In the princess mansion, after Shu Yao washed up, she lay on the familiar pear wood canopy bed and suffered from insomnia again.

Although she didn't sleep well every day when she came back from Yangzhou, she thought that this situation would improve when she returned to the mansion, but her sleep condition was even worse.

Thinking about it carefully, the last time it was this serious was last summer when I had nightmares every night.Afterwards, with Li Mingji by her side, her sleeping condition gradually improved, and she almost forgot what it was like not being able to fall asleep with her eyes open.

After thinking again and again, Shu Yao lifted the quilt and sat up from the bed.

Chunrui and Songzhen, who were guarding the door, heard the movement, opened the door and came in, "Princess, what's wrong?"

"Get ready for the chariot, I'm going to Liluoyuan."

Isn't that where Guard Li lives?

Naturally, she could go wherever she wanted to go to the princess's mansion, Songzhen and the others had no choice but to order someone to prepare a walking chariot and send Shu Yao to Liluoyuan.

Today's Liluoyuan is very different from before.It has been renovated inside and out, changing the desolation and decay, and adding a bit of elegance.

Arriving at Li Mingji's room, lying on the bed where Li Mingji had slept, Shu Yao embraced the quilt that was stained with his breath, and fell asleep contentedly.

……

The Spring River Huayue Tower at night is more lively than the monthly market in Daxiangguo Temple.

A carriage stopped at the back door of Huayue Tower in Chunjiang. Yin Fu, who had changed into casual clothes, got out of the carriage first and handed the letter to the guard at the gate. Not long after, someone hurried downstairs and said in a low voice, "Your Excellency, please follow me."

If Shu Yao was here, he would definitely recognize that this was the shopkeeper of Chunjiang Huayuelou who gave her hairpins and cats.

Emperor Yong then got off the carriage.

It had been a long time since he had a private visit with a micro-service, but now that he saw it, he realized that the Chunjiang Huayue Building had become the busiest place in the capital.The restaurant, which was once on the verge of closing, was brought back to life under the management of Li Mingji, and became a symbol of the capital, which is very difficult to see anywhere.

Emperor Yong couldn't help thinking that if Li Mingji had not been brought back to the palace by Shu Yao, but had followed the family, he might not have won the power struggle.

"My lord."

Walking into the private room, the shopkeeper saluted Emperor Yong respectfully.Although Li Mingji did not clearly state the identity of Emperor Yong, with such a posture and style, his identity is not difficult to guess.However, Emperor Yong didn't take the initiative to speak out, and the shopkeeper also pretended to be stupid, secretly thinking that Dayong's emperor is indeed not ordinary.

He beckoned, and the two men brought out a woman in her forties.The woman was wrapped in a headscarf and lowered her eyes. After seeing Emperor Yong, she said "woo hoo" a few times.

The man put the pen and paper in front of the woman, and the shopkeeper explained: "She can't speak, but she can read some words. You can just ask questions and let her answer on paper."

Emperor Yong said, "Why is your voice hoarse?"

The woman lowered her eyes, her eyes suddenly turned red, and she wrote on the paper with trembling hands: 【Ill. 】

"You look like an ordinary peasant woman, but you can write well. Who taught you?"

The woman paused, thought for a moment, and wrote slowly: [The family runs a medical center, and since childhood, I have been seeing doctors with my parents and writing prescriptions.Later, he was selected into the imperial palace, entered the Pharmacy Bureau, and was taught by others. 】

It is no different from what Li Mingji said in his letter.

Emperor Yong asked again: "When did you leave the palace?"

[17 years ago, I followed Princess Yongning into Qin Yanghou's mansion to recuperate her body, and then left the mansion due to illness and returned to her hometown in Yangzhou. 】

"What disease is so fierce that it makes you hoarse?"

The woman bit her lips tightly, looked at Emperor Yong, finally made up her mind, and slowly wrote down on the paper: [It is poison. 】

[I served the eldest princess closely with two fellow villagers.After the death of the eldest princess, a fellow villager died of illness, and another fellow villager and I were expelled from the Marquis Mansion. We were in danger halfway and were poisoned by an adulterer.My fellow villager was murdered, I found herbal medicine, and I was lucky enough to save my life. 】

[After returning to Yangzhou, the Chinese medicine clinic at home was burned down, and no one in the family survived.The villagers sympathized with my experience and let me stay in their home to work. 】

These things have been buried deep in her heart for more than ten years. She knows that the death of the whole family is related to her, but she is afraid of being criticized, so she has never dared to tell outsiders.Until a few days ago, someone found her.

"If you have doubts, why don't you report to the authorities?"

The woman did not answer the question in the first half of the sentence, but wrote: [Don’t dare. 】

There is no need to guess who made the move, except for the royal relatives, who else has such great ability?But she can't afford it.

As words were written on the paper, Emperor Yong's face became more and more gloomy, "I ask you, why did they kill you so far?"

He no longer concealed his identity, and a trace of trance flashed across the woman's eyes.Unconsciously stroking the pharynx that had long been silent, she clenched the pen tightly: 【I know a secret. 】

[The eldest princess was pregnant when she died. 】

Ridiculous, ridiculous!
Everyone knew that Princess Yongning was in poor health, and after giving birth to Shu Yao, she was already at the end of her strength, half of her life was hanging by drugs.Why is she pregnant again?
I am afraid that only Qin Yanghou knows about this matter.

Seeing that Emperor Yong remained silent for a long time, the woman took up a pen and dipped in ink, and wrote down word by word: [Qin Yanghou and Mrs. Pan harmed my whole family, slaves dare to be angry but dare not speak, willing to guarantee with their lives, every word is true , I beg Your Majesty to enlighten me! 】

……

Shu Yao hasn't had those bizarre dreams for a long time.

In this dream, there were no scenes that made people blush and heartbeat, Shu Yao clearly saw those scenes.

It was her wedding with Xie Yanzhou.

His Majesty's most beloved princess married the prosperous son of the Xie family. With red makeup for ten miles, the capital was full of joy. The dowry was carried along the imperial street into Suzaku Gate like flowing water, and then into the imperial city.

In the dream, she was wearing a red wedding dress, sitting in a sedan chair, waiting boredly for the process to end.Xie Yanzhou was also dressed in a red robe, riding a tall horse at the front of the team, full of vigor.

Worshiping heaven and earth, worshiping high hall, husband and wife worshiping each other, Emperor Yong personally sent blessings to the couple.A court official suddenly stood up, pointed at Shu Yao and yelled at her for bewitching the king's heart and disrupting the government, and then slammed his head against the pillar of the palace to death.

The crowd was in an uproar.

Immediately afterwards, the aristocratic officials headed by Xie Hong and Zheng Lian quickly took control of the wedding scene, and Emperor Yong and a group of concubines and maidservants were imprisoned.When the imperial palace was in chaos, Zhang Sheng opened the gate of the imperial city and led an army into the imperial city.

The rattling sound of the wheelchair broke into the ears, and the leader of the army sat in the wheelchair, commanding the surrounding subordinates calmly, and soon took control of the palace.The aristocratic family fled in a hurry, and Emperor Yong, the empress, and the prince were captured.Xie Yanzhou asked Shu Yao to wait on the spot, but until Shu Yao was locked up, Xie Yanzhou didn't turn around.

The picture in the dream is getting farther and farther away, flashing before the eyes like a revolving lantern.Shu Yao grabbed the quilt tightly and opened her eyes, but what she was thinking about was the general leading the troops.
