There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 193 The Concubine Needs an Edict

At the dining table, Tang Wanning stuffed a small crystal bun into her mouth and said in admiration.

"I used to be in the northwest, and I got up early, and my father and mother were very strict with me!"

"No one cares now, I'm lazy all over!"

"Is it because the capital is too cold? Or is it too warm in the house?" Xia Houjue teased her.

"No, it's because there are too many delicious foods, and I'm too greedy!" She giggled twice, and Xia Houjue's face softened a lot.

After breakfast, Tang Wanning took the opportunity to dismiss the palace servants and asked Xia Houjue.

"What's going on with the emperor? Wasn't it fine yesterday?"

"Stroke!" Xia Houjue didn't hide it from her.

"So you woke up in the middle of the night today because of this, no wonder I didn't know about it!" She frowned, thinking about whether stroke is a disease that can be cured, and whether it was possible to be cured in ancient times.

After thinking for a while, she came to a conclusion.

"I'm afraid, there is little hope!"

"For now, we should block the news, try our best..."

"I know that once this matter is leaked out, the Queen's party will definitely jump over the wall in a hurry, and there may be chaos in the court." Xia Houjue narrowed his eyes, with an indescribable coldness faintly flashing in his eyes.

"But..." Tang Wanning hesitated to speak.

"It probably won't be long, but you should have made arrangements, so I don't have to worry about it!" She lowered her head, her voice became smaller and smaller, and in the end she only left him with a delicate bun.

Xia Houjue's heart skipped a beat suddenly: "Worried?"

"Wanwan, are you worried about me?" The coldness in his eyes faded instantly, replaced by gentleness, enthusiasm, surprise, and a little bit of malice.

"I'm not, I don't, don't talk nonsense!"

"How does Gu feel, you have it, and I didn't talk nonsense?"

Tang Wanning gritted her teeth and raised her head, confidently said, "Don't think about it, if you say no, you don't have it!"

"I also want to ask you, do you know how long you haven't been in the backyard? Do you know what they talk about you behind your back?"

They were referring to the women in the backyard, his future harem concubines.

"I know! It's just that I can't do it alone? I'm going to age before I'm young..." Just look at the dishes he ate recently, all of them are 'pork loin, deer antler, tiger penis' and so on. .

Hehe, there is really nothing wrong with these women, they are figuring these things out all day long.

"They are all married to you by the media, so you can't stay in the cold like this forever!"

"So what about being neglected? Gu has already asked the Meng family to add a three-component rule for everyone. They are well-clothed and well-fed, and they eat well and wear well. Gu has never beaten or scolded them. Are they not satisfied?"

Without favor, he can use a lot of material to make up for it. This is not an irresponsible act. How many other women in the backyard can't even die.

He's good enough here, isn't he?

Tang Waning: "..." This man neglected his little wife, but he was justified in the same way, and even had a condescending feeling, as if giving something to others.

It's also really... wonderful.

But it's a little strange, why can't I suddenly despise him in my heart?

……

After the second day of junior high school, this year is over, and the excitement in the palace will temporarily come to an end.

However, Emperor Jingyuan's illness did not intend to stop, and after a few days of relapse, it continued to worsen.

By the tenth day of the new year, he couldn't even speak fully.

"Li...Li Baoyuan! Help me up!"

"The slave is here!"

Li Baoyuan hurried forward to support Emperor Jingyuan.

He wanted to sit up, but no matter how hard he tried, even if he put all his weight on Li Baoyuan, he still couldn't get up.

'Not reconciled!Not reconciled! ' He gritted his teeth, the veins on his face flushed.

"I... don't want to die, I still have an unfulfilled wish! I don't want to die, cough, cough..." Before he finished speaking, he bent down and coughed, his face was purple and he seemed to be coughing up his intestines.

"Medicine! Medicine!" Emperor Jing Yuan stretched out his hands like dead tree bark, and fumbled desperately at the head of the bed.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" Li Baoyuan quickly persuaded.

"You have already taken two red pills and one golden pill today, you can't take any more!"

"No! You dog slave, I still want to live forever, and I want to become a fairy, how could I die!" He mumbled a lot.

He even threw a tea cup at Li Baoyuan with all his might.

Li Baoyuan didn't dare to hide, so he could only take a hard hit: "Your Majesty!"

"Even if you beat the slave to death, you can't take that medicine anymore, that poison will kill you!"

"What poison?"

A voice suddenly appeared, making Li Baoyuan a little at a loss.

Looking back, it turned out to be the queen, dragging a delicate red sandalwood box in her hand, walking slowly towards here.

"The Queen Mother?"

"Why, don't you recognize me?" The queen smiled triumphantly.

"You dare not!" Li Baoyuan knelt down with a plop, wondering in his heart, didn't His Royal Highness blockade the Jinhua Palace, how did she get in?
"The concubine sees the emperor!" The queen ignored him and saluted the emperor directly.

Emperor Jing Yuan lay on the bed with his eyes closed, not wanting to look at her or talk to her.

"emperor!"

The queen sat down on the side of the bed gently, caressing his chest softly.

"Your Majesty, don't be disappointed. Those imperial physicians are just trying to scare people. They have already been bribed by Xia Houjue. They just want to kill you so that they can ascend the throne as soon as possible!"

"Yan'er and I are different. Your majesty is the only support for our mother and son. We cannot do without you!" While speaking, she couldn't stop crying, she looked old and pitiful.

"This is an antidote specially developed by my concubine. As long as you take it, the poison in your body will be released. You will still be the same as before. You are the emperor of the world and the concubine's reliance!"

The queen was persuasive and persuasive, pouring word by word into Emperor Jing Yuan's mind.

Li Baoyuan was anxious on the sidelines, but he didn't dare to act rashly, so he could only stay where he was and listen carefully.

"Really...?" Emperor Jing Yuan was dubious.

"Of course it's true, don't you believe me?" The queen picked up a black pill and ate it with a smile.

"Look, this is the antidote, it's a great tonic. The concubine has already tried the medicine for you, so you should hurry up and take it!"

"Well, we have the empress!" Emperor Jing Yuan was finally relieved.

"That's right, this concubine is your wife, so it's impossible for me to harm you?"

The queen smiled and handed a cup of tea and a pill to Emperor Jingyuan's lips.

He didn't doubt it anymore, he ate it in one gulp, and even drank the cup of tea in one gulp.

It's just that he didn't notice that there was an extremely vicious smile on the Queen's lips, and that eyes were as cold as a millennium's ice, as terrifying as a ghost from hell.

"My lord, I'm sorry!"

"The concubine needs an imperial edict. This is the concubine's last hope. Don't blame me!"
