Chapter 504 Critically Ill

As soon as Gu Chen's words came out, Gu Qing immediately understood, so he didn't linger long, and disappeared in a flash.

It's like he's never been here.

For the next few days, the emperor said that he was sick and did not go to the court, and the civil and military officials in the court speculated that there were people visiting the sick every day.

Among these people, there are some who want to explore the truth, just like Song Xi and his party such as Zhongshuling, they all want to see what is going on, and the imperial doctors who emerge from the Heart Cultivation Palace will be pulled by countless people to ask questions almost every day, but the imperial doctors who can live in this palace for so many years are not fools, and they naturally know what they can say and what they can't say.

So, no matter who came to ask, the imperial doctor spoke in a unified voice, telling them that the emperor was poisoned, and Lin Dashao couldn't solve it, and now he was busy sending people around to find his grandfather.

After getting the news, as soon as it got dark, Zhongshuling and Zhao Liu quietly entered the door of the Changle County Palace...... from the back door again.

He didn't finish his words, but several people present understood it, and at the same time had the same guess, so they all cast the same gaze at Song Xi.

Song Xi frowned and said, "I don't know this very well, although I have already sent someone to tell Concubine Hua, but this is too fast, right?" Concubine Hua hasn't even lifted the ban, how did she do it? ”

Song Xi didn't know much about the methods of poisoning the Miao Jiang people, so in his opinion, these unknown abilities were too terrifying, and if he took the position in the future, he would definitely not easily provoke these people.

"Don't worry about this, since the emperor really can't get up, and if you can't find Doctor Xiao, I'm afraid that he will die soon, since that's the case, then we don't have to waste any more time." Song Xi said, took out the sword hanging on the side, took a piece of cloth, and wiped it carefully.

The expression was extremely serious, as if he was really bent on polishing his sword.

Several people secretly exchanged glances, and soon fell silent.

In a blink of an eye, the emperor has been sick for seven or eight days, and these days, the emperor's sons go to wait outside the palace every day, wanting to go in to serve the emperor, but they only get one reply: "Your Majesty said, it will be done with the presence of three highnesses, and the other princes and princesses are still young, and their homework cannot be delayed, so they don't have to come to ask for peace every day." ”

The crowd of people had almost never seen the emperor since he was sick, and they couldn't help but speculate.

"Do you think my father is really so sick? Or did the three emperor brothers take the opportunity to control their father and try to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes? The third princess guessed.

"Shh~" The second princess looked left and right and said, "You be quiet, don't let people hear." ”

The third princess pursed her lips disapprenously: "Isn't what I said wrong?" You see, I didn't even see my father's face, and the eunuch who delivered the decree just said, as long as the three emperor brothers are sick, then who knows if it was the father's decree, or the three emperor brothers are making ghosts inside. ”

The rest of the princes and princesses followed behind, secretly exchanging glances one by one, and did not speak.

Soon, there was news that the third prince Song Yu had controlled the emperor's quasi-seizure of the throne, and the government and the opposition suddenly became in a commotion, and many ministers wanted to join forces and knelt outside the Yangxin Palace, asking to see the emperor with their own eyes and confirm whether the emperor was really sick and unconscious.

For a while, the civil and military ministers and princesses and princesses who knelt on the ground outside the Heart Cultivation Palace, Song Xi naturally mixed in the crowd, and he said earnestly: "Father-in-law Pei, since the day I saw the emperor's uncle's illness, no one has been able to enter this heart cultivation hall, so many days have passed, who knows what the situation is in the imperial uncle, we are courtiers, and we are concerned about Your Majesty's safety, if we don't let us see the imperial uncle himself today, we will never leave." ”

"Yes, never to leave!" Everyone said in unison.

Father-in-law Pei's face was slightly gloomy, looking at the large group of people kneeling outside, and his eyes subconsciously glanced at Gu Chen.

Gu Chen just repeated the only sentence these days: "Your Majesty said that your body is weak and needs to recuperate, and you don't want to see so many people." ”

At this time, the third princess said unconvinced: "My father doesn't want to see these ministers, can't he see us?" are also the children of their fathers, why can only the three emperor brothers serve in it? ”

The fifth prince also echoed: "The third emperor sister is right, why can't we even take a look, who knows if the third emperor brother is in it to treat the father emperor, if the father emperor has a case, we are not around, then it is not what the third emperor brother says, we are not convinced." ”

The meaning of the words of the five princes is already very clear, in case the emperor dies, they are not in front of him, and if Song Yuruo says that the emperor is located before his death, it is also dead without proof.

How can these princes be willing?

Although the other princes did not show this emotion, they felt that what the five princes said was not unreasonable, so everyone came along.

It is said that there is no father and son in the heavenly family, and when this happens, these people's minds will be activated, and they will prevent Song Yu from falsely transmitting holy decrees, forging edicts, and even killing their fathers and seizing the throne.

"Commander Gu stopped us here in every possible way and didn't let us in, could it be that he conspired with the Three Emperor Brothers?" The fifth prince asked loudly.

The rest of the ministers also chimed in: "Yes, we must see Your Majesty today." ”

"Even if there are a lot of people here, and my father doesn't want to see them one by one, then it's okay to pick one or two to go in and have a look." The third princess spoke again.

The fifth prince nodded wildly, anyway, he can't be left behind at this time, otherwise, the throne will be won by others.

"After all, we are also the sons of our father, why can't we go in and serve our father? You say that it is the will of the father, so is there any proof? The fifth prince said with reason. txt

"Oh? You want to go in and serve the sick too? Gu Chen glanced at them lightly and asked.

Everyone was a little confused by his eyes, but someone still straightened their necks and said, "Yes, we are going to go in and serve our father." ”

Gu Chen was almost silent, and then, he raised his hand and pointed: "Since the fifth prince is so filial, then you can go in and serve Your Majesty, and the others should go back, Your Majesty is seriously ill and needs to recuperate, so you don't need so many people here." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at the chamberlains on either side.

The chamberlain understood, and immediately stepped forward and dragged the five princes into the Heart Cultivation Palace.

"What are you doing? Daring! Let go of this palace, let go! The fifth prince shouted, almost being carried into the Heart Nourishing Hall by two attendants.

His voice disappeared from the ears of the people as they were lifted into the temple.

The silence of the crowd.

"If there is anyone who wants the princess and prince to go in and serve the sick, just stand up, and the minister will definitely fulfill you." Gu Chen said lightly.

However, after seeing the five princes being carried in so rudely, who would dare to propose to go in.

Immediately, a group of people knelt outside the hall and had a pillar of incense, but the five princes never came out after entering, and those ministers couldn't help but secretly exchange glances, guessing what was going on inside.

At this time, the third princess stood up and said loudly: "This palace also wants to go in to serve my father, but this palace will leave by itself, and you don't need to drag it." ”

As she spoke, the third princess was like a proud peacock, striding towards the Heart Nourishing Hall with her head held high.

However, after the third princess went in, she did not come out again.

The crowd had their necks stretched out on the outside, but they couldn't see inside.

Everyone couldn't help but start beating drums in their hearts, what happened to the third princess and the fifth prince inside? Why is there no movement after entering?

If the emperor is really sick, they should also come out to prove it, otherwise, wouldn't they have to kneel outside all the time?

Gu Chen glanced at everyone, raised the corners of his lips and asked, "If there are any other adults who are going to go in to serve the sick, this commander can consider letting you in at his discretion." ”

The crowd was silent.

A prince and a princess didn't come out again after they went in, obviously their freedom was restricted, at this time, even if they were slow to react, they could see it, Gu Chen said on the surface that they could let them in and fulfill their loyalty to the emperor, but who knows how they would be treated after they entered?

Moreover, judging from Gu Chen's current level of arrogance, he would directly wipe them out.

After thinking about this, the minds of these ministers began to come alive again.

"Since Your Majesty needs to recuperate, then we won't bother here anymore and retire." In the end, it was Zhongshu Ling Ishihara who took the lead in speaking, and as he spoke, he also gave Liu and Zhao two adults.

"Yes, and the third princess and the fifth prince have all entered, and we don't want to trouble Your Majesty here, so we will retire first." Lord Liu also echoed.

Lord Zhao wiped the sweat from his head and nodded frequently.

So, soon, the ministers withdrew from the outside of the Heart Cultivation Hall one after another and walked towards the outside of the palace.

Gu Chen saw that the people were leaving, and explained to the guards on the side: "Hold this place, you can't let people out, and you can't let people in, otherwise, military law will deal with it." ”

"Yes." Several guards answered in unison.

Gu Chen raised his feet and walked outside the palace.

The net has been cast, just waiting for the fish to take the bait.

That night, more ministers took advantage of the night to quietly go to the palace of Changle County, and many people went to the Jiang family, but they couldn't figure out the current situation, and they didn't know what to do next.

Compared with the riots of these courtiers, Gu Chen was in a very good mood, he went to Yuehualou to buy a few snacks that Qin Niang loved to eat, and returned to Qinyuan happily.

Qin Niang was enjoying the cool in the pavilion by the lotus pond, Qiu Tao peeled fruit for her on the side, Qiu Xue took a net to catch fish on the side, and shouted while fishing: "Miss, my uncle is really generous, these fish are not cheap, the slave maid has seen it in the small pond in the palace of the fourth princess before, it is said that one costs fifty taels of silver, and I don't know if it is delicious after a while." ”
