It's quite a coincidence, Jiu Tang secretly sighed, he just walked back not long ago.

The carriage drove smoothly into the palace and headed quickly towards the queen's bedroom.

Jiu Tang originally wanted to let Zhu Zhu jump off halfway and take the opportunity to sneak into the concubine selection field. But suddenly, I felt a strange aura coming from the direction of the inner hall.

Jiutang immediately stopped Zhuzhu and planned to follow her again.

Arriving in front of the queen's palace gate, the second princess jumped out of the carriage. Raising his head high, he still couldn't hide his excitement.

However, seeing the main hall that was still tightly closed, a bit of disappointment appeared on his face: "Is the Queen still sick?"

The maid who watched the door rushed forward and said: "In response to the princess, the queen is still not feeling well these days and just fell asleep. Otherwise, please wait here for a while, and I will go in and take a look."

The second princess squatted on the ground bored, not caring about the image of a royal princess.

The king's father and the queen were married. Due to the huge power of the queen's family, they had no choice but to marry the queen. Three years after the mother entered the palace, she had the prince's brother, and soon she had her.

Although the father does not like the mother, the prince's brother has shown a strong talent for cultivation since he was a child, and the father's current sons are all ineffective, so the prince's brother's current treatment is not bad.

but.....

Hey.

The second princess looked at the closed palace door, picked up a branch and scribbled on the ground in boredom. As the only prince now, the prince's brother is naturally doing well. But the queen mother is very different from her.

Well... there is still no shortage of food and clothing, but it is a bit deserted.

When my father was old for a long time, he wouldn't even visit his mother for several months. Her mother's family gradually declined. About a year ago, her mother suddenly fell ill for some unknown reason. There are one or two personal maids, and even she can only see her mother once in a long time.

She had saved money for a long time and bought a new dress. I wanted to put it on and show it to my mother, but I didn't expect that the palace door was still closed today.

The second princess sighed, sniffed, stood up, raised her chin, and said to the other maid who was guarding the door: "I remember, I still have some things to do. Well, you take care of the queen, and I will leave first. ”

Just as the second princess was about to turn around and leave, she heard the maid who had just entered to greet her come out and stop her: "Second princess, wait. The queen has just woken up. Please come in."

The second princess turned around, with surprise that could not be hidden on her face: "Really?"

She hurriedly gathered the broken hair around her ears, lifted up the hem of her skirt that was slightly dragging the floor, happily pushed through the door, and entered the palace with the beads on her skirt.

Xiaoyu asked quietly: "Master, is this the evil spirit you are talking about?"

In the chaotic space, Ayan was sitting on a dry tree stump, leaning against Zhuzhu, blinking at Jiutang.

Zhuzhu sneaked out to play a few days ago. She ate some grass and her strength increased inexplicably. Although weapon spirits are not like animal pets, they have specific cultivation levels. But Zhuzhu's current strength is probably at the low level.

As the level of beads gradually increases, the chaotic space is no longer pitch black, and some hazy light slowly appears. The Chaos Bead can form a world of its own, but now the Bead is still too weak and can only form this small desolate land.

Jiu Tang nodded lightly, noncommittal. Even the weapon spirits who are not very sensitive to the breath can feel it, so one can imagine how strong the evil spirit is in it.

Coals are placed everywhere in the room, adding to the warmth in the underground palace. There is a huge stove in the center of the dormitory, and wisps of green smoke are floating out from it. It is a kind of soothing incense that makes people feel light physically and mentally.

The hall was extremely quiet, the curtains were closed, and the room was gray. Only shallow coughs could be heard from the inner hall from time to time.

The second princess walked inside gently. Seeing her mother lying on the bed with a pale face, her eyes suddenly turned red.

"Mother!" The second princess staggered a few steps forward and threw herself in front of the queen's bed. "Why does mother look so bad? Is it because the servants below didn't take good care of her? Has the doctor come to see her?"

The queen coughed again, turned her head and covered the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief. There was a bright red blood stain on the handkerchief.

He put his hand on his chest to calm his breathing, forced himself to sit up straight, and gently touched the second princess's head with his hand: "I've seen it, the doctor said that it will be fine after a few more days of good rest."

The second princess's eyes were red with tears in her eyes: "But the queen mother looks even worse than she did a few days ago."

"Xiaoxue, don't cry, mother is fine. She won't look good if she cries." The queen smiled and pinched her face, then looked at her with some surprise, "Xiaoxue's dress today is so beautiful. My Xue'er, I’ve really grown up.”

The second princess burst into laughter and pulled the queen to show her various gadgets brought from outside.

"Mother, where do you think that monster is? Is it the queen?" Ayan asked.

But it doesn't look like it. Although the evil spirit is strong in this dormitory, this queen is indeed a human being. Apart from anything else, his love for the second princess cannot be faked.

Jiutang shook his head: "No, but the demon must have a close relationship with the queen. To be more precise, he has been hiding in the palace."

"What's going on at the inn?" Xiaoyu scooped out a handful of spiritual spring water from the Hongmeng sky and sprinkled it on the ground in front of the dry place. I rubbed the vine happily and buried the roots in the slightly moist ground. It was happy to bury it wherever it happened.

Jiutang knocked on Xiaoyu's head and was speechless: "How do I know? Aren't we always together?"

She is not a god, how can she know with these fragmentary clues at present.

"Mother, the prince's brother chooses a concubine. Xiaoxue feels something is wrong..." After talking about her own affairs, the second princess suddenly thought of the prince.

The queen's expression froze, and she coughed twice again.

The maid standing guard outside heard the noise and quickly brought a glass of warm water with herbs in it.

The second princess worriedly took the water, handed it to the queen, and patted her back to cheer her up.

The queen calmed down and said calmly: "The prince...the queen mother can't control him, just let him do whatever he wants."

"But if the prince behaves like this, he will lose the support of the people sooner or later..."

"Xiaoxue." The queen suddenly stopped her. When talking about the prince, the queen became particularly indifferent.

Jiu Tang felt something was wrong. Logically speaking, the prince and the second princess were both the biological children of the queen, so they shouldn't be treated so obviously differently.

"Okay, Xiaoxue." At the mention of the prince, the queen suppressed the flash of disgust on her face, quickly suppressed it, and patted the second princess's hand.

"The Queen Mother just feels that the prince is not young now, and he is the future king of the country. He has his own considerations in what he does, so we should not interfere too much."

The second princess frowned, although she felt something was wrong. But he still nodded: "I understand, Queen Mother. But Xiaoxue hasn't seen the prince brother for a long time..."

"The prince is the crown prince. Now he has to learn how to govern the country and practice diligently. It's normal to be busy. If Xiaoxue is bored, the queen mother will assign some maids to you to play with you, okay?"

The queen seemed a little tired and didn't want to talk anymore, so she closed her eyes.

The second princess bit her lip, wanted to say something but held it back: "Then...well, mother. Mother, please rest first. Xiaoxue will come to see you later."

The second princess didn't know what to say, so she reluctantly got up and turned around to leave. Zhuzhu took advantage of this moment and rolled down from the second princess's skirt and landed at the foot of the bed. This is the perfect place to see the scene in front of the bed and hide yourself under the hanging tablecloth.

The queen opened her eyes and looked at the leaving figure of the second princess with gentle eyes.

Sighing softly: "This child."

"Don't worry, Ash. It won't take long. This Ruli country will be ours." A man walked out from behind the curtain, his aura slightly gloomy.

His tone was low, as if he was suppressing something.

Jiutang stood up suddenly in the chaotic space: "That's him!"

It was exactly the same as the atmosphere in the inn.

"Axu, wait for me. Just a little closer, I will be able to completely refine the emperor's body, and then we will be able to fully control the Ruli Kingdom. At that time, Xiaoxue will be the crown princess."
