"Xiu Yi, are you awake?" Ming Lanruo looked at the small couch beside her.
Xu Xiuyi held the bed and sat up slowly: "Well..."
"Jing Ming, bring water." Ming Lanruo ordered.
Jing Ming brought water over, and Ming Lanruo helped Xu Xiuyi take a sip.
Xu Xiuyi drank some water and felt that she had recovered. She asked in a low voice: "Sister, what's wrong with me?"
Ming Lanruo briefly told her the story of being bewitched.
Xu Xiuyi rubbed her temples: "In other words, the prince probably teamed up with Chu Yuanbai to bewitch me and force me to become a concubine?"
"Also, King Xiao Jingnan wants to use this matter to find out if the Gu God is in my sister?"
If Minglan saw that she was thinking clearly and reacting quickly, she knew that she was no longer seriously injured.
Ming Lanruo said warmly: "You don't have to worry, your poison has been removed, and the person who gave you the poison will suffer backlash."
Xu Xiuyi's eyes were a little complicated: "Father is indeed right. Although the prince is talented, he is suspicious, narrow-minded, and willful. He is exactly the same as your majesty. It is definitely not a blessing for the people of the world to have such a prince!"
One Ming Emperor is enough for everyone, but having another prince would be a real disaster!
Ming Lanruo looked at Xu Xiuyi and was a little surprised. Although this girl had been helping her.
But she has always helped each other in private. Today, Xu Xiuyi can tell Master Xu such disrespectful words to herself. It seems...
"Master Xu, do you have other plans in mind?" Ming Lanruo asked Xu Xiuyi frankly without covering up.
Xu Xiuyi looked at Ming Lanruo, nodded and said: "Sister Ming, my father has been helping each other in the court with Duke Ming. Although he is conservative and cautious, he also knows what justice is. We, the Xu family, will fully help!"
Ming Lanruo was in a good mood and held Xu Xiuyi's hand tightly: "Although the road is long and difficult, I will not do anything I am not sure about, and I will never let down Mr. Xu's wishes!"
Her father is here, the Xu family is here, plus the Mo family, almost all the powerful civil servants in the court are behind her.
In the future, the number of people available in the DPRK will greatly increase!
Xu Xiuyi looked at her seriously: "Sister Ming, if one day the sun and the moon change the sky, I hope that women will no longer be trapped in the inner house, but can also enter the hall, do business, and enter the court."
Ming Lanruo nodded, her eyes firm and clear: "I will definitely do it!"
She patted Xu Xiuyi's shoulder lightly: "Now that the prince's plan has failed, and Yinhu's identity is the prince of Fanbang, he will definitely not dare to make plans for you again!"
The prince had previously bewitched Xu Xiuyi, but later it was discovered that the identity of the silver fox was different, and Xu Xiuyi was now named the head of Xiaoxian County.
Once there is a change in the marriage because of him as the prince, no matter who is right or wrong, he will be affected.
That's why he regretted what he did, which was equivalent to stealing chicken but losing rice.
Xu Xiuyi is a smart woman, and of course she understands that she no longer has to worry about the prince for the time being.
But……
"But Silver Fox, Prince Suleiman... what are we going to do about his marriage to me? Since he is protecting me because of Master Qiantose's face, I don't want to embarrass him. When can we dissolve our engagement?"
When Yin Hu spoke, Xu Xiuyi was actually in a state of not waking up just now, so she naturally took Yin Hu's words into her heart.
Ming Lanruo paused, looked at Xu Xiuyi and said thoughtfully: "The emperor has just granted a marriage, and your marriage to him cannot be dissolved for the time being. Let's wait and see."
Xu Xiuyi was silent for a while: "Okay."
After hearing what Yinhu said, she felt a little uncomfortable for some reason.
She shook her head. She was really confused. She had clearly planned not to marry for the rest of her life, so how could she be shaken by a romantic foreign man?
…
Let's talk about this, the assassination of Chu Yuan, the king of Xiaojingnan, in the Baileng Palace immediately caused an uproar in the palace.
After searching for a whole day and night without finding the assassin, Emperor Ming angrily scolded the commander of the imperial army who was on duty.
"Damn it, who is killing people so recklessly in the palace? Will my head be moved one day?"
Emperor Ming smashed the inkstone in his hand angrily.
Lord Xu, the minister of Dali Temple, stood silently. His Majesty was not worried about King Xiao Jingnan, but rather worried about his own assassination.
Liu Zhaoyi gracefully fed him a bowl of ice-cold pure sugar water, and said softly——
"Your Majesty, don't be angry. I heard that King Xiao Jingnan was almost tortured to death. This is not like what ordinary assassins would do. It seems like seeking personal revenge."
Emperor Ming frowned, and he thought it made sense, but he still felt a little uneasy: "But the assassin can enter the palace, but he can't be found. It's really worrying!"
As he said that, he looked at his father-in-law: "Go and invite Jiu Qiansui into the palace!"
He and his father-in-law stepped forward to salute, and whispered in Emperor Ming's ear: "Your Majesty, Qiantai Master is currently investigating the case of the bloody remnants of Northeast Xinjiang, and he temporarily left the city the day before yesterday."
When Emperor Ming heard this, he immediately said: "That's all. There is no need for Cang Aiqing to investigate such matters as the assassination of King Jingnan."
Compared with the assassins who assassinated King Jingnan, it was of course more important to eliminate the red-blooded remnants.
As he spoke, he looked at Mr. Xu: "Dali Temple is assisting the Forbidden Army in searching for the assassin of King Jingnan this time, and must try its best to appease the three southwestern provinces."
"Yes." Mr. Xu said with a calm expression, cupping his fists.
Although he was no longer worried about being assassinated, Emperor Ming still frowned.
The old King Jingnan once made a contribution in his battle to win the throne, but now King Xiao Jingnan has trouble as soon as he comes to the capital.
As for the three southwestern provinces, I still don’t know what to think.
Do you think he has ulterior motives, such as cutting down the vassal clan?
The old King Jingnan was just sick, not dead. What if the young King Jingnan died here and the old King Jingnan thought he was going to cut down the vassal and became rebellious?
Emperor Ming's eyebrows knitted tightly again. It seemed that he had better wait for Cang Qiao to come back and have a good discussion with him.
It really doesn't work...
A sinister light flashed in his eyes - then let Cang Qiao send someone to see the old King Jingnan off.
All those who threaten his throne must die.
However, there is still work to be done on the surface.
Emperor Ming ordered: "Send the best imperial doctors to King Xiaojingnan's post house."
He and his father-in-law nodded respectfully: "Yes."
My father-in-law and I left the house and went directly to Qingyun Hall.
When the eunuch at the door saw him coming, he immediately bowed and saluted: "My father-in-law, my master is waiting for you inside."
When I entered the Qingyun Hall with my father-in-law, I smelled the fragrance of roses, and then I saw a slender figure changing into a loose white muslin robe of a hidden scholar under the waiter of Xiao Qizi.
But that face was still Cang Qiao's delicate and cold face that concealed evil.
"How is the prince's condition?" Cang Qiao asked indifferently, motioning to Xiao Qizi to pull up his hair.
He Gongzheng said: "The informant in the East Palace said that he was vomiting blood and could not get up, but he refused to call in the imperial doctor and only invited the doctor in from outside."
Cang Qiao smiled half-heartedly and said, "It's because the poisonous bugs have eaten me back, so I don't dare to ask an imperial doctor."
He nodded with his father-in-law: "Yes."
Cang Qiao narrowed his eyes and suddenly smiled faintly: "The prince doesn't need the annex for the time being anyway. Let's have someone burn down the prince's annex. Doesn't he like to hide people in there?"
