Tomorrow will be the first day of the second lunar month, and the early dynasty will be officially restored tomorrow. Emperor Qianwen has already made a plan in his heart, and tomorrow he will announce the new crown prince and prince as the third prince of the third prince Youwang His Royal Highness the Oriental Order, and then the Qintian Supervisor will select the auspicious day of the zodiac and officially canonize the Eastern Order as the prince.

But just today, the squire of the Criminal Department and Dali Siqing investigated the murderer. Emperor Qianwen recalled what happened in the East Palace on the night of the third day of the new year, and it was the third son who fell into a coma first. But he was just drugged, and then Dongfang Xixin was like a cone stabbing and spitting blood, then Dongfang was in a coma, and finally Dongfang was poisoned and vomited blood.

Four princes, two poisoned and two were drugged, Emperor Qianwen already had doubts in his heart, and today Zhao Shilang presented the physical evidence of Dongfang Xu's harm to Dongfang Xi, he had to believe that this murderer was indeed Dongfang Xu.

The medicinal materials in the palace are all supplied by the Tai Hospital according to the prescription, and no matter who it is, they are not allowed to go to the Tai Hospital's medicinal material warehouse to pick up the medicine at will. The medicinal materials outside the palace will never be brought into the palace by other people in the palace, once the palace guards search for hidden medicinal materials, they will directly cut off their hands as punishment.

The day before the prince died, Dongfang Xu was unwell and ordered someone to go to the Tai Hospital to Xuan Imperial Doctor to Yousi Palace to diagnose his pulse. What happened on the night of the third day of the new year, the entire palace even the palace maids and eunuchs in the Xin Zhisi, who were the farthest away from the East Palace, knew about it, not to mention the imperial doctors who were most concerned about the body of the emperor's prince and concubine in their daily lives.

As soon as he heard that the third prince was unwell, Imperial Doctor Wang, who was a little more senior in the Tai Hospital, hurried to Yousi Palace, for fear that if he slowed down for a moment, His Royal Highness the Third Prince would have an accident.

Imperial Doctor Wang, who rushed to Yousi Palace, first observed the complexion of the third prince, although it was slightly pale, there were no symptoms. Later, he took out the pulse pillow and diagnosed the pulse of the three princes, and confirmed that the three princes were in good health, and even if they were drugged before, they did not leave any sequelae.

"Your Royal Highness, Weichen has carefully checked His Highness's pulse, and His Royal Highness is in good health." Imperial Doctor Wang arched his hand and said. His medical skills are among the best in the Tai Hospital, and he said that he is healthy and unharmed, and he must be safe and sound.

"Didn't you see His Royal Highness King You's pale face? Is this still safe and sound?! Before Dongfang Xu could speak, his personal eunuch first scolded Imperial Doctor Wang. Imperial Doctor Wang glanced at the little eunuch who was fighting with people, frowned and said: "I'm afraid that Weichen's medical skills are not perfect, which will delay His Highness's condition, so it is better to invite another imperial doctor to come over and diagnose His Highness's pulse." The words were neither humble nor arrogant, obviously annoyed by the personal eunuch.

Dongfang Xu displeased to reprimand the personal eunuch, turned his head and said to Imperial Doctor Wang with a gentle face: "These subordinates don't understand the rules, and this king has made amends to Imperial Doctor Wang." He arched his hand as he spoke.

How dare Imperial Doctor Wang let the prince salute him, and hurriedly bent his body lower, "His Royal Highness King Youwang has tormented the minister." It's really because Weichen's medical skills are not perfect, and he can't diagnose anything unusual about His Highness. ”

Imperial Doctor Wang couldn't diagnose why Dongfang Xu was unwell, so Dongfang Xu said his symptoms on his own, "This king has been depressed in the past two days, so it's better to prescribe some medicine to get rid of depression." ”

The medicine to get rid of depression is just a few simple tonics, so Imperial Doctor Wang nodded and prescribed a prescription.

On the second day, the prince died, and no one thought that Dongfang Xu's tonic would be the □□ that took the prince's life. But no one can diagnose this tonic, it only makes people feel that Dongfang Xi died suddenly.

In the past few days, Zhao Shilang and Xuan Siqing have been investigating day and night with the sudden death of the prince as the main line, and only then did they find evidence related to Dongfang Xu. After mentioning Dongfang Xuan to them from Dongfang Du, the two of them already had a focus, as long as they put all their minds on Dongfang Xu's body, they would naturally be able to find out the evidence. It is not easy to find human evidence, but physical evidence can be found, that is, the prescription, and the detailed explanation of the medicinal properties of each herb in the prescription.

One of the medicines, if taken by Dongfang Xi, will dissipate the warm qi that protects Dongfang Xi's heart, causing it to faint suddenly, and finally silently lose its breath.

Now that the evidence is conclusive, it is difficult for Emperor Qianwen to believe it or not. The person who is still missing is the person who put the medicine in the food of the Oriental Table. But then again, that person is just an accomplice, and the real mastermind is Dongfang Xu, the younger brother of Dongfang Xi, who is the third prince.

Emperor Qianwen just wrote an edict to abolish the title of the third prince Youwang, take back his fiefdom and demote it to a concubine. This edict, as long as it is stamped with the emperor's seal, will take effect immediately. When this edict is printed and distributed to all parts of the Eastern Qianguo, everyone in the world will know that His Royal Highness the High Three Princes, Youwang, has since become the lowest commoner.

However, before the edict was stamped with a seal, the imperial study was surrounded by Dongfang Xu's troops. The speed was so fast that even Emperor Qianwen was caught off guard.

Dongfang Xu was dressed in red soft armor, silver armor, holding a three-foot Qingfeng, and entered the imperial study with a group of henchmen with a smile. is menacing, and no one believes that it is not a rebellion.

Dongfang Du subconsciously protected the dark clouds behind him, looking at Dongfang Xu in armor, his brows were slightly furrowed, and his eyes were full of disdain and disdain, as if it was not them who were surrounded at this moment but Dongfang Xu.

Dongfang Xu turned a blind eye to Dongfang Du's eyes, still smiling brightly, and said even more presumptuously: "Second Emperor Brother, I'm afraid you won't be able to sit on the position of the prince." After speaking, he looked at Emperor Qianwen who was sitting on the throne, hugged his fists and said: "Father, my son heard that my father was unwell, so I came to visit. ”

After speaking, seeing Emperor Qianwen looking at him indifferently, he put down his hands in disdain. It seems that there is no need for him to pretend to say anything to make him abdicate, at this moment, the imperial study is surrounded by his people, not at this time, let alone when.

Emperor Qianwen looked at Dongfang Xu coldly, and his heart was full of emotion, heartache, and helplessness.

"Third Emperor Brother, do you know that my father originally wanted to make you the prince, not me." Dongfang Du held the dark cloud with his backhand and firmly controlled her behind him, for fear that she would jump out to protect herself.

When Dongfang Xu heard this, he was slightly stunned, and then he regained his smirk, "Second Emperor Brother, what I want is not the position of the prince. "At this point, how can he only need the position of a prince, he wants the supreme throne.

After speaking, he turned his head to look at Emperor Qianwen, with a hint of false concern in his eyes, and said slowly: "Father, you have been tired for so many years, and it is time to rest. Next, you will have a son to govern the country on your behalf, okay? The imperial study was surrounded by his people, and he looked like he was winning, looking at Emperor Qianwen, waiting for him to nod his head to understand the current affairs.

The royal family has no family affection at all, even if it is father and son, they will not hesitate to start when it is time to start.

Emperor Qianwen didn't have any intention of compromise, his eyes were only full of disappointment, "Xu'er, do you really think that you can control the Imperial Forest Army, do you really think that if you surround the imperial study and trap me and your second emperor brother in the imperial study, I will give up the throne to you?" Looking at the hopelessly dull Dongfang Xu, Emperor Qianwen shook his head invisibly.

There was one thing that really surprised Emperor Qianwen, that is, Dongfang Xuan was able to mobilize the Imperial Forest Army. Fan Yi, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, was personally cultivated by Emperor Qianwen, and he has always been loyal to him alone.

When did Dongfang Xu take control of the Imperial Forest Army, and still let him not know it?

With the heart of Dongfang Xuansheng in his hand, he couldn't help but hesitate and tremble slightly, and his feet subconsciously took a step back. But as soon as he thought that he was followed by a group of henchmen, he clenched his long sword again and took two steps forward, closer to Dongfang Du and closer to Emperor Qianwen.

Glancing at the dark clouds that had been protected behind Dongfang Du, Dongfang Xu deliberately said in a relaxed tone in order to get back to the scene just now: "I really didn't expect the second emperor brother to like this little palace maid so much." What is the name of this palace maid? Dongfang Xu made a look of memory, and after a few seconds, he suddenly realized: "It's called Yun'er, right?" The second imperial brother cares so much about this palace maid, why don't you give this palace maid to the imperial brother to play? ”

Dongfang Du's eyes were instantly fierce, as if in the next second, he was about to take Dongfang Xu's life.
