Something is hidden from me

Qingqing was stunned.

The empress merely smiled and didn't explain any further.

Yin Lin glanced at Qingqing, and without saying anything else, she took her leave.

Because he did not get enough sleep, Xiao Ruyue laid down and continued to rest.

He slept until the light came on.

Lu Yi had specially stewed fish head soup, Xiao Ruyue could smell it even before she opened her eyes.

She sat up sleepily, her green dress already standing at the table with the steaming fish head soup.

The fragrance of the fish soup filled the room, causing one's appetite to rise.

"Empress, you woke up at the right time. This soup has just come out of the pot." Lu Yi happily smiled at her.

Xiao Ruyue unconsciously swallowed, and washed her face and rinsed her mouth.

Qing Qing helped her comb her hair before she stood behind her and did not move, like she was moving a wooden stake.

Before, Xiao Ruyue had tried to persuade her to find a place to sit. She wasn't willing, so Xiao Ruyue didn't try to persuade her — — Whenever she got tired of standing, she would fly to the roof to rest.

"Empress, His Majesty sent Eunuch Fang Fang Weiyong just now, saying that he would be a little busy today and would be able to come back later. It is not necessary for you to have an evening meal first. " Lu Yi said as she scooped a bowl of soup and handed it over to Xiao Ruyue.

The exam had just passed and he was currently busy reading the papers. Reading the papers was a technical work and not just reading the articles on the paper.

did not know how many of the examiners were in charge of reading the papers, but seeing that the imperial court was in a mess, it was only right for him to be busy.

Xiao Ruyue nodded and said: "Leave some soup on the stove to warm up. Your Majesty, you can come back later to drink it."

"Empress, don't worry. This servant knew you would say that, so I prepared for it." Lu Yi smiled vulgarly.

"Stupid girl." Xiao Ruyue glanced at her and started drinking.

The Fish Head Soup was a milky white color and had been simmering for at least two hours. The soup had the sweetness of fish and the freshness of other ingredients mixed in with it. It was simply a delicacy on earth.

Xiao Ruyue drank half a bowl, then suddenly remembered that she had not seen Liangqiu Yayin since early morning. She asked: "Lu Yi, have you ever seen Sister Ya Yin?"

"After you fell asleep, Miss Liangqiu took your pulse before disappearing." Lu Yi shook her head, "I think Miss Liangqiu probably went out of the palace. Yesterday, I heard her say that she was going to have a fight with that Tang guy."

Lu Yi rolled her eyes with a strange expression.

Xiao Ruyue did not think too much about it.

She had two bowls of soup and half a bowl of rice before she was full.

Because Yuwen He had already sent someone to say that she would be home late, she finished her meal and wandered around the room a few times before sitting down and reading a book.

After lying on the bed for the entire day, her bones had become lazy. However, since Qingqing and Qingyi were unwilling to let her go, she didn't force herself. She held up an idle book as she continued reading.

She was only reading a book, and Lu Yi was also going to nag, "Empress, you're not fully recovered yet. Reading books is too tiring."

Look, she's a little housekeeper.

Xiao Ruyue smiled and did not speak. She was afraid that it would be too dark in the house so she quickly went to light a lamp.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Ruyue felt too embarrassed to remind her: The room was about to become bright as day.

It was already late, and Yuwen He had not come back yet.

As Xiao Ruyue listened to the young eunuch report the time, a trace of unease suddenly emerged in his heart.

Even if he was busy with the exam and also had to deal with Yuwen Chenglian's people who were causing trouble in the dark, he should still be back by this time.

Xiao Ruyue closed the book, looked at Qing Qing, then stared at Qing Yi: "Is there something you guys are hiding from me?"

"No, Empress, you're thinking too much." Lu Yi's gaze was somewhat evasive. After hesitating for a moment, she bravely met her gaze.

"What is it that I can't know?" Xiao Ruyue ignored the casual look on her face.

Emmie's moment of hesitation was sufficient proof of that.

"What is the Empress saying? I don't understand." Emmie still had an unreadable expression on its face.

Xiao Ruyue's eyes flashed, without saying much, she immediately got off the bed, put on her shoes and clothes and walked out.

"Empress, what are you doing?" Lu Yi hurried over to grab her clothes. Even Qing Qing, who had pretended to be a wooden stake, rushed over and blocked her in front of her. She took one step forward, but Qing Qing didn't move an inch.

Xiao Ruyue's hand paused, she stared fixedly at Lu Yi, "Speak, did something happen to me?"

"No." After saying that, she realized she had said the wrong thing. She quickly changed her words, "No, no. Nothing happened. Nothing happened to anyone."

Then there is.

From the hesitation in the beginning, to the determination in her expression, Xiao Ruyue was completely sure.

Initially, she did not care about it, but after seeing that Yuwen He was not back yet and seeing that Lu Yi's attitude was so weird, she could not help but be suspicious.

In the middle of the standoff, someone pushed the door open.

The first to enter was Yin Lin, followed by Yuwen He, but he seemed to be in a semi-conscious state, supported by Fang Weiyong and Vice Commander Liu Jingtao.

He placed Yuwen He on the bed and Liu Jingtao went out.

Yin Lin closed the door, and suddenly three people jumped in one after the other. They were Chong Yue, Chong Yang and Thirteen, whom she had not seen for a long time.

When Qingqing saw Thirteen, she called out in a low voice, "Master."

Thirteen also responded with a soft "En". Although they were master and disciple, they were completely different.

Xiao Ruyue looked at Fang Weiyong and Yin Lin, then looked at Chong Yue and the other two. The person whom Lu Yi didn't want to see the most, didn't react at all.

So many people had appeared in such a large formation.

From the looks of it, what happened tonight should not be a small matter.

Xiao Ruyue sat on the edge of the bed. Yuwen He's face was flushed red and his consciousness was a little unfocused. However, the moment he saw her, he couldn't help but hold her hand tightly.

Xiao Ruyue wanted to retract her hand, but he held on tighter, causing her wrist to hurt.

Normally, no matter how overbearing and impatient he was, he would never hurt her.

Xiao Ruyue clenched her teeth, and turned to look at Yin Lin. "What exactly happened here?"

"Your Majesty went up to the glazed pavilion."

He took the initiative to go?

Xiao Ruyue's brows tightly knitted, and closely questioned: "Just how many things are you two hiding from me?"

Yin Lin did not utter a word.

Thirteen's face was a little anxious, but she shot a glance at Xiao Ruyue, her gaze somewhat disdainful. "So it turns out that you don't know anything, it's a waste for Master to do all this for you."

"How dare you!" Xiao Ruyue was currently on the verge of becoming angry, so when did Thirteen say this, Xiao Ruyue scolded him on the spot, "I didn't ask you a question, when is it going to be your turn to blabber?"

Thirteen did not expect Xiao Ruyue to suddenly attack, and was startled.

"In the past, it was only because I didn't want to argue with you that you gave up. It's best if you speak and act at different times. Upper, lower, yes, no! "

Xiao Ruyue's tone became a bit colder, and a layer of frost formed in her eyes.

Yuwen He grabbed her hand with a lot of force. Xiao Ruyue was in pain but he couldn't let go, so he could only let him hold onto her.

Chong Yue hesitated for a moment, then pressed Yuwen He's sleeping point, causing him to fall asleep.

"Yin Lin, at this point, do you still want to hide the truth from me?" Xiao Ruyue's watery eyes were currently cold and chilling. She stared at Yin Lin and asked, "Why is Your Majesty looking for Ye Haitang? Is it because I am?"

Yin Lin's lips moved a little, she originally wanted to explain, but when the words reached her mouth, she did not know how to do so.

The empress was as astute and intelligent as ever. It was impossible for her to keep a lie from her.

"Empress, His Majesty fell into Imperial Consort Ye's trap because he was trying to get the antidote for you."

In other words, Yuwen He had been poisoned by the "One Night Spring Festival Gala"

Xiao Ruyue's heart sank, and her stomach suddenly hurt.

She subconsciously held on to her lower abdomen, but the pain suddenly became intense. Unable to sit still, her body went soft and fell onto Yuwen He's body.

"Empress!" The expressions of Yin Lin, Qingqing, and Qingyi greatly changed as they hurriedly rushed forward.

Xiao Ruyue grabbed Yin Lin's hand and fiercely said: "Where's Big Sister Ya Yin? Where is she? What poison could cause her to be helpless! "

With that, Liangqiu Yayin entered the room through the window.

It was clear that she had always been there, but to be exact, she did not appear. She did not know how to face Xiao Ruyue.

"Min Er, I —"

"Sister Ya Yin will stay, everyone else will leave!" Xiao Ruyue could not care about the pain in her stomach, and ordered coldly.

The pain in her stomach rendered her unable to speak.

It was as if something was stirring and biting inside.

Her head was covered in sweat and her face was already pale.

This was not the first time she had experienced the taste of imminent death, but the first time she felt that life was better than death.

The others all left. Some went to the door, some went to the window, and some jumped out through it. Even Qingqing followed Thirteen out.

Only Yuwen He, Xiao Ruyue and Liangqiu Yayin were left in the room.

Liangqiu Yayin took out a medicine bottle and poured out two pills, one of which she forcefully fed to the unconscious Yuwen He.

A pill was placed in Xiao Ruyue's mouth, which connected to her pulse, and she said worriedly: "The Gu has already acted up, I also … …"

"What Gu is it? How can it leave you helpless?" Xiao Ruyue gritted her teeth and asked.

The severe pain in his stomach was somewhat alleviated by Big Sister Ya Yin's medicine, but it was still incomparably painful.

Her consciousness was almost at its limit.

Liangqiu Yayin looked at her deeply, and sighed helplessly. "It's the Blood Transformation Gu."

Xiao Ruyue was like a bolt of lightning.

The Blood Transformation Gu was fed to its owner's flesh and blood, a molecular mother Gu. Once a Gu was used by the owner, it could only be removed by the user. Any method of forcefully expelling the Gu would result in a backlash from the Gu worm in the body, killing it instantly.

"These two days, I've been searching for a way to remove the Gu, but it's too risky. Your husband isn't willing and I don't dare to try!"

"Sorry Yue'er, I don't know when that woman Ye Haitang planted the parasite on you, but I didn't discover it earlier. I'm not saying I don't want to tell you the truth. "

"We couldn't think of a way, so your husband suggested that he go ask Ye Haitang for the antidote. If he could remove the Gu, then this child could be saved. If he couldn't, then he could only be sacrificed!

Although Liangqiu Yayin did not manage to say the rest of her words, Xiao Ruyue was very clear about it.

The Blood Transformation Gu, she had a child Gu, the mother Gu was in Ye Haitang's body, only Ye Haitang could remove the parasite to save her.

Yuwen He clearly knew that there was a Spring Festival Gala on Ye Haitang's hand, and that Ye Haitang was eyeing him covetously, yet he still did it for her.
