The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort

All the guards outside the palace rushed in, and the assassins were also taken care of. After all were subdued, Xiao Shao put away the short sword and said coldly: "Leave a living, and find out who the master is."

There was a mess of cups and plates in the palace, there were constant wailing from the wounded, and there were also innocent family members who died, and the mourning was endless. No one expected that such a sudden change would occur today. A good palace banquet suddenly became a killing field. . Someone from the palace came to help clean up the corpse, and the nearest imperial physician hurried over to treat the patient.

Guan Lianghan breathed a sigh of relief, patted Jiang Xinzhi on the shoulder and said, "Boy, I see that you have responded well today, and you are not chaotic in the face of danger. You look a bit like this general back then."

Jiang Xinzhi was not thinking here at all, frowning and looking at the palace, he didn't find Jiang Ruan's figure, and his heart was extremely anxious. After thinking about it, he walked up to Xiao Shao and said, "Prince Xiao, did you see my sister?"

...

But it is said that Jiang Ruan was escorted by the secret guards all the way back to the Palace of Compassion with Empress Dowager Yide. Although the knife wound was not deep, it was very long and lost a lot of blood. At this moment, there was no trace of blood on the already white face, and the ruddy lips became almost transparent. Seeing her appearance, Empress Dowager Yide hurriedly went to announce the best imperial physician in the palace, and at the same time ordered the maid to help Jiang Ruan onto her own couch.

Jiang Ruan did not lose consciousness after all, he opened his eyes and went down to the ground in a daze, and said with difficulty: "The empress dowager is not allowed, the status of the servants is low..."

"When is it?" Empress Dowager Yide said quickly, "You are credited for saving Aijia, so what if Aijia let you sleep?"

Jiang Ruan still wanted to speak, but her complexion became paler and her voice became hoarse, as if she was extremely exhausted, she turned her face slightly, and she didn't even have the strength to speak.

Seeing this, Empress Dowager Yide's complexion sank again, and she said angrily: "Why hasn't the imperial doctor arrived yet? If he doesn't come again, Ai's family chopped off his head!"

The aunt next to Empress Dowager Yide also showed surprise when she saw this. Empress Dowager Yide has been very cold-tempered these years, but today she repeatedly showed abnormal emotions for this strange girl, which is really strange.

The highly respected imperial physician in the palace rushed over quickly. Hearing that it was Empress Yide's Yizhi, he was still very puzzled, but when he saw the strange girl lying on the queen mother's bed, he was even more suspicious. This girl's face is tense, and it's not Princess Yide, why is Empress Dowager Yide so nervous? Could it be that she has some close relationship with Empress Yide?

Although he was puzzled in his heart, the imperial doctor didn't say much, he only got up after taking Jiang Ruan's pulse and said: "This girl just lost a lot of blood. Although she was wounded by a knife, fortunately the wound is not deep. If it is deeper, it will be more biased." , I'm afraid it's dangerous."

The Empress Dowager Yide breathed a sigh of relief, and the imperial physician said again: "I prescribed two prescriptions, took the medicine and fed it to the girl to drink, and then bandaged it and everything will be fine. Pay attention to the taboos these few days, otherwise it will not be conducive to the recovery of the wound."

"According to the doctor, will there be scars in the future?" Empress Dowager Yide frowned. The knife wound happened to be cut from the shoulder to the chest. After all, it was an unmarried daughter. If there was a scar, it would affect the marriage to some extent in the future. Jiang Ruan's skin was like snow, and there was a scar for no reason, even she felt sorry for it. In addition, her demeanor today is similar to that of Princess Yuanrong, so there is indeed a bit of sincerity in Empress Dowager Yide's questioning.

The imperial doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead: "If you go back to the empress dowager, if you take good care of it, maybe there will be no scars."

This means that there may still be scars. The Empress Dowager Yide's eyes darkened, and her tone was sharp: "Got it, go out and get someone to grab the medicine."

Only then did the imperial physician carry the medicine box on his back and went out of the palace together with the maid.

Empress Dowager Yide looked at Jiang Ruan, who was lying on the bed, her beautiful eyes were slightly closed, her lips were as pale as her complexion, she was trying to endure the pain, but she didn't frown, she still looked at her with a smile, as if in relief. Compared with the calm and charming in the hall just now, now that she has taken off her coat, she looks young and immature, with a more delicate and pitiful charm. Especially the smile on his lips, which is so sensible that it makes people feel distressed. Empress Dowager Yide suddenly thought of Princess Yuanrong. The precocious and sensible Princess Yuanrong never frowned every time she got sick, just looked at her and smiled.

Empress Dowager Yide softened somewhere in her heart, and her tone softened: "Why did you block that knife for Ai's family?"

Jiang Ruan smiled shyly, and said softly: "I don't know why, but when I said something about Yue Yue, the maid felt kind in her heart when she saw the Queen Mother, as if... she seemed to have seen it somewhere before, and she didn't think too much about it before." , I don’t know what’s going on.”

She didn't say anything dignified and dignified, but the sentence "I seem to have seen it somewhere before" made Empress Dowager Yide's expression fluctuate again. The thought in my heart became stronger and stronger. She said slowly: "You have done a great job in saving him, the Ai family will not let you suffer this knife for nothing."

Jiang Ruan smiled slightly, and said: "May the Empress Dowager ask someone to inform my elder brother, my daughter, I must be anxious because I can't find my daughter."

"Don't worry, the Ai family has already sent someone to talk about it." The Empress Dowager Yide frowned slightly, Jiang Ruan only said that she would inform Jiang Xinzhi, but did not mention Jiang Quan and Xia Yan. Whenever this kind of thing happened, the ordinary daughter's family should not seek her father, but she was so focused on looking for Jiang Xinzhi, she didn't even mention Jiang Quan. It was known before that the two siblings from the Jiang family had a very good relationship, but now it seems that there is a lot going on in it. It was the same in the palace just now, when talking about Jiang Ruan's marriage, Jiang Quan didn't fluctuate too much, he didn't look like a father.

Empress Dowager Yide's armor scraped lightly against the edge of the bed, and the ruby ​​radiated a bright blood-colored luster.

Jiang Ruan closed her eyes, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly. There are some things that don't need to be explained too clearly, especially for smart people. Let Jiang Quan handle the rest by himself.

She had known that there would be an assassination today. In the previous life, the emperor also held a grand palace banquet after the flood. In the middle of the palace banquet, an assassin sneaked in. It was Ye Li who saved the life of Empress Dowager Yide. Ye Li blocked the sword with his body and was seriously injured. At that time, the assassin was unknown, and all the emperor's princes were suspected by the emperor. The palace was cleaned up overnight, and even the prince who was not present because of physical discomfort was also affected. Only the eighth prince, Ye Li, managed to pick it clean - after all, it was too much to be seriously injured.

Because of this, Ye Li won the favor of Empress Dowager Yide, and the emperor trusted him, and he gained a good reputation of loyalty and filial piety. After entering the palace in the previous life, Jiang Ruan learned about it from chatting with the people in the palace. At that time, she was still sweating hard for Ye Li in that scene. Now that I think about it, there are many doubts about all of them. As for blocking the sword for Empress Dowager Yide, it's nothing more than a joke. If Ye Li was really a loving and righteous person as the rumors said, he would not have personally killed his father. Everyone thought that Ye Li would not be so cruel to him. In fact, Jiang Ruan knew better than anyone else that Ye Li was a man who kept a low profile and was especially ruthless towards himself.
