Pampering the outside room alone? I entered the East Palace to pass on the sick and weak prince

Chapter 389 Emperor’s Heart

Leng Ruqing opened her eyes wide, suddenly feeling that she didn't recognize the young man in front of her.

Before she could speak, Murong Yao turned around indifferently.

There was a cold look in his eyes.

His father would definitely doubt him first about this matter.

After all, Tuoba Ye took Shen Ruoxi hostage and left, so Murong Heng's suspicion became much lighter.

Murong Yao clenched his fingers slightly.

In the initial plan, he and Tuoba Ye agreed to kill Murong Heng.

But Tuoba Ye turned to attack Emperor Renjing.

Not only that, but he also held Shen Ruoxi hostage.

It would not be a loss if Shen Ruoxi could be used to kill Murong Heng, but now it seems that the lunatic Tuoba Ye is not planning to do this.

The matter is a foregone conclusion. Now he can only arouse Emperor Renjing's suspicion of Murong Heng and clear his name.

Emperors have been suspicious since ancient times, and Emperor Renjing was the best among them.

He can take advantage of that.

in situ.

Emperor Renjing looked at the direction Murong Yao left, his eyes gradually filled with deep thought.

Seeing that he remained motionless for a long time, Wang Defu called out softly.

"Your Majesty, what are you looking at?"

"I see that Prince Rui has grown up." Emperor Renjing showed a meaningful smile, and then looked at Wang Defu, "Do you think it was Prince Rui or the prince who betrayed me?"

"Your Majesty, you have scared this old slave... How can I see the situation clearly for a slave like this?"

"Okay, just say whatever you want. If you don't tell me, I will punish you."

"Then... I dare to say something bold, old slave."

Wang Defu had served Emperor Renjing for many years and knew that now he needed someone close to him to speak his mind.

"In this matter, it seems that Prince Rui's suspicion is... greater."

"I thought so too, but now that I think about it carefully, is the prince really innocent?"

Wang Defu handed over.

"This... Tuoba Ye has kidnapped the Crown Princess. As we all know, the Crown Prince regards the Crown Princess as a treasure, so he shouldn't take risks with the Crown Princess. This old slave is shallow and can only see this."

Emperor Renjing was slightly silent.

After this incident happened, after he calmed down, he first suspected Murong Yao.

As he said, every exit of the hunting ground was guarded by elite soldiers. If Tuoba Ye hadn't been assisted by someone, he wouldn't have been able to escape so unnoticed.

After escaping, Shen Ruoxi was also captured.

Murong Heng always valued Shen Ruoxi and logically would not take risks with her.

but……

Between her sweetheart and the imperial power, can Heng'er really choose Shen Ruoxi unswervingly?

Emperor Renjing looked dazed for a moment.

Back then, he thought that Wan'er was everything to him.

But when we got to the back, everything slowly changed.

Emperor Renjing was lost in thought for a moment.

Then he withdrew his gaze and suddenly turned his head and asked.

"Where's Concubine Shu?"

"Back to the emperor, Concubine Shu came here not long ago. You are discussing matters with the courtiers, so I asked her to go back first."

"Why did she come to me?"

"I don't know yet, but Concubine Shu said, Your Majesty, you have finished discussing the matter, please go and see her."

Hearing this, Emperor Renjing remained silent.

He guessed that it was Tuoba Ye's incident that frightened her, fearing that she would be implicated and therefore fall out of favor.

"Go see her."

Emperor Renjing was just about to go over when he saw an eunuch running over in a hurry.

"It's not good, it's not good!"

"Why are you so flustered in front of the Emperor?"

"Eunuch Wang, something happened..."

The little eunuch suddenly knelt down in front of Emperor Renjing: "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu, she...she..."

"She's dead..."

Wang Defu was shocked.

"Bold! Concubine Shu came here to see the emperor just now. Her face is rosy and her body is healthy. Why are you talking nonsense here!"

"I don't dare to talk nonsense. Now the backyard is in chaos. Your Majesty, I don't dare to talk nonsense..."

Before the little eunuch finished speaking, Emperor Renjing was already walking quickly towards the backyard.

……

When Murong Heng came back with Shen Ruoxi, she felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the mansion.

he asked one of them.

"Where is the father?"

"Go back to His Royal Highness, the Emperor is in the backyard."

"backyard?"

"Back to Your Highness, after you left, Concubine Shu...she died. The Emperor is in the backyard at the moment. No one is allowed to go in."

There was a hint of surprise on both of their faces.

"How did you die?"

"Go back to the prince, this servant doesn't know."

Murong Heng turned to look at Shen Ruoxi: "I will take you back first, and then go to the backyard to have a look."

Shen Ruoxi nodded.

Although Concubine Shu's death made her very confused, she was more worried about Tao Ye at the moment.

I heard from Murong Heng that Taoye was seriously injured by that palm and was in coma.

The two of them arrived at their courtyard together.

She couldn't wait to go to the side room to meet Tao Ye.

Opening the door, I saw Taoye leaning on the bed, her face a little pale, and Leng Shuang next to her was feeding her water.

Seeing Shen Ruoxi, both of their faces showed surprise.

"Princess?!"

"Princess!"

Shen Ruoxi walked over anxiously on crutches: "Taoye, are you awake?"

"Well, I'm fine, I'm fine. I'm useless... I can't protect you."

Tao Ye's tears rolled down.

Leng Shuang also looked remorseful.

"This is a subordinate's negligence. Please punish me, Master."

The moment Shen Ruoxi was taken away, her heart twitched and she wanted to chase after him, but she was tightly entangled and watched helplessly as Shen Ruoxi was taken away.

"Both of you, don't blame yourself. As long as everything is fine now."

Shen Ruoxi took Tao Ye's pulse, and it was true that the injury was a bit serious, but fortunately Tao Ye's body was considered strong, and if he took good care of himself, it wouldn't be a big deal.

"Princess, you are also injured..."

"All I suffered were superficial injuries, unlike you, which were all internal injuries." Shen Ruoxi looked at Leng Shuang, "You also suffered internal injuries, right? Don't hold on, I'm fine now, you should go and deal with it quickly."

Leng Shuang nodded.

At this time, the people sent by Murong Heng to inquire about the news also returned.

"His Royal Highness, my subordinates have asked clearly. They said that Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian had a dispute, and then Concubine Shu suddenly fainted and vomited blood, and soon ran out of breath."

"Is there such a thing?"

Shen Ruoxi's face showed surprise: "The two of them just argued and didn't take action?"

"Back to the Crown Princess, no. There were palace maids and nuns nearby who saw clearly and did not take action."

"I know."

Murong Heng waved his hand to signal him to go down.

Seeing Shen Ruoxi's thoughtful expression, he stepped forward to support her.

"No need to think about it, just go and take a look and you will know."

Shen Ruoxi nodded.

After giving some instructions to Tao Ye and Leng Shuang, Shen Ruoxi and Murong Heng returned to their private room.

Murong Heng ordered the maid to take care of her bathing.

After she changed her clothes, Murong Heng found a female doctor to treat her wound. When it was time to bandage it, he sent his servants to do it himself.

The man lowered his eyes slightly, his handsome face looking extremely focused.

Shen Ruoxi moved her feet.

Murong Heng immediately raised his head.

"Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt, it's itchy." Shen Ruoxi laughed, "You moved so lightly, I didn't know, I thought you were tickling me."

"As long as it doesn't hurt."

Murong Heng lowered his eyes again and continued what he was doing.

The wounds on her fair legs looked a bit hideous, and they must have been very painful at the time.

"Aheng."

"what happened?"

Murong Heng raised his eyes and met her gaze.

Shen Ruoxi said.
