The System Forced Me To Flirt - Chapter 99

    “I thought that apart from the rebels of the Xue clan, I would be able to live in peace, but who knew that His Highness had just gone missing and Cao Guifei would usurp the throne with the Second Prince while His Majesty was unconscious…” Liu Lan Sighed.

    Jiang Wan endured the panic and said: “The prince has no backer now, and he has been found in the wrong place. Who would be willing to give up the throne at his fingertips?”

    “Then what should we do now?” Liu Yu supported Jiang Wan with a worried look: “Do you really want to be threatened by Concubine Cao Gui, don’t you know what to do?”

    “How is it possible?” Jiang Wan sighed: “She doesn’t dare to touch me right now. If His Highness really can’t come back, I will be silenced sooner or later.”

    After Zhong Lizhao disappeared, Concubine Cao Gui put herself back in the palace. First, it was not good to keep Jiang Wan in the palace, and second, she felt that she had no evidence of the emperor’s poisoning, plus Zhong Lizhao Now that she is missing and has no support, if Jiang Wan is aware of current affairs, she will know what to say and what not to say.

    “How dare Mr. Cao be so bold…” Liu Yu muttered.

    “Why dare not? Although His Majesty also loves His Highness the Prince, but after the Xue clan was exterminated, the Prince’s power is not as strong as before. Nowadays, most of the officials in the DPRK are newly promoted by His Majesty and are loyal Naturally, Your Majesty.” Jiang Wan raised her hand and kneaded her slender fingers on her forehead.

    Now everyone thinks that the little prince is disobedient and unfilial, making the emperor angry, how many courtiers continue to support the little prince?

    The emperor is also pitiful, and everyone by his pillow is calculating the throne. It used to be the Xue family, but now it is the Cao family who has completely exposed their ambitions without the suppression of the Xue family.

    Fortunately, the Cao family is not as powerful as the Xue family. Now the courtiers support her, but because the prince is disobedient and unfilial, and the second prince is the only living prince.

    The current situation is no longer a choice. If the second prince ascends the throne, Concubine Cao will not let her go. So she had no choice but to find a way to help the prince.

    The crown prince has always respected and loved Zhong Lizhao, the little uncle, and his ascension to the throne is the most beneficial to the Jing Palace.

    Jiang Wan calmed her thoughts and suddenly asked, “What happened to the thing I asked people to investigate the other day?”

    “What can the princess say about the family members of the imperial physicians?” Liu Yu asked.

    “Yeah, how are they?”

    Liu Yu replied: “The family members of several imperial physicians have been imprisoned, and the imprisoned prison is now guarded by the elder brother of Concubine Cao Gui, and the secret guards cannot detect the situation inside.”

    Several imperial physicians were also imprisoned in the imperial prison. In this case, they cannot be expected to come out alive to testify.

    Jiang Wan walked around the room with her brows furrowed, and suddenly Caifeng hurried in from outside to report: “Princess, Daoist Yunsheng is here.”

    “Come in!” Jiang Wan was very surprised.

    A few days ago, she asked Liu Yu to go out of the city to find Taoist Master Yun Sheng once, but unfortunately, Taoist Master Yun Sheng went to a nearby village to practice medicine and was not in the Taoist temple, so Liu Yu rushed to nothing.

    After a while, an old Taoist with immortal style, long eyebrows, and gray beard walked in. When he saw Jiang Wan, he gave a Taoist salute. “This one must be Jushi Jiang.”

    “The Taoist priest doesn’t need to be too polite.” Jiang Wan said quickly: “I must have told the Taoist priest that my guard has already told the Taoist priest what the reason for inviting the Taoist priest to come here.”

     Daoist Yun Sheng said, “I already know what the layman asked me to do, but this poison of lacquer not only requires an antidote, but also acupuncture and medicinal baths for a few days to take effect.”

    Jiang Wanwei: “If the Taoist priest heard what happened in Chang’an these few days, he should know my difficulty. To tell you the truth, the person who was poisoned was Your Majesty, and now the palace They are all people of Concubine Cao Gui, I am afraid that I will not be able to enter the palace at all, let alone take the Taoist priest to detoxify His Majesty.”

    Yun Sheng raised his brows and glanced at Wei Yan beside him with a smile, “The princess has no way to enter the palace, but King Jing has a way.”

    Jiang Wan suddenly turned around and said with bright eyes, “Liuyu, when you had a way to send my letter to His Royal Highness in the palace, I think there must be people who have entered the palace now. Method?”

    Liu Yu hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly: “There is a way, but…”

    “Just what?”

    It’s just that you can only go to a deserted yard in the palace. It is still difficult to go to the emperor’s palace.

    After listening to Liu Yu, Jiang Wan said without hesitation, “Take us there.”

    “Yes.” Liu Yu took a deep breath.

    In the evening, a carriage drove out from the back door of the palace, and the maid at the door asked while nibbling on melon seeds, “You have to go out so late?”

    “No, the princess suddenly wants to eat the cakes from Yunlailou. I can’t buy it before Yunlailou is closed.” The servant girl at the door greeted and sighed.

    “Okay, mammy remember to leave the door for me, and I’ll come back with some yellow peas for you later.” Liu Yu replied with a smile, then lowered the curtain of the carriage and called the groom to drive the horse.

    When the low-key oilcloth shed carriage was digesting food at the alley, the person guarding the gate of King Jing’s mansion yawned, and continued to stare at the gate of King Jing’s mansion not far away, complaining to his companions: “I’ve been staring at it for several days. Every day, apart from the purchase from the house, there is nothing deliberate. The imperial concubine is too rude.”

    The companions also yawned, “Isn’t the noble concubine afraid of Princess Jing’s bad things? At this juncture, there is no room for failure.”

      He entered the palace quietly.

    After getting out of the dry well, Liu Yu brought some clothes of the maid and maid from somewhere, and let Jiang Wan and Wei Yan put them on.

    “Daochang’s beard is too eye-catching…” After the three of them finished changing their clothes, they looked back and saw Yun Sheng Daochang with an immortal face, and suddenly became worried.

    With such an obvious beard, no one will believe it even if she is dressed as a servant?

    Jiang Wan pondered for a long time, then took out his dagger and said, “Daoist, if I’m wronging you, shave this beard!”

    “I can’t do it!” Daoist Yun Sheng quickly waved his hand and said, “Pin Dao is very skilled, you can follow Wei Yan to sneak into His Majesty’s bedroom quietly.”

    “Okay.” Jiang Wan took back the dagger.

    Liu Yu said: “In this case, although the Daoist Master Wei Yan takes a step first, the slave and the concubine take the princess to follow the trail, and after the princess sees the servants beside His Majesty, he will send a signal to let Come out.”

    Daoist Yun Sheng nodded again and again, stroked his precious beard, for fear of being shaved by Jiang Wan.

    “Take care of the princess.” Wei Yan didn’t say much, just convection.

    “Yes.” Liu Yu nodded, watching Wei Yan and Daoist Master Yun Sheng jump, and in the blink of an eye they flew up to the roof and disappeared into the darkness.

    Then Jiang Wan followed Liuyu and turned left and right, and walked along a path that was not crowded. When approaching the emperor’s palace, suddenly a group of people came in front.

    “Fourth sister, is the father really unable to wake up?” A woman’s voice suddenly came from the corner ahead.

    ” Concubine Cao is really domineering, and the royal father is already seriously ill, but she does not ask us princesses to visit, and guards the Xuan family hall every day. I see, the royal father’s disease is Cao Cao The imperial concubine is so hurt, she must want to kill the father emperor and make the second emperor the emperor.”

    “Fengyang, don’t talk nonsense!” Another older voice scolded.

    Hearing this, Jiang Wan probably guessed that these were several princesses who wanted to visit the emperor, but were stopped by Concubine Cao Gui and returned without success, but she happened to meet her.

    The voices of several people became more and more in. Jiang Wan looked up and caught a glimpse of a few gorgeously dressed women, surrounded by a group of palace maids.

    “What did you hear just now?” Jiang Wan lowered her head and waited for a few princesses to pass by, but saw a delicate embroidered shoe stop in front of her, and a proud voice sounded above her head.

    Oh, what a bad luck. Since this girl is afraid that her bad words will be heard, she should not speak behind her back.

    Jiang Wan lowered her head and didn’t dare to speak. She has several relationships with these princesses. If she spoke, they would recognize herself.

    “The two slaves didn’t hear anything about the princess.”

    Princess Fengyang frowned and glanced at the two of them, feeling a little familiar, “You raise your heads and ask me to take a look.”

    Jiang Wan tightened her heart and squeezed the hand in her sleeve.

    “Fengyang, it’s just two little palace maids, what are you doing to embarrass them?” At this moment, she heard Princess Sheyue’s voice, “You can’t keep your mouth shut, why don’t you keep your mouth shut? I’m afraid others will hear it. Come on, you two go to work, by the way, go to the west hall and tell Xu Cheng, I just lost a jade pendant in the Xuanshi hall, and let the palace ladies find it and bring it to me tomorrow. “

    “Yes.” Liu Yu and Jiang Wan saluted and left in a hurry without waiting for the other princesses to speak.

    “What are you doing, Third Sister, I just think those two maids are familiar!” Princess Fengyang said dissatisfied.

     “Okay, you still want to see the maids at night. I heard that two maids have died here before, and you are not afraid of encountering dirty things…” Princess Sheyue’s tone was gloomy.

    “Sanjie, don’t say anything!” Princess Fengyang and the other princesses shivered one after another, and hurried out with the palace maid, only to feel that this path was eerie and very scary .

    Princess Sheyue looked back and frowned when she saw Jiang Wan hurried to the back of Xuan Shi Hall.

    The little aunt sneaked into the palace at this time, is it really as Fengyang said, Cao Guifei is not good for the father?

    When the two hurried to the west side hall, Liu Yu breathed a sigh of relief and whispered: “Fortunately, the third princess rescued you.”

    Jiang Wan also breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately she just met Princess Sheyue, otherwise she would be recognized.

    “What’s the matter with the third princess calling you here?” Xu Cheng frowned, and when he asked impatiently, he suddenly saw Jiang Wanchong raise his head.

    His eyes froze suddenly, just as he was about to speak, he saw Jiang Wan put his finger on his lips and said “shhh”: “The jade pendant of the third princess fell in the Xuanshi Hall, and it is called a slave servant. The two come back and look for it.”

    Xu Cheng reacted immediately, coughed and turned around: “Come in!”

    Xu Cheng is the chief servant of the emperor’s side, and has won the emperor’s trust. If Jiang Wan wants to take Daoist Yun Sheng to detoxify the emperor, he must help him.

    Jiang Wan and Liuyu followed him into the side hall, and only after Xu Cheng waved his hand to call the palace maids and chamberlains in the side hall to go down, did he excitedly say: “Wangfei Niangniang, you are here to save your majesty Is it?”

    “Is His Highness King Jing back? The slaves know that His Highness King Jing will be fine!”

    Jiang Wan shook her head, “His Royal Highness did not come back.”

    “I brought Yun Shengdao into the palace, he can detoxify His Majesty.” Jiang Wan said helplessly: “Besides, I can’t help. And the palace is full of people from Cao Guifei, also There may not be a chance to detoxify His Majesty.”

    “Don’t worry, Princess, leave this to the servants!” Xu Cheng looked excited, as long as the poison on His Majesty’s body could be detoxified, Concubine Cao’s faction would not be good at all.

    Jiang Wan turned around and nodded to Liuyu, Liuyu raised her hand to her mouth and blew a few times, then she heard a sudden sound from the window next to her.

    Xu Cheng’s eyes widened, and he saw Wei Yan pushed open the window and pulled a white-haired old Taoist priest to climb in from the window.

    “This is the Taoist priest Yunsheng, who helped my family to recuperate.” Jiang Wan briefly introduced.

    Xu Cheng hurriedly bowed and said: “Master, please wait here, the servants will go to take away the maids and servants in His Majesty’s room, and then invite you to come in for His Majesty’s diagnosis and treatment.”

    Although Concubine Cao intended to put her son on the throne and sent her own people to surround the Xuanshi Hall, the palace servants who served in the emperor’s bedroom were still the emperor’s own people, but they could not tell the outside world. Just pass the message.

    After all, ministers come to visit the emperor every day. If the palace servants serving by the emperor’s side are rashly changed, it will arouse the suspicion of those ministers.

    “Hmm.” Daoist Yun Sheng flicked the dust, and regained his immortal appearance, as if it was not himself who had just climbed in through the window.

    “I need some medicine here, you can find a way to get it.” He gave Xu Cheng two chapters of the prescription: “These medicines are what I will use later, wait for me to give your majesty After the pulse is diagnosed, the dosage will be increased or decreased accordingly.”

    Xu Cheng, as if holding a baby, said repeatedly: “Don’t worry, Daoist, this servant will definitely handle this matter well.”

    Jiang Wan and a few people stayed in the west hall and waited. After a quarter of an hour, Xu Cheng personally pushed the door and came in, and led Taoist Master Yun Sheng to the emperor’s bedroom quietly.

    “The princess lay on the slave and the servant for a while.” The night was getting darker, and Liu Yu saw that Jiang Wan was a little tired, so she sat on the stool next to Jiang Wan and let her fall on her own Take a nap on your body.

    Jiang Wan was also not polite to her, yawned on top of her, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

    It wasn’t until the sky was about to dawn that Xu Cheng returned with Taoist Master Yun Sheng. The sound of the door opening woke Jiang Wan up. She stood up and asked, “Master, how is your majesty?”

    Daoist Yun Sheng showed a smile, “Pindao has already given His Majesty an acupuncture bath, and he will wake up in about two days.”

    Jiang Wan breathed a sigh of relief, and listened to him again: “It’s just that His Majesty’s body and bones are completely ruined, and even if you detoxify it, it won’t last long.”

    She was silent for a moment, then asked, “Did the Taoist priest ever discover how His Majesty was poisoned?”

    “The rhizomes and stems of Ze lacquer are weak in toxins. Even if you use Ze lacquer to cook dishes on weekdays, you can’t eat it for years. The pulse of His Majesty the poor Taoist Temple should have been taking Ze lacquer for some years. As for poisoning The reason is that there is a lot of lacquer powder in the Siwu soup that His Majesty has been taking all the year round.”

    Xu Cheng’s expression changed, but he didn’t say much, just thanked Yunsheng, and then let his godson bring the food in.

    After breakfast, Jiang Wan left Taoist Master Yun Sheng in the palace, and then left the palace in a low-key manner under Xu Cheng’s arrangement.

    Shortly after leaving the gate of the palace, Liu Yu gave Jiang Wan a wink, Jiang Wan took out her dagger, then slowly got up and stepped aside, and then Liu Yu opened the place where Jiang Wan had just sat. Soft collapse.

    As soon as I opened it, I saw a sword light flashing and stabbing at him, Liu Yu dodged, raised his hand to fight back, but saw the man’s face.

    “His Royal Highness!” Liu Yu exclaimed in surprise.

    The little prince took the offensive for a while, and recognized Liuyu as someone from Jingwang’s mansion, and immediately turned his head and saw Jiang Wan, “Little Huang Aunt, why are you?”

    Jiang Wan put down the dagger, looked at the scabbed wound on the little prince’s chest and said, “I quietly entered the palace last night to see His Majesty, and just now Xu Cheng sent me out… How could His Royal Highness be here? So, it hurts so badly?”

    Hearing her mention the emperor, the little prince’s eyelashes trembled and hurriedly asked: “He… is he awake?”

    Jiang Wan shook her head, “Not yet.”

    The little prince lowered his head in disappointment, and blamed himself: “It’s not good to be lonely, you shouldn’t talk back to him, the courtiers are right, it is really unbearable to be the crown prince.”

    He was pale, with beads of sweat hanging on his forehead, as if he was about to fall down at any moment.

    “Your Majesty’s fainting is not the reason for you.” Jiang Wan sighed, afraid that the young man would think he killed his father and fall into deep self-blame, “Your Majesty has been hit. Poison, it happened when you were arguing with the prince, it was not your fault.”

    The little prince was startled, “Poisoned? Who did it?”

    Jiang Wan shook her head, and his voice trembled again: “Then will he die?”

    “Daoist Yun Sheng has found a way to detoxify. After three days, His Majesty will be able to wake up, but his bones are not good enough. I don’t think it will last long.” Jiang Wan said.

    The little prince looked stunned, and a trace of entanglement flashed on his face.

    “The prince hasn’t told me why you have so many injuries?”

    The little prince recovered, and suddenly coughed violently, “It’s Cao Guifei’s person, she wants to apologize alone.”

    “Have they been so bold?” Jiang Wan said angrily.

    The crown prince is the heir of a country. Even if he is now detained for some disobedience and filial piety, he is almost mad at the emperor, but it is not someone from the Cao family who dares to bully him at will.

    The little prince covered his chest and said, “They dare not be blatant, but since the fall of the father, in just over ten days, four or five waves of assassins have emerged to assassinate Gu.”

    Since the emperor fell, the little prince has always wanted to see the emperor, but was stopped by Cao Guifei, and even scolded him in front of the courtiers for being disobedient and unfilial. give up.

    Although the courtiers didn’t say anything, they all saw that he was unbearable to be the heir, which made the little prince hesitant and blamed himself. If he had known that he was not in good health, how could he be so angry with him ?

    Jiang Wan saw the decadence of the little prince, but said nothing. When the carriage returned to the palace, she hurriedly asked Wei Yan and others to help the little prince into the house, and then called the palace doctor Come for treatment.

    When the government doctor bandaged the wound of the little prince, the little prince suddenly started to burn again. He was talking about his father and his mother for a while, and Jiang Wan had to sit in the town and direct the The maid cooled the little prince with soju.

    When the little prince no longer had a fever, Jiang Wan breathed a sigh of relief and returned to his room with a vain step.

    As soon as she entered the inner room, she was pulled to the door, pressed against the wall and covered with her big palm.

    Jiang Wan’s mouth loosened, she looked up stupidly, and then saw a familiar face.

    “Is His Highness really you?” She raised her hand to caress Zhong Lizhao’s cheek, and suddenly burst into tears: “You still know how to come back, I thought… I thought…”

    “Do you think this king is dead?” Zhong Lizhao saw her tears falling down, and he quickly held her face in distress, and said while wiping her tears: ” This king is so powerful, how can he die?”

    Jiang Wan snorted and choked: “You don’t say hello no matter how you say hello, I’m so scared that I think it’s a thief.”

    Jiang Wan leaned against the wall and asked with red eyes, “Your Highness, did you want to pretend to be missing and come back after you received my letter?”

    “En.” Zhong Lizhao stroked her hair and said in a gentle voice, “Thanks to the princess for being alert, otherwise, the Cao Clan will succeed.”

    Jiang Wan took Zhong Lizhao’s arm and complained: “Concubine Cao Gui has been detaining me in the palace, if it wasn’t for me being Princess Jing, she would have wanted to kill me. Your Highness, you She even threatened me after she disappeared, if you can’t come back, she will definitely try to kill me as soon as the limelight passes.”

    Zhong Lizhao’s eyes flashed with anger when he heard the words, he took Jiang Wan into his arms and said: “No, this king will definitely not let anyone hurt you. You stay at home. Wait, when the time comes, the king will capture her alive and apologize to you?”

    “Okay…” Jiang Wan nodded, not taking his words seriously.

    Zhong Lizhao buried in her hair and took a deep breath to relieve the lovesickness for so many days, Jiang Wan also obediently stayed still and let him hold her.

    When the maid came to call her to eat, Zhong Lizhao let her go, and said in a low and hoarse voice, “Let’s eat!”

    Jiang Wan let him hold his hand and stared at him without blinking, as if to make up for this time.

    Zhong Lizhao shook his head and pushed her helplessly.

     “By the way, Your Highness, the Crown Prince was injured and is now recovering at our house!” Jiang Wan suddenly remembered and said.

    Zhong Lizhao frowned, squeezed her hand and said, “I see.”

    “DiDi” just walked out of the door of the inner room, when the system that had been silent for several months suddenly appeared.

    [After a quarter of an hour, you will be crushed to death by the tiles on the roof. In order to save yourself, you choose:

    1. Take off the princess’ clothes and read “The Story of the West Chamber. □□Flowers”.

    2. 】

    “…”

    Zhong Lizhao’s face stiffened, and he remembered the content of “The Story of the West Chamber. Under the lamp, he stole his eyes, with meat on his chest. Cheerful! All over the body, I don’t know where the spring comes from.

    The author has something to say:  I was going to update it in the afternoon, but the content is relatively small, so the two chapters are updated together.
