Chapter 730: Straight Ahead

Liu Xiu followed Liu Yunshuang into the palace, walked through the silent crowd, and slowly walked up to the main hall in full view of everyone. Pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info (. someone rushed over and led him to the coffin of the queen mother, who often presented filial piety clothes, and Liu Xiu put on filial piety clothes on the palace.

Tai Chang shouted: "Kneel-"

Liu Xiu took a step back and fell to his knees. Wang Chu and the others also knelt on the ground in order. Xiao Tianzi next to the coffin also turned around, but he didn't kneel, just knelt and sit, his eyes were slightly tight, looking at Liu Xiu who was expressionless, and he glanced at Wang Chu who was kneeling behind Liu Xiu and Liu He beside her in a complicated mood.

"Kowtowβ€”"

Liu Xiu put his hands on the ground, bent down, and knocked his forehead on the ground with a bang, his voice was really loud, much louder than Liu Yunshuang's kowtow just now, and the little Tianzi was stunned, and even the celebrant was too often startled, and instinctively worried that the floor on the hall would not be cracked by him.

"Ahem!" Lu Zhi coughed lightly and reminded Tai Chang to come over. Taichang was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly shouted loudly: "Knock again, knock three times, cry - "

Liu Xiu kowtowed three times, but then he didn't cry, but stood up and stood there straight. Taichang was stunned for a moment, and then shouted loudly with a weak heart: "King Chu, don't you know the etiquette of the minister, the queen mother has abandoned the world, and all the people are crying, you come to worship the queen mother, why don't you cry, is it disrespectful to the queen mother?" ”

Liu Xiu ignored him, walked to the coffin of the Queen Mother, and walked forward slowly, while walking, he looked sideways at the coffin depicting the dragon and phoenix, and wearing the coffin painted with jing beautiful silk. The ministers who were wiping their tears and were about to accompany the crying looked at his posture. Knowing that the show was on, he couldn't help but hold his breath and looked at Liu Xiu intently.

Liu Xiu walked around the coffin for most of the time, and finally stopped in front of Xiao Tianzi. Xiao Tianzi was originally sitting on his knees, but when he looked at him so condescendingly, he suddenly felt as if a mountain had pressed down. He wanted to stand up, but his body was a little disobedient. The hands in the sleeves were cold, the palms were sweaty, and the hairs on both arms stood up. Shivering.

Liu Xiu looked at him for a moment, then looked away and turned to the face of Song Feng, the great general behind Xiao Tianzi. He arched his hands. He bowed: "The general's day mourns." ”

Song Feng had already received the news from Cao Cāo, and knew that Liu Xiu was going to take advantage of the death of the Queen Mother to attack the Son of Heaven, but he would notβ€”at least not hurt the interests of the Song family for the time being, so although he was a little nervous and his expression was a little stiff now, he would not lose his temper. He returned the salute: "Your Highness should do the same." ”

"General, when the Queen Mother was alive, she took a lot of care of me. It can be said that without the care of the Queen Mother, I Liu Xiu would not be where I am today. Therefore. The grace of the Queen Mother, I will never forget, and my Chu Wangfu will never forget. ”

Song Feng nodded again and again, breathing a sigh of relief. Liu Xiu said this in front of so many people, then the wealth of the Song family would be guaranteed.

Zi listened quietly. But a strange feeling welled up in my heart. I will never forget, you know what this woman has done to you and my father and son for the sake of her own glory and wealth, and for her own selfishness. Now, isn't it this woman who is killing each other between father and son? You're still in the dark. It's a big joke to be grateful to her. In vain, you are smart all your life, but you are played with by a woman.

"The Queen Mother abandoned the world and left, I burned all the inside, grief-stricken, and I rushed from Jiangling with my family to mourn in front of the Queen Mother's spirit." Liu Xiu spoke very quickly and not loudly, but he could make the people next to him hear it clearly. "In addition to grief, I don't know if there is something I don't understand, I don't know if the general may solve my confusion?"

"Your Highness, please speak."

"General, the Song family has been pushed up for another ten generations, but someone died suddenly and untimely due to a strange illness?"

Song Feng thought for a while and shook his head: "Don't hide it from Your Highness, although the Song family doesn't dare to say that they are rich and noble, but the family background is still passable, except for some children who were born weak and died early, there are no early deaths due to strange diseases, let alone the word sudden." ”

"That means that the Song family doesn't have any ancestral strange diseases or anything like that?"

"Nope."

"Well, I still want to ask, how is the Queen Mother's health after she comes back from Yanzhou? When was the last time you saw her, and did you see what kind of illness she had? ”

Song Feng shook his head again: "Since she came back from Yanzhou, she has been in good health. I had seen her the day before she died, and I didn't see anything out of the ordinary. ”

"So, the Queen Mother died suddenly, and there was no warning?"

Song Feng hesitated: "That's true." ”

Liu Xiu narrowed his eyes and glanced around: "Where is the Imperial Doctor's order?" ”

The Imperial Physician ordered hurriedly out of the ranks.

"When the Queen Mother dies, can someone from the Imperial Doctor's Department be on call?"

The Imperial Physician Ling shook his head: "The Imperial Physician Department received the news that when she arrived at Changle Palace, the Queen Mother was already exhausted, so she did not go to the clinic. ”

"Who confirmed that the Queen Mother was already angry?"

"Yes, the minister." Imperial Physician Ling turned around and pointed at a few people: "They are also present, and there are records of all of us signing and drawing, and Your Highness can check them at any time." ”

Imperial Physician Yoshimoto stepped forward and presented a record book with both hands, Liu Xiu took it, looked at it carefully, and returned it to him. Then he asked: "Then when you examined the body of the Queen Mother, did you find anything abnormal and understand the cause of her death?" There's not a word on this record. ”

The Imperial Physician Ling became a little nervous, turned his head and glanced at Xiao Tianzi, and stopped talking. Liu Xiu snorted coldly: "Lone is asking you, what are you looking forward to, is there something unseemly?" ”

The imperial doctor made his heart nervous, and was almost frightened by Liu Xiu's drink, and knelt on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed again and again: "Minister...... I don't know. ”

"If you don't know the cause of death, you dare to break the Queen Mother's anger? If the Queen Mother was only out of breath for a while, but died because you failed to heal in time, then what ...... Hum! ”

Liu Xiu's sneer was like a muffled thunder, which frightened those imperial doctors one by one, they knelt on the ground, kowtowed again and again, and after a while, their foreheads were full of blood, but they didn't dare to say a word. These imperial doctors were present at the time, and of course they knew that the Empress Dowager Song died of a slap in the chest, and she was definitely killed. But the Son of Heaven issued a gag order forbidding them to say it, how dare they say it.

Liu Xiu turned around and looked at Song Feng: "General, it seems that the death of the Queen Mother is not so simple, there is something strange in this." ”

Song Feng's face was red for a while and white for a while. How did he not know that there was a trick in this, but he didn't have Liu Xiu's strength, so he didn't dare to question Xiao Tianzi. In his opinion. It is impossible for Xiao Tianzi to kill the Empress Dowager Song, if he doesn't say it, there must be something unspeakable. As for where this unspeakable mystery is. He couldn't figure it out. Now that Liu Xiu is forcing the imperial doctor in front of everyone to confirm that there is a hidden secret in the death of the Empress Dowager Song, he can't help but be a little nervous, hoping that Liu Xiu can find out the truth, but also afraid that Liu Xiu is just using this matter to attack Xiao Tianzi and want to replace him. Even if Liu Xiu promised not to hurt the wealth of the Song family, after all, it was still a little emperor with the blood of the Song family who was in power to benefit them more.

Liu Xiu walked back to Xiao Tianzi: "Your Majesty, the death of the Queen Mother is unknown, there must be a hidden secret." If it is not ascertained, the Queen Mother's spirit in heaven will not be able to rest in peace. Ministers are courageous. Please ask Your Majesty to open the coffin, and then check the body of the Queen Mother to verify the truth of her death. ”

"Shut up!" Lu Zhi stepped forward, stopped in front of the coffin, and looked at Liu Xiu: "The Queen Mother has been gathering for a while. If the coffin is opened, the body of the Queen Mother will soon be **. Moreover, opening the coffin for an autopsy is disrespectful to the Queen Mother, how can it be so rash? ”

Liu Xiu raised his eyebrows, a little incredible. "That Lu Gong thought. Let the Queen Mother die in vain, knowing that there may be a murderer at large, but not avenging her blood hatred, is it a respect for her? ”

Lu Zhiqiang argued: "The body of the Queen Mother has been checked before entering the coffin, and the records are on the record, you can go to see it, why do you want to open the coffin to disturb the Queen Mother?" ”

"If Duke Lu says so, then I want to ask, what did the Queen Mother die for?" Liu Xiu's face was indifferent, and he was already a little impatient. "If Lu Gong knows, then please answer Lone's question, if not, Lone has to ask, Lu Gong has repeatedly blocked Lone from asking the truth, what is his intention."

On the main hall, the respect and humility of the monarch and the minister are the most important, the friendship between teachers and students should be put aside, Liu Xiu faced his teacher and asked bluntly as a vassal king, others didn't think there was anything wrong, even if he felt that Liu Xiu's tone was a little too rude, he was also attracted by the truth of the death of the Empress Dowager Song, and he didn't have the heart to pay attention to it for a while.

Lu Zhi was speechless, this matter was not clear in the first place, the reason why he didn't ask it before was just that no one dared to ask. When someone jumps out and makes him unable to suppress with his identity, this problem becomes an unavoidable problem.

Just when Lu Zhi was at a loss, Xiao Tianzi stood up and said in a light tone: "It is reasonable for the King of Chu to know the truth. Opening the coffin for an autopsy and disturbing the body of the Queen Mother is inevitably a little inappropriate. In this way, the question of the king of Chu, I will answer it, can I? ”

Liu Xiu went around in circles for a long time, the purpose was to wait for this sentence, his eyes tightened at the moment, and he sneered: "When I heard that the Queen Mother died, His Majesty was the only one in front of him, and if I want to say that I can explain this matter clearly, it really has to be Your Majesty." The Queen Mother is the mother of Her Majesty, and Presumably Her Majesty is also angry about the death of the Queen Mother, and will not tolerate the Jiān people. If you can make it clear to the minister, the minister is naturally grateful. ”

Zi raised his eyebrows, as if he wanted to laugh, but he didn't laugh. He glanced at Lu Zhi, and then looked at the general Song Feng: "The matter involves the royal **, it is not appropriate to have so many eyes and ears, please ask Lu Gong to arrange for the ministers to go out for a while, and after I discuss the results with the King of Chu, I will give them an answer, and they will be satisfied." General, you are the father of the Queen Mother, and you must be very concerned about this matter, so let's follow along. ”

Lu Zhi sighed, knowing that he was powerless to stop him, so he could only nod his head and drive the ministers out of the palace who wanted to see the result. Those people saw that the truth was about to be revealed, but they were going to be kicked out, and they could not witness it, so they could only listen to the official news when the time came, and they were very angry in their hearts. They are all people who mix in the officialdom, don't they know the success of this official news. However, what the Son of Heaven said is also reasonable, it involves the royal **, and there must be a limit to curiosity, otherwise it is really difficult to say what the result will be.

The ministers went out, even Wang Chu and they all went out, and only Liu Xiu, Song Feng and Xiao Tianzi were left in the palace, and there was a Queen Mother Song lying in a coffin.
