"Your Majesty, the Queen, Princess Yilan's food was poisoned. Fortunately, she was discovered in time and the poison was forced out of her body. She is still in a coma!"
Hong Yi knelt on one knee in front of Long Chenyi and Mu Tianxue and reported respectfully.
Hearing this, Long Chenyi and Mu Tianxue glanced at each other in unison, and they were both startled in their hearts. The Jinxiu Inn is the property of the Murong family, and the workers in the inn are all experienced and can be trusted.
It is precisely because of this that the Jinxiu Inn was chosen as the inn to welcome the Beiteng envoy! In addition, there are secret guards inside, so it is impossible for anyone to poison the food and assassinate He Yilan!
After pondering for a moment, Long Chen also spoke: "Have you caught the murderer?"
Hong Yi raised her head and looked at Long Chenyi and Mu Tianxue, frowning and saying, "Messenger Kong ordered people to arrest everyone in the inn and is interrogating them one by one!"
Long Chenyi's eyes narrowed a bit, he put down the memorial in his hand and looked at Mu Tianxue: "What do you think -"
Mu Tianxue raised her eyebrows and said, "The waiter who is responsible for delivering food to Princess Yilan was specially arranged by you. It is impossible for him to poison the food. Moreover, there are secret guards in the inn who serve as undercover workers. Any outsiders want to
It’s extremely difficult to sneak in!”
A sneer appeared on Long Chenyi's lips, he took a sip of ginseng tea and asked Hongyi: "Who is responsible for delivering lunch to Princess Yilan's room!!"
Hong Yi hurriedly said: "Secret guard Ling Lingjiu is in charge of delivering the food! The royal chef in the palace personally cooks the dishes. All of Princess Yilan's meals are prepared by the secret guard himself. It is absolutely impossible to tamper with the food. Moreover, the
All the thirteen secret guards of the general were gathered together, and no one was found missing! Or there were outsiders mixed in!"
Mu Tianxue lowered her phoenix eyes and glanced at the portrait on the table, then said to Hongyi: "As long as Princess Yilan's life is not in danger, go to the warehouse to get some good tonics and jade noodles and go to the inn!"
"Yes, Master Snow." Hongyi quickly retreated after accepting the order.
Mu Tianxue walked to Long Chenyi with the portrait and handed the portrait to him, "Lianyue fell down the steps and was seriously injured. Just to show face, you can visit her!"
Long Chen also frowned uncontrollably and pulled Mu Tianxue into his arms, his eyes filled with anger. "If you want to know the truth, there are many ways. Why do you want to push your husband away -"
Mu Tianxue hugged his neck and said with a smile: "How can I bear to push you out? If I go there in person, you won't worry. If I send someone else to go, it will arouse suspicion for many months.
But if you go in person, not only can you dispel Lianyue's wariness, but you can also get the most prepared answer. Of course, I really don't want you to find the answer I want from her, which means that both will
There is a war!”
Long Chen also stroked Mu Tianxue's brocade-like black hair, carried her to the brocade couch, carefully laid her flat on the couch, bent his head and kissed her forehead, then her eyes and nose, which were red.
"You take a rest for a while, I'll be back soon!"
Mu Tianxue smiled softly, raised her head and kissed Long Chenyi's thin lips, taking a deep breath on his slightly cool lips, "I'm waiting for you -"
Long Chen also pinched Mu Tianxue's nose lovingly, stretched out his hand to put down the red curtain, turned around, walked to the table, picked up the portrait, and left the dormitory!
Shangyang Palace
"Concubine Chen, you haven't eaten all the grains of rice all day and night. If you don't eat or drink, your health will only get worse and your injuries will get worse. Just listen to my slave and eat some porridge!"
A fair-looking palace maid, about fifteen or sixteen years old, held a bowl of porridge in her hands, and knelt in front of the brocade couch, looking worriedly at Lian Yue, who was lying on the couch without saying a word.
Lianyue stared at the entrance of the palace without saying a word, as if waiting for someone. After a long time, she squirmed her throat and asked in a low voice: "Xi'er, tell me when will the emperor come to visit?"
I?"
The eyes of the palace maid named Xi'er were hot, and she burst into tears. She sobbed softly: "Princess, why are you doing this? The emperor only has the queen in his heart, why are you hurting yourself just to get someone!"
Lianyue looked at the entrance of the dormitory, her eyes already dim with tears, and her face was covered with tears. She sobbed and said: "I just want him to look at me and say hello to me.
Do you know? Since I was made a concubine, he has never looked at me, let alone said a word to me. Do you know? He is willing to say even a word to me, even if I am injured, he will not
Take a look at me!"
"Princess--" Xi'er put down the porridge in her hand and took the handkerchief to wipe Lianyue's tears. "Princess, stop talking. You want to see the emperor. Please go and beg the emperor to come and visit you!"
"Really?" Lianyue grabbed Xi'er's hand, her dull eyes were bright and dimmed instantly. She let go of Xi'er and smiled bitterly, "What is your identity? How did you invite the emperor to come?"
Look at me!"
"Princess, I will risk my life to invite the emperor here!" Xi'er's face was full of determination. She picked up the porridge and said: "Princess, please eat the porridge first. I will beg you immediately."
Please, Your Majesty!"
Lian Yue looked at Xi'er with a determined face, opened her mouth helplessly, and let Xi'er feed the porridge into her mouth spoonful by spoonful.
"The Emperor has arrived——"
At this moment, the eunuch's shrill propaganda voice came from outside the dormitory.
Lian Yue was startled and her face was full of joy, but she smiled bitterly in the blink of an eye. How could he come to see her? She must have been hearing hallucinations.
"Princess, did you hear that?" Xi'er looked at Lianyue with wide eyes. "Princess, the emperor came to see you?"
"The Emperor has arrived——"
The communication sound sounded again, and the sound was much closer to the dormitory.
Lianyue grasped Xi'er's hand tightly, her face full of joy: "Xi'er, I heard you right! It's the emperor who is here, right -"
With tears in Xi'er's eyes, she nodded desperately and said happily: "Princess, you heard right, the emperor is here to see you!!"
Lianyue quickly wiped away the tears on her face with her sleeves, and looked at Xi'er hurriedly: "Xi'er, hurry up, tidy up my makeup!"
She opened the quilt and moved her injured body to get down, but her injured knee and broken arm were so painful that she accidentally fell to the ground with tears in her eyes.
"Princess, you are too injured and can't stay here yet!" Xi'er put the porridge bowl in her hand and quickly went to help Lianyue, "Princess, how are you-"
"The Emperor has arrived——"
An announcement sounded outside the dormitory, and immediately after, Long Chen was seen walking into the dormitory.
Before Xi'er helped Lianyue up from the ground, she saw Long Chen also leaving the bedroom. The two of them panicked and didn't care whether they were kneeling or lying on the ground, so they lowered their heads and said respectfully.
