Chapter Eighty-Five: Defeat

Nangong Shuang asked again, pulling Zhao Ye's thoughts back, and he replied lightly: "Now that the Shuang Mansion is completely defeated, most of the concubines in the mansion have fled with money, for fear of being implicated, and now that Yun'er is in the mansion, it is not good for your subordinates who are not in the mansion to lose their backbone." ”

Zhao Ye's tone was a little cold, Nangong Shuang listened quietly without saying a word, Zhao Ye saw him turn around like this and was about to leave, and when he was about to reach the prison door, he heard a man's sad voice from inside.

"Hahahaha."

"Haha."

There was a sad voice in the empty prison, a bit of self-deprecation. Zhao Ye was stunned and then turned around and left as usual.

Recently, the emperor's health has improved a lot, as always, sitting in the imperial study to review the folds, Chen Gonggong came in from outside with the ginseng soup, and saw the emperor who was still reading at the desk and said: "Your Majesty, this is the ginseng soup specially made for you by the queen's mother, Your Majesty eat it while it's hot." ”

"Hmm."

The emperor put down the pen in his hand and picked up the soup bowl and ate it, and soon it was already at the bottom, and Gonggong Chen stepped forward to take the soup bowl down.

Chen Gonggong walked to the general and heard the sound behind him, and looked back at the emperor in his heart, only to see the emperor spitting blood from his mouth and looking at himself, his eyes were wide open, Chen Gonggong was startled, his hand shook, and there was a crisp sound of "bang", and the soup bowl in his hand smashed to the ground.

"Your Majesty! Call the Imperial Doctor. ”

The movement in the hall was loud and loud, and the guards outside the door were startled when they entered, and hurriedly ran to ask for a doctor. One person is responsible for calling other princes, such as the crown prince and the empress, to come over.

The imperial doctor took the emperor's pulse, his breath was weak, and his face suddenly turned pale, and he knelt down tremblingly and said to the prince and others: "The emperor's time is running out. ”

"How can this be, hasn't my father been very healthy in the last few days? Could it be that you have made a mistake? ”

The imperial doctor looked up at the prince and said, "The old slave has been diagnosed a lot, indeed,"

"How can a person suddenly become bad, is there something wrong? The doctor knows why. Nangong Lichuan asked appropriately.

"yes, what's the reason?" The fourth prince spoke.

"The old slave wants to see the emperor's recent diet." The Imperial Physician said seriously.

At this time, everyone suddenly noticed the soup bowl that fell to the ground, and Nangong Lichuan suddenly asked, "Gonggong Chen, what is this?" ”

"Back to the prince, this is the ginseng soup that the queen mother gave to your majesty to replenish her body." Gonggong Chen hurriedly replied, a look of uneasiness suddenly appeared on his face, the emperor drank this soup just now.

"Check it out." Nangong Lichuan ordered the Imperial Doctor. The Imperial Doctor ordered him to quickly walk to the soup bowl, squat down, reach out and order some leftover soup from the broken bowl, put it in his mouth and tasted it.

Everyone held their breath and looked at the imperial doctor, and after a while, the imperial doctor got up and looked at several princes and said, "There is no problem with this soup. ”

"There's nothing wrong with this soup, but what about the bowl?" Nangong Lichuan did not hesitate.

When the imperial doctor heard Nangong Lichuan's words, he suddenly became enlightened, squatted down and went to the broken bowl, reached out and touched the edge of the bowl and found that the edge of the bowl was slippery and thick, and he was horrified, so he scraped it a little and put it on his nose to smell it, it was poisonous.

Nangong Lichuan knew what he had discovered when he saw the appearance of the imperial doctor, and he was disapproving, and slowly asked, "How is it?" The cause can be found. ”

"I found it, it's the side of this bowl that is poisonous." The Imperial Physician exclaimed.

The queen on the side turned pale, how could this be possible, the prince saw the queen like that and said: "This is so likely to be poisonous, do you want to frame the queen, you are guilty." ”

"Why bother the prince, look at the doctor who scares the people, does the prince believe it or is he hiding something?" Nangong Lichuan's words put the prince in the eyes of everyone, and everyone looked at each other, vaguely guessing, looking like the queen with a little suspicion.

"Nangong Lichuan, you don't want to sow discord, why do you say the queen without evidence? And this soup bowl has passed through the hands of so many people, maybe someone wants to frame the queen. ”

"Anyway, the queen is the most suspicious." Nangong Lichuan said lukewarmly.

The prince's face was displeased, this Nangong Li Chuan wanted to estimate the re-application, the queen was his mother, if the queen's "crime" was decided, then how much impact would it have on him, the prince.

Nangong Li Chuan was very happy with the prince's deflated expression, and the ministers on the side didn't know what to do for a while, and one of the Li Wang's henchmen said: "The queen is actually a suspect, then you should investigate this matter, whether someone framed her, or someone intended to murder Your Majesty." ”

"This king also thinks, I don't know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thinks?"

"This prince is according to what the minister said, but this matter is important, about the queen, so this time the candidate must be fair."

"Oh, who's the crown prince?" Nangong Lichuan asked with interest.

"That's him, Chen Chen." The prince pointed directly at Chen Chen, who was standing inside the minister, so people looked at Chen Chen, and when Chen Chen saw that people were looking at him, he bowed to the prince and said, "Chen Chen Xie is valued by the prince, and he will definitely live up to the prince's expectations." ”

"Good." Nangong Lichuan gritted his teeth and said.

"This Chen Gongzi is not on the side of the court, it seems that the prince has chosen the right one."

"You shouldn't have any opinions." The prince suddenly asked rhetorically, and everyone below had two words.

"No comment."

Nangong Lichuan regained his indifferent look, Nangong Yueli didn't feel any worries, heh, this has just begun, and the show is still to come.

Soon the queen was guarded in the palace, and Gonggong Chen and everyone who had the opportunity to contact in the imperial dining room were interrogated one by one, but they did not find a suspicious discovery, Chen Chen's eyes were slightly dark, no matter how much this person did, it was impossible not to have a trace of flaws, and he was puzzled in his heart.

On the other side, Nangong Lichuan returned to the palace, and Tan Xiangxue was already waiting for him to come back for dinner in the front hall.

"Lord Wang, you're back."

"Hmm." Nangong Lichuan stepped forward and sat down, saw the food still steaming on the table, raised his chopsticks and ate it.

"The prince is in a good mood today."

"Okay, how are you doing?"

"Lord Xie cares, and the concubine is in good health."

"Hmm."

After the two finished eating, Tan Xiangxue went back to the house to rest, and Nangong Lichuan went back to the study, and Ruoying followed in the dark, until Nangong Lichuan called him out in the study.

"If the Shadow King is going to succeed."

"Congratulations to my master."

"What this king wants hasn't been missed."

Ruoying listened quietly, he didn't have to say or do anything. After a while, Nangong Li Chuan slowly spoke: "You will go to the Lying State Mansion in a while and secretly put this letter in his study." ”

"Yes." Ruoying took the letter in Nangong Lichuan's hand and was about to leave, and couldn't help but ask, "Isn't the prince afraid that Chen Chen will find something?" ”

"He can't find out."

“!” Why is the prince so confident that Chen Chen can't find out, what kind of poisoning method is it?

Before she could do it, Wakage turned around and left to run errands.

The one in the Guogong Mansion is a well-known protector, if he knows that his daughter is slandered, then he will not sit idly by, as long as he comes forward Nangong Lichuan He Chou has no way to deal with the prince, no matter what he does, Nangong Lichuan has already dug a pit and is waiting for the other party to jump, it can be said that everything is under control.

Ruoying rode a handsome horse towards the outside of the city, this prince was not in the capital, but in Los Angeles, it would take a morning to leave the capital, and sure enough, if he was fast, he would probably be able to arrive at the end of the day.

The prince was faintly uneasy, and went out of the door, just at this moment Chen Chen had returned, and he saluted the prince and said, "The minister has seen the prince." ”

When the prince saw that his face was a little better, he asked, "But what is wrong with you?" ”

"The minister is incompetent and hasn't found out what is like that, so this thing is weird, and the minister will continue to investigate until he finds the truth."

The prince was impatient, he wanted to come to Nangong Lichuan to do business, it was not easy to catch him, his eyes flashed a trace of ruthlessness, Chen Chen, who was kneeling on the ground, was in a trance, this prince is not as peaceful as that, then if her sister is with him, then she will suffer, after a while, the prince said slowly: "It's hard, you go down and get busy first." ”

Chen Chen got up and retreated, leaving the prince alone to be quiet, Chen Chen looked at the depression and majesty on Nangong Yueli's body with his back to him, that kind of innate aura, if he is not angry, he is powerful, but such a person gives people a sense of distance, and walks forward, everyone has their own destiny, and everyone will have their own creation.

Ruoying successfully arrived in Los Angeles, it was almost past midnight at this moment, when he invaded the mansion, the Guogong Mansion was just meal time, and easily entered the inner courtyard, it took some time for Ruoying to find the study of the Guogong Mansion, and entered the study to look at the study, this Guogong is extremely rich, look at the good South Wood table, the sandalwood bookcase is faint, if there is no fragrance is very comfortable, come to the desk and put the letter on it before leaving.

Nangong Xingchen finally found time to find Luo Wushuang, as soon as he entered the courtyard, he smelled a fragrance, and when he entered, he realized that the fragrance came from this roast chicken, and several people around the fire happily talked about how to eat the roast chicken to be delicious, and saw Luo Wushuang in the team with a slight Yang, this is Luo Wushuang's great pursuit of eating, to a person who is easy to satisfy, and slowly walked to the front of Nangong Xingchen.

Xiao Lan said suddenly: "I forgot to collect my clothes, I'll go back first, and Miss will remember to leave some slaves in a while." ”

Xiaolan was about to get up, seeing that Xiaozhu and Xiaoju on both sides did not react, she couldn't help but rub her eyes, and the person who came was shocked and immediately found an excuse to collect her clothes, so Luo Wushuang was seriously flipping the roast chicken on the shelf, and he didn't see the eyes of a few people.

"Shouldn't you have suffered it just now, you guys should leave me alone."

Luo Wushuang said angrily, in a rather aggrieved tone, a few people retreated or advanced, and then looked at Nangong Xingchen's eyes, his heart was furious, eating chicken is a small matter, but he can't offend Nangong Xingchen, the black-bellied prince.
