Chapter 55: A Deliberate Counterattack (4)

The Immortal Tree is a royal event, and each royal heir will set up an immortal tree at the full moon, which means physical well-being and calmness.

If there is an accident with the immortal tree at this juncture, then she will be in big trouble.

"What's wrong with the Immortal Tree?!" Mo Ran got up from the bed with a bone.

"Niangniang, the prince's immortal tree, broken." The last two words hit Mo Ran's heart heavily.

If there are other problems, she can solve them, but this broken paulownia tree, she has the ability to reach the sky, and she is helpless.

"Who broke it?!" At this time, if she can find that person, she still has a chance to clear her suspicions.

"Mother, no one touched it, the tree was broken by itself......"

"What did you see with your own eyes?"

"The slave has been watching them, and has seen them with their own eyes."

Cen Er actually didn't believe it herself, but this is what she saw with her own eyes, and the tree was surrounded within ten meters of the completion of the casting.

"Don't worry, don't worry, you let me think about it, think about it......" Mo Ran was also panicked in her heart, she was in charge of this full moon ceremony in the eyes of the court, and those people were waiting for her to make a mistake.

She has been doing everything herself in the past few days, but she was afraid that some people would take the opportunity to stumble on her, but she didn't expect that she would let them succeed with a hundred secrets.

"Niangniang, don't worry, it's really not good, if it doesn't work, it will be said that it is a slave, and the slave is jealous of the court concubine, so I don't want the prince to live a long life, so I cut down the immortal tree."

Cen Er's voice trembled a little, but what she said was really sincere.

"No!" Mo Ran grabbed Cen Er's hand, "No, I won't do that to you!" There will be a way, there will be a way! ”

She is just talking, her mind is blank now, she can't think of any way, she just stabilizes Cen Er.

"How many people know about this?"

"At present, there are only slaves and maids, and they are all preparing in front of the temple, and when the slaves and maids find out, they cover the tree."

Luckily, no one knew, or else they wouldn't know how to gag them.

Mo Ran secretly regretted why he didn't follow his brother to practice spells in the first place.

That's right, brother!

"Cen Er, hurry! Go to the General's Mansion and invite my brother here, quick! She said urgently, and Cen Er didn't have time to ask the reason, so she turned around and ran away.

She didn't care about resting, so she put on her dress and walked towards the ceremony.

Her footsteps on the road were fast, and when she took it away, her hair was a little scattered, and there was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead.

"Participate in the mother."

"Participate in the mother."

The passing minions saluted her, and she would answer them one by one if she had placed them in normal times, and she couldn't care about it too much.

"Has anyone been to the back?" After Mo Ran arrived, he grabbed a palace maid who was setting up a case and asked.

"Back to Niangniang, the slaves and maids have been working in the front hall, and no one has gone to the back."

That's good, that is, no one has noticed that the tree is broken, and she still has a chance to make amends.

Mo Ran didn't dare to leave, so he stood in front of the tree and waited for Mo Nan to come over.

Monan came quickly, and he did not enter through the main entrance, but through the back of the palace.

He saw that Cen Er was so anxious, and he knew that something was wrong, so he didn't dare to delay for a moment, put down his words and entered the palace.

After Cen Er brought Mo Nan, she waited at the door with her eyes.

"Brother, is there a way for you to connect this copper tree?"

"I'll take a look first."

It turned out that the immortal tree was broken, no wonder Mo Ran was in such a hurry.

But this is a tree that has been completely broken, and even he can't fully recover it.

"I can get him to connect first, but I don't think it will last long, three to five days at most, and you'll have to recast one before then."

Three or five days? This tree has been cast since Qi'er was born, and because the full moon ceremony was postponed, the casting is extraordinarily fine.

"Okay! Now I can go to the top first, and then I'm figuring it out! But she can't control it so much, now it's a big deal, and she will talk to Miyazawa Kun after the ceremony.

Together with Mo Ran, he put the upper half of the broken tree on it, and then took out a piece of white cloth and wrapped it around the broken joint, wrapping it tightly.

Tie the dead knot, Mo Nan moved to the palm of his hand, pressed his hands on the white cloth, and suddenly bursts of white smoke floated, and he continued to rub up and down.

I saw that the white cloth gradually turned yellow, brown, and brown, and became hard, and finally adhered evenly near the fracture, and it looked no different from the surrounding copper.

"Is that okay?" Mo Ran looked at it, but the white cloth fixed it.

"I have solidified some of my qi in it, and it can at least keep this tree from falling for three days, and after three days, it will be resigned to fate." There was no other way for Monan.

"Yihuan, even if you tell the emperor, he won't punish you, why are you so flustered?"

"I'm not afraid of him, but there are too many women in this harem, and none of them are fuel-efficient lamps, and I have to be known at this time, I'm afraid my life in the palace won't be easy."

This remark was made by her sincerity and feelings, but she had other reasons besides this.

After all, this month's painstaking operation can't be wasted because of this one thing.

"It's good if you have a number, as a foreign minister, it's inconvenient for me to appear here, my brother went out first, you take care of it here, don't let others touch this tree."

As he spoke, he handed her the token of the General's Mansion again.

"Brother, don't worry, in the palace, he will protect me." This is a sincere dependence.

Before leaving, he left another sentence.

"Everything has me, Yihuan, send someone to inform me if something happens, and my brother will keep you safe."

There is no flowery rhetoric in his words, but they are heartwarming.

"Got it, brother."

He reached out to touch Mo Ran's hair, and when he saw the jewel on it, he put down his hand in disdain.

He turned around and went back the way he came.

"! Empress! ”

Cen Er was banging on the door, her tone a little anxious.

Mo Ran withdrew his gaze from his brother and opened the door.

"Cen Er, what's wrong?"

"Niangniang, the ceremony has begun, the court concubine Niangniang and the little prince are about to come to the apse!"

As soon as the words fell, I heard the voice of the announcement.

"The court concubine has arrived."

Mo Ran covered the copper tree again in a panic, tidied up his appearance, and waited for the court concubine to come in.

"My sister came so early, and this palace is uneasy." Because today is a big day for Qi'er, the court concubine is dressed up even more fancy, which is very amazing.

"I've left this matter to me, it's my duty, and that's what my sister said."

"Speaking of which, I really want to thank my sister, who is in charge of the full moon ceremony of Qi'er, but it took a lot of effort." She pretended to be affectionate and took Mo Ran's hand.

"It should."

She didn't want to be polite to Concubine Ting, so she gave Cen Er a look, and Cen Er was also on the road, and walked over in a few steps.

"Niangniang, according to the ceremony, Niangniang can't wait for the banquet here, let's move to the back hall."

It stands to reason that today, the entire palace is at the disposal of the prince, but the prince is young, and it is not the power of the mother.

"Sister, then I'll go first, the banquet will start in a while, and I'll go over to say hello to Qi'er."

After saluting each other, Mo Ran left here.

Seeing that she was normal, Concubine Ting couldn't see a trace of panic.

She brushed her hand on the copper tree, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

The ceremony went smoothly, except for the stiffness of the court concubine's smile when she saw the copper tree.

At the banquet, Mo Ran sat on the high position next to Gong Zekun according to the rank, and the court concubine was only half a step shorter than her, and she also sat on the high position.

"Today is a good day for your mother and son, I will toast you first and promise you a reward!" Miyazawa-kun opened his mouth, and this seat was opened.

"The concubines don't dare, thank you for the emperor's grace." Not long after Concubine Ting gave birth, her figure was still really good, although her waist was not so slender, but fortunately, it was symmetrical and natural, and it was even more twists and turns from the side.

In contrast, although Mo Ran is beautiful in color, he is too thin, but it looks dull and bright.

But this is just right, she doesn't want to be in the limelight today, and she has always adhered to it to protect herself and live safely. But if anyone sins against me.

Mo Ran clutched the glass of wine tightly in his hand, took a few deep breaths, and finally raised his head and drank it all.

"Ran'er, drink less, beware of getting drunk and having a headache." Miyazawa-kun sideways saw her head up drinking, and turned to remind her.

"It's okay." Still, she put down her glass and picked up a piece of pastry.

In the blink of an eye, there were a few more songs and dances, the colors of red, red, green and green, and the unrestrained movements, which made people dizzy to watch.

Without jumping a few times, Miyazawa Kun waved his hand and let people go down.

"I'm dizzy, Miyazawa-kun, I'll go and rest for a while." Mo Ran said softly to him, it was time for her to go down.

"Don't let you drink too much and don't listen, go, it's over in a while, I'll call someone to pick you up." Fortunately, Miyazawa didn't notice anything unusual.

After returning to the back hall, Mo Ran asked Cen Er to pour her a glass of water, but who knew that she only drank a sip and the person fell to the ground.

In just a few seconds, there was a violent cough and convulsions, blood coming out of the corners of his mouth.

Cen Er behind him saw this scene and was immediately frightened.

"Doctor, come on! Doctor! Mother, mother, what's wrong with you, mother! ”

"Imperial Doctor, hurry up and call Imperial Doctor!"

"Ahh Mother, mother, mother vomited blood! ”

"Quick! Just go! ”

The originally quiet back hall is now in chaos, and everyone's hearts are pulling at their throats.

Concubine Li is the favorite in the palace now, if something happens to the mother in front of them, the emperor will not want their heads!

"Quick! Go and tell the emperor! ”

"Let's call the Imperial Doctor first!"

……

There was another chaotic commotion.

"Your Majesty, Niangniang is really caused by poisoning, her lips are gray, her eyes and nose are red, and her silver needles are sour and blue, Niangniang? It is a kind of snake venom in Lingnan called Nanqi. ”

The most terrifying thing about this poison is not that its toxicity is strong, but that its poisonous way is never exposed, it starts from the inside, and gradually corrodes the internal organs.

What's even more peculiar is that the depth of reaction of Nan Qi in everyone's body is different, some people are hit by it, that is, it is highly poisonous, there is no cure, and some people are hit by it

The pain in scratching the heart and lungs, and the bursts of convulsions and spasms are all precursors that the poison is seeping into the bones.

"Is there an antidote?"

"The minister should do his best to heal his mother." Although Imperial Doctor Xu is a medical saint from the rivers and lakes, he is not completely sure that he can cure this poison.

If you are alone in the palace, how can you be the snake venom of Lingnan? This must not be an accident, it must be man-made.

"Check! Check it out to me! How did these pickled dirty things come across Concubine Li! Miyazawa Kun was furious and slapped the table and roared.

Li Dequan was the first to react and said, "The slave is going!" The emperor was angry, and the servants immediately sent someone to investigate! ”

After a long time, Imperial Physician Xu walked out of it, his steps were a little vague, and his hands were a little trembling.

"Back to the emperor, Niangniang has been detoxified, it's hard to say when she will wake up next, but it won't take two days at most."

In addition to this news that made his heart back in his stomach, another news brought by Li Dequan made him lift his heart again.
