In Bei Mingxuan's heart, he would not allow any danger that might hurt Chang'an.
Late at night, Bei Mingxuan and Chang'an had already gone to bed.
Outside the dormitory, Fu Cheng was on duty.
The emperor had already expected that the empress dowager would return tonight.
really……
Xu Yitong walked over in a hurry.
"Where's the Emperor?"
"Fu Cheng greets the Queen Mother. Is there anything the Queen Mother needs to come here for?"
"Stop talking nonsense." Xu Yitong said, and was about to push the door open.
"Empress Dowager, the Emperor and Empress have gone to bed." Fu Cheng immediately stopped him, and his voice was deliberately lowered. "The Empress is pregnant and always sleeps restlessly. Please speak softly."
“…”Speak softly?
Xu Yitong was unhappy in her heart, but suddenly there was embarrassment on her face, and her voice became much softer. "Yes, yes, Chang'an and the child are more important."
Fu Cheng looked at the empress dowager and felt puzzled. The emperor ordered him to pay attention to why the empress dowager's attitude towards Chang'an suddenly changed.
Is it just because Changan lost his memory?
"But you still have to report to the emperor that something happened to Mengyun." Xu Yitong's voice was very low, and his face was full of anxiety.
"Mengyun? Miss Xu?" Fu Cheng asked, "Miss Xu, she's not in the prison, and tomorrow..."
As he spoke, Fu Cheng suddenly stopped and subconsciously looked towards the door, although he could not see inside the house.
"I have an urgent matter!" Xu Yitong's tone hardened.
"Yes. Your Majesty, please wait a moment." Fu Cheng was not tactless.
soon.
Bei Mingxuan helped Chang'an out.
Both of them had sleepy eyes, and it was obvious that they had just been woken up.
"What's going on?" Bei Mingxuan asked, "It's so late, isn't Queen Mother resting yet?"
Xu Yitong looked at Chang'an beside Bei Mingxuan. When she thought of Mengyun committing suicide in prison, she felt angry and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"..." Chang'an frowned slightly, glanced at Xu Yitong, turned around and walked into the house.
Xu Yitong glanced and saw a hint of unhappiness on Bei Mingxuan's face, and immediately spoke.
"Changan, you are very pregnant and you are about to give birth.
I'm worried that you might catch a cold and get hurt...
Mengyun committed suicide in prison. I am very sad, so I spoke to you in a harsh tone..."
"I understand." Chang'an didn't say anything extra, and Bai Lu helped him back to the room.
In the prison.
Xu Zichu stayed by his sister's side, and Xu Yitong's face was covered with tears.
"Did she use this to commit suicide?" Bei Mingxuan looked at the broken porcelain bowl on the ground.
"Perhaps." Xu Zichu's eyes were slightly dazed. "She left this for the Emperor."
It was written in blood from a corner of his clothes.
[Cousin, since we are not destined to meet in this life, let's wait for the next life. Mengyun is leaving first. I hope I can meet you soon in the next life.]
Bei Mingxuan remained silent for a long time. The only sound in the cell was Xu Yitong's cries...
"Fu Lin, please arrange for a proper burial." Bei Mingxuan ordered.
"yes."
"No need." Xu Zichu picked up Xu Mengyun's body and said, "I'll take care of her affairs. As long as the emperor agrees, Zichu can take Mengyun's body out of the palace."
Bei Mingxuan didn't say anything else and glanced at Fu Lin.
"Master Xu, I will escort you and Miss Xu out of the palace."
"Xuan'er..." Xu Yitong said, "I once suspected that you were responsible for Mengyun's death, but when I saw her blood letter, I was truly relieved."
"Mother, you're overthinking it." Bei Mingxuan frowned and felt a chill coming over him.
Suddenly, ice began to form from the heart and spread to the limbs.
"Call, Fu Lin, Fu Cheng..."
At this moment, there was already a thin layer of ice on Bei Mingxuan's brows and hair.
"You, what's wrong with you?" Xu Yitong was frightened. She had never seen Bei Mingxuan like this.
She subconsciously supported Bei Mingxuan, but her cold body made her pull her hand back abruptly. "Cold poison?"
"Yeah." Bei Mingxuan's voice was weak, "Don't, don't let Chang'an know..."
"Okay, don't worry, she's pregnant now. I won't tell her anything that affects her mood."
Xu Yitong helped Bei Mingxuan sit aside and arranged for someone to find Fu Cheng and Fu Lin.
It was not until dawn that the layer of ice on Bei Mingxuan's body melted away.
But he was so exhausted that he fainted.
"Why is this happening?" Xu Yitong looked at Fu Cheng and Fu Lin. "Has the emperor's cold poison always been this severe?"
“Yes,” Fu Lin said, “Before the Empress came, the Emperor relied on alcohol.
Later, he met the Queen. When the Queen learned that the Emperor had a cold poison, she used the Drizzle Heart Method to help the Emperor suppress the cold poison.
"Then, quickly go and invite the Queen," Xu Yitong said, "Use the Drizzle Heart Technique to suppress the cold poison."
Fu Lin immediately said, "...Queen, I don't remember it now."
Xu Yitong: "...then, let's use the same wine as before?"
"After the Empress misunderstood and learned that Mr. Qingfeng's death was related to the Emperor, her eyes turned red and her hair turned white. At that time, the Emperor's anxiety caused the cold poison to worsen... He could no longer control his drinking."
"Empress Dowager," Fu Cheng said, "Perhaps the Emperor's days are numbered. If we could see the birth of the little prince, it would already be... considered a blessing.
The lotus on the emperor's finger is about to bloom to its fullest. When the lotus withers, life will also..."
Xu Yitong looked at Bei Mingxuan who was unconscious on the couch, and her heart ached beyond words.
It was because I was careless at the time that I was told fortunes by others.
Regardless of whether Nangong Qiuya knew it at the time, it was the Gu family who did it.
If not, how could I have been poisoned by the cold? If not, my son wouldn't be in so much pain now, especially... Especially when I think about the fact that he only has a few days left to live.
Thinking of this, Xu Yitong's face darkened, his eyes filled with anger. "Is there no way to completely eliminate the cold poison?"
Xu Yitong looked straight at Fu Lin.
However, Fu Lin turned away his eyes feeling a little guilty, especially when he thought of the words of Ling Xiao and the Queen in the secret room that day, which were still ringing in his ears.
If you really do that, you will be exchanging the Queen's life for the Emperor's life.
But Fu Lin knew very well that if anything happened to the Queen, the Emperor would not be in an easy situation.
"Fu Lin." Xu Yitong said coldly, "You really don't know?"
"have no idea."
"Empress Dowager." Fu Cheng explained immediately.
"If we knew how to get the emperor to remove the cold poison from his body, we would be willing to do it even if it meant sacrificing our lives."
Xu Yitong glanced at Fu Lin without saying anything. "Alright, I'll go see the Queen. You guys stay with the Emperor. When he wakes up, remember to tell me."
"yes."
"yes."
Xu Yitong came to the palace in Chang'an and looked from afar.
She has a stunning face, and even with a big belly and a bloated figure, it does not affect her beauty and composure at all.
