However, it is said that in order to regain the favor of King Wu, Nalan Ji used his man-made rumors to push the boat down the river, trying to drive the Beiliang clan away from King Wu, so she discussed strategies with Mrs. Cai.

On the third watch of the night, a waiter hurriedly ran to the Wenyuan Palace. King Wu was dealing with government affairs, and his face was gloomy, so he said angrily:

"What's the hurry?!"

The servant panted and said intermittently:

"Lan ...... Orchid ...... Dizzy...... Fainted......"

King Wu was stunned, the bamboo slip in his hand fell on the case, and he stepped forward in a panic, saying:

"Quick...... Quick! Take the widow to see it!"

The attendant led King Wu to the cloak hall, and saw Lan Ji lying on the bed, and the two palace maids accompanied by the bed.

King Wu sat down on the edge of the bed, touched Lan Ji's forehead, his eyes flashed with fire, and scolded:

"What did you guys do, why did Lan Ji faint?"

"Slave...... Damn it!"

"If Lan Ji has any three longs and two shorts, the widow will ask you!"

King Wu asked again:

"Have you invited a doctor?"

"I'm going to call the Imperial Doctor, and I'm going to come right away!"

King Wu was anxious, and couldn't help but think of Bei Liang Rong: Rong'er fainted after being frightened last time, could it be that this time what kind of white fox is doing trouble?

"Where has Lan Ji been these days?"

"Back to the king, I went to Mrs. Beiliang just now, and when I came back, I fainted. ”

King Wu became more and more surprised: fainting, Beiliang Rong, these two words have been haunting his heart. He tried to connect them, did this confirm the rumors of the people? He did not dare to continue thinking about it. A series of recent events have taught him enough to worry him, the war in the border town, the rumors about Bei Liang Rong, and now Lan Ji has fainted again...... It's just disturbing!

After a while, the imperial doctor arrived, and after checking Lan Ji's pulse, he said to King Wu:

"Don't worry, the king doesn't have to worry about it, Lan Ji is fine, but he is tired, and the minister prescribes him a deputy tranquilizer, and he will be fine if he takes it. ”

King Wu's nervous expression gradually eased, and he ordered the palace maid to hurry up and boil the medicine.

......

After King Wu fed Lan Ji the medicine, Lan Ji slowly opened her eyes, and a pair of anxious eyes appeared in front of her, the bags under her eyes were light black, and she blinked her eyelids from time to time, obviously a little sleepy, and the beard on her jaw was densely like a weed that had just grown.

"Are you better?" King Wu asked, holding Lan Ji's hand, with concern.

Lan Ji nodded, a smile on her lips.

"What's the matter, why did you faint for no reason? Do you know how anxious the widow is?"

Lan Ji turned her face away, not looking at King Wu, only hearing a sobbing sound.

"What's wrong?"

Lan Ji still didn't want to look back.

"What's the matter, who bullied you?

Lan Ji turned her head and looked pitiful, looked at King Wu with teary eyes, and cried and said:

"Slave family...... The slave family is afraid of ......"

King Wu looked puzzled, but still comforted:

"Don't be afraid, the widow is here, don't worry!"

"The slave family is afraid of Mrs. Beiliang......"

"Rong'er, what are you afraid of her doing?" King Wu suddenly remembered the rumor, and said, "You mean that rumor! Those people are all nonsense, and the widow has already sent someone to investigate," King Wu gritted his teeth, "It must be severely punished!"

"No...... No, just now the slave family saw the white fox in the warm jade hall! When he came back, he broke out in a cold sweat and fainted. ”

Lan Ji looked aggrieved, as if the white fox had bitten her.

"Warm Jade Palace?Rong'er's dormitory?"

"Uh-huh—"

King Wu was a little suspicious and continued to ask:

"Who else is there?"

Lan Ji hurriedly replied:

"There are also two palace maids of the slave family. ”

King Wu looked at the two palace maids beside him, and the two palace maids nodded.

How could there be a white fox in Rong'er? Could it be that she was really the incarnation of a fox demon as the folk rumors had rumored? Impossible, this was absolutely impossible! But what was the matter with the white fox that Lan Ji was talking about? Is it true or false?

King Wu didn't have a clue, his mind was scattered, like a tangled hemp.

King Wu decided to go to the Nuan Yu Hall to personally ask Bei Liang Rong.

"You have a good rest first!" and instructed the palace maid beside him, "You are so good to serve the lady, tell the widow immediately if there is anything!"

"No!"

In the warm jade hall, the lights were dim, and several palace maids came to change shifts.

"I heard that Lan Ji in the east has fainted, do you know?" said a palace maid who had changed shifts quietly to the person beside her.

The palace maid was suspicious:

"What you said is true? Lan Ji came to our lady just now, why did she faint when she went back? It's strange!"

The palace maid who changed shifts also felt strange, so she said disdainfully:

"Who knows! This Lan Ji must be playing some tricks again. ”

Another palace maid also chimed in:

"Yes, I also think that since our lady entered the palace, the king has always come to the Nuan Yu Palace, and rarely goes to the Cloak Hall again, this Lan Ji must feel that she was left out, so she pretended to be sick to ask the king to care. ”

......

The two chattered, but they didn't realize that King Wu had arrived in front of the palace.

"What are you doing here?" shouted one of the attendants.

The two palace maids came back to their senses, and when they saw that it was King Wu who came, they immediately knelt down in a panic and said timidly:

"See the King!"

At this time, King Wu's mind was disorganized, and he was anxious to find out what was going on with the Beiliang family, and he didn't have time to investigate the dereliction of duty of the palace maids, so he said:

"Is Lady Beiliang here, take the widow to meet her!"

"Back to the king, the lady has already slept. The maid replied weakly.

King Wu was an anxious man, and immediately ordered the two palace maids to go in and wake up the Beiliang clan and come to meet him.

"Go in and call the lady up, and say that the widow has something to look for her!"

There was a hint of anger in his tone, as if it could burn and explode at any moment.

The two stood up, hurriedly entered the Warm Jade Palace, arrived at the bedroom of the Beiliang clan, approached the edge of the bed, and called:

"Madame—Madame—"

Bei Liangrong did not fall asleep. The recent rumours have been like rolling waves, pushing themselves to the forefront, and I haven't had a good night's sleep for several nights. She lay on the bed and said that she was asleep, but in fact, only she knew. Sometimes, she really wants to talk to Zixia, but she can't bear to disturb her, after all, she is dealing with all the trivial matters she usually has, and she is tired enough. Loneliness filled her entire body and soul, and for Bei Liangrong, remorse slowly crawled on her body, like a ** tide flooding the beach, and then gradually receding, smoothing out all kinds of traces on the beach. This is how she finds solace in remorse.

Bei Liangrong could hear that the voice calling "Madame" was urgent, so she replied:

"What's wrong?"

She didn't turn her head away, just slowly opened her eyes and waited quietly for an answer.

"King Wu is here!"

Bei Liang Rong's heartbeat suddenly accelerated several times, and she had an ominous premonition, as if the rumors were about to be "confirmed", and she was about to go to the execution table.

"Didn't you tell the king that I was asleep?"

Bei Liang Rong knew that she had to see King Wu tonight, but she still said so.

"The slave said, but the king ......"

"Okay, you tell the king to wait in the main hall, and say I'll come now!"

Bei Liang Rong ordered the maid of the first palace to stay and help her dress and dress, and then walked out of the dormitory and came to the main hall.

"See the King!"

"Excuse me!" King Wu looked a little impatient, and said, "Lan Ji came to you just now, right?"

Bei Liangrong nodded, feeling that there was something in the words, and added another sentence:

"What's wrong?"

"Lan Ji fainted!" King Wu turned his eyes away, he didn't want to see a look he didn't want to see in Bei Liang Rong's eyes.

"How can this be?" Bei Liangrong asked with concern, "It was okay here just now!"

"That's right, the widow should ask you!" King Wu said angrily.

Bei Liang Rong was stunned: Why can the king doubt himself?

"Ask the slave family, what's wrong with the slave family?" asked Bei Liang Rong.

Seeing that Bei Liang Rong did not apologize in the slightest, King Wu said angrily:

"Do you want to keep it hidden?"

Bei Liang Rong became more and more surprised, and replied:

"Hide, hide, hide, what's there to hide?"

"Lan Ji said I saw the white fox here! She fainted when she got back. ”

"White fox, where did the white fox come from? Why didn't I see it, but she did!"

King Wu still asked:

"You ask her," King Wu pointed to a palace maid and said, "You say, have you seen the white fox in the Warm Jade Palace?"

The palace maid trembled with her legs and feet, and replied with a trembling voice:

"I saw ......"

Bei Liang Rong was speechless.

She didn't expect that King Wu would be blinded by Lan Ji's one-sided words, and humiliate herself like this in front of everyone. Her heart instantly fell to the ground like a ceramic jar, shattering to the ground.

King Wu stared at Bei Liang Rong, those normally watery eyes suddenly swollen like a peach, but from it he seemed to realize that those eyes were confiding in him, pitiful, innocent, or resentful?

King Wu was silent, and only the sound of Bei Liang Rong sobbing remained in the hall.

......

The next day, in the cloak hall.

"Madam, the Beiliang clan was scolded by the king last night!" the maid whispered in Lan Ji's ear, looking proud.

The corners of Ranki's mouth went up, revealing a sly smile.

"Got it, I'll reward you well!"

"Mrs. Xie!"

"Oh, what a Lan Ji, she acted really well last night!"

Outside the hall, Mrs. Cai's "Dao Xi" came out, and she pulled her voice out for a long time.

Lan Ji had a false alarm at first, but later recognized that it was Mrs. Cai who calmed down, and hurriedly hurried to meet him, and said with a smile:

"Where, where, it depends on your order!"

"Dial?" Mrs. Cai pushed, "Don't dare to be, I don't dare to be, I didn't dial you anything!"

"I said sister, I can breathe a sigh this time!" Lan Ji gritted her teeth and slammed out the sentence.

Mrs. Cai looked at Lan Ji with a smug look on her face, and poured a basin of cold water:

"Sister, don't be too happy too early, I don't know how the king will give an explanation!"

Lan Ji's interest suddenly decreased by half, and after thinking for a while, she pulled Mrs. Cai's clothes and said:

"Sister, sister, what should we do next?"

Mrs. Cai pondered for a moment and said:

"Let's wait!"
