Chapter 180

"With some origami powder." A cold frost flashed in Mu Haoyu's eyes, "Take it and give it to Concubine Yuan, and tell her what she is taking." "Let her taste the same taste of the folded grass.

"Yes." Li Desheng responded expressionlessly, and Imperial Physician Xu stood aside and couldn't even sigh in his throat.

The emperor's move to treat others in the way of others is understandable, after all, Yuan Guifei did unrighteous things first, and she can't complain that the emperor is a killer. If Yuan Guifei wants to live and ask for help from the imperial doctor, it is absolutely impossible, the emperor dares to order that the imperial doctor will never be allowed to treat, chronic medicine is not terrible, it is always just a procrastination, if you want to live, you need to avoid eating a lot of things, this is also a punishment of change of direction, more maddening than death.

After the general things were instructed, he asked the younger son about the situation of taking power, and told the younger son to do things safely, not to mess up at this time.

Mu Jin responded clearly, seeing that his father's tired color was flushing, he hurriedly urged his father to hurry up and rest himself to stay here tonight, Imperial Doctor Xu could not leave before the situation stabilized, and there was an ear room in the hall for rest.

Li Desheng went to do what the emperor ordered, Mu Jinming wanted to be born to know everything that happened tonight, Li Desheng didn't have time to call the secret guard who followed that night to ask about the situation.

There is a minister of the court who has placed eyeliner in the palace, and before entering the palace, he got the news that the emperor suddenly summoned the imperial doctor overnight, and he couldn't help but guess whether the emperor's dragon body was abnormal, and entered the palace in a sedan chair with many questions and speculations.

Soon after the minister entered the palace, a large number of forbidden troops surrounded the Great Prince's Mansion and the Yuan family, and the gate was forcibly knocked open, and the forbidden troops rushed into the palace with a cold face to get people.

Mama Zhou frowned when she heard the footsteps coming from the front yard, and sent someone to see what was going on, but before she could learn about the situation, she was taken down by the forbidden army who came on foot.

"What are you going to do, presumptuous. This is the Great Prince's Mansion! Mama Zhou struggled and exclaimed, her eyes were puzzled and shocked, who could bear this sudden attack early in the morning.

The forbidden army that grabbed Mama Zhou did not speak. With his colleagues, he took people to the front yard and separated them.

Yuan was sitting on a chair combing his hair, when he saw a man break in, he was shocked and said angrily: "Bold." The Great Prince's Mansion also dares to break in! The Yuan clan, who had never seen such a battle, was frightened, and forced himself to calmly take up the concubine's shelf.

"The emperor's will here, please ask the concubine to follow me." The commander of the forbidden army came forward, holding the Ming and Huang holy decrees, and the Yuan clan was no longer willing to disobey the holy order, so he obediently followed.

When they arrived at the front yard, the maids in the house were detained in one place, and the rest were the ladies in the house, except for Xiao Yuan, who was pregnant with Liujia, was allowed to match two Yahuan. The rest of the women's subordinates were all imprisoned, and there were a large number of forbidden troops guarding the house, and no one dared to use their brains.

The eldest prince's study was sealed and guarded by the forbidden army, and it was opened when the people from the criminal department came down to investigate thoroughly.

The Yuan family and several aunts were imprisoned in a room, everyone looked at each other and didn't know what was going on, as for the people in the mansion who were in a big fight, the uneasy atmosphere gradually spread, and everyone's eyebrows were furrowed, lest it be a big crime of raiding the family and exterminating the clan. At the moment of life and death, the small contradictions between those women are nothing in this big disaster, and now we should work together to tide over the difficulties.

The situation of the Yuan family is the same as that of the Great Prince's Mansion. The forbidden army took over the whole thing, as for the people in the mansion who would use breakfast in the future, they could only go hungry, and the forbidden army could not care about these trivial matters, and dealing with the forbidden army was like playing the harp to a cow and no one paid attention to it.

In the palace, the sound of early court propaganda sounded, and the courtiers lined up to enter the Qinzheng Palace. A few ministers frowned slightly, as if something was bothering them.

Today, except for the Wing King, who sometimes sees the head and the tail and occasionally disappears suddenly, he has not yet arrived, and even the third prince Mu Jinming is also absent. This anomaly seems to some people to have a different meaning.

The strangeness of the Winged King was no longer strange in the eyes of the courtiers, and he lost his previous interest to ask why the Winged King did not go to court again. Anyway, Ouyang Ye, a father who is a man, has always been incompetent, and he often doesn't know anything about the Wing King, and a few times he is looking for other things to prevaricate in the past, as if the Wing King is not his own daughter, he doesn't care about it, this kind of situation happens from time to time in the family, but it only appears in the children of the concubine, and the concubine does not have such 'treatment', it is not enough to hold it in his hand, how can he completely ignore it to the end like Ouyang Ye.

Many ministers have come to a conclusion that the reason why Ouyang Ye is not close to the Wing King is that the Wing King has been sent out of Beijing for many years since he was a child, which is long enough for a full eleven years, and he has not heard that Ouyang Ye has ever visited him, throwing his young concubine outside like a shopkeeper, and throwing it to his subordinates to finish the job, how irresponsible, no wonder Wing King has a cold face and no words for Ouyang Ye, reflecting Ouyang Ye's cold-blooded character from the side, he really pinched the cold sweat for Wing King, it is unlucky enough to have such a father, and it is really hard to have today's status.

As for the three princes and courtiers unanimously believe that they are with the Yiwang, it is easy to think about this aspect with the last relocation of the palace, of course, there are also people who suspect that the emperor is seriously ill The reason why the three princes learned that they were serving by the emperor's side, the courtiers who have this idea are not sure, this is related to the issue of establishing a prince, the three princes are filial piety in front of the emperor so big prince, do you know it or not?

Looking at the expression of the eldest prince as usual, the possibility of not knowing is very great, so will the emperor's real heir be the third prince? This question has always been in my mind, and I can't conclude for a long time, and most of the courtiers who are not optimistic about the three princes are not optimistic.

After waiting for a while, the emperor did not come, and the minister who secretly got the news couldn't sit still, what is the situation with the emperor, everyone is waiting anxiously.

Li Desheng came to give the courtiers a chance to breathe, all eyes were focused on Li Desheng, it was known that the emperor was very likely to cancel today's early dynasty, as for the reason, it was the focus of the courtiers' attention.

Li Desheng stood in front and said the news that the emperor was seriously ill with an expressionless face.

The courtiers below were in an uproar, passing glances and speculations to each other, and the same scene from a year ago suddenly appeared in their minds, and suddenly a chill rose from under their feet, and a stirring spirit pulled the chaotic thoughts back to reality, without him. The scene in front of him is exactly the same as the rebellion of the second prince Mu Rong a year ago, the same place, the same people. Will it still be the same ending?

The eyes of the courtiers were subconsciously focused on the body of the eldest prince Mu Zhao, who was wondering whether the emperor said that the illness was true or false, and Mu Zhao was stared at by many pairs of eyes at the same time. Suddenly, the hairs stood on end, and I was at a loss.

What's the matter, why do you look at yourself with strange eyes, you haven't done anything, Mu Zhao shouted in his heart, and he tried his best to ignore the sight projected on his body.

Suddenly, a profound scene appeared in Mu Zhao's mind, and the whole person woke up like an initiation, and he understood. Understand what the courtier's strange behavior refers to, Mu Rong, isn't his second brother just launching a rebellion to force the palace to seize the throne after the emperor said he was sick, no wonder, no wonder the courtier's gaze made him feel bad, and for a moment he felt that the emperor was testing himself with the same tricks, so he set up a suspicious array to lead himself into a trap to achieve his goal, no, no, it's not like this! He didn't. No, nothing? Can't say it for a while, don't you have the ambition to take the throne? He could not answer in the affirmative. He has a voyeuristic heart for the emperors.

But he never wanted to be the second Mu Rong, and he never had the intention of harming the emperor, he just, just wanted to stand in the same position as the third prince Mu Jinming and win the dignity he deserved.

Li Desheng saw the reaction of the ministers in his eyes, and sighed at the eldest prince Mu Zhao's ability to change his color under the eyes of the ministers, and made good progress, at least his ability to be happy and angry in the face of major events is growing, but unfortunately there is only one throne, and the heir recognized by the emperor in his heart will never be the eldest prince.

When the courtiers gradually withdrew their eyes for their faux pas and quieted down, Li Desheng's next words would be a thunderbolt. There was a heavy bang above the heads of the courtiers.

Suddenly, there was a feeling that the mountain rain was about to come and the wind was full of buildings, and some keen courtiers suddenly found that Li Desheng's facial expression revealed a slight connotation.

"The reason why the emperor is seriously ill." Li Desheng paused slightly, and his eyes hit the eldest prince Mu Zhao intentionally or unintentionally.

Mu Zhao is a spirit. keenly noticed Li Desheng's slightly meaningful gaze, what's going on?

The courtiers were very discerning. Seeing Li Desheng's actions, he was very surprised, is it really related to the eldest prince? No, many people don't want to believe their guesses.

Li Desheng retracted his gaze and continued the unfinished words just now, "The emperor's serious illness is caused by the poisoning of Yuan Guifei. "Stop and give the ministers time to react.

The courtiers were stunned when they heard this, this, this, could it be that they heard it wrong, everyone's eyes were focused on Li Desheng's body, with expectation in his eyes, and waited for Li Desheng to say it again, so as to confirm that he had no ears behind his ears.

For Mu Zhao, it was like a bolt from the blue, he opened his mouth in astonishment, he had lost his previous calm, his face was filled with disbelief and confusion, and a voice in his heart kept echoing in his ears, not true, this is not true, how could my mother be, how could it be, it shouldn't be at all, why! One question after another came to my mind, but there was no way to solve it.

"The emperor has ordered a thorough investigation of the poisoning, and those who have different incidents will be detained for later trial." Li Desheng's not-so-shrill voice sounded again, recalling the wandering thoughts of the ministers.

"Investigate thoroughly with the Dali Temple of the Criminal Department." Li Desheng looked at the eldest prince and said, "His Royal Highness, please, and Lord Yuan." As soon as the words fell, the forbidden army waiting outside the hall immediately entered the main hall, picked off Lord Yuan's black veil, and escorted Lord Yuan and the prince down.

"Father-in-law Li?" Zhou Qian, the secretary of the Criminal Department, felt that he hadn't woken up, and the one he had just done was like a dream, and when he woke up, he was completely stunned. Like Zhou Qian, there was also Dali Siqing, who heard Zhou Qian speak before him, so he listened carefully to this rather unbelievable thing on the side.

At the beginning of Zhou Qian, the courtiers turned to Li Desheng one by one, and they needed a lot of information to judge that everything they had heard before was true.

Li Desheng took out a fold from his sleeve and handed it to Zhou Qiandao: "This is the emperor's edict, the matter must be ascertained as much as possible, the emperor's current situation is unknown, all the imperial doctors of the Tai Hospital have been summoned to the Longhua Palace for consultation, Yuan Guifei has been placed under house arrest in the palace, if you need to be arraigned, you can use this edict to enter the palace." The meaning of the words is obvious, but the poisoning of Yuan Guifei is indeed a thing, and it cannot be changed.

Zhou Qian respectfully took the command and asked: "The emperor is ...... now" All the people from the Tai Hospital were dispatched, and it seemed that the situation was even stricter than expected.

Li Desheng looked sad, shook his head and sighed, "It's not good." ”

can make Gonggong Li say these three words are not very good, the meaning represented is remarkable, and the general taboo words cannot be noisy, since Gonggong Li said it without evasion, the courtiers' hearts were full of uneasy feelings. One by one, they turned into wooden stakes with their mouths open, their minds went blank, and the words of doom echoed in their ears.

The emperor was seriously ill. The crown prince's position is undecided, if the emperor goes first. What if the storage space is empty? At present, the eldest prince is suspicious, and the matter cannot be thoroughly investigated for a while, this process is too difficult, and the remaining three princes have not shown up, I don't know what the situation is.

The courtiers who supported the eldest prince beat a drum in their hearts, that is, they determined that Yuan Guifei was poisoned, and Yuan Guifei and the Yuan family behind him would definitely not be able to escape, as for whether the eldest prince knew what Yuan Guifei did. Many courtiers sigh easily to express, whether they know whether the eldest prince knows or not, they will be dragged down by Yuan Guifei, if the emperor compares the matter of the second prince Mu Rong with the eldest prince at this time, it will be a big incident.

The courtiers didn't dare to pat their chests to guarantee that the eldest prince had not intervened in the whole matter, and they all gave each other glances, planning to see the situation first before deciding, if the eldest prince really fell, they courtiers could not follow forward, unless their brains were not bright and they were purely looking for death.

I was going for the future, but I didn't think I would take a life. Few people do such stupid things, and seeking benefits and avoiding disadvantages is something imprinted in everyone's bones, and avoiding harm for the sake of profit. What a concise and philosophical statement.

Li Desheng still has to go back to Longhua Hall to guard, the ministers of the court and the central government can do their own thing, whether to leave or leave their own decisions, it is estimated that none of the courtiers are in a hurry to return to the house, Li Desheng thought.

The poisoning of Concubine Yuan set off a storm in the court, and after Li Desheng left, he pulled back his mind for a while, with an incredible look on his face, as if carved out of a mold.

The courtiers who were too frightened and relieved came look at me, I look at you. Squirming lips in the mouth of many questions rolled but not a word can be spit out, stupidly standing with big eyes and staring.

Zhou Qian came back to his senses and hurriedly pulled Dali Siqing to take the opportunity to escape. If you don't go and be surrounded by it, you won't be able to walk if you want to, so it's important to do business. The identity of the person detained in the case is not ordinary, the pressure has increased and the forehead is covered with fine sweat, and the heart is completely bottomless, and it is only possible to discuss countermeasures, time waits for no one, and the worst person who dies in a moment will be himself.

Dali Siqing rushed out by Zhou Qian's sleeves, like a poor ghost hiding debts, the basic etiquette was completely abandoned, and he knew that Zhou Qian's intention was to cooperate very much.

Zhou Qian, the powerful general of the Criminal Department around the emperor, has run away, and the officials who stayed behind have stared dryly, what should I do, the people who can hear the news have run away, are they interesting here?

"We can't go to Longhua Palace." An official's abrupt opening attracted the attention of the ministers.

"You can't even talk about it." It is a matter of royal secrets, and before the truth is ascertained, the royal affairs are discussed in vain, and according to the law, it should be severely punished, and some officials kindly reminded them.

Hearing this, many courtiers' faces froze, but fortunately someone reminded them otherwise, they really made a mistake, and they didn't ask for mercy, and immediately became the chicken that killed the chicken and set an example for the monkey.

"It makes sense." The minister nodded in agreement, almost, it's not easy.

"It's best not to do anything at this time." The minister who retracted his calm spoke, "Let's all go back, don't pass news to each other, it won't take a few days if the criminal department is fast." "Delivering news privately is the same as arguing about the royal family, and it is also suspected of interfering with the criminal department's judgment of the case under false public aid.

Blame others for not reminding? Hehe, I don't have a brain, I haven't even had this vision for many years as an official, and I have a face to put on a pitiful and wronged look, so I still want to stay cool, don't bother others.

Everyone frequently pointed out that this is a big taboo, and there must be no mistakes.

"So let's go." The first rank officer spoke, and the officials had nothing to say, so they said goodbye to each other and left the palace.

Even if you unanimously acquiesce in not communicating with each other, you must grasp the concern for the emperor's condition, and don't make jokes when you don't know anything.

The eldest prince really can't intervene on his side, so he can only say a sentence to ask for more blessings, it is related to murdering the emperor, and the weight of this crime is inseparable from a dead word, and many ministers are helpless now.

Mu Zhao, who was locked in the cell of the Criminal Department, deliberately stayed in a single room due to his identity, and the current head of the Yuan family, Yuan Qing Lu Yuan, was locked in the next room, both of whom were important suspects, and they were mainly detained to prevent exchanging news with others.

Mu Zhao stood silently in the cell, having never stayed in such a simple and dirty place since he was born. Dozens of cells were next to each other, none of them were empty, and all the suspects involved in the incident were being held inside, and the noisy sound couldn't help but rush into his ears and into his brain, making him very irritable.

I can't understand what the mother concubine is doing for what purpose, Mu Zhao doesn't suspect that the poisoning is fake, but it is not necessarily aimed at his father, he knows his mother very well, and there is no benefit to the act of murdering his father, it is simply a stupid person's whimsy, how unbelievable.

In the next cell, Master Yuan sat on a stone bed covered with straw with his hands in his hands, his mind was a mess, and the green tendons in the corners of his forehead were swollen and throbbing, which could not be relieved no matter how he pressed and rubbed.

Lord Yuan's heart seemed to have fallen from Gao Tongshang into a deep valley, and there was a sense of depression and coldness all over his body.

I don't understand, I can't figure it out, I can't guess why Yuan Guifei did this, I obviously didn't say that at the time, yes, Lord Yuan knew what Yuan Guifei was about to do, because the medicine powder was handed over to Yuan Guifei through his own hands, it was only a chronic medicine powder, he just wanted to give a lesson, or human life, so he carelessly agreed to Yuan Guifei's private revenge.

All the Yiqiē was destroyed overnight, and the entire Yuan family will face the most cruel ending, the Yuan family has a sad and helpless face, and the good ones will disappear like this, and the century-old foundation of the Yuan family will eventually collapse, how can you not hate the original and not complain.

Just for a selfish desire, resulting in an irreparable situation, Lord Yuan's whole heart almost stopped, and the good future and himself gradually drifted away, Lord Yuan regretted it very, very much, hated his own disapproval, and he had nothing to say about such a result.

Silently waiting for death to come, Lord Yuan's eyes were bloodshot and his expression was depressed, the whole person looked as if he had aged ten years all of a sudden, and the number of sighs since he entered the prison had increased significantly, and he couldn't extricate himself from his thoughts by taking care of himself, and he was exhausted and painful in the face of reality.
