The concubine is addicted to the world

Chapter 352, waiting to wake up

The palace was shrouded in a layer of dazzling red. The wedding was very lively, and almost all the civil and military officials came to join in, but they didn't know that it was the calm before the storm.

Empress Dowager Lu raised her eyebrows and glanced at Shi Chen, then squinted at Nanny Lu, "In another hour, after the new couple is married, we will start!"

"Please don't worry, Queen Mother, everything is well arranged, just waiting for the Queen Mother's order."

Empress Dowager Lu's eyelids kept twitching, she always felt that something was about to happen, her heart was beating too, her palms were full of sweat.

"Success or failure is determined by one move, and we can't drag it on any longer. Ai's body is getting worse day by day. The emperor took advantage of Emperor Dongchu challenging Ai's bottom line time and time again. If Ai's front foot has just left, and the lineage of King Chen, he must break!"

Empress Dowager Lu could see clearly that only one of Lu Linen and Lu Xi could live.

"The empress dowager has been planning for so many years, how could the emperor be able to defeat it in a short period of time, just like this time, when the empress dowager gave an order, the emperor was forced to nod in agreement."

In Mother Lu's mind, Emperor Yusheng is by no means an opponent of Empress Dowager Lu, and he will definitely lose.

"I hope." The Empress Dowager Lu changed into a bright yellow court dress embroidered with birds and phoenixes, and a few gold hairpins were inserted obliquely on her head, adding a touch of majesty.

Empress Dowager Lu stood in front of the mirror, looked at her body and nodded with satisfaction, but her body shook quickly, and her mind felt dizzy for a while.

"Queen Mother, what's the matter with you?" Mother Lu asked with concern, holding Queen Mother Lu's arm.

Empress Dowager Lu shook her head, "Perhaps I didn't sleep well last night, maybe I haven't worn this phoenix crown for a long time, it's fine."

Nanny Lu felt relieved, "After paying respects to the old servant, I will invite the imperial physician to come and have a look."

Empress Dowager Lu nodded, "It's getting late, let's go."

The palace seemed to be going smoothly, but in fact it was turbulent. Emperor Yusheng was sitting in a high position with a faint smile on his face, watching the two newcomers finish their worship.

Soon there were colorful fireworks in the sky, crackling and rendering the whole sky into a colorful scene, which was very eye-catching and attracted many people to stop and admire.

Empress Dowager Lu gave some instructions, and was helped back to Xining Palace, her mind felt as if it had been blown apart, and she wanted to sleep groggyly.

Soon Nanny Lu invited the imperial physician, and she was shocked when she checked the pulse.

"Back to the empress dowager, the empress dowager has been fascinated for a long time."

Empress Dowager Lu tightly twisted her eyes, her eyes were sharp as if she wanted to eat people, "What did you say!"

The imperial doctor quickly repeated, "The empress dowager has been very lethargic these past few days, her appetite has been disturbed, and she can't sleep well at night. It seems that this pulse has been in full swing for seven or eight days."

Empress Dowager Lu had a gloomy face, but she was lethargic in the past seven or eight days. She thought it was because of her heavy body, so she didn't pay much attention.

Unexpectedly, she was given a psychedelic drug quietly by someone, and it lasted for seven or eight days.
For seven or eight days, Empress Dowager Lu chewed these words repeatedly, her mind spinning rapidly.

At this moment, a woman in pink came in with an unhappy expression on her face.

Empress Dowager Lu narrowed her eyes, and her heart was full of turmoil, "Ya Ruo, where have you been? Why don't you see me today."

Princess Yaruo shook her head, "No, nothing."

Seeing Empress Dowager Lu watching closely, Princess Yaruo couldn't hide it, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and said, "Yaruo has been looking for her cousin all night. She thought she would come when she got married, but she didn't expect her cousin to be there."

"Lu Linen?" The Empress Dowager Lu's eyes turned sharp, and her mind became dizzy with anger.

"Grandmother?"

"Princess!" The imperial doctor suddenly stopped Princess Yaruo, and pointed to the sachet hanging on Princess Yaruo's waist.

"Can you show this sachet to Weichen?"

Princess Yaruo was at a loss, took off the sachet and handed it to the imperial physician.

The imperial doctor lowered his head and sniffed the sachet, his expression changed drastically, he opened the sachet and poured out the spices inside, and found a small grass.

"Imperial Physician Yu, this is?" Empress Dowager Lu clenched her fists tightly, she could probably guess something, seeing that Imperial Physician Yu's expression changed.

The imperial doctor Yu took a deep breath, "Returning to the empress dowager, this is one of the raw materials of the phantom powder, Mabo Cao, which conflicts with the decoction that the empress dowager must take every day, which makes the empress dowager dizzy and weak every day. If the time goes on like this, he will be unconscious for a long time, there is no cure for this medicine for the time being, it only takes a few days to force it, he can only maintain it with acupuncture and moxibustion."

"Nonsense!" Princess Yaruo was taken aback, "How is this possible, how could this princess harm the emperor's grandmother!"

Empress Dowager Lu glanced at Princess Yaruo, "Yaruo, Aijia asked you who gave you this sachet, has anyone touched it?"

Empress Dowager Lu rubbed her forehead, feeling dizzy, "Quick, take this thing away!"

"Yes!" Nanny Lu hurriedly took the things away, and ordered someone to open the window for some air.

The Empress Dowager Lu breathed a few breaths, her head was very dizzy, and Princess Yaruo, who squinted and stunned, was furious.

"Hurry up, Ya Ruo! You are being used!"

Princess Yaruo stared blankly at Empress Dowager Lu, with tears streaming from her eyes, a little at a loss, "Grandmother, it's not Yaruo, how could Yaruo harm the emperor's grandmother, this sachet is Yaruo No one can touch the personal belongings except the maid who is close to her."

Princess Yaruo's legs went limp, and she knelt directly under the Empress Dowager Lu's knees.

Empress Dowager Lu pursed her lips, "Think about it yourself, have you ever met anyone in the past few days, you must explain it carefully, and don't hide a word!"

Empress Dowager Lu gritted her teeth tightly so as not to let herself fall asleep.

Princess Yaruo bit her lip, her mind was in a mess, but the maid behind her had a flash of inspiration.

"Say it!" Empress Dowager Lu pointed at the servant girl.

The servant girl was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "I remember that the princess went to visit the concubine a few days ago, and the concubine asked the princess to bring a few words to the eldest prince, but because she was in a hurry to go, she accidentally bumped into someone and fell The sachet, and then I went back to find it."

Princess Yaruo also remembered this, and her eyes turned cold, "Don't talk nonsense, it won't happen, how could my cousin harm the emperor's grandmother, I definitely won't."

Empress Dowager Lu's lips were almost bitten, and the smell of blood spread from the corner of her mouth, so as not to let herself fall asleep and regain a trace of reason.

"Yaruo!" The Empress Dowager Lu closed her eyes tightly, she knew who was plotting against her without mentioning it, she was extremely disappointed.

Princess Yaruo shook her shoulders in shock, "Grandmother, Yaruo really doesn't know anything, this matter must have nothing to do with my cousin..."

"Cousin?" Empress Dowager Lu sneered, "Lu Linen is your eldest brother, how did you become your cousin, you actually have such thoughts about Lu Linen, Ya Ruo, Ya Ruo, you really disappointed Aijia, it was a waste of Aijia Trusting you so much, you were actually framed by the Ai family in collusion with Lu Linen!"

Empress Dowager Lu felt drowsy for a while, but her expression was extremely angry, but her tone was weak.

"Physician Yu, apply the needle!"

Imperial Physician Yu was stunned for a moment, "Empress Dowager, you must not apply acupuncture if you are impatient and impatient. If the Qi and blood flow backwards, a little carelessness will cause massive bleeding."

Empress Dowager Lu gritted her teeth tightly, "Now I have no choice but to give acupuncture!"

Imperial physician Yu had no choice but to take out acupuncture from the medicine box, walked behind Empress Dowager Lu, groped for the acupuncture points on Empress Dowager Lu's head, and a silver needle slowly sank into Empress Dowager Lu's temples.

The Empress Dowager Lu gritted her teeth and remained silent, with bead-sized beads of sweat constantly oozing from her forehead.

Princess Yaruo covered her lips tightly in surprise, almost exclaiming.

After a long time, Imperial Physician Yu let go of his hand, and Empress Dowager Lu's eyes suddenly became much clearer.

"Simply find out in time, rest for a few days and you'll be fine, don't get excited," said the Imperial Physician.

"Well, let's go down and wait first." The Empress Dowager Lu waved her hand, dismissing Imperial Physician Yu.

"Yes!"

After the imperial physician left, Princess Yaruo came back to her senses and moved her body forward.

"Grandmother, if Ya is not filial, I beg Grandmother to punish her severely."

Empress Dowager Lu waved her hand, "Go down too, we will discuss this matter later."

"Grandmother?" Princess Yaruo wanted to say something, but seeing the angry and impatient look on Empress Dowager Lu's face, she shut up embarrassingly and retreated.

"Queen Mother, the princess is probably being used by someone, and it must not be the princess' doing it." Mother Lu comforted, she knew better than anyone else how much the Queen Mother Lu loved Princess Yaruo. Betrayed her own grandmother who raised her by herself?

Empress Dowager Lu sneered, "Of course the Ai family knows that Ya Ruo can't do anything, it's because the Ai family has underestimated the abilities of these two people, Mother Lu, send someone to see the son of the world, I'm afraid it will not be peaceful tonight .”

"Yes!"

After about half an hour, Nanny Lu walked in in panic.

"The queen mother is not well. Just now, General Cheng sent someone to report that the eldest prince sent troops to encircle and encircle General Cheng with tens of thousands of horsemen. Before our people had time to resist, a lieutenant general and many soldiers surrendered to the general." Prince."

Empress Dowager Lu clenched her fists tightly, "Did Lu Linen lead the troops to encircle and suppress General Cheng?"

Nanny Lu nodded.

"It's unreasonable, send someone to tell Lu Linen that if you want Lu Ning and Xinyang to survive, then surrender, otherwise they will die without a place to bury them!"

Empress Dowager Lu was furious for a moment, and she suppressed the fishy sweetness in her throat. The interception of General Cheng's soldiers and horses must have been done by Qi Yao.

Empress Dowager Lu couldn't believe that Qi Yao actually gave soldiers and horses to Lu Linen. What kind of friendship made Qi Yao help Lu Linen like this.

Originally, General Cheng entered Shengjing under the guise of the Qing emperor. As long as Qi Yao dared to show up, the Empress Dowager Lu would immediately send someone to bite Qi Yao's evil intentions. At that time, there would definitely be a riot. Without the Empress Dowager Lu's intervention, even the common people would not let him go Qi Yao.

At that time, Qi Yao will be forced to retreat to Dayong. Without Qi Yao's support, Emperor Yusheng will be an ant in the hands of Empress Dowager Lu, and let her slaughter him.

Unexpectedly, Qi Yao actually gave the soldiers to Lu Linen. Lu Linen has the status of the great prince of Dayong, and his status adapts. If there is a riot, it is not necessarily who will bite back.

General Cheng was stopped outside Shengjing, and the empress dowager inland in Shengjing really didn't have many soldiers and horses on hand, but she didn't know how many soldiers and horses Qi Yao had left in Shengjing or the palace.

After much deliberation, Empress Dowager Lu must let General Cheng's troops enter Shengjing.

She didn't believe it anymore, with Lu Ning, Princess Xinyang and Emperor Yusheng, Lu Linen would not compromise!

"Look at the concubine, and immediately send troops to surround the princess mansion. No one is allowed to go out for half a step. Anyone who violates the order will be killed without mercy!"

Empress Dowager Lu almost pushed back the needle on her head, and took a deep breath to hold back.

"The old slave will go and order."

After a while, a guard said at the door, "Empress Dowager, please hurry up."

"Present it." The Empress Dowager Lu was weak, as if she had exhausted all her strength, and opened her eyes with difficulty.

Holding the [-]-mile express document in his hand, his hand was trembling constantly.

"This"

"It's not good, Empress Dowager, the assassins just entered the palace, and now the whole Xining Palace is surrounded." Mother Lu was stopped before she went out, and returned all the way back to the original place, "The emperor also ordered, and I am nervous right now. Allow in but not out."

The Empress Dowager Lu was trembling all over. It was because she underestimated the brothers and sisters Lu Ning and Lu Linen too much, "Everyone has been stopped, so there is no one going to the Princess Mansion?"

Nanny Lu nodded, "Not only that, but just now I secretly reported that His Royal Highness Chen Wang was taken away from the prison and his whereabouts are unknown. The son was drunk and never appeared in Qiankun Palace."

Empress Dowager Lu finally let out a wow, and fell onto the bed with a trembling body, with blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.

"Go and summon the hidden guards and kill the emperor!" The Empress Dowager Lu said with some uneasiness.

Nanny Lu was startled, "Queen Mother!"

"Kill Lu Ning! Kill the emperor, at all costs!" The Empress Dowager Lu clenched her teeth tightly, holding on tightly, with a hint of ruthlessness in her eyes. "

"Old slave, go get ready."

Empress Dowager Lu was alone in the room, lying tightly on the edge of the bed, clenched her fists tightly, stretched out her hand to hook the trap beside the bed, and knocked ten times.

After a while, a porch opened in the wall, and a man in black walked in.

"master!"

Empress Dowager Lu took a deep breath, "Go to Xinyang Princess's mansion and capture the princess!"

The man in black nodded, "Yes!"

The night is like ink, and the cool moon is like a hook. People who don't know it sleep peacefully and live in a pure land without contending with the world.

It was an extremely long night.

On the top of Tianzhu Mountain, two blush-red bodies lay on the ice block, with a stunning face, they closed their eyes and slowly fell asleep, sleeping peacefully, and their skin became paler and weaker.

Lu Ning glanced at Su Han, who was strangely familiar, and her heart was beating violently.

"There are still three hours before dawn, so we have to take advantage of the early morning before dawn to do this."

Daoist Tianshu's voice was even more abrupt in this extremely cold place, and his gloomy eyes were fixed on the sleeping Su Han, wandering between the two.

"Empress Su can't wake up from a long sleep. Even if she recovers her body, it will take at least some time to wake up." Daoist Tianshu smiled at Qi Yao, "Don't forget to promise me, your majesty, share with me." 20 years of prosperity."

Qi Yao was submerged in the night in a black cloak, and his stunning face was so enchanting and bright, after a long time, he hummed lightly.

"I promise you yes, keep your word!"

A smug look flashed in one pupil of Daoist Tianshu, and he wrapped himself tightly in the cloak.

This night was extremely difficult, Qi Yao looked up at a star twinkling in the sky, and compared all the stars behind him.

Gradually, the sky became slightly brighter, and Taoist Priest Tianshu kept walking back and forth with a summoning bell in his hand, the tinkling sound was particularly ear-piercing.

"Everyone back ten meters away, no matter what sounds you hear, don't come over!"

Daoist Tianshu had a solemn expression on his face, chanting incantations non-stop.

"Husband!" Lu Ning held Qi Yao's arm with one hand, and her palm was full of sweat.

"Don't be afraid, my husband is here to accompany you." Qi Yao took a deep breath, hugged Lu Ning tightly, and then let go of her hand after a rush of soul-calling bells.

The palace is already in chaos, and Princess Xinyang has been in the palace all along, and she is still accompanying Emperor Yusheng in a daze.

"Brother Huang, it seems a bit uneasy tonight."

Princess Xinyang clutched her chest, there was a throbbing, her eyelids kept twitching, "Brother Emperor, Lin En will be fine, and sister Ning, my heart is beating really fast."

Princess Xinyang walked up and down anxiously, looking at Emperor Yusheng nervously.

There was a flash of swords and swords in my ears, crackling, and it felt close at hand.

Princess Xinyang's voice tightened, "Brother Huang?"

Yu Shengdi, who had been silent all this time, passed the wine in the cup to his mouth, "In terms of success or failure, there will definitely be a result tonight, Xinyang, are you afraid?"

When Princess Xinyang heard Emperor Yusheng's tone, the fear in her heart decreased a lot, and she gradually became more stable. She shook her head, "Xinyang is not afraid. Faith has been worrying about sleeping well for so many years, and now I can finally be relieved. Xinyang has always Believe it, since ancient times, evil has prevailed over good!"

Emperor Yusheng smiled and walked to the table, "Why don't you play a game with Brother Huang? After so many years, how have you and I played chess leisurely?"

As he said that, Emperor Yusheng dropped a black chess piece on the chessboard on his own.

Princess Xinyang's heart gradually stabilized, and she could only resign herself to life or death. She walked to the table again and again, picked up a white piece and dropped it on the chessboard.

Neither of the two said a word, they remained silent all the time, and the clear and clear sound of the chess pieces falling to the ground was especially pleasant.

After more than an hour, a guard stepped forward, "Return to the emperor, all the traitors have been arrested."

The chess piece in Emperor Yusheng's hand landed on the chessboard with a bang, and he was a little excited.

"Who helped me?"

"It's Mr. Ji from Eastern Chu. Mr. Ji told his subordinates to tell the emperor to reduce killings and save one's life."

Emperor Yusheng slowly opened his squinted eyes and nodded, "Put all these people into the prison first, abolish martial arts and break their tendons, and guard them strictly!"

"Yes, my subordinates retire."

"Brother Huang, we really owe Dong Chu Tianda a favor now, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to repay this debt." Eldest Princess Xinyang looked distressed.

Emperor Yusheng glanced at Princess Xinyang and always felt a little owed, "You don't have to worry, Master Ji acted on the orders of Emperor Dongchu. Back then, I gave Emperor Dongchu something. It’s just a favor.”

Princess Xinyang raised her eyebrows, "I'm curious, what kind of objects can consume so much money from the Eastern Chu Emperor."

Yu Shengdi smiled, "You will know when you have a chance in the future."

"Brother Huang, I want to go and see Sister Ning, but I don't know how she is."

Princess Xinyang said she was going to find Lu Ning, but was stopped by Emperor Yusheng.

"Xinyang." Emperor Yu Sheng was suddenly a little embarrassed to speak, he hesitated for a while before saying, "The one who is married today is not Ning'er, but Ning'er's substitute."

Princess Xinyang was at a loss, "Brother Huang, what are you talking about? I watched Ning'er pay homage with my own eyes. If it's not Ning'er, who is it?"

"Sit down first, and I will tell you slowly." Emperor Yusheng supported Princess Xinyang on the seat, and then told Princess Xinyang about Lu Ning and Su Han in one go.

Half an hour later, Princess Xinyang was stunned, "How is this possible, Brother Huang must be lying to me."

"Nowadays people are casting spells in Tianzhu Mountain, how can I lie to you!" Yu Shengdi looked solemn, and Princess Xinyang frowned, grabbing Yu Shengdi's arm.

"Isn't this nonsense, Ning'er is Ning'er, how could she become Empress Su?"

"Xinyang, listen to me"

The two argued for a long time, and Princess Xinyang fainted from excitement.

Emperor Yusheng sighed, "Go and call the imperial physician!"

This side of Xining Palace is also not peaceful, Empress Dowager Lu held her breath and waited for news.

Suddenly, the ears became quiet, and the corner of the Empress Dowager Lu's lips twitched, "Nurse Lu!"

After calling several times but nothing happened, Empress Dowager Lu's heart tightened, "Come on, come on quickly."

After a while, a maid came in, looking very strange.

"What orders does the empress dowager have?"

"Where is Lu Nanny? Go and call Lu Nanny to Ai's family!" Empress Dowager Lu suddenly had an ominous premonition.

"Back to the Empress Dowager, Nanny Lu has gone out and never came back."

At this moment, a man dressed like a little father-in-law crawled in in a mess.

"Empress Dowager, the Eldest Prince has used King Chen as a hostage, and General Cheng is one of King Chen's former subordinates, he has already surrendered..."

After the little eunuch finished speaking, he continued, "The queen mother, all the guards in the palace were taken down by the emperor and put in death row. Nanny Lu rushed to report the letter but died tragically under the sword. She specially asked the slave to report the letter, and said today The one who married the prince is not the princess at all, but a substitute, so the queen mother can make plans early."

The little eunuch trembled all over after speaking, as if he still dare not forget the bloody scene just now.

When Empress Dowager Lu heard this, she spat out a mouthful of blood, then fell down on the couch unconscious, but her eyes were wide open, full of unwillingness.

She was actually tricked by a little girl.

On the top of the Sky Burial Mountain, the sky gradually turned from dark to white, and the summoning bell rang for two full hours, and people gathered from all directions.

Lu Ning curled up, clutching her head and biting her lips tightly, a burst of dizziness, dizziness and heart-piercing pain hit her, almost tore her whole body apart, and her whole body trembled non-stop.

Daoist Tianshu's technique was very strange. He tore a transparent spell in half in his hand, looked at Qi Yao with an evil smile, and then stuck half of it on Su Han's body, and the other half on his body.

Qi Yao pretended not to notice, and waited quietly, her heart almost beating out.

"Come back, come back, believer girl Su Han knows that she is wrong, I implore all the gods to raise your hands high, don't stop me, I will definitely offer a lot of sesame oil in the future, do good deeds and never do evil, come back!"

Daoist Tianshu was holding a copper sword that was covered with sparks, and waved it non-stop over Su Han, and the sparks shone around Su Han's whole body.

Lu Ning was drowsy and no longer struggling.

Daoist Tianshu kept chanting mantras, his expression was very painful and distorted, and the white mantra on his forehead was very abrupt and cautious.

Not far away, an old man with a white beard raised his eyes to look at the sky, and the clouds and mists were pushed away. The twinkling star shone brighter and brighter, and then gradually separated into two separate stars, echoing each other, shining abnormally.

The two stars slowly distanced away and gradually returned to their positions. One of them slowly approached the East Chu Emperor Star, and the two reflected each other.

Master Yunwu smiled, and that phoenix star just fell into the seven stars of Tianzhu Mountain. From a distance, it looked like a phoenix alive, and it was auspicious with the emperor star dragon and phoenix.

"Yes, finally back."

At the next moment, there was a dark cloud next to it, whether it was intentional or unintentional, it happened to cover Feng Xing, covering half of it.

Master Yunwu counted his fingers and was shocked, "Wow, this priest is really insidious. He tied his fate to Feng Xing, and the 20-year Phoenix's life was taken from Su Han."

Daoist Tianshu kept mumbling in his mouth, very seriously, at the next moment.

The white curse on the forehead of Taoist Tianshu was torn off, and he was suddenly broken by others. Taoist Tianshu opened his eyes, and his vital energy broke through his internal organs, and he took a few steps back inadvertently.

"Yunwu!" Daoist Tianshu gritted his teeth tightly, "How dare you spoil my good deeds!"

"Tianshu, since you have returned to your throne, why bother to cast spells again? The emperor of Eastern Chu's destiny is destined by heaven. If you do something, you will be backlashed, so you can't take away 20 years of life, so you changed your mind and asked Taking Empress Su's 20-year lifespan, I'm right!"

Daoist Yunwu quickly put the remaining half of the road on Su Han's forehead, and when he raised his head, the dark cloud really dissipated.

"Qi Yao! How dare you turn your back on what you said!" Daoist Tianshu couldn't move, and glared at Qi Yao angrily.

"I keep my word, I promise you 20 years of emperor." Qi Yao said lightly.
