Ye Lan heard staggering footsteps coming to the yard where Chu Qingyao was.

He was originally looking forward to seeing what his wife looked like, but when he stepped into the room, he was surprised to find that there was no one in the house.

Ye Lan couldn't help but rub his eyes, wondering if he was seeing things. However, after confirming again and again, he was sure that what he saw was not an illusion. The pair of dragon and phoenix candles that symbolized joy were still burning quietly.

"Where are the people? Where have they gone?"

Although Ye Lanting had drunk a lot of alcohol, he was still conscious.

He frowned, his heart full of confusion.

After all, today is their wedding day. Normally, the bride should have been waiting in the room for the groom to arrive.

It is really unbelievable that he is nowhere to be seen now.

Seeing this, the servants on the side hurried forward to support Ye Lanting and comforted him, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will go and check the situation right away."

It turned out that Ye Lanting was supported by these servants when he walked in.

Who could have expected such a situation to occur as soon as they entered the house, which made everyone feel very embarrassed and confused.

At the same time, the real protagonist Chu Qingyao's face was full of resentment.

She never thought that at this critical moment, she would get a stomachache.

Not only did she have a stomachache, but she also had to go to the toilet frequently. Every time she went, she became weaker, which made the maids Liucheng and Liulu, who had always been by her side, very anxious.

With his extraordinary martial arts, Liucheng was able to keenly detect the unusual noises in the yard.

She hurried to the door and saw Ye Lanting in wedding clothes. She bowed and explained, "Your Majesty, please calm down. My princess is suddenly ill and is going to the bathroom now."

Hearing this, Ye Lan felt slightly relieved.

But at the same time, he was worried that Chu Qingyao might be feeling unwell because she couldn't adapt to the environment here.

So he asked, "Could it be due to acclimatization?"

After all, Chu Qingyao is a princess with a noble and special status. If anything goes wrong, it would be difficult to explain.

However, on such a happy day, if it is really due to acclimatization, it would be unlucky to ask the court doctor to come and treat him.

"I really don't know any medical skills. Your Majesty, do you need to summon the doctor from your palace to take a look?" Liu Cheng said softly.

Ye Lan wanted to refuse, but he couldn't say it. He turned to the people beside him and said, "Didn't you hear it? The princess is ill now. Go and invite the palace doctor immediately!"

"Yes, sir. I'll go there right away!" After the servant took the order and left, Ye Lanting walked into the house on his own.

Perhaps it was because of the ordeal just now that his originally confused mind became a little clearer.

Not long after, when Chu Qingyao slowly walked out of the room with the support of Liu Lu, before she could open her mouth to speak, she suddenly felt another sharp pain in her abdomen. She had no choice but to turn around and go back into the house again.

After repeating this several times, by the time the court doctor hurriedly arrived, Chu Qingyao had already gone back and forth between the toilet and the bedroom as many as three times.

Under such circumstances, let alone the much-anticipated wedding night, even sleeping peacefully would probably become a luxury.

Ye Lan was extremely anxious when he heard this, and he wished he could immediately fly to Tang Yishuang to seek comfort.

However, the only bit of rationality he had left kept reminding him that he must not act rashly at this moment.

Forget it, forget it. Let’s wait for Chu Qingyao to take the medicine before staying by her side!

On the other side, Chu Qingyao was full of resentment, but didn't know how to blame others.

After all, this condition was entirely caused by her own indiscriminate eating. As for what kind of food conflicted with each other and caused the diarrhea, she had no idea.

That’s right, the court doctor’s diagnosis was that the diarrhea was caused by eating something bad.

When Tang Yishuang heard the news from the main courtyard the next day, she laughed out loud.

Qingmei suddenly felt that she had done a good thing, but she didn't say it. This kind of thing would be more dangerous the more people knew about it.

So when Tang Yishuang saw Ye Lan listening to her, her smiling face immediately turned into a sad expression.

"How come you look so bad after not seeing Your Highness for one night? Did you not get enough rest? If not, why don't you just sleep here for a while?"

Ye Lan listened to the weak Tang Yishuang and the anger in his heart dissipated a lot. He put his arm around her waist and said softly, "Okay, stay with me to sleep for a while."

……

Hua Xin was not surprised at all when she learned that the source of the rumor came from the Hong residence.

Fortunately, she doesn't have to worry about these things, someone will take care of them naturally.

At this time, in Concubine Yu's bedroom, Old Madam Hong, with tears on her face, tightly held Concubine Yu's hand and whispered something.

Looking back on the past years, Concubine Yu did have some deep affection for this cousin.

However, time flies, and because they do not live together, the family affection accumulated over a long period of time gradually fades.

Hearing today that her words implied plans for Hong Yuan, Concubine Yu became a little impatient.

The incident that happened in Liaocheng was like a sharp thorn that pierced deep into her heart. It not only hurt her heart, but also caused a rift between her and the emperor.

Now that we are at the feet of the emperor, anyone who dares to cheat in the imperial examination will be doomed to death.

However, this cousin actually tried to ask for her help. Did she feel that she was living too comfortably?

When Concubine Yu saw Old Madam Hong burst into tears for the third time, her patience finally reached its limit. She could no longer remain silent and spoke coldly, "Cousin, do you know what the consequences will be if you are found to have participated in cheating in the imperial examination?"

Mrs. Hong was stunned when she heard this. She had said so much earnestly, her lips were almost worn out, but her cousin just listened with one ear and out the other, and didn't take her words to heart at all!

"What...what will happen?" Old Madam Hong asked tremblingly.

"It's a dead end, there's no doubt about it! Cousin, do you want the Hong family to be extinct? Oh no, Hong Yuan already has children, but that's a serious crime that will implicate the entire family. Cousin, can you really bear it?"

Imperial Concubine Yu had no expression on her face and her tone was so calm, as if she was just stating a very ordinary fact. However, to Old Madam Hong, these words were like a bolt from the blue, and made her terrified.

What does it mean?

You just won't help?

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Concubine Yu continued, "It's getting late today. If you don't leave now, it will be troublesome for you to leave the palace after the palace gates are locked."

The intention of driving people away was already very clear. There was nothing that Mrs. Hong didn't understand. The smile on her face faded a little.
