Harem women can't be provoked (23)
Lu Qingwan nodded with satisfaction. That's right. She just disdains, but does not fight. After all, she has seen a lot of gongdou dramas. It's easy for her to set up and take medicine.
After Lu Qingwan's rank was lowered. The front foot announced that the eunuch would go, and the rear foot sent a lot of things. The meaning of the Empress Dowager is very clear. Even if Lu Qingwan is not in favor and makes a mistake, there is the Empress Dowager standing behind her. The Empress Dowager is the emperor's biological mother.
In fact, the Empress Dowager is also against the emperor. The Empress Dowager likes Lu Qingwan, and the emperor demotes Lu Qingwan. To the outside world, this is the fact that Lu Qingwan has an affair with the Lord.
So next, it's not only Lu Qingwan who is in danger, but also Meng zhanran. The Empress Dowager gives a gift to Lu Qingwan, which is to show her attitude and let the emperor weigh it.
Just when the imperial court and the harem were in turmoil, there was another important incident outside, that is, Meng zhanran, the virtuous king, committed suicide.
When he received the news, Lu Qingwan's heart beat missed a few beats. After five minutes, he remembered that he was feigning death.
"Say it again!" Lu Qingwan shouts to the eunuch who comes to report outside the door.
When the eunuch outside repeats, Lu Qingwan just pats his heart. He laughs at himself without anger. It's clear that he gave the medicine. How can he still scare himself like this.
He shook his hand and eased the tension in his heart. He put his shaking hand into his sleeve and closed his eyes. When he opened it again, he regained his composure.
But next, she can't be so calm.
Therefore, Lu Qingwan stood up, stamped his feet, then hit the tea cup on the table to the ground, and kneaded his clothes for a few minutes. Then he opened the door in a panic, pulled the little maid at the door and asked, "what's the matter with Xianwang?"
The little maid in waiting is actually a messenger. She shrinks her neck in fright. Then she repeats it again. This is the third time.
I couldn't help muttering in my heart that the concubine and the prince really had an affair.
Lu Qingwan pushed aside the eunuch and the maids, and then stumbled to the Empress Dowager's palace. Along the way, many people saw it.
When he heard the news, Meng miaoran was empty in his heart, and didn't even react.
Since he had this younger brother, he has been in a state of comparison with this younger brother, or competing with him. Now he suddenly hears that Meng zhanran committed suicide, which makes him feel unreal.
Meng miaoran holds Meng zhanran's posthumous letter presented by eunuch. For a moment, he doesn't know what kind of reaction is normal.
"The emperor?" The eunuch next to him calls Meng miaoran back to God. Meng miaoran puts away the letter in his hand and goes to the Empress Dowager's palace.
The Empress Dowager has also learned the news, and has fainted.
Originally, Lu Qingwan was able to feel her pulse, but now she was in a state of uneasiness. She couldn't see others at all, so she had to wait anxiously for the imperial doctor to feel her pulse.
In fact, Lu Qingwan is really upset. She considers the ending of Meng zhanran, but she doesn't expect the reaction of the Empress Dowager. If the Empress Dowager has any mistakes in the end, Lu Qingwan is ashamed.
The Empress Dowager woke up and the emperor arrived.
Before Meng miaoran could salute, she was called by the Empress Dowager to ask if Meng zhanran was really dead. Meng miaoran took out the letter in her arms and gave it to the Empress Dowager. After reading it, the Empress Dowager almost fell into a coma again. Lu Qingwan quickly came forward to hold the Empress Dowager's back, and then naturally picked up the letter.
The main idea of the letter was that he was innocent by death, and that he just liked Lu Qingwan. The only things he could not rest assured about after his death were Lu Qingwan and the Empress Dowager.
This is the first time that Meng miaoran sees the rupture of indifference on Lu Qingwan's face. It's for others.
"It's you, rebellious son. He's your brother. Why can't you tolerate him so much! Now that he's dead, are you at ease? " The Empress Dowager slapped Meng miaoran hard.
Meng miaoran's face was missed, but he didn't say anything.
"Leave the sight of the mourning family..." the voice of the Empress Dowager aggravates and drives Meng miaoran out.
Meng miaoran saluted and left, then he left. After Meng miaoran left, the Empress Dowager cried out again.
Lu Qingwan hesitated for a moment. After everyone around him retreated, he said that Meng zhanran was still alive. The Empress Dowager also confirmed for a while.
The Empress Dowager's sadness was slightly restrained, but the Empress Dowager was also an actor. She refused to meet Meng miaoran for two days because of her physical discomfort.What about Lu Qingwan? He stayed in the palace with the Empress Dowager and cried. Even Zhu Ruihan couldn't avoid seeing guests, and let Meng miaoran eat everywhere.
Meng miaoran dealt with Meng zhanran's funeral.
In fact, for Meng zhanran's death, Meng miaoran also checked, but he really died, and saw the coffin sealed with his own eyes.
Seven days after stopping the coffin, the virtuous King officially went to the Royal Cemetery, but Meng zhanran had no children, so he sent his prince Meng Jingxu to help the coffin.
The Empress Dowager has been busy asking for a doctor for a while.
After the death of the sage king Meng zhanran, the whole country fell into depression. The whole court also had a reshuffle because of Meng zhanran's death. Of course, some ministers who were very close to Meng zhanran were removed.
One month after Meng zhanran died, Lu Qingwan saw Meng miaoran again.
In fact, Meng miaoran would come for a walk in front of Lu Qingwan's palace every other day, but Lu Qingwan didn't know it.
It was a month later that Lu Qingwan came out of the door because he remembered that his herbs had not been put away at night. Then he saw Meng miaoran.
Lu Qingwan didn't expect Meng miaoran to come here. He was stunned, and then respectfully said hello.
Meng miaoran didn't expect to see Lu Qingwan when he was caught off guard. After he got Lu Qingwan up, he didn't know what to say.
Lu Qingwan was wearing thin clothes and a cape outside. It seems that he put on his cape and got up after going to bed. His black hair hung behind him, and he didn't wear any powder, which made Lu Qingwan look very unreal.
"It's cold at night. Please come back, Emperor." Lu Qingwan didn't even go to see Meng miaoran.
"I didn't do the death of King Xian." Meng miaoran didn't know why he had to explain this. "I really wanted to find evidence, but I didn't lay my hands on his death..."
For Zhu Ruihan, Meng miaoran said the same thing, but he was blown out hysterically by Zhu Ruihan, which made him lose face. Later, he gave up the explanation. For the empress dowager, he also said the same thing, but the Empress Dowager is a tired look, let him retreat.
Meng miaoran really wants to deal with Meng zhanran, but he wants an open and aboveboard reason.
