Hairpin Phoenix

   Chapter 443 Storm (1)

  Shouning Palace.

   Li Hao lay upright on the bed, his handsome face as white as paper, without the slightest bit of blood.

   Zhou Yuanshi sat on the edge of the bed, holding the gold needle with a solemn expression, and stabbed it quickly. The moment the slender golden needle pierced the skin, Li Hao's brow seemed to move.

   Meng Yunluo, whose eyes were swollen from crying, was refreshed: "Your Highness, Your Highness!"

   was so excited that he almost jumped over.

   Zhou Yuan was a little helpless, and reminded in a low voice: "The third prince and concubine, the concubine, is worried about His Highness's body, and the ministers understand it. However, the ministers are administering needles to His Highness, and they should not be negligent. Please be calm."

  No matter how much temper Meng Yunluo has, she can't have a seizure now, so she choked and sat further away. His eyes were still fixed on his unconscious husband.

   If she knew it would turn out like this, she shouldn't have said those words out of her mouth!

   In case Li Hao is in a hurry, what will happen to her and Sister Zhen?

   Also, Li Hao's actions today are completely opposed to Donggong. What will happen in the future?

  The more she thought about it, the more terrified she felt. She covered her eyes with her hands and wept bitterly.

   Zhou Yuan: "..."

  Does the third princess understand whether it is necessary to be quiet when giving acupuncture?

  Zhou Yuan Envoy resisted the urge to open his mouth to stab people, calmed his mind, and continued to give needles.

   After half an hour, the Zhou Yuan envoy did the acupuncture. He wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve and put all the gold needles in the needle bag. Meng Yunluo, who had tears in her eyes, asked in a low voice, "Envoy Zhou, when will His Highness wake up?"

   Zhou Yuan's envoy replied in a low voice: "The third highness is so sad, so irritated that he faints. I have already given needles to his highness. When will I wake up, I can't say now."

  It's all nonsense.

   Meng Yunluo glared at Zhou Yuanshi angrily: "I don't want to hear this. I just ask you, when will your Highness wake up?"

   Zhou Yuan made a face ashamed: "This minister is incompetent, please ask the third prince and concubine to call another imperial doctor to come and see your highness."

  Meng Yunluo: "..."

In the    Tai Hospital, Zhou Yuanshi was the most skilled in medicine. Even Zhou Yuan's envoy can't do anything, so what's the use of other imperial physicians?

  Meng Yunluo was choked with a choked sentence, both annoyed and helpless, lying on the bedside and crying again.

  …

   At this time, Emperor Yongjia and Queen Qiao were sitting opposite each other.

   Queen Qiao's expression was solemn, and Emperor Yongjia's face was even more solemn.

   Neither of the Empress and Empress said a word, and the palace servants who accompanied them all lowered their heads, not even daring to let out the air. I don't know how long it took, and a servant came in to report: "Report to the emperor, the king of Dongping County has come to see you."

  Emperor Yongjia nodded slightly: "Let him come in."

  No matter what, Concubine Su served on the pillow table for many years and gave birth to two sons for him. When I suddenly heard the news of Concubine Su's death today, Emperor Yongjia's mood was definitely not much better.

   Queen Qiao quickly stood up: "Chen and concubine take a break for a while."

  Emperor Yongjia glanced at Queen Qiao and said nothing. After Queen Qiao withdrew, the King of Dongping County stepped in and saluted: "I have seen the emperor."

  Emperor Yongjia said solemnly, "The fact that Concubine Su poisoned and murdered Brother Jue was a case you investigated. Now you are reporting the truth and you must not hide anything."

   The Duke of Dongping County was prepared and submitted the case first. The case file contains detailed records and transcripts of all confessions. The process of investigating the case is not too complicated to say, but with a single stick of incense sticks, it is clearly explained.

  Emperor Yongjia's expression was fluctuating, his eyes were complicated, and he fixedly fell on the face of Dongping County King, and suddenly asked: "Why did Concubine Su want to harm Brother Kui?"

  The Duke of Dongping is the cousin of Emperor Yongjia. He has been running around behind Emperor Yongjia since he was a child. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is as close as a brother.

When Emperor Yongjia asked such a question, only the Duke of Dongping County dared to answer bluntly: "The third prince made great contributions in the first battle of Yan and Chu, while Concubine Su was complacent, she gave birth to her ambitions. She was stupid and thought that she had harmed Brother Kui. Son, you can make the East Palace dismount. In this way, the third prince will have a chance to win the throne. What a stupid poisonous woman!"

  Emperor Yongjia's face was very ugly.

The Duke of Dongping didn't care what Emperor Yongjia looked like, and continued to say: "The emperor never saw the appearance of Brother Kui after being poisoned. Such a small child was tossed and killed half of his life. The minister saw it twice, and he felt in his heart. It's not the taste either."

   "If someone dares to harm my son like this, I will chop her up with my own hands!"

  Emperor Yongjia: "..."

Emperor Yongjia's heart surged, and he glared at the Duke of Dongping: "Concubine Su made a mistake, even if she wants to be executed, she should wait for me to come back, let Ah Hao see her for the last time, and then let her close her eyes and return to the west. Filial piety to his mother. How could he bear it when he heard the bad news suddenly."

  The Duke of Dongping sighed: "The emperor's intentions are understood by the ministers. However, the matter has come to this point, and the ministers have to persuade the emperor. Concubine Su is dead, and it is worthless to create a gap between her and Donggong."

   "As for the third prince, it is unavoidable to grieve excessively for a while. After a long time, it will naturally be put down slowly."

  Emperor Yongjia felt like there was a block in his heart, and it was by no means something that could be solved by a few fluttering words.

   He rubbed his aching forehead: "I have to be quiet. Okay, you step back first!"

   The Duke of Dongping resigned respectfully.

   After leaving the Shouning Palace, the Duke of Dongping took a deep breath.

  His Royal Highness the Prince made a good gesture and let Li Yan enter the East Palace as a subordinate official. He couldn't help but accept this favor. This kind of favor is repaid today.

  …

   What happened in the palace can't be hidden from those who care.

   When it was dark, the news reached the Xingyang Palace.

   Lu Lin was both startled and angry.

  The poisonous woman of the Su Clan! It's so cheap for her to die like this!

   "Foster father calms down." Lu Fei whispered quickly: "Although Brother Jue has suffered a lot, now he is safe and sound. That poisonous woman has been executed by the fourth sister herself, and it has been almost half a year since she was buried in the loess."

  Lu Lin snorted coldly: "The third prince made a big noise at the palace banquet and fainted on the spot. The emperor loves his son, and if he thinks about Concubine Su who was executed, it is inevitable that he will take out his anger on the prince and concubine."

   "I'm going into the palace now to see the emperor. How can my daughter suffer such grievances!"

  Lu Fei hurriedly advised: "It's already dark now, and the palace gate has been locked. It's not too late to enter the palace tomorrow."

   "I can't wait for a moment!" As soon as Lu Lin got angry, no one could persuade him.

  Lu Fei had to retreat and ask for the next best thing: "I will accompany my adoptive father to the palace."

   As he spoke, he looked at Shen Lan apologetically.

  The husband and wife meet again after a long absence, but tonight he can't stay in the house to accompany her.

  Shen Lan smiled slightly, hugged her sturdy son and said softly, "You can just rest assured!"

   Lu Lin, father and son, rushed into the palace all the way.

The    palace gate has indeed been locked. Outside the scarlet palace gate, there was another familiar figure. Lu Lin's eyes flickered, and there was a hint of coldness on the corner of his mouth.
