"What do you mean Empress Xian is seriously ill and will die soon?"

Listening to the noise outside and Jinzhong's respectful report, Hongli, who had just woken up, looked confused.

In order to stop having nightmares, Hongli has been sleeping in Changchun Palace recently.

Of course, with the two merman maids watching him closely, he didn't have the courage to do anything shameful to Langya.

Every day he would report to Changchun Palace on time. After dinner he would take Langya out for a walk and go to bed as soon as he came back. He never gave the other concubines any chance to seduce him away!

Langhuan was also woken up. She just opened her eyes and was full of grumpiness. But when she heard the person saying that Ruyi was making a scene in the Yanx Palace, she immediately perked up.

She poked the system that was still sleeping soundly in the space and told it to get up and work without any hesitation.

"Your Majesty, since there is such a commotion outside, perhaps something serious has really happened to Concubine Xian. Why don't I accompany you to take a look?"

Hongli originally wanted to refuse.

After all, he had already determined in his heart that Ruyi was the old tree demon that Bixi mentioned. Now he was really afraid that she would become desperate and do something desperate. If she had no choice but to devour his luck, she would just scratch him to death with one claw.

Unexpectedly, when he heard that Lang Huan was actually willing to take the initiative to accompany him, the curiosity in his heart could no longer be suppressed, and he nodded hurriedly.

Soon, the couple packed up and led a large group of people towards the Yanxi Palace with great momentum.

As soon as he entered the gate of Yanx Palace, Hongli immediately lagged behind Langya in a timid manner and looked left and right suspiciously.

The key point is that he was looking at all kinds of flowers and plants in the Yanxi Palace, fearing that if he didn't pay attention for a moment, these flowers and plants would suddenly jump up and give him a big nose!

Lang Ya patted his hand helplessly to comfort him, then took the lead and stepped into the main hall.

Hongli huddled behind her, and felt that the frail figure in front of him suddenly became exceptionally majestic!

"Ahem, I pay my respects to His Majesty, and to Her Majesty the Queen. Please forgive me for being ill and not being able to stand up and salute."

When the emperor and empress entered the room, Ruyi had already drawn all the bed curtains and only stretched out one hand for Doctor Jiang to feel her pulse through the silk handkerchief.

"Nothing. Well, Ruyi, I heard that you suddenly fell ill, and you were very ill, so I came with the Queen to see you. Doctor Jiang, what happened to Concubine Xian?"

Hongli looked at Doctor Jiang sternly, yet with a little expectation in his heart, it would be best if Ruyi died of illness directly, so that he wouldn't have to worry every day.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Xian..."

Kneeling on the ground, Doctor Jiang, who had been asked to take the patient's pulse several times, was a little hesitant.

When Hongli saw his posture, he couldn't help but feel happy. He felt that God had opened his eyes and took the initiative to capture the demon and eliminate the harm!

Therefore, when he spoke again, he couldn't help but seem a little excited.

"How can you be so arrogant! Concubine Xian was fine a few days ago, why is she suddenly so sick that she can't get up today? Tell me now!"

In the eyes of the interested person (Ruyi), the excitement expressed by Hongli became evidence of his true love for her.

At the same time, it also made Ruyi more convinced that Hongli's sudden order to confine her to house arrest must have been to protect her!

"Okay, Your Majesty, please don't blame Doctor Jiang. My illness is strange. Maybe it's not an ordinary disease, but I was harmed by someone!"

"Your Majesty, I am not very skilled and cannot tell what illness Empress Xian has!"

Ruyi and Doctor Jiang's voices rang out almost at the same time. There was a momentary silence in the air for three seconds. Then, everyone heard Ruyi sitting up in shock from her dying illness and screaming in an even hoarse voice:

"You are talking nonsense! How can I be fine now that I am in this state? I can't even see any symptoms! Jiang Yubin, how dare you deceive His Majesty! You are so bold!"

Jiang Yubin couldn't help but get anxious after being suddenly blamed by Ruyi. He really couldn't care less about惢心's expression at this moment. Of course, saving his life was the most important thing!

So he quickly pointed to the heavens and the earth and swore, saying with a serious face:

"Your Majesty, I have no intention of deceiving you. I have checked Empress Xian's pulse three times and she is healthy all the time!

If the Emperor and the Empress do not believe it, they can summon other imperial physicians to come and diagnose Concubine Xian’s pulse!

If I dare to tell even a single lie, I will make my entire family lose all blessings and fortune, live in poverty and misery, and wander for half our lives!"

Hearing that Jiang Yubin dared to make such a vicious oath, everyone present was deeply shocked for a moment!

He is swearing an oath!

Make the whole clan swear an oath!

He must be telling the truth!

Otherwise, how could he dare to swear such a vicious oath! ?

Since Jiang Yubi was telling the truth, then who else could be lying? It must be Ruyi!

Veins bulged on Hongli's forehead, and he was increasingly suspicious that everything that happened today was a conspiracy designed by Ruyi!

Because he locked Ruyi up and prevented her from contacting herself, she was unable to continue to attack him. Ruyi was forced into a desperate situation and had to take the risk. She used her illness as an excuse to make a big deal out of it in order to trick him into harming her!

Humph, what a pity! This monster had planned everything, but he didn't expect that he would have his beloved Langya by his side, and that he could get the protection of the merman maid. Now, he is showing his true colors in a hurry!

"Someone, go and call all the doctors on duty at the Imperial Hospital to come over and have them examine Empress Xian! One! One!"

Hongli's voice suddenly turned cold, and what came back was an unbelievable trembling voice from Ruyi inside the curtain:

"Brother Hongli, even you don't believe me... It's obvious that Jiang Yubin has evil intentions and someone wants to harm me!"

"We will tell you how it goes after the doctors diagnose you later!"

He swung his sleeves angrily, and relying on Langya being by his side, he was sure that Ruyi would not dare to attack him directly, so he relaxed and sat down to wait.

He must expose this old tree demon today!

A quarter of an hour later.

The panting imperial doctors lined up and knelt on the ground in unison, but their words were exactly the same as Jiang Yubi's - Ruyi's body was absolutely 100% healthy!

She is even stronger than Bai Ruiji, who seems to be the best fighter in the Yanxi Palace but is actually suffering from illness! She is as strong as a calf!

"Your Majesty, we are not well-trained and cannot diagnose what disease Concubine Xian is suffering from!"

Hearing this, Hongli was so angry that he trembled all over. A good person had to make such a scene. If it weren't for Bixi's warning, if he were the old him, he would have come running to see Ruyi by now.

By then, won't she be able to do whatever she wants?!

"What a great Empress Xian! What else do you have to say!?"

"Your Majesty... at this point, I have no right to defend myself."
