Chapter 2: Shock

Six years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the little doll in the swaddling clothes has now grown into a cute little girl of Yuxue.

"Princess, where do you want to run if you don't go to class?" A little girl in pink was full of worry and grabbed the little girl in front of her who wanted to run away, the little girl turned around, and her little face was full of sadness written on her little face like Shen Guifei, and she said in a soft and glutinous voice: "The mother concubine is sick, I just want to go and see her." "This person is the daughter of Shen Guifei, the second daughter of the emperor, Zong Zhengjin.

Two years ago, Shen Shulan was pregnant again, but when she was about to give birth, she had an inexplicable miscarriage, the emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation, but in the end it was announced that it was an accident. But since then, Shen Shulan's body has become weaker and weaker, and her condition has become worse and worse, and it has been useless for the emperor to find many famous doctors, and now Shen Shulan is even more bedridden.

"But princess, if Shen Niangniang knew that you didn't go to class, she would definitely be very angry." The girl in pink tried her best to dissuade her, this girl is not someone else, but Zhao Qing, the granddaughter of Zhao's mother, Zong Zhengjin needed a playmate before, but in the palace, Shen Shulan was not at ease, so Zhao's mother took her granddaughter in, and the two children were also very close to each other, and now they are inseparable.

"If you don't say it, won't anyone know? And I went in from behind, and I just looked at my mother and left. "Zong Zhengjin sincerely said that she hadn't seen her mother for two days, and her father said that her mother was seriously ill and was afraid of contagion, so he didn't let her see her." Alright then, just one look and we'll go. Zhao Qing finally agreed to her and went to Shulan Palace with Zong Zhengjin.

In Shulan Palace, the smell of medicine is permeated, and on the high-quality pear blossom wood bed, a woman sleeps lightly with her hair draped, and her beautiful face is pale and weak. The slightly curled eyelashes moved suddenly, she slowly opened her eyes, the discomfort of her body made her cough and pant violently, probably because she felt that her mouth was dry, and her hoarse voice called "come here", but after waiting for a long time, no one came, and the room was terrible.

She was witty and suddenly felt bad, and just wanted to get out of bed, a cold and lazy voice came in, "Why haven't I seen my sister for so many days, my sister has lost weight like this, tsk." She turned her head to look, the person who came was dressed in a purple palace dress, and his exquisite face was a little more indifferent against the backdrop of the gorgeous phoenix crown, this person was the head of the harem, the imperial concubine Xu Yingrong, since she Shen Guifei fell ill, she was alone in this harem.

Shen Shulan didn't think she was here to visit the patient, and asked in a weak voice, "What are you doing here?" ”

Xu Yingrong chuckled at her, and said in a soft and cold voice, "I'm here to see my sister." ”

"There are no outsiders here, you don't have to pretend." As her opponent, Shen Shulan knows her true face, so there is no need to pretend.

Upon hearing this, Xu Yingrong really lowered his face and mocked: "You are really smart, you are worthy of being the opponent of this palace for many years, but no matter how smart you are, it is useless, today, it is your death, Qiaoxiang." Hearing the sound, a person walked in outside the house, dressed in white and in a green dress, it was Shen Shulan's palace maid Qiaoxiang, but at this time, she looked at the woman on the bed with a sneering face, holding a bowl of medicinal soup in her hand.

"Qiaoxiang, you ······" Shen Shulan looked at her in disbelief, she knew that Qiao Xiang was angry, but she didn't expect her to betray herself, why?

"Hehe, Shen Shulan, Shen Shulan, you didn't expect it, Qiaoxiang is already a person from this palace." Seeing Shen Shulan's painful expression, Xu Yingrong didn't mention how happy she was, she just wanted to make her miserable, if it wasn't for the appearance of this woman back then, how could the emperor not love her, and even after she gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, she didn't canonize her as the queen, isn't it because of this woman? Well, then she will not get anything but this woman, and no one else can think of it.

"Oh, by the way, since you are already a dying person, then this palace might as well tell you again, when you had a miscarriage, this Qiaoxiang helped me a lot, and with her care in the past two years, your health is not very good." Hahaha。。。。。。 Xu Yingrong's smile trembled, but Shen Shulan was desperate, when she had a miscarriage, she had already guessed that it was the poison of the Xu family, not only she knew, but the emperor also knew, but they had no evidence, the emperor's foundation was unstable, and he couldn't move the Xu family at all, Shen Shulan had no choice but to endure it. But she never thought that she would have a wolf by her side, but now she has harmed herself.

"Xu Yingrong, you are already the head of the harem, and you have the eldest son of the emperor, why do you want to do this to me?" Shen Shulan tried her best to argue with her, but when she heard this, Xu Yingrong instantly lost control and roared: "This palace doesn't want these, what this palace wants is the emperor's love, but what?" The emperor only has you in his heart, even if you are seriously ill in bed, he will not reduce his love for you at all, why? Why can you get the emperor's love, but I can't, I'm not reconciled, so you have to die, only when you die, I can get the emperor, you have to die. Xu Yingrong excitedly stepped forward and pushed her down fiercely, Shen Shulan was dizzy from the impact, and she gasped weakly, it seemed that her limit had come.

"Enough, Xu Yingrong, you are wrong, the emperor favors me only because I don't fight or rob, if you can be sincere to the emperor, he will love you." She couldn't irritate this woman anymore, otherwise she would hurt Ah Jin if she went crazy.

"Shut up, stop talking nonsense, you're going to die today." Under the gesture of her eyes, Qiao Xiang took the medicinal soup and walked towards Shen Shulan step by step, "You will have retribution." Shen Shulan's eyes were full of hatred, she had never hated a person like this, but this Qiaoxiang was successfully hated by her, seeing the medicinal juice poured into her mouth little by little, she couldn't do anything, in a trance, she seemed to see Ah Jin, the girl was calling her, but why couldn't she hear it.

Seeing that Shen Shulan was out of breath, Xu Yingrong was really excited, finally, her strongest enemy was dead, and she could finally regain the emperor's favor.

"You know what to do." Xu Yingrong glanced at Qiaoxiang, "The slave knows." Qiaoxiang had a successful face, as soon as Shen Shulan died, she would soon be pointed out to Concubine Xu's palace, and when the time came, if she was promoted by Concubine Guifei, then her future would be bright. After being assured, Xu Yingrong walked out with a smile, Qiao Xiang retreated, and neither of them noticed the figure that flashed outside the window.

"Let go of me, let go of my ······" Zong Zhengjin cried and shouted, the scene in Shulan Palace made her frightened, the moment she saw her mother being forced to drink the poison, she and Zhao Qing instinctively wanted to go out to stop it, but they were caught by the white-clothed young man in front of them and brought them here.

As soon as the man let go of them, Zong Zhengjin ran back eagerly, she was going to save her mother." If you want your mother to die without turning a blind eye, then go ahead. The man's quiet voice sounded behind him, and the two suddenly stopped.

Zong Zhengjin turned around, looked at him angrily, and said viciously: "If it weren't for you, I would definitely be able to save my mother." ”

When the man heard this, he sneered coldly: "What do you think you can do is just let that woman take the opportunity to kill you." When the time comes, your mother will die in vain. "You're talking nonsense!" Zong Zhengjin was enraged, stepped forward and grabbed his arm and bit it, the man screamed in pain, but he didn't push her away, Zhao Qing didn't stop it on the side, she also hated this man for stopping them.

It wasn't until the blood was bitten through his clothes that Zong Zhengjin relented, and then squatted on the ground and cried. Seeing that she was much calmer, the man spoke: "You must go back now as if nothing happened, otherwise you will be in danger." ”

"I can't do it." Zong Zhengjin raised his little face full of tears and resolutely disagreed.

"If you can't do it, you have to do it, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, didn't your mother teach you?" The man's tone was flat, but it was impossible to refuse.

Zong Zhengjin was silent, and after a while, she looked at him and asked, "Who are you?" Why help me? ”

"I am the national teacher Yi Chu. It's just a coincidence to help you. ”

"Thank you." Zong Zhengjin really calmed down now, and knew that this person was really helping them just now. "It's okay, it's not too early, you should go back." Yi Chu kindly reminded him, Zong Zhengjin nodded, thought for a moment, wiped the tears on his face, and turned around and left with Zhao Qing. Meng Xia stood there for a moment, then walked towards the other side of the palace.

Yi Chu walked slowly all the way to Hanyuan Palace, while his master was waiting for him in the hall. "Master, why are you free?" He respectfully bowed to Xuan Jizi and asked in surprise.

Seeing him coming, Xuanjizi didn't answer Yi Chu's question, but his frowning brows finally relaxed a little, and he asked in a deep voice, "How?" ”

"Sure enough, everything is as expected by the master, Concubine Shen has passed away, and Princess Jin has been rescued by the apprentice." Yi Chu replied, although he didn't know why the master had to ask him to save Princess Jin, but since it was the master's order, then he would carry it out.

"Alas! The ordeal has just begun. Xuanjizi sighed, looked at Yi Chu, and ordered solemnly: "Chu'er, for the teacher, I order you, from now on, you must secretly protect Princess Jin." ”

"Why, Master?" Yi Chu couldn't figure out why even if he was the next king, he had to be protected.

"You don't have to ask, you'll know when the time comes." "Yes." Seeing that the master didn't mention the reason, Yi Chu had no choice but to agree. "Okay, you go and practice." Xuan Jizi waved his hand, and Yi Chu bowed and went out. Looking at the back of his lover's departed disciple, Xuanjizi's blazing eyes were also a little confused and helpless, and he didn't know whether this fate in this world was a blessing or a curse.

Just as he was thinking, a man in black barged in. "Master."

As soon as Xuan Jizi saw that it was his junior brother Su Li, his face immediately sank, "What are you doing here?" ”

"Senior brother, do you really want to choose her?" Su Li's tone was very dissatisfied, "All this has been decided, I just follow the mandate of heaven." Xuan Jizi didn't bother to reason with him, turned around and brushed his sleeves away.

But Su Li suddenly shouted: "Senior brother, don't forget, there is another person who is also stained with purple qi." ”

"What do you want to do? I tell you, do not do anything against heaven, or you will be punished. Xuan Jizi reprimanded repeatedly, and Su Li snorted coldly, "I don't care if it's against the sky or not, I just know that this world can't be managed by a woman." Senior brother, since you don't dare, then you and I will part ways from now on, and see who can have the last laugh. With that, he walked away without looking back.

Hearing this, Xuan Jizi was so angry that he couldn't even speak, it seems that this junior brother is unreliable, but he is approaching, and he doesn't know if Yi Chu, who has not been learning hexagram for a long time, will be Su Li's opponent? Alas, he could only gamble.
