After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom

The old lady and Jiang Momo paused their hands from praying, and both raised their heads at the same time to look in the direction of the housekeeper.

There was not only the butler, but also a little eunuch holding a whisk following behind him.

The old lady's heart was raised, and she asked anxiously, "What's the urgent matter?"

The butler ran out of breath. He swallowed his saliva and said in a hoarse voice, "It's not to our house, but to Doctor Pang."

"The Empress Dowager is critically ill. Your Majesty, please summon Imperial Physician Pang to the palace immediately!"

The young eunuch managed to catch up all the way, and his white face was stained with a blush.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Madam Lu anxiously, "Madam, please ask Doctor Pang to come out and go into the palace with us. The Empress Dowager is still waiting."

The Empress Dowager was critically ill, and the old lady did not dare to keep Doctor Pang. She quickly asked the housekeeper to bring the eunuch to find Doctor Pang. She raised her hand to summon her secret guards.

"Quick, go stop Xiao Qi!"

The branches of the phoenix tree in the yard made a sound, and the old lady and Jiang Momo's hearts, which had just been relieved, became tense again.

"You must stop the Seventh Young Master!"

"It all depends on God."

The old lady stood on the steps, looking far away in the direction of the imperial city.

Lu Chen was standing in front of the palace gate at this time, preparing to take out the forged emergency military intelligence to enter the palace, when suddenly his wrist felt heavy and someone grabbed his arm and pulled him into a dark place.

The man moved too quickly, and when Lu Chen was about to fight back, he was grabbed by the arm.

"Lu Qi, it's me."

Hearing the familiar voice, Lu Chen's resistance weakened.

"Idle King?"

"follow me!"

"no!"

Lu Chen broke free from his hand, "Youyou is still waiting for Angongdi Huangwan to save her life, I have to go to the palace to find the queen!"

"I know, but your method is not advisable."

Lu Huaizhen grabbed his hand and forcibly led him away from the palace gate, "Come with me, I have my own way to get what you want."

"I can't wait any longer. If I don't get the pill within an hour, Youyou will die!"

"An hour?"

Lu Huaizhen stopped and frowned his handsome brows.

"One hour. It's already been half a quarter of an hour. I really don't have time to waste with you!"

Lu Chen's tone was urgent. He shook his hand away and turned back. He had just taken three steps when he was pulled back by Lu Huaizhen.

"Falsely spreading military intelligence is a serious crime punishable by execution of the entire family. You really want to die."

Lu Huaizhen glanced at him unhappily, and when Lu Chen was about to take action, he quickly said, "If something happens to the Queen Mother, the Emperor will summon Doctor Pang to the palace for a consultation. The Third Prince Ye will come to the palace, and someone will deliver the life-saving pill."

Lu Chen stopped struggling and stared at him coldly, "How do you know so much?!"

Only the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and the Third Prince knew that Youyou was seriously ill. It was hard not to be suspicious of him, a powerless and idle prince, for him to be so well-informed.

Lu Huaizhen looked at him with a defensive look, afraid that he would do something extreme, and explained: "Lu Liu gave me two people when he left. You will inform me of any news from your mansion as soon as possible."

Lu Chen didn't rush to ask him questions. Instead, he looked at the carriage of the Third Prince that appeared at the palace gate, and his heart finally settled down.

What he said is true!

"Do you believe it now?"

Lu Huaizhen was dressed in ordinary black clothes, with a black scarf around his mouth and nose hanging around his neck.

He put his hands behind his back and followed Lu Chen's gaze towards the place that had been like hell and trapped him throughout his youth.

Lu Chen turned to look at him, his eyes full of suspicion, "Did you do the Queen Mother's thing?"

He would never believe that there was such a coincidence in the world!

Lu Huaizhen did not deny it and nodded, "I had someone put some Aconitum poison powder in her tea."

Consuming the poisonous powder of Aconitum will cause people to faint quickly...

Lu Chen was full of doubts, "The palace gate was locked, how did you get someone to poison you?"

"How can it be so easy to dig out bones and get arrows?"

Lu Huaizhen raised his eyebrows. "I went to see your cousin's injury earlier and found that the wound had worsened. So I found someone before the palace gate was locked and told him that if the third prince entered the palace before the palace gate was locked, he should have someone put the Aconitum poison in the empress dowager's tea."

"You even... those around the Queen Mother..."

"I saved an old eunuch when I was in the palace before, and he promised to do something for me."

Lu Chen looked at him in disbelief, so shocked that he couldn't find the words to speak.

Should I praise him for his foresight?

This is still the man who has no real power and is getting sicker day by day——

"You're not sick!"

Lu Chen's tone was firm.

His movements were extremely fast before, and although I was caught off guard at the time, I didn't have much strength to fight back after he captured me.

"Whether you are sick or not, it's just a strategy for self-protection." Lu Huaizhen brushed off the dust on his shoulders with a calm expression.

"You are really good at pretending."

Youyou's problem was solved, and Lu Chen showed a rare bit of childishness, imitating Bai Youyou's behavior and rolling his eyes at him.

Every time I see him walking unsteadily, panting after every three steps and coughing after every five steps, even I feel that this sickly guy may not live for many more days.

Over the years, he has fooled almost everyone.

"A strict teacher produces a good student. Your sixth brother taught me this move personally."

When Lu Huaizhen mentioned Lu Liu, his eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles, "Your brother Liu said that if you don't succeed, you will be dead."

Lu Chen had no doubt that these words came from his sixth brother.

He was just curious about when his sixth brother started hooking up with him.

"How long have you known my sixth brother?"

"At the Queen Mother's birthday banquet thirteen years ago, if it weren't for your sixth brother, I would have died that day."

Lu Huaizhen's eyes and heart were filled with gratitude.

He suppressed the smile on his lips, his expression more serious than ever before, "Before your sixth brother went to the border, he asked me to help look after the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. Since I have agreed, I will do it even if it costs my life!"

"You must have learned this skill from my sixth brother."

Thirteen years ago, he was still a little kid, and his sixth brother was also a little kid.

Lu Chen twisted his sore arm and snorted coldly.

This was the grappling technique that had been passed down from generation to generation in his family, and yet this fake sick kid had learned it.

Judging from his skills, he is better than him!

"My last name is Lu too, we are a family."

Lu Huaizhen's eyes sparkled with light, "Your Sixth Brother said that from now on I will be his in life and his in death, and he will collect my body."

He still remembers how when Lu Liu hooked his neck and said these words to him, his heart, which had been floating like duckweed, suddenly found a home.

Even when he thinks of it now, his heart is still burning with joy.

"Why worry about what happens after death? There are green mountains everywhere in this world. You should be buried where you die. Why bother with those things?"

In response to his childish words, Lu Chen just smiled and said nothing.

Happy people are all alike, but each unhappy person has his own misfortune.

He was born in a happy family, so how could he understand the feeling of being alone and helpless?

"Go back. I believe it won't be long before the Third Prince will deliver the things to your house."
