Chapter 771: Imperial Poison Wine
The atmosphere in the carriage was awkward, and it wasn't until the three of them entered the palace gate that Gu Chengyu spoke again.
"Sister Yanran, Brother Qin, I only entered the palace this time to visit my mother, so I said goodbye first."
"Say hello to Concubine Hai for us."
Wei Yanran watched Gu Chengyu enter the harem alone from another palace gate, turned his head and sighed.
"After all, I'm still young."
Qin Yenan raised his hand next to her and stopped her shoulder, and rubbed it twice vigorously.
"He's still young, it's all in time. However, after this change, I will grow no matter how I say it. Besides, the two of us will not look crooked when we look at this child. Daughter-in-law, you always have a heart that can't be, and sometimes you have to rest, don't be too tired, otherwise I will feel distressed. ”
Wei Yanran pressed her hand on the back of the man's hand, turned her head, smiled lightly, and there was a touch of coquettishness between her eyebrows.
"When you were as old as the Twelve Princes, you were still pretending to be stupid outside, playing the role of a gentleman, but now you are in charge of me."
Qin Yenan scratched his head and smiled when he heard this, looked at the palace people in front of him who were leading the way with their heads down, and said something aggrieved.
"Outside, Mrs. will give me some face, if others hear this, it will make people laugh."
Wei Yanran smiled and stopped talking, she looked down at the fold in her hand, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared.
And at this moment, the head of the palace came over.
He first sent the palace people who led the way, and then saluted the two of them.
"The old slave has been waiting for a long time, please come with me first."
Wei Yanran and Qin Yenan followed behind the chief steward and bypassed the main hall and came all the way to the door of the imperial study.
The steward turned and saluted the two of them a second time.
"Please also ask the prince and the princess to be here for a while, and the old slave will go in and say goodbye."
After a few breaths, the voices of two people could be heard in the imperial study.
"Your Majesty, the prince and the princess of the Yasukuni Mansion have come to return to their lives."
"Let them in."
The Emperor's voice was hoarse, with a hint of impatience.
When Wei Yanran and Qin Yenan walked into the imperial study, they found that in just a few days, His Majesty the Emperor's hair was much whiter than a few days ago.
As soon as he saw the two of them come in, the emperor waved his hand and beckoned the chief steward, but before he could finish speaking, he clutched his chest and coughed.
"The gift is waived, and the two Aiqing are given ...... Give me a seat, ahem, ahem! ”
"Your Majesty is unwell? Have you seen a doctor? ”
Wei Yanran frowned and looked at the emperor's somewhat pale face, and a bad premonition gradually rose in her heart.
And the father-in-law of the chief steward on the side answered her words.
"What happened before made His Majesty's heart hang all the time, and he was frightened, and he contracted a cold a few days ago, so he coughed and was not a serious illness. Thank you for your concern. ”
"Although the wind chill is not a serious illness, but it is better to pay more attention, a few days ago the Yasukuni Mansion got a century-old ginseng, this time we entered the palace and brought it together, so I bothered my father-in-law to get it."
Wei Yanran said this and glanced at the emperor.
And the emperor took a deep breath at this time, looked up at the chief steward, waved his hand, and then pressed his eyebrows with his hand, obviously in a bad mood.
The father-in-law of the chief steward pushed aside and took the fold that Qin Yenan handed over a long time ago.
"Your Majesty, the affairs plotted by the five princes have been investigated clearly, and everything has been recorded in this excerpt, and the human and material evidence has also been transferred to the Criminal Department, please read it carefully."
The emperor looked at the fold handed by his father-in-law, and hesitated for a long time before taking it.
He looked at the words on the fold, and suddenly his eyes were slightly red, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
Time passed bit by bit, and the needles could be heard in the imperial study.
After nearly a stick of incense, the emperor's action of holding the fold finally changed.
He closed the fold and sighed with emotion.
"Everyone is father and son, why is this?"
Wei Yanran and Qin Yenan glanced at each other. "Your Majesty's condolences."
"That's it, it's come to this, it's useless to say more. Let's just draw it up. ”
The emperor sighed at this point.
"Give the five princes a glass of wine, but let's do it. However, in view of the fact that the five princes worked hard for the country and the people before, and he and I were father and son after all, so we would not deprive him of his title, and allowed him to be engraved into the imperial tomb after his death. Those who accompanied the conspirators were punished with hard labor and sent to the frontier. The prince himself went to announce the decree, but there was any objection? ”
After hearing this, Qin Yenan hurriedly knelt down to accept the order.
"The minister respectfully obeys His Majesty's royal decree."
The ending of King Yong was thus decided, but the punishment of Gu Chengyuan, the king of An, was not mentioned.
Wei Yanran was a little unsure of what kind of medicine was sold in the emperor's gourd, so she planned to leave the palace with Qin Yenan.
And when Wei Yanran was about to go out with Qin Yenan, the emperor suddenly opened his mouth and left Wei Yanran behind.
"Princess Shizi, I am worried about the safety of Concubine Hai, so you can go to Concubine Hai's palace with me."
"Your Majesty invited, but the minister was disrespectful."
Wei Yanran responded to the invitation and went to Concubine Hai's bedroom with the emperor's chariot.
But along the way, Wei Yanran's head kept turning.
What the Emperor is doing today is something different than usual.
According to what she knew about this old emperor, she could almost be called a person who would repay her.
Compared with the reason why the name of King Yong is still in the family tree, it is also for his own reputation.
Since ancient times, emperors have been affectionate, how many can be exceptions?
Just when Wei Yanran was thinking wildly, the emperor suddenly spoke.
"I remember that you sent a doctor into the palace because you were worried about Concubine Hai's injury, but your surname is Bai?"
"Exactly." Wei Yanran was confused when she heard this.
What did the old emperor do when he mentioned Doctor Bai?
Could it be that after so long, you are still ready to wait for an opportunity to retaliate?
The emperor asked again, "Is his ancestor on duty in the Tai Hospital?" ”
"Exactly."
Wei Yanran felt that there was nothing to hide in this matter, so she told the truth.
After all, at this time, she can't afford to be accused of bullying the king.
"Then he is the son of Bai Yizheng, the first judge of the Tai Hospital?"
"Exactly." Wei Yanran responded, but she really didn't expect the old emperor to say such a thing next.
"This Doctor Bai is quite skillful, his medical skills are exquisite, and after his treatment, the concubine's condition has improved again and again. Now that he has entered the palace, let him be on duty in the Tai Hospital in the future. As for whether he can find a way for himself, it depends on his own creation. ”
After the emperor said this, he slapped the chariot of his hand.
"Stop, I want to go down for a walk."
