Bai Yueguang, the stand-in for Prince Sick Jiao

Chapter 383 Ambition
An autumn rain completely dissipated the remaining heat, and instantly dragged the capital into the lonely cold autumn.

Cai Fuya is used to sitting in front of the window, watching the flowers and plants in the courtyard from flourishing to withering. Gradually, the small porcelain bottle in her hand became a little hot from her covering.

There is only one last medicine left, take this medicine, everything will be over
She gently stroked her lower abdomen, as if she was saying a final farewell to the child who had no fate.

Yuewei came in with the medicine as usual, with a respectful attitude: "Your Majesty, it's time for you to drink the medicine today."

Cai Fuya withdrew her gaze, took the medicine bowl calmly, but when she was about to drink it down, she asked one more question: "How long will it take for the medicine to finish?"

Yue Wei paused for a moment, then replied: "This servant does not know, when the imperial physician comes to ask for the pulse tomorrow, just ask the imperial physician and he will know."

"En." Cai Fuya responded lightly, raised her head and drank the medicine.

After watching her finish drinking the medicine, Yue Wei didn't notice anything unusual, put away her things, and left the bedroom.Who would have thought that at night, Cai Fuya would suddenly suffer from unbearable abdominal pain, and blood would overflow from her skirt, Yue Wei panicked and hurriedly invited the imperial physician.

Not long after, Yao Xingzheng came in a hurry, and after showing it to Cai Fuya, he realized that she had eaten something that slipped the tire by mistake, and the child might not be able to keep it!

Without any hesitation, Yuewei hurriedly went to Chengming Hall to communicate.

When Fu Xiuyun arrived at Changchun Palace, Cai Fuya had already passed out from the pain, her small face was pale, like a broken puppet, lying motionless on the bed.

Yao Xingzheng sighed regretfully, and said: "Your Majesty, I am incompetent, unable to keep the child in the womb of the empress, please forgive me."

Fu Xiuyun wasn't too moved. From the very beginning, he wouldn't let Cai Fuya give birth to this child. Now that the child is gone, he has saved a lot of trouble.

However, he still asked in accordance with the usual practice, such as: How did the child die?What did Cai Fuya eat today and so on.

The palace people knelt all over the ground, all with their heads down, not daring to say a word.

At this time, Yue Wei stood up and said: "Your Majesty, your mother has lost her appetite recently, she only ate some pumpkin and millet porridge today, and she didn't eat anything else."

Yao Xingzheng answered: "I have checked your mother's meals today, and there is nothing unusual."

Fu Xiuyun had a headache again, and pressed his brows together and said, "Apart from these? Is there anything else?"

Yue Wei thought about it carefully, and answered: "My Lady will also drink anti-fetal medicine in addition to her daily meals, but that is the prescription prescribed by Imperial Physician Yao himself, so there should be nothing wrong with it."

Suddenly mentioning this, Yao Xingzheng felt inexplicably flustered, he always felt that today's matter was not easy.

Before he had time to think about it, Fu Xiuyun had someone bring up the medicine residue.

Yao Xing was gathering his thoughts, looking through the medicinal residues, and sure enough, he found a problem inside.But this prescription was prescribed by him himself, and Yuewei is also one of his own people, so what went wrong?
Mr. Li has sharp eyes, and immediately saw something wrong, and asked: "But is there something wrong with it?"

Yao Xingzheng suddenly returned to his senses, and nodded: "Return to Your Majesty, this medicine—"

Only halfway through the conversation, Fu Xiuyun interrupted him, and casually pointed to the imperial physician to come over: "Go and have a look."

The imperial physician who was named stepped forward, picked up the dregs of the medicine, sniffed it closely, and his expression changed accordingly: "Your Majesty, there is a little Guiwei mixed in, and it is because of this that Concubine Yu's miscarriage is due to it!"

Having said that, the matter became clear—someone added anti-pregnancy medicine to Cai Fuya's medicine.

And who is that person?
Yuewei is the maid who serves Cai Fuya personally, everything has to go through her hands, and she is also responsible for decocting the medicine every day, except her, no one can get close to her.

In the end, Yuewei was taken to the Criminal Justice Department, and never came out again.

When Cai Fuya woke up, there was a new face beside her. It was a fair and lovely court lady with curved eyebrows. She looked young, about fifteen or sixteen years old. Her name was Tan Xin.

"Your Majesty, you're awake!" Tan Xin helped her up, and asked again with concern, "Do you still hurt? Do you want the imperial doctor to come in and take a look?"

"No need," Cai Fuya shook her head, after the child was gone, she felt a lot more relaxed, "Where's Yuewei?"

Speaking of Yue Wei, a trace of unnaturalness flashed across Tan Xin's face: "Go back to your mother, Yue Wei caused your miscarriage, and His Majesty has already dealt with it. From now on, the slaves will take good care of you."

Just such a simple sentence explained everything that happened last night.

Cai Fuya knew that Yuewei was innocent, but in detail, she was not innocent.Yuewei is a member of the Cai family, her child "died" in Yuewei's hands, grandpa can't blame anyone else.

Her brother and nephew have already left the capital, and she has nothing to worry about from now on
The news of Cai Fuya's miscarriage quickly reached Cai Yuan's ears.

"I thought she would be obedient, but I didn't expect that like her brother, she hides a rebellious heart!" Although Cai Yuan knew that this child would not be born, he still felt disgusted by Cai Fuya's self-assertive behavior.

Cai Qi was listening, and could only persuade him to calm down: "Father, calm down, Aya didn't want to enter the palace, and the child is gone, so it's useless to worry about it."

"This matter did come sooner than I expected, but now that the matter has come to this point, our plan has to be brought forward." Cai Yuan calmed down and asked suddenly, "I heard that Shen Xuhuai is still investigating the matter in Tongzhou?"

"That's right, he wanted to reverse the case for Fu Mingjue, and he has been holding on to Tongzhou."

Cai Yuan's eyes suddenly sank, flashing a trace of decisive killing intent: "In that case, let's start with Tongzhou first."

Seeing the gloom in his eyes, Cai Qi couldn't help being shocked, and hurriedly lowered his head: "Yes, father."

As the days come to an end, the weather becomes colder and colder. When you open the window in the morning, you can see the thin frost condensed on the corners of the eaves, reflecting the crystal brilliance in the sunlight.

The sycamore tree in Zongzheng Temple has withered and yellowed, and the fallen leaves are falling with the rustling autumn wind. It is now late autumn.

Feeling the coolness, Ling Youyao subconsciously burrowed into Fu Mingjue's arms, her voice was a bit sleepy and soft: "It's not time yet, sleep a little longer"

Fu Mingjue closed the window, lowered his head and rubbed her cheek: "Well, go to sleep."

The sky outside has already brightened, and even if you close your eyes, you can still feel the scorching heat of the light.Ling Youyao lay in his arms in a daze, and murmured: "Are you waiting for him to come?"

The person she was talking about was the little eunuch who came to deliver meals every day, but Fu Mingjue was not waiting for that meal, but Jiang Zhou who was dressed as a little eunuch.

The little eunuch was called Zhongxuan, and he was the apprentice of the father-in-law who was in charge of Shangshan Division, and he took a lot of money from Ling Youyao.

About a month ago, when he came again, he knelt down and pleaded guilty to Fu Mingjue, saying that he was Jiang Zhou.

Ling Youyao stared at him for a long time, she was no different from Zhongxuan in terms of appearance and figure, but her voice changed, it was not sharp and long, but sonorous and powerful.

At that moment, she knew that this was the face-changing technique that Zilan once said.

Fu Mingjue said: "Yes, when he came last time, he mentioned the matter of Tongzhou. I thought about it for a long time, and I probably guessed what Cai Yuan wanted to do."

Ling Youyao rubbed her eyes and asked, "What is it?"

"After Song Yinian's death, the magistrate of Tongzhou changed to a new person, and that person was Cai Yuan's disciple. It is almost winter, and the horse thieves wandering in the north will take advantage of this time to go south to plunder every year. Although the government will send troops to suppress them, the horse thieves He is vigilant, and if he doesn't catch them all, he will go back and forth. Cai Yuan planted his people in Tongzhou, presumably planning to do something."

Tongzhou is located in a strategic location, once it is lost, the consequences will be unimaginable, that's why Fu Mingjue is so worried.

He is still wearing a sinful body, the soldier talisman has been taken back, there are [-] Xuanyu Guards and Imperial Guards, plus [-] cavalry from the military camp outside the city, the strength is not small.

But Cai Yuan never did anything he was not sure of. He dared to hoard weapons and gunpowder in Tongzhou blatantly, so he had a countermeasure.

Fu Mingjue continued: "The weapons hidden at the bottom of Guiya Valley are only part of them. They did this to trap the Xuanyu Guards and hold the capital in their own hands. From the inside out, I guess the next thing is It's time for the North."

Ling Youyao's mind was a little confused, and she speculated: "They want to deal with King Jing'an?"

"Well, it should be."

Ling Youyao felt a chill on her back: "King Jing'an has been guarding the northern border for many years. If something happens to him, then Beidi—" She suddenly realized: "Is it possible that the Cai family has contacts with Beidi?!"

Fu Mingjue didn't deny it: "Yuan Yuxuan came to Beijing early that year to meet a person. Although he didn't find out who that person was at that time, but according to what happened later, I think Cai Yuan is pretty good."

After hearing this, Ling Youyao lost all sleepiness.

She underestimated Cai Yuan's ambition, and even underestimated his courage.He designed to frame Fu Mingjue and let Xuan Yuwei bear the name of rebel army. When the soldiers came to the city, he could use this as an excuse to prevent Xuan Yuwei from going to battle. It was really a good strategy.

Fu Mingjue smoothed her brows, and comforted: "Don't be afraid, no matter what happens, I will protect you."

Ling Youyao buried herself in his arms, and after a long silence, she said, "I'm not afraid, I'm just afraid that you will leave."

Fu Mingjue was slightly taken aback, and leaning against her forehead, he said: "Maybe there will be wars in the future, but you have to believe that I will not leave you alone. Even if I leave, I will definitely come back."

Ling Youyao looked at the flickering light in his eyes, faint but bright, she moved her lips, and finally only answered "Yes".

The frost on the eaves gradually melted, and the crystal white color merged into the blue tiles, and the wind had stopped.

In fact, she wanted to tell Fu Mingjue one thing, but she didn't know where to say it, she was afraid that he would believe it, and she was also afraid that he would not believe it.Such a strange and chaotic thing, if anyone hears it, they will probably think she is talking nonsense, right?
But these are facts.

After staying here for too long, she has somewhat forgotten her original self, and it is getting more and more difficult to tell which one is the real her.

But she didn't say anything, she just hugged Fu Mingjue tightly, yearning for the last trace of warmth.
