Chapter 458: Poisoning

An Yihou has been pestered by Hong Chuanting, the secretary of the Ministry of War, to select young generals every day for the past two days, if An Yihou would not be so nervous in the past, now it is different, understanding these generals is a help to Song Chengxuan, and the most important thing is that the Zhang family is also taking advantage of this opportunity to win over officials, in case he is really accidentally mixed into the Zhang family, he will become a troublemaker in the future, and the Zhang family has been dealing with him for many years, he is familiar with the number of the Zhang family, and today he found two suspicious people in Hong Chuanting's list.

In addition, he also asked people to inform the deputy generals in northern Xinjiang that there is movement in the southeast now, and they should be more cautious, so as not to let anyone take the opportunity to cause chaos.

When it comes to the situation in the Greater Periphery, the most worrying thing is the northwest.

Since the Marquis of Guangping returned to the northwest, the war reports in the northwest were directly presented to the emperor in the form of secret music, saying that it was to let the marquis of Guangping go back to the merits, but in fact, strict precautions, the imperial court did not allow the marquis of Guangping to have correspondence with outsiders, and it would be more troublesome to inquire about the news of the northwest, so in the past few days, Marquis An Yihou only sighed that he lacked skills, and I am afraid that some places can not be taken into account.

Sure enough, as soon as he got out of a pile of affairs, he heard movement outside.

Fortunately, with Song Chengxuan here, An Yihou didn't have to rush outside to ask for news.

Song Chengxuan said: "Those who are making trouble outside are the people who came out of the Usizang Division. ”

An Yihou frowned: "These people disturb the capital, could it be that they want to save that Huijing?" "In this way, I'm afraid that the criminal department is not very peaceful.

Thinking of this, An Yihou couldn't sit still, but fortunately, the criminal department was heavily guarded, and it seemed that Song Chengxuan and they had already taken precautions, even if Huijing and those people had plans, it would be difficult to do it.

Song Chengxuan said: "They also went to the Eldest Princess's Mansion, wanting to find out the battle of the former emperor to pacify the northwest. ”

The first emperor won a great victory in this battle, but it was a pity that the family of King An of the Fan Song Panwei, King An defended the city, and on the day of being broken by the enemy, all the people in the city were slaughtered, and the worst was the family of King An and the generals around him, the bodies of the female dependents were killed and hung naked on the city wall, and the heads of men were carried by long poles to show the public.

Later, when the first emperor recaptured the city and collected the corpses in the city, he found that King An's head was missing, and later learned that King An's head was taken by the eldest son of the king of Tubo to remove the flesh and make it into a urinal, so as to insult the royal family of the Great Zhou.

Song Chengxuan raised his eyes: "Does Master Hou know how King Jingjun died?" ”

King Jingjun died of illness on the way back to Beijing, which is a well-known thing, but since Song Chengxuan asked him so, it means that King Jingjun's death is not as simple as it seems.

An Yihou carefully recalled: "I had just entered the military camp at that time, the official position was not high, and I had not yet been incorporated into the elite cavalry of the emperor, the emperor was anxious to enter Beijing to restore his life, and took a team of elites to go first, and we were about a day's journey away, when we heard the news, the king of Jingjun was seriously ill, and the emperor had to stop and order people to find Langzhong. ”

Song Chengxuan said: "Hou Ye can see the seriously ill Jing Wangye? ”

An Yihou nodded: "At that time, Prince Jing couldn't speak or eat anything, and the emperor personally fed him rice soup, and the rice soup just vomited out of his stomach." ”

He saw it with his own eyes.

Song Chengxuan heard this and said, "It looks like poisoning? ”

An Yihou said: "The invited Lang Zhong said that it was not like poisoning, because a few days before returning to Beijing, King Jingjun had already begun to be in poor spirits, did not think about eating and drinking, and no poison could take so long to attack." ”

As soon as An Yihou said this, the steward came in and said, "Uncle Lei is back." ”

Uncle Lei walked into the room quickly: "The Eldest Princess's Mansion has settled down for the time being. "Uncle Lei carefully told An Yihou and Song Chengxuan what happened in the eldest princess's mansion.

When An Yihou heard the eldest princess say that the king of Jingjun and the princess of Jingjun did not die of illness, but died at the hands of the former emperor, he couldn't help but be stunned, and immediately looked at Song Chengxuan.

King Jingjun was getting thinner and thinner, the medicine stone was useless, and in the end he was already very weak, and when he died, he was also extremely painful, and his whole body was curled up in a ball.

"After King Jingjun fell ill, the military medical workers should record the pulse case," Song Chengxuan looked at An Yihou, "Do you remember that after returning to Beijing, did the imperial court check the medical case?" ”

"Yes," An Yihou said, "It is a major event that King Jingjun died of illness on the way, and before the coffin entered Beijing, Emperor Zhongzong had already asked the Tai Hospital, Zongzheng Temple and Zhongguan to come to pick him up, and the Ministry of Rites pretended to bury the body of King Jingjun, so the army was delayed for a day or two. ”

That is to say, even if it is poisoned, it is very hidden, so that people can't see the clues at a glance, this matter is very important, no one dares to question it without conclusive evidence, and the most important thing is that King Jingjun's symptoms are indeed like illness.

"Miss."

The steward's voice interrupted Song Chengxuan's thoughts.

Feng Xiao stepped forward to open the curtain, and Xu Qinghuan walked in.

The atmosphere in the room was a little depressing, Xu Qinghuan looked at her father, her father had been so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground in the past two days, and the whole person looked a little tired, she went to look at Song Chengxuan again, her eyes were facing each other, she seemed to see a worried look in Song Chengxuan's eyes, but this emotion flashed, and then it became a pitch black that people couldn't see through.

Xu Qinghuan's heart jumped, Song Chengxuan is good at self-control, it is difficult to see the clues from his face on weekdays, what is wrong today?

Xu Qinghuan said: "Are my father and Lord Song talking about the king and princess of Jingjun?" ”

"You know, too?" An Yihou looked at his daughter in surprise.

Xu Qinghuan nodded: "After encountering that case in the Eldest Princess's Mansion, I asked Lord Huang and the prince of Shunyang County to check the documents, whether it is the Jingjun Mansion or the Jiashan Eldest Princess's Mansion, there has been no drowning, and the things that cannot be found on the surface are all secrets of great importance."

Looking at the appearance of the eldest princess of Jiashan trembling and not daring to tell the truth, you can speculate that the problem should appear in the husband and wife of the king of Jingjun, because it is unreasonable for Jiashan to be named a princess, the first emperor's move is like a sympathy for the queen of Jingjun, but in fact, it is to cut off the heir of the king of Jingjun, and the eldest princess of Jiashan is named a princess, which is equivalent to pinching the future, marriage, and descendants of the eldest princess in the palm of her hand.

King Jingjun knew a fatal thing, the first emperor had to get rid of him to prevent future troubles, I suspect it is related to the death of King An, Huijing resents the emperor so much, he may be the heir of an insider, it is because of this that Huijing asked me to check his life experience.

Huijing is not afraid of death at all, and he will not confess who the person behind him is, he always has only one purpose, to let everyone in the world know the true face of the first emperor, he wants to take revenge, take revenge on the first emperor and the emperor of this dynasty. ”

This revenge has now begun.

Xu Qinghuan looked at Song Chengxuan after speaking: "I don't know what the emperor will do when he hears about it." ”

Song Chengxuan's eyes were calm at this time, without any waves, and he said lightly: "He can only do stupid things." ”

After Song Chengxuan said this, he saw that Feng Xiao served a cup of hot tea to Xu Qinghuan, he frowned slightly and said, "Change a cup of white water, the eldest lady's body has not healed, and it is not suitable to drink tea." ”
