Story of Yanxi Palace: Fu Ying's banner will never fall

Wei Yingluo was stunned when she heard this. Sacred Heart Grass... wasn't that the ingredient in the detoxification pill that Fu Heng risked his life to bring back for her?

"Oh? In that case, has the Queen also been poisoned? That's why she is in poor health." Wei Yingluo asked Ye Tianshi curiously.

"That's right. The Queen was poisoned with a mixture of poisons. The toxicity is not strong, but long-term consumption will lead to the current situation." Ye Tianshi said to Wei Yingluo.

Empress Fucha's eyes changed, as if she knew that she had been poisoned, but she didn't want to mention it, so she asked Ye Tianshi curiously: "Doctor Ye, what is this Sacred Heart Grass? I have never heard of it."

"Your Majesty, this medicinal herb is extremely precious. It can not only cure various old poisons, but also keep your appearance unchanged and your youth forever. But I'm afraid it's difficult to obtain because the Sacred Heart Grass grows in swamps filled with miasma." Ye Tianshi said with difficulty.

Empress Fucha nodded and fell into deep thought. According to what Doctor Ye said, obtaining the Sacred Heart Grass would probably cost a lot of manpower and resources, and she absolutely did not want to exchange her own life for the lives of others.

Then he asked, "This is too much of a waste of money and effort. If I don't take this medicine, will there be any problems with my health?"

Ye Tianshi looked a little unnatural, and looked at Wei Yingluo. Wei Yingluo winked at Ye Tianshi: "In my humble opinion...nothing serious will happen in the short term. I will prescribe some medicine to remove the remaining poison for you, the Queen."

After receiving Wei Yingluo's signal, Ye Tianshi heaved a sigh of relief and continued, "Empress, although there is nothing serious at the moment, you still need to take medicine regularly, but..."

"Just what?" asked the Queen, frowning.

"But this medicine can only suppress the toxicity temporarily and cannot completely eliminate the toxins. If you want to completely detoxify, you still need to find the Sacred Heart Grass." Ye Tianshi said with difficulty.

"I understand. You can go down first!" The Queen waved her hand and asked them to leave.

Empress Fucha saw the exchange of glances between them, but did not expose it directly. She just smiled and nodded, "In that case, thank you, Doctor Ye."

Outside the Changchun Palace.

Wei Yingluo asked worriedly, "Master, how is the Queen's health?"

“The Queen must have been poisoned when she was pregnant, so her health has always been poor. If she can’t find the Sacred Heart Grass, she will only have about ten years to live.” Ye Tianshi shook his head.

"So that's how it is..." Wei Yingluo fell into deep thought. Now she could only send someone to look for him. If he still couldn't be found after a few years, she would go to the south herself.

Before they knew it, it was the day for Wei Yingning to leave the palace, and Wei Yingluo saw her off to the palace gate.

Wei Yingning was looking forward to it, but Qi Jiaqingxi didn't come.

Wei Yingluo might face danger through Fu. Judging from Qi Jiaqingxi's behavior, he is also an accomplice in the murder of his sister.

Wei Yingluo looked at Wei Yingning's disappointed expression and comforted her, "Sister, since Qi Jiaqingxi is not coming, then we won't wait for him."

Wei Yingning nodded, tears welling up in her eyes.

Wei Yingluo held Wei Yingning's hand and said softly, "Sister, no matter what happens, I will be with you."

The two walked towards the palace gate together. Wei Yingning looked back at the Forbidden City behind her, her heart filled with emotion.

At this time, Qi Jiaqingxi was hiding in the distance, silently watching Wei Yingning's back as she left, his heart full of guilt and helplessness.

"Sister, my friend is also at the guard office. He said that Guard Qi Jia...has been engaged on the Lantern Festival this year. You don't have to wait any longer."

Wei Yingluo patted Wei Yingning's shoulders a few times, trying to give her some comfort.

After hearing the news, Wei Yingning showed a bitter smile on her face, but her heart felt as painful as if it was being stabbed by a knife.

She murmured to herself, "It's so... I should have understood it earlier. When Zhiheng came to see me before, she was holding that pearl hairpin. How ironic."

She thinks back to the good times she had with Kyung-seok, but now those memories have turned into painful torture.

Wei Yingning slowly stretched out her hands and hugged Wei Yingluo tightly, as if this could make her feel a little warm.

She knew that the reason why Qingxi didn't tell her the truth was probably because he felt he couldn't face her and was afraid of going against Prince He. So he chose to accept the marriage arranged by his family and gave up their relationship.

Wei Yingning gently wiped away the tears from her eyes, looked at Wei Yingluo and said, "I'm fine, I just feel that I'm too stupid. Yingluo, you must be careful when you are alone in the Forbidden City."

She knew very well that the Forbidden City was full of dangers and intrigue, and hoped that her sister could protect herself.

Wei Yingluo nodded to show her understanding. She knew her sister had always been a strong person, and although she was hurt this time, she believed that she would gradually get out of the shadow.

However, Wei Yingluo also understood that the pain in her sister's heart would take time to heal.

"Sister, don't worry." Wei Yingluo said with a smile, her eyes sparkling.

"By the way, when you get home, don't forget to say hello to Brother Zhou Yi for me!" Wei Yingluo blinked mischievously and pretended to sound relaxed and cheerful.

"Hmm?" Wei Yingning was a little confused, but still nodded.

"I heard that he is going to take part in the imperial examination this year. How amazing!" Wei Yingluo exclaimed with a hint of admiration in her eyes.

"Yes, Brother Zhou Yi has always worked very hard." Wei Yingning agreed, recalling the scenes of playing with Zhou Yi when they were young.

"Sister, he has been very good to us since we were young and always took care of us, so we must thank him very much when we go back this time!" Wei Yingluo emphasized with a serious tone.

"Yeah, I know." Wei Yingning nodded again, feeling a warm feeling in her heart.

Wei Yingluo looked at Wei Yingning with a sly smile on her face, as if hiding some secret.

In fact, she had already written a letter to Zhou Yi, Wei's neighbor and Wei Yingning's childhood sweetheart, telling him that her sister was leaving the palace today and asking him to protect her sister more in the future.

Wei Yingluo knew that Zhou Yi would definitely come to greet Wei Yingning.

Since she was little, she has always seen that Zhou Yi has special feelings for her sister. However, Wei Yingning was still young at that time and was not sensitive to the relationship between men and women, so she did not notice his feelings. Now, Wei Yingluo sincerely hopes that Zhou Yi can seize this rare opportunity to express his feelings.

"Yingluo, can you tell me how Zhiheng is doing now? Although the Queen has sentenced her to the Ministry of Punishment, she can still leave the palace when she is old enough, but I haven't seen her."

When Wei Yingning asked this question, she actually already had an answer in her heart, but she just didn't want to believe it.
