Chapter 85
"Girl, how did you know that you came to see me today?" the queen asked Rong Ying with a smile.

Rong Ying supported the queen for a walk in the imperial garden, she laughed and said, "Ah Ying misses my mother, so I came to see my mother, it is better for my mother to treat Ah Ying well, unlike the general who always makes me angry!"

The queen covered her mouth and smiled: "It turned out that he provoked you. No wonder you came to Ben Gong to complain. Tell me, why did Lin Changjing provoke you? I make the decision for you."

Rong Ying said coquettishly: "I know that my mother loves Ah Ying!" In a blink of an eye, she became angry again: "General, he is looking for a woman outside, and he still stays out all night! I am so mad!"

The queen smiled: "What do I think is the matter? It's common for men to go out and ask for flowers. You should feel lucky that he didn't bring the women back home."

"Ah Ying is not as virtuous and virtuous as my mother. Ah Ying just can't see her husband being with other women!" Rong Ying leaned close to the queen's ear and whispered, "Your Majesty, I heard that the concubines in the palace Will use a special kind of incense to keep men, is it true?"

The queen's expression changed: "Who did you hear that from?"

"I heard the comments from the officials and wives. It is said that Jin Guifei has been using it all the time. If the incense is really useful, Ah Ying also wants to get some back, lock the general tightly, and see that he is still looking for women outside! "

The queen said with a sullen face: "The spice used by Concubine Jin is secret from the ancestors. It has never been passed on to the outside world, so you don't have to think about it. Besides, you can't keep men for long by relying on crooked methods. You should take this as a warning. .”

Rong Ying lowered her eyes: "Your Majesty taught me the right thing, it's Ah Ying who got confused."

After Rongying returned home, Lin Changjing hurriedly stepped forward and asked her, "How is it? What did you find out?"

Rong Ying said: "Wu Xinlan was favored in the first place because of the addictive mandala powder. It is said that now the emperor goes to her every night, probably because of the incense."

Lin Changjing frowned and said: "I see that the emperor's expression has become more and more absent-minded recently, and it must be because of the manduo powder. I asked the imperial physicians, but they couldn't find out what disease the emperor had, and they said they didn't know what 'manduo powder' was. Things. They can’t do anything about the emperor’s illness, and after the emperor has been to Jinren Palace, he will have a short-term mental agitation, so they think that thing really works for the emperor’s illness.”

"With so many imperial physicians, it's impossible for all of them to not notice the difference. Someone must be secretly manipulating it."

"You mean Xinlan?" Lin Changjing was a little sad.

Rong Ying said: "Before Wu Xinlan entered the palace, she was a lady from a famous family, so how could she know about mandala powder from the Western Regions? She is in the deep palace, so it is impossible for her to get this kind of thing. Someone must have given her this kind of spice and taught her How she operates."

Lin Changjing felt that the situation was getting worse, he said: "The purpose of the 'person behind'... is the emperor? Who could it be?..."

Rong Ying lowered her head in thought, she suddenly thought of something, and said, "Wu Xinlan has always kept a low profile since entering the palace, but one day she suddenly started to fight for favor. The reason for her fight for favor is because she misunderstood you and wanted to use the power of the emperor to take revenge on you." , and the person who caused her to misunderstand you...is Ye Chunhua...No, the princess cannot be the mastermind behind Wu Xinlan's mando powder, she cannot harm the emperor...By the way, Xuanji!"

"Xuan Ji? That snake demon?"

"When I was in Chenguo, Xuanji once told me that I should be careful of the people around me. Later I figured out that this 'people around me' refers to Wu Xinlan. She used Wu Xinlan to take you down through her. , and then use you to threaten me, all of this is controlled by her, and the mandosan in Wu Xinlan's hand may be given by her."

Lin Changjing still has doubts: "But if Xinlan's misunderstanding of me has been resolved, why does she still use this incense to compete for favor? And it is impossible for her not to know how much harm it will do to the emperor."

Rong Ying pursed her lips and said, "Let's stop guessing here, if you want to know, just ask her directly!"

"Ask her directly?" Lin Changjing seemed a little hesitant.

"What else are you thinking? You can't let her make a big mistake!"

After the two agreed, they rushed to the palace immediately, but when they got outside the palace gate, an unexpected news caught them off guard and plunged the orderly palace into a panic—the Qing Emperor had passed away.

When the two arrived outside Qinghuang's bedroom, there were already a group of concubines and officials kneeling on the ground and crying bitterly, Ye Tianheng and the head servant stood on the steps with mournful expressions.

"Everyone be quiet!" Ye Tianheng said suddenly, and everyone's crying became quieter.

Ye Tianheng tilted his head slightly, and said to the chief servant behind him: "Please read the imperial father's will."

"Yes."

Enduring the grief, the head servant took a step forward, opened a bright yellow imperial decree, and read it out to all the ministers: "I have entered the Datong as a clan member, and I have been enshrined in the clan temple for 15 years... the virtuous prince Tianheng, the benevolent and filial Tianzhi, Wisdom is accomplished long ago. It is better to obey the precepts of the ancestors and obey the sentiments of the people, that is, the emperor's throne..."

On the day of Qinghuang's burial, the mighty funeral procession drove out of the imperial city. The whole city was completely empty, and the whole country mourned together.When the team was about to reach the imperial mausoleum, a strange wind suddenly blew up in the sky, and the wind rolled up dust for several feet. People raised their sleeves to cover their heads and couldn't open their eyes.

After a long time, the wind and dust gradually subsided, and people felt that the wind and sand came for no reason, when they suddenly heard a woman screaming: "The imperial concubine is gone!"

Wu Xinlan felt a cold hand strangling her neck, her whole body was suspended in the air, and after a while of spinning around, she was thrown heavily to the ground.After raising her eyes to see the person standing in front of her, Wu Xinlan surprisingly didn't feel any fear.

"It is you."

"Bitch! How dare you kill my father! You are so brave!"

Wu Xinlan was powerless to defend herself, and said with a wry smile: "If you want to kill, just kill it."

"Want to die? It's not that easy! I want to cut off your flesh piece by piece! I want to make your life worse than death!"

As the wind blew up, Ye Chunhua stretched out his long black nails and rushed towards Wu Xinlan.Wu Xinlan shuddered all over and closed her eyes.However, she didn't feel the heart-piercing pain, but heard Ye Chunhua's cry sounded some distance away from her.

"Let me go! Let me go!"

Wu Xinlan opened her eyes, and was surprised to see Black and White Wuchang holding Ye Chunhua with a token, one left and one right, no matter how hard she struggled, she looked like a weak ant in front of the two ghost guards.

"Ye Chunhua, you are running away from the underworld and causing harm to the world. Today, I will escort you back to the underworld to await trial!"

The voice of the ghost messenger seemed to come from hell, which made people feel frightened.

"I don't accept it! I killed those who killed me, what's wrong?! This woman has a vicious heart and killed me and my father. Why don't you let her go to the [-]th floor of hell?!"

"This mission only catches ghosts, not living people. Wu Xinlan's merits and demerits when she was a human being, after death, she enters the underworld, and the judge will decide. Stop talking nonsense, let's go!"

Ye Chunhua's scolding sound disappeared along with Black and White Wuchang, Wu Xinlan sat on the ground in a daze, remembering what the ghost messenger said before leaving.

"After death, the judge will make a decision... People like me will be thrown into the [-]th hell, and they will never be reborn, right? Oh, we will know soon..."

Wu Xinlan smiled, a trace of blood dripped from the corner of her mouth, Lin Changjing, who was looking for Wu Xinlan here, was shocked when he saw this, he hurried over to support Wu Xinlan's precarious body.

"Xinlan! What's wrong with you?!"

Wu Xinlan turned her head to look at Lin Changjing, and said with a smile: "The princess is here to find me."

Lin Changjing was startled: "Is it a princess?"

Wu Xinlan shook her head with difficulty: "No...the princess was taken away by ghost messengers...but even if the princess doesn't come, I can't survive today..."

Wu Xinlan suddenly spat out a big mouthful of blood with a "wow", the shocking red hurt Lin Changjing's eyes, he said anxiously: "Stop talking, I'll take you back to find the imperial physician!"

Lin Changjing took advantage of the opportunity to hug Wu Xinlan, but Wu Xinlan suddenly grabbed Lin Changjing's hand, pleading: "No! I don't have time!... I've taken the heartbroken grass, and I will die from a broken heart. I don't have time... ..."

"Stop talking! I'll take you back!"

"No!" Wu Xinlan was agitated, and spat out a mouthful of blood again. "I have to say...be careful of the prince...it was the prince who asked me...to add weight to the incense...the emperor will...only if I die, the prince can rest assured...to let Huier go..."

Lin Changjing was stunned when he heard this, before he had time to recover, Wu Xinlan tilted his head and closed his eyes.

"Xin Lan!"

At this moment, Rong Ying also rushed over, and she was shocked when she saw this situation: "What's going on?!"

Lin Changjing held Wu Xinlan in his arms, and said in great pain: "She took the heartbroken grass..."

Rong Ying was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to check, she immediately turned pale with shock: "How could it be?!"

Lin Changjing suddenly grabbed Rong Ying's hand: "You save her! Save her!"

Rong Ying showed a look of embarrassment: "But the heartbroken grass is non-toxic and can be cured, and she has already..."

"You have saved the lives of their mother and child, so there must be a way this time, right?"

Rong Ying looked at Wu Xinlan, who was ashen-faced, and said hesitantly, "Yes, but..."

"Great! Please save her! Please!"

Rong Ying's heart was stabbed severely: "You... beg me?..." At this moment, Lin Changjing was holding the dying Wu Xinlan in his arms, and his anxious expression made Rong Ying feel that she was an outsider.It turns out that Wu Xinlan has always been so important to him, even if he loves himself now, Wu Xinlan will always be the best first love in his heart.

"I'll save her." Rong Ying said suddenly.

Lin Changjing suddenly turned from sadness to joy: "Thank you, Aying!"

Rong Ying closed her eyes to cover the emotions in her heart, and said, "Go aside, don't hinder me from casting spells."

Lin Changjing handed Wu Xinlan to Rongying's hands, turned around and walked away.Rong Ying placed Wu Xinlan in a lying position, and then she spit out a glowing fiery red bead, and began to heal Wu Xinlan with the help of that bead.

After touching for about an hour, Rong Ying's whole body was covered with sweat and her complexion turned pale. She swallowed the bead back and stopped doing it.Seeing this, Lin Changjing in the distance came over.

"How is she?"

"It's okay." Rong Ying's voice seemed a little weak.

"Great! Thank you for your hard work, Aying."

Rong Ying twitched the corner of her mouth, but didn't speak.

"She can't go back to the palace anymore, she has to find a place to live."

Rong Ying was startled: "What happened?"

"It's hard to say, let's go back to the mansion first." Lin Changjing picked up Wu Xinlan who was still in a coma, and walked a few steps in the direction of going back, but found that Rong Ying did not follow.He turned his head away: "Aying?"

"I still have something to do, you take her back first."

Lin Changjing wondered, "What else can Ah Ying do?"

But he didn't ask any more questions, he nodded and left with Wu Xinlan.

Rong Ying's gaze began to become distracted, her body gradually became transparent, and finally the human form was disillusioned, turning back into a six-tailed white fox.
