Second marriage to the regent

"Master, I just learned that something happened in the Jing'an Hou Mansion." Ye Tong came behind Jing Ge.

Jing Ge looked at the people coming and going outside the inn with a leisurely expression. It was extremely lively, and he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

After hearing about the insignificant things, he acted like it was none of his business and said, "What does the incident in Jing'an Marquis' Mansion have to do with this prince?"

Ye Tong didn't think so. He felt that his master would be very interested in this matter and said: "The Marquis of Jing'an took his family out to relax today. As a result, his wife was poisoned and fell into a coma. Even the concubine's whereabouts are unknown. He was the only one unscathed. My subordinates are wondering if this was planned by him."

He believed that Tang Zhili had a vicious mind and was by no means a kind person.

"You mean, the daughter-in-law of Duke An Guo's mansion was poisoned?" Jing Ge became a little interested.

Ye Tong: "Exactly."

"Haha. This Tianzhao is really lively. Things happen one after another. It's really admirable that Emperor Tianzhao can be so calm." Jing Ge said sarcastically.

Ye Tong: "Given the relationship between the Duke of An and the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother must have known about this matter and will definitely not let Marquis Jing'an off easily."

Jing Ge turned the tea cup in his hand, carefully observed its workmanship, and said disgustedly: "Why is there such a beautiful tea cup with cracks on the mouth?"

After saying that, he threw the tea cup behind him casually. The tea spilled all over the floor and the quilt rolled to the ground.

Ye Tong understood that it was time to meet Ye Zhou.

This matter was indeed as Ye Tong expected, and it quickly spread to every corner of the palace.

Changle Palace

Li Nanyu was relaxing with his mother-in-law when a young eunuch suddenly ran in in a panic.

"Your Majesty, something happened!" The little eunuch's reckless behavior annoyed the maid next to the imperial concubine.

"Fu Lai, what happened?" Caiyue asked.

The little eunuch trembled and said: "The Queen Mother learned that the Marquis Su of Jingan was poisoned and unconscious, and she has left the palace!"

"What did you say?!" Li Nanyu was so frightened that she stood up. The chess bowl fell out of her hands and fell to the ground, with the chess pieces scattered all over the floor.

She felt that she heard wrongly and asked again: "Are you saying that Xi'er has been poisoned?"

She would rather she heard wrongly. What happened to the people who were fine in the morning?
"Yes. I heard that Marquis Jing'an went out with his family. As a result, Su was poisoned and fell into coma. The whereabouts of his concubine Bai is unknown." Fulai came one by one.

Li Nanyu said goodbye: "Mother and concubine, my dear, I have to say goodbye first!"

The imperial concubine knew that her daughter was worried about Su Junxi, so she didn't stop her.

"Pass this imperial edict to take some of the Ganoderma lucidum from the palace and send it to Duke Anguo's Mansion!" the imperial concubine ordered.

Fulai immediately obeyed: "I understand!"

Fulai took the things and chased Li Nanyu all the way, catching up with her the moment she stepped into An Guogong's mansion.

"Princess! Wait for me, slave!" Fulai waved his fly whisk and chased after him desperately.

Since he was from the palace and had a good relationship with Su Junxi, the guards at the door did not stop him.

Li Nanyu ran all the way to Su Junxi's boudoir and saw that it was crowded with people inside and outside. When she walked into the room, she saw An Guogong and others with ugly faces waiting for the imperial doctor's answer.

The imperial physician's forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and his body was shaking uncontrollably. Fortunately, the speed at which the toxin spread was controlled.

"How is Xi'er?" Li Nanyu asked anxiously when she saw that the imperial doctor withdrew his hand.

The imperial doctor squeezed out a cold sweat and said: "Fifth Princess, don't worry, Madam's poison will not spread anymore, but the antidote to this poison may not be found in this palace."

Duke An Guo said angrily: "No matter how high the price, you must find me for me! Nothing will happen to Xi'er!"

"This poison is extremely poisonous. The toxin has almost spread all over the body. If the antidote cannot be found within two hours, even gods coming down to earth will not be able to help." The imperial doctor has never seen such a difficult thing.With tears in her eyes, Su Wenling supported Mrs. Anguo, who had already cried dumbly, and said, "What kind of poison is it, and why can't the antidote be found in the palace?"

"One of the main agents of this poison has only been seen in books, but never seen in real form."

Just when everyone didn't know what to do, a man walked in and handed a bottle of medicine to Su Buyue.

"My prince sent this to me. It can save Miss Su's life." Li Yi explained.

Su Buyue looked at the medicine bottle in her hand and looked at Li Yi dubiously. He was somewhat impressed.

Not to mention Li Nanyu's familiarity with Li Yi, she still trusted Li Junyi. She grabbed the medicine bottle and poured out the pills for Su Junxi to take.

Duke An Guo looked at Li Nanyu's actions with a worried expression and asked her, "Can the princess trust this person?"

Li Nanyu nodded and said, "He is someone close to the emperor's uncle, so Mr. An Guo can rest assured."

Everyone felt relieved after seeing that Su Junxi's condition improved somewhat after taking the antidote.

Seeing that Li Yi was about to leave, Duke An Guo asked quickly: "Why does the prince want to save my daughter?"

Li Yi turned around and said, "Your Majesty only told me to deliver the medicine, and didn't know anything else. Take your leave."

Duke An Guo didn't ask any more questions, just stood there quietly looking at Su Junxi lying on the bed, and then silently turned around and entered the palace.

Imperial study room

"Have you thought about it?" The emperor put down the memorial and looked at An Guogong with a serious face.

Duke An Guo bowed and said: "My little girl suffered a lot of injustice in the Jing'an Marquis Mansion, and now her life is on the line. I don't want to see her continue to suffer this kind of pain. Even if she will be laughed at by the world in the future, I only hope that she can be safe."

Seeing Duke An Guo's face full of sincerity and his eyes full of love for Su Junxi, he ordered: "Come here! Draw up the decree!"

The emperor had someone write an imperial edict and give it to An Guogong, and once again warned: "An Guogong needs to think about this matter again and again before making a decision!"

Duke An Guo nodded: "Old minister, I understand, long live my emperor!"

After Duke An Guo left, Feng De said worriedly: "Your Majesty, this Duke An Guo has taken the imperial edict, and this Marquis of Jing'an..."

Feng De was worried about whether the emperor would win over Tang Zhili after the two families were at loggerheads.

Duke An Guo has always had a good relationship with the Queen Mother. Now that she learned that Su Junxi was poisoned, the Queen Mother even deigned to go. It can be imagined how much the Queen Mother valued them.

After hearing this, the emperor also began to worry, and sighed: "The regent generously gave the antidote to An Guo Gong. Isn't this a clear sign to An Guo Gong? If I don't agree to this, An Guo Gong will be won over by the regent. In the past, my throne will no longer be secure!"

He had always been wary of Li Junyi, and this time he blatantly tested An Guogong, obviously not taking him seriously as an emperor.

Before Li Kun also establishes the crown princess, nothing more can go wrong.

"Inform the Crown Prince and let him decide on the Crown Princess as soon as possible!"

Now he doesn't care whether the princess is He Ning or not. As long as she can assist Li Kunyi, the most important thing is to help him secure the throne.

"I will invite the prince to come here." After Feng De exited the imperial study, he did not leave the palace to see Li Kunyi, but turned back to Yongning Palace.

He told the queen everything, and the queen asked Xiu Niang to invite He Ning.

"Ms. Xiu, go and invite Princess He Ning and tell her that I have something to discuss with her."

"Yes, ma'am."

Xiu Niang came to the wing, but she was empty. He Ning left the wing without knowing when and disappeared. (End of chapter)
