Chapter 156 Encourage
"If there was a way to get the Emperor to meet the Empress and clear up the misunderstanding, that would be great. The Emperor's inexplicable actions are what hurt the Empress the most. They are husband and wife, and even the biggest issues should be discussed together..."
Listening to Li Yu chattering beside him, Ling Yunche clenched his hands into fists, and was very disgusted with the emperor's behavior.
How could such a man be worthy of the Queen's deep love?
Sincerity should not be betrayed, let alone trampled upon.
He hated the emperor for trampling on the empress's sincerity because that was what he had always wanted.
People are often like this. They don't cherish what they get easily.
Just as the two of them were racking their brains to find a solution, a voice from the side interrupted their actions.
"Master, I know someone who can help the Queen meet the Emperor..." A head poked out from the red wall behind them and said cautiously.
Upon hearing this, Li Yu quickly looked to the side and found that it was Jinzhong.
He was acting furtively there, and it was obvious that he was eavesdropping on their conversation.
"You're so good, Jinzhong! You even dared to eavesdrop on your master's conversation. You're so cunning, I don't know what's going on in your head. Tell me, do you have any good ideas for the Emperor to see the Empress?"
Li Yuke didn't have time to argue with him. He flicked the whisk in his hand and spoke directly.
In fact, he was still half-believing and half-doubting at this time. Even he and Ling Yunche had no idea, so how could this unknown little disciple come up with a solution?
Jinzhong rubbed his hands and said a little embarrassedly: "I don't have the ability to influence the emperor's mind, but there is someone who can. In this palace, besides the empress, the most favored one is Concubine Ling. Why not ask Concubine Ling? She can understand the emperor's mind best. Maybe she can find a way to let the emperor see the empress..."
As Jinzhong spoke, he secretly observed Ling Yunche's expression.
When he mentioned Concubine Ling, a strange look suddenly flashed across Ling Yunche's face, and Jinzhong rolled his eyes silently in his heart.
You're such a coward, I'll beat you up even if ten more guys come.
Li Yu frowned when he heard this. The Empress Dowager and Concubine Ling had always been at odds with each other. How could Concubine Ling take the initiative to help the Empress Dowager?
Now that the Queen has lost her power, she is probably too happy to let her go to see the Emperor.
I'm afraid that even if I beg, I'll still run into obstacles everywhere and suffer humiliation in vain.
"What you said is feasible, but regarding the relationship between the Empress and Concubine Ling..."
Li Yu thought about it and realized that this was the truth.
After all, when the emperor and the empress had a dispute a few years ago, it was always Concubine Ling who helped the emperor to calm down. If there was anyone in the palace who could persuade the emperor, it was only Concubine Ling.
But when he thought about their relationship, Li Yu looked embarrassed.
"Master, listen to me. Given the current situation, you should swallow your pride and beg Concubine Ling. It's better than letting the Empress stay in Yikun Palace and become increasingly depressed! You can't just watch the Emperor neglect the Empress, right? It's come to this, it's not shameful to beg..."
A gleam of light flashed in Jinzhong's eyes. The look was charming and familiar, the expression one would show when doing something bad was about to succeed.
These words vaguely moved Li Yu.
But if the Empress were to ask Concubine Ling for help, that would be absolutely impossible.
The Empress has always been aloof and would not do such a thing. Instead of asking her to beg, she would rather let the Emperor treat her coldly.
"But who should we ask for help? The Empress is definitely not allowed to go. Concubine Chun and Concubine Ling had some conflicts in the past, and Concubine Yu must also..."
Just when Li Yu was in trouble, a voice interrupted him.
"I'll go and beg!"
Ling Yunche answered in a sonorous and powerful voice, his eyes full of determination.
He knew that his earlier struggles with Yan Wan had left both of them unhappy. If she could help the Empress, he would go and see her, even if it meant risking his life.
"Lord Ling? I know you and Concubine Ling have known each other since childhood, but now that you both have your own places, wouldn't it be a bit embarrassing to ask for help suddenly..."
Li Yu also knew about the past between Wei Yanwan and Ling Yunche, and understood his dilemma.
Ling Yunche shook his head, still insisting on his decision: "The Empress has been kind to me, and I have no choice but to help her when she is in trouble. Eunuch Li Yu, you just said that Empress Ling and I have known each other since childhood, and we have a bond in the past. It is most appropriate for me to go and ask for help."
When Jinzhong heard Ling Yunche mention their past relationship, his face involuntarily darkened.
Jinzhong gritted his teeth secretly, feeling so angry that his teeth were itching.
Favor? What favor?
Was it because he hadn't been able to help her in the past five years? Or was it because he was on the same side as her bully?
You shameless guy, you still dare to mention our past friendship after all these years.
If you weren't still useful, I would have castrated you sooner or later and cut you into 108 pieces and fed them to the dogs! You wouldn't be able to put them back together!
Jin Zhongqiang smiled and took a deep breath. Even though his eyes were red with hatred, he still followed suit.
"Master, I think this matter is indeed best handled by Lord Ling. If you want to save the Empress, please humble yourself and ask for help for the time being! Empress Ling is magnanimous and will definitely agree..."
Li Yu had no choice but to give up after hearing this. He nodded and patted Ling Yunche on the shoulder: "Then I'll leave it to you, Master Ling. I'll wait here for your good news."
Ling Yunche nodded and went back to continue his duty, leaving only Jinzhong and Li Yu behind.
Seeing that there was a way to resolve the current predicament, Li Yu finally felt relieved. He patted Jinzhong on the shoulder and praised him, "You are really good, kid. You can think of a way to do this. If this succeeds, you will have made a great contribution. The Queen will definitely reward you."
"I am just helping Master with his worries. It is not a great achievement. Master, the Emperor is still waiting. I will leave first."
"Go and serve the emperor well." Li Yu nodded, and his eyes were full of admiration.
This apprentice finally has some potential. If he is of the same mind as me, then I will have a successor in the future.
Jinzhong had a stern face. When he walked to a place where there was no one, he patted the face that Li Yu had just patted with disgust.
Tiantian pretended to be a good disciple in front of him. Seeing his intimacy just now, Jinzhong felt disgusted if he looked at him for even a second.
But the most disgusting one is Ling Yunche. Jinzhong wants to cut him into pieces with his own hands.
I really failed to do this job today. I just feel uncomfortable all over.
I have to go back and find my master to treat him properly. He won’t accept any ordinary reward!
