Chapter 219 Blood Swallow
Chu Yingrui and Chu Wuxun stared at each other.
Chu Yingrui always felt that...his son seemed to be taking advantage of him.
A little angry.
And a little bit arrogant.
At this moment...
"Your Majesty~~~"
Outside, the familiar voice of the Imperial Concubine was heard.
Chu Yingrui: ...
Didn’t we tell her to rest and recuperate? Why is she here again?
But he still kept a slight distance from Chu Wuxun, and only then allowed the Royal Concubine to come in.
After the Royal Concubine came in, she just glanced at Chu Wuxun and then focused all her attention on His Majesty.
How could she, a master of palace fighting, make His Majesty feel that his woman was looking at other men?
See, it's the details!
"Your Majesty, I am here to bring you soup."
"You have been feeling unwell lately, and I am very concerned about you."
"Come on, open your mouth, ah~~~"
Chu Yingrui: ... "Didn't I tell you to rest? Why are you still making soup?"
The royal concubine smiles very sweetly.
"Because I am more concerned about your health. I don't know what happened a few days ago, I suddenly felt weak and had several pimples... Fortunately, these two days are gone, and I am busy here to bring warmth to Your Majesty."
"I heard that this blood swallow is especially good for the body. Your Majesty, please eat more."
Chu Yingrui glanced at the bowl of bird's nest.
"When did blood swallows appear in the palace?"
The noble concubine immediately praised her son.
"Of course it was sent by the Third Prince. He is so filial."
Chu Yingrui: "Was it really sent by the Third Prince? I'll let Ah Fu investigate now."
The Imperial Concubine: "Okay, okay, actually it was sent by the Seventh Prince. This old man is really something. He wanted to send you the blood swallows but he didn't send them to the Empress, but sent them to me instead... What a weird child, he is not as good as our Third Prince at all, right?"
Chu Yingrui couldn't help but look at Chu Wuxun, and then saw Chu Wuxun nodding.
Understood……
It was poisoned indeed.
And the poison is in this blood swallow.
Speaking of which...
My noble concubine, what kind of palace fighting expert are you? ! !
"Leave the blood swallow here. I'll drink it in a while. You can go back first."
Chu Yingrui thought...it was better not to let the Royal Concubine get involved.
However……
But the noble concubine suddenly put away her smile.
"Your Majesty, is something wrong recently? Is there going to be a war?"
"Although most of my family members are dead and my brother is useless, but... I can still perform the operation."
“Swish!”
I don't know where the royal concubine hid the knife before, but at this moment she pulled it out in a flash.
"Your Majesty, whoever you want to kill, I will be the first to chop him down!"
Chu Yingrui: ...
At this moment, I was actually a little moved.
Although the imperial concubine is usually a bit naughty, but...
He still remembered that during the war, although the concubine was weak, she always stayed by his side and never left.
Even though his parents, brothers and even sister-in-law died in the battle, they just wiped their tears and continued to protect him, becoming his last line of defense.
"My beloved... they are just a few little bastards, don't worry... I will be able to deal with them quickly, and then I will drink the bird's nest you prepared."
"real?"
"I will never lie to you!"
The noble concubine put away her knife with confidence.
"Since Your Majesty has said so, then I believe it... But, Your Majesty, can you promise me one thing?"
Chu Yingrui nodded with emotion, "No problem, Noble Concubine, you go ahead."
The Imperial Concubine: "Can you please not let the Third Prince carry the knife? I'm afraid he might hurt his hand."
Chu Yingrui: ...
The emotion flew away in an instant!
Just when Chu Yingrui was thinking about asking the Royal Concubine to copy Buddhist scriptures...
"Don't worry, sister. How could His Majesty be willing to let the Third Prince carry a sword?"
A graceful figure walked in from outside the door, it was the Empress.
After this period of rest, the Empress's tuberculosis has completely recovered, and her originally pale complexion has become a little more rosy.
As they walked into the Yangxin Palace, all eyes fell on Chu Wuxun.
It turned out that this was his son.
And Chu Wuxun's gaze towards the Empress also became gentle.
Since he was brought into the palace at a young age, he has been nurtured by the gentle Queen Mother.
Many nights, he would think, if only his mother was like the Empress.
But now I know...it turns out that the Queen is really his mother.
Looking back... Chu Wuxun discovered that he had actually been living with his parents for a long time and had been loved by them since he was a child.
Thinking of this, the painful memories of my childhood don’t seem so painful anymore.
The Empress and Chu Wuxeng only needed to look at each other, and the mother-son love between them was already overflowing.
Chu Yingrui felt a little jealous when seeing this.
This son... after he was recognized as mine, he became more skilled at confronting me and even started to compete with me for my wife.
Or let someone carry it away!
After the Queen arrived, she quickly took the Concubine away.
Instead, Chu Yingrui and Chu Wuxun looked at each other, and then their eyes fell on the bowl of bird's nest.
then……
Soon, the palace was closed and the entire palace fell into an extremely depressing atmosphere.
And then...
I don't know how the news leaked.
Soon, news spread that His Majesty had been poisoned and vomited three liters of blood.
The capital city, which was already in a state of panic, was like a drop of water dropped into a boiling pot of oil.
It totally exploded.
Soon, rumors spread in the capital about... a tyrant ruler in power and a plague from heaven.
But there was no reaction from the palace. It seemed that Chu Yingrui had completely lost consciousness and was unable to react to the current situation.
then……
Rumors in the capital began to intensify.
Not only are there more and more rumors about the incompetent ruler, some people even brought up what happened eighteen years ago...even the secret decree was fake, the current emperor is simply a villain who is stealing the country.
Under the rumors, the image that Chu Yingrui had worked so hard to build over the years collapsed in an instant...
However, Chu Yingrui still did not respond to this, and the palace gates remained closed.
Every day only those who deliver rice, vegetables and medicinal herbs can enter.
There is news that there is a very strong smell of medicine in His Majesty's bedroom every day, as if medicine is being boiled every day.
There are even people who understand medicine who say that among the current drug residues, there are already some that are very powerful.
This proves that Chu Yingrui's condition is indeed very dangerous and that this strong medicine must be used.
At this point, almost everyone knows...
His Majesty Chu Yingrui is probably really deeply poisoned and is in danger of dying.
And just when this news was confirmed...
In Prince Yong’s Mansion, Chu Tianming glanced at Prince Yong.
"Grandpa, it's time for us to act."
The originally dim eyes of Prince Yong were now shining brightly.
"Eighteen years, eighteen years!"
"I've finally waited for this day."
"Tianming, move!"
