Two hours later, Qingyun gradually calmed down and lay quietly on the bed. Her face was so pale that it was almost transparent. Her sweaty black hair was scattered on the soft pillow. The cold sweat on her forehead was crystal clear and fine. Her whole body seemed to disappear when the wind blew.

Emperor Huiwen gently wiped the cold sweat from her forehead: "Jiu'er, do you feel better?"

Zike, whose eyes were filled with tears, immediately went to prepare hot water and meals.

Looking at the three people who were full of worry and distress, Qingyun's face wavered with a smile like a breeze: "Don't worry, I'm much better." How can the pain in the body be compared to knowing that everyone around him was suffering from the pain in his previous life? The despair and bone-gnawing sadness she felt when she was brutally killed?

But the three of them felt heavy: This time alone had almost exhausted her energy. How would she survive the next two days?

Leng Yi wondered: "Isn't it the poison given by the imperial concubine?" That's why the pills made with her blood cannot cure Jiu'er's cold poison. But according to the results of their many years of secret investigation, the finger is pointed at the imperial concubine. However, They had no conclusive evidence, otherwise how could they have allowed the imperial concubine to live so freely?

"Zhi Lan heard with her own ears that she poisoned her late mother." Qing Yun's eyes were as dark as the sea: "But there is no evidence, and I don't know whose blood she mixed with?"

"Besides herself, the only people the imperial concubine cares about are Prince Chun and..." Your Majesty! Emperor Huiwen and Leng Yi quietly looked at each other and saw the horror in each other's eyes.

Mo Xuan was equally frightened: "With the imperial concubine's palace and scheming, we should have thought that once we find out that the poisoning is related to her, we will use her blood to make the medicine. Now if it is not hers, then it may be the emperor." and King Chun’s.

After all, she tried her best to get the emperor's love, but the emperor's heart and all his love were given to her aunt. She became so angry that she used poison mixed with the emperor's blood to kill her pregnant aunt, hoping that the emperor would watch her. Die in front of the emperor and bear the pain of losing the person you love most.

The most important thing is that at that time, the emperor did not know that the imperial concubine had poisoned him, nor did he know that the emperor's blood would be used to detoxify the aunt, so...

As for King Chun, we will find another way, but Xi Yan’s body cannot withstand the torture in a short time, and the emperor cannot use medicine until the poison is resolved. In addition, "

Seeing the three people looking at him, Mo Xuan frowned, and his charming eyes flashed with a faint light: "There is another possibility. In order to prevent us from easily finding the medicine, the imperial concubine mixed the blood of unrelated people."

"Then Jiu'er's cold poison..." Emperor Huiwen and Leng Yi were worried: Except for King Chun, the other two methods...

"I will do whatever it takes to eradicate Xi Yanhan's poison!"

Qingyun, who had resurrected his life, no longer cared too much about whether the cold poison could be cured. Looking at the solemn and gloomy Emperor Huiwen, he cautiously asked the question in Jiuzang's heart: "Father, do you really love my late mother? Then why did you watch your late mother marry someone else and have a daughter?"

"This..." Emperor Huiwen's eyes flashed, and he instantly regained his composure and profoundness: "Because your mother doesn't have me in her heart, so I chose to fulfill her wish."

"So that's it." Qingyun suddenly realized, but she didn't see the relief that flashed across the eyes of Emperor Huiwen and Leng Yi.

"By the way, how much do your father and Uncle Leng know about Juechen Palace?"

"Jiu'er is suspicious..."

"The secret poison poisoned by my father, the abduction of the two royal sisters-in-law, and the attack on me are all related to Juechen Palace. I suspect that Juechen Palace has not disappeared, but is hiding in secret and plotting against the royal family."

"Jiu'er's suspicion is not unreasonable." Emperor Huiwen nodded and said: "Speaking of the grievances between Juechen Palace and the royal family, they all originated from the founding emperor. At that time, the founding emperor was a young and talented man who was unparalleled in the world in terms of appearance, family background, and martial arts.

, coupled with his deep affection for his childhood sweetheart, the founding queen, attracted countless women to flock to her, and Ye Ling was one of them.

She tried her best to persuade her father, a general with half a million troops, to support the founding emperor in overthrowing the previous dynasty and establishing a new country. Later, with her noble status and stunning appearance, she relied on her father to be the founding father and forced the founding emperor to depose the founding queen.

Then he made her his queen.

The founding emperor had no feelings for her at all, so he firmly disagreed.

She became so angry that she not only poisoned the founding queen, but also instigated her father to lead the army under her control to start a rebellion. The result was a failure. Only she escaped by chance, and her whereabouts are unknown since then.

Until one day twenty years later, she suddenly led people to sneak into the palace, intending to assassinate the founding emperor, but failed and was killed by random arrows.

After some investigation, the founding emperor learned that Ye Ling had built the Juechen Palace after escaping from death. The purpose was to avenge the founding emperor's ruthlessness and overthrow the new country, and massacred members of the royal family. The founding emperor then led his army to annihilate them.

Juechen Palace.

Many years later, Feng Qianqin's love for King Yong failed and he poisoned King Yong. The succeeding emperor found out that Feng Qianqin was a remnant of Juechen Palace and led an army to encircle and suppress him.

Unexpectedly, the power of Juechen Palace was huge and everyone was highly skilled in martial arts. The two sides fought fiercely for three days and three nights. Rivers of blood flowed into Ziqing Mountain and mountains of bones formed. Although the succeeding emperor won the final victory, he paid a heavy price and suffered heavy losses.

The Juechen Palace has also disappeared.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, the Juechen Palace has come back to life again with bad intentions!" Emperor Huiwen warned: "Later, my father will send another hundred secret guards here, Jiu'er, you must be more careful." Then he looked around in a blink of an eye.

Mo Xuan said: "Mo Xuan, you have also moved to Luoxia Palace. I hope you can protect Jiu'er well."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, as long as I'm here, no one can harm Xiyan at all!" Mo Xuan solemnly promised.

Xiyan?

Only then did Emperor Huiwen notice that what Mo Xuan was calling was Jiu'er's unknown nickname. His eyes couldn't help but turn back and forth between Jiu'er and Mo Xuan. There were little stars in his unfathomable eyes, making it impossible to guess where he was.

What to think.

"Father, I will be careful. Father and Uncle Leng should also pay more attention." Qingyun knew that her father always put her first in everything, and she could not refuse at all. Originally, she planned to wait for those secret guards to come back.

, she discussed with her father about exchanging secret guards, which was exactly what she wanted.

Asking Chen Yu to bring the purple and gold brocade box in the sixth secret compartment under the third bookshelf in the study, Qingyun opened the brocade box and took out a few pieces of letter paper and handed them to Emperor Huiwen: "Father, after Feng Zhaoyi's accident, I suspect that

The flood disaster and the accidental death of Feng Shilang were not as simple as they appeared, so we asked someone to conduct a secret investigation. This is the result of the investigation. Please see it."

After Emperor Huiwen quickly read ten lines at a glance, his face suddenly became solemn and stern, his eyes were filled with coldness, and his whole body burst out with a stormy anger.

"Back then, the late emperor allocated 500,000 taels of silver to dredge and consolidate the river, but the river bank still burst and flooded, causing countless people on both sides of the river to lose their homes. The late emperor was so worried about this that he did not expect that someone would have the audacity to embezzle it.

The money spent on repairing the river is simply heinous!"

"Now that the matter has come to this, please don't let your father get so angry."

Leng Yi promptly offered a cup of tea to Emperor Huiwen, and winked at him to tell him that Jiu'er had just experienced cold poison and that he should not worry about Jiu'er.

Emperor Huiwen softened his expression with understanding, and said in a slower tone: "Jiu'er, can you ask someone to find out who embezzled Hedaoyin?"

After the incident, the late emperor sent important ministers from the imperial court to take charge of the rescue and subsequent prevention and control projects. They also investigated the cause of the incident. According to reports from the senior ministers, it was because the flood broke out so suddenly and so violently that it caused the flood. A disaster.

"Father, don't worry, I have asked Situ Jingyu to investigate." Qingyun nodded and said: "If what I expected is correct, Feng Bin rushed back to his hometown after learning about Feng Shilang's death, and unexpectedly learned that The cause of his father's death was mysterious, so he secretly investigated for many years, and finally obtained some evidence. As a result, he was hunted down, and he had no choice but to hide in the army incognito.

As for what kind of evidence it is, we will only know when Situ Jingyu comes back. As for the reason why Feng Bin got the evidence but did not report it to the court, I think it may be that the identity of the main envoy is extraordinary, and the matter must be very involved. , once the investigation is carried out, I am afraid that the government and the public will be turbulent and people will be uneasy."

"That's it." Emperor Huiwen was pleased but at the same time he was a little worried.

After all, the late emperor had made a conclusion on this matter back then. If he rashly investigates the case now, if the result is really as Jiu'er expected, it will not only cause an uproar, but also veto the late emperor's decision. This is a great crime of unfilial piety. .

Qingyun didn't know what Emperor Huiwen was thinking at this moment. She just vaguely felt that the matter had something to do with the Prime Minister. She just wanted to find out the facts and bring justice to the innocent victims: "By the way, father, repairing the river is a major matter for the imperial court, so you should take it as your own responsibility." The Minister of Industry is in charge. Why did the late emperor send Feng Shilang to govern?

"At that time, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry was already old, and Feng Shilang was in his prime and incorruptible. The late emperor intended to take this opportunity to test Feng Shilang. If he did not live up to the emperor's expectations, he would succeed him as the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and even be entrusted with important tasks. pity......."

"Could it be that Feng Shilang noticed someone embezzling He Daoyin during his governance, and was persecuted by those people before he even had time to report to the late emperor?"

"This is not impossible."

Seeing Emperor Huiwen's brows furrowed, with a hint of melancholy in his eyes, Qingyun thought for a while and understood what Emperor Huiwen meant: "Father, don't worry, if things are really as I expected, we can find the most compromise way to deal with it. yes."

"Okay!" Emperor Huiwen nodded, having already made a decision in his heart.

After sending Emperor Huiwen and Leng Yi away, Qingyun took a bath and had a meal under the service of Zike and Lvbo, then leaned against the bedrail and thought silently.

"Xiyan, I'm sorry!" Mo Xuan sat by the bed with a look of self-blame and regret: "If I had stopped you when I felt uneasy, you wouldn't have suffered such pain. It's all my fault!"

"I insisted on taking a bet. I just lost the bet. It has nothing to do with you." Qingyun said lightly: "You just need to tell me, what happened to my cold poison?" She clearly felt something strange in her body. , I didn’t ask just now because I didn’t want my father and Uncle Leng to worry.
