Chapter 608: Aftermath (1)
Emperor Xuanhe was weak, and in the past two years, Cheng Jinrong and Du Tidian had carefully recuperated with his master and apprentice, and Emperor Xuanhe was still suffering from minor illnesses. This time it was a highly toxic chronic poison, and after the exchange transfusion, he breathed quickly and slowly, and he never woke up.
The sixth prince kept watch by the dragon couch all night, his heart was anxious, but he couldn't show it on his face, he was calm and calm: "Duke Wei is loyal, and his father and Gu are clear." However, my father was fine, and he could rest on the couch for a while. ”
"From today on, the lonely father and emperor will listen to the political review and review, and all the important affairs of the court and the central government will also bother you Aiqing, and you will have to worry a lot about it."
The ministers immediately replied: "The responsibility of the ministers is within the ministry, and they don't dare to worry about the four words." ”
The proposal was rejected, and Wei Guogong did not move, secretly thinking in his heart.
There was a big change in the palace last night!
The Son of Heaven can't show his face anymore!
The rest of the ministers also thought about it in their hearts.
Fortunately, Emperor Xuanhe was often sick, and it was common not to go to court for two or three days. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince presided over the small court meeting on his behalf, and there were important ministers of the humerus in the court to manage the government affairs of the country. Emperor Xuanhe was sick for ten days and a half, and there was no big problem.
The Ministry of Industry Shangshu took the lead in opening his mouth to play: "His Royal Highness the Prince, Weichen has something to play." ”
The sixth prince nodded slightly: "Quasi-play!" ”
……
The small pilgrimage meeting lasted for half a day, as usual.
The six princes listened to the government for nearly two years, and had to be taught by Emperor Xuanhe himself. Several Taifu even tried their best to teach. Just like a piece of jade that has been carefully carved, today is calm and calm, listening to the deliberations of the ministers, or not opening his mouth, once he opens his mouth, he will be able to say the main point. The performance is remarkable.
During this period, Xiaoxi Gonggong quietly entered the palace twice and whispered in the ears of the six princes. I don't know if it has anything to do with Emperor Xuanhe, anyway, the six princes look as usual, and they can't see anything unusual.
Wait until noon, and the small pilgrimage will disperse.
The six princes only left Yong'an Hou: "Yong'an Hou, please stay, I have something to tell you alone." ”
Yong'an Hou's heart sank suddenly, and he responded respectfully.
When Wei Guogong was leaving, he threw a meaningful glance at Yong'an Hou. Yong'an Hou's heart became more and more unsteady.
"What does Your Highness command?" Yong'an Hou asked calmly.
The sixth prince glanced at Yong'an Hou deeply, and suddenly said, "You come with me." ”
Yong'an Hou was confused, but he didn't dare to refuse. With the six princes went to the Baohe Palace.
originally thought that the six princes would take him to meet the Son of Heaven or Empress Pei, but unexpectedly, the six princes kept moving forward, all the way to the most remote and secluded row of rooms in the Baohe Palace.
He Qi, the commander of the guards of the East Palace, has been by the side of the six princes. There are also twenty East Palace guards.
He Qi aside, these twenty East Palace guards are also one in a hundred masters. As soon as the six princes stopped, these East Palace guards scattered, their hands on the hilt of their swords, and their eyes showed a fierce light.
The bad premonition in Yong'an Hou's heart became stronger and stronger, and he couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Why did Your Highness suddenly bring me here?" ”
The sixth prince said lightly: "You push the door in, just take a look." ”
Yong'an Hou calmed down and pushed the door open.
Then, Yong'an Hou stood stiffly at the door.
In the room, a coffin was placed. The coffin had not been closed, and it was not known whose body was inside...... The sixth prince specially led him here, obviously, the corpse in this coffin must be someone who is very close to him.
Won't it ......
"It's not the second emperor brother!" The voice of the sixth prince sounded in the ears of Yong'an Hou, and there was a strange coldness in his voice: "It's the imperial sister!" ”
The person who died was not the second prince, but Princess Shouning!
Yong'an Hou's stiff body eased slightly, and a look of sadness and shock flashed in his eyes, and he walked to the coffin and saw Princess Shouning's familiar face at a glance.
The beautiful and proud face was already blue-black after death. The clothes on his body should have been changed, and there was no blood, but he could smell the unique stench of the corpse.
The Six Princes and He Qi also walked in together. He Qi's gaze kept falling on Yong'an Hou.
I really didn't expect Princess Shouning to die like this!
Yong'an Hou looked at it for a moment, then turned his head to look at the six princes: "Your Highness, what the hell is going on?" Why did Her Royal Highness die suddenly? ”
There is still half a month, and it is the wedding date of Princess Shouning and Pei Jue.
Princess Shouning has always been good, how could she suddenly die?
The six princes didn't say a word, and looked at Yong'an Hou fixedly.
That gaze made Yong'an Hou's heart furious. I don't know how long it took for the sixth prince to whisper in a deep voice: "Someone secretly told the imperial sister everything about Yuan Silan, and she remembered everything a few months ago. That person, with ill intentions, hid chronic poison in the pearl hairpin given to the imperial sister. ”
"At the instigation of that person, the imperial sister gave birth to the idea of poisoning my father, the queen mother, and my younger brother. Last night, she poisoned her snacks. The father and queen mother did not notice and ate the entrance by mistake. ”
"I don't like sweet snacks, I didn't eat them at the time, and I got away with it."
"The imperial sister died, and before the poison, she was killed by her father."
Later, the father and the queen mother were poisoned together. Fortunately, Imperial Physician Cheng rushed into the palace in time and performed a blood exchange technique for his father and queen mother. The father and mother were temporarily out of danger. However, there is still residual poison in the body. ”
"That's the truth."
"Yong'an Hou might as well guess, who will be the person who secretly gave poison to the imperial sister?"
Yong'an Hou: "......"
Yong'an Hou's face can no longer be described in two simple words.
This second prince! It's too much to breathe!
Do you really think that if you poison the emperor and the crown prince, it will be his turn to be the prince? Once Princess Shouning makes a move, he will definitely be implicated. In the end, it was just to make a wedding dress for others, and the eldest prince was cheapened for nothing.
The sixth prince looked at Yong'an Hou coldly, and said slowly: "Father and son turn against each other, fratricidal, such things must not be spread." Otherwise, there will be no face left in the heavenly family! ”
"I'm bringing you here today so that you can see the imperial sister for the last time. In two days, there will be the 'bad news' that the imperial sister has died of an acute illness, and the family affairs can only be done. ”
At this time, where can Yong'an Hou take care of any family affairs, he can only nod: "Everything is according to what His Highness said." ”
I heard the sixth prince say again: "The most important thing at the moment is to wait for my father to wake up." I will investigate the poisoning to the end. I will never let go of the first evil, and those who do the tiger will also pay the price! ”
This was clearly addressed to him.
Cold sweat oozed from Yong'an Hou's back, and he bowed his head and wanted to retire.
The sixth prince said lightly: "Uncle is not an outsider, I still need your full help in this matter." From this day on, you will remain in the palace. When this matter is over, it is not too late to leave the palace. ”
Yong'an Hou: "......"
