Chapter 337

At the beginning of dawn, all the imperial doctors gathered in the Qinzheng Palace, and many of them didn't have time to wake up, so they were hurriedly called by the guards from the palace......

All of a sudden, the entire palace fell into a dead silence, many people are worried about the safety of the emperor's life, the current situation has not stabilized, the prince and King Jing are fighting, Princess Jing was poisoned yesterday, I still don't know what it has become, some people privately sighed - everything is not going well this year, I think I have offended which god.

At this time, the emperor is seriously ill, and the harem must be a mess, those concubines have not thought about what kind of fate they will have if the emperor dies, fortunately, the funeral system has already been abolished at this time, and the concubines only need to go to a temple on the outskirts of Beijing to spend the rest of their lives, but there are many young and beautiful girls among the concubines, and they come to the palace with the mission of the family, just thinking that by the emperor's side, they can take care of their father and brother, and revitalize their family. It is said that there is an emperor's concubine in the family, and if they are favored once, no one will dare to bully them anymore.

Born in the family of an official eunuch, I thought that my background would be much luckier and nobler than ordinary people, but it was not until I went to Beijing that I found out that my family was a little bit bigger, and any official in Shangjing could be arrogant to them, and they only knew at this time how great the opportunities and opportunities were by the emperor's side and at the foot of the imperial city.

When these young girls finally passed the layers of selection and entered the palace and entered the palace compound, they deeply realized their insignificance in the face of the unreachable king and the beauties who looked back at the piles of embroidered beauties around them.

Many concubines came to Shangjing with the goal of revitalizing the family, entered the palace compound, and once chose to be on the king's side, but before they had said a few words to the emperor, they heard such bad news, they were the shadows of countless Yin Xu, but they had not yet had time to become Yin Xu.

Now there is a dead silence in the palace, all the concubines are kneeling in front of the Buddha statue in their palace, some hands are folded, some hands are holding Buddha beads, they all have only one wish in their hearts, that is, the emperor can survive.

Once the emperor died, they were arranged to go to the palace of the concubine, and they had no heirs under their knees, so they lost their value forever......

And the palace maids and eunuchs in the harem made a mess, and after dawn, someone found that the people in the East Palace went to the empty building, but the will had not yet been issued, and the news that the prince had been deposed and left the palace overnight had already spread throughout the palace.

Once there are such some eyebrows, the palace people who are already idle in the palace will talk about this matter, the Qinzheng Palace is a mess, and the harem is also full of gossip, Rongfu saw this, and hurriedly went out of the palace to find Xia Rongxin to come back and preside over the situation.

The emperor gave her the power to take charge of the harem, and now as a concubine, she is like a deputy queen, if the emperor has something, Xia Rongxin must come out to preside over the overall situation.

And when it came to the fifth more early dynasty, the ministers of civil and military affairs all arrived outside the Taihe Gate to wait, but the palace gate was not opened for a long time, which made the civil and military officials have some surprises, Qin Yuandao stood at the front, he thought that it might be related to the poisoning of Liang Huanqing yesterday.

It wasn't until this morning that Qin Ruilan was sent back by Wei Shen, out of concern, Qin Yuandao must have asked Qin Ruilan where she went yesterday, Qin Ruilan told Qin Yuandao about the matter, and also explained that Liang Huanqing's poisoning was very likely to be caused by Zhao Peiyu's poisoning at the spring banquet, but Qin Ruilan did not tell them the news that Liang Huanqing could no longer get pregnant, General Liang told him not to let Liang Huanqing know, and at the moment, it is best not to let too many people know about this kind of thing.

Qin Yuandao, as the head of the hundred officials, must know best what the situation is in the court, and yesterday he also attended the spring banquet and saw Zhao Peiyu toast Qi Jingqin, but that cup of wine was indeed because King Jing looked invincible, so Concubine Mei asked Liang Huanqing to drink it, if this is the case, then Zhao Peiyu is openly poisoning Qi Jingqin in front of everyone.

The contradiction between the East Palace and the Jingwang Mansion must have intensified instantly, and Liang Huanqing was still pregnant with a child in her belly...... Qin Yuandao thought so, and he was a little worried in his heart, what happened this night, and now that the imperial city is closed, has the palace changed?

"Yesterday, the lights of the Qianwang Mansion in Yongpingfang were on, and there were white flags hanging outside the door, as if someone had moved in......," Qin Yuandao was about to ask about the Imperial Forest Army guards standing in front of him, but the conversation between the two Shangshu lords behind him caught his attention.

"I'm afraid Lord Sun is not mistaken, how can there be people living in the Qianwang Mansion? Xu is the death day of the prince is coming, the people of the palace in order to pay tribute to him, so he did it, the prince is the emperor's most beloved brother, and it is common to pay tribute every year. "Another Lord Liu thought about it carefully, as if something was wrong, although the prince of Qianqian died early, but he was one of the few princes who still had a mansion in Shangjing, it is said that the mansion has countless treasures, beautiful, inside and outside are showing the luxury of the royal family.

"Lord Liu's words are wrong, I live in Yongpingfang, just an alley away from the Qianwang Mansion, and the death day of the Qianwang is not today, I have lived in Yongpingfang for a lifetime, it is impossible to be wrong." Master Sun shook his head, waved his hand and said solemnly.

"Then since this is not the case, although no one lives in the Qianwang Mansion, the servants inside are still inside, and the monthly money is distributed by the Internal Affairs Office, which shows how much the emperor attaches importance to it, how can the Qianwang Mansion enter the people? Where did this thief dare to go to the Qianwang Mansion? Hearing what Lord Sun said, Lord Liu became curious.

Qin Yuandao was attracted by this conversation, so he stopped, he also wanted to know what was going on in the Qianwang Mansion, and vaguely felt that the sudden brightness of the Qianwang Mansion was definitely not accidental, and there must be something in it that he didn't know.

Master Sun looked left and right, and said vigilantly and quietly: "It's not a thief, it's His Royal Highness the Prince......

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?!" Lord Liu was very shocked, and Lord Sun saw that this was about to attract the attention of others, so he hurriedly patted him, signaling Lord Liu to speak quietly, and Lord Liu then asked, "Lord Sun saw it with his own eyes?" ”

Master Sun shook his head and said, "I didn't see it with my own eyes, but the housekeeper in the house saw it and secretly followed him to eavesdrop, His Royal Highness the Prince...... has become the ...... of the prince of Song"

"Lord Song?" Lord Liu's eyes almost popped out, but he still tried to keep his voice down, "How is it possible! We haven't heard from us! ”

"Princess Jing was poisoned and the child in her womb was miscarried, do you know who did it?" Lord Sun looked at Lord Liu with an omniscient look, and now he was standing outside the Taihe Gate and was not allowed to enter, so he couldn't hold back this infinite thing in his heart, and wanted to find a close colleague to talk about, and this kind of thing may also have a huge impact on the government, so it would be better to let the allies of Byte Set know earlier.

"Who did it?" Lord Liu was completely taken away by Lord Sun's words, and what Lord Sun asked, Lord Liu followed his words.

Qin Yuandao was also shocked, so in the last night, there were really many changes in the palace, even the crown prince was deposed, and he thought that the Qianwang Mansion had become the Chung Wangfu at this time......

Qin Yuandao continued to listen, his heart was in turmoil at this time, Liang Fengmian hadn't come over yet, it was good to hear how much news others had gotten at this time, so that when he could see the emperor later, he wouldn't know anything, thinking so, Qin Yuandao moved a little bit to them quietly.

The two Shangshu lords were chatting vigorously, and they didn't notice that Prime Minister Qin was listening to them.

"Former Crown Princess - Zhao Peiyu." Master Sun said firmly, "At that time, at the Spring Banquet, Zhao Peiyu poisoned Princess Jing in front of everyone. ”

Lord Liu looked shocked, and when he opened his mouth to ask, Lord Sun continued: "Many people have seen it, if you don't believe it, you can ask...... Prime Minister Qin Cheng ......" as he spoke, and glanced at Qin Yuandao, who hurriedly stiffened his body and remained motionless.

Master Sun didn't notice anything unusual, and then continued: "Last night, the white flags hung in the Qianwang Mansion were for Zhao Peiyu. ”

"What?" Lord Liu hadn't finished receiving the previous message, and now he heard another explosive message.

Master Sun nodded and said, "What are you lying about, my housekeeper saw them carry Zhao Peiyu into the Qianwang Mansion with his own eyes......

"So, the crown prince was deposed and the crown princess is dead?" Lord Liu said in disbelief.

"Exactly. After the emperor abolished the crown prince, he hurriedly asked him to move out of the East Palace, and the emperor has two princes, except for the prince, who else can enter the East Palace as the prince of the world? Seeing that Lord Liu was like this, Lord Sun used inducing words to guide Lord Liu.

"Except for the crown prince, that is Prince Jing......" Lord Liu said, "So, Prince Jing will be the prince?" Does the emperor want to appoint Prince Jing as the prince? ”

"Lord Liu, there were only two princes during the Bingyu period, and after the former prince was deposed, who else do you say is qualified to be the crown prince? Abolish this prince, and the other one who is logical is the new prince. Is it possible to make a princess? Master Sun said.

"What Lord Sun said is extremely ......" Hearing this, Lord Liu himself also had a bottom in his heart.

Now that Qi Jingyang has been deposed, it is logical that Qi Jingqin will be the crown prince, even if the emperor does not set up a new monarch, but in the end, Qi Jingqin will still win the throne with the help of Liang Fengmian.

"Since the death of Empress Mingxian, the Lu family has been declining day by day...... Now the crown prince has been deposed...... In the early years of Bingyu, the Lu family was incomparably beautiful, rich and rivaled the country, whoever wants to go to Beijing to do business must not pass through the Lu family, even if it is a draft, the Lu family can intervene, those who want to rely on their daughters to take the throne, there is only the way to draft it, but if it is an enemy of the Lu family, let alone once chosen on the king's side, it is rare to see the emperor. In the end, Lord Sun couldn't help but feel embarrassed for the Lu family, "How miserable it was to be squeezed by Mei Guifei and Prince Jing at the beginning, but look at it now, I only see Mei Guifei and Prince Jing's scenery, the prince ...... Even the crown prince was lost......"

"Hey...... Don't talk about this kind of thing......" Lord Liu was worried that there would be too many people, so he hurriedly sighed and silenced.

But at this time, it was too late, after Qin Yuandao listened to their conversation, he also had a rough idea in his heart, he was eager to see the emperor, and wanted to know what the emperor's attitude was.

At this time, Luo Xun was on duty outside the Taihe Gate according to the usual practice, Qin Yuandao hesitated for a while, then stepped forward and bowed and said, "Lord Luo Xun." ”

Hearing what Prime Minister Qin Cheng said, everyone quieted down, and looked at Qin Yuandao one after another, everyone has been waiting outside the door for so long, whether they can go to the early dynasty or not, Qin Yuandao, as the head of a hundred officials, has the responsibility to take the lead in asking everyone a question.

Luo Xun looked at it at this time, he remembered that this Qin Cheng minister, the last Chinese New Year's Eve feast, it was he who came up with conclusive evidence to convict Lu Gaohong, although he was on duty in the palace on weekdays and had no friendship with the officials of the previous dynasty, but Luo Xun admired this Qin Cheng minister very much - try to ask who can directly jump from a ministry attendant to become the first rank of a hundred officials.

"Prime Minister Qin." Seeing this, Luo Xun hurriedly replied, probably knowing what Qin Yuandao wanted to ask, but there was no order at the moment, and they couldn't open the Taihe Gate.

"Lord Luo Xun might help me go to the Golden Luan Hall to have a look? We've been waiting, why, haven't we heard the proclamation yet? Qin Yuandao asked.

Luo Xun was embarrassed in his heart, just now He Sheng's father-in-law had instructed not to spread the news that the emperor was critically ill, and now the prince has just been deposed, and the news has not yet been announced, which will cause some major events that are difficult to control.

Qin Yuandao also looked at Luo Xun, and Luo Xun was embarrassed and didn't know how to explain to them, and was expecting someone to come out and explain to them, when the Taihe door was opened, and the officials saw this, they all sorted out their official hats and clothes, waiting for the emperor's will.

It was He Yu who came out, he followed Rong Fu, when Rong Fu was about to hurry out of the palace to pick up Mei Guifei Niangniang, he met He Yu on the way, the emperor was seriously ill at this time, I am afraid that he could not go to the early court, He Sheng ordered him to come over to Taihe Gate and say to the adults, since he met Rong Fu, he also came with him.

"Ladies and gentlemen." He Yu walked out, bowed to the civil and military officials, and then said, "The emperor is unwell, I am afraid that he will not be able to go to the court today, please go back, everyone." ”

As soon as the words fell, the hundred officials whispered one after another, and Qin Yuandao stepped forward and asked, "Dare to ask Father-in-law He, how is the emperor's dragon body, is there a big problem?" ”

This is exactly what they are worried about, now everything is chasing after the wind and shadows, I heard that there is no official statement, there are groups of victims outside the capital, rumors are flying outside the capital, the palace is locked, and the emperor is sick, which makes everyone not anxious.

He Yu only bowed and said: "There is Lord Lao Qin's concern, the emperor's health is fine, it is all an old problem for many years, the imperial doctor has already come, it is good to ask him to rest more, and please Lord Qin to be tired, how hard it has been these days." ”

He Yu tried his best to say it lightly, so that it would not make people panic, at least there would be no major incidents in a short period of time, whenever there was a change of dynasty, Shangjing would always become a battlefield without gunsmoke, but it must be bloody, with several dead and wounded.

Qin Yuandao naturally understood what He Yu said, he nodded, took a step back, bowed to the imperial city and said, "God bless my emperor-"

Seeing this, the hundred officials behind him followed suit, bowed and shouted to the palace mountain: "God bless my emperor-"

Afterwards, the hundred officials dispersed and returned to their mansions, and Rong Fu rushed to Jingwang's mansion in a sedan chair......
