Love on the Pillow: Pampering the Unscrupulous Queen

Chapter 17
The leader, a school lieutenant named Xuanjia, came riding on horseback with a long spear in his hand, and he came before he could hear: "Who is making trouble in front?"

The guard next to Feng Jun immediately shouted loudly: "Is this person here, Colonel Xuanjie, Captain Qin? I am the guard next to His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness was assassinated by Xiao Xiao, and was injured by the assassination. I hope that the captain will immediately arrest this person." The traitor takes it!"

As soon as he said these words, the knives in the hands of the people on the opposite side fell to the ground one after another, and all of them looked at the Shenwu army that had surrounded them with a pale face, and they were so panicked that they couldn't even speak.

"The owner of Sihai Casino is the culprit who hinted at the assassination of His Highness the Crown Prince, please send someone to arrest him immediately!" the guard immediately said.

Upon hearing the words, Captain Qin Han immediately dispatched a team of people to go to the gambling shop to pick up the man. At the same time, he immediately got off his horse and saw that the person lying on the ground was indeed the current Crown Prince Feng Jun, and immediately said: "The last general will be the Crown Prince. Escort back to the palace!"

"Wait." The guard immediately took out a elixir and put it into Feng Jun's mouth, "His Royal Highness has just been hit by a poisoned arrow, so take a detoxification pill first."

Qin Han immediately dispatched the carriage and personally escorted Feng Jun back to the palace.

Both Shiqin and Shishu were so frightened that their faces turned pale. Now that such a big mistake happened, if the queen mother pursued it, no one would be able to bear it.

Sitting on the rickety carriage, Su Qing moved Feng Jun's head to her lap to protect him carefully, looking at Feng Jun's pale face in despair, her mind went blank.

If Feng Jun approached her only for the military power of the Su family, is it necessary for this sake?Why block the poisoned arrow for her?

Thinking of what Feng Jun said before she fell into a coma, don't be afraid, Su Qing felt cramps in her heart one after another.She turned her head and didn't want to see Feng Jun's lifeless look again, but Shi Qin next to her handed over a handkerchief.

"Miss, don't cry. When you return to the palace, the imperial doctor will cure His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Shi Qin comforted Su Qing slightly with tears.

Su Qing froze for a moment, then stretched out her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes, as expected, the corners of her eyes were already wet a lot.

when did she cry?
Haven't you already decided to take revenge on Feng Jun?Didn't he already let go of this person?Why now, looking at Feng Jun who was lying motionless on her lap, she felt so painful that she couldn't breathe?

After returning to the palace, the palace was even more chaotic.All the imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital were dispatched to diagnose the pulse in the Prince's Eastern Palace. The palace people in the Eastern Palace were also busy, according to the Imperial Physician's instructions, those who boiled the medicine and those who boiled the water.

When the Empress Dowager heard the news and came, the imperial doctor was writing a prescription. When she saw the Empress Dowager was about to salute, she was stopped by the Empress Dowager: "Don't worry about Aijia, it's important to save the Prince. Tell me honestly, how is the Prince's condition now?"

The imperial doctors looked at each other, and finally the envoy stood up and said: "If you go back to the queen mother, the prince was hit by an arrow in the back of the shoulder, and the arrow was poisoned. Although the prince's inner strength is strong, he is no match for the poison's overbearing. The prince's situation is very critical. Now, We can only use the medicine of tiger and wolf to hang the prince's life, and see if we can survive tonight."

The Queen Mother's eyes went dark when she heard this, and she almost fainted, but fortunately, the nurse next to her helped her up in time.

Immediately, another imperial doctor checked the Empress Dowager's pulse, and diagnosed that the Empress Dowager was angry, and her blood qi surged up for a while, causing chest tightness and shortness of breath. She cautiously suggested that the Empress Dowager return to Fengyi Palace to rest.

"What the hell is going on here?" After the Queen Mother regained her senses, she slapped the table heavily and asked angrily, "Who is so bold as to dare to hurt His Highness the Crown Prince?"

Seeing this, Su Qing lowered her eyes and said, "If you go back to the queen mother, it's all because of Li'er. If Li'er hadn't asked the prince to take me outside, His Royal Highness would definitely not be in danger. Please punish the queen mother."

The Empress Dowager Su glanced at Su Qing, sighed after a while, and pulled her in front of her: "You child, why take all the responsibility on yourself? Let's talk about this matter after the prince wakes up. It's not early yet Now, you go back to the house first."

Su Qing paused, then said in a low voice: "Queen Mother, if His Highness the Crown Prince wakes up, can you send someone to notify me?"

Empress Dowager Su took a deep look at Su Qing, and then said: "You can stay in the palace temporarily, and the Ai family will send someone back to make it clear to General Su."

Su Qing bowed deeply to Empress Dowager Su: "Thank you, Empress Dowager."

Ordinarily, people outside the palace were absolutely not allowed to stay overnight in the imperial city, but with the Queen Mother's love, Su Qing still lived in the side hall of the East Palace.

In the side hall, Su Qing was sitting by the window, but the uneasiness in her heart surged up one after another.The prince was seriously injured, the queen mother had already arrived, but there was no movement from the emperor's side.

Suddenly, Su Qing frowned: "That Wang Bin is Prime Minister Wang's nephew?"

Shi Qin and Shi Shu next to them were still in panic, and they didn't understand what Su Qing meant when they heard the words.

Su Qing stood up abruptly, then walked out of the palace door with a cold expression, and immediately stepped forward when she saw a palace person passing by, "Who is the bodyguard who is following His Highness the Prince today?"

The palace man was slightly taken aback when he saw Su Qing, then frowned and thought hard for a while before remembering: "Returning to Miss Su, I seem to remember that this servant is the guard Han. I seem to have seen him outside His Royal Highness's hall just now. "

Su Qing turned around and walked towards the prince's bedroom. Sure enough, at the door, she saw the guard who followed Feng Jun out of the palace.

"Guard Han?" Su Qing stepped forward and looked at him.

The guard immediately leaned over and saluted: "Don't dare to do it, Miss Su said that it is Han Yi."

Su Qing stared closely at his eyes, and asked, "Did the Crown Prince go to Sihai Gambling House today to deliberately set up a trap to drag the master behind Sihai Gambling House into trouble?"

Han Yi was slightly taken aback, then smiled wryly and said, "Well, without the order of His Royal Highness, the subordinates dare not speak nonsense."

Su Qing heard the implication, and asked in a cold voice: "Is the prince's injury intentionally designed?"

Han Yi immediately denied, "It was an accident that the crown prince was injured. Originally, the crown prince only planned to lure Wang Bin into the bait. He didn't expect the other party's methods to be too despicable, and he didn't expect that the crown prince would use himself as a shield for the young lady. The other party put poison on the arrow again. I hope Miss Su doesn't misunderstand the prince."

Su Qing's eyes darkened a little upon hearing this.

She would rather Feng Jun was lying to her by pretending to be injured than to see him lying motionless on the bed in a coma.

"By the way, Lieutenant Qin Han locked those people into imperial prison, and Prime Minister Wang's nephew, Wang Bin, was also locked up. We only need to wait for His Royal Highness to wake up." Han Yi said again.

Su Qing was not interested in these things at first, but now that it was about Feng Jun's life and death, she couldn't help but ask: "Has the person who put the poison been tortured? Does he have an antidote?"

When Han Yi heard this, his voice was slightly lowered: "The man was recruited before he was tortured. He said that this poison was made by mixing the venom of ten kinds of poisonous snakes. There is no medicine to cure it. But ordinary people will suffer from poison To be killed within half an hour, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has profound internal strength, maybe... Maybe he can survive it, I don't know."

Hearing this, Su Qing felt dizzy as if her head had been hit by a sap.

Shi Qin and Shi Shu, who rushed over behind her, hurried over to support her, their eyes were red but they couldn't speak.

"Hurry up and help Miss Su go back to rest. There is news from His Royal Highness, and I will inform a few of you." Han Yi said.

The two maids helped Su Qing back to the side hall with red eyes.
