Reborn Queen

After hearing Gillian's answer, An Rui narrowed his eyes and stared at Gillian's slightly trembling body: "What happened just now, tell me the truth!"

"Yes." Gillian moved her body when she heard An Rui's words, but because of An Rui's attitude, the panic in her heart was reduced a lot. In the eyes of the emperor, the empress is still very important, otherwise she would not listen In the name of King Jing, I still have to insist on asking the truth.

Thinking of this, Gillian took a deep breath: "Since King Jing came down last time, because of the emperor's order, His Highness has not come again, but today His Highness came again for some reason, and the guards in the palace followed the order. The emperor's order stopped His Highness King Jing, but His Highness King Jing refused to leave, and finally His Highness King Jing's people clashed with the guards, and they bumped into the empress while pushing and shoving."

Gillian was also very surprised by An Chengji's actions today, because what An Chengji did today can be said to be undisguised, and his arrogance was very thorough. in the eyes.

Sure enough, after An Rui heard Gillian's narration, anger began to radiate from his body, and it became more and more obvious. The palace people who were relieved because of An Rui's attitude just now gradually tensed up again. The cold sweat on the head was accumulating more and more, accompanied by the sound from time to time in the delivery room, it made the people in the room tremble even more.

"Shunde," An Rui called Li Shunde behind him without turning his head after taking a deep breath.

"Your Majesty." Li Shunde took a step forward, leaned over, and lowered his head. He knew that the Emperor should have something to order at this time.

"Go and call King Jing to the imperial study." An Rui waved his hand as he spoke, signaling Li Shunde to do it now.

"Yes." Li Shunde has been with An Rui for many years. When An Rui called him just now, he had a rough guess in his heart, so he is not surprised now. After agreeing, he turned and walked out the door.

After Li Shunde left, An Rui didn't move. He still sat in the position just now, listening to Lu Shuyi's heart-piercing cry in the delivery room, his eyes darkened, and he didn't know what was going on in his heart.

"Your Highness, did you say that Concubine Mei gave birth prematurely because of you?" Liu Yuan rubbed his forehead as he spoke. He was still thinking yesterday that His Royal Highness had passed away for so long, and it was not easy for His Highness to bear it all the time. Progress, who knew His Highness would give him such a big "surprise" today?It was nothing short of a surprise!

"Yes... yes... this king... this king didn't think about it at the time..." Rao An Chengji is also a little scared now, and there is a slight tremor in his voice. After this kind of thing happened, it would definitely not be this reaction. Not only would he not be afraid, but he would also be confident.

However, during this period of time, An Chengji has deeply realized the importance of An Rui's attitude. Because of An Rui's unclear attitude, the courtiers who were originally on his side also began to keep a distance from him, and even faintly rejected him. .

Coupled with the fact that An Jingxing's people fell silent for some reason, and seemed to be indifferent to who the crown prince was, An Chengji was now almost useless in the court, even a little helpless.

An Chengji didn't know why at the time, he would do such a thing, and his original intention was not to do anything to Lu Shuyi, but when he came back to his senses, he could only see Lu Shuyi lying on the ground, beside him The maids in the court shouted that the empress is not good, and the Changxin Palace was in chaos. Seeing that the situation was not right, An Chengji sneaked away.

After returning home, the more An Chengji thought about it, the more restless he became, and finally couldn't help it, and stepped into Liu Yuan's residence.This is the first time An Chengji has visited Liu Yuan's residence in the past month, and now he and Liu Yuan are no longer as close as they used to be.

"What happened at that time, Your Highness, let's talk about it carefully first, don't worry." Liu Yuan felt something was wrong when he heard An Chengji's rough description. It's so stupid, it's impossible for someone like An Chengji to do such a thing.

Hearing Liu Yuan's words, An Chengji took a sip of tea and calmed down a little: "I was passing by Changxin Palace and saw Concubine Mei in the courtyard. I just wanted to go up and warn her..."

"Your Highness didn't do it yourself?" Liu Yuan listened to An Chengji's description and analyzed it carefully. Now that something has happened, he can only find a way to minimize the impact and consequences.

The best way to deal with it is to stay at that time and get rid of the crime as soon as possible, but now King Jing has returned, let alone missed it, even if he didn't miss it, Liu Yuan has to doubt it, according to the mind of His Highness King Jing , will it make things worse.So Liu Yuan didn't feel any regrets about Jing Wang's behavior of sneaking away later.

"How could this king do it himself?" An Chengji shook his head. Although it was a little chaotic at the time, the people who did it were all servants, and the master did it, which was too demeaning.

"If the emperor blames him, His Highness will admit it now, but not all of it, and then..." Liu Yuan was slightly relieved when he heard what An Chengji said. Fortunately, An Chengji was not so stupid as to be hopelessly stupid. At this point, if you do it yourself, you will never be able to take off this hat.

Now at least it can be said that the subordinates presumed what they wanted, An Chengji didn't stop him in time, and he couldn't discipline him properly.Anyway, it is easier than murdering the emperor's heir.

"Can this work?" An Chengji frowned after hearing what Liu Yuan said, but he couldn't think of a better solution himself.

"Have it been eight months, Concubine Mei?" Liu Yuan glanced at An Chengji who was fidgeting, frowned, and asked a question that didn't fit the question.

Although An Chengji didn't know why Liu Yuan asked this question, but at this time he had no one else to ask for help except Liu Yuan. He lowered his head and thought for a while, and finally nodded: "It's been eight months."

"There is an old saying that seven lives and eight don't live. Even if this child is not a dead baby, it will not be able to support it. At that time, what will the emperor do to His Highness because of a dead prince?" Liu Yuan said softly. Putting down the teacup in his hand, fortunately, An Chengji's recklessness was at a good time. The most feared thing is not that Concubine Mei will give birth prematurely because of An Chengji's recklessness, but that both mother and child will be safe after Concubine Mei gives birth prematurely!

Hearing this, An Chengji also made up his mind. That's right, the emperor's father's delay in establishing a heir is not because of the child in Concubine Mei's womb?Now that the child is gone, I am still my father's favorite prince!

Thinking of this, the corners of An Chengji's lips twitched, and he was faintly satisfied with what he did just now. If he hadn't acted decisively, maybe he would still have a headache because of Concubine Mei, mother and child, in a month's time. !

As he thought about it, the joy on An Chengji's face became deeper and deeper. It seemed that what made him panic just now was the result of his deliberation.

"If the emperor asks, Your Highness just admits his mistake. If the prince cannot survive, the emperor will not punish you too much." Liu Yuan looked at An Chengji, who was a little fluttering at this time, feeling a little bit uneasy, and couldn't help but sigh again. I asked a few words.

"Don't worry, sir, I know." Because he was thinking about why Lu Shuyi and her child would not be able to survive, An Chengji was very relaxed now, and he didn't care much about Liu Yuan's words at this time. He waved his hands, casually perfunctory.

Seeing this, Liu Yuan frowned, and when he was about to say something, he heard the communication outside the door:

"His Royal Highness King Jing, Director Li passed on the oracle from the Holy Spirit."

After hearing this, An Chengji stood up from the stool. Knowing Li Shunde's intentions, he casually waved his hand at Liu Yuan and said casually, "I'm leaving first."

After finishing speaking, An Chengji didn't forget to straighten his clothes before walking out of Liu Yuan's room.

Liu Yuan looked at An Chengji's back, frowning tightly, His Highness was not like this before, when did His Highness become like this?

Liu Yuan thought about it, and thought of the time when An Chengji pretended to be sick because of Ashina Siyun, it seems that from that time on, His Highness's attitude towards himself, towards others, and the way he behaved gradually changed. After a change, then who said what did His Highness's concubines say?

Thinking of this, Liu Yuan tightened his hand holding the teacup, and his eyes darkened.

An Chengji didn't know what Liu Yuan was thinking, but when he saw Li Shunde who brought someone along, he wasn't too nervous, and he didn't even care about it.

"Eunuch Li." An Chengji nodded to Li Shunde, his tone somewhat casual.

Li Shunde has been with An Rui for many years, who hasn't seen him?Seeing An Chengji's performance now, he knew that he didn't take this matter to heart. He wanted to remind him a few words, but when he thought of the emperor's attitude, Li Shunde simply gave up after seeing King Jing's current behavior:

"The emperor's oral order: Chuan Jing Wang enters the palace to have an audience. I wonder if His Highness is free at this time?"

"It's time, Eunuch Li lead the way." Because of Liu Yuan's words just now, An Chengji didn't pay attention to what happened just now, and his father and emperor would not punish him too much. Isn't that the case?If he pretended to be sick, the matter would be lifted up and down gently, and the emperor would not punish him too much this time.

After all, Lu Shuyi is just a concubine, how can he compare with the princess of the neighboring country?

The thoughts in An Chengji's heart were more or less reflected in his performance. Li Shunde looked at An Chengji who didn't care, and shook his head secretly in his heart. No wonder the emperor is not optimistic about His Highness King Jing. His Highness King Jing's behavior is really... embarrassing big responsibility.

Everyone had their own thoughts, and after a while, Li Shunde led An Chengji into the imperial study.

"Father isn't there?" After An Chengji walked into the imperial study, he raised his eyes and didn't see An Rui from where he was before. Finally, he couldn't help but look around the room and found that An Rui was really not in the imperial study. He was a little surprised for a while.

"The emperor is still in Changxin Palace, His Highness may have to wait." When he left, the emperor didn't act like he would come back easily. Why is King Jing still not paying attention now?

"When will the father come back?" Hearing that An Rui was still in Changxin Palace, An Chengji frowned. The two dying people on the left and right, what is there to guard against?

"This is not what the servant should ask. The emperor is still waiting for the servant to serve him. If His Highness has no other orders, the servant will leave." Li Shunde said, bowing his hands to An Chengji.

"Go down." An Chengji didn't stop Li Shunde when he heard what he said, and waved his hand to let Li Shunde go down.

Li Shunde leaned over, and walked towards the door. When he reached the door, Li Shunde turned his head slightly, wanting to say a few words about An Chengji's body shape, but after seeing An Chengji randomly find a place to sit down , shook his head lightly, and left without saying anything in the end:

His Royal Highness Jing Wang's performance this time is clearly hopeless!

Fengyi Palace——

"It's quite lively in the palace today." Ji Youyi said, casually flipping through a page of the book in her hand.

Ji Youyi just heard some rumors, but they didn't hear it clearly. Now that Yuanwei is here, Ji Youyi simply chats with Yuanwei.

After hearing this, Iris smiled softly, and the joy on her face was a little obvious: "Isn't it? I heard that the one from Changxin Palace can't do it."

Although it is not true in Fengyi Palace, there are always no secrets in the palace. Such a big event has already been spread, but I don't know why the empress doesn't know about it.

"It can't work anymore?" Ji Youyi raised her eyebrows without raising her head, "Why can't it work?"

"It's said that it was hit, and it's about to give birth." Iris said, moved a little, and pinched Ji Youyi's other leg. What happened, Iris didn't really know, and she couldn't know the details, but From the movements of the Tai Hospital and the faint rumors, one can almost infer the whole story.

Iris didn't know who would run into Concubine Mei at this time, but it was always a good thing for the empress.

"That child, is it eight months old?" Ji Youyi chuckled when she heard the words, as if she was talking about gossip that had nothing to do with her. As for why Lu Shuyi was bumped into, Ji Youyi was not interested. , is it still missing?

"Isn't it?" Yuan Wei couldn't help but gloat when she said this, Concubine Mei's child must be lost now, so she doesn't know if Concubine Mei will survive.

"It's a pity." Ji Youyi said, she turned another page of the book in her hand, and said nothing more.

But this sentence is a pity, I don't know if it is a pity for the child, or a pity for Concubine Mei.

Yuanwei knew Ji Youyi well, knew what Ji Youyi said meant that she didn't want to talk about it anymore, she was a little surprised for a moment, it seemed that the empress was different from before?

But since the empress doesn't want to hear it, then she won't say it.

But what Iris didn't expect was that someone spoke instead of her.

"Ma'am." Zisu looked at Yuanwei who was half kneeling in front of Ji Youyi and beating her legs, and then at Ji Youyi who was lying on the couch reading a book, a little hesitant to speak.

"What's the matter?" Ji Youyi heard this, looked up at Zisu, frowned, a little displeased, but this maid was the most useful under her command except Yuanwei, Ji Youyi reluctantly suppressed this displeasure down.

"The emperor just announced that His Royal Highness King Jing has entered the palace." Zi Su said, looking up at Ji Youyi, only to find that Ji Youyi's expression was as usual, and her heart felt a "thump".

At that time, Zi Su heard part of the secret conversation between Ji Youyi and Mu A Duo. Zi Su was also the first to know that Ji Youyi planned to give up His Royal Highness King Jing. Is she really going to give up now?

"Oh?" Ji Youyi heard this, glanced at Zisu, and motioned for her to continue, but her eyes returned to the book in her hand, obviously she was a little dissatisfied with An Rui's behavior of calling An Chengji into the palace at this time Take it for granted.

"It's about Concubine Mei's matter, it's related to His Highness." Zi Su has been with Ji Youyi for many years, so she naturally knows that no big or small things in the palace can be hidden from Ji Youyi, and now that Iris is still here, Ji Youyi probably already knows about Concubine Mei's matter Therefore, Zisu didn't go into details, so she didn't know about King Jing, how much did the empress know.

"What?" Ji Youyi put down the book and stood up from the soft couch, "What is it about Concubine Mei related to succession?"

"I heard that Concubine Mei gave birth prematurely because His Royal Highness Prince Jing bumped into Concubine Mei." Seeing Ji Youyi's attitude at this time, Zi Su heaved a sigh of relief. She belongs to Prince Jing, so she naturally hopes that Prince Jing is well. I was afraid that Ji Youyi would abandon His Highness, but now it seems that it is not entirely true.

Hearing this, Ji Youyi thought back to what Yuanwei said just now, and after a while, she guessed the general story of the matter. After walking around the room a few times, she turned to look at Zisu: "Where is the emperor now?"

"Changxin Palace." Zisu lowered her head, answering Ji Youyi's question.

"Where's the inheritance?" Ji Youyi pinched the center of her brows, and this is the end of today's quiet day?

"The Royal Study Room." Zisu said, lowering her head again. Just before she came in, she had inquired about everything that needed to be inquired.

Hearing this, Ji Youyi walked around the room twice, finally calmed down, and waved her hands: "You guys go out first, when will the emperor return to the imperial study, and when will you come in to communicate."

Hearing this, Zisu was really surprised. The empress didn't know about it just now, but now she knows about it, but she doesn't do anything?

And Iris blessed her body: "Yes."

As for Ji Youyi's thoughts, Yuanwei has never guessed through it, and later, Yuanwei understood, since the empress's thoughts can't be guessed, she doesn't guess, as long as she acts according to the empress' orders.
