Chapter 87: The Vicious Queen Mother vs. the Beautiful Factory Manager (85)
Xiao Luochen narrowed his pupils, and in an instant, the two points of doubt in his heart were dispelled. The person in front of him was Sheng Wu!
Su Yi, on the other hand, looked terrified, as if something serious had been discovered.
Widow Shen Yan also heard the exclamation and immediately frowned and looked at Xiao Luochen. This man could actually be the emperor of this dynasty!
But she had no time to be surprised.
because.
Xiao Luochen directly took Sheng Wu's hand and was about to leave.
"Sheng Wu, I'll take you back to the palace first. It's not safe outside!"
His secret guard received strange news that the deceased Sheng Wu was currently in a place in Shengjing, and asked him to rush there immediately.
The details have not been investigated yet. Now that Sheng Wu has been found, it is safest to bring her back to the palace first.
"Brother, I don't know you. What do you want to do?"
Hearing this, Sheng Wu, who was dressed as a man, was bewildered. She waved her arms, trying to shake off Xiao Luochen's hand, but found that she couldn't shake it off at all.
There was a hint of anger in his tone.
Hearing this, Xiao Luochen's pupils trembled, as if he was hurt by her attitude as if she were a stranger, and his scarlet pupils half closed.
"You, you really don't recognize me."
He had just thought that she was still blaming him, but the look in her eyes when she looked at him was extremely indifferent.
Xiao Luochen's voice was hoarse and full of compassion.
How could it be that the person who was once so obsessed with me, and even risked his life to pave the way for me and clear away obstacles, forget me!
Xiao Luochen seemed unable to accept this fact and was a little dazed.
But Sheng Wu remained firm, "I'm sorry, I really don't know you. If you're okay, please let me go."
Having said that, Sheng Wu was about to hold Chen Yanshuang's hand and continue to leave.
But.
Xiao Luochen would never let go.
He kept a stern expression on his face as he stared at Sheng Wu's every move. His eyes were deep, soft, yet paranoid.
Just then, the chief steward and three secret guards came down.
"master!"
The chief steward looked at the three people confronting each other in front of him, especially the man who looked 70% similar to Sheng Wu. His eyes were suddenly shocked. They really looked alike!
But, this is a man!
"Take the other two women back to the palace!"
Xiao Luochen glanced at the crowd who had already noticed the situation here. Afraid that something might go wrong, he gave orders in a stern voice.
"yes!"
Sheng Wu was very resistant and was about to take Chen Yanshuang's hand and retreat.
"What are you going to do! You..."
As he said that, Xiao Luochen stepped forward, raised his hand and slashed at the back of Sheng Wu's neck, knocking her unconscious, and then he held her in his arms.
Seeing this, Shen Yanshuang was really angry.
"Even if you are really the emperor, you can't rob the people like this! Besides, he is clearly a man, even his pulse is the same! He is not an empress dowager at all!"
During the time she traveled through time, she had heard many rumors circulating privately in Shengjing.
Especially about the current emperor and empress dowager!
However, she had taken Sheng Wu's pulse so many times these days, and it was clearly a man's pulse!
"You, don't come over here!"
But now Xiao Luochen was in a very bad mood. He gave a look to the three secret guards, who all stepped forward and casually knocked out Chen Yanshuang and Su Yi, who had no martial arts skills.
Also took it away.
However, Chen Yanshuang and Su Yi were carried away.
Sheng Wu was carried away horizontally by Xiao Luochen.
From beginning to end, Pei Yuqing hid behind the pillars of the tall building and watched coldly.
However, the letter paper in his hand was almost torn into pieces by him.
When Mingyu saw Shengwu being hugged by Xiao Luochen, he looked anxious, but he could only clench his fists, grit his teeth and keep silent.
After seeing the figures of several people disappearing into the arch bridge below.
Pei Yuqing then turned around coldly, with no fluctuation in his voice.
"Go back home."
Hearing this, Mingyu was a little surprised and worried, "Master, don't you want to go to the palace to take a look?"
What if the emperor really discovered Sheng Wu’s plan and did something bad to her?
However, at this moment, Pei Yuqing was in no mood to think about Mingyu's words, and his face was cold and gloomy.
"She said this was the last time she would use me, and that she and I no longer owe each other anything."
With his lips tightly pursed, his handsome and feminine face was covered with frost, and his breath was terrifyingly cold.
Having said that, he turned around and strode away.
Without any hesitation.
And there were only two sentences on that piece of paper.
"Han Du used poison to fight poison, and he eliminated the poison that had been in your body for years. You and I owe each other nothing. I truly don't deserve anyone's love, and neither do you."
......
Inside the palace.
The night was deep and dark, and the harem was under curfew.
However, in the closed Cining Palace, the lights were bright, contrary to the normal state of the past few days.
And on the bed in the bedroom, there was a woman lying.
It is Shengwu.
The attire she had worn before, which was disguised as a man, and the heroic look on her face due to makeup, had been removed by the palace maids.
"how!"
Xiao Luochen sat beside her bed, holding Sheng Wu's hand tightly with one hand and wiping the cold sweat from her face with the other.
The imperial physician kneeling on the ground diagnosing the patient was still the unfortunate Li Shuhuai.
He withdrew his hand tremblingly and reported.
"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager..." He paused, a little hesitant, wondering how to address the deceased "Empress Dowager".
Xiao Luochen spoke directly and coldly, staring at Sheng Wu's charming face, his eyes were gentle, and his magnetic voice was firm.
"She will be my queen!"
Ever since the palace maid changed Sheng Wu's clothes and cleaned her up, he has been holding Sheng Wu's hand tightly, not daring to let go at all.
It seemed as if he was afraid that if he let go, she would disappear forever.
Hearing this, Li Shuhuai, who had lowered his eyes slightly and dared not look around, couldn't help but look up with a look of surprise and looked at him in shock.
Queen!
But, but Sheng Wu was the Empress Dowager before! Although it seems that she had not yet consummated her marriage with the late emperor, she was still the emperor's mother known to the world!
"Why, you don't understand what I'm saying!"
Xiao Luochen didn't hear Li Shuhuai's movements for a long time. His narrow and sharp eagle eyes darkened, and he looked down at him coldly with the powerful pressure of an emperor.
"I dare not!"
Li Shuhuai is very sensible.
"Your Majesty, the Empress has been mentally and physically devastated lately. Her chest injury has worsened, and she has a mild case of typhoid fever. I'm afraid it's difficult to treat. As for her amnesia, it could be caused by a head injury or a major emotional upheaval. Perhaps she'll recover with some time to recuperate."
Hearing this, Xiao Luochen's gaze, which had just been fixed on Sheng Wu, suddenly turned gloomily and terrifyingly to look at Li Shuhuai, and he spoke directly in a harsh voice.
"What did you say! What do you eat? When she was in the harem, I asked you to treat her well. It's only been a few days, how could it be..."
Having said that, Xiao Luochen was a little stagnant, as if he didn't dare to say more.
Li Shuhuai hurriedly explained, sweat breaking out on his forehead, "Your Majesty, I was indeed nursing the Empress back then, but the poison she took that day was indeed detrimental to her lungs. Now, I don't know what other medicine she's taken, but she appears healthy, but in reality, she's just holding on."
Hearing this, Xiao Luochen's pupils trembled, and he felt a hidden pain that was hard to accept.
how so!
He finally found her, but...
"...If she is taken good care of, how long can she live?"
Li Shuhuai frowned and made a conservative estimate.
"...Probably, ten years at most!"
And now, Sheng Wu is only twenty years old.
Hearing this, Xiao Luochen's breathing held fast, his other hand clenched into a fist, and he remained silent. He seemed to be shrouded in a layer of gloom, and the air was filled with a cold and suffocating oppression.
Li Shuhuai quickly diagnosed the patient, re-applied the medicine, and left quickly.
Only Xiao Luochen and Sheng Wu were left in the bedroom.
There are no outsiders behind.
Xiao Luochen sat on the edge of the bed, holding Sheng Wu's hands tightly with both hands. He looked at her, who even though she was sleeping soundly, had a frown on her face and looked very uneasy, with eyes full of heartache and pity.
"Sheng Wu, I believe you this time. Please don't leave, okay?"
Although, Sheng Wu's disappearance and sudden appearance raised too many doubts.
Although, she forgot herself by disguising herself as a man.
Although, there seemed to be a lot of distance between them.
However, this time, he chose to believe in her unwaveringly!
He no longer dared to gamble all his suspicions and doubts on her.
