The Virtuous Concubine

With Rong Ji's treatment, Malu woke up soon, and fortunately, the baby in her belly was saved.

After Malu's condition stabilized, the first thing he asked Wen Xian was: "How are Wenying and Ulanara now? Are they both okay?"

Wen Xian lowered his head and gently tucked the quilt for Malu with his hands, but his eyes deliberately avoided Malu's sight: "Mother, we can hardly protect ourselves at this time, how can we have the energy to take care of their situation at this time."

Malu sighed. She knew that Wen Xian was right, so she had to cheer herself up, skip this question, and ask Wen Xian what happened after she fell into a coma.

After hearing everything, Malu couldn't help but hug Wen Xian: "Today is all thanks to you."

Wen Xian comforted Malu: "You can raise a daughter for a thousand days and use her for a moment. Don't worry, mother. Second brother will go find her..."

At this point, Wen Xian seemed to suddenly remember something interesting, and couldn't help laughing, "I don't even know what to call him. Anyway, we will take care of the rest, so just rest assured and take care of yourself."

Malu sighed: "I originally thought that as long as I could give birth to the child safely...how is your father?"

The smile on Wen Xian's face suddenly faded: "Dr. Rong said that it will only happen in the next two days. The fact that the emperor has been able to hold on for so long today is just a last gasp..."

Ma Lu remained silent, but then he thought of something and told Wen Xian: "There is a rose pendant in my mother's dressing box. If Yin Zuo has a chance, let him go to Yonghe Palace to get it. This is the token of the head of the Nalan family."

Wen Xian looked at his mother in surprise. After all, the Nalan family had always supported Concubine Hui and the eldest prince. How come the token of the head of the family was in his mother's hands?

Malu blushed. She should not tell her daughter too much about her ridiculous deeds.

She sighed and whispered a few words into Wen Xian's ear, shocking him so much that he stepped back repeatedly.

"Um Niang??"

Malu quickly grabbed her hand and said, "Anyway, you can choose to tell Fourteenth. If it really comes to this, the Nalan family will support both the Crown Prince and Fourteenth. And..."

The rest of the words were so inaudible that they were swallowed up by the wind.

On this side, with the help of Liang Jiugong's message, the Fourth Prince soon received the news that the Crown Prince wanted to meet him.

The Fourth Prince's face instantly twisted and became hideous.

"Why hasn't he died yet? Why hasn't the decree to depose the crown prince been announced to the world yet?"

Liang Jiugong tremblingly sneaked Wen Xian into the Qianqing Palace, stopped the prince who was about to commit suicide, and then took away Concubine Dezhao. He also told the Fourth Prince about the three blank imperial edicts he had prepared.

"Good, good, good!" The fourth prince laughed in anger, saying "good" three times in a row, with endless resentment and anger. "One by one, you all turn your elbows outward!"

He clenched his fists and slammed them hard on the table beside him. With a loud bang, a deep hole was smashed into the solid tabletop, and the fourth prince's hands were immediately torn apart, with blood gushing out and dripping down his fingers onto the ground.

What good would it be for Wen Xian to help the crown prince? Could it be that she had to go against her brother just to avoid getting married?

The Fourth Prince showed a cold and sarcastic smile: "Does she think she can stop me like this? It's wishful thinking! The Crown Prince is now at the end of his rope. How can he have the qualifications to negotiate with me on an equal footing? He doesn't have any bargaining chips in his hands to compete with me. I just need to continue to besiege the Forbidden City. It won't be long before the people in the Forbidden City will run out of food and water. By then, no matter what imperial edict he has, it will be nothing more than a piece of waste paper and will be useless."

The Fourth Prince turned to look at Liang Jiugong, his eyes revealing a hint of ruthlessness: "Go tell the prince that if he wants to end this, he has no choice but to end it himself and commit suicide to apologize. Otherwise, I will make him wish he could neither live nor die!"

Seeing the Fourth Prince's rage, Liang Jiugong was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder broke, and his legs became weak, but he dared not not say these words: "Fourth Master, Princess Wenxian handed a blank imperial edict to the Seventh Prince before I left, and also asked the Seventh Prince to go to the Northwest Camp immediately to find the Fourteenth Prince... Slave, I really don't know what the deep meaning is, but I think this matter may be very important, and I dare not not tell the Fourth Master."

When the Fourth Prince heard this, his face suddenly became so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out of it, and his eyes revealed a barely perceptible panic and anger.

Fourteenth Prince commands a large army. If he is won over by the Crown Prince and Princess Wenxian through his mother, he would be accused of plotting against his father and killing his brother as soon as he enters the Forbidden City, and Fourteenth Prince would take this opportunity to wipe him out in one fell swoop!

"Damn it! Damn it!" The Fourth Prince cursed with gritted teeth, "She actually deliberately went against me! Trash, all trash! Why didn't you stop her? What exactly is your intention?" As the Fourth Prince spoke, he took a step forward, grabbed Liang Jiugong's collar tightly with both hands, lifted him up, his eyes full of anger, "Tell me! Which direction did Yinzuo go? If you dare to hide even a word, I will twist your head off now!"

Liang Jiugong was so scared that he shook his head repeatedly: "Fourth Master, please forgive me, I didn't know!"

"Hmph!" The Fourth Prince snorted coldly and threw Liang Jiugong to the ground. "Useless! What's the point of keeping you? You are more likely to cause trouble than to help!"

Liang Jiugong lay on the ground, kowtowing and begging for mercy: "Fourth Master, please spare my life! Fourth Master, please spare my life! I will go check it right away, I will go check it right away..."

"Get lost!" The Fourth Prince waved his hand impatiently. "Go back to the palace first and tell the Crown Prince that I am willing to see him, but only if he leaves the palace! Let him come alone. If he dares to bring a soldier with him, don't blame me for showing no mercy and killing him on the spot!"

Liang Jiugong ran into the Forbidden City with all his might. When gods fight, the little devils suffer!

Unexpectedly, Princess Wenxian, a girl, could see clearly the cards of all parties. The Fourth Prince originally wanted the Crown Prince to die, but now that things have come to this, the Fourth Prince can only grit his teeth and accept this difficult situation for the time being, and plan a new response strategy.

It seems that there is still room for competition for the throne!

On the other hand, Yinzuo did not go directly to the northwest as Wen Xian told Liang Jiugong, but went to Hesheli's house first according to Malu's instructions.

This is understandable. If he really wanted to go to the Northwest, he would go directly to the Northwest. I don’t know how many difficulties he would encounter on the way to the Northwest!

It was not difficult to tell Soetu, but what Yinzuo did not expect was that Soetu actually hesitated.

Yinzuo looked at Suo'etu and sighed. The hero has grown old and has indeed lost his former spirit. The emperor has attacked Suo'etu a lot over the years. Now the prince is fighting a desperate battle, but Suo'etu still has the entire Hesheli family to take care of.

Time was limited, so Yinzuo had to bow and say goodbye - he had already conveyed his message and it was time to go to Nalan Mingzhu's house.
