The person who came to report was a servant specially arranged by Liu Qingyan, who was specifically responsible for reporting on the major events that happened in the palace. After suffering several losses, Liu Qingyan also thought that after all, the Qi Palace was a little distance from the imperial palace, and some major events in the palace would have to last a long time before they could reach her ears.

If this is the case, it will delay her chance to know the latest things. Therefore, she specially arranged this servant.

What he never expected was that this was just the first time that this servant was arranged. The first news he sent back was a big thing that could sensation all over the world - the emperor's death!

The emperor's death is a big deal, not just about the palace, but about the Qi Palace. This matter involves too much and involves too broadly. If the news spreads, the whole world will be filled with excitement.

Liu Qingyan couldn't believe it for a moment, so she just chased him and asked him: "What did you... say just now? What's wrong with the emperor?"

"Reply to the princess' words," the attendant knelt on the ground, and said honestly and carefully again, "It's the emperor, the emperor... has passed away."

Liu Qingyan took a deep breath and looked at Lu Siguan beside her.

But after all, it was King Qi, and he encountered more things. Lu Siguan's reaction was not as exaggerated as hers. He just held her hand tightly and said to the attendant: "Don't show off this matter."

"Yes." The attendant was also a person with strict training. Even if Lu Siguan didn't remind him, he would not tell him about this.

"You go back." Lu Siguan waved his hand and sighed. After the emperor passed away, more things happened, and even more annoying. He originally thought about living a good life with Liu Qingyan for a while.

If the emperor died, I am afraid that he and Liu Qingyan would have to encounter some different big and small troubles.

After the servant went down, Lu Siguan led Liu Qingyan into the room, waiting outside the door, but did not follow him.

These two maids are smart. I know that if Lu Siguan led Liu Qingyan back to the room and met again after a long separation, he would definitely have to do some private things... And of course those things would not and should not be seen by the two maids like them.

Liu Qingyan followed Lu Siguan into the room and sat down at the table. The room was very quiet, with only the two of them. A little golden sunlight leaked in from the window, shining on the ground, casting a mottled shadow.

"Lu Siguan..." Liu Qingyan called him out.

"It doesn't matter," Lu Siguan reached out and rubbed her head. "The emperor's death was already as expected."

Liu Qingyan was slightly stunned, and Lu Siguan mentioned: "Did you forget? In the last period of his life, who did he always be with and what did he take?"

Finally, Liu Qingyan suddenly realized: "It's because of the drug!"

The pills that Concubine Du gave to the emperor were provided to her by Song Jingchen. It must be definitely not a good thing, it must have many bad disadvantages. It seems that Song Jingchen also said that those pills that cause hallucinations are also fatal poisons.

In this way, the emperor's death was indeed expected.

It seems that Song Jingchen is Song Jingchen, and even the imperial physicians can't solve the poisons they have given.

But when he thought about this, Liu Qingyan thought of an extremely terrifying possibility again. When she thought of that, Liu Qingyan was stunned for a moment and showed a look of fear. If that was really the case, it would be terrible...

Lu Siguan noticed her face and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something uncomfortable? Is it a child?"

"No," Liu Qingyan shook her head and looked at Lu Siguan in front of her, "I just remembered something..."

"What do you think?" Lu Siguan looked at her patiently.

Liu Qingyan frowned and looked at him nervously: "The imperial physicians in the palace are the most skilled in the world. If they are infected with any poison, they will not die within three days. Lu Siguan, have you ever seen such a powerful poison and such a useless imperial physician?" Anyway, she didn't believe it.

Lu Siguan was stunned: "So, Huaixiang, what do you mean?"

Liu Qingyan looked at him and said, "Can someone secretly design the imperial physicians not to diagnose the emperor's illness or cure the emperor?" And the person who would do this, Liu Qingyan had already had a guess in her mind.

"Who do you think it will be?" Lu Siguan asked her in a low voice.

"In the past, when you were not here," Liu Qingyan was not in a hurry to answer, but began to talk about another thing, "The emperor had already alienated the Empress because of Concubine Du's arrangements and designs. The Empress specially asked me to come over for this, saw me, and even said something to me."

Lu Siguan frowned: "I don't know what she said to you about this... what did she say to you?"

Liu Qingyan looked at him and said, "She said it was so magnificent, saying that it was for the sake of the country and the country, and that the current emperor was so addicted to beauty and ignored the government. It would probably cause dissatisfaction among the people in the future. So, she asked me to help her work together to open up a prosperous road for the prince."

Lu Siguan touched his chin: "If you want to find a helper, you are indeed the best candidate in the entire capital."

First of all, Liu Qingyan's husband, Lu Siguan, died at the hands of the emperor. She had hatred for the emperor. For the sake of hatred, she might have done such a thing and did a very good job.

On the other hand, the most important point is that Liu Qingyan is the prefect of the capital and was personally enthroned by the emperor.

When Liu Qingyan was enthroned, the emperor was still a wise ruler, knowing what kind of people could be valued and what kind of people could not be used. The emperor believed that Liu Qingyan could take on the important task of being the prefect of the capital, so he enthroned Liu Qingyan. This also shows that Liu Qingyan was indeed capable, not relying on his husband.

Later, what Liu Qingyan did indeed prove that the choice made by the queen was correct. However, before the queen completely pushed her beloved prince to the throne, something like this happened, that is, Song Jingchen forced the palace.

Liu Qingyan looked at Lu Siguan and said, "I now suspect that the emperor's death is not a simple matter, but something is related to... the Empress."

According to Liu Qingyan's guess, the queen must have learned from some different channels that the emperor had been infected with the extremely terrible poison and needed some treatment to recover, otherwise there would be only death.

So the queen thought about it and didn't know if it was the final decision she made by herself or discussed with the prince. Anyway, she concluded that she should not care about the emperor anymore, let the emperor die.

What is the identity of the queen? Even though she was excluded by Concubine Du, she was a person with a foundation and a certain status. Once Concubine Du fell, all the resources that were originally robbed by Concubine Du would return to her hands and be controlled by her.

In this way, it is possible for the queen to manipulate the imperial physicians and not cure the emperor.

Lu Siguan was slightly stunned, but he did not deny Liu Qingyan's guess.

After a moment of silence, Lu Siguan sighed, opened his arms, and hugged Liu Qingyan into his arms: "It doesn't matter. Even so, the throne was inherited by the crown prince, and it was originally the one that was inherited by the crown prince."

"I'm just worried that the queen will come to me." Liu Qingyan said in his arms.

"Look for you?" Lu Siguan stroked her back, his voice very soft.

Liu Qingyan said "um" and said, "Because the queen was standing on the same boat as me at the beginning. If she really won the throne for the prince, and I had promised her to do things for her, there were some things she would not want me to spread."

"So do you think your husband is completely useless?" Lu Siguan said with a smile.

"What?" Liu Qingyan was slightly stunned, and she had not reacted for a while. She didn't know what Lu Siguan meant.

"If you are threatened by the queen, will I not stand on your side?" Lu Siguan sighed and said patiently, "and think about it, who am I? Could it be that the dignified King of Qi can't even protect his beloved concubine? If that's the case, what's the use of me?"

Liu Qingyan finally understood what he meant and couldn't help laughing: "I don't mean that either. I'm just worried."

After a moment of pause, she said firmly: "I know, if anything happens to me, you will definitely appear by my side to help me, and you will definitely not watch something happen to me."

Lu Siguan raised her from his arms and took some distance, lowered her eyes, and looked at her with a smile: "I've learned smartly and speak very sweetly. Why, you didn't eat candy this morning, did you?"

"If you don't like to listen, I won't say it at the worst in the future." Liu Qingyan snorted.

"No, no, I'm happy to listen. I just like to hear you say this." Lu Siguan said hurriedly.

After saying that, his eyes fell on Liu Qingyan's lower abdomen, with affectionate and gentle eyes. He stretched out his hand and stroked her belly for a moment: "It's not too long before our child will be born."

Liu Qingyan also bent her eyes and smiled: "Yes, she is about to be born. I have been dreaming about him recently, dreaming that he called me mother, and his voice is soft."

"Master! Sister!" Lu Yujian's anxious voice interrupted the two of them. He came in from outside the house with a panic look on his face and said, "Do you two know that something big happened..."

"The emperor has passed away?" Liu Qingyan raised her eyebrows.
