Changsun Tao stretched out his finger and gently picked it. A silk thread, almost invisible to the naked eye, was connected from Emperor Yuanwu's heart to the fingertips of the dancing girl.

At this moment, Emperor Yuanwu completely lost consciousness, with only a slight pulse beating.

"Sister, Your Majesty has been assassinated. Please work with Duke Yue to control the people in the main hall. The concubine and I will move the people back to the back hall first."

The eldest princess nodded solemnly: "Don't worry."

Changsun Tao cut off the silver wire and ordered in a deep voice: "Jinwu Guards and Qilin Guards are under martial law immediately! No one is allowed to enter or leave the palace until His Majesty's condition is stable."

Everyone looked at each other in horror, but with the eldest princess and the Duke of Yue in the town, there would be no chaos.

Eunuch Lu immediately summoned several close followers, and together with Chang Sun Tao, they carried Emperor Yuanwu into the back hall.

Princess Fu gave Prince Fu a punch, and Prince Fu immediately stepped forward and followed her, hugging her plump belly: "Wait for me, my king."

Lu Mingyu patted Princess Zhenli's hand: "Zhenli, go to the princess first."

Princess Zhenli nodded: "Little aunt, be careful in everything."

Today was a formal occasion. Lu Mingyu was dressed in grand and luxurious clothes. It was very inconvenient for her to walk, so she had to hold up her skirt and follow quickly.

Inside the apse.

Emperor Yuanwu was lying on the bed, his face was ashen, and his breath was as thin as a thread, as if he would die at any time.

Lu Mingyu took his pulse and inquired carefully. After a long time, he shook his head and said, "I'm afraid this is beyond the scope of what we can handle. Call Miss Lingling quickly."

"The slave is going!"

Lu Xing had already been scared to death when Emperor Yuanwu's accident happened, but as a chamberlain who had seen big scenes, he was still able to hold his own.

But when he ran out to find Lan Lingling, his empty and messy footsteps showed the panic and worry in his heart.

Fortunately, Emperor Yuanwu made an appointment with Lan Lingling to enjoy the moon with Lan Lingling after the banquet was over. At this moment, Lan Lingling was eating mooncakes in the palace.

"Miss Lingling!"

"Miss Lingling!"

"girl……"

As soon as Lu Xing entered the palace, he started shouting in panic.

Lan Lingling rolled her eyes, quickly threw down the mooncake in her hand, and got angry at Eunuch Lu who broke in through the door: "What are you shouting for, mourning!"

Eunuch Lu gasped for air, pinched the orchid and reported: "Oh, my aunt, you can be sure now, His Majesty is being assassinated, you go quickly... go... slower, maybe..."

As he spoke, Eunuch Lu kept wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeves.

However, there was no sign of Lan Lingling in front of him, only a plate of overturned mooncakes that fell to the ground and fell into pieces.

Lan Lingling ran all the way and soon arrived at Emperor Yuanwu's bed.

Before she even touched Emperor Yuanwu, the small bottle on her waist was trembling.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she asked with a horrified look on her face: "Have you ever used Yan Gu? Have you?"

Lu Mingyu shook his head.

At this time, Lan Lingling's eyes were soaked in tears.

She threw herself in front of Emperor Yuanwu's bed and scolded her with sobs: "Are the Qilin Guards and Jinwu Guards all dead? And what did you, the great uncle, do for a living? With so many guards and layers of defenses, A Ce was still poisoned by this poison." Tricks! You are so useless!"

Eunuch Lu was so frightened that his heart almost jumped out of his chest. He just wanted to tell Lan Lingling to calm down, but was stopped by Chang Sun Tao.

Old King Fu was obviously displeased, but for the safety of his great-great-grandson, he still held his hands and pretended to be mute.

Lu Mingyu asked: "Miss Lingling, what's going on?"

Lan Lingling held Emperor Yuanwu's hand and couldn't stop her tears: "Someone planted a poison in his heart. Once the poison takes root and sprouts, he will die!"

"Fortunately, I gave him my Gu Pill, otherwise he wouldn't have had a few days to live. I'm glad you didn't use the power of the Gu, otherwise... it would only hasten his demise faster."

Changsun Tao frowned: "Gu? What kind of Gu?"

Lan Lingling shook her head: "I don't know. This Gu is like an unhatched egg. It can be any egg, and it can hatch out anything, except for the derived Gu."

Lu Mingyu asked: "You mean that there is great uncertainty about the poison in Your Majesty's body, and no one knows what kind of poison it will turn into in the end?"

Lan Lingling first rolled out two large tears, and then nodded with choked sobs: "The poison is on his heart. If he is not careful, it may cause his heart veins to rupture, and I can't save him."

Eunuch Lu collapsed to the ground with a plop, raised his sleeves and began to wipe away tears.

After all, he was the master he brought up since he was a child, and he had deep feelings for him for more than ten years.

Old King Fu was no longer calm, and his rosy face suddenly turned pale.

Lan Lingling stared at him with tears in her eyes: "Stop it, only I can cry for him!"

Eunuch Lu immediately didn't dare to move.

Lu Mingyu and Chang Sun Tao looked at each other, and both understood what the other did not say - it was probably the handiwork of the fortune teller, and the purpose was probably to lure the tiger away from the mountain and send Miss Lingling away.

Sure enough, the next moment, Lan Lingling spoke: "For the current plan, the only way is to take him to southern Xinjiang to meet my master. With the help of several of their elders, there may be a chance of survival, but I am not sure about the master and the elders." Are you willing to help?"

Who doesn't know that Lan Lingling has always been heartless.

How could it be a trivial matter that could make her cry or panic?

It seems that Emperor Yuanwu is really in trouble.

Lu Mingyu asked her: "Miss Lingling, are there any conditions for the elders to save people?"

Lan Lingling shook her head: "Southern Xinjiang people don't like silver and treasures. It's okay to say that the master is kind, but some elders have a terrible temper. I..."

Changsun Tao pondered for a moment and immediately made a decision: "I know that the wish of several elders is that Great Qin can return freedom to Southern Xinjiang and stop leading troops to invade in an attempt to incorporate Southern Xinjiang into its territory."

"I compiled a letter and sent it to several elders, and ordered people to send it over quickly. As long as they are willing to enter the palace to save His Majesty, Da Qin will sign an alliance with them, officially recognizing that Southern Xinjiang is an independent country, and agreeing not to mutually agree. Invasion."

Lan Lingling was extremely shocked. This was the wish of the Miao people in southern Xinjiang for generations, but she never thought that His Highness Taishu would be willing to offer such conditions for A Ce.

She couldn't believe it: "Your Highness, can you make the decision?"

Changsun Tao solemnly nodded: "Great Qin has no ambition to dominate Southern Xinjiang. The reason for the constant fighting is because rogue bandits from Southern Xinjiang often invade the borders of Great Qin. I can make the decision on this matter."

Lu Mingyu was a little worried: "Is there enough time?"

Lan Lingling nodded: "I will find a way to stabilize Ace's situation until news comes from southern Xinjiang. If the master and several elders refuse to come, I will take Ace back."

"Even if the saint of southern Xinjiang doesn't do it, I will save A Ce. He has not yet reached the crown, he is still very young, and there are still many things that have not been done. He should not end his life like this."

Lu Mingyu sighed: "Zhaohua, it seems safer to send Ling out."

Changsun Tao nodded: "Well, I will make arrangements immediately. The most important thing at the moment is to appease the ministers. Otherwise, if the news of His Majesty's assassination spreads, people in the court will be panicked, and there may be changes in the border areas."

Lu Mingyu said: "I will invite Feng Xiang into the palace and ask him to unite with all the officials to ask you to supervise the country."

Old King Fu said quickly: "Silly girl, why don't you go and say something to those villains? I'll go ahead. As the head of the clan, I make such a request when His Majesty is unable to manage the government. Who can say anything to me?"
