Wangfu little dumb wife

Chapter 716 The Empress Is Critically Ill (2 More)
Yang Xueru didn't get well with Yang Shoufu, and didn't care about the chest injury that hadn't healed yet, so she hurried to find Song Wei after throwing away her maid.

Seeing her, Song Wei was very surprised, "Why did Miss Yang come to the door in person?"

Yang Xueru's face was full of worry, and she cried when she spoke, "Song Shaoqing, please, please save Your Highness!"

Seeing her knees softening and wanting to kneel down, Wen Wan hurriedly helped her up, "Miss Yang's grandfather is the chief minister of the dynasty. In terms of power, no one in the civil and military court can compare to him. Why is Miss Yang?" Instead of asking him, come to ask my family's husband instead?"

Yang Xueru was immediately stopped.

She didn't think much about it before, but now that she thinks about it, Song Wei is a princeling, and her grandfather, Yang Shoufu, has been paving the way for the second prince behind his back.

Yang Shoufu and Song Wei are politically hostile. As the granddaughter of the Yang family, he rushed to beg Song Wei rashly.

However, if Song Wei was not asked, from his grandfather's standpoint, he would wish that the crown prince would be deposed because of this.

She couldn't imagine that the noble and elegant young prince was deposed and reduced to a common man.

He was born to be superior, and he was born to wear a dragon robe to rule the world.

Thinking of this, Yang Xueru became more and more determined to save the prince. She lowered her head slightly and expressed the most sincere thoughts in her heart, "Master Song must know that the Yang family supports the second prince. Now that this incident happened, it means What is it, Master Song knows better than me, if you go to ask my grandfather at this time, the probability that he will help is very small, I can only come to ask you, anyway, His Highness is my fiance, I can't just watch him have an accident."

Song Wei reacted slightly, "There are many people who don't want the prince to have an accident even more than you. Miss Yang, don't be impatient. There will always be a solution to the matter."

This sounds a bit perfunctory.

Knowing that Song Wei couldn't trust her, Yang Xueru was impatient, but she couldn't get angry at the other party, so she could only suppress her temper, "The one who caused me to be injured by an arrow that day was not His Highness, but Qi Xuan, the girl who will soon become my sister-in-law."

The belated truth made Song Wei's eyes freeze for a moment.

No wonder Zhao Xi embraced him without hesitation that day.

Qi Xuan is from the empress's family, she hurt Yang Xueru, once Yang Shoufu made a big fuss, it would soon rise to a battle between the two families, and then it would turn into a life-and-death battle between the two factions.

Returning to his thoughts, Song Wei looked at her, "Even if the person who hurt you that day was not the prince, what does that mean?"

Yang Xueru said: "Isn't this obvious? A girl can put a blame on the prince with her hands. Someone must be following the gourd to trap the prince and want to put him to death."

Song Wei laughed softly, "Then Miss Yang thinks that someone who hates the crown prince thought of such a trick?"

"This..." Yang Xueru was suddenly at a loss for words, then frowned and said, "It's definitely not my grandfather!"

Killing the king, once it is confirmed, is a serious crime to exterminate the nine clans. She does not deny that the grandfather in charge of the cabinet has some ambitions, but this level of ambition is absolutely impossible!

Song Wei chased away the guests politely, "Miss Yang, please go back. Your Highness will take care of it. You were injured a few days ago. Now you should rest and recuperate, and you shouldn't work too hard."

Yang Xueru became anxious, "Master Song, do you not trust me, or my grandfather?"

Song Wei smiled, "I only believe in facts."

"You..." Yang Xueru was furious, but she didn't know how to continue communicating with someone like Song Wei who didn't like him, so she had to leave angrily.

The couple sat down again, with gentle and dignified expressions, "Miss Yang said earlier that the person who hurt her that day was Miss Qi, but the crown prince took all the responsibility on himself. Could someone else find out about this and act like a cat? You want to put blame on the crown prince for making such a move against Emperor Guangxi?"

Song Wei couldn't make a conclusion about this kind of inference, and just shook his head, "Yuan Bao has brought people to investigate, and I believe there will be results soon."

-

Because Emperor Guangxi was seriously injured and unable to move back to Beijing, everyone had to camp in the paddock before waking up.

The dark clouds in the sky have not dissipated, and the wind and rain came suddenly that night. Dozens of large and small tents and horse sheds were all washed by the cold rain wrapped in coolness.

The next day did not clear up, and the weather was still gloomy and oppressive. The ministers and workers went to the outside of Emperor Guangxi's tent early, and were stopped by the inner guards just like yesterday.

Everyone could only stretch their necks and poke forward. Whether they were hoping that the emperor would wake up to take charge of the overall situation, or hope that he would just die and make a big change from now on, is not known.

Eunuch Cui just fed the medicine to Emperor Guangxi. He heard that the ministers were waiting outside, so he had no choice but to come out and repeat what he said yesterday, saying that His Majesty is still in a coma. Let the adults go back first. What can you say? Wait until His Majesty wakes up.

Everyone was running in vain, chatting in low voices and leaving gradually.

Eunuch Cui stood outside concentrating for a long while, then sighed, turned around and went in to continue serving.

-

Eunuch Sanbao originally wanted to wait for the emperor to wake up to clarify for the prince himself, but Emperor Guangxi did not move after waiting all night. He was worried that the little master would suffer in the clan mansion, so he simply packed up his things and hurried back to Beijing.

Fearing that the master would not be used to living there, Eunuch Sanbao didn't go to the clan's mansion immediately. He went back to the East Palace first, and carefully packed the two big burdens, all of which were Zhao Xi's personal clothes and the books he usually liked to read.

With a bundle on one shoulder, he had locked the Chengming Hall and was about to go to the clan mansion when he saw Eunuch Mu coming in a hurry.

Eunuch Sanbao was terribly frightened by yesterday's battle, and seeing anyone with a bad face now makes his heart churn.

"What's the matter? You put on a dead face as soon as you come here!" Facing Eunuch Mu, he vented his dissatisfaction.

As if there was something unspeakable, Eunuch Mu pondered for a long time before opening his mouth, "There is something, I have never dared to send a letter to the paddock. On the second day after you set off, the empress accidentally fell into the water, and the water in the pool was cold for nine days. Xiangbian has not recovered, and the imperial doctor diagnosed that there are not many days left."

Eunuch Sanbao was so startled that he didn't know that his shoulders had fallen off, so he just stared at Eunuch Mu in a daze, "You, what are you talking about?"

Eunuch Mu's eyes were red, and he kept slapping his mouth, "It's all my fault that I failed to fulfill His Highness's instructions before leaving, and take good care of your mother, I deserve death..."

Eunuch Sanbao slumped on the ground, his brain was empty, and his eyes were dull.

Why is everything piled together?The emperor was assassinated, the prince was detained, the queen was critically ill...

He didn't know what to say when he went to the clan mansion to see the prince.

Already in prison, if His Highness learns that the empress is critically ill, he will collapse immediately!

……

Putting down the burden, Eunuch Sanbao followed Eunuch Mu to the Kunning Palace. As Eunuch Mu said, Empress Qi collapsed from illness in just a few days, her chin was sharpened, her cheekbones protruded, and there was hardly any excess pimples on her cheeks. Meat, described as haggard like an old woman, there is no half of the image of a graceful and noble queen on weekdays.

She coughed badly, her chest was rumbling like a bellows, and she had a lot of phlegm. Every time she coughed, someone had to cover her with a veil, then clean up the dirt and rinse her mouth.

Jingzhe, Nianchun, and Xiudong took turns serving them day and night these few days, everyone was tired, but they didn't dare not cheer up.

Jing Zhe was the first to know that the prince was imprisoned in the clan's mansion, so she only dared to cry secretly in her heart, she didn't dare to say a word to the other servants of Kunning Palace, and she didn't dare to reveal anything to the Queen.

When seeing Father-in-law Sanbao, Jing Zhe almost couldn't hold back his emotions, left the job of collecting phlegm, and ran out crying.

Father-in-law Sanbao gave Nianchun and Xiudong a few words, and walked out the door.

Jing Zhe was crouching on a plum tree and weeping badly.

"If you have anything to say, girl, you might as well tell me."

After serving the crown prince for so many years, Eunuch Sanbao is also a keen eye, he immediately saw that Jing Zhe was hiding something on his mind.

Jing Zhe raised his teary eyes and looked at him, "Have you visited His Highness?"

Father-in-law Sanbao choked up a bit, and turned his head, "Not yet."

"Why, why did so many things happen?" Jing Zhe's sharp nails were digging at the withered bark of the plum tree, and she only hated herself for not being able to take good care of the empress, let alone saving His Highness.

"I don't know." Father-in-law Sanbao is also full of self-blame, but at this time, someone must provoke the leader. He can't cry in front of Jing Zhe, which makes her feel that she has no backbone, so she calms down her emotions and says, "I'm going to go in a while. The clan mansion is over, do you have anything to tell me?"

Jing Zhe wiped away tears, "For me... oh no, say something to His Highness on behalf of Your Majesty, to reassure him, there must be a way to come out again, and also, don't tell him about Your Majesty, don't let Your Highness worry about Kunning Palace .”

"I understand." Eunuch Sanbao nodded, and sighed silently in his heart, "Don't cry, tears can't solve any problems now, you must cheer up and think of a way to save His Highness."
