The First Empress - Chapter 224

Chapter 224 Heartbeat Pain-2

Huiqi helped Linglong up and said, “You should rest well. I will handle this matter properly. Yu Lai … I will also bury her properly. You can rest assured.”

How could Linglong be at ease? At this moment, Huiqi stood up and was about to leave. Linglong suddenly reached out and grabbed Huiqi’s wide-robed sleeve. Huiqi looked back sympathetically at Linglong’s cold eyes and asked, “What … did you see just now?” Linglong didn’t see anything, but she didn’t believe that Qin’er and Ah Ao didn’t see anything either. Seeing that Huiqi was about to leave, she hurriedly retained Huiqi.

Linglong’s face was as cold as a knife. There was a hint of killing intent in it. Her eyes were red from the burning rage. Huiqi looked at the bloodstained eyes and couldn’t help but give way. He said, “Tell me what exactly you saw.”

Linglong looked at Qin’er and Ah Ao and said, “They were diverted. They must have seen something, Your Majesty …”

Huiqi turned around and looked like a pine tree or a huge rock in the abyss. He had an inexplicable coldness. He emitted an aura of a king that shook the world. He waved his hand and said, “Qin’er, Ah Xue, what exactly happened to you? Could it be that you didn’t feel anything at all?”

Ah Xue took a step forward, “servant heard the sound of the window and hurriedly walked out. Servant clearly saw a purple-clothed nanny in front of him. She had a very clear expression on her face. Servant hurriedly chased after her. Who would have thought …” Ah Gun glanced at Qin’er. Qin’er hurriedly kowtowed. She looked a little like Linglong. After kowtowing heavily, she said, “Your Majesty, please make the decision for your Highness and Princess Yu Lai.”

Huiqi said coldly, “You must have seen something. Tell me.”

Qin’er raised her eyes and said, “This servant was knocked unconscious, but before this servant fainted, she saw that nanny. She looked a little like Nanny Lu from Concubine De Palace …”

“Can you see clearly?” Huiqi asked sternly. Hearing that Concubine De was interfering, Huiqi’s eyes suddenly had an uncontrollable anger. Huiqi looked at Qin’er with burning eyes. Qin’er nodded and said, “servant did not see very clearly. In fact, it is not difficult to investigate. All you need to do is to properly ask the palace people in He Palace.”

Huiqi pursed his lips. He waved his hand, Qin’er saw that Huiqi seemed unwilling to pursue the matter, ‘”Your Majesty …” Linglong looked at Qin’er and nodded, “You should leave first. You’ve said enough. This palace will not blame you. They came prepared, and their arms can’t wring their thighs. Naturally, you can’t contend with them. This palace will not blame you.”

The tears in Qin’er’s eyes immediately fell.

Just as Linglong was about to speak, Xiao Zhuozi immediately knelt on the ground. “Your Highness, this servant also saw a shadow. It seems to be Granny Lu from Concubine De’s side.”

The corners of Linglong’s lips were tense as she looked at the Emperor and said, “Did the Emperor hear that?”

Huiqi looked over and said, “I heard you.” Only then did Linglong take out a golden hairpin from her sleeve. Linglong said, “This golden hairpin was picked up by this concubine in the corridor in front of me. I was wondering why there was an inscription ‘Mu’ on it. Now, there is nothing else I need to think about. This concubine seems to have solid evidence. I wonder if the Emperor can immediately capture this Nanny Lu and properly interrogate her.”

Huiqi’s expression changed slightly. She said, “No, even if you touch Concubine De now, you won’t be able to completely injure Concubine De. Concubine De’s father, Royal Teacher Mu, has already recruited 150,000 to 160,000 troops. If you want to invade the capital, it must be like breaking the bamboo. I have my own misgivings,” Linglong suddenly said. “Your Majesty, then, just let it go. Did Princess Yu Lai die in vain?” Linglong’s questioning tone was filled with bitterness and unnecessary sorrow. Huiqi looked at Linglong’s sorrowful face. He couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed. “it ‘s not that you don’ t do it, If you want to kill a fish, The first thing to do is to capture it, Next, clean up the fish’s scales and belly, Only by placing it in that oil pot again can we maintain long-term peace. If I punish Concubine De now, Royal Teacher Mu will definitely avenge the woman. At that time, the festival will not be a matter of you and me. I’m afraid there will be problems in the world. I don’t want to let my people … ”

“Your Majesty, did Princess Yu Lai die in vain?”

Huiqi raised his dragon eyes slightly and looked at Linglong’s cold face. “Naturally, you will not die in vain. Remember what I said at all times. I will make good plans. Not only will I eradicate Concubine De, even I, Royal Teacher Mu, will not let you off lightly. You can rest assured.”

Linglong blinked her eyes and said, “Then, I’m relieved.”

Huiqi turned around and said, ‘”Look at you. After all these things, you are a lot more haggard.” Linglong thought of Li Chongyuan’s loss of her son and immediately became depressed. He immediately smiled and said, “Your Majesty, things have already happened. Even if I cry till night, it will not work. The enemy is still unharmed. It is better for me to take revenge on you one day earlier. Your Majesty, don’t think that I will be defeated. Don’t worry, Your Majesty.”

Hui Qilian nodded his head and said, “That’s good. I can’t see those people who can’t withstand the blow. Now that things have happened, we can only do this. We can’t act rashly or act blindly. I will make decisions for you and your son. You can rest assured.”

Hearing this, Linglong broke into tears and smiled. “Your Majesty, I will definitely help you get rid of the evil emperor as soon as possible. It’s good that your Majesty is at ease. I will be in the study room tomorrow morning.” Huiqi looked at Linglong and said, “I’m afraid it’s not good for your health if you work so hard. You need a good rest. Don’t be tired like this, and don’t cry.” Huiqi wiped away the last tear from the corner of Linglong’s eyes. Linglong said sadly, “This concubine naturally will not be depressed. This concubine will be fine tomorrow. This concubine will send the Emperor away.” As he spoke, he stood up. Huiqi pressed down on Linglong and said, “Sit down. I will arrange things.”

Huiqi left.

Linglong then said to Ah Ao, “What did you pay attention to just now? Tell me now, and I’ll listen here.” Ah Wen nodded and said, “Well, let’s invite Imperial Physician Zhang over again.” Linglong nodded her head. After a while, Imperial Physician Zhang was pushed in by Ah Xuan with her sword against her throat. Linglong watched the old man fall in front of her with indifference. Imperial Physician Zhang was sweating profusely, but she could not make a sound.

Linglong’s evil and beautiful face held a strange and strange smile. She said indifferently, “Imperial Physician Zhang, what exactly did you discover just now? Tell me, this palace has already seen what you saw.”

Imperial Physician Zhang looked around. “Your Highness, This is the little princess’ clothes, This lowly subject is afraid that his medical skills are not high and that he is mistaken, “I’ve already tried using the items on my clothes. It’s a faint incense … and the dosage is large enough to kill a person. I heard it from the little princess again. The little princess has already hurt her lungs, and her hair is a little more silver. Haven’t the Empress ever been suspicious?”

Hearing this, Linglong exerted a little strength on her hand and tightly gripped a corner of the table. Looking at the eyes of Imperial Physician Zhang, she also had a sense of elegance. She asked, “Since you already saw it, why didn’t you say it earlier?”

Imperial Physician Zhang said coldly, “If you say this, you will die. If you don’t say it, you will die. This lowly official has already put aside your life and death. What else is there? As for why you didn’t say it just now, it was because there were so many people just now. If you slowly smoothed it down, I’m afraid …”

“Is there a problem with Pei Minghai?” Linglong couldn’t help but reveal a bitter smile. She didn’t expect that Pei Minghai had a problem. Furthermore, the problem was so serious. Didn’t she become blind and be tricked for so long?

‘”You are very good at things.” Linglong took the child’s clothes from Imperial Physician Zhang’s hand and looked at them. She then sent the remaining medicinal liquid from the bowl over and said, “Take a look at what’s inside this one.”

Imperial Physician Zhang looked at the medicinal juice inside, used his fingers to stick a little and then put it into his mouth to taste. Linglong was shocked. Imperial Physician Zhang only sneered and said, “It’s just brown sugar.”

Linglong was puzzled-“Brown sugar?”

Imperial Physician Zhang’s aged face was filled with an indifferent smile. “Does Your Highness know how to suppress food? If you use rosy incense and brown sugar, it will burn within five days. Your Highness does not need to be suspicious.” Linglong nodded. “According to what you said, there are many other things that cause the princess to die prematurely apart from her congenital deficiency. Could it be?” Linglong waved her hand, Qin’er had already brought over the tonic prescribed a few days ago. Imperial Physician Zhang also reached out and drank some of it. After a long time, he said, “Why didn’t Your Highness give it a try? If she fed it to the fish, they would all die in less than an hour.”

“This?” Linglong said, “I’ve tried it before. There’s nothing unusual about it. However, I vomited a little when I took it for the first time. In the future, I will also taste it for three to five hours. There’s nothing unusual about it. Do you mean there’s something wrong with this medicine?”

Imperial Physician Zhang looked at Linglong and said, “Your Highness, please show me the armor in your hand.”

Linglong took off the armor on her little finger and gave it to the imperial physician. Imperial physician Zhang looked at it and pointed at the diamond on the armor and said, “Your Highness, what is this?”

“Diamond–”

“Yes, what else does Your Highness know?”

Linglong did not know what was unusual about this diamond. It was just that it was relatively hard. “Diamond is the hardest among stones, but there are things that can shatter diamonds. Diamond powder is the most powerful poison,” said Zhang Taiyi. “You can’t even use anything to check it out. Drinking it into your lower abdomen won’t kill you at all. The first time you drink it, it’s just a slight spectrograph. Then, every time you use it, it will accumulate a little bit. It won’t take more than three to five months for your stomach to digest it. Naturally, you will vomit and diarrhea.” Hearing this, Linglong continued to ponder and said, “Who else is in this medicine?” Imperial Physician Zhang looked at the medicinal liquid and said, “One is enough.”

Yeah, just one poison is enough. Do you need more? Linglong said, “You said it all. In order to protect your safety, this palace will let you wait for orders from this palace.” Imperial Physician Zhang did not expect that today would be a day of dying for life. He naturally smiled happily and knelt down, “Your Highness has a kind heart. I will definitely do my best to repay your Highness. Your Highness can rest assured.”

Linglong nodded slightly and said, “Don’t worry, this palace.”

‘”Ah Mo–” Ling Long called out. Ah Mo walked in front of Ling Long and said, “You heard me. We can’t let anyone off lightly. However, there are still some things that you need to investigate carefully. For example, did this golden hairpin accidentally land on the ground or did it deliberately leave behind a clue?” Linglong threw the golden hairpin in her sleeve over and Ah Wen took it.

“Qin’er-”

Qin ‘Er walked over in three or two steps. Linglong looked at the scar on Qin’ Er’s head and said, “Don’t commit suicide in the future. This palace has never blamed you. This palace was originally like this in the harem. This palace hopes that you can understand one thing.” Linglong turned her eyes and said, “If you don’t offend me, I won’t offend you. If you offend me, you will definitely repay me a thousand times.” Qin’er nodded heavily.
