1530. Chapter 1530 Sorry

Ye Zhen thought that something might have happened to Hong Ling, but she never thought that seeing Hong Ling would be like this.

When Xue Lin carried Hong Ling to Yongshou Palace, she knew what happened to Hong Ling at a glance.

"What's going on?" Ye Zhen's voice couldn't help sobbing, Hong Ling was not an ordinary court lady to her, they had been together for a long time, and when she was the most lonely, Hong Ling was still with her spent.

"Mother, we found Miss Hongling in the palace." Xue Lin lowered his head, not daring to tell Ye Zhen that Hongling was raped.

Ye Zhen took a deep breath, reached out to touch Hong Ling's face lightly, it was already ice-cold, her fair cheeks were still bruised, although they had been tidied up, some scars could not be completely covered.

Hong Ling's ten fingers didn't even have nails, and her neck was also covered with bruises. Ye Zhen closed her eyes, she could hardly imagine what Hong Ling had experienced.

"Bring me the medicine box." Ye Zhen's eyes were slightly red, and she suppressed the grief in her heart.

She can still save Hong Ling, she can't let Hong Ling die like this.

Dai Mei hurriedly went to the pharmacy to bring Ye Zhen's medicine box, "Your Majesty..."

Ye Zhen took out all the spiritual springs inside and poured them into Hongling's mouth, "Hongling, wake up, I don't allow you to die, do you hear that? Wake up..."

The spiritual spring poured into Hongling's mouth overflowed, and could no longer be fed into her body.

"Hongling, you can't die without Bengong's permission! Do you hear me!" Ye Zhen shouted loudly.

"Your Majesty, Hong Ling...can't wake up anymore." Xue Lin said in a deep voice from the side.

"Who is it?" A strong hatred surged in Ye Zhen's heart, it had been a long time since she wished to kill someone with her own hands.

"The emperor found out that Linyan of the Yiwang Mansion was Lu Lingzhi. When he took people to the Yiwang Mansion, Linyan had disappeared. Later, with the help of Xiao Qi, he found Hong Ling. In the palace outside the city, Mo Rong Hui is also missing." Xue Lin replied in a low voice, he used to protect the empress, and had a lot of contact with Hongling, and now seeing her being raped to death, he also felt uncomfortable .

Ye Zhen raised her head abruptly, "Did Lu Lingzhi capture Hong Ling?"

"Yes, but when we found Hongling, both Lu Lingzhi and Mo Ronghui had disappeared." Xue Lin said, "The emperor and General Ye have already left the city to look for them."

Lu Lingzhi...it really was him!

Ye Zhen couldn't help regretting, if she could have recognized him earlier in Yiwang Mansion that day, Hongling would not have such an end today.

"Niang Niang..." Xue Lin called out in a low voice, Hong Ling couldn't be kept here all the time.

"Bury Hong Ling in the Ye family's cemetery. She is an orphan and has no surname. Let her be Ye." Ye Zhen stood up and pressed all the grief to the bottom of her heart. No matter what she did now, it was useless , she just wanted to find Lu Lingzhi, and then kill him.

"Yes, empress." Xue Lin replied, he felt that although he didn't say what crime Hongling had suffered, empress should be clear about it.

Not long after, the court lady came in and told her that it was Princess Yi asking to see her.

Ye Zhen didn't really want to see Zhao Ning at this moment, she knew that Zhao Ning definitely didn't know Linyan's identity, but Lu Lingzhi had indeed lived in Yiwang Mansion for several years, and Yiwang Mansion had become his protective shell, so she didn't know about Lin Yan's identity. How many bad things have been done behind the scenes by using Yiwang Mansion.

"Let Concubine Yi go back to rest." Ye Zhen said lightly, at least wait until she calms down before going to see Zhao Ning.

After a while, the maid came in and said that Princess Yi refused to leave and was still waiting in the hall.

Murong Yi should not be in the capital at this time, he must have gone out of the city with Murong Zhan, otherwise he would not have let Zhao Ning enter the palace at this time.

Thinking that Zhao Ning is still pregnant, Ye Zhen sighed, "Go and invite Princess Yi in."

Zhao Ning, who was waiting in the main hall, was in a very anxious mood. She didn't know that the general manager Lin she had used for many years was actually the enemy of the emperor and the empress. Although she had never met Lu Lingzhi, what she learned from Murongyi these days was that Not a lot.

This person is no longer just an enemy of the emperor and queen.

"Your Majesty..." Zhao Ning didn't know the news of Hong Ling's death yet. Seeing Ye Zhen's gloomy face, she felt even more frightened, "My Lady, I really didn't know that Chief Lin was Lu Lingzhi. will tell you."

Seeing Zhao Ning kneeling on the ground, Ye Zhen said flatly, "I believe you don't know. Get up, don't kneel down."

Daimei stepped forward to help Zhao Ning up, and moved a round stool under Ye Zhen's signal.

"But... Lu Lingzhi has been hiding in the palace for many years, no matter what, I have been negligent." Zhao Ning was extremely guilty. If she hadn't been careless, Lu Lingzhi would not have done so many bad things in the capital.

"Indeed, you are indeed responsible for Lu Lingzhi being able to hide in Prince Yi's mansion without being discovered for so many years, but you have never seen Lu Lingzhi, and Ayi is not in the capital, and he was entrusted to you by your father." Confidant, besides trusting him, who else can you trust?" Ye Zhen snorted coldly, "Fortunately, you didn't doubt him, otherwise, he might not even let you go."

Zhao Ning looked up in surprise, hearing what the Empress Dowager meant, did she really not blame her? "Why did Lu Lingzhi become... the chief eunuch? My father never told me his real identity."

Because Zhao Yong wants to use Lu Lingzhi! Ye Zhen hated Zhao Yong's ulterior motives so much, she wanted to give him some medicine when she heard the news that he was critically ill, but now, hehe, let's die soon!

"Your father may not know that he is Lu Lingzhi, maybe...he has other arrangements." Ye Zhen said mockingly.

Zhao Ning lowered his head, "Ma'am, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."

"I believe in you. I believe that if you don't know that he is Lu Lingzhi, the emperor will also believe in the prince. If Ah Yi knew that he was Lu Lingzhi, he would not let him continue to live in the palace. The two maids of Ah Yi back then , I think it was all arranged by Lu Lingzhi." Ye Zhen snorted, "Do you know what Lu Lingzhi has done?"

Zhao Ning said, "Aside from doing business in the palace, he often hides in the house every day. He seems to be in poor health."

Ye Zhen recalled what Duanmuya once said. He said that although Lu Lingzhi survived in Anhe City, his health was very bad, and he could not have any more children. She always thought that Lu Lingzhi's health was too poor. He has become his eunuch.

"Since the emperor has found out his identity, he should know what he has done." Ye Zhen said, "You are still pregnant, go back and rest, don't worry about this matter anymore, but you never The dowry brought back by Qi Guo really needs to be checked carefully, lest there are people from Lu Lingzhi mixed in."

Zhao Ning said hurriedly, "I'll replace them all when I go back and send them back to Qi."

"Go back." Ye Zhen said, "Take good care of yourself and don't worry about this matter anymore."

"Yes, ma'am." Zhao Ning felt guilty and uncomfortable, but what can she do now?
