"What did you see the prince?" An Ronghua asked.

"I can't talk to anyone. An Xiuyuan kept silent.

"Have you ever done anything serious when you are so old, except for eating, drinking, and having fun, I really can't imagine that you still have something serious to tell the prince in person. ”

"Who are you? As if you know me very well, I tell you not to think that if you are good-looking, I will pity you, you are too arrogant. An Xiuyuan went back.

"Okay, if you can't say anything big and important today, I'll make you look good!"

An Xiu was far away from speaking to An Ronghua, so he had to see Xia Huaijin face him and say it. It is rare for An Ronghua to see this younger brother so serious, let alone to meet Xia Huaijin, he can't just joke.

An Ronghua took An Xiu into the Misremembering House to see Xia Huaijin, and he also had a grudge against An Ronghua.

"Lord Wang, is it okay for her to be there?" An Xiuyuan questioned.

"If you have something to say, say it quickly, or I'll kick you out!" An Ronghua was very stern.

"It's about the Queen-to-be!" An Xiuyuan threw a little.

"What's wrong with the prospective queen?" An Ronghua couldn't help frowning.

"You can know about the fact that she was appointed as the queen mother's assistant after the election. Xia Huaijin explained.

An Xiuyuan did not have any concerns about An Ronghua in this way, and told the two of them what he knew.

"Gu Nanxi is the eldest daughter of the Hubu Shangshu, and I have known Gu Nansheng, the youngest daughter of Gu Shangshu, since childhood, I took Nansheng into the palace to participate in the emperor's birthday banquet, and I was very curious about which one was her eldest sister, but she avoided talking about it, I thought she was just willful and did not agree with her half-sister. It wasn't until Gu Nanxi was elected as the quasi-queen that I learned from Nan Sheng's mouth that she said that her eldest sister died of illness in her hometown when she was young, and that Gu Nanxi was not Gu Nanxi at all!"

An Ronghua and Xia Huaijin were both shocked by this remark.

"This can't be nonsense, are you sure that Miss Gu is true?" Xia Huaijin asked.

"What she told me was that she had heard a country maid tell her father that the eldest lady had died of illness in her hometown. ”

"Where is the ancestral home of Gu Shangshu's family?" An Ronghua asked.

"Qingzhen. ”

Qingzhen was located around the imperial capital, while Qingzhou, which Gu Nanxi said at that time, was in the Jiangnan region.

"Qingzhou and Qingzhen, could it be that you heard it wrong?" An Ronghua didn't dare to guess easily, if Gu Nanxi was fake, then her motives were definitely not pure, "Huai Jin ......"

"This king immediately sent someone to Gu Mansion to invite Lord Shangshu into the palace, and we got up immediately. ”

The situation was so urgent that he drove the two of them to the palace in a carriage.

There was a silence in the palace, and after the election ceremony, the Shattered Moon Pavilion was also closed, and the Splendid Palace was empty.

Today, Xia Bingwen ordered people to send many gifts to Gu Nanxi, and it was rumored in the harem that the prospective queen was deeply pleased with the Sacred Heart. He made an appointment with Gu Nan and Xi Yuchi to meet, intending to explain her pretending to be a eunuch.

Gu Nanxi didn't dress up, and still wore the hosta.

On the Liusha Pavilion, Xia Bingwen is no longer a little eunuch who is embarrassed by the sunset, but an upright and dignified emperor. Gu Nanxi was stunned at the entrance of the pavilion, the memory here was vivid, and she hoped that Xia Bingwen was just the little eunuch who couldn't water.

"You're here!" Xia Bingwen greeted with a smile.

"Gu Jiali, you have to salute the emperor. Xiao Chengzi reminded.

"It's okay, take a seat. Xia Bingwen motioned for Xiao Chengzi to push it out.

Only Xia Bingwen and Gu Nanxi were left in the pavilion, and they were silent for a moment, silent to each other.

"Previously, I didn't mean to deceive you by posing as a eunuch. Xia Bingwen was a little nervous.

"I know, Gu Nu told me everything. ”

"yes, that's fine. Xia Bingwen continued, "And the matter of Qin Jiali last time, I also wronged you." ”

"It's the emperor who sees everything. ”

"Gu Nu said that I was emotional and indecisive, but she almost lost her life, so it's no wonder that I didn't deal with it impartially. ”

"Is the emperor really indecisive? In my opinion, you are the decisive and merciless king of a country. Gu Nanxi's tone became strange.

An Ronghua and Xia Huaijin rushed to Sheng'an Palace to learn that Xia Bingwen had made an appointment with Gu Nanxi to have tea in Yuchi.

An Ronghua became more and more uneasy, the so-called mother-son connection, so that she desperately ran in the palace and went to the Yuchi Liusha Pavilion.

A gust of wind passed through the yarn, the curtain flew up, and An Ronghua saw with his own eyes that the hosta plucked by Gu Nanxi was holding a sharp awl and piercing Xia Bingwen's chest.

"Bingwen!"

Gu Nanxi's hand trembled and let go, watching Xia Bingwen fall to the ground.

"Your Majesty!" Xiao Chengzi rushed in, and Gu Nanxi fled in a hurry.

An Ronghua was empty from that moment, and the sharp awl that poked Xia Bingwen's chest was no different from the stab on her body.

"Call the Imperial Doctor, catch her!" An Ronghua was heartbroken.

Although Gu Nanxi had martial arts, he was still taken down by the forbidden army after resisting a few moves.

Escorted over, An Ronghua helped Xia Bingwen in his arms, and his eyes were murderous and gloomy like never before.

"Go to the prison and wait for disposal!" An Ronghua ordered.

Xia Bingwen snuggled up to An Ronghua, he didn't lose consciousness, but the pain made him sweat.

"Uncle Wang, Gu Nu, I can't die, Queen Mother, I haven't come back yet......"

The palace could not be calm all night, and all the imperial doctors treated it together, and Xia Bing was blessed by heaven and was out of danger of life. Xia Bingwen slept in a coma for a night and a day, and the imperial doctors took turns to take care of him, but An Ronghua didn't close his eyes for a moment, forgot to sleep and eat, and didn't dare to leave Xia Bingwen for a single step.

In an instant, the setting sun filled Miyagi.

Xia Huaijin came to An Ronghua's side.

"Go and rest for a while, this king is watching. ”

"The prince will go back to the house first, I will stay in the palace for the time being. Wait for the emperor to wake up, and then make a decision. An Ronghua's words couldn't bring up the slightest emotion.

Xia Huaijin couldn't bear to leave Gu Nu alone, but she couldn't persuade her. He left the palace, and it was cold in the dead of night.

An Ronghua's whole body was entangled in exhaustion, but she persevered with the last bit of sobriety, and finally waited until Xia Bingwen came to his senses.

"Bingwen, you're finally awake!"

"Gu Nu, why are you?" Xia Bingwen suddenly heard the call of the queen mother in a dream.

"I've always been there for you, and I don't dare to walk away. An Ronghua was full of tears.

"How long have I been lying down, what about Su Liqing?" Xia Bingwen was speechless.

"Who is Su Liqing?" asked An Ronghua.

"That's it, Gu Nanxi, ......"

"She's ......"

An Ronghua figured out Su Liqing and her motives, and the top priority was to let Xia Bingwen rest at ease without any other thoughts.

"Arrested and sent to the prison, you don't need to worry about these things now, as long as you take care of your body, I will call the imperial doctor immediately." ”

An Ronghua immediately called Imperial Doctor Zhang to enter to see Xia Bingwen, who woke up.

"The emperor's pulse has recovered steadily, but he is still weak, the imperial hospital will continue to adjust the prescription for the emperor, the emperor must remember not to work and not to think too much, but to stay in bed until the wound heals. Imperial Doctor Zhang said.

An Ronghua finally let go of her distraction, but Xia Bingwen's assassination was a major event, she had to personally intervene in the trial and investigation, the daughter of the criminal minister, she would not spare the crime.

An Ronghua instructed the imperial doctor to guard Xia Bingwen, she excused herself to rest for a while, but she took Xia Bingwen's token, wore a black cloak, and left the palace overnight.

On the dark street, An Ronghua walked through the streets and alleys, came to a private mansion, and knocked on the door with three short and one long knocking code.

After a while, a woman about thirty or forty years old opened the door, and when she didn't see An Ronghua's face, she asked, "Who are you?"

"It's me. An Ronghua took off his cloak and hat.

In the dim light, the woman was very surprised by An Ronghua's appearance.

When the two entered the house, An Ronghua's appearance was unobstructed under the bright lights. The woman still couldn't believe her eyes.

"Are you really, Queen Mother?"

"It's the mourning family, the knowing. ”

An Ronghua wrote a letter to Qiu Zhiyi before the post-election ceremony, asking her to return to the imperial capital mansion to wait for the news, and mentioned in the letter that she had become younger.

But Qiu Gu couldn't have imagined that the young man mentioned in An Rong Huaxin was so incredible. But only the Queen Mother, who exchanged letters, knew about this mansion and knew the code to knock on the door. No matter how unbelievable it is, Qiu Gu also believes in her master.

"Bingwen was assassinated in the palace. ”

"How is the emperor now?" Qiu Gu was very worried.

"There is no fear for my life. ”

"What about the assassin?"

"I've gone down to heaven. ”

"What do you mean, Queen Mother?"

"Now in this situation, the Queen Mother must come back!"

The candle flame was not extinguished all night, Qiu Gu made up and retouched An Ronghua, her skills in the past were indeed exquisite, and she could cover up the old state of the Queen Mother, but now it is not, she wants to make the eighteen-year-old An Ronghua into the forty-year-old Queen Mother.

After trying hard all night, An Ronghua changed his face, and his face already looked like he was thirty or forty years old. Looking at the mirror, An Ronghua could barely recognize the self inside, so old.

"Queen Mother, this makeup can be modified for seven or eight points, but what about your voice?"

"Zhiyi, go cook a bowl of ginger and spicy soup. An Ronghua commanded.

"The queen mother's ginger spicy soup ......," Qiu Gu worried.

"You go. An Ronghua was stubborn.

Qiu Gu obeyed the order, and a bowl of thick black ginger spicy soup was brought in, even if she smelled the smell, she couldn't stand the stimulation. An Ronghua snatched the soup bowl and drank it all after enduring the hurtful stimulation.

Pouring down the intense fiery heat immediately burned his throat, An Ronghua endured the pain and defeated his throat.

"Zhiyi, how's that?" An Ronghua's voice was immediately hoarse, as if he was twenty years old.

"Queen Mother!"

"Go back to the palace. ”

The sky was slightly bright, the palace gate guards were vigilant, and a carriage drove in, and the person who came out was Qiu Gu, showing the queen mother's token.

"The Queen Mother!"

"Humble welcome to the return of the Queen Mother!"

Xia Huaijin returned to the palace, but he was locked up all night without sleeping, neither talking about the emperor's assassination, nor explaining where the valley girl was.

In addition, Xia Huaijin was haunted by An Ronghua's performance at the time of Xia Bingwen's assassination. That kind of heartache and heart-rending is incomparable to his uncle Wang. At that time, the ability to control the situation was even more than she should have at her age.

An Ronghua will stay at Xia Bingwen's bedside for a day and a night without closing her eyes, and the feelings in her eyes are all unknown to Xia Huaijin. The kind of determination she made to let him leave, ignoring it without turning her head, seemed to make Xia Huaijin feel hollow that she had lost everything.

The sun rises in the east, and hundreds of officials make a pilgrimage, but as yesterday, the emperor said that he was sick and did not go to court.

Hundreds of officials talked about it, and the hanging curtain suddenly fell.

"The Queen Mother has arrived. ”
