Poisonous girl to marry

Chapter 281 Loyalty
On the way back to the palace, the little emperor felt that not only his body and hands were trembling, but his heart was also trembling.

The inheritance of the emperor's heir has always been a major event.If he can't be humane in the future and loses the prince today, he doesn't know how to explain to the world.What's more, today he did something to make up for the previous guilt towards Huo Shijiu, so he could open his mouth to demand his next move. If it is really because of his temporary selfishness that something happened to Huo Shijiu's only son in the palace, he How should I face him and Jiang Wu?
A character as powerful as Jiang Wu might just sneak into the palace and kill him. The little emperor is not even sure at the moment. On the day when Jiang Wu really wants to kill him, will Huo Jiujiu be able to kill him? protect him...

Returning to the palace in a hurry, the little emperor completely lost the prestige he still had in the past, and rode straight into the inner palace.Because the prince is weak and is the treasure of the emperor, he is not at ease handing it over to any concubine. He is worried that the strength behind the concubine will be unfavorable to the child, so he ordered more than ten nuns and an imperial doctor who is good at pediatrics to work with him. For the convenience of seeing Qijin, Qijin was also there with the wet nurse.

When he rode his horse to the outside of the bedroom, he saw the palace people inside panickedly gathered in front of the palace gate.

The little emperor's heart suddenly tightened, his eyes darkened, and he fell off the horse.

"Your Majesty!" Jing Tong happened to be waiting for the emperor to dismount before the horse. Seeing the person fall, he hurriedly picked it up with both hands, and the heavy object was pressed down with momentum. The angle was distorted, and he even heard a slight "click", the pain was piercing, and tears welled up all at once, but he ignored himself, and shouted in a high-pitched voice: "Come on, Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please don't let me go!" Scaring the slaves! Your Majesty!"

The little emperor's eyes turned black, but he only fainted for a while. He suddenly woke up amidst Jing Tong's shouts. Seeing that the maids and eunuchs came out to greet them and knelt on the ground in order, he resisted not to scream. I look too ugly.

Standing up tremblingly, he said calmly: "It's okay, I'm just dizzy for a while. What's going on here?" Only he himself knew that his legs were shaking under the cover of his normal clothes.

Jing Tong got up, but his right foot didn't dare to touch the ground. Beads of sweat slipped from his head, and he still dutifully said: "What's going on, the emperor is asking."

The leading palace man kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty, just now, she was the wet nurse of Prince Jin Ning. She suddenly vomited blood while serving the prince's soup. At this moment, the imperial doctor is inside."

The little emperor's lips lined up in a straight line, and he hurried into the courtyard with his hands behind his back, strode up the altar, and arrived at the inner hall.

I saw Li Shi, a seven-pound nurse, lying flat on the bed, and the two imperial doctors were squatting beside her for diagnosis and treatment, and Li Shi's eyes were always squinted, and I don't know if she knew clearly, but she kept staring at the side. The maid holding "seven catties".Blood was still pouring out of her mouth, sliding down her cheeks and onto her ears.

"Your Majesty." The palace servants and the imperial doctor saluted.

The little emperor asked: "What's going on? Where's the little prince?"

"Go back to the emperor, the little prince is in the side hall, and the wet nurse is taking it with him. Everything is fine."

At this time, the little emperor really wanted to step into the house to make sure that the child was really safe, but if he opened it up, he might be said to be disrespectful, so he nodded and asked, "What happened?" thing?"

"Your Majesty." The imperial doctor kowtowed and said, "Please forgive me for being incompetent. This nanny is poisoned by arsenic. I have experienced it just now, and the poison is in the soup of the young prince."

"How is your son?" The little emperor's palms were sweating.

The palace lady who was holding the seven catties hurriedly saluted, and said: "The prince is asleep at the moment, just now Li Nanny tasted the soup first, saying that she was afraid that the soup would be too hot, so she was not in a hurry to serve the prince. , right now, Nanny Li..."

The little emperor's thoughts changed, he already understood something, he raised his robe and stood in front of Li Shi, and said in a deep voice: "Li Shi, you hate loyalty."

Li choked, shook her head, tears welled up in her eyes, and said in a weak voice intermittently: "Your Majesty, there are people who want, want to kill the prince, slaves, beg the emperor, save the prince, save the prince..."

"Don't worry, Qijin will be like my son in the future. I will guard him and won't let anyone hurt him. Do you still have your wish?"

"I beg the emperor to take care of the servants' family."

The little emperor looked deeply at the handsome woman who was no more than 20 years old in front of him, and nodded movedly: "Okay."

As if completely relieved, Li's eyes gradually became loose.

After all, she didn't close her eyes, she seemed to be squinting and fell asleep tiredly.

The imperial doctor checked her wrist pulse in a panic, shook his head and said, "Your Majesty..."

The little emperor stood up and hugged Qijin in the arms of the maid.

After all, the emperor is not very skilled in holding, and his arms are also hard. After moving, the child can do it. First, he whimpered and choked twice to vent his dissatisfaction at being woken up. Her big eyes were watery, and she called in a milky voice, "Daddy, Daddy!"

The little emperor's heart immediately softened into a puddle of water.

"You little guy, you have a big life, and it's thanks to your parents who chose a dedicated wet nurse for you."

"Daddy, Daddy!" Qijin waved his little hand, and the little golden bell tied with a red string on his wrist jingled crisply.

Seeing the emperor like this, the palace people clearly act like a loving father who loves the child, and this child is clearly the emperor's!But everyone lowered their heads and dared not speak much.

"Send Mrs. Li back to Jinning Hou's Mansion, tell Brother Ying what happened, and give her a proper burial. In addition, provide compensation to her family."

"According to the order."

Jing Tong limped in and ordered people to resettle Mrs. Li.

Seeing the same scene, the little emperor also remembered that he fell off the horse just now, as if he fell on something soft.It turned out that this loyal slave made his meat pad.

"Jing Tong, go and rest." Pointing to the imperial doctor, "You, go and treat his wounds."

Jing Tong was overwhelmed by flattery: "Your Majesty, the servant is fine, only the servant can serve the Emperor!"

"Don't be wordy." The little emperor said domineeringly: "Why don't you hurry up, do you want to delay a few more days before coming to serve me?"

Jing Tong was very grateful in his heart, as if he had wiped honey, he kowtowed and saluted, and jumped out with the help of the servant, followed by the imperial doctor.

Only then did the little emperor sit down on the kang with bright yellow mattresses next to the window with Qijin in his arms, and said: "Go, thoroughly investigate the people in the imperial dining room, and who handed the soup just now. The imperial palace is my place." In my house, someone dared to poison me, I am getting impatient!"

With a cold snort, the emperor's hostility spread like a black mist, and the palace people were silent, thinking of the palace people who were killed in the Lanfei Palace that day, and the seven clans of the Xu family who were exterminated. The bloody smell that can't go away.

When Li's body was sent back to Huo's house, Jiang Wu and Huo Shijiu were chatting with Zhao and Tang in the upper room. Just now the mansion did undergo a change, but it was brought by Jiang Wu and Huo Shijiu. The people in front of the door stopped the development of the situation. Although Zhao Shi, Huo Dashuan, Tang Shi and others did not see it with their own eyes, they could breathe the tense air, and they still felt uncomfortable and flustered at this moment.

Huo Jiujiu took the opportunity to discuss their family's trip to the south.Now that Jiang Yan is about to give birth, and the situation is tense, they can't be asked to stay any longer.

Mrs. Zhao and Huo Dashuan were discussing when to leave, when someone outside came to the corridor in a panic, their voice trembling: "Your Majesty! Someone from the palace brought Mrs. Li back!"

"Li Shi?"

Huo Dashuan didn't react for a while, but Huo Shijiu's color changed, and Zeng stood up: "Bring it in!"

"Master Hou, this... is not good. The corpse is now parked in the courtyard outside. A father-in-law came from the palace and said that he was sent back by order, and that there was an order from the emperor to pass on."

Corpse!

Jiang Wu's face was pale, but she didn't want to frighten the two mothers, so she said: "Mother, we are all waiting here, let Ah Ying handle it."

"Li Shi, is that Li Shi who serves Qijin?"

"Well, it's her."

Mrs. Zhao was very shocked, and tremblingly said: "How can a person who is so good suddenly disappear...The seven catties..."

"Qijin will be fine." Jiang Wu gently comforted her.

Huo Shijiu had already walked quickly to the courtyard and saw the people from the palace.

"Master Hou, the emperor said that this Nanny Li was loyal and went to protect the little prince. The emperor also said, please treat Li Nanny's family generously. This is Li Nanny's wish before she died."

"What happened in the palace!"

"Back to Lord Marquis, I don't even know about this servant." Even if the servant knew everything, he didn't dare to reveal the secrets of the royal family. After all, in the palace, such a situation happened, and the emperor was angry. possible.

But the person in front of him was something he couldn't afford.

Among the servants in the palace, who doesn't know the status of Huo Jiujiu in the emperor's mind?If Huo Shijiu held grudges against someone and said something bad about someone, the emperor would kill him just because of Huo Jiujiu's mood.

After deliberating, the little servant laughed and said: "The servant only knows that Nanny Li was poisoned. The emperor is conducting a thorough investigation in the palace right now, and the little prince is fine. The emperor personally brought him by his side."

"Thank you, father-in-law." Cao Yu took out a red seal stuffed from his bosom and gave it to the servant.

The servant was flattered and saluted: "Don't dare, dare not." After a few more pleasantries, he left.

Huo Jiujiu squatted on the ground, lifted the white cloth covering the corpse, took a look, then closed his eyes, and put the cloth back on.

Thinking about it before and after, I already had an idea in my heart, and said quietly: "After all, I can't help you..."

"Master Hou, don't be too sad, Mrs. Li is loyal, you just need to take care of her family." Cao Yu persuaded.

Huo Shijiu shook his head, "Now I am also a father. If I am asked to let go of the child, I will be sad. Li Shi herself is also a man with sons and daughters... After all, it was my incompetence that hurt her. She This is to die on behalf of Qijin. Mo Ran, leave this matter to you. I really have no face to face her family."

Cao Yu felt compassionate, nodded and said: "Yes, I will go in a while, Marquis, the palace is not safe anymore, do you want to think of a way? Someone can poison Qijin, then the emperor..."

"Well, I will enter the palace immediately and discuss with the emperor."
