The sudden words of the imperial grandson attracted everyone's attention. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Ling Jingshu was still neither humble nor arrogant, neither flattered nor nervous, and said: "The slave and maid have thanked His Royal Highness Taisun for his kindness." It's too early to say this, and the most important thing now is the body of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. ”
As soon as the words fell, the prince lying on the ground suddenly groaned in a low voice~ groan.
This faint voice was undoubtedly heard in the ears of everyone.
The emperor's eyes lit up, his trembling hands held the prince's cold hand, and his voice was full of excitement and ecstasy: "Father has woken up!" ”
The emperor was also full of surprise and couldn't wait to look at the prince.
It's a pity that after the prince let out this low moan, there was no sound again. The emperor immediately said to Wei Yan: "Imperial Doctor Wei, isn't the prince already awake?" Why hasn't there been any movement again? ”
Wei Yan squatted down, carefully examined it for a moment, and then said: "Back to the emperor, Wei Chen just applied a needle to release poisonous blood for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, which should have been effective. Wei Chen now removed all the golden needles for His Highness, and asked His Highness to be carried to the bed to rest. ”
The emperor nodded in agreement without hesitation.
Wei Yan neatly pulled out all the golden needles for the prince.
Two guards stepped forward to lift the prince. But he was stopped by the imperial grandson: "You all get out of the way, I'll take my father in." ”
As he spoke, he carefully picked up the prince and walked steadily into the bedroom.
The storm has come! He's going to straighten his chest and face it!
……
Everything that follows will be a nightmare for those who witnessed what happened in the temple today!
The emperor moved the fury of thunder and showed no mercy.
Everyone in the main hall was held and interrogated until it was determined that there was no problem before they were released. The maids who served in the palace were repeatedly tortured, and they inevitably suffered from flesh and skin. Nearly half of them died during the torture.
The women who participated in the sword dance were tortured all the time, and two of them couldn't survive it, and finally cried and confessed to the mastermind behind the scenes.
That female assassin was actually instructed by Concubine Li Shu in the palace!
The chamberlain, who had been poisoned to death, was carefully examined and found out the origin. Before serving at the emperor's side, this chamberlain had been an errand boy by King An's side.
After the emperor found out, he was so angry that he almost fainted on the spot!
This Concubine Li Shu, who has been by his side for many years, is longer than the deposed Queen Xu in terms of age and qualifications. Her son, King An, has a mediocre temperament, is greedy and lustful, and is not liked by him. Therefore, he sent King An to the domain early.
Over the years, he has not had much favor for Concubine Li Shu, but he has never treated her badly. gave her the position of a concubine, and she was rich and rich. She also behaves honestly and is very low-key.
After Empress Xu was deposed, he let Concubine Li Shu and Concubine Wei Xian jointly take charge of palace affairs. Concubine Li Shufei has always been humble and gentle, which is remarkable. When he came to the palace this time, he brought Concubine Wei Xian over and deliberately left Concubine Li Shu in the palace.
Who would have thought that Concubine Li Shu, who seems to be low-key and duty-conscious, would secretly plan such an assassination plan.
If Concubine Li succeeds, he and the crown prince will both die today. The court will immediately be in chaos. At that time, King An also had a bright reason to return to Beijing for mourning. The young King Yan and the imperial grandson may not be the opponents of King An's mother and son.
"Good! What a Concubine Li! What an Ann King! ”
The emperor gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words, his eyes were cold, his face was hideous, and he was full of terrifying murderous aura: "For the sake of a throne, you dare to assassinate me, and also assassinate the crown prince!" I really have a good vision, there is such a poisonous woman with a heart like a poisonous scorpion around me, and she gave birth to such a big rebellious thing! ”
However, in just three days, the emperor faded at a speed visible to the naked eye. The whole person has lost weight, and his body is full of anger, which is terrifying.
Concubine Wei Xian saw it in her eyes, and a chill surged in her heart, and she didn't even have the courage to persuade her.
In the past few days, everyone has had a hard time. She, a virtuous concubine, is no exception.
After this incident, the emperor refused to trust anyone. Looking at the eyes of the people around him, he always has three points of scrutiny and three points of coldness, which makes people shudder.
After learning that Concubine Li Shufei was the mastermind behind the assassination, the emperor was even more angry.
After being silent for a moment, Concubine Wei Xian opened her mouth tremblingly and asked: "Your Majesty, this palace is not suitable to stay any longer, and it is time to return to the palace!" ”
The assassination of the emperor in the palace had already been reported back to the capital, causing an uproar. In the past few days, there have been countless officials who have rushed to the palace to greet the emperor.
With Concubine Li Shufei's cautious acumen, she must have been on guard.
The emperor reluctantly suppressed the anger in his heart and said coldly: "This is not necessary. King Yan was seriously injured and should not move at this time. The prince's condition is even worse, he has been in a coma intermittently, and the residual poison in his body has not been cleared, and he can't afford to work at all. ”
"I'll stay in the palace, and when the two of them are ready, when they will leave to return to Beijing!"
"As for Concubine Li Shu, I have already ordered someone to return to the palace to 'bring' her. At most, tonight, I will go to the palace. ”
What the?
She **** accompanied the emperor and didn't know anything about it.
Concubine Wei Xian was startled, and raised her head reflexively, just in time to meet the emperor's murderous gaze.
Concubine Wei Xian's heart was cold again, but she didn't dare to show half a point on her face, and responded softly: "The emperor is wise!" ”
The emperor's whole person was immersed in irrepressible anger, and he was eager to do something to vent the anger in his heart. Concubine Li Shu, it seems that she is more than lucky.
……
Concubine Wei Xian walked back to the dormitory with heavy steps.
Ling Jingshu and Xinyun greeted each other left and right. Looking at Concubine Wei Xian's solemn and ugly face, Ling Jingshu sighed in her heart and asked in a low voice, "Niangniang, have the masterminds behind the two assassins been found out?" ”
Concubine Wei Xian exhaled a long breath: "It's found out." ”
Ling Jingshu's heart tightened. In front of Xinyun, it was inconvenient to ask carefully, so he simply kept his mouth shut.
Concubine Wei Xian was in a state of confusion, and she also wanted to discuss with Ling Jingshu. Waving his hand, Xinyun signaled Xinyun to lead the palace maids to retreat, and when there were only two people left in the room, Concubine Wei Xian quickly whispered: "I originally thought that the mastermind behind this assassination was King Yan. Unexpectedly, the result of the emperor's order to torture was Concubine Li Shufei and Queen An's mother and son! ”
What the?
Ling Jingshu almost thought she had misheard: "How could it be them?" ”
Obviously, it was King Yan who secretly planned all this, how could it be King An's mother and son?
What went wrong?
Concubine Wei Xian smiled bitterly and sighed, "When I heard this, I was even more shocked than you. However, this is the result of torture. The emperor was convinced that he had ordered someone to secretly arrest Concubine Li Shu. (To be continued.) )
