Chapter 623: As she wished, she went crazy
Just when she was extremely anxious, the queen came out of the palace.
"Queen, how is the emperor doing?" the Queen Mother asked immediately.
"Empress Dowager, please don't worry. I just went into the store and saw that Doctor Zhong was treating the emperor. Doctor Zhong said that the emperor's condition was very strange. It didn't look like he was poisoned, nor did he have any sudden emergency. It seemed that he was possessed by evil spirits! I think this matter must be related to the Rong Kingdom. The emperor also agreed to capture the Empress Dowager and the little emperor of Rong Kingdom first and investigate the matter immediately."
"Rong Guo actually has such courage! They should all be captured and interrogated." The Queen Mother was furious, and suddenly, she bypassed the Queen and rushed into the palace!
"Let me go in and see the emperor!"
The inner court guards standing guard outside the palace immediately stood in front of the Queen Mother.
"Asshole! How dare you stop me! Get out of the way!" the Queen Mother shouted.
"Empress Dowager, the Emperor has another order, asking you to return to the palace first." The Queen's voice came from behind the Empress Dowager.
"Empress! What do you mean? Only you can see the emperor. I am the emperor's mother. Can't I see the emperor at this time?"
"This is the Emperor's order. I am not trying to stop the Empress Dowager. I do not have such great power. If the Empress Dowager does not leave on her own, I am afraid that the inner court guards will have to send her back."
"You!" The Queen Mother glared at the Queen.
"Someone, send the Queen Mother back to the palace." The Queen gave an order.
The inner court guards immediately stepped forward and lifted up the empress dowager.
The people in the Queen Mother's Palace were suddenly in chaos.
"Empress Dowager! How dare you be so disrespectful to her! Put her down now."
The empress dowager was also stunned. Before she could come to her senses, she was placed on the sedan chair.
Several inner court guards lifted up the sedan chair and sent the empress dowager back to the palace.
The queen felt happy when she saw the miserable state of the queen mother.
I looked up at the starry night sky and couldn't help laughing. As I laughed, tears rolled down from the corners of my eyes.
She had fantasized countless times before, killing the emperor! Killing the queen mother! Killing the ***!
Now, my wish has finally come true, and things are going so smoothly!
It seems that God is on her side!
Don’t be impatient. First it’s the Emperor, then the Queen Mother, and then the Queen Mother… No one can escape!
Anyone who stands in her way must die!
The Empress Dowager's sedan chair was carried all the way into the palace before being put down.
Soon after, the maids from the Empress Dowager's palace also ran in, each one gasping for breath.
As soon as these people came in, the palace gate was closed.
"What are you going to do?" the steward in the Queen Mother's palace shouted.
"By order of the Emperor, everyone must be under the control of the inner court guards until the Emperor is out of danger."
"Rebellion! Rebellion!" The Queen Mother slapped her thigh in anger.
However, she had no real power in this palace. The only people she could mobilize around her were palace maids and eunuchs. Although she was also assigned guards to protect her safety, they were arranged by the emperor and she only obeyed the emperor's orders.
One thing made her feel at ease.
She had no real power, and neither did the Queen.
……
at the same time.
Chang Ru was feeding the Fourth Prince medicine.
The fourth prince was demoted to a commoner. When he left the palace, he was only accompanied by Su Su and two palace maids. However, all of Chang Ru's dowry returned.
This yard was also rented by them temporarily.
Fortunately, Chang Ru's dowry was quite generous, so she would not have to live too badly in the short term.
Now, she had no time to think too much and could only hope that the Fourth Prince would recover soon.
Suddenly, a sharp arrow pierced through the window and hit the table directly!
Chang Ru was so frightened that she knocked over the bowl of medicine in her hand.
The Fourth Prince also looked up at the sharp arrow on the table.
Could it be that someone wants to take his life at this time?
Chang Ru plucked up her courage and picked up the sharp arrow, on which was tied a letter.
She opened the letter and saw only one line of words written on it: "Escape from the imperial capital before the hour of Hai, otherwise, you will be killed."
"What is it?" the Fourth Prince asked weakly.
"It's a letter asking us to flee the imperial capital before midnight, otherwise we will be killed." Chang Ru said solemnly.
The fourth prince chuckled, as if he didn't take these words to heart.
"It's another trap. If I run away now, I'm afraid my father will kill me!"
"Your Highness, there is a special fragrance on this letter. Could it be written by a woman?"
"Susu knows how to make perfume. Ask her to come in and ask if there is anything special about this perfume."
Chang Ru immediately asked someone to call Susu in.
Susu took the letter and smelled it, and her brows immediately frowned.
"How is it? Is there anything wrong with this incense?" Chang Ru asked anxiously.
"My Lord, I feel that this scent is somewhat familiar, as if I have smelled it somewhere before."
"Think about it carefully. You stay in the palace all year round. This fragrance might come from someone in the palace." Chang Ru reminded.
She felt that the fragrance was not like that of ordinary spices, but should be precious spices.
"I remember now! It's the Crown Prince's wife. She has this kind of fragrance, different from others, with a refreshing smell, just like the scent of cold plum blossoms blooming on snowy branches in winter!"
"Crown Prince's Wife? Are you sure?" Chang Ru confirmed again.
"My lord, I am very sure!" Susu nodded confidently.
"What is Ji Chuhe's intention in suddenly asking someone to deliver this letter to us?" The Fourth Prince couldn't figure it out.
"Your Highness, didn't the Crown Prince's wife take refuge with the Empress Dowager? It was the Crown Prince's wife who advised the Empress Dowager on your marriage with your wife. There is a banquet being held in the palace today. Did something happen in the palace?" Susu responded in a low voice.
"Send someone to the palace to find out the news and we'll know if anything has happened in the palace." Chang Ru did not take it lightly, but was very vigilant.
"Master, I am willing to go and find out the situation." Susu immediately asked.
Chang Ru had no other choice but Susu. The people around her were newcomers and might not even be able to find the direction of the palace, let alone find out useful information.
"Okay, go ahead and come back soon."
"Yes, master." Susu immediately retreated.
Although Chang Ru was very wary of Su Su, Su Su had never shown any disrespect to her. Instead, she was very kind to her and treated her like her master. Chang Ru had very complicated feelings towards Su Su.
"Your Highness, let's also prepare. If something really happens in the palace, we should follow what is written in the letter and leave the imperial capital immediately. The emperor has only demoted you to a commoner, and has not ordered you not to leave the imperial capital."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." The Fourth Prince did not insist.
Chang Ru immediately ordered people to prepare things. As long as they got the news from Yuan Su, they would immediately flee the imperial capital.
……
in the palace.
A team of palace guards suddenly rushed into the hall where the banquet was held.
Without further ado, they went forward and arrested the Queen Mother and the young Emperor of Rong.
