The one who came to report was an attendant specially arranged by Liu Qingyan, who was responsible for reporting on the big things that happened in the palace. Because after suffering several losses, Liu Qingyan also thought that in the end, there was some distance between the Qi Palace's Mansion and the palace, and some major events in the palace would have to take a long time before they could reach her ears.

If so, it would delay her time to know the latest things. Therefore, she specially arranged this attendant.

What he never expected was that this was only the first time that this attendant was arranged, and the first news he sent back was a big event that could cause a sensation in the whole world - the emperor died!

The emperor's death is not trivial, not only about the palace, but also about the Qi Palace. There are too many things involved, and the involvement is too wide and too wide, if the news spreads, the whole world will be boiling over it.

Liu Qingyan couldn't believe it for a while, so she just chased after him and asked, "Are you...... What did you just say? What happened to the emperor? ”

"Back to the princess," the attendant knelt on the ground and repeated it honestly and carefully, "it is the emperor, the emperor and he...... Crashed. ”

Liu Qingyan took a deep breath and looked at Lu Siguan beside her.

But after all, it was the King of Qi, and there were really more things encountered, so Lu Siguan's reaction was not as exaggerated as hers, but he just clenched her hand and said to the attendant: "Don't publicize this matter." ”

"Yes." The attendant is also a person with strict training, even if Lu Siguan does not remind him, he will not tell him about it.

"Stand down." Lu Siguan waved his hand and sighed. The emperor died, and there were more things in the future, and they were even more annoying. He originally wanted to live a good life with Liu Qingyan for a while.

If it is said that the emperor has died, I am afraid that he and Liu Qingyan will have to encounter some different big and small troubles.

When the attendant went down, Lu Siguan led Liu Qingyan into the room, and the big and small pairs waited outside the door, but did not follow in.

These two maids are smart, and they know that if Lu Siguan leads Liu Qingyan back to the room, and it is a reunion after a long absence, then they will definitely have to do something private...... And those things, of course, will not and should not be seen by maids like the two of them.

Liu Qingyan followed Lu Siguan into the room and sat down at the table. The room was quiet, just the two of them, and a little golden daylight leaked in through the window, shining on the ground, casting a dappled shadow.

"Lu Siguan ......," Liu Qingyan called out to him.

"It doesn't matter," Lu Siguan reached out and rubbed her head, "The emperor's death was already expected by me." ”

Liu Qingyan was slightly stunned, and Lu Siguan nodded: "Have you forgotten?" In the last period of the emperor's life, who was he always with, and what did he take? ”

Finally, Liu Qingyan suddenly realized: "It's because of the drug!" ”

The drug that Du Guifei gave to the emperor was provided to her by Song Jingchen, which must not be a good thing, there must be many bad drawbacks. It seems that Song Jingchen also said that those are hallucinogenic drugs and deadly poisons.

In this way, the emperor's death was indeed expected.

It seems that Song Jingchen is Song Jingchen in the end, and even the imperial doctor has no way to solve the poison.

But thinking about it like this, Liu Qingyan thought of an extremely terrifying possibility, and when she thought of that, Liu Qingyan herself was stunned for a moment, revealing a look of some fear. If that's really the case, it would be terrible......

Lu Siguan noticed her face and asked out loud, "What's wrong?" Is there something uncomfortable about it? Is it a child? ”

"No," Liu Qingyan shook her head and looked at Lu Siguan in front of her, "I just remembered one thing......

"You say, what's the matter?" Lu Siguan looked at her patiently.

Liu Qingyan frowned tightly and looked at him very nervously: "The imperial doctors in the palace are the most skilled doctors in the world, if they are poisoned, they will not die within three days." Lu Siguan, have you ever seen such a powerful poison, such a useless imperial doctor? "Anyway, she didn't believe it.

Lu Siguan was stunned: "So, Huaixiang, what do you mean?" ”

Liu Qingyan looked at him and said, "Could it be that someone is secretly designing, deliberately telling those imperial doctors not to diagnose the emperor's illness and not to cure the emperor?" And the person who would do this, Liu Qingyan already had a conjecture in her heart.

"Who do you think it will be?" Lu Siguan lowered his voice and asked her.

"Once upon a time, when you weren't there," Liu Qingyan didn't rush to answer, but began to talk about other things, "The emperor has alienated the queen mother because of Du Guifei's arrangement and design. The queen mother specially came to me for this reason, met me, and had a good talk with me. ”

Lu Siguan frowned: "I don't know about this matter...... What did she say to you? ”

Liu Qingyan looked at him and said: "She said it is high-sounding, saying that it is for the sake of the country, and why the current emperor is so obsessed with beauty and ignoring the government and politics, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction among the people in the future." Therefore, she asked me to help her do things together, to open up a good road for the prince. ”

Lu Siguan touched his chin: "If you want to find a helper, you are indeed the best candidate in the entire capital." ”

First, Liu Qingyan's husband, that is, Lu Siguan, died at the hands of the emperor. She has hatred for the emperor, and for the sake of hatred, maybe she really did such a thing, and she did it very well.

On the other hand, and the most important point, Liu Qingyan was canonized by the emperor himself.

When Liu Qingyan was canonized, the emperor was still a Ming monarch, and he knew what kind of people could be reused and what could not. The emperor thought that Liu Qingyan could take on such an important task as Jingfu Yin, so he canonized Liu Qingyan. This also shows that Liu Qingyan is indeed capable, not relying on her husband.

Later, what Liu Qingyan did did prove that the choice made by the queen was not wrong, but before the queen completely pushed her beloved crown prince to the throne, such a thing happened, that is, Song Jingchen forced the palace.

Liu Qingyan looked at Lu Siguan and said, "I suspect now that the emperor's death is not a simple matter, but related to ...... What is the connection between the queen mother. ”

According to Liu Qingyan's conjecture, the queen must have learned from some different source that the emperor had been infected with an extremely terrible poison and needed a lot of treatment to recover, otherwise he would only die.

So, the queen thought about it, and didn't know if she had finally decided it by herself, or if she had discussed it with the prince. Anyway, in the end, she came to the conclusion that she should stop caring about the emperor and let the emperor die.

What is the status of the queen? Even if he was excluded by Du Guifei at the beginning, he is a person with a foundation and an identity. Once Du Guifei falls, all the resources that were originally robbed by Du Guifei will be returned to her hands and controlled by her.

In this way, it is also possible for the empress to manipulate those imperial doctors not to cure the emperor.

Lu Siguan was slightly stunned, but he did not deny Liu Qingyan's conjecture.

After being silent for a moment, Lu Siguan sighed, opened his arms, and hugged Liu Qingyan into his arms: "It's okay. Even so, the throne was inherited by the crown prince, and the crown prince was originally going to inherit it. ”

"I'm just worried that the queen will come to me." Liu Qingyan said in a muffled voice in his arms.

"Looking for you?" Lu Siguan stroked her back, and his voice was very soft.

Liu Qingyan said "um" and said: "Because the queen was also in the same boat as me, if she really won the throne for the crown prince, and I promised her to do things for her, there are some things that she doesn't want me to pass on." ”

"Then do you think that your husband is completely useless?" Lu Siguan said with a smile.

"What?" Liu Qingyan was slightly stunned, and she didn't react for a while, and she didn't know what Lu Siguan meant.

"If you were threatened by the Queen, would I not be on your side?" Lu Siguan sighed and said patiently, "And think about it, who am I." Could it be that His Royal Highness the dignified King Qi can't even keep his beloved concubine? If that's the case, what's the use of me? ”

Liu Qingyan finally understood what he meant, and couldn't help but smile: "I didn't mean that either." I'm just worried. ”

After a slight pause, she said firmly: "I know, if anything happens to me, you will definitely appear by my side to help me, and you will definitely not watch me have an accident." ”

Lu Siguan lifted her out of his arms some distance, lowered his eyes, and looked at her with a smile: "I have learned wisely, and my speech is also very sweet." What, you didn't eat candy this morning, did you? ”

"If you don't like to hear it, I'll stop talking about it in the future." Liu Qingyan snorted.

"No, no, I'd love to hear you, I love to hear you say things like that." Lu Siguan hurriedly said.

After speaking, his eyes fell on Liu Qingyan's lower abdomen, his eyes were delicate and gentle, he stretched out his hand and stroked her belly: "There is not much time left, and our child will be born." ”

Liu Qingyan also bent her eyes and laughed: "Yes, I'm about to be born." I've been dreaming about him lately, and I've dreamed that he calls me my mother, and his voice is soft. ”

"Master! Sister! Lu Yujian's anxious voice interrupted the lingering of the two people, only to see him come in from outside the house in a panic, and said, "Do you two know that something big has happened......

"The emperor died?" Liu Qingyan raised her eyebrows.

Lu Yujian was stunned: "Huh? What the? The emperor died? ”
