Dongqing.
Ye Zhen was full of expectations that she would be able to see her brother tomorrow. She also prepared medicine for Li Heng for a few days and told Eunuch Su how to decoct the medicine. She would stay at home for at least two days.
In the evening, there was a sudden rumor that some palace servants were executed.
She didn't care about it at first, but in the middle of the night, she was woken up by a scream.
Ye Zhen woke up with a start and called in the little palace maid outside the door to ask her what happened.
The little palace maid's face was a little pale, and her lips were still trembling slightly. "Miss Lu, this servant doesn't know what happened. This servant saw many people being taken away by the housekeeper."
Something must have happened in the palace!
Ye Zhen was shocked. What else could have happened at this time?
"Miss Lu, Miss Lu!" Someone outside called Ye Zhen anxiously.
"What's the matter?" Ye Zhen hurried out. At this time, most likely Li Heng's body had changed.
The person who came to see her was Eunuch Su. His face was a little pale. "Miss Lu, please go and see the emperor. He was talking just now and suddenly fainted."
Ye Zhen was shocked. "How could this happen?"
She had already put on a jacket, and as she asked, she went to the bedroom with Eunuch Su.
In order to facilitate her treatment of Li Heng, she lived in the side hall of the Qian Long Palace. Originally, it was for the night guards, but Empress Fang specially ordered people to rearrange it for Ye Zhen.
When she came to the bedroom, Ye Zhen was even more shocked when she saw the scene inside. It was already the middle of the night. How could Wan Guiren be here? And his face did not look good, paler than this morning.
"Miss Lu." When Empress Fang saw Ye Zhen, she hurriedly stood up from the bed. "Please take a look at the emperor."
Ye Zhen was afraid that Li Heng's illness had suddenly changed, and even more afraid that it would worsen.
"Empress, how did the emperor faint?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice. When she brought the medicine in the evening, Li Heng was still in a good mood and had a good appetite for dinner. It was impossible for his condition to suddenly worsen.
Hearing her question, Empress Fang turned her head and glared at Wan Guiren angrily. "That's because I was angry."
Ye Zhen was silent. She bowed her head and concentrated on taking Li Heng's pulse. She was sure that he fainted because he was too weak, just like in the morning. She breathed a sigh of relief and pressed hard on the emperor's chest.
Li Heng slowly woke up.
Empress Fang was delighted. "Your Majesty, you're awake?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this concubine is innocent. This concubine doesn't know anything." When Wan Guiren heard that the emperor had woken up, she knelt down and cried pitifully.
Li Hang's eyes were wide open for a while before he woke up. When he heard Wan Guiren's voice, his eyes flashed with disgust and remorse. Ye Zhen, who was standing next to him, clearly saw his expression.
It hadn't even been a day, but Li Heng's feelings towards Wan Guiren had already changed.
Empress Fang scolded Wan Guiren angrily, "Shut up! His Majesty was angered to this extent by you, what else do you have to say? "
Wan Guiren did not look at the Empress, but said to Li Heng, "This concubine didn't know about this at all. This concubine is innocent."
Li Heng sat up with Empress Fang's hand. After he learned that there was a problem with the Empress's medicine, he immediately sent people to the harem for a thorough investigation. The Empress had always been cautious. She even used her own people to cook the medicine, but it was this person who was threatened to bribe her. She used a medicine stove soaked with safflower to cook the medicine for the Empress. Even if there was only a little medicinal effect, it was enough to make the Empress, who was already in poor health, unable to conceive.
After being interrogated, this palace maid had revealed that the person who had given her the red flower was Guiren Wan's chief palace maid. Li Heng was enraged by this and had the entire Imperial Palace cleaned out that very night, taking away anyone who was related to Guifei Wan.
The only thing he didn't expect was that the woman he once loved sincerely, even disregarding the fact that she was Wan Guifei's niece, turned out to be the one who framed the Empress.
"That palace maid has been with you for a few years. She has been secretly harming the Empress. You don't know about this?" Li Heng asked coolly. His expression didn't look too good.
"That palace maid was arranged for me by my aunt. All these years, what she has done has nothing to do with me. I don't know," Wan Guiren cried out.
Li Heng sneered. How could he believe her again?
"Banish Wan Guiren to the Cold Palace. Zhen never wants to see her again," Li Heng said.
Wan Guiren's face paled. "Emperor, Emperor, this concubine is really innocent."
"You are not innocent. You already knew that the Wan Family left that palace maid to help you. You already knew there was a problem with her, but you turned a blind eye and pretended you didn't know anything. Even if this had nothing to do with you, you are still an accomplice."
Empress Fang looked coldly at Wan Guiren. She hadn't been able to get pregnant all these years because of the Wan Family. How could she forgive this woman?
"Your Majesty …" Wan Guiren cried. "Please, for the sake of the Third Prince, don't banish this concubine to the Cold Palace. I want to see him, I want to see him …"
"You are not worthy to be the Third Prince's mother." Li Heng said lightly and waved for Wan Guiren to be taken away.
Eunuch Su immediately let in two palace maids and dragged Wan Guiren away.
Ye Zhen, who had been hanging her head in silence, understood what was going on. It turned out that Empress Fang's inability to get pregnant was related to the concubines in the harem, but she didn't expect it to be because of this Wan Guifei.
"Miss Lu, I'm sorry to disturb you in the middle of the night." Li Heng looked at Ye Zhen and smiled faintly.
"Your Majesty, you really can't be so happy and angry anymore." Ye Zhen whispered. She really didn't want to hear that he had fainted one day and come to see that there was no hope.
Li Heng smiled bitterly and said, "It won't happen again."
Ye Zhen also understood him in her heart. Suddenly finding out that the person who caused his wife to be unable to get pregnant was the one he used to like, this must be quite a blow. "Your Majesty, then you should rest. This concubine will take her leave first."
She didn't want to know too many secrets of the palace. Who killed who, who had what conspiracy, these things had nothing to do with her.
Ye Zhen went back to her room and slept again. As for what Li Heng and Empress Fang would say and do, she didn't care. She was waiting for her father to pick her up and take her home tomorrow.
The next day, Ye Zhen went to decoct medicine for Li Heng in high spirits. She also wanted to give him acupuncture before leaving the palace.
However, she didn't expect that someone would come to see Li Heng today. Moreover, Li Heng even received him. It could be seen that he was a very trustworthy person.
These days, Li Heng had not seen any ministers except his father, which showed how important the person in the bedroom was today.
Ye Zhen walked in with the medicine. When she entered the bedroom and saw the figure sitting opposite Li Heng, she almost dropped the tray in her hand.
How could it be Murong Ke?
