Shengjing Noble

Chapter 385 She Wants to Kill Me

Su Lanyin whispered, "So the Fifth Prince doesn't like Miss Lan? I saw you guys behind the rockery before..."

She hesitated to speak, her face full of shyness, but even without her saying it, one could guess what it was.

The emperor looked displeased: "So, you two have been entangled in private for a long time?"

The queen glared at Lan Yinyin angrily, as if she wanted to eat her alive.

Just as Fu Mingli was about to deny it, Lan Yinyin took out a jade pendant from her arms, which was the Fifth Prince's jade token.

"Your Majesty, the prince and I are in love. In fact... in fact, the maid has already been pregnant with the prince's child..."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was surprised.

Fu Mingli was speechless and knelt on the ground in embarrassment and annoyance. His love for Lan Yinyin collapsed in an instant.

It can only be said that all love is so vulnerable in the face of interests.

The queen was furious, pointing at her and cursing, "What nonsense! How dare you, a lowly creature like you, slander the Fifth Prince? Who knows whose bastard you are pregnant with!"

Lan Yinyin was very excited when she heard this: "Your Majesty, the Queen is very clear. I only have one man, the Prince, and I will never betray him. Uh... my belly..."

As she spoke, she covered her lower abdomen with a look of pain and fell to the ground in pain.

Upon seeing this, the emperor immediately summoned the imperial physician.

After diagnosis, Lan Yinyin was found to be pregnant. Now, even if Fu Mingli didn't want to acknowledge her, he had no choice.

The emperor was very angry and punished Fu Mingli by confining him to his house for a month, and then waiting for the wedding.

The queen was so angry that she slapped Su Lanxin on the spot and left. Fu Mingheng was also very angry.

After everyone left, the emperor walked alone in the woods with Su Lanyin.

He said: "Today, what happened? Tell me the truth."

Su Lanyin didn't dare to hide it, so she lowered her head and told the whole story.

"Your Majesty has actually guessed it, right? The target of their plot today was originally your servant."

"Then how did you get away after you saw through it?"

"I saw Lan Yinyin and the Fifth Prince fighting behind the rockery, so when she took me to the side hall, she already knew what was going on and was on guard."

"Then why don't you just expose it directly, but instead take advantage of the situation?"

"Because I want to see them suffer the consequences of their actions."

"But you have brought shame to the royal family. Aren't you afraid that I will blame you?"

"Your Majesty, the ones who brought shame upon you were those who framed me. You are so noble and upright, how could you possibly blame me, the victim?"

"Humph, you little girl are not only mischievous, but also sharp-tongued."

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."

"Then what's going on between you and Mingchuan?"

"I was poisoned and accidentally entered the Broken Cloud Pavilion, where I was rescued by the Seventh Prince."

"How could you, a disciple of a great doctor, be drugged?"

"I was also puzzled, but I suddenly figured it out just now."

"Oh? Tell me."

"I knew they were going to drug me, so I didn't dare touch the food and drinks at the banquet, but I ate the oranges."

"The orange has skin, how can they poison it?"

"Of course, it was dissolved in water and then smeared on the orange peel. My hand touched the orange peel and I put the orange into my mouth. As a result, I was poisoned."

"Also, the smell of their medicine is very light, and the smell of oranges can cover it up, so I didn't notice it and almost got poisoned. I must be more cautious in the future."

The emperor looked at her and couldn't help but wonder: "You tell me the truth, aren't you afraid that I will protect you?"

Su Lanyin immediately knelt on the ground and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, I dared to guess your Majesty's intention. Please forgive me."

"Tell me, what did you guess?"

"I know that Prime Minister Wei is loyal to His Majesty. Although he has great power, he has no intention of rebelling. Instead, he works wholeheartedly for His Majesty. Therefore, His Majesty has repeatedly tolerated the Empress for the sake of Prime Minister Wei."

"Your Majesty has great ambitions for the country and is unwilling to disappoint his subjects for the sake of love. This shows that your Majesty values ​​his loyal subjects more. The Lu family has helped your Majesty solve problems before, and I have been rewarded by your Majesty, so you will definitely not embarrass me."

The emperor smiled and said, "How dare you discuss state affairs."

"I dare not!"

"Okay, let's get up."

"Yes."

Su Lanyin stood up and continued to walk forward beside the emperor.

The two were silent for a while, and the emperor suddenly asked again.

"Old Seven's illness... do you have a solution?"

Su Lanyin shook her head: "Even Doctor Xue can't do it, what else can I do...but..."

Her sudden change of subject made the emperor's eyes light up.

"what?"

"But there is someone who may be able to extend your life."

"Who?"

"The best witch in the world, Mo Sanghuai."

"Why have I never heard of it?"

This person is very low-key and only appears in Lingnan. In her previous life, Su Lanyin had only heard of this person before she died.

At that time, she was already terminally ill and on the verge of death. She only heard from her servants that a small town in the south had been flooded and many people had died.

The emperor was extremely anxious and spent a lot of money to recruit talented people to find ways to stop the flood.

Among them stood a woman named Mosanghuai.

She not only calmed the flood, but also cured the plague, and was loved by people all over the world for a time.

Su Lanyin heard that she came from a family of witches and was best at making poisons, and that the poisonous insects that the queen gave to Fu Mingchuan were also from Lingnan.

Maybe if we find this person in advance, we might be able to save Fu Mingchuan.

The emperor's eyes lit up after hearing this: "Then I will entrust this matter to you, how about it?"

"Ah? Your Highness...is it inconvenient?"

Does the emperor think her life is too short?

What if the Queen knew that she wanted to save Fu Mingchuan and wanted to take her life?

The emperor smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will send someone to assist you secretly, and I won't give you a reason to prevent anyone from discovering it."

Having said that, Su Lanyin had no choice but to nod.

"Yes, I obey your command."

The emperor looked ahead, sighed, and said earnestly: "In fact, my tolerance of the queen is not entirely due to the Wei family."

"what?"

She didn't expect the emperor to suddenly talk to her about this, and a hint of discomfort flashed in her eyes.

"Back then, I was the least favored prince. I was even framed by my brother and was almost demoted to a commoner. It was the Queen who never left me and made a fuss with my family to support me, which allowed me to get to where I am today."

"My feelings towards her are very complicated. We have been married for many years, so I have to be more tolerant of her."

"Then...what about Concubine Lin?" Su Lanyin couldn't help but ask.

"Ayu..." The emperor sighed, a hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes, "I always thought Ayu was kind, but you know what! She also deliberately approached me, just because I ordered the killing of her father, she wanted to kill me to avenge her father."

"I see... then what happened next?"

Only then did Su Lanyin realize that things were so complicated.

"The queen is not a jealous person. She can accommodate so many people in the harem, so she naturally would not embarrass Ah Yu, nor would she hate her because of her father's affairs. It's just that I know that she once wanted to kill me, so I took action against her."
