Chapter 121 Xiao Weijing will pull Shen Ning back when he dies
Before arriving at Yu Qingxuan, Lin Wanyue saw the servants carrying He Qixuan back who was seriously injured and unconscious.
After learning that his subordinates had blocked King Ping Nan's carriage, his suspicions became even stronger.
Concubine Yi stayed up all night, sitting in front of the couch and guarding Xiao Weijing.
In both past and present lives, she was so beautiful that she looked so pitiful and pitiful. No wonder the Dog Emperor would never forget her until his death.
Looking at Yifei's face, Lin Wanyue's painful memories came flooding back like a tide, and her resentment kept rolling in her heart.
Or she was too emotional, and Concubine Yi quickly noticed her presence.
Lin Wanyue quickly calmed down, and Shi Shiran approached and saluted, "I've met your empress."
Concubine Yi was in poor spirits and asked someone to give her a seat.
After a few words of greeting, Lin Wanyue got straight to the point, "Mother, I know the whereabouts of the princess."
Yifei was surprised, "Where is it?"
"Prince Pingnan's Mansion."
Speaking of King Pingnan, Concubine Yi frowned slightly, "The guards just reported back and the doctors from the He family did not find Shen Ning in King Pingnan's carriage."
Lin Wanyue's expression was subtle, "If Prince Pingnan has an open heart, why doesn't he let that woman reveal her true face?"
The guard reported everything in detail, and Concubine Yi's face instantly turned pale, "You mean, the woman who had sex with King Pingnan in the carriage was Shen Ning?"
"People's daughters dare not speak nonsense, but the princess once rescued King Pingnan on the street. The situation was critical at that time. The princess broke the rule of men and women not being intimate and took off King Pingnan's clothes..."
Lin Wanyue noticed the change in her expression and added fuel to the fire: "This matter was widely spread at that time, and the emperor even summoned the prince to the palace to listen to the lecture. However, the emperor's uncle was senior, so the matter was ignored.
King Pingnan was kind and generous, and he repaid his kindness. Otherwise, why would he happen to pass by during the curfew time, and the princess disappeared with him.
The princess has not given birth, and it is a royal rule to bury her. The only one who dares to compete with this rule is King Pingnan in the capital."
She pretended to be coy, "Mother, I have no right to be pregnant with the prince's flesh and blood. It is reasonable for the princess to be unhappy, but curing the prince is the most important thing now. I want to pay a visit early tomorrow morning and invite the princess back.
It’s just that I am of a lowly status, and I am afraid that I cannot even touch the threshold of Prince Pingnan’s palace, so I would like to ask the empress to give me a letter so that I can submit it to the emperor’s uncle.”
Concubine Yi looked confused and spoke after a moment, "I will arrange this matter, so you can rest assured and raise the baby."
Lin Wanyue lowered her eyebrows and comforted her eyes, saying with relief: "Empress, the prince will be fine. You have to take care of your own health. Let the daughter of the people guard the prince."
"No need." Concubine Yi said calmly, "I want to protect Prince Jin."
She dismissed Lin Wanyue and stubbornly stayed in front of the couch, looking at Xiao Weijing's sleeping face in a daze.
After walking out of Yuqingxuan, Lin Wanyue looked back, her eyes filled with endless hatred and her nails dug deeply into her flesh.
It took a lot of effort for her to resist the urge to stab Yi Fei to death.
…
Strangely enough, during the time when Xiao Weijing didn't burp, Shen Ning slept comfortably on the high bed with soft pillows.
Now that he had burped, she started to have nightmares.
I opened my eyes in a daze, feeling completely groggy. I didn't expect the villain to die like this.
It was almost dawn outside, and with palpitations, she turned around and wanted to continue sleeping, when she suddenly felt a chill on the back of her neck.
Her heart skipped a beat, and Shen Ning, whose body was stiff, slowly came back, her pupils shaking in an instant.
Xiao Weijing stood in front of the bed at some point, staring down at her, his eyes as cold as blades.
Shen Ning jumped up in fright, "There is always a wrongdoer and a debtor. The person who harmed you is Lin Wanyue. Don't come to me."
Xiao Weijing sneered with a crooked mouth, suddenly rushed forward and grabbed her neck, straddling her and pinching her with both hands until she looked ferocious, "Shen Ning, go to hell!"
She resisted desperately, punching, kicking, biting and tearing.
This damn ghost really wants to support her even to death.
Shen Ning was unable to do what she wanted and was pinched until she foamed at the mouth, "Ah..."
The body suddenly flew into the air and fell heavily to the ground.
With stars in her eyes, she got up in embarrassment, only to realize that it was already daylight, and that the horror just now was just a nightmare.
Physically exhausted and mentally exhausted, Shen Ning wiped cold sweat from his forehead.
The maid knocked on the door and said, "Sir, Your Majesty would like to treat you to breakfast."
After freshening up, Shen Ning went to the dining hall, where Xiao Yunqi was already waiting.
The breakfast is very rich, with more than a dozen varieties, which looks exquisite and delicious.
"I eat relatively lightly. If you are not used to it, you can ask the kitchen to rearrange it."
Shen Ning was flattered, "Thanks to the emperor, this is the first time in my life that I have eaten such a sumptuous meal."
This is not a lie. In her previous life, she was rushing to work and dealt with casually at street stalls. After coming here, she is not so particular, and Xiao Weijing is not picky about food and eats whatever is available.
The exquisiteness of Pingnan Palace can be seen everywhere, even the breakfast is five-star.
It's just that Xiao Yunqi followed the rule of not saying anything when eating, and the atmosphere was quite awkward. Shen Ning was even careful when eating porridge, for fear of making any noise, unlike before when she glared at Xiao Weijing and dared to bang the table when she was offended.
Eaters are short-tongued, and predators are soft-handed.
After breakfast, Shen Ning was about to treat Xiao Yunqi, but Uncle Zeng hurried in with someone.
I saw that the man was covered in blood. As soon as he stepped over the threshold, he fell to the ground and spat out a few mouthfuls of black blood.
Uncle Zeng was very anxious, "Sir, please help me."
Shen Ning rushed over and was about to take off his baggage for emergency rescue, but the man held on to the baggage tightly and looked up at Xiao Yunqi, "My lord, my lord, I will fulfill my mission."
After saying that, his head tilted and he died.
Even though he was dead, he still held on to the robe tightly. Uncle Zeng couldn't move it even after pulling it more than a dozen times.
Shen Ning pressed twice on the acupuncture points of the corpse and successfully removed the baggage.
Seeing the contents of the baggage, Uncle Zeng's pupils were shocked, "My lord, the blood unicorn has been found."
Shen Ning, "..."
This is obviously a red coral, why did it become a blood unicorn?
But her attention was focused on the dead man, putting on waterproof oilcloth gloves and examining his wounds.
There were dozens of sword wounds on the body of the deceased, and he was bleeding from all the orifices of his body due to the poison, which clearly shows that the perpetrator was ruthless.
From what he said before he died, it was not difficult to guess that the other party was coming for the blood unicorn, and the blood unicorn happened to be the key ingredient in the Nine Turns of Resurrection Pill.
So Xiao Weijing didn't lie. There really were people who didn't want the emperor's uncle to continue to live, and even went so far as to assassinate the people sent out to look for medicinal materials.
This person did not care about life and death and came back with his last breath, which shows his loyalty.
A chill ran down Shen Ning's spine. The people behind the scenes didn't even let go of the medicinal materials, let alone her, the ghost doctor's apprentice.
Ten thousand taels of gold is indeed not that easy to get. I am afraid that if you take it, you will lose your life.
Xiao Yunqi looked solemn and ordered: "Bury him well and make arrangements for his family."
Uncle Zeng ordered people to carry the body away and arranged to collect the pension from the accounting office.
Seeing that Shen Ning's expression was not good, he quickly comforted him: "Sir, don't worry, the prince has arranged someone to protect you secretly, and nothing will go wrong."
Wealth and honor are sought in danger, not to mention that now your life is in the hands of others.
Shen Ning's mood was complicated, but the most important thing now was to save Xiao Yunqi's life.
She came back to her senses and reminded: "Uncle Emperor, this is red coral, not blood unicorn."
