Reborn as a concubine's sister, the eldest lady went crazy

Chapter 218: Bad News from Southern Xinjiang

Xu Yixing stared at him in surprise, and quickly signaled everyone in the room to leave. Lu Anyuan had been with him for a long time, and his words had become so tactless. Was this something he could say all the time?

"Qiuqing, you have such a big heart!" Xu Yixing pretended to be angry and hit Lu Anyuan's arm, feeling a faint pain in his heart.

Because she didn't want Lu Anyuan to be the emperor at all. To be more precise, she didn't want to be the queen who was high above everyone else, without any feelings, and pretended to be virtuous and generous.

It's hard to imagine that if Lu Anyuan were to become like the emperor in the future, raising more than a dozen children and marrying a palace of beauties, she would really want Ying Si to poison them to death one by one.

For others, the lover's heart may just want the other person to be happy, but for her, it is absolute loyalty and one-way.

It was a pity that she couldn't say it. She knew that Lu Anyuan had wanted to seize the throne before she married into the prince's mansion and before she fell in love with him. She couldn't convince a prince to give up his desire for the throne, so she could only swallow this little bit of pain, pretending that she had never thought about it, and pretending to support him in seizing the throne.

"It's okay. You can talk at home."

Every night after the New Year was so hard to bear. Although Lu Anyuan moved back from the study, he refused to touch Xu Yixing because he refused to let her take the medicine.

But almost every night, Xu Yixing could hear his heavy breathing after kissing.

Damn it, this life is worse than being a widow.

"In fact, the medicine that Ying Si gave me should be very useful, not as good as our..."

"No, are you addicted to pills? You're always thinking about pills."

Xu Yixing's words froze at his lips. Really, don't you see that you are almost a mature shrimp, but you are still being stubborn!

Lu Anyuan slowed down his voice: "It's okay, you have to believe that Mr. Yao will definitely be able to develop a better medicine as soon as possible."

"Hmph, I'd rather trust Ying Si than him. They are two monsters." They are indeed two monsters. Although Xu Yixing doesn't go to Jingxi Temple often, she knows that Ying Si often seeks Mr. Yao for exchanges after being released. The two men, one old and one young, are both crazy!

"It's all right. I just hate that there is no medicine for men in this world. Otherwise, I would take it and you wouldn't have to worry about me."

"Mr. Yao did say that, but I heard the effect was not very good."

"It's fate!" Lu Anyuan turned over and got up, helplessly burying himself in the half-cold bathtub. He didn't go back to bed to rest until his heartbeat stopped. How miserable!

This day was supposed to be uneventful, Xu Yixing had expected Lu Anyuan to go home early for lunch, so he had been waiting. But just like yesterday, the food on the table had gone cold, and he hadn't seen him.

"I shouldn't have waited earlier. Oh!" Xu Yixing asked Xiaoshan to take all the food back, reheat it and bring it back. He wouldn't wait this time!

"His Highness is back!" The announcement instantly made Xu Yixing excited. He hurriedly took a few steps to greet him, but he seemed a little absent-minded.

"There won't be any bad news again..." Xu Yixing felt that he had to live his life according to his mood, which made him laugh.

"Madam, our eldest brother is dead!" Lu Anyuan looked so painful, but Xu Yixing didn't bother to comfort him.

"It's only been less than half a month, how could this happen!" She supported Lu Anyuan with one hand and asked him to sit down. She rolled her eyes and felt something was wrong: "The national war... was lost?"

Although he thought it was impossible, what could have happened to cause a general to die in a foreign land? Xu Yixing couldn't believe it, and his eyes were full of stars. He couldn't tell whether it was because of hunger or fear.

"No, Daxia won. As soon as the Dragon Warriors arrived in Southern Xinjiang, they launched a blitzkrieg with the Southern Xinjiang Army. The war was over in less than two days. The ruler of the Song Kingdom opened the city and surrendered, so my brother did not make things difficult for them and directly led his troops to take over."

This was the national war that Xu Yixing had imagined, with the Great Xia army invincible.

"Since we won, how could the eldest prince die?"

Lu Anyuan raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows hard, as if this could help soothe the sadness between his brows.

"I heard that big brother was not in good health on the way to the war. The area around the south and north of the country was full of smoke and the air was hot and humid. It was winter in the capital, so it was inevitable that he could not adapt to the weather and got dysentery. But big brother was afraid of disrupting the morale of the army, so he didn't tell anyone. After the Song Kingdom surrendered, the surrounding small countries also came to pay homage. There were more banquets and aggravated his illness, and then..."

Lu Anyuan put his hands up to cover his face, but Xu Yixing still saw it. A few inconspicuous tears slipped into his collar.

The eldest prince is a good man. This is the only feeling Xu Yixing has about him. Although the original Lu Junshi was not easy to get along with, it is undeniable that the eldest prince is indeed gentle.

"Hiss! Didn't the emperor have the Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill? Why didn't he bring some for the eldest prince this time?"

Lu Anyuan shook his head through his fingers: "I don't know about this. But even if Big Brother brought it, he might think that there might be others who need it more during the war, so he might refuse to eat it."

Xu Yixing sighed again. If the emperor didn't give it to him, it would mean that he was heartless and didn't take the eldest prince's life seriously. But if the eldest prince had it but didn't eat it, it would mean that he was stupid!

Dysentery is such a serious disease. Does he think he can recover by enduring it for a few days and returning to the capital?

Having said that, after what happened recently, Xu Yixing couldn't help but think about the dark side: "Did he, did he really die of illness?"

Lu Anyuan raised his head and no longer hid his tears: "I don't know, but Madam, I can only guarantee that I didn't do this."

Xu Yixing looked at him with heartache. In fact, if something happened to the eldest prince and the emperor became suspicious, the two feudal lords, Qinan and Qibei, would surely be to blame. It was unknown whether he had been reprimanded by the emperor in the palace.

"Yuan, now that things have come to this, don't be sad anymore."

Sadness is the most useless thing in the world.

"The Emperor has already sent out a team to collect the spirit, and he has also brought along the most powerful corpse officer. He must have some suspicions."

"So who's in charge of leading the team?"

"It's Mr. Liu, the former tutor of my father." Lu Anyuan wiped his face with a handkerchief and he was no longer sad.

"Mr. Liu is already eighty years old, right?" Xu Yixing frowned and calculated his age. If he goes to southern Xinjiang at this age, can he come back alive?

However, this also reflects how suspicious the emperor was about this matter. Not only did he not trust his son and daughter, but even many ministers in the court did not trust him, and he chose to bring out his own teacher as a witness.

I think if the corpse officer really found something wrong, a group of people in the court would be in trouble again.

"Yes, this morning, the news of victory and death came at the same time, and many ministers were stunned. Father almost fainted, and it took Eunuch Kang to rub him for a while before he recovered. Then he invited the old tutor out."
