622: Emperor poisoned

Before Du Zhen could make a move, Huo Hanyi had already come to the door with someone from the Criminal Department, with an imperial order to arrest Gu Wei, Gu Maocai's sister, and Du Zhen's second wife.

When Du Zhen was planning, it was not long after the morning dynasty, and when Huo Hanyi brought people to the door, it was before the sun set.

Gu Maocai didn't even survive half a day's effort.

When Du Zhen heard that the criminal department came to the door, his face was as black as ink, it came too quickly, and he was not ready for anything.

But the other party has an imperial decree, and he can't openly confront it now.

"Lord Du." When he met Du Zhen, Huo Hanyi saluted very politely, making it impossible to find faults.

In any case, Du Zhen is also a former prime minister, and now he is not dismissed for his crimes, but he is discharged and returned to the Yuan, and the place where he should be respected is still to be respected.

"I don't know what happened to Lord Huo in such a big battle in the old man's mansion?"

Huo Hanyi didn't beat around the bush, "Xia Guan was appointed by His Majesty to investigate the case of Gu Maocai, the Duke of Jin Anguo, colluding with people in the rivers and lakes to kill his colleagues, and after investigation, there was the participation of Gu Wei, the second lady of your mansion, and Xia Guan was ordered by the emperor to take the second lady of your mansion to the Criminal Department for review. ”

"......" Du Zhen didn't expect to come to take Gu Wei away, Gu Wei didn't know what happened to him, but Gu Wei was his second wife, so what is the difference between being taken away like this and slapping him in the face?" But is there evidence? ”

"There are both human and material evidence, if Lord Du is interested, you can go to the Criminal Department with the subordinate officials to hear the trial."

Du Zhen's face sank, not because of Huo Hanyi's attitude, but because of his words, so tough, is it really a stone hammer or what?

"Go and call the second lady, just say that the Criminal Department has a case that needs her to cooperate with the investigation." Du Zhen didn't answer Huo Hanyi's words, and directly ordered the housekeeper on the side.

The steward was immediately ordered to leave.

"After the results of the review came out, I also troubled Lord Huo to send someone to inform the old man."

"That's nature."

Before Gu Wei came, the housekeeper explained to her what happened, so she didn't say anything after she came, and just left with Huo Hanyi in a regular manner.

Huo Hanyi came to arrest Gu Wei, and there was no need to stay if he caught someone, so he left directly with Gu Wei.

Not long after the group left, Du Ruofeng, who was suspended at home, came to find him.

"Dad, what's going on?"

"I can't wait too long."

"Erniang, she ......"

"It doesn't matter, it's me who really wants to move, your second mother is just a bridge, you can't wait."

"Then we ......"

"The case of King Wu's assassination is not yet fruitful, there should be a result, the emperor was bewitched by traitorous ministers, and it is time to clear the king's side."

……

King Wu has been recuperating from his injuries in the inn, and the emperor said that he would try his best to investigate the injury to him, but he never gave a result.

King Wu is not in a hurry, anyway, he is seriously injured and can't leave, so he recuperates his injuries so slowly.

looked at the two ears and didn't hear what was going on outside the window, but everything that happened outside was reported to him.

"Du Zhen's second wife was arrested?" Wu Wang half leaned on the bamboo couch by the window, looking at the branches swaying in the wind outside the window, holding a cup and a cup, his face full of wantonness.

"Yes, Lord Wang."

"Heh......" King Wu chuckled, picked up the cup in his hand and took a sip, "Du Zhen is afraid that he will not be able to hold back, this will move his wife, not to mention, this ninth brother of this king is really a little capable, and it is difficult for him to be so full of wings under the nose of Du Zhen, an old fox." This fight is really fierce and exciting, I don't know how long Du Zhen, the old fox, can endure his temperament. ”

"Lord Wang, are we going to move?"

"Don't be in a hurry, let them fight again, it's best to lose both. See what they need, we will give them what they need, and make sure they kill a little more fiercely. ”

"Yes."

……

Du Zhen and King Wu were both making their own calculations, but in the middle of the night, there was news in the palace that the emperor had been poisoned.

Last time, it was the prince who was poisoned, but this time it turned out to be the emperor's poisoning.

However, they are all just rumors, and there is no exact news, but the Wei family, a family of imperial doctors, sent the family into the palace overnight, what else needs to be explained?

In particular, the palace recruited Gu Qin into the palace overnight.

"Dad, why is Your Majesty poisoned? Could it be a trap? When he received the news, Du Ruofeng was full of suspicions.

"Don't worry, isn't it a trap, your aunt and your sister will have news in the palace later." Du Zhen was a little worried, but also a little excited.

Ji Chengye was poisoned at this time, and it was like God helping him.

"If it's true, what are we going to do?"

"Don't rush, observe first and see the situation. However, all parties should be vigilant and act at any time. ”

"Okay, Dad."

At the post house, King Wu also received the news.

"So coincidentally?" King Wu was a little puzzled, "Li Gui, do you say that the ninth brother of this king is self-directed and acted like this king, or was he calculated by Du Zhen's old fox?" ”

"The subordinates can't guess it, and the subordinates think it's possible."

"The people of our Ji family are really ruthless to themselves." King Wu sighed, "The king of Heng and Zhu is a vassal king, look at it first, and you must pay close attention." ”

"Yes."

……

On this night, the entire Imperial Palace did not sleep, or should it be said that the entire Kyoto magnates did not sleep, and the emperor was poisoned, which is not a joke.

Early the next morning, the hundred officials hurriedly entered the palace early, and there was no way to get the news last night, so they had to go to verify it today.

When it was time for the last dynasty, the hundred officials entered the Jinluan Hall on time.

However, they didn't see the emperor, it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, a six-year-old child, or a child who said before that there were sequelae after poisoning.

But no matter what, it's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Baiguan, you look at me, I look at you, and finally knelt on the ground together, "The ministers see His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Chitose Chitose Chitose." ”

Changde asked people to put a silver chair on the lower left side of the dragon chair, and then helped the prince Ji Yan to sit on it.

Ji Yan didn't come out alone, in addition to Changde following him, there was another person who followed him, and that was Gu Qin.

When the hundred officials knelt on the ground, Gu Qin also knelt down on one side, but leaned on Ji Yan's side.

After Changde helped Ji Yan to sit down, he took out the holy decree from his arms, "Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, this is my early morning preparation to deal with emergencies, if I can't go to court one day, the prince will supervise the country, and the prince and the prime minister Gu Qin will assist, and all officials need to obey, Qin this." ”

This holy decree was heard by hundreds of officials, they didn't expect His Majesty to trust Gu Qin to this point, and what is called being prepared early in the morning to deal with emergencies, isn't it that Your Majesty knows that something will happen?

"The ministers obey the order, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a thousand years old." No matter what the officials think in their hearts, the will must still be respectfully received.
