Chapter 256 The Moon Shines on the Old Friend
Feng Jiuqing sent the person back to the couch and fed Lan Ruoting a pill that he got from Yan'er.
This is a pill that will make you sleepy for three months.
He changed his mind and didn't want to kill Lan Ruoting. Although this man had a bad character, he was the father of those two people after all. This time, for their sake, he didn't kill him.
Anyway, Wuyou should have ascended to the throne in three months. Even if Lan Ruoting wakes up, it won't change anything.
Xuanshi Hall of the Dai Viet Royal Palace.
"Qingqing!"
Mo Ling woke up from his dream, sat up and gasped for breath.
He just dreamed that Qingqing was kidnapped. He tried his best to hold Qingqing back, but he couldn't. He could only watch Qingqing being taken away.
But in fact, the Feng Jiuqing in his dream took the initiative to leave with others, but he insisted on pulling Feng Jiuqing back. Feng Jiuqing refused to come back. After shaking him off, she disappeared with a person whose face he could not see clearly.
But Mo Ling stubbornly believed that it was that man who had snatched his beloved, so he carried a few pots of wine alone and jumped onto the roof of the Xuanshi Palace, and was almost mistaken for an assassin by the patrolling guards.
After the false alarm, Mo Ling raised his head and drank a pot of wine. The moment he threw the pot down, he picked up another pot of wine. He did not drink up all the wine he brought with him until he had finished it. His heart still felt like it was suspended in mid-air and he could not let it go.
The feeling of uneasiness in his heart grew stronger and stronger. He always felt that if he couldn't find Qingqing again, he might lose Qingqing forever.
But Qingqing's whereabouts were concealed by the Grand Tutor. The secret guards he sent out would occasionally send back some news, but they were all useless. Either Qingqing had left them too late, or the news was wrong and the person found was not Qingqing.
He opened the letter again and again with hope, but returned disappointed again and again. He had done this countless times, and his heart was growing heavier and heavier.
Even so, he would still open and read every letter sent by the secret guard himself, even if there was no love message in it.
The Grand Tutor is getting colder towards him now. If there is no important matter, he may not see the Grand Tutor once every ten days or half a month. (Canglang: If you don’t have a wife, don’t bother others to have one!)
Therefore, he could not ask about Qingqing's news. Even if he did, the Grand Tutor would just look at him indifferently and would not tell him a word about Qingqing.
He knew that the Grand Tutor did not trust him to be good to Qingqing, and he indeed did not have the credibility for the Grand Tutor to trust him in this regard. But was it wrong for him to just want to be with Qingqing?
Is it wrong that he just wants to win back Qingqing?
He had to meet Qingqing in order to make it up to him and be good to Qingqing, but neither the Grand Tutor nor Qingqing was willing to give him a chance to make amends.
Does it mean that if you make a mistake once, you will never be able to live a clean life for the rest of your life?
It was his fault, he was extremely wrong, he admitted his mistake and accepted the punishment, as long as Qingqing forgives him, he would do anything!
But Qingqing didn't even want to see him!
"Someone, bring me some wine! I want to drink to my heart's content today!"
Jiazi frowned. His Majesty drank to drown his sorrows every day. If he continued like this, there would be problems sooner or later. But he couldn't persuade His Majesty at all. The Grand Tutor could persuade him, but he didn't care about His Majesty at all.
He once went to the Grand Tutor for help, but all he got was one sentence: "Your Majesty has already reached adulthood. If you don't even know what you should do and what you shouldn't do, then there is no need for you to be the emperor."
Jiazi was afraid that if he continued to ask, he would anger the Grand Tutor, so he had to come back by himself and watch His Majesty getting drunk every day. It was obvious that when Your Majesty was here, His Majesty rarely drank, only Your Majesty liked to drink, but Your Majesty only had a small drink every two or three days.
"Yes!"
Jiazi responded and soon disappeared.
Mo Ling's eyes were blurry. In a trance, he seemed to see Qingqing in front of him, smiling at him. He stood up shakily and immediately ran towards Feng Jiuqing's shadow.
He wanted to hold Qingqing in his arms, but his hand went straight through Feng Jiuqing, and his shadow turned into nothingness and disappeared into the night.
"Qingqing!"
A tear rolled down Mo Ling's eyes. "Are you so unwilling to see me, Qingqing?"
Qingqing, I was wrong, please come back!
Qingqing, I miss you. Can you come back and see me?
Qingqing, can you give me another chance to see you?
My dear!
My dear!
Mo Ling kept calling Qingqing, but the night was long and lonely, and no matter how he called, no one responded.
"A Ling, you're drinking again!"
The King of Nancheng's voice was not loud, but it pulled Mo Ling out of the fantasy he had created.
Mo Ling rubbed his swollen and aching temple and said softly, "Brother, why did you come to see me?"
This sentence almost made the King of Nancheng laugh. This little bastard, can't he come to him if he has nothing to do? Besides, he is an emperor, how can he be drunk every day!
"A Ling, are you trying to get drunk and die by drinking like this?" King Nancheng's voice was a little cold and his expression was not very good.
Mo Ling shook his head nonchalantly: "No, I can't get drunk with this little bit of wine."
King Nancheng looked at Mo Ling standing on the roof, trembling, and was afraid that he might accidentally fall down again and damage his brain. What would he do if he became an idiot?
There is no one as stupid as Yan Yiran nowadays who is willing to stay with a idiot all the time.
If Mo Ling turns into a fool again, given the Grand Tutor's current attitude towards Mo Ling, he might appoint a new king. Then he would have to start all over again, which would be too troublesome. He had better keep an eye on Mo Ling to avoid any trouble that would affect his affairs.
"A Ling! You are not a child anymore, you can't be so willful! You are the emperor of Dai Viet now, and you have the entire Dai Viet on your shoulders! Even if you don't care about your own health, you should think about the people of the world!"
"A gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall. You climbed to the roof of Xuanshi Palace in the middle of the night. Aren't you afraid of falling down?"
Mo Ling simply shook his head and said, "No, falling from this height won't kill me."
"Mo Ling! Are you trying to piss my brother off to death?"
King Nancheng looked at the guards below and shouted angrily: "What are you all doing here! Get His Majesty down! If anything happens to His Majesty, I will have you bring your heads to me!"
The guards who were still patrolling immediately took action. They had wanted His Majesty to come down for a long time, but how could they have the courage?
If they accidentally anger His Majesty, they will have no place to cry.
Now that Prince Nancheng is here, they have become bolder. Even if His Majesty is angry, Prince Nancheng is there to support them, and they will probably only be affected a little bit.
Anyway, His Majesty will not be angry with King Nancheng, so the probability of them being implicated is even smaller.
But King Nancheng did not expect that Mo Ling, who had always been very obedient, would be uncharacteristically stubborn today.
