I just want to live a happy life

Chapter 42 Chen Wanyin 42

The only possibility is Ruyi.

Ruyi stood opposite her, her face calm and her eyes steady, nothing could be seen.

But惢心, who was standing behind her, couldn't control her expression for a moment. Chen Wanyin was sharp-eyed and saw a flash of fear and terror in惢心's eyes.

At this moment, Hongli also came over. After waiting for a while, the imperial physician Qi Ru came out.

Hongli asked, "How is the queen?"

Qi Ru bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the Empress swallowed a lot of river water by mistake and has now vomited it all out. However, the Empress was in the river for a long time before she was rescued. She was injured. I'm afraid she will be weak in the future and will need to take medicine frequently."

After hearing this, Hongli sighed and said, "Qi Ru, you will take care of the queen from now on. You must take good care of her."

"Yes."

Chen Wanyin and other concubines also heard about the Queen's situation and had different reactions.

Chen Wanyin had been paying attention to Ruyi, and as expected, when she heard the imperial physician's words, a hint of pity flashed in her eyes.

There was nothing to do now, and the concubines were walking back in groups of three or four.

Gao Xiyue was walking in front of Chen Wanyin. Suddenly, she staggered. If Mo Xin hadn't supported her, she would have fallen.

"Your Highness, are you okay?" Chen Wanyin asked.

Gao Xiyue looked a little unnatural, but she tried her best to remain calm: "It's okay."

Chen Wanyin looked at Gao Xiyue's hurried back and squinted her eyes. It seemed that tonight was going to be really exciting.

Gao Xiyue returned to the boat, and Mo Xin behind her quickly closed the door.

"Moxin, what should we do? Will the emperor find out about me? But the Queen's falling into the water has nothing to do with me." Gao Xiyue grabbed Moxin, looking worried.

Mo Xin helped Gao Xiyue sit on the stool and comforted her: "Master, don't be afraid. No one saw us standing where we were. They won't find out about us. Master, don't worry."

Gao Xiyue was still worried: "What if someone sees this? The emperor will definitely suspect me."

Mo Xin replied: "Master, even if someone saw it, we are far away from where the queen fell into the water. It is dark, so it is common that we can't see it. How can we just watch her die without helping her?"

Gao Xiyue felt a little relieved after listening to Mo Xin's comfort.

Mo Xin saw that her master was finally not nervous anymore, so she reminded him again, "Master, the emperor will definitely investigate the matter of the queen falling into the water. You must control your expression in front of outsiders and try your best to show that you are unaware of the matter. Don't let anyone see anything."

Gao Xiyue also knew this truth, so she nodded.

Speaking of which, Gao Xiyue really had the same idea as the Queen tonight. They both wanted to go out for a walk.

Gao Xiyue came out late. When she came out, the queen had just fallen into the water and was still shouting for help. Gao Xiyue was farther away, but she could still hear the queen's voice.

Just as she was about to call for help to rescue the Queen, she remembered the linglingxiang that the Queen had placed in her bracelet and stopped.

Watching the queen struggling in the water.

She even thought maliciously that if the Queen fell into the water and died, it would be a revenge for the Queen's plot against her, and her hands would not be stained with blood.

But just as the queen stopped struggling and was about to sink, a guard saw her and rescued her.

It was only after the incident that Gao Xiyue felt scared.

If the queen really died from falling into the water, and it was found that she did not save the person from death, she would not have a good ending. Her daughter is still young and has not yet married, so she cannot afford to get hurt.

Fortunately, the queen did not die, but her body was ruined.

She was afraid but also happy.

Ruyi's place.

惢心 helped Ruyi wash up with a normal expression, covered her with a quilt, and then quietly left the inner room. After closing the door, 惢心 sat on a low stool in the outer room to keep watch.

At this time when no one was around, Suo Xin revealed her true emotions.

She was filled with fear.

She was Ruyi's personal maid, how could she not know what Ruyi had done.

He devised a plan for the Queen Mother to marry Princess Jingse far away, and smeared tung oil on the boat planks, causing the Queen Mother to fall into the water.

She knew that her master had his reasons for doing all this.

But seeing her master going from one extreme to another, she was really afraid that something might happen one day.

But as a slave, she couldn't stop anything.

The master is becoming more and more crazy, and he will definitely do more in the future.

She recalled what Jiang Yubin said about his mistress threatening him to give Concubine Ling cinnabar. His mistress knew that Jiang Yubin liked her, so there was no guarantee that it wouldn't happen again in the future.

It wasn't a big deal if she got into trouble, but Jiang Yubin was innocent and she couldn't implicate him.

It seems that after returning to the palace, I have to find Jiang Yubin to find a way to leave Yikun Palace.

惢心 thought to herself.

Because of falling into the water, the queen developed a high fever that night, fell into a coma, and talked in her sleep.

Su Lian was wiping the queen's body with a hot towel.

"Lianxin, Lianxin." Su Lian called out twice but there was no response. It was not until she called out the third time that Lianxin came back to her senses.

"Aunt Su Lian, is there anything I can do for you?"

Su Lian frowned: "Lian Xin, everyone is busy, why are you still in a daze? This basin of water is cold, go get another basin of hot water."

Lianxin quickly agreed and brought a basin of hot water to Su Lian.

Su Lian looked at Lian Xin coming over and handed her a towel: "You wipe the Queen's body first, I'll go see if the medicine is ready."

Lianxin took it, wet the towel, carefully held the Queen's hand, and wiped it carefully.

Recalling that when the Queen fell into the water, she hid behind a pillar, covered her mouth tightly, and did not make a sound.

Your Majesty, please don't blame me. If you hadn't arranged my marriage to Wang Qin, I wouldn't have been tortured by him. You and Wang Qin have ruined my life, and I have been unfaithful to you. Today, I have watched him die without helping him, and this can be considered as my revenge.

Because of the Queen's health condition, it was not suitable for her to return now, so Hongli ordered them to stay for a few more days.

Hongli also took advantage of these few days to promote Ling Yunche, the guard who saved the queen, to the position of imperial guard, and then investigated the truth of the queen's fall into the water.

Finally, the cause of the crime was traced back to a young eunuch. It was he who smeared tung oil on the deck on the night when the Queen had the accident, but he had already committed suicide when it was discovered.

It is normal for Lianxin and Sulian to leave the Queen. As long as we find out who is behind the little eunuch, we will know the real culprit.

But the young eunuch was dead and the clue was lost. Hongli had no choice but to hand it over to Yu Hu and ask her to check it again to see if there was anything missing.

Only after the queen's condition improved did they rush back to the capital.

After returning to the harem, the queen had no time to take care of her health as she was busy preparing for Jingse's wedding.

After being busy for almost half a year, it was time for Jingse to get married.

On this day, Jingse bid farewell to the queen in tears and married far away in Khorchin.

The queen was extremely sad, and after Jingse left, she could no longer bear it and fell ill.
