Chapter 53 The emperor also has feelings, but in fact he has good intentions
Zhan Lingze understands what the emperor means. If he continues to cultivate his own power with big moves, it will definitely attract the attention of other princes and forces. How can they not persecute themselves? Even if the emperor intends to save himself, I'm afraid there will be nothing he can do at that time! Yes, hiding the sharpness and braking statically is the safest strategy!
"Your Majesty, I know it's wrong..."
Zhan Lingze has become full of guilt now. If the emperor hadn't told him all this today, he would have been in danger in the future. How could such a big ambition not attract the attention of others?
"It doesn't matter... I finally said this secret that has been hidden in my heart for 25 years today, and there is a lack of burden in my heart, but my health is getting worse and worse, but I don't know if I can hear you call me father!"
The emperor looked at Zhan Lingze expectantly, but hoped that he would call out those two words, and he was satisfied.
However, Zhan Lingze did not respond for a long time.
Although he can understand what his biological parents do, he still can't accept it for a while.
He really can't say it.
"Your Majesty, forgive me... I can't do it now..." Zhan Lingze's face was stubborn and ruthless.
The emperor's eyes finally faded, and he could also understand his son, which was too sudden for him.
"It seems that you hate me?"
I can't see any other feelings on the emperor's face except disappointment.
"No... I don't hate the emperor. If I were you, I would do the same..."
Zhan Lingze's expression was faint, and a strong sadness surged through his eyebrows, but he did not dare to look up at his father.
"Well, I won't force you anymore. I will give you some time. Presumably it will take some time for you to accept this fact. I will definitely wait for that day and hear you call me father..."
Although he is disappointed, he is also relieved. As long as his child does not hate himself, time will make him accept all this, and he will always get better!
"Thank you, Emperor... I still want to ask something!"
Zhan Lingze is no longer entangled in this matter, but today's purpose has not been achieved. Now that he is the emperor's blood, I don't know if he can spare Yan Ji's life for his own face.
"I know what you want to ask... You have never cared about women's affairs. Today, you came to beg me in person for that woman, which shows that her status in your heart is not low. And I just promised to help you, so I won't go down. I also believe in my emperor's vision! Don't worry, I won't blame her. After all, you are not wrong!"
"Your Majesty..." The gloom on Zhan Lingze's face suddenly dissipated, and his eyebrows were mixed with joy.
"I didn't cherish the person I loved at the beginning. Now you must not make the same mistake. You must treat her well... Don't live up to my hope for you!"
The emperor obviously entrusted his unfinished mission and task to his son at this time. He was actually an affectionate and righteous person in his heart, but in the end, he still lost his beloved. And now his son can desperately come and beg for himself, take responsibility for the mistakes he has made, and he is also a little comforting for what he loves.
Zhan Lingze suddenly had some worries. Although the emperor would let her go, what should she do with those rumors? If a woman suffers such a big insult and is still being talked about all day, she will definitely not be able to bear it. I don't know what those unpleasant words will look like. .
"If you are afraid that Miss Yan Ji will be wronged, you have to find out the spreader who spread rumors as soon as possible, and I will help you stop these rumors secretly. Don't worry... Don't forget that there is one victim of this rumor, and he will certainly not sit idly by!" The emperor saw Zhan Luze's thoughts and hurriedly comforted him.
Zhan Lingze suddenly realized when he heard this. Although the results he found were related to Baixuan, even if Baixuan had any intention, the old marquis was still there. How could he let something that damaged the declaration of the marquis's mansion happen?
"Yes, of course, the victim also has the marquis's mansion. The people in the marquis' mansion will definitely try their best to curb this rumor! The emperor is wise!"
For today's plan, we can only try to curb this rumor. There is no other way, as long as Yan Ji can be safe.
Zhan Lingze suddenly realized that it was late at night, and the emperor had to go to court tomorrow and had to go to bed.
He really can't stay any longer.
"Your Majesty, I know how to do it. My emperor, pay attention to the dragon body and go to bed quickly, and I will leave."
Zhan Lingze is respectful and salutes to the king and minister.
Well, the emperor still regards me as a superior emperor, not me as his father. That's all...
"Okay, you should also go back to rest! After a few days, you will set out with the national master to subdue the mythical beast. Look at some scenery and relax on the way..."
The emperor's opinion is obvious. Naturally, he let himself take Yan Ji with him to temporarily avoid the limelight of the rumors in the capital. By the way, the two can cultivate more feelings.
In fact, Zhan Lingze also had this intention for a long time. At that time, he had found that Yan Ji wanted to go with them, but the national teacher did not allow it. However, it was impossible for Yan Ji to give up. If he helped her, it would not be easy for the national teacher to stop her.
Zhan Lingze walked out of the emperor's bedroom and sighed.
When he came today, he was already prepared. Originally, the emperor was upset and was not sure enough to convince him that he might be punished, but he didn't expect to have an unexpected harvest.
I knew the mystery of my life and the emperor's idea of inheriting the throne, but in fact, this harvest did not make me too happy. It turned out that he also had special feelings for the emperor and knew that he was the best person to himself after the death of the old King Chang'an, but now he feels a little ridiculous after knowing that he is his son.
If he were not the emperor's biological son, he would not have been so good to himself for so many years.
However, in his opinion, the emperor's feelings for his mother are real, and Zhan Lingze understands everything from his eyes and expression.
Forget it, since God arranged all this, it means that this is God's will. Since the emperor intends to inherit, he does not have to spend too much effort to win over the power and manage everything. With the help of the emperor, there are more chances of winning.
But I suddenly knew this, but I didn't seem to have a goal to fight for.
After looking at the emperor's melancholy and painful look, he also learned that the throne was not as good as he thought. Perhaps if the emperor had not succeeded at the beginning and chose to go abroad with his mother, life would be happier than now.
Zhan Lingze did not go back to his house, but took the emperor's hand to the dark room of the palace.
The dark and humid dark room was originally related to the criminals, but now Si Kou Xunxiang is locked in it.
Although it was late at night, the candlelight was still on. Zhan Lingze walked into the cell in the dark room and saw Si Kou Xunxiang drinking drunk. It seemed that these wines were given to him by the emperor to relieve his sorrows, but he must be even more sad now.
Zhan Lingze did not know the past of Si Kou Xunxiang and Yan Ji, but he understood his sincerity for her. He didn't need to think much about it and knew that he took the initiative to take all the blame on himself, so he was locked in this dark room. The emperor cares about his achievements and of course will not punish him. This is just a delaying plan until it is solved. After Yan Ji, let him out, so that this storm will also end.
"Ji'er, Ji'er..." Si Kou Xunxiang felt that someone came in and hurriedly stammed and ran forward.
Because I drank too much wine, I didn't stand firmly on the ground.
"It's me... national teacher, why are you so drunk?"
Zhan Lingze looked at Si Ko and Xun Xiang's embarrassed look and sighed repeatedly.
"Your Majesty...Your Majesty... Why are you here? Has something wrong with Ji'er?"
Si Kou Xunxiang grabbed Zhan Lingze's legs and shook them violently.
The national teacher has always been wise and martial, but today he tortured himself like this, which is really heartbreaking.
Zhan Lingze squatted down and comforted him.
"National teacher, don't worry, the emperor has promised to forgive Yanji, and now I will send you out..."
Although Si Kou Xunxiang was drunk, he was very sober. Hearing this, he looked at Zhan Lingze with an unbelievable look.
How can Zhan Lingze have the ability to convince the emperor?
"Are you telling the truth? Did the emperor spare Ji'er? Really spare her?"
Zhan Lingze nodded.
So Zhan Lingze and Si Kou Xunxiang went out of the palace together.
Zhan Lingze sent Si Kou Xunxiang back to his house. Si Kou Xunxiang couldn't take care of everything and hurried to see Yan Ji.
but was stopped by Zhan Lingze.
"Master, Yan Ji has been sent to a safe place by the sixth prince. Don't worry. Have a good night's rest. The next day, after I ask the sixth prince, let's go to find Miss Yanji together."
Zhan Lingze knew that Yan Ji must have fallen asleep at this time, and he was the one who secretly followed the sixth prince. Although he knew where Yan Ji was at this time, it was more appropriate to ask him in person tomorrow in order not to let the sixth prince suspect that he would cause unnecessary trouble.
Si Kou Xunxiang was a little hesitant, because he was still worried about Yan Ji's safety.
"If the national teacher doesn't believe me, he can still find it by himself... I'm going back to bed!"
Zhan Lingze was a little impatient. He took the drunkard out of the palace and sent him to his house in person. What else did he want to do?
With that, he went straight out of the house.
Si Kou Xunxiang thought about it carefully, and Zhan Lingze's words were reasonable, so he also went in and took a rest.
Zhan Lingze originally planned to go back to his house to sleep, but as he walked, he didn't feel that he had walked to the courtyard door where the sixth prince sent someone to hide Yanji.
It's really ridiculous. He didn't let the national teacher come, but he was still worried and came to see Yanji.
He jumped in.
found Yan Ji's room, and he quietly entered. At this time, Yan Ji had fallen asleep and the room was dark. Only the faint moonlight fell in and fell on the ground, shining a faint shadow.
Zhan Lingze walked to Yan Ji's window and looked at her sleeping sweetly. In the dark, he faintly saw her eyebrows frowning, and her deep sadness could not be turned away.
