"The empress hanged herself?!" Bai Guo was shocked, and looked at Xie Lin in a daze.

Xie Lin only patted the back of his hand comfortingly, and said in a low voice with the prince: "How is the empress's phoenix body now?"

The little eunuch ran in a hurry, took two deep breaths and said: "The Queen's Empress was rescued in time by the maid who was close to her, and she is still in a coma. Doctor Feng and the others rushed to Weiyang Palace overnight."

"What about the father?" the prince asked worriedly.

The little eunuch swallowed, shook his body and said: "Your Majesty is furious, right now he is in Weiyang Palace, saying..."

The prince's heart tightened, and he frowned, "What did you say?"

The little eunuch knelt down on the ground with a "thud", and said in a trembling voice, not daring to lift his head, "Your Majesty said, you want to abolish the Empress! I beg Your Highness the Crown Prince to hurry up and save the empress!"

The prince's heart beat violently, his face turned pale.

Little Huangsun didn't understand what happened, but he felt the change in the atmosphere around him.Staying in Wen Sushu's embrace with a cute face, the little Huangsun carefully rubbed his tired eyes with one hand, and clutched Wen Sushu's front lapel restlessly.

Wen Sushu raised his hand to cover the eyebrows of the young grandson, and said to the prince Xie Zhao in a low voice: "Your Highness, your Highness, go to Weiyang Hall to have a look. Your Majesty may be angry and say something, so don't take it seriously. How about it, now only the health of the empress's body is the most important thing."

Xie Zhao calmed down and held Wen Sushu's hand: "You are right."

The little grandson can't be left alone, no matter how worried Wen Sushu is about Xie Zhao, he can only go back and settle the little grandson properly, and then think about it.

And Xie Zhao, accompanied by Xie Lin and Bai Guo, hurried to Weiyang Palace overnight.

After nightfall, the Weiyang Palace is brightly lit, half a month has passed since I came to the summer palace, and this is the busiest time to watch in the Xinhou's bedroom.

Stepping into the Weiyang Palace, Bai Guo keenly heard the mournful weeping of the maids in the bedroom, and in the outer hall also heard the news of several concubines who came overnight and several important ministers accompanying them, everyone looked concerned, But there are also some people who have some unconcealed gloating and joy in the depths of their eyes.

Concubine Bao, the head of the concubines, was the one with the calmest complexion. Her expression was mournful, as if she was very sad and moved by the Queen's suicide. Seeing the arrival of the prince, she slightly raised her eyes and reminded the prince softly: "His Royal Highness is still Don't go in yet, Imperial Physician Feng and the others are doing their best to treat the empress, everything will be discussed after the diagnosis and treatment are completed."

Xie Lin blocked the movement of the prince who was about to step into the inner hall, and a look of powerlessness flashed in his eyes.

He is the son of the middle palace, and he has been close to his maternal grandfather's family since he was a child. Later, when his mother died of illness, his maternal grandfather's family sent his mother's younger sister to the palace. It's just a prominent position.Xie Zhao has experienced the blows of the successive deaths of his aunt and wife, and has incomprehensible resentment against his ancestor for insisting on sending the daughter of the Ning family into the palace. How could he survive this, but he passed away in a short period of time, and his grandfather was kicked out of the vortex of the imperial court by his father because of the sudden death of his young son. A few months passed, and the Ning family became visible to the naked eye. Speed's family was left in the cold, and even though the new post was still chosen for the daughter of the Ning family, everything was of no avail.

This should be called his aunt's successor, and his life is not as good as his mother's. Once entered the deep palace, it will quickly wither like a flower.Xie Zhao has no time to think about what the new empress has done in the harem to win the favor and attention of his father, because she is the daughter of the Ning family, the only bloodline of the direct line of the Ning family who is stable and alive, no matter what, he Both have to keep each other.

Thinking in this way, Emperor Jin Yuan walked out of the room with a face as dark as ink.

Behind him were several imperial physicians who were wiping sweat from their brows. The leading imperial physician Feng looked quite calm, but the slightly trembling hands holding the medicine box under his long sleeves revealed the fear in his heart.

"Father!" The prince took a step forward, hesitant to speak.

Emperor Jin Yuan waved his hand, without even looking at him, he just walked up to Concubine Bao and sat down.

Concubine Bao saw the word "Chuan" twisted between his brows, stood up carefully and massaged the temples of the temples for Emperor Jin Yuan, drooping her eyes and not daring to speak.

"Tell me, what happened to the empress first?" After a while, the casual voice of Emperor Jin Yuan came to mind in the quiet hall.

Imperial Physician Feng stepped forward cautiously and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the empress is not in any serious condition, but she was suffocated too much earlier, so she is still in a coma and cannot wake up."

Hearing this, the prince secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

People safe is good.

But before he could rest assured, Emperor Jin Yuan slowly opened his eyes and said in an emotionless voice: "Then tell me, can the queen's madness be cured?"

Doctor Feng's forehead broke out in cold sweat. He felt the coercion in Emperor Jin Yuan's eyes, and the unbelievable astonishment from the crown prince. He prostrated himself in front of the hall, his head drooping heavily on the ground, and said in a breathless voice: "Reply, report back to Your Majesty, the empress's madness... Forgive me for my shallow medical skills, really, really can't guarantee..."

When did the empress get mad?

Seeing Imperial Physician Feng's trembling appearance, Bai Guo pursed her lips tightly, with a bit of puzzlement in her eyes.

He was not the only one who was also puzzled and astonished, even Concubine Bao and all the courtiers showed a little shock in disbelief.

"Since it can't be cured..." Emperor Jin Yuan closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, and said to everyone in the room in a deep voice, "Queen Ning is immoral, she acts insane, and embarrasses the head of the harem. Any objections?"

The few courtiers who were as quiet as chickens were immersed in the royal scandal of the queen's insanity, which was hard to digest. Suddenly, they were called by Emperor Jin Yuan to ask for the opinion of the abolished queen. They knelt on the ground at the same time, and subconsciously said: "Your Majesty, absolutely not!"

"Why not?" Emperor Jin Yuan asked lightly.

Some of the courtiers were still sober and rational. Hearing the words, he hurriedly said: "The empress is the master of the harem, and the example of women in the world. If the reason of deposing the empress is just because of illness, the common people may find it difficult to accept it, and it is most likely to be shaken." People's hearts!"

The crown prince Xie Zhao also stood up in a daze at this time, raised the hem of his clothes, and solemnly knelt down: "I beg my father...to take back my life."

Emperor Jin Yuan tapped his fingers on the back of the chair, and his eyes fell on Xie Zhao with a bit of confusion, but finally he only said: "Since the prince and all the lovers pleaded for the queen, I retract the words of dethrone, but the queen is insane. What's more, according to my decree, from today onwards, the queen will be confined in the Weiyang Palace, and she will be given a blue lantern and a Buddhist hall to nourish her insane and obsessive temperament... When will the illness recover, and when will the time limit for her confinement be released. "

After saying that, Emperor Jin Yuan got up and took Baofei out of Weiyang Palace without looking back.

Xie Zhao knelt on the spot, with the cold sweat on his back soaking his clothes. Just now, he was sure for a moment that the father might really want to dethrone the new empress——

It turned out that they refused to keep even the last bit of face and dignity of the Ning family.

He was lifted up by the eunuch beside him in a daze, and then returned to the dormitory in a daze. When Xie Zhao raised his eyes, he could only vaguely see the anxious expression of the visitor, and what words were constantly being said in his open and closed lips.

Xie Zhao couldn't hear clearly, his eyes went dark, and he fell into darkness.

……

"How is His Highness the Crown Prince today?" Bai Guo sat outside and asked with concern.

Wen Sushu's eyes were slightly blue, and he forced a smile and said: "Your Highness has been busy with some affairs in the court a few days ago. I didn't have a good rest, and I hurt my foundation. I didn't expect the empress to have an accident yesterday. Stimulated those hidden diseases... Imperial Physician Feng came to see me earlier, prescribed a few medicines, and only said to be decocted for three days, and the rest only needs to be recuperated by Your Highness."

Although Xie Zhao is the current prince, he is the weakest among several adult princes. Especially in recent years, the Jin and Yuan emperors have gradually placed the burden of the affairs of the court on him, and his body is depressed due to overwork. He was even more fragile. Last year, he was tormented by only a single wind and cold for half a year. It was not until a few years ago that he managed to recuperate his body. I didn't want to think that another few months passed, and he fell ill again.

Wen Sushu felt a lot of uneasiness in his heart, and wanted to confide in Bai Guo, but in the end he couldn't say it.

The little emperor's grandson was much quieter than usual when he learned that his father was sick and bedridden.He knew that Wen Sushu had to take care of his father, so he no longer clinged to him often, and only went to find things to play by himself.Sometimes when he gets so bored, he sneaks into the main courtyard, peels off the paper on the window, and carefully looks into the house. Every time he does this, he will be discovered by Wen Sushu, and then he will be helpless and pampered by the other party. In his eyes, he was mercilessly sent back to his room.

"When will Daddy wake up?" Little Huangsun blinked and asked the adults around him.

Wen Sushu hugged him and coaxed him softly: "When He'er wakes up from a nap, you can see that he has woken up."

The days in the summer resort seem to be leisurely and beautiful, but beneath them, there are real undercurrents surging.Both the Prince's residence and the Weiyang Palace were suppressed by heavy dark clouds. Seeing that the Prince's health was not good, the Emperor Jin and Yuan dismissed him from the official duties he had been handling earlier. It is difficult to see each other when opening and closing eyes almost every day.

However, in a few days, Prince Xie Zhao's health improved slowly, but the other party refused to return to the Xiaochao meeting, and instead concentrated on recuperating in his small courtyard. Emperor Jin Yuan did not interfere with his choice too much, but often Ask the eunuchs around to take the little grandson to him for questioning.

Weiyang Palace became a forbidden word that no one dared to mention in the summer palace, until more than ten days later, King Yu and Concubine Xu rushed to the palace, and explained the previous case of Jiangzhou magistrate's extermination in front of Emperor Jin and Yuan, and then it happened naturally stayed in the palace.

Concubine Xu has a long-sleeved and good-natured personality. Although the former Concubine Yu spread the shameless things he did to the whole capital before she and Yu Wang separated, causing many gossips from the aristocratic family and the people of the capital, but after a few months passed, he He also went down to Jiangzhou without fear of suffering, and did what a good person did. In this way, no one had the nerve to gossip in front of him.

Ever since Wan Youlan was scratched by a cat, she seldom went out to interact with her. Concubine Bao also felt that Wan Youlan was an unstable character, so the two sides gradually became clear.Concubine Xu has no connections in the palace, and he and King Yu came later, so she has her sights on Wan Youlan, a nobleman who was frequently promoted by Emperor Jin and Yuan.Under Concubine Xu's willingness to move around and give gifts and medicines, in just a few days, the gate of Wan Youlan's courtyard was often opened for Concubine Xu.

"If I say, among the few adult princes, His Royal Highness Prince Yu is the most rare." Wan Youlan wiped the jade muscle ointment given to him by Concubine Xu, and slowly wiped away the dark scars that had scabbed on her face "The former concubine Yu was a bad-hearted person who treated you like this. Concubine Xu has suffered so much, and His Royal Highness Prince Yu has never left her. The two of you should be regarded as a couple of gods."

Concubine Xu took advantage of Wan Youlan's words very much, and she also held her in her arms and said: "You are only here to praise me, but in fact, I see that Concubine Bao is still Concubine Hui, but it's just a momentary glory, this glory is too much Isn’t it just about to usher in a catastrophe? It’s just that the nobleman’s life is good, even if he is unfortunate enough to be in trouble, but it’s also fortunate that His Majesty will take pity on him, and it’s a blessing in disguise.”

Wan Youlan was caught like that by a cat at the beginning, and she really collapsed for several days, but the emperor Jinyuan suddenly issued an imperial decree for her promotion, which really made her affirmed that Emperor Jinyuan really liked her, otherwise Looking at the harem, which disfigured concubine is still treated like this?As for the fact that the royal cat was not punished, although Wan Youlan secretly hated him, there was nothing he could do.

Concubine Xu and her flattered each other for a long time before slowly leaving.

Concubine Rong is the birth mother of King Yu, but she is not as favored by Emperor Jin and Yuan as Wan Youlan, a fresh and tender daughter. The set plate in the harem battle.King Yu wanted to know about Emperor Jin Yuan's side affairs, but it was really difficult to establish a relationship with Concubine Rong, so it became a very tricky thing to find a concubine who was valued by Emperor Jin Yuan but was still easy to win over.

The timing of Wan Youlan's appearance is just right. King Yu only found out that the other party was a commoner woman favored by Emperor Jin Yuan, so he knew that his chance had come.

Perhaps the urgency in his heart was greater than reason, King Yu was not calm in doing things this time, and he didn't notice anything tricky about Wan Youlan's identity.

But speaking of Wan Youlan, apart from her identity, the rest of her appearance is that when Xie Lin sent her to the palace with her memory erased, he used some secret means to slightly adjust the appearance of the other party. In addition, Wan Youlan was scratched by the cat this time, even acquaintances would not recognize her in front of her.

A few days later, the scabs on Wan Youlan's face faded away, and at the strong invitation of Concubine Xu, the two of them left the house and walked around the imperial garden in the palace to admire the flowers.

At that time, Bai Guo received an invitation from Concubine Bao to hold a small banquet in the gazebo near the imperial garden.Before, he wanted to refuse, but he felt bored just staying in a courtyard. After thinking about it again and again, Bai Guo left a post about Concubine Bao, and only changed into a fresh blue dress on the same day to go.

Because it was a small banquet, Concubine Bao didn't invite many people this time, only two or three daughters of the courtiers chatted with Qu Huayan and Qu Jieyu in the gazebo.

Bai Guo had very little impression of Qu Huayan, but at a certain moment, she suddenly remembered that this young Jieyu seemed to have been the handkerchief given by Princess Qin Li Xianer when she was not out of the boudoir.

"Princess Jing?" Qu Huayan was a little nervous when Bai Guo looked at her, and turned her head to look at him suspiciously.

Bai Guo pursed her lips and said with a smile: "I didn't remember before, you and Xian'er are handkerchief friends."

Since Qu Huayan entered the palace, due to lack of favor and embarrassing status, she has never had the chance to meet her friend again. As soon as she said her friend's name from Bai Guo's mouth, her eyes turned slightly red, and she forced a smile and said: " Concubine Qin... is she doing well now?"
