It’s hard to break a phoenix’s destiny

Chapter 509: Epidemic Spreads, the Madam Is in Danger

"Go ahead." Liu He finally let her go. After all, it was impossible for a young girl like her to escape from the heavily guarded palace.

Yang Xianlian also followed and held the third sister's hand.

Cui Xi grabbed Sima Jing and followed them.

Qin Chaoge came last, fearing any accidents might happen.

Of course, a few Hun soldiers also followed, and they were naturally afraid that they might have some problems.

On the way back, Yang Xianlian suddenly whispered to Yang Xianrong: "Third sister, Liu Cong is outside the palace."

"What?" Yang Xianrong's grip became stronger, causing Yang Xianlian's face to twist a little, and he cried out in pain. "What did they just say?"

"Yes, that Xiongnu soldier told the general." There was no fear in Yang Xianlian's eyes, but instead a light of expectation, "I want to go out of the palace to see Liu Cong."

"...That won't do. Let's go back and see mother first." There was no way Yang Xianrong would let her third sister leave the palace. Moreover, in the current situation, their lives could be lost at any time.

"Liu Cong brought a lot of people with him." Yang Xianlian added.

Yang Xianrong's eyes widened a little, "Do you understand Xiongnu language?"

"Liu Cong taught me." Yang Xianlian was very frank, "I taught him before."

However, this was not the time to ask in detail, so Yang Xianrong pulled her and quickly ran back to Tianyuan Palace.

Sun Ying lived in the courtyard behind Tianyuan Palace. When many palace servants saw Yang Xianrong and his men coming back, they all knelt down immediately. They covered their mouths and noses with their sleeves, probably because they were afraid of being infected.

Lu Zhu knelt in the front and whispered, "The mistress woke up once and took some medicine, but now she has fallen into a coma again. She didn't let us in, saying that she was afraid of the disease being passed on, so the servants have been waiting in the yard..."

"Hey, it's already this late..." Yang Xianrong didn't say the rest of the words, but everyone understood.

Who hasn’t faced the so-called life and death situation?

When the Hun soldiers who followed Yang Xianrong saw this scene, they retreated but did not leave.

Yang Xianrong had already pushed the door open and walked in, but she still stopped Yang Xianlian and the others outside, "Wait a moment, I'll go in and take a look."

The room was a little dim, and after Yang Xianrong's eyes adjusted a little, she quickly walked to Sun Ying's bed, but to her surprise, Sun Ying was sitting there counting her gold, silver and jewelry, and then put them into a lacquer box one by one. When he saw his daughter coming in, he just nodded and continued counting.

"You are..." Yang Xianrong was a little surprised and didn't understand.

Sun Ying's face was red due to the high fever, and it was obvious that she was trying hard to hold on. When she saw her daughter coming in, she did not stop what she was doing, but nodded to her, indicating that she should also cover her mouth and nose before she could sit down.

Yang Xianrong had no choice but to do as she was told, but tears welled up in her eyes. Sun Ying coughed a few times, and it was obvious that there was phlegm in her lungs. She must have been sorting these things for a while, and although her movements were slow, she was finally almost done.

"Hide these things well. No one can know about them, not even your brother and sister." She pointed at the lacquer box. "No matter what time it is, these are your last resort. Do you understand?"

"Mother?" Yang Xianrong was stunned for a moment and wanted to grab Sun Ying's hand, but Sun Ying refused to give her this opportunity. She covered her mouth and nose with her sleeves and coughed a few times.

"Don't come near me. It would be bad if you get sick." Sun Ying's voice was hoarse and he was short of breath.

"Let Brother Xu come and take another look?" Yang Xianrong's hand stopped in mid-air.

"It's useless. I'm afraid it won't get better." Sun Ying gasped again, obviously feeling suffocated. "What's the situation outside?"

"Liu He came and just left." Yang Xianrong replied. Facing Sun Ying's appearance, Yang Xianrong was actually mentally prepared, because according to the news brought back by Mao Hongmao and others, the epidemic in Luoyang spread very quickly, and some people in the palace had already fallen down, and the disease progressed very quickly, generally not more than seven days. Looking at Sun Ying's appearance, there should be no miracle.

Although Sun Ying's illness was very sudden, under the circumstances, she had long since become indifferent to life and death. The only thing was that she still had one thing unfinished, and she could not die.

"Is it not difficult for you?" Sun Ying looked at her daughter and sighed in her heart, "Rong'er, I'm afraid I can't accompany you for too long. You also know... cough cough cough, your appearance and phoenix fate will bring you disaster... When necessary, you can let go a little, it doesn't matter."

She said it in a very obscure way, but Yang Xianrong understood it. She closed her eyes and said, "Mom, I know."

"Yes, you... cough cough cough, I am the most at ease with you, but also the most worried. Anyway, don't put yourself in a difficult position. Those national justice are all false and floating clouds. You just have to watch the fights between those men. Let me put it another way: being ruthless is the best." Sun Ying was trying hard to say what she was thinking, because she was really afraid that she would never have the chance to talk to her daughter like this again.

At this moment, there was chaos outside the house again.

Messy footsteps and the men's roars.

It sounded like Hunnic language, which she couldn't understand.

At this time, Sun Ying moved extremely quickly. He covered the box of gold, silver and jewelry with his quilt, and then started coughing violently again.

Qin Chaoge and Zhang Liangchu could be vaguely heard talking, but soon the door was opened.

Liu Yao's voice came from outside the door: "Third sister, are you okay? Auntie, are you okay too?"

It turned out to be Liu Yao!
Yang Xianrong almost fell off the bed, tears welling up in her eyes. Sun Ying couldn't help but sigh when she saw her daughter like this.

Without hearing Yang Xianrong's response, Liu Yao strode in regardless. When he barged in wearing armor and holding a long sword, he really looked a little strange. Especially with his full beard, his true appearance could not be seen at all. If it weren't for that voice and the anxious light in his eyes, Yang Xianrong would definitely be scared.

"Third sister!" Liu Yao saw Yang Xianrong's tearful face and reached out to pull her. But at this moment, he also saw the sticky blood on his hands, and his movements slowed down. At the same time, he also saw Sun Ying and couldn't help shouting, "What happened to godmother?"

"Cover your mouth and nose quickly." Sun Ying covered her face with a quilt and shouted to Liu Yao to cover his face quickly.

However, Liu He, who followed Liu Yao in, bumped into Liu Yao's back and growled, "What are you doing? What are you doing? I didn't mess with your woman."
