Chapter 278: Mo Yu Pavilion
Jiang Liuli saw that the prince suddenly smiled coldly at King Yong'an, what he did was really ridiculous, did she really think she was a fool? If she can't see such a clumsy drama, then she shouldn't mix it up in the rivers and lakes.
It's King Yong'an, his true feelings for the emperor are true, it seems that the emperor treats him very well on weekdays, otherwise the relationship between father and son would not be so deep.
After King Yong'an saw the emperor, he stood aside and bowed his head silently, making it impossible to see his emotions clearly.
Lan Tingxuan stepped forward to diagnose the emperor's pulse, and the pulse was exactly the same as in the morning, and it had not changed at all, and it seemed that the prescription was useless.
"Wait and see, after all, it's only the first time I've taken that medicine today." Jiang Liuli knew what he was thinking as soon as he saw his expression, and hurriedly comforted him.
"Hmm." He nodded helplessly, because he was too anxious.
After seeing the emperor, several people retreated from Zhengyang Palace, Jiang Liuli and Lan Tingxuan hurried to the Imperial Garden, intending to see if the two children were making trouble.
The prince originally wanted to follow, but was stopped by an attendant, saying that the queen was invited, he unwillingly glanced at Jiang Liuli's back, and turned away gloomily.
The beauty who had been following him saw that he didn't even look at himself, and he was both resentful and aggrieved, he used to love himself so much, and he was about to fall out of favor in less than a month?
She looked at Jiang Liuli who was walking away, her eyes were full of hatred, it was because of her prince that she would snub her, if there was no her, would the prince turn his attention back to himself?
Thinking of this, she had a vicious thought in her heart, as long as she disappeared, she would be the most beautiful beauty in the palace, and the prince would definitely love her again.
Jiang Liuli didn't know that she was being remembered, and she only wanted to see the child.
"Ma'am." King Yong'an, who had been following her, saw that there was no one around, and hurriedly called her to stop.
Hearing the call, she stopped and turned to look at him coldly, this road was the only way to leave the palace, so it was not strange for him to follow her at first, but she didn't expect him to suddenly stop her.
"Thank you, ma'am." King Yong'an looked at her gratefully, she had deliberately said those words when she was in the imperial garden just now, the purpose was to let the crown prince take him to visit the emperor, which he saw very clearly.
"You're smart." She looked at him approvingly, but she didn't expect that he had already seen through her plan, but she didn't have a chance to thank him.
"If it weren't for Madame's help, I don't think I would have been able to see my father today." He smiled sadly, he didn't expect it to be so difficult to see his father.
"Why did you let the prince bully you and not resist?" She looked at him curiously, with his ingenuity, he shouldn't be bullied by the stupid prince and had no power to fight back, maybe he did it to make the prince let his guard down against him.
"If I hadn't been stupid, I would have died in the palace." He did not shy away from saying that he would never trust a person easily, but for Jiang Liuli who met for the first time, he inexplicably believed in her.
Listening to his words, it suddenly became clear that sometimes people who are too smart will be remembered by the wicked, although stupid words will often be bullied, but at least they can save their lives, especially in this emperor's house, it is not a good thing to be too smart.
"Madam, you have to be careful of the queen and the crown prince." He looked at Jiang Liuli with a worried face, and then looked at Lan Tingxuan, who was silent on the side, it was too unsafe for them to live in the palace.
"Don't worry, no one can hurt me." She said confidently that there are few people in this world who can hurt her, and the stupid prince doesn't pay attention to it.
"Although the prince is stupid, the queen is the most terrifying, she has always been ruthless in doing things, you have to be careful." King Yong'an is not worried about the crown prince, but he is very jealous of the queen, he has lived in the palace for so many years, and naturally understands the queen's methods.
"Thanks for the reminder, I see." Seeing that he trusted her so much when they first met, she smiled with satisfaction, sure enough, he was the son of his stepmother, and he was so good in every aspect.
King Yong'an was relieved to see that she had already taken care of this matter, and after this matter was over, it was time to ask about the emperor's condition.
"Doctor Lan, madam, when will my father's illness get better?" He looked at the two of them with a worried face, and always felt that this matter was not so simple.
Jiang Liuli turned her head to look at Lan Tingxuan, wanting to ask him if he should tell him about it?
"Lord, in fact, the emperor is not sick, but poisoned." Lan Tingxuan looked at her expression and knew that she actually wanted to say it, but she was just a little entangled, so she could only help her say it.
"What?" King Yong'an's eyes widened in shock, although he had always felt that the emperor was a little strange, but he didn't expect it to be poisoned.
"Doctor Lan, can my father's poison be cured?" He asked anxiously, now he can't care who is poisoned, he just wants to help the emperor detoxify as soon as possible.
"Sorry, there's nothing we can do." Lan Tingxuan lowered his head apologetically, as a doctor, he always felt very incompetent when he said this.
King Yong'an looked at him, and then at Jiang Liuli on the side, and then closed his eyes in pain, and the hands hanging by his side trembled faintly.
He has lost his mother, is he going to lose his father now? Why did God treat him so unfairly?
"Father, what kind of poison is in him?" He asked bitterly, although he knew that the emperor was no longer saved, he still didn't want to give up.
"The emperor is the poison of rare flowers." Lan Tingxuan said helplessly, he had never even seen a rare flower, and it was impossible to develop an antidote.
"What?" His eyes widened in shock again, he knew best what a rare flower was, but he didn't expect his father to be poisoned like this.
He staggered two steps back in a trance, the poison of the rare flower had no solution at all, no one could do anything, and at this moment he didn't want to give up and could only give up.
Thinking that his father, who had loved him since he was a child, was about to leave him, he couldn't bear the blow for a while, staggered back a few steps, and then walked back with long legs.
Jiang Liuli frowned as he looked at the figure he left, it wasn't the direction of leaving the palace, it seemed to be the direction of going to the harem, who was he looking for?
"Tingxuan, I'll take a look." She said uneasily, he was very emotionally unstable at the moment, and if something happened, he would not be able to explain to his stepmother.
"Be careful." Lan Tingxuan looked at her worriedly, he knew the identity of King Yong'an, so he also knew what Jiang Liuli was worried about.
Jiang Liuli got his permission and hurriedly chased after King Yong'an, but fortunately, he didn't go far yet, and soon caught up, so in order not to be discovered by others, he hurriedly hid himself.
In this way, she secretly followed King Yong'an all the way to the door of a secluded palace, she looked up at the plaque on the palace, and found that she had followed him to the palace "Moyu Pavilion" where her stepmother once lived.
The palaces where the concubines of the harem live are all certain palaces, but the palace where the stepmother lives is called "Moyu Pavilion", which is unique enough to prove how important the status of the stepmother is in the emperor's heart.
In the past, the prosperity of Moyu Pavilion was the palace second only to the queen in the harem, and the former magnificence is now long gone, because no one has cleaned it for a long time, it has long become depressed, and it can be compared with the cold palace.
Jiang Liuli watched King Yong'an walk into the Moyu Pavilion, and then closed the heavy door, she looked around, and after making sure that there was no one, she jumped directly onto the wall and flew into the palace wall.
The place where flowers and plants were originally planted in Moyu Pavilion is now overgrown with dead grass, and the artificially dug river not far away has dried up, leaving a big pit.
She followed King Yong'an to the bedroom, and walked in quietly, but was stunned by the situation inside, the appearance of the seemingly dilapidated place was exceptionally neat and clean, as if someone cleaned it every day, without a trace of dust, as if there were always people living in this dormitory.
"Mother, help me, save my father, I don't want him to die." Suddenly, the voice of King Yong'an was slightly crying in the bedroom.
Jiang Liuli walked towards the bedroom, looked in along the door that was not closed, and found that it was full of portraits, and the person in the portrait was a beautiful woman, but not a stepmother.
She looked at the portrait in confusion, why did she always feel that the person on the portrait was so familiar?
"Mother, now I only have one relative left for my father, if even he leaves me, I will really become a lonely person." King Yong'an looked at the portrait and said to himself.
Jiang Liuli's eyes widened in shock, could it be that his biological mother was this woman and not his stepmother? But why did his stepmother adopt him in her own name?
Her brilliant brain was now on the verge of a pulp, and so many questions came to her mind that her mind was messy.
"Mother, you must bless him and let him live well." After King Yong'an cried for a while, his emotions slowly recovered.
Jiang Liuli saw that he was leaving, and hurriedly found a place to hide, originally planning to wait for him to leave and then sneak in to take a good look at the woman on the portrait, who would have thought that he not only did not leave, but even took out a wooden basin and cloth towel from another room, and skillfully wiped the clean and tidy table with the cloth towel.
"Mother, this was once a place that my father wanted to protect, but now it is guarded by my sons, and no one wants to destroy this place." King Yong'an said to himself while wiping the table, looking at his skillful appearance, he knew that it was not the first time he had done such a thing.
Listening to his tone, could it be that the emperor often wipes Moyu Pavilion like this? If this is the case, then the emperor really loves his mother, but is the person he loves the woman in the portrait or the stepmother? It is not known for the time being.
Jiang Liuli took advantage of King Yong'an to change the water and quietly walked into the bedroom, stood still in the corner he couldn't see, and looked at the portraits in the room with a thoughtful expression.
She was sure she had seen the woman in the portrait, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it, and she was angry that her once-proud memory had gone wrong at a critical moment.
She closed her eyes, letting her agitated mood calm down, and then cleared all the images in her mind, leaving only this portrait.
Suddenly, she caught a clue in her mind, she stepped forward and carefully examined the woman in the portrait, and finally found an extremely small red mole on the woman's erect neck.
