To Be a Mighty Empress, Or Not to Be - C134
Li Ruolan said with great effort: “Your majesty, chenqie just had a very terrifying dream where someone tried to kill chenqie’s son. Your majesty, you have to avenge chenqie!”
“Alright, that was just a dream. Don’t be afraid. With me by your side, we will protect our son.” The Emperor gently embraced her waist and leaned against his chest. His voice was filled with a gentleness that had never been present before.
Seeing this, Shi Anran understood in her heart that the Emperor must have some feelings for Li Ruolan, if not she would not have rushed over to the Feng Yi Palace early in the morning.
“You leave. Did I allow you to enter?” When Li Ruolan saw Shi Anran, she could not control the anger in her heart and struggled to get up to seek justice from her.
Let alone the fact that the prince was still in her stomach, she could already do such a crazy thing. If the prince really was gone, who knew what this woman would do!
With this thought, Shi Anran could only stay far away from them. She then bowed and said, “Your Majesty, esteemed imperial concubine, Anran will leave now!”
“Scram, scram …” Li Ruolan was clearly more excited than before.
Shi Anran, that slut, actually dared to appear in front of him. If it wasn’t for the presence of the emperor, Li Ruolan swore she would choose 100 different ways to die and torture her to death.
“Doctor Zhou, why is the Imperial Concubine’s mood so unstable?” The emperor said in a low voice.
After hearing that, Doctor Zhou cupped his hands in a salute, then explained, “The Empress must have cared too much for the prince in her stomach, which was why it caused such fear. I’ve given the Empress some medicine to drink, so she should be fine.” He lowered his eyes as he spoke, and a bright light flashed through his eyes before quickly disappearing.
Shi Anran stood guard at the door, when she saw Doctor Zhou come out, she stared at him expressionlessly.
“Where is Doctor Zhou going? Anran still has some questions for Doctor Zhou!”
“So it’s Aunt Anran!” Imperial Physician Zhou said, then he casually opened his mouth and asked: “I wonder what Aunt Anran has to ask?”
“Actually, there’s nothing else!” While Shi Anran was speaking, he kept a close eye on his expression, but unfortunately, the face was hidden too well, so she could not see any clues, or maybe he hid it too deeply?
Just as Zhou Imperial Physician was about to leave, Shi Anran suddenly asked him: “Has Imperial Physician Zhou heard of poison like poison?!”
“Never!” He insisted, then said: “If Aunt is all right, then I will take my leave!”
After she received Imperial Physician Zhou’s evasive gaze, Shi Anran suddenly laughed: “Imperial Physician Zhou, why are you so busy walking around? Anran had not even finished speaking, I wonder if Imperial Physician Zhou can tell me where this poison came from? ”
“Doesn’t Aunt think it’s funny to play with a man who’s seven feet tall?” Strangely, Shi Anran’s words had angered him. After Doctor Zhou finished speaking, he quickly left.
“Hmph …” Escape was not a way to explain things! I think Imperial Physician Zhou should answer this question! ” Shi Anran smiled, but there was a hint of coldness in her smile.
Doctor Zhou looked into her eyes, then acted as if he did not know what Shi Anran was talking about, as he raised his head and walked forward, ignoring the people behind him.
Seeing his almost desperate and escaping figure, the corner of Shi Anran’s mouth slowly curved into a smile. However, that smile was not too hot nor too cold, so Shi Anran was unable to see what she actually meant.
After that, Yi Yue quietly appeared behind her and said: “Miss, do you want this servant to follow him?”
“No need, I believe the truth will be revealed soon!” At that time, these people who were hurting him behind his back would have to experience the taste of defeat.
Yi Yue nodded her head in agreement, then the two of them left the place, Shi Anran went to look for Third Prince, and after obtaining the news, he headed in the direction of the flower garden.
The so called Drunken Heart Pavilion in the palace was like a willow tree swaying in the water. The surrounding flowers were all around him, so how could he not be intoxicated by it?
From a distance, looking at his lonely and helpless back, Shi Anran felt as if he could feel the desolation in his heart right now. However, whether it was desolation or loneliness, it had nothing to do with him in the end, right?
“Since we met, why didn’t you come over?” The faint and gentle voice of the Third Prince was like a gentle breeze approaching autumn. It felt at the same time as it felt warmth, it also carried a bone piercing coldness.
Shi Anran knew that shshecould not avoid it, so she went forward to welcome him. Moreover, he had specifically come to find him, wouldn’t leaving just be a waste of time?
Shi Anran slowly walked to the back of the Third Prince and lightly said: “I want to let the Third Prince investigate the entire hospital’s situation. I keep having the feeling that this matter has something to do with the hospital.”
“Yes, your intuition has always been accurate.” Li Mu nodded his head and agreed, then continued: “I will do as you say, but I will not have the chance from now on!”
“Thank you Third Prince.” Shi Anran lowered his eyes and lightly said.
“There’s no need for you to thank me. You should keep your thanks for later!” After saying that, she smiled, which was extremely dazzling.
Shi Anran also gave a shallow smile, but she then heard the Third Prince question: “Other than that, what else did you come find me for? There is no need to hide it from me. ”
He could even guess at this? Shi Anran could only smile helplessly, then continued to speak with a gentle and gentle voice: “Third Prince, actually, I have already suspected a certain person, but I have been unable to find any evidence, so I have come to ask for Third Prince’s help.”
Li Mu looked at her, deep in thought, and said: “If you have something to say, say it, what you are hesitating to say is not your usual style as to how you would dare to do things, right?”
Was she such a person in her normal life? As she thought about it, Shi Anran pursed her lips and said, “I’m worried that during my investigation, someone might harm Liu Yue, so can Third Prince protect Liu Yue for me?”
After hearing this, Li Mu seemed to have thought about it, and in the end, neither nodded nor shook his head: “You think too highly of me, I’m powerless to do what you want to do.” Even if his ability could control everything, he might not do so.
Shi Anran only felt that he was very cold and detached. But Shi Anran actually still held onto that small bit of hope, even though Li Mu had promised to do his best but to no avail … Unfortunately, even this tiny bit of hope was not something Li Mu was willing to give her.
“So it’s like that, Anran has disturbed Third Prince, farewell!” Since he was unwilling to help, then so be it. But at the same time, how could a man like the Third Prince only do things that were beneficial to him? Thinking about it, Shi Anran laughed coldly in her heart.
It was unknown why, but when Li Mu saw her expression, he suddenly felt suffocated in his heart. The moment she turned around, he said: “I will do my best.
