"Bang!"

With a piercing sound of porcelain cracking, a bowl of soup medicine was thrown to the ground by Emperor Zhao, who had been sick in bed for a long time, and the thick black medicinal juice splashed everywhere, and the yellow robe of Zhao Zihengming, who was standing in front of the bed, was stained with black dots.

The eunuchs and maids in the main hall knelt on the ground, but no one dared to squeak, not even the atmosphere.

Zhao Ziheng also didn't say a word, and stood quietly with his head down, waiting for Emperor Zhao's imminent outburst.

He didn't blame his father for being disappointed or even desperate for him, in fact, his father was angry with him, which made him feel better.

He never imagined that the drug used for his father to temporarily make people unconscious almost took his father's life. At that time, the imperial physician said that as long as he stopped using the drug, his father would come to his senses, however, seven days after Yunjin left the capital, he stopped using the drug on his father, but his father never sobered.

This couldn't help but make him panic, he wanted to save Yunjin, but he never thought of harming his father, so he asked the entire Tai Hospital to start treating his father, after nearly a month of treatment, his father finally woke up, however, his body was not as good as before, it was difficult to even get out of bed and walk, and he could only lie in bed all day, and the doctor couldn't find out what was wrong.

Perhaps his father had guessed that it was his hands and feet, so since he woke up, his father has been beating and scolding him, and he has never drunk the decoction he brought occasionally, obviously afraid that he will do it again.

Emperor Zhao gasped and glared at the person in front of him, "You are an unfilial son, are you unwilling to kill me, I tell you, don't think that you can do whatever you want when you are sick." ”

Zhao Ziheng said with a meek expression: "Father, the son swears that the son has never thought of harming the father, and these medicines are tonics for the father to regulate his body." ”

Emperor Zhao said angrily: "Do you think I will believe your nonsense, if it is a tonic, why has my body not improved after a few months?" ”

Zhao Ziheng was very helpless to argue, so he had to explain: "The imperial doctor said that my father has been irritated recently and refuses to take medicine on time, which is very ...... to the recovery of the body."

Before he could finish speaking, Emperor Zhao suddenly raised his hand and hit him in the face, but because the distance was a little far, only his fingertips slashed across his face.

Zhao Ziheng suddenly had several eye-catching blood marks on his face, but he didn't even frown and endured it without complaint. I don't know how many times it was, and he was numb to it.

"Get out!" Emperor Zhao roared suddenly, and his pale face became a little distorted.

"Yes, Father." Zhao Ziheng bowed and slowly withdrew.

Not far from Emperor Zhao's bedroom, Zhao Ziheng saw two guards hurrying towards him, and without waiting for the other party to approach, he quickly stepped forward and asked, "How is it, is there any news?" Yun Jin suddenly disappeared on the way to exile in the southeast, and his whereabouts have not been left yet, and his life and death are unknown, which is the most worrying thing for him.

The guard lowered his voice and replied: "Back to the prince, the person who went to look for it wrote that there was no news yet, but the letter said one thing, saying that the eldest princess of the eastern Huanyue Kingdom, who had been missing for many years, suddenly returned to the palace, and they asked the prince if they were concerned about this matter. ”

Zhao Ziheng was very disappointed when he heard no news at first, but when he heard the words behind him, he suddenly rekindled his hope, "Tell them that they can't let go of any clues, this prince doesn't believe it, and a good person disappeared inexplicably like this." ”

"Yes." The guard replied loudly and hurried away.

Waiting for the guards to leave, Zhao Ziheng walked towards Changle Palace with a heavy heart and listlessness. As soon as he walked outside his dormitory, he suddenly saw Empress Li coming out of it.

He saluted and called, "Queen Mother." ”

Empress Li saw the blood marks on his face at a glance, and she was distressed, and sighed: "Your father doesn't want to see you, why do you bother to come to him and be scolded in vain." ”

Zhao Ziheng's eyes flickered slightly, and he said sincerely: "It's okay, the father should teach the son a lesson, the son will not blame the father, the son just wants the father to get better quickly to preside over the government, the son is very tired now." ”

When Empress Li heard this, her face stiffened slightly, and she said in her heart: If he is really well, do you think your crown prince position can still be kept?

She knew what the prince had done to the emperor, but she wouldn't blame the prince, even if the prince didn't do anything, it would only be a matter of time before the emperor's body collapsed, so why should she let her only reliance be unhappy? Actually, she wanted to tell the crown prince that the emperor's illness had nothing to do with him, but she gave up after thinking about it.

After the two separated, Empress Li went directly back to her dormitory, drinking tea and thinking about things. In the evening, she decided to go and see Emperor Zhao.

There was silence in the dormitory.

Empress Li came to Emperor Zhao's bed with a bowl of soup porridge, and her tone was as gentle as ever, "Your Majesty, this is the porridge that the concubines boiled, eat some." ”

Emperor Zhao leaned on the pillow and looked at her motionlessly, his heart fluctuated violently, but his voice was very calm, "Why didn't Concubine Yu come to visit me for so many days?" ”

Empress Li didn't reply, and waved her hand to signal all the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace to retreat.

"I asked why you didn't see Concubine Yu?" Emperor Zhao suddenly became furious and knocked over the porridge bowl in Empress Li's hand with a wave of his hand.

Empress Li was not afraid at all, elegantly wiped her fingers with a handkerchief, looked at him and said with a smile: "The emperor is really dedicated, he has been fond of Sister Yu for so many years, is this what people say, 'What you can't get is always the best'?" There was undisguised sarcasm in the words.

Others don't know, but she knows very well that Yu Fengluan had a marriage contract with someone before she came to Dachenghe, and for so many years, she has never forgotten that person in her heart, so she hates Emperor Zhao who snatches love with a knife. And Emperor Zhao tried every means to get Yu Fengluan's heart, but he never got his wish.

Hearing this, Emperor Zhao was even more furious, and the blue tendons on his forehead burst out, "I know, your mother and son are not well-intentioned, you say, do you hate me for favoring Concubine Yu, so you don't allow her to come to visit me." I warn you, what you dare to do to her, I will not spare you. ”

Empress Li sneered, "It seems that we are all poor people, if the emperor knows the reason for his illness, I wonder if he will be so partial to Sister Yu?" ”

Emperor Zhao's eyes shrunk, "What do you mean by this?" ”

"The emperor thinks that his illness is caused by the concubines and the prince, but he doesn't know that the one who really killed the emperor is the emperor's favored Yu Guifei, maybe from the day Yu Guifei was favored, she began to poison the emperor, and the funny thing is that the emperor regarded the poison of Yu Guifei as honey."

"Poof-" Emperor Zhao only felt a churn in his chest, qi and blood surged, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, and the sky was spinning in front of him. His blood-stained lips trembled, and he tried to speak but couldn't make a sound.

Blood splashed on Empress Li's body, she wiped it with a handkerchief, and continued unhurriedly: "The emperor must be very curious about why the concubines know this, hehe, speaking of which, this is also thanks to those women who have been favored by the emperor for a period of time in recent years and have been inexplicably sick." Those women had the same symptoms, which aroused the curiosity of the concubines, and after a long period of observation, the concubines found the reason, it turned out that they were impregnated with the toxins on the emperor's body. But Concubine Yu has been favored so many times, but there is no problem, so the concubine has to suspect her, and after checking, it is true. ”

The mouthful of blood seemed to drain all the strength of Emperor Zhao, and he wanted to sit up, but his whole body was weak and unable to move, and he wanted to speak, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't make a sound.

Now, he finally understood why every time he went to Empress Li's bedroom before, Emperor Li didn't accept his favor, but would give him other women...... Is this woman still the woman who was willing to love him with her life and obey him?

"I treat you well, you ...... Why are you so ruthless...... Yes? After Emperor Zhao tried his best to say this, he spat out another mouthful of blood, and then the whole person lay motionless on the bed, his eyes staring straight into the void.

Empress Li's face showed a sad look, and she sighed faintly: "Yes, if it weren't for the emperor, the concubine wouldn't know that she would be so ruthless." The concubine remembered that when she married into the prince's mansion, the concubine and the emperor raised their eyebrows and respected each other like guests, and they were the loving couple that everyone in the royal family envied. Thinking back to the past, the concubines regretted it so much, the concubines should not have listened to the emperor's promise to help the emperor seize the throne, so that maybe the concubines would not be left behind by the emperor and be frightened day and night in this cold palace. ”

Emperor Zhao on the bed listened motionlessly, he clearly knew that his path to the emperor was about to end, and it ended in the hands of his wife and children and the woman he loved. If you can't love it, and everyone betrays your relatives, is this God's punishment for him?

Empress Li took one last look at the person on the bed, exited the dormitory, and then calmly instructed Gonggong Wan who was guarding outside, "You pick a few reliable palace maids to serve inside, remember, from now on, except for the imperial doctor, it is forbidden for anyone to approach the emperor, and if anyone comes, immediately report it to the palace." "Now Father-in-law Wan has become her most useful confidant.

"Then the Queen Mother ......" Wan Gonggong expressed his concerns.

Empress Li frowned and thought for a while, and said, "The Queen Mother has been in poor health recently, and she has been lying on the bed to rest, so she shouldn't come over." ”

Gonggong Wan bowed and replied: "The slave understands, please rest assured that the queen will arrange everything." ”

Empress Li nodded and led a group of palace maids and eunuchs to leave.

When Empress Li and the others walked away, Gonggong Wan selected a few palace maids and entered Emperor Zhao's bedroom together.

The palace was very quiet, and Gonggong Wan stepped forward and cautiously called Emperor Zhao a few times, but no one responded. He had the courage to stretch his neck and look at Emperor Zhao's face, and found that his eyes were closed, looking dying, if it weren't for the slight undulation of the thin quilt on his chest, he would have thought that the person on the bed had died.

After pretending to explain a few words to the palace maid, Gonggong Wan withdrew from the palace.

Avoiding the night guards, he crept behind a rockery, and after a while, a dark shadow appeared in front of him.

He whispered: "Send a message to the master, there is a change in the palace, the crown prince and the queen mother have grasped the overall situation, the emperor's time is running out, let them prepare." ”

Seeing the black shadow disappear like a ghost, Gonggong Wan couldn't help laughing, and said to himself: Queen Mother, I'm afraid you can't imagine that the mantis catches cicadas and yellow finches, and the day the emperor dies is the time for the palace to change.

From this day on, Emperor Zhao fell into a coma again, and his condition deteriorated severely, and the imperial doctors were helpless.

More than ten days later, late at night, just as the palace people were falling asleep, news suddenly came out of Emperor Zhao's bedroom: The emperor died!

However, before everyone could recover from the shock of the emperor's death, there was earth-shattering news from outside the palace: Shengjing City was surrounded by a large number of soldiers and horses, and quickly approached the palace!

Since then, the Dacheng Dynasty has entered a period of political change that lasted for three months, and at the same time revealed a long-buried historical truth to the world.

In December of the same year, Emperor Zhao Zixuan ascended the throne. The palace change is over. (To be continued.) )
