Chapter 432: Hidden Affair in the Deep Palace
When Yuxiu asked people to investigate, in the palace of Emperor Wu, Emperor Wu was angry and executed several palace eunuchs.
The imperial doctor, who knelt at his feet, trembled like a cold leaf in the wind.
He was transferred to see Emperor Wu after the Imperial Physician, because he had seen the medicinal properties of A Hibiscus in a folk medicine book. This toxicity occurs when the person is poisoned with extraordinary perseverance.
No one dared to expect the emperor to be willing to endure this kind of pain, so the imperial doctor thought of a way to transfer it wisely, and when he thought about it, he forgot about the poison.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Wu was vain, and he vomited a mouthful of blood directly last night, but he was weak.
He was angry and killed the Yue Guiren, and the rest of his anger was still gone, and he thought of the few minions who served the Yue Guiren if they said it? Simply ordered all of them to be disposed of.
Now, Emperor Wu is looking at this imperial doctor, and he has to wait until the beginning of spring, is he really going to die?
When Emperor Wu first ascended the throne, the treasury was empty, and he worked hard for more than ten years to make the country stronger and stronger, but he had no heirs and was still getting old. Finally, King Teng also died, the world is in his hands, he has been a bitter emperor for more than 20 years, and he has not been able to enjoy one or two, and he is going to die?
Emperor Wu only felt that the sky was unfair.
He is the Son of Heaven, but he still can't ask for an immortality? Can't do what you want?
He endured the thought of killing people and asked the imperial doctor to retreat, "My illness, if you leak a word, I will punish you nine clans!" ”
The imperial doctor couldn't walk anymore, and even crawled out of Emperor Wu's bedroom.
Kang Shun came to tell him that Mrs. Wen had visited later.
Emperor Wu let people pass it on.
Empress Dowager Wen looked at Emperor Wu with a dejected face, sighed, and slowly walked to the side of the dragon's bed, "What does the Holy Lord feel today?" ”
Emperor Wu stared at Empress Dowager Wen for a long time, "Empress Dowager Lao is worried, I feel that everything is fine." ”
"I heard that the Holy Lord asked Li Chengen to go to Chawen's house?"
"Not bad!"
"When the saint ascended the throne, he promised to protect the wealth of the Wen family." Empress Dowager Wen reminded Emperor Wu blandly.
"Over the years, the Wen family has been extremely noble. Up and down the government and the opposition, half of them are members of the Wen family, isn't this extremely rich? Emperor Wu looked at the Empress Dowager Wen and asked, after a closer look, he found that the talented Empress Wen Yuan in his memory was no longer what he was back then.
For Empress Dowager Wen, Emperor Wu has always felt that he can't see through it.
The princes born to the first emperor are naturally not only him and Li Shiji. It's just that with the favor of the concubine, the other princes in the palace died due to accidents or due to serious diseases before they reached adulthood.
His father was obsessed with sweet words with the concubine, except for Li Shiji, he couldn't remember any other sons at all. If the concubine speaks, he is afraid that he will be willing to let him kill his son with his own hands.
The harem is overturned, his mother's family background is not prosperous, and the little favor he originally received has also dissipated.
Later, his mother died of illness, and at that time he was a powerless prince who had no power and was not favored by his father, and he was almost a mermaid. After the death of his mother, he soon became ill, and even though he secretly poured the potion, he still knew that he was getting weaker and weaker.
While he was waiting to die, Empress Wen at that time reached out to save him.
At that time, Empress Wen was also standing in front of his bed, like a fairy concubine, and told him softly that she would not only save him but also help him ascend the throne, on the condition that he would protect the wealth of the Wen family.
Emperor Wu agreed. In the deep palace, he relied on obeying the instructions of the Empress Dowager Wen in everything, step by step, and sure enough, in the end, the emperor died, even if the concubine was obsessed and crying, Li Shiji was still named King Teng and rushed to Shuzhong, and he justifiably became the emperor.
After he ascended the throne, the first thing he did was to serve the Empress Dowager Wen as the Empress Dowager and seal the Wen family, which had the title of duke and real power.
"Back then, you also walked in front of me like this, saying that you would help me ascend to the throne." Emperor Wu muttered, and forgot to say "I" in a trance.
Empress Dowager Wen looked at Emperor Wu with misty eyes, obviously remembering the past.
But the year she thought of was not the year in Emperor Wu's memory.
What she thought of was that she was dedicated to entering the palace for the prosperity of the family, and ascended to the back step by step, but when she turned around, she saw the haggard figure of her beloved man.
She couldn't help but chase her eyes, and the concubine found the clue. She took the lead to support Li Shixun, dealt with Li Shiji, and drove King Cheng to the north and not to return to Beijing.
The first emperor was suspicious at the instigation of the concubine, but the Zhou family had heavy troops and could not move lightly.
Not long after, the first emperor also fell seriously ill and died, and she was still the winner in the harem.
"I'm helping you ascend to the throne, but I'm not asking you to think about anything else. All these years, you have no heirs, what a retribution. Empress Dowager Wen said coldly, and watched Emperor Wu's face turn to defeat again.
Who would have thought? The dignified emperor actually thought about the queen mother.
She couldn't help but think of that night, King Jing and his wife entered Beijing, she left Princess Jing He to speak, and Emperor Wu didn't know what went crazy and broke into Renshou Palace drunk......
When Emperor Wu heard the word retribution, he sighed, and seemed to be smiling, "You killed my father back then, and now you are coming to kill me?" ”
"The Holy One was killed by himself. Obsessed with women, superstitious about immortality, suspicious ministers ......"
"If I hadn't ordered Li Chengen to go to Chawen's house, you wouldn't have come to see me alone, would you? For so many years, I've been thinking, who is it in your heart? Now, I know. Emperor Wu's mind seemed to come back suddenly, "When he died of illness back then, the lights in your Renshou Palace were not extinguished for several nights. ”
Empress Dowager Wen heard him know who she was thinking, but she was not surprised.
"I just don't understand why you have no mercy for his children and grandchildren when you have a deep affection for him."
"He was born to another woman, so why should I be merciful? When I entered the palace, I swore to my father that I would revitalize the Wen family, and now, the Wen family is only one step away from my father's expectations. If Zhou Dingkang does not come back from the Northland, the Zhou family will still be the Chengwang Mansion of Yongding. It's a pity that their father and son are in Beijing and are still involved. Empress Dowager Wen said indifferently.
"I want Yan Yuxiu to be buried!" Emperor Wu suddenly said, looking at the Empress Dowager Wen, her expression was a little crazy, "You are the queen mother, you are the queen mother, how can there be a woman who can't get it in my life?" Yan Yuxiu, she is a goddess, she is like you back then, I want her to be buried! ”
"If you agree, I will write a will and pass on the throne to Li Chengen!" Emperor Wu looked at Empress Dowager Wen with shining eyes and said.
Empress Dowager Wen looked at Emperor Wu's expression, and she felt a little pity for a while, Yan Yuxiu, like herself?
She pondered for a moment, "Good! He said softly, "The Holy One has already been infected with erysipelas, and the Holy One has also tasted the pain when Ah Hibiscus was poisonous." Dying early is also a relief. ”
At this moment, Emperor Wu felt that he was really willing to die. At least, there's no woman in this world who can't get it, right?
Wen Yuan is already the queen mother, so let Yan Yuxiu come to her funeral.
