【299】Situation of all parties



She looked back at her distressedly, and finally hugged her tightly in her arms: "Good Yan'er, good Yingzi, don't worry, I am here, no one will hurt you again."

"You're right. It's God who has blessed us. Not only has he given me the chance to be reborn, but he has also given me a unique identity. If I don't make good use of this identity, how can I justify Wei Yuchen's thoughts about us over the years?"

"How is Master Yin'er? I heard from Yingzi that he was saved by His Majesty the Phoenix King's uncle?"

"Oh, by the way, is the biological mother of the Phoenix King the noble lady you saved before?"

"So how is Young Master Yin now? Calculating his age, he should be around... fifteen, right?"

Shangguan Qingxi hesitated to speak when she heard this, and Ruyan suddenly became nervous.

"What's wrong, Master? Is it Master Yin...?"

"In fact, I haven't seen that child yet. But according to Wei Jie, his condition is not very good. Back then... he suffered a lot and has been lying in bed for many years. He has only recently shown some improvement. Do you know who saved this child?"

Having said this, she subconsciously looked towards the next yard.

How perceptive was Ruyan? She understood immediately. She opened her mouth in disbelief: "Master, what you mean is, it was this Princess Feng who saved Master Yin?"

Shangguan Qingxi nodded, "Yes, she has taken over Yin'er since they got married. I only recently learned that Yin'er is still alive. Over the years..., it was all thanks to Wei Jie's careful care, and his uncle's help back then."

Ruyan looked at Shangguan Qingxi with emotion, "Master, this is in line with the old saying, good is rewarded with good, and evil is punished with evil. If you hadn't saved that noble lady Lan, I'm afraid His Royal Highness the Phoenix King wouldn't be around now, right? And it is because of the gratitude of the noble lady Lan and the Phoenix King that Master Du Yin was able to be reborn."

"It's just... what I didn't expect was how much His Majesty the Phoenix King trusted this Phoenix King's Consort. The fact that the prince told her about Young Master Du Yin's special identity shows that this princess who is married to the emperor seems to have a high status in the Phoenix King's Mansion."

Although she was in the palace, she knew everything the empress dowager knew. Therefore, her impression of Ling Yuan was limited to her extraordinary medical skills and ugly appearance. Even after seeing her today, she never took her seriously.

Unexpectedly, this Phoenix Princess with a strange appearance was not as ordinary as they saw.

"Since we are now living in the Rong Palace, and we are fortunate to cooperate with the Phoenix Princess, please be polite to her, okay?"

"Master, rest assured, I woke up. Just because she saved Master Yin, we should thank her."

"There is just one thing. My identity this time was arranged by the Phoenix King, so the Phoenix King's wife may not know it yet. Don't reveal any flaws."

At this point, Shangguan Qingxi looked at Ruyan curiously: "How did you... know my identity?"

Ruyan covered her mouth and smiled, "My eyes are sharp! Haha."

Seeing that Shangguan Qingxi was really curious, she curled the corners of her mouth, walked to her side, stretched out her nose and took a long breath on her.

"There are three points. First, it's your eyes. Second, the smell on your body. Third, you may not have noticed that your walking speed and the amplitude of your footsteps are very dignified. This has a lot to do with your previous identity. But, how could a wandering doctor walk in the palace steps that only women in the palace walk?"

After Shangguan Qingxi showed a dumbfounded expression, Ruyan continued: "You don't need to worry about others noticing the clues. Only the four of us can recognize these characteristics of yours. Others can't see them."

"Especially, these characteristics seem obvious after I point them out, but when combined together, they are not so obvious. And I also knew in advance that you were still alive and in the capital, so I imagined what identity you would appear in front of me, and today, I happened to notice these characteristics of yours. It's hard not to recognize you, right?"

Even though Ruyan said it easily, Shangguan Qingxi knew how sharp observation and accumulated familiarity this required.

These are her good sisters, the sisters whom she cherishes in her heart. Their love and affection for her have become unforgettable.

No matter how much armor she had on her face, they could still find her among thousands of people.

This feeling is so... heavy!

At this moment, Shangguan Qingxi only felt the heaviness and pain in her heart. She said nothing, but just gently held Ruyan in her arms, silently shedding tears and whispering.

"Thank you, thank you Ruyan, thank you Yingzi, thank you Jinmo, thank you Xique, thank you for recognizing me. In this life, we will never be separated again, never be separated again..."

Shangguan Qingxi was not ready to tell Wei Jie and Wei Li about their identities. She would wait a little longer. It would not be too late to tell them when she found the right opportunity.

After Wei Yuchen returned to the palace, he felt more and more aggrieved and angry the more he thought about it. It would have been bad enough that he smashed the imperial study in anger, but he actually killed two innocent people out of anger.

When the news reached Ningsheng Palace, the empress dowager became increasingly dissatisfied with him. Let her ask herself, how can a man who regards human life as worthless be an emperor?

Once the deposed emperor's thoughts arise, they will take root and sprout little by little like a seed...

After being furious, Wei Yuchen gradually calmed down and immediately found the imperial physician and Yu Meiren who were brought back by the empress dowager to inquire about the situation.

"What kind of poison was Prince Rong poisoned with? Why is it so serious?"

In response to Wei Yuchen's inquiry, the head of the Imperial Hospital took the lead and stepped forward and replied cautiously.

"Your Majesty, the joint diagnosis of several of our humble servants is consistent with the results of the Phoenix Princess's questioning. Moreover, even if I don't want to admit it, I have to say that the Phoenix Princess is a genius in the medical field. If I were to diagnose the case, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to control the poison in such a short time. Moreover, this poison is very strange and somewhat different from the usual poisons. It is very difficult to cure it."

This statement was also acknowledged by Lady Yu, "Your Majesty, what Imperial Doctor Wan said is absolutely right. This is not an ordinary poison. I am not talented enough to know that I have no ability to detoxify it, but Princess Feng was able to suppress it with just a few silver needles. This shows that her skills are extraordinary."

"Not only the Phoenix Princess, the ghost doctor's methods are also perfect. When paired with the Phoenix Princess, it's simply perfect!"

Immediately afterwards, several imperial doctors praised the two of them from the bottom of their hearts, completely unaware of Wei Yuchen's increasingly gloomy expression.

In their hearts, the road of studying medicine has been endless since ancient times. Now they are fortunate enough to meet two legendary god-level figures. They are so happy that they forget the occasion. It was not until Wei Yuchen finally couldn't hold back his outburst that they realized what they had just said.

"That means you didn't even find any poison today?"

"I am guilty."

Faced with Wei Yuchen's anger, everyone knelt down and apologized.

Wei Yuchen was already on the verge of a rage, but when he thought of the Queen Mother's accusations and anger towards him, coupled with the fact that he had just hacked to death two eunuchs, if another bloody incident occurred, not only would the Queen Mother be dissatisfied, but all the officials would also jointly appeal.

It is enough for such a thing to happen once in this life. Wei Yuchen asked himself if he had the nerve to accept it a second time.

He immediately kicked the head of the Imperial Hospital who was kneeling in front of him and said, "Get lost. What use do I have for you? You are not even as good as a little yellow-haired girl and a quack doctor who can't even tell whether he is a man or a woman when he sees his true face. Did a donkey kick your head?"

Dean Wan was kicked over by Wei Yuchen and his ribs hurt so much that he had trouble breathing, but he didn't dare to cry out in pain. He turned over and slowly stood up. Just as he was about to bow and leave, Wei Yuchen's voice suddenly rang out from behind him: "Is that ghost doctor really someone Ling Yuan sent here?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone knelt on the ground again. They were just doctors, how could they know these things? However, the ghost doctor really followed the Phoenix King to the Rong Palace!

But their answers made Wei Yuchen even more angry. They were all very discerning people and immediately left the imperial study.

The beautiful lady Yu was left to serve bravely by the emperor's side, but the emperor's expression frightened her so much that she dared not even breathe.

At that time in Yongning Palace, Qiu Zhen and Mu Han were also discussing the situation at Prince Rong's Mansion.

Especially when she mentioned the poison in Prince Rong's body, she suddenly looked at Mu Han and said, "Do you think the poison was given by the Emperor?"

Mu Han felt a chill in her heart. Not to mention Qiu Zhen thinking so, she had also thought about it in this direction, but she couldn't show it on the surface.

"My lady, please be careful with your words. There are ears on the other side of the wall."

Then he took a step forward and whispered, "Whether the poison was given by the emperor or not, it is an established fact that Prince Rong was poisoned. It is also a fact that the poison is difficult to cure. If we think so, the queen mother will definitely think so too. The ministers' hearts are like mirrors, and they will think so too."

"If the poison was really given by the emperor, it would be fine. But if not, the result is obvious. It is clearly intended to alienate the relationship between the empress dowager and the emperor, and the relationship between the emperor and his subjects. It is obvious that the means of the person behind this are shocking!"

After Mu Han's analysis, Qiu Zhen was also shocked. She looked at the flickering candlelight thoughtfully, "Your Majesty, would you really do this?"

When Wei Li, who was far away in the South China Sea, saw Bai Falcon and heard about Prince Rong's situation, his eyes suddenly became as cold as a knife: "Fifteen years?"

"My Lord, Princess Feng did say that, and this is a poison. It has been initially confirmed to be from the Western Regions, but we haven't found a cure yet. We can only temporarily suppress the prince's condition. Princess Feng and the ghost doctor are trying to do experiments."

"How confident are they?"

"Princess Feng said that it is currently 40%. If it can be thoroughly analyzed, it can be increased to 80%."

After hearing this, Wei Li, who was originally very nervous, suddenly felt relieved.

Bai Falcon sensed his master's emotional fluctuations and looked at him curiously: "Master? What's wrong with you? Don't you plan to go back?"

go back?

Yes, such a big thing happened to Prince Rong. Logically speaking, as his son, he should rush back as soon as possible.

However, he wanted to do the opposite.

"Feng Wang, I believe in him."

Bai Falcon looked up in surprise, "My Lord, do you mean you are not going back?"

How is that possible?

"Since you are here, there is no need for me to stay. Come on, come with me."

Wait, what does this mean? If not going back to the palace, where to go?

"My father's poison outbreak actually involves fifteen years ago. The poison that was hidden in my father's body for fifteen years suddenly broke out. Don't you think it's weird?"

"I am indeed puzzled, but even if we want to understand what happened fifteen years ago, we have to find a breakthrough from the prince, right?"

After all, how old was Wei Li fifteen years ago? One year old, maybe? What could a one-year-old child know?

Even if their organization is powerful, it's been fifteen years since the incident, and they may not find anything, right?

However, what Bai Shun didn't know was that although Wei Li was only one year old at the time, his mental state was already that of a man in his twenties, so he could never look at Wei Li with the eyes of an ordinary person.

So Wei Li didn't intend to explain anything about this, but...

"Where's my brother? Any news about him?"

Bai Falcon shook his head: "After the young master left, it was difficult to contact him. I don't know if the young master will know that the prince is in trouble, but since the people in Siyou country already know about it, I believe it won't be long before it spreads throughout the world, right?"

"No, it won't. The Emperor won't let this get out."

All he could do was to block the news as soon as possible. Once the news leaked out, he would be the one who suffered the most.

"Why?"

"Because once the news of my father's poisoning spreads, who do you think the common people will think is the one who poisoned him?"

Bai Falcon's eyes flashed. If it was the emperor of another country, he would not be sure. But if it was the emperor of their Siyou country, and someone with a criminal record, or even an emperor who was not legitimate, then it would be worth it for the people behind the scenes to think deeply.

"So that's how it is. What should we do with the young master?"

Wei Li waved his hand, "Don't worry about this matter. It doesn't matter whether my elder brother comes back or not. The Phoenix King will naturally cure my father."

Phoenix King?

Bai Shun's mouth twitched. Since when did the relationship between their young master and His Majesty the Phoenix King become so good?

Thinking of this, he asked, "My Lord, when did you become so close to His Majesty the Phoenix King? However, this time, His Majesty was also lucky that His Majesty the Phoenix King responded in time, otherwise, if it were those imperial doctors, they would have died long ago."

"Where's your sister?"

Wei Li did not answer Bai Xun's words, but asked his sister instead.

Wei Tanya has already reached the age of marriage. In her early years, she followed the empress dowager to worship Buddha. Later, she felt that this life was too boring, and after he left Beijing, she also left a letter and ran away from home. The irresponsible attitudes of these brother and sister are really exactly the same.

While Wei Li felt helpless, he couldn't help but shed a tear of sympathy for Prince Rong and his wife.

"The young princess does have news, and I have sent someone to pass on the message, but it is still unclear when she will return."

Wei Li nodded, "It's okay. As long as Princess Feng is here, she will definitely save my father. So, you go back first, and I will leave here. I will inform you if there is any news. If there is any progress on your side, you are not allowed to hide anything."

"Yes, Your Highness." Wei Li nodded slightly and soon disappeared. Bai Falcon was stunned for a moment and shook his head.

"The prince is clearly at the point of death, so why are all his children away? Alas, poor princess, you have to worry about the children, you have to worry about your husband, and you have to keep an eye on those restless illegitimate children and concubines in the mansion. You are really exhausted!"

He had no chance to complain or rest. He immediately jumped on his horse and galloped in the direction he came from.

After Wei Li returned to the garrison, he went to the commander's shed first. Considering his father's situation, he did not announce it to the public, but only asked to leave and would come back after he finished the things at hand.

The commander himself felt that letting these young masters come here would only cause trouble for himself.

Although the performance of some of them, especially that of Prince Li, was unexpectedly outstanding, they had been training very disciplined.

But it’s only been a short time and his true nature has already been exposed?

But he thought that he had not disciplined the empress dowager's beloved child, so he agreed immediately.

Before leaving, all those friends came over and asked him about the situation, but Wei Li dismissed them with a few words.

How could they control where he went?

He immediately jumped on his horse and left without even an explanation.

The place Wei Li went to this time was the first intelligence organization of Tiandu Kingdom, Wuque Mansion.

Wugou Wugou, the person behind the scenes is naturally Zhangsun Wugou.

Some things cannot be explained clearly in a letter, and only by meeting in person can we ensure that the information is not leaked.

Wuqiu Prefecture is located within the territory of Tiandu Country, in completely opposite directions from Siyou Country.

Therefore, Wei Li had to travel day and night for at least half a month on this journey.

But when Wei Li thought of an incident that he still remembered vividly fifteen years ago, he could no longer stop.

Especially since he had always had strong doubts about his identity. If he was really just a child, it would be fine, but he was born with memories, so he knew very well what his relationship with his current father was...

There was a heavy rain last night. The rain was so heavy that it washed the capital of Siyou Kingdom exceptionally clean. Even the temperature was a few degrees lower than usual. It was neither too cold nor too hot, but very comfortable.

In the early morning, people were cleaning the streets in groups of three or four. The air was much fresher than usual, with a hint of earthy fragrance.

But some people have no time to appreciate these things. They keep waving the whip in their hands at the mounts they regard as their partners. The well-bred white horses seem to be able to sense their owner's anxiety and run wildly without any complaints.

On horseback, a young man in gray and wearing a bamboo hat shouted to the pedestrians in groups of three or four: "Quickly make way, please make way, please make way!"

The horse galloped through three streets in a row before its owner tightened the reins on it fifty meters away from Prince Rong's mansion.

"Oh..., wind, hurry up, stop, we're here, we're here!"

Due to inertia, the horse ran for more than ten meters before finally stopping.

The young man in gray jumped down, not caring about the horse behind him, and ran towards Prince Rong's palace.

Seeing the open door, the boy's heart sank to the bottom.

You know, among the aristocratic families in the capital, few people open the front door on weekdays. If there weren't a lot of people coming and going recently, why would they open the front door for no reason?

His face changed immediately and he walked inside. The guards at the door drew their swords and stepped forward when they saw someone coming.

"Who are you? This is Prince Rong's residence, stop!"

The young man's clear eyes under the bamboo hat suddenly became fierce, "Get out of the way, do I need you to inform me when I return home? Get out of the way and take good care of my horse. If anything goes wrong, I'll hold you responsible!"

Princess?

Oh my god, the princess is back. The guards immediately knelt down and said, "I didn't know the princess came back. I deserve to die!"

"Stop talking nonsense and take good care of my Feng'er."

Although the figure had gone far away, the command was still faintly conveyed.

The two looked up and saw, as expected, a white horse lying exhausted on the cold ground, its long tongue sticking out.
