The ice and rain were like knives, hitting people's bodies, even before the knives hit them, the pain was heartbreaking.
Dozens of swords were placed around Ran Xiaoyu's neck, but she was completely unmoved, and was still struggling desperately. As soon as she moved, the sharp steel blade brushed past her slender neck, and immediately cut a long line. long mouth.
Blood, mixed with rainwater, flowed down.
"Let me go!"
She shouted anxiously. When the people around heard her voice and saw her face through the faint light under the eaves, everyone was shocked: "It's you? Aren't you the maid next to the imperial concubine?"
"What are you doing here?"
"This is the Imperial Study Room, you trespassed on the Imperial Study Room, do you want to die?!"
Ran Xiaoyu gritted her teeth and said, "I want to see the emperor."
A Jin Yiwei said: "Your Majesty? Your Majesty has no time to see you right now! And you dare to trespass into the imperial study, come and take her down."
After speaking, several people came up to tie her up.
Ran Xiaoyu became even more anxious, struggling desperately: "Let me go, let me go!"
It was the first time that she discovered that she had been able to run amok in the palace all this time because of the protection of the noble concubine, and there was also that person who had been putting up with her all the time, but when they all left, apart from her brute strength, she really Nothing at all.
Nothing at all!
The coldness of the rain was already attacking her body, but at this moment, the coldness pierced straight into her heart.
Seeing her yelling, those Jin Yiwei immediately panicked.
Tonight, the emperor summoned a few ministers to deal with important matters in the imperial study, so he specially dispatched a team of Jinyiwei to come here to protect them. If this girl disturbs them, everyone here will be punished!
So, they clasped her hands upside down and pulled her aside desperately.
One person also took a ball of cloth, came over and pinched Ran Xiaoyu's chin, about to stuff it into her mouth.
Ran Xiaoyu became anxious and bit the man's hand.
"Ouch!"
The man yelled loudly and retracted his hand. Taking advantage of this moment, Ran Xiaoyu immediately yelled towards the imperial study: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Your Majesty is sick, Your Majesty! Your Majesty is sick!"
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the imperial study room.
The candlelight inside seemed to sway, casting a few swaying black shadows on the window.
However, the surrounding Jin Yiwei panicked.
They didn't expect Ran Xiaoyu to be so desperate. As soon as they heard her yell, one of the Jin Yiwei walked up behind her and raised his knife to chop the back of her neck.
At this moment, a deep voice sounded in the rain—
"stop!"
The man's hand suddenly stopped within an inch of Ran Xiaoyu's neck.
As soon as everyone looked up, they saw the door of the imperial study room slowly opened, Xiao Shunzi came out holding a candlestick, and then, a tall figure slowly came out from inside, Eunuch Yu held an umbrella, Followed on tiptoe behind him.
Soon, he walked up to the steps, and the dim light shone on his face, making him look even more gloomy.
It's Zhu Feng!
But when they saw him, everyone was shocked and hurriedly bowed down.
"emperor!"
Taking advantage of these people panicking and loosening their grip, Ran Xiaoyu gritted her teeth and broke free from them, hurriedly ran towards Zhu Feng, and knelt down in front of him, "Your Majesty!"
Several guards in Jin Yi were shocked and hurried over to arrest her.
At this time, Zhu Feng waved his hand faintly: "Everyone back down."
"yes."
Everyone could only stop again, kneeling on both sides.
At this time, the open space in front of the imperial study room was already full of people kneeling, and the umbrellas that everyone was holding were scattered on the ground, and everyone was drenched in the rain.
Zhu Feng took a step forward and looked at Ran Xiaoyu coldly: "What are you doing here?"
"Your majesty," Ran Xiaoyu looked up at him, her eyes were red, and said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty is ill, please save her!"
"What?"
"She's sick, and now she has a terrible fever, and she's been talking nonsense."
"..."
"The servant has no choice but to come and beg the emperor!"
As soon as she finished speaking, another person came out from the imperial study room at the back, looking at her with a panicked expression: "Miss Xiaoyu, do you think your mother is sick?!"
The person who came was none other than Gu Tingqiu.
Originally, Zhu Feng planned to announce what happened tonight in the morning, so he told them to stay in the imperial study and not to come out, but when he heard that the concubine was ill, Gu Tingqiu walked out immediately.
He asked, "What's going on?"
Ran Xiaoyu said: "Your Majesty has been ill, and a few days ago she suffered from the wind and cold, and it got worse and worse."
Zhu Feng frowned, gritted his teeth and said, "Didn't you say that the Royal Pharmacy has been delivering medicine?"
"..."
For some reason, Ran Xiaoyu trembled slightly upon hearing these words.
However, because the light was too dark, I didn't notice her strangeness. I just said after a moment of silence: "Yes, there is medicine, but the body of the empress—after what happened last time, it is not as good as before, so The disease is getting worse."
"..."
"She had a high fever, she was in a daze, and she kept talking nonsense."
"..."
"I beg the emperor to save the empress!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Feng's face darkened immediately, and he was about to walk forward immediately.
Eunuch Yu and the others were caught off guard, and hurriedly grabbed the umbrella to follow, and called the people behind them to light the lanterns quickly, because the candlestick in Xiao Shunzi's hand had already been extinguished by the rain, and walking in the dark all the way, they were afraid that the emperor would fall down.
However, just as Zhu Feng walked to the front gate, a few more people came running from a small road on the left. They held umbrellas and held lanterns in their hands, with panicked expressions on their faces.
As soon as he saw Zhu Feng coming out, he hurried over and knelt down towards Zhu Feng.
"emperor!"
Jin Yiwei was already nervous, so he rushed forward at this moment: "Who is it?"
"Yes, it's a servant girl, Your Majesty!"
As soon as the voice sounded familiar, and Xiao Shunzi behind him immediately walked up with a lantern, and the faint light illuminated those faces. It was the maid Hanxiang and the eunuch Xiao Shun who served Concubine Ning of Jianfu Palace. Many children of them.
Seeing them, Zhu Feng frowned again.
"What are you doing here again?"
At this time, Hanxiang was already drenched by the heavy rain, and seemed to be quite frightened, kowtowing to Zhu Feng: "Your Majesty, something happened to Concubine Ning, Your Majesty, go and have a look."
"What happened to you—Concubine Ning?"
Hanxiang was panic-stricken, knelt at Zhu Feng's feet and trembled, and said, "I don't know why, Concubine Ning suddenly complained that her stomach hurts, and she has already asked people from the Tai Hospital to look at it, but she kept shouting, The pain is severe, and she wants to see the emperor."
"..."
"I beg the emperor to save Concubine Ning!"
