Chapter 607 Lead by Example

The queen mother called Luo Xinran in front of him and asked him how he was doing recently.

Luo Xinran had a taciturn temperament, and at this time would not say anything nice to make the Queen Mother happy.

Basically, the queen mother asked a question, and he answered it.

In the eyes of the Queen Mother like this, he is honest and obedient.

In this particularly sensitive time, honest people are the most reliable.

The queen mother became more satisfied with him, and her attitude became more and more kind.

She said a few more bits and pieces.

It probably means that the emperor is ill, and as the emperor's highly valued son, he must cheer up at this time, stabilize the situation, and don't let the emperor disappoint him.

Although the empress dowager doesn't usually take care of things, she has a high status. She can say such words in public, obviously she values ​​Luo Xinran very much.

This made the eyes of the other princes looking at Luo Xinran instantly complicated.

Some are envious, some are jealous, and some are thinking secretly.

As Luo Xinran's biological mother, Ning Fei was naturally very happy to see that the Queen Mother valued her son at this time.

She took the opportunity to say something close to the Queen Mother.

However, the queen mother's attitude towards her was lukewarm, and she didn't seem to want to be close to her very much.

Ning Fei was not disappointed when she saw this.

As long as her son can be valued, it doesn't matter what she does.

Concubine Xian concealed the ridicule in her eyes by lowering her head and wiping her tears.

Rou Concubine stared blankly at the emperor on the couch, her expression still a little dazed.

She came from a humble background, and in the early years she could get a little favor by her looks, but she was too timid and didn't know how to please the emperor. When the novelty wore off, the emperor forgot her.

Afterwards, she injured her body during childbirth, and after many years of recuperation, she still did not get better. She took medicine every three days, and she was more reclusive on weekdays and rarely contacted people.

After careful calculation, the last time Rou Concubines saw the emperor was during the reunion dinner on New Year's Eve.

That time, it was only a salute to the emperor from a distance.

Half a year has passed.

Rou Concubines saw the emperor again, but she didn't expect it to be under such circumstances.

She originally thought that after so many years of cold treatment, she should have lost her feelings for the emperor long ago, but at this time, looking at his angry appearance, she felt an indescribable discomfort and worry in her heart.

Wan Jieyu was also looking at the emperor, her eyes were red, others thought she was sad, but she was actually afraid.

According to the rules, if the emperor really went, all the concubines and concubines would be buried with them.

Those concubines who have princes are fine. If their sons are fortunate enough to ascend the throne, they may even save their lives.

But Wan Jieyu has no children or daughters, and the only person she can rely on in this palace is the emperor.

Once the emperor is gone, she will certainly not live.

When Wan Jieyu thought that she was going to be forced to be buried at a young age, she felt panic in her heart, and tears fell down her cheeks, making her pretty face even more pitiful.

Empress Qin was the last to arrive.

As soon as she entered the door, the atmosphere in the bedroom became quiet.

The gentle color on the Queen Mother's face gradually faded, and she asked indifferently, "Why did you come here at this time?"

Empress Qin greeted her with extremely standard actions.

"My concubine is not feeling well, and it took a little time to go out."

Her face did not look very good, she looked thinner than before.

The queen mother's expression softened a little: "Ai Jia heard that you have been ill recently. I don't know what kind of disease you have? Has the imperial doctor ever said how to treat it?"

Queen Qin: "The imperial doctor said that the concubine was too worried. The imperial doctor prescribed some medicine. The concubine took it every day. Her body felt better, but her spirit was not very good."

The empress dowager frowned and said, "These useless imperial physicians not only failed to cure the emperor, but also dragged on your illness for so long. It seems that the imperial hospital is about to undergo a thorough rectification."

Empress Qin looked at the emperor lying on the couch, her expression was still indifferent, and she could not see the slightest worry and sadness.

Her reaction made the Queen Mother unhappy.

"Why don't you care when you see that the emperor is so sick?"

Empress Qin lowered her eyes: "My concubine is worried, but her mouth is too stupid, I don't know how to express it, and I hope the Queen Mother will forgive her sins."

At this time, the Imperial Physician Ling came in with the soup that had just been boiled.

"Report to the Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager, it's time for the emperor to take medicine."

The Queen Mother's eyes fell on the bowl of medicine, and she asked in a deep voice, "What medicine is this?"

The Imperial Physician immediately recited the prescription from scratch.

Don't forget to add one last sentence.

"This medicine has been tried by people, and there is no problem."

The queen mother is still worried.

The emperor is now so ill that he can no longer stand the slightest chance.

Empress Qin took the initiative to speak: "Give the medicine to this palace."

The Imperial Physician ordered to immediately hand over the decoction with both hands.

In front of everyone, Empress Qin scooped up a little concoction with a spoon and put it into her mouth.

After waiting for a while, she didn't feel anything different.

The queen mother was relieved, and the look on her face eased a lot.

"Just let the slaves do things like testing medicines. As a queen, why do you have to do this kind of thing yourself?"

Empress Qin: "Because I am the empress, I should lead by example."

...

Outside the carriage, Zhao Xian's voice sounded.

"Reporting to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the last commander has led his congregation to eliminate all those who stand in the way."

Luo Qinghan asked lightly, "Where did they come from?"

Zhao Xian: "Judging from the number of martial arts and weapons, they should be rogue fugitives or the like. This is the silver note found from them, please take a look."

Xiao Xixi lifted the curtains of the car, it was always dark at night, and she could still glimpse a lot of corpses lying on the ground in front of her.

The night wind blew, bringing a strong smell of blood.

Xiao Xixi wrinkled her nose uncomfortably, stuck her hand out of the car window, and took a stack of bloody banknotes from Zhao Xian's hand.

She knew that the prince was a shrewd person, and she would definitely dislike that the silver note was too dirty, so she took out a silk handkerchief, wiped off the blood on the surface of the silver note, and then handed it to the prince.

Luo Qinghan glanced at the bank note.

The system of bank notes issued by each bank is different.

At first glance, this banknote is known to be from Shengtong Bank.

The behind-the-scenes owner of Shengtong Bank is the Feng family.

The head of the Feng family has grown up to have a son, and regards it as a treasure. He has loved his son in every possible way since he was a child.

Feng Jiaxiaolang, who participated in the examination this year, was sentenced to death because he was found to have cheated.

And the person who found out the cheating case was the Crown Prince Luo Qinghan.

Since then, the Feng family has hated Luo Qinghan.

Among the people who asked the emperor to abolish the prince, the Feng family was the main force.

Not only that, the Feng family and the Qin family are still friends, and the two families have always been on the same page in the courtroom.

Obviously, the blockers who claimed to be sent by the emperor were actually rogue fugitives hired by the Feng family.
