Chapter 427: Testimony
All eyes were on the crown prince.
Prince?
Prince!
"You!" The prince who knelt on the ground also looked shocked, and looked at the imperial doctor in disbelief, "Imperial Doctor Peng!" What nonsense are you talking about? ”
Now that the name of the prince has been called, Imperial Doctor Peng, who is trembling on the ground, has no scruples.
"It's the prince, His Royal Highness is holding my wife and children hostage, I can't help it." He cried.
The prince was angry: "Lone said that you should take a good look at the medicine used by Your Majesty, is it really the same as Dr. Hu's, when did you let you change the medicine?" He knelt down to the emperor, "Father, the son is not a beast, how can the son do such a thing, father, you are the son of the minister, this is someone who wants to frame the son of the minister." ”
As he spoke, he leaned over the ground and began to cry.
"Erchen has not done well these days, and he has lost a lot of temper, and Erchen knows that many people hate me, father-"
"Why should the sons and daughters harm their father, if it is said that the sons want to be the emperor, but the father is still not there, the sons and daughters are the next emperors, why should the sons do such an unreasonable thing."
"Saying that the sons want to harm their fathers and emperors is obviously harming the sons themselves!"
The palace was silent, the prince plotted to kill the emperor, this fact is too much to do, and it makes sense to hear the prince's words at this time, it is indeed a bit far-fetched to rely on this imperial doctor's testimony alone - maybe someone else is really using this imperial doctor to frame the prince.
The emperor is not there, and the crown prince is the next emperor, but if the prince harms the emperor, then it is time for someone else to be the prince.
The courtiers' eyes couldn't help but look at the three princes and even the two concubines-
King Qi's expression was calm, King Yan's face turned pale, and King Lu broke out in sweat.
"It has nothing to do with me." King Lu couldn't help but blurt out, "If you hurt the prince, it won't be my turn to be the prince." ”
These words made the people in the room look stunned, not like words!
"Father, this shouldn't have anything to do with them." The crown prince took the initiative to say, raising his head and looking at the emperor, "Because of the matter of the sixth brother, the sons have been guarding against them, detaining them in the palace, and not letting them get close to everything related to their father's emperor-"
He accentuated his tone on the word sixth brother.
The emperor understood what he meant, the sixth brother, Chu Yurong, the son who had been an iron-masked general, in this palace, full of eyeliner and hidden people, that is the person who is most capable of murdering the emperor, and he is also the person who has the most reason to murder the emperor now.
After all, the previous emperor told him the truth, and he also said in person that he would let him kill Chu Yurong.
Whether the king or the father wants the minister or the son to die, but the courtier refuses to die-
The emperor did not speak, and a glint twinkled in his eyes.
The crown prince kept staring at the emperor's expression, and sneered in his heart when he saw this, Fuqing also felt that it was unreliable to find this imperial doctor, yes, this imperial doctor was indeed unreliable, but if you really wanted to use a reliable imperial doctor who had been friends for several years, it would be unreliable - once you were caught, there would be no chance to refute it.
I found the imperial doctor who was driven away at the slightest threat, and once it was done, it would be done, and if something went wrong, I had no contact with it before, and I couldn't grasp any handles.
It's a good thing that he has a habit of thinking about the worst first, otherwise today is really-
The emperor didn't speak, and the others began to speak, some ministers questioned the imperial doctor, and some ministers asked how the eunuch Jinzhong investigated this person, and the hall became chaotic, and the previous tension dissipated.
"His Royal Highness the Prince." A voice sounded, "If Imperial Physician Peng is not enough to testify, then what about Doctor Hu?" ”
This sentence broke into his ears, and the prince felt a chill down his spine, and everyone in the palace also followed the sound.
It was Chu Xiurong who was standing on the side who spoke, his expression was calm, and his voice was gentle: "Everyone knows about the murder of Dr. Hu, but fortunately, Dr. Hu did not die. ”
That Dr. Hu didn't die? The people in the hall were shocked, but it seemed that the body had never been found—and they did not care about the body of a dead doctor.
But how did King Qi know?
The prince was incredulous: "Third brother, what did you say?" Dr. Hu is not dead? What's going on? ”
Chu Xiurong looked at him and smiled slightly: "What's the matter, let Doctor Hu take his horse and come to tell you the crown prince." ”
Even Ma Du-the crown prince's face could no longer hide Tie Qing, he wanted to say something, but the emperor had already spoken.
"It seems that I was cured by this Dr. Hu." He said, "It's not that the Zhang Yuan has developed a drug. ”
Zhang Yuanju, who was standing at the back of the ministers, knelt down: "Please forgive the old minister's deception, the medicine Your Majesty has taken in the past few days is indeed made by Dr. Hu, but-"
"It was Erchen who asked Zhang Yuanju to conceal it." Chu Xiurong said, "Because Doctor Hu was killed before, Erchen felt that something was wrong, so he hid the news and didn't let him appear until his father was cured." ”
The prince pointed at him: "Chu Xiurong, you, you are so bold—"
Not only is he so bold, but he also has a great ability! Was he who saved Dr. Hu? How did he do it?
Is it by virtue of strategy, by virtue of fame among scholars? Fame is not a manpower, but he can quietly ruin his plan from his men and horses and the emperor's secret guards!
What does he have to say to deal with the current situation?
It's a scene he never considered—
The prince's thoughts were in turmoil for a while, and he no longer had his previous composure.
"Bring it in." The emperor's gaze looked past the crown prince to the door, "I didn't think I would have a chance to meet this Doctor Hu." ”
The prince pointed to Chu Xiurong's hand and slowly drooped down, and his heart slowly fell.
Dr. Hu limped in by two eunuchs, and several guards behind him carried a horse, which was still alive and had a broken leg.
As soon as he saw the emperor sitting on the bed, Dr. Hu immediately knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty! You're finally awake! He began to cry as he spoke.
The emperor said, "Thank you, since I used your medicine, I have been able to break through the trap and wake up." ”
Dr. Hu cried: "It's Your Majesty's true destiny, where the destiny is, great blessing and great longevity-"
Hearing that he was about to speak incoherently, the emperor smiled and interrupted him: "Okay, these words will be said later, you tell me first, who is trying to harm you?" ”
Dr. Hu wiped his tears and stretched out his hand to point at the prince: "It's the prince!" ”
Alas, it's the prince again, and all the eyes in the palace are condensed on the prince again, again and again—
The prince seemed to be angry and smiled: "It's lonely again, what about the evidence?" You weren't in the palace when you died—"
Doctor Hu interrupted him: "It's your people, your eunuch—" He turned his hand and pointed to a eunuch standing behind the prince in the room.
This eunuch was standing beside Fuqing, which showed his status beside the prince, and the people in the palace followed Dr. Hu's hand, and more than half of the people also recognized him.
The eunuch's face turned pale.
"Fucai!" Doctor Hu shouted hatefully, "You rode a horse beside me and stabbed a poisonous needle in my horse at that time, you were still smiling at me at that time, and your mouth shape said to me to die, I can see it clearly!" ”
The prince couldn't help but look at Fucai, this stupid talent, he does things just like things, why do you want to talk more, because he is sure that Dr. Hu has no chance of survival? Stupid, he was ruined by the stupidity of these two people.
The eunuch who was called Fucai knelt on the ground, trembling like the previous imperial doctor.
"Your Majesty." He trembled and said, "This, this is the slave maid alone, the slave maid has a personal grudge with Dr. Hu, and it has nothing to do with the prince——"
As he spoke, he slammed into the pillar on the side.
There was an exclamation in the hall, but the next moment the eunuch Fucai fell to his knees with a scream, blood slowly oozing from his legs, and a black wooden hairpin was stuck in his knee like a dagger.
