In this way, the few of them returned to Prince Ding's Mansion in a swaggering manner.

As soon as I entered the yard, before I had time to go back to my room to change clothes, the imperial edict came down.

The decree was an oral order delivered personally by the deputy leader of the Fengying Guard.

The emperor has been poisoned and his life is in danger, so he asks Prince Ding and Princess Ding to enter the palace immediately.

Feng Ling returned home to find out what was going on in the palace so that he could respond specifically.

Who knew that I would receive such shocking news as soon as I got off the car.

His heart sank.

The Fengying Guard is the Queen Mother's absolute confidant.

He never leaves his mother's side easily.

But now, he had to go to Xuzhou first to deliver the secret letter.

Now that he has returned to the capital, even the oral order was delivered by the Fengying Guard.

Could it be that the other people in the palace are being monitored or controlled by someone?

Moreover, the Queen Mother was poisoned?

What kind of poison did he get? How did he get poisoned? Who poisoned him?

A series of question marks circled in my head.

Feng Ling did not hesitate for long. She had originally wanted to change her clothes before bringing the twins into the palace with Wang Xin.

I didn't expect the situation to be so serious.

He exchanged a glance with Wang Xin and said, "In that case, Jin'er and Xu'er should rest in the mansion with Hao'er and Xiaoge'er. They have traveled for so many days and should have a good rest. Let's go to the palace first to see what's going on."

Wang Xin understood his hint.

This is to let Haoge'er keep an eye on the three little ones. If there is any accident, it is best to stay in the space and wait for them to come back.

Wang Xin asked the system to pass a message to Erbao, and saw Hao Ge nodded slightly and gave her a "reassured" look.

Then he turned to Feng Ling and said, "Then let's go into the palace now, don't delay."

This time, the two of them entered the palace not in a carriage, but on horseback.

Soon, the group arrived at the palace gate.

The faces guarding the palace gate were not the familiar ones, but strangers.

Feng Ling took out the jade pendant to prove his identity.

The little leader smiled and said, "Your Highness, please forgive me! We received an imperial decree seven days ago. During this period, no matter who enters the palace, they will be strictly checked."

He pointed at Feng Ling's sword and said, "During this special period, the prince's sword cannot be brought into the palace."

Feng Ling sneered, threw the sword to the guard who followed him, and said, "Wait outside."

The guard bowed and responded, holding his sword and retreating to the back.

Feng Ling went through a series of examinations before being allowed to enter the palace.

The level of thoroughness is almost as thorough as a body search.

The veins on Feng Ling's arms were throbbing.

Something was clearly not right.

He endures.

It was Wang Xin's turn, and he checked more carefully.

She wasn't allowed to bring in her medicine box.

The reason given was that they were afraid that she might bring in something harmful.

Feng Ling's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot and he was about to have a fit.

Wang Xin patted his arm and calmed him down.

When the small leader asked Wang Xin to take off the phoenix-head white jade hairpin on his head for inspection, Feng Ling's anger suddenly became substantial and was about to condense into a sword. He wished he could pierce a hundred or eighty holes in the body of the small leader who was searching.

Wang Xin threw the hairpin into the medicine box, clapped his hands and said, "Then don't wear it, and leave it outside the palace."

She waved to the guard of Prince Ding's palace who was following her, put the medicine box in his hand, and said, "You don't have to follow me in. Wait at the palace gate."

She and Feng Ling had figured out that the operation at the palace gate was intended to delay time.

If we wait until all the guards who came with us have been checked one by one, who knows how long we will have to wait?

In this way, the two men were left with nothing, and the small leader of the guards no longer had an excuse to delay, so he had to let them into the palace with a sad face.

When Feng Ling walked past him, he was like a moving iceberg, and the coldness emanating from his body made him shiver.

It was not until Feng Ling and the others were almost out of sight that he murmured, "My superiors ordered me to delay Prince Ding for at least two sticks of incense, but now is not the right time. My parents and family... No, they will be alright, right?"

There is a guard post every three steps and a sentry every five steps in the palace.

Even when they discovered that Fengming had the intention of rebelling, the atmosphere had never been so tense.

Wang Xin and Feng Ling looked at each other and quickened their pace at the same time.

The two suppressed their doubts and walked quickly towards the Phoenix Palace.

The Fengying Guards brought news that the Queen Mother was poisoned and could not be in the Imperial Study at this moment.

But they came up empty-handed.

The maidservant who was waiting in the Phoenix Palace said, "Your Majesty has been living in the Phoenix Palace for the past three months."

Feng Ling frowned, looked at Wang Xin, then turned and walked towards the Phoenix Palace.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the Phoenix Palace, he ran into Prince Jinghe Fengxiang who came out to greet him.

Prince Jinghe looked haggard and had an untidy beard, looking as if he had not had a good night's sleep for a long time.

He didn't look at all like the pampered and dignified person he was the last time we met.

As soon as he saw Feng Ling, before he could even call him uncle, he went up to him and hugged him, crying and saying, "My dear nephew, you're back..."

Feng Ling took a step back in disgust and pulled his hand away.

As he walked into the palace, he asked, "Uncle, what happened? How is the Queen Mother?"

Prince Jinghe shook his head and sighed, "Originally everything was fine. Half a month ago, we received a victory report from the border of Beiyue, saying that they had captured seven cities of Beiyue. It was estimated that Beiyue would soon ask for peace, and the war would be over. At that time, His Majesty was very happy and invited me and several old ministers to drink and celebrate. We got drunk."

Feng Ling also received the news about the capture of the seven cities of Beiyue, so it should be true.

Feng Ling stared at him as he walked, waiting for him to continue.

Prince Jinghe paused for a moment and said, "The incident happened seven days ago. On that day, urgent news came from the Beiyue border from eight hundred miles away, saying that the princess was accidentally poisoned by the Beiyue Five Poison Alliance and fell into a coma. The Xining Marquis hung up a banner to avoid fighting and requested the court to provide quick support."

When Feng Ling heard this, his expression changed.

When he received the news from Fengyingwei, it only said that there was an incident on the Beiyue border, but he did not expect it to be such an incident.

He was raised by his elder sister since he was a child, so he immediately became anxious when he heard this.

Wang Xin, who was standing by, saw this and secretly tugged at his sleeve, signaling him to calm down.

Feng Ling took a long breath and slowly calmed himself down.

When Prince Jinghe saw this, his expression changed slightly.

He sighed and continued, "But when His Majesty summoned a few of us old ministers to discuss countermeasures, His Majesty took a cup of tea handed to him by a palace maid, took a sip, and then spit out a mouthful of blood on the spot, fell to the ground, and fell unconscious."

"The imperial physician examined him and said that he was poisoned, but he couldn't tell what the poison was. He could only seal his heart meridians and have him drink ginseng tea every day to keep himself alive. He also secretly searched for a famous doctor who was good at detoxifying."

"I heard that you defeated Nanjia and are on your way back to the capital in triumph. I have sent someone to send you a message over 800 miles. I didn't expect you to return so soon."

He glanced at Wang Xin and said in an ambiguous tone, "My niece-in-law is a famous doctor in Xiliang. I heard that she is also good at detoxification. Now that she is back, please check for your majesty to see if she can detoxify him."

Wang Xin responded noncommittally: "I'll try my best."

As they were talking, several people had already arrived at Emperor Feng Qin's bedside.

The once powerful Emperor Feng Qin now had his eyes closed, lying quietly on a large carved bed with a phoenix carved on the headboard.

His face was pale and dull, without any luster.

If it weren't for the occasional rise and fall of the chest, people would have suspected that it was a corpse.
