Bongjun's Life and Death Tribulation

It was quiet in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, with green smoke floating in the Yunlongwen three-legged incense burner, He Lan Ruoming was lying on his side on the couch with his eyes closed, resting his mind, the previous discomfort exhausted him, and he was lethargic and drowsy. But there is a strange impetuousness in my heart, and I can't live in peace no matter what.

He tossed and turned and changed his posture, and after an unknown amount of time, he heard Xiao Linzi calling in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the three father-in-laws in charge of the execution are already waiting outside the palace."

"Tell." He Lan Ruoming opened his eyes and sat up straight.

The door was pushed open, and the sound of sporadic footsteps approached little by little, and finally stopped outside the gauze curtain.

"Slave pays respects to the emperor, all blessings to the emperor!" The three eunuchs said in unison and knelt in front of the tent.

He Lan Ruoming lowered his head, slowly turned the jade wrench on his finger, and asked: "The execution is over?"

"Go back to the emperor, fifty sticks, not one stick will fall."

"In your opinion, how long can he survive today's injury?"

"This..." the eunuch in charge of the prison stammered, "If it is an ordinary person, he will be healed after applying the best gold-chuang medicine and lying on his stomach for [-] to [-] days. It will be fine in the coming day.”

When He Lan Ruoming heard this, he somehow recalled the scene he had seen before, and his heart contracted violently again. After finally recovering, he heard someone asking at the door: "What if there is no medicine?"

As soon as I heard the voice, I knew it was Xiang A Duo, and I saw that she was wearing a purple imperial concubine dress, with a golden step on her head, lifting up the light gauze curtain with a smile on her face, and walked to He Lan Ruoming to sit in front of her with small steps. Down.

He Lan Ruoming habitually put his palms lightly on Xiang A Duo's belly, "You are pregnant, so don't be tired."

"The concubine is not tired." Xiang A Duojiao smiled and turned his head, glanced at the three eunuchs still kneeling on the ground and said, "Who can answer the question I asked just now?"

"My lady, if you don't apply the medicine, the wound will easily fester, and then you will have a fever. If the fever doesn't go away and the wound continues to deteriorate, maybe..."

"Maybe you will die?" Xiang A Duo smiled cheerfully, covered his mouth with one hand and said, "Look, I scared you, will I eat you? Don't worry, just for what I just said, I will reward you too! "

"Slave dare not, slave does not dare!" The eunuch who replied was frightened and kowtowed.

"Why don't you dare? The concubine will reward you if she says so! You all stand back and follow Xiao Linzi to receive the reward."

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Noble Concubine!"

After the three eunuchs and Xiao Linzi retreated together, Xiang A Duo snuggled into He Lan Ruoming's arms, "If Chu Xiran died of illness, the courtiers would have nothing to say, right?"

"That's natural."

He Lan Ruoming felt uncomfortable when he heard the word "death".

Seeing his absent-minded appearance, he lowered his face to A Duo, and then said: "The emperor hasn't been to Lan Ronghua's place for a long time, my sister reads it very fast, the emperor will turn over her green card today."

"Okay!" He Lan Ruoming nodded obediently, but the pain in his body was deeper.

"What's wrong? It hurts again?" Xiang A Duo stretched out his hand to comfort his chest back and forth, and then quietly bit the tip of his index finger, sticking it to his lips.

He Lan Ruoming, who was clearly delirious, finally calmed down after licking Xiang A Duo's blood, and slowly closed his eyes.

"Go to sleep, it won't hurt when you wake up." Xiang A Duo watched He Lan Ruoming leaning on his shoulder and fell asleep, his originally gentle eyes instantly became indifferent, "Xiao Linzi."

"The slave is here."

"The emperor is tired, you serve him to lie down."

After handing Helan Ruoming to Xiao Linzi, Xiang A Duo returned to Tishun Hall.As soon as he entered the room, he saw Huo Feier sitting at the table with a letter on it.

"The imperial concubine came to see, there is good news." Huo Fei'er was overjoyed, and when she saw Xiang A Duo, she didn't get up to greet her, she just waved, "There are several ministers in the court who are willing to submit to the prince."

Although Xiang A Duo was unhappy, he didn't say anything. After sitting down, he took the letter and read it carefully, and said: "So as long as I can give birth to the prince, everything will be settled?"

"I will definitely give birth to a prince! I have prepared everything for the concubine, there will be no contingencies!" Huo Feier picked up a corner of the letter paper, put it on the candle and lit it, "As long as Chu Xiran is away, the rest of the concubine Lan Ruoxi is nothing to be afraid of as a young child, Tiancheng's country is naturally the prince's."

The letter paper thrown into the brazier was burned to ashes in an instant, and the choking smell made A Duo cough again and again. She covered her nose with a handkerchief and stepped back, then asked: "Then if the baby is a daughter, can you send it to me?" Go to our village to raise them?"

"Both men and women are He Lan Ruoming's children, do you think the prince will keep him?" Huo Feier sat upright on his seat, pulled out another letter from his sleeve and put it on the table, "If you Want to have children, but are you afraid of not having them in the future? By the way, this is a letter from the Great Wizard, remember to burn it after reading it.”

When Xiang A Duo heard the word "Great Wizard", his gloomy eyes suddenly brightened, "How is he?"

"Very well, I already entered Beijing yesterday, the young prince will find a way to arrange for the empress to meet the great wizard."

Seeing A Duo's happy face, Huo Fei'er raised the corners of her lips in satisfaction, "The noble concubine Chu Xiran has to work harder, if he doesn't die, we will have endless troubles."

In Nagato Palace, Chu Xiran was lying on the bed. He changed into a clean undershirt and his trousers fell to his thighs. Xiao Shunzi knelt by the bed and carefully applied the medicine for him.

"Is the master in pain? Can you call the imperial doctor to see?"

"Do you think we can hire an imperial doctor now?" Chu Xiran gasped suddenly, obviously the wound was touched, and he gritted his teeth in pain, "It's Amitabha who can get the medicine! Fortunately, it's a coincidence strength, and did not hurt the internal organs.”

Speaking of this, Chu Xiran said sternly: "Standing is just the beginning, it's time to show the fox's tail."

At this moment, there was a loud sound of footsteps outside the house, and then a group of eunuchs slammed open the door and rushed into the house.

Xiao Shunzi quickly lifted one side of the quilt to cover Chu Xiran, put the medicine bottle in his hand down his cuff, ran forward to stop the crowd, and after a closer look, he realized that the leader was the eunuch Xiao Xiang who was in front of A Duo. Fuzi.

Little Fuzi was proudly lifting his chin, and said indifferently: "From now on, the queen's salary and all expenses are the same as changing clothes from the eighth rank, and there is nothing more. Therefore, the extra things here, the servants can take care of." Take it back!"

"Nonsense, these are our master's previous things, why do you accept them?"

"These are from the Yonghe Palace, not from the Nagato Palace, so they must be collected according to the order!"

"How dare you!" Xiao Shunzi roared.

"Let them take it."

Chu Xiran, who was lying on the bed, suddenly spoke. Xiao Shunzi gave him an aggrieved look, and had no choice but to step back and watch the whole room being removed, not even a single teacup was spared, not to mention being taken away. Wound medicine in a carved sandalwood box.

"This won't work!" Seeing an eunuch holding a medicine storage jar and about to leave, Xiao Shunzi rushed up anxiously, "Master is injured, so these medicine powders are indispensable."

"Take it away!" Xiao Fuzi pushed the eunuch out of the door and stood in front of Xiao Shunzi. "The emperor issued an order to take it away, so no one can be left behind. If the queen needs medicine, go to the imperial hospital to ask for it." Yes."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Fuzi came to the bedside. He glanced at the dark green silk embroidered brocade quilt covering Chu Xiran, squinted his eyes and smiled and said, "Yo, this quilt doesn't look like it can be used for eight-rank changing clothes. A servant can use it." It has to be taken away."

After all, he pinched the orchid and was about to uncover the quilt, but saw Chu Xiran glance at him coldly, "How dare you!"

Chu Xiran's voice was not high, but there was a cold light in his eyes, like a dagger piercing into people's hearts, Xiao Fuzi trembled in fright, rubbed his hands back a little bit, and said awkwardly: "I don't dare, I don't dare."

"If you don't dare, just go away, you should accept what should be accepted, don't get in my eyes here!"

Although Chu Xiran was lying on his stomach, how could a young eunuch be able to resist the ruthlessness he experienced?After hearing this, Xiao Fuzi naturally didn't dare to stay any longer, and told everyone to lift up and take away, and soon evacuated from Nagato Palace.

The room was finally quiet again, Xiao Shunzi looked around the empty surroundings, and said angrily, "Those slaves who prey on others! They are just taking advantage of the fire!"

"If there is no one to support them, would they dare?" Chu Xiran raised her body, not only was not annoyed, but smiled and said: "Although I know they will do it sooner or later, I really didn't expect Xiang A Duo to be so impatient and want to go first." Get rid of me."

Xiao Shunzi was squatting halfway beside the bed. Hearing what his master said, he slapped his head suddenly, then slipped out the bottle of trauma medicine he was using earlier from his sleeve, and held it in his hand.

"Their real purpose is to collect this?"

"I was punished with fifty sticks, and there was no medicine to apply, and it was impossible for the imperial doctor to come to Nagato Palace. After all, Xiang A Duo just wanted to wait for me to die."

"This way she will have a chance to sit in the back seat."

"You're half right." Chu Xiran's smile gradually subsided, and his expression became more dignified, "If I die, the prince will definitely be deposed, and when Xiang A Duo gives birth to a prince, he will be crowned prince. If at that time There will be an accident tomorrow, and the crown prince will ascend the throne naturally. In this world, I am afraid that the owner will change."

"They want to rebel?" Xiao Shunzi opened his mouth wide.

"I wish I was unfounded."

Xiao Shunzi scratched his head and said doubtfully: "The slaves are confused. Since they want to rebel, why do they deliberately lure the master back to the palace? Wouldn't it be easier for them to act when the master is not in the palace? Or, in the middle of our return to the palace Wouldn’t it be easier to send people to intercept and kill them on the road?”

"Don't forget, I am the empress who is proclaimed by the emperor. Even if I don't return to the palace, the empress still belongs to me. If the emperor has any accidents, no matter which prince takes the throne, I will be the empress dowager. Besides, I am As a descendant of the Chu family, and holding a dragon, phoenix and chicken heart pendant, I can dispatch troops from various battalions at any time, but I still hide in the south of the Yangtze River to hide my name, so they are afraid of me, so they have to use tricks to lure me back to the palace to catch a turtle in an urn, so that I can live forever There will be no future troubles."

Hearing this, Xiao Shunzi suddenly realized, and said worriedly: "Isn't the master very dangerous?"

"So from now on, we must be vigilant, and we must never make a wrong step."

In the middle of the night, the wind blew up, and the dilapidated wooden door of the Nagato Palace was creaked, which sounded very strange in the dark night.

Chu Xiran had always been a light sleeper, and because of the pain, he couldn't sleep well. He felt a gust of cold wind blowing in in a daze. He opened his eyes suddenly, groped under the pillow with one hand, took out the dagger for self-defense, and pushed He picked up Xiao Shunzi who was sleeping beside the bed.

After waking up, Xiao Shunzi came to his senses very quickly, and immediately stood up to protect Chu Xiran, tightly holding the knife that had been hidden in his cuff.

Just when the two were wondering, the candlelight in the room was instantly lit up, and through the faint orange light, Chu Xiran could clearly see the figure standing three steps away.

To be precise, there are two people in front of him, one in front and one behind, one short and one tall, one thinner and the other muscular. If you look carefully, the one in front is dressed as a person from Jiangnan, while the one in the back is dressed a bit. strangeness.

"Who are you?" Chu Xiran's eyes swept over the two, and finally fixed on the face of the person in front.

"Zhao Yuening."

The man who called himself Zhao Yuening took a step forward, and it was only then that Chu Xiran could truly see his facial features clearly.

I saw his chubby baby face engraved with facial features that were [-]% similar to Zhao Yueru's, but there was a small scar on the left side of his face, which ruined the original delicate face.

"Are you Zhao Yuening?"

"Otherwise, who do you think I am?" Zhao Yuening pouted and said unhappily, "My sister said you asked me for help. I thought you would be moved to tears when you saw me, but who would have suspected me! It's really heartbreaking! I'm leaving, you can undo the Gu in your family yourself!"

"Wait!" Seeing that Zhao Yuening left as soon as he said it, Chu Xiran was taken aback, but before he got up, the man who had been standing behind Zhao Yuening suddenly grabbed his collar and threw him away back.

"Yue Ning, now is not the time to play." The man approached, his dark face had profound features, and he looked like a foreigner.

"You are?" Chu Xiran put on his coat and got out of bed.

"Although my Hei Lin is very handsome, there's no need for you to get so close, right?" Zhao Yuening hugged Hei Lin like an eight-legged octopus, staring at Chu Xiran, full of displeasure, "Go, go, go, Take ten steps back."

"Yue Ning, stop making trouble, come down." Hei Lin showed a helpless and indulgent smile: "I came all the way to the capital, not here to play, so talk well."

"Got it!" Zhao Yuening reluctantly let go of his hand, and let Heilin help him straighten his clothes. Then he put away his foolish look, straightened his face and said again, "My name is Zhao Yuening, and I belong to Zhao Yueru. Brother, as for the man next to me named Hei Lin, he is the apprentice of Miao Wangzhai Wu God, that is, the next Wu God. We are here to help you, of course, I will settle the payment with you afterwards!"

"According to the information I have received, you will take at least three or four days to arrive."

"Why are you so suspicious?" Zhao Yuening shrugged, took Hei Lin's arm and said, "It was this person who said he wanted to arrive early, so we rushed day and night!"

"This time it involves the people in our Miaowang village. I have been tracking him down for a long time. I heard that he has also arrived in the capital recently."

"You mean the great wizard who taught A Duo Gu skills?" Chu Xiran asked in surprise.

"To be precise, he is my senior brother, but he has already been expelled from the clan." Hei Lin nodded and said, "I have one condition. I must bring this person back to the clan leader and master to deal with."

"Okay!" Chu Xiran's eyes fell on the dog-shaped jade pendant pinned to Hei Lin's waist. He had heard Zhuang Concubine Zhao Yueru mention this pendant, and now that he saw it with his own eyes, he felt at ease.

"As far as we know so far, that idiot emperor must have been hit by the Peach Blossom Gu, but it is still uncertain whether he has been hit by other Gu techniques or spells. We have to see his people with our own eyes, but you don't need to worry about this, we have our own way to get close He. However, you need to prepare three things, namely his hair, nails and blood."

After Zhao Yuening finished speaking, he saw Hei Lin take out three small gourd bottles from the bag. The bodies of the three bottles were all black, with golden totems painted on them, but they were only half the size of a finger.

Hei Lin handed three gourd bottles to Chu Xiran, and added: "These three gourd bottles are filled with talisman water, one contains three or four hairs, one contains a small nail, and the last one, you have to take it Just a drop of blood mixed into the bottle."

"How many days do I have?"

"The sooner the better."

Before Zhao Yuening finished speaking, Hei Lin suddenly covered his mouth with his hand. Chu Xiran was also alert at the same time. After exchanging glances with Hei Lin, Hei Lin nodded and extinguished the candlelight with a wave of his palm. .

I saw a figure sneaking into the room in the dark, and Hei Lin jumped to his side, and was about to grab the man's shoulder, but saw him slip his shoulders and dodge.

A white light flashed, the man showed his dagger, and was about to kill Hei Lin, but Zhao Yuening lit a candle at this moment.

"Who are you?" Chu Xiran rushed forward at some point, and stood in front of the man in black with a dagger in one hand, only to realize that this man was a head shorter than him, "Are you a woman?"

"Who are they?" It was indeed a woman's voice.

"You are strange. We asked you first, but you asked us instead?" Zhao Yuening poked his head out from behind Hei Lin's shoulder to look at the man in black, and said after tsk-tsk: "The figure is pretty good, my lord He is also a person who loves the fragrance and cherishes the jade, so you can recruit yourself."

The woman in black looked around Zhao Yuening and Hei Lin, and asked, "Are you Zhao Yuening?"

After finishing speaking, regardless of Zhao Yuening's surprise, she withdrew the dagger in her hand, suddenly turned around and knelt down towards Chu Xiran, "Your subordinate, Shadow Guard, see Master."

"Dark guard?" Even Chu Xiran was puzzled this time, "Who the hell are you?"

The woman in black pulled down her mask and raised her head. A dignified and beautiful face was clearly presented in front of everyone under the light of the candle.

"Su Nianyao?" Even Chu Xiran was taken aback, he really couldn't think of this athletic woman with the always soft and weak Su Meiren.

"Su Nianyao is the subordinate's real name, the master can be called the subordinate Yingxin."

"Why are you a secret guard?"

"My elder brother Su Zhiyuan and I were orphans. We almost starved to death on the street back then. Fortunately, the emperor who was the prince at that time rescued us. Since then, we have been loyal to the emperor both openly and secretly."

"If I remember correctly, you entered the palace in the ninth year of Meiji."

"Yes, it was the draft in the autumn of the ninth year of Meiji, and it was also the year when the master was named empress. The subordinates were originally assigned as shadow guards, but before the draft that year, the emperor gave his subordinates the title of secret guard. Tokens, let the subordinates enter the palace to protect the safety of the master. Therefore, the subordinates are the hidden guards that belong only to the queen."

"No wonder he was able to know when there was any trouble." Chu Xiran withdrew the dagger and handed it to Xiao Shunzi beside him, then smiled wryly, "Protection? Maybe it's more appropriate to say surveillance?"

"Protection? Wouldn't it be more appropriate to say surveillance?"

"master……"

Yingxin was eager to defend, but was interrupted by Chu Xiran waving his hand, "Get up, stop kneeling."

"Why are you so weird? People say it's protection, but you keep guessing, and you're sad after guessing! Can't you think about the good? No wonder you always look sad!"

Zhao Yuening's chin was still resting on Hei Lin's shoulder, wrinkling his nose with disdain, "If you really think he suspects you, and you suspect him too, then don't come begging me to save someone, it's better if you shoot him twice, he Life or death, what does it have to do with you? It’s a simple thing for two people to be together, I really don’t know what you are wronged every day, like me and Xiaolin, there has never been so much bullshit!"

"You are you, our master is our master, can it be the same?" Xiao Shunzi exclaimed angrily.

"What's the matter? Look down on our little Linzi? He is the next generation of witch gods! Do you know how noble his status is? But he ran away with me! Do you think it's easy for us?"

"To shut up!"

Hei Lin glanced at Zhao Yuening, only then did he realize that he had slipped up, and quickly hung on to Hei Lin as if to please him.

"So they eloped." Chu Xiran was amused. Seeing Zhao Yuening blushing, he turned to Yingxin and said, "Don't worry, I understand his painstaking efforts."

Hearing this, Yingxin took out a medicine bottle from his sleeve and put it on the table, "Just in case, the emperor has kept some high-quality wound medicine here, which is better than ordinary medicine, and has It has the effect of relieving pain and healing scars. Today, my subordinates came to deliver the medicine in the middle of the night when they heard that something happened to the queen and the palace was searched."

"I'm short of good medicine, thank you!" Xiao Shunzi happily put away the medicine bottle, opened it and smelled it, the peppermint smell was mixed with the calming flower fragrance, it smelled very good, "Yo, my servant remembers This medicine, the emperor used it for our master back then, and the master relied on it to recover from his injuries..."

Xiao Shunzi shut his mouth abruptly. He remembered that it was exactly after the old General Chu was beheaded. He Lan Ruoming's resoluteness at that time and the tragic scene that happened in the Yonghe Palace were the eternal wounds in Chu Xiran's heart.

"I also remember the smell, it's really the medicine, and only he has it." Chu Xiran didn't think so.

"I said, have you guys been chattering away?" Zhao Yuening yawned on the sidelines with a lazy look, "Let's go back and rest first, and we will come back in three days. I hope you can put Those three things are ready! Remember, no matter what method you use, you must get it! Otherwise, you will bear the consequences.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Hei Lin picked him up by the waist, nodded his head as a greeting, and then jumped out of Nagato Palace, and disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye.

"Is he a ghost?" Xiao Shunzi was dumbfounded.

"He's not a ghost, he's the supreme descendant of the witch god." Yingyue floated to the ground without knowing when, still wearing his bronze mask, "Master, we've found it."

Chu Xiran's eyes sparkled instantly, and the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously.

"Whether it's the great wizard or Huo Zheng, they only work for one person, and that person is the late emperor's elder brother││The former deposed prince Helanjiade."

"Helan Jiade? Didn't he remember that he disappeared as a commoner 25 years ago?"

Helan Jiade is the elder brother of the same mother of the first emperor, who was established as a prince at birth, and was later deposed because he lingered in the place of fireworks.After the first emperor ascended the throne, he was made a prince, but unfortunately he had been harboring evil intentions, and was eventually demoted to a commoner and exiled in the northwest area. There were even rumors that he had already died in the desert. How could he have anything to do with the people of Miao Village?

"According to the investigation, Helan Jiade sneaked into the western Hunan area after changing his name and surname, and became a big businessman traveling between Jiangnan and western Hunan. He has been engaged in the jewelry and fur business. After decades of accumulation, he can be regarded as a rich man. There are also rumors that he Colluded with the bandits in western Hunan, they have already set up camp there, so it can be said that it is Helanjiade’s old den. Before the floods in western Hunan, and the embezzlement and embezzlement of disaster relief money by officials, he was the mastermind behind the scenes.”

"Treason? Usurping the throne? That old guy is not too young, why is he still thinking about it so much?"

"Helan Jiade has an ambitious son named Helan Ruoying, who is two years older than the emperor. He is vicious and treacherous. He is a well-known profiteer. Many honest businessmen have suffered from him, and his reputation is very bad. "

"It seems that the real mastermind behind the scenes should be He Lan Ruoying." Chu Xiran thought for a moment, and then asked, "Can you find out who else is colluding with them?"

"At least [-]% of the civil servants have been in contact with Huo Zheng, but it is still unclear which ones are already theirs."

"Thirty percent?" Chu Xiran narrowed her eyes, staring at the dancing candles in a daze for a while, then turned to look at Yingxin: "According to your observation, which concubines in the harem have recently gotten close to Huo Feier or A Duo What? You write down the list to Shadow Moon and let him look it up.”

"Yes."

When Yingyue and Yingxin both left, it was close to Yinshi, and Chu Xiran felt exhausted after being tortured with a cane all night.Seeing his pale face, Xiao Shunzi quickly helped him to the bedside.

"Master, lie on your stomach, the slave will give you medicine." Xiao Shunzi picked up the medicine bottle that Yingxin brought.

"No need." Chu Xiran shook his head, "It's not the time to take medicine yet."

"No medicine?"

"Go get some cold water in."

"What do you need cold water in the middle of the night?" Xiao Shunzi had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Do you still remember how I made myself sick for a long time?" Chu Xiran lay on the bed and smiled slightly, with a sly look in his eyes.

"Master, you are still injured, so don't mess around."

"I don't want my child to be caught by a wolf. If you don't be cruel to yourself, how can you let someone get caught?" Chu Xiran's eyes changed, and he stroked the white jade dragon and phoenix heart pendant and said sharply: "They are waiting for me to die, how can I You don’t have to put on a good show for them to see!”

In the early morning of that day, Chu Xiran had a wound infection and developed a high fever.On the next day, with no imperial doctor to see him and no medicine available, his condition worsened, and the news spread to every corner of the harem was even more varied. Some said that he fell into a coma and would not wake up for a long time, and some said that he breathed out too much. At least, there are more bold ones, directly saying that he will be finished in a few days.

When Xiang A Duo heard the news, he was so happy from ear to ear, but Huo Feier on the other side looked confused.

"Would it be a little smoother?"

"What are you suspecting? Afraid he's pretending to be sick?" Xiang A Duo covered his mouth with a smile, "Don't worry, I've thought about this a long time ago. After noon, I will take the imperial doctor to see him with the emperor." He will know if it is true or not.”

"Can't you just go and see it? Do you want to take the emperor with you?"

"Hey, sister, have you forgotten? It was a decree earlier that no one except the emperor should approach the Nagato Palace. If I go by myself, if something happens to him, Chu Xiran, no one else will say that I murdered him? So it is only natural that the emperor is present, and it is only natural for me to go, if there is an emergency, it will be easy!" Speaking of this, Xiang A Duo suddenly laughed, leaned towards Huo Feier, wiped his neck with his fingers and said: "Why don't we just go this time..."

"No!" Huo Fei'er put down the flower piece in his hand, and said softly: "Murdering the queen is a capital crime. Don't forget that there are still a group of loyal people in this palace. First of all, Jin Yiwei is not easy to mess with. There are also three thousand battalions. Many of them are former subordinates of the Chu family, and there are still some old officials in the court who cannot be tempted, we must not be self-defeating! In order to let the prince assist the government in the future, we have to take every step, and we must not be too hasty!"

"It's okay, he won't live long anyway." Xiang A Duo didn't care, in her heart, the current Chu Xiran was just a tiger whose teeth and claws had been pulled out to her, without any threat.

"I heard that the power of the Murong family was so powerful that it could be easily uprooted by him. Do you really think he is easy to deal with? We'd better be careful!" Huo Feier was careful.

Although it is already the season of summer and autumn, the time in the afternoon is especially hot and dry, not to mention the Nagato Palace, which does not have anything to cool off the heat.

Xiao Shunzi sat on the edge of the bed and fanned Chu Xiran with a banana fan used by ordinary people, while wiping his scalding forehead with a handkerchief soaked in cold water, he was so anxious that he almost burst into tears.

"Master, such a method of cooking is not the answer."

"If you can't endure it, you have to endure it." Chu Xiran was lying on the bed, her face was as white as paper, her forehead and neck were covered with sweat, and she was so weak that even her voice was light.

Xiao Shunzi still wanted to persuade him, but the door outside was suddenly pushed open, which caught him off guard.

"The emperor is here! The imperial concubine is here!"

This time Xiao Shunzi recognized Xiao Linzi's voice, looked up at him, and immediately saw the imperial doctor behind Xiao Linzi.

"Doctor Wang, take a good look for me. Is my queen really dying?" He Lan Ruoming raised his hand, and immediately two eunuchs jumped out and rushed forward to drag Xiao Shunzi away. Shaking to the side of the bed, he glanced at Chu Xiran who was lying on his stomach, "Why doesn't my queen get up and salute me? She doesn't understand the rules."

"The concubine is seriously ill and can't get up, so I ask the emperor to forgive me."

When Chu Xiran opened his mouth, his voice was so hoarse that it was a little torn, which frightened He Lan Ruoming. He took a step back, lowered his head slightly and looked at Chu Xiran's face carefully. Panicked and uncomfortable, as if a boulder was pressing on his chest, making him unable to breathe.

"What's the matter, Your Majesty?" Xiang A Duo stood at the door unintentionally approaching, but when he saw He Lan Ruoming's strange expression, he quickly stepped forward and held his slightly trembling palm, "Your Majesty, I'd better let Doctor Wang show it to the Queen first." Let's see."

"En!" He Lan Ruoming nodded blankly, but his eyes were fixed on Chu Xiran and never left.

Doctor Wang Yu took Chu Xiran's pulse, looked at his red and swollen wound, and just shook his head repeatedly.

"How?" Xiang A Duo didn't shy away, and asked directly.

"The wound is already infected, and it will fester after a few more days, and it will be even more difficult to treat. The most terrible thing is that the queen's high fever has not subsided, and she has already hurt her body. If she doesn't take good medicine to recuperate... I'm afraid... and the environment It's not suitable for recuperating." Doctor Wang wiped his cold sweat while answering.

"Come on, you go back first."

"What?" Doctor Wang was just about to sit down and write a prescription, but he was dumbfounded when he heard this.

"I told you to go down, didn't you hear?" Xiang A Duo let go of He Lan Ruoming and walked to Royal Physician Wang, "If someone asks you, just say that the queen has prescribed medicine, understand?"

"But... this..." Doctor Wang looked at He Lan Ruoming begging for help.

"According to the imperial concubine's wishes." He Lan Ruoming said impatiently, rubbing his aching temples.

"The minister obeys the order."

When things got to this point, Royal Physician Wang, who was originally timid and fearful of trouble, immediately shut up. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that the emperor wanted the queen's life deliberately.Thinking of this, his heart pounded, his legs trembled, and he finally exited Nagato Palace.
