Reborn to be the Queen

Moreover, it was a bit painful.

This pain was not the pain of being stabbed by needles. It was a type of pain that was hard to describe, a piercing pain that came from time to time. Sometimes, it was so painful that one would not be able to endure it.

How could I have foolishly believed such a woman with a heart like a snake and a scorpion for so long, treating her as a good sister that could dig out her heart and dig out her lungs?

Xiao Ruyue looked at Lu Yi and said: "Go and see if General Shen is back. If he is back, tell him to come see me immediately."

"Yes."

"Wait."

When Lu Yi left, she heard a call from behind her. She turned around to look at Xiao Ruyue and asked, "Empress, what's wrong?"

"Go to the royal study and ask your highness to come here first. "Just say it, I have something that I would like to request of you."

"Yes."

Lu Yi replied and left.

After only a quarter of an hour, Yuwen He arrived.

"What's going on?" Lu Yi hurriedly said. "You don't look too good. Is it because you're not feeling well?" Yuwen He entered and sat beside Xiao Ruyue.

He looked a little flustered, but it was hard to tell if he was looking closely. Could it be that he was feeling anxious after hearing what Lu Yi said?

Xiao Ruyue showed him her hand, "It does feel a little uncomfortable." So she told about her itchy and painful hands after getting pricked by the needle, and did not conceal Yao Ziyan's weird actions.

Yuwen He's face was a little ugly.

As they were speaking, the imperial physician arrived. The one who had come was the elder of the Taiyuan Hospital, Imperial Physician Li, who had the most brilliant medical skills and experience in the palace.

"What's wrong with Min Er?" Yuwen He was asking about the imperial physicians who took Xiao Ruyue's pulse.

The imperial physician shook his head, his face full of guilt. "This humble subject is retarded. I can't see anything wrong with the empress's body." This was an old imperial physician who had lived in the palace for more than a decade. He couldn't tell the slightest clue.

"Then take a look at this embroidered handkerchief." Xiao Ruyue pointed to the embroidered cloth that belonged to Yao Ziyan.

In the end, she could only frown and shake her head towards Yuwen He, "On this handkerchief, there is only the fragrance of a few peach blossoms. This is the smell of a common rouge powder, it's nothing unusual."

Xiao Ruyue then handed the embroidery needle over to him. The Imperial Physician was stunned for a moment, but she also examined it.

From the looks of it, Yao Ziyan had made her move.

However, with Yao Ziyan's vanity, how could she act against an Empress like her for no reason? Was it related to her going to the glazed pavilion the moment she entered the palace? Could it be that the one who truly wanted to take action against her, was Ye Haitang who was in glazed pavilion?

When she thought about the rumors in the palace and the discussion that she had with Yuwen He last night, she understood.

If it was Ye Haitang, then she would not let her die immediately.

The sudden death of the Queen was a huge matter. If anything happened to the Queen, all the people related to her would be investigated, and Yao Ziyan was no exception.

Therefore, Ye Haitang would not take the risk of sacrificing everyone to take her life. What she wanted was most likely to teach her a lesson.

She must have administered some strange poison. Not only did it torture her, it didn't cause her to lose her life, and she couldn't find out what it was.

"Let Imperial Physician Li return." Xiao Ruyue was saying this to Yuwen He.

Yuwen He looked at her, as if he understood her meaning, "Go down, there's no need to wait on me here."

With that, he turned and gave Fang Weiyong a look, and Fang Weiyong led Imperial Physician Li out.

At the moment, Lu Yi hadn't come back yet. Since she didn't return, it proved that Shen Liang still hadn't returned.

Xiao Ruyue glanced at Yin Lin, "You should also go down first."

Yin Lin then went out.

After Fang Weiyong sent the Imperial Physician Li out, he did not enter again. After sending everyone else away, only Xiao Ruyue and Yuwen He remained in the room.

"Min Er has something to say?" Yuwen He sat down beside Xiao Ruyue and held her hand with an eager expression.

Xiao Ruyue raised her eyes to look at her, but her gaze made her heart tensed up, and she looked away, no longer looking at her.

He said in a low voice: "The rumors in the palace have already spread like wildfire, so glazed pavilion should be driven mad by now. This attack today, could possibly be the doing of the person from glazed pavilion who passed through the hands of the Wei Wangfei. As for the relationship between the Wei Wangfei and that person, there's still the Overseer to investigate it. "

"That's not important. What about your hand?" Yuwen He tightly gripped both of her hands, as though his heart was tied to her body, and his tone was filled with eagerness.

Xiao Ruyue felt her right hand becoming more and more itchy and numb, from the belly of her index finger to her five fingers.

The pain came in waves, spreading from her fingers to her palm. She tried to pull her hand away, but it was useless. She gave up.

"Your Majesty, my hands are obviously in pain and itchy, but even the imperial physician can't tell what's wrong with them. Do you think they'll be crippled just because of this?" Xiao Ruyue spoke very easily.

"Yeah, it might not have been done by Wei Wangfei, it might not have been done by him either. Everything is just my guess, and there's no evidence at all. "I don't know why I did it either." Xiao Ruyue's answer was irrelevant, and the next few words were spoken with a stutter that didn't seem right.

Yuwen He's face darkened, and said: "No matter what the reason is, we will find it. We will definitely not let anything happen to you!"

After receiving such a promise, Xiao Ruyue smiled lightly: "Alright."

Her smile was like a flower, tender and beautiful without equal.

Yuwen He was stunned by his smile. After a long while, he finally regained his senses and touched his lips with his own. It was unknown what he was mumbling about. He then went straight out, and spoke with Fang Weiyong at the door, and Fang Weiyong disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The news of the Queen's body being unwell spread throughout the imperial harem the moment Imperial Physician Li returned to the Taiyuan Hospital.

When Ye Haitang, who was in glazed pavilion heard this news, she was extremely happy.

She muttered to herself, "Right now her hands are numb and her whole arm won't hold up until nightfall. If His Majesty continued to invite her to stay at the Phoenix Palace and continue to have intimate relations with her, she wouldn't be able to move even half her body tomorrow. hmph!

Ya Nuo, who was at the side, did not hear it clearly, but she heard her cold snort very clearly.

After a while, she saw Ye Haitang gritting her teeth and scolding, "Hmph, fox spirit, I told you to confuse the men that I have my eyes on. You deserve to be tidied up! What East Mausoleum, I can't even see a fox that confuses men! The better the king is for you, the more intimate he is with you, the more painful it will be for you! I want to see what you can do! "

During dinner, Yuwen He didn't have any appetite at all, especially when he didn't know about Xiao Ruyue's condition.

On the other hand, Xiao Ruyue was clearly not worried about her own life, and was even hungry and suffering from the pain of not knowing that she was a disabled person whose right hand could not be used.

Yuwen He fed her with the food, he was really feeding her! Since they did not call Yin Lin and the others out for dinner today, Fang Weiyong, Yin Lin and all the servants in the Phoenix Palace were dumbfounded.

With someone feeding him, Xiao Ruyue was very easy-going and did not care if the other party was really the emperor or not. He ate extremely happily, ate one bowl, ate another half a bowl of soup, and even drank half a bowl of soup before he was full.

Xiao Ruyue's entire right hand was numb, but when she saw Lu Yi, she heaved a sigh of relief.

Lu Yi returned, as did Shen Liang. That meant that she had come as well.

As expected, after Lu Yi entered, Shen Liang followed behind her. Soon, a lady dressed in plain clothes walked in.

The young girl wore a white turtleneck shirt with half of her arms covering her head. She wore a pleated skirt that covered her waist, making her look very tranquil. Her temperament was like an ethereal orchid, not showing any sign of cowardice in front of the emperor.

Although it was already late spring, the sunset still felt chilly. She was wearing so little clothes, so she was slightly thinner.

She followed behind Lu Yi and Shen Liang and bowed towards Yuwen He, then walked towards Xiao Ruyue.

"Hand." She said to Xiao Ruyue.

Xiao Ruyue then extended his hand out, the young girl grabbed her hand and carefully checked her pulse, and then suddenly, she turned and looked at Yuwen He: "Did you touch her?" His tone was unpleasant, and his eyes were cold.

Yuwen He was startled, and so was Xiao Ruyue.

Just as he said that, the guards outside were about to rush in, but they only saw Yuwen He shouting, "Wait."

Fang Weiyong's face was resentful, and retreated.

Yuwen He looked at the young girl and asked, "How do you know that we've touched her? What's so special about Min Er's hand? "

"Did you touch her?" The young lady seemed to not have heard Yuwen He's words, and repeated herself.

Xiao Ruyue and Yuwen He looked at each other and nodded at the same time.

"This won't do. From now on, you are not allowed to touch her for thirty-two hours. Otherwise, if her poison cannot be dispelled, she won't be able to move even half her body. From now on, she is useless." The girl said in a serious tone.

Thus, when the young woman's words came out, everyone present was stunned.
