Chapter 383 Ambition

An autumn rain completely dissipated the remaining heat, instantly dragging the capital into the lonely cold autumn.

Cai Fuya was used to sitting in front of the window, watching the flowers and plants in the courtyard grow from lush to withered. Gradually, the small porcelain bottle in her hand became a little warm.

There is only one last pill left. Take this pill and everything will be over.

She gently caressed her belly, as if she was saying her final goodbyes to this missed child.

Yue Wei came in with the medicine as usual and said in a respectful manner: "Madam, it's time for you to drink the medicine today."

Cai Fuya retracted her gaze and calmly took the medicine bowl. When she was about to drink it, she asked, "How long will it take for the medicine to end?"

Yuewei paused for a moment and replied: "This servant doesn't know. I'll find out by asking the imperial doctor tomorrow when he comes to ask for Ping An's pulse."

"Yes." Cai Fuya responded lightly, raised her head and drank the medicine.

After watching her drink the medicine, Yue Wei didn't notice anything strange, put away her things, and left the dormitory. Who would have thought that at night, Cai Fuya would suddenly have unbearable abdominal pain and blood overflowed under her skirt. Yue Wei suddenly panicked and hurriedly

I went and asked the imperial doctor to come.

Not long after, Yao Xingzheng hurried over and showed Cai Fuya, only to realize that she had accidentally eaten something that could cause the fetus to slip, and the baby might not be safe!

Yue Wei did not hesitate and quickly went to Chengming Hall to pass the news.

"This matter did come sooner than I expected, but now that it has happened, our plans have to be advanced." Cai Yuan calmed down and suddenly asked, "I heard that Shen Xuhuai is still investigating the matter in Tongzhou?"

The young eunuch's name was Zhongxuan. He was the apprentice of the father-in-law in charge of the Shangshan Department. He received a lot of money from Ling Youyao.

The sycamore tree in Zongzheng Temple has turned yellow, and its fallen leaves have fallen with the rustling autumn wind. It is already late autumn.

It was already bright outside, and even with her eyes closed, she could still feel the heat of the light. Ling Youyao lay in his arms drowsily, murmuring: "Are you waiting for him to come?"

Cai Qi was listening and could only persuade him to calm down: "Father, please calm down. Aya doesn't want to enter the palace. The child is gone. It's useless to dwell on it anymore."

Yue Wei thought about it carefully and replied: "In addition to daily meals, the empress also drinks anti-fetal medicine, but that is a prescription prescribed by Dr. Yao himself, so there should be nothing wrong with it."

Fu Mingjue smoothed her eyebrows and comforted: "Don't be afraid, no matter what happens, I will protect you."

Fu Mingjue closed the window, lowered his head and rubbed her cheek: "Well, go to sleep."

The people in the palace knelt on the ground, all with their heads hanging down, not daring to say a word.

Fu Mingjue said: "Yes, when he came here last time, he mentioned things about Tongzhou. I thought about it for a long time and I roughly guessed what Cai Yuan wanted to do."

After hearing this, Ling Youyao felt no sleep at all.

As the days go by, the weather becomes colder and cooler. When you open the window in the morning, you can see the thin frost condensed on the corners of the eaves, reflecting the crystal brilliance in the sunlight.

The imperial physician whose name was called stepped forward, picked up the dregs of the medicine, came closer and smelled it, and then his expression changed: "Your Majesty, there is a little bit of Guiwei in it. It is precisely because of this that Concubine Yu had a miscarriage!"

He was only halfway through his words when Fu Xiuyun interrupted him and pointed to the imperial doctor: "Go and have a look."

Fu Xiuyun had a headache again. He pressed his eyebrows and said, "Besides these? Is there anything else?"

Tongzhou is located in a strategic area. Once it falls, the consequences will be disastrous, which is why Fu Mingjue is so worried.

"After Song Yinian's death, the prefect of Tongzhou was replaced by a new person, and that person was Cai Yuan's disciple. Winter is about to come, and horse thieves wandering in the north will take advantage of this time to go south to plunder every year. Although the government will send troops to suppress it, the horse thieves

He is very alert, and if he doesn't catch them all, he will leave and come back again. Cai Yuan placed his people in Tongzhou, thinking that he planned to take action."

Ling Youyao felt a chill on her back: "King Jing'an has been guarding the north for many years. If something happens to him, then Beidi -" At this point, she suddenly realized: "Is it possible that the Cai family has contacts with Beidi?!"

By the time Fu Xiuyun arrived at Changchun Palace, Cai Fuya had already fainted from the pain, her face was as pale as a broken puppet, and she was lying motionless on the bed.

He was still guilty, and the military symbols were taken back. There were 60,000 Xuanyu Guards and Imperial Guards, plus 5,000 cavalry from the military camp outside the city, the force was not small.

"Empress, you're awake!" Tan Xin helped her up and asked with concern, "Are you still in pain? Do you want the imperial doctor to come in and take a look?"

About a month ago, when he came again, he knelt down and apologized to Fu Mingjue, saying that he was Jiang Zhou.

When this was mentioned suddenly, Yao Xingzheng felt inexplicably flustered. He always felt that today's matter was not simple.

Just such a simple sentence explained everything that happened last night.

At this point, it becomes clear - someone added a tire-causing medicine to Cai Fuya's medicine.

Fu Xiuyun was not too touched. From the beginning, he would not let Cai Fuya give birth to this child. Now that the child is gone, he has saved a lot of trouble.

Before he had time to think about it, Fu Xiuyun had already sent someone to bring up the medicine residue.

"I thought she would be obedient, but I didn't expect that just like her brother, she also had a rebellious heart!" Although Cai Yuan knew that the child would not be born, he still felt disgusted with Cai Fuya's self-assertive behavior.

Speaking of Yue Wei, a trace of uneasiness flashed across Tan Xin's face: "Back to the Queen, Yue Wei caused you to have a miscarriage. Your Majesty has already taken care of it. I will take good care of you from now on."

At this time, Yue Wei stood up and said: "Back to Your Majesty, I have lost my appetite recently. I only ate some pumpkin and millet porridge today and didn't eat anything else."

Seeing the gloom in his eyes, Cai Qi couldn't help but feel shocked, and quickly lowered her head: "Yes, father."

Finally, Yue Wei was taken to the Criminal Division and never came out again.

"Yes, he wants to overturn Fu Mingjue's case and has been holding on to Tongzhou."

Ling Youyao rubbed her eyes and asked, "What is it?"

Her brother and nephew have left the capital, and she has no worries from now on.

The news of Cai Fuya's miscarriage quickly reached Cai Yuan's ears.

"Well, it should be."

At that moment, she realized that this was the face-changing technique that Zilan once said.

When Cai Fuya woke up, there was a new face next to her. She was a fair and lovely palace maid with curved eyebrows. She looked young, about fifteen or sixteen years old. Her name was Tan Xin.

Fu Mingjue was slightly startled, and said against her forehead: "There may be wars in the future, but you have to believe that I will not leave you alone. Even if I leave, I will definitely come back."

Ling Youyao buried herself in his arms and was silent for a long time before speaking: "I'm not afraid, I'm just afraid that you will leave."

However, he still asked questions as usual, such as: Why is the child missing? What did Cai Fuya eat today, etc.

Fu Mingjue continued: "The weapons hidden under the Guiya Valley are only part of them. They did this just to trap the Xuanyu Guards and hold the capital in their own hands. From the inside out, I guess what happens next

It’s time to go north.”

"No need," Cai Fuya shook her head. After the child was gone, she felt a lot more relaxed. "Where is Yue Wei?"

Cai Yuan's eyes suddenly darkened, and there was a trace of decisive killing intent: "In that case, let's start with Tongzhou first."

Ling Youyao's mind was a little confused and she speculated: "They want to deal with King Jing'an?"

Ling Youyao felt the coolness and subconsciously dug into Fu Mingjue's arms. Her voice was a little sleepy and soft: "It's not time yet, let's sleep a little longer."

Yao Xingzheng answered: "I have checked your concubine's meal today, and there is nothing abnormal."

But Cai Yuan never did anything he was unsure of. He dared to blatantly hoard weapons and gunpowder in Tongzhou, so he had a countermeasure.

The person she was talking about was the little eunuch who came to deliver meals every day, but Fu Mingjue was not waiting for that meal, but for Jiang Zhou, who was dressed as a little eunuch.

Cai Fuya knew that Yue Wei was innocent, but if you think about it carefully, she was not innocent. Yue Wei was from the Cai family, and her child "died" in Yue Wei's hands. After all, her grandfather couldn't blame anyone else.

Yao Xingzheng suddenly came to his senses and nodded: "Your Majesty, this medicine -"

Fu Mingjue did not deny it: "Yuan Yuxuan came to Beijing early that year just to meet someone. Although he didn't find out who that person was at that time, based on what happened later, I guess it was Cai Yuan."

She underestimated Cai Yuan's ambition, and even more underestimated his courage. He designed to frame Fu Mingjue and make Xuanyu Guards bear the name of rebels. When the troops came to the city, he could use this as an excuse to prevent Xuanyu Guards from going to war.

It's really a good plan.

Yao Xing gathered his thoughts and looked through the dregs of the medicine, and he found a problem inside. But he personally prescribed the medicine, and Yue Wei was one of his own, so what went wrong?

Manager Li had sharp eyes and immediately saw something was wrong and asked: "But what should not be mixed in here?"

Ling Youyao stared at him for a long time. Both his appearance and figure were the same as Zhongxuan's, but his voice had changed. It was not sharp and long, but sonorous and powerful.

Yao Xingzheng sighed with regret and said: "Your Majesty, I am incompetent and cannot keep the child in my mother's belly. Please forgive me."

And who is that person?

Yue Wei is the maid who serves Cai Fuya closely. Everything has to pass through her hands. She is also the one who is responsible for decoction every day. Apart from her, no one can get close to her.

Ling Youyao looked at the flashing light in his eyes, which was weak and bright. She moved her lips and finally just said "ok".

The frost on the eaves gradually melted away, the crystal white color blended into the blue tiles, and the wind had stopped.

In fact, she wanted to tell Fu Mingjue something, but she didn't know where to start. She was afraid that he would believe it, and she was also afraid that he wouldn't believe it. Anyone who heard such a strange and confusing thing would think that she was talking about it.

Nonsense, right?

But these are all facts.

After staying here for too long, she has forgotten her original self, and it becomes increasingly difficult to tell which one is the real her.

But she didn't say anything, she just hugged Fu Mingjue tightly, craving for the last trace of warmth.
