Not long after, someone came to report: "Lord Wang, Miss Lan Aya Yulan is visiting." ”

Hey? What is Sister Lan doing here? Yanxiang was slightly stunned, and got up with the master and the master and the lady and went out.

When Mei'er heard that Lan Ayayu was coming, she was a little excited, and trotted behind Yanxiang. Previously, living in the Zhongyong Palace, Lan Aya Yu was very good to her, and it was no wonder that she missed her for a long time.

Before he reached the gate of the palace, he saw Lan Ayayu. She had already walked in on her own.

Li Chourong greeted Lan Ayayu with a smile: "Ayayu, are you here to get medicine?" Why don't you let others pick it up, on such a cold day, I also ran it myself. ”

Lan Ayayu replied flatly: "Yes, Senior Li, there is only one pair of medicine left in the water vein girl's medicine, and there will be no more after today's endure." That's why I came, and I don't feel comfortable letting other people come. She added, "Besides, I just took this opportunity to learn more from you. ”

Li Chourong moved the corners of his mouth in embarrassment: "I have already prepared the medicine, but I have been busy with other things in the past few days, but I have forgotten it." I should have sent someone to send it. ”

Something happened in the house, Niu Kelian and Dongfanghong were injured, Li Chourong was busy treating the two of them, and forgot about the stubble of the water vein to send medicine.

Lan Ayayu pursed her lips, but finally didn't speak again.

At this time, Yan Xiang had already rushed over, and she saw Lan Ayayu's depressed appearance from a distance.

Lan Ayayu's complexion didn't look good, and she looked worried.

Yanxiang couldn't help but be secretly moved, Sister Lan must be worried about her safety, so she looked like she wanted to speak and stop worrying. She even thought that Lan Aya Yu probably wanted to ask Master Shi Niang about her whereabouts, but it was difficult to ask.

Haha, Sister Lan saw that she hadn't returned to Dali Temple for so many days, shouldn't she think she was eaten by wolves?

However, she felt that this was her fault, and since she was in the Happy Palace, she should have informed Sister Lan and them, so as not to worry them.

"Sister Lan!" Yanxiang saw Lan Aya Yu and said hello loudly.

Lan Ayayu raised her eyes and saw Yanxiang and Dongfang Hong, and suddenly woke up: "Yanxiang, it turns out that you are here." I thought something had happened to the two of you. ”

Her tone was very flat, and there was no surprise in her tone.

Yanxiang thought that Lan Ayayu's frowning was because she was worried about her. However, after Lan Aya Yu saw her and Dongfang Hong, she was not happy at all, but looked like she wanted to speak and stopped.

She couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, with a sense of foreboding in her heart, and her intuition told her that something big was about to happen.

Li Chourong also saw that Lan Ayayu's face was wrong, and asked worriedly: "What's wrong, Ayayu?" Is it an aggravation of the water vein? "Aside from this, she can't think of anything that makes Lan Ayayu so distracted?

'Is it that the water veins are getting worse?' This question lifted everyone's hearts, and they all looked at Lan Ayayu.

Lan Aya Yu shook her head slightly: "No! Shuimai drank the medicine on time, and his physical condition has improved. ”

Li Chou let them breathe a sigh of relief.

There was a moment of silence around, and after a moment, Mer opened her mouth to break the silence.

"Miss Lan, you've lost weight."

At first, Mei'er was very happy to see Lan Ayayu, but when she saw Lan Ayayu's sad expression, she couldn't help but feel nervous. She timidly walked up to Yanxiang and whispered to Lan Ayayu.

This sound of 'losing weight' made everyone feel sad, and the originally colorful mood suddenly turned dark gray. Not only Lan Ayayu, but also Shui Wei and the others have been restless for a while.

If the case is not concluded for a day, everyone will not be at ease for a day.

Mei'er said hello, and Lan Ayayu noticed Mei'er's existence. Just after Mei'er stood behind Smoke Incense, she was blocked. Or maybe Lan Aya Yu had something on her mind and didn't notice Mei'er's presence.

"Mei'er, long time no see."

Lan Ayayu had a feeling of forced laughter, and the smoke could tell that Lan Ayayu was hiding something in her heart. She went straight to the point: "Sister Lan, what's going on?" ”

Lan Ayayu's cheeks clenched, and then she said in a muffled voice, "Something happened." ”

This sound of 'something happened' stirred up everyone's hearts and became uneasy and panicked.

Lan Ayayu sighed and said.

When they heard the people's public opinion from Lan Ayayu's mouth, they were even more disturbed. Because Mei'er's retelling has some personal feelings, Lan Ayayu's retelling is more objective.

The public opinion of the people that came out of Lan Ayayu's mouth was much more serious than what Mei'er said.

After all, what Mei'er said was from Chu Tiankuo's position and accused the people of spreading rumors. And what Lan Ayayu said was the subjective thoughts of the people.

Now that the situation has escalated seriously, most of the people are subjectively judged, Chu Tiankuo is guilty, and Xiangye is innocent.

These are consistent with Dongfang Hong's worries, and he realized this when he heard Mei'er say it before. Don't be afraid of others spreading rumors, rumors stop at the wise. The point is that if the people think so in their hearts, then I'm afraid they will be in trouble.

Lan Ayayu said that in the past few days, a large number of people have gone to the gate of Dali Temple to protest, demanding that the trial be heard quickly and the case will be closed. In order to maintain justice, Dali Siqing should be punished for Chu Tiankuo's crimes in accordance with the law.

After listening to Lan Ayayu's words, they were all flustered, no wonder Lan Ayayu had a sad look. Lan Aya Yu didn't say that it was okay, but as soon as she finished speaking, her emotions seemed to be contagious, and everyone's faces were clouded.

Chu Aofei and Li Chourong began to be a little worried, they didn't realize that things would become so serious at all. Now, the people are just making trouble in front of Dali Temple, and the situation is barely under control.

What if the situation escalates further, and the people make trouble in the imperial city and in front of the palace gate? How good is that?

Smoke was a little flustered and more angry. She was angry and yelled, "This must have been done by Xiangye." I'm going to go to the palace to find the emperor, and I'm going to tell the emperor about it. ”

Dongfang Hong heard her shouting in excitement, and hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand. He deliberately lowered his voice: "Smoke, don't be impulsive." Now at the critical moment, don't make any more trouble, get caught. ”

The smoke darkened his face and forcefully broke Dongfang Hong's hand. She is sober now, and she is by no means foolish. She was serious, she really wanted to go to the palace to find the emperor. It was the emperor himself who told her that there was a new situation in the case and that he would report to him at any time.

Her hand subconsciously touched it into her arms, and she quickly reacted that the token was taken away by Sister Lu and was not on her.

Without the token, she had no choice but to give up.

Lan Aya Yu was stunned and asked, "Senior Chu, what should you do about this?" ”

Chu Aofei sighed slightly, and said very seriously: "Let me think of a way again." ”

He didn't take it seriously, but now he takes it seriously. In such a hurry, what good idea could he come up with?

Li Chourong has countless doctors, and he has seen too much life and death, and he has long been light-hearted. She was very calm, and she knew what was going on. She can't influence the public opinion of the people, she can only do what she can.

Looking at Lan Ayayu's anxious appearance, Li Chourong ordered in order to distract her: "Ayayu, you come with me." In the past few days, I have refined the heart medicine, which should be of great benefit to the recovery of the water vein body. You come with me, and I'll tell you the recipe. “

Lan Ayayu shook her head and changed her words: "Senior Li, I'd better take the medicine directly." Now, it's so messy out there, I'm really in no mood to study a prescription. ”

That's true. At this time, her mind was full of thoughts about the radical remarks of the people and how to solve the matter.

Dongfang Hong hadn't gone out to inquire about the situation yet, but he already had a general understanding of the situation outside from Mei'er and Lan Ayayu's mouths.

Especially Lan Ayayu's reaction, judging from the situation outside, the situation is serious.

Dongfanghong took the initiative to offer: "Miss Lan, I'll accompany you back to Dali Temple in a while." ”

Smoke Xiang looked serious, and immediately connected: "I'm going too!" ”

This time, she really didn't go to join in the fun, she really wanted to see the situation.

With Dongfanghong's understanding of cigarettes, let her go, it is estimated that within three words, she will be emotional and quarrel with people. In order to avoid complications, he did not agree to let the cigarettes go. It's just that he's a little hard to speak. It's hard for him to turn her down now.

He struggled with how to reject her.

With an idea, Dongfang Hong changed the topic and said, "Yanxiang, you can stay in the Happy Palace." Wait for Niu Kelian to wake up so that he can ask him some questions. ”

Dongfang Hong's words reminded Yanxiang, and Yanxiang felt that Dongfanghong was right. For her, Niu Kelian wakes up and interrogates him about the inside story of some things, which is also a very challenging and interesting thing.

Guarding Niu Kelian to wake up and ask him something, or go outside to see what the people say, both things are full of temptation for Yanxiang.

Now, it was Dongfanghong's entanglement, and it was transferred to Yanxiang. She couldn't make up her mind.

Without waiting for Yanxiang to make a decision, Chu Aofei had already made an idea for Yanxiang: "Yanxiang, you just stay in the palace, and when Niu Kelian wakes up, it's not too late to leave." ”

Smoke Xiang nodded reluctantly.

Hearing that Chu Aofei and Dongfang Hong kept mentioning Niu Kelian, Lan Ayayu asked curiously: "Isn't Niu Kelian a subordinate of Xiangye?" ”

In the first year of Xingde, Hong Gaode proclaimed himself emperor, established the Great Western Kingdom, and set the capital of Fengcheng. In the early days of the establishment of the regime, the surrounding countries were eyeing the Great Western Kingdom and provoked wars for no reason. Before the expedition, Xu Guifei, the mother of Xigong, was 8 months pregnant. The emperor proposed an edict, if the prince was born, he would be named Hong Chengye, and the prince would be established, and if he was born a princess, he would be crowned Princess Changyu.

After Emperor Hong left the palace, Queen Xia made a plan to let Xu Guifei slip the fetus, who knows, the sky did not fulfill her wish, and the fetus in Xu Guifei's womb was born, and it actually survived.

"Your Majesty has already doted on Concubine Xu, and now, she has given birth to a prince again, and I see that our master and queen throne will not be able to be kept."

"Isn't it? Listening to the palace maid in the West Palace, the prince was born white and fat, very cute, his face resembled His Majesty, there was a righteousness between his eyebrows, and he must be a good emperor when he grows up. ”

This is the little palace maid in the queen's palace whispering in private.

Even if they don't talk about it, the Empress Xia knows that if she doesn't try to get rid of the prince, I'm afraid that life won't be better in the future.

She immediately summoned her elder brother Xiangye and Chu Xiang, the head of the imperial guard, to discuss countermeasures. They plotted to burn down the West Palace, which was carried out by General Chu.

At the critical moment, General Chu gave up the idea of harming the prince and exchanged his own son for the prince's exit from the palace.

Xu Guifei cried and cried, turned her heart sideways, picked up the hairpin, and used the tip of the hairpin to tattoo the word "heaven" on the prince's left shoulder. The stab is in the child's body, the pain is in the mother's heart, and after the stabbing is finished, Xu Guifei's painful liver and intestines are broken. She trembled and hung a jade pendant on the crown prince, which was given by the emperor himself, and there is only one in the world today.

Concubine Xu Guifei kowtowed to Chu Xiang, and said with tears in her eyes, "General Chu, please accept my three bows, your great kindness and great virtue, this palace will repay it in the next life." ”

"Niangniang, you can't help it, please get up ...... quickly" As he spoke, he heard footsteps outside, General Chu picked up the prince and hurriedly fled through the side door.

Xu Guifei fainted.

The person who came was the imperial doctor Feng Nanyang. Legend has it that this person was originally a man in the rivers and lakes, and his nickname was the fortune teller. He can pinch and calculate, not only has excellent medical skills, but also has extraordinary martial arts. He took away General Chu's son, performed light skills, shuttled freely in the palace, easily got rid of the pursuit of the palace guards, and left the city safely.

After Xia, he ordered people to burn down the West Palace, and Xu Guifei and a cadre were buried in the fire. During the inventory of the body, it was found that the body of a baby was missing. Plus General Chu Xiang's whereabouts are unknown. Empress Xia and Xiangye concluded that the prince was most likely taken away by Chu Xiang. So, Empress Xia secretly sent people to hunt down and kill General Chu Xiang.

In the fourth year of Xingde, the emperor returned triumphantly.

Xia Hou was shrewd and capable, and kept this matter a secret. Emperor Hong didn't believe that Xu Guifei really died in an accident. He often dreamed of the crown prince, and he has been sending people to investigate the matter secretly, but he has not been able to find out the truth, Chu Xiang disappeared, and Feng Nanyang also disappeared.

In the fifth year of Xingde, the queen gave birth to a son, and Emperor Hong named him Hong Cheng'an. The queen thought to herself, the emperor obviously did not have high hopes for this son. Empress Xia thought to herself, even if the emperor delayed issuing an edict and appointing a new crown prince, Emperor Rihong would die, and the throne would be her son's sooner or later. However, she still had some concerns, twenty-four years ago, she sent someone to hunt down and kill Chu Xiang, Chu Xiang was seriously injured and died, but the prince did not know who rescued him.

For more than 20 years, there has been no news of the prince. If the crown prince is still alive, then he will be the biggest threat to Hong Chengan's succession to the throne. Besides, once this matter is revealed, she and Xiangye will definitely be in trouble.

Emperor Hong Gaode reigned for 24 years, he worked hard, knew people well, the country was strong, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. Emperor Hong grew old and missed his lost prince more and more, and finally fell ill.

Knowing that Emperor Hong was ill, Feng Nanyang sneaked into the palace to see the emperor.

"Bold Feng Nanyang, you are guilty, you have been hiding for more than 20 years, and I have been sending people to look for you and General Chu for more than 20 years. Do you know about Concubine Xu? Emperor Hong cried with joy when he saw him.

"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty. When the queen wanted to burn down the West Palace, the minister arrived after learning about it, and the minister came one step late, and the prince had been taken away by General Chu. In a panic, Zhongchen rescued General Chu's son and handed him over to a foreign master to raise. For the past 24 years, I have been secretly searching for the whereabouts of the prince, but I have never found it. The ministers have the great trust of the emperor. Feng Nanyang was full of guilt.

"What a queen. Over the years, I have seen her keep to herself and teach the emperor carefully, but I never thought that she would be so vicious. I'm going to send her to the cold! Emperor Hong gritted his teeth angrily and slapped the imperial case.

"Your Majesty, you can't do it. There is no evidence, if the emperor does this, it will definitely cause turmoil in the court and panic among the people. Feng Nanyang persuaded.
