In the evening, Lin Wanyi served the emperor and his son for dinner again.
Not long after the meal, the medicine for the second prince and Lin Wanyi was delivered.
The two of them looked at each other, smiled, and drank to the bottom of the drink.
He held a piece of candied fruit in his mouth to remove the bitter taste, and the emperor looked at the two of them with amusement.
"You drink like water now, but you don't even blink."
As soon as the words came out of my mouth, I felt a little inappropriate.
After all, the two of them would continue to drink medicine, which was also due to his poor protection.
There was a flash of discomfort in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
Lin Wanyi did not miss this look. To be honest, she had poisoned herself.
It's probably like killing a chicken to scare the monkeys.
Seeing the upset look on Yi Fei's face, she immediately asked.
The second prince also nodded in agreement.
The emperor rarely enjoyed the tranquility at this moment.
My grandmother has fainted from crying three or four times at home, and letters from home are constantly being sent to the northwest, but there is still no news.
After thinking for a while, he changed the topic again and said.
"My Majesty, please be patient. I feel that there is room for change in this matter. If the emperor really wants to put the third young master to death, he can just kill him immediately. Why would he have to be arrested and imprisoned?"
Concubine Yifei felt that this was the dilemma.
"My Lady, please don't mess up your position. You are the pillar of our Marquis' Mansion in Shengjing City. The old lady at home is still waiting for your reply, isn't it?"
Concubine Yi is now very annoyed by things at home. Even if the people below know what is going on outside, they would not dare to disturb her easily.
So she didn't know what Mrs. He was talking about.
"Yes, slave, I obey."
She was distressed here when she saw Concubine Bai and Lady He walking in from outside.
"Well, grandma is right. With you here, I feel very relieved."
However, she comes from a merchant family, so the last thing she fears is embarrassment.
"Your Highness, have you heard? Concubine Lin is in great trouble."
Concubine Bai smiled lightly and asked someone to bring a basket of peaches over, and then said.
Smelling this familiar smell and the faint sound of wind in my ears.
So he spoke to ease the situation.
In the past, when she said such words, Concubine Yi would more or less respond.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Lin, the Second Prince is still young. It is time to eat more and sleep more. I see that the time is almost up, so I'd better let him rest."
"What's up?"
"My concubine asked me to pick these freshly from the peach grove. I wanted them to be fresh, so I specially sent some for my wife to try."
Sure enough, someone had tampered with his medicine.
When something like this happens again, it is naturally very unsettling.
After the two of them sat down, Madam He took a sip of tea and said flatteringly.
After the second prince retreated, Lin Wanyi walked to the emperor's side.
Ruyi comforted her at the side and never stopped holding the fan in her hand.
So she still felt a little guilty when the emperor blamed himself.
His words made the emperor's eyes darken.
"Reply? I don't even know how to tell my grandmother about this now."
This hot day is already frustrating and unbearable.
"I heard that Concubine Lin planned to hold a grand birthday banquet for the second prince at the Lotus Lake Pavilion, but was rejected by the emperor. Not only that, she also felt grateful for the filial piety of the second prince, and posthumously named Concubine Su as Concubine Su, and invited the monks from Baolin Temple.
When everyone comes to visit the palace, they have to chant sutras for several days!"
Seeing his expression gradually becoming more serious, you knew that something must be bothering you again.
"That's what you say, but what kind of thing is Yingtian Mansion? It dares to come to my Marquis Mansion to arrest people. The emperor must have issued a death order to investigate strictly behind this. The whole family is dead, so they want to use money
Even if you can't find anyone to take the money, why don't you tell me not to be in a hurry?"
Ruhuan, on the other hand, hurriedly served tea to Concubine Bai and Lady He.
"How is the matter with the third brother?"
She was not favored in the harem to begin with.
We can only take care of ourselves first and then make plans.
Especially with the eldest brother and second brother in the Northwest Army, they are simply incomparable.
Unfortunately, Dr. Dou has not yet figured out what the poison is, so it is difficult to give him the right medicine for a while.
My grandfather was so wise and mighty, but what my third brother did was ruin the reputation of the Northwest Marquis Mansion, the Liu family's achievements that they had sacrificed hundreds of lives for over the years, and their reputation among the people.
On the other side, Concubine Yi had been anxious and angry for several days.
But after all, he is a blood relative of the family. He is also the eldest sister to her on weekdays. The eldest sister calls her short, how could Concubine Yi really watch him die?
The three of them chatted for a long time. Seeing that the time was almost up, Nanny Du wanted to take the second prince back to the backyard to rest.
Aunt Du smiled rarely, but her previous seriousness and fortitude melted away a lot.
She never asked any questions, she just quietly got on the bed and massaged the emperor's body to relax him as before.
Thinking that the third brother was brought up under the personal care of his grandmother, if something happened to him, wouldn't it be inevitable for his grandmother to escape the same fate?
In the past few days, she had been so worried that she couldn't eat anything, and she had lost some weight.
"The tea here must be particularly delicious. I drink several cups every time I come here."
But how should she explain it to her grandmother?
Ruyi walked up to the little eunuchs carrying the baskets, greeted them and walked outside.
"Actually, the medicines prescribed by the imperial doctors are not very bitter. It's just that I used to drink them in small sips with a spoon. The bitter taste makes people sick. It's better to drink it in one breath. By the time your mouth reacts, the medicine will be in your stomach.
.”
"Yes, the medicine cooked here by Madam Lin is much better than the ones cooked by the mothers before. The medicine before was so bitter that I couldn't drink much."
Logically speaking, this kind of black sheep should really be dealt with properly.
Concubine Yi frowned when she heard this.
Being able to reach the current position is entirely due to the achievements of the Liu family.
After hearing this, Bai Bin also chuckled, with quite a bit of pride in watching the excitement in her eyes!
Even if she wanted to beg the emperor to show mercy and spare her third brother's life, she would not have the chance to blow the wind.
"Mother, what's going on?"
"Well, I'm interested. Just accept it if you wish."
Regarding this cousin from her third uncle's family, she sometimes felt that her grandmother was overly doting on her and was very unworthy of the stage.
"Why are you here?"
Concubine Bai was the first to ask. Concubine Yi put away her sad expression and calmed down before asking.
But there was no response today, which made Madam He a little uncomfortable.
Concubine Yi's sad face has not changed since she learned that he was captured by Ying Tianfu.
Why did he suddenly come up with the idea of pursuing Su's concubine title?
Could it be that he did it on purpose to show her?
After all, the only two people in the harem who have given birth to a prince so far are she and Concubine Su.
Now that Concubine Su has been promoted to the imperial concubine, even though she will be extinguished upon death, she will still be on par with her in terms of status. So what if she doesn't have a special title.
