Chen Palace

Chapter 195 Trial
"The so-called destiny is nothing more than Hades wanting you to die in the third watch, who dares to keep you until the fifth watch—"

Chen Lu's words seemed to have a lot of mystery, the queen chewed the meaning of the words, her face was cloudy and uncertain.

"I don't quite understand what Concubine Chen means."

"Why do you have to be like this, empress? Speaking of which, you are also very doubtful, aren't you?"

Chen Lu approached with a smile, "If it wasn't for my golden needle crossing the acupoint, I would have died today. Madam, who do you think did it?!"

The queen's face was pale, and she gritted her teeth without saying a word.

"This fetus will be of great benefit to you. Now that Concubine Mei's vitality has collapsed, even if Hua Tuo is reborn, it will be difficult to guarantee that the fetus will be born smoothly. So... I have a merciless request."

"what?"

"I heard that your family has a long history, and the two prefectures of Yunyan belong to the Lin family. You must have a lot of treasures. I want to get a Northland snow ginseng from the house, and I want eight leaves."

Chen Lu calmed down and said, "Ginseng is a specialty in Yunyan and Yanzhou, and only five-leaf ginseng is found in the palace, but Concubine Mei's body cannot be delayed."

When the queen heard that it was such a request, she couldn't help but soften her face, but she still said: "It's a trivial matter, I will send someone to go."

"Otherwise, I must go to your house in person!"

Chen Lu resolutely said: "This medicine is no small matter. Even the extremely precious eight-leaf ginseng has a difference in sex and taste. The difference is a thousand miles away. I can't tell."

When the queen heard it, she realized that it was reasonable for Chen Lu to handle it. Even if there was any good or bad, it would not be her fault. She admired suspiciously: "You care so much about Concubine Mei and the emperor's heir, it's really worthy of the emperor's favor. Arrived..."

Chen Lu heard something in her words, and smiled frankly: "The emperor's heir is in a difficult situation, if he can't share his worries, it will be easy for others."

When the queen heard the word "other people", she couldn't help but think of King Jing. Both of them were exquisite figures. They looked at each other, and a subtle tacit understanding suddenly emerged.

"It's not too late, let's go out of the palace as soon as possible!"

So the queen ordered someone to prepare a car to drive, and the two of them headed for the Jing'an mansion in light clothes.

Duke Jing'an received him in a panic. Hearing what he wanted to do, he was very embarrassed, but he still brought the two of them to the secret storehouse, took out all the medicinal materials and let Chenlu choose them one by one.

Baye's snow ginseng was originally a rare treasure. Chenlu carefully selected it, and the queen couldn't get her hands on it at all.

"Your Majesty is really knowledgeable. These are all sent by King Xiang, and even the boxes are made of high-quality ebony!"

The steward wanted to show off, Chen Lu smiled slightly, rubbed his hand, and said casually: "You still call him King Xiang!"

The steward's face turned pale, only then did he realize that he hadn't changed his mind and dared not speak up again.

Chen Lu didn't pick anything, "Is that all the treasures of Yunyan and Yanzhou?!"

The steward didn't dare to underestimate it any longer, and murmured: "There is another box, which is the legendary nine-leaf snow ginseng, which is rare in a thousand years. ..."

"Lin Kuang is already a traitor, can't I move his things?!"

Chen Lu's voice was not loud, but with the coercion of the superior, the steward was taken aback. She wanted to use the empress's name as a counterweight, but she didn't dare to speak anymore.

"Going to get it will delay the lives of Concubine Mei and the emperor's heir, can you afford it?"

The things were quickly brought to her eyes, Chen Lu glanced at them, put the box in her hand and weighed it, and finally smiled.

The queen was waiting impatiently, and when she saw her coming out, she couldn't help complaining: "The palace gate is about to be unlocked!"

The two of them didn't say much, they got into the car respectively, Chen Lu lowered the curtain, and cut open the ebony box with the short blade she wore next to her body.

A bright yellow scroll was lying quietly in it. Although the color was slightly dim, the five-clawed golden dragon on it was still alive and bright.

"Finally found……"

Chen Lu let out a sneer, but was unwilling to open it.

She was afraid that when she saw the familiar handwriting, she couldn't help tearing it apart.

Yuan Xu... What kind of mood did you feel when you wrote this edict...

She whispered inaudibly, her mind was in a trance.

Her hands tightened, the ground in her palm turned white, but she still retained the last ray of reason, and did not crush it into powder.

Pei Zhen got up early in the morning and left the house, and went to the Ministry of War.

In the past few days, the Ministry of War has been sparsely populated, and all the members of the Ministry just went home to spend their days at the end of the day—just after the war, they were relieved, so they slacked off a little, and no one bothered.

After greeting people, Pei Zhen leaned down in front of the desk and began to sort out the handed-in papers.

He watched for more than an hour, and was about to move his sore neck, but suddenly froze.

The essay in his hand was about changing defenses. Although he said it in a high-sounding manner, he still saw something strange.

Thinking of Wang Jing's subtle hint a few days ago, he was startled——

Is it about to start?
His hands trembled, and he could barely hold the official document, as if Mount Tai was overwhelming.

Pei Zhen was fighting fiercely in his heart, wishing he could get up and rush under the emperor's palace to present this memorial to the emperor.

But he held back, staring at the official document, picked up his own seal, and stamped it carefully and steadily.

****
"Pei Zhen is finally reliable..."

King Jing also had eyes and ears in the Ministry of War. An hour later, he received the news. He smiled and said that Pei Zhen had passed the test.

"It's too risky to do this..."

Master still disagrees.
