Poison Doctor with Thousand Faces: Hades is not easy to mess with

Chapter 228 The Princess Is Dead
At five o'clock, the servant girl Li Qiu came to Bai Lingran's bed and woke her up softly, "Your Majesty..."

"..."

"Your Majesty, wake up."

"Ok?"

A lazy voice emerged from under the quilt.

The palace maid Liqiu smiled gently, and said softly: "You should get up, Aunt Jiang asked the servant to wake you up, saying that she was going to let you get up and change clothes, the emperor will arrive at the Ruyi Hall in a while, you are going to talk to me this morning. The emperor went to the morning court together."

Morning morning?
Bai Lingran had always been a light sleeper, but the palace servant Li Qiu only called her a few words softly, and then she woke up.

As soon as she heard about the morning court, she got up by herself, raised her sleepy eyes and glanced out the window, only to find that it was not yet dawn.

The maidservant Li Qiu clapped her hands, and immediately several maidservants came in with various things.

One handed the mint tea in front of Bai Lingran, presumably it was tea for gargling.

Jiang Yingrong walked in front of Bai Lingran, held the mint tea in her hand, and introduced, "Ma'am, this tea is for gargling."

After taking a sip, she flushed her mouth with a grunt. Just as she was about to spit out water, Jiang Yingrong handed over a small vase at the right time, "Your Majesty, when you spit out water, you need to cover it with your hands."

Bai Lingran had watched TV dramas before, but he really didn't expect that the imperial city of Xie Yue Empire would have so many formalities.

Do as the Romans do, she can only follow suit.

After washing, Jiang Yingrong took a few maidservants to help her change.

Changing clothes is complicated, front and back, there are actually nine pieces of clothes put on!
Made!

Fortunately, it's winter. If it's summer, it would be strange for her to come out in a full body without being bored!
Then, comb the temples again.

Bai Lingran didn't understand these things at all, and could only let Jiang Yingrong worry about herself.

When the costumes are finished, the window-colored sky is just bright.

A sharp voice sounded outside the door, "The emperor is here!"

Bai Lingran was familiar with this father-in-law's voice.

Holding Jiang Yingrong's hand, Bai Lingran walked out of Ruyi Hall to meet Gong Junlong.

Jiang Yingrong blessed her body, "Slaves and servants will visit the emperor, and the emperor is lucky!"

Bai Lingran nodded towards Gong Junlong as a greeting, and his eyes fell on the screaming father-in-law just now.

Of course, An Dejiang also recognized Bai Lingran. When he saw Bai Lingran's appearance clearly, he couldn't help but gasped, as if he couldn't believe his eyes.

Bai Lingran was naturally very impressed with this father-in-law who once called himself a pariah, with a sneer on his lips, "Eunuch An, I haven't seen you for a while, I think you've got all your food ready?"

"Thanks to the blessing of the empress, the wounds on the old slave have all healed."

Due to the existence of the emperor's palace Junlong, Andejiang had no choice but to answer in a pretentious manner.

Gong Junlong ignored the verbal battle between Bai Lingran and An Dejiang, he stared blankly at Bai Lingran's outfit today.

It really surprised him!

He has seen many beauties, but he has never seen a woman who, when wearing this Luanxiang yellow robe, has a rosy phoenix robe that surpasses the queen!
Gorgeous, noble, and when viewed from a distance, the invisible arrogance is shown in her every move.

The clear and bright eyes were embedded in the delicate and smooth face, and the thin eyelashes blinked, making her more and more seductive.

Eyebrows as long as black, eyelashes as thick as brushes, nose as delicate as apricot, mouth as vermilion.

Ping Ping Ting Ting, graceful and slender waist, wearing nine layers of clothes, still showing her exquisite curves, her smooth and slender neck gradually slid down, and the protruding mountain still hugged the pipa and half covered her face.

A pair of eyes, black and cold, with a sneer on his lips, he glanced at An Dejiang, "Some people, you can offend Mr. An, don't you think so?"

"What the lady said is."

Andejiang's complexion turned blue and white, and he stood there unable to advance or retreat to answer.

Gong Junlong walked in front of her, stretched out his hand, and said with a smile, "My concubine, please accompany me to the morning court."

Looking at that palm, she naturally stretched it out in order to perform well in this play.

The little hand was placed in his.

Gong Junlong's hands are different from Yan Yitian's.

Yan Yitian's hand, like a gentle fire, warmed her little hand.

Gong Junlong's hands are the same as hers, they are cold and scary.

Bai Lingran smiled wryly, it was impossible for her to fall in love with Gong Junlong, and if it wasn't for Yan Yitian, she would not agree to be his concubine.

Even if this concubine is false...

She was suddenly afraid, if Yan Yitian remembered what happened with her after waking up, would he misunderstand her?
Misunderstood that she fell in love with glory and wealth, so why did she stay with Gong Junlong?

She let him hold her with one hand, and with the other hand, she involuntarily touched the child in her belly who was only one month old.

She has no way out.

……

……

Hall of Parliament

The dark marble paved the floor like a mirror.

Civil and military officials are divided into standing on the left and right sides.

Zuo Wen, right Wu.

Sitting beside Gong Junlong, Bai Lingran saw the two men in front of the civil servant at a glance.

One of them was the Prince Jin whom he knew - Gong Jinhong.

The other one is full of silver hair, looks quite old, with a sharp look on his brows, his eyes fell on Bai Lingran, and it was fleeting.

It's just that casual glance, but Bai Lingran keenly sensed that the old man seemed to have murderous intentions towards him.

She didn't remember that she had offended him, why would this old man be hostile to her?
Gong Junlong sat on the dragon chair, and An Dejiang did not enter the Hall of Political Affairs with them. The Xieyue Empire did not allow father-in-laws to enter the Hall of Political Affairs.

Although eunuchs are not allowed to discuss politics, on the contrary, concubines above the rank of concubine in the harem can participate in politics as long as they have real power in their hands.

Gong Junlong's voice rang in their ears, "What's the matter, let me tell you now."

Gong Jinhong took a look at Bai Lingran, the surprise in his heart did not surprise anyone!

Before he suppressed the astonishment in his heart, Qiao Guoce, the lord of Xiangguo beside him, had already stood up and reported loudly: "Your Majesty, I have received news that Princess Anning died in Prince Anding's Mansion in the desert."

"What? When did it happen?"

Gong Junlong was taken aback, why didn't he receive the news?

How could An Ning die?

Her death was too surprising!
Gong Junlong half-closed his eyes and looked at Bai Lingran with a gloomy and uncertain expression, making it impossible to see what he was thinking.

Bai Lingran was equally surprised, Princess Anning died?

So, is Princess Anning married by Yan Yitian real?

that……

Shopkeeper Cao, who is full of food, why did he lie to her that Princess Anning is a fake?
After thinking about it, Bai Lingran only felt that she couldn't see through the conspiracy in this.

Fortunately, I didn't attack Princess An Ning, otherwise, if Princess An Ning's death had something to do with me, wouldn't Gong Junlong have an excuse to send troops to the Western Regions?

Master Xiangguo Qiao Guoce cupped his hands, and then said: "Returning to the emperor, I received this news last night. Anding Wang Yan Yitian personally escorted Princess Anning's coffin back to the empire. Your Majesty, Princess Anning died in the desert. Our Xieyue Empire How can the princess of a country die without knowing why? I suggest sending troops to suppress the border and let the Western Region Empire give our country an explanation!"

"No!"

Prince Jin Gong Jinhong hurriedly dissuaded him.

Master Xiangguo Qiao Guoce glared at him and was furious, "Prince Jin, what do you mean? Princess Anning is dead, should we pretend that we can't see anything?"

Prince Jin Gong Jinhong gave him a gouged look, and said in a cold voice: "I report to the emperor, I have an opinion, please listen to the emperor before making a judgment."

"Say!"

"How did Princess Anning die? We haven't investigated the cause of death clearly. What's more, if the Western Region Empire provokes our empire's prestige, King Yan Yitian of Anding doesn't have to personally escort Princess Anning's coffin back to the empire. Since King Yan Yitian of Anding came Xieyue City, can't we make a decision after listening to the explanation of King Anding Yan Yitian?"

After listening to Prince Jin Gong Jinhong's suggestion, Gong Junlong has made a decision.

But he turned to look at Bai Lingran with a smile, "Aifei, what do you think?"

Bai Lingran had been thinking about the strangeness of Princess Aning's death. She was wondering if the death of Princess Aning might have something to do with shopkeeper Cao?

If it is really related, which side is the power behind Shopkeeper Cao?

She didn't hear Gong Junlong's question.

Until Gong Junlong flirtatiously stretched out his hand to hook her chin, making her look directly at him, his handsome face was obviously displeased, and he stared at her sideways, "Aifei, are you wandering?"

Bai Lingran smiled back at him, "The concubine is just thinking about a question."

"what is the problem?"

"If the Xieyue Empire fights with the Western Regions Empire, how much chance does the Emperor have? Not to mention the odds of winning, if the two empires fight, both sides will suffer. When two tigers fight, someone must sit on the mountain and watch the tiger Dou. In that case, who will be the forces in the rear?"

Her voice is soft, crisp and pleasant, as sweet as a yellow warbler out of the valley, and as elegant as a silver bell.

As soon as she opened her mouth, the civil officials couldn't help looking up at the source of the sound, but they saw the imperial concubine staring at Gong Junlong with a smile that was not a smile. The ethereal and moving appearance made all the ministers unconscious As soon as it got hot, she turned her head with difficulty. She was such a pure and beautiful woman, which made people unconsciously intoxicated.

As soon as the words fell, Prince Jin Gong Jinhong cupped his hands and said: "The concubine Zheng is right, your majesty, the cause of Princess Anning's death must be found out first. To avoid misunderstanding between the two countries, it is the New Year and it is not suitable to issue an order to send troops Even if we want to attack the Western Region Empire, we need to find evidence to make the Western Region Empire wrong, so that we can confidently demand an answer from the Western Region Empire."

"I agree with Prince Jin's words!"

A young general stood out from among the generals, and agreed with him.

With one person taking the lead, many people followed up with Prince Jin.

The emperor Gong Junlong raised his hand and restrained the words of all the officials, "For this matter, I will pass on my order to welcome King Anding to the capital immediately, and transport the coffin of Princess Anning back to the capital as quickly as possible. Mr. Xiangguo, please hurry up!" Go find the best post-mortem examination, the day after Princess Anning returns, I want to know the account of the cause of Prince Anning's death!"

"The minister leads the order!"

Master Xiangguo Qiao Guoce nodded in response, his triangular eyes glanced at Bai Lingran, hiding his annoyance well.

Originally, it was enough for him to have a headache if a Prince Jin opposed him, but he did not expect that there would be another imperial concubine!
