Chapter 359 - So it was this way
After Ran Ke fell asleep again, Xiao Qianhan got up and walked out of the chamber.
The moment she walked out, everyone in the courtyard turned to look at her.
Xiao Qianhan replied softly, "The Empress is fine."
"There's nothing else? Great! That's great! " A few red-eyed court ladies hugged each other happily as they jumped. The Empress was finally fine!
After waiting for so long and feeling apprehensive for so long, the Empress had finally recovered from her illness!
Ye Jun walked to Xiao Qianhan's side, her expression a little dark, "Qianhan, some things are even worse than what we imagined."
Xiao Qianhan was not surprised, and nodded, "Mn, I understand." After painstakingly plotting Ran Ke's natural death, this matter was indeed more serious than she had imagined.
The two of them sat in the courtyard, the servant immediately poured tea for the two of them, and then stood far away respectfully, one of the palace attendants even went into the palace to look at Ran Ke, only to realize that Ran Ke's face was no longer as pale as it was before, and had started to turn red instead. Immediately after coming out, he told the other palace maids about this matter. Everyone looked at Xiao Qianhan with respect.
"Qianhan, this was what happened half a year ago …" Ye Jun slowly explained and briefly explained what had happened in the past half year to Xiao Qianhan.
Half a year ago, on a certain day, Murong Chen suddenly favored Du Xiawei and from that day onwards, Ran Ke was completely forgotten. Even if someone were to mention Ran Ke in front of him, Murong Chen would make them shut their mouths in impatience, to the point that it would affect several people's lives. At the beginning, Ran Ke wanted to ask further about the reason, but every time she wanted to see Murong Chen, the palace maids would block her path.
Since half a year ago, Ran Ke had never seen him again. And Du Xiawei quickly seized the power from Ran Ke's hands. In an instant, Ran Ke became the Queen who only had her false name.
Even though Ran Ke had suddenly become severely ill, Murong Chen, who knew of her condition, did not react at all.
Everything had happened in such a strange yet realistic manner.
The people of the palace said that even though Ran Ke had lost Murong Chen's doting, he did not fail to recover. She still wore a smile on her face every day, and even when everyone was ridiculing him, she did not panic. Even when they were ill in bed, day after day, they had never cried or despaired, but they still consoled the people of the palace.
"Suddenly, he was cold and heartless to Ran Ke. It seems that there is something behind this. Could it be that Du Xiawei had placed a Emotional Gu on Murong Chen? That's why Murong Chen suddenly had such a huge change? " Ye Jun said.
Xiao Qianhan shook her head, "Those who have been infected with the Emotional Gu, other than those who have been infected by the parasite, have nothing else to do. Murong Chen did not interfere with the affairs of the nation for the past half year, which does not fit the characteristics of the Emotional Gu in the slightest. "
"Could it really be that he betrayed Ran Ke? In an instant, you became so cold-blooded and heartless to this extent. " Ye Jun and Murong Chen could be said to be childhood sweethearts. Murong Chen had already liked Ran Ke a long time ago, and after the two of them had finally gotten to know each other, they had lovingly loved each other for a few years. Murong Chen should not be so heartless all of a sudden. Most of the men were fickle in love, with a new partner, they forgot their old ones. Murong Chen was afraid that she really liked the new and hated the old.
Xiao Qianhan was expressionless as she asked softly, "Where is Du Xiawei?"
"Du Xiawei? According to what the palace maids had told him, half a year ago, Du Xiawei had always been unpampered, but she had never competed for a favor. Judging from her previous performance, she wasn't someone with a scheming mind at all. The entire harem was in Du Xiawei's hands. If not for Du Xiawei's instructions, how could those imperial physicians possibly ignore the harem after a country? It was clear that they wanted to watch Ran Ke die with their eyes wide open. Du Xiawei is definitely not a good person. " Ye Jun half squinted, and said with a deep voice.
Xiao Qianhan nodded her head, his eyes filled with a cold light, and his eyes filled with killing intent: "Take it slow, no one can escape."
Suddenly, Xiao Qianhan looked outside the purple palace's door, "There's movement."
"Who is Xiao Dan?" Xiao Qianhan asked a few palace servants who were standing not far away respectfully.
Almost at the same time, he answered, "Xiao Dan is the esteemed wangfei's personal maid, she begged the imperial concubine four hours ago."
Xiao Qianhan's expression sank, she gently waved her hand towards the door of the purple palace Palace, and the formless barrier instantly disappeared.
Immediately after, a series of knocks came from outside the palace gates. However, the person knocking on the door did not want to alarm anyone, so the voice was very soft. "Yun'er, Wandering, are you there? It's me, I'm Xiao Dan. I'm back, open the door for me. "
"It's Sister Xiao Dan!" Hearing the sound outside the door, everyone immediately ran over and opened the tightly shut door.
When they saw Xiao Dan lying on the ground, all of their expressions changed greatly, "Sister Xiao Dan! What's the matter with you? "
Xiao Dan lay in front of the door, his head covered in sweat. Her face was extremely pale, and she barely managed to force out a smile as she shook his head and replied: "I'm fine."
There was once a person who had been scolded by a staff because he went to beg the emperor. Seeing Xiao Dan's current state, she clearly understood what was going on, and immediately cried, "The imperial concubine is really too heartless!"
Xiao Dan powerlessly shook her head, "It's the emperor. Imperial Concubine hasn't come out to see me. "
The few of them immediately fell silent and bit their lips. After helping Xiao Dan up, they walked towards the courtyard.
Xiao Dan walked with great difficulty while tears streamed down her face: "Don't ever tell the Empress that if she asks about me when she wakes up, tell her that I've suddenly had a cold these past two days and that I've only been able to rest in bed. I'll wait until my sickness recovers before serving the Empress."
"Sister Xiao Dan, don't worry about the Empress, the Empress is fine. Someone saved the Empress." Ye Zichen spoke slowly and excitedly.
Xiao Dan was stunned, "Someone saved the Empress? "Who is it?"
"Xiao Qianhan, Miss Xiao, she saved the Empress." The other person quickly said.
Xiao Dan suddenly noticed two more people in the courtyard, and immediately looked towards the two people with a startled expression. Miss Xiao?
Xiao Qianhan had already gotten up. After a few steps, she walked in front of Xiao Dan, "Swallow this pill and your injuries will immediately heal."
Xiao Dan took the pill from Xiao Qianhan's hand in a daze, and pierced it down.
After a while, Xiao Dan suddenly realized that the pain that she had been sweating profusely was no longer painful! When she reached out to touch it, there actually wasn't any pain! Alright! It was actually done! This was the magic of medicinal pills! She would never have thought that she would be lucky enough to consume such a pure pill in her entire life!
"Miss Xiao, you're finally here! Our Empress has suffered a lot! " After Xiao Dan finished his pleasant surprise, she immediately turned to Xiao Qianhan and said this.
Xiao Qianhan nodded, and turned around to look at her quarters. Ran Ke had already woken up.
