Chapter 282 Escape from death?
Wan Linlang's death was so sudden!
In her previous life, she fought her way up from a female doctor to the position of Consort De, but in this life, she was buried quietly in Qiang Wu.
It doesn't suit Wan Linlang's personality at all.
Xie Run didn't believe it at all!
She suddenly said, "Maybe Wan Linlang has been preparing to leave for a long time?!"
Dan Tao was startled, "Master, what do you mean by this?"
Xie Run calmly analyzed: "She is Qiang Wu who asked to come in."
In terms of the ability to survive outside the mansion, Wan Linlang is a hundred times better than Fang Yuaner.
It doesn't make sense that Wan Linlang would get into trouble first?
"After leaving the palace, she deliberately plotted against Jiang Baobao, implicating three people and leaving many traces. This doesn't fit her usual style!"
Wan Linlang harmed people because even though everyone knew she was wrong, they couldn't find any evidence.
"I originally found it strange that she was plotting against Jiang Baobao this time. Now that I think about it, was she planning to leave long ago and not afraid of being discovered at all?"
Dan Tao listened to her master's analysis in astonishment and stammered, "Master, are you saying that Concubine Wan is not dead?"
"But...but how is this possible?"
Xie Run leaned against the headboard, grabbing the quilt to cover his body, "It's really impossible, but what if..."
Dan Tao: "But what is she trying to achieve by doing this?"
"What's the point?" Xie Run remembered Wan Linlang's other skill - disguise.
Xie Run said slowly, "It's not that she's aiming for anything, but she's already reached the end of her rope. Even if she puts in a hundred times or a thousand times more effort, it would be difficult for her to take another step forward."
With Wan Linlang's ambition, how could she be satisfied with being a concubine for the rest of her life?
Unfortunately, she had an unlucky life since she entered the mansion, and was suppressed by Fang Yuaner in every way, leaving her with no chance of turning things around.
He wants to be in a high position and have the hope of climbing to the throne.
Wan Linlang must give up her current identity.
Escaping death is a good idea.
Xie Run sighed, "Of course, this is also my guess."
Dan Tao breathed a sigh of relief.
She still found it outrageous and couldn't imagine that Wan Shiqi, a concubine in the inner court, would have the courage to fake her death in front of King Jing.
Xie Run: "I want to see if Wan Linlang has already made plans. It's actually not difficult."
Dan Tao opened her eyes wide and looked at her master.
Xie Run: "If I were Wan Linlang, I would definitely take revenge and resolve the problems before I die."
"Jiang Baobao in the mansion, Fang Yuaner outside the mansion... Go and ask around and see if Wan Linlang dragged Fang Yuaner into the water before he died."
According to Xie Run's guess, if Wan Linlang really planned to fake his death, he would definitely drag Fang Yuaner with him before he died. Even if he couldn't, he would still trick her and make sure she would never be able to turn over!
Dan Tao was also smart and immediately responded: "Master, you said that Concubine Fang suddenly ran to the front yard and knelt down today. Is it because of this?"
"You go and ask first."
Dan Tao nodded, her face becoming more serious: "I will go right away!"
For lunch, Xie Run drank two mouthfuls of meat porridge and ate a little cake, then asked someone to distribute the food.
Unexpectedly, King Jing arrived not long after they finished eating.
Unlike his usual travel-weary look, King Jing wore a black robe with dark gold python patterns, which made his face look handsome, masculine and elegant.
Xie Run bowed slowly, "I greet the prince."
King Jing took two steps forward and raised his hand to help Xie Run up. "Are you feeling better?"
Xie Run said softly, "I feel better now, but I'm still a little weak."
Xie Run was also aware of the situation in the mansion, and she didn't want to bother with those trivial matters anymore.
King Jing nodded slightly, "That's good."
"I heard that you woke up, so I came to see you."
Xie Run thought of Fang Yuaner kneeling in the front yard.
If King Jing comes to her place, then Fang Yuan'er will be kneeling in the front yard for nothing?
King Jing helped Xie Run sit on the couch and asked casually, "What did you have for lunch today?"
Xie Run: "My illness has just gotten better. The imperial physician said I shouldn't eat anything too greasy, so I drank some meat porridge and ate some cakes."
"If there's anything you want to eat, feel free to ask the kitchen to make it. If that doesn't work, I'll ask the people in the front yard to make it for you."
Everyone knows that the best chefs in the palace are in the front yard, and they are responsible for serving meals to the prince and the young masters and princesses in the front yard.
It’s just that the Prince of the Front Yard never mentioned these things. He always attached great importance to rules and kept the people and things in the front and back yards separate.
Xie Run was only slightly surprised, then he accepted it with a smile, "Then I will respectfully obey your command."
"I've heard that the chef in the front yard is an old man from the palace. He's best at Dongpo pork and wine-lees goose. A few years ago, the old Duke held a banquet and even came to our house to borrow someone."
"My illness has turned out to be a blessing in disguise."
King Jing raised his hand and poked her between the eyebrows. "You're so talkative now, it shows you've really gotten better."
During this period, King Jing also visited Xie Run several times.
When she came, she was either having a fever, vomiting and diarrhea, and feeling very tired, or she was sleeping.
His face was pale and weak, as if he was only half alive.
When King Jing saw this, he felt pity for her and specifically told the people in the palace not to come to Chunshan Courtyard to disturb Xie Run.
Now that I see she is much better, I feel a little more relaxed.
Xie Run held King Jing's arm and slowly leaned on his shoulder, with his black hair loose, looking exceptionally gentle and indifferent.
Xie Run: "I've been ill for a while now. My mind hasn't been clear and my days have been a blur."
"Now that I'm awake, looking back at those days, I feel like I just had a nightmare."
"The prince asked me and Concubine Sun to manage the household, but the eldest son, Concubine Sun, and Concubine Jiang all got into trouble. After we finally figured it out, we encountered Prince An colluding with the Imperial City Guards and trying to break into our palace."
King Jing raised his hand to embrace Xie Run and said in a deep voice: "Someone is scheming and calculating every step of the way. It's not your fault."
"Even if the princess is in good health and she is in charge of the household, these things are unavoidable."
Listening to King Jing's tone, Xie Run always felt that he seemed to see everything clearly, and his attitude was always unpredictable.
It was all because Fang Yuaner and Wan Linlang fought too fiercely and brought out all their skills.
Now it’s good. The more King Jing knows, the more worried he becomes.
In the past, Xie Run could still guess what he was thinking, but now he doesn’t even dare to ask some questions.
Xie Run leaned on Prince Jing's shoulder, his voice so soft it almost sounded like a whisper. "The night Prince An plotted rebellion, the imperial physician said the princess's unborn baby was definitely not safe, and there was a risk of both mother and child dying."
"The servants in the palace have also brought news that the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard is coming with his men to search our palace... I have rarely encountered such a major incident in my life, but now, I have encountered two at once."
"I was really scared at the time. I just wanted to know when the prince would come back and help me take the burden off my shoulders."
Xie Run tilted his head and looked at Prince Jing, smiling and saying, "I have something to say, Your Highness, please don't be angry."
