"Poisoning?!"

Everyone was shocked, Wang De and the servants were already shaking like chaff, the emperor's poisoning was not a trivial matter, and all the people who were serving around him had to be involved, and it was not good to make a mess and fall to the ground directly.

"Dare to ask your lordship, what kind of poison did Your Majesty get into, and how?" Wang De plucked up the courage to ask.

"This ...... Wechen didn't know. The court had to answer truthfully, in fact, the poisoning was just their speculation.

"Poisoning is not a trivial matter, and adults can't speculate." Wang Deyi pointed to the way.

"Your Majesty, the poisoning theory is just a speculation of Wei Chen and others, or maybe Your Majesty has been tired and angry for a long time, and it is not known." The Imperial Doctor said again.

"Perhaps? Don't know? Emperor Zhengxuan was depressed, "What's the use of raising you imperial doctors!" ”

"Your Majesty forgives your sins......" for a while, the voices of the guilty plea were endless, sometimes mixed with the court's judgment: "Do not be angry" consolation.

Emperor Zhengxuan couldn't get angry, and he couldn't really kill all the imperial doctors, so he calmed down his breathing several times before he said, "You just say, is my body important?" ”

"Judging from the pulse, there is indeed no major problem," the court said, "The ministers will discuss a recipe for conditioning for Your Majesty, and it will be good to raise it for a while." ”

Emperor Zhengxuan finally nodded, and asked again: "...... poisoning you just said?"

"This is a speculation by Wei Chen and others...... "The imperial doctors regretted that they had just raised the possibility of poisoning, and they were busy thinking about changing their words.

Emperor Zhengxuan was unwilling to let it go: "Since there is such speculation, you can't let it go, Wang De." ”

"The minions are here."

"You work with the Imperial Physician's Department to find out for me."

"Yes." Wang De received the order, and sweated in his heart, it seems that there is going to be a wave in this inner court.

Everyone finally retreated, Emperor Zhengxuan Fang Jue's mood calmed down a bit, and the queen and a group of concubines hurried to visit when they heard the news, Emperor Zhengxuan only called the queen into the palace, and he was really relieved about the poisoning that the imperial doctor said.

"Your Majesty, how is your body, Your Majesty?" The queen's face was full of anxiety, and she didn't seem to be a fake.

"It's okay for the time being", Emperor Zhengxuan said, "I called you here because I have something to explain to the queen." ”

"But please command, Your Majesty." The queen said respectfully.

"You are the master of the six palaces, and the discipline of this harem should also be cleaned up, you go to check, what are the dishonest palace maids and eunuchs, and find out all of them."

The queen was shocked: "What does Your Majesty mean ......?" ”

"Purge the harem, under my nose, there is no more personal deed." Emperor Zhengxuan said in a deep voice.

"The concubines understand, Your Majesty can rest assured", the queen bowed and said, "It's just that Your Majesty is uneasy, and the concubines in the harem have to take turns to serve the sick." ”

"Hmm", Emperor Zhengxuan nodded, "You go and arrange it." ”

Since then, the inner court has set off a storm of investigation, from the front of the palace to the harem, everyone has been checked, countless palace maids and eunuchs have been killed, and the people in front of the palace have almost changed a round, and everyone is in danger for a while, but there is still no trace of poisoning.

The imperial doctors tried their best to recuperate for Emperor Zhengxuan, and many precious tonics were used, and Emperor Zhengxuan looked at it without hindrance, but only the imperial doctors themselves knew that His Majesty's pulse was still the same, and the cause of vomiting blood was not found, and the disease could not be cured from the root.

Although Emperor Zhengxuan didn't vomit blood anymore, he felt weaker and weaker day by day these days, and his own body and himself also felt something, and his heart became more and more anxious.

At present, the crown prince and the eldest prince are opposed, the court situation is uneasy, and there are remnants of the previous dynasty in turmoil.

There is also Prince Qing who is far away in Xingping, can he really hold one side and have no idea about the throne? In fact, since Emperor Zhengxuan won the throne, he has been afraid of his own brother-in-law, and he has never really believed that he has no quarrel with the world.

At this moment, maybe the time has come, or maybe it is because of his poor health, so that Emperor Zhengxuan finally made up his mind that it was time to get rid of this hidden danger that had existed for many years.

According to the custom of the Great Zhou, after the Mid-Autumn Festival every year, you will go to the temple to worship the ancestors, at that time the emperor will select a group of ministers of the clan to accompany you, and the accompanying ancestors are also regarded as an honor, in previous years, Zhao Mingxu has never had this honor.

"In half a month, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival." Looking at the Buddhist scriptures presented by Xingping, Emperor Zhengxuan asked the queen serving beside him softly.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the weather is getting cooler day by day."

"How are the preparations for the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

"It's all ready," replied the queen, "but Your Majesty's health is not yet complete, so why don't you let the prince go on your behalf this year." ”

"No, I want to go in person, and the prince will accompany me", Emperor Zhengxuan said, "I have to call someone." ”

"Someone is coming", Emperor Zhengxuan shouted.

Immediately, someone stepped forward to wait for the order, and Emperor Zhengxuan said in a deep voice: "Spread my will, ask Prince Qing to return to Beijing, and participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival with me to worship my ancestors." ”

"Yes."

"Also", Emperor Zhengxuan said again, "With the Imperial Forest Army passing the decree, if the Prince of Qing hesitates and refuses to come, he will be killed." ”

“…… It was," he tried to hide the tremor in his voice, and the inner supervisor took the order and left.

It is already the beginning of August, less than half a month before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the will is naturally to spread to Xingping as soon as possible.

On the sixth day of the eighth month, Zhao Mingxu received the decree, looked at the soldiers who accompanied the decree, and knew it in his heart, and accepted the decree without the slightest hesitation.

"Childe ......" in the inner hall, Ace was a little worried.

"Brother Huang can't wait", Zhao Mingxu said, "It's okay if I stay by his side, it won't arouse suspicion, and it will be more justified when the time comes." ”

"Several of our people have been sent out of the palace, and the rest of them are very inconvenient to pass on the news, only saying that the emperor seems to be sick, and if the prince goes to obey the order at this time, I am afraid it will be ......."

"Rest assured, everything is planned, and you just have to do what you planned." Zhao Mingxu settled down as soon as he could, hastily packed his things, and followed him to Beijing.

On August 12, Prince Qing officially arrived in Beijing. On the day he arrived in Beijing, he was summoned into the palace by Emperor Zhengxuan, and on the grounds of tiring travel, he asked Prince Qing to rest for a long time, and when the Mid-Autumn Festival arrived, he would travel together to worship the sky.

Prince Qing did not feel the slightest displeasure and obeyed his orders respectfully.

The news reached Cishou Palace, and the Queen Mother heard that Prince Qing was ordered to accompany him to worship his ancestors, and now he was resting in the palace, and immediately the tea cup in his hand fell to the ground.

"Someone." The queen was solemn and hurried to the Xingqing Palace.

Emperor Zhengxuan got up to greet him, but the Queen Mother completely ignored the servants and concubines present, and scolded her head and face: "Emperor, what do you want to do?" ”
