The Crown Prince is Actually a Princess! - Chapter 280
After the doctor Xue returned to the capital, he was very relieved to learn that His Royal Highness had awakened. The same is true for other people, very happy, and the hard work of many days has not been in vain.
Murongci’s body is very weak, and she still needs to rest for a few days. If she wants to go back to the East Palace and stay in the Royal Mansion, it will not be good if it is spread.
Murong Yu disagreed, saying that if she recovers quickly, she will be sent back to the East Palace in two days.
She couldn’t hold him back, so she leaned on him.
This night, she ate two bowls of bird’s nest porridge and fell asleep deeply.
Qin Ruo smiled and said, “It’s good for the slave and these two maids to watch the night. The prince hasn’t closed his eyes well in the past few days, so take a good rest tonight.”
He nodded, looked at A Ci again, and turned to go out.
Ghost followed him back to the bedroom, after listening to the order, closed the door, and then stepped back.
Not long after, the candlelight in the bedroom went out and it was pitch black, and only a plain bone lantern under the porch outside was swaying in the wind of the cold night.
It was late at night, and there were only a few lanterns left in the entire Imperial Palace emitting dim light, and a strange atmosphere seemed to spread in the thick night.
Several dark shadows approached the bedroom where Murong resigned.
These dark shadows flew up silently from the outer wall, and flew into the imperial palace at extreme speed, passing by like ghosts, like flashes of shock, and no traces of geese passing by.
The guards in the palace were unaware, and some were still yawning.
On the roof and outside the window, two figures quickly sneaked into the bedroom in the blink of an eye.
In the next instant, the two figures flew out at a ghostly speed, seeming to flee, and jumped onto the roof.
In the night, a round of Liangyue was lonely and shallowly there, shining these mysterious shadows. The two sides faced each other, the night was quiet, and the cold wind swept across someone’s black and broad hair, floating like an immortal.
In a corner of the roof, the man stood against the wind, standing between the sky and the sky, the small black silhouette seemed to hide infinite power.
On the side headed by the ghost image, it looked like a beast staring at its prey and rushing towards it quickly.
The fighting started violently, the swords in the air were sonorous, **** and murderous, but in the room below, the sleeping people didn’t notice anything.
Not long after, the man in black who sneaked into the palace escaped with injuries, and Ghost and others immediately chased after him.
Before Murong Yu did, he flew down lightly to see A Ci.
In the dim candle shadow, Murong Ci slept soundly. He pulled the quilt and took the brocade box containing the golden hairpin of Nine Dragon Opera and returned to the room.
After waiting for a cup of tea, the ghost finally came back.
“The prince, the subordinate is incompetent, let people run away.” The ghost image is very annoyed, and I don’t know what’s wrong these days, always let people run away.
“How did you run? Sky cannon?” Murong Yu asked coldly.
“If it weren’t for the sky cannon, the subordinates would definitely catch those people alive.” The ghost gritted his teeth.
“Have you seen the way of those people?”
“Those people are light and good, the number of martial arts is nothing special, I can’t see it.”
“These people are here for the Nine Dragon Opera Phoenix Golden Hairpin. They must be in the same group as the Taoist priest and the middle-aged woman.”
Murong Yu concluded that the mastermind who came to steal the Nine Dragons Show Feng Jinchai tonight was the one who performed spiritual contemplation on A Ci. It’s just that the mastermind has a good mind, doesn’t show up easily, doesn’t easily leave clues, and can’t follow it.
He said solemnly: “According to this king’s order, secretly investigate. Anyone who sees suspicious behavior must be tracked down.”
The ghost led his retreat.
After daybreak, Murong Yu went to the morning court, and immediately returned to the house after he left the morning court. He asked Murongci: “On the day of the Chinese New Year, have you ever seen a stranger who behaves strangely?”
Murongci carefully recalled the situation that day. He was in the East Palace during the day. He only left the palace in the evening. He met Muronglan at the gate of the palace, so he went to the Luohe River to find Shen Zhiyan and the others… However, He Qinruo was crowded with people. While walking down the street, she met an old woman who fell down.
“The old woman was knocked down and fell in front of me, so I helped her up,” she recalled with a frown. “The old woman grabbed my hand and kept thanking me.”
“Is there anything unusual about the old woman?” he asked.
“No…” She suddenly thought, “By the way, when I looked at the old woman’s eyes, it seemed like her eyes flashed with blue light. The street lights were bright as day, I didn’t care.”
“It didn’t take long for you to fall into a coma. It seems that the old woman has something wrong.” Murong Yu’s eyebrows were dark, “Perhaps because you took a look at that old woman, she can cast soul contemplation on you.”
Murongci was shocked, and his heart lingered, “Dementia? You mean I got sick these days because of it? There really is such a weird and terrible contemplation in this world?”
He told her about what happened after she was in a coma, but he concealed that she had killed two servants.
She looked dignified, “I didn’t expect dementia to be so terrible, the medicine stone has no spirit, it can kill people silently. By the way, the secret technique of dementia has been lost for decades? Why is there anyone who is proficient in it? This technique?”
Murong Yu didn’t want her to know too much for the time being, “I don’t know either.”
Next, she asked if anything had happened in the palace. He said that everything was fine in the palace, and she was a little relieved.
…
After reclining in the Imperial Palace for two days, Murongci insisted on returning to the East Palace. He didn’t see it with his own eyes and was really worried about the palace.
Even if Shen Zhiyan and Muronglan said everything as usual when they came to see her, she still wanted to go back to the East Palace.
When the carriage was ready, she and Qin Ruo came out of the dormitory, only to see Steward Lin rushing towards Murong Lan with Murong Lan, describing them as panic.
“Emperor sister, why are you looking like this? Could something happen in the palace?” Murong Ci had a bad hunch.
“Brother emperor, emperor father is seriously ill…” Murong Lan said breathlessly, her small face full of worry and anxiety.
“Father is seriously ill? When did it happen?” Murongci asked anxiously, his heart aching violently.
“This morning the minister’s sister accompanied the emperor to eat breakfast. After eating breakfast, the emperor suddenly fainted…so far unconscious…” Murong Lan said anxiously.
It was already past noon, in other words, the father had been in a coma for several hours.
Murongci hurriedly walked out and said to Steward Lin: “The palace will go back to the palace immediately. You tell the prince that your father is seriously ill.”
Butler Lin answered.
They hurriedly boarded the carriage and left. Murong Yu learned of this and immediately entered the palace.
Arriving to the Qingyuan Hall, Murongci rushed into the sleeping hall, but saw Master Shen, Imperial Doctor Qiao and other emperor doctors consulting for His Majesty, discussing with them. She sat in front of the bed and stared at the emperor father, shocked. Why did the emperor father’s face turn blue?
Qin Ruo said in astonishment: “His Majesty, why is His Majesty’s face as blue as the previous days?”
Muronglan frowned, and said, “It didn’t take long for Emperor Father to be in a coma, and his complexion gradually changed to this.”
Murongci frowned and said nothing, could it be that his father was also subject to contemplation?
“Master Shen, what is the condition of Emperor Father?” She asked Master Shen.
“Your Majesty, your majesty’s illness is very similar to his previous illness.” Lord Shen replied, “but there is a difference, your majesty’s eyes are bloodshot.”
She immediately lifted the eyelids of the emperor father, and sure enough, the emperor father’s eyes were entwined with terrible bloodshot eyes, as if they were bleeding with bright blood.
How could this be?
She panicked and asked, “Is the father’s dragon body in trouble?”
Lord Shen said solemnly: “Your Majesty’s dragon body is already weak and not stronger than His Royal Highness. The minister felt that in a few hours, your Majesty’s dragon will experience…”
Take a sharp turn.
Murongci understood that the emperor father couldn’t bear the toss of contemplation.
Supreme Physician Qiao suddenly said: “Your Highness, Master Xue is still in Beijing, it is better to ask Master Doctor Xue to heal your Majesty.”
She told Qin Ruo: “Send someone to send a message to the royal king, and invite the doctor Xue to enter the palace.”
Qin Ruo went immediately.
Not long after, Murong Yu hurried over, and after hearing the reports from Lord Shen and others, Xue Yan was full of cold air.
Murongci dragged him to the hall and whispered: “Could it be the same person? Father’s symptoms are very similar to me, isn’t it?”
He nodded, “It is indeed similar, but there is a little difference. Your Majesty’s eyes turned red. Don’t worry, I have sent someone to call for Doctor Xue.”
The mastermind behind the scenes who wanted to play in the Nine Dragons Show Feng Jinchai acted very cautiously. After two days of investigation, Ghost and others did not find any clues.
Mr. Shen and the emperor went to the side hall to wait first, and Murong Yu and Murong Ci waited anxiously for the doctor Xue in the main hall.
The person sent by the ghost image reported: “The prince, God Doctor Xue has left Beijing this morning, and Master Ghost has gone after him.”
Her heart jerked up, why did God Doctor Xue leave so quickly? I wonder if the ghost can find him.
“Isn’t there half of the five medicinal materials? Try the same way to heal the emperor father.” She suggested.
“No. You are safe and sound, that person will not use the same spiritism to murder Your Majesty again, he will definitely change.” Murong Yu was sure.
“What you said is right.” She didn’t think of it because she was caring and messed up.
A servant outside the hall reported: “Master, a few adults are in the study to see you.”
Murongci thought about what should be important, and said, “You go first.”
Murong Yu said with relief: “You don’t need to worry too much, Your Majesty will get better.”
She nodded and watched him leave, feeling melancholy.
After drinking a cup of hot tea, she suddenly felt a little discomfort in her lower abdomen, so she took Qin Ruo to the cottage.
On the way back, Qin Ruo said: “His Royal Highness, the night you wake up, there was movement in the Royal Palace.”
“What’s going on?” Murong Ci frowned slightly.
“The minion was asleep, so he went out to have a look. Some people in black rushed to the imperial palace at night, but the prince made arrangements, and the ghost and others fought with the people in black, but later I don’t know if anyone was caught.” Qin Ruo said.
Murongci secretly thought, Murong Yu never mentioned this matter.
Could it be that the mastermind behind the scenes who harmed himself and his father sent someone to sneak into the imperial palace? So what are they trying to do?
When she returned to the main hall, she was stunned in shock, and saw that under the jade steps in front of the hall were full of palace people and guards, and three palace people lying on the ground, blood dripping all over the floor. And the father is holding a long sword, disheveled, standing barefoot, wearing only a shirt, skinny, blood stained in the moon white shirt, eye-catching. His cyan face was very terrifying, his eyes flashed with red light, and the fierce expression was twisted and hideous, especially appalling. The Jianfeng was stained with blood, and the blood dripped drop by drop.
