Si Xi saw that Yinzhen's hands were shaking slightly and said quickly: "Your Majesty, don't worry. The fifth elder brother will definitely be able to survive this disaster."
Yinzhen pursed his lips and said nothing. He kept staring at Rong Yuan's back. After an unknown amount of time, he finally saw Rong Yuan stop what he was doing. Yinzhen quickly went up and said, "What's wrong, Hong Zhou?"
Is everything okay?"
"I'm not sure if I return to the emperor. Wu Beile is seriously injured. Whether he can survive this time depends on him. Common people can only do their best." As soon as Rong Yuan finished speaking, Yinzhen said: "Definitely...
...We must save Hong Zhou, he is just past his tender age and should not leave so early."
"The common people understand the emperor's mood. The common people will definitely use what they have learned throughout their lives to treat Wu Beile. Your Majesty, don't worry too much. After all, you are not in good health either."
"I'm fine." As soon as he said these words, Yinzhen started coughing violently, and his chest felt uncomfortable. Fortunately, Rong was far away, and after the acupuncture, he felt much better.
Rong Yuan put away the silver needle and said: "Your Majesty, you should go back to the palace to rest early. If anything happens to Five Belles, the common people will have someone go and report it to you."
Yinzhen also knew that there was no use staying here, but he really couldn't worry about Hong Zhou, so he only left after watching Hong Zhou drink the cooked medicine half-swallowing and half-vomiting.
In the palace, Concubine Yu was talking to Ling Ruo in the Chengqian Palace, "Mother, where did the child Hongzhou go? He didn't come back all night, and he didn't bring any letter back, which makes people anxious. On weekdays,
He is not an unreasonable person, so why is there no news at all this time? The emperor left the palace early in the morning, and I don’t know if it is related to this incident. Madam, do you think anything will happen to Hongzhou?"
Early this morning, Hong Zhou's direct descendant from the Wukuza clan of the Fujin Dynasty came to the palace to ask for an audience with the Geng clan. Hong Zhou didn't come back all night last night, and there was no news. She was worried and sent someone to ask at the Ministry of Household Affairs. Unexpectedly,
People from the household department said that Hong Zhou went back last night and had not been seen since.
Feeling that something was wrong, she went to Prince Bao's palace again, but she also had not seen Hongzhou. She didn't know what to do, so she went into the palace and asked to see Geng. Although Geng comforted her not to worry, she was also very worried in her heart.
When they saw Yinzhen in the Heart Palace, he happened to be out of the palace again, which made Geng even more worried.
"Don't scare yourself. Maybe it's nothing. The fifth elder brother just drank a few more glasses of wine with others and got confused. He forgot to send someone back to report the news." Ling Ruo happened to meet him when he was out for a walk.
Mr. Geng saw that she was worried, so he went over and asked a few questions, only to find out what was going on.
"I also hope that I am being careless, but I don't know why. From last night to now, my right eyelid has been twitching, as if something bad is about to happen."
"You always think like this, if nothing happens, something will happen to you. Well, don't think about it now. When the emperor comes back later, I will accompany you there. Is that okay?"
Geng nodded. After a while, Yang Hai came in and said: "Master, the emperor has returned."
"Yes." Ling Ruo responded and went to Yangxin Hall with Geng. The early winter wind blew on his face, which was already a bit biting.
After seeing Yinzhen, Geng hurriedly bowed and said with some urgency: "Your Majesty, I wonder if Hong Zhou came to attend the morning court today?"
Yinzhen hesitated for a moment and said, "Hong Zhou... something happened last night."
Ling Ruo was startled, but she didn't expect that something really happened to Hong Zhou, and it seemed that Yinzhen had just left the palace and was related to this incident.
After hearing what Yinzhen said, Geng couldn't wait to ask: "Your Majesty, Hong Zhou... what happened to him? Does it matter?"
When Geng learned that someone had assassinated Hong Zhou and that his life was in danger, his hands and feet were weak, and he leaned on the palace man. It took him a long time to recover, and said with a cry: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, please save me."
Hong Zhou, he is my concubine’s only child, nothing can happen to him!”
"I know that I have asked all the imperial doctors to go to Shuntian Mansion, and Imperial Physician Xu has also gone there. With them here, Hong Zhou will be fine."
Geng nodded in panic, and then summoned up the courage to say: "Your Majesty, can I go to Shuntian Mansion to see Hong Zhou? I am really worried about him."
"You're not a doctor, so there's no point in going there. Besides, you're in Shuntian Mansion, so it's very inconvenient. Don't worry, Hong Zhou will be fine. It won't be too late to go see him after he gets better."
Seeing what Yinzhen said, Geng had no choice but to suppress the worries in her heart, lowered her head and said: "Yes, I obey the decree." She mustered up the courage to ask the words just now. After all, she was a concubine.
The concubine is not allowed to leave the palace.
"Okay, you go back to the palace first. As soon as there is news about Hongzhou, I will send someone to inform you immediately." After ordering Geng to go down, Yinzhen said: "Ruo'er, I suspect that the person who assassinated Hongzhou was also a victim.
Hongshi ordered."
Ling Ruo exclaimed in shock: "Hongshi? Why did he do this? Is it to take revenge on the emperor?"
Yinzhen shook his head and said: "I don't know, all this is just speculation. I have ordered the city gate to be sealed, and I will do my best to hunt down the people who assassinated Hong Shi. They must be caught. I am just worried about Hong Zhou now. I don't know what he can do."
Can you survive this test?"
Ling Ruoda was about to comfort Yinzhen when he suddenly remembered something, his hands and feet suddenly became cold, and his body was trembling.
Seeing her like this, Yinzhen held her hand in surprise, "Ruo'er, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?"
"No, I'm not feeling uncomfortable, but I'm thinking of something." Ling Ruo said with unspeakable fear in her eyes, "If... if all this is really done by Hong Shi, it's for revenge on the emperor.
Then the person he should assassinate most is not Hong Zhou, but...but..." She did not dare to say the last two words, for fear that once she said them, things would come true.
But what she meant, Yinzhen didn't understand. He shook his head and said: "No, Buddha's 200,000 troops have been staring at Tsarist Russia. Hongshi did not dare to do this. Besides, it is not his turn to deal with Tsarist Russia."
The one who really makes the decision is the Tsar. Besides, I have sent so many spies to protect Hongli, and with the Buddha's icon around, there will be no danger."
"I hope so." Even so, Ling Ruo couldn't really feel at ease. She always felt that Hongli's side was not as stable as Yinzhen said.
In fact, this is indeed the case. Although Hongli escaped from the inn by relying on a group of spies to fight their way out, and injured the feet of other horses, making them unable to pursue, but after two days of galloping,
He actually felt like he was being followed. Apart from the person who wanted to kill him at the inn before, Hongli couldn't think of anyone else who would follow him.
