Chapter 899: Rumors Spread
"Huh?" Xue Jinyi asked blankly, "You don't want to eat raisins?" I asked Jin Yang to get it from Shao Wulang, and it is said to be the best food in the whole capital. ”
Seeing that Xue Jinyi was about to take back the raisins, Qinglan stopped her and whispered, "Princess Xie." ”
Xue Jinyi saw that her little face was redder than an apple, and she didn't continue to tease her, and stuffed the raisins into her hands, "Take it and eat it." ”
Qinglan happily held the raisins and glanced at Jin Yang quickly.
Back in the main courtyard, Xue Jinyi slept on the soft couch by the window for a while, after Qinglan trotted out with a smile, she quietly opened her eyes, looked out the window, saw her and Jin Yang's backs, and couldn't help but hook the corners of her lips.
Before the three-day deadline arrived, news came from the palace first.
"The emperor is critically ill and is dying."
The people who were originally guarding the spirit in Fengyi Palace, all ran to the Liangyi Hall and knelt, crying and praying to God to give him a chance to live a long life.
The people also went to the Taoist temple and temple in the city to pray for the emperor, and for a while the capital was shrouded in a sad atmosphere, as if the emperor was about to die, and the disappointing prince His Royal Highness will ascend the throne as the emperor, bringing disaster to the Great Zhoudi!
"How is this possible?!" Father-in-law Ning's face turned pale, "The slave maid went to see the emperor that day, although her complexion was not very good, but she would not be in danger so soon, right?" ”
He was so anxious that he burst into tears, which soon wet his clothes.
"The slave is willing to live for 30 years, and only wants the emperor to be safe and secure...... If the emperor has three longs and two shorts, the slaves and maids don't want to live! ”
Xue Jinyi handed over a handkerchief, "Gonggong Ning, don't worry, it is said that the emperor's situation will not deteriorate so quickly, in my opinion, it is the Cai family who deliberately released such a rumor and forced the king of Chu to do it, so that the Cai family will have an excuse to get rid of the king of Chu." ”
"Really, is it really like this......" Father-in-law Ning choked up, and a handkerchief was quickly soaked with tears.
Xue Jinyi said: "Father-in-law Ning, you have been with the emperor for so many years, and you are also a smart person?" At this time, don't be cranky because of sadness and fear. ”
Father-in-law Ning wiped his tears, "The slave is too worried about the emperor." ”
Xue Jinyi sighed, "Who of us isn't worried? But the more we have to force ourselves to calm down, only a clear mind can help us go further. ”
Gonggong Ning looked at Xue Jinyi and still cried.
Xue Jinyi's eyes also turned red, "Father-in-law Ning, if you keep crying, I will cry too...... You see me like I'm a nobody, but I'm anxious and bitter......"
Crystal tears poured out of her eyes instantly, like pearls with broken threads.
The atmosphere of sorrow spread in an instant, like a flood bursting the embankment, monstrous to the earth.
Gonggong Ning was stunned and couldn't help but burp.
Xue Jinyi wiped the corners of her eyes and said with a crying voice: "I force myself to be strong, to support this family well with His Royal Highness the King of Chu, and to live up to my father's expectations of us...... However, I couldn't sleep much every night, and I kept thinking about how my father was lying alone in the Liangyi Palace, how was his body, and would it be serious again......
As she spoke, she took out another handkerchief and wept bitterly.
"There is also the King of Chu, he is not a sage, there is no perfect person, I am worried that he will be caught by the Cai family because of a small mistake, and he will be killed...... How worried about Cai's success is that the world will ...... The country that my father had worked so hard to build was about to fall into dire straits, and the people would not have a peaceful life......"
Her voice was so sad that everyone around her couldn't help but cry.
Gonggong Ning cried loudly, crying but persuading, "Princess, you are pregnant with the emperor's heir, that is the grandson that the emperor misses, and you can't be so sad and hurt yourself and your children!" ”
Xue Jinyi couldn't stop crying at all, "Father-in-law Ning, I'm really scared, how I hope that every time I close my eyes and open my eyes again, I will find that all this is fake, and my father is still fine......"
"Princess......" Gonggong Ning couldn't help but regret when he saw Xue Jinyi crying bitterly.
He himself is weak and incompetent, so he should find a place to cry secretly, causing Princess Chu to have an emotional breakdown, crying so much that he can't stop crying, he really can't escape the blame for hurting his body like this.
"Princess, it's not good to be a slave, a slave makes you cry." He simply knelt down in front of Xue Jinyi, "Princess, please don't cry." ”
Xue Jinyi cried even louder.
Father-in-law Ning beat his chest in remorse, and the room suddenly burst into tears.
Qinglan cried and spoke: "Gonggong Ning, the princess is right, this must be the conspiracy of the Cai family, the emperor must be good, the antidote will be made soon, and the emperor will definitely be fine." ”
"Yes, yes, the emperor will be fine." Gonggong Ning nodded like a chicken pecking rice, "Princess, it's all because the slave maid was confused for a while, and I can't figure out the reason." The Cai family hated His Royal Highness the King of Chu, but it was not good for His Royal Highness the King of Chu to attack at this time, so he deliberately released the call of the emperor to be seriously ill, forcing the King of Chu to be desperate and raise troops to seize power. ”
Xue Jinyi was still crying and didn't respond.
Father-in-law Ning looked at Qinglan helplessly.
Qinglan said: "I'll ask Doctor Zhu to come and have a princess." ”
Soon, Dr. Zhu came and brought a bowl of tranquil soup.
Xue Jinyi drank this bowl of "Tranquility Soup", and her mood gradually stabilized, sobbing lowly, leaning on the soft couch.
Father-in-law Ning blamed himself and said: "Princess, it's useless to be a slave, please punish you." ”
"Father-in-law Ning, you are also worried about the emperor." Xue Jinyi said in a dumb voice.
She covered most of her face with a handkerchief, and one of her exposed eyes was full of tears, and I felt pity.
"Father-in-law Ning, you go back and rest first, don't think nonsense......" she said, her voice choked again, obviously when she comforted others not to think nonsense, she was thinking about things and not being at peace.
"Princess......
Qinglan said: "Father-in-law Ning, you can go and rest, the princess is taken care of by us here." ”
Seeing this, Gonggong Ning did not force him to stay, "Princess, you must have a good rest." The slave and maid took their leave. ”
Xue Jinyi nodded slowly.
Ning Gonggong announced that Qinglan would take good care of Xue Jinyi and leave the house.
When Father-in-law Ning came out of the main courtyard, Xue Jinyi breathed a sigh of relief and threw away the veil.
The person who was still in tears and grief just now, in the blink of an eye, lay comfortably on the soft couch like a nobody, except for some sour eyes, there was no discomfort.
Qinglan was shocked: "Princess, you changed your face too quickly, right?" ”
As an actor, this is a basic requirement! Xue Jinyi patted her hand, "Now, it can always make Gonggong Ning believe that we are sincerely worried about the emperor's safety, right?" ”
