On the way back to Beijing, Shen Yuyu and Emperor Qi Heng had already gotten along like father and daughter. Now that Emperor Qi Heng was in danger, she was also very anxious.
Seeing her resolute attitude, He Mang knew that he could not stop her, so he had to order the coachman to go to the palace.
"Don't worry, cousin, brother-in-law Ah Xun will be back soon." Jiang Yuyu squeezed Shen Yuyu's back to make her relax.
Shen Yuyu hummed, but felt extremely uneasy.
How did Xia Luoluo murder Ah Xun and Ah Feng back then? Shen Yue knew her ruthlessness better than anyone else.
Emperor Qi Heng is so old, and he is still possessed by a poison. Once something happens, it may cause irreparable consequences. Although she is pregnant, it does not affect her ability to perform medicine. This is why she insists on entering the palace.
Jiang Yuyu knew that he could not dissuade Shen Yuyu from entering the palace, so he warned carefully, "Cousin, you have to calm down when you enter the palace later. You are still carrying a baby in your belly. Safety comes first, you know?"
"I know." Shen Yue nodded solemnly, gently supporting her pregnant belly with both hands.
This is the love knot between her and Xiu, which is more important than her life, so they will not be put in danger.
As soon as the group appeared outside the palace, a deputy general from the Red Flame Battalion came to greet them.
"General He wants to enter the palace?"
"Yes." He Mang nodded, "The person in the car is Princess Ye, please let her go."
However, the deputy general did not let him go directly. Instead, he ordered his subordinates to bring hot water and handed over a hot towel.
"If you have offended General He, please wash your face. This is what General Wang Chang has ordered. Everyone who enters the palace must be checked to see if they are disguised."
"Yes, yes, I forgot about this." He Mang took the towel and wiped his face seriously.
After wiping his face with no problem, he handed the towel to the lieutenant, patted his shoulder and told him, "Remember, everyone, including His Highness the Night King, must check to see if they are disguised.
'Wei Xuanyuan and 'Prime Minister Zhou''s disguise skills are too good, so it's better to be careful.
"Yes, General He." The deputy general responded loudly.
After He Mang and his party were inspected at the palace gate, they took a carriage directly into the palace.
The road was slippery in the snow, so riding a chariot was dangerous, but a horse-drawn carriage was still safer, so we made an exception.
After entering the palace, Shen Yuyu glanced outside the car through the car window and saw that both sides of the palace road were hung with various gorgeous palace lanterns, which were very festively decorated.
It seems that before Emperor Qi Heng took Wang Chang and others to take control of the palace, the empress dowager Xia Luoluo was preparing to celebrate the New Year.
There was war and snow disaster in the south, and people were struggling to survive, but she didn't care about the lives of the people. If such a person took control of the world, the Zhou Dynasty would be in chaos.
When I was passing by the East Palace, I saw the imperial guards leading a group of women out. These women were carrying burdens and dressing up as palace maids. They were all going to be sent out of the palace.
The entire East Palace had been emptied out after Wei Yi was imprisoned, and it was quiet inside.
Guards patrols can be seen everywhere outside, and the atmosphere is quite solemn.
Soon the group arrived outside the Jade Phoenix Palace.
The three outer floors of the Jade Phoenix Hall were surrounded by imperial guards. As soon as Niu Zhi saw a carriage approaching, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet them.
"General He, why did you let the princess enter the palace?
He recognized the carriage Shen Yuyu was riding in at a glance. It was ordinary in width and height, but it was built by His Highness the Night King himself.
"I met General Wang Chang on the way back to the palace. The princess learned that the matter in the palace was coming and she couldn't stop him." He Mang lowered his voice with helplessness on his face.
After saying that, he looked at Niu Zhi with a puzzled look on his face, "Why is General Niu's face turning blue? What's going on?"
"It's okay, it's freezing." Niu Zhi touched his face and said hey, but he didn't intend to tell anyone about his poisoning. There were enough things going on, and he really didn't want the princess to worry about his poisoning.
However, the toxicity of the poison was really not overshadowed. After taking just one breath, I felt chest tightness, headache, and coughing up blood. I had to hold on for a whole night.
At this time, Shen Yuyu got out of the carriage with the support of Jiang Yuyu and Ling'er, and walked over with her pregnant belly.
Niu Zhi hurriedly saluted respectfully, "I have met Princess Ye. Princess, you have worked hard all the way."
"General Niu, there is no need to be polite. It's even harder for you in the cold weather." Shen Yuyu looked at Niu Zhi and the other soldiers who were covered in frost and snow, with a slightly moved expression.
Although Niu Zhi is a surrendered general, he is an upright and righteous general and is a respectable general.
He is loyal to Shen Yue and the Night King, and Shen Yue is completely at ease with him.
"This is what subordinates and soldiers should do." Niu Zhi shook the snow off his body and raised his head.
Shen Yuyu was shocked when she saw his face.
"What happened? Why was General Niu poisoned? Ling'er, go and get my medical kit."
Just now she noticed that something was wrong with Wang Chang's expression, and she thought something big had happened to make Wang Chang look so ugly. Now when she thought about it, she realized that both General Wang and General Niu had been poisoned.
Niu Zhi hurriedly said: "Don't worry, my Majesty, I'm fine." As he said this, he couldn't help coughing violently and quickly covered his mouth with a handkerchief.
After wiping it, he took the handkerchief away, but there was still a trace of blood on the corner of his lips.
Needless to say, the poisoning was quite deep.
Shen Yuyu hurriedly said in command, "General Niu, stretch your hand over here.'
"Here, I'm fine, I can't die." As soon as General Niu finished speaking, he was frightened by Shen Yuhu's serious expression, and he quickly rolled up his sleeves and stretched out his hand obediently.
Shen Yuyu hurriedly felt his pulse.
The kidnapping of Emperor Qi Heng was more urgent than being poisoned, which could kill someone at any time.
After taking Niu Zhi's pulse, Shen Yuyu said with a solemn expression: "This poison is very difficult to cure, but don't worry, I will definitely be able to develop an antidote to detoxify you after the matter at hand is resolved."
She didn't plant the living bone grass that can cure hundreds of poisons, otherwise she wouldn't have said such a thing.
These words made this tough man on the battlefield so moved that his eyes turned red. The Night King and the Night Princess were really kind to their subordinates, and they loved and cared for them like family members.
It is a blessing for the people of the Zhou Kingdom to have them here.
"It's okay, my subordinates can hold on." Niu Zhi choked with sobs.
“Don’t force yourself when things go wrong, it’s wise to seek help.”
As she spoke, Shen Yuyu took the medicine box handed over by Ling'er, took out a brocade box from it, opened it, and gave two fruits of the magic flower to Niu Zhi.
"Take this medicine first to suppress the poison. I can detoxify it and everything will be fine.'
"Okay, thank you, Princess." Niu Zhi hurriedly took the medicine and drank it with shame.
After taking the medicine, his symptoms were relieved a lot. At this time, he thought of Wang Chang and said anxiously: "General Wang has also been poisoned, will he be okay?'
"No." Shen Yuyu said, "Axun also has this kind of drug that can suppress the toxicity. He should be fine."
Niu Zhi felt relieved after hearing this.
After settling this matter, Shen Yuyu turned his eyes to the Jade Phoenix Hall, where the door was closed, and his face darkened.
"The emperor is kidnapped inside? How is the situation?"
