The late night in the capital is as calm and tranquil as ever.

In a certain courtyard of the Chu Palace, there was only one candle lit.

Pu Yangxuan put a cloak on Xue Jinyi's shoulder, "The night breeze is cold, go back to the house and sleep for a while, right?" ”

"I've rested for a long time during the day, and now I'm not sleepy at all." Xue Jinyi shook her head, looked at the unconscious person on the soft couch, and then looked at the bamboo doctor in the corner, under the only candlelight, who was concentrating on researching something.

Pu Yangxuan sat down beside her helplessly, "I think, you should quietly leave the capital first and go to a safe place." The place where I placed Yan Bi back before is the safest now. ”

Xue Jinyi wrapped her arms around Pu Yangxuan, "We haven't bet for a long time, right?" ”

Pu Yangxuan knew what she wanted to bet on, so she refused, "Don't." ”

He didn't want to bet on Ah Jin's life.

Xue Jinyi shook his arm with a smile and said coquettishly: "Ah Xuan, I'm going to bet!" ”

"Ah Jin......" Pu Yangxuan sighed.

Xue Jinyi suddenly said: "I dare to say, the prince and the Cai family don't dare to do anything to us, you see, they haven't killed us yet." Moreover, my father told us not to move, and I dare to say that although it was a bit of a surprise, everything was still in my father's calculations. Let's just sit back and wait for profit. ”

Sometimes, they really don't need to do everything themselves, cross Erlang's legs, wait for the results leisurely, save worry and effort, and then use their energy on more important things.

Pu Yangxuan actually understood the truth, but he was too nervous about Ah Jin's safety and their unborn child.

Xue Jinyi continued to hug Pu Yangxuan's arm, "I don't care, since we got married, we have been glued together, and I will stick to you to death." ”

Pu Yangxuan smiled, "You, you must have eaten countless bear-hearted leopard galls, and no one is as bold as you." ”

"Hee-hee." Xue Jinyi smiled at him proudly, "What about your lady, it's so powerful!" ”

Pu Yangxuan touched her hair, he would do his best to protect his wife.

"Shhh

Xue Jinyi and Pu Yangxuan looked over at the same time.

Pu Yangxuan motioned for Xue Jinyi to sit down, came to the soft couch by herself, and called, "Father-in-law Ning?" ”

"Your Majesty!" Gonggong Ning suddenly opened his eyes, and a carp stood up, and he got up from the soft couch, "Your Majesty, where is the Emperor, how is the Emperor?!" ”

He looked around in a panic, and finally saw that the person standing next to him was Pu Yangxuan under the dim light.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu......" He remembered everything he had come to the Chu King's Mansion after escaping from the secret passage in the palace, and the words that he hadn't had time to finish before he passed out, "His Royal Highness the King of Chu, the emperor is poisoned, and the phoenix hairpin is poisoned!" ”

Pu Yangxuan patted Father-in-law Ning's shoulder comfortingly and pointed at Doctor Zhu, "Doctor Zhu is already studying." ”

Gonggong Ning asked, "Can you find a way to detoxify?" ”

"Not necessarily."

It was Dr. Bamboo who answered him.

"......" Ning Gong almost rolled his eyes and fainted again.

Pu Yangxuan gave a look, hoping that Dr. Zhu would speak angrily and tactfully.

Doctor Zhu shrugged helplessly, "It's better than giving hope and then being disappointed." ”

"......" everyone was speechless.

However, everyone has long been accustomed to Dr. Zhu's character, Xue Jinyi asked: "According to my father's wishes, we are currently standing still, and tomorrow the court will be the same as in the past, right?" ”

"Yes, yes." Father-in-law Ning said as he stroked his chest.

rushed out of the palace all the way, he was out of breath, and his chest hurt badly, so he couldn't say a few words to the king and princess of Chu, and he fainted uselessly.

"Although the situation has changed a little, it is better to follow the original plan." Speaking of this, Father-in-law Ning actually had a headache and was very helpless.

Although the emperor is old, his "fun-loving" heart can't change.

I'm afraid I'll get away with it one day......

Xue Jinyi looked at Pu Yangxuan with a smile, "Did you hear it, I won't leave you, leave the Chu Palace, and leave the capital!" ”

Pu Yangxuan pinched his eyebrows, and replied with a smile: "Yes, I will hold your hand tightly, you can't leave if you want to!" ”

"Enough of you two." Doctor Zhu rubbed his shoulders, "On this hot day, my goosebumps are about to fall to the ground, and I am cold to death." ”

Xue Jinyi and Pu Yangxuan looked at each other and smiled.

Doctor Zhu waved his hand at them, "You guys hurry up, don't disturb me to study the poison on this phoenix hairpin." Otherwise, if I can't save the emperor......" he shrugged his shoulders, "it's not that I can't sit on the throne anyway." ”

Xue Jinyi said to Ning Gong: "You are just going to be born in the palace of the king of Chu to recuperate, let's go first." ”

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness the King of Chu, Princess." Gonggong Ning respectfully owed them a bow, "The slave and maid will rest for a while, and I still have to go back to the palace to see the emperor's situation, so I can tell you." ”

"Okay." Pu Yangxuan nodded.

Xue Jinyi and Pu Yangxuan came out of the courtyard hand in hand and walked towards the main courtyard, the moonlight sprinkled on the ground, illuminating the way forward for them.

The gentle night breeze gently blew across their cheeks, and Xue Jinyi smiled and leaned on Pu Yangxuan's arm.

The situation in the palace is ever-changing, but one thing will not change-

They are still on the right path and closer to the finish line.

On the second day, the officials who woke up from a good sleep and went to the morning court normally, whether they pretended to be or did not know in advance, were all shocked.

The day before, the emperor actually encountered an assassin, the palace was in chaos, Queen Cai was killed by the assassin in order to protect the emperor, but the disaster was finally controlled, but the emperor still fell ill because of his injury, and confessed to the prince to supervise the country.

But the prince, who hadn't appeared in front of people for a long time, only let people see a faint figure through the bead curtain and hear a weak voice.

"Father also hopes that I can use this to show you your heart to change your ways, and ask your ministers to supervise and teach me."

The ministers should go down and say a few polite words.

Uncle Cai, who was standing at the head of the team, glanced around arrogantly, and finally his eyes fell on Pu Yangxuan's body, with deep hatred flashing in his eyes, but the corners of his mouth were also a vicious smile, and he said: "The emperor remembered that the prince is still too young and needs a reliable person by his side, so he ordered me to be an assistant minister, and my status is above the three provinces." ”

Liu Shizhong was dissatisfied, "Uncle Cai, you haven't been an official for a day and have handled government affairs for a day, how dare you be this assistant minister?" ”

"Alas, in the past, in order to avoid suspicion, I had to bury my talent, but now that the emperor is sick, the prince is in charge of the country, and the queen mother was killed because of escorting, I, as the prince's closest relative, should stand up and bear due responsibility." Uncle Cai Guo shook his head and glanced at Liu Shizhong, "If Duke Liu is dissatisfied, you can ask the emperor?" ”

The emperor was unconscious, and it was in vain to ask.

Liu Shizhong pursed his lips, turned his head sideways, and didn't look at the villain's proud Uncle Cai.

Liu Shizhong didn't mention this stubble, and the other courtiers naturally didn't speak.

Uncle Cai Guo coughed lightly twice, and his ill-intentioned gaze still fell on Puyang Xuan's body, "King Chu, you ......"
