Chapter 630: The Lost Dog
But it’s not possible now.
The remaining poison in the emperor's body has not been cleared, he is weak and his energy is not as good as before.
Now, let alone asking him to work eight hours, even if he works two hours, he feels tired.
But no matter how tired you are, you still have to do the work.
The emperor sat up with the help of Wan Jieyu and began to review the memorials.
Luo Qinghan retreated silently.
At noon, the prince went to Qingge Palace for lunch as usual.
The weather is hot now and Xiao Xixi doesn't want to eat hot food, so Baoqin prepares cold noodles for her.
In the middle is a large bowl of cold noodles, surrounded by more than a dozen side dishes and sauces of different flavors.
Xiao Xixi can cook noodles of any flavor she wants and add any sauce she wants, and she can also add any side dishes she wants.
She first mixed a bowl of light and refreshing cold noodles for the prince, and then mixed an extra-large bowl of spicy cold noodles for herself.
Xiao Xixi held the big bowl and slurped the noodles, her mouth full of chili oil.
While eating noodles, Luo Qinghan told Queen Qin about his visit this morning.
Xiao Xixi swallowed the food in her mouth and gave him a thumbs up: "Your Highness did a great job!"
Luo Qinghan: "Don't you think I'm too impulsive?"
Xiao Xixi clenched her fists: "No, I think His Highness is so handsome when he can stick to his heart and not be moved by external things!"
In order to express her admiration for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, she wiped the chili oil off her mouth and leaned over to smack him on the face.
When Eunuch Chang and Baoqin, who were standing nearby, saw this scene, they quickly turned their backs and pretended that they saw nothing.
Tsk tsk, Concubine Xiao is becoming less and less reserved, and can hug the prince and kiss him casually.
The Crown Prince, who was always aloof and indifferent, didn't even say anything about her.
Xiao Xixi sat back in her original seat and continued to eat her noodles.
Luo Qinghan touched his cheek that had been kissed and smiled.
It feels so good to always have someone who supports you unwaveringly.
Even when the prince left Qingge Palace, there was still a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
Eunuch Chang inadvertently caught a glimpse of that smile and understood in his heart that the reason why the prince was so happy was because of Concubine Xiao.
Although Concubine Xiao is lazy, greedy and always likes to say irrelevant things, the Crown Prince just falls for her.
But then again, ever since Concubine Xiao became favored, the Crown Prince's emotions have become more and more complicated. He would quarrel with Concubine Xiao from time to time, and he would no longer eat just a little bit during meals like before. He seemed to have a bit more worldly air.
The prince in the past was like an exquisite and beautiful doll.
And the current prince is a living person.
The Qin family was confiscated and exterminated.
…
More than 300 members of the Qin family, including Qin Xiya who had married into the Eastern Palace, were all executed.
On the same day, Queen Qin hanged herself in the Pepper Room, taking the three-foot white silk sent by the Emperor.
It was twenty days later when Prince Xiling learned of Queen Qin's death.
At this time, there are still ten days left to Xiling County.
Prince Xiling covered his chest with his hands, looking grim.
Seeing this, Xie Chuxue quickly fed him the medicine.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Prince Xiling finished taking the medicine, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, as if a large basin of boiling water was poured into him.
Then he opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of black blood!
Xie Chuxue exclaimed: "Father!"
The coachman heard the noise and immediately stopped the carriage.
All the guards moved closer to the carriage.
Xie Chuxue’s voice kept coming from the carriage.
"Father, what's wrong with you? Doctor, call the doctor!"
The guards looked at each other.
Where can I find a doctor in this remote place?
A confidant stepped forward and lifted the curtain of the carriage. He saw that Prince Xiling's eyes were closed, with black blood on his lips, his face was pale and blue, and his breath was weak. He looked very bad.
They quickly took King Xiling to find a doctor.
As a result, before the doctor was found, King Xiling died on the way.
The carriage slowly stopped.
Xie Chuxue lay on the body of King Xiling and cried breathlessly.
The guards gathered around the carriage in silence.
At this time, Luo Yunxuan got off another carriage.
He looked at the corpse of King Xiling in the car and laughed silently.
Xie Chuxue just looked up and saw his smile, and immediately became furious, pointing at him angrily.
"Father's medicine was poisoned. It must be you who did it!"
When the guards heard this, they immediately drew their swords and surrounded Luo Yunxuan.
Luo Yunxuan said calmly.
"King Xiling didn't have long to live, I just wanted to give him a quick death. If you want to live, you have to listen to me from now on."
Xie Chuxue cursed with red eyes: "Who do you think you are? How dare you, a stray dog, order us around?!"
Luo Yunxuan: "I am a lost dog, how are you any better than me? The rebellion of the King of Xiling failed. Even if he could escape back to Xiling County, the court would definitely send a large army to suppress him. How many people do you have in Xiling County? Can you compete with the army of the court?"
Xie Chuxue couldn't answer and her face became uglier.
Luo Yunxuan looked at the guards around him and asked calmly, "You are all from Xiling County. You should have many relatives and friends in Xiling County, right? Can you bear to see them all die under the iron hoofs of the imperial army?"
The guards were all silent.
Xie Chuxue wiped the tears from her face, her voice still a little tearful: "What do you want to say?"
Luo Yunxuan said slowly.
"I want you to understand that a half-dead Xiling King cannot save you, let alone Xiling County. If you want to escape this disaster, you have to listen to me."
Xie Chuxue looked at him warily: "What do you want to do?"
Luo Yunxuan: "First, you have to tell me where my mother is?"
Xie Chuxue: "I've already told you that Concubine Rou has been sent to Xiling County. You'll be able to see her when you get there..."
Luo Yunxuan interrupted her: "Don't fool me with this, I don't believe it. What did you do to my mother? Where is she now? I want to see her immediately!"
Xie Chuxue glanced at the King of Xiling who was no longer breathing in front of her, hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to tell the truth.
"We did send someone to escort Concubine Rou to Xiling County, but she was too weak and fell ill on the way and passed away."
Luo Yunxuan opened his eyes wide and froze in place, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.
In fact, as early as when Prince Xiling and Xie Chuxue had been refusing to let him see Concubine Rou, he had already guessed that something might have happened to Concubine Rou.
But now that he heard the bad news with his own ears, he still felt extremely sad.
Although Concubine Rou was timid and could not give him much protection and help, and he had to fight for what he wanted by himself, Concubine Rou truly loved him.
Now Concubine Rou is gone.
The person who would gently remind him to put on more clothes when it’s cold and to eat on time is gone.
Luo Yunxuan took a deep breath, clenched his hands into fists, and suppressed the grief and anger in his heart.
"When did it happen? Where is her body?"
Xie Chuxue pursed her lips and said, "She passed away five days ago. I had her buried. I think she was buried in the Tonghu Mountain area. I don't know the exact location."
Luo Yunxuan looked at her for a while with red eyes, then spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Go to a nearby town to buy a coffin, bury the body of King Xiling, and then continue on your journey."
I am finishing up recently, and there are many foreshadowings that need to be explained clearly. There are too many things to take into consideration, so I always delete and revise when writing, so the update is always not timely. I am very sorry~
In addition, continue to ask for monthly tickets~~
