Xiao Ruyue was momentarily speechless.
"What are you talking about? "Is it delicious?" Lu Yi appeared, caught off guard.
Puff.
Caught off guard, Xiao Ruyue and Liangqiu Yayin could not help but laugh out loud.
"What, what did I say wrong?" With a head full of fog, she placed the fresh crabapple cake on the table.
At this time, she was the only one who was still in the mood to play with the snacks.
It was a very early morning, and the sky was not completely bright yet. Lu Yi went to the Imperial Garden to pick a basket of dewy crabapple flowers, crushing and grinding them for more than two hours.
"You didn't say anything wrong." Xiao Ruyue said with a serious face.
She picked up a piece of pastry and took a sniff. The fragrance of the flowers seemed to be nonexistent. It smelled very good.
"This dessert was made from the skin of a crabapple flower?" What's so special about it? "
Liangqiu Yayin was curious, she also picked up a piece, and tasted it, "Wu, it is a little sweet, and there is even a faint fragrance of flowers, sweet but not greasy, but it is fragrant and not boring. green girl's cooking skills are really amazing."
He had just taken a bite and was already full of praise.
Xiao Ruyue also began to eat as she continued to eat, "She's already so proud that she doesn't know who she is. If you keep praising her, Big Sister Ya Yin's tail would shoot up into the sky."
"Your Highness, how can you say that about people?"
He muttered in a low voice and pouted, feeling wronged.
Xiao Ruyue could not help but laugh, almost choking the pastries.
While the palace was in a blissful state, the Wei Wang Manor, which was not far from the palace, was still in a strange atmosphere.
After Yuwen Chenglian washed up and dressed up, he looked bright and beautiful. He then rode his horse alone to leave the manor and did not allow anyone to follow his.
The place he was going to, was the Cigarette Water Pavilion.
Afraid that others would know where he was heading to, Zhang Xuan intentionally avoided the main street and walked into a remote alley.
Today, he would naturally meet the Tower Lord that he wanted to meet. After a round of emotional lobbying and from time to time putting on the airs of a prince to show his worth, the Tower Lord was slightly displeased.
After a while, the tower lord behind the curtain said, "I know about this. The prince could return first, and then there would be people who would go and treat the wangfei. For the sake of our Red Sleeve House's wealth, this reputed one will definitely not throw away Your Highness at this time. "
"Then I'll thank OP first." Yuwen Chenglian was finally satisfied, and left the house.
Little did he know that Red Sleeve House Tower Master Ye Haitang, who was behind the curtains, was laughing at him in disdain.
Do you really think you have the life to be an emperor? Even if you could really climb to the throne, it was not for you to call the wind and summon the rain.
How naive!
Shortly after noon came the explosive news that the poison in the princess' body had been dispelled.
"Niangniang, you don't know. This matter was originally caused by someone shouting in the teahouse, but the news quickly spread." It was said that the Wei Wang Manor had received an otherworldly female expert. She was a godly doctor and her skills were extraordinary. In a few moments, the poison on the princess' body that even the imperial physicians could do nothing to be cured of. Imperial Physician Li and Imperial Physician Wang would definitely not have the face to meet anyone again this time. I'll see if they still dare to say with confidence that they have great experience in medicine the next time. "
Lu Yi told Xiao Ruyue about the news outside and did not forget to ridicule the two stubborn old man.
"If Imperial Physician Li and the others hear your words, they would definitely be heartbroken." Xiao Ruyue joked.
Lu Yi said nonchalantly, "They were obviously the ones with inferior skills. Empress, I actually also want to see what that female Divine Doctor looks like. Can we go to the Duke Palaces? "
Xiao Ruyue pointed to Liangqiu Yayin beside him when she heard what she said, causing Lu Yi's face to darken, "That's different."
The empress propped up her chin with a look of innocence. "What's different? Big Sister Ya Yin is not a woman? "
"Princess, you are trying to force the truth out of me." Lu Yi stomped her foot.
It was indeed as the rumors said.
Once Yuwen Chenglian returned to the residence, he swore that he had already found a famous doctor who could cure Princess Hua-Yang's poison. He even specially sent someone to the Phoenix Palace to report to him, afraid that others wouldn't know about it.
He had originally planned to enter the palace by himself, but after weighing the pros and cons, he decided against it.
Although Yuwen Chenglian's words were indeed reasonable, the servants of the Duke Palace did not hold much hope.
Just when everyone thought that the prince had lied to them in order to pacify their hearts, this woman, who was wearing a bamboo hat and was dressed as an otherworldly expert, appeared.
It was about time.
She held the access token to the palace, and said that the prince requested for it, the servants were skeptical, and immediately went to ask for Yuwen Chenglian's permission.
Very quickly, Yuwen Chenglian came out personally. After exchanging a few simple words of greeting, he politely invited the nun into the manor.
The Daoist nun entered the house, fed the wangfei with medicine and acupuncture, and even opened a prescription that no one could understand. She was mysterious, but it seemed very powerful.
In less than two hours, the dying princess, who was already seventy or eighty years old, had actually slowly recovered.
Moreover, as time passed, his flabbergasted face slowly withdrew. His white hair was slowly turning black as well.
The servants present were all dumbfounded.
He didn't even dare to blink, afraid that he would miss out on a wonderful moment.
By nightfall, it was said that half of the princess' white hair had returned to black.
According to the divine doctor, "As long as two or three more days are left to rest and recuperate, the wangfei would be able to recover completely."
After that, the divine doctor left behind the medicinal formula and flew away, disappearing without a trace.
The prince and the princess shed tears of gratitude.
What outsiders did not know was that things were never that simple.
Inside the Phoenix Palace.
Yuwen He came over before dinner, and pulled Xiao Ruyue to have some warmth. After eating dinner, they went back to the royal study to continue busying themselves.
He was still very busy, going in and out every day. He didn't take the initiative to speak with Xiao Ruyue, and Xiao Ruyue didn't ask too much either.
After Yuwen He left, Liangqiu Yayin brewed a cup of ginseng tea for Xiao Ruyue. When she talked about Yao Ziyan's situation, Liangqiu Yayin sneered: "How could she recover after getting hit by 'Old Man Xi'? These people really don't care about their lives."
"What kind of explanation is this?" Xiao Ruyue was a little doubtful.
Liangqiu Yayin answered with a question: "Do you know why 'Old Man Xiang' was destroyed by my grandfather's determination?"
Xiao Ruyue originally thought that she knew something, but after this question from Liangqiu Yayin, she didn't have any confidence.
He shook his head.
"The reason why this poison is called 'One Night Old' is because it is extremely toxic, corroding one's internal organs within a short period of time, damaging the very foundation of the human body, which is why it can cause people to age so quickly. Moreover, the damage was irreversible. Even if there is an antidote, it would still take a long period of time to recuperate and recuperate.
"That Yao Ziyan is …"
"Red Sleeve House does not lack Spring Restoration Pills. "What do you think?"
Xiao Ruyue suddenly realized, "You mean to say, in order to help Yao Ziyan recover, Ye Haitang had concealed the truth and used a large amount of Spring-Returning Immortal Pills on her?"
Liangqiu Yayin nodded, "To recover quickly in a short period of time, I have to take several times the usual doses. The poison in the Spring Restoration Pill would also quickly accumulate, and this was a short-lived method. If Yao Ziyan knows the truth, she will definitely not do so. "
Xiao Ruyue could not help but shake her head.
The pitiful Yao Ziyan had gone all out with her calculations and caused her to suffer so much, yet she didn't know that she was just a chess piece in the hands of someone else.
Presumably, she was still feeling pleased with herself, and was even grateful to the mastermind behind all of this.
Too pitiful.
They all say that the pitiful person must have something to hate, Xiao Ruyue suddenly felt that the detestable person must have something too.
However, she would not forgive him for that.
Because, this was the path that Yao Ziyan had chosen.
Yao Ziyan had chosen to reverse right from wrong, to kill people without thinking, betraying her complete trust. This was the price she had to pay!
There would always be a reward for good and evil. When he raised his head, who had the heavens spared?
On this night, Xiao Ruyue's heart was unable to calm down.
Without waiting for Yuwen He's return, she went to sleep first, but the moment he went to sleep, he started dreaming.
In his dreams, he saw babies that had just been born being strangled to death by Yao Ziyan with their entire bodies turning purple.
The child had been conceived in her womb in October and had died before she had a chance to see the world.
Yao Ziyan's hands were drenched with blood.
But Yuwen Chenglian was even more!
Hearing Yao Ziyan's words, he believed it. Yao Ziyan had said that she had a secret relationship with someone, and without even asking, he believed it all! He did not believe her.
He even watched as Yao Ziyan strangled his own son to death, while urging her to make a move on him!
If he only had a little bit of humanity and a little bit of trust, he definitely wouldn't be like this!
This person was worse than a pig or dog!
Within the dream, heavy rain poured down as lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. The child died a miserable death. She was hung up and beaten to a pulp. The scorching red-colored iron chains embedded into her flesh and blood, hurting to the point of tearing her heart and tearing her lungs apart …
"I won't let you off, I won't!"
"I will definitely make you pay with your blood! I will make you pay with your blood!"
"I will strangle you to death!" "I'll strangle you to death —"
Xiao Ruyue who was sleeping was drenched in sweat, her tears were like rain, she waved her hand, as though she was using all of her strength to grasp at the void, and then at herself.
When Yuwen He, who had just returned, saw this scene, he immediately turned pale with fright. He forcefully suppressed her hands and feet and repeatedly called out —
"Min Er, wake up, wake up! "You're dreaming, wake up!"
"Wake up! This is a dream. "
She struggled with all her might as she cursed him for wanting to pay with blood.
"If I don't kill you in this life, I swear I won't be human! "I want to strangle you to death, strangle you to death —"
"Your Majesty, what happened?" Fang Weiyong and Yin Lin who were outside wanted to come in, but were stopped by Yuwen He, "You are not allowed to come in!"
"Elder Sister Xiao, wake up! It's me, I'm here. " Yuwen He blurted out anxiously.
He called out a few times, only to see the restless Xiao Ruyue seemed to show signs of easing up.
In the darkness, Xiao Ruyue seemed to hear someone calling her.
He did not call her Situ Min, nor did he call her the Empress, nor did he call her Min Er.
It's for her, Elder Sister Xiao.
