Chapter 345 Bad news

"The queen mother wants to see Xinlan? Do you know what it is?"

When Ding Xiang came in to answer, Fang Ruxuan was explaining to Brother Ming that he slept all day when he was so young, and only by sleeping more can he grow taller in the future.

After listening to Ding Xiang's words, Fang Ruxuan frowned subconsciously.

Since the grounding, Xinlan and Lin Keer seem to have lost contact. In fact, Xinlan spent a lot of money to exchange news with Lin Keer.

Of course, all of this could not be hidden from Fang Ruxuan's eyes, and the news of the entry and exit only reached the two of them after inspection, and there was nothing strange about it.

At this moment, the Empress Dowager Lou suddenly proposed to see Xinlan, Fang Ruxuan really couldn't figure out what was the reason for this.

"Shouchang Palace said that the Empress Dowager made an impromptu thought, remembering that Miss Xin Lan hadn't gone to pay her respects for a few days, so she passed the message down."

Ding Xiang replied.

"Let Yuqing follow."

Such a big living person, even though his feet were restrained, but after all the Queen Mother had spoken, she had to be allowed to go. Fang Ruxuan turned her head and told Xinlan, and suddenly remembered something and said, "Let Luwu go too."

After understanding what Fang Ruxuan meant, Ding Xiang turned around and left.

After leaving the East Palace in the afternoon, Xinlan and Luwu came back again, it was already evening, when they went to the Xuanyi Palace to pay their respects, although they didn't see Fang Ruxuan, their expressions were extremely respectful.

Knowing that the Empress Dowager Lou didn't say anything, although Fang Ruxuan was suspicious, she put the matter aside in an instant.

In the Lianqiu Pavilion, Xinlan told Yuqing, "Go and ask the little master Luwu to come and have a seat."

Xinlan was grounded, but Luwu was not. However, after being punished last time, Luwu seemed to be completely decadent. She rarely stepped out of Xiaoranxuan's door when she had nothing to do, as if there was no one in the East Palace. She's just an average person.

Yuqing hesitated for a moment, then turned around and went out to order the maidservant.

At dinner time, Xinlan and Luwu ate together.

After dinner, Xin Lan waved to Lvwu, and the two went for a walk in the backyard together. Before going out, Xin Lan turned her head and waved to Yuqing, "You don't need to follow, the left and right are in my own yard. What's wrong?"

Yuqing paused, nodded in response, and turned back.

"Sister, what do you want to tell me?"

When they arrived at the backyard, they saw Xinlan vigilantly choosing a place where people could see people coming from all over before standing still, and Luwu asked suspiciously.

Xin Lan nodded, lowered her voice and said, "What's the difference between us being like this and being dead? Is my sister willing?"

"What if you are not reconciled?"

Feeling bitter in his heart, Luwu sneered and said, then looked up at the sky, his gaze seemed extraordinarily hollow.

"That being the case, then I have nothing to say."

Sighing in disappointment, Xinlan turned her head to look at the nursery in the distance, and said with a waned look, "I don't know if we can still see the lotus blooming this year."

Hearing the meaning of Xin Lan's words, Lu Wu's heart skipped a beat.

"Did my sister get any news from the empress dowager? If the news is true, please don't hide it from my sister."

With some eagerness on his face, Luwu asked Xinlan by the sleeve.

Ever since she was punished last time, Luwu never went to greet Queen Zhou again, and Fengming Palace also seemed to have forgotten that there was such a person as herself, so Luwu knew that she had become a useless chess piece. Was abandoned.

However, such a day was not what she wished in her heart. Seeing her bright face in the mirror gradually haggard, Luwu wanted to hate, but she didn't know who to hate.

Looking around again, Xinlan sat closer to Luwu and said, "Your Majesty's health is not good, I'm afraid it will be these days. Think about it, King Yong, King Rui, and King Xuan, but they fought openly and secretly. It has been many years, and although the reserve position has been determined, it is not certain who will take the throne when the king dies in the future."

Luwu used to be a person close to Queen Zhou. Queen Zhou and the Zhongshan Marquis supported King Yong from the beginning to the end. This Luwu knew better than anyone else.

Therefore, at this moment, Xin Lan's words, Lu Wu immediately believed [-]%.

"Then, what does the Empress Dowager mean..."

Luwu quickly grasped the key point.

"When the accident happened over there, it was the time when the succession was the most intense. At that time, the East Palace will definitely be in a mess. Tell me, what can we do by then?"

In Xin Lan's words, it seemed that she was very sure that Chu Yuan would not be the crown prince for long.

There was some hesitation on Lu Wu's face: She didn't understand the outside affairs, but the prince has been in power for more than a year, and his reputation in the court is still good, and now what Xinlan said was all about the prince's defeat Next, the East Palace will not have good results, but what if the East Palace cannot be defeated?

You can tell what she's thinking just by looking at Luwu's expression, Xinlan sneered and said, "His Royal Highness Yong is in the Ministry of War and is in charge of the troops in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing, not to mention His Royal Highness Rui, Lizhou The southeast camp over there is now under control, what do you think His Royal Highness has?"

"Once the imperial city is captured in the future, people like the East Palace will have no way to die well. I also said this heartfelt thing to you because I saw my sister being pitiful. If my sister doesn't believe it, then pretend that I never said it, my sister. As long as you don't tell others, it's all our sisterhood, how about it?"

Saying that, Xinlan made a gesture to get up, but just as she took a step, she was held back by Luwu, "Sister, I believe it. Then, what are we going to do?"

Overjoyed, Xinlan took advantage of the opportunity to sit back, and whispered a few words in Luwu's ear.

"This, can it work?"

After listening to Xinlan's explanation, Luwu felt a little uneasy.

Xin Lan's expression was calm and affirmative, "It must be safe."

Nodding, Luwu took a few deep breaths, as if she was trying to convince herself, Xinlan patted Luwu's hand, "If we are from the Eastern Palace and the Eastern Palace fails, none of us will be able to succeed." It’s a good end. But if we are the Empress Dowager’s people, it will be different. Even if there is no good place to go in the future, but the Empress Dowager is in charge of us, so it will be much better than now, what does my sister think?”

Thinking about it this way, it's true, Luwu nodded affirmatively.

The two talked for a while, and then they got up and walked back when they saw the sky was getting dark.

Luwu took a step back, with a preoccupied look, and saw that the Moon Gate was the main hall of Lianqiu Pavilion, so it would be inconvenient to speak, so Luwu took a quick step to catch up with Xinlan, and asked softly, "Sister, Wang When I went up to the palace, didn't the queen look after me? Is the king really not getting better?"

As long as King Yao is still around, Chu Yuan will still be the prince, and the East Palace will still be the East Palace. No matter how unfavored she is, she will also be the prince's concubine, and rich clothes and good food are indispensable.

However, if King Yao really reached the last step, then they really had to plan for themselves.

Going all out to fight, maybe you can fight for a future for yourself, it's better than dying here all day long.

Xin Lan nodded, "Sister, if you don't believe me, just watch."

Returning to Xiaoranxuan with a lot of worries, Lu Wu was a little bit lost until she sat in front of the dressing table. What Xin Lan said just now, she was calm on the surface, but in fact, a turbulent sea was set off in her heart.

At this moment, Luwu felt that his brain was really not enough.

What should we do?

Sleepless all night, tossing and turning, did not fall into a deep sleep until the dawn of the sky, and when he woke up, he felt that the atmosphere around him was a bit dull, so Lu Wu got out of bed straight away, called his personal servant over and asked, "What's wrong?"

"My lord, something is wrong..."

With a flustered look on her face and even more stuttering when she spoke, the palace maid said in a low voice: "In the middle of last night, someone came from the palace and took the imperial doctors from the imperial hospital to the other side of the palace. It seems, it seems Your majesty is not well."

In a word, Luwu dropped the wooden comb in her hand in shock, and what Xinlan said echoed clearly word by word.

In Xuanyi Palace, Fang Ruxuan patted the swaddling baby and coaxed Mingzhu to sleep, her face was more solemn than ever.

In front of him, Sangshen replied: "His Royal Highness got the news, so he took the imperial doctor to the palace. He told Eunuch Zheng to come back and pass on the message, so that the master should not think too much, and wait for him to come back."

Fang Ruxuan nodded, but her heart was filled with gloom.

A few days ago, Chu Yuan said in a relaxed manner that Mrs. Hua had made progress. They all thought that the poison in King Yao's body would be cured soon. Why did such a sudden change happen in just a few days?
After being lost in thought for a while, Fang Ruxuan raised her eyes and asked Sangsan, "How is the news from Zheng Ping's side? What's the situation on the other side of the palace?"

Sangshen shook her head, "The person who sent the message didn't speak very clearly, but His Highness probably knows more about it."

However, when Chu Yuan got the news, he left the palace. At this moment, Fang Ruxuan was full of questions but could not get an answer.

Waving her hand to signal Mulberry to go down, Fang Ruxuan stared blankly at the bed curtain in front of her and became dazed.

Chu Yuan came back early the next morning, and he didn't even have breakfast, so he planned to change his clothes and go to court.

However, while changing clothes, he still roughly told Fang Ruxuan about the situation in the palace.

"Spitting blood?"

Hearing from Chu Yuan that King Yao vomited blood and was still unconscious, Fang Ruxuan was flustered.

"What did Mrs. Hua say?"

Instead of asking the imperial doctor, Fang Ruxuan asked about Mrs. Hua's statement instead.

Chu Yuan shook his head solemnly, "After the father vomited blood, the queen has been guarding the left and right sides, Mrs. Hua can't get close to see. However, she said that since the blood vomited, it means that the poison has invaded the heart and lungs. It will."

Poisonous evil invades the heart and lungs, but it is a bad omen.

Thinking to herself, Fang Ruxuan's heart sank.

When Fang Ruxuan came back to her senses, Chu Yuan had long since disappeared, and she must have gone to court.

After a while, Kapok entered the palace with a heavy face, "Miss, rumors in Shangyang City are going crazy, saying that His Highness is going to kill the king and seize the throne."
