Chapter 78
"Stop talking," Ling Zaifu suddenly growled, "No need to say anything, there's no need to say anything."

Ever since Aunt Huang's incident, he has respected Ling Xi's ability to "foresee the unknown" like a god.

Since she said so, it will definitely happen.

His beard trembled and his voice became hoarse: "Xi'er, tell the truth to dad... If you can change the fate of you and His Majesty, you should also be able to change the fate of your third brother, right?"

"Dad?" Ling Rui was about to vomit blood.

It doesn't matter if Ling Xi talks nonsense, why is her old father also as crazy as her! ?

Ling Xi shook his head: "I'm not sure!"

"Not sure? Aren't you standing in front of me properly now? Aren't you already through that death disaster?"

"Dad, you don't understand...how should I tell you?"

Ling Xi was in a dilemma, not knowing how to explain it to her old father to understand the butterfly effect.

"Your Majesty and I escaped that disaster, but what followed was even greater trouble and a steady stream of troubles... I can help the third brother escape from Chang Sunyan's murderous hands, but I can't guarantee that his future will be smooth sailing. !”

"No one dares to guarantee the future, but since there is a death disaster, we will work together to help him avoid it," Ling Zaifu took a deep breath and made a decision: "Just like this time, we will help you!"

A family must live neatly.

He will do his best to ensure that his children live to the end.

He would never allow the disaster of killing the whole family and annihilating the entire family.

Ling Rui looked at his old father as if he were a madman: "Dad, have you also been infected by Ling Xiaosi's madness?"

Before he finished speaking, Ling Zaifu slapped him on the forehead.

"shut up!"

"father……"

"Did I tell you during the days when you were asked to take care of Zang Yuhua that you should observe this person's temperament? How did your observation go?"

"He? Is he okay? He's a decent person... No, dad," Ling Rui still doesn't understand what's going on: "Why are you so interested in a prisoner?"

"What kind of prisoner? That could be our family's future life-saving straw!"

Ling Zaifu never allowed his sons to participate in government affairs, let alone get involved in party struggles.

So the three sons are all smart, but they are not as sensitive to the muddy waters of the court as Ling Xi, a girl.

"Ling Rui, please listen to me. From now on, you have to do whatever your sister asks you to do. Don't ask. Just do as she asks."

"Dad, she hasn't read a single book for several days. You asked me to..."

Before Ling Rui's protest was over, he was punched and kicked by his old father again.

"I'm asking you to act according to my sister's words, I'm not asking you to stand here and refute, do you hear me?"

Ling Rui was kicked several times and did not dare to resist, but Ling Xi stood there watching the show with a sullen expression on his face.

He glared threateningly for a few times, and then his old father grabbed his ears.

"Don't you know a few bad friends? Go and smooth the relationship with them, find out where Zang Yuhua is being held, and make sure he is alive."

"Oh." Ling Rui agreed, cursed and left with a dirty look on his face.Ling Zaifu thought of something and turned around to find his shoes and put them on: "I have to go out. After so many years, I don't know if those old things can still be used!?"

Since someone was doing something, Ling Xi took the opportunity to take some time off and had a good sleep.

When I woke up again, it was already noon the next day.

She lay lazily on the bed for a while, then suddenly remembered the tyrant's poison, and then got up to find her old father.

Ling Zaifu was writing something with his head down in the study. Ling Rui was also there. When he saw her coming, he got up immediately.

"Ling Xiaosi, you are so brave. His Majesty was poisoned yesterday. Why didn't you tell us?"

"Is it useful to tell you?" Ling Xi rolled her eyes at him: "Can you detoxify it, or can you restrain the Queen Mother and make her hand over the antidote?"

"……this?"

"Since you can't, then just wait." Ling Xi calculated the time and estimated that it was almost time: "We can't continue until Qian Shizhong comes back!"

She pushed Ling Rui away: "Dad, is there anything going on in the court?"

"Your Majesty is ill, does not go to court, and does not manage politics. Everyone is in peace for the time being." Ling Zaifu thought of something and frowned: "However, the Queen Mother has taken over the imperial city guard. Now besides His Majesty's Suiyang Palace, there are Under the control of the Twelve Guards, all other places are in the hands of the Queen Mother.”

"Where is the Regent?"

"This is the strangest thing, he didn't do anything," Ling Zaifu whispered: "I thought he was going to compete with the Queen Mother for the right to guard the imperial city!"

"As long as your Majesty dies, everything is in vain. The regent is waiting," Ling Xi fully anticipated Chen Wangchuan's action and was not too moved: "Moreover, by standing still, to a certain extent, he also put pressure on the queen mother."

The Queen Mother knew that the Regent would seize power, but he refused to take action, leaving the Queen Mother unable to control the situation. She had no way to prepare for a rainy day, and was too afraid to act recklessly.

They restrain each other, which is actually a good thing for the tyrant.

"Dad, what did the imperial doctor say?"

"Your Majesty is not in fear of his life for the time being, but none of them will say whether he will wake up, when he will wake up, or what will happen next..."

Ling Xi sneered: "It's understandable. These people are waiting for His Majesty's death or the Queen Mother's death before they choose to join forces again."

These people today do not dare to let the tyrant die, but they also do not dare to let him wake up, so as not to offend the queen mother or the tyrant, they are all waiting and watching in a tacit understanding.

"But, isn't this sick?" Ling Rui couldn't understand such behavior at all: "Isn't His Majesty's safety the most important thing? As royal doctors, shouldn't they try their best to save His Majesty? How could you... Why are you looking at me like this?"

Whether it was his old father or his sister, the way they looked at him was no different from looking at an idiot.

Ling Zaifu: "Lao San, after talking so much, why do you still not understand?"

Ling Xi: "Third brother, Your Majesty is just a tool for these people to get promoted and make money! It's just about who gets the benefits!"

Ling Zaifu: "Your Majesty wakes up and the Queen Mother loses, then the Queen Mother may cause trouble for them. But if Your Majesty dies, their two-pound bones cannot afford it, so they can only do it on both sides without offending each other." !”

Ling Xi: "Third brother, do you understand?"

Ling Rui shook his head, his expression even more confused than before: "Then, we can't just waste it like this, right?"

"For the imperial doctors, the benefits are naturally greater if they are wasted, but for us..." Ling Xi smiled slyly: "But it is an opportunity!"

The life-saving straw that Qian Shizhong was looking for had not yet arrived. The efforts of the Queen Mother and the imperial doctors gave the tyrant a chance to save his life.
