The heroine Jiangshan

Chapter 61: Collecting Souls ([-])

"Princess, the tea you want."

The little eunuch respectfully handed Yun Ruochen hot tea.Yun Ruochen was already dizzy at this moment, and didn't want to say a word, drinking hot tea silently so that he could recover quickly.

The little eunuch on the other side handed her hot water and a towel to ask her to wash her hands and apply to her face.Yun Ruochen pressed the acupuncture points to stop the bleeding, and the blood and gray marks on his hands were almost wiped off. Now he took this opportunity to wash his hands, and the scars didn't look obvious.

"Ah, the emperor!"

Concubine Duan Gui's cry of surprise came from the inner room, Yun Ruochen didn't bother to wash his hands, he lifted his skirt and walked towards the inner room door.

Although she couldn't get in for the time being, she was really concerned about the situation inside, and she couldn't help subconsciously wanting to get closer to hear the news like ordinary people.

"Thank goodness, Your Majesty, you are finally awake."

Concubine Duan Guifei's voice was full of tears, and there was another burst of panic inside. Accompanied by the emperor's "vomit" and "vomit", it is estimated that the emetic drugs poured down by the imperial doctors finally took effect.

It worked!
She finally succeeded in hooking back the wandering souls and seven spirits of the old emperor.If it weren't for her success, the imperial doctors would not be able to wake up the emperor no matter how much emetics they administered or how many needles they inserted.

But once the emperor regained his sanity, these medicines would have a big effect.

"Squeak", the door of the inner room opened from the inside, Concubine Duan Gui said loudly: "Hurry up, get someone to bring over the decocted medicine, hurry up!"

The little eunuchs left in response.Seeing Yun Ruochen standing in front of her with a face full of expectation, Concubine Duan Gui couldn't help sharing the good news with her: "Chen'er, the emperor is awake!"

"Great!"

Yun Ruochen couldn't help cheering.

Unexpectedly, the emperor could still hear the movement outside when he was in a coma.

"Who...is that girl Chen..."

"Grandfather, it's me, it's me!"

Yun Ruochen held Concubine Duan Gui's sleeve and shook it pleadingly, Concubine Duan Gui let her in without thinking too much.

"Your majesty, it will be fine if you wake up. I scared the concubine to death... just now Chen'er has been guarding outside."

"……Is it……"

The old emperor coughed violently again.

Yun Ruochen hurriedly rushed forward to support the half-sit up emperor, and patted his back with his right hand regularly, and sure enough, the old emperor's anger became much smoother after a while.

Emperor Yuan Qi let out a mouthful of turbid air, and his dizzy old eyes gradually recovered some spirit.

He glanced sideways at Yun Ruochen who was waiting by the bed, and didn't express anything, but his eyes were much softer.

"Ma'am, the medicine is here!"

An imperial doctor sent the freshly brewed soup to Concubine Duan on a tray.The little eunuch who specialized in serving the old emperor's medicine just wanted to come over, but Yun Ruochen took the initiative to pick up the medicine bowl, and said softly: "Grandfather, drink the medicine quickly, it will definitely be cured soon."

"……it is good."

Emperor Yuan Qi took a few breaths, then took Yun Ruochen's hand and drank the bowl of hot black soup.

Watching Emperor Yuan Qi finish the medicinal soup in one gulp, a faint smile appeared on Yun Ruochen's lips.

Great, the last step is also done.

The moment she took the decoction, she quickly poured the ash from the talisman hidden in the handkerchief on the palm of her left hand into the medicine bowl.

But all warlocks must know how to do it, the more skilled the warlock is, the better the skills will be.Although Yun Ruochen has no vitality, his techniques are not unfamiliar, and even if he does it under the eyes of everyone, he will not be easily seen through.

She has practiced all kinds of spells since she was sensible, how could she become unfamiliar just because she changed her body.

Only when Emperor Yuan Qi drank the talisman ashes, could her soul-absorbing technique be considered complete.

Next, you can safely hand over Emperor Yuanqi to the imperial doctor... No, not yet!
"Grandfather, why did you faint? Chen'er, father, imperial concubine and empress are all worried to death!"

Relying on his "young and ignorant", Yun Ruochen pretended to know nothing and started to question.

"Humph!"

Emperor Yuan Qi did not answer her question, but a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
-
After he woke up, he didn't need to think too much, he knew that he must have been plotted against.

Gu Yuan did indeed report King Shu's changes to him when he asked for an impromptu meeting yesterday.Of course, Gu Yuan did not hand over all the black materials that "Prince Jing" gave him, but took the matter all on himself, making up reasons that he accidentally found out that something was wrong with King Shu, as if it was King Shu who made such a fuss among the clans Connect them in series behind the back.

Emperor Yuan Qi was a suspicious person, and he had to be on his guard when he had nothing to do. After hearing about this matter, he immediately paid attention to it.

He may not be a wise king, but he is definitely not a faint king.He has always been very concerned about the important affairs of the court.

And this time the clan's proposal to cut salary is really related to King Shu...

Ten years ago, when King Shu had just returned to the imperial court, Emperor Yuan Qi was really scrupulous about King Shu.But King Shu's scheming is no less than that of the emperor, and the "pure mind and few desires" lifestyle for many years has gradually made the emperor relax his vigilance.

Emperor Yuan Qi and King Shu's father were indeed childhood playmates, and they had a deep relationship.Since King Shu was so knowledgeable, Emperor Yuan Qi didn't like to get close to his sons—mainly because he was afraid of killing his son—so he called this nephew into the palace to discuss some matters from time to time.

The matter of cutting the ancestral salary was initiated by King Shu "inadvertently" from the very beginning.

Outsiders didn't know about this matter, but Emperor Yuan Qi came to his senses as soon as he contacted the cause and effect.So tonight, he made a complete arrangement for the affairs outside the palace.

Keeping those clansmen who came to ask for an audience to eat in the palace seems to be a kindness, but in fact it is imprisonment and surveillance.But Emperor Yuan Qi really didn't expect that they could poison themselves without knowing it!
"You just said that I was the only one who fainted?"

Emperor Yuan Qi ignored Yun Ruochen, but looked at Concubine Duan Gui standing in front of the bed.

Concubine Duan nodded hurriedly, and Emperor Yuan Qi's complexion became even darker.It seems that there is a problem in his palace, a big problem!

Last time, the court lady Ruifang was found to have a background of the Destiny Sect, and the palace had already been investigated once. Unexpectedly, there are still undiscovered spies lurking down?
He stared at Concubine Duan Gui coldly, Concubine Duan Gui immediately comprehended the emperor's anger, hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty: "Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty's forgiveness!"

Just as Concubine Duan Gui knelt down, the court ladies, eunuchs, and imperial physicians behind her knelt down to plead guilty.

Of course, Yun Ruochen understood that the emperor was blaming Concubine Duan Gui for not taking good care of the people in the palace. As the actual manager of the Sixth Palace, she made mistakes one after another.

She wanted to sell Concubine Duan's favor, so she only acted surprised, and shouted from the bed with two tears in her eyes: "Grandpa, please forgive me!"

"...Why are you kneeling, little girl, get up."

It was rare for Emperor Yuan Qi not to anger her, and his tone was not harsh.

But Yun Ruochen couldn't get up on his knees, and hurriedly said: "No, Chen'er is really guilty. Actually...in fact...when I saw Grandpa Huang in the morning, Chen'er wanted to say, Grandpa you...are you okay? ...At that time, I shouldn't be afraid of your blame, and I should let the imperial doctor take your pulse for you..."

"Ok?"

Emperor Yuan Qi's expression changed: "What did you say?"

"Chen'er... Chen'er..."

Yun Ruochen and Ai Ai couldn't finish a sentence, tears couldn't stop overflowing.Emperor Yuan Qi didn't have the patience to coax the child, so he said in a deep voice, "Speak up! I don't blame you...cough cough cough..."

He couldn't help coughing again.

Emperor Yuan Qi, who had just woken up, was still in poor spirits after all.The imperial doctors really wanted to persuade him not to bother to rest first, but seeing the extremely dangerous situation inside and outside the palace, they didn't dare to speak out.

"Chen'er hasn't seen Grandpa Huang for a long time, and I'm so happy. But when I came here this morning, I found that Grandpa Huang looks very good, but... But there are many bloodshot eyes in your eyes, and your lips are so red. Son... Then I wondered if Grandpa Huang had taken a lot of tonic..."

"A few days ago, Chen'er served Huang Niangniang in the mansion with decoctions. The doctor said that the elderly and pregnant women should not take medicines that greatly strengthen the body. They also said that although the tonics are good for the spirit after taking them, they can damage the vitality. So use them at night. During the meal, Chen'er saw that Grandpa Huang was still drinking, so...so worried..."

Concubine Duan Gui knelt on the ground, listening to Yun Ruochen's childish voice saying these words, she sighed secretly.

She also knew that the emperor always took the tonic made by those alchemists, which was not good for his health.But if you understand the truth, who really dares to say this to the emperor?
No matter how high her status is in the palace, she is just a humble concubine in front of the emperor!What's more, she doesn't even have any children. Once she loses the emperor's favor, she will be inferior to Concubine Zhang Shu, and those bitches who have been suppressed by her will not let her go...

So for the emperor, she can only flatter her!

"That's it..."

After hearing what Yun Ruochen said, Emperor Yuan Qi narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.

Could it be that there was something wrong with the pill he took in the morning... Those alchemists!snort!
Yun Ruochen stopped talking, and from Emperor Yuan Qi's reaction, she knew that her goal had been achieved.

She is 100% sure that there is something wrong with the pill, and spies are definitely among the alchemists.As for the other people implicated in the "innocent"...

From the moment they entered the palace, this day was destined to come.

If you choose to serve the emperor in exchange for wealth, you will have to bear the ensuing retribution.

A true member of a strange family never disdained to be stained with wealth and power.It is helpless to give birth to her with dragon energy like her mother's in order to continue the bloodline, so it also damages the already weak lifespan even more.

Yun Ruochen didn't have the slightest sympathy for those alchemists who were unlucky because they followed suit.

Concubine Duan Gui cast a grateful glance at Yun Ruochen.If the problem lies with the Taoist priests, then her guilt is greatly reduced, because those people are really out of her control.What the little girl said inadvertently helped her a lot...

"Your Majesty, His Highness Prince Jing and Prince Cheng heard that the Emperor had woken up, and they were all waiting outside to see you."

Emperor Yuan Qi waved his hand wearily and said, "No see."

Concubine Duan boldly said: "Your Majesty, maybe the two princes have brought news from outside the palace..."

The fire outside the palace also made Concubine Duan very uneasy.Nothing big will happen, right?

"I have already made arrangements for things outside the palace."

Emperor Yuan Qi didn't pay attention to these people around him any more, closed his eyes and regained his composure, as if he was thinking about something.

Yun Ruochen was relieved.

　let me say what?I just finished talking yesterday and wanted to update on time, but the keyboard rotted... What kind of auspicious rhythm is this... Today I was forced to buy a new keyboard to write a chapter... Crying and continuing to write tomorrow... I Don't dare to say anything anymore!
