Chapter 199: Blockade of the Imperial Palace
When introducing rouge gouache, although Dongfang Bai seemed too enthusiastic, there was no place to go beyond it.
It's just that Li Youran felt uncomfortable in his heart when he saw Dongfang Bai's slightly greasy fox face at close range, but he had been restraining himself as much as possible.
As everyone knows, this scene has become a girl's shyness in Dongfangbai's eyes, and she can't help but feel happy in her heart, and she introduces rouge gouache to Li Youran more enthusiastically.
"Dongfang Gongzi is such an excellent person, why have I never seen it before, Gongzi must not have been in the capital before, right?"
Li Youran pretended to be happy, looked at the rouge gouache that Dongfang Bai had selected for her, and then said to Dongfang Bai in a casual tone.
"It's really an honor to be praised by the county lord of Jiahe."
Dongfang Bai said as he opened the fan in his hand and continued.
"Don't hide it from the county lord of Jiahe, I really haven't been in the capital for a long time, and I have to take care of the county lord of Jiahe after that."
"That's nature."
Li Youran smiled lightly and responded.
After going back and forth, Li Youran found that Dongfang Bai was a smooth donkey and liked to hear praise from others, so he intentionally or unintentionally interjected some words praising him.
She learned from the conversation with Dongfang Bai that Dongfang Bai had always lived at the foot of Wuzhi Mountain before, and now he had not been in the capital for a long time, as for why he came to the capital, Dongfang Bai did not tell Li Youran, but this information was enough.
"Master Incompetent has been practicing in Wuzhi Mountain before, and this Dongfang Bai also came from Wuzhi Mountain......"
On the way back, Li leisurely tapped the cushion of the carriage and said to himself.
She thought to herself, her previous guesses were all right, the incompetent master was a card shown by His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince.
Although it is not clear why Dongfang Bai came to the capital, it must have nothing to do with the incompetent master and His Royal Highness the Four Princes.
In the early morning of the next day, before dawn, Li Youran dared to go to the palace in a carriage as he did yesterday.
Along the way, she was nervous, not knowing how Tang Lei's affairs were going, whether she had handed over the medicine to the county lord of Qingshui.
"County Lord, it's already here."
Unconsciously, the carriage had arrived at the gate of the palace, and Li Youran walked down from the carriage with Xiaohong's support.
She had to hurry up, because Li Youran had to rush to the East Palace before the crown princess went to greet the emperor, and went with the crown princess to greet the emperor.
In the end, the month of the crown princess is too big, if there is a mistake on the road, and then meet the reckless person of the Qingshui County Lord, I am afraid that the consequences will be unimaginable.
"If Jiahe Jingru wants to be the first to go to the emperor to say goodbye, it is better to get up early."
When Li Youran was heading towards the East Palace, he met the Lord of Qingshui who was hurrying to the main hall.
"The position of the first person is still good for the county lord of Qingshui, after all, the county lord of Qingshui is still counting on the emperor to give him a good marriage."
I saw that the Qing Shui Monarch heard Li Youran's words, and his brows furrowed slightly.
You must know that Li Youran is three years younger than her, and he has already been married by the emperor. And she was nineteen years old, nearly twenty years old.
You must know that at this age, the women of the people have already been married, if it weren't for the identity of the county lord, I am afraid that the old girl who would not be able to marry.
"Without the emperor's marriage, I would also find a good husband."
The county lord of Qingshui didn't want to bow his head in front of Li Youran, so he forcibly quibbled, and then went away after speaking.
Li Youran shrugged his shoulders, thinking to himself that if he could really get married, why hadn't he been married until today?
You know, the marriage of the county lord of Qingshui is a big joke in the circle, I heard that the county lord of Qingshui has been trying to find a good family when he was sixteen years old, but the county lord of Qingshui is arrogant and unreasonable. Even the son who has this mind has retreated because of her character.
The county lord of Qingshui dragged on until he was nearly twenty years old and did not get married, and even pestered the emperor to marry her before.
However, when the emperor mentioned this matter in the court, none of the ministers took the initiative to respond to the marriage.
Looking at the fast pace of the county lord of Qingshui, Li Youran thought that she was running away because she mentioned the most embarrassing thing in her heart, and didn't think much about it, but rushed towards the East Palace.
"Why did you come so early today, didn't you tell you that you don't have to come so early in the morning?"
The crown princess said this, but her heart was very warm, after all, the prince was too busy these days, leaving her alone. I always feel empty in my heart.
Now that my sister has come up again, she is taking care of herself everywhere, and she can't help but be very moved.
"It's the same to sleep in the carriage, it's better to come early, so that I can go with you to say hello to the emperor."
Li Youran said as he picked up a small steamed bun from the table and swallowed it in one gulp.
"Sister, let's go quickly, it's not too early."
Although Li Youran didn't want to behave like the lord of Qingshui, the crown princess was different, as the lord of the East Palace, it was better to go earlier, so as not to fall into the mouth.
"The crown princess is not good, the emperor's condition has suddenly worsened."
Just when the crown princess persuaded Li Youran to sit down and eat more, a little eunuch hurriedly ran over, and hurriedly knelt on the ground while talking and continued.
"Originally, the emperor had signs of recovery, but today he suddenly aggravated his condition and passed out, and invited the imperial doctor to come to see him."
After hearing the words of the little eunuch, the crown princess couldn't help frowning slightly, you must know that the government is now unstable, and there are battles in the north and south, if there is an accident in the emperor in this case, I am afraid that things will become more and more troublesome.
"What did the Imperial Doctor say?"
"The imperial doctor said that the emperor's symptoms are very likely to have been poisoned."
I saw that after the crown princess heard the words of the little eunuch, her brows furrowed even deeper, and Li Youran, who was standing on the side, was also slightly surprised, thinking that Qingshui County had taken the initiative?
But Tang Lei hasn't contacted her yet, and Li Youran doesn't know what happened here, but he feels that all this came too suddenly.
On the same day, the palace was directly blocked, and people in the palace were only allowed to enter but not leave.
"Lord Jiahe, Chief Feng wants to invite you to meet in front of the main hall."
After the palace is blocked, you can only stay in the East Palace, but it's okay, you can accompany the crown princess to some extent.
"Anyway, you've already packed up, so why don't you go and see you."
The crown princess saw that Li Youran was a little hesitant, so she persuaded her.
Li Youran knew that the crown princess must have misunderstood, and she and Feng Yu refused to go because of a conflict over Guo Xiaoxiao's matter, so she responded without explanation.
I haven't seen him for a few days, and Feng Yu has lost a lot of weight. Li Youran looked at Feng Yu and almost didn't recognize it.
"Feng Gongzi."
Li Youran saluted Feng Yu, and then stopped talking.
Feng Yu saw that Li Youran bowed his head and was silent, and he was also very uncomfortable in his heart, and he didn't know how to speak.
Since Guo Xiaoxiao's incident, she has never had the opportunity to see Li Youran, although she has also visited the house before, but Li Youran is not in the house.
He knew that Li Youran didn't want to see him, so he found such an excuse to excuse himself.
Feng Yu also thought about forcibly breaking in, but he was afraid that Li Youran would be angry, so he could only give up.
The palace was blocked, and manpower was tight, even though Feng Yu was now in the filial piety period, he had no choice but to hurry back.
After learning that Li Youran was also in the palace, Feng Yu always wanted to ask Li Youran out to have a good talk, after all, he was really wronged.
Guo Xiaoxiao's matter until now, he didn't figure out what was going on, although he knew that Guo Xiaoxiao had calculated him, but why did the emperor make such a holy decree? Feng Yu didn't understand this matter even if he thought about it.
"Leisurely, listen to my explanation, Guo Xiaoxiao and I really don't have anything, and there is still the matter of the emperor's marriage, I will definitely find a way to solve it. I, Feng Yu, will only marry you in this life and this life, and I will never take a concubine, let alone someone on an equal footing with you. ”
Feng Yu said all the words in his heart in one breath, and he looked at Li Youran with hot eyes.
"Feng Gongzi must have heard Uncle Guo mention these two marriages, one marriage can live in your Feng family for a hundred years, and one marriage is not good for your Feng family."
Li Youran raised his head and looked at Feng Yu.
I saw Feng Yu frown slightly after hearing Li Youran's words.
To be honest, in Feng Yu's words just now, Li Youran was not moved, but it was not a real emotion.
Li Youran knew that she and Feng Yu were impossible.
Let's not talk about the family differences between the two, just because of the ideological problem, Li Youran can't accept it.
Feng Yu seems to be affectionate and single-minded on the surface, but he is a very traditional person in his bones, everything is based on the family, and even everything he can sacrifice for the family.
But such traditional thinking is not what Li Youran likes.
Li Youran is free and easy by nature, she wants to be free, she doesn't want her husband to rank the family before her.
"How can Feng Gongzi determine that I am the one who can make the Feng family immortal for a hundred years? Maybe I'll bring disaster to the Feng family. ”
"Leisurely, don't talk nonsense."
Seeing Li Youran say this, Feng Yu hurriedly stopped.
In his heart, how could Li Youran be the one who brought disaster to the Feng family?
Although I thought so in my heart, I couldn't help but think of my grandmother who had just passed away.
Before her death, Mrs. Feng had always strongly opposed Li Youran's marriage, and it was precisely because of this that she died angrily.
Thinking of this, Feng Yu's previous firm heart began to waver a little, although it was only for a moment, but it fell into Li Youran's eyes.
She smiled slightly, sighed in her heart, and thought to herself, how can there really be a perfect man in this world, as outsiders say?
Even though Feng Yu is the best husband candidate in the hearts of thousands of girls, but for Li Youran, Feng Yu is really not a good person.
"Feng Gongzi, it's better that we don't meet first, after all, you can't make your own decisions about marriage."
After Li Youran finished speaking, he turned around and left, leaving Feng Yu standing alone in front of the main hall.
He thought repeatedly in his mind, what Li Youran said, he couldn't make his own decisions about marriage......
"Autumn Wind Dao Chief, have you ever been to see the emperor?"
You Li Youran told Qiu Feng of the doubts in his heart, and saw Qiu Feng Dao stroked his beard, looking profound, and didn't speak for a long time.
Li Youran stared at the Autumn Wind Daoist tightly, thinking that the Autumn Wind Daoist looked like he was only in his twenties, if he took off his beard, he would be a stunned young man, and it seemed that it was necessary to keep this beard.
"Now no one is allowed to approach the emperor, even the princesses and palace maids who serve the emperor must all be checked."
Just when Li Youran was staring at the Autumn Wind Dao Chief in a daze, he suddenly heard the words of the Qiu Feng Dao Chief, and couldn't help but come back to his senses in a hurry, put away his gaze, and smiled at the Qiu Feng Dao Chief very embarrassedly.
"What is the Autumn Wind Daoist going to do next?"
Li Youran saw that the Autumn Wind Daoist didn't notice what happened just now, so he returned to his normal color and said to the Autumn Wind Dao Chief.
"The most important thing at the moment is to deliberately leak the clues of the matter, let everyone search in the direction of the clues, and find out the incompetent matter of drugging the emperor."
After the Autumn Wind Daoist finished speaking, he frowned slightly, although the matter is simple, but it is not easy to do, after all, before you want to leak the clues, you have to find out the incompetent master's feet.
"Don't hide it from Daoist Qiufeng, I have some relationship with Feng Yu, the leader of the Ouchi guards, if the Daoist has any clues, you can tell Feng Yu and let Feng Yu investigate this matter thoroughly."
Li Youran regretted saying those words to Feng Yu before, you must know that you have to use Feng Yu next, how can you not say it so embarrassingly.
"It couldn't be better."
After hearing Li Youran's words, the head of the Autumn Wind Daoist thought to himself that if someone could help, it would be great.
In this way, Li Youran had to go back again to find Feng Yu with that old face.
Coincidentally, when Li Youran arrived, Feng Yu happened to take over again and returned to the front of the main hall.
After Feng Yu saw Li Youran, he hurriedly trotted all the way towards Li Youran.
All morning today, Feng Yuri was thinking about what Li Youran said.
"Leisurely, I ......"
"Feng Gongzi, I have something to ask for."
Without waiting for Feng Yu to speak, Li Youran took the lead and said.
"I don't know what happened, the palace was suddenly locked down."
Liu Zhiyuan was so anxious that he walked over like an ant on a hot pot, Tang Lei was turned his head big by him, and he really wanted to tell him what was going on behind this, but he forcibly closed his mouth.
"Don't worry so much, after all, there are so many people in the palace, and there is a lot less than you."
After Liu Zhiyuan heard Tang Lei's words, he leaned in front of Tang Lei with a nervous face and said.
"It's not the emperor who I'm nervous about, it's Youran, Youran is also locked in the palace, if someone wants to frame her, we can't help anything."
After Liu Zhiyuan finished speaking, he looked at Tang Lei expectantly and continued.
"You're so good, why don't you take a trip to the palace and see what the hell is going on."
