Chapter 139: Rebellion
"Then go to the emperor and say." Zhang Qian was unconvinced.
At this time, Concubine De was already dying, and she didn't even have the strength to raise her head, she didn't understand why she would find poison in her residence, and even Zhang Qian, who was good on weekdays, was so ruthless at this time, she finally felt the heat and coldness of the world, thinking that when she came to the palace, she would be able to live a good life, but she didn't expect that the palace was a place where people eat people and don't spit out bones.
Concubine De feels that her life is over, so why not die now? It's just that at this moment, Zuo Tingxue, who she used to be-for-tat, actually pleaded for her, her eyes were warm, and tears came out of her eyes.
Zuo Tingxue heard Concubine De's low crying, and her heart became even more uneasy: "Come on, go and call the emperor over, if anyone can be privately punished, then what do you need the criminal department to do?" ”
A dark light flashed in Zhang Qian's eyes, but she didn't speak.
Zuo Tingxue ordered: "Lock up Concubine De first, let the imperial doctor treat her injuries, and wait for the emperor to come, and then talk about this matter." ”
The guards dragged Concubine De down, and Zhang Qian didn't stay long.
On the way, the maid behind Zhang Qian didn't understand after thinking about it, so she asked: "The slave doesn't understand something, why do you put the poison in Concubine De's room instead of the queen's room?" ”
Zhang Qian's steps were gentle, the skirt was embroidered with jasmine pressers, she looked extremely delicate, and her eyes were faint: "The emperor is very fond of Zuo Tingxue now, let her room, the emperor will definitely not believe it easily, and order someone to investigate thoroughly." ”
"That's right, the slave maid also thinks that Cui Zhi and the queen have such a good relationship, and no one will believe it."
Zhang Qian nodded: "As for Concubine De, she is usually arrogant and unscrupulous, and she has grievances with Cui Zhi, so it is best to choose her." ”
The maid laughed: "Concubine De asked for herself, but when the emperor comes back, won't that give Concubine De a chance?" ”
Zhang Qian's eyes sharpened: "Naturally, I won't let her have this opportunity to wait until the emperor comes back." ”
An autumn wind blew, blurring the voices of the two men.
After Zuo Tingxue returned to Zhaoyang Courtyard, she was always uneasy, and Xiao Min also came over, and said worriedly: "The emperor has not been in the palace for the past two days, but it has made the concubine arrogant." ”
Zuo Tingxue asked Xiao Min to serve tea, and said: "She won't be proud for long, such a big thing happened, the emperor has to rush back as soon as possible." ”
Zuo Tingxue said and handed Xiao Min a cup of tea, "Don't think too much, drink a cup of tea, and go to work later." ”
As soon as Zuo Tingxue said this, Xiao Min naturally knew that Zuo Tingxue was going to give her a task, she took the tea and drank it, and then felt a little wrong and said, "Huh? The taste of this tea...... The slave and maid had never drunk it, and it seemed to have the sweet smell of rice. Xiao Min took a sip of hot tea and felt that the taste of this tea was very fragrant.
"Do you think it tastes good?" Jiu'er on the side smiled slyly, "This is the brown rice tea made by the queen herself." ”
Xiao Min also felt fresh when she heard the name Brown Rice Tea, so she asked, "The slave has never heard of Brown Rice Tea?" How is this done? ”
Zuo Tingxue covered her mouth and smiled, explaining: "Xiaomin, you have been busy doing the task I gave you these days, and you don't know this yet!" This brown rice tea is made of rice as raw material, soaked, steamed, stir-fried and other processes made of brown rice and green tea, although I made it not very authentic, but also maintains the natural aroma of tea, and adds the aroma of fried rice, do you think the taste is mellow and palatable? ”
"That's right, the slave just thinks this tea is delicious." Xiao Min nodded hurriedly.
On the second day, Concubine De died in the room, there was no evidence in this case, Concubine De had also confessed, and no one could prove Concubine De's innocence.
It's strange to say, the usual Zuo Tingxue will definitely investigate this matter clearly, but today's Zuo Tingxue knows that there is something strange about this matter, but she pretends not to know!?
In the afternoon of this day, Feng Jinyi was full of spring breeze, he walked briskly to Zhaoyang Courtyard, Ma Gonggong was holding a tray, covered with a yellow cloth, and he followed closely behind.
Zuo Tingxue and the others hurriedly saluted when they saw Feng Jinyi, Feng Jinyi helped Zuo Tingxue up, and said with a smile: "Aifei, look at what I have brought you." ”
Ma Gonggong hurriedly lifted the cloth on the end plate, and then handed it over, the thing on the plate is oval, orange yellow, covered with thorns, this thing at first glance, just like papaya, the difference is that it is covered with thorns?
"What is this?" Zuo Tingxue had never seen such a thing, and asked curiously.
"Aifei, this is a ginseng fruit." Feng Jinyi said and asked Ma Gonggong to remove the skin of the ginseng.
"What is ginseng fruit, and can you eat this thing?" Zuo Tingxue has never seen this thing, a little skeptical?
Feng Jinyi smiled and helped Zuo Tingxue sit down, "Ginseng fruit is an uncommon fruit, many people don't know about ginseng fruit, ginseng fruit has high nutritional value and efficacy, and ginseng fruit is suitable for many people to eat, and the peculiar looking ginseng fruit is a fruit loved by many people." ”
Zuo Tingxue smiled slightly when she heard this, "Then what is the effect of this ginseng fruit?" ”
"Ginseng fruit has the effect of skin care and beauty, it is very good for skin whitening, ginseng fruit can also promote digestion, enhance physical fitness, effectively enhance the overall quality of the body, improve the body's immunity, it also has the effect of antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, for the symptoms of poor sleep, it can also be improved, so that you can have a comfortable sleep, ginseng fruit can also play a role in cleaning up the intestines, for the body in the harmful substances can be discharged from the body at the fastest speed, to create a healthy environment, It can also play a role in prolonging life, which is very good for the elderly, and can also be eaten for children, which can enhance the elements needed for the development of children. ”
"Is this thing really that amazing?" Zuo Tingxue still looked at Feng Jinyi in disbelief.
"Of course, this ginseng fruit is a natural drink for children's growth and development, and children who are growing up especially need to supplement some nutrients, which can promote brain development, enhance bone health, increase appetite, and make children smart and strong in the process of growth, so ginseng fruit is a natural nutrition for children's growth and development!"
At this time, Ma Gonggong came over with a bowl, and the flesh in the ginseng fruit was the thing in the bowl, and the thing was like passion fruit, exuding a faint fragrance.
"Queen Mother, you taste it, this ginseng fruit is delicious." Ma Gonggong said and handed over the bowl in his hand.
Zuo Tingxue picked up the spoon and tasted it, the taste was sweet and fragrant, she nodded with satisfaction, and then frowned, "Why does this thing smell of honey?" ”
Feng Jinyi kept staring at Zuo Tingxue, and said with a smile when she heard her question: "Aifei, the way to eat this ginseng fruit is to add honey to be delicious." ”
"But this sweet thing, eating too much of this is not good for the elderly?"
"Ginseng fruit is a rare sugar-free fruit, so it is very suitable for the elderly to eat, and it has the ability to promote intestinal digestion, excellent detoxification effect, and is also good news for constipation patients. Feng Jinyi happily explained.
Zuo Tingxue was also very happy, the two talked and laughed, and the atmosphere seemed very harmonious.
……………………………
The pace of winter is approaching, the cold wind is whining, there is silence everywhere, the moon has gone down, the sun has not yet risen, and the east is only slightly shining.
In the Tanglin Palace, Zhang Kai and Wan'er had already returned, and during their absence, Lin Yu and the Lin family had already collapsed the opponents in the palace.
Even Concubine Lin was sent to the cold palace for the crime of murdering the prince, and committed suicide in the cold palace!!
Wan'er naturally doesn't believe in this kind of thing, but Concubine Lin is already dead, and she can't find any evidence if she doesn't believe it!
And Concubine Lin and the Lin family have already colluded with the national teacher to rebel and want to take Tanglin, because the national teacher is secretly practicing evil arts, so he has been using Concubine Lin, and the props for him to practice evil arts are human blood.
At this time, a pair of people came out of the palace that had just been calm for a few days, they went straight to the east, came to the East Palace, and stopped, and the East Palace was not occupied by anyone else, it was the crown prince Zhang Huaiyu.
The adulterous concubine Lin Yu discussed a plan with the national teacher, and began to induce Zhang Kai, Lin Yu drunk Zhang Kai, and used her sullen charm to induce Zhang Kai, and when Zhang Kai was rising, the national teacher stepped forward to participate in a copy.
He said that he had recently found out that the uneasy thing in the palace was that the queen Wan'er was making trouble in the middle, and the queen saw that Zhang Kai was not pampering her, and she was afraid that the future position would not be guaranteed, so she wanted to plot to usurp the throne and let the prince ascend the throne.
At first, the concubine Lin Yu wanted Zhang Kai to write down the queen and the prince for death, but the national teacher thought about it, the queen was the phoenix among the people, and the prince inherited the throne in the future, that is, the dragon among the people, maybe one of them is, a certain immortal in the sky has gone through the nether tribulation, this kind of people's blood, one can be better than ten ordinary people, so in order to make himself practice magic as soon as possible, the national teacher found an excuse to persuade the concubine to dispel the idea of giving death, first grounded in the cold palace, and assured the concubine that he would quietly solve them in the future, without the concubine worrying.
The drunk Zhang Kai was not very sober-minded, and the national teacher used evil magic to cast spells on the side, he was like a child of a few years old, he believed what others said, and under the joint efforts of the two, he induced Zhang Kai to write an edict to abolish the queen and the prince.
The abolition of the queen and the abolition of the prince was a major event of a country, and it instantly caused a sensation in Dongling, and the next morning everyone came early, and began to discuss, with the chief eunuch shouting, "The emperor has arrived." Zhang Kai came to the Golden Palace, walked up to the dragon chair and sat down, while the national teacher followed aside.
The ministers knelt down one after another to pay respects, and at this time, Tao Wencan, the prime minister of Tanglin, did not kneel, only to see his eyes dull, his face was serious, and he stood there motionless, as if he was distracted.
Tao Wencan is the pair of brothers who were saved on the street by Yue'er and Concubine Xiao seven years ago, the two of them came to Tanglin, relying on their own efforts, and their military exploits, his younger brother Tao Wenbin died in the war to save Zhang Kai, in order to reward the two, Zhang Kai made Tao Wencan the prime minister.
The national teacher kept looking at the prime minister unpleasantly, so he said: "Prime minister, the emperor is here, why don't you kneel?" ”
Tao Wencan still stood there and didn't speak, the emperor waved his hand to signal the national teacher not to say anything, he didn't blame the prime minister, he shouted flat, the ministers got up one after another, and the eunuch said: "If there is something to play early, there is nothing to retreat." ”
At this time, the prime minister, who had not moved, suddenly shouted loudly: "Minister, there is a book to play." He suddenly shouted, causing Zhang Kai to stand up from the dragon chair in fright.
The eunuch shouted: "Bold Prime Minister, you have shocked you." ”
Prime Minister Tao Wencan looked at the eunuch with a vicious look, and the eunuch subconsciously immediately closed his mouth, Zhang Kai sat down and asked, "What does the prime minister want to play?" ”
