Chapter 47 Dependency
Zhang Sheng silently stared at the strange young man in front of him.

He is the commander in front of the palace. This young man is just a dude with a vain name. Why does he feel condescending instead?
It is undeniable that this face is as bright as the moon, noble and cold, it is indeed a good face that can please the little lady, no wonder Princess Huaxi loves it quite a lot.

However, being too sharp and arrogant, he will eventually suffer from this point.

"Li Yuhou alone can't defeat the Forbidden Army in the Palace," Zhang Sheng sneered, "Take it down!"

"Your Majesty is here—"

The palace servants sang loudly, and everyone in the bedroom was shocked.Zhang Sheng turned his head stiffly, and saw Emperor Yong who was going to get the medicine go and come back, looking at him expressionlessly.

Several imperial physicians rushed over, helped the Queen Mother up one by one, and re-felt her pulse.

Emperor Yong's voice was cold: "Zhang Sheng, what are you doing?"

"The Empress Dowager drank the medicine brought by Princess Huaxi, and fell into a coma again. I'm afraid that there is something wrong with the medicine..."

"The princess was brought up by me and the queen mother, what reason does she have to harm the queen mother?" Emperor Yong had already watched the whole process, seeing that Zhang Sheng was still sophistrying, his eyes were full of disappointment, "Take it away!"

The imperial guards picked up Zhang Sheng from left to right. Zhang Sheng, the commander in front of the palace who had been aggressive before, now had dull eyes and muttered to himself: "Your Majesty, I am loyal to you, why do you treat me like this... ..."

Shu Yao had no idea what was going on, and said incoherently, "Uncle, that medicine..."

She blamed herself endlessly.She didn't expect that there would be problems with the medicine, and that dream came true. Zhang Sheng not only harmed her, but also her grandmother?
"I know," Emperor Yong sighed, "young, come to me."

Looking at the strict guards on both sides, Shu Yao showed hesitation, and Li Mingji next to him put away his long sword and comforted in a low voice: "The princess is not afraid, I am here."

The voice was like a gentle spring breeze, gently brushing over Shu Yao's heart.

The imperial physicians have pulled up the gauze curtain and are doing acupuncture for the queen mother.The queen mother closed her breath and concentrated, suddenly spit out a mouthful of black blood, followed by a black concoction.

The imperial physician who performed the acupuncture first wiped his sweat, and said in a hoarse voice: "Your Majesty, Princess, I have already forced out the medicinal juice from the Empress Dowager's body, and the Empress Dowager is not in danger for her life."

"It's hard work," Emperor Yong nodded lightly, his eyes fell on Shu Yao, and then he became a little gentle, "I have long suspected that there is something wrong with Zhang Sheng. This is my negligence. My dear, it is not your fault. I will accompany you all night Queen Mother, it's late at night, Li Yuhou, take the princess back to the palace to rest."

Li Mingji lowered his eyebrows and cupped his hands: "Observe the order."

Shu Yao turned her head three times a step at a time, looked worriedly at the Empress Dowager lying on the bed several times, saw that Emperor Yong's gaze was steady, and then felt a little relieved, and left Yanshou Palace with Li Mingji.

Emperor Yong looked thoughtfully at Li Mingji's leaving back with deep eyes.

After being reminded by Li Mingji of the wild wolf sighting in Shangyang Mountain earlier, Emperor Yong sent another group of henchmen to thoroughly investigate the fence of Shangyang Mountain.They found that the fence was man-made, and it was obvious that someone was doing something secretly. Not long ago, Zhang Sheng went out of the city to run errands and went to the mountains on the other side of Shangyang Mountain.

Emperor Yong couldn't figure out what Zhang Sheng wanted to do, but when he got along with Zhang Sheng, he kept his mind on it.Especially tonight when the Empress Dowager suddenly fell ill, Zhang Sheng stayed with him in the Yanshou Palace and repeatedly hinted that he "does everything by himself", so Emperor Yong obeyed his wishes and pretended to follow the imperial physician to make medicine, but in fact he was standing not far away and witnessed The whole farce.

It was Shu Yao first, and then the Empress Dowager... Emperor Yong didn't have many concubines, and the harem was very clean, and there were few intrigues. He really couldn't understand, why did Zhang Sheng choose his closest people to attack?

Zhang Sheng has been his confidant for many years. When did this strange heart start, and how many hands and feet did he move? If things continue...

Thinking of this, Emperor Yong's face was very serious and resolute, his complexion was slightly dark, and Li Mingji's face appeared in his mind.

This son is young, but his intuition is astonishingly sharp. What purpose does he have when he approaches Shu Yao?
……

Huaxi Palace.

Beside the hot spring pool, Shu Yao was lying on the steps, eyes half closed, letting Chunrui and pine needles help her bathe.

She was too sleepy to keep her eyes open for a long time, but there were too many changes tonight, her nerves were always tense, and she dared not relax at all.

The recent incidents one after another disturbed Shu Yao's mind, and even the hot spring water could not wash away her depression.

"Go out, I want to be alone for a while."

Songzhen and Chunrui nodded, seeing the little princess drowsy, they couldn't help reminding: "Princess, come out early and sleep on the bed."

Shu Yao muttered vaguely.After the two left the hot spring pool, she turned over and fell asleep.

She, who hadn't dreamed for a long time, returned to the golden house in her dream.

Using "golden house" to describe this bedroom is definitely not an exaggeration.The carved wooden bed inlaid with gilt, all kinds of precious ornaments, even the bowls and chopsticks are made of gold and silver.How many priceless treasures were randomly placed on the display shelves, and Shu Yao's eyes were filled with golden light.

However, she really didn't have the heart to appreciate the furnishings in this room, because it was too painful.

It's a feeling of wanting to vomit but not being able to vomit, foreign objects are stuck in the throat, and even swallowing becomes difficult.She watched as she stretched out her hand with difficulty, broke off a piece of pastry and stuffed it into her mouth, before making the movement of swallowing, she immediately felt retching, Shu Yao lay on the bedside and coughed hard, hot tears flowed down cheek.

Since Shu Yao was a child, when did she experience such hardship?But her eye sockets were also swollen from crying, and her tears were all drained, but she still couldn't relieve the pain on her body.

She struggled, almost exhausted, trying to grab the name that brought her a sense of security in her mind:

"Li Mingji... Li Mingji!"

A pair of warm hands supported her.

Like a drowning person grabbing a driftwood, Shu Yao climbed tightly onto the tall and slender young body, crying in a tender voice, "Li Mingji save me..."

"It's okay, princess," Li Mingji's voice became clearer and hoarse, "I'm here."

He took off his coat and covered the little princess's almost naked body.The little princess in his arms was still crying hard, with his head buried in his chest, sniffing like a frightened rabbit.

Li Mingji frowned slightly, a little surprised in his heart, does the little princess often have nightmares?It was unprecedented in the previous life.The little princess has a big heart, even if he was taken away by him, she still slept soundly, what's going on now?
Could it be that his rebirth and change of life will bring about other effects, so that it will affect the little princess?

Shu Yao had cried enough, but she still clung to Li Mingji's arms and refused to let go.Huaxi Palace is too big, only Li Mingji's embrace can give her warmth.

She no longer feels shy when she is a stranger once and acquainted with her second time. Li Mingji is such a gentleman, he will definitely not do anything to her.

After hugging for a long time, Shu Yao reluctantly let go, but still refused to let Li Mingji leave: "The county chief changes clothes, you are not allowed to leave, just wait here."

Li Mingji smiled lightly: "Okay."

He took the initiative to turn his back and didn't look at Shu Yao again, like a gentleman who restrains himself and keeps good manners.

Shu Yao picked up her pajamas and changed into them, a picture flashed in her mind.

Wait, she remembered where she had seen that potted flower!

In her bedroom in the dream, there was also such a pot of blue-purple cold spring flowers!
