Chapter 004 Conditions

The imperial doctor raised his hand and replied: "The princess is indeed poisoned. The official has detoxified the princess. She will be fine after a few days of rest."

All the officials were in an uproar, "The eldest princess came to the Marquis Mansion to worship and was poisoned. Who is so bold? Who is behind this? We must strictly investigate."

"Yes, please ask the imperial doctor to check the incense and other items in front of the coffin to find out why the princess was poisoned?"

Someone took the imperial doctor there.

Ling Xin listened to the officials' discussion indifferently, then opened the door and entered the room.

On the large carved bed, Han Rui's face was as beautiful as gold paper, her slender willow eyebrows were slightly frowned, and Rouge stood by her side with her hands hanging down.

"You are so talented, but you still dare to do everything in front of me."

He looked at the unconscious person meaningfully and shifted his gaze to Yanzhi.

Facing his murderous gaze, Yanzhi felt that her legs were no longer able to obey her orders.

"Does the Marquis doubt the princess?"

In desperation, she simply asked.

Ling Xin turned around and said seriously: "This is what you said, I have never said it before."

Rouge was so angry that she almost bit off her tongue.

In the main hall of the front yard, Ling Xin listened to the imperial doctor's reply with a solemn face.

"Master Marquis, I found incense soaked in golden twigs in the incense burner. Golden twigs are very toxic, and the smell of the incense after soaking is even more toxic. The eldest princess is close to her and she is in poor health.

Poisoned."

"I also ask the Marquis to investigate thoroughly. The eldest princess is a precious person, how can she be harmed by others at will?"

"Please, Lord Marquis, conduct a thorough investigation."

Ling Xin's eyelids twitched slightly, he looked past everyone in the direction of the mourning hall, and let out a subtle sigh.

"check……"

It was already noon when Han Rui returned to the Princess Mansion. Lying in her bedroom, the familiar smell made her open her eyes, but she happened to meet Ling Xin's intriguing eyes, and she was so frightened that she almost screamed.

The noble man in front of her seemed to have lost a lot of his wealth, but that didn't stop her from hating her at all.

"Why is the Marquis here?"

The hands under the quilt clenched their fists without leaving any trace.

"Very surprised?"

Ling Xin lowered his head. The beautiful girl in front of him had bright black eyes and a flash of panic on her face.

panic?

Could it be that I saw it wrong?

Princess Churui, the late emperor's favorite princess, never panicked.

"How could it be possible? Isn't Sister Liu going to have a funeral today?"

His beloved Bai Yueguang was going to be buried, so how could he keep him here?

This thought came to Han Rui's mind, and it immediately spiraled into the sky.

"Today, hundreds of officials and wives have come to pay their respects, so it is most appropriate for the funeral to take place tomorrow."

He said this sentence leisurely from his thin lips, and then his sharp eyes turned to her face again, "It's interesting to go back on your word, isn't it?"

He turned around and swung his sleeves vigorously, causing the wind to rush straight towards Han Rui.

"Master Hou misunderstood. I promised to offer incense and kowtow to her, so I will go right away."

She lifted up the quilt and got out of bed. Rouge opened the curtain and happened to see this scene. He quickly put down the tray in his hand and came forward to push her onto the bed.

"Princess, the imperial doctor said that you need to rest for a few days."

Han Rui caught a glimpse of Ling Xin's inquiring look from the corner of her eye, and said firmly: "Gress me up, and I will go to pay homage to Madam Marquis Jingguo."

That firm tone brooked no disobedience.

Rouge couldn't resist her, and it took him half an hour to change her clothes and make up. At least she could barely cover up the haggard look on her face.

Ling Xin looked at her back with a half-smile, her black hair was like a waterfall, and he was suddenly in a daze.

"I'll be waiting for you in the Marquis' Mansion." He waved his sleeves and left, the door clanking as if to vent his dissatisfaction and suspicion.

Yanzhi tidied Han Rui's hair and persuaded softly: "Princess, why bother? The imperial doctor has said that you need to recuperate for a few days, why do you have to go? How can Liu Rumei and He De make the princess kneel down? In the whole world, you only kneel down."

After the late Emperor and the Queen Mother, who is Liu Rumei?"

"Rouge, I have a deep meaning in doing this. If you have such an attitude, just stay in the house."

Rouge immediately changed her face, "This slave will be punished by death. Please allow me to follow you, otherwise I won't be able to relax."

Through the panic on her face, Han Rui saw her loyalty, her die-hard loyalty.

"Watch your words. You serve me personally. You should be careful with your words and deeds. If you continue to be so careless about what you say, I'm afraid this princess's palace won't be able to accommodate you."

"yes."

When I came to the Jingguo Marquis Mansion again, white flags were fluttering all over the house, and the lonely back of the noble man was like a knife piercing his heart.

Han Rui walked over with her skirt in hand, took the incense offered by the maid, then knelt on the bluestone tile floor and kowtowed sincerely.

Rouge was so angry that she gritted her teeth, but she remembered her master's words and didn't dare to speak at all.

Han Rui stood up, and she quickly rushed over and picked her up.

"Princess, you are still weak, please go back home and rest."

Han Rui stood still. She turned her head slightly and met the man's cold gaze, as if asking.

"Princess Jin Zhi Jade Leaves, do you think that you can write it off by kowtowing to Rumei and sticking an incense stick on your head?"

Rouge was so angry that she almost wanted to talk again, but she swallowed it back at the critical moment.

Han Rui smiled bitterly, with a hint of blush finally appearing on her pale face, "When the Japanese Palace was confused for a moment and made a big mistake, and now it has kowtowed to admit its mistake, I wonder how the Marquis still wants me to atone for my sins?"

Because her breath was unstable, her words were weak.

"It depends on the princess's sincerity."

Ling Xin turned around and stopped looking at her.

"Master Hou, it's better to say it clearly."

Han Rui felt that everything in front of her was spinning. She was dizzy, but she had to hold on. She obviously didn't do it by herself, so why did she have to kowtow by herself? The moment she knelt down on the bluestone floor, her knees hurt.

It still hurts, and I'm afraid my fair knees are already bruised.

"It is better for the princess to ask for peace. When I clear up the civil strife, the Queen Mother will give me the land of Bashu."

"This matter is of great importance and I need to consider it."

The original owner had killed Bai Yueguang in his heart. There was no point in continuing the relationship between the couple. The separation was trivial, but the land of Bashu bordered on southern Xinjiang. If he had second thoughts, wouldn't he give up the country to others.

Her mind was spinning.

"Then the eldest princess must think carefully. I have received news that the deposed prince has arrived in Xuancheng with his troops."

Although her words were lighthearted, they were extremely cold, making Han Rui shiver, and she did not dare to delay any longer.

"Master Hou is just waiting for the news."

The gorgeous carriage went straight to the palace, and Han Rui sat in the carriage with a pale face.

Yanzhi handed her the prepared ginseng tea.

"Princess, close your eyes and rest your mind. You are weak and cannot withstand such hard work."

"Okay, I'll take a nap for a while."

She didn't show off, and leaned on the soft pillow obediently, closing her eyes and taking a nap.

The carriage entered the palace, went to the harem, then transferred to a soft sedan and went straight to the Zhaoyang Palace of the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother is arranging flowers, and there are two or three delicate peonies in a long-necked white porcelain vase.

She stepped forward and bowed slightly: "My son, I have met my mother."

The Queen Mother's eyes darkened, and with some force on her hands, the flower that bloomed best fell from the branch onto the table.

The room was eerily quiet, and the serving maids and eunuchs tried their best to control their breathing.

Han Rui also became nervous for no reason.
