more."

"I have no other thoughts about her, I just think she has a pleasant temperament, and I occasionally chat with her. The eldest sister is interested and wants to ask Queen Xu to grant me the green pearl in marriage, but I naturally refuse. But I didn’t expect that Queen Xu knew about this and had evil thoughts in her heart. "

Ling Jingshu's heart trembled, and she subconsciously asked, "What happened next?"

Wei Yan's voice was low: "Later, Luzhu was sent out of the palace because he was 'suffering from a serious disease'. He died within half a year."

You don’t need to ask too much to know that Empress Xu is secretly responsible for this matter.

A young and lively life died in a single thought of Queen Xu.

Just like her in her previous life!

Ling Jingshu's face turned pale and her lips were tightly pursed.

Wei Yan looked at Ling Jingshu deeply: "I have never mentioned these things to anyone. I told you today because I hope you can understand Empress Xu's methods. Her sudden "favor" to you is definitely not goodwill. You must remember to be careful!"

Ling Jingshu nodded at first, then suddenly came to her senses and widened her eyes in surprise: "You mean, Empress Xu will be jealous of me because of you and then kill me? But...but you and I only have contact because of Xiao's illness, and there is no other intersection! How could she have such a misunderstanding!"

Seeing Ling Jingshu's unbelievable look, Wei Yan was embarrassed for a rare time, and whispered: "In order to avoid suspicion, I never have contact with girls in the boudoir. Occasionally, when I meet a girl because of treating patients, I basically don't talk. Although you and I don't have close contact, for people who are familiar with my temper, this is already considered to be particularly close."

Ling Jingshu: "..."

Wei Yan's embarrassment made her feel awkward and uncomfortable. It seems like the two of them really have some ambiguous relationship...
