In the Qixia Palace, it was quiet, only a few candlesticks were lit in the huge hall, and the few lights could not illuminate the whole field, and the light and shadow in the dim corners were a little gloomy. All the palace maids and eunuchs have retired, and only Concubine Li Guifei and the third prince Li Tianci are still sitting opposite each other to discuss Luo Qingluan's affairs.

The prince stayed in the inner palace overnight, which was not allowed in Dongwan Kingdom, but Xiao Tianci had special circumstances. Yesterday, he suddenly fell ill at night, and Concubine Li Guifei hurriedly went to tell Emperor Dongwan that he should live in the palace to recuperate, and if there was a problem, the imperial doctor could diagnose and treat it in time. Emperor Dongwan didn't think much about it, he was his own son, and he was sick in a special situation, so he allowed it.

At this time, it was just right, but the mother and son became more and more suspicious of Luo Qingluan, speculating whether someone behind her was planning her to do this.

"God, think about it, could it be your big brother who did it?" This has always been Concubine Li Guifei's speculation, after all, if her son Li Tianci destroys his body, the biggest beneficiary is Xiao Yuqi.

In Concubine Li's heart, Xiao Tianci won the heart of Emperor Dongwan so much, so he should naturally be the prince. However, she is not the eldest son, and her name is not right, even if she says it to Emperor Dongwan, she is afraid that the minister will not agree, not to mention that Emperor Dongwan himself also likes Xiao Yuqi.

This thought has always been hidden in her heart, usually, Li Guifei always said in front of Emperor Dongwan how Xiao Tianci is filial piety and benevolence, and has the demeanor of Emperor Dongwan, so as to deepen the impression in Emperor Dongwan's heart. Behind the scenes, Li Guifei also did a lot of things, and bit Xiao Yuqi, but it always had little effect, and was quietly resolved by the other party.

And this time, Li Guifei had to suspect that it was Xiao Yuqi's counterattack. has been pitted by her for so long, but I am afraid that I can't help it, and I want to kill her. That's why he directly came up with such a vicious method, directly drew his salary from the bottom of the kettle, and cut off Xiao Tianci's roots!

It is impossible for a prince who has no fertility to inherit the throne!

Xiao Tianci frowned and pondered, saying that he hadn't thought about Xiao Yuqi, but it was impossible. But according to what he knew about his eldest brother, he felt that it was impossible. But the royal family has never talked about family affection, whether it is his father or the emperor, or the dynasties, which person who sat on the throne did not go through all kinds of hardships and hardships, and finally succeeded in the bloody storm?

He didn't believe that Xiao Yuqi didn't want to be the emperor, so he gave him the position of the crown prince that he had in his hands, but Xiao Yuqi's usual performance made him feel that it was impossible to do such a vicious thing, emotion and reason contradicted each other, and Xiao Tianci did not answer for a while.

"What's the matter, Emperor, did you think of something?" Li Guifei was a little anxious.

"Mother, will this matter have nothing to do with the eldest brother?" After a long while, Xiao Tianci finally came up with a sentence.

Li Guifei's face sank when she heard this: "Godci, you are confused, right?" You actually believe your big brother? "She looks like she hates iron but not steel, she usually thinks it doesn't matter if Xiao Tianci eats, drinks and has fun, but once it comes to the major events of the throne, Concubine Li Guifei can't tolerate him to hesitate at all.

"It's so obvious, you still don't know? If it weren't for your eldest brother who instructed that girl to do it, could it be that that girl came to offend you for no reason? You don't want to think about it, as the third prince, how many people dare to offend you, if you don't have a backer or instructive, do you really think she doesn't want to live anymore? ”

With a resentful face, Li Guifei aimed all her anger at Xiao Tianci and vented: "You want to be angry with your mother, right?" ”

Xiao Tianci suddenly came to his senses and said continuously: "Mother, don't be angry, my son knows that he is wrong." But even if the son knows that the eldest brother did it, what can he do to her? My son is now subject to that stinky girl, and if she doesn't continue to treat me, then my son will not be the same...... It's a waste! ”

By the end of the day, he had already hung his head down, and the thought of the consequences was simply cold.

For a while, Concubine Li didn't speak, what she thought of was the same as Xiao Tianci. Even if they knew now that this matter was instructed by Xiao Yuqi, what could they do? The other party is too ruthless, one blow will be hit, if they don't follow the words of the girl surnamed Luo, to be honest, I'm afraid that she will really not continue to treat.

Thinking of this, Li Guifei regretted a lot: "I knew earlier, I should have left that girl behind if I said anything today." ”

"Mother, it seems ...... now" After a long groan, Xiao Tianci's cheeks twitched a few times, and said tentatively: "My son still has to heal his body first, I think, it's better to listen to that girl first, anyway, she doesn't want anything too much......"

"Is there anything else she could ask for?" Hearing this, Concubine Li suddenly felt that something was wrong, and looked at Xiao Tianci strangely: "You say, did she let you do something?" ”

"No, no!" Xiao Tianci's heart jumped, and he immediately denied it: "It's really not, mother, how can my son listen to the words of a stinky girl, you can rest assured, it's really nothing." ”

"Really?" Li Guifei still didn't believe it.

Hearing this, Xiao Tianci was even more shocked, if he leaked the secret and was known by that girl, wouldn't he be really miserable? said that he would not let anyone know, including his mother, Xiao Tianci definitely wanted it, if he broke his promise, once Luo Qingluan received the news, he was afraid that he would never treat him again.

Even if this possibility was very small, Xiao Tianci did not dare to take risks.

He can't stand being a man who is neither a man nor a woman for the rest of his life, so now he only thinks that he must get his body right, and he must not have any accidents, even if his grandfather may really have problems, but ...... It's better to keep him first!

At the moment, it was a gambling curse and an oath, and Xiao Tianci finally dispelled Li Guifei's suspicions, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Forget it, Emperor, we can't do anything else at the moment, let's take care of your body first. As for the stinky girl, the mother concubine sent someone to monitor her first, in case she made trouble, everything will wait for your body to recover, and then we will slowly settle accounts with her and Xiao Yuqi. ”

Speaking of this, a vicious look flashed in Concubine Li's eyes, and she sneered: "However, your eldest brother is so ruthless to you, but the mother concubine can't bear this breath, and she can't deal with him for the time being, can't the mother concubine let his important people also taste the pain?" ”

With a move in his heart, Xiao Tianci said: "Mother, do you want to ......?"

With a sneer, Concubine Li said: "He can hurt you, can't the concubine find the same way to deal with his concubine?" Hmph, the queen mother is his mother, and she seduces your father all day long, I can't stand this anger. ”

Patting Xiao Tianci's shoulder, Concubine Li Guifei laughed gloomily: "If the mother concubine finds an opportunity, she will definitely make the queen suffer a little, even if Xiao Yuqi is unlucky, let's see if he has the courage to attack you in the future." ”

"Then ......" Xiao Tianci was extremely entangled, and thought for a while: "Mother, you have to be careful." ”

"Don't worry, I've been fighting with that woman for so many years, and the mother doesn't have a number in her heart?"

……

Two days later, in the Hundred Grass Hall.

The atmosphere that had been dull for a long time was finally swept away, Fang Hongyan happily held Chen Ziqiu's hand, excited: "Qiuzi, Qiuzi, you are fine, Miss Luo said, as long as you take medicine for a few more days, the injury will be able to heal." ”

Lying on the bed, Chen Ziqiu's face was already a little rosy, and his strength had recovered a lot. She nodded, turned her head to look at Luo Qingluan on the side, and said gratefully: "Miss Luo, thank you very much." ”

Chen Dong bowed directly to Luo Qingluan: "Thank you, Miss Luo, if it weren't for you, I would really ......."

Luo Qingluan helped him: "Mr. Chen doesn't need to make a big salute, Miss Chen was also injured for the task, I helped her heal, this is as it should be." ”

Seeing what Chen Dong was going to say, Xu Lian on the side smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, if you really want to thank our young lady, why don't you let her take a break." Treat Miss Qiuzi's injuries, and the young lady is tired and sweating. ”

But no, Chen Dong saw that Luo Qingluan's face was flushed, and even sweat came out, and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, I almost forgot, Xiao Fang, why don't you hurry up and bring some herbal tea to Miss Luo and moisten her throat." ”

Now Fang Hongyan simply regarded Luo Qingluan as his great benefactor, and immediately said, "Okay, I'll go." ”

After a while, Fang Hongyan brought a large pot of sour plum soup, put it on the table, and gave a bowl to one person: "Come, Miss Luo try this sour plum soup, this is what Qiuzi taught me, I drank Shengjin to quench my thirst when it was hot, it was the most comfortable." ”

Xu Wei took the bowl and drank it dry in one go, only feeling thirst quenched, but nothing else. Seeing Fang Hongyansheng's slowness, he simply started directly. Xu Lian asked him with a smile: "Xu Wei, is this soup sweet or sour?" ”

"Ah......" I drank it too fast just now, Xu Wei only felt that it was refreshing, and it tasted good, but he didn't think it was sweet or sour for a while, and he was stunned there for a long time and couldn't speak. Seeing him like this, Xu Liange laughed: "Miss, look at him, it's really a cow drink, and he spoils things." ”

Xu Wei immediately blushed, got up embarrassed, put down the bowl and stopped drinking.

Seeing that the two of them were making amusement, Luo Qingluan smiled with her eyebrows, and only felt relaxed. She could see that during the time she came to Dongwan, Xu Wei and Xu Lian had been together, and they seemed to have some feelings, but they were only in the embryonic stage, and they teased each other, and they hadn't made it clear yet.

Fang Hongyan sat on the edge of the bed, holding Chen Ziqiu's hand, and the two whispered, not paying attention to the appearance of the others, as if there was no one around. Luo Qingluan watched quietly, with a feeling of wandering away from her eyes, and she remembered Nalan Night again.

I should be able to receive Nalan Ye's letter soon, right?

At this moment, a member of the Dark Night Hall came in, holding a black bird in his hand, and said to Chen Dong respectfully: "Mr. Chen, there is a book. ”

Chen Dong didn't do much, but Luo Qingluan reacted, and his heart suddenly jumped: "Dark Harrier? Is it a reply to me? ”

Suddenly remembering that Luo Qingluan asked him to write a letter to Nalan Ye before, which was transmitted by the Dark Harrier, Chen Dong immediately became nervous, not sure if it was written by their prince himself. Originally, he took out the note in the copper pipe, but such a simple action made him tremble a little, and it took a long time to take a two-inch-long roll of paper and hand it to Luo Qingluan.

"Miss Luo, this letter, it's up to you to read it, right?"

If it was usual, Luo Qingluan would definitely not interfere in the affairs of the Dark Night Hall without authorization, let alone go beyond Chen Dong's position to read the Dark Harrier's biography first, even if everyone already knew her identity. But she has been waiting for Nalan Ye's reply for several days, and she has been looking forward to it, where will she refuse?

Immediately took the paper scroll, Luo Qingluan quickly unfolded it, and when she saw the familiar handwriting on it, she was relieved at that moment.

With a smile on his face, Luo Qingluan was extremely relaxed, and said to the people who were looking at him: "It's Nalan Ye's reply." ”
