Volume 5 The World Collapses Chapter 425 Thunderbolt on a Sunny Day
A rumor suddenly spread in the palace that the imperial concubine who had just returned to the palace was not the blood of the Son of Heaven, but someone else. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info~~ Because it involves the Son of Heaven and the Queen, this rumor spreads very secretly, but no matter how secret the rumor is, with the help of someone who cares, it didn't take much time to reach the ears of the Son of Heaven and Queen Song.
Empress Song took off her crown and clothes at the first time, and sat on a hunger strike in the Jiaofang Palace, the Son of Heaven was furious when he heard the words, and ordered a thorough investigation.
At this moment, He Guiren offered a plan to verify his identity to prove his innocence, as long as it is proved that the emperor's concubine is the bloodline of the Son of Heaven and the queen, then the natural truth will be revealed, and the rumors will not help but extinguish. The Son of Heaven was very angry, but he was also disturbed by the rumors that he had a nose and eyes, and he also wanted to understand, so he adopted the strategy of He Guiren.
Xuanyangzi entered the palace and performed the secret technique of combining blood, what the process was, I don't know, I only know that the Son of Heaven suddenly fainted and urgently summoned the imperial doctor to Shi. Half an hour later, as soon as the Son of Heaven woke up, he ordered the queen's seal to be collected and sent to the court for care, and at the same time issued an edict that the general Song Feng and his family were forbidden to go out and contact with people.
Liu Xiu, who was still in the dark, also received an edict ordering him to enter the palace immediately. Liu Xiu didn't dare to slack off, immediately rushed to the North Palace, and waited outside the Deyang Hall for a while, but he didn't get the edict from the Son of Heaven to summon him to see, and when he was suspicious, Zhang Rang walked over with a little yellow mén with small broken steps, and the little yellow mén was holding a yu bowl in his hand, and there was half a bowl of water in the bowl.
"Zhang Changshi, is this the water that Your Majesty rewarded me?" Liu Xiu made a joke.
Zhang Rangpi shook his head without smiling, flipped his wrist, and showed a silver needle: "General Wei, Your Majesty has an edict to take a drop of your blood." ”
Liu Xiu was very dazed, but he still stretched out his hand very obediently, and let Zhang Rang poke a needle in his finger, squeezing out a drop of blood and falling into the yu bowl, while joking: "What is a drop of blood, when the minister was on the frontier, how many big bowls of blood flowed." ”
Zhang Rang glanced at him, the corners of his mouth chou, didn't say anything, turned around and left.
Liu Xiu shrugged his shoulders in surprise, and said to the guard on duty next to him: "What's wrong with Zhang Changshi, it's mysterious." Although Na Langzhong didn't know the specific situation, he also estimated that it might be related to the recent rumors in the palace, so he didn't dare to say much, so he had to pretend not to hear it. Liu Xiu was even more puzzled after eating a closed soup, but he couldn't say anything, so he had to wait on the sidelines.
After a short time, Zhang Rang came out, stood at the foot of the steps, raised his head, looked at Liu Xiu with his nostrils, stretched his voice, and shouted in a cold scream: "General Wei Liu Xiu listens to the edict-"
Liu Xiu hurriedly bowed to the ground: "General Houwei of Liangxiang and his ministers listen to the edict. ”
"Edict: Liu Xiu returns to the house, close the mén thank you, and you must not associate with anyone without an edict."
Liu Xiu was stunned for a moment, raised his head and looked at Zhang Rang: "Zhang Changshi, this ...... What does this mean? ”
Zhang Rang narrowed his eyes, and his cold eyes seemed to be looking at a dead man: "I don't know what it means, it's just that Your Majesty's edict, my word-for-word edict is, General Wei shouldn't think too much, just accept the edict." ”
Liu Xiu listened to the wrong accent, so he didn't dare to say any more, and bowed to the ground again: "The edict of the minister." ”
"Then let's go back." Zhang Rangyin Yang said angrily, turned around and left. Liu Xiu stood stunned for a moment, and then had to turn around and leave the palace. Several guards in front of the hall glanced at each other, and no one spoke, but their eyes were already clear, and General Wei was finished.
is also said to have an affair with the queen, and actually gave birth to a son who pretended to be the emperor's concubine, if he wants to inherit the throne, this crime can be supported by ordinary people? Alas, the scene when the imperial concubine just returned to the palace is still vivid, who would have thought that it would not take long for it to completely change. This General Wei is really bold enough, and any NV person dares to hook up.
After Liu Xiu returned to the house, he immediately instructed people to collect all the honor guards in front of the mén, and the house mén was closed like an iron bucket, announcing that the mén was closed and the guests were closed, and no one was allowed to go out, and no outsiders were not seen. As soon as Wang Chu saw this posture, he was so frightened that he became embarrassed, and tightly grabbed Liu Xiu's sleeve: "Husband, what happened, this good way to go out of the palace and enter the palace, why did you close the door as soon as you came back?" ”
Liu Xiu shrugged: "I don't know what's going on, Your Majesty asked me to close the mén thank you, and I will close the mén thank you." He momo Wang Chu's hair, and comforted: "It's okay, it's okay, the Son of Heaven does things like this, there is one haunted and one out, maybe it's the same as the last time you were summoned to the palace, teasing me." ”
Wang Chu looked at Liu Xiu and saw that although he was a little dazed, he didn't panic, so he was a little relieved. She was uneasy, and secretly wanted to send someone out to inquire, but she never thought that before anyone left the house, she found that there were Ti cavalry guarding Mén, and the person who led the team was not the one she knew before.
Wang Chu felt the seriousness of the situation, she told Liu Xiu about the situation, Liu Xiu stood in the courtyard for a long time, still couldn't understand, so she had to comfort Wang Chu and said: "There's nothing to be afraid of, what should come will always come, you are pregnant, don't worry too much, the sky is falling, and I will carry my husband." ”
Wang Chu's hands and feet were cold, and his eyes were scattered. When Liu Xiu saw it, he hurriedly helped her into the house and comforted her carefully.
……
In the Deyang Palace, a yu bowl fell into several pieces on the ground, the bloody water was sprinkled everywhere, the Son of Heaven jumped like thunder, stomped his feet and scolded, the emperor's concubine Liu Xie knelt aside, teary eyes, but he didn't dare to step forward to persuade his father, he had just received a slap from the Son of Heaven, and half of his face was swollen.
"Lock him up in the court, lock him up in the court, I don't want to see him again, I don't want to see him again." The Son of Heaven roared, his eyes were red, and he kept waving his sleeves, the crown on his head fell to the ground at some point, his hair spread out, covering half of his face, his skinny hands twitched nervously, and his thin mouth trembled involuntarily.
He ...... He...... How could he be like this, how could he be like this? The Son of Heaven couldn't stop stomping his feet, and his voice was full of tears: "I treat him like a brother, how can he do this, he deceived me, he failed me, I want to kill him, I want to put him to death, I ...... I will destroy his three tribes, I ......"
The Son of Heaven muttered babblingly, turning back and forth in the hall like a raging trapped beast, turning more and more urgently, his body tilted uncontrollably, and finally he was unstable, he tripped himself up, fell to the ground heavily, and even his forehead was broken, and blood flowed.
"Your Majesty!" Zhang Rang was taken aback, and hurriedly stepped forward to help, but saw that the Son of Heaven was trembling, lying motionless on the ground, and he had already fainted. Zhang Rang hurriedly picked up the Son of Heaven and put him on the imperial couch, and asked the imperial doctor who was waiting outside to come in for first aid. The doctors were busy for a while, and the Son of Heaven woke up leisurely, without saying a word, and tears flowed for a long time.
Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong glanced at each other, nodded heartily, and waved to the imperial doctors who were wiping their sweat: "You all go out and wait outside." ”
The imperial doctors only responded, rushed out, and waited in the side hall. Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong walked over, one of them held one of the hands of the Son of Heaven, and called softly: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! ”
"Zhang Gong-" The Son of Heaven looked at Zhang Rang, and then turned his head to look at Zhao Zhong: "Zhao Gong-"
"Your Majesty has temporarily suspended the wrath of thunder, please listen to the minister." Zhang Rang stroked the cold hand of the Son of Heaven and looked at the Son of Heaven earnestly. The Son of Heaven burst into tears, couldn't cry, just nodded.
"Your Majesty, this matter is too important to be leaked, otherwise the royal dignity will be swept away, how will Your Majesty deal with himself in the future?"
There was a gurgling sound in the Son of Heaven's throat, and it was a long time before he nodded. Zhang Rang breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Liu Xiu is rebellious, and he can't be spared lightly if he commits such a big crime of extermination, but it is a matter of royal face, and he can't be dealt with on this charge." In the opinion of the ministers, this matter must be concealed, no one is allowed to say it again, find another reason, remove him from office, and then delay for a while, and it is not too late to kill him. ”
The corners of Tianzi's eyes twitched twice, an unhealthy cháo flush appeared on his cheeks, and his upper body suddenly rose up, and a mouthful of blood sprayed all over Zhang Rang's mouth. Zhang Rang was taken aback, hurriedly hugged the head of the Son of Heaven, and called out repeatedly: "Your Majesty? Your Majesty? ”
"It's ...... Impeachment of him...... Let people impeach him......" The Son of Heaven wilted and moved his fingers.
Let out a long breath, and slowly put the Son of Heaven flat: "Your Majesty, take care, you must not hurt your body because of this rebellion, and abandon the world." ”
The Son of Heaven turned his head, let the tears welling up, waved his hand, and motioned for Zhang Rang to do it. Zhang Rang saluted again, and Zhao Zhong gave a look, the two quietly retreated, standing under the corridor, the two arched their hands, walked side by side in silence, and did not speak for a long time.
Walking to the end of the corridor, the two of them stopped in unison, turned their heads, and met each other's eyes, the two of them look at me, I look at you, and then smiled with a heart.
"This great merit has to be given to He Jin." Zhao Zhong said.
"That's right." Zhang Rang smiled and nodded.
"Please!"
"No, you please!"
"No, it's better for you to ask first!"
"Hahaha......"
"Hahaha......"
……
"What?" He Jin jumped up all of a sudden, rushed to his sister who rushed to report the news with rare agility, and almost shouted: "You say it again." ”
This sister of his, married to Zhang Rang's son, is the most tense connection between him and Zhang Rang. However, due to the strong rise of the Song family, Liu Bian, the son born to He Guiren, saw that there was no hope for the throne, and Zhang Rang slowly thinned this relationship, and he had not been in contact with He Jin for a long time.
He Jin was already desperate for this, he had already acquiesced in the failure of this speculation, and in the face of the Song family and Liu Xiu and Cao Cào behind the Song family, he had no chance, he could only admit that he was unlucky. But he never thought that just when he was already desperate, a great opportunity suddenly fell in front of him.
"Okay, okay, this opportunity has been given to you, whether you can seize it or not depends on your ability. Jia Weng said, now as long as you find a reasonable reason, Liu Xiu will die. Of course, you'd better find a reason to restrain Liu Xiu from dying, so that His Majesty can kill justifiably and without leaving people with a handle. ”
He Jin nodded like a little ji pecking rice, of course he could understand the meaning of this. Liu Xiu has made great contributions to the Son of Heaven, and if the Son of Heaven wants to kill him, he must have enough reasons, otherwise the courtiers who don't know the truth will definitely write a letter to appeal for Liu Xiu, and the Son of Heaven can't make the real reason public, otherwise the royal face will be lost.
What kind of reason can you find to make Liu Xiu's death convincing? He Jin used his brains and thought about it for a long time, but he didn't come up with any good excuses, but he knew where to go for help at this time.
"Prepare a generous gift and go to Situ Mansion."
