Chapter 43: The Regent

Regardless of whether Xia Yu is in Rui Wang's Mansion or not, Dongfang Xu can't go for the time being. After all, Zhao Shuo's palm was hit by him, and whether he was really injured or not, with the regent's warning in front, Dongfang Xu didn't want to make any extraneous trouble.

Turning back to the Regent's Mansion, Dongfang Xu walked unhurriedly towards the ancient well in the backyard. There were two internal guards standing next to the ancient well, and when they saw Dongfang Xu coming over, they pulled a green brick at the mouth of the well without saying a word.

A crack opened in the ground, and Dongfang Xu climbed the stairs down and entered the secret passage.

In the long and dark secret passage, there is one person in ten steps, and the lights are bright.

When he reached the main room, he paused.

Through the stone gate, I heard Dongfang Yue's henchman, Jing Ming, sigh lightly, "Lord Wang, it's useless." ”

Dongfang Yue slapped the stone case with one palm, "Throw it out." "Look up coldly," Get in. ”

Hearing this, Dongfang Xu took a deep breath and pushed the door in, "Father-in-law." ”

"All of them are waste, what is the use of me raising you?" The moment the sound fell, everyone fell to their knees, and there was a dead air both indoors and outdoors. Let the East be more and more angry, there is a price to pay.

Yun Guan shouted outside, "Lord, the palace has come to report that the princess is sick." ”

As soon as he finished saying this, he heard the sound of broken bones for a while.

The cold wind whistled by, and no one knew what was happening, only remembering that along the way, the internal guards flew over, one by one, like sandbags thrown out, and they were shaken out by the huge force that galloped by.

Except for Dongfang Xu and Jingming, everyone slammed into the stone wall and fell to the ground heavily. There was a muffled sound, then a dead silence.

By the time Dongfang Xu came out of the secret passage, Dongfang Yue had already ridden away and went straight to the palace.

Corning Palace.

The Empress Dowager Bo Yao and the Emperor Zhao Lu were both in the outer cabinet, and the imperial doctors were busy in the cabinet.

"Don't worry, the queen mother, the imperial sister Jiren has her own natural appearance, and she will be fine." Zhao Lu hugged the Empress Dowager Bo Yao.

Empress Dowager Bo Yao's face was not very good, and her eyes were burning.

The imperial physician stepped forward, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager, the princess's condition has stabilized." It's because the wound is infected again, so the high fever does not go away. After taking the medicine, the fever will be fine, so please rest assured that the emperor and the queen mother will not be in trouble. ”

Empress Dowager Bo Yao was relieved, "It's so good." ”

After speaking, he walked in with Zhao Lu.

Before he reached the cabinet, he heard a loud shout outside, "How is the princess?" ”

Empress Dowager Bo Yao was shocked, and there was still no wave on her face, she just glanced at Zhao Lu. Looking up again, Dongfang Yue was already close to him, Zhao Lu's hand subconsciously trembled, and she lowered her voice, "It's okay." ”

Zhao Lu nodded silently, not even daring to look at Dongfang Yue.

Dongfang Yue snorted coldly, "How is the princess?" ”

After all, it is the princess's bedroom, and Dongfang Yue is a foreign minister. The foreign ministers were not summoned, which damaged the reputation of the princess. That's why he stopped and asked the Empress Dowager Bo Yao instead.

Empress Dowager Bo Yao said, "It's fine, and when the fever subsides after taking medicine, it's fine." ”

"Why did you get sick?" The more cold the East.

"This matter will be dealt with by the mourning family." Empress Dowager Bo Yao spoke very slowly, speaking calmly, as if she was trying her best to curb her mood swings, "Don't bother the regent." ”

Hearing this, Dongfang Yue glanced at Zhao Lu and suddenly stepped forward.

Startled, Zhao Lu took a few steps back, his breath was slightly short, and he hurriedly met Dongfang Yue's sharp eyes.

"Regent." Empress Dowager Bo Yao shouted, and without saying a word, she blocked in front of Zhao Lu.

Dongfang Yue smiled extremely coldly, but he bowed slightly, hugged his fists and said, "Old minister-see the emperor." ”

Zhao Lu clenched his sleeves tightly, and his voice trembled slightly, "The regent is exempt, exempt." ”

"I heard that the emperor has recently been addicted to Luban's technique, the emperor is the king of a country, how can he lose his mind and ignore the people of the world? In this way, how can the old minister be worthy of the grace of the first emperor? Dongfang straightened up.

"The world, the world has its own regent and ministers, I can rest assured." Zhao Lu's face turned pale, and he hid behind the Empress Dowager Bo Yao and trembled.

Dongfang Yue sneered, "The emperor loves him, and the ministers will definitely live up to the emperor's favor." The affairs of the court, the old ministers will definitely handle it properly, and the emperor can rest assured. ”

"With the Lord Regent here, I don't have anything to worry about." Zhao Lu laughed more ugly than crying.

"The emperor is also tired, go back and rest!" Empress Dowager Bo Yao took a deep breath.

Zhao Luru was released, "I will obey the decree of the queen mother, and the sons and daughters will go back immediately." With that, he almost trotted all the way out of the Corning Palace. The little eunuch on the side, while running, was busy wiping the cold sweat on Zhao Lu's forehead.

All the minions retreated, and in the outer pavilion of Kangning Palace, only Dongfang Yue and Empress Dowager Bo Yao looked at each other.

Dongfang Yue stepped forward step by step, and the Empress Dowager Bo Yao's palms were wet, but she still stood still.

"Why did the princess get sick?" Dongfang Yue narrowed his dangerous eyes, his sharp gaze as sharp as a blade, slashed at Bo Yao's cheek, and suddenly shouted, "Say!" ”

Bo Yao's body stiffened, and he quickly gave him a cold look, "What does the regent think?" ”
