Bai Yueguang, the stand-in for Prince Sick Jiao

The news of Hu Jingshu's death finally reached the palace.

Cai Fuya's expression was a little numb, and she turned her dry eyes to look outside the hall, only to see pink flowers swaying in the spring breeze.After a long time, she leaned on the corner of the table and got up slowly, as if possessed by a demon, she just wanted to go out.

"Ma'am, where are you going?"

The maid who spoke was Fang Fei, who was assigned by Fu Xiuyun, in order to watch her drink the Bizi soup after every bedtime.

Cai Fuya didn't seem to hear her, she staggered down the steps with her tired body, every step she took, her heart ached even more.

The Changchun Palace has been empty for four years, but during these four years, the place is still lush with flowers and plants, and the sun is shining brightly.

Regardless of Fang Fei's obstruction, she stumbled out and walked in the direction of the palace gate.The dazzling sun coated her body with golden brilliance, and in the spring scenery everywhere, she was the only one who was completely white.

She walked out of the Changchun Palace and walked through the Imperial Garden, thinking she could find her way home, but there was still a vermilion palace wall in front of her.

One wall after another lay in front of her, and as far as the eye could see, there were countless doors and exits that would never be seen.

Cai Fuya supported the cold palace wall, tears rolled down her cheeks, her fingers stretched straight, her nails were snapped off, the crimson blood gradually merged with the crimson wall, helpless and powerless, her body slipped little by little, and she fell to the ground , Biting the back of his hand and crying bitterly.

She cried for a long time, until the bright yellow corner of the clothes appeared in front of her eyes, and she suddenly recovered, shrinking her body and backing away.

Fu Xiuyun picked her up from the ground, stared at her bloodless little face, with a confused expression: "You want to leave too?"

Cai Fuya was trembling all over, unable to say a word, only felt that her wrist was pinched by him.

Fu Xiuyun looked at her bleeding fingers, his eyes darkened: "Does it hurt?"

Cai Fuya didn't dare to look at him, tears streaming down her face, she sobbed and shook her head.

"Lie." He said two words coldly, then picked her up by the waist and walked back.

Cai Fuya struggled to think, but was frightened by his cold words: "If you dare to move, maybe you will never see your father and elder brother in this lifetime."

The sister-in-law is gone, but she still has her father, her brother, and her little nephew, who is only three years old. All the things are on her shoulders. She can't resist, dare not resist, and can only tremble and curl up in his arms , letting tears wet his skirt.

After returning to Changchun Palace, Fu Xiuyun called the imperial physician.

Sun Fuzhi bandaged the wound on Cai Fuya's hand, and said in a low voice, "The nail on the middle finger of your mother's right hand is broken, and there is sand and gravel in it, I will pick it out for you with a silver needle, please bear the pain."

Cai Fuya leaned against the head of the bed like a puppet on a string, as if she couldn't feel the pain, she said in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

Sun Fuzhi glanced at her, and said to Fang Fei who was standing beside her, "Go get a basin of hot water, and wash your hands later."

Fang Fei hesitated for a moment before exiting the room.

Sun Fuzhi took out the thinnest silver needle, carefully pierced it into Cai Fuya's fingertips, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about the Cai family, you just need to protect yourself. The princess said that she will rescue you."

Hearing these words, Cai Fuya's silent eyes suddenly lit up, staring at him closely: "You, who are you?"

Sun Fuzhi was still concentrating on picking out the stones in her nails: "My name is Sun Fuzhi, and I work in the imperial hospital. If you have anything to do in the future, you can come to me."

The water in Cai Fuya's eyes flickered: "It's Youyao."

"Well," Sun Fuzhi interrupted her, and put away the silver needle, "the wound on your majesty's hand is not serious, it's just that you have been too sad recently, and your heart is stagnant. Turning around, I will give you a prescription for recuperation, and I hope your majesty will take care of your body." .”

As soon as the words fell, Fang Fei came in with water.

Cai Fuya watched Sun Fuzhi pack up her things, silently suppressed the words in her heart, and turned her eyes to look at the bright sunshine outside the hall, as if a ray of light had entered her heart.

Ling Youyao was worried that Cai Fuya would not be able to bear the blow, so she sent a message to Sun Fuzhi, asking him to find a chance to visit the Changchun Palace. Even if Cai Fuya could not cheer up, at least it would give her hope of surviving.

Since Lushan's family was destroyed, those conspiracies hidden in the dark have gradually surfaced, not only the former queen, but also Cai Fuya, they were all innocently implicated in it.

And behind all this is pointing to one person——

"Princess, Lu Sheng is here." Lu Bao suddenly came in, interrupting her thoughts.

Ling Youyao withdrew her drifting thoughts, got up and walked out: "Where are the others?"

"I'm waiting for you in the flower hall," Lu Bao thought for a while, and couldn't help asking, "Princess, you called Lu Sheng over today, do you have anything to explain?"

"Well, there's one very important thing he needs to do."

After seeing Lu Sheng, Ling Youyao retreated, and even Lu Bao was called down.

Seeing her fight, Lu Sheng couldn't help but become serious: "If there is anything the princess wants to do, just ask, and I will help you do it."

Ling Youyao said: "I will give you 2 taels later, and you can go to the south of the Yangtze River to collect some grain for me. You don't need to buy too much at one time, about five or six hundred catties at a time. In addition, I don't plan to open Qianzhen Pavilion again." Yes, you put up a transfer sign, but don’t rush to sell it, let me know when you meet a suitable price, and I’ll make a decision later.”

Lu Sheng was at a loss when he heard this: "What are you planning to do? Qianzhen Pavilion has just opened not long ago, why are you going to sell it?"

"Because of the current situation, I have to do this." She smiled and did not say clearly.

Lu Sheng tactfully did not ask any further questions, but only asked about going to the south of the Yangtze River.

Ling Youyao thought about it for a while, and said: "There is no rush to go to Jiangnan. I will go there in April. As for the harvested grain, I will find a farmer to settle it on the spot. If there is any change later, I will send someone to tell you."

"it is good."

Ling Youyao explained some more things before Lu Sheng left the palace.

When he returned to Lanhui Courtyard, Fu Mingjue had already returned, and was leaning in his chair to read the newspaper. Hearing her footsteps, he raised his head and looked over: "Are you done?"

Ling Youyao felt that these words were strange, he was the one who should be busy on weekdays, and said: "I'm not busy at all."

Fu Mingjue pulled her over, and said against her temples, "In a few days, I may have to leave the capital for a while."

"what happened?"

Fu Mingjue explained: "Your Majesty previously sent Liu Shu, the servant of the Ministry of War, to inspect the northern border, but he was assassinated in Tongzhou, and his whereabouts are unknown now. According to the informant, the real purpose of his trip was to investigate what King Jing'an said. The mine mentioned. I suspect that Liu Shu may have found something, so he was assassinated."

Ling Youyao was inexplicably flustered: "Can you not go?"

"Now the report of Liu Shu's assassination in Tongzhou has not yet been handed over to Yuqian, whether to stay or not is not up to me to decide. If I leave the capital, don't be impulsive. If you have anything to do, go to elder brother to discuss it first."

Ling Youyao tightly tugged on his sleeve, reluctant to give up, but reluctantly nodded: "I see."
