Chapter 359: Seeking Benevolence (2)

Once such thoughts come to mind, they linger in my heart and linger.

Recalling the words and deeds of the ancestors in the past few days, Xu is heart had doubts, and he felt that every sentence had a deep meaning.

Chu Weilin suppressed the panic in her heart and took a few deep breaths.

Everyone is not good-looking, Chang Henghan and Chang Hengmiao are not there, Chang Hengchen seems to have become the backbone.

The bright moon was hanging high, Chu Weilin raised her head and glanced at the full moon, she had too many puzzles, but she couldn't tell anyone at this moment, that is, to Chu Lunxin, she didn't distrust, but she couldn't speak.

At this time, if Chang Yuyun is here, how good it would be.

Having someone to help us come up with ideas is a luxury for Chu Weilin, who is a little confused at the moment.

Outside the palace gate, there were also some rumors who came to inquire about the news, and the Chang Henghan brothers took a look at them, wanting to deal with a pair of news, but they couldn't start.

No one knows what is going on in the palace.

Everyone has their own ability, thinking of a way to stuff silver and send things, but the palace door has been closed, what can be done.

This is to wait until the sky spits out the white of the fish's belly.

Chang Hengmiao wiped his tired face, and the little servant handed him some snacks, but he didn't have an appetite, just drank some water.

On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, it was the day when the yamen was sealed, and the ministers who came to the early court saw this situation, and they were also worried in their hearts.

On this day, the saint did not go to court, but he sent an edict to the Chang family to let Chu Weilin enter the palace.

When Chu Weilin received the order, her heart was full of emotions. Although he hesitated, he did not delay, changed his clothes and got into the carriage.

Chu Lunxin sent her all the way to the outside of the palace gate.

Seeing Chu Lunxin's entangled expression, Chu Weilin held her hand and said, "Is it a blessing or a curse, it is a disaster that can't be avoided, the holy oracle, there is no reason to avoid it, I will go to the palace, so I can find out what happened." After all, there is only one sixth uncle and aunt......"

Chu Lunxin understood what Chu Weilin meant. The Liu family still relies on the old ancestor now, but after all, she is a person with different intentions, and if there is any unclear situation in the palace, there will be a conflict of interest. The words that came out of Liu's mouth. You can't believe it all.

I saw that the palace gate was close in front of me. Chu Lunxin advised: "The rules in the palace are big, you have never been in and out of the palace, you have to be careful with yourself." Speaking of which. Wei Wan should still be in the palace, what's the situation, if you can see Wei Wan's face, the sisters will always have a help. Brother Lin and Brother Yan, don't worry, I will take care of it for you. ”

Chu Weilin nodded in response.

Stepping on the carriage, Chu Weilin glanced at the high palace wall, and was about to follow the mama who led the way in, Chang Hengmiao and Chang Henghan hurriedly came over.

The two of them gave a few instructions, and Chang Hengmiao secretly stuffed Chu Weilin with a money bag: "Don't save the places in the palace that need to be tied." ”

Chu Weilin bowed.

Entering the palace gate and getting on the soft sedan chair, Chu Weilin had no intention of taking a look at the luxurious appearance of the palace, and waited for the sedan chair to stop, and then was led down by the mother.

When I looked up, I saw that it was the Cihui Palace.

The Queen Mother has lived in Cihui Palace for a long time, and has always believed in Buddhism, as soon as she stepped in, there was a faint scent of sandalwood between her noses.

Chu Weilin hurriedly glanced at the palace maids and eunuchs, and couldn't help but feel a little nervous when she saw their solemn expressions.

"Mrs. Chang, please come here." The palace maid who claimed to be Su Shui led Chu Weilin to the side hall.

There was a low voice from inside, as if they were arguing about something, and they lifted the curtain and went in, and went around to the inner room, and Chu Weilin saw that there were six or seven people gathered inside.

One of them, very familiar, Chu Weilin recognized it, it was Master Cao from the Tai Hospital, and Brother Yi'er's poison back then relied on his skillful hands to rejuvenate.

Seeing Chu Weilin coming, everyone made a way, Chu Weilin looked forward, and on the carved Qiangong bed, the ancestor was lying there, his face was bloodless.

Chu Weilin staggered to the bed, looking at the old ancestor's appearance in disbelief.

The skin is yellowed, the eyes are closed, the hair is scattered, the chin, which was still somewhat rounded, is deeply sunken, and the whole face is pointed.

Obviously, when I set off to enter the palace yesterday afternoon, it wasn't like this, why did it take a day to become like this?

Chu Weilin's eyes widened, she saw the dying state on the face of the old ancestor, even in the old lady Zhang, she didn't have such a strong feeling.

"W-What the hell is this? What about the sixth uncle? What about the sixth uncle? Chu Weilin muttered a few words in a low voice.

Su Shui leaned down and whispered to Chu Weilin: "Madam, the sixth lady of your mansion had a seizure yesterday and asked someone to move her to Concubine Xian's place, and it seems that she hasn't woken up yet." ”

The old ancestor was dying, the Liu family fainted, what happened in this palace yesterday!

Chu Weilin turned her head to look at Su Shui, wanting to hear a word or two from her mouth, but Su Shui shook her head and didn't speak.

The palace maid had the helplessness of the palace maid, Chu Weilin had no choice but to give up and ask Lord Cao: "Lord Cao, what the hell ......is this ancestor?"

Lord Cao shook his head, Chu Weilin's eyes darkened, and she could see that Lord Cao didn't want to say it, but was telling her that there was nothing to be done, the condition of the ancestors, and they were powerless as doctors.

There was a sound of footsteps outside, Su Shui took a look, and then came in and said to Chu Weilin: "Madame should go to the Queen Mother with the slave maid, and the princess of King Chong is also there." ”

The ancestor didn't wake up, and it was not a way for her to stay here, so she went to the queen mother's bedroom according to what Su Shui said.

In the warm pavilion, Chu Weiwan sat in a regular manner, but there was no figure of the queen mother.

Seeing Chu Weilin coming, Chu Weiwan looked towards the inner room, raised his chin, and whispered: "The Queen Mother didn't sleep all night, she just rested." ”

Chu Weilin sat down beside Chu Weiwan, and countless questions were wrapped in her heart, waiting for Chu Weiwan to solve her doubts.

Chu Weiwan glanced at the palace maids who were waiting on the side, they each stood with their heads bowed, Chu Weiwan knew that the Queen Mother didn't mind her telling Chu Weilin about the matter, otherwise, she wouldn't let their sisters meet here.

"At the banquet last night, it was all good at first, until the Lantern Festival." Chu Weiwanzi carefully explained it to Chu Weilin.

The practice of the Lantern Festival, the capital is completely different from the old. Since the relocation of the capital, the new practice has slowly flourished in the palace, and if it were not specially ordered by the masters, the imperial dining room would not have been prepared in the old capital.

The Lantern Festival last night is the practice in the capital now.

The emperor took one, but before he tasted it, he saw that the skin of the Lantern Festival was warm and delicate, and he couldn't help but smile: "This is the flavor of the old capital?" ”

There are palace people, only the emperor, the queen and the queen mother are in front of the old capital flavor, the queen mother talked about it a few days ago. The imperial concubine kept it in mind. That's when I ordered the imperial dining room to prepare.

The emperor praised the imperial concubine a few words, and wanted to taste it, but when he saw the thoughtful appearance of the old ancestor, he couldn't help but evoke memories.

Whether it is the emperor or the ancestors. They were all born and raised in the old capital. The Lantern Festival in memory. It's always been the taste of the old capital.

When it comes to the past of the old capital, Gu is emotional, and even Chu Weiwan, who has lived in the old capital for several years, misses it.

That bowl of Lantern Festival. The emperor didn't taste it, and gave it all to the ancestors.

The old ancestor respectfully took it, ate one, and saw that the little prince was also eager to try, and after Concubine Liu Xian nodded, he asked the Liu family to feed the little prince one.

The little prince had a small mouth, only half of it was bitten, and he had just swallowed it, but he saw the old ancestor next to him covering his mouth in horror, and the whole person fell backwards.

For a while, there was no laughter or laughter on the table, and such a change made everyone unable to come back to their senses.

Liu Shi threw himself to the old ancestor's side, and the prince of Chongwang came to his senses, pulled the little prince over, forced him to open his mouth, stretched out his fingers and wanted him to spit it out, but it was too late, the little prince fell softly, and his little body couldn't help twitching.

Concubine Liu Xian screamed, where could she care about the rules and etiquette, rushed over and hugged her son, seeing his painful appearance, she almost turned her back on her anger.

Liu Shi looked at the remaining half of the Lantern Festival, his eyes were dark, and he fainted.

The problem is undoubtedly on the bowl of Lantern Festival, the emperor was furious, if it wasn't for this bowl given to the ancestor, it was he who fell down at the moment, he glanced at the imperial concubine coldly, the imperial concubine knelt down, buried her head in the ground, and didn't dare to move.

Under such a change, no one can leave the court.

The old ancestor was carried to the Cihui Palace, and the imperial doctors diagnosed it all night, knowing that it was poisoning, but they were helpless.

The little prince, because he ate less, his life was probably fine, but his condition was not good.

Chu Weilin's heart was pounding when she heard this, countless thoughts were swirling in her head, and she was a little unreasonable.

"In the Lantern Festival of the queen and the queen mother, is there poison?"

Chu Weiwan shook his head: "It's not poisonous, only in the emperor's bowl, it's poisoned." ”

Chu Weilin pursed her lips.

In the previous life, the death of the saint was a conspiracy, and it was the three princes and the imperial concubine who started it, this time, the imperial concubine was involved, but the saint avoided it because of the ancestors, but is all this really so simple?

Chu Weilin didn't believe it, she didn't believe that the imperial concubine would be so confused that she would do something on the Lantern Festival, this is too obvious, everyone knows that it was the imperial concubine who made people prepare the Lantern Festival in the old capital.

If you really want to poison, the imperial concubine doesn't need to make it so complicated, it's the same for everyone, it's all the flavor of the capital, and on days like Shangyuan, the emperor will also taste one. After the investigation, as long as the mouth of the person who started it was tight, this matter could not be involved in the imperial concubine at all, and now, even if the people below resisted the matter, the imperial concubine would be dirty.

Moreover, this life is very different from the previous life.

In the previous life, Queen Zhu died, the Queen Mother was also lingering on the sickbed, the harem was taken care of by the imperial concubine, Concubine Liu Xian was assistant, the three princes were powerful, the emperor died, and the next thing was logical, who could stand in the way of Queen Zhu and the three princes?

But in this life, Queen Zhu is here, and the Queen Mother is healthy, but there was an accident in the saint, and Queen Zhu can let the imperial concubine lead her nose? In the previous dynasty, several princes had foundations, and not the three princes could cover the sky with one hand.

The reason why the imperial concubine is the imperial concubine must have her city and ability, Chu Weilin doesn't believe it, she will be confused at this moment.

Chu Weilin involuntarily turned her head and glanced in the direction of the side hall, thinking of the old ancestor's dying appearance, her heart twitched heavily.

What the old ancestor specially said to her the night before, the ebony box handed to her before entering the palace yesterday, all this is a sign that the old ancestor knows that he will go and never return.

Chu Weilin's hand in his sleeve couldn't help but clench tightly.

Why did the ancestor know that something would happen? The poison that was clearly directed at the emperor, why did he come to the ancestors?

Coincidental? Chu Weilin doesn't believe it, where are there so many coincidences in this world?

Chu Weilin's gaze moved to the direction of the inner room, and she suddenly remembered the day of the first day of junior high school.

The ancestor took a break in the Cihui Palace that day, did she say something to the Queen Mother?

Su Shui called in a low voice outside: "Madam, Mrs. Chang is not very good there." ”

Chu Weilin hurriedly got up, the old ancestor was not good in the first place, not to mention that it was not good, it was clear that it was useless to have bad news.

Chu Weiwan accompanied Chu Weilin to the side hall.

Chu Weilin walked in quickly, sat down in front of the bed, and leaned down to look at the old ancestor: "Old ancestor, it's me, I'm here." ”

The old ancestor looked pained, but she seemed to hear Chu Weilin's voice, her eyelids trembled, and she didn't open them, but she secreted tears.

Chu Weilin held the ancestor's hand, a cold, weak hand.

The old ancestor's chapped lips couldn't help but snort, and she wanted to say something, but she couldn't make a sound.

Chu Weilin leaned over to hear clearly, but only heard the sound of heavy, irregular breathing.

Chu Weilin looked up at Lord Cao, who still shook his head.

Chu Weilin had no choice but to say in the ear of the old ancestor: "Old ancestor, I know, I remember everything you said to me the night before, and I will explain it to the master." I have put away the box you handed me, and I will distribute it to my sister-in-law and brother-in-law in the future, so that I will not let a few brothers and sisters suffer. ”

The Old Ancestor's breathing was a little heavier, and his chest heaved a few times, and then calmed down again.

"Ancestor!"

Liu's voice came from outside, she stumbled in, and saw Chu Weilin sitting on the edge of the bed, she fell forward in three steps and two steps: "Yu Yun's daughter-in-law......"

Chu Weilin slowly raised his hand and slowly moved to the nose of the old ancestor, only a faint breath.

"Ancestor!" Liu hurriedly called again.

Chu Weilin staggered to her feet and invited Master Cao to step forward.

After Lord Cao checked, he didn't shake his head again, but looked at Chu Weilin and Liu with sad eyes: "Please mourn the two ladies." ”

Chu Weilin's body shook, Liu's feet weakened, and he fell to the ground.

Chu Weiwan heard the movement, let out a long sigh, and went to the Queen Mother's bedroom.

The imperial doctors retreated, leaving only Chu Weilin and Liu Shi staring at each other.

Chu Weilin helped Liu up and said, "Sixth uncle, how is the little prince?" ”

Speaking of the little prince, Liu's tears fell: "If you haven't woken up yet, you've woken up, and you can't be the same as before......"

Rao was mentally prepared, and when she heard such words, Chu Weilin still sighed in her heart.

She sat down on the edge of the bed, looked at the old ancestor who had no breath, and couldn't help but ask in her heart, whose wish was this result.

Emperor? Dowager? Or someone else?

The ancestor was really willing to pay for his life in this? (To be continued.) )
