Duan Qingli's eyes darkened, and she felt a little upset. No matter who dared to collude with the regent and almost destroyed Gu Palace, she would never let him go!
She suppressed her thoughts and entered the bedroom. Ah Lanyi hurriedly followed and asked: "Mother, what happened?"
Duan Qingli sat down at the table, and someone from the palace immediately brought tea.
She picked it up, took a sip, and said in a cold voice: "Today, the regent disguised himself as a high priest and broke into the Gu Palace in an attempt to kidnap the saint."
A Lanyi was stunned for a moment, then realized: "But wasn't the regent imprisoned by his mother? How did he escape, and why didn't anyone come to report him?"
Speaking of this, Duan Qingli became a little angry. She slammed the table and said angrily: "The one in the dungeon is not the real regent at all, but Xiao Chengyi used a stand-in to confuse us."
A Lanyi was really surprised. She had been worried about how to rescue the regent. She didn't expect that he was not caught at all.
But since the regent had found a substitute, why didn't he tell her?
Alani didn't have time to think too much and continued to ask: "What about the regent right now?"
Duan Qingli snorted: "The person is dead!"
"What?"
A Lanyi was shocked and her eyes widened. She looked at Duan Qingli with shock in her eyes: "Dead...dead? Mother killed him!"
She couldn't believe that the dignified regent actually died in Gu Palace? And all of this happened because of her.
Duan Qingli glanced at her and said in a calm voice: "He was killed by the saint. Moreover, it is a death penalty for him to break into my Gu Palace without permission."
Ah Lanyi became more and more confused after hearing these words, but before she could ask any more questions, she saw the guard hurriedly coming to report: "Your Majesty, we have found the high priest."
Duan Qingli frowned and said in a deep voice: "Bring him here."
Not long after, he saw the guards carrying someone in. Duan Qingli was startled when she saw Jun Limo being carried in. She hurriedly walked over and asked, "What's going on? What's wrong with the high priest?"
"
The guard replied: "My subordinate is the high priest who was found in the mountain forest near the Gu Palace. He was already unconscious when he was found, and so were all the guards responsible for protecting the high priest."
Duan Qingli hurriedly said: "Quickly tell the imperial doctor."
She asked people to carry the high priest to the bed, and saw that his lips were a little purple, obviously he had been poisoned.
Duan Qingli frowned and looked at him, the doubts in her heart getting deeper and deeper. If it was really the high priest and the regent who conspired, it would not have ended up like this, right?
Unless it's a bitter trick.
Fortunately, the royal doctor rushed over soon.
After the imperial doctor took the high priest's pulse, he knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, the high priest is poisoned, but the poison he has is not from our southern Xinjiang, and I don't know how to cure it?
And I see that the high priest's pulse is weak, I'm afraid... he won't be able to hold on for long."
Duan Qingli looked shocked when she heard this, and she yelled angrily: "It's useless. If it can't heal the high priest, don't live."
She only had a son like Jun Limo, and even though there was suspicion between mother and son, seeing Jun Limo unconscious made her, a mother, feel uncomfortable.
The imperial doctor was so frightened that he was sweating profusely, but he had never seen this poison before, so he didn't know how to deal with it?
Ah Lanyi looked at Jun Limo nervously. Suddenly she remembered something and said to Duan Qingli: "Mother, is the saint still in the Gu Palace? She is proficient in medicine and may be able to save the high priest. If that doesn't work, she can save the high priest."
Can’t the King of Gu also do it?”
Duan Qingli's eyebrows moved slightly, she nodded and said: "Take the high priest to the Gu Palace."
