After all, she was the mother of the country, so Emperor Ming Yan could not do anything too excessive and asked her to come in.
As soon as Empress Su entered the room, she bowed deeply and said, "Your Majesty, Ti'er is my only son. I hope Your Majesty will not blame me too much for the sake of our blood relationship... If there is any guilt, I am willing to bear it on his behalf."
Emperor Ming Yan hated this trick the most.
He didn't say anything when he had something to say, but just took this attitude and froze him with words. Is he a tyrant? Could he kill his own son?
Come to think of it, Huo Yi at the beginning also touched this sore spot of his.
Emperor Mingyan did not call out, but said coldly: "Then do you know what he did? Blood relationship? Haha... If I had not considered blood relationship, how could I just confine him to house arrest!"
When Empress Su heard this tone, she panicked: "Although Ti'er is young and confused, he has a pure heart... I wonder if the emperor has verified what Ti'er has done wrong?"
Emperor Ming Yan sneered slightly.
It seems that Queen Su knew what she had done to her son, and she was testing how much he knew!
He raised his hand to signal Gu Jiuxing to speak. Gu Jiuxing had a bitter face and could only tell Queen Su: "Replying to the Queen, the Third Prince sent nearly a hundred shadow guards to Qinzhou to hunt down County Lord Enfu. The county lord fell into the river and disappeared. There has been no news since then."
...
...
Queen Su's expression changed slightly.
She didn't think that killing a common county lady was a big deal, she just hated that the Third Prince chose to do it at this critical moment.
Queen Su cried, "There must be some misunderstanding. Ti'er has never been to Qinzhou. Why would she chase after a stranger..."
"Enough!" Emperor Ming Yan shouted.
They are truly mother and son, their first reaction is to get involved with the prince!
Emperor Mingyan said coldly: "Indeed, he doesn't know Enfu County Lady, but he won't let go even someone he doesn't know! You still dare to plead for that rebellious son? Do you know why I am so angry?"
He stared at her coldly, "Not only because Enfu County Lady offered the method of vaccination, but also because she is now making medicine to treat rheumatism. If I remember correctly, Duke Weiguo also suffered from rheumatism last year, right?"
Duke Weiguo is Empress Su's father, and the third prince's maternal grandfather.
Empress Su's expression changed immediately: "Your Majesty!"
Emperor Mingyan said coldly: "Because of the stupid things he did, Tang Shiyue has not been found yet! If anything happens to her, who can cure her, Prince An or Duke Wei? Queen, tell me, who can cure her?"
Empress Su's legs were so weak that she could hardly stand. She murmured, "Your Majesty, Ti'er doesn't know..."
Emperor Ming Yan looked at her coldly. Empress Su only said half a sentence and could not continue.
Knowing or not knowing is not important at all.
This is the Enfu County Lord who offered the method of vaccination! This is the Enfu County Lord who can save the lives of thousands of people! If there is a medicine in the world that can cure rheumatism, then she is the most likely person to make this medicine!
It would be fine if she came back alive, but if she really died... the Third Prince would forever bear the guilt of indirectly causing the death of his own grandfather!
After Empress Su left, Emperor Ming Yan was still a little angry. It was already the second day, and there was still no news from Tang Shiyue!
Emperor Mingyan murmured, "Isn't she Lady Fu?"
Gu Jiuxing thought to himself that no matter how lucky he was, he couldn't stand up to hundreds of shadow guards! With arrows and knives, hundreds of masters attacked one person, but he was not chopped into pieces on the spot, but just disappeared. This was already very strange, okay!
At this moment, the subordinate reported: "Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine had a nightmare last night and called the imperial physician."
"Another nightmare?" Emperor Ming Yan stood up hastily: "I'll go take a look."
Among emperors, Emperor Ming Yan was considered a romantic man.
The other women in the palace, including the two queens before and after, were just there for the sake of offspring, but since the Imperial Noble Consort married into the palace, her favor has not diminished in the past twenty years, from her residence to the present.
When they arrived at Yonghe Palace, Doctor Zhou greeted him and then said in a serious tone, "It's similar to yesterday's situation. Judging from the pulse, it seems that he has been greatly stimulated. If the amount of tranquilizing soup is increased, it will not be good for his body. It's better to relax."
Emperor Mingyan dismissed the imperial physician and hurried in behind the curtain. The Imperial Concubine was lying on the large pillow, lost in thought. When she saw him come in, tears welled up in her eyes: "Your Majesty!"
"Don't be afraid," Emperor Ming Yan hurried forward and hugged her, "I was busy yesterday, and I didn't want to disturb you, so I stayed in the imperial study. I will definitely come back to accompany you tonight."
"Your Majesty," The Imperial Concubine is nearly forty years old this year, but she still looks extremely beautiful, as if she is in her twenties, especially her eyes, which make people's hearts twist when she sheds tears.
She sobbed and said, "I dreamed of Yue'er again. I dreamed of our Yue'er... She was standing in a large expanse of black water, with several forked roads beside her. She was so confused and at a loss, and was about to go to one side hesitantly. I knew in my heart that that road was wrong, and I would never see her again if I walked on it. I desperately wanted to call Yue'er, I wanted to ask her to come back, but no sound came out..."
Emperor Ming Yan patted her back silently. She sobbed and cried so hard that she couldn't raise her head.
The Imperial Concubine was bright and generous, not a weak person, and it was really heartbreaking to see her crying like this.
Emperor Mingyan said softly: "Don't think too much. It's been so many years... If you miss her so much, won't it make her unable to reincarnate peacefully..."
"No!" The Imperial Concubine said, "I haven't dreamed of Yue'er for many years! The last time was when Sister Min gave birth to Tingyue..."
Emperor Mingyan asked gently, "Do you want to summon Tingyue to the palace to talk?"
The Imperial Concubine did not answer.
The effect of the tranquilizing soup gradually took effect. Her eyes gradually closed. Emperor Ming Yan carefully placed her on the pillow, but she struggled to grab his hand again: "Send someone to check on Yue'er and add some lamp oil to her. My Yue'er must have suffered some kind of torture..."
Seeing that she was talking incoherently, Emperor Ming Yan could not bear to refuse her, so he ordered someone to add some oil to the little princess's eternal lamp.
He stayed for a long time before coming out with his hands behind his back.
Gu Jiuxing had already walked around for several times. When he saw him coming out, he bowed. Emperor Ming Yan asked, "What's the matter?"
"Your Majesty," Gu Jiuxing's voice trembled slightly, "The Third Prince...is suffering from rheumatism."
Emperor Ming Yan looked back in astonishment, suspecting that he had heard it wrongly: "What?"
The eunuchs in the palace are probably the ones in the world who believe in and fear these things the most. Gu Jiuxing's face looked a little strange, and he lowered his head and did not dare to answer.
In fact, wind disease is not uncommon. Emotional frustration, uncontrolled eating and drinking, and excessive indulgence in sex can all induce wind disease. But the third prince is only twenty years old! He is so young, has always been skilled in archery and horse riding, and has a strong body. How could he suddenly suffer from wind disease? ?
This is such a coincidence, so incredible that one can't help but think of "Goddess of Fortune" as the reason.
This is karma! This is karma!

Blackwater River.
Almost all the men on Huo Qijing's side were dispatched.
Afterwards, Jishidiang and the county government all sent people over, and when the villagers found out, almost all of them came as well.
Hundreds of people searched for two days and two nights, but they found nothing after searching for several miles. It was as if Tang Shiyue had disappeared out of thin air, with no one seeing him alive or dead.
As the name of the Black Water River suggests, the water in the entire river is muddy and you can't see clearly what's going on in the river. The river flows down from Langdao Mountain with a fast current, but the river channel is not wide. Where can she drift to?
Qing Weiliao's heart was boiling with anxiety. Before his master passed away, he entrusted his mistress to him. Normally, he could not help in any way. Now, such a thing happened again!
Hu Ge whispered to him, "She is a real lady of fortune. As long as no body is found, it's a good thing!"
Qing Weiliao took a long breath and said, "But what should we do now? How do we find it?"
At this moment, Ren Dong suddenly said from a distance: "Brother, I want to jump down and give it a try."
Qing Wei was startled and rushed over. Ren Dong pointed at the river where Tang Shiyue fell and said, "I'll jump down from where Master's wife is and see what happens."
"No! That's nonsense!" Qing Weiliao said directly: "It's too dangerous!"
Ren Dong glanced at him, said nothing more, and jumped down directly.
Qing Weiliao said anxiously: "Adong!"
He didn't have time to say anything more, and hurriedly ran out on the shore, calling out to Honan: "Hurry up and get the rope!"
But drifting in the river is always faster than drifting on the shore. Qing Weiliao could catch up with Ren Dong by relying on his lightness skills at the beginning, but gradually, they were getting farther and farther away. He could only watch Ren Dong disappear in the torrent.
