Mo Rongzhan's handsome and indifferent face was as cold as ice. He looked at Lu Lingzhi with cold eyes, and then at Ye Zhen who was standing behind, and said word by word, "I will abandon Lu Shuang'er as my sister-in-law, and I will send her to you tomorrow." When you go to Nianci Temple, you will always be accompanied by green lanterns."
The expression on Lu Lingzhi's face at this time was not only shocked, he looked at Mo Rongzhan in disbelief, and abandoned Shuang'er... as aunt? This is more cruel than throwing Shuang'er into limbo, how could the emperor have the heart to do such a thing to Shuang'er
"Yanzhi, I was the one who almost killed Lu Shuang'er!" Murong Zhan said in a low voice, if Xu Huiru hadn't drunk Xueyan first, he would be the one who was poisoned at this time.
When Lu Lingzhi's pleading words came to his lips, he was unable to utter a single word.
Mo Rongzhan looked at Lu Lingzhi inquisitively. If he dared to intercede with the fact that Lu Shuang'er had saved his life, then he must know Xiao Yaoyao's whereabouts, and this matter must be related to Lu Lingzhi.
"Your majesty, I have nothing to do with my minister." Lu Lingzhi lowered his head. Since the emperor had already made a decision, it would be useless for him to plead for mercy. The most shocking thing in his heart was... how did the emperor know that Shuang'er was not his savior? If the emperor hadn't known the truth, it would be impossible to treat Shuang'er like this.
"This matter has nothing to do with you. You are still injured, so get up and talk." Mo Rongzhan said.
Lu Lingzhi kowtowed, then slowly stood up, "Your Majesty, I have another request."
"If you want to see Lu Shuang'er, you can't do it today. I will allow you to see her after she knows she has repented." Mo Rongzhan said lightly.
Lu Lingzhi smiled wryly in his heart, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Mo Rongzhan touched the wrench on his thumb, "Go back and rest."
"Your Majesty, this humble servant will resign." Lu Ling's heart was filled with despair, and he knew very well that Shuang'er might not be able to return to this palace in this lifetime.
Ye Zhen, who had been silent all this time, lowered her head and wanted to leave the imperial study room with Lu Lingzhi. Before she had taken two steps, she heard Murong Zhan's deep voice again, "Yaoyao, the Queen Mother was shocked tonight. You go to the Compassion Palace to accompany her."
Ye Zhen stopped in her footsteps and looked back at him with a frown.
Mo Rongzhan's face did not change, he still looked stern and indifferent, "Ford, send Marquis of Anyang out of the palace."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Ford bowed his head in response.
Lu Lingzhi glanced at Ye Zhen hesitatingly, but finally said softly, "Yaoyao, then you can go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to accompany the Empress Dowager, by the way..." Plead for Shuang'er.
It's a pity that Lu Lingzhi couldn't say such words again.
After watching Lu Lingzhi leave, Ye Zhen said to Mo Rongzhan, "Your Majesty, then I'm going to the Palace of Compassion."
"Aren't you worried that I'm also poisoned?" Mo Rongzhan sighed with a smile, walked over to hold her hand, "Why did you follow into the palace tonight?"
Ye Zhen turned away his big palm and said in a low voice, "Didn't Lu Shuang'er say that I gave those blood swallows to Concubine Xu Xian? The old lady was worried that I would be implicated, so she asked me to come into the palace to explain."
Murong Zhan snorted coldly, "Do you think I will allow Lu Shuang'er to use you to take the blame? She is the only one who came up with such a stupid method."
"You... really abandoned her?" Ye Zhen couldn't believe it. During the two years when she was wandering in the palace, Lu Shuang'er was the only one in the harem. Now it's just a new start. Why did Mo Rongzhan abandon her? .
"You care about someone who wants to kill you, why don't you care about me." Murong Zhan stood beside her, looking down at the expression on her face.
Ye Zhen raised her eyes, looked at his face, and said angrily, "Didn't you say Concubine Xu Xian ate the blood swallow for you? What's the matter with you?"
He has the time to go to Xu Huiru's place to eat blood swallows, so why would he feel uncomfortable.
"You really don't care about me at all." Murong Zhan said helplessly.
Ye Zhen snorted, "I went to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to accompany the Empress Dowager. Your Majesty, let's go find a virtuous concubine who cares about you."
Mo Rongzhan immediately grabbed her wrist and hugged her in his arms, "I just went to sit with Concubine Xian, are you unhappy?"
"Your Majesty, which eye of yours is not happy to see me?" Ye Zhen said angrily, "Let me go!"
"The Queen Mother has already fallen asleep, you will wake her up if you go at this time." Murong Zhan said close to her ear, "It is I who want you to accompany me, not the Queen Mother."
Ye Zhen glared at him angrily, "Mo Rongzhan! How can you be so despicable!"
A slight smile floated on Mo Rongzhan's thin lips, "If not, when will I see you?"
"You..." Ye Zhen glared at him angrily.
"I won't do anything to you, just talk to me." Murong Zhan whispered, but his eyes were fixed on her tender lips.
"There are so many women in your harem, which one can't talk to you." Ye Zhen's cheeks flushed slightly, remembering that Xu Huiru was still a virgin.
Hasn't he let those concubines sleep since he expanded the harem? Then hasn't he always... endured
Mo Rongzhan's eyes became darker, he lowered his head, and said hoarsely, "I want to hear you talk."
Ye Zhen really wanted to ask him about Xu Huiru, but such a thing was not suitable for her to ask, "Then let's play chess!"
"Don't you have anything else to ask me?" Mo Rongzhan asked with a frown.
"Ask what?" Ye Zhen frowned and thought for a while, "Is Concubine Xu Xian really poisoned?"
Xu Huiru knew that there was something wrong with those blood swallows, so how could she still eat them? However, now that even Lu Shuang'er has been abandoned, it is obviously impossible to be fake.
"I heard that she was not feeling well, so I went to Xinhe Palace. Concubine Xu Xian was just about to eat the blood swallow, and she said it was given by Lu Shuang'er, and she asked someone to bring me a bowl. She tasted it first, and quickly Passed out..." Mo Rongzhan simply explained the process of Xu Huiru's poisoning.
A clear smile flashed across Ye Zhen's eyes, "Then why did you go to her palace tonight? The queen mother asked you to go?"
When Murongzhan heard her say this, he thought she was jealous, and was overjoyed, "I'm going to pay my respects to the Queen Mother, she mentioned Xu Huiru, so... Yaoyao, don't you like it?"
"What don't I like?" Ye Zhen smiled, "I just find it strange that someone as smart as Concubine Xu Xian, who has never been on good terms with Lu Shuanger, dares to eat the blood swallow that Lu Shuanger gave her."
"Do you think all the women in the harem are good? Why can't I see what kind of tricks Xu Huiru is playing?" Mo Rongzhan nodded Ye Zhen's forehead, "But let me do it by the way. Something I've wanted to do for a long time."
So he tacitly allowed Xu Huiru to do this? Ye Zhen sneered in her heart, she really is a cunning fox!
