Chapter 185 Meeting with Qi Lingzhou
Miss Zhao?
She remembered that her mother's surname was Zhao. Could it be that Qi Lingzhou pretended to be a doctor to treat her mother?
Su Yuheng frowned slightly, and saw Qi Lingzhou gave him a hint.
Minglang looked at the guard beside him and said, "Since you are here, take him to the yard."
Guard: "Yes, sir."
After the guards took Qi Lingzhou away, Minglang turned and looked at Su Yuheng.
"Do you like this headdress?"
Su Yuheng smiled and said, "This headdress is very beautiful. I like it very much. Thank you, Prime Minister."
Seeing Su Yuheng calling him Prime Minister, Minglang frowned slightly.
He smiled instead: "You should call me father."
"However, since you just returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion and are unfamiliar with me, I can understand why you feel embarrassed to say it out loud."
"You are my only blood relative, and I will compensate you well in the future."
"Yes, Prime Minister." After Su Yuheng said this, he asked Linglong to accept the headwear. When he turned around, he saw Wang staring at him fiercely.
However, she had only been in the Prime Minister's Mansion for one day when she noticed something was wrong.
When Prime Minister Ming was not in the palace, Wang Shi naturally had everything she wanted and was the most powerful.
But as long as Minglang was in the mansion, Wang was like a turtle with its head huddled down, and could only watch helplessly without any say.
I think Wang also knows how important she is in Prime Minister Ming's heart.
Su Yuheng was arranged by Prime Minister Ming to live in the Zijing Garden of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Bauhinia Garden faces south and the courtyard was carefully designed by craftsmen.
The inner courtyard is magnificent, while the outer courtyard is elegant.
In addition to the rockery and flowing water, there are osmanthus trees all over the yard.
After Su Yuheng arrived at Zijing Garden with two maids, Prime Minister Ming arranged for about four or five maids to come to the yard.
But she didn't care.
What she cared more about was finding a way to see her mother.
After the master and his two servants arrived at Bauhinia Garden, they went to the wing room. After entering the wing room, Linglong closed the door.
"Linglong, you stand guard at the door and don't let other maids get close."
Linglong nodded, turned around and walked out the door, guarding outside.
Zhuque handed the information that Yipinxuan had obtained to Su Yuheng.
Su Yuheng picked up the letter and took a look at it, his brows furrowed more and more.
"Are all those concubines in the backyard new this year?"
"How strange! Why couldn't Prime Minister Ming accept the bribe at any other time, but only this year?"
Zhuque said, "Those women were all found from various states and counties in Qin State by Prime Minister Ming, based on their portraits."
"Is Prime Minister Ming crazy?"
Under the candlelight, Su Yuheng frowned, feeling that something was wrong.
Is the woman that Qi Lingzhou went to see his mother?
Mom is sick? What's wrong with her?
"Have you found anything else?" Su Yuheng asked.
"Yes." Suzaku answered simply.
"I heard that in the deserted courtyard north of the Prime Minister's Mansion, there's a blind woman imprisoned. She's bedridden all day and is practically on her last legs."
As Zhuque finished speaking, Su Yuheng felt something pulling at his heart.
The woman's intuition told her that the woman was most likely her mother.
She froze on the stool, somewhat incredulous.
"That woman is blind?"
Suzaku nodded, "Yes."
"However, I have also secretly visited the deserted courtyard in the northern part of the Prime Minister's residence. There are several guards guarding there."
"I really don't understand. If she's a blind woman, why do they have so many guards watching her? It's as if they're afraid she'll escape."
Su Yuheng took the letter, put one hand on the chair, and felt a little difficult to breathe.
"Suzaku, go and observe tonight when the guards at the Beiyuan Deserted Courtyard will change shifts."
"I have to find a way..."
'Cuckoo-cuckoo-cuckoo. '
Just then, a bird's cry came from the west side of the wing room, and Su Yuheng signaled to Zhuque.
Zhuque immediately walked over and opened the west window.
A young man in white clothes came in.
Zhuque was about to attack when he was pushed away by the young man in white.
"The little girl's skills are not as good as mine."
"You..." Zhuque's face turned pale.
She didn't expect that Qi Lingzhou had such great internal strength.
She is the Vermillion Bird Envoy of the Tianji Pavilion, and her martial arts skills are top-notch. She didn't expect that Qi Lingzhou's martial arts skills are even better than hers.
Then why was he imprisoned in the underground prison of Prince Qi's palace?
"Suzaku, let him come."
"Close the windows and don't make any noise to alert the maids and servants in the outer courtyard."
"Yes, Princess."
Zhuque walked over, closed the west window, and returned to his original position.
Qi Lingzhou turned over and came in, walking straight to Su Yuheng.
He found a chair and sat down on it, looking nonchalant.
Su Yuheng smiled and poured him a cup of tea.
"I didn't expect you to be one step ahead of me."
"Tell me, when did you know your identity?"
Qi Lingzhou coughed lightly and sat up straight.
He held the teacup and did not directly answer Su Yuheng's question.
"You have the idea of becoming the daughter of Prime Minister Ming."
"Prime Minister Ming has been failing in that area for many years. Although he has three or four concubines, he has no children."
"You know all this?" Su Yuheng put down the teacup in his hand.
"Mom, can you see it?" she asked.
Qi Lingzhou frowned, then suddenly looked up at Su Yuheng.
"Sister."
When Su Yuheng heard the word "sister", her heart ached and her eyes met Qi Lingzhou's.
She curled her lips and whispered, "This is the first time I've heard someone call me that."
No one has ever called her "Sister" in her past life or this life.
Now that Qi Lingzhou called her "sister," Su Yuheng felt sad and touched.
Qi Lingzhou smiled.
"Your eyes turn red when I call you sister?"
"Oh, women are so hypocritical."
"I hate this kind of sensational scene the most."
He sighed and continued, "I'm here to talk about serious matters."
"Mother is blind."
As Qi Lingzhou finished speaking, Su Yuheng lost his grip on the teacup and it fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Suddenly, footsteps were heard outside the door, followed by the voice of a nanny.
"Miss, are you okay?"
The nanny wanted to go forward and push open the door of the side room, but was stopped by Linglong.
"Miss, it's alright, you guys go down!"
The nanny looked at Linglong and muttered, "How come the little girl has so much strength?"
In the side room, Su Yuheng was somewhat incredulous.
The woman in the deserted courtyard that Zhuque found was indeed her mother.
Su Yuheng asked, "Do you know how she became blind? You went to the yard to see her. How is she? What's wrong with her?"
Seeing Su Yuheng so anxious, Qi Lingzhou said, "Her eyes were blinded by crying."
"She didn't come to Qin State voluntarily. For so many years, the Shen family thought she was dead, so they didn't look for her."
"She was faked dead by Prime Minister Ming's men and taken to the Qin State. Prime Minister Ming imprisoned her all day and even poisoned her to control her."
"Prime Minister Qin Guoming doesn't really love mother, he just covets her beauty."
"There's a poison in my mother's body, and there's no cure yet."
"I caught a cold in the deserted courtyard these past few days, so I came here pretending to be a doctor."
