59. Chapter 59
Concubine Yan and the second princess were seriously injured, and the full moon ceremony and canonization ceremony had to be postponed. And at this moment, Qin Tianguan actually wrote a book, calling the second princess's destiny as Wuxing Chongyue. There are gradually a lot of rumors among the people, and the rumors are like Zhizi's suspicious neighbors, if there is a trace of vent, it is to attribute any natural and man-made disasters to this.
Ji Xuanyuan's face was gloomy, looking at the mountains of impeachment recitals in front of him, and swept them to the ground fiercely.
"Okay, very good, I actually said that my daughter is Wuxing Chongyue, and she has overcome her biological mother and adoptive mother, and now she wants to defeat the Queen Mother and the Queen!" Ji Xuanyuan didn't laugh angrily, these courtiers really tried their best to take my daughter's life, did they really think that I was blind?
Xu Mingchang hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, this must be done by someone, the emperor must not be angry." ”
"I'm not confused. Go check, check for me, who is it? ”
Xu Mingchang hurriedly went down and ordered someone to do something.
Ji Xuanyuan frowned and said, "Gao Heng, what did you find?" ”
Gao Heng knelt in front of Ji Xuanyuan, "Back to the emperor, some people say that since more than two months ago, Prime Minister Zuo has often been in and out of Qin Tianguan in private. ”
Qin Tianguan is a place, a place to observe the heavens, check geography, and even many times is used to dominate the direction of public opinion.
Zuo Xiang was very bold, and dared to secretly conspire with Qin Tianguan to interfere in the affairs of the royal family.
Ji Xuanyuan waved his hand, and Gao Heng retreated.
An Sui stepped forward lightly and picked up the pieces scattered on the ground one by one, and there were also porcelain cup fragments that fell on the ground, which gently cut An Sui's hand. An Sui just sorted out the chapter and put it back on Ji Xuanyuan's bookcase.
The cold air around Ji Xuanyuan's body suddenly stagnated, his condensed face eased, and he reached out and grabbed An Sui's hand, "Why don't you say it hurts when you're injured, who taught you to endure it like this, and you won't show it on your face." ”
If his concubine is a little painful and uncomfortable in front of him, he will have to make a big show of the imperial doctor and pretend to be weak in front of himself, this trick, Ji Xuanyuan has seen too much, although he doesn't like it, he is also used to it.
An withdrew his hand slightly, "It's just a small injury." Does the emperor still read these recitals? ”
"If you don't look at it, it's all the same."
"Has the emperor made a decision in his heart?"
"What, you have something to say?"
An Sui shook his head, "Weichen has nothing to say. ”
Ji Xuanyuan squinted his eyes, "How did I hear that you and Ren Qiwan seem to be investigating this matter in private." ”
"Weichen is just a little confused, but he still wants to be able to gain."
"Tell me about it. I'm curious, what did you find? ”
An Sui said softly, "In the main hall of Yongzhi Palace, someone has moved the hands and feet of lightning rods and girders. ”
"Go on."
"After the accident in Yongzhi Palace that day, everyone was looking at the second princess and Concubine Yan, so Weichen and Lord Ren went to the ruins of Yongzhi Palace to check, and found a few very suspicious things. First, Weichen and Lord Ren searched for a long time on the beam, but they didn't find a lightning rod. Second, it's not right. Lord Ren went to the Si Zhu Division to ask, if the main hall like the Huayin Palace, its girder is made of rigid wood, but the girder scorched wood taken by the minister is violet wood, this wood is much softer than the rigid wood, although it cannot be seen on the outside, but the essence is hollow wood. Thirdly, Wechen found that the wood had been cut and there were a lot of iron filings mixed in with the thunderbolts. ”
"Channeling? You mean artificial? ”
"Maybe there is an element of coincidence, but Weichen can't draw conclusions yet, and just tell the emperor about the suspicious things he found."
Li Siyi walked in, "Your Majesty, the queen asks to see you." ”
"Xuan."
An bowed down to salute the queen, and the queen walked straight in front of the emperor, "Your Majesty, the guards in the palace came to report last night that the bodies of two little eunuchs in the Yongzhi Palace were found in the ruins. ”
"So what, if you protect it, even if you come out alive, I won't let them go."
"But the emperor, the strange thing is that these two little eunuchs were poisoned first."
"What do you mean?"
The queen said slowly, "Originally, the concubine had already suspected that it was Concubine Zheng's handiwork, after all, in the harem, Concubine Yan had a second princess, and now she was going to be canonized as Guiyi, the threat to Concubine Zheng was the greatest, Concubine Yan and Concubine Zheng have been on an equal footing since she entered the palace, but the emperor's canonization suddenly broke this balance. With Concubine Zheng's temperament, I'm afraid she won't tolerate this time. And after the accident at this time, plus the rumors, the second princess will definitely not be able to keep it, so Concubine Yan has no second princess, what reason can be canonized, even if there is, this year's heavy nine has passed, and the New Year is not suitable for canonization, so you can only wait until after the Lantern Festival, which has been postponed for half a year. But this morning, when Qiao Shang was ordered to check on the two eunuchs who had died, she told her concubine that she had accidentally seen the blood stains in the mouths of the two eunuchs being black instead of brown, which should be a sign of poisoning, not blood stains on the internal organs crushed by a heavy object. The concubine asked the imperial doctor to go to examine the injury, but she was indeed poisoned first before being crushed. The concubine had an idea. Maybe this matter is not Concubine Zheng's practice, but a scene directed and acted by Concubine Yan herself. ”
Ji Xuanyuan frowned, "What evidence is there?" ”
"The Huayin Hall collapsed, and the people who served Concubine Yan were fine, but they were more or less injured, but the two little eunuchs who were serving in the outer courtyard happened to be in the palace and crushed to death in the palace. This really can't help but make the concubine suspicious. ”
The more Ji Xuanyuan listened, the colder his face became, and he didn't know what it was for, and Empress Zongzheng didn't dare to say any more.
"Good. I didn't expect such a show. I thought that the second princess was with her, and she really regarded Yun as her daughter. ”
"Your Majesty, an adopted daughter is not as good as a daughter."
Speaking of this, Ji Xuanyuan raised his eyes and glanced at the queen, his eyes were cold, and he didn't say anything after all, "I know, you go back first, the eldest princess and the second princess are there now, you take care of it more, don't teach others to know today's words." ”
The queen nodded, bowed and retreated.
