Chapter 161 Chaos



Princess Chang'an shook her head frantically, "I didn't, I didn't want to harm any of you, I just wanted the Empress Dowager dead..."

Princess Chang'an only uttered half a sound when she said "die".

Wu Jixiang hurriedly covered her mouth with a white handkerchief: "This Princess Chang'an has gone mad, drag her away immediately."

No matter how much she struggled and screamed.

The guards didn't give her any chance to break free.

After all, she had started saying some outrageous and insane things, and any one of them could have killed her.

The sounds around me gradually faded away.

Mu Qianqian finally felt relieved.

That really scared her to death.

She thought Lu Zhaolin's love-struck mind had acted up again.

We really need to help Princess Chang'an leave the palace.

fine!

There is still hope for her uncle.

only……

When Wu Jixiang first came over, his voice was so soft.

She almost didn't hear it.

When exactly did Lu Zhaolin realize this?

As soon as Mu Qianqian turned around, she saw Lu Zhaolin looking in the direction Princess Chang'an had left, his expression complicated.

It was only for a very short time.

Lu Zhaofeng then returned to his usual self.

When he carried Mu Qianqian back to Qiluan Garden.

Qiluan Garden was already in complete chaos.

Madam Xia had already fainted from crying.

She lay half-reclined on a recliner in a side hall of Qiluan Garden, while the imperial physician pinched her philtrum and stuffed a pill into her mouth.

"Your Highness, please forgive my incompetence. This young lady Xia has been poisoned with arsenic. Although the dosage was small, it has already penetrated her internal organs. I'm afraid she won't live past tonight." Imperial Physician Li knelt on the ground to beg for forgiveness.

"Isn't there any other way? As long as her life can be saved, I will report to the Emperor any rare and precious medicines." Consort Shu looked anxiously towards the side hall: "This Miss Xia is innocent. If she hadn't come to the palace to celebrate Qianqian's 100-day celebration, she wouldn't have suffered this misfortune."

This Imperial Censor was also a man of deep affection.

He and Madam Xia were betrothed since childhood, and he never took a concubine even after several years of marriage.

She has a son and a daughter.

That would have been a perfect life.

Who would have guessed the year before last?

The son led troops into battle and died on the battlefield.

If something were to happen to my daughter today...

I'm afraid it might really cost the Imperial Censor and his wife their lives.

How could Consort Shu bear to watch a loyal minister suffer the pain of outliving his son time and time again?

"No matter what, even if we have to use all the medical skills of the Imperial Hospital, we must save Miss Xia's life," Consort Shu said firmly.

"Yes! Your Highness, I will do my best."

Consort Shu sat on a chair in the side hall, one hand supporting her forehead.

She vaguely heard her daughter's voice and looked up.

Then they saw Lu Zhaolin carrying Mu Qianqian as they walked in from a distance.

However, her little hands were very restless, constantly fiddling with Lu Zhaolin's face.

"This child is getting more and more mischievous as she grows up. Look at you, you've made your uncle's face turn red." Consort Shu said, taking Mu Qianqian from Lu Zhaolin's arms.

Mu Qianqian: ...

Where did she...act naughty?

"Why have you come at this time? Does the Emperor know?" Consort Shu asked worriedly.

"It was His Majesty who ordered me to bring Qianqian back." Lu Zhaofeng said, glancing at the chaotic palace. "How is Miss Xia? Is there any hope for her?"

Consort Shu sighed helplessly and shook her head: "Has anyone been found out who poisoned us? Are there any other people who have been poisoned?"

"It's...it's Princess Chang'an." Before Lu Zhaolin could finish speaking, he suddenly clutched his chest and vomited a large mouthful of blood.
