My best friend is wearing a double body! Marry the emperor! Help me win the throne

Imperial Palace, Minghua Hall.

"Biyu, have you found out everything? What did the Imperial Hospital say?"

In order to find out Murong Ye's condition, Xue Qingyao pretended to be sick and sent Biyu to the Imperial Hospital to get a prescription.

Biyu met her anxious gaze and shook her head, saying, "The people in the Imperial Hospital are keeping their mouths shut about the Xian Wang's injury, and there are guards at the gate of the courtyard where the Xian Wang lives. No one is allowed to approach."

Xue Qingyao's expression changed.

Could it be that Murong Che wanted to take this opportunity to kill Murong Ye quietly?

It seems that God wants to kill Murong Ye, so it’s not her fault.

Xue Qingyao clenched her hands and made a decision in her heart.

Since Murong Ye was already half dead, there was no need for her to waste time on him.

From today on, she will abandon Murong Ye and surrender to Murong Che.

Ever since Murong Ye was stabbed by Lan Zheng, those ministers in the court who originally supported him have shown signs of distancing themselves from Prince Xian's Mansion.

It won’t be long before the Xianwang Party will be won over by Murong Che.

Anyway, she has successfully entered the emperor's bedchamber. The most important thing in the future is to compete with Xue Youli for the opportunity to enter the emperor's bedchamber. As long as she can be the first to give birth to the emperor's eldest son, she will have a way to help her son ascend the throne.

Thinking of this, Xue Qingyao changed the subject and said with a smile, "The Emperor must have his reasons for doing this. You saw how badly His Royal Highness the Virtuous Prince was injured that day. If we don't let anyone disturb the Virtuous Prince, his injuries will heal faster."

Biyu was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Master is right! Do I still need to go to the Imperial Hospital to get medicine tomorrow?"

"No need, it's just a minor cold. I'll be well again tomorrow after taking the medicine prescribed by the Imperial Hospital." Xue Qingyao recalled the day when Murong Ye was stabbed by Lan Zheng, and couldn't help but sigh softly, "The Gu worms of Nanzhao are truly extraordinary. I wish I could get them."

She even dreamed of stabbing Xue Youli to death with a knife. If she had the puppet Gu in her hand, she could control the puppet to do things for her that she dared not do.

It’s a pity that refining puppet Gu is a secret technique of Nanzhao. How can she get it just because she wants to?

Biyu saw what her mistress was thinking, and after rolling her eyes, she said to her, "My mistress, on the way back, I heard some eunuchs discussing the Nanzhao envoys. They said that General Meng had taken Princess Lanluo to Zicheng Palace to bid farewell to the emperor, and that their envoys seemed to be taking Princess Lanluo back to Nanzhao."

Xue Qingyao's eyelids twitched when she heard this. "Didn't Lan Luo want to stay in Jiuzhou for the marriage? Why did he want to go back to Nanzhao?"

If Lan Luo left, she would never have the chance to learn about the Nanzhao Gu worm.

Before, everyone speculated that the poisonous insect in Lan Zheng was planted by Lan Luo in order to eliminate a competitor.

After all, Lan Zheng is older than her. If the emperor wants to grant a marriage, he will definitely give Lan Zheng priority.

I didn't expect Lan Luo to be so bold and ruthless.

Biyu shook her head. "I don't know the specific reason, but the eunuch's story is so convincing, it shouldn't be fake news."

No! Before Meng Shi and the others returned to Nanzhao, she had to find a way to meet with Lan Luo alone!

Xue Qingyao had a plan in her mind. If it succeeded, Xue Youli would die without anyone knowing.

The more she thought about it, the more excited she became. She quickly said to Biyu, "Bring some cakes and follow me to Zicheng Palace. If you see Princess Lanluo, I want to talk to her."

Although Biyu had not been with Xue Qingyao for a long time, she knew her character very well.

At this moment, looking at the calculation in Xue Qingyao's eyes, Biyu could probably guess what Xue Qingyao was thinking in her heart.

Just thinking of Lan Zheng's horrible appearance that day made her heart tremble uncontrollably.

She pondered over it again and again in her heart, and finally spoke out to persuade, "Master, many people outside are saying that Princess Lanluo might be the real murderer of Princess Lanzheng and His Royal Highness the Xianwang. You should not get too close to her, otherwise, if something like that happens in the palace again in the future, what will you do if others suspect you?"

After all, she was Xue Qingyao's personal maid. If anything happened to Xue Qingyao, she would be the first to suffer.

In order to prevent her master from making mistakes, Biyu felt that as a loyal servant, it was necessary for her to remind her master at this time.

Xue Qingyao ran to see Lan Luo now. If puppet poison hurts people again in the palace in the future, she would definitely be the biggest suspect.

Xue Qingyao heard the hidden meaning in her words and scoffed, "You don't think I'd rush to Lan Luo without even considering the consequences, do you? I've been to the library these past few days to read books about Nanzhao Gu worms, and I've already figured out what Puppet Gu is. You can rest assured, even if I get Puppet Gu, I'll be able to remove it myself."

Seeing her confident appearance, Biyu felt even more uncertain. "Master, Concubine Xue is cunning. Can she just stand there and wait for you to plant the Gu in her?"

Princess Lan Luo was a native of Nanzhao. She had been exposed to poisonous insects since childhood and was unable to completely remove them in this accident.

Xue Qingyao just read a few books and talked about it on paper. What good can it do?

Xue Qingyao had already thought it through. Since the child Gu obeys the person who owns the mother Gu, then after Xue Youli is infected with the Gu, she will directly let Xue Youli burn himself to death. Not only will this solve her biggest worry, but even the evidence of the Gu worm will be burned by fire. Who can still suspect her?

The more Xue Qingyao thought about it, the more she felt that she was extremely wise and intelligent.

"Xue Youli and I have been fighting for so long, and it's already a fight to the death. Even if I don't kill her, she won't let me go. In that case, why don't we strike first?"

"But……"

Biyu was still very worried, but Xue Qingyao interrupted her impatiently before she could finish her words, "Don't say buts! We have to hurry to Zicheng Palace. If we're too late, Meng Shi and Lan Luo will be out of the palace!"

Seeing that Xue Qingyao was determined to find Lan Luo, Biyu sighed softly and prayed silently in her heart, hoping that everything would go well.

After Xue Qingyao led her out of Minghua Palace, they went straight to Zicheng Palace.

The master and servant carried the cakes and hurried all the way. When they arrived at Zicheng Hall, Meng Shi and Lan Luo had just come out of the hall.

"Greetings, General Meng! Princess Luo'er!"

After Xue Qingyao greeted them, she turned her gaze and fixed it on Lan Luo. "When we went on the autumn hunt at Longshou Mountain, Princess Luo'er and I hit it off right away. When I heard that you had entered the palace with General Meng, I immediately brought some homemade cakes for you to try."

When they were at Longshou Mountain, Lan Luo and Xue Qingyao had no interaction at all, and they didn't even exchange a few words.

However, when Lan Luo saw Xue Qingyao winking at him, he guessed that she must have something to say to him.

So, Lan Luo turned to Meng Shi and said, "General Meng, Concubine Xue and I would like to chat alone for a while. Can you wait for me at the palace gate?"

Xue Qingyao saw Meng Shi's embarrassed expression and immediately reached out to hold Lan Luo's hand. "General Meng, although Princess Luo'er and I have only known each other for a short time, we are like sisters. I promise to only let her taste the cakes and chat about some private matters between girls, and then let her leave the palace."

Meng Shi hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed, "Seventh Princess, I will wait for you in the carriage outside the palace."

"it is good."

After Meng Shi turned around and left, Xue Qingyao and Lan Luo released their hands.

Lan Luo's eyes fell on Xue Qingyao's face, and he asked word by word, "I wonder what Concubine Xue wants to talk to me about?"

Xue Qingyao looked around and whispered, "Princess Luo'er, there are too many people here, let's talk for a moment."

So, Lan Luo followed her to a secluded place far away from Zicheng Palace.

"Lady Xue, can you please say what you want to say now?"

Xue Qingyao knew that Meng Shi didn't have much time left for them, so she didn't beat around the bush and said straight to the point, "Princess Luo'er, I'm a straightforward person. I know you're going back to Nanzhao soon, so I want to ask you for something."

Lan Luo frowned in confusion. "You are the concubine of the Emperor of Jiuzhou, enjoying endless wealth and glory. What on earth am I worth asking for?"

"Of course!"

Xue Qingyao stared at Lan Luo, leaned close to her ear, and said word by word, "I want your puppet Gu."

Lan Luo's body stiffened when he heard this, and his eyes turned cold as he looked at her. "Even you think I planted the Puppet Gu on Lan Zheng?"

After Lan Zheng's death, the Nanzhao envoys didn't say anything, but the look in their eyes when they looked at her was full of resentment and blame.

Obviously, they believed that the poisonous insect in Lan Zheng's body was related to her.

Although Lan Luo tried to defend herself, no one was willing to believe her.

Even Meng Shi went to the palace to meet the Emperor of Jiuzhou today. In addition to saying goodbye, more importantly, he proposed to take her back to Nanzhao with him, hoping that Murong Che would agree.

Murong Che didn't want any minister in the court to marry the Nanzhao princess, but after hearing Meng Shi's request, he agreed on the spot.

Lan Luo knew very well that the marriage had been messed up, and after returning to Nanzhao, she would have to face the terrible wrath of her father.

Lan Zheng's body had been burned, and the poisonous insect had turned into ashes in the fire.

There is no evidence to prove anything. Even if she had a hundred mouths, she would not be able to prove her innocence.

At this moment, even Xue Qingyao thought so. How could she not feel aggrieved and angry in her heart?

Xue Qingyao met her blazing eyes, her eyes rolled back, and she quickly smiled apologetically, "Princess Luo'er, of course I don't believe you would do such a thing. But you also know that no one in Jiuzhou can refine Gu worms, let alone control them, so everyone naturally believes that you are Lan Zheng's murderer. However, I am different from them. I came to you because I have a way to help you clear the name."

Biyu was watching over them from the side. After hearing what Xue Qingyao said, she was speechless. "..."

Her master's ability to lie with his eyes open is simply outrageous!

Lan Luo's eyes lit up and he couldn't wait to ask, "What do you have in mind?"
