Chapter Seventy-Six: Killing the Lord and Seizing the Throne
"The people who stayed with her when the fire was on fire were all awake, why hasn't she woken up yet?"
Yuan Xin clenched his fists fiercely, although he had tried his best to lower his voice, but only the low tone and the blue tendons that burst into the corners of his forehead were enough to show that Long Xin was very unhappy at this moment!
"This ......" Ye Qing's eyes turned in a circle, and his mind quickly thought about how to answer, such a question that even the imperial doctor couldn't say if he wanted to break his head! Back to the emperor, maybe Concubine Jin Niangniang inhaled too much smoke, orβ" As he spoke, his voice became smaller and quieter, and in the end, he couldn't make it up directly.
Yuan Xin's afterglow coldly caught a glimpse of his monkey scratching his head, his dark eyes became deeper and deeper, and he waved his big hand, "All down!" No one is allowed to come in without my orders! β
Hearing this, the big stone that pressed on Ye Qing's heart immediately fell in response, and he bowed down and retreated after secretly relieving and saluting.
Not long after he left, Yuan Xin's eyes fell on Helian Xinya's face again, and suddenly, a crystal tear slowly overflowed from the corner of her eye, sliding down her cheek. Yuan Xin's pupils shrank suddenly, frowned slightly, stretched out her index finger, and gently wiped away the tears on her face.
Well, why do you cry?
Ye Qing had just stepped out of the Heart Nourishing Hall with his front foot, and his shoulders tightened before his back foot fell, and the whole person was suddenly pulled aside, that familiar breath was that he didn't need to ask, he also knew who it was!
"Situ Chenfeng, what do you want to do? This is the temple of nourishing the heart! β
Ye Qing pursed his lips, twisted his shoulders from side to side, and as soon as he broke free of his big hand, he raised his head and hit a pair of scarlet eyes with one eye, "Wow, what's wrong with your eyes?" Do you have pink eye? Hurry up, there are a lot of imperial doctors over there, I'll go and pull one over to help you treat your eyes! β
After he finished speaking, he was about to leave, but the person in front of him was so angry that he couldn't walk after walking a few steps, so he had to turn around again in a muffled voice. After looking at Situ Chenfeng for a while, he sighed helplessly.
"Tell me, what are you doing here?"
"You know what I want to do." Situ Chenfeng said coldly, his voice was dry and hoarse, the deep furrow between his eyebrows seemed to be dyed with wind and frost, and he raised his eyes and looked deeply at the Heart Cultivation Palace, "How is she now?" β
And so it was.
Ye Qing rolled his eyes, and Hang Erlang hugged his arms locally, at this time, he and Situ Chenfeng were both dressed in black, and they still looked quite handsome in this dark night, a bit of the demeanor of a chivalrous man in the rivers and lakes.
"She has been unconscious since I took her out, and the imperial doctors are helpless-" Before he finished speaking, Situ Chenfeng's thin lips were tightly pursed, and he was about to take a step, Ye Qing naturally knew where he was going, and stretched out his arm to block his way.
"Get out of the way!" Situ Chenfeng narrowed his eyes dangerously, and the warning meaning expressed by the cold light in them could not be more obvious.
Hey, really speaking, he Ye Qing is also a life-saving benefactor who saved Mu Xinya twice, okay, do you have to suffer this kind of treatment?
Ye Qing's arm still didn't let go, and when he stepped forward, he blocked him more tightly, although his expression was not serious, his words were very firm, "Situ Chenfeng, are you crazy?" What do you want to do, go to the Heart Cultivation Palace without being summoned by the emperor? You think you're tired of living for a long time, aren't you? β
"You don't have to worry about this, and-" Situ Chenfeng's eyes moved slightly, and the cold glint in his eyes gradually faded, "I won't trespass, I can take a look at her in the name of reporting something." β
Ye Qing sneered, hooked his lips and glanced at him mockingly, "Do you really think that you have the ability to hide your own love now?" Look at what you think on your face, the emperor saw it, do you think he won't suspect you, and think that you have anything wrong with Concubine Jin? At that time, even the Da Luo Immortal will not be able to protect you! β
Looking at a trace of grief and heaviness flashing in Situ Chen's eyes, Ye Qing couldn't help but feel that his words were a little too much, the cynicism in his eyes was a little less, and he lowered his voice and comforted: "Forget it, tell you the truth, so many imperial doctors are helpless, you have another ghost to use now!" Moreover, isn't there still the emperor who has always been by her side? β
Situ Chenfeng's big hand hidden under his sleeve robe clenched fiercely.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦ Divider........................
Inside the palace, in one room.
Le Ling stumbled all the way to the door in the night, stretched out his hand to push the door open, and ran in quickly, his panting forehead was covered with sweat.
Seeing the person lying on the bed from a distance, Le Ling's stopped tears almost fell again, and he threw himself to the side of the bed without stopping.
"Aunt Mo Lan!"
It turned out that the person on the bed was none other than Mo Lan, who was rescued by Ye Qing with Helian Xinya. Mo Lan's face was very ugly, her hair that had been neatly combed in the past was a mess at the moment, her eyes had been crying because of the smoke, and her throat was dry and astringent, and she was in pain.
"Leling......" Mo Lan shouted her name from her throat with difficulty, seeing her eyes red and mouth deflated, she hurriedly wanted to get up straight from the bed, Leling saw this and quickly helped her to help her lean against the bed rail.
"Aunt Mo Lan, how are you? Are there any good points? Le Ling asked with a blank eye, and the words she said were full of tears.
Mo Lan shook her head and held her little hand, "I'm fine, but my head is still a little dizzy, what about Niangniang?" How is she? At this point, there was a deep worry in her brows, obviously more than she cared about herself.
Hearing her ask, Le Lingqiang held back her tears and cried out with a "wow", sobbing horizontally, looking so good, Mo Lan couldn't help but panic, grabbed her hand harder, and asked urgently regardless of the pain in her throat: "What's going on?" Leling, hurry up, you make me worry like this. β
Le Ling knew that she was indeed very bad and disgusting, and it would only hurt people to worry in vain, so she suppressed her sobbing, reached out to wipe the tears on her face, and sobbed: "I don't know the specific Ling'er, Ling'er just found out from an old imperial doctor, Niangniang has been unconscious now, and none of them can do anything...... Woo, auntie, what should we do now? β
"What?" Mo Lan's face changed suddenly, anxious and panicked, "unconscious? How can you be unconscious? I haven't woken up, why is my mother in a coma all the time? β
She frowned anxiously, and her feelings suddenly became excited, and she began to cough, even though Leling had been helping her pat her back, she still coughed with tears.
"I don't know, now that the emperor is staying in the Heart Raising Palace with his mother, I can't go in and take a look. Auntie, what the hell are we going to do? Is it that the imperial doctors in the palace are too bad for them to cure Niangniang? β
Mo Lan stared at her eyes and nodded, "Yes, what you said makes sense, Niang Niang said a long time ago that all the doctors in the Daimyo Palace are quacks, so she never goes to them for treatment, and the last poisoning is all due to-" As she spoke, the name on her lips was swallowed by her again, and Mo Lan's eyes were soaked with heavy sadness and sadness.
"...... poisoned last time" Le Ling didn't notice her abnormality, and then her words continued while recalling, "That's right, Niangniang refused to declare the imperial doctor, and the poison on our body was cured by Sister Qingluan." Aunt Mo Lan, you said that it would be great if Sister Qingluan was here now, she is so smart and powerful, she will definitely help Niang Niang tide over the difficulties! β
Hearing this, seeing the glint of hope in Le Ling's eyes, the sadness on Mo Lan's face became even stronger, and she let out a long sigh, "Le Ling, don't mention Qingluan in the future, and don't call her sister again, she is not your sister, remember Le Ling?" β
Le Ling was stunned, and raised her face in confusion, why would Aunt Mo Lan say the same thing as Gu Qingluan now? She had told her not to call her sister again, although she had never been able to change her words.
"But why?"
"There is no why!" Mo Lan accentuated her tone, but after seeing Le Ling's innocent and shocked big eyes, her voice softened again, "Alas, Le Ling, do you really think that this fire was just an accident?" Not at all. Did someone knock me and my mother unconscious, and then set us on fire, trying to burn us alive? The human heart in this world is always the most unpredictable. β
Gu Qingluan is the person sent by Helian Changfeng to Niangniang's side to protect her, with her understanding of Helian Changfeng for many years, with his thoughtful Cheng DΓΉ and his strategic means, he will definitely not travel on a business trip in the matter of picking people. Now, Gu Qingluan first disappeared for no reason, and then secretly sneaked into the palace in a vain attempt to kill the lord and seize the throne!
It's terrible, how could Qingluan become like this? Just because she is also the same as Niangniang, she is also a descendant of the Helian clan, but the difference between them is vastly different, so now she is finally unwilling? Also, I really didn't expect that the abandoned girl who was disfigured after being born by Helian Changfeng more than ten years ago was actually Gu Qingluan! And she should have stayed in the Valley of Despair for so many years, receiving all kinds of training, but she could still do it without knowing it.
What does Helian Changfeng mean? Does he want to support Niangniang or use Niangniang to secretly help his own daughter seize the throne?
It's a pity that Mo Lan is not in the Valley of Despair now, and she can't go back in a short time, otherwise she will definitely question him face to face. With her position in the Helian clan for decades, he wouldn't fail to take her seriously.
"Someone set fire?"
Over there, Mo Lan was frowning and thinking hard, and here Le Ling grew her mouth in shock, "Aunt Mo Lan, do you mean that someone deliberately wants to harm Niangniang?" Who is it? Which one is bold? Why do it over and over again! Her brain has always been half a beat slower than others, so when she heard this, she directly skipped the previous incident and associated this incident with the poisoning incident, thinking that it was all done by one person.
Mo Lan sighed helplessly, even if she knew that she was simple and ignorant, she still had to tell her the truth of the matter, so that she could learn to distinguish between right and wrong, "Wrong Leling, this time it's not that person, but Qingluan, the fire in Huaqing Palace, and Niangniang's coma, all caused by her!" β
