Chapter 456 Bestowing Wine
"Master Gongsun, let's do as you say! I will immediately send someone to Xiliang to obtain the medicine!"
She would rather Qingzhu live than die!
Looking at the handsome man in the ice coffin, Wu Weiwei felt a pang of sorrow.
Qingzhu, even if you become a fool, I will make sure you are a happy fool!
……
For the past two days, Wu Weiwei has put aside all her work and stayed with Qingzhu in Hanyingjian.
She whispered in his ear about their past in the capital and how they met.
Wu Weiwei's actions were not intended to wake him up, but it would be best if Qingzhu could wake up. If he couldn't, then Gongsun Yuan's method would be the only option.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report to you!"
"Say!"
“Guard Kuli has not returned to his quarters for two days. Someone saw him leave Qingwu Kingdom…”
Upon hearing the report, Wu Weiwei sighed.
I don't know what Kuli was thinking.
He usually guarded Qingzhu's ice coffin diligently, but he hasn't shown up since he stormed off in anger that day. Wu Weiwei thought he was hiding and sulking, but...
"My lord, could it be that he has returned to the Western Liang Kingdom?"
Chunxiao guessed.
The Luo family's main base is in the Western Liang Kingdom. Since they are not guarding Chief Qing at Cold Eagle Gorge, they must have returned to the Luo family.
"Maybe!"
But Wu Weiwei knew that he was probably unwilling to let Qingzhu become an idiot, and that his departure must be to find an antidote for Qingzhu!
In fact, besides the method mentioned by Gongsun Zhenren, Wu Weiwei had also sent people to seek an antidote earlier.
We just have to see if we can find it before the bamboo's life force is completely cut off.
However, Gongsun Yuan also said that there is no cure for this poison.
But she was willing to leave with regrets.
Kuli is not her person, and she cannot control whether he stays or leaves.
After escaping from Cold Eagle Gorge, Ku Li resolutely decided to return to the Luo family after learning of Wu Weiwei's decision.
Wu Weiwei's predicament doesn't mean the Luo family of Xiliang has no way out.
Moreover, the Blood Vine that the old man mentioned originated from the Western Liang Kingdom.
Perhaps our master has a way to cure the young master's poison?
While Wu Weiwei was dealing with the matter of Qingzhu's poisoning, the Princess of Le'an County received an emergency letter.
Looking at the letter bearing the emperor's seal, the eldest princess gave a cold smile.
Li Mingchen, you've finally met your match.
In his letter, Emperor Mingcheng confessed his difficulties to himself, hoping that the Princess would be magnanimous and help him overcome them.
Emperor Mingcheng also promised him that if she would send troops to rescue him, he would allow the Crown Prince to marry Wu Weiwei.
At that time, her daughter will succeed her as the empress of the Great Wei.
Seeing her mistress's expression, Granny Shi asked worriedly, "Princess, you don't actually believe what he said, do you?"
The "he" that Granny Shi was referring to was naturally the Emperor.
"Granny, these two all know that the princess is my weakness, and they also know that I want the princess to climb to a higher position, but why doesn't Wei'er know that?"
Two days ago, my subordinates sent word that Vera had not gone missing, but had gone to the sea.
According to his investigation, a new country called Qingwu Kingdom has recently emerged in the sea.
Could it be that Wei'er went to the Qingwu Kingdom?
But what place could be safer than her Le'an County?
If she truly wanted to go into business, or even to have supreme power in the Great Wei, her mother could certainly help her.
But Wei'er chose to hold a grudge against her and constantly went against her.
This personality, this stubbornness, is exactly like mine.
"Princess, the Princess probably doesn't want to put you in a difficult position, but I believe she will understand your good intentions in the future..."
"Hehe, I hope so!"
Looking at the letter in her hand, the princess made a decision.
"Lingchu, let them make their move!"
The Hall of Nourishing Heart.
Emperor Cheng's illness worsened, and now he can't even get out of bed.
If Chen Weiyang hadn't obeyed the summons and led an army of 200,000 back, the Western Liang Kingdom might not have been willing to withdraw its troops. Only after a standoff did they manage to force the Western Liang Kingdom to retreat.
Although this matter was resolved, Lu Hanting led his men to attempt to break into the city. If it weren't for the loyalty of Deputy General Yang who was guarding the city, he probably would have broken through the palace gates.
"Waaah, Father, what's wrong? Don't scare me..."
Seeing Emperor Mingcheng's listless appearance, even the naive Seventh Prince could tell that the emperor probably didn't have many days left to live.
At this moment, the seventh prince, who was bowing his head on the dragon bed, had red and swollen eyes from crying.
"Cough cough... Huai'er, Father, Father Emperor is alright!"
Looking at his simple and honest son, Emperor Mingcheng understood his filial piety.
I don't have much time left, so I must prepare a way out for Huai'er.
"Guards, bring out the secret edict I issued earlier!"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Soon, Eunuch Huai brought up a plate, the contents of which were covered by a bright yellow cloth.
"Your Majesty, the items have been brought."
With the help of a young eunuch, the emperor struggled to his feet.
He then placed the secret edict in the hands of the seventh prince.
"Huai'er, this is a life-saving charm left to you by your father. Keep it safe!"
As my lifespan draws to a close, this is probably all I can leave to Huai'er.
Hearing the emperor's words, the seventh prince looked at him with bewildered eyes, "Father..."
"Huai'er, listen to me, don't take it out unless absolutely necessary!"
Watching the Seventh Prince's departing figure, the Emperor's sinister eyes turned to Eunuch Huai beside him.
"Eunuch Huai, I remember that a while ago a foreign country presented me with a batch of wine as tribute. Among this batch of wine, there seems to be one with a particularly special taste. Do you remember it?"
Upon hearing the emperor's words, Eunuch Huai's heart skipped a beat.
"Your Majesty, this servant recalls that there is such a wine, its name seems to be 'Beauty's Intoxication'!"
"Hehe, beauty's intoxication..."
Emperor Chenghua murmured unconsciously.
A moment later, he opened his eyes, and his gaze immediately became sharp.
"Eunuch Huai, it's a real pity that this Beauty's Drunkenness is kept in my storeroom."
"In that case, bring it out for me. I wish to bestow this wine upon Miss Liu of the Liu family!"
When Emperor Chenghua mentioned the words "bestow wine," he deliberately emphasized them.
"Do you understand?"
Hearing the emperor's words, Eunuch Huai's downturned lips curled up slightly.
"Your Majesty, this old servant will go immediately!"
Watching Eunuch Huai's figure disappear, Emperor Mingcheng sighed inwardly.
While he still has the energy, there are some potential threats he must eliminate for the new emperor.
Liu Mansion.
Liu Shuning was admiring herself in the mirror, looking beautifully dressed.
Although she was almost implicated in the matter of Prince Min some time ago, she fortunately got through it without any real danger.
Heh, the emperor probably never imagined that he had reached an agreement with the eldest princess.
If Lu Hanting knew what I had done for him, he would be deeply moved!
As for Wu Weiwei's Jade Deer Garden?
snort!
When Lu Hanting marries her, all the good things in the world will be hers, and she won't care about her things anymore!
Just as Liu Shuning was feeling proud of her masterpiece, she heard servants rushing in from outside.
"Miss, someone from the palace has arrived!"
