The Empress Dowager lost her temper, her mouth crooked even more, and her saliva flowed out. The palace maid next to her saw this and hurriedly stepped forward to wipe the saliva for her.
"Get out!" The Empress Dowager pushed the maid away and drove her out of the room.
Lu Wushuang was still standing in the same place, unable to recover for a long time.
"You still remember him, don't you?" The Empress Dowager asked, reaching out and pulling Lu Wushuang's sleeve.
"He …" Lu Wushuang came back to her senses and stared at the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager's expression was grim, her mouth crooked to one side, drooling as she spoke. "If it weren't for Ye Zhen, he could at least dote on you for a longer time, and you would not end up like this. It's not that he fell in love with someone else, it's that evildoer Ye Zhen who bewitched him."
Lu Wushuang burst into tears. "He ignores me."
"What are you crying for? What's there to cry about? " The Empress Dowager's fingers trembled with anger. "How did you become like this? You used to be cruel and merciless, why didn't you kill Ye Zhen?"
"Empress Dowager … Empress Dowager …" Lu Wushuang was so frightened that she burst into tears. She didn't understand what the Empress Dowager was talking about. She couldn't remember anything.
The Empress Dowager looked at the weeping Lu Wushuang and remembered that she didn't even know how to hold chopsticks to eat at first. She was worse than a child. Suddenly, she felt disheartened. This Lu Wushuang was no longer the former Imperial Concubine Lu, but a cripple tortured by Ye Zhen.
"Forget it." The Empress Dowager sighed as she lay on the bed. What else could she do now that she was like this?
When Mo Rongyi returned, he saw that the Empress Dowager's mouth was more crooked than yesterday, and she was drooling all the time. He hurriedly sent for the imperial doctor.
"Mother, the most important thing for you now is to recuperate. Don't worry about other things." Mo Rongyi wiped the Empress Dowager's saliva with a towel. Seeing the Empress Dowager like this, he was also upset.
The Empress Dowager's eyes were red, and tears were swirling in her eyes. She held Mo Rongyi's hand. "Ah Yi, believe me, that woman … is an evildoer. She is Ye Zhen. She came back to life."
Mo Rongyi frowned and whispered, "Mother, Ye Zhen died a long time ago. Sister-in-law and Ye Zhen are twin sisters. It is not unusual for them to look the same."
"No, no, she is really Ye Zhen. The one who died is Lu Yaoyao." The Empress Dowager held Mo Rongyi's hand tightly. "You must be careful. Don't let him harm you."
"Did you forget that my life was saved by sister-in-law? She saved me twice. If she wanted to harm me, I would have been dead long ago." Mo Rongyi said with a smile. He only felt that what the Empress Dowager said was all her imagination. Ye Zhen was burned to death by Lu Lingzhi in Prince Qin's Mansion. At that time, his sister-in-law was still in the border town.
The Empress Dowager shook her head. "You don't know. You've been deceived."
At this moment, the imperial physician had arrived.
Mo Rongyi said to the Empress Dowager, "Mother, let the Imperial Physician take a look at you."
The Empress Dowager looked at Mo Rongyi. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't.
"Xiao Wangye, the Empress Dowager needs to rest and recuperate from her illness. These past two days, she has been getting better, but because she had a fit of anger just now, her condition has worsened. If this continues, I'm afraid she won't be able to move half her body." The Imperial Physician whispered to Mo Rongyi.
Mo Rongyi nodded solemnly. "This Prince understands."
…
…
Mo Rongzhan left Prince Yi's Mansion with Ye Zhen.
"Is the Empress Dowager's illness real?" Mo Rongzhan took Ye Zhen's hand. He had little feelings for the Empress Dowager, not to mention that he was now Emperor Mo. He had no deep feelings for everything in the human world before, especially for the Empress Dowager.
"It's true, I've taken her pulse." Ye Zhen said, "The Empress Dowager is old and has dementia, but Lu Wushuang … I don't know how she left the Yuan Kingdom. She happened to meet her and bring her back to the palace."
Mo Rongzhan looked down at her. He remembered that she used to mind seeing Lu Wushuang.
"What's wrong?" Ye Zhen was puzzled by his stare and asked with a smile, "Is there something on my face?"
"Since Lu Wushuang is suspicious, why do you still let her stay in Prince Yi's Mansion?" Mo Rongzhan frowned.
Ye Zhen said, "I can't judge whether her stupidity is real or not, but someone must have arranged for her to come to the Empress Dowager's side. If she is driven away, how can we know who this person is?"
"Ye Wei." Mo Rongzhan said faintly.
"What?" Ye Zhen froze for a moment, not understanding what Mo Rongzhan meant.
Mo Rongzhan said, "Ye Wei is the Hall Master Wei we are looking for. Her surname is not Wei, but Hall Master Wei."
Ye Zhen's face changed slightly, "She is Hall Master Wei, isn't that … she is the Blood Demon?"
"I haven't seen her yet, so I can't be sure." Mo Rongzhan whispered, "The disappearance of the people from all the sects in the world two years ago should have something to do with her."
"She didn't turn those people into blood insects, did she?" If Ye Wei was the Blood Demon, it was really possible!
Mo Rongzhan said in a deep voice, "Maybe she did it. If it is her, then she must know where the great monster is."
Ye Zhen rubbed her eyebrows. She didn't expect Hall Master Wei to be Ye Wei. She always thought that Hall Master Wei should be a man. It turned out that this Hall Master Wei was Ye Wei. When did she become the Blood Demon? Was it before or after she left the Yunluo Palace?
"It is impossible for a Blood Demon to cultivate in a day or two. If I'm not mistaken, the great monster has been in the human world for some time. There must be another gap in this world that leads to the Desolate Hell. Those missing people should have been cultivated into blood insects." Mo Rongzhan said.
Ye Zhen took a deep breath, "The situation in the human world is more serious than I thought. What should we do next?"
"Go to Yuan Country." Mo Rongzhan said.
"Good." Ye Zhen nodded, "It seems that Lu Wushuang was also released by Ye Wei. It was also Ye Wei who turned her into what she is today. She wants to deal with me."
Mo Rongzhan's eyebrows were covered with a layer of cold light. "Kill Lu Wushuang."
"I don't know how the Empress Dowager knows that I am Ye Zhen. If I kill Lu Wushuang, she will not be able to bear it." Ye Zhen shook her head. She subconsciously felt that she could not kill Lu Wushuang at this time.
"I will have someone keep an eye on Lu Wushuang. Let's go to Yuan Country first."
"By the way, Ah Ke wants to go on patrol incognito. Most likely, he wants to investigate this matter. Do you want to make it clear to him?" Ye Zhen remembered that Murong Ke wanted to go on patrol incognito. Now that the matter has been found out, should she tell him?
Mo Rongzhan frowned and thought for a while. "Don't tell him about the great monster and the blood demon for the time being. If he wants to go on patrol incognito, he can go. He can cover for us."
"He has looked for you several times. Go to the palace and see him." Ye Zhen said.
"Did something happen?" Mo Rongzhan looked down at her.
Ye Zhen shook her head and said, "No, I just think that his thoughts are too heavy. It would be good if you can persuade him."
Mo Rongzhan's eyes were slightly cold. "Well, I will go to the palace in a while."
