[Quick Wear] Daily Cleansing of Trash

Liu Yanran frowned slightly.

She knew that Xie Yi had been worried about the conflict between the Crown Prince and Emperor Jinglong recently. If there was really something wrong with Concubine Rou, it might be a breakthrough.

Lipin glanced at the Crown Prince, who was cuddling beside Liu Yanran, and winked at her, "Madam, since you like children so much, why don't you have one with the Crown Prince? You two are both so good-looking, and the child you give birth to will definitely be beautiful too!"

The Crown Princess also joked, "Now that the Crown Prince is in good health, it's time to give our Jue'er a little brother!"

Liu Yanran smiled without saying anything. Thinking about Xie Yi's physical condition, Liu Yanran pondered: Why not give it a try?

After returning to the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion, Liu Yanran handed the prince's letter to Xie Yi and told him what Concubine Li said.

Xie Yi pondered: "Do you suspect that there is something wrong with Concubine Rou?"

"It's not impossible." Liu Yanran sat in front of the dressing table, casually rummaging through the jewelry in the box. "Although the emperor is old, he was in good health before. Since he married Concubine Rou last year, he has been sick every now and then. Although they are all minor ailments that can be cured with a few doses of medicine, even the strongest body cannot withstand such frequent abuse."

Liu Yanran paused and whispered to Xie Yi, "A land of gentleness is a place of heroes. We should pay more attention to some things."

Xie Yi nodded after hearing this, lit the letter he had read with a candle, and then threw it into the cup.

After combing her hair, Liu Yanran stood up and looked at Xie Yi, whose half face was illuminated by the candlelight. She saw that he was very handsome, and walked over to touch his face.

Xie Yi looked up in confusion and met Liu Yanran's smiling face.

Suddenly thinking of something, Xie Yi's face turned red. He stood up hurriedly, hesitating for a long time, and finally said "I'm going to take a shower" and ran quickly to the inner room, leaving Liu Yanran laughing behind him.

As expected, the prince's men carefully investigated Concubine Rou's background and found that there was indeed something wrong with her.

Concubine Rou turned out to be the second prince's woman.

"What exactly does the Second Prince want to do?" Marquis Zhongyong was puzzled. "He can harm the Crown Prince and even place spies close to the Emperor. What difference does it make whether he is imprisoned or not? Are the people in the Imperial Mausoleum just there to do nothing?"

Xie Yi calmly dropped a thunderbolt: "The emperor may not be well."

The Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery was shocked: "What?"

Judging from recent events, the Second Prince may have gone mad. His actions are not without traces, and a careful investigation will reveal them.

Xie Yi felt that the Second Prince was not doing these things for the throne, but rather wanted to... die together?

He was shocked by his own guess. His impression of the Second Prince was that he was unruly and conceited, but also very intelligent. In fact, he might even be smarter than the Crown Prince.

Smart people are more likely to get stuck in a rut.

Xie Yi planned to remind the prince, but whether the prince would remind Emperor Jinglong was not his business.

However, he felt that the prince would still remind Emperor Jinglong.

The Crown Prince was indecisive and always showed inappropriate softness. However, given his current relationship with Emperor Jinglong, his reminder might have the opposite effect.

Sure enough, Emperor Jinglong was terrified when he found out, and cursed the prince for being unfilial, asking why he didn't tell him earlier, and whether he was hoping that he would die soon so that he could take the throne.

The prince was stunned by the scolding and felt very aggrieved. He had just found out about it, so how could he have kept it a secret on purpose?

The relationship between father and son deteriorated sharply.

Emperor Jinglong imprisoned Concubine Rou and then quickly called the imperial physician for treatment.

The imperial doctors took the patient's pulse for a long time but still found nothing wrong.

Emperor Jinglong originally thought that the crown prince had made a mistake and that there was actually nothing wrong with him.

As a result, one morning during the court session, he fainted as soon as he stood up from the dragon throne.

At this time, the imperial doctors discovered that Emperor Jinglong was poisoned.

Liu Yanran: Could it be another secret medicine from the previous dynasty?

Yes, it is the secret medicine of the previous dynasty.

Come to think of it, if the Second Prince can get one secret medicine, he can naturally get the second one.

Anyway, the secret medicine in this world is not valuable and can be found easily. Liu Yanran has become accustomed to it.

But Emperor Jinglong was not used to it.

He didn't want to die, so he pressed the imperial doctors every day to quickly detoxify him.

If the imperial physician had been useful, Xie Yi would not have waited for death in silence.

After learning about it, the second prince laughed for a long time, gathered the remaining troops, and took frequent actions in private.

After a few days, Emperor Jinglong could no longer walk and could only lie down or sit to be served.

Concubine Rou had been executed, and Emperor Jinglong had no place to vent his anger. He became even more annoyed with the crown prince who came to pay his respects every day.

"Get out! Get out!" Emperor Jinglong threw the teacup in his hand at the prince.

The prince dodged to the side and the teacup fell to the ground. The broken pieces of porcelain bounced up and cut the prince's calf.

The prince suppressed his grievance, bowed and left.

Returning to the East Palace, the prince looked at his subordinates who were staring at him eagerly and sighed deeply.

The Crown Prince's Secretary bowed and said to the Crown Prince, "Prince, you should have made a decision earlier!"

Others also said, "There's been some unusual activity at the Imperial Mausoleum. Our people say the Second Prince has secretly mobilized personnel and contacted certain people in the court."

Xie Yi accompanied Liu Yanran to the East Palace today and stayed for a small meeting. He looked at the prince's hesitant look and shook his head in his heart.

The Crown Prince was a kind and gentle man, and if he had ascended to the throne smoothly, he would have been a capable and stable ruler. However, he and Emperor Jinglong were currently at odds with each other, and with the Second Prince eyeing him covetously, his leniency would only bring disaster to those around him.

Sure enough, a few days later, the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery received an imperial edict, saying that the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, Liu Yanran, was allowed to enter the palace to accompany the Crown Princess.

Xie Yi had an ugly expression on his face and was reluctant to accept the imperial edict.

The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict lowered his head and did not dare to look him in the eye, but just held the imperial edict high.

Marquis Zhongyong was so angry that he wanted to step forward to argue, but was stopped by Xie Yi.

After a long while, Xie Yi gritted his teeth and took the imperial edict: "Your Majesty... obey your order!"

Liu Yanran casually packed a few things and followed the eunuchs into the palace.

Looking at Liu Yanran's departing back and thinking of the news received by the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion, Xie Yi made a decision in his heart.

As they walked, Liu Yanran stopped and asked the eunuch who was leading the way with a smile: "Eunuch, have you taken the wrong path? This is not the way to the East Palace."

The eunuch who led the way lowered his head and didn't look at her: "Madam, you are joking. This is the right way." After saying that, he waved his hand, and a group of eunuchs surrounded her.

Liu Yanran frowned slightly, evaluating in her mind whether she could escape successfully if she took action here.

At this moment, Kang An, the personal eunuch of Emperor Jinglong, hurried over and saluted Liu Yanran, "Greetings to the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery. The Emperor said that the Eastern Palace is too small, and the Crown Princess has to take care of the young Crown Prince, so he has specially ordered this servant to arrange a new residence for you. Please move in!"
