Eunuch Zhang was anxious to get rid of the person, so he took the food box and said, "Okay, okay, I'll take you to the side hall."
Lu Linglong turned around and looked proudly at Concubine Li who was standing not far away and watching, then turned around and followed Eunuch Zhang to the side hall.
Li Zhaoyi's eyes widened: "Did she really see it?"
The palace attendant said quickly, "Perhaps His Majesty is impatient. His Majesty is busy, and she was shouting outside, disturbing His Majesty, so he sent everyone away. Whether they will meet later or not is another matter, isn't it?"
Li Zhaoyi thought so too and didn't want to waste time here anymore, so she turned and left.
Eunuch Zhang brought the food box into the room and put it aside. The emperor now had strict regulations and restrictions on what he ate and drank. How could he just eat what was sent from outside?
On the other side, Lu Linglong waited in the side hall from dawn to dusk, and then she curled up on the couch and took a nap. When she woke up hungry, she still hadn't seen the emperor coming.
Lu Linglong ran out quickly and found that it was completely dark and all the lights in the Palace of Heavenly Purity were off.
Lu Linglong hurried forward and knocked on the door: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
Eunuch Zhang's apprentice was on guard in the palace. Upon hearing this, he quickly opened the door and came out: "Your Majesty has gone to bed. Is there anything I can do for you, Lady?"
Lu Linglong couldn't believe it: "Your Majesty said you would see me, why did you go to bed?"
The young disciple looked distressed. "Your Majesty was already in poor health, and now he's exhausted. Didn't he retire early? Is this because Cai Nu is tired? His Majesty said that you must not be disturbed while you rest. If you wake up, I will send you back. His Majesty knows that Cai Nu is so thoughtful, so he specially asked the imperial kitchen to send food to Yinghua Palace so that you can enjoy it when you return."
As the young disciple said this, he asked Hou to bring the sedan chair next to him, personally helped her into the sedan chair, and coaxed the person away.
Lu Linglong returned to Yinghua Hall and looked at the table of dishes before she came to her senses: "Good fellow! You actually tricked me!"
Seeing so many rewards, Xiao E thought Lu Linglong had succeeded. When she heard Lu Linglong say this, she hurriedly asked, "Cai Nu, what happened?"
Lu Linglong was extremely upset: "They asked me to wait in the side hall, but I actually fell asleep. When I woke up, they told me that His Majesty had gone to bed, and they didn't let me see him."
Xiao'e hurriedly asked, "Has the soup been delivered?"
Lu Linglong nodded: "Of course, Eunuch Zhang brought it in personally, and I think His Majesty has already drunk it."
The goose breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "It's okay after drinking it, it's okay after drinking it."
Lu Linglong frowned and looked at her: "You seem to be very concerned about whether His Majesty drinks this soup. Is there anything in the soup?"
The little goose shook her head hurriedly, looking genuinely concerned for you: "Your Majesty has not seen the concubine, so this soup represents the concubine's heart. Your Majesty, if you drink it, will remember your thoughts in your heart. That's why I am happy."
"Of course." Lu Linglong was happy again, very proud. She asked someone to prepare hot water for washing, and told Xiao'e: "Please prepare the soup for tomorrow, too. I want to go there every day."
"Okay." Xiao E agreed hurriedly. She was afraid that she would not go.
For several days in a row, Lu Linglong reported to the Qianqing Palace. The emperor was very afraid of her shouting and screaming, so he asked someone to invite her to the side hall every time.
But the soup was not brought in.
Lu Linglong didn't care. As long as the emperor spoke to her and looked at her, it would be enough. When he was done with his work, he would naturally remember her kindness.
As for the soup, Lu Linglong drank it herself out of boredom while waiting in the side hall. It turned out to be quite delicious.
A few days passed like this, and it was by chance that Lu Linglong came that day. Several ministers came out and the two sides met.
Lu Linglong asked casually, "Your Majesty, are you done with your work?"
The Minister of Personnel saw that the Emperor had been very kind to Lu Linglong for many days, and that she was the only one among the concubines in the harem who had spoken to the Emperor. He thought she was favored, so when he heard her question, he didn't think much about it and just said, "I'm done."
Lu Linglong walked in. She entered through several ministers, and the guards did not stop her for a while.
Lu Linglong entered, walked cheerfully to the emperor, and bowed delicately, "Your Majesty, I greet you."
Her eyes were full of water, and Xiao'e's craftsmanship increased her beauty by seven points, which made the emperor stunned for a moment and he didn't even recognize her.
Seeing this, Lu Linglong was extremely happy. She stood up tenderly and placed the food box on the table. "Your Majesty, are you hungry? I brought you some soup. Would you like some?"
Seeing this, Eunuch Zhang wanted to step forward to stop him, but the emperor shook his head slightly, and Eunuch Zhang stepped back.
The emperor took the bowl brought by Lu Linglong and drank the soup in one gulp.
"Okay, I've finished drinking, you can go." The emperor began to drive people away.
Lu Linglong was not willing to leave: "I have been looking for Your Majesty for a few days. Your Majesty is finally free today, so let me accompany Your Majesty."
As Lu Linglong spoke, she walked around the table, looked at the emperor seductively, and quietly placed her hand on his arm.
"His Majesty……"
Lu Linglong called out softly and tenderly, and was about to take the opportunity to fall into the emperor's arms, but unexpectedly the emperor "pu" spat out a mouthful of blood.
Lu Linglong was startled and hurriedly shouted, "Your Majesty! Someone come quickly."
Eunuch Zhang also hurriedly shouted: "Call the imperial physician, call the imperial physician."
As soon as the two finished speaking, Li came in with two imperial doctors and a group of people.
Eunuch Zhang glanced at her and quickly waved to the imperial physician, "Quick, quick, come and see how His Majesty is doing."
The two imperial physicians took one look at Mrs. Li and hurried forward to take her pulse.
Then he exclaimed, "Your Majesty has been poisoned!"
Eunuch Zhang immediately glared at Lu Linglong: "How dare you poison His Majesty! Someone, arrest Lu Cainu!"
