Chapter 287 Rong Mo is here
If Emperor Jing Zhao had known earlier that Qin Ruo had such strength and such powerful weapons in her hands, he would never have thought of using the imperial power to break off relations with her.
This time he really shot himself in the foot.
If Qin Ruo broke with Da Sheng in anger and defected to another country, Da Sheng's hundreds of years of foundation would probably be destroyed.
However, as someone in a high position for too long, he could not bring himself to apologize to a commoner girl.
Aren’t the Imperial Sister and the Ninth Brother the best friends?
Emperor Jing Zhao could only place his hopes on them. His eyes moved back and forth between Old Madam Xie and Si Heng, with a hint of pleading in them.
Old Madam Xie seemed not to have seen it. She was using a handkerchief to wipe the blood off Qin Tiaotiao's face with a gentle expression.
Si Heng lowered his eyebrows, and no one knew what he was thinking. He was completely unable to receive any hints from Emperor Jing Zhao's eyes.
Emperor Jing Zhao suddenly felt helpless, as if he was deserted by everyone and isolated without any help.
At this moment, a painful groan suddenly came from the female family member, and Lin Wanning held her abdomen with a pale face.
I had such a big fright today that I had a miscarriage and now I’m having severe abdominal pain.
"Ning'er, Ning'er, don't scare your mother. Imperial physician, where is the imperial physician? Is there an imperial physician here?" Mrs. Lin was so frightened that she subconsciously started looking for the imperial physician.
Lin Wanning's father, Uncle Zhongyuan, and several of his sons helped Lin Wanning to sit on a chair nearby, and they were at a loss for what to do.
Seeing his wife in pain, Lu Jingchen's hands and feet began to tremble uncontrollably.
Qin Ruo walked over quickly and took Lin Wanning's pulse with one hand. Then she quickly took out a pill from her body and stuffed it into Lin Wanning's mouth. She also took out spiritual spring water from the bottle she carried with her and asked Lin Wanning to take it.
Mrs. Lin, who was standing nearby, felt relieved immediately. Of course, she trusted Qin Ruo's medical skills.
It's just that I was too flustered just now and forgot for a moment that Qin Ruo knew medicine.
In less than a cup of tea, Lin Wanning's expression had gradually eased and her face regained its color.
"Don't worry too much, the fetus in your belly is safe. Take this bottle of medicine. Take one pill each morning and evening when you go back." Qin Ruo held Lin Wanning's hand and whispered to her.
Lin Wanning instantly felt the warmth from Qin Ruo's palm spread throughout her limbs, and a warmth arose all over her body.
The discomfort just now has quietly disappeared.
"Thank you, Princess Ning'an, for your help..." Mrs. Lin had tears in her eyes and bowed deeply to Qin Ruo.
"Just call me A Ruo, you're welcome." Qin Ruo smiled and personally helped Mrs. Lin up.
Ever since Madam Lin and Lin Wanning came to express their gratitude, Madam Lin would send servants to the Princess's Mansion every now and then to deliver some cakes or fun little things to Qin Ruo.
Privately, the Lin family has a good relationship with Qin Ruo.
"Thank you, Princess Ning'an." Lu Jingchen lifted his clothes, bent his knees and bowed deeply to Qin Ruo.
Today's bow is not only to thank her for saving his wife and children's lives, but also to formally say goodbye to the person who once moved him.
"Mr. Lu, please stand up. You're welcome. Wan Ning is the first friend I made since I came to Beijing. It's just a small favor." Qin Ruo avoided Lu Jingchen's greeting, maintaining her usual politeness and aloofness on her face.
The ladies and daughters on the female side were extremely envious when they saw the interaction between Qin Ruo and the Lin family.
At that time, I thought Qin Ruo was arrogant and didn't know his place.
Looking back now, I realize that I was just short-sighted.
Qin Ruo said a few more words to Mrs. Lin before returning to where Mrs. Xie was sitting.
When he passed by Shangguan Mingyu, he saw the bloodstains on her arm where her clothes were torn by the sword, and threw a bottle of hemostatic medicine to her.
"Thank you, Princess Changqing, for speaking up for me in the palace just now. I have long heard of your great name. Before you go into battle, you must take care of yourself first. Take this hemostatic powder."
"Thank you, Miss Qin...Ms. Qin." Shangguan Mingyu held the porcelain bottle in her hand with a confused look on her face. She stuttered for a moment, and little stars appeared in her eyes.
She often goes to the battlefield, so this minor injury on her arm is nothing but a daily occurrence for her. The key point is that Qin Ruo is too much to her liking!
She also wanted to touch that powerful weapon.
But she was not familiar with Qin Ruo and was too embarrassed to speak. Now she could only hold the porcelain bottle and smile foolishly.
The mother and son of Concubine Zhao, who had launched the coup in the palace, had been dragged away by the guards. Even the Crown Prince of Xiyue, whose life or death was unknown, had been taken away and imprisoned by the Seventh Prince.
The dead guards and concubines were also carried out by eunuchs and palace servants.
In the hall, there were bloodstains on the ground and messy tables and chairs, which reminded people of what had just happened.
It seemed that the palace coup was just a dream for everyone.
The Sixth Prince's party members knelt on the ground and trembled. Thinking of Emperor Jing Zhao's methods, they wished they could faint.
Emperor Jing Zhao was in a state of despair, as if he was trapped in a deserted place. He neither asked Deputy General Qian to stand up nor made any subsequent arrangements.
The Seventh Prince had no choice but to ask Deputy General Qian to stand up first, and then he bowed to the envoys from various countries present.
"Everyone, I apologize for the poor hospitality today. Dasheng needs to deal with internal affairs next, so I will not keep you here. You can leave the palace on your own."
Upon hearing that they could leave, envoys from various countries came to bid farewell to Qin Ruo and prepared to leave the palace.
At the gate of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, a group of people slowly approached.
"It seems that we are late. Rong Mo/Meng Lingxiu greets His Majesty and wishes His Majesty a long life and countless generations." Rong Mo and Meng Lingxiu bowed slightly towards Emperor Jing Zhao on the stage.
There was no surprise at all at the chaos in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
"Lord Rong Mo, the patriarch of the Rong family? Master Meng?" The envoys from various countries who were about to leave were overjoyed and stopped in their tracks.
Seeing Rong Mo, who was wearing a green robe and was as gentle as jade and had an extraordinary temperament, and Master Meng, who was wearing a purple robe and was suave, standing in the middle of the hall, envoys from various countries came forward to pay their respects.
"Meet Patriarch Rong, meet Master Meng."
Before the diplomatic mission to Dasheng, there were rumors that members of the Rong family would also attend Emperor Jingzhao's birthday, so more people came to celebrate this year than in previous years.
It's all for the opportunity to make friends with the Rong family.
The Rong family is famous throughout the world. It is said that they are good at making mechanisms, refining various kinds of elixirs, and can predict the future, and have superb martial arts.
In short, it is rumored that this is an omnipotent mysterious family. Some people even speculate that the Rong family might be aliens.
But until the palace banquet ended, no one from the Rong family showed up. Now seeing Rong Mo suddenly appear, even Master Meng came, it was really a pleasant surprise.
"There's no need to be so polite. Today is His Majesty Dasheng's birthday and we are just guests." Rong Mo's face was gentle and he raised his hand to ask everyone to stand up.
"Patriarch Rong, Master Meng, thank you for your honor. I will have someone prepare some wine. Please move to the Yangxin Palace..."
The surprise came too suddenly. Emperor Jing Zhao stood up suddenly and his face instantly regained its spirit.
No matter how powerful Qin Ruo is, can she be more powerful than the Rong family?
As long as there is the support of the Rong family, Dasheng can still stand firm. What does Qin Ruo matter?
