Chapter 615 The Oppressed Twin Brothers 11
"My Lord, has the eldest princess gone to bed?"
In the Princess's room in the capital, it was already late at night when Sheng Tang returned to her bedroom. When the maid saw her come back, she quickly handed her a cup of hot tea and asked.
Sheng Tang took a sip and nodded: "Go to bed."
I fell asleep, but I still woke up in the middle of the night.
Ever since her mother contracted nightmares, she has never had a full night's sleep, and she is also exhausted both physically and mentally.
Whether it was the imperial physician in the palace or the doctors recruited from the public, they all took a lot of tranquilizers, but to no avail.
According to the director of the Imperial Hospital, this was a heart disease caused by a great shock.
But my mother has lived in the palace since she was a child and has seen many intrigues and conspiracies. How could she be frightened just by seeing Doctor Wang commit suicide by burning himself?
If it still can’t be cured, we can only seek help from God.
The master from Tomorrow Emperor Temple will come to perform a ritual for my mother, hoping to cure her mental illness.
Sheng Tang went to bed exhausted, and just as she was half asleep and half awake, she heard the noise of servants outside.
Sheng Tang knew without calling the maid in that her mother must have been awakened by another nightmare.
Put on your coat and go to the eldest princess' bedroom.
"Get out of here, get out of here."
"You traitors, I will report this to the Emperor and the Empress Dowager, and have you all beheaded in public."
Here it comes again. Even in her dreams, she still does not forget to use her power to achieve her goals.
Sheng Tang pushed the door open and saw all the maids serving beside the bed, not daring to go forward to wake up their mother.
As for my father Sheng Qingwei, he had always slept in a separate room from my mother. He slept soundly at night and had never heard any noise from my mother's side.
"Mother, wake up..."
Sheng Tang stepped forward and pushed Ning Ruli hard. Ning Ruli suddenly woke up, her eyes wide open and full of fear.
The mother dreamed again that she was beheaded and burned in fire.

"It's worthy of being the capital. It's much more prosperous than Jiangnan."
Yunlang led the horse and glanced at the shops on both sides of the street. Standing outside, he could vaguely see the furnishings inside. They were completely different from the gentle and graceful style of Jiangnan, and were more magnificent and luxurious.
"Brother, there is an inn over there." Yun Xin said, pointing to the sign of the inn in front.
"I'll go and ask if there are any rooms available." Yun Yi handed the reins to Yun Lang and went to the inn.
The inns in Beijing are larger than those in Jiangnan. Unless something special happens, there are usually rooms available.
After Yun Yi booked two rooms upstairs, the waiter was very considerate and took the initiative to help them lead the horses to the backyard.
This time, Yun Yi was going to go to the Western Regions with Yun Lang and Yun Xin. Before leaving, he promised his parents that there would be no accidents and wrote back regularly. Only then was he able to get half a year.
There was plenty of time, so after leaving Jiangnan, Yunlang said he wanted to visit the capital, so he took a detour and came here first.
As soon as I sat down in the lobby of the inn, before I could order, I saw a group of monks walking on the street outside. Those monks were protected by guards, and it was obvious that they were of extraordinary status.
"You three young masters are from far away. Master Chengming is the abbot of the Imperial Temple. I heard that the eldest princess has had nightmares since she came back from Jiangnan, so we asked Master Chengming to perform a ritual."
The inn receives all kinds of people every day, and the waiters are the most well-informed about the news.
"Princess?" Yun Lang blinked. No wonder the princess was so eager to leave Jiangnan before. It turned out to be a nightmare.
“Just these few dishes.”
Yun Yi ordered a few dishes from the menu. Because of Yun Yi's mediation, Master Yun agreed that they did not have to follow the caravan to the Western Regions. The silver and money they brought with them were enough for them to be alone, so they had no problem with food, drink and accommodation along the way.
Seeing the waiter walking away, Yun Lang approached Yun Xin and said, "The princess was so proud of herself forcing Divine Doctor Wang to burn himself to death. I never thought that she would be haunted by nightmares one day. It's really satisfying."
Yun Xin glanced at Yun Lang and reluctantly reminded him, "Second brother, be careful with your words. This is the capital."
"What happened in the capital?" Before Yun Lang could say anything, the man at the table next to him slapped him down and said angrily, "The prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people. She is the eldest princess and has the protection of the emperor and the empress dowager, but God has eyes and will not forgive her easily."
The noise was so loud that other guests dining in the lobby looked over. For a moment, the entire lobby was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
"Brother Liu, stop talking." The man at the same table pulled the man's sleeve.
But the man obviously didn't want to let it go so easily, and continued, "Why can't I say it? If you have the guts, arrest me. I just want everyone to know that Princess Ning Rulien took revenge and forced the miracle doctor who treated her to death."
"Yes, this brother is right. The princess is now haunted by nightmares every day. This is the retribution from God."
"My aunt's nephew lives in Jiangnan. He fell off a mountain and all the doctors said he would not survive. It was Doctor Wang who cured him."
"The princess forced Divine Doctor Wang to death. She turned evil into good in private matters, and caused Ningguo to lose a highly skilled medical talent in public matters. Now she is just a nightmare. I still think that the punishment from God is too light for her."
Someone in the lobby echoed.
Yun Yi raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't expect that he would see such a scene when he came to the inn to have a meal.
"Brother, will they be taken away by the government if they talk about the princess like this?" Yun Xin said timidly.
After all, in Jiangnan, if someone accidentally hurt the county magistrate's son, they would be arrested and imprisoned. Now they are openly discussing the princess...
"Do you see any constables coming to take them away?" Yun Yi pointed outside the window, and a team of constables happened to be walking past across the street.
Yun Xin was shocked and asked in confusion: "What's going on?"
Is it because the capital is more tolerant and open than the south of the Yangtze River?
Yun Yi smiled and said, "People tend to follow the crowd. If they dare to say it publicly, they must have seen people say it before in other places without being punished."
Yun Yi originally thought that the incident of 'Dr. Wang being forced to self-immolate' had only spread in the Jiangnan area, but he didn't expect it to have spread to the capital.
It seems that the communication effect is quite good.
Judging from Ning Ruli's previous arrogant and conceited appearance, no one had ever disobeyed her.
But now, even the emperor and the empress dowager have to pay attention to the impact of the spread of rumors.
Their punishment of those who said bad things about Ning Ruli seemed to confirm this point.
But without any action like now, the rumors will become more and more intense.
As long as the emperor cares about his reputation, it is impossible for him not to care about the opinions of the people.
After the abbot of the Imperial Temple performed a ritual for Ning Ruli today, if Ning Ruli is still not feeling well, she will soon be abandoned by the Emperor and the Empress Dowager.
