Chapter 394 Concubine Rou and her son return

"Your son already knows the situation, but I don't know what the situation of my father and grandmother is like now?" Feng Wuhen said truthfully.

"Your royal grandmother, I went to see her a few days ago, she is fine, but your royal father and royal mother have not seen him for more than half a month."

"Every time I went to pay my respects to him, a strange eunuch would reject me by saying that the emperor was busy with official duties. This happened several times in a row."

"Later, I gave up, but within two days, I heard two rumors coming out of the palace. One was that the emperor was ill, and the other was that the emperor was controlled by Concubine Rou and Prince Kang..."

Concubine Xian told Feng Wuhen and Jiang Yimo everything she knew.

Hearing this, Jiang Yimo immediately frowned, "Empress Xian, before the prince and I went on a long journey, I took the emperor's pulse. At that time, he was in good health. I didn't see any signs of illness. Moreover, I have been taking care of his body. How could he suddenly become seriously ill? There must be something fishy going on."

Jiang Yimo said this very calmly, but when Empress Xian heard this, her face suddenly turned as pale as paper.

"Momo, who knows about your treatment of the emperor?"

Empress Xian held Jiang Yimo's hand tightly and asked with a slightly trembling voice.

Jiang Yimo frowned, thought for a moment and then answered, "Besides the emperor, only Eunuch Li knows about it. Eunuch Li would not dare to spread rumors about the emperor's physical condition."

After hearing this, Empress Xian sighed deeply and let out a breath of foul air.

"I hope that Eunuch Li can stand the test. Otherwise, if the emperor really falls, Concubine Rou and her son will know that the emperor has been taking your medicine. They will definitely frame you and even implicate the Gu family." Empress Xian said worriedly.

Jiang Yimo's heart tightened, and she quickly comforted him, "Your Majesty, don't worry too much. I only prescribed three days of medicine for the emperor, and he should have finished taking it long ago. Concubine Rou and Prince Kang should not have noticed anything. And that eunuch Li is a smart man. I have done him a favor, and he is grateful. I believe he will not speak nonsense."

However, Empress Xian's eyes were still full of worry. She shook her head and said, "I hope so. But we can't take it lightly. We must be prepared for all possible situations."

Then, Concubine Xian suddenly thought of something and immediately urged: "Momo, you and Hen'er, leave here quickly, quickly! Concubine Rou and her son..."

However, before she could finish her words, she heard hurried footsteps outside the hall.

"Oh no! Concubine Rou and the others are coming. Xiao Meng, take them and hide quickly." When Concubine Xian heard the footsteps outside the palace, her face suddenly turned pale and her voice trembled involuntarily.

Upon hearing this, Aunt Meng immediately responded, and then quickly took Jiang Yimo and Feng Wuhen to hide under the screen curtain behind the hall.

At the same time, Concubine Rou and Prince Kang had already stepped into the door of Concubine Xian's palace.

Aunt Meng took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, then hurried out from the back of the hall and saluted Concubine Rou and Prince Kang.

"Why did you and your son come to my Liuli Palace? Concubine Rou, do you really think I am so easy to bully?"

When Concubine Xian saw Concubine Rou and her son come in, she spoke first.

"Stop talking nonsense! You know the reason why I came here. Has the Evil King been to your place?" Concubine Rou asked Concubine Xian angrily.

"Oh! Concubine Rou, you are sick, my son has been away for a while and has not returned to the imperial city. How can I see him? I am not like Concubine Rou who has a pair of clairvoyance."

Empress Xian glanced at her with disdain and sneered in her tone.

When Concubine Rou heard this, she became furious and uncontrollable.

"I don't want to talk to you any more. Hurry and hand over the evil king, or I will kill you."

As she spoke, Concubine Rou turned around and quickly drew the sword from the young guard standing behind her, and without hesitation put the sword on Concubine Xian's neck.

Empress Xian lowered her eyes and glanced at the long sword on her neck. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, but her eyes revealed a hint of provocation and disdain.

She deliberately provoked Concubine Rou and whispered, "Concubine Rou, if you are really capable, just kill me now."

When Concubine Rou heard this, a trace of anger flashed in her eyes, and the sword in her hand began to tremble.

She gnashed her teeth and said, "Do you think I really don't dare? The people I dislike the most in recent years are you and that bitch who lives in Fengqi Palace. If it weren't for her, I would be the queen who rules the country."

Concubine Xian sneered, her tone full of sarcasm: "With your appearance, you still want to be the queen who rules the country. If it weren't for the Queen Mother, you wouldn't even be able to climb to the position of concubine."

If you want to kill me, then come on! Do it, don’t you hate me very much?”

She seemed to have no fear of death at all, but rather seemed somewhat calm.

Concubine Rou was so angry at Concubine Xian's words that her face turned blue, and she was unable to refute for a moment.

She stared at Concubine Xian with wide eyes, her heart filled with anger and resentment.

However, faced with Concubine Xian's calm attitude, she did not dare to take action.

Because if they killed Concubine Xian, they would not be able to threaten the evil king into submission. That bastard would definitely go crazy and seek revenge on them and their son.

Seeing that Concubine Rou was hesitant, Concubine Xian smiled and said, "Why? You don't dare to do it? You are just a cowardly woman."

Concubine Rou was enraged by Concubine Xian's words. She suddenly raised her sword and prepared to stab Concubine Xian.

Prince Kang, who was standing next to Concubine Rou, was about to stop her.

But at this moment, Concubine Xian suddenly made a move, grabbed Concubine Rou's wrist, twisted it hard, and took the sword away.

Concubine Xian held a long sword in her hand, pointed it at Concubine Rou, and said coldly: "Concubine Rou, with your little ability, you still want to kill me?"

Concubine Rou looked at Concubine Xian in horror. She didn't expect that Concubine Xian knew martial arts and even took away her weapon.

Although Concubine Xian only knows some mediocre kung fu, it is easy for her to snatch the sharp sword from Concubine Rou, who is pampered and has no ability to fight back.

"Empress Xian, you old bitch actually know martial arts, and you hid it so well!" Concubine Rou's eyes were wide open, filled with anger and astonishment.

"I am the daughter of a general, so it's normal for me to know some basic martial arts." Empress Xian raised the corner of her mouth slightly, her tone relaxed.

"Yes, I forgot that you come from a military family." Concubine Rou said gritting her teeth.

Then, she wanted to say something else, but was stopped by King Kang.

"Mother, don't forget the purpose of our return to the Liuli Palace." Prince Kang reminded.

When Concubine Rou heard this, a hint of shrewdness and calculation flashed across her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.

So she nodded slightly to show that she understood what King Kang meant.
