Chapter 411: Sleepless Night

Wen Xiang subconsciously wiped his face with his hand, and a bright red immediately appeared on his palm. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Blood! That's blood!

Wen Xiang looked up, and saw that Zai Cheng on the pillar had already lowered his head, his face was blurred with flesh and blood, and in some places Sen Sen's white bones were exposed.

"Smack! Syllable! ”

Prince Gong was still beating Zai Cheng hard, and at this time, Zai Cheng had already been beaten into a bloody man, and every time Prince Gong struck him, a blood spot would be raised. At first, whenever the whip fell on Zai Cheng's body, Jae Cheng's body twitched, but after his head was severely whipped by Prince Gong, he stopped moving.

Seeing that Prince Gong was now like whipping a dead corpse, Wen Xiang's heart sank.

I don't know how long it took, Prince Gong stopped the whipping, threw away the whip, and fell to his knees at once.

Probably because of the relationship of breaking free from the force, Prince Gong knelt there with his hands on the ground, and his arms trembled uncontrollably.

"Lord Wang......" Wen Xiang said in a lost voice.

"Hahahaha......" Prince Gong sat on the ground, looked at Zaicheng, who was tied to the pillar and had no sound, turned his back to the sky, and laughed with tears.

Wen Xiang looked at Prince Gong in horror, and his hands and feet were cold for a while.

"This time...... You should be satisfied...... Prince Gong said to himself with a maniacal laugh, and then began to cry.

"Weng Tongyi's Diary":

"On the twenty-fourth day (i.e., January 1, 1875), it was sunny and Yin Xuan came to visit Lan Sheng to talk. That is, he entered the city to take a rest, and he was suddenly summoned before he woke up, and there was no one in the city. Time sets, there are Qingdun, Gongdi, Bao, Shen, Yinggui, Chonglun, Wenxi entered together, saw the queen mother of the two palaces in the Xinuan Pavilion, at first glance it collapsed this morning, the sky was shocked, crying for a long time, and the two palaces also cried and could not speak. When the ministers of the inner court continued, they wept and retreated. Reading the pulse case, the six veins of the cloud are all lost, and they collapse in the middle of the night. Xuzheng, the two palaces summoned the ministers to enter, how about the curtain after that? Among the cardinals, the Sect Society is important, please choose the meritocracy. Then beg to hang the curtain. The oracle said: Wenzong has no second son, now this change, if the heir is really unwilling, the young can be educated, now a word is decided, never change, I am the same heart, you and so on. That is, it is said that so-and-so. The king of Wei Shi Jun was shocked and cried when he touched his head, fell to the ground unconscious, and couldn't get up. After the ministers accepted the decree, they went down to the military aircraft to draw up the decree, and Pan Boyin intended to declare the book as the heir of Wen Zong, and he lived up to the trust of the great bank, so he used the two to make a decision. Hai Zheng asked to see and handed over the will, and the Queen Mother responded with tears and retreated. When Fang entered the meeting, Gosh Aiban played the etiquette of welcoming the emperor, the python robe was mended, and he entered the Daqing Gate, and went to the Yangxin Palace to meet the two palaces, and the party was dressed in the apse, and allowed it. Send the former minister and the king of Fujun to greet him with warmth, and Yin Zheng heard the door at the moment, and then a few candles entered the door. The rest of the night did not sleep, five drums out, back to the apartment to check the objects, Chixin out of the city, and then entered. ”

"On the twenty-fifth day, it was cloudy and snowy. Enter the south study. Homo is there. Chenzheng Jixiang Bridge please drive out from the Yuehua Gate, go to the southwest step of the Qianqing Palace, and only the people of the Internal Affairs Office will support and protect the line. Make a small salute. The west is the first to the east. The ministers entered the temple and wept. The minister supported the bed, and saw that the scriptures were embraced by the sky, and he mourned a few times. Retreat to the Qianqing Palace, Jin Kuizi Palace enters, and the Ministry of Industry sets up a curtain. Before the beginning of the big convergence, the main seat is salty, the lid is covered, and the prince enters. After the emperor finished drinking, he ascended to the Zi Palace, entered the table, installed the seat cover, set up the side wall, and did not finish the three quarters. Enter the lama mantra. At the first moment of the Shen Dynasty, the evening sacrifice was performed. The rest of the three-person class was on the platform, and the two study rooms were outside the door, and the Hongde Hall was not the same, and Gongdi thought it was appropriate. Weeping and mourning. After the sacrifice was completed, the cabinet was retreated, the six ministries, Jiuqing, and Han Zhan Kedao were assembled, and the queen mother hung the curtain to listen to the political fold, and did not have time to paint. Raise a child. It was the beginning of the noon of the sun, and there were stars in the west of the sun, and it was suspected that it was too white. Begin to read the edict, mourn the edict, hold the decree of the twenty-seven days, and avoid the last decree of the imperial name. ”

"On the twenty-ninth day, it was sunny and warm. On that day, the edict was given, and the ministers wore filial piety for 100 days, allowing the revocation of the grace decree, allowing the curtain to be curtained, respecting the temple number, and rejecting the purpose of the Three Seas Project of the Old Summer Palace. After the court and noon sacrifices, he still sat in the palace, and the people in the inspection had undesirable colors, and went to Nanzhai to talk with the kings. In the old case, all those who gathered were in the south study, so they had to go back and forth here, if they walked according to the story of the inner court, they did not dare to cross a step, and they had never lifted the curtain for ten years. Feed the sacrifice. …… Follow the ancient system and still serve the three-year purpose. There is a "three-year mourning, up to the Son of Heaven, contained in the Book of Rites, dare not abide by" language, the minister of the pen does not seem to have been deeply examined. …… Zhu pen circled, Jianyuan used the word 'Guangxu'. ”

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

A sedan chair came to the front of Wenxiang's mansion, and as soon as he got off the sedan chair, Wenxiang just came out of the sedan chair, his legs suddenly became weak, and he fainted on the ground.

"Sir! Master! The accompanying butler was shocked, "Someone! Come on, people! ”

……

"Zhongtang? …… Nave? ……”

Wen Xiang heard what seemed to be Lin Yizhe's voice in a trance, and opened his eyes.

Sure enough, in front of him was Lin Yizhe's young and handsome face.

At this time, Lin Yizhe's eyes were full of concern

Kunyu ...... What are you doing here? ......" Wen Xiang asked, his voice faint and hoarse.

"If you go back to the master, it's the little one who invited Master Lin to come over." The housekeeper wiped his tears on the side and choked up, "The master fainted as soon as he returned home, and there was nowhere to ask for a doctor in the middle of the night, and the small one really had no choice, just go to Xianliang Temple and knock on Lord Lin's door......"

After listening to the butler's answer, Wen Xiang understood.

"Seeing that Zhongtang fainted and didn't wake up, the younger generation was anxious, so they had to use some means in vain to make Zhongtang wake up, and if they were rude, they hoped that Zhongtang would forgive their sins." Lin Yizhe was very happy when he saw Wen Xiang wake up.

"I didn't expect you to be proficient in the Dao of Medicine...... Wen Xiang looked at Lin Yizhe with a smile, his face was kind, as if he was looking at his own son.

"It's just that I have some first-aid methods with the Western army of the shipmaster, and I can't talk about being proficient." Lin Yizhe waved his hand again and again and said with a smile.

Since Caiyue died of miasma infection in Taiwan, Lin Yizhe has paid attention to medicine, all Chinese medicine and Western medicine have been involved, and he often teaches famous doctors, so he is now self-taught, but he didn't expect that this time it would come in handy here in Wenxiang.

"Zhongtang entered the Hajj this time, and fainted after coming back, is there something big in the palace?" Lin Yizhe was keenly aware that Wen Xiang seemed to have something hidden when he fainted this time, so he asked a little impatiently.

Wen Xiang sighed and waved his hand to the butler, signaling him to avoid. The housekeeper understood that he had something important to discuss with Lin Yizhe alone, so he immediately retired, left the room, and closed the door.

After the housekeeper walked away, Wen Xiang told Lin Yizhe the real cause of death of Emperor Tongzhi - it was caused by Wang Qingqi and Zaicheng's "prostitution"!

"I didn't expect it to be such an unsubordinated thing that Zai Cheng did!" Wen Xiang remembered the angry appearance of the Empress Dowager Cixi and the vicious eyes when she looked at Prince Gong, and couldn't help but fight a cold war.

"I see." Lin Yizhe listened to Wen Xiang's answer and did not express too much surprise.

As a time-traveler from later generations, he is familiar with the history of the late Qing Dynasty, of course, he knows all kinds of legends about the cause of death of the Tongzhi Emperor who "poor the Son of Heaven came out of smallpox".

Among the many versions of the cause of death, the most widely circulated is the one who contracted syphilis when Emperor Tongzhi visited the kiln and died at a young age.

As far as Emperor Tongzhi is concerned, he was born in the emperor's family, enjoyed the exclusive glory of "the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister", lived a life of "bell ringing and food", and successfully ascended to the emperor's throne without brother competition, which is the comedy of his life. However, Tongzhi also has the tragedy of life.

During the period from the age of 6 to 14, Emperor Tongzhi was the emperor every day, and he went to the Yangxin Palace to pose for a while, and the queen mother of the two palaces listened to the government. He also had to spare half a day to study in the Hongde Hall. Emperor Tongzhi did not receive the education of his strict father since he was a child, and the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother were not educated, so they were not allowed to educate the prince about the essentials of reading. They often did business, passed on meals, and listened to operas in Chonghua Palace, and did not give the Tongzhi Emperor cultural edification. Emperor Tongzhi was playful, did not like to read, "was afraid when he saw a book", was not good at learning, and did not grow. His master taught him to learn to read the recitals, but he was "extremely distracted"; Listening to the lectures, I don't have to pay attention. His companion reading is detailed and inquisitive, which is intended to accompany the reading, motivate each other, and learn from each other, but in fact, he often receives it on his behalf, playing the role of "killing chickens and scaring monkeys". In class, "if you are not energetic, you will be tired, and if you have spirit, you will laugh", and he is really a naughty student. When Emperor Tongzhi was seventeen or eighteen years old, he "couldn't read the folding", and he couldn't even "memorize the "University" in his heart.

As a rebellion against this boring imperial life, the life of Emperor Tongzhi began to become indulgent, and he was both close to women, good at manhood, or wearing micro-clothes. Wang Qingqi of the imperial history gave him "novel obscene words, secret drama albums, and Diyi addicted". He often went to the wine shops, theaters, and flower alleys outside Chongwen Gate. The wild history records: "The servants Xiaoliuru, Chunmei, and the prostitutes are all invited." There is also a wild history record that the Tongzhi Emperor favored the eunuch Du Zhixi and his sister: "There is a eunuch Du Zhixi, like a girl, the emperor is lucky." The tin has a sister, and the solid goldfish pond is also prostitute. It is even more induced by the emperor. From drowning in color, I gradually forgot to return. "According to records: Prince Yi once cried and admonished him to travel in micro-clothes, and Emperor Tongzhi asked where he heard it? Prince Alcohol was stunned. He also summoned Prince Gong Yixin and asked who he was listening to about Weixing? Answer: "The courtier is carrying Cheng." "Tongzhi micro-line, boiling, can neither be credulous to say that it exists, nor can it categorically say that it does not.

And this time Lin Yizhe learned the truth about the cause of Emperor Tongzhi's death from Wen Xiang's mouth, although compared to the "devastation" death in history, this time Emperor Tongzhi's "exhaustive death" is obviously much luckier, but as a companion, Prince Gong's son Zaicheng and Yushi Wang Qingqi are still the culprits for the early death of Emperor Tongzhi!

"In this way, although the current Queen Mother takes into account the face of the court and will not pursue it for a while, she will also find an opportunity to settle this account in the future." Lin Yizhe understood why Wen Xiang was worried, sighed, and said, "I'm afraid that the life of the prince will be sad in the future." ”

"Exactly! The Queen Mother's knot is no longer difficult to untie. Wen Xiang also sighed, "If the sixth master is not in place, I am afraid that you and I will have a hard time in the future......"

"It's just that I don't know what the prince will do with Zaicheng?" Lin Yizhe asked.

"Zai Cheng was already angry with the prince and killed him with his own hands." As soon as Prince Gong remembered the bloody scene of father and son killing each other, he gasped, "I saw it with my own eyes at the prince's place, and I was frightened before I ......."

"Zhongtang is saying that Zai Cheng has been killed by the prince with his own hands?" When Lin Yizhe heard this, his eyes instantly emitted a strange light.

"Yes! The prince whipped Zai Cheng to death with a whip! The blood was all over my face! At this time, Wen Xiang still had palpitations in his heart, and his voice couldn't help but tremble.

"That being the case, the big thing is decided! The prince and Zhongtang can be worry-free in the future! Lin Yizhe said loudly with some excitement, and almost jumped up from his chair.

"What did you say?" Wen Xiang didn't understand what Lin Yizhe meant, and asked with some surprise.

"Zhongtang doesn't have to worry, the queen mother's knot can be solved, and the prince can be in place." Lin Yizhe said with a smile, "I heard the words of Zhongtang, and I was originally worried that the prince would protect his shortcomings, but the prince could do such a strong man's broken wrist, what a husband!" ”

"Kunyu means to ......" Wen Xiang somewhat understood what Lin Yizhe said, his face showed excitement, his condition seemed to improve all of a sudden, and he actually stood up upright from the bed.

"The younger generation thinks that if this is not the case, the prince is in danger! And if the prince is in danger, the overall situation of foreign affairs will be bad! Lin Yizhe said, "Now the prince killed Zaicheng with his own hands, in order to thank the emperor for the spirit in the sky, the queen mother is the most affectionate, when she hears the news, she knows that the prince feels guilty in her heart, and she will no longer blame the prince, then the prince can be content with the throne, and even more honored, it is not known!" In this way, the overall situation of foreign affairs will be determined! ”

Wen Xiang listened to Lin Yizhe's words, like drinking ice and snow, and immediately felt relaxed.

"In this way, bad things have become good things...... Wen Xiang sighed, "It's really a blessing for Sai Weng to lose his horse!" ”

While the two were talking, the butler came back and knocked lightly on the door outside.

"Master, Lord Lin's servant came from Xianliang Temple and said that Prince Gong's Mansion sent someone to invite." The butler said.

Wen Xiang looked at Lin Yizhe and nodded slowly.

"Zhongtang is good to recuperate, and the younger generation will go over to see Prince Gong." Lin Yizhe got up and said.

"Kunyu, go quickly! When you're done, come back and talk to me. Wen Xiang said.

Lin Yizhe saluted Wen Xiang and said goodbye, and went straight to Prince Gong's mansion.

When Lin Yizhe arrived at Prince Gong's mansion, it was getting late, and as soon as he entered Prince Gong's mansion, he immediately smelled a strong smell of blood.

At this time, Prince Gong's mansion was in chaos, and the servants and maids were all panicked, and Lin Yizhe, under the guidance of the palace housekeeper, came to the house where Zaicheng was imprisoned.

At this time, the door was still open, and a group of guards and servants knelt on the ground, and they did not dare to come out.

In the room, there was a faint sound of women crying.

Lin Yizhe stepped into the house, and at first glance, he saw the corpse of Zai Cheng lying on the ground without a human form.

A young woman was stroking the corpse and weeping bitterly.

Prince Gong sat on the ground with a blank expression, and on his right hand side was a four-sided leather whip stained with flesh and blood.

Seeing this leather whip, Lin Yizhe's heart couldn't help but shrink.

He could imagine what kind of pain Zaecheng experienced when he died.

In his original time and space, as a counselor, he needed to work with a wide variety of clients. I also know a myriad of strange cases that many people don't know about.

Among his clients, there is a woman, she has sadistic tendencies, but married a masochistic husband, the two often play SM at home, as a result of one overplay, the woman was excited, and even used a whip to beat her husband to death (Lin Yizhe broke out in a cold sweat after listening to her story, and decisively called the police).

According to her confession to the police, this is an antique bought by the man and given to her as a birthday gift......

Lin Yizhe never imagined that after traveling through time and space, he would actually witness the same "case" in this era!

"Lord Wang......" Lin Yizhe came to Prince Gong's side and called softly.

Prince Gong turned his head mechanically, looked at Lin Yizhe, and suddenly grinned and laughed.

"Look at ......" Prince Gong pointed to Zaicheng lying on the ground, "I beat him to death, the emperor this time...... With a companion, you know, he's ...... The Queen Mother's hand-selected companion ...... With him by his side, the emperor will not be lonely......"

As he spoke, he burst out laughing, laughing and laughing, and tears flowed down his cheeks.

At this time, Prince Gong had already fallen into madness, and he couldn't tell whether he was crying or laughing.

The woman turned her head in horror, looked at Prince Gong, and stopped crying.

Lin Yizhe recognized her at this time as Princess Rongshou, the daughter of Prince Gong, and he settled down, got up and came to Zaicheng's corpse, and bowed deeply respectfully.

Seeing Lin Yizhe's strange movements, Prince Gong laughed even louder.

Lin Yizhe looked at Princess Rongshou and bowed silently, Princess Rongshou was stunned for a moment, and then returned the salute.

Lin Yizhe turned around and came to Prince Gong and bowed deeply.

"The prince is brave and resolute, and he will be safe in the future if he does this act of breaking his wrist by a strong man!"

Listening to Lin Yizhe's words, Prince Gong's laughter stopped abruptly.

Although he looked at Lin Yizhe blankly and didn't say a word, the crazy expression on his face had disappeared.

"People can't be resurrected after death, and I ask the prince to mourn." Lin Yizhe understood that this sentence had already woken up Prince Gong, and he waved it again and said, "I also hope that the prince will take state affairs first, so take care." ”

Prince Gong took a deep breath and nodded.

"Now that the power is in the hands of the prince, the prince must make a plan early, and he must not miss the opportunity." Lin Yizhe said again.

"Thank you Kunyu for waking up." Prince Gong said, giving Lin Yizhe a deep bow.

"The younger generation didn't do anything, everything is the king's decision!" Lin Yizhe said with some trepidation, waved his hand again and again, hid to the side and bowed deeply, resolutely refusing to accept Prince Gong's salute.

"Come on, Fang'er, send Kunyu for me." Prince Gong said calmly.

Princess Rongshou answered, got up and came to Lin Yizhe with a slight blessing, Lin Yizhe bowed and returned the salute, he noticed that Princess Rongshou in front of him looked old, not like twenty people at all, and couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
