Refusing to let love take a back seat, the scumbag emperor actually seeks favor every day

"Cough cough..."

When everyone heard the voice, they immediately made way for Wenren Fusang.

Wenren Fusang had just sat down beside the bed to examine the patient when Song Qingyan suddenly opened his eyes and coughed again, scaring him so much that he retracted the hand he had just extended.

He uttered this sentence subconsciously.

"Could it be that you are having a last burst of energy?"

When Song Qingyan opened his eyes again, he seemed to have recovered a little.

Looking at the people who did not disappear from his sight, he spoke uncertainly and with difficulty.

"Your Majesty? Your Majesty?"

Su Manman, whose heart was hanging in her throat, brightened up when she heard his weak and slow voice.

"Guard Song, you finally woke up. How do you feel now? Do you remember who hurt you?"

It’s not that Su Manman doesn’t care about his life or death and asks him a lot of questions as soon as she opens her mouth.

The truth is, his situation doesn't look good.

I was afraid that he would faint again, so I had to ask him all the questions at once while he was still conscious.

Song Qingyan, who was still doubting everything in front of him, heard Su Manman's familiar and correct voice and was completely sure that this was not a dream.

At the same time, his dizzy mind suddenly remembered something more important before answering Su Man's question.

"Ah! Your Highness! Is something wrong?!"

He didn't know about the fire, he was just doing his duty. When he saw Zhao Chengyuan, Su Manman and Wenren Fusang, who usually treated Zhao Yuxian, all here, he instinctively thought that something might have happened to Zhao Yuxian.

After he said this in shock, he wanted to turn over and get up from the bed.

But he had been lying in bed for several days, had hardly eaten anything, and was injured. He felt weak all over and had no memory of his body at all.

Seeing how anxious he was, everyone tried to persuade him to calm down.

He calmed down only after hearing people present say that Zhao Yuxian was fine.

"Huh, that's good..."

From the relief he looked like, you could tell he was really nervous.

But you can't blame him for reacting so strongly.

After all, according to usual practice, the emperor and empress would only look for him together when it came to matters concerning Zhao Yuxian.

So when I opened my eyes and saw the two of them appear here at the same time, it was hard not to suspect that it was my negligence that caused the master to get into trouble.

If something really happened, he couldn't take any responsibility.

In just a moment, he even thought about where to bury himself.

He knew very well that if anything happened to Zhao Yuxian, the people in the palace would not let him go.

The people present saw that he was in a bad condition, so as not to disturb his rest, they kept their conversation short.

The process of the assassination was not much different from what An Yuan had found out.

When asked if he recognized the palace maid, he shook his head to indicate that he did not.

"It was too dark that night, so I couldn't see the man's face clearly. He just said his name was Ruo Wu and he worked for Bu Fu and Gong."

As soon as he said this, the faces of everyone present changed.

After all, they just learned that the owner of the name had passed away, which was too weird.

Su Manman was not the kind of person who believed in ghosts and gods. She was stunned for a moment and then quickly reacted.

It is reasonable for the other party to take advantage of the darkness and use other people's names to do evil.

As for why we used the name of a person who had been dead for a year, it was probably because there was no appropriate name for death.

"Besides this, are there any other clues?"

Song Qingyan thought about it seriously for a long time, and finally could only shake his head.

"Other than that, she seems to be just an ordinary palace maid. There is nothing special about her that would make people remember her."

After Song Qingyan finished speaking, he saw that no one present reacted and they all looked thoughtful.

I felt a little uneasy in my heart.

Su Manman hesitated for a moment and then told her the truth.

Upon learning that the original palace maid had already died, Song Qingyan realized that he had been tricked.

Thinking back to what happened that night, it seemed more and more suspicious.

He had always been in charge of Zhao Yuxian's medicine. To ensure that he used it, he was accustomed to checking it before going to bed every day.

I always prepare my daily medicines in advance and never run out of them.

When he saw that the most important medicine was gone that day, he wondered how he could have made such a mistake, but he was in a hurry to get the medicine back and didn't think much about it.

Now that I think about it, maybe someone did something to him.

And the other party knew his habits, so he would take a shortcut to get the medicine in order to get back to Zhao Yuxian earlier.

Knowing that the enemy not only attacked him on the road, but also set fire while he was walking away, and almost killed Zhao Yuxian in the fire, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

If Zhao Yujie really died in this accident, and he himself was away from home and died in an accident, he could put the whole blame on his subordinate who neglected his duty.

The arsonist's main target was obviously Zhao Yuxian.

Even as he told everything, he still couldn't figure it out.

"Before I left, I specially arranged for two people to guard the prince's room. There was a fire in the room. How come we didn't find the fire in those two days?"

The two people he arranged were both very reliable people in normal times, and this kind of accident should not have happened.

When Zhao Chengyuan rushed in to rescue people, there were indeed two servants in the room besides the unconscious Zhao Yuxian.

But at that time, both of them fell to the ground.

He was in a hurry to save people and didn't have time to check on the condition of the two people.

By the time he brought Zhao Yuxian out, the fire inside was out of control and the two men had been burned beyond recognition and died in the sea of ​​fire.

He originally suspected that the two people had fainted during the fire, and now hearing what Song Qingyan said, it confirmed that his guess was correct.

There were so many suspicious points in this incident that no one could figure it out.

After chatting for a while, seeing that Song Qingyan could not provide any more useful information, some people decided to leave and let him rest.

"Guard Song, was he a warm-hearted person in front of the surveillance camera?"

As soon as she left Song Qingyan's residence, Su Manman asked Zhao Chengyuan this question out of the blue.

"You think there's something wrong with him."

Zhao Chengyuan's answer was irrelevant to the question and was an affirmative sentence.

Su Manman could not deny it.

The Song Qingyan she knew was dedicated to protecting his master but never meddled in other people's affairs.

If she and Zhao Chengyuan had something to do in front of him, he would go to Zhao Yuxian first and might not even stop for a moment, let alone a palace maid whose appearance was unclear and whose identity was suspicious.

She didn't want to rob him with malicious intent, but after living in the palace for a long time, she knew that nothing was absolute.

She has no actual evidence on this, so it's hard to comment too much.

"I didn't say anything, but I suddenly remembered that you once said that in the palace, it is best to be suspicious of every tree."

"Oh, should I praise the Queen for having a good memory?"

This was something they said when they were very young. Zhao Chengyuan didn't expect her to suddenly bring it up this time.

Su Manman felt that the conversation that day was boring, so she ignored him and prepared to go back to her residence.

"I did tell you not to trust others easily, but I never told you to be on guard against me too."

"Humph, you are the biggest liar in the entire palace!"

Su Manman snorted coldly and didn't even look at him again.
