Chapter 580 It’s so cold in the cold palace
Hearing his shout, it was quiet inside for a while. After a while, the door was opened from the inside. When the girl saw him, she was stunned for a moment, then raised her head and asked:
"Who are you? Men are not allowed to come to this lonely palace. Don't you know?"
Leng Ming's nose tightened, he grabbed the girl's neck, pushed her inside, and asked,
"Let me tell you who I am. I am Leng Ming. I am Prince Ming of Daning Kingdom and the son of Concubine Chang Gui. What did you do to her just now?"
The girl who was strangled by him tried to break free from his restraints, but she couldn't use any strength at all. She could only keep shaking her head and praying with her tears for him to be gentler.
At this moment, Leng Ming suddenly saw Concubine Chang who was tied to a chair. She was unkempt, her eyes were dull, and she had a handkerchief stuffed in her mouth.
She looked at Leng Ming, wanting to say something, and her body was twisting.
"Mother concubine..."
As he said these two words, tears fell from his eyes, and his hands unconsciously let go of the girl's neck.
The girl covered her throat and let out a few heavy breaths, then ran outside and shouted:
"Come here, someone is trying to break into the cold palace, someone is breaking into the cold palace..."
Leng Ming seemed to realize something. He rushed up to the girl, grabbed her neck again, kicked the door shut with one foot, looked at the girl with fire in his eyes, and asked in a cold voice:
"Stinky girl, do you still want to complain? If I kill you now, no one will know about it. Do you believe it?"
The girl's face turned purple as she shook her head vigorously and kept waving her hands, as if begging for mercy.
Concubine Chang kept twisting her body, as if she wanted to stop him from doing so.
Leng Ming let go of his hand again and pushed hard. The girl immediately fell to the ground. Leng Ming looked at her condescendingly and said angrily:
"If you dare to make any more noise, I will strangle you to death."
The girl shook her head vigorously, backed away, and timidly replied:
"Prince Ming, please spare my life. I was wrong. I dare not say any more."
Seeing the girl huddled in the corner, Leng Ming hurriedly stepped forward and untied the rope from Concubine Chang.
Without the restraint of the rope, Concubine Chang hurriedly stood up from the chair. While raising her hands, she looked Leng Ming up and down.
"Ming'er...is it really you? Have you come to see the mother-in-law? Did the mother-in-law see it right?"
"Mother concubine..."
Looking at the pale Concubine Chang Guifei, Leng Ming felt a sense of guilt in his heart. He suddenly knelt down on his knees.
"Concubine, I should have come to see you a long time ago, but I was wrong."
Concubine Chang shook her head vigorously,
"No, Ming'er, this is the Cold Palace. You can't come. If anyone knows that you are here, then you have violated the rules of heaven. Go away quickly. Go away quickly."
"Mother concubine..."
Leng Ming knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily to Concubine Chang. Tears kept falling down his cheeks.
He didn't know what he could do. He really wanted to take his mother and concubine away from here. He couldn't let his mother and concubine live here anymore in such a life of inhumanity and ghosts.
Thinking of this, he stood up from the ground, took Concubine Chang's hand, and said angrily:
"Concubine, follow me. I will take you out of here."
Chang Guifei followed him and took two steps toward the door. Suddenly she called out to him very soberly.
"Ming'er, this is the palace, how can you take me away? Even if you put on wings, you can't fly out. Don't do such futile things. If you are discovered again, your future will be ruined. You
I am very happy to be able to come and see my mother-in-law, so please go back quickly!"
"But I can't let you stay here any longer. This is no place for humans at all!"
"Ming'er, you are confused. Even if you can use brute force to take your mother and concubine away from here, your father will not let us go. You should be more awake!"
Chang Guifei's words made Leng Ming stunned. Yes, the world is so big that it belongs to the kingdom of Daning. Even if he rescues his mother and concubine, he will still have to live a life of hiding in Tibet and never see the light of day.
What's more, it's not easy to take someone out of this heavily guarded palace.
"Concubine, what should I do? Tell me, what should I do to get you out of here? I'll beg my father..."
"No, even if you tell the truth, your father will not agree. The woman who was relegated to the cold palace has become an abandoned child long ago. He will not look at it again. Now the only hope for the mother-in-law is
It’s on you.”
At this point, she turned around and glanced at the girl huddled in the corner, pulled Leng Ming to the side, and said cautiously:
"Ming'er, as long as you become the emperor, my mother and concubine can leave here."
Chang Guifei's words made Leng Ming's face darken. He became the emperor? That would be as difficult as reaching the sky. Even if Leng Yu didn't become the emperor, and Leng Xi would take over, how could he have such a chance?
"Mother, I..."
"Ming'er, don't jump to conclusions prematurely about things you haven't tried before. Now that you've grown up, don't settle for mediocrity. You have to be brave enough to do things you don't dare to think or do. Even if you don't succeed, in the future you will
I won’t regret it either.”
"Concubine, there are my fourth brother and my fifth brother in front of me, so I have no chance!"
"Ming'er, if you want to save my concubine, you can only do it if you become the emperor. Otherwise, my concubine will have to stay here all her life and die here. During this time, she is thinking, if you weren't here,
, the mother-in-law gave herself three feet of white silk and ended this miserable life, but you are also the emperor's son, and the current Prince Ming of Daning Kingdom, you have the same right to fight for the throne as they do, why don't you fight for it?
You are my mother-in-law’s only hope now!”
The longing look in the mother's concubine's eyes made Leng Ming's heart suddenly filled with mixed feelings.
Even if the woman in front of him made a lot of mistakes, she was still his mother-in-law. She was the one who gave birth to him. From childhood to adulthood, although she was too harsh on herself, she never let herself suffer any injustice.
Looking at his mother-in-law's thin face, her messy hair, her tattered clothes, and her deeply sunken eyes, his heart felt like a knife.
He desperately wants to save his mother and concubine, but there is nothing he can do now.
If he really has the chance to become the emperor, then the mother-in-law can come out of the cold palace openly.
Thinking of this, he bit his lip and nodded vigorously,
"Don't worry, mother and concubine, I will do my best."
Concubine Chang stepped forward, took his hand, and patted it gently.
"Ming'er, remember, you still have a chance now. You need to choose your wife well and find someone with a strong family status. This will be helpful to you. If not, you can choose to marry a foreign princess..."
"mother……"
When it comes to marrying a wife, Leng Ming first thinks of Luo Xue. Although Luo Xue's father is the current Protector of Daning Kingdom and has a supreme status, he will definitely support Leng Yu unconditionally, even if he is really lucky enough to marry
Even if he goes to Luoxue, Liu Dechang will not help him.
"I see."
"Then leave quickly. Don't stay here for too long. If someone finds you, you won't be able to explain it."
Seeing that his mother asked him to leave, he suddenly turned his head and glanced at the girl huddled in the corner with a ferocious look. Concubine Chang Guifei probably saw what he was thinking and shook her head at him.
"You can't touch her. Now she's in charge of my food, clothing, housing and transportation. If she dies, my concubine will really starve to death here."
There was an elusive look on Leng Ming's face. He walked slowly to the girl. The girl was so frightened that she trembled and kept pleading with her face pale.
"Prince Ming, please spare your life, I will never dare to do this again."
Leng Ming narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at this girl, held her chin with one hand, and chuckled with an unpredictable expression:
