Chapter 4: Princess Heqin (4)

Chu Junxi suddenly understood Su Guifei's intention of sending herself to serve the emperor, and there was no one who was alone and unaccompanied and whose lives were in danger to make better use of it.

Chu Junxi's eyes stared at Su Xueyao's beautiful face tightly, she thought of this plan at the first glance when she saw herself, no, she personally received her when she arrived in Guyu, I am afraid that she had already arranged everything before she arrived in Guyu. This woman is really far-sighted.

Su Xueyao stood up straight, the gentle smile on her face remained the same, and put away the white porcelain bottle in her hand, "When you first arrived in Guyu, the palace has not entertained you well, and tomorrow the Japanese palace will prepare a banquet for Princess Ninghe." ”

In yesterday's conversation with the emperor, Su Guifei learned that the emperor had no intention of letting her son inherit the throne, and finally decided to do it, but she didn't expect that she would use herself from Hou Yan.

agreed to Concubine Su's conditions, she could live, but if she caused trouble to Hou Yan......

A decision can change a person's fate, a decision can change the fate of a country, should I agree to Su Guifei's conditions?

The cold moonlight sprinkled through countless branches stretching out to the sky, and the ground seemed to be covered with a layer of white and soft frost. It was late at night, no one was moving, no insects were squeaking, and there was silence and coldness.

Chu Junxi sat on the front steps of the Wancheng Palace, and the fingers around his arms gradually turned white due to the exertion, until the green tendons burst out.

"Are you considering Concubine Su's proposal?"

A low and deep voice sounded from the front, Chu Junxi followed the prestige, the black-clothed man who appeared a few days ago looked at him leisurely, the shadow of the high wall covered his figure, even so, Chu Junxi could still see the light in his eyes flickering.

He has a pair of beautiful eyes, as if he can see through everything in the world, and has a calm heart, even if he talks about secrets that can change the world, he still looks leisurely.

"Did the second prince send you to monitor the movements of the palace?"

The other party raised his eyebrows, "How can you see it?" ”

"The second son seizes the throne, if you are not the eldest prince, you are naturally the second prince." Chu Junxi stood up.

The man in black walked out of the shadows, his inky black night clothes bathed in the white moonlight, not at all worried about being discovered, "I wasn't sent by the second prince. ”

Chu Jun was surprised, could it be that there was a third force that he didn't know was competing for the throne? "If I agree to Concubine Su's conditions, will you kill me?"

"Your life is yours."

Yes, your life is your own, and you have the right to choose what you want to do, but the judgment of the result is not your own, and in the end, you can only wait to be executed.

"Do you want to go in and see the emperor? Now there is no one in the inner room. ”

"Or maybe I'm here to spy on you."

"Perhaps." Ignoring the people in the courtyard, Chu Jun regretted to go back to the house.

No matter what his final decision is, since this person knows about this matter, then this matter cannot continue, otherwise there is no need to wait for Emperor Bintian himself to be in a different place.

The maids rushed in and set the breakfast on the round table in the inner room. The breakfast is full of aromas and appetizing.

Chu Junxi took the lotus seed lotus leaf porridge in her hand, and suddenly thought of something, she took off the silver hairpin on her head and put it into the porridge, the silver hairpin quickly turned black, and she was shocked, the bowl in her hand fell to the ground, and the crisp sound of porcelain breaking was particularly loud in the silent inner room, and the thick and fragrant lotus leaf porridge was scattered all over the ground.

Chu Junxi's eyes widened in horror, and his hands trembled slightly.

The emperor is taken care of by himself, if he is poisoned and dies, he will not escape the blame, at this time, Su Guifei took the opportunity to investigate the matter, and then put all the responsibility on herself, a princess of a foreign country and relatives, no one will care about her life or death, and soon she will be wiped out, and then when the second prince has not returned to the dynasty, the eldest prince successfully ascended the throne, and everything is natural.

Su Xueyao, she has already arranged everything, yesterday's invitation is just a cover, whether she agrees or not, she will carry out her own plan, she is just a pawn to help her son ascend to the throne, a very important chess piece that must die.

Raising his head stiffly, Chu Jun looked at the emperor with four eyes, one frightened and the other calm.

"Pass on the Imperial Doctor, quickly pass on the Imperial Doctor." A panicked scream came from the inner room, followed by Chu Junxi, who stumbled out of the inner room, "Go and pass the imperial doctor, the emperor, the emperor ......." ”

The Wancheng Palace, which was quiet on weekdays, boiled up instantly, looking at the figures of the maids leaving in a hurry, Chu Jun regretted not hurrying back to the inner room, dealing with the porridge and porcelain spilled on the ground, and before he could send it away, he heard a burst of eager footsteps, turned around, and Chu Jun regretted throwing all the collected things into the blue and white entwined flower pattern plum bottle on the side.

"I've got the cold." Xiu Wenhao entered the inner room, and Yuan Qingduo sat on the dragon bed with an indifferent expression.

Xiu Wenhao was slightly surprised, but was quickly shocked, and said respectfully, "Yes." ”

"Check my pulse."

There was another sound of footsteps, more powerful and eager than before, Yuan Yuheng rushed into the inner room, saw that the imperial doctor was checking the emperor's pulse, turned to Chu Junxi on the side, and grabbed the placket of her chest, "How did you take care of my father, don't think that if you are Hou Yan's princess, I won't dare to kill you, is it you, is it not you?" ”

His eyes were torn apart and his expression was furious, and the aura of anger around him surrounded him, if he didn't know the nature of this prince, Chu Junxi really had to believe that he was in love with the emperor.

"The eldest prince is angry, fortunately, he found it in time, the emperor is fine, and the eldest prince does not need to worry." Xiu Wenhao finished diagnosing the pulse.

"How can you not be in a hurry?" Yuan Yuheng suddenly turned to Xiu Wenhao, "Poisoning can be big or small, if you don't clean up the poison in time, the consequences are unimaginable, what is the current situation of my father?" ”

Xiu Wenhao was surprised, "Poisoned? The emperor only has a slight wind chill, how can the eldest prince say that he is poisoned. ”

Yuan Yuheng's face turned pale instantly, and he froze in place, "I, I'm ......"

"Heng'er." Su Xueyao walked in surrounded by maids, her expression slightly stunned, "You are an adult now, and you are still so reckless in how to do things, and you start talking nonsense when you are in a hurry." ”

Yuan Yuheng took advantage of the situation to step aside, bowed his head and said, "What the mother concubine taught me is that it was my son who was reckless. ”

Su Xueyao bowed her head lightly, "Doctor Xiu, how is the emperor's condition?" ”

"Mild cold, only a few doses of medicine can be recovered."

"Let's go down."

"Yes."

"Your Majesty, how are you feeling now? Is there anything else you feel uncomfortable with? Su Xueyao snuggled up to the dragon's bed and said softly.

Yuan Qingduo said, "I am only slightly cold, and the concubine doesn't need to worry. ”

Hush the cold and ask for warmth, the two are like ordinary husband and wife.

Chu Junxi stood aside and watched coldly, since she was born in the emperor's family, she knew that the emperor's family would never be as warm and plain as ordinary people's homes, and the palace would always be full of conspiracy, hypocrisy and blood.

The maid walked into the inner room with the decoctioned medicine, and Chu Jun naturally reached out to take it.

"Let Mei'er serve the emperor to take medicine." Su Xueyao said, "You come with this palace." ”

"Yes."

Walking past the hollow carved round table in the center of the inner room, Su Xueyao glanced at it lightly, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a faint smile.

Chu Junxi was nervous in his heart, Concubine Su must have asked about breakfast, how could she answer to save her life? The throne is undecided, and the forces of each party are not yet clear, and in this environment, the slightest mistake may lead to death without a place to be buried.

Chu Jun looked at Su Xueyao's beautiful back, this woman was fully capable of killing herself without a trace and no one doubted it.

Su Xueyao stopped at the bend of the corridor, "Does the emperor have breakfast?" ”

"Back to the concubine Niangniang, I haven't yet."

"Never?" Su Xueyao's voice rose slightly, and instantly became sharp like a knife, "The emperor's daily breakfast is arranged by the palace himself, and the menu of this table is missing lotus seed and lotus leaf porridge, can you tell me why?" "The falling sound has become charming and lazy, and it is seductive.

"Lotus Seed and Lotus Leaf Porridge ......" Chu Junxi's heart was beating wildly, and her palms covered by her sleeves were dripping with fine sweat, so as not to let Su Xueyao find out about her nervousness, she lowered her head.

"Huh?" Su Xueyao was unhurried, like a lazy cat stretching its limbs, and then stretched out its paws unexpectedly when the other party was inadvertent.

Chu Junxi just held his hand, trying to control his voice not to tremble, "The slave has never seen it." ”

"Haven't you seen it?" Su Xueyao repeated lightly, as soft as a spring breeze.
