Chapter 700 Inside and Outside the Palace

Mrs. Wang browed, obviously she didn't expect Murong Hui to do this.

"Your Highness, you are just using your power to suppress others. Could it be that you want to detain your wife in the palace?"

A little anger appeared in her voice, and she was obviously angry with Murong Hui.

"Mrs. Wang's words are interesting. Your Highness is clearly for the sake of the Lord Cheng County. She is taking care of the imperial physician in the palace. Where can ordinary doctors compare with the imperial physician?"

When Gao Ziyue heard Mrs. Wang's words, she hurriedly spoke. Although she didn't know why Murong Hui wanted to take over this mess, she still stood firmly on Murong Hui's side.

"Your Highness, my wife beg you. My master has always loved Cheng'er. Now Cheng'er has become like this, but he can't even take a look at him. He is so anxious that his heart is as if he is a knife. If the wife cannot bring Cheng'er back, the master will be even more sad..."

Seeing that it was so hard that Mrs. Wang was soft, she immediately knelt on the ground with a thud and started to plead.

Her face changed quickly enough. She was full of anger the first second, but her eyes were wailing in tears on the other side.

If any man sees this, he may feel pity.

It’s a pity that she is facing Murong Hui now, so she naturally won’t pity this Mrs. Wang.

She shook her head slightly and said, "Mrs. Wang is afraid she is extremely anxious all the way and is so tired. Hurry up and help Mrs. Wang to rest. Chen Yuan judge, please take your pulse for Mrs. Wang."

Chen Yuanzong knew what Murong Hui meant as soon as he heard this. Zuo just made Mrs. Wang sick and saved them from bothering them.

"How is the review?"

At this time, Madam Huang walked into the door with a look of fatigue. Murong Hui also knew that she must have worked very hard today, but there were not many people available around her, so she had to continue to work hard.

"Cheng Xiaoxiao couldn't stand it anymore. She said that she saw Liu Ning and the Lord Cheng of County. The old slave tried Liu Ning and admitted that she had hurt the Lord Cheng of County. It had nothing to do with others and refused to say anything else."

Madam Huang sighed, knowing that things are not as simple as they appear.

But these noble ladies are not palace servants from Shenxingsi, and they can neither beat or scold them, so they have no way to start.

"Shut Liu Ning alone, don't let her have any accidents. And don't give them any food or water. Let's talk about the rest tomorrow morning."

Liu Ning is another companion to Princess Wanning. She was born in Anyang Bo Mansion and was a very silent person.

In the study room, she had no presence, but she looked very similar to her master, Princess Wanning.

If this matter was confessed by Cheng Xiaoxiao, she might believe that Cheng Xiaoxiao attacked the Lord Cheng County because of her own personal grudges.

But with Liu Ning's temperament, she would not be so impulsive. She probably was a scapegoat this time. As for who she replaced, the parties involved also knew.

Murong Hui was in a complicated mood by signing the confession in her hand.

She understood a little why Princess Wanning was so abnormal and slapped Madam Huang.

With Liu Ning's connections in the palace, he was absolutely incapable of sending the half-dead County Lord Cheng into the dark room through the ice cellar.

But Princess Wanning can do it, but she doesn't know what role she plays in this matter.

"Your Highness, it's fine if someone else is the royal relative or your cousin, is it really not even prepared for her?"

Xu Qing looked at Murong Hui with some concern. She knew that this matter involved many things and did cause serious consequences. However, she was afraid that others would have objected to Murong Hui because of this matter, so she couldn't help but remind her.

"I don't give them food and drink, just because I'm afraid that some people will tamper with it and then poison someone to death."

Murong Hui said it very directly, after all, none of the people present were outsiders.

Gao Ziyue didn't think so much, but after hearing Murong Hui's words, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

She seemed to be frightened, and sat next to Murong Hui and said nothing.

"Go and find Qingyan and send a few people to guard Cheng County Lord day and night. No matter how she cannot die until the matter is found out."

Murong Hui stood up and said to the palace maid beside her.

The palace maids were also from the East Side Palace, so they knew that if Murong Hui was not good, they would not have any good things, so they responded quickly and left in a hurry.

"Your Highness, I have just taken the pulse for Mrs. Wang and found that Mrs. Wang is pregnant for two months. It's just that she has been overly worried recently, which has hurt her body and needs to be well-off, otherwise there may be a possibility of a fertility."

The imperial physician in the palace never talks nonsense. He had just checked that Mrs. Wang was in very healthy, and this was the only "illness" he could find out.

"Send a few good ginseng to Mrs. Wang, Madam Huang, you personally send Mrs. Wang out of the palace."

Murong Hui nodded and ordered Madam Huang who had just returned from dinner.

Madam Huang responded and hurried towards the East Nuan Pavilion with two palace maids.

Murong Hui was restless all day long. After finishing all the work, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She sat at the table and looked at the confession on the table with some fatigue.

"You guys should go to bed early, and you will go to the study room tomorrow morning."

Seeing that Xu Qing and Gao Ziyue had not left, Murong Hui urged in a low voice.

She sat at the table and continued to stare at the Lord Cheng County, wishing she could wake up immediately and tell herself who made her like this.

"Your Highness, let's stay with you for a while. You're so bored here."

Gao Ziyue resisted the urge to yawn and said helplessly with his chin.

She had known that Murong Hui was very tired in assisting in the entire palace affairs, but she did not expect that the difficulties were so difficult.

She simply found some interesting topics and started chatting with Murong Hui. The three of them were chatting together, but they were actually not interested.

In the past, they chatted like this, and they always felt that time passed quickly.

However, somehow they felt it was particularly difficult to bear tonight and time passed very slowly.

Lin Yingxue, who was in the palace at the same time, also frowned. She was very upset now and was paced back and forth in the empty main hall.

It’s not that she is not sure about the difficulties Murong Hui is facing now, but she doesn’t care about so many things now. The difficulties in front of her have already made her unable to take care of herself.

She and Murong Jun came to live in the palace, on the surface to escape the summer heat, but actually to avoid the eyes and ears in the palace.

This allowed Murong Jun to leave the capital without everyone's knowledge and go outside the capital to handle official business.

Now in the palace, the only master on the surface is her and Murong Jun's substitute.

This substitute only looks exactly the same as Murong Jun on the surface, but in fact she has no ability at all.

Lin Yingxue alone has to take care of the affairs in the court. When he meets ministers on weekdays, he has to give advice from Lin Yingxue, otherwise this substitute can't hide it from the ministers at all.

Even so, she still encountered a headache today.

The things she has to face every day are much more complicated and dangerous than Murong Hui.

At this time, she was holding a secret letter from Tongzhou, which clearly stated that Murong Jun disappeared just one day after leaving the city.

Nowadays, even the eyes in Tongzhou cannot find Murong Jun’s whereabouts.

After learning the news, Lin Yingxue quickly sent a second group of people out to Tongzhou to find Murong Jun's whereabouts.

It's already late at night, but there is still no news at all, which really makes her very anxious.

"Empress..."

At this time, a cautious voice came from behind.

Lin Yingxue turned her head and saw the substitute holding a brush and looking at her carefully.

Seeing her looking over, the substitute immediately avoided her gaze, and a look of fear flashed across her face.

Lin Yingxue felt uncomfortable when she saw him, but she still walked over with her teeth and took the memorial from him, and found that it was a memorial to pay tribute.

However, this memorial was written by the assistant director stationed in Jizhou, saying that he would return to Beijing to report his duties soon and would come to pay tribute to the emperor.

"This man has always been a fence-bearer, but he has served as a co-leader in Jizhou for many years and has been intricate with local relations. He had no major problems at the beginning, so he was not liquidated. What does he mean now?"

Lin Yingxue put down the note and murmured to herself.

"Maybe... I just want to come and ask for peace."

The substitute was not clear about the situation in the court and could not understand it. Seeing Lin Yingxue so distressed, she was very puzzled and said carefully.

"After a moment, I will write a remark to the Jizhou Associate Leader. You can recite all the remarks quickly so that you can deal with him at that time."

Lin Yingxue was not that optimistic. Although this Jizhou assistant leader didn't have many soldiers, he had some forces.

More importantly, he was unfaithful and chose this time to pay his respects, most of whom he was here to test Murong Jun.

Therefore, this substitute must be dealt with well, otherwise it may not be hidden.

The substitute nodded, opened the next memorial and handed it to Lin Yingxue with both hands.

Despite his annoyance, Lin Yingxue still had to patience and finish the memorial and temporarily stabilize the situation.

At this moment, the general manager of the guard suddenly walked in quietly. Lin Yingxue hurriedly asked, "Is there any news?"

"The person who stayed in Tongzhou found His Majesty's personal eunuch in an alley. The man was breathing a sigh of relief and was still unconscious."

The guard general was also worried. If these loyal emperors failed to protect the emperor, the fate would be very miserable.

But now he had no choice but to put his hope on Lin Yingxue, hoping that she could come up with some clever plans.

"Which eunuch?"

Lin Yingxue's heart skipped a beat, and she clenched her fists and asked in a state of calmness.

"He Huan."

Hearing these two words, Lin Yingxue suddenly let go of her clenched fists, as if she was relieved.

Before leaving the capital, Murong Jun once said that there were spies around him, and some newly approved memorials had been published before they could be published.

After checking it over and over, he felt that the spy was most likely He Huan. If he suddenly disappeared on this trip and He Huan was killed, he would probably have been safe.

"We need to step up our investigation, and we must find His Majesty."

Although she calmed down, she did not inform others of the news, so as not to reveal any flaws and affect Murong Jun's plan.
