Chapter 61: King Yan is injured
The melons and fruits with the rain were carried to the house, and Huang Ye's eyes lit up again, and he looked at the saliva that was about to run down.
Concubine Rou was distressed and angry, so she hurriedly asked the maid to wash it.
After a while, Lily came in with a large plate of fruits, and Huang Ye hurriedly beckoned Concubine Rou to eat together.
The three of them sat together, eating fruit and gossiping, but it meant that the years were quiet.
It was raining and getting dark quickly, and I couldn't see the road more than half of the time, and the pouring rain obscured the view, and I couldn't even see the moon doorway with the lantern hanging clearly.
Huang Ye sighed: "This kind of weather is suitable for hiding in the house to read a book or be in a daze. ”
Concubine Rou rarely nodded in agreement.
At this moment, Amber took a few maids and began to make vegetables, which was Huang Ye's favorite beef hot pot.
Concubine Rou asked casually: "Or the beef from the Pingnan Palace?" ”
Huang Ye nodded, "Who else sells beef besides Pingnan Palace?" The concubine is inconvenient to eat in the palace, so she can come out of the palace to us, and you can eat as much as you want. ”
Concubine Rou smiled, she didn't pay attention to appetite, but she was willing to cooperate with the children to mess around.
The three of them were brushing the hot pot while listening to the sound of rain outside, which was comfortable and comfortable.
A thunderclap sounded again, Huang Ye shrank his head in fright, and his chopsticks fell off.
Ji Ming frowned, "I don't know what's going on today, it's been twice." ”
Huang Ye was so frightened that he lost his appetite in an instant and just wanted to sleep.
Ji Ming also put down the dishes and chopsticks and took her to the back room.
Concubine Rou ordered someone to remove the table, and just walked around the house a few times, she saw Lu Kang running in in the heavy rain, dripping from head to toe, "Niangniang, it's not good!" Something has happened to the king! ”
Concubine Rou was stunned for a moment, and without asking what was the matter, she ordered loudly: "Quick!" Drive back to the palace! ”
Ji Ming helped Huang Ye out, knowing that it was an accident in the palace, she hurriedly asked Ji Ming to follow.
Ji Ming hesitated a little, "I'm leaving, what should you do?" ”
Huang Ye rolled his eyes, "I'm six months pregnant now, I'm not about to give birth, there are still Lu Yi and Zhong Qiong in the house, what can I do?" But you, you must protect yourself, I always feel a little uneasy. ”
"Good! Stay in the house and wait for me to come back! Ji Ming shook Huang Ye's hand, gritted his teeth and walked away with Concubine Rou.
Huang Ye continued to go back and lie down, but he couldn't sleep at all, he always felt that something would happen, so he hurriedly called Zhong Qiong, "You let Lu Yi and Lu Er go to the palace gate to take a look, answer the prince at any time, and come back immediately as soon as there is news." ”
Zhong Qiong had just been taught a lesson by Concubine Rou, and was a little hesitant, "Princess, Lu Yi and Lu Er stayed in the palace to protect you, and they can't go." ”
"I said they could go!"
Huang Ye twisted Zhong Qiong had no choice but to do it.
Concubine Rou and Ji Ming were stopped as soon as they arrived at the palace gate.
Ji Ming's expression was gloomy, "When the concubine returns to the palace, you dare to stop it?" ”
The soldier bowed his hand, "Guifei Niangniang, His Royal Highness King You, it's not that his subordinates don't let the two enter the palace, but the king orders that no one is allowed to enter or leave the palace, and his subordinates are also acting on orders, please don't blame Niangniang and His Royal Highness." ”
Concubine Rou and King You glanced at each other, and said helplessly: "Get in the carriage first, and wait a while." ”
Inside the Lingxiao Palace.
Imperial Doctor Cui and several imperial doctors took turns to treat King Yan, a basin of blood and water was brought out, and Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian, who rushed over, looked panicked, as if anxious and anxious, the two looked at each other from time to time, looked at Lingxiao Hall for a while, and looked at the palace gate for a while.
Liu De walked out, and the second concubine immediately surrounded him, "Father-in-law Liu, how is the situation on the king?" ”
Liu De stretched his neck to look at it for a while, and asked, "Guifei Niangniang?" Why didn't you come? ”
The two concubines glanced at each other and shook their heads in unison, they had forgotten to pay attention to Concubine Rou just now.
A imperial physician came out of it and said, "The noble concubine Niangniang is still in the Youwang Mansion." ”
"Youwang Mansion? How is it so just? As soon as something happened in the palace, she went to Youwang's Mansion? Concubine Xian's eyes rolled, and she spoke in a strange manner.
The imperial doctor said expressionlessly: "Today, the people from Youwangfu delivered news to Chengxi Palace, saying that Princess Youwang was pregnant, and the concubine was in a hurry, and braved the heavy rain to let Weichen go to Youwangfu to ask Princess Youwang for a pulse, and Weichen returned to the palace before he could report to the king that something happened, and the rain was too strong to delay the time for the concubine to return to the palace." ”
"Report! Gonggong Liu, the noble concubine Niangniang and His Royal Highness Youwang have arrived outside the palace. ”
Liu Deyi was overjoyed, "Quick!" Hurry up and let go! ”
Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian's faces changed.
"Gonggong Liu, the king obviously doesn't allow anyone to enter or leave the palace, how dare you disobey the yang and the yin?" Concubine Shu scolded loudly.
Liu Depi smiled and said: "Concubine Niangniang said very much, the miscellaneous family naturally does not dare to disobey the yang and the yin, everything is the king's will." ”
Concubine Shu's face turned pale, and she looked at the gate of Lingxiao Hall suddenly, "Is the king awake?" ”
Liu De smiled meaningfully and did not answer.
Ji Ming helped Concubine Rou up the steps, and saw the jealous and unwilling eyes of Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian from a distance, and the two of them ignored them and passed directly past them.
"Did you see that? She didn't even take us seriously! Concubine Shu was so angry that she was furious.
Concubine Xian's face was calm and full of vinegar, "Who made the family a concubine!" ”
Concubine Rou and Ji Ming followed Liu De into the Lingxiao Palace, and found that it was full of Praetorian Guards, three layers inside and three layers outside, and the two were stopped three meters away from the dragon bed.
King Yan was lying on the bed, his eyes closed, and there was no blood on his face.
"What's going on?" Concubine Rou frowned, full of worry.
Ji Ming also looked at Imperial Physician Cui, "Father, this is."
Doctor Cui saluted and said: "Concubine Niangniang, His Royal Highness King You, today the king went to Zhilan Palace to visit Princess Lingyue as usual, but he never thought that he was stabbed by the palace maid Yan Hong next to the princess, the other party smeared the dagger with poison, and committed suicide on the spot, Wei Chen didn't have time to find out what poison it was, so he could only use bloodletting to temporarily control the poison." ”
"So how to treat it? Can the antidote be prepared as soon as possible? Concubine Rou's tone was eager.
Imperial Doctor Cui paused and said, "Weichen will do his best, Niangniang, please rest assured." ”
Concubine Rou breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Sun Zhao, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, "Why did Princess Lingyue's maidservant assassinate the king?" ”
Sun Zhao replied: "The minister sent someone to check, the big palace maid next to Princess Lingyue was originally Yinshuang, and she was killed because of poor protection, and then Yin Guifei arranged for the palace maid to replace her, Yan Hong is one of them, and the minister also found out along this line that Yan Hong was originally just an inconspicuous little palace maid, and she was often bullied by some big palace maids and old grandmothers, and it was Yin Guifei who pulled her. Let her have a chance to get out of the sea of suffering, Concubine Yin is kind to her. ”
"Are you saying that Yan Hong's stabbing of the king is to avenge Concubine Yin?" Concubine Rou looked suspicious.
Sun Zhao glanced at her and lowered his head again, "The minister has this guess, of course it is not absolute. ”
Concubine Rou shook her head, "This palace feels wrong, Concubine Yin has been dead for a while, and Yan Hong's revenge will not be delayed until now." ”
"Niangniang, it's raining heavily tonight, and you are just out of the palace, the heavy rain can cover her and make people relax their vigilance." Sun Zhao said slowly.
