Chapter 242: Bad news came

Fu Luoxiang said with a serious face:

"The eleventh brother is as bold and fearless as his father, brave and resourceful. The eleventh brother has endured a lot of hardships in the past, and it is the hardest and most difficult of all our brothers and sisters. But even so, he never killed innocents indiscriminately, and always treated the people with kindness."

"Before, he went to Bocang Erzhou as an envoy to the two prefectures of Bocang, risked his life, and made drastic moves to remove the cancer for the people of Bozhou. Later, for the sake of the seventh sister's life, he confronted those old stubborn people in the court."

"Now, knowing that the battlefield is dangerous, he still chooses to drive on behalf of his father without hesitation. can put his life and death aside and devote himself to the country and the people, such a good man is naturally the best gentleman in the world."

Fu Luoxiang said it with great vigour, but when he heard it, he frowned.

"It turns out that this is the reason why Xinglan is dead set on him......

Fu Luoxiang froze instantly.

She sank down, lowered her eyebrows and said slowly:

"Not only that, but the eleventh brother is no less attentive to Lan'er than you. Before he set out on the expedition, he deliberately looked for the seventh sister, me, the fifth sister-in-law, Mrs. Ye, and even Mrs. Zhang. Do you know what he told us?"

"He begged us to take good care of Lan'er while he was away. If the news of his martyrdom comes from the front line, he must hide it from Lan'er. Hide it for as long as you can, and don't let her do anything stupid."

"He said that it doesn't matter if he dies, but Lan'er wants to live well...... I still remember his red-eyed and sincere eyes."

Wen Renzhuo said a little dejectedly, "Obviously, you asked me to do my best to snatch her over, and now you are telling me this, what should I do?"

"When did I let you snatch her?"

"That's when I went to look for you that night......

Speaking of this, Wen Ren came back to his senses and shut up in time.

But Fu Luoxiang had already guessed something.

Her cheeks flushed, and she hurriedly said, "I'm sorry."

"Huh?" Someone looked at her with a puzzled eyebrow, "Why did you say you're sorry?"

"I know I was rude that night, and if you hate me, I'll just hide from you when I see you in the future."

Fu Luoxiang said it in a hurry, but unconsciously there was a trace of crying.

Hearing this, people were anxious, "Don't cry, I took advantage of you in this matter, why are you wrong?"

"Can ......"

"You're drunk and out of shape, and you're not a ruffian trying to belittle me. Besides, I'm a man, and when I was kissed, I didn't have much to lose. But you are a daughter's family, if people know about it in the future, won't it damage your reputation? So you don't have to apologize to me anyway."

Wen Renzhuo's tone is slow, and his clear voice has a feeling that can heal the soul.

Fu Luoxiang turned his face with red eyes, "But the person you love is Lan'er, and by doing this, I will tarnish your feelings for her."

"No, no, no, don't cry, don't cry."

Seeing that she was about to cry, she was even more anxious.

"Don't you think that by kissing me, you have tarnished my feelings for Xinglan? Well, I won't owe anything when I come back."

After speaking, Wen Renzhuo did not hesitate to hold the ground with one hand, and the other hand held her shoulder and kissed her red lips.

The lips collided, and Fu Luoxiang's pupils shook.

In just three seconds, Fu Luoxiang felt as long as a year.

"Okay, now you don't owe me, you won't cry anymore."

Wen Renzhuo let go of Fu Luoxiang, but found that Fu Luoxiang seemed to have been caught in the acupoint.

"You...... What's wrong with you?"

Fu Luoxiang shook his head dumbfounded, "You and I are clear."

She hurriedly got up and ran out, her mind blank, and she didn't even hear what someone said.

Wen Renzhuo, who was left alone in the back kitchen, looked innocent, "Did I do something wrong?"

Fu Luoxiang didn't know how long he had been running, until he was tired and his legs were weak, so he found a stone to sit on

down.

At this moment, all she had in her mind was the scene when she kissed her.

The last time she was drunk, she didn't feel anything.

But this time, she really felt his lips.

A complex emotion surrounded her brain.

She closed her eyes tightly, forcing herself to calm down.

At this moment, a hand tugged at her sleeve.

She woke up suddenly, and the sweet girl in front of her was staring at her anxiously.

"Sweet?"

"Oh, Tenth Princess, you can be considered awake, what's wrong with you?"

"I...... I'm fine, why are you here?"

"There is news from the palace that His Majesty is seriously ill and dying."

"What!"

In the Zichen Palace, Emperor Jing was lying on the dragon couch with his last breath.

Bai Rongyue's gaze was slightly sluggish, "Your Majesty, the children have arrived, you can open your eyes and take a look."

Hearing this, Emperor Jing moved his eyelids, and it took a lot of effort to open his eyes.

He glanced weakly and weakly, and asked with a quick breath, "Lin...... Where's Lin'er?"

"Lin'er, he went on an expedition, have you forgotten, Your Majesty?"

"Expedition...... Is the world going to be chaotic again?"

Emperor Jing was in a daze, looking like he didn't remember something.

Fu Rinxu cried and asked, "Queen Mother, didn't my father see the emperor a few days ago? I also took the medicine prescribed by Imperial Doctor Gu, why did I suddenly ......?"

"Last night, His Majesty suddenly said that he wanted to eat chestnut cake, and after eating it, he ......."

Bai Rongyue cried as she spoke.

At this time, Emperor Jing seemed to have come to his senses again, holding Bai Rongyue's hand and saying affectionately, "Rongyue...... Don't cry...... You know, I'm most afraid of you crying."

A group of sons and daughters-in-law kneeling underground, daughters and sons-in-law also cried so well that they were not sad.

Because Zhan Xinglan was pregnant, she just stood aside and did not kneel.

As soon as Emperor Jing raised his eyes and saw Zhan Xinglan, he said, "Xinglan girl, hurry up and coax your mother, don't let her cry and hurt her eyes."

"Father's ......"

"Why are you crying, if you cry, Lin'er should be sad."

Emperor Jing said weakly, and a tear slipped from the corner of his eye and flowed into his sideburns.

"You all go out, I have something to say to Rongyue and ...... Talk to the starry girl."

The crowd looked at each other, and after receiving the hint from Rongyue's eyes, they retreated.

Only the emperor and queen and Zhan Xinglan were left in the Zichen Palace.

Half an hour later, Zhan Xinglan's eyes were swollen from crying, and he walked out with a holy decree.

The door of the temple closed, and Bai Rongyue's cry came from inside.

"Lan'er! Father, he ......."

Fu Yuexin cried and grabbed Zhan Xinglan's arm.

Zhan Xinglan didn't speak, just silently closed his eyes, and two lines of tears flowed down the tear stains on his face.

She didn't need to say anything more in such a reaction.

But just as they were about to kneel down and cry, Zhan Xinglan shouted, "Can't kneel!"

"Brother Eleven, what do you say?"

Fu Rinxu asked.

In the incomprehensible and even angry eyes of everyone, Zhan Xinglan said slowly and loudly:

"Father's dictation, secret will not mourn. Now that the cold is suffering from internal and external troubles, if people know that their father has died, the cold will definitely be full of holes and the lives will be ruined."

After listening to what Zhan Xinglan said, everyone knew that they had misunderstood her.

Zhan Xinglan handed over the holy decree in his hand to Kou Huai and said solemnly:

"Father-in-law Kou, you have followed your father for decades, and you are the most loyal. I beg you to keep this decree on your behalf, and when the news of your father's death cannot be concealed, you will take it out and read it."

After finishing speaking, Zhan Xinglan threw up her dress and was about to kneel.

"This holy decree is very important, Xinglan is here to thank Gonggong Kou!"

"Lady Crown Princess

Mother! Hurry up! The old slave can't bear such a great gift from you, don't worry, the old slave will keep this holy decree even if he dies!"

Kou Huai half-supported Zhan Xinglan, his old face was covered with furrows, and he looked as if he had aged more than ten years overnight.

Zhan Xinglan thanked him, and then bowed to everyone.

"Now that my father has died, and the prince is fighting outside, it depends on us whether the cold country can survive this hurdle!"

Zhan Xinglan warned all those who knew tonight that they were not allowed to say a word.

But there is no impermeable wall in the world, and the news of Emperor Jing's death soon reached Ke Jingfeng's ears.

"Hahaha-yes, good death!"

"Thanks to Ke Xianggong for killing His Majesty with a horse pistol, otherwise Your Majesty is afraid that he will really be cured by that Gu Yin."

Ke Jingfeng was tired of laughing, and then he lazily leaned on the table and said:

"That poison is the most taboo to repeat, I thought I would have to give him a few more pills, but this one time was enough to kill him."

"Your Majesty has died, and the Duke of Ming is fighting outside, and this long-cherished cold country is all in the hands of the Xianggong."

"Don't be too happy, the queen and the crown princess are still here, and neither woman is a fuel-efficient lamp. But we don't need to deal with them......

Ke Jingfeng's eyes burned, and the sinister smile on his face outlined the wrinkles more clearly.

The people of the world did not know the news that Emperor Jing had died, let alone the danger that was coming.

Wen Renzhuo originally wanted to close the Xingxiang Pavilion so that he could take care of Zhan Xinglan wholeheartedly.

But Zhan Xinglan was afraid that this move would be eye-catching and arouse suspicion, but it would cause extraneous branches.

I had no choice but to give up.

On this day, Zhan Xinglan touched his bulging lower abdomen and walked in the garden with Qiu Chuyan.

The autumn breeze is bleak, and there are not many flowers left in the garden.

"Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left Beijing, several of us have taken turns to take care of you, and it's been almost four months, and I haven't seen you smile."

Qiu Chuyan took Zhan Xinglan's arm and looked at her sad face worriedly.

Zhan Xinglan sighed when he heard this.

"It's been four months and there has been no news from the front. I don't know if my father and brother and Xuanlin are safe......

"It will take a month just to march and fight, and the mountains and rivers of Longyou Road are full of mountains and rivers, and the terrain is complicated, so maybe the news of their victory in the war is on the way back to the capital."

"Chu Yan, you don't know, I can always dream that Xuanlin appeared in front of me covered in blood these days, and whenever I want to grab his hand, I will wake up from my dream."

"Xinglan, you've just endured too many things in a row, and the pressure is too great to be like this. Believe me, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has his own heavenly appearance, and he will be fine."

"Really?"

Zhan Xinglan asked hopefully.

Qiu Chuyan smiled and held Zhan Xinglan's hand to give her strength.

"Of course, you've been through so many ups and downs together, haven't you all survived? What's more, we will all accompany you through this level."

Zhan Xinglan nodded heavily.

But as soon as she perked up a little, she saw Zhu Huan running over in a hurry.

"Princess, something happened......

"Is there news from the front?" Zhan Xinglan asked anxiously.

"No, it's not the front line, it's Ling Yu Pavilion!"
