The whole family travels with me

The melons and fruits with rainwater were carried into the house. Huang Ye's eyes lit up again, and his saliva almost flowed down as he watched eagerly.

Concubine Rou was distressed and angry, and quickly asked the maid to wash it.

After a while, Lily came in with a large fruit platter, and Huang Ye quickly invited Concubine Rou to eat together.

The three of them sat together, eating fruit and chatting, which seemed like a peaceful time.

When it rains, it gets dark quickly, and the road outside is no longer visible after midnight. The pouring rain blocks the view, and even the moon gate with the lantern hanging on it cannot be seen clearly.

Huang Ye sighed: "This kind of weather is suitable for hiding in the house and reading or dazing."

Concubine Rou rarely nodded in agreement.

At this moment, Amber took a few maids and started serving dishes, which was Huang Ye's favorite beef hot pot.

Concubine Rou asked casually: "Or the beef from Pingnan Palace?"

Huang Ye nodded, "Besides Prince Pingnan's Mansion, who else sells beef? If it is inconvenient for the mother to eat in the palace, she can come out of the palace and come to our place. We can eat as much as she wants."

Concubine Rou chuckled. She didn't pay attention to food and drink, but she was willing to cooperate with the children's mischief.

The three of them were cooking hot pot and listening to the sound of rain outside, feeling comfortable and comfortable.

A thunder sounded again, Huang Ye was so frightened that he shrank his head and even dropped his chopsticks.

Ji Ming frowned, "I don't know what happened today. It's already happened twice."

Huang Ye was so frightened that he immediately lost his appetite and just wanted to sleep.

Ji Ming also put down the dishes and took her to the back room.

Concubine Rou ordered people to remove the table, and just after walking around the room a few times, she saw Lu Kang running in despite the heavy rain, dripping from head to toe, "Mother, it's not good! Something happened to the king!"

Concubine Rou was stunned for a moment, and without even asking what was going on, she loudly ordered: "Hurry! Drive back to the palace!"

Ji Ming helped Huang Ye out. After knowing that something happened in the palace, she quickly asked Ji Ming to follow.

Ji Ming hesitated, "I'm leaving, what will you do?"

Huang Ye rolled his eyes, "I'm six months pregnant and I'm about to give birth. There are Lu Yi and Zhong Qiong in the house. What can happen? You guys, on the other hand, must protect yourselves. I always feel a little uneasy."

"Okay! Stay in the house and wait for me to come back!" Ji Ming shook Huang Ye's hand, gritted his teeth and left with Concubine Rou.

Huang Ye continued to go back and lie down, but couldn't fall asleep no matter what. He always felt that something was going to happen, so he quickly called Zhong Qiong, "Ask Lu Yi and Lu Er to check outside the palace gate, and stay with the prince at any time, and come back as soon as there is any news." "

Zhong Qiong had just been taught a lesson by Concubine Rou and hesitated, "Princess, Lu Yi and Lu Er are staying in the palace to protect you, they can't leave."

"I said they can leave if they can!"

Huang Ye couldn't help but Zhong Qiong had no choice but to do as he was told.

Concubine Rou and Ji Ming were stopped as soon as they arrived at the palace gate.

Ji Ming looked gloomy, "You dare to stop the imperial concubine from returning to the palace?"

The soldier bowed his hands and saluted, "My dear concubine, Your Highness, it is not that my subordinates are not allowing you two to enter the palace, but the king has given an order that no one is allowed to enter or leave the palace, and my subordinates are also following orders. Please don't blame me and your highness."

Concubine Rou and Prince You looked at each other and said helplessly: "Get in the carriage first and talk later."

Inside Lingxiao Palace.

Imperial Physician Cui and several other imperial physicians took turns to treat King Yan, and basins of blood and water were brought out. Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian who came over looked panicked, as if they were anxious and anxious. They looked at each other from time to time, and then looked at Ling Xiao. After a while, he looked at the palace gate again.Liu De came out, and the two concubines immediately surrounded him, "Eunuch Liu, how is the king's condition?"

Liu De stretched his neck and looked for a while, then asked: "Your Majesty, why are you not here?"

The two concubines looked at each other and shook their heads. They had just forgotten to pay attention to Concubine Rou.

An imperial doctor came out and said, "The imperial concubine may still be in Prince You's Mansion."

"Prince You's Mansion? How come it's so perfect? ​​She went to Prince You's Mansion just after something happened in the palace?" Concubine Xian rolled her eyes and spoke in a strange tone.

The imperial doctor said expressionlessly: "Today, people from Prince You's Mansion went to Chengxi Palace to deliver news that Princess You was pregnant. The imperial concubine was anxious, and braved the heavy rain to ask Wei Chen and others to go to Prince You's Mansion to ask for Princess You's pulse. Wei Chen Something happened before I even had time to report to the king when I returned to the palace. Perhaps the rain was too heavy and delayed the imperial concubine’s return to the palace.”

"Report! Eunuch Liu, the noble concubine and His Royal Highness Prince You have arrived outside the palace."

Liu De was delighted, "Hurry! Let us go quickly!"

The expressions of Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian changed.

"Eunuch Liu, the king clearly does not allow anyone to enter or leave the palace, how dare you violate it?" Concubine Shu shouted loudly.

Liu Depi smiled and said, "What Concubine Shu said is absolutely true. Naturally, the Za family dare not go against the rules. Everything is the king's will."

Concubine Shu's face turned pale and she suddenly looked at the gate of Lingxiao Palace, "The king is awake?"

Liu De smiled meaningfully and did not answer.

Ji Ming helped Concubine Rou up the steps, and saw the jealous and unwilling eyes of Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian from a distance. The two of them ignored them and passed directly past them.

"Did you see it? She didn't take us seriously at all!" Concubine Shu was so angry that she was furious.

Concubine Xian had a sullen face and was full of jealousy, "Who asked me to be a noble concubine!"

Concubine Rou and Ji Ming followed Liu De into the Lingxiao Palace and found that it was full of imperial guards, three floors inside and three floors outside. The two were stopped three meters away from the dragon bed.

King Yan was lying on the bed, his eyes closed tightly, and there was no color on his face.

"What's going on?" Concubine Rou frowned with worry.

Ji Ming also looked at Imperial Physician Cui, "Father, this is..."

Doctor Cui saluted and said: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, today the king went to Zhilan Palace to visit Princess Ling Yue as usual. Unexpectedly, he was stabbed by Yan Hong, the maid next to the princess. She smeared poison on the dagger and committed suicide on the spot. , Wei Chen had no time to find out what the poison was, so he could only use bloodletting to temporarily control the poison."

"Then what is the follow-up treatment? Can the antidote be prepared as soon as possible?" Concubine Rou said in an urgent tone.

Doctor Cui paused and said, "We will do our best, please don't worry, Madam."

Concubine Rou breathed a sigh of relief and then looked at Sun Zhao, the commander of the imperial guards, "Why did Princess Lingyue's maid want to assassinate the king?"

Sun Zhao replied: "I sent someone to investigate and found out that the eldest maid next to Princess Lingyue was originally Yinshuang. She was killed because she failed to protect her. Later, Concubine Yin arranged for the maids to take her place. Yan Hong was one of them. I followed suit. This line also found that Yan Hong was originally just an inconspicuous little palace maid, who was often bullied by some big palace ladies and old ladies. It was Concubine Yin who gave her a hand. Concubine Yin was kind to her so that she could have a chance to escape from the sea of ​​misery. .”

"Are you saying that Yan Hong stabbed the king to avenge Concubine Yin?" Concubine Rou looked suspicious.

Sun Zhao glanced at her and lowered his head, "I have this guess, but of course it's not absolute."

Concubine Rou shook her head, "I feel something is wrong. Concubine Yin has been dead for some time. If Yan Hong really wants to take revenge, she won't delay it until now."

"Your Majesty, it's raining heavily tonight, and you happen to be leaving the palace. The heavy rain can protect her and make people relax their vigilance." Sun Zhao said slowly.
