The delicate beauty was spoiled by four older brothers after her rebirth

Chapter 378 Mercury!

Soon a guard ran over, "Go back to Your Majesty, it's the imperial concubine!"

Emperor Wu Xuan frowned, "Wanru?"

Xu Wanru was surrounded by a group of guards and walked in. The accompanying maid was holding a cup of soup, which was steaming, and the beauty smiled like a flower, "Your Majesty, my concubine made chicken soup for you with my own hands. You almost fell, why are you still angry with my concubine?"

Emperor Wu Xuan looked at her for a while, and his tense nerves relaxed a little, "Let's put down the soup, you come and rub it for me, I have a very headache."

"Yes."

Xu Wanru walked behind him with a smile, and all the guards retreated. In a place where Emperor Wu Xuan couldn't see, her fingers trembled slightly, and a tremor appeared in her eyes.

As she often served the emperor, she had naturally seen a lot of blood. Today, her spies came to report that the emperor had made a big fuss in the imperial study. Shocking news!

Fortunately, many years of living in the palace had trained her to have a calm face, and she could guarantee that if she showed any abnormality, the emperor would kill her immediately.

It's not easy for her to stay out of it right now, as early as a few years ago, after Bai Xianyu, who was only a child, came to her and rescued her and her child, Xu Wanru made up her mind to advance and retreat with the Bai family.

All of her mother's family were exiled, if it wasn't for Bai Xianyu's elder brother Bai Jingyuan secretly sending someone to protect them, they would have died on the way to exile, and the female family members don't know what happened to them.

Bai Xianyu has been kind to their Xu family for rebuilding, even if she dies, she still wants to spread the news!

The Empress Dowager came out of the imperial study and returned to her bedroom. The doors and windows were closed tightly, and there was a kind of bone-chilling coldness sticking to her skin. The personal nurse carefully held her hand and said worriedly, "Your Majesty, you Will His Majesty hold grudges against you if you speak to His Majesty like this? After all, this world is still His Majesty's world, if he has other thoughts..."

"Bold!" The gray-haired old man stopped, "Are you trying to provoke the relationship between Ai Jia and His Majesty?"

"I don't dare!" The nanny knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly, "The slave is just thinking about your mother..."

"Your Majesty will definitely not attack your majesty, but there are mixed people, fish and dragons around your majesty. If you just listen to slander in a moment of confusion... wouldn't it be dangerous for your majesty to hold that thing in her hand so blatantly?"

The Empress Dowager looked at this loyal servant who had been with her for decades, paused for a moment, and suddenly sat on the seat and smiled, and she waved to the nanny.

Mammy didn't understand what he meant, she stood up cautiously, and put her ear on.

"Do you really think that the Ai family is that stupid?" The Empress Dowager's voice was vicissitudes, with some old-fashioned cunning, "What the emperor saw was nothing but fake."

Mammy covered her mouth in shock, "Fake..."

"The will, of course, exists. It's no different from what the Ai family showed him, but it was a forgery. It was copied bit by bit according to the real will."

Since ancient times, the royal family has no so-called family affection. She repeatedly emphasized affection, but it was just to give the emperor a step and let him follow his way.

After all, if you push too fast, even a rabbit will bite, let alone an emperor.

She knew that the emperor was suspicious, and when he saw something suspected to be the late emperor's edict, he would definitely send someone to investigate thoroughly. She dealt with almost all the people who knew the secret back then, but there was only one person, and she kept him just for today.

Sure enough, the emperor accepted this fact.

"Your Majesty, where is the real edict? Is it safe? In recent days, the imprints made by slaves in the palace have been destroyed more and more frequently."

The emperor couldn't sit still anymore. The place where she lived and the places she frequented must have been turned upside down long ago.

The Empress Dowager didn't look worried, she smiled slightly, "Naturally it's safe, he'll never find it."

If he can't find it, it means that he will be under the control of their Yang family for the rest of his life.

If he kills her, the people of the Yang family will find the will and reveal the truth to the public!

Now those who support the big Kui and stand at the peak of power are nothing more than the Xie family and the Bai family. If the emperor doesn't think about the old relationship and turns against their Yang family, then he can't even think about sitting in the emperor's position safely. superior.

The empress dowager touched the armor, did the emperor really think that no one knew what he did to Jing An and Jing An's husband?Or, after playing the beloved brother for a long time, he has already forgotten the blood debt in his hand?
If Jing'an and Xie Xingyun knew that his husband, his father, died at the hands of the emperor, would he still be able to gain the loyalty of the Xie family?

One by one, the emperor was not clean.

Even at that time, if the Yang family is not afraid of the power to expose all these things, it will be famous forever... Only the Bai family is troublesome. The emperor's side.

But there is no need to panic.

Could it be that the Xie family and the Yang family could not suppress the Bai family together? It was a troubled time, and could the emperor bear the anger of the Nanzhao king who lost his son?
If he wanted to die, he had to see if he had the ability.

The Empress Dowager smiled and did not express these considerations. Although the loyal servant is loyal, she is only a servant. She does not trust anyone except herself.

……

Bai Xianyu finished the painting early, and Mo Yu waited until Mother Jiang left, and then quickly reported to her.

"Last night when Nanny Jiang took You Lan for a walk, my subordinates followed your arrangement and let Dr. Sun run into them on the road. Now that Dr. Sun has taken over You Lan's treatment, I would like to ask if you have any questions from the Imperial Master in the future. more convenient."

"Okay, I see, thank you Doctor Sun for me." Bai Xianyu put the scroll in his sleeve, then shook, and opened the door with a branch just like yesterday.

Because he had greeted Dr. Sun early in the morning, he went to give You Lan a calming medicine early in the morning, and now You Lan is lying on the bed resting.

"Alan." Bai Xianyu went through the window and walked to her bed with a smile, "Look what is this?"

You Lan looked especially quiet, like a naughty child who suddenly became obedient and stared at her with thick eyebrows, "Roast chicken!"

"bingo!"

"Daddy is so kind! Bring such a big roast chicken to Alan!" In You Lan's heart, Bai Xianyu's status was a little higher. When she smiled, she looked like a normal girl, but her tone was childish. The roast chicken that Aunt Jiang brought to Alan is much bigger!"

Bai Xianyu smiled and found a clean place to sit down. Seeing that Youlan was eating so deliciously, she waited patiently for a while. When Youlan was almost finished eating, she asked with a smile, "Alan is full. Can you answer a question for me?"

"it is good!"

"Has Alan seen this flower?" She unfolded the picture scroll that she had prepared a long time ago, and the two gemstones fluttered in the rain, coming alive, and the crystal clear water droplets seemed to seep through the picture scroll and land on her fingertips.

With the foreshadowing from last time, and taking Dr. Sun's medicine, Youlan's state is relatively stable. She seems to have a premonition of something, and slowly raises her head, as if in slow motion. When her eyes fall on the painting in the boy's hand, she The eyeballs still shrank uncontrollably, and the hands began to tremble.

Bai Xianyu held her hand at the right time, and said comfortingly: "Don't be afraid, Alan can say whatever comes to mind, and I will protect you."

You Lan swallowed her saliva, and couldn't pronounce clearly, "There are..."

"What's on the flower?"

"There's blood." She cried out, "Daddy, there's a lot of blood!"

Bai Xianyu hugged her, patted her shoulder lightly, and said softly, "What else did you see besides the blood Alan?"

You Lan shivered in her arms, saying incoherently: "It's so cold, mother's hands are so cold."

Bai Xianyu saw that she was becoming agitated, so he stopped talking, and carefully analyzed the words that came out of You Lan's mouth in his heart.

"Daddy..." Youlan was trembling, but cold sweat broke out in midsummer, "They buried Alan in the soil, Alan, Alan grew up with it."

Bai Xianyu's eyes moved to the painting in shock, could it be that Youlan was also murdered that day?

How old was she then, and how did she survive!

"Daddy, Alan misses her mother, can you take Alan to see her mother?" You Lan suddenly grabbed her sleeve, her eyes were full of longing, "How about it, Daddy?"

Bai Xianyu hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't bear to lie to her, "Mother is gone, when I take you out, I will build your mother's tomb, okay?"

Youlan couldn't understand what she said, she just shook her sleeves, and when she mentioned mother, it seemed that she had forgotten all fears, she blinked, and there was still residual fear in her eyes, "But, mother Right here."

Bai Xianyu felt goosebumps all over her body for a moment, she couldn't help touching her arm, "Where?"

"Aunt Jiang took Alan there yesterday. Daddy is so stupid, he can't remember the way!" You Lan laughed happily, "Daddy followed Alan!"

Bai Xianyu frowned, Alan's mother must be gone, so what did she mean by mother here?
Could it be a cemetery?

There will also be dead people in the imperial tomb, and the servants will be buried together in one place after death. They are slaves in life, and they will stay in the imperial tomb after death to serve the nobles underground.

She had heard of such a land, but the map given by Xie Xingyun didn't have this land, so she didn't know where it was.

However, Xie Xingyun's map is so detailed, how could there be only one cemetery missing?
Do you feel that the servant's cemetery is not on the table, and there is no need to circle it, or is there something special about that place?

Bai Xianyu felt that this matter was vaguely weird, so he immediately decided to take a look with Youlan, "Okay, Alan will take me to see your mother."

You Lan jumped up excitedly, "Okay, okay!"

In the dark, Bai Xianyu and Mo Yu exchanged glances, the latter nodded and quickly made arrangements.

Mo Yu should know where You Lan's mother's grave is, so let him think of a way to clear up all the people on the road in advance. Mo Yu should also have great rights here, as the number one of "Su Qingbai" Many of his subordinates obeyed his orders directly.

By the time Mo Yu gestured to Bai Xianyu, more than half an hour had passed. Madam Jiang was sent to work and would not be back until evening, they had plenty of time.

Even so, Bai Xianyu kept a little distance from Youlan, "Alan, how about I play a game with you?"

"Okay, okay, what game!"

"How about we compete to see who gets to your mother's grave first?"

You Lan's eyes glowed brightly, "Daddy is definitely no better than Alan!"

"That's not necessarily the case. I'll count one, two, three, and we'll run together. Alan needs to keep his voice down. If we disturb the girls, we won't be able to go."

"Hmm!" You Lan stared at the road in front of her, with an abnormal seriousness in her eyes.

"Three, two, one... run!"

You Lan rushed out excitedly, Bai Xianyu ran for a short distance, stopped when he turned the corner, and glanced at Mo Yu beside him, "Come on, let's take a shortcut."

"Yes!"

Youlan ran and ran desperately, no one played this kind of game with her for a long time, her running hair fell loose, the wooden hairpin slid down and hung on the dry and curly hair, revealing eight teeth, laugh.

After running for a long time, she didn't hear any movement behind her, but Youlan didn't stop either. She ran to the cemetery the way she had walked countless times.

But before she stopped, she saw her father standing at the exit, looking at her with clear eyes.

"Alan lost." She heard her father's very gentle voice.

You Lan took a breath, but still looked at her happily, "Daddy lied to Alan! Daddy knows where mother is!"

Bai Xianyu spread his hands, and lowered his tone helplessly, "I didn't lie to Alan, Daddy only knows that it's here, but I can't tell which one belongs to Alan's mother."

"That dad is so stupid!" You Lan showed a child's proud expression, and walked towards the inside, "Alan remembers it!"

It is not so much a cemetery as it is more like a mass burial mound. How many people in the cemetery of the servants will be careful, and there are not many people who come to worship. They are all slaves. The living people are already suffering, let alone It's not a relative, it's a great affection to come to have a look every Qingming Festival.

There are many graves here, most of which are unnamed graves, and those with tombstones are simply carved with stones, and the handwriting is scribbled. After Mo Yu brought her here, he also encountered difficulties. I don't know where Youlan's mother's tomb is.

But Youlan felt like she had returned to her own home here. Normally, she would sometimes fall when walking on flat ground, but here, she stepped firmly on rocks and pits.

"It's here!" You Lan smiled and stood on a small sunken cliff, pointing to the bottom and said: "Dad, remember?"

Bai Xianyu shook her head honestly, she lifted the corner of her robe, and jumped off the crooked neck tree beside her, this is Youlan's mother, she should also bow and thank her.

"Mother Xiuyu, I came here in a hurry this time, I didn't bring anything to see you, I will make up for it tomorrow, please don't be offended..."

She closed her eyes and finished speaking, then slowly opened them, she had been observing Youlan for a long time, and there didn't seem to be anything special about it, maybe Youlan just wanted to kiss her mother, so she sacrificed After praying, he was going to take You Lan back to avoid any accidents.

But when she lowered her head, she saw You Lan squatting on the ground, digging something with her hands.

Bai Xianyu took a closer look, and immediately reached out to stop her, "Don't touch!"

You Lan withdrew her hand resentfully, dejected as if her prank had failed, "But Daddy, this looks shiny."

"Of course it's shiny." Bai Xianyu leaned down, gently picked up a small piece of soil with his hands, and squinted his eyes, "This is mercury."

How could there be mercury here?
