Chapter 228
Chen Jia didn't want to see the Qin family, in fact, even out of curiosity, she wanted to know how the Qin family was doing now, but she couldn't go, tomorrow, when Yang Mingyuan came to see Yang Zi, where would she go?
……
In the Zichen Palace, the ministers were shocked, and Chu Xiuyu painfully announced that his two palace concubines had died of serious illnesses one after another, and at the same time, there were also three princesses who were sick, but although Chu Xiuyu's facial expression was very sad, the ministers were still puzzled. There are few believers.
It's just that everyone didn't dare to ask in front of Chu Xiuyu, but among the people who went there were loyal and brave sisters, and the ministers naturally focused their eyes on Yang Mingyuan, the loyal and brave marquis.
The five city waiters were all standing in the front row, wearing all blue python robes, Jiang Youchun and Cheng Hu, who knew the news of the death of Zhaoxue and the third princess one step earlier, happened to be standing beside Yang Mingyuan on the left and right, both of them looked at Yang Mingyuan with sympathy and worry, but they occasionally looked at Chu Xiuyu suspiciously, because Concubine Hui had such a thing, and they only knew it now. Sun Aoting and Jiang Wenhan looked at Yang Mingyuan suspiciously.
When he came back this time, King Xian also returned to the capital, and his eyes looking at Yang Mingyuan and Chu Xiuyu were a little intriguing. It seems to be a little gloating, and it is like a kind of loneliness of a rabbit dying and a fox.
Wu Taibao's face was full of schadenfreude, and his eyes were clearly a kind of expectation that the world would not be chaotic.
At this time, Yang Mingyuan, the focus of attention, looked at Chu Xiuyu with a shocked face. He didn't expect to come to the capital this time to face such a situation, Zhao Xue was gone, and his little niece and the third princess were also killed, leaving only the second princess and the sixth prince in the palace, could they have any good end? Even if life is worry-free, there is still a way to die called killing, when the two of them become self-righteous, pretentious, and disrespectful of their elders, in the capital where the imperial power is concentrated, isn't it a matter of minutes to want to die?
"Your Majesty," Yang Mingyuan's voice was slightly choked with excitement. "Weichen wants to know when Zhaoxue and the third princess are here?"
Yang Mingyuan asked. The ministers were surprised again, listening to Yang Mingyuan's tone, he clearly just learned about it. The courtiers at the bottom are bold enough to make eye contact with each other below, and occasionally they can see the phenomenon of talking to each other.
"At the time. I knew that you were already on the way to the capital, so I didn't inform you of this, and Rui Guifei was three days ago, and the third princess thanked her that day, and Rui Guifei was already seriously ill. Seeing the third princess thanking her, she was too sad, so she followed at night. As for Concubine Hui, she died last night. Chu Xiuyu seemed to have all the questions answered.
"The minister still wants to know what kind of disease they have?" Yang Mingyuan's tears slid down his cheeks, all this was too unexpected for him, his body shook a little unsteadily, and Jiang Youchun beside him hurriedly approached him and helped him when he saw this.
I don't want to be at this time, Chu Xiuyu, who was sitting on the dragon chair, coughed violently because of excessive grief, and after a heart-wrenching cough, he vomited a mouthful of blood and covered it on the snow-white handkerchief. Chu Xiuyu coughed and leaned on the dragon chair, leaving the blood-stained handkerchief weakly with his hands and feet, and the dazzling red on the white handkerchief was seen by Dexi and the ministers. Zichen Hall immediately exploded.
When Dexi saw that blush, he was even more frightened and hurried to call the imperial doctor.
Seeing this, the ministers also hurriedly knelt on the mountain and shouted long live, all of them persuaded the emperor to take care of the dragon's body.
Seeing this, Yang Mingyuan also knelt on the ground in fear, not daring to ask any more questions.
King Xian didn't need to kneel, he said with a worried face: "The emperor mourns and changes, Zhongyong Marquis, what is the purpose of asking the emperor when you are pressing?" Do you think the emperor will give the three princesses to death? Or do you think that Concubine Hui and Concubine Rui were both given death by the emperor? ”
"I don't dare. The minister was just overly sad, and he wanted to ask his sister more about her sister's last condition before her death. Please punish the emperor. Yang Mingyuan saw that King Xian pointed out that he was forcing the emperor to ask the emperor, so he was so frightened that he quickly kowtowed and asked for guilt.
Concubine Hui's brother is just a third-grade civil official, and he was also very suspicious of his sister-in-law's death. But when he saw that Yang Mingyuan would be in such a situation after inquiry, he was already so frightened that he didn't dare to come out.
"Hmph, the emperor lost two concubines, and also lost his beloved daughter, and they are all concubines with heirs, and they are already sad and worried. But you don't trust the emperor, you obviously want to trap the emperor in injustice. King Xian began to accuse Yang Mingyuan again. Wu Taibao narrowed his eyes and opened his mouth.
"What is the Marquis of Zhongyong thinking? The third princess is the emperor's favorite little princess, and she is only three years old, is it possible that the emperor can still be angry with a three-year-old child? You obviously don't trust the emperor! ”
"That's it." Chu Xiuyu waved his hand weakly, signaling King Xian and Wu Taibao not to say any more. King Xian saw him and stomped his feet, and stood aside in hatred. Wu Taibao lowered his head, but his heart blossomed. "Mess up, it's best to kill Yang Mingyuan."
Yang Mingyuan wanted to argue a few more words for himself, but he was pulled by Cheng Hu and Jiang Youchun beside him.
"Brother Yang, don't ask again, the matter has come to this, everything must be considered in the long run." Jiang Youchun knelt beside Yang Mingyuan and quietly comforted Yang Mingyuan. Yang Mingyuan's blue eyes looked at the sincerity on Jiang Youchun's face, gritted his teeth and nodded. Turning his head, he saw the worry on Cheng Hu's face, and was slightly moved.
Chu Xiuyu was lying on the dragon chair and gasping, it seemed that he was not lightly ill, the ministers knelt on the ground, no one dared to get up, King Xian had been standing very calmly, it can be seen that this scene was also a little embarrassing. "Dexi, why don't you go and see when the imperial doctor will arrive, otherwise let's disperse the dynasty first and let the emperor go back to rest."
Dexi looked at Chu Xiuyu, Chu Xiuyu waved his hand, signaling himself to rest for a while. Dexi didn't dare to make a mistake.
Fortunately, not long after, Imperial Physician Xu rushed to the Zichen Palace. Chu Xiuyu sat on the dragon chair, and Imperial Physician Xu had to kneel to the side to check the pulse.
After checking the pulse, Imperial Physician Xu judged that Chu Xiuyu was coughing up blood caused by grief, overwork, and impatience, and he told the emperor to cultivate more and not to worry too much.
Father-in-law Dexi stepped forward again and asked in a low voice if Chu Xiuyu had dispersed his cultivation, but Chu Xiuyu beckoned to the envoy of the Xu Academy, and when Imperial Physician Xu saw this, he got up and put his head close to Chu Xiuyu, and after Chu Xiuyu exchanged a few words with him, Imperial Physician Xu took a few steps back, got off the high platform again, and walked to the side of the Marquis of Wucheng and opened his mouth.
"The emperor asked his ministers to bring the medical cases of Concubine Rui and Concubine Hui to Marquis Zhongyong for detailed reference, so Marquis Zhongyong will go with me to the Imperial Doctor's Office to take a look. On the same day, the two concubines and the three princesses and several palace maids and grandmothers were diagnosed with a serious disease, the emperor was inevitably in turmoil in the government and the opposition, and only let the old minister send someone to isolate a few for treatment, the matter has lasted for nearly a month, and the hospital has made every effort to treat it, although the disease has not continued to spread in the harem, but unfortunately the two concubines and the third princess have not been able to survive the difficult time because of their delicate health. The Department of the Imperial Medical Department has a detailed medical record of this. Loyal and brave marquis, please! (To be continued.) )
