No, I was just a concubine, how did I become the queen?

Chapter 487 Dissipated Dragon Qi

Hongyun gave each of the two children a slap on the face: "Talk slowly!"

In the palace, no one can control their mouths.

If the emperor accepts them into the palace to study, they must be grateful and not show the slightest disrespect.

Hongli and Hongzhou touched their heads and looked at Honghui with tears in their eyes.

Honghui didn't know what he was thinking. He didn't notice the gazes of his two lively brothers and mechanically put the food into his mouth.

He didn't know what had happened, but the way Huang Mafa looked at him today made him very uncomfortable.

As far as he could remember, he and his brothers would go to the palace every year, and whether it was for a banquet or a performance, they would have brief contact with the Emperor Mafa.

In the past, Huang Mafa didn't care about his grandchildren. It was the kind of affection that he would never remember unless others mentioned it.

After all, he is very busy and has many things to do, so it is normal that he does not pay attention to his grandchildren.

But in the occasional contact, there was at least some kindness towards his grandchildren in Huang Mafa's eyes.

But even though he paid a lot of attention to her today, there wasn't a trace of kindness in his eyes.

Honghui couldn't understand why he didn't have anything that an emperor would covet.

But he understood the greed in that look.

When they went to bed at night, Hongyun nudged him with his shoulder: "Brother, what are you thinking about?"

"It's nothing, go to sleep," Honghui couldn't explain how he felt today, so he could only reassure his brother.

However, in the following days, he began to protect his younger brothers silently.

Lin Mingyan was also worried in the mansion, but because she guessed what Emperor Kangxi was thinking, she did not lose her composure.

She kept everything in the mansion under her control and checked everything she bought at least three times.

Sure enough, all the secrets behind the scenes came to light.

"Drag them away," Lin Mingyan closed her eyes as she looked at the two little maids who were forced to kneel in front of her.

The two of them were gagged, their hands and feet tied, and they were in tears as they were dragged away. They looked so pitiful, but Lin Mingyan didn't even spare them a glance.

It’s not that she is cruel, but if she is kind to others at this time, the ones who will die will be the ones she cares about.

Others don’t know that Emperor Kangxi wants his grandson’s body. They only know that the crown prince has been deposed, and now the fourth prince has the greatest hope of taking the throne.

The fact that Emperor Kangxi treated Honghui with various preferential treatments in the palace further confirmed this statement.

Everyone's eyes were sharp, and they were envious, jealous and hateful.

There are those who know the current situation and realize that they have no ability and will definitely not be able to win by fighting.

For example, the Fifth Master, the Seventh Master and others, after struggling and feeling depressed, began to build relationships with the Fourth Master.

Unfortunately, the Fourth Master is not at home at the moment, so he can only send gifts to express his gratitude.

But there are also those who are too ambitious and unwilling to accept the result. They want to take advantage of the Fourth Master's absence to do some cunning tricks and make him fall flat on his face.

Among them, Prince Zhi and the Eighth Master were the most prominent, and the Third Master also got involved from time to time, and was caught by Lin Mingyan several times.

The Prince of Zhi was still fighting in the front, and he was too anxious to do anything else, but the little tricks of the counselors around him were very powerful.

This time, the two little maids had already hidden the prince's formal dress in the front yard. Fortunately, the orange cat was there.

Tempted by a handful of dried fish, it scanned the entire house and found it in no time.

Then he ate the dress in one gulp and burped: "Hurry~~ Hmm, a little dragon energy, just right to satisfy my tooth."

Lin Mingyan's eyes flashed and she asked, "Sir, what do you want the dragon energy for?"

She remembered that it seemed to have said that the previous system was also for dragon energy.

As the Son of Heaven, if he loses his dragon energy, even his life span will be shortened.

For example, Emperor Kangxi reigned for more than sixty years and lived to be nearly seventy years old.

Now that I’m in my early fifties, my health is failing. Isn’t it all because of Yi and the system?

Then this orange cat also needs dragon energy. Will it be harmful to the Fourth Master and the children?

"What else can I do? Of course, I can improve my cultivation level by eating it~" The orange cat stretched and muttered while yawning.

"But this Dragon God is different from those parasites. I only absorb what dissipates, but I won't go against the laws of nature and steal from others."

This prince's formal dress belongs to the deposed prince. He also had dragon energy, but now that he has been deposed, all of it has dissipated.

Now, Lin Mingyan finally understood why it said that its injuries would be healed after the Fourth Master ascended the throne.

It's obvious that he is just waiting to absorb the dragon energy emitted by Emperor Kangxi.

Lin Mingyan guarded the situation closely, and finally the Fourth Master returned to Beijing.

After receiving the news, she went to the door and waited until the carriage slowly stopped and the azure blue curtain was lifted.

I met the person I had been thinking about.

The Fourth Master's illness has not yet fully recovered. His face is sallow, his cheeks are sunken, and he has become so thin that he looks unrecognizable!

Lin Mingyan rushed over to help him get off the carriage, only then she realized that he was so light.

He is over 1.8 meters tall. Even though he is thin, he has a thin layer of muscle on his body, so he still has some weight.

But now Lin Mingyan even felt that she could pick the person up if she tried harder.

"Master..." She opened her mouth to ask, but suddenly she was choked with sobs and couldn't speak.

The two of them had been through thick and thin together, and she had foreseen that the illness might be serious, but she had never imagined it would be this severe.

This was because she had already prepared the right medicine in advance, otherwise it would have cost him half his life.

The Fourth Master had been tortured by the epidemic for so long and had endured it stubbornly, but he was heartbroken by Lin Mingyan's sob.

"Don't be afraid, the illness is almost healed, just take some rest," he comforted her.

In fact, he knew in his heart that this epidemic had drained all his resources, and that resting up would indeed help him feel better.

But he probably doesn't have time to raise it.

"Yes, it will be fine," Lin Mingyan turned her head, wiped away her tears, and forced a smile.

Only after helping the man onto the sedan chair did he breathe a sigh of relief.

The Fourth Master returned home to learn about the latest situation and immediately went to the palace with the prescription. Lin Mingyan, worried about the situation, followed him.

They went to Yonghe Palace first. Concubine De came out in a hurry and grabbed his hand and shook it: "Fourth Brother, did you bring the prescription? Fourteenth Brother is almost unable to bear it!"

The Fourth Master's eyes darkened, and he took out the prescription from his pocket with trembling hands, and said in a hoarse voice: "I brought it."

Defei didn't even look at the hand she received, and hurriedly sent the quick-talking eunuch to deliver it to Fourteenth.

Lin Mingyan was afraid that the Fourth Master would be tired from standing, so she didn't bother waiting for Concubine De to tell him to sit down, and helped him sit down in the armchair.

The Fourth Master tried hard to suppress the itch in his throat, but in the end he couldn't help it and coughed a few times.

The violent coughing sound brought Concubine De back to her senses.

She seemed to have just seen her son and exclaimed, "Fourth son, how did you become so sick?"

"Is Fourteen even sicker?!"
