He did not believe that this was the corpse of the Queen, especially the location of the pelvic bones. He was even more certain that this was not the Queen's corpse, but he still had to fully understand the current situation before he could tell the truth.

"What about the king? What is his attitude now?" Heather knew that the king had given orders not to let the palace people discuss this matter in the palace, and had not heard any rumors about it in the palace. It seemed that the king was going to seal off the news.

"Ever since the Queen died miserably, the King's temperament has become extremely furious overnight. However, he will appear before the court every day, but during the night, the King will come to the ice vault to accompany the Queen's corpse until daybreak. Another convenience is that the King is secretly investigating the matter, we all know that the Queen's death was definitely not an accident!"

"The king is currently in the royal study. I wish to see the king." This was not something that a few guards could easily find out.

"Yes, the king will always stay in the royal study except for the morning assembly. He rarely returns to the Palace." Zhao Chengde understood the king's thoughts. The king was afraid that he would be unable to control his emotions and vent his anger on others.

After the two of them left, Keser was led by Zhao Chang De to the royal study. Right now, the king's temper was extremely unstable, and he was unable to understand what was going on.

"Your Majesty, Dr. Keser and General Yuwen have returned. Dr. Keser is currently outside the door, and wishes to seek an audience with the king." He lowered his head, not daring to look at him directly.

"Pass …"

Helian Shan had been looking forward to the return of Dr. Kessler. As long as he came back, he would be able to help him find the place where Zana had died.

He had not rested a moment since he had returned to the palace, and he had gone straight to the queen's business.

"Old man Keser greets the king." Heather walked in slowly, leaning on a cane.

"Dr. Keser, excuse me. You came back in time. I have something to ask you." Helian Shan stood up and walked over to him. He wanted to solve those mysteries one by one.

Hei Si looked at Helian Shan, the boy who was once in high spirits. Now, his face was filled with fatigue. It could be seen how big of a blow the Queen's death was to him!

"This old man has already gone with Eunuch Zhao to meet the queen. Your highness, if you want to grieve, you cannot revive after death." Although Keser could tell that the situation was doubtful at first glance, he still kept his mouth shut.

"I'm fine, because I know that now is not the time to be sad. Only by avenging Cen Xue's death can she and her child's remains be buried in the ground to rest. I'll feel better in my heart as well, and then I'll have the face to meet them in the Underworld!" As Helian Zhang spoke, his eyes lit up with a red light. What did that represent? It represented a bloodthirsty killing intent.

He looked at the man who had grown up in the past few years. If he was the king, for a woman, he would actually … He understood the meaning of the king's words, and feared that if he avenged the queen, the king would end his own life and die with the queen.

"Right, didn't the king just say he had something to ask this old man? What is it exactly?" He didn't want to talk about it anymore, so he changed the subject.

Half a month after you left, Xue'er passed out from a pain in her lower abdomen. Later on, when the senior imperial physician of the hospital examined her pulse, he said that Cen Xue was six months pregnant, but the results were a little off from what you had said. It was just a matter of half a month, but everyone knows what that means, so I don't understand how many months Cen Xue is pregnant.

Cen Xue and the child left, and Helian Shan no longer bothered with the previous questions. However, as long as these doubts were not resolved, they would continue to wrap around Helian Shan. This mystery could not be truly solved.

On the way back, Heather also thought about this problem. From the moment the queen was first pregnant to the moment he left for the Everlasting Mountain, the fetus in her womb was very healthy and stable, there was absolutely no mistake. If there really was such a saying, then it definitely had something to do with medicine.

"May I ask your majesty, did the queen eat anything special half a month before her abdominal pain?" The Blackwood Family specialized in the use of magic potions.

Usually when the two of them were eating together, they didn't find any special food. If they really had to ask, perhaps only the palace maid Lan Qi'er, who served Cen Xue, would know of this. But since that night, Lan Qi'er hadn't appeared again?

"I'm not sure if Cen Xue has eaten anything special, but I've asked Zhao Changde to send some blood swallows over. I've asked her to drink a bowl of milk every day to calm her foetus." Helian Shan answered carefully. There was only this much.

"Blood Swallow …" "It seems that this blood swallow might have been tampered with by someone." Heather sighed helplessly, stroking her white beard as she spoke.

When Helian Lie heard this, he immediately panicked in his heart. How could someone have done something to him? This was a tribute, and as soon as it was delivered, he ordered his men to send it to the Palace.

"Does Your Majesty trust this old man? In all these years, has this old man ever lied to your highness? It is absolutely correct for this old man to take the Queen's pulse. If it happened more than half a month after this old man left, then the problem must have occurred during this period of time. " His diagnosis was never wrong.

"Letter …" "Because I trust you, I have been delaying and hoping to see you back. However, I did not expect that there would be someone as vicious and merciless as you. Damn it …" Helian Shan gritted his teeth as he spoke, his eyes filled with resentment.

He wanted to avenge Cen Xue and their child, but before he completely grasped the evidence and found Blackwood Zana's weakness, he had to endure it. No matter how painstaking it was, he had to endure it!

"There is a type of magic medicine that, if the mother takes it, the child in the womb will become several times faster than normal. In other words, this old man suspects that the queen took this medicine and caused the fetus in the womb to be rapidly nurtured, thus creating the illusion of six months. That's why the old imperial physician and the others were deceived by this illusion, and at the same time, the King's eyes were also clouded by it!" With a single sentence, Hei Lianhan revealed the biggest doubt in his heart.

It was as if thousands of needles had stabbed into his heart. Why didn't he think about these aspects before? Why was he blinded by what he saw on the surface?

He was an animal, a bastard. Cen Xue and Yu Wu were both right, he would regret it. Now he was regretting it endlessly, but it was already too late …

"Xue'er, I've solitarily caused you two to die …" Helian Shan could not bear the blow and knelt on one knee with a face full of disappointment.

Heather shook her head helplessly and sighed. She stepped forward to comfort him, "Your Majesty, this can't be blamed on you. It's because of that witch's schemes. You are unable to guard against her."

"You don't have to persuade me anymore. It seems like whatever I found in the Dancing Pavilion was most likely set up by that slut, Heimu Zana. Why would I believe her at all these points? "Why …" Helian Lie roared angrily from the bottom of his heart. He was truly, truly regretful.

He did not know what to say. Perhaps the king needed to calm down.

"Your Majesty, it would be better if you return to the Palace to rest for a while. This old man would like to go to the ruins of the Cold Palace to have a look." Heather spoke slowly.

"No problem, I'll go alone with you." How could Helian Shan sleep at this time? He hadn't had a proper rest for several days.

Every time he exhausted his physical strength to the limit, he would close his eyes and take a short rest on the Dragon Throne. However, he was unable to sleep at all because Cen Xue's death was too much of a blow to him.

Every time he recalled his dreams, he would see Cen Xue holding a baby in her arms. That was their child, the symbol and crystallization of their love. But what had he done? She had almost killed this pitiful little life of hers. Even though she had stopped him in time, she was unable to redeem herself in the end.

They walked into the ruins again. The old cold palace was no longer there. The houses had been burned down and razed to the ground. There was still a burnt smell in the air after a few days.

"Sigh …" Heather looked at the ruins of the mask, then thought about the bones in the crystal coffin. No wonder they were burnt into scattered remains.

A layer of mist covered Helian Shan's eyes. That night, he still vividly remembered that dream. She had left him, forever leaving him. Carrying her hatred towards him, Helian Lie did not wish to see him for even a moment before leaving.

He muttered Cen Xue's name, as if as long as he called her here, she would miraculously walk out of the ruins.

Heather looked around the ruins. There were traces of houses collapsing and burning everywhere. There were no clues at all …

"Your Majesty …" From afar, a familiar voice sounded. It was the voice of a man, full of vigor. Upon hearing the voice, one could tell that he was a practitioner.

Yuwen Tuo held One-Feather Dance at his side. He didn't see him in the Million Imperial Study, so the young eunuch led them over to the ruins of the Cold Palace. Sure enough, they saw the king and Doctor Keser here.

"It's good that you're back. Yu Wu is waiting for your return everyday." Helian Lie's face was calm and unmoved in the slightest. When he saw the Single Feather Dance that was carefully held by Helian Lie's side, he actually felt waves of soreness and pain in his heart.

If his Xue'er was still here, they would definitely be happier than Yuwen Tuo and Yu Wu. Unfortunately, all of this had been wiped away, turning into a pool of blood.

"Yuwen Tuo will take good care of Yu Wu. It's just a matter of the queen, does the king have any leads?" Yuwen Tuo looked at the disappointment on his face. Right now, the only thing he could do was avenge the Queen.

"I won't let Cen Xue die in vain. I must make that person pay a terrible price for this. I must make the citizens of Lou Lan eat her flesh. I must make sure she dies without a complete corpse, never to reincarnate!" When Helian Lie mentioned this point, his eyes emitted a fierce light. If he could say it, he would definitely be able to do it.
