- As a son of man, how much can he really know about the affairs of his father?

Regardless of the factors, just the result, the goal is to be pregnant and expecting to give birth to the virtuous concubine, in that year. Who is the most likely murderer to be hostile to her and to commit murder?

A few years ago, when the second prince Wang Hong came into contact with the servant of the Ye family, he knew these information. Before Concubine Xian was entitled, several concubines who were enshrined one after another are now mostly gone. Wang Hong could only recall their former images from memory, but he couldn't find any doubts.

At that time, Concubine Xian lived in another garden, and she had less contact with other concubines. When he was a child, Wang Hong often went to that courtyard, and he was still deeply impressed by this.

And the key cause of Concubine Xian's death was that she was slow to poison her body without knowing it. But in those days, Wang Hong often ate with her, and did not mention slow poison. Even if he has a slight symptom of wind and cold, he will summon several imperial doctors for diagnosis and treatment, why didn't the imperial doctor notice it at all?

This can only illustrate one point. Concubine Xian was harmed only after she left the garden in the last few months of childbirth.

What a cunning murderer!

In the huge palace, there were actually not a few concubines, and Wang Hong quickly looked away from this angle. Go to another area.

After the father carried out a special "cleaning" work on the harem, the palace people left behind in the previous dynasty. Most of them were sent home and allowed to rent land for farming. But not all the dismissed palace people are willing to go home to farm, and some palace people who have become accustomed to court life have been operating from their masters for many years. He has established his own small privileges in the deep palace, and going home is equivalent to having nothing.

In such a group, there may be people who are dissatisfied with the severance order and have a bad heart to harm the Lord.

Most of the people in this group have been in the palace for a long time, and if they want to play a set of palace killing techniques, their distorted wisdom dares to make the audience smack their tongues.

The father may also consider this problem, in order to protect his family who has no experience of living in the deep palace, he took this action and "cleaned" the dismissal of those who were out of the palace. Most of them are such experienced old slippery heads of the court. But it is difficult for them to have someone left in the palace to borrow the hands of others to retaliate.

Originally, the second prince Wang Hong's skeptical perspective would have turned, but after repeatedly pondering what the old servant of the Ye family had said. A fragment of a time-related memory flashed through his mind. He turned his gaze back to the direction he had suspected.

He didn't want to be the object of suspicion. It was covered by his stepmother Concubine De, who had taken care of him for many years, but no one could wash away his memory, and no one could stop him from pondering in that direction.

I still remember those days. After leaving Concubine Xian's annex, he immediately lived in Concubine De's Xiaohuai Palace, which also gave him the privilege of observing Concubine Xian's "close" contact with her during the two months when Concubine Xian gave birth.

Originally, this memory fragment could only make Wang Hong start to pay attention to Concubine De, and in addition, there would be no more in-depth investigation for the time being, but after paying attention to it for a long time, it really made him see heresy. The heresy he had seen with his own eyes had made the doubts that had been in his heart for several years swell several times in an instant.

About half a month ago, that is, shortly before Mr. Lin was killed, there was a sudden change in the Xiaohuai Palace in the middle of the night. Although Wang Hong is still not sure whether the people in Xiaohuai Palace are directly related to Mr. Lin's accident, it can at least prove that Concubine De has a group of masters under her hands, and these people also have a relatively fast path to enter and exit the palace.

In addition, the number of times Concubine De personally went out of the palace increased significantly during that time.

The dynasty changed flags, and the new monarch made some changes to the laws and regulations used in the previous dynasty. In addition, in order to take care of his family members who have no experience in court life, the current emperor has changed some court regulations, and concubines or imperial heirs are allowed to occasionally go out of the palace to relax.

Even the people of Kyoto have some understanding of this, and they also express their understanding.

But this kind of micro-service out of the palace needs to be accompanied by some internal guards, but Concubine De's frequent micro-clothes out of the palace some time ago did not alarm the emperor's side or alarm a palace person. In addition to keeping her actions extremely secretive, she also made a "puppet" to stay in Xiaohuai Palace instead of her, pretending to be sick and lying in bed to hide people's eyes.

What is there outside the palace that needs her to be so sneaky?

And the group of people she raised, acting, the path is familiar with the road, and the secrecy work is also very skillful, it seems that it is definitely not a temporary find someone from the outside to make up, I am afraid that she started to give this qiē a few years ago.

Even if it can't be confirmed that she started doing this ten years ago, it can at least show that she is not a simple-minded woman.

It is not an exaggeration to live in a palace with many hearts and minds, but if someone uses these extra hearts and eyes to do evil things......

If you want to mention the word vicious, a figure suddenly floated into Wang Hong's mind, it was Liao Shi, who had the notoriety of medicine ghosts that Ye Zhengming had just mentioned in front of him just now.

Because it was Prime Minister Shi Jing who led a group of civil officials to control the City Defense Department in advance, it was regarded as an internal response to the Wang family, and when his grandfather and father led the Wang family army into Beijing, many things in Beijing were still in a normal state, and there was no big riot.

Liao Shi was also still squatting in the prison, but fortunately avoided the burial of the former Emperor Ling before the death of the country.

After entering Beijing, my grandfather was unable to familiarize himself with the humid climate of the seaside capital because of too many old and new injuries accumulated over the years, and he suddenly fell seriously ill and passed away not long after.

His father inherited his grandfather's will and ascended the throne as the emperor, but because of this, he was entangled in a lot of affairs and shelved Liao Shi's affairs, which indirectly caused him to continue to "live" in the prison for more than half a year before he was released.

The reason for Liao Shi's notoriety is because, it is rumored that more than ten years ago, he was invited to the palace to administer medicine to the former empress dowager and achieved good treatment results, and immediately killed her with his backhand. The so-called curing the sick and saving people, for him, is just to make a living person a reality.

His behavior, the former is really a heinous crime for the people of the Southern Zhou Dynasty who take filial piety as the spiritual core. In addition, the act of taking a living person as a real person, although there is no ironclad evidence. But as soon as such words came out, it still gilded his image with a black shadow similar to destroying miè's humanity.

So will the medicine made by him also be contaminated with this smell?

Vicious intentions, coupled with vicious medication, these two design conditions allowed Wang Hong to connect Concubine De and Liao Shi.

If you deduce it carefully, the two conditions of time and location are reflected in these two people. It is also possible to save zài overlapping points.

……

As the thoughts drift away. It seems that he is getting closer to the truth step by step, but his mental state has become a little unstable.

Gradually, the second prince Wang Hong's eyes showed a look of struggle. He crossed his arms over his chest. Hold your shoulders. The more you hug it, the tighter it gets. There was a chill in my heart.

Ye Zhengming took the potion he got from Liao Shi before, and the two hot fires that he pushed out on his chest and back seemed to be destroyed by this chill oozing from the bottom of his heart. It's getting colder.

It wasn't until he heard his brother's call that Wang Hong came back to his senses, and then he felt a slight warmth on his back, and his younger brother Wang Zhe took off his robe and draped it on him.

Helping the second brother tighten his clothes, Wang Zhe said with worried eyes: "Second brother, how much do you know about the Ye family?" ”

Looking at the second brother who had fallen into endless contemplation several times, Wang Zhe already felt that the second brother was a little strange today. And it wasn't until he heard that Ye Ziqing was directly mentioned in his words just now that Wang Zhe was really extremely worried.

Regarding the affairs of the Ye family, Wang Zhe has always advocated hiding from his second brother first, whether in his own concept or in front of his father, so as not to hurt his body.

But he didn't expect that he seemed to have known about it a long time ago, and today, after having a conversation with the only remaining predecessor of the Ye family, he was deeply involved in the cumbersome affairs related to the Ye family, and he was already a little troubled.

Quietly looked at Wang Zhe and was silent for a moment before Wang Hong spoke, but instead of replying to anything, he asked in an extremely calm tone, "What about you?" How much do you really know? ”

There was a hint of abnormality in his calm face.

In the tone in which he spoke at this time, it seemed that the question no longer needed to be answered, and he was only saying: You must know, and not necessarily less than I know, so why do you bother to ask me?

Wang Hong was in a trance.

He suddenly realized that because he was in a hurry just now, when he asked that sentence, it was equivalent to showing a hint of his intention to hide something in front of his second brother.

Wang Zhe hesitated, and Wang Hong didn't speak again, as if he was waiting for something.

In the chariot, an atmosphere that was so quiet that people felt faintly hairy lasted for a long time.

Hearing that the sound of the wheels pressing on the ground changed, it should be almost in the inner city, Wang Zhe's eyebrows moved, as if he had broken free from the frozen situation, sighed softly, and said gently: "Second brother, these are the things of the previous generation. And we just need to do our part as a generation. ”

Wang Hong's gaze was flat, and he still asked in a very calm tone, "Do you really think so?" ”

Wang Zhe was stunned.

Although his feelings for Concubine Xian are not as deep as Wang Hong's, looking at Wang Hong's look in his eyes at this time, he is obviously looking forward to his denial.

But after he was silent for a long time, his heart hardened, and he said, "Yes, that's what I thought. ”

"Okay." Wang Hong bent the corners of his mouth a little far-fetched, "I'm still the same as before." Listen to you. ”

Listening to the second brother's verbal promise, Wang Zhe could clearly feel that he was saying something against his will. But no matter what. Stabilize his mind first, and discuss major matters until he returns to the palace, Wang Zhe didn't think about anything more, and he quickly changed the topic, so that the second brother should not think about it in his heart.

Look at the second brother's nervousness just now. He couldn't help but be nervous, and when he thought about it, he felt more and more that he had made the right decision to hide it from him.

Wang Zhe breathed a long sigh of relief, his mind relaxed a little, but he sneezed coldly. Immediately, I heard the second brother's voice handing over: "Third brother, your clothes." ”

Wang Hong had already taken off the robe that Wang Zhe had put on him just now and handed it over.

Wang Zhe waved his hand. didn't pick it up, just smiled and said, "A little sneeze, I can't help it, but you, wearing hot clothes." Don't take it off. ”

Wang Hong hesitated and said, "You better put your clothes back on." It's already a hassle for you to come out with me. If you come back sick, I'll be to blame. ”

"Accompanying you out to relax, which is also what I, as a younger brother, should do, and you see, as soon as you said that you were going to come out, even my sister came out with me, how lively the family is together." While Wang Zhe was talking, he took the robe that Wang Hong had returned and put it back on him, "The days in the palace are really boring, the shipping ceremony has been held for a few years, and no one has taken you out to see it once." ”

"I didn't come here on my own initiative." Wang Hong smiled faintly, "Those people in the palace serve very dedicatedly, but if I don't care about anything in order to come out and have a good time, then even if I make a little mistake, they will have to be severely punished for it, which is not good." ”

"You say that every time, but are they really as dedicated as you say? Just that bowl of soup two days ago hurt you like that. Fortunately, your body has gradually grown up over the years, if you put it in the early years, you would have to lie down for ten days and a half months if you made such a fuss, but you still have to intercede for that palace maid......" As soon as the words were said here, Wang Zhe sneezed again and couldn't help but squirt.

However, before Wang Hong could speak again, he saw Wang Zhe hurriedly waving his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay...... It's the smell of alcohol in this car...... Liao Shi's medicine is really peculiar. ”

"I'm feeling a little depressed, too." Wang Hong said this as if talking to himself, then turned his head to pull back the corner of the curtain, and instructed the palace maid who was accompanying him outside: "Pull the windshield curtain a little more to breathe a little air." ”

The palace maid immediately agreed, raised the finch head pestle in her hand, and moved the windshield curtain halfway. At this time, the honor guard had already entered the inner city area, blocked by the high city wall, and the sea breeze seemed much weaker. But when the closed and warm space in the chariot was just invaded by the breeze outside the car, Wang Zhe, who had taken off the robe outside his body, still felt a trace of coolness.

But he didn't care too much about himself, but thought of Wang Hong for the first time. After the windshield curtain was lifted halfway, the light in the car suddenly brightened, and he noticed carefully that Wang Hong's face was a little abnormal.

Wang Zhe knew that Wang Hong was always used to hiding his symptoms of physical discomfort from others, so before asking him, Wang Zhe first shook his hand, and then said with a slight surprise: "Why are your hands so cold?" Is there anything else that is uncomfortable? Don't hide it from me. ”

Wang Hong took a deep breath, lowered his head slightly, and didn't speak for a long time, only hearing that he was trying his best to suppress his breath. After a while, he looked up, smiled and said, "I'm fine." ”。 (To be continued......)
