"Not yet!" Empress Dowager Xu waved her hand and said, "If the 'emperor' suddenly dies like this, I'm afraid that the mourning family will not be able to explain to the ministers!" ”

After thinking about it, Empress Dowager Xu said: "Now you go and get a Heding red mixed with aphrodisiacs and pour it into this thief, and then send it back to the Heart Cultivation Palace."

Then go to Xuan and a few concubines to go to the 'bed' tonight, so that the 'emperor' suddenly died suddenly due to excessive bed, and it is over! ”

"Also, after you are busy with this, you immediately go to spread the edict of the mourning family, and King Xuan Anping and the old lady Zhou will enter the palace to see the mourning family!"

King Anping, a compatriot of the former Emperor Yongkang.

If Zhang Lingyang dies suddenly, and the prince is less than a year old, King Anping is the one who is most qualified to win the dragon chair.

As for the old lady Zhou in the mouth of Empress Dowager Xu, it was Zhou Hexiang, the teacher of the former Emperor Yongkang.

After Emperor Yongkang succeeded to the throne, he named his teacher Zhou Hexiang as his master and ordered him to teach his son Zhao Chenxi in person.

It was not until Zhao Chenxi ascended the throne that Zhou Hexiang resigned and went into hiding.

As the emperor of the two dynasties, Zhou Hexiang's qualifications and prestige are unmatched in the court.

Even Zhang Zhiyuan, who was appointed as an auxiliary minister by Emperor Yongkang, cannot be compared with it.

How could such a virtuous and respected minister get involved in this dispute?

It all started three months ago.

Three months ago, a thief suddenly broke into Zhou Hexiang's home, saying that there was something important to inform Zhou Hexiang.

Zhou Hexiang only said this when the thief who broke into his house wanted to live, and he was about to order someone to escort the thief to the government.

"The first master of my family is Wang Qin!" But he didn't want to, the thief suddenly shouted like this.

"What did you say?" Zhou Hexiang hurriedly stopped everyone, looked at the thief and asked, "But the dead eunuch Wang Qin?" ”

"Exactly!" The thief hurriedly nodded and said, "The villain used to be the guardian of the prince's family, and now there is a big thing to tell Lord Taifu!" ”

"What's the matter?" Zhou Hexiang asked.

"There are a lot of people!" The thief just glanced at the crowd around him and kept silent.

It wasn't until Zhou Hexiang dismissed everyone that the thief said: "Now the person on the dragon chair is not the Son of Heaven at all!" ”

As soon as the thief said this, Zhou Hexiang was stunned.

The thieves ignored it, and told Wang Qin how he found Zhang Lingyang, who looked exactly like the Son of Heaven, on the street, and told Zhang Lingyang about sending him to the palace one by one.

Finally, the thief said: "Less than two days after the prince sent that guy into the palace, a fire broke out in the palace of the heart cultivation, and the prince was also buried in the fire.

Moreover, at that time, there was an unknown person who was buried in the fire with the prince.

The villain suspects that he is the real son of heaven! ”

The thief said so firmly, but Zhou Hexiang still didn't believe it, and asked, "What evidence do you have to prove everything you said?" ”

The thief smiled bitterly: "Lord Taifu also looks up to the villain too much, the villain is just a martial artist, and he has never even entered the palace, how can he prove it to Lord Taifu?" ”

Looking up at Zhou Hexiang's face, the thief immediately changed his words and said, "However, Lord Taifu, through some clues, the villain can still point out the suspicions of the one on the dragon chair now." ”

"Oh?" Zhou Hexiang paused, "Let's talk about it!" ”

The thief said: "The villain heard that His Majesty fell into the water and lost his memory on the second day of the fire in the Heart Cultivation Palace, I don't know if there is such a thing?" ”

"It's true!" Zhou Hexiang nodded.

The thief sneered and said, "The villain once heard the prince say that the Son of Heaven has excellent water quality, how could he lose his memory because of falling into the water?"

This is the first suspicion!

The second suspicion is that after that day, the temperament of the Son of Heaven changed greatly. In the past, although the Son of Heaven acted a little absurdly, he also knew the priority of things.

But now this person on the dragon chair, how did he act, hadn't Master Taifu heard of it?

As for the third suspicion, the villain heard that now the person on the dragon chair can't even write.

Therefore, judging from the above three doubts, the villain dares to conclude that this person on the dragon chair must be a fake genius! ”

"Although these doubts you said are worth considering, why should the old man believe you?

Besides, no matter how many doubts there are, they can't shake Your Majesty in the slightest, don't you know? Although Zhou Hexiang listened to the thief's words a little, none of these evidences could prove that the one on the dragon chair was a fake genius.

After all, Zhang Lingyang's exact appearance with Zhao Chenxi is the most powerful evidence for him.

The thief also seemed to understand this, and said with a wry smile: "How can the villain not understand this?" But unless you can find a birthmark or something on the current person to prove it, this is obviously not realistic. ”

"There is one thing that the old man doesn't understand, you said that you are so hard to alarm the old man, but whether the one on the dragon chair is real or not, and what does it have to do with you?" Zhou Hexiang stared at the thief and asked.

"Why doesn't it matter?" The thief laughed and said: "Although the villain does not know how to write and ink, he also knows the truth that the soldier dies for his confidant."

Originally, the villain was just a prodigal, but he was not abandoned by the prince and summoned to the door wall, so great kindness, how could the villain not repay it? ”

Glancing at Zhou Hexiang again, the thief sneered and said: "It's you, Mrs. Zhou, as the emperor of the two dynasties, who has suffered the emperor's grace, even if you know that the one on the dragon chair is very likely to be fake, you can ignore it in order to keep your glory and wealth."

Do you do this, Taifu, are you worthy of the Son of Heaven and the first emperor? ”

"I knew that I would encounter this situation today, and the master would be dead, and I wouldn't tell you about it!" As he spoke, the thief's eyes were full of remorse.

Seeing that the thief dared to scold himself like this, Zhou Hexiang's face turned blue and white for a while, and then he sighed: "How can the old man be indifferent, but there is no direct evidence, what can the old man do?"

Today's events, the old man should have never happened, you can go! ”

After speaking, Zhou Hexiang called someone to come in and untie the rope on the thief's body and let him out of the house.

The thief scolded and left Zhou Hexiang's house, wandering around the street for half an hour, until he found that no one was following him, and then came to a small courtyard.

"It's done?" In the small courtyard, a middle-aged man dressed in a foreign suit saw the thief come in and asked.

The thief nodded and said, "This is natural, in a few days, I am afraid that Zhou Hexiang's old husband will enter the palace to meet the Queen Mother." ”

As he spoke, the thief glanced at the middle-aged man and said, "It's time to pay the final payment!" ”

The middle-aged man nodded, took out a silver ticket from his arms, handed it over and said, "This is a silver ticket of 50,000 taels, you can check it." ”

The thief took the silver ticket and looked at it casually, then stuffed it into his arms, and said to himself: "This is a head-killing thing, don't look for the master to do it again in the future!" ”

"There's still a lot to bother you in the future!" The middle-aged man smiled, "However, don't worry, you will definitely add money!" ”

Hearing this, the thief was satisfied......
