Hou Ye's palm heart is a black lotus

Chapter 464 Cabinet (Update )
The palace servants looked at each other, and no one dared to step forward and bring bad luck.

But in fact, Concubine Ru also knew that there was no point in asking this now.

What matters is not the source, but the result!
If Your Majesty believes the slander, Cheng Xuan will never have a chance to rise again!
She must find a way to dispel this rumor immediately!

But, it is easier said than done.
Cheng Xuan is a guilty person. She prays and recites scriptures every day, so she has no right to comment on this matter.

The only hope we can have is Your Majesty, don't believe it anyway.

Under normal circumstances, Concubine Ru would not be so nervous because she knew Emperor Mu Wu very well.

Emperor Mu Wu might be angry because Cheng Xuan did something wrong, but he would never believe that he would collude with foreign enemies.

but!
Emperor Mu Wu is now seriously ill in bed and his will is weak. It is inevitable that there will be slander and defamation at this time!

If we say too much, there is no guarantee that Emperor Mu Wu will not be shaken!

What's worse, it's possible that someone might take advantage of Emperor Mu Wu's illness to do something secretly!

"Your Highness, please don't worry. This is a serious matter. The Prime Minister will investigate thoroughly and clear the Second Prince's name!"

After hearing this, Concubine Ru finally calmed down.

She took a deep breath and said, "Go! Go find Lan Xi right away! Tell her that I am not feeling well and ask her to stay with me!"

As a daughter, it is perfectly legitimate for her to take care of her sick mother.

The palace servants did not dare to hesitate and immediately followed the order.

It’s hard to say for others, but Xiao Lanxi has the closest relationship with Concubine Ru, so inviting her here at this time will not arouse anyone’s suspicion.

Concubine Ru was helped back to her bed by the palace servants. She closed her eyes and took a rest. It took her a lot of effort to calm her mind a little.

Her mind was constantly racing, and she thought of all kinds of solutions, but none of them could help Xiao Chengxuan quickly resolve his current predicament.

Finally, Concubine Ru simply gave up and waited anxiously for Xiao Lanxi's arrival. ——She had already regarded this adopted daughter as her backbone since she didn't know when.

Perhaps, Xiao Lanxi could find a way to deal with it?
……

After a while, the palace maid came back.

Concubine Ru became anxious and was about to scold when she saw the familiar figure behind the palace maid.

If it’s not Xiao Lanxi, then who else could it be?
Xiao Lanxi came in a hurry, and was sweating all over in such a cold weather.

"Mother concubine!"

She walked forward quickly, held Concubine Ru's hand, her eyes filled with tears.
"As soon as I heard that something happened to my second brother, I came here immediately! Are you okay?"

Of course it’s not good to be a royal concubine.

The only son was charged with such a crime, and he was only one step away from the death penalty!
She was filled with anger and had no place to vent, so she held Xiao Lanxi tightly and said, "Someone wants to harm him! This is clearly a frame-up! They are trying to put him to death!"

As the imperial concubine spoke, two lines of tears fell.

"Lan Xi, you need to think of a solution quickly! We can't just watch your second brother get killed!"

Xiao Lanxi wiped away her tears and said, "Mother, please don't worry. What if you get sick from worrying? In my opinion, it's best for us to do nothing now."

Concubine Ru was stunned for a moment: "What did you say?"

Xiao Lanxi patiently explained: "I know you are worried about the Second Brother, but in this situation, if you really run around to make excuses for the Second Brother, it will be easier for people to criticize you!"

Concubine Ru's mind was in a mess and she couldn't speak for a long time.

Xiao Lanxi took a deep breath and continued, "Ye Chutang is currently treating my father. All government affairs are being discussed by the Princess and the Cabinet. As for the matter of the jade pendant...my father may not have even heard a word of it!"
