Qi Mengyao, this girl who has just passed her fifteenth birthday, has always been healthy and even lively, why did she faint on the dining table without warning?

Ye Ningxiang, like everyone present, was full of doubts in her heart, and even very anxious in her heart, and wanted the imperial doctor to give a reason for fainting immediately.

Imperial Doctor Zhou rushed to the Zhaoyang Palace as quickly as possible, and then didn't even invite the emperor, and went straight to the emperor's bedroom, Qi Mengyao was lying on the dragon bed in the dormitory very weakly, her previously ruddy cheeks became pale, her eyes were half-open, and she didn't seem to be very conscious.

Imperial Doctor Zhou, who has the most skilled medical skills in the Imperial Medical Department, is sitting next to Qi Mengyao at the moment, and seems to be taking her pulse very carefully, and he has been taking it for a long time, but the look on his face is not a look of difficulty, but doubt, and as the time of taking the pulse increases, the doubts on his face become more and more serious.

Ye Ningxiang looked at Mu Jingyuan, hoping that he could directly ask Zhou Imperial Doctor Qi Mengyao what illness he had, but Mu Jingyuan, who had always acted impulsively, seemed unusually calm at the moment, and that feeling seemed to Ye Ningxiang as if she had predicted Qi Mengyao's illness today in advance.

In the end, the Queen Mother, who was also very anxious, finally couldn't help but open her mouth, "Imperial Doctor Zhou, what kind of illness did the queen have that made you refuse to open your mouth for so long?"

Imperial Doctor Zhou looked embarrassed, and it took a lot of effort before he spoke: "This, this...... Lao Chen's medical skills are shallow, and he needs to ask other imperial doctors from the Imperial Medical Department to come and have a look before he can confirm the diagnosis. ”

Soon, in front of Qi Mengyao, the imperial doctors of the entire Imperial Medical Department gathered, and then each imperial doctor began to take turns to take the pulse for Qi Mengyao, without exception, all of them showed doubts and embarrassment.

"Okay, let's say, what kind of illness does the queen have?" asked the queen mother very sternly.

In the end, Imperial Doctor Zhou explained the reason why the queen fainted, but this reason shocked everyone present.

"Queen, pregnant. ”

What, Qi Mengyao has never been pregnant with Mu Jingyuan, Ye Ningxiang was so shocked that she blurted out: "Imperial Doctor Zhou, this is absolutely impossible, it must be a misdiagnosis!"

Mu Jingyuan also seemed to be very shocked, grabbed Imperial Doctor Zhou's arm tightly, opened his eyes wide, and shouted, "What you said is true?"

Qi Mengyao, who was originally in a semi-comatose state, also faintly heard Imperial Doctor Zhou's answer, dragged her tired body up from the bed with difficulty, and then fell heavily to the ground because she was in a hurry to get up, but she didn't feel any pain at all, while grabbing the corner of Imperial Doctor Zhou's clothes, she cried and said: "Imperial Doctor Zhou, what are you talking about, are you talking nonsense right, how can I be pregnant?"

Then she looked at Mu Jingyuan with tears in her eyes, and her face became even paler, "I have never had a round sex with the emperor, how can I be pregnant?"

Mu Jingyuan seemed to believe the words of the imperial doctor, and didn't want to listen to Qi Mengyao's too many explanations, so he ordered the queen to be grounded in the Yixia Palace from now on, and she was not allowed to leave the Yixia Palace for half a step until the truth was ascertained.

Ye Ningxiang just wanted to step forward and prepare to plead with the emperor, but she was grabbed by Mu Xize's arm quickly and accurately. After that, Mu Xize whispered in Ye Ningxiang's ear: "Don't go, don't talk." ”

Ye Ningxiang wanted to break free of Mu Xize's palm, but the power in his palm was so strong that he couldn't even let Ye Ningxiang move his arm slightly, and at this time, Mu Jingyuan and the people gathered in the emperor's bedroom left quickly.

Then the two palace maids helped Qi Mengyao up a little rudely, and said with a cold face: "Queen Mother, please also move to the Yixia Palace." ”

Ye Ningxiang will never forget the way Qi Mengyao looked at her before leaving, just like the way her younger brother Xiao Wu looked at her before he died, despair, anger, reluctance, helplessness, and sadness......

After everyone left, Mu Xize finally let go of the hand that was holding Ye Ningxiang's arm, but Ye Ningxiang gave Mu Xize a slap with her backhand without leaving any emotion, glanced at Mu Xize hatefully, didn't say a word, and then ran out angrily.

What's going on, it's clear that everything is going on step by step, how could such a big change suddenly happen, and this change happened to Qi Changyong's daughter Qi Mengyao. Thinking of this, Ye Ningxiang suddenly thought of a person, Xiao Qingyu.

Xiao Qingyu said before that he wanted to get rid of Qi Changyong, the first powerful minister who left the country, but the target of the attack was his son Qi Sheng, the squire of the military department, and it was Ye Ningxiang who staged a bitter meat drama, first pretending to be kidnapped by bandits with Mu Jingyuan, and then serving as a sword for Mu Jingyuan. In the end, she also won Mu Jingyuan's trust and became Mu Jingyuan's personal female officer.

As long as there is more time, Ye Ningxiang will be able to find evidence of the crime and arrest Qi Sheng, who has just resigned. At this time, Qi Mengyao suddenly had an accident, could it be said that this was also a part of Xiao Qingyu's plan to get rid of Qi Changyong? Could it be that he who always thought he was the one who was in the game turned out to be the one in the game all the time?

Ye Ningxiang couldn't calm down her mind, sneaked into Mu Jingyuan's study and stole the exit token, and then casually lied to the guards guarding the palace gate, and left the palace in a hurry.

Along the way, Ye Ningxiang ran as fast as she could, and by the time she arrived at Xiao Qingyu's residence, she had almost collapsed, sitting on the ground and unable to move.

Xiao Qingyu's orchid house was already dark, probably sensing Ye Ningxiang suddenly breaking in, Xiao Qingyu, who was already asleep, slowly got up, put on a coat, lit a candle, walked to Ye Ningxiang with a smile and squatted down.

"I thought you'd come to me tomorrow, but I didn't expect you to come tonight. ”

Hearing Xiao Qingyu say this, Ye Ningxiang had an ominous premonition in her heart, so she asked straight to the point: "The queen's business is the son's hands and feet?"

Xiao Qingyu still replied with a smile: "Yes, I did it." ”

Hearing Xiao Qingyu readily admit it, Ye Ningxiang's heart, which was still a little warm, instantly became cold, it turned out that Xiao Qingyu had always been the ruthless person who threw the children into the secret room and made them kill each other, it was her Ye Ningxiang's fault, and mistakenly believed that Xiao Qingyu was a good person who was always kind-hearted although he planned to destroy and leave the country.

"I asked Xia Qingqing to invite Qi Mengyao to her Yaohua Palace as a guest, and then drugged Qi Mengyao, Qi Mengyao thought she was just sleepy and accidentally fell asleep, but in fact she was defiled by a guard when she was unconscious. When she said this, Xiao Qingyu was still laughing, and this kind of laughter made Ye Ningxiang feel resentful and even disgusted.

Fortunately, she has been drinking the Fengzi decoction sent by the Imperial Medical Department every day in the past few months since she entered the palace, otherwise she would not have become pregnant at one time. ”

Ye Ningxiang had long been unable to cry, the tears on her face and her hideous face had already made her lose her original appearance, she choked up, and said with great difficulty: "Childe, how can you do this, frame an innocent girl?

"Do you feel that I have broken your heart, then simply break this heart to the end. Xiao Qingyu got up and sat back in his chair, and said very calmly: "Mu Jingyuan also knows about this matter, he deliberately went out on patrol with you, in order to create an opportunity for Xia Qingqing to start, so as to confirm the charge of cheating between the queen and the guards." ”

Impossible, absolutely impossible, although Mu Jingyuan is more impulsive on weekdays, and even a little good and bad, Ye Ningxiang always feels that his heart is very kind. She still remembered that when he was in the untouchable village, he played with the children like a big brother next door, and when he was seriously injured, he took care of himself without clothes, and even knelt down to the innkeeper with a body of ten thousand gold in order to make her live better.

"I'm surprised, right, it's hard to accept, isn't it? Ning Xiang, we have known each other for almost eight years, and you have also trained in my hands for nearly eight years, why don't you understand, in the eyes of people, emotions will eventually dissipate, and only interests will remain eternal. ”

It was her fault that she mistakenly thought that everyone was too beautiful, that the path of destruction was too simple, that no one would shed blood and die in the process. She didn't care about the dignity of the master and servant anymore, she went crazy and stood beside Xiao Qingyu, and roared angrily: "Xiao Qingyu, one day you will pay the price for your despicable deeds!"

Xiao Qingyu not only did not get annoyed, but stroked Ye Ningxiang's shoulder very gently, and said with a smile: "You and I have long been people on the same boat, in the final analysis, it is because you led Mu Jingyuan out of the palace that caused today's tragedy, if I pay the price for this in the future," Speaking of this, Xiao Qingyu suddenly leaned into Ye Ningxiang's ear, and his face was also close to Ye Ningxiang's face, "You will definitely accompany me too." ”

There was no wind or moon tonight, Ye Ningxiang walked alone on the streets of Yong'an in despair, her mind was empty, as if what happened today was all a dream, and now it had been completely withdrawn from her brain.

It's just self-deception, how can something that really happens, what really exists be so simply extracted from her memory! It's just that her heart hurts to the extreme, and she doesn't want to think about it, she doesn't want to face it.

Revenge, is this the price of revenge? If revenge requires more innocent people to shed blood and even die for it, then she might as well commit suicide early and go to Huangquan Road to accompany her relatives. But the road of revenge had already begun, and her hands had become filthy before she knew it, and now she could not stop her revenge.

Suddenly there was a manic laugh of a man, a woman's mad laughter, the laughter was sharp and piercing, but every sound seemed miserable and desolate. Ye Ningxiang laughed wildly as if she was crazy, laughing at her own stupidity, laughing at Xiao Qingyu for being burdened by interests, laughing at Mu Jingyuan's difficulty sleeping and eating every day for the throne, she was laughing at every stupid and greedy human in this world.

Suddenly, her laughter stopped, and a large mouthful of blood gushed out of her mouth, and she fell to the ground from exhaustion. When she looked up again, she saw an incomparably familiar figure.

Mu Xize didn't know when he came to her side, and at this moment he was in front of her, looking at her with great concern and even some heartache, first gently wiped the blood spilling from the corner of her mouth, then gently stroked her arm, and said softly: "Xiao Yezi, come quickly, let's go back to the palace." ”

Ye Ningxiang, who should have been confused, suddenly had an unusually clear mind at this moment, in such a wide street, Mu Xize found her effortlessly, and effortlessly touched the corners of her mouth and stroked her shoulders, and his big peach blossom eyes were now just right to meet her eyes, so Ye Ningxiang had a bold guess in her heart.

Tsai looked at Mu Xize carefully for a long time, and Ye Ningxiang finally asked, "Can you see me, are your eyes already healed?"

I didn't expect Ye Ningxiang, who was already on the verge of collapse, to suddenly ask herself like this, Mu Xize was stunned for a moment, and then replied without concealment: "Sometimes it's good and sometimes it's bad, I can see you now, and I may not be able to see it after a while." ”

Then Mu Xize smiled, half-squatted down, and said, "Come up, I'll carry you back." ”

According to the past, Ye Ningxiang would definitely reject him, but a major event had just happened that made her heart ache, and Xiao Qingyu and Mu Jingyuan, who had always trusted, broke her heart, in such an isolated and helpless situation, Mu Xize was like a life-saving straw that Ye Ningxiang couldn't bear to let go after grabbing it. So Ye Ningxiang climbed onto Mu Xize's body very obediently.

And what Ye Ningxiang didn't know was that there was always a person hiding in the dark corner of the street, this person had been following her without her knowledge, watching her laugh like crazy, watching her vomit blood because of extreme depression, and even seeing Mu Xize carrying her, still hiding in the dark and not showing up.
