The night she married into the palace as a substitute bride to bring good fortune, Emperor Yinning suddenly died. Ye Lanzhou was branded with the crime of "ruining the nation," and even her...
Chapter 164 Save some energy
Ye Lanzhou believed that people are human because they have flaws, and Xie Chengyan's flaws were precisely what she was fascinated by. She found that her view of Xie Chengyan had changed. When she realized this, her heartbeat seemed to stop for a moment. She couldn't tell whether it was a dull pain caused by fear of Xie Chengyan's thoughts, or a fluttering heart...
The heavy snow gradually stopped, and Ye Lanzhou was distracted by Xie Chengyan's words. She stayed with Xie Chengyan, hoping to find a safe place for herself, but she didn't expect that the situation around Xie Chengyan was much more dangerous than she imagined.
If he cooperated with Nanjiang and started a rebellion, and succeeded, he would become the new ruler of the world, and the current New Emperor Party would be overthrown, leaving the court without any rivals. But what if he failed? He would become the second Prince Ning, and the entire government would be executed. What would be her future then?
When she returned to the palace that night, she did not forget what she had promised Xie Chengyan to do to help him find the spy in the palace.
This is not difficult. Isn't the spy going to target Yan Su?
Apart from her, Xie Chengyan and Hong Luo, almost no one in the mansion knew about Yan Su's existence. Her residence was even more remote in the mansion. Xie Chengyan was afraid that people in the mansion would find something unusual, so there were no servants serving around Yan Su's residence, which made things much simpler.
Just sprinkle some ghost grass powder around Yan Su's residence. When the spy inhales it into his lungs, the golden silkworm Gu will naturally be able to smell it. Thinking of this, the golden silkworm Gu on her wrist seemed to bite her. The force was not strong, and there was no warning in it. It just told her that it was a little unhappy.
Yes, raising a golden silkworm Gu took up a lot of her energy and was almost omnipotent. Now she asked it to do something that even a dog could do. It was inevitable that it would be a little unhappy.
"Miss Ye!" She was just thinking about it when Hong Luo from the courtyard saw her coming back and hurried over. He glanced at the servants around him and whispered, "Something happened to Yan Su!"
Ye Lanzhou's heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition came to her mind. She turned around and glanced at Xie Chengyan behind her. He probably didn't know that something had happened in the mansion, and at this moment, a rare look of shock appeared on his face.
Ye Lanzhou didn't stand there any longer, and went to Yan Su's room with the medicine box.
Before she even entered the door, a bloody smell hit her nose and she was frightened by the scene she saw.
Yan Su was seen curled up on the bed, her knuckles clenched white, the blood beneath her body dyed her clothes red and flowed from the bed to the ground. Even in this situation, Yan Su just bit her lips tightly and refused to make a sound.
It’s hard to imagine how long she could have held it in if Hong Luo hadn’t come here to inspect.
Seeing Ye Lanzhou enter the room, she seemed to see a glimmer of hope and whispered, "Miss Ye... there's someone... there's someone..."
She opened her mouth, but no sound came out. Ye Lanzhou was almost pressing against her ear, but still couldn't hear clearly. It was obvious that she was extremely weak.
"Stop talking." Ye Lanzhou interrupted her, "Save your energy."
Yan Su listened to Ye Lanzhou's words and immediately shut up. She knew that only Ye Lanzhou could save her life. She closed her eyes tightly, as if leaving everything to Ye Lanzhou.
She gradually grew weaker, as if she had no strength left. Ye Lanzhou pinched her arm and scolded her, "Don't sleep!"
He then placed his fingertips on her wrist, and amidst the strong smell of blood, he detected the scent of white orchid, which he had never noticed before.
