Although the emperor said that Prince Zheng was fine, Yingluo did not see him safe, and the string in her heart remained tense.
Squeak! The door opened lightly to both sides. With a heavy heart, Yingluo walked into the room with heavy steps. The bedroom here was several times larger than Nianxinyuan.
There was no trace of Prince Zheng, only a guard guarding the room. The guard Yingluo had seen was the secret guard who protected them last night. They were worried about the Emperor, and even less worried about the Queen Mother.
Cheng Feng took the initiative to step forward and said, "I have met Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
"How is he, Your Majesty?" His eyes were red and full of worry.
"Princess, you will know after you go in and take a look."
Stepping through the middle space, Yingluo walked uneasily towards the inner hall. She picked up the thin curtain and saw that the face on the couch was as pale as wax. The originally bright red lips had no trace of blood, and the cinnabar between the brows was eclipsed. Tears instantly fell from her eyes.
fell down.
I never expected that King Zheng would be so weak. His body was wrapped in layers of white gauze, and his injuries could not be seen.
He hurriedly untied his quilt, checked his pulse, and wanted to know the extent of King Zheng's injuries, but saw that both of King Zheng's palms were also bandaged.
Stretching out his hand to explore his pulse, Prince Zheng found that the internal energy in his body was almost exhausted. The thin and weak pulse was indeed caused by excessive blood loss. However, even if the prince was injured, it would be impossible for him to shed so much blood to fight against Prince Zheng.
He didn't know how he could put himself in such a miserable state.
Her eyes overflowed with love and affection, and her cold fingertips slid across his pale cheek, and unspeakable pain came over her heart, "Your Majesty, how could this happen? In Yingluo's heart, Your Majesty is a perfect person, and it is impossible for him to become like this.
."
When Yingluo saw that King Zheng had no reaction, she became even more sad and said: "When I entered the palace, the prince tried every means to make things difficult for me. Yingluo has not taken revenge yet. You promised to take me to visit the beautiful mountains and rivers, and you promised to draw my eyebrows for me."
Combing your hair, you haven't done any of this, so you can't be like this."
Even though I was bashing my words, tears fell like rain. I lay on his body and cried until I couldn't make a sound." The tears stained the gauze on his chest.
How could Si Wushang let himself fall into such a miserable situation? He would always keep himself awake. He had taken the pill long ago and his body was very weak, but it was not as fatal as Yingluo thought.
He deliberately asked Cheng Feng not to tell her about his injury, just to see what kind of judgment she would make when faced with this situation.
Seeing how sad she was, she slightly hooked her fingers, her chest rose and fell slightly, and she breathed a sigh of relief. Yingluo sensed that Prince Zheng had reacted, and stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears on her face.
"My lord, you're awake."
"You little shrew, if I don't wake up, you will accuse me of being useless."
Seeing that he woke up, Yingluo smiled through tears and continued to scold: "Your Majesty, don't you know how worried I was when I saw your Majesty was injured just now, but Your Majesty actually teased Yingluo."
I knew she did it on purpose, "Since you know I'm testing you, tell me what you saw?"
However, Yingluo rolled her eyes at him with an angry look. It must be okay for him to be so happy despite being so seriously injured.
"The prince must have done this to save the emperor. The assassination last night was not only to lure the snake out of the hole, but also to set up today's situation. There should not be a main force to intercept him halfway last night, and the assassination tonight should be
It's a lie, it's a mystery set up by the emperor to block everyone's mouth."
Seeing her certainty in everything she said, "Then why do you conclude that there was no main assassination force last night?"
"Your Majesty, after the assassination, the prince will definitely step up his guard, and the assassin will definitely not act rashly. Moreover, that person is not running after the emperor, but towards Prince Zheng. He will definitely wait until Prince Zheng is at his weakest after he treats the emperor.
In this way, the prince is in the most danger at this time."
Si Wushang stopped asking him any more. She must have guessed that it was the Queen Mother who had done it. After this incident, the Emperor's health would be restored and his life would be safe within a year. The Queen Mother wanted to get rid of the root cause.
"You're going to do this?"
Yingluo's expression was stagnant, and the prince actually asked her what she should do.
I just realized that he was acting again and I felt really angry. He said he wouldn't lie to me, so he said those scolding words.
At this time, she calmed down and after many layers of analysis, in addition to love, she felt more worried. She knew his intentions and allowed herself to see the current situation clearly.
Her eyes gradually filled with tenderness, "Yingluo will always be by your side."
Si Wushang laughed loudly, but it touched his heart and made him breathless. The gauze wrapped around his chest actually overflowed with blood, "Is it so ridiculous? The wound is still overflowing with blood? If you don't treat the wound, it will stick to it.
Together." Yingluo wanted to reach out and bandage her wound again.
Si Wushang held her hand and said, "Don't worry about it! It's just a flesh wound."
Jian Yingluo looked nervous. Now that she had seen the situation clearly, it was time to tell her about the bet.
"Luo'er, do you still remember that bet?"
It's been a long time since I heard him calling my nickname. In the past, calling it out of his mouth was false, but now it sounds particularly touching.
"Your Majesty, I have to tell you the terms of the bet."
Si Wushang nodded, "Exactly!"
"What is it?" Yingluo wanted to know what exactly was the game he had laid out for so long?
"From today on, I will have Luo'er to protect me! How about it?"
Yingluo raised her head in shock, her eyes full of confusion, "What did the prince say? Yingluo came to protect the prince, how is this possible? Isn't it the prince who will protect Yingluo for the rest of his life?"
"Luo'er, you should know that the Queen Mother wants to kill this king. If I want to protect myself, I must not show off my edge or show any interest in government affairs. The emperor will be healthy after this treatment, but he can only live for one year.
The Queen Mother colluded with the Lin family. If something happened to the emperor, the Queen Mother would definitely intervene in politics, and Yu'er became the puppet emperor. The Queen Mother had already started to attack the Murong family, and the Murong family was a thorn in the Queen Mother's side.
The Queen Mother is dissatisfied with the Murong family. This can be seen from the last rumor incident. Now the Queen Mother seems to be really deliberately isolating the mother-son relationship between Yuer and her sister. This summer vacation is proof.
King Zheng wants to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger, push himself on the table, and accomplish what he wants to do for him. King Zheng, are you being hypocritical or just pretending?
"How can Yingluo, a mere prostitute, protect the prince? As the saying goes, the first bird is shot, so why does the prince put Yingluo's safety at risk?"
"Luo'er, as I am your husband, I naturally want to protect you."
Yingluo said coldly: "Your Majesty is really considerate!"
Si Wushang knew that Yingluo had misunderstood him, "This was originally a plan I made when I married you. I could have not said it, or I could have made you slowly walk into my trap. But I didn't want to do that.
, I didn’t expect to fall in love with you.”
"Do you know how difficult it is for me to take off my disguise? Those are already my instincts to protect myself. My life was exchanged for the life of my mother and concubine. I want to live well. Everything I do is not wanting to
Let the country of Cheng Han fall by the wayside."
Yingluo was so heartbroken by Gong Yichu's betrayal that she was so resistant. Seeing the blood on Prince Zheng's heart becoming more and more colorful, she felt very distressed.
He hurried forward and said, "Stop talking and stop the bleeding from the wound. It's not that Yingluo won't help the prince, she's just afraid that the prince is using me like him, rather than sincerely helping me."
"Fool, can't you see that I have good intentions? Every decision you make will change my destiny. I have put everything in your hands, so what do you have to worry about?"
