Chaos broke out.
Fengyi Palace.
The bright red decoration showed the joy of the wedding. There were big red double happiness patterns on the windows, but the atmosphere in the house was tense.
"emperor,"
The imperial physician withdrew his hand and said, "The queen is just suffering from a heart attack due to anger, it's nothing serious, you just need to rest well and you will recover."
Chu Yeli stood in front of the couch, his eyes fixed on the woman on the couch.
"Prescribe the best medicine."
"yes."
The imperial physician picked up the box and quietly left.
The man turned around and sat down in front of the couch. He wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief wetted with warm water, then picked up her pale and cold hands and wiped each fingertip carefully.
Very patient.
Xiaojiu, don't blame me for being cruel. You were the one who betrayed me first.
Have a good sleep.
When I woke up, everything was over.
His strong knuckles gently stroked the corners of her eyes, eyebrows, along her contours and then to her jaw, with great affection.
"Report!"
Outside the palace, the guards came running.
"Your Majesty, the rebels are resisting with all their might and have already fled the city. Some officials have also defected and fled with them!"
It's crazy.
Don’t these officials even want their lives?
The regent is already dead. Don’t they understand which side they should take and which king they should support?
"Report!"
Another person came running over, "Your Majesty, Commander Xiao has summoned the Regent's Black Armored Guards and taken them all away!"
"Report..."
The urgent reports were not good news, but Chu Yeli still underestimated Chu Dichi. Even though the person was dead, he still had such a strong appeal.
"The situation is already decided. It's just a fight between trapped beasts."
Chu Yeli sneered.
"I have plenty of time. I'll slowly clear them out. Pass the order down and chase them!"
"yes!"
-
At this moment, there were countless pursuers several miles outside the imperial capital.
In the carriage, Xiao Yexing supported Chu Dichi, whose life or death was uncertain. The man's head hung weakly, and Bai Jinyi screamed in fear:
"I finally saved him a few days ago, how come he is like this again?"
"What? She was stabbed by Chu Li. Is she crazy?"
"insanity?"
"The witchcraft of the southern barbarians is secretive and evil. Even our Divine Doctor Valley dare not touch it lightly. It is indeed an evil thing that goes against human nature!"
Xiao Yexing said in a deep voice:
"Stop talking nonsense. The pursuers are still behind us. Find a way to rescue them first!"
Qin Muyu rode over and said, "The pursuers are following closely. I'm afraid we won't be able to shake them off in a short time. The hasty journey is not convenient for the Regent to recover from his injuries. We should split our forces into two groups."
Xiao Yexing opened the curtains and said:
"I'm afraid we can't go to Jiangnan anymore. The Divine Doctor Valley is also dangerous."
Qin Muyu's eyes darkened:
"Go to Southern Xinjiang!"
He has already conquered Southern Xinjiang, and now it is his territory. However, Tuoba Mingyue has been with Chu Yeli and has not sent troops to retake Southern Xinjiang.
"Rush to Southern Xinjiang, I will take the son of King Yin back to Nanman, disrupt Nanman's internal affairs, and lure Tuoba Mingyue away. By then, Chu Yeli will be isolated and helpless, which is the best time for the Regent to recuperate."
Xiao Yexing was relieved: "Qin Muyu, you have grown up, and now you are one tenth as calm as your uncle."
"..."
Walking in the night with nothing to do.
Something happened, uncle.
-
The troops were divided into two groups, and a small elite force was assigned to protect the regent.
The pursuers were led away.
Once you are far away from the imperial capital, you can't catch up no matter how hard you try.
The intelligence from the front was sent back to the imperial capital, and Chu Yeli calmly issued an order: "Block the Jiangnan area. Anyone who accepts the rebels will be killed along with his entire clan."
"Also, keep an eye on the Divine Doctor Valley, especially the one called Bai Jinyi."
He took out the secret letter from his sleeve,
"Go check again to see who sent this secret letter."
Who betrayed the Regent?
He is very curious.
The person who knew that the Regent was still alive must be someone close to the Regent. Even a vigilant person like Chu Dichi had a spy among his confidants.
Now that the Regent has been defeated, what is this person's purpose?
Orders were given one after another, and two days passed in the blink of an eye. Outside, the pursuit was rapid, but in Fengyi Palace, Chu Yeli's expression became more and more gloomy:
"It's been two days, why hasn't the Queen woken up yet?"
The imperial physician was terrified:
"Your Majesty, I have examined the Empress' pulse and found that apart from being a little weak and feeble, she has no other symptoms..."
"If that's the case, why would he sleep for two days and two nights? It must be because your medical skills are not good enough!"
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
The imperial physician knelt on the ground, trembling with fear,
"Your Majesty, this is... a mental illness... A mental illness needs to be treated with a mental medicine. Maybe... maybe you don't want to wake up..."
“Asshole!”
Using such mysterious words to fool him, is this medical skill or mysterious magic?
"Tell the entire Imperial Hospital that no matter what means are used, the Queen must be awakened as soon as possible, otherwise, you will lose your heads!"
The imperial physician was so frightened that he crawled out, sweating profusely. He hurried back to the Imperial Hospital to find a solution together with the other imperial physicians.
Chu Yeli sat in front of the couch, holding Chu Li's soft and weak hand, looking at her pale face, and whispered:
"Xiaojiu...Xiaojiu, don't sleep any more, wake up quickly."
"As long as you wake up, I will grant you whatever you want."
On the couch, the woman closed her eyes, her face was bloodless, her thin lips were dry, her breathing was so shallow that the rise and fall of her chest could hardly be heard, as if she had fallen asleep forever...
There was a thick fog.
Being pulled into an abyss.
When she could see clearly again, she opened her eyes and saw the young boy hiding behind a large pillar, peeking into the majestic palace:
The King of Chu sat upright, frowning:
"Is he reading "The Instructions of the Holy Ancestors"? "
Eunuch Fu whispered, "The maid downstairs reported that the Seventh Prince hid the book under his pillow and read it secretly when no one was around."
"What a courage!"
The Emperor of Chu closed the memorial and threw it on the table. The air in the imperial study became three degrees colder.
"I have been lenient with him because we are brothers from the same mother, but he is so young and he actually reads the "Instructions of the Holy Ancestor". Could it be that he wants to replace me and covet my throne in the future!"
Eunuch Fu lowered his head slightly and said cautiously:
"Your Majesty, I heard that the late emperor left a will, asking you to take extra care of His Highness the Seventh Prince..."
Bang!
With a slap on the table, all the sounds stopped abruptly.
The King of Chu looked gloomy and angry for a moment, then said sternly: "Since he is not honest, don't blame me for not thinking of the friendship between brothers."
"Tell the maid to put a slow-acting poison in his food..."
The young man hiding behind the pillar covered his mouth in shock, his almond-shaped eyes widened.
Seeing the palace maid leaving the imperial study with a black bottle, the young man started to trot after her.
The poison was poured into the soup.
The maid carried the tray and went to the palace in the most remote corner of the palace.
"Seventh Prince, it's time to eat."
The palace was simple and dilapidated, but inside lived a cold-faced and silent young man. His cold clothes were washed to the point of being gray, but they could not conceal his tall figure and noble temperament at all.
"Leave it to me." When Nanny Zhu went forward to take the tray, a short and plump figure suddenly bumped into her.
"Ouch!"
Bang!
The soup spilled all over the floor.
The maid saw this and pointed angrily: "Who has no eyes..."
The little fat boy put his hands on his hips and said, "My name is Chu Li, what can I do for you?"
