The Flirtatious Prince and His Savage Concubine

Liu Lu's gossip-telling was very vivid, with not only changes in her voice, but also her expressions and movements. When she talked about her conversation with Concubine Guo, she skillfully switched between different voices, showing the communication between the two people vividly.

Liu Lu sometimes pretended to be a vicious woman and covered the Ninth Prince's mouth, sometimes made a gesture of arresting him, and sometimes showed a look of great pain. Lu Lingxi, who was standing by, watched this wonderful performance with great interest, and his expression became very nervous, as if he was really in a lively drama.

Just after Liu Lu finished talking about Concubine Guo angrily scolding the vicious woman who attempted to murder the Ninth Prince, she suddenly leaned back and said, "After Concubine Guo scolded that vicious woman, she actually fainted!" No one knew whether it was because she was too angry, or because the continuous childbirth in the past few days had exhausted all of Concubine Guo's physical strength and energy, so she was so weak.

Fortunately, except for the vicious woman who was pinned to the ground and unable to move, all the others at the scene were Concubine Guo's confidants. Therefore, after Concubine Guo fainted, they quickly took action to protect the Ninth Prince and ensure that he was safe. Not long after, our Emperor heard the news and rushed over. The sober midwife hurried forward and reported everything that had happened to His Majesty in detail.

When His Majesty heard the news, his face suddenly changed and he was terrified. He immediately ordered the most senior physician in the Imperial Hospital to be summoned and to come to the palace as quickly as possible to provide detailed diagnosis and treatment for Concubine Guo and the Ninth Prince.

Soon, several imperial doctors came in a hurry. They began to diagnose Concubine Guo and the Ninth Prince with serious faces and check their pulses and physical conditions. The whole palace was filled with a tense atmosphere. Everyone held their breath and waited anxiously for the diagnosis and treatment results.

Finally, after a careful diagnosis, the imperial doctors looked at each other in bewilderment, and then reported to His Majesty a shocking fact: It turned out that Concubine Guo's difficult labor was not accidental, but someone secretly poisoned her! After examination, it was found that Concubine Guo was poisoned by a rare chronic poison, and the poisoner was extremely insidious and cunning, and the dosage of the poison used was extremely small. If it had not been discovered in time, Concubine Guo and the Ninth Prince would have died long ago.

However, although his life was saved, the Ninth Prince was affected to some extent. His small body was covered with bruises, the number of which was far more than that of an ordinary child. This made everyone present worried, and they were all worried about whether these bruises would disappear in the future. Fortunately, the Ninth Prince's cute little face was not damaged.

At the same time, the imperial doctors made another astonishing discovery during the investigation - a suspicious sachet was found on the poisonous woman suspected of murdering the ninth prince. After further inspection, it was confirmed that the sachet did contain a highly toxic substance. Moreover, this poison is quite strange, and it mainly produces toxic effects by emitting odor. Fortunately, Concubine Guo did not consume it directly, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. Now, although Concubine Guo is not in danger of life, she still needs to spend a lot of time to carefully recuperate her body before she can gradually recover.

His Majesty was furious when he heard the whole story. His eyes, which were once majestic, were now filled with anger, and veins on his forehead bulged. He ordered without hesitation to put the vicious woman in jail and torture her severely, forcing her to reveal the mastermind behind the incident and all the relevant details.

The vicious woman tried to deny it at first, but after suffering several cruel punishments, she finally confessed everything because she could not bear the pain.

It turned out that this vicious woman also had a bad fate. Her husband died early, leaving her alone and helpless to support her young son. However, misfortunes never come alone. Her only son was addicted to gambling and couldn't extricate himself. Over time, he owed a huge amount of foreign debt, which was like a heavy mountain that made her breathless. Just when she was at her wits' end, Queen Gu appeared in front of her like a ray of light in the darkness. Queen Gu handed her a large sum of money with a dignified manner and a kind look, and expressed her willingness to help her overcome the difficulties. Faced with such a huge temptation and a life-saving straw in the predicament, after a fierce inner struggle, she finally chose to betray Concubine Guo, who had always been good to her. "

When Lu Lingxi heard this, his eyes widened in shock: "Are you saying that the mastermind behind this incident is Queen Gu? Then how will father deal with her?"

Liu Lu said mysteriously, "Of course Queen Gu denied it, but now there is a witness. Later, it was found that the maids in Queen Gu's palace went to the Imperial Hospital to take the medicinal materials in the sachet worn by the poisonous woman on her waist, which contained the poison, and the silver bills that the poisonous woman had not yet sent out of the palace. After checking the source, it was found that it was indeed taken to Yanchun Palace. Now there is both witness and evidence, so she can't deny it. His Majesty was furious and deposed the queen on the charge of plotting to murder the crown prince and killing concubines."

Lu Lingxi was even more surprised: "It took you so long to say something as important as deposing the queen?"

Liu Lu: "Of course I know that Your Majesty is very concerned about the fact that Queen Gu was deposed. I am afraid that if I tell you this first, you will not want to listen to other things. Moreover, although Queen Gu was deposed, because Concubine Guo and the Ninth Prince were not seriously injured, she did not succeed in the end, so she was only demoted to Concubine Gu and imprisoned in Yanchun Palace, but was not completely banished to the cold palace. I don't know if she will be able to turn things around."

Lu Lingxi poked Liu Lu's head with his hand and scolded, "I am really impressed by your train of thought. If you had told me about Queen Gu being deposed, I would have asked about the whole story. How could I not be interested at all? Don't do this next time. Get to the point first."

Liu Lu said aggrievedly: "I just picked out the key points to talk about. Master Yugang returned to the capital, Concubine Guo had a difficult delivery, the Ninth Prince was in danger, and Queen Gu was deposed. They were all the key points. It's just that too many important things happened last night, and I didn't figure out which one was the most important."

Lu Lingxi thought about it and it seemed to be true. He stopped poking Liu Lu's head excitedly and said angrily, "Okay then! This won't happen again!"

Liu Lu suddenly said, "Oh! I remembered another important thing. After Queen Gu was deposed, she had a few arguments with Your Majesty. Your Majesty was so angry that he vomited blood. The Crown Prince is now in the palace to take care of him."

Lu Lingxi stared at Liu Lu until his eyes almost popped out of his head, and said angrily: "Why didn't you wait until father recovered from his illness before telling me?"

Then he quickly packed himself up and asked, "Do I need to go to the palace to take care of the sick?"

Liu Lu replied, "No, when His Majesty is sick, the Crown Prince or the Prince usually attends to him, and when the Queen is sick, you should attend to her. But recently, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will have to live in the Imperial Palace and cannot return to the Crown Prince's Mansion."

Lu Lingxi sighed, "Okay, got it. Father is not feeling well, so I can't be too conspicuous. Let's not go to the Zhenguo Marquis' Mansion today. Anyway, my brother is back and can take care of my sister-in-law, so I can worry less."
