Lu Qingrong stood stunned on the spot, and couldn't help repeating: "Summoned into the palace by the emperor? ”

In front of the small courtyard of the Criminal Department, the familiar little guy nodded again and again: "Exactly!" If Mrs. Shizi had come one step earlier, she would have been able to meet the people in the palace. ”

Lu Qingrong's heart suddenly hanged.

Was it really on the emperor's orders? Has the emperor woken up?

If not......

Lu Qingrong was a little afraid to think about it.

"Who is in the palace, do you recognize?" Lu Qingrong seemed to just ask casually.

The little guy scratched his head and replied, "This little one is not clear...... However, at that time, that person was accompanied by our criminal department squire Lord Lang Di, and the little one heard some people around him talking about it, saying that the father-in-law was on an errand in the Qinzheng Palace, and it seemed that he was not a small person! ”

Hearing him mention the Qinzheng Palace, Lu Qingrong's heart finally eased a little.

Walking out of the criminal department, she was still a little uneasy.

So, when she went back, she didn't directly let the carriage go back to Rongen Street, but made a long detour, wanting to pass by the gate of the palace.

On top of the carriage, Green Bamboo was far more panicked than before.

Luzhu feels that what happened today is one after another, which makes people overwhelmed.

Although she didn't know what happened to Mrs. Shizi in the East Palace, and she didn't hear what Princess Jing and Mrs. Shizi said, but the guards in front of the door in the East Palace, she saw it!

The tense posture at that time, if it weren't for Princess Jing and the Queen Mother arriving in time, I'm afraid they would still be detained in the East Palace at the moment!

And now, the prince was invited into the palace without warning!

Nervous. Lu Zhu grabbed the jade pendant on his chest through his clothes and asked, "Madam." Are you ...... Are you going to use this jade pendant? ”

Lu Qingrong felt her anxiety, and first showed a comforting smile before speaking: "This is just just in case, how can it be used casually!" ”

Lu Zhu's heart was uneasy, and he was about to ask something more, but found that Lu Qingrong had already begun to wander.

I saw Lu Qingrong lift the curtain of the carriage and look out.

Thinking that there is still some distance from the palace gate. Lu Zhu looked at Lu Qingrong's gaze with a little curiosity.

It turned out to be the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies!

Lu Zhu couldn't help but ask: "There are always a lot of people in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies on weekdays, how can it be so deserted today?" And the carriage at the door, why does it look familiar? ”

"Elober." Lu Qingrong put down his curtain. The sense of foreboding in my heart rose again.

Sure enough, as Tang Yue said, the Wu family couldn't hold it anymore, and they couldn't wait to protect the emperor's eldest grandson on the throne!

Lu Qingrong silently turned his head and faced the green bamboo. It seems that you can see the jade pendant through the clothes.

Don't. Is the so-called what if-in-case finally come......

At the same time, the palace was as calm as ever.

If there is a slight difference, it is the palace of diligence.

At dusk, when the sun was about to set, the emperor, who had been in a coma before, woke up for a while.

After the emperor woke up. Ignoring the cadres who were waiting to be seen, the first thing he did was to summon a few people into the palace by name.

One of them. It is Jiang Xuan, the son of the Marquis of Jingyuan, who is still locked up in the Criminal Department.

Father-in-law Chang didn't dare to delay, and immediately sent someone to summon him.

At the same time, he did not ignore that the emperor's spirit was unusually good......

"Your Majesty, do you want Doctor Xu to come over first to ask for a pulse?" Father-in-law Chang concealed his apprehension very well.

Seeing that the emperor didn't seem to hear it, Father-in-law Chang hurriedly said: "It will take a while for several adults to arrive, and Doctor Xu has been guarding the side hall, and calling him in at this moment will definitely not delay the emperor and the adults to talk about business." ”

The emperor nodded reluctantly.

Gong Chang immediately summoned Doctor Xu into the hall.

On the side of the dragon collapse, Doctor Xu was kneeling there for two pillars of incense, cutting a full set of the doctor's eyes and questions.

The more Xu Yizheng grinded, the more uneasy Chang Gonggong's heart became.

When Xu Yizheng found that the emperor was obviously a little impatient, he knelt down and took two steps back.

Seeing this, Father-in-law Chang was about to step forward to ask, but the moment he saw Xu Yizheng's face, his heart chuckled.

I saw that Doctor Xu was sweating profusely, his face was pale, and the hand that had just diagnosed the pulse seemed to be still trembling, and he was pressing hard with his other hand at this time, but the effect was very small, and he was still being seen.

Chang Gonggong's heart sank more and more, and he wanted to ask several times, but he couldn't open his mouth.

For a moment, there was a strange silence in the Qinzheng Palace.

Doctor Xu and Father-in-law Chang looked at each other, as if they both wanted each other to say something first.

In the end, the emperor couldn't help it.

I saw that the emperor wanted to get up with his hands, and finally he was supported by Chang Gonggong, but he barely changed his reclining posture.

"My body, I know it in my own heart. But it doesn't hurt for you to say it! ”

"Yes." Doctor Xu was the first to make a promise, and then he was thinking about the words in his heart.

He looked left and right helplessly, and saw that there was really no one in the hall to relieve the siege, and finally turned his heart sideways, intending to tell the truth.

Just when the words such as "powerless to return to the sky" had not yet been spoken, the palace remembered a report in time.

The Queen Mother and the Queen Mother are here.

The emperor's attention immediately shifted, and he no longer continued to ask, but sent to Xu Yizheng: "You go, keep them out!" Just say that I need to recuperate, and if you say anything else, I will forgive you for your innocence! ”

Xu Yizheng didn't dare to disobey, and immediately took the order.

The emperor thought for a while, and then instructed Father-in-law Chang: "You also go over, in case he doesn't use it, just say that this is my will, please ask the queen mother and them to go back to the palace first." ”

In front of the Qinzheng Palace, Empress Dowager Wu really turned a blind eye to Imperial Doctor Xu who was blocking in front, and finally Chang Gonggong came out to stop her.

Empress Dowager Wu glanced at the queen who was following her, and thought that she couldn't get rid of her just now, and suddenly felt that it was good that she couldn't get in.

It's just that Empress Dowager Wu did not return to Fengning Palace, but went to the side hall of Qinzheng Hall to sit.

"If there is any situation on the emperor's side, report it at any time!" Empress Dowager Wu left such a sentence before turning around.

Chang Gonggong respectfully responded, but his heart was extremely uncomfortable.

It is self-evident what the "situation" in the mouth of the Queen Mother refers to......

In the side hall, the queen also came in with her.

Empress Dowager Wu snorted coldly in her heart, remembered the news she had heard before, and asked: "I heard that the queen issued an order today to let Concubine Lu of the East Palace serve the crown princess who is under house arrest, and the responsibility of taking care of the emperor's eldest grandson will be replaced by Concubine Xu?" ”

The queen's attitude was neither humble nor arrogant: "Exactly." ”

Without much explanation.

Xu Ying, the side concubine of the East Palace, her mother's mother is from the Anlebo Mansion, and she can be regarded as a person from the Wu family. Although Empress Dowager Wu has no objection to this, the horizontal and vertical Lu Manyu has no use value, and it doesn't matter if she changes it or not.

It's just that she was a little dissatisfied with the queen's attitude, so she asked, "Why is this?" ”

The queen replied indifferently: "The two side concubines in the East Palace are already of equal status, and they are equal in status. Since Concubine Lu has been tired for so long, I thought that it was time to change people. ”

Looking at Empress Dowager Wu's suspicious look, the queen added: "There is no special reason!" ”

Make it clear that you love to believe it or not.

Empress Dowager Wu was angry in her heart, thinking that this was a critical moment, so she didn't bother with her because of a small loss.

At this time, the people summoned by the emperor had already arrived.

Jiang Xuan was the last to enter the Qinzheng Palace.

As soon as I came in, I saw the emperor leaning on the couch, next to him, in addition to Chang Gonggong, there were also Lord Ji and Lord Yu standing with their heads down, and Yan Guogong, who had not appeared for many years in the old Longzhong.

I saw that the two adults were both frowning and their faces were solemn.

And the emperor's bloodless face, coupled with the appearance of Imperial Physician Xu outside the palace sweating profusely but trembling, seemed to indicate that something big was about to happen.

Suddenly, the emperor said slowly: "I called you here just to be a witness. ”

At this moment, several people held their breath, and the hall was so quiet that they could hear a pin dropping.

The emperor also instructed Chang Gonggong: "Go and get the pen and ink, I will write the edict of succession at this moment." ”

The tone is extremely flat, talking about the most important decision in the world.

No one made a sound, just quietly waited for Chang Gonggong to go out and come back, set up a small table of golden silk nanmu on the couch, and put pen and ink and edict on it.

The emperor barely moved, only sat up slightly straighter, lifted the pen, and did it in one go.
