139. Chapter 139 The Imperial Physician Actually Said So



"When Marquis Pingyang came out of Ci'an Palace today, he did have a quick encounter with Concubine Han."

Emperor Qixuan's jaw tightened and his expression became ugly.

The wife of the governor of Luozhou was the empress dowager's younger sister and also his aunt.

The Concubine Han who was sent to the palace was a concubine's daughter of the Han family.

Emperor Qixuan clenched his fists tightly, his face looked frighteningly gloomy, and there was a hint of disdain in his tone.

"He is old, but he holds a grudge against me just because I told him the truth. He spreads rumors and creates troubles. He is so narrow-minded and mean!"

Emperor Qixuan became more and more angry as he spoke, "How old is he? Yaoyao is not even a fraction of his age!"

"Why do you have to involve children in matters between adults?!"

Seeing that veins bulged on his forehead with anger, the Imperial Concubine patted his hand soothingly.

"Your Majesty, calm down."

Her complexion has returned to normal.

I had expected this and I was already angry about it.

In fact, when she heard Ah Shi talk about this matter, she subconsciously thought that it was Marquis Pingyang who was behind it.

As expected!

"Su Maowen!"

Su Maowen stepped forward tremblingly, "The servant is here."

Emperor Qixuan's tone was full of chill, "Go and pass on the imperial decree to immediately demote Han to a commoner and send her to the cold palace!"

"Also, have the Censorate conduct a thorough investigation of the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion!"

There was a cold light in Emperor Qixuan's eyes. In this imperial palace, someone spread a rumor that his own daughter was a monster?

Does Pingyang Hou still have regard for him as the emperor? !

If the Pingyang Marquis Mansion is really not clean.

Then don’t blame him for not caring about family ties!

The next morning, Chu Yaoyao opened her eyes and habitually checked the system panel. When she saw the progress on it, the yawn that was about to come to her lips was scared away.

[What happened? It fell again?! ]

I saw the counterattack progress of Silence turning into 86 on the panel.

Chu Yaoyao sat up suddenly.

【What is the reason this time? 】

After a long while, the system spoke.

System: It was Shi Jingjing who, through a few poems, helped the male protagonist create the image of a poet banished to the mortal world.

Chu Yaoyao was so surprised that her mouth opened wide unconsciously.

[Is this... the power of love? ]

[She doesn't plan to be a poet anymore?! ]

[Giving up even your reputation? ]

System: I don’t know about this, but the hero has been in the limelight these days. Many students have come to the capital of Xiyue in the hope of receiving his guidance and reading his poems.

【So annoying! 】

Chu Yaoyao scratched her head frantically, and her hair, which was already a little messy from sleeping, now turned into a mess.

It would definitely be too late to stop and disrupt their plans in the short term.

But we can't just sit and wait.

When I woke up, I was deducted 20 points. Who can bear this? !

It was such a pity that all the points I had worked so hard to get were deducted! Looking at the remaining points, Chu Yaoyao had a bold idea!

She swiped directly to the big turntable interface and was about to poke it with her little finger.

The system noticed her intention and quickly warned her.

System: Wait a minute! The host can draw the lottery, but to be on the safe side, you should keep half of your points.

Chu Yaoyao, with her messy hair, blinked in confusion.

What does it mean?

System: If the counterattack progress continues to regress and the points are insufficient, the host will be punished.

After hearing this explanation, Chu Yaoyao was so angry that she lay back and waved her hands weakly.

[Destroy it! This mission cannot be completed! ]

Seeing her dejected look, the system also became anxious.

As soon as it finished speaking, Chu Yaoyao's eyes lit up, and she rolled over and lay on the bed.

"Yes!"

She clicked on the trading interface, her big round eyes sparkling.

If you want points, look for Leah! But her profile picture was gray, indicating that the transaction could not be carried out at the moment.

Chu Yaoyao let out a heavy breath in frustration.

The system doesn't understand why the host subconsciously thinks of Leah.

Is it because they can't eat fruit? Why don't they ask Ruan Nuo for help? If you really count, Ruan Nuo owes his host a lot.

System: Um...why not look for Ruan Nuo?

[That’s right! ]

Chu Yaoyao was about to raise her hand when she heard her mother's voice coming from outside: "Yao'er, are you awake?"

Then came Ah Shi's reply, "I just heard some noise inside."

The door creaked open.

I saw my mother approaching hurriedly.

"Yao'er, pack up quickly, let's go to Fengyi Palace to visit the Queen."

As they spoke, the Imperial Concubine and Chunshi quickly helped her wash and change her clothes.

Chu Yaoyao was forced to raise her hands and legs, looking at the two of them in confusion, "Empress, what's wrong?"

The Imperial Concubine sighed, with a hint of sadness on her face.

"Last night, Madam Zhou suddenly fell into a coma. When the Queen heard about this, she became overly worried and became ill due to anxiety."

"Mrs. Zhou?"

Chu Yaoyao plucked her soft hair.

[The wife of Master Zhou? ]

[Yes, it is mentioned in the original text that after Madam Zhou died, Grand Tutor Zhou was too sad and died soon after.]

Hearing this, the Imperial Concubine's hands, which were helping her put on her clothes, trembled violently.

Could it be that Old Madam Zhou really couldn't make it this time? Old Madam Zhou had many students all over the world and was a literary giant in Daqi.

He is the most respected person in the hearts of Daqi's civil officials and students.

If anything happened to him, I'm afraid the whole Daqi would be in panic.

While thinking, the mother and daughter came to Fengyi Palace.

All the concubines gathered here, and when they saw the mother and daughter, many of them subconsciously shrank back.

I guess he heard the rumors last night.

The imperial concubine's face turned cold, and she wanted to give him a warning.

But Chu Yaoyao just snorted at them and dragged her mother inside.

[I won't argue with you! ]

Several people went into the queen's bedroom, where the imperial physician was taking her pulse.

Emperor Qixuan was still attending court in the Tai'an Hall, so he was not present.

The prince was standing by, and when he saw them coming, he quickly turned his head, avoiding their sight, and raised his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes.

Chu Yaoyao let go of her mother's hand and ran over.

"Brother Crown Prince, Mother will definitely make it alright!"

“Yaoyao!”

Hearing her voice, the queen suddenly shouted, opened her eyes and sat up.

Seeing Yaoyao's small figure, she struggled to get off the bed and staggered to Yaoyao's side in two steps.

She clutched Yaoyao's small shoulders tightly, her eyes were red and swollen, and full of pleading.

"Yaoyao, can you please ask the immortal to save my grandmother?"

Seeing her like this, the prince suppressed his grief, asked the others to leave, and then helped her up.

"Mother, please don't be like this."

He looked sad, "The imperial physician said that my great-grandmother is about to die."

Hearing this, Chu Yaoyao was slightly stunned.

[Is this what the imperial physician actually said? ]

[But I remember that Madam Zhou died of poisoning! ]
