535 Why did he become like this?
"I don't want to be depressed, but there is really no happiness in the palace!" Concubine Pang sighed after saying this.
Nanny Yang also likes life outside the palace. She is used to living outside, so she will feel uncomfortable after coming back.
"My lady, how about I bring in some flowers and plants from outside for you?" she asked.
"Okay!" Concubine Pang agreed immediately.
In fact, she wanted Gu Xiaoxi to live in the palace for a while because she missed the food cooked by that girl.
Unfortunately, Gu Xiaoxi is helping Ali now, so she can't bring herself to ask.
When Ye Lixuan entered the yard, he happened to hear the two people talking.
He knew very well that his mother missed life outside the palace, but it was simply impossible now.
Unless he was with the people in the manor, he would have no time to care about his mother.
"Mother, you haven't been eating well recently. You have lost weight." He walked up to his mother as he spoke.
Seeing her son coming, Concubine Pang immediately smiled.
"No, it was the next day, and I didn't sleep well. Don't worry, mother is fine now!
He's been in bed lately, and no one's bothered me, so I've had a pretty leisurely time." She patted her son's shoulder and pulled him to sit down and talk.
Ye Lixuan also knew that the Queen had been ill recently, but she did not recover even when she was sick. It was the Queen who invited Concubine Yun that night.
Unfortunately, the enemy was alerted. If Concubine Yun had fallen into the trap after entering the palace, it would have been killing two birds with one stone.
"Mother, you'd better be careful recently. The Queen..." He told his mother what happened in the past few days.
After hearing this, Concubine Pang frowned slightly and said, "The Queen is desperate."
"That's not the case, so you must be more careful in the palace." Ye Lixuan said.
Concubine Pang lowered her voice and said, "Don't worry, there's a secret passage in Mother's palace. If anything goes wrong, Mother can leave through it."
Ye Lixuan didn't expect that his mother had such a trick up her sleeve, and he felt a lot more relieved.
The mother and son chatted for a while, and Concubine Pang learned that he had been in the palace for only one day and one night, so she asked him to go back quickly.
Ye Lixuan left his mother's harem to visit the sixth brother. The sixth brother looked in good condition, so he went to visit the fifth brother.
Ye Chengxuan's situation was not so good. He had done too many evil things with the eldest prince in the past, and those incenses would make him often dream about those he had killed.
He suffered from nightmares almost every night, which tortured him to the point that he was almost unrecognizable.
Seeing Lao Wu become like this, Ye Lixuan asked angrily, "Why did he become like this? How did you serve him?"
The old nanny trembled with guilt and said in a trembling voice, "Second Master, even if I had the courage of a bear or a leopard, I wouldn't dare to do that!"
"Hmph, you don't dare? Come here, take her away. This old slave has failed to take good care of the Fifth Master. I'll give her twenty lashes with the board and send her to Eunuch Lin for punishment." Ye Lixuan ordered angrily.
"Second Master, please spare me, Second Master, please spare me!" The old nanny begged desperately, but was finally covered with her mouth by Ying Yi and dragged out.
"Second brother, second brother, you are here to see me." Ye Chengxuan, who was hiding in the corner, only then realized that his second brother had come.
Ye Lixuan felt unhappy seeing the fifth brother become like this. He knew that this must be the Queen's doing.
Although the fifth brother had been in cahoots with the eldest brother before, without the fifth brother, the sixth brother would not be able to deal with the eldest brother.
For the sake of this incident, he didn't intend to take Lao Wu's life.
"Ying Er, open the window, throw out everything in the room, and get a new bed.
Go to Eunuch Lin and ask him to send two people over." He gave another order.
"Yes!" Ying Er responded and went out.
Ye Chengxuan didn't expect that after he had done so many bad things in the past, he had ended up in this situation, and his second brother was still willing to help him.
"If you want to live a comfortable life in the future, you have to work hard to get through it." Ye Lixuan looked at Lao Wu with a firm face.
Ye Chengxuan nodded in understanding.
The second brother has always been kind. As long as the second brother can sit in that position, his life can be saved.
However, if the third brother took that position, he would probably lose his life.
The third brother looks honest on the surface, but he is actually very cunning.
Thinking of this, he pulled his second brother out of the room and ran to the study.
Ye Lixuan didn't know what Lao Wu was going to do. When he entered the study, Lao Wu closed the door.
Ye Chengxuan closed the door, turned around and started searching on the bookshelf. After searching for a while, he found a book.
Opening the book, he took out a token and put it into his second brother's hand.
"Old Five, what is this?" Ye Lixuan asked curiously.
"Second brother, these are the secret organizations I have outside the palace. Take this token and go..." Ye Chengxuan instructed his second brother seriously.
Ye Lixuan was stunned for a moment. When Xiaoxi hypnotized Lao Wu before, they already knew where the forces outside Lao Wu's palace were?
He has also been sending people to keep an eye on it, but there has been no movement so far. He didn't expect that Lao Wu would hand over the power outside the palace to him. He looked at Lao Wu in a daze.
"Second brother, I know you can be soft-hearted towards your brothers, but third brother won't. I do this not for you, but for myself." Ye Chengxuan saw that his second brother did not hold the token, and he was worried that his second brother would not want it.
Ye Lixuan saw Lao Wu’s expectant eyes and nodded heavily.
…
At this moment, Gu Xiaoxi also entered the palace. She looked around the emperor's side but didn't see Ye Lixuan. Then she went to Concubine Pang and Sixth Master's side.
If none of them are here, where could that guy have gone?
In the Queen's palace?
It's unlikely to happen in broad daylight, and Ye Lixuan came in openly.
"Boss, will the Second Master go to see the Fifth Master?" Number Two guessed.
yes!
I almost forgot that there is also the dying Old Five.
Gu Xiaoxi walked towards where Fifth Master lived.
On the way, she met a few girls who were talking about something, and she went over to gossip.
"I heard that the Queen vomited blood again today. I wonder if it's true?"
"Don't talk nonsense. The people in the palace are all the Queen's people. Be careful of your life!"
"Not only the Empress, but the Emperor is also in poor health. The imperial physician just rushed to the Imperial Study."
"Shut up, everyone! Our masters are not ours to discuss."
A slightly older palace maid yelled, and everyone shut up immediately.
Gu Xiaoxi knew that the Queen's condition was very serious this time, but she just saw that the Emperor was just coughing a little and there was nothing special.
However, it is hard to say without taking the emperor's pulse.
While she was thinking about this, she saw Ye Lixuan walking out of the palace where the Fifth Master lived, with a bad look on his face.
She walked over quickly and pinched him.
Ye Lixuan was pinched and realized that Gu Xiaoxi was worried about him entering the palace.
He didn't say anything, but got into the sedan chair next to him.
Gu Xiaoxi put her arms around his neck, hung on him, and then entered the space.
At first the sedan bearers felt it was very heavy, but soon it returned to normal. They all looked at the Second Master curiously.
