The opening of the witch case was triggered by a poisoning case.|For every two people who watch romance, there is an account that has registered for Ke ° Le ° Xiao ° Say ° Net.

It was the Linglong Pavilion in the backyard of the Five Princes' Mansion, which was specially designed for the pregnant Five Princes and Princesses. Since she was likely to be the first son of the Five Princes and the second grandson of the old Emperor Qianyuanji, this princess received unprecedented attention from the Five Princes' family. Not only was the maid and servant taken care of, but all the food and clothing were even more careful and meticulous.

In order to guard against some "accidents", the princess's daily meals and fetal decoction were also repeatedly checked to ensure that no one was poisoned.

It stands to reason that under such strict precautions, no accidents will occur. But even so, there was still a big problem with the decoction sent by Cuihuan, the personal maid who had followed the princess for six or seven years. Although it has been tested by people, there is no highly toxic ingredient, but it can't stand someone who has changed a special medicinal material, and slightly increased or decreased the amount of other decoctions, so it is easy to turn a good fetal medicine into a fetal medicine, and ordinary people will not have any problems eating it!

If it weren't for the fact that the fifth prince and princess were taking a nap at the time and didn't take it immediately, the imperial doctor came just a moment later, and by mistake found out that the decoction was different, which avoided a tragedy.

When the news spread, the entire Five Princes' Mansion was shaken.

You must know that according to the imperial doctor, the key medicinal herbs added are forbidden drugs in the royal family, which are extremely rare on the market, and they are colorless and tasteless when integrated into the decoction, which is difficult to detect! At this critical time, such a sensitive case suddenly appeared, and anyone had to be suspicious!

Only an hour later, the old emperor got the news. Immediately send someone to strictly inspect it. The cuihuan that delivered the medicine was taken down together with more than a dozen people in the entire medicinal diet, and it was important to find out who was behind the scenes.

A pampered and weak maid. How to survive the big punishment, he quickly explained the method of replacing the drug and the real culprit behind the scenes. Although the people in the middle have been eliminated, the investigation has been interrupted for a while. But after the furious Qianyuan Jiming Military Intelligence Bureau joined the investigation, the real culprit was quickly identified, and the final clue pointed directly to Empress Song's Fengque Palace!

When this result came out, the personnel of the Military Intelligence Agency in charge of the investigation were frightened, knowing that they were involved in a terrible case.

But. With the holy orders of Ji Junchen and Qian Yuanji, even if they knew that there was a huge amount of right and wrong waiting in front of them, they could only check it head-on!

The brigade secretly drove into the Fengque Palace. took down the great eunuch of Fengque Palace. Some people with inside information thought that this would be the end of the matter. But they don't know that the real waves are still to come. During the ensuing routine search, someone searched the room of the great eunuch Li Hongwei for the materials used to make Zuò witch Gu dolls and spells full of strange runes!

This time. It's a big mess.

Qian Yuanji personally issued a holy edict. Ordered someone to conduct a strict investigation of Fengque Palace. As a result, under the big locust tree at the gate of the palace, a buried witch Gu puppet was issued, and the birth date of Qianyuanji was also written on it, and seven long nails were used to nail the key points around the body. Underneath the witch doll, there are even more spell runes with rubbing!

This is to curse and kill Qianyuanji!

The news spread, the court was shaken, Zhongzhou was shaken, and the world was shaken!

As the Empress of Song, she secretly used spells to kill the emperor, trying to let her son ascend the throne and succeed to the throne. is so vicious and vicious. How can you continue to serve as the queen and the mother of the world?

Almost on the spot, Qian Yuanji sent Queen Song into the cold palace without any reason. And it is forbidden for any courtier to intercede for him!

………

The Grand Prince's Mansion.

As early as after the news of the poisoning of the Fifth Prince's Mansion spread, the eldest prince had already smelled an abnormal breath. While ordering someone to report to the Song family in Yanyun County with an expedited performance, he secretly made the final preparations to deal with the unexpected. And the next development of things, the case changed from poisoning to an incredible witch case, and the eldest prince immediately knew that the old emperor was going to be abolished.

Once the queen is abolished, the one who will ascend the throne will inevitably be Concubine Zhen, the mother of the five princes.

Next, it is logical to make the fifth prince the crown prince and completely deprive himself of his power in the court. If he is obedient, he is willing to be under house arrest for a few years, and he may be able to be a prince of peace in Zhongzhou. For the sake of the only little incense, or more than that, the reluctance to bear the reputation of fratricidal killing, the fifth prince may let himself go, but who can say?

The eldest prince did not dare or want to pin his hopes on the kindness of others, even if the other party was a half-brother.

Moreover, he didn't want to see his mother being thrown into the cold palace and missing out on the supreme throne!

From childhood to adulthood, the people around him have instilled in him, so that the eldest prince has no other choice. After dozens of laps back and forth in the empty room, the eldest prince finally made up his mind.

Revolt!

Since the old emperor was unwilling to give up that position to him, he would fight for it himself!

He had already considered it all, but all he lacked was determination. After really making up your mind, it is not difficult to go about it. In the afternoon of the same day, before the influence of the witch Gu case reached its peak and the old emperor officially announced the abolition of the queen and the establishment of a separate party, the henchmen of the eldest prince secretly entered the palace and contacted the henchmen hidden by the Empress Song in the palace.

A qiē is carried out extremely secretively.

As early as when the old emperor decided to take action against the faction of Empress Song and the Great Prince, the palace and the palace were already closely monitored by the Military Intelligence Bureau. Any power that is exposed to the surface, including those that are not hidden deep enough, is already under full control. Fortunately, after ruling the harem for so many years, and with the support of the Song family, the eight major lords, Queen Song has some hidden power after all.

It was this force of only a few people that contacted the female official who was bribed by Qian Yuanji's side, and handed her a small packet of white powder that had been melted into water.

This is a formula secretly researched by the Song family, which can speed up blood circulation and the beating rate of the heart, and at the same time has a certain tonic effect. It doesn't hurt for ordinary people, but it can make people feel refreshed. But for the old emperor, who is about to die and go to bed, it is undoubtedly a poison that urges his life.

However, this drug does not have any toxicity. Residues are also extremely insignificant. As long as the dosage is right, the drugged subject is very much like returning to the light and then dying of natural causes. Even if someone is suspicious, it is difficult to detect anything.

That night. Heavy rain in Zhongzhou.

Because the witch Gu case was so widely implicated, even if Qian Yuanji was exhausted, he still held on to his body until the early hours of the morning. However, after eating a bowl of porridge at random, Qian Yuanji soon felt the strength surging out from all parts of his body again. This wonderful feeling can only be experienced when you are young and strong, but you have not experienced it since ten years ago. Makes him feel more spiritual than he has ever felt before.

Could it be that his condition is getting better?

For a moment, Qian Yuanji thought of this thought, but soon felt his heart pounding. It seems a little uncomfortable.

"Bang!"

The delicate blue and white porcelain tea bowl fell to the ground and fell apart, as if to foreshadow something, and the crisp sound was heard far away at night.

………

Although the witch case at the beginning is different. But the final outcome is just like a copy of the game. The only difference is that the time is years earlier!

When the old emperor fell, his sleeve brought the tea bowl on the table, and fell to the ground, the female officials waiting outside heard strange movements, followed by the imperial guards who rushed in in with exclamations. After that, the imperial doctor who was recruited at any time in the side hall hurried over and carried out a futile rescue. However, a qiē has become irretrievable.

On a rainy night, the fourteenth emperor of the empire, Qianyuanji, died!

Shen Liao, the new commander of the Praetorian Guard Legion, was shocked after receiving a report from his subordinates. While quickly leading the troops to the inner city. On the one hand, he ordered his subordinates to divide into three routes. rushed all the way to the Five Princes' Mansion to inform the Five Princes of the news; The other rushed all the way to the Great Prince's Mansion. comprehensive surveillance of the Grand Prince; The last way is to pounce on the four doors of Zhongzhou. He instinctively sensed that an earth-shattering upheaval was coming.

"Drive! Drive! ”

The sound of horses' hooves pounding on the bluestone slabs was unsettling on this turbulent rainy night. After relying on the token of the Praetorian Legion to rush all the way to the mansion of the Five Princes, the news of the death of the old emperor was urgently reported.

In fact, the fifth prince, as the heir recognized by the old emperor, had already gained a lot of power at this time. Even in the Military Intelligence Bureau, there are people who secretly communicate with the tune. Before the cavalry of the Praetorian Guard sent by Shen Liao arrived, news had already come from the palace. Knowing that the old emperor died mysteriously at this most critical time, the fifth prince immediately realized that something was wrong.

Although after the imperial doctor's diagnosis, he believed that Qianyuanji would indeed die soon, but after the joint diagnosis and treatment of several national players, as well as various life-threatening precious medicinal materials, it should not be a problem to delay until the beginning of spring next year. It may indeed be possible that the judgment of several national players is wrong, but at this time, the death of the night before the abolition of the re-establishment is too coincidental no matter how you think about it.

Could it be that the prince killed the king?

The heart of the fifth prince shook violently, although he was born in the royal family, anything could happen, but this kind of red fruit was contrary to human ethics, which still made him feel a chill in his heart. But after a brief period of anger and sadness, the fifth prince forcibly calmed his mood. He knew that if the old emperor did not die, safely transferred the power to himself, and completely cut off the power of the eldest prince and the Empress Song step by step, he would sit on the throne steadily. But with the sudden death of the old emperor, the good situation that was originally beneficial to him suddenly became confusing.

It should be said that it is worthy of royal origin. It only took a few minutes for the five princes to make an extremely correct decision.

Block the news, keep it secret!

The security of the entire imperial city was guarded by the Praetorian Guard. And in the previous actions of the old emperor, he had already handed over the dominance of the Praetorian Legion to the five princes. As long as the news of the imperial city can be blocked, the five princes can continue to make orders in the name of the old emperor. After the matter is ripe and settled, the cause of the emperor's death will be made public. At that time, even if the eldest prince still wants to make trouble, he will lose the best opportunity.

With his decision made, the entire Five Princes' Mansion was running at high speed like a sophisticated machine.

At this time, a messenger sent by Shen Liao, the commander of the Praetorian Legion, arrived. Knowing Shen Liao's spontaneous actions, the five princes couldn't help but praise in their hearts. Although I have communicated with the other party before, what should I do if I encounter an emergency? But it's one thing to negotiate and another to be able to do it in an orderly and perfect way. This timely and appropriate response made the five princes feel reassured.

It's getting dark.

The gates of the Praetorian Legion were wide open, and the troops of the four divisions poured out in unison, and began to take over the defense of the city according to the orders issued above. Two other divisions took over the four gates of the Imperial City, prohibiting access to and outside the Imperial City on the grounds that they had encountered Assassins in the palace. Subsequently, under the protection of the brigade guards, the five princes rushed into the palace urgently, and prepared to gather the party henchmen and important ministers, and pretended to use the holy decree of the old emperor to issue the holy decree one after another.

However, the situation that I thought was under control was unexpectedly out of control with the leakage of the news.

After the death of the old emperor, although the Praetorian Guard quickly blocked it, the Great Prince's faction had already prepared and still spread the news in a very short time. With the help of party members, after the sky dawned, the ministers and officials spontaneously gathered in front of the imperial city, which was forbidden to enter and exit by the Praetorian Guard, and asked for confirmation of the news - in just half a night, almost half of the upper circles of Zhongzhou learned the bad news of the old emperor Yulong Bintian.

"Your Majesty died last night!"

"How is this possible? It can't be a rumor, right? ”

"Who would dare to make such rumors? Impatient? ”

The faces of every courtier were full of uneasiness and hesitation. Under the pressure of these bigwigs, the Praetorian Legion soldiers had no choice but to put them into the Taiji Palace. The five princes who entered the city overnight last night, as well as Chen Sansheng, the minister of the interior, Di Hongming, the minister of finance, who faintly had the status of a minister who took care of his life, and Taizhuo, the minister of Chengguo, who came urgently, summoned the ministers here.

Under the leadership of the eldest prince's henchmen, the five princes' henchmen who were ready to act with the help of the emperor's order were very passive.

If it is claimed that the old emperor is seriously ill and it is inconvenient to hold a court meeting, but the faction of the great prince can ask a few people to visit him and confirm the life and death of the old emperor. In that case, the lies of the five princes' henchmen will not be self-defeating, but will attract doubts and attacks. But if it is admitted that the old emperor died of illness last night, the attempt of the five princes will be directly frustrated!

Although everyone knows that the old emperor has already cedered the throne to the eldest prince, after all, it has not been announced to the whole country. And this ambiguity gave the eldest prince a chance.

Seeing that the situation was in chaos, at the critical moment, Cheng Guogong stood up.

The eldest prince's decisive dissemination of the news did put the situation in a very unfavorable situation for the five princes. Since it is not possible to not disclose the situation, in order to change the situation, he decided to overkill!

"The old emperor did die last night."

He has a very high prestige, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he quieted down the ministers in the Taiji Palace, and also made the ministers who had the bad news confirmed have a little more sadness on their faces. But the next words shocked the ministers.

ps: Someone asked why the recent update is unstable, here is an explanation. The first is that Odin had never written a historical novel before, and he was not well prepared, and it was a bit difficult to grasp it in the middle of writing. Second, it's because I've not been in good health lately, so the update has been slow, not because some children's shoes want to.

PS2: There is a big seal push this month. (To be continued.) )
