Chapter 228

Xueyi's hands trembled slightly, his face became paler like snow, cold sweat oozes from his forehead, Abi beside him couldn't help but feel anxious for Xueyi when he saw Xueyi like this, then Xueyi looked at everyone, and slowly bit out a sentence Words come: "It's the plague!"

bang——

As soon as these two words came out, there was a burst of panic from all over the house!
"Ah—what a—what a—what!"

"This, how can this be good!"

"The plague is contagious, once you catch it, you will die!"

"Yesterday I saw a strange purple sky. I didn't expect it to be such a catastrophe!"

"Shut up all of you—whoever is going to gossip, spread rumors, and cause panic will be treated by the family law!" Seeing that the mansion exploded, Steward Feng raised his airs and scolded the group of panicked servants, but the plague Unusual, how can this be restrained, Feng Butler is naturally shocked and terrified.

"Uncle Feng! Take away both the princess and the concubine!" Shangguan Chonglian put on a cold face, suppressing her astonishment, and the first thing she thought of was Xueyi's safety.

"This—this—" Feng Butler was in a dilemma.

"No, Brother Lian, maybe Grandma didn't get the plague, Grandma just fell ill from grief, didn't she?" Younger Sister Gongsun came out with anxiety and said, "Let me stay and take care of Grandma, Brother Lian, you , you still have something to do in the camp, you should go to the barracks first!"

"Are you doubting Xue Yi's judgment?" Shangguan Chonglian's face was ice-cold, and the wind and clouds were surging.

"No, I, I don't doubt my sister's judgment, I just think that I should stay and take care of grandma, so, let me take care of it, you all leave!" Younger sister Gongsun was completely thinking about the safety of Shangguan Chonglian , what he said was very lame.

Shangguan Chonglian saw what Gongsun Xiaomei was thinking, she shook her hand, gritted her teeth, and calmed down a little bit of anger.

"Don't fight any more." Xue Yi issued a very serious order: "Little sister, Chong Lian, you all go out!"

"Sister, no!"

"No!"

"Princess, you can't do it!"

Gongsun Xiaomei, Shangguan Chonglian, Abi and others shouted in unison.

Xue Yi swept their faces, and said very seriously: "Don't talk about it, maybe it's like my little sister said, maybe my diagnosis is wrong, you all go down first, I am the only one who knows medicine here, so I should be the one to do it." Come take care of the old lady, and then further diagnose the condition!"

"You lied!" Shangguan Zhonglian exposed her lie and grabbed her hand again, "If you were not completely sure, you would not easily say such things that would cause everyone to panic, girl, you don't want to die Well, you don’t want to, but I can’t watch you die, follow me!” Long arms and long legs pulled Xueyi out, Xueyi broke him away, trying to stabilize Shangguan Chonglian. With an impatient temper, he said: "The problem is not as serious as you think, Chong Lian, let me go, if you really want to help me, go to the palace immediately and invite the imperial doctor to come for a consultation. As I expected, this King's Mansion, and even the entire Imperial Capital, will be under martial law!"

The situation was at a stalemate, at this time there was a few gasps on the bed, the old concubine struggled a few times to lift her eyelids, Feng Quan didn't care about anything, and hurried up to put a pillow for the old concubine, the old concubine described it as gray and waxy , It really seems to be a different person from last night. The person who took the medicine of Xueyi last night should see better, but he didn't want to vomit a few times in the early morning, and then he was depressed.

"Child." As soon as he opened his mouth, the old and weak voice made people tremble, "you... don't bother with me, an old woman, it was God who heard my request yesterday and gave me the retribution... maybe From now on, all your disasters will be over cough cough cough."

The old concubine said a word and stopped, with some smiles in her dark eyes, "God let me, a sinner, live for such a long time. It is the greatest and greatest kindness, Lian'er Xueyi and Feng Quan, you all go, whatever If I fend for myself, if I want to implicate any of you again, my old lady will not be at ease even if she goes to the eighteenth floor of hell."

"Ahem." As he spoke, he lay down weakly, lying on the bed and muttering to himself: "It's good that I don't have to worry about Lao Ba anymore. Where is my Lao Ba? It's time for me too. I met the boss. He died so early, how lonely he must be in the ground, and my grandson and the Supreme Emperor. We can meet after all."

----------------------------------
Shangguan Chonglian hurriedly rode into the palace, until noon, a group of imperial physicians came to King Jing's mansion one after another, one after another to diagnose diseases, one after another showing the same panic expression.

No doubt the plague!
Suddenly, haze and panic surrounded the entire King Jing Mansion like an impenetrable net.

A group of imperial physicians in the outer room were arguing over whether to spread the news of the plague or keep it a secret for the time being. At ten o'clock in the evening, the sky was fading away, and General Xue Yi came in with a medicinal soup. Seeing a group of imperial physicians, their expressions were not controversial. If it turns red, it turns pale with shock.

It's not just the imperial physician, there's nothing up and down in the mansion that can't be turned upside down.

Especially Yanxizhai's servants, you push each other, no one dares to approach, even if they can't be ordered, they also look desperate and desperate, as if the whole Yanxizhai is the place where the virus spreads.

Xue Yi and Abi hadn't entered the inner room when they heard Steward Feng's elderly voice shout: "Old madam——"

With this desolate cry, Xue Yi's heart skipped a beat.

"The Grand Concubine—Dead—"

Immediately, people kneeling all over the room screamed the name of the old concubine.

The younger sister Gongsun in the inside stumbled against the door with tears in her eyes, "Sister, grandma—she——"

Xue Yi staggered a few steps, walked into the room with floating steps, and stood in front of the bed. There was an indescribable smell in the room. She pressed her lips hard, and saw that the person on the bed was only half a day old. The scene, ruined by the plague, is not human-like, the gray face is covered with dark spots, wrinkles are stacked, and the temples are pale. The description can even be said to be a little scary.

As if, death enveloped Prince Jing's Mansion with a corrupt atmosphere.

"Old madam. Did you say anything before you died?" Xue Yi spoke lightly and with difficulty.

Steward Feng seemed to have aged a lot, and sat on the ground slumped, "I didn't leave anything behind, I just shouted the name of the lord." When he said that, he tilted his head, stared behind Xueyi in surprise, and exclaimed: " Prince?"

When Xue Yi turned her head, she saw Shangguan Fenglan staring at her with startled eyes, and then at the bed.

"Fenglang." Shangguan Fenglan stood in front of the bed in the future before he could see the old concubine for the last time, looking at the scene, her face was paler than ever before, Xueyi saw his figure swaying, and just Feeling that his high-spirited body was about to collapse, he couldn't help feeling sore in his heart, and supported him: "Feng Lang, please let me know that you are sad, but the situation cannot be neglected at this time. The plague is extraordinary. have to--"

"That's too late."

Shangguan Fenglan interrupted Xue Yi's words first, Xue Yi was startled when she heard the solemn tone in his words, and asked in confusion: "What, what do you mean?"

"Before returning to Prince Jing's Mansion, someone from the Dongcheng Mansion of the Imperial Capital has sent a message to the palace. In a village in Dongcheng, the plague has spread, and dozens of villagers have died within three days." Shangguan Fenglan looked at the dead old lady with sad eyes. Concubine, she gritted her teeth and said, "This time the plague is coming so fast, I'm afraid there will be more than one place. If it is as expected, there will be urgent reports of the plague from other places in the imperial capital, even outside the imperial capital tonight."

Shangguan Fenglan's words were like stirring up a stormy sea.

Another wave of panic climaxed in Fuchu!

---------------------------------

Amidst the noisy and terrified voices in the outer room, Shangguan Fenglan knelt down in front of the bed, performing filial worship and kowtow.

"You can't stay here, Abi, take the concubine back to the palace immediately!" Shangguan Fenglan could only see the shock of losing his mother from his eyes, but he still had the look of a calm emperor in an accident, which is impressive Immediately send Xueyi back to the palace.

Gongsun Xiaomei led two close-fitting servant girls and was brought into the palace together with Xueyi. King Jing's mansion was banned and besieged, and the news of the plague in the imperial capital began to spread.

As soon as the people led by Xueyi entered the other palace, they asked Abi to lead the palace staff to boil water, and washed the group of people who came out of King Jing's mansion with white vinegar inside and out, and then ordered the other palace to follow up with them one by one. Everyone in the harem was bathed and disinfected, and the palace was extensively cleaned. Although Xue Yi tried his best to conceal the truth of the plague, such a big movement still caused a certain amount of panic and uneasiness in the palace, and people panicked overnight!
Xueyi was mourning for the unrepentant death, and a fire of hatred was burning in her heart. At this time, the old concubine passed away due to the plague, and she was worried about Shangguan Fenglan, so she had no appetite and didn't eat anything at night. , took Mo Li for a while, coaxed Mo Li to sleep, and asked the servants in the palace, "Has the lord returned to the palace?"

"If you go back to the princess, the prince has returned to the palace and is in the imperial study."

Xueyi was only accompanied by Abi, and walked along the brick corridor of the palace with a lantern from the dormitory to Shangguan Fenglan's imperial study. As soon as he walked to the window sill at the corner of the imperial study, he heard disputes coming from inside.

Xue Yi turned around and made a shush gesture, stopped in his tracks, and listened quietly at the base of the wall.

"Chong Lian, Dongling is supposed to be owned by your father. Brother Jiuquan must also hope to see you dominate the country, sit on the throne, and achieve a great success, but you have no ambitions. Why don't you let your father see you?" Under the Nine Springs, death will not rest in peace!" The voice belonged to Shangguan Fenglan, and there was a solemn and annoyed look in the cold and majestic words.

Xue Yi didn't know what position Shangguan Fenglan's elder brother held in Shangguan Fenglan's heart, but she could see that it must be serious, although the stories she learned from Shen Bijun made her think of the tyrannical and twisted image of the eldest prince. On the one hand, but in Shangguan Fenglan's heart, he respects his brother who was born of the same mother.

Just as he was thinking about it, Shangguan Chonglian smiled casually from inside: "Uncle Eight Emperors has spent so much time and effort in managing it for many years, is it true that he really wants to make wedding clothes for his nephew? How many years has it been since my father died? I don't care who the Mausoleum throne should be, and I don't care about the throne. The Eighth Emperor's uncle's talent is not inferior to my father's, even much better than my father's. Why should the emperor blindly put himself in front of my father? After death, although my father was a great talent, he was too cruel by nature. Letting him ascend to the throne of God may not be good for Dong Ling, and his son is also. Although I am not as cruel as him, I have no ability to govern the country. I can cry blood and tears, but for me, the position of the dragon is still a bit restrained. Today, the eighth emperor uncle persuaded me to become the emperor, so it is better to do so. My nephew accepts it, but at this moment, I will 'give' the throne to the eighth emperor. Uncle Huang, I believe that with Uncle Eight's talents, Dong Ling will go further."

Shangguan Chonglian's words were careless and extremely casual, but they were truly pertinent. Xue Yi had long known that Shangguan Chonglian would not be willing to be bound by the throne of emperor. He was like the most unruly wild horse on the grassland. Galloping freely, relying on your sea and sky, can show his charm.

"What if I force you?" Shangguan Fenglan said calmly.

"Tangling will be destroyed once."

After a long time, he sighed: "Forget it, since you have no intention, I won't force it."

After a while, the door of the imperial study room opened, and Shangguan Chonglian came out. After Shangguan Chonglian left, the conversation sounded again in the imperial study room.

"My lord." This voice is what Meng Ran said: "Rong Mengran said something stupid, I don't want to be emperor, but because of the princess?"

Under the corner, Xue Yi got closer. In fact, Meng Ran's question was also what she had guessed in her mind.

"Why do you say that?" Shangguan Fenglan said lightly.

"Master really wants to hide the grassland hand in hand for the sake of the princess, and give up my whole life's hard work, ambitions, and grand plans? Meng Ran knows that the princess wants to live in the grassland wholeheartedly. You have sacrificed a lot for Dongling, so you can't bear it, so you want to give up the country's career?"

"Meng Ran, this king owes her too much, and he can only repay her with his whole life."

"But Meng Ran thinks that a person as delicate and clear as Wang Hao would not want Master to exchange grand plans and great achievements for a life of mediocrity. Mediocrity is precious, and life in the palace is hard, but Master, can you really let it go easily?"

"." There was silence in the room.

"My lord, although there is a plague in the imperial capital, it is also a good time. We can use the plague to restrain the troops of the seventh prince, the fourth prince, the fifth prince and other princes from all walks of life. The prince's ascension to the throne is just around the corner!" Meng Ran continued to speak.

Then Xue Yi couldn't listen to what was said in the imperial study.

She turned her head and walked back.

Abi didn't say anything, just followed quietly.

"Princess, if the prince is really willing to give up the country for the princess, does the princess really plan to take the little princess back to the grassland?" Abi endured for a while, but still asked what was in her heart.

Xue Yi sighed slightly, looking at the moonlight in the sky, "Abi, the sky is the place where the bird should stay, the cage can only kill its freedom, I don't want to trap him with a selfish net." And
As Xueyi said that, she had other plans in her heart.

While the master and servant were walking towards the bedroom, Xue Yi suddenly asked, "Abi, you've been lately. But did something unpleasant happen to Qing Tian?"

Abi didn't expect that Xueyi would suddenly bring the topic up to her, she couldn't help but pause, a fleeting wave flashed across her face, and then followed Xueyi's footsteps, "No, no, I'm on good terms with him .”

Xueyi stopped suddenly, and Abi almost bumped into Xueyi, taking a step back, not daring to look up into Xueyi's eyes.

"Abi, I heard that you rejected Qingtian's idea of ​​having a child?"

"...No." Abi replied lightly with a downcast face.

"Abby, look at me."

Abbie looked up.

"You don't want to have children for Qingtian?"

"No!" Abi denied it incessantly, showing her thoughts.

"Abi, I know what you are thinking. You are thinking for me, right? You are worried that you will not be able to stay by my side any time after you are pregnant, so you rejected Qingtian." Xue Yi looked at Abi firmly. , Abi lowered her head even more.

Thinking of the past few months, she didn't dare to let Long Qingtian touch her again. She was afraid that she would conceive a child at this time, and the princess would have no one to accompany her.But thinking of Long Qingtian's frustrated and lonely expression, she couldn't help feeling a lot of guilt and apology for Long Qingtian, as well as heartache.

At the beginning, Long Qingtian could bear the disappointment, but after a long time, every time he slept on the same bed, Long Qingtian wanted to ask Abi but was always suppressed by her rejection, which made Long Qingtian accumulate a lot of disappointment.

The atmosphere between each other is also in a tense state, but for Xueyi, Abi can only let herself be more cruel.

"Abi, after this incident, move to the General's Mansion and take good care of Qingtian."

"Princess, I'm fine, really!"

Xue Yi smiled, under the moonlight, that smile was somewhat sad.

It won't be long until she disappears forever, and Abi won't have to be troubled by her anymore. With Long Qingtian here, she doesn't have to worry. One day, Long Qingtian will heal Abi's injury and let Abi gradually walk out of her world , truly owning Abi's own life.

Before that, the only thing she has to do is to avenge no regrets!

The only thing he couldn't let go of was Shangguan Fenglan.

So she wants to persuade him to use the throne to fetter him, maybe with the country, he will be able to come out of the darkness one day.

The two walked slowly all the way, and just after leaving the Wenqing Palace, a figure hurriedly bumped into them.

"Little one, I have seen the princess, please greet the princess!"

Seeing that the man looked familiar, Xue Yi couldn't help but think for a while, and Abi who was beside him had already opened his mouth to scold: "What's going on in such a hurry, I can't even see the way!"

"Are you from Prince Jing's Mansion?" Xue Yi suddenly recognized the man.

"Exactly!"

"What happened to the palace?"

"Returning to the princess, Steward Feng committed suicide by swallowing gold and left a last word. The last words said that he had been with the Grand Concubine for the rest of his life. When he was old, he had to die and be buried underground, and then serve the Grand Concubine!"

Xue Yi took a step back, "Where is the last word?"

"The last words are here." The man handed the envelope to Xue Yi, who took a quick look at it and found a letter written in blood, in order to beg him to be buried for the old concubine after his death.

"He can be regarded as a loyal and loyal servant." Xue Yi pinched the blood book, "You can go back, I will tell the regent about it."

"Yes." The guard didn't stop, and returned to Prince Jing's mansion.

"Abi, go back to the imperial study." Xue Yi turned around and walked back holding the blood book.
