Emperor Jing raised his hand, which was adorned with Buddhist beads, and gestured to Xiao Changzi, who understood and brought over the plum blossom soup.
The moment she saw the plum blossom soup, a scene of her serving plum blossom soup to a man flashed through her mind.
Could it be King Hui?
"Qixuan," Fu Tong'er looked at the plum blossom soup in front of her without raising her head.
"Um?"
"Have I ever served you plum blossom soup before?"
Emperor Jing gathered Fu Tong'er's body in the shade and turned to look at King Hui who was sitting down.
There is a heavy thunderstorm outside.
Raindrops hit the upturned eaves of the Phoenix Palace.
King Hui supported his chin with his slender white fingers, the joints clearly defined. "You used to love me very much, and you gave me food every day."
Another thunderclap.
In the imperial concubine's palace, candlelight flickered.
"Really?" Fu Tong'er poured a bowl of plum blossom soup, "But I can't remember anything at all. I loved you very much before, why would I divorce you if I loved you?"
"Because the Ninth Prince stole you, took you away from me! He took you away from me, and refused to marry you. He kept dragging you along. Until today, you have become my father's concubine!"
Hong Yusu frowned upon hearing this, and holding the Dragon Slaying Sword, he said to Fu Tong'er, "Tongtong, Jiu Ye is not that kind of person. One night, you escaped from Prince Hui's Mansion wearing only your middle clothes, and it was Jiu Ye who saved you. Before that, you lost your energy and blood in Prince Hui's Mansion, and it was Jiu Ye who spent a lot of money to nurse you back to health."
"I don't remember." Fu Tong'er picked up the bowl and ate the plum blossom soup mouthful by mouthful. After a few mouthfuls, she couldn't eat any more.
I asked Qiao'er to go to the Regent Prince Chun's mansion to find the doctor sent by the Ninth Master, but I don't know if he has arrived yet.
Prince Chun's Palace
Qiao'er is in Jiu Ye's study.
The man was sitting at his desk, his hand, adorned with a jade ring, clenched into a fist on the table. The jade ornament hung steadily from his left earlobe.
"Master Jiu, the young lady asked you to send a doctor to the palace. She is not feeling well and has been nauseous."
"The Emperor is so..."
"Yes, His Majesty is having dinner in the Phoenix Palace. Prince Hui and General Hong are both here."
Qiao'er continued, "Your Majesty accepted the Queen's Phoenix Seal today."
"Um."
Qiao'er continued, "His Majesty also said that if the young lady gave birth to a dragon heir, he would be made the crown prince."
Lu Zhenzhi knocked on the table with his five knuckles, and the jade ornament hanging from his left ear trembled steadily, stop!
"Well." The man paused, "Go tell her that I will come to the palace to see her later."
"Yes, I'll go back and tell the young lady right away." Qiao'er had just stood up when Lu Zhenzhi continued, "Xiao Pu has gone on an errand for me. He will be back in a few days. You don't need to worry."
"Yes, Master Jiu..."
"You are of noble status," Lu Zhenzhi looked up at Qiao'er...
Qiao'er was stunned.
"Deputy General Xiao has been by my side for many years and has earned a good salary. I will have him marry you as a princess." Lu Zhenzhi's eyes were calm and composed. "Princess Chaogui, please do not be too obsessed with the affairs of the previous dynasty."
Qiao'er lowered her head, her ears red.
"You and her are master and servant, but you are also like sisters." Every word Lu Zhenzhi said was meaningful. "You must not use her in the palace to assassinate me."
After saying that, he waved his hand and said, "Go."
Qiao'er blushed, not daring to look up at Lu Zhenzhi. She just knelt and said, "It's all up to Master Jiu."
"Hmm." Lu Zhenzhi looked at the jade ring in his hand again and said calmly, "You and your sect members..."
Qiao'er suddenly raised her head and looked into Jiu Ye's deep eyes.
"Your Majesty is not as easy to fool as he appears. No more assassination attempts should happen in the near future." Lu Zhenzhi paused and continued, "I cannot hand over Qixuan's concubine Hong'er to you for instruction yet, and you are not to visit her in prison."
"yes."
"Well, go."
After Qiao'er stood up, she bowed again and left the Regent Prince Chun's Mansion.
Rush to the palace.
It was already dark at this time.
The rainstorm subsided a little.
In the imperial palace, in the Fenghuang Palace of the Imperial Concubine, Hong Yusu has left the palace and said he will return to the palace tomorrow. Emperor Jing has also left.
Outside, palace maids and guards were guarding the palace.
Fu Tong'er was lying leisurely on the chaise longue.
Suddenly, a voice said: "Your Majesty has arrived!"
She suddenly jumped up in shock. What was Emperor Jing planning to do so late at night?!
