MTL - After the Divorce, I Was Spoiled By the Prince-Chapter 1469 undercurrent
Chapter 1469 Undercurrent surges
Qin Zhao quickly wiped away his tears: "I, I just can't bear him, it's okay, I'll take it easy."
Except for the last time she was pregnant with Xiaoatom, she deliberately avoided Xiao Ce, and she and Xiao Ce had never been separated for too long.
But that time, they were all in the same palace.
This time, they are not only separated by tens of thousands of miles, but also separated by an unpredictable fate.
No matter how good their calculations are, if they still can't win the plot master's traction, will they still be separated in the end?
"The emperor will come back safely. The emperor likes the empress so much, how can he be willing to leave the empress for too long?" Baozhu comforted softly.
Qin Zhao nodded, feeling that what Baozhu said made sense.
So when Xiao Ce was away, she not only had to protect the child, but also herself.
Once Xiao Ce leaves, all forces in Beijing and China will definitely be ready to move. Right now the outside world doesn't know that Xiao Ce is not in the palace, if they know, the harem is not so safe.
What she is most worried about is that without Xiao Ce's suppression, Xiao Yi will have no scruples.
Qin Zhao thought wildly for a while, and finally got tired and fell asleep drowsily.
An Wangfu.
Sai Qing went to find Xiao Yi as soon as he woke up, "I want to enter the palace!"
Xiao Yi glanced at Sai Qing coldly, thinking to himself what evil he did in his previous life, how could he marry such a princess?
"Xiao Yi, didn't you hear what I said? It was said that Xiao Ce was dying, and I wanted to go to the palace to see him." Sai Qing rushed to Xiao Yi with a piercing voice.
Xiao Yi didn't want to talk to such a woman, so he ordered in a deep voice: "Come here, take the princess down. Without my king's order, she must not step out of the other garden!"
As soon as he finished speaking, two servant girls as strong as cattle came in and dragged Sai Qinglian away.
Sai Qing was taken away, and Sun Yuhao came to Xiao Yi and said: "The news about the Hall of Mental Cultivation is still blocked, and our people cannot enter the Hall of Mental Cultivation, so we cannot find out whether the current emperor is seriously ill."
"Brother Huang suddenly became seriously ill. This matter is very strange. Let's wait and see first, and don't act rashly." Xiao Yi opened his lips indifferently.
"Does Your Highness want to go into the palace to find out in person? After all, the emperor is seriously ill. As the emperor's brother, it is normal to visit the sick." Sun Yuhao said bluntly.
Xiao Yi nodded slightly: "It is still necessary to put on a show. The king will enter the palace later, but this time he will definitely not be able to enter the Hall of Mental Cultivation."
What he is most afraid of is that Xiao Ce is playing some kind of trick, or that this is a conspiracy against him, and he can't be careless.
An hour later, Xiao Yi entered the palace and went to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but was blocked by the guards and was not allowed to enter.
"Is the sister-in-law still in the Hall of Mental Cultivation?!" Xiao Yi asked casually.
The guard replied truthfully: "The Empress is serving the sick in the Hall of Mental Cultivation."
"Where is Ah Yuan?" Xiao Yi asked again.
"His Royal Highness is also serving the sick."
Xiao Yi looked at the Hall of Mental Cultivation for a while without stopping, and then went to Shoukang Palace.
The Empress Dowager is in the bedroom, she looks depressed.
The moment she saw Xiao Yi, the Empress Dowager's eyes lit up: "Have you ever seen Ah Ce?"
Xiao Yi had come here to check on the news. Seeing the empress dowager's expression, his heart sank.
"Just now I went to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but was blocked outside, so I couldn't see Brother Huang. However, according to the guards guarding the palace, Brother Huang is fine. Has the Grandmother ever visited Brother Huang?" Xiao Yi tentatively tried.
"The Ai family wanted to know about Ah Ce's situation, but Zhao girl came out and told the Ai family that Ah Ce's condition was fine, and told the Ai family not to believe the rumors outside. Ah Ce has always trusted Zhao girl the most, and Zhao girl is another If you are sensible, Aijia will not force you any more." The Empress Dowager gave an overview of her visit to the Hall of Mental Cultivation yesterday.
Of course Qin Zhao couldn't be the master like this, he just followed Xiao Ce's order to block her.
It must have happened that something big happened, so Qin Zhao would play tricks.
Right now, she can only wait for news from the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
After hearing what the Empress Dowager said, Xiao Yi knew that he couldn't find out the real situation here.
Xiao Ce suddenly fell ill at this point in time, and he didn't allow anyone to enter the Hall of Mental Cultivation to inquire about the situation, there are nothing more than two possibilities. One is that Xiao Ce is seriously ill, and the other is Xiao Ce's conspiracy.
After returning to Prince An's Mansion, Xiao Yi took out the secret letter sent from Dayuezhi a few days ago, and the sender was Yongning.
Yongning asked him to attack Xiao Ce.
In fact, Xiao Yi himself had this plan long ago, but he has not been able to carry out this plan, and he has already prepared the poison.
He didn't know what kind of poison it was, only the poison was divided into two parts, and the main drug was colorless and tasteless. The poisoned person will add another medicine primer later, and the poisoned person will be hard to find life.
After he got the poison, he kept thinking about how to poison Xiao Ce, but at this moment, Xiao Ce fell down. Was the timing too coincidental?
This thought was fleeting, and he rejected it.
Everyone around him can believe that it is impossible for anyone to betray him, especially the valet, so Xiao Ce will not know about Yongning's conspiracy.
Or maybe this is destiny. God also couldn't bear Xiao Ce's smooth sailing, so Xiao Ce contracted a terminal illness.
Of course, even he himself didn't believe in this possibility.
He still prefers to believe that this is a trap set by Xiao Ce.
Time passed day by day, and the news about Xiao Ce's critical illness was even more varied day by day. Some people also said that Xiao Ce had only one breath left.
Qin Zhao still stayed in the Hall of Mental Cultivation and did not come out, because no one knew the situation of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and everyone could only rely on guesswork.
Seeing that on the twenty-eighth day of the first lunar month, Zuo Zhaorong came to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, wanting to face the saint.
The guards blocked Zuo Zhaorong's way as before, but Zuo Zhaorong had no choice but to ask to see Qin Zhao.
After waiting for a quarter of an hour, Qin Zhao, haggard and pale, came out.
"Is sister okay?" Zuo Zhaorong's eyes turned red the moment he saw Qin Zhao.
Qin Zhao showed a smile: "I'm fine. I didn't rest well last night. My sister doesn't need to worry."
"Is the emperor okay?" Zuo Zhaorong asked again.
Qin Zhao didn't seem to expect that she would suddenly ask Xiao Ce, her face was blank for a moment, and soon she returned to normal: "The emperor is fine, sister, don't worry."
"It's good that the emperor is fine." Seeing Qin Zhao's haggard look, Zuo Zhaorong said softly, "Sister, go back and rest. If you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the child in your belly."
Qin Zhao had no objection, turned around and returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
Zuo Zhaorong stood outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation for a long time in a daze, and then left with a heavy heart.
Although news had spread that Qin Zhao’s Qianqiu Banquet would not be held this year, Zuo Zhaorong still came to Qin Zhao on the first day of February to ask Qin Zhao’s opinion on this matter.
"Birthdays are celebrated every year, and there is nothing special about it. This year's birthday is just for me to be with the emperor." Qin Zhao said calmly.
"Then... the Empress Dowager is going to come to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to celebrate her sister's birthday?!" Zuo Zhaorong asked tentatively.
