Chapter 525 Chapter 524 The Emperor and Empress are Poisoned
"Knock, knock, knock..." The rapid knock on the door seemed unusually abrupt in the dark night, "Your Highness, Your Highness, something happened..."
As the red candles shone brightly, the two people on the bed were slightly startled, especially Qi Ziyan, who stared at the door of the room angrily, who was so ignorant that he came to disturb his wedding night.
"Go and have a look. I'm looking for you in such a hurry. I'm afraid it's really urgent." Jin Han pushed him and glanced at his bare chest. His face was slightly red, and he didn't know where to put his eyes.
"I'll go take a look, we'll continue later..." He leaned down and whispered in her ear, admiring her shy face. He stood up and got out of bed, put on a coat, and walked to the door, impatient.
Said: "What's the matter?"
Outside the door was his trusted guard Jiang Su. Seeing the anxiety on his usually expressionless face, Qi Ziyan also frowned. It seemed that something was wrong.
"Both the emperor and the queen were poisoned. The imperial doctor diagnosed that they ate poisonous food at the wedding banquet. Doctor Lu gave the emperor antidote pills, but the emperor vomited black blood all over the floor and fell unconscious..." Jiang Su spoke clearly.
, spoke very quickly, "Now that Concubine De is in charge of the overall situation in the harem, the fifth prince... ordered that Dr. Lu be arrested and sent to prison. The thing happened so suddenly, and my subordinates have already sent people to the Liluo Palace to inform the young marquis.
, but Princess Ya'an has just given birth and is in weak health, so the young prince may not be able to leave. I heard that Princess Lingwan also has fetal force..."
After hearing Jiang Su's report, Qi Ziyan, who was a little anxious at first, regained his composure.
So many coincidences put together, it was just a series of schemes. Qi Ziyan raised the corners of his lips coldly, and used his wedding banquet to drag him, the third prince, who had been out of the game a long time ago, into the water. It seemed that the other party was determined to do it.
He poured dirty water on him.
He couldn't help but admire this trick of linking up one link after another, step by step, but he didn't expect that there are still such people in the court today. King An fell, the Yang family was ruined, and the Ji family lost its previous momentum.
, I didn’t expect that there are people who are not afraid of death.
"Where is the father?" He groaned, already having an idea in his mind.
"In the Queen's palace, Concubine De was also there. I heard that His Highness the Fifth Highness summoned several important officials of the court overnight, many of whom came directly from the wedding banquet. His Highness also secretly mobilized the troops outside the city.
"Jiang Su is a good at inquiring about information. He did not need Qi Ziyan to say more, he found out all the information he could find out.
"Humph, he really takes himself seriously." Qi Ziyan does not participate in political affairs and has no idea about the throne, but this does not mean that he can tolerate Qi Zijie and De Fei being so powerful. Looking at their actions, he wants to
He believed that these things had nothing to do with their mother and son, but he would never believe it even to death.
Jiang Su did not respond to his master's comments, but lowered his head and respectfully waited for his master's instructions.
"I'll go to the Queen's Palace. You go to Dongfang Ye and Su Li immediately and tell them what happened. They will find something to do." This will definitely not shirk responsibility. His Highness, the powerless third prince, will definitely not shirk responsibility.
At best, it is just to suppress the situation and prevent the mother and son from becoming too arrogant, but in the final analysis, it still needs to rely on those powerful people.
"Yes." As he spoke, Jiang Su had already turned around and left, his movements neat and without any sloppiness.
Qi Ziyan stood there, thinking for a while, and then returned to the room. Jin Han had already put on a coat and was sitting by the bed waiting for him. Seeing his serious face, he hurriedly asked what happened.
He told her what happened in the simplest language. Unexpectedly, he saw her face suddenly turn pale. He patted her shoulder distressedly and comforted her. This girl was so well protected from the bottom up.
Something like this happened on her first day in the palace, which must have left a deep mark on her heart, but he couldn't care so much about it at this time.
"Can you still leave? I'll take you to Liluo Palace first." Originally, he planned to go directly to the queen's palace and leave the guards to protect Jin Han, but after thinking about it again, he decided to send him to Liluo Palace.
Luo Dian felt more at ease. He knew that there were secret guards following Dongfang Ye and sent Jin Han there, and he felt at ease.
"Yes." Jin Han's legs were a little sore, but she didn't want to delay his time at this time. He put her safety first, which made her feel warmer in her heart. In fact, this man is not as good as he looks on the outside.
Irresponsible.
Both of them put on their clothes as quickly as possible. Qi Ziyan put a thick cloak on her body, held her in his arms, and performed Qinggong as soon as his body moved. After a few jumps and gallops, he reached the fence.
Fall into the palace.
At this time, Dongfang Ye already knew about the changes in the palace. When he saw Qi Ziyan carrying Jin Han over, he nodded towards the two of them. He summoned Chu Xia and took Jin Han to the room next to Liu Yun to rest.
"Do you have too many secret guards here?" Qi Ziyan curled his lips. As soon as he approached Liluo Hall, he noticed various defensive auras. He noticed the positions of many secret guards with just a few glances. He thought to himself
His plan was indeed right. Now this Liluo Palace is impregnable and much safer than his palace.
"Liu Yun, Ling Wan, and even Wan'er are here, and now Jin Han is also here..." The implication is that Liluo Palace is now a group of defenseless women. With such a big change happening in the palace, he will naturally want to
Protect the rear first so that you don't have to worry about anything later.
It was because of his failure to make arrangements several times before that Liu Yun suffered so much and suffered so much. How could he make the same mistakes again now? Naturally, he had to settle down with Liu Yun first.
"Did you send someone to keep an eye on Lu Ming?" Qi Ziyan knew that Dongfang Ye had a close friendship with Lu Ming. Now he didn't seem too anxious. He must have arranged for someone to secretly protect Lu Ming.
"I heard they were tortured." Dongfang Ye was very calm when he said this, but Qi Ziyan could feel the cold murderous intent in his tone. He couldn't help but look up at this sickly-looking noble man. They had known each other for quite a while.
But Dongfang Ye rarely has such moments, he is usually as indifferent as water.
"I'm afraid it's Concubine De and Qi Zijie's fault." Qi Ziyan pursed his lips and expressed his guess.
The smile in Dongfang Ye's eyes became colder and colder. He had let go of the Ji family and Concubine De for Liu Yun before, but he didn't expect that this woman was so good that she even hit a snake with a stick. She really went too far.
"But I really don't understand. Even if they intend to use this opportunity to eradicate their dissidents, the first thorn in their side should be eldest brother and me. What does it have to do with Dr. Lu?" Qi Ziyan looked very confused and full.
He looked confused, "I'm just a doctor, what influence can I have?"
His words made Dongfang Ye's eyes flash with light, as if he had suddenly figured out many things.
After a long silence, Dongfang Ye suddenly spoke: "Because Lu Ming is also the emperor's son."
