Chapter 171 Visiting Yingluo
The emperor was furious, his voice full of majesty and urgency, "Li Yu, go find Doctor Ye's master! You must find him within three days."
"Ye Tianshi, I hand over the entire Imperial Hospital to you. Find a way to cure the Queen as soon as possible!" The emperor paced back and forth anxiously, his face full of worry.
He knew that the queen's condition was not optimistic, and he had to do everything he could to save the queen's life.
On the other side, Wei Yingluo had already arrived at the Xinzheku.
This was her second time coming to this place, but her mood was completely different from before.
This time, she was thinking about Mingyu, Zhang Jianyi, Qingyun, Xiao Quanzi and others, worried about whether they could protect Changchun Palace, but she also wanted to give them a chance to grow.
So Wei Yingluo gritted her teeth, resisting the urge to ask them to protect Changchun Palace, hugged the bag in her arms, and hurriedly left through the back door.
Entering Yongxiang from Changchun Palace feels like stepping from warm spring into cold winter in an instant.
Although it was still a hot summer day outside, a biting cool breeze blew through the alley.
Two towering gray walls, like gray fences in a prison, firmly trap the criminals in this bleak place.
After Wei Yingluo was brought to the Xinzheku, she was greeted by a nanny in gray clothes, whose surname was Liu.
She looked Wei Yingluo up and down indifferently, and said in a voice as cold and desolate as the Eternal Alley: "You used to be the head maid of the Queen. No matter where you went, others would respect you."
Then he smiled coldly, "But now that you have entered the Xinzheku, you must forget your past identity. Here, you are just a sinner who has committed crimes, and you have to do all the dirty work."
Wei Yingluo nodded obediently and replied, "Yes."
Madam Liu continued, "Everyone in the Xinzheku has their own division of labor, and they are mainly responsible for the hard work in the palace. You must do those things that others are unwilling to do.
Every day, I have to get up at the crowing of the cock and clean the palace roads; at the hour of the ox, I have to weed the three palaces; and late at night, I have to take on some tedious tasks in each palace. Let me think about it, your words... "
She led Wei Yingluo into a room, pointed at the pile of toilets in the corner, and said, "Let's clean these toilets first."
Wei Yingluo resisted the urge to vomit and responded, "...Yes."
Although she had cleaned these toilets before, she still felt very embarrassed after years of a pampered life.
She sighed inwardly, feeling that she had really dug a big hole for herself.
Wei Yingluo sat on the stool, looking at the moon outside the window, and used the previous method to brush her face, which turned out to be quite good.
After a day of hard work, she can finally take a break at night.
Next to the well, she put the steamed buns aside, then soaked the handkerchief wrapped in the buns in the bucket. After it was thoroughly wet, she began to wipe her cheeks, neck and arms with the handkerchief.
Her hand slowly touched her belt, and just as she was about to unbutton her clothes and wipe her body, suddenly a hand reached out from behind and landed on her shoulder.
Wei Yingluo was startled and tried to break free from the other person's hand, but she heard a familiar voice: "Yingluo, it's me."
She was stunned, turned around and asked, "Master, why are you here?"
Fu Heng's face was vaguely visible in the moonlight. He was still as handsome as an immortal who had descended to earth, but it also made Wei Yingluo look even more embarrassed.
Even though they were worlds apart now, he still looked at her with the same care and love he had before.
"Come with me." Fu Heng held Wei Yingluo's hand tightly and pulled her up from the ground.
His eyes were firm and passionate, with unquestionable determination, "Let's go to the Yangxin Palace to see the emperor and ask him to grant us the marriage immediately!"
Fu Heng walked forward after he finished speaking, but after only two steps, he suddenly stopped because Wei Yingluo had already broken free from his hand and was backing away, shaking her head desperately.
"I won't go." Wei Yingluo's voice trembled, tears welled up in her eyes, "The Queen is still in a coma, how can I leave her and marry you at this time?"
There was a hint of loss and helplessness in Fu Heng's eyes, but more of it was worry.
He looked at Wei Yingluo seriously, trying to find the answer in her eyes.
"Yingluo, is there really no way you can save your sister?" Fu Heng's voice was low and hoarse, as if he was suppressing endless pain.
Wei Yingluo bit her lip gently, hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed, "I...I, really can't lie to you."
Fu Heng knew Wei Yingluo too well. If something really happened to her sister, she would never run to the Xinzheku, but would stay with her closely.
Fu Heng looked at her steadily, with a complex emotion in his heart. He knew that Wei Yingluo was very smart and she must have her own plan.
The two were silent for a while.
"Yingluo, you must have your own plans, right?" Fu Heng spoke slowly, his tone revealing understanding and support.
Wei Yingluo nodded slightly, a hint of gratitude flashing in her eyes.
"I won't force you, but you must protect yourself. No matter what happens, remember that I'm here waiting for you." Fu Heng gently stroked Wei Yingluo's cheek, his eyes full of affection.
