"Something's wrong?"
The queen got up abruptly and looked at the attendant kneeling on the edge of the couch, her expression solemn under the night light.
"The doctors are gone." The chamberlain whispered.
"Is it the crown prince or the queen mother?" The queen asked.
The chamberlain shook his head.
"The Queen Mother's bedroom is already under martial law, and no one is allowed to enter or leave our side." He whispered, his voice tinged with fear.
The queen stood up and looked at the dark night outside, the night wind swirling and howling in the deep palace.
The Queen Mother's bedroom was brightly lit at this time.
Dozens of candles made the palace of the prince as bright as day, but this bright light did not dispel the cold of the autumn night, but made everyone's faces more and more pale.
"What the hell is going on?"
The Queen Mother, who didn't even bother to comb her hair, asked anxiously.
The inner room was crowded with seven or eight imperial doctors, and one of them raised his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
"Niangniang, the prince's illness, I'm afraid that the ministers will be powerless..." he gritted his teeth and said.
This sentence was like a thunderclap, which only shocked the Queen Mother to dizziness and ringing in her ears, her body shook, and she fell into the arms of the female officials behind her.
"What do you mean you can't do anything?" She shouted, "You see the prince three times a day, and you always say that the prince is good, why is there nothing you can do about it all of a sudden?" ”
The doctors knelt on the ground, but no one could say one, two, three.
"I want to ask these people what they have eaten for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." A doctor suddenly gritted his teeth and said.
As soon as these words came out, the attendants in the house suddenly turned to ashes.
"Niangniang, how dare the slaves and maids give His Royal Highness the Crown Prince food indiscriminately. The food and drink are all allowed by the imperial doctors. The attendants shouted.
In addition to shirking responsibility is shirking responsibility. These people are simply unreliable. The Queen Mother stretched out her hand and held her head, pushed away the palace maids, and stumbled to stand in front of the prince's couch.
The prince on the couch was panting, his face was pale, and the blood from his mouth and nose had been wiped clean, but the pillow and futon were still stained with blood.
As he exhaled, the prince's fat body twitched non-stop, as if he was about to lose his breath in the next moment.
It's over, it's over, it's over
The Queen Mother's heart sank. I just feel empty under my feet.
She was an older person, and it was clear to her heart when she saw it.
And they fell crookedly by the couch.
What to do? What to do?
The Queen Mother's tears welled up, and she was about to cry when she raised her hand to hide her face.
"Niangniang, Niangniang, let's hurry up and ask Master Gao to discuss." A chamberlain said in a trembling voice.
"But if you invite Lord Gao, then the prince's affairs will not be hidden." Another chamberlain said in a trembling voice.
The locked imperial city was opened in the middle of the night, and then foreign officials were recruited into the palace, what this meant was very clear.
"So what else can I do? Can the prince hide it like this? The Queen Mother shouted, "It's just the difference between knowing early and knowing late, rather than letting others know early." The mourning family would rather let Lord Gao know first. ’
The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty bullied her, a lonely old woman, and at this time, she only had her own family reliable.
"Quick. Please. ”
The gate of the imperial city opened in the night, and several chamberlains galloped out on horseback, and the sound of horses' hooves was particularly harsh in the quiet night, and it also woke up countless sights in the darkness.
In the palace of the Son of Heaven, the queen also knew about the opening of the palace gate for the first time, and she sat in the hall with a heavy expression.
"People are going to the tall people's house, the Queen Mother has already issued an edict, without the Queen Mother's decree, no one is allowed to enter and leave the palace gate, and the same is true in the Queen Mother's Palace, violators will be killed on the spot." The chamberlain bowed his head and said in a trembling voice.
"Is the prince dead or alive now?" The queen asked.
The chamberlain shook his head.
Someone stumbled in outside the door.
"Concubine An."
The palace maids shouted in a low voice, and the queen shook her head to signal that they didn't need to stop them.
Concubine An walked in, disheveled, holding two burdens in her hands, and her face was panicked.
"Niangniang, the concubine has heard badly, so I am here to protect you." She said.
The queen ignored her.
"Someone." She said, "Take the queen's court dress and seal from the main palace." ”
The palace maids trembled.
At the same time, looking at the attendants standing in the courtyard, Gao Lingbo's face turned pale.
"My lord, please come into the palace." The chamberlain said in a trembling voice.
Gao Lingbo looked up at the night sky, because he was suddenly called, his hair was messy, fluttering in the night wind.
God, God, how unfair you are!
He took a deep breath, and his originally dim eyes instantly glowed again.
"Wait until you pass on Chen Xianggong." He said.
The attendants were shocked.
"Chen Xianggong?"
At this time, go to pass on Chen Xianggong?
"But the Queen Mother didn't say," the chamberlain said uneasily.
"Niangniang is panicked, why do you guys have to panic too?" Gao Lingbo said solemnly, "At such an extraordinary moment, how can you not recruit auxiliary ministers?" What will everyone think of Niangniang in the future? ”
The chamberlain was clever and understood.
"Then what do you want to say when you see Chen Xianggong?" One of the chamberlains asked in a low voice, his expression flickering.
Don't tell the truth, people like Chen Xianggong will never enter the palace in the middle of the night.
"Then tell the truth, what is there to hide." Gao Lingbo said slowly, a sneer appeared on his lips, "Besides, Chen Xianggong is not an outsider. ”
………………………………………………
In the study of the Qin family, the lights were turned on, and the Qin attendant was only wearing obscene clothes, looking at his son who was also dressed like this opposite.
"The latest news says that Gao Lingbo has entered the palace." He whispered, "Also, the chamberlain entered Chen Shao's house again. ”
"Is there something wrong with the Queen Mother or the Prince?" Qin Arc asked.
"Prince." Qin Shi said.
Qin Arc stood up abruptly and turned around to leave.
"Thirteen, the palace gate is already under martial law, and no one can trespass without the queen mother's decree." Qin Shi said, "Don't move at this time. ”
Qin Arc looked back at his father.
"Father, there is no point in not being able to enter the palace gate now." "What we're going to do now is the outside world," he said. ”
Qin Shiyan's heart jumped.
"Have you arrived?" He asked.
Qin Arc nodded.
"Fortunately, I was outside the capital yesterday." He said.
Qin Shijiao slowly exhaled.
"There you go." He said, standing up as well, "I'll take care of this side of the matter." ”
Qin Arc responded, turned around and strode away, disappearing into the dark night.

In the courtyard of the Chen family, the chamberlain had been standing for a moment, and since he said that the prince was critically ill, the people in the house had been silent.
You won't faint without being stimulated, right?
"Master Chen, hurry up." The chamberlain couldn't help but say hurriedly.
Hearing the urging of the chamberlain, Chen Shao's heart sank again.
"How long have you been out?" He asked suddenly.
"It's almost half an hour." The chamberlain blurted out.
Chen Shao's eyes darkened.
"Half an hour, you don't seem to be in a hurry." He said slowly.
The waiter was stunned for a moment, and then looked panicked.
Oops, seen through.
Chen Shao knew that it was not the Queen Mother who sent him a decree to let him enter the palace, but Gao Lingbo who wanted to pull him into the pit.
What to do?
Just when he hesitated, Chen Shao suddenly raised his feet and took a step.
"Let's go." He said.
The chamberlain was stunned again, thinking that he had misheard.
Do you want to go even if you know that you have been deceived?
"Sir."
Mrs. Chen's voice was heard in the courtyard.
Chen Shao's footsteps stopped, this voice had not been heard by the master for a few days, especially with worry and concern.
He turned his head to see Madame Chen hurrying over.
"You can't go." Mrs. Chen held his arm and whispered with tears, "Don't forget about your ancestors." ”
The throne in the palace is inherited alternately, and swords and swords are not uncommon, and there are countless courtiers involved who cannot die well.
"Today's business is also mine." Chen Shao said, stretched out his hand and patted Mrs. Chen's hand, and smiled, "Since you are a gentleman, why not be afraid of danger." ”
He turned and left.
"Sir." Mrs. Chen shouted, tugging at his sleeve.
Chen Shao turned his head.
"In this life, I'm sorry for you and Danniang." He said, bowed his head, and turned to leave.
Mrs. Chen looked at his back and hid her face and wept.
……………………………………………
The sound of horses' hooves broke the silence of the night road, and the night birds on the big trees beside the road kept startling.
"Why do you suddenly rush back to the capital?"
Mr. Gu said in a low voice.
The horse's gallop made his voice tremble.
"That capital is Longtan Tiger's Den, and during the day, he said that he would never go, why did he run to the capital in the middle of the night? Or only with this little bit of people? ”
"Is it appropriate to run to the capital in the middle of the night with a large number of forbidden army guards?" Gonggong Jing asked rhetorically.
In that case, a major crime of rebellion will be suppressed and killed on the spot.
Mr. Gu looked up.
"Something must have happened in the capital."
He said, pausing at this point, staring at the woman leading the night in front of him.
Her horse grew faster and faster, gradually pulling away from them.
"It's just, how did she know?"
*************************************
Note: The title of the king of Jin'an County is in Jin'an, Fuzhou, so it is divided into Wu Yue, and there is bullfighting, so the astrological signs show that the five stars gather in the bullfighting, which means that the emperor star is completely in place.
In addition, in the last Taibai Jingtian incident, the astrological signs indicated that Ziweiyuan corresponded to the imperial palace, Beichen corresponded to the queen's bedroom, and Gou Chen Liuxing corresponded to the princess's palace, so when the rumors were too white and the guest star was seen in Gou Chen, the concubine would think that the child conceived by Concubine An was the true son of heaven, so she was anxious -
