Chapter 189

Wei Yan’s complexion stiffened slightly and asked instead of answering, “Why would 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 only because of Yan Wang, why did Wei Yan look so strange and nervous that day?

There must be something else going on here!

Wei Yan obviously did not want to talk about it in depth, and said lightly, “Anyway, the situation in the palace is complicated, so you should be more careful when you see Empress Xu in the palace in the future”

Ling Jingshu’s heart quietly stirred, and a horrifying suspicion vaguely arose, “Doctor Wei, you’re gulping and refusing to speak plainly, is it because this matter also has something to do with you?”

Wei Yan’s body stiffened, his complexion taut, but his eyes flashed with wariness, his voice steeply cold: “Miss Ling asked these, don’t you think it’s too abrupt and presumptuous to make shallow remarks?”

Sure enough, it had something to do with him!

Ling Jingshu’s heart sank, but she didn’t show it on her face, “I’ll take it as a dare

You’ve reminded me time and again to be careful of Empress Xu, so it’s clear that you know in your heart that Empress Xu is bound to have a bad feeling towards me for some reason

Maybe one day she will deal with me

If it’s because of you, then won’t I be implicated?

I’m terrified and uneasy in my heart, so I can’t even ask a few questions after you?”

Wei Yan was silent, his handsome face taut and extremely tight, quite a bit difficult to speak

Could

really be what she thought?

! Ling Jingshu knew that this speculation was very absurd, but looking at Wei Yan’s reaction at this moment, that absurd thought in her heart became clearer and clearerDoctor Wei, Empress Xu

What exactly should she say to you ” is appropriate?

Ling Jingshu asked in an ambiguous manner, but Wei Yan effortlessly understood

An instant reaction was denial

He was a seven-foot man, but he was thought of by a woman in her forties who had power in her hands, which was simply the biggest humiliation of his life

He had been doing his best to hide it, and even his eldest sister did not know about it

How can he let a young girl know?

What’s more, the other party is still Ling Jingshu

He must not admit this matter!

Wei Yan’s gaze was complicated, his complexion was vaguely distorted, and the sentence he originally thought of, “There is no such thing”, somehow turned into “There is no such thing”

The sentence that he had originally thought of, “This is absolutely not the case,” somehow turned into, “I asked you about your secret before, and you refused to reveal half a word

Now you are forcing me like this

You should know the reasoning of not doing to others what you don’t want them to do to you”

The words were cold, permeated with the cold hardness of rejecting others

The blood color on Ling Jingshu’s face quickly faded

It was not because of Wei Yan’s cold words

Rather, it was because Wei Yan did not refute it

Her suspicions were actually true!

Empress Xu was actually harboring ulterior motives towards Wei Yan!As the Queen of a Palace, how could she have such a dirty mind”

Ling Jingshu’s speech was a bit disorganized under the shock of her heart and mind, “Isn’t she afraid that the Emperor will find out?

In case the Emperor finds out, how would he spare her!”

Wei Yan coldly tugged at the corner of his lips, “The Emperor is getting older, his energy is not good

He has been neglecting the imperial government

In the past few years, most of his thoughts have been focused on cultivating and practicing pills, thinking of becoming immortal and living forever

Where there is leisure to ask about the harem

Empress Xu’s Pepper Palace will be replaced by a group of chambermaids every so often, and this matter is a secret in the palace”

As the saying goes, there is a mother, there is a daughter

Princess Changping’s debauchery and wantonness was obviously also learned from Empress Xu

Ling Jingshu opened her mouth, but for a moment, she did not know what to say

Do you want to comfort him?

But this kind of thing, there is really no way to comfort

The other party is a high-powered Empress Xu, and only secretly coveted and did not really Wei Yan “hand down”

The only thing that Wei Yan can do is to keep his head down and not do anything else

Wei Yan has never been married, and I think also and Queen Xu’s secret obstruction is not less related to it!

Wei Yan did not know what past events he remembered, his eyes flashed a gloomy hateful light: “When Empress Xu wanted to give me a marriage

It was a test

If I really married that Miss Xu family’s side branch, I would completely fall into the hands of the Xu family

Therefore, I refused without hesitation and made a lifelong vow not to marry”Because of this, I was able to preserve myself”

Being coveted was clearly not a wonderful memory

Wei Yan’s face was very ugly, and he paused for a moment before continuing, “Later, I founded the Hall of Returning Spring, and my medical skills grew more and more refined, and I also gained quite a reputation

I began to check the pulse of the Emperor and the Crown Prince

Empress Xu also asked me to ask for a safe pulse from time to time

I went in and out of the Pepper Room Hall more often, and the female official in the Pepper Room Hall, Green Pearl, became a bit more familiar with me”

Green Pearl

Ling Jingshu recited two words in her mind

Just by hearing the name, a playful and lovely slender woman seemed to appear before her eyes

Mentioning this name that hadn’t been mentioned for a long time, Wei Yan was also a bit gloomy: “Green Pearl is the most useful female officer beside Empress Xu

She is lively and cheerful, and every time she sees me, she always climbs into a few more conversations with me”I don’t have any other thoughts about her, I just think she has a pleasing disposition and will occasionally chat with her for a few moments

Elder sister did move her heart, wanting to beg Empress Xu to bestow Green Pearl to me in marriage

I refused to do so

But I didn’t expect that Empress Xu would know about it and have evil thoughts in her heart”

Ling Jingshu’s heart trembled, and subconsciously asked, “What happened afterward?”

Wei Yan’s voice was low: “Later, Lvzhu ‘suffered from a bad disease’ and was sent out of the palace

Within half a year, she died”

Without much questioning, he knew that this matter was all Empress Xu’s secret ghost, a young and vibrant life that had fallen at the drop of a hat at Empress Xu’s whim

Just like her previous life!

Ling Jingshu’s face turned white, her lips pursed extremely tight

Wei Yan looked deeply at Ling Jingshu: ”I have never mentioned these things to anyone

I specifically told you today because I hope you are clear about Empress Xu’s methods

Her sudden ‘favor’ towards you is by no means a good intention

You must remember to be careful!”

Ling Jingshu first nodded her head, then suddenly came back to her senses and rounded her eyes in surprise: “You mean that Empress Xu will be cynical about me because of you and then poison me?

But

But I only have dealings with you because of Ah Xiao’s illness, and have no other interactions ah!

How could she have created such a misunderstanding!”

Looking at Ling Jingshu’s incredulous look, Wei Yan rarely felt some embarrassment and said in a low voice, “In order to avoid suspicion, I never have dealings with young girls in the court on weekdays

Occasionally, when I meet a woman for treating a patient, I basically don’t talk

Although you and I don’t have close dealings, however, for those who are familiar with my temperament, this is already considered extraordinarily close”

Ling Jingshu: ” “Wei Yan’s embarrassment caused her to feel awkward and uncomfortable as well

As if the two really had some kind of ambiguous relationship
