Yu Qingluo stared at her proud back, tightened Nan Nan's hand, and murmured, "It seems that Concubine Meng is not even willing to pretend to be generous in front of me."
She must have really made her lose her wife and soldiers last time at Lingtai Temple. In addition, she was involved in a fight with the queen because of it. Now she hates herself to the core.
But that's fine, otherwise we would have to exchange perfunctory greetings with each other, which would be exhausting.
Nan Nan raised his head and glanced at her again, then shook his head like an adult and sighed, "It's really hard to understand the thoughts of you women."
Yu Qingluo twitched the corner of her mouth, lowered her eyes and glared at him, "Shut up."
Nannan pouted and turned away. He didn't care about women.
It wasn't until Concubine Meng's back completely disappeared that Yu Qingluo led Nan Nan out of the palace gate.
Seeing Shen Ying waiting there in a carriage, Nan Nan immediately let go of Yu Qingluo's hand and ran over with a cheer.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened the car curtain, he found that there was someone sitting in the car. Nan Nan was overjoyed and rushed towards the man, "Dad, are you here to pick up Nan Nan?"
Yu Qingluo came in later and was stunned for a moment, "When did you come?"
Judging from his appearance, he must have been here for a while, so why not go in? The emperor is poisoned, so he must be anxious if he practices alone at night.
"Not long after you arrived, I came." Ye Xiu squeezed his fingers gently and asked her, "How is your father?"
Yu Qingluo's eyes paused on his hand for a moment, and she sighed secretly in her heart.
Just when she was about to speak, Nannan already spoke excitedly, "Don't worry, Dad, Grandpa Huang is fine. Let me tell you, it's all thanks to me this time. Although my original purpose was to eat the royal meal, That’s why I shamelessly went to Grandpa Huang’s place to eat. But if it weren’t for my shamelessness, no one would know that the food was poisonous, right? Let me tell you, the eunuch who tasted it didn’t taste it either What's the problem? As soon as I swallowed it, my stomach started to hurt. I think I'm really powerful. If you guys in the future... Hey, hey, hey, daddy, why are you grabbing my collar?"
With a dark face, Ye Xiu grabbed Nan Nan and put him on the car shaft outside. He said to Shen Ying, "Sit with you and keep an eye on him."
Shen Ying hurriedly stretched out his hand to catch Nan Nan.
Nan Nan was angry, waved her little arm vigorously, and said angrily, "Dad, what do you mean? You are abusing me like this, you are favoring boys over girls, ah, you know, do you know that girls are preferred over boys? ? Mom, you don’t care. You want to support your wife, you know? Otherwise, what will you do if your father climbs on top of your head and dominates you in the future? "
Yu Qingluo stroked her forehead silently, not wanting to pay attention to her.
Ye Xiudu leaned aside and looked at her silently.
"Your Majesty is fine. Although he has been poisoned for a while, it has stopped for more than a month. He will be cured soon with proper treatment. But he knows that it was Concubine Wan who did this. He is so angry that he is afraid that he will suffer some pain. ”
Just before she came out, she had seen that the emperor's face was not very good. It's just that this emotional problem is not something that her future daughter-in-law can comfort. The emperor must have always had great trust in Concubine Wan, but now all the trust was dumped in an instant. It is normal to have such a reaction.
Ye Xiu closed his eyes alone, and the carriage began to roll forward. Nan Nan outside the curtain began to chatter to Shen Ying again.
Yu Qingluo said a few more words, reassuring the emperor that nothing was wrong, and then she saw his clenching fingers loosen slightly.
She stepped forward and slowly put her right hand into his big palm.
Ye Xiu was stunned and raised his eyes to look at her.
Yu Qingluo leaned on the pillow beside him, pursed her lips and smiled, "Have you eaten yet? I'm a little hungry."
After a busy morning, it was already past dinner time. Yu Qingluo's stomach was flat and she felt really uncomfortable.
Ye Xiudu didn't know that she was changing the subject. He turned his head and glanced at him, and said softly, "Yes".
Nan Nan outside immediately cheered, "Okay, okay, go eat quickly, I'm already crazy with hunger."
"..." I wonder who has been eating in the imperial study room? Yu Qingluo no longer had any thoughts about this person.
"..." Ye Xiu sighed alone. He was really busy. On the one hand, he had to chat with Shen Ying, and on the other hand, he was distracted by listening to the two of them whispering.
Shen Ying just smiled and the carriage turned around and headed towards a nearby restaurant.
After that day, the atmosphere in the imperial capital began to become tense, and an undercurrent surged. The eldest prince, Prince Bao, led people according to the names in the booklet and entered various palaces and mansions to arrest people. For a moment, people were panicked.
The princes, princesses and concubines of various houses looked at the people in front of them being taken away, with disbelief on their faces, and some of the beliefs in their hearts began to collapse.
In particular, it is really unacceptable that some of the servants and women who have followed him since childhood are all spies placed by others.
Suddenly, many people began to gnash their teeth and resent what Concubine Wan had done, and read one book after another in front of the emperor.
A few days later, Prince Bao took the book to see the emperor. Although most of the people inside were captured, there were also some who escaped after hearing the news.
The emperor tightened his lips and asked Prince Bao to interrogate those captured first.
Prince Bao took the order and left, and the first person he interrogated was the maid next to Concubine Shu.
He had to admit that Concubine Wan's abilities were so great that those people would rather die than reveal anything about her.
However, even if some are loyal, there are also some who cannot bear the torture and reveal what they know.
Prince Bao handed all the compiled confession files to the emperor. After the emperor saw it, his expression suddenly changed, and the little friendship he had for Concubine Wan disappeared.
Yingshui Palace was filled with violent storms and heavy rain.
Concubine Wan stared out the window, holding the note in her hand and suddenly became silent.
Standing next to her was a man in black with an anxious look on his face, "Mother, I will take you away."
"You can go." Concubine Wan placed the note across the candle and stared at it slowly burning into ashes. There was already a bloody storm outside, and she knew that she was not going to die soon.
The man in black's eyes widened, "If I don't leave, I'm afraid I won't survive tonight. Your Majesty..."
"I know." Concubine Wan stood proudly, her eyes cold and without any trace of weakness.
She took a deep breath, closed her eyes slightly, and said softly, "You go, Haoran will be your master from now on, and you will secretly protect his safety. Whatever he wants to do... let him do it."
After that, she ignored the hesitation of the man in black and turned around to leave the inner room.
The palace door of Yingshui Palace opened wide, and as soon as Concubine Wan appeared, she was stopped by the guards in front of her.
"Concubine Wan, the emperor has ordered that the concubine is not allowed to step out of the Yingshui Palace."
"I know." Concubine Wan raised her chin slightly, "I want to see Princess Tianfu of Tianyu Kingdom. I have something to say to her about the poison the emperor was poisoned with."
