Chapter 240 Meet

The fighting in the distance and the movement of the palaces and pavilions being burned gradually faded away. The anxious concubines secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but frightened by the expressions of the queen and concubine De, they did not dare to show joy, and only lowered their eyes. Close your eyes and be an honest wooden man.

It was Princess Zhaoqing who said cautiously: "Mother, it seems to be much quieter outside, is it true that Father has calmed down the situation?"

"..." Yun Fenghuang's heart was still very confused at the moment, and he said with force, "Don't take it lightly, let people go and have a look."

So Chen Zhu and other confidants were sent to check.

After a long while, Chen Zhu came back with a happy expression on his face and told: "Madam, all the rebels have been put to death, and the rest have been arrested... Although there are still some fires inside and outside the palace, there are no serious problems!"

He also said, "Jiang Lan, Eunuch Jiang, has personally led troops into the palace to serve the king, and is now serving in front of the imperial court."

Jiang Lan is an old man Chunjia has served personally since Fuyang County. If even he can't be trusted, it can only be said that there are not many people in the world who stand on the emperor's side.

The expression on Yun Fenghuang's face also relaxed a little, Concubine De quickly asked: "What about the imperial heirs? How are the imperial heirs doing now?"

"Return to the words of Empress Concubine De." Chen Zhu said, "The palace was in chaos before, and the emperor's heirs scattered away. Most of them have been escorted out of the palace, hiding in disguise. Now that His Majesty knows the situation, Lord Deng has ordered people to go Find the emperor's heirs... At present, everything is fine for the emperor's heirs."

Concubine De finally let go of her hanging heart, and looked at the queen again: "Sister?"

"..." Yun Fenghuang was silent for a while, and then suppressed his sour mood, and asked, "Your Majesty...how is he?"

"Return to your mother's words." Chen Zhu was still in high spirits just now, but now faced with the master's question, he subconsciously became dull, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty is an important minister in front of you now, or an old man like Eunuch Jiang, slaves and servants are not allowed Come closer. I just heard from the imperial attendant that His Majesty is still in good spirits, and he was still explaining things to your lords a moment ago."

The concubines were completely relieved.

But Yun Fenghuang didn't dare to fully believe this, because in this situation, no matter what Chunjia's situation was, all the ministers and close servants on his side would release the emperor safe and sound, and they could continue to preside over the overall situation signal of.

They even said something unlucky: even if Chunjia was gone, they would keep their mourning secret, so as not to be defeated by the chaos on the front line.

The others didn't realize Yun Fenghuang's hidden worry, only Concubine De spent the longest time with her, although she didn't expect so much, she was keenly aware that the Empress was not in high spirits.

She thought that the queen was still troubled by the scene just now, and now she dared not go to see Chunjia, hesitated, and said in a low voice: "Sister, since the heirs are all fine, how about my sister accompany you to see His Majesty?"

"...Okay." Yun Fenghuang was indeed a little afraid to see Chunjia, because he was afraid that he would hear bad news after he went.

Also don't know how to face him?

She is no longer as high-spirited as she was when she was a teenager. She has no reason to think that it is a matter of course for anyone to pay for herself.

He only cares about winning or losing, and despises everything with a soft heart.

After more than ten years of trekking, looking back at the past, Yun Fenghuang is too aware of how difficult and pure the choice between life and death is.

And she neither thought of giving this purity and Chunjia, nor wanted to get it from him.

But he gave it.

This surprised Yun Fenghuang, and even made him feel overwhelmed rather than moved.

It's just that she must also go to see Chunjia.

Now it's just to quell the rebellion in the palace for the time being, and it's unknown how many changes will follow in the future.

Whether it is Yun Fenghuang who was saved by Chunjia's life, or the queen, it is impossible for her to continue to indulge in this myriad of emotions.

She has to stand up and take charge of the overall situation, not only for the responsibility of the queen, but also for the future of herself and her children.

When I left Zezhi Tower, I happened to see a group of soldiers coming in a hurry not far away led by the servants.

Seeing Feng Jia, the head of the servants hurriedly saluted, and looked at the queen with extra awe: "Your Majesty, your majesty has settled down the incident, and now he is sending servants to welcome you back to your residence. Next, inside and outside the palace, all Martial law, please, ladies and heirs, don't go out without edicts, lest you be taken advantage of by the rebellious party!"

"Understood." Yun Fenghuang nodded, turned around and ordered a few words, let Concubine De watch everyone do it, "I'm going to see Your Majesty... Where is His Majesty now?"

Concubine De saw that she had changed her mind and didn't want to accompany her, she was a little worried: "Sister?"

"It's okay." Yun Fenghuang's long eyelashes drooped, and he tightly clenched the hand that was holding the hem of the robe in his palm, and said in a deep voice, "I can go there alone."

She just went out and blew some wind, but she came back to her senses.

On Chunjia's side, no matter what his situation is now, she always has to face it.

Concubine De went with her, but it was actually useless.

It's better to take advantage of the situation and send it to do something else, so as not to hinder her from waiting for Princess Changfen's return.

After all, this is between her and Chunjia.

It was even more embarrassing when other people were present.

The servant lowered his hand and said: "If you go back to the empress, Shengjia is now back in Xingxintang, and I will settle it for now."

The palace where the accident happened just now was extremely heavily guarded, with almost one post at every five steps and one sentry at every ten steps.

And the closer to the Xingxin Hall where the emperor lived, the tighter the guards.

Outside the Xingxin Hall, almost all soldiers were surrounded.

It's just that their expressionless faces and the coldness of the weapons in their hands could not make Yun Fenghuang feel safe at all, but his heart sank even more.

Although she knew that she didn't know Chunjia as well as she thought in these years, she understood that if the emperor was really fine... the security here might not be so grand.

What is grand now is not the appearance of worrying about the assassin's attack, but the meaning of coping with great changes.

The Queen gathered herself outside the Xinxin Hall before walking in.

Outside the emperor's usual dormitory, Jiang Lan, who hadn't seen him for a long time, was guarding him personally. In addition, there was the tired-looking Duke Ning, wearing armor and holding a sword, with a dignified expression.

Seeing the queen coming, they all had complicated expressions.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty just fell asleep." After seeing the ceremony, Ning Guogong did not speak, but Jiang Lan said in a hoarse voice, "The imperial doctor said that it is not appropriate to disturb now."

So Yun Fenghuang didn't go in, and only asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty...how is it?"

"...The ancestors of the Gongxiang family are blessed." Jiang Lan looked at her heavily, and said slowly, "The arrow did not hurt His Majesty's vitals, but the arrow was poisonous... and the situation was critical at that time, and His Majesty could not immediately Received medical treatment, insisted on directing firefighting and quelling the chaos with the wounded, and just explained the next arrangement with the adults before bandaging the wound, so... I am afraid I will have to rest for a while."

Yun Fenghuang was silent for a while, and said, "I will go in and have a look."

"Your Majesty, the imperial physician said that His Majesty is not to be disturbed now." Jiang Lan frowned slightly, and Ning Guogong beside him was also a little unhappy.

They didn't have much affection for the queen before. After all, Yun Fenghuang was born in a humble background and has many methods. He can't be said to be gentle and generous in his actions. He even tricked Jiang Lan... But because of the emperor, there is not much dislike.

But in the face of Chunjia's current situation, these courtiers and close servants are true to the queen, and they don't like it.

This means that Yun Fenghuang has been favored for many years, has a very grand reputation in the former court and the harem, and has many heirs, and is a formal queen, not an ordinary concubine.

Otherwise, Ning Guogong and others will have to consider whether to eradicate the evil concubine while the emperor is asleep!

Right now they are still talking to the queen politely, which is already restrained.

The queen insisted on seeing the emperor, why not upset them?

"I know." Yun Fenghuang knew their feelings, and she really didn't have the confidence to refute at the moment, so she just said slowly, "I won't disturb Your Majesty, just take a look... After all, what your Majesty is doing now is all about it." How can I feel relieved if you don’t personally face the saint with your one-sided words?!”

"Your Majesty, do you not trust slaves?" Jiang Lan was quite speechless, but Ning Guogong thought about it, and felt that it made sense. The emperor just did not care about his own life for the queen. If the queen came to visit, they would send him away with a few words, which is also right. The emperor was too careless.

Insisting on seeing the emperor's situation in person shows that the queen still has a bit of conscience.

Ning Guogong said: "Then please come in alone, don't stay."

"My lady, please." Jiang Lan thought for a while, but instead of letting Yun Fenghuang enter alone as Ning Guogong said, he accompanied her behind her.

Because after autumn, the mountains are colder than Miyagi, and the floor in the room is covered with thick 氍毹, stepping on it makes no sound.

Turning around the screen, one can see that the curtain is drooping, and there are shadows of people lying in it.

Jiang Lan stepped forward slowly, and gently lifted a corner of the curtain, revealing Chunjia's pale face.

He was lying on his back on the imperial couch with his thin lips tightly pursed, probably because he had just issued orders to stabilize the overall situation, but there was still a bit of coldness and strength left on his mature and handsome face, even when he was asleep, his brows were still slightly frowning.

Obviously, the current situation made him quite tired.

Jin was covered up to his chin, so he couldn't see the condition of the wound.

The indigo dark embroidered auspicious cloud pattern on the quilt made Chunjia's complexion whiter, and even her lips looked weak.

Yun Fenghuang stretched out his hand halfway, and under Jiang Lan's hesitant gaze, he didn't continue, fearing that he would wake him up.

She bit her lip, holding back the intense emotions, only felt that her eyes were sore and astringent, and there was a faint tingling sensation, which was due to too many tears that day.

Withdrawing her hand, the queen turned her head and signaled Jiang Lan to put down the curtain, so that the lights not far away would disturb Chunjia's drowsiness.

She stood there for a while, listening to the emperor's breathing, which was much weaker and faster than usual.

Fortunately, it's fairly stable.

Yun Fenghuang raised his hand to wipe away the tears on his cheeks, nodded to Jiang Lan, turned and walked out.

Jiang Lan hurriedly followed.

The two went out of the inner room and closed the door, Yun Fenghuang was about to say that he was also guarding here, when suddenly there were hurried footsteps outside.

Immediately, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager Yuan walked in with the same pale complexion!

The two elders of the royal family were usually well-dressed and calm, and they never lost their composure, but at this moment, they both had disheveled hair on their temples and anxious expressions, and even the jade pendants on their skirts were entangled with each other in a mess due to their eager steps.

Before they could speak to Ning Guogong and Jiang Lan, their colors changed instantly when they saw Yunfenghuang!

The six eyes met, Yun Fenghuang bowed his body to salute, and then squatted down, but suddenly there was a wind in front of him, but it was the Empress Dowager who suddenly took two steps, waving her hand was a slap in the face!
