Chapter 779 - Why Not Chapter 780 - Failure and Failure

Hongluan looked at the faces of the two concubines and smiled secretly in her heart, they should have expected that Concubine Xian and Concubine Hui would do what they did today, because no one in the world is willing to be a chess piece or an abandoned child - according to what the imperial concubine said, if everyone has her duty, then there will not be so much trouble, maybe this is the experience of the imperial concubine's life, but if you want to let Ru Xing'er and her wait for death in the palace slave courtyard, and let the two concubines live in the cold palace for most of their lives, how can they keep the so-called "duty".

If she were the imperial concubine, would she really be able to wait for death in the palace slave courtyard without regrets? Can you be willing to be an outcast and wait to spend the years to come in the cold palace? Hongluan didn't believe it, so she also firmly believed that she didn't do anything wrong, and Concubine Xian didn't do anything wrong.

The families of Concubine Li and Concubine Rou are now divided into two factions, and if there is no support from the family, Concubine Xian and Concubine Xian will not tear their faces with the two concubines in public; Based on this alone, even if the two of them obey the orders of the Queen Mother in everything, they are afraid that they will not be able to do great things. Internal strife is quite internal friction, and the two major families are afraid that they will have no time to take care of it because of this: how many powerful families in history have prospered because of external enemies and declined due to internal strife.

Concubine Rou got up: "The palace also thinks that what Concubine Xian said is reasonable, it is unlikely that Hongluan will poison Concubine Hua, and please think twice about the Empress Dowager." She immediately stood with Concubine Xian at this time, not because she wanted to shake hands with Concubine Xian, but to avoid damage to the family because of this.

At least she and Concubine Xian have the same purpose, so the family will not have trouble because of the two of them, so who is the main person in the palace, and who can become the family's talisman and talisman in the future depends on their own abilities.

The emperor nodded lightly: "Concubine Rou has always been reasonable. A cold light flashed in his lowered eyes, and he glanced at Concubine Rou more than once. Being able to react so quickly at the moment is impossible for an extremely smart and calm person to do, and Concubine Rou has been too underestimated over the years.

Concubine Rou looked at Hongluan and smiled: "This palace and Hongluan can be said to have the earliest relationship, and this palace also believes in her character and believes that she will not kill." This is not what can be compared with the sentence just now, it has already shown in front of the Empress Dowager that she and her family will only obey the emperor's orders in the future.

The Empress Dowager's face became normal, no anger, no anxiety and worry: "The imperial doctors said that Concubine Hua's death may really have another hidden meaning, but the tea was poured by Hongluan, and there was no palace people to help and no one was by her side, so it can't be said that she has nothing to do with Concubine Hua's death." ”

Concubine Li just sat there with a dark face and did not move, she did not agree with the words of the Empress Dowager, nor did she agree with the words of the Emperor or the Empress Dowager. Her eyes swept over her son, daughter-in-law, and Concubine Hui from time to time, and the gloom in her eyes became heavier and heavier, obviously her mind was no longer on Concubine Hua's affairs.

She didn't have such an emperor, but the empress dowager looked at her twice, obviously dissatisfied. Although no one dares to say the thoughts of Concubine Li, there are not a few people in the palace who understand, so she has always been more deferential to the Empress Dowager than Concubine Rou, but at this time she clearly forgot the Empress Dowager - if King Fu ascends the throne as the emperor, she is the Queen Mother, the biological mother of King Fu, and the Queen Mother will also give her three points of face at that time.

It seems that Concubine Li knows this, but she shouldn't reveal it at this time, which makes the Queen Mother very unhappy.

King Fu spoke in time: "Brother thinks ......"

"The younger brother thinks that it is too early to conclude that Hongluan killed Concubine Hua, but because the tea was made and served by Hongluan alone—if someone wants to frame Hongluan, how can so many teacups in the tearoom know which one Hongluan will use? Therefore, Xiao Wang thinks that it is still possible for Hongluan to poison Concubine Hua, of course, he must check it carefully, and don't wronged good people. King Kang came in from outside the hall and saluted the Empress Dowager and the Emperor and Empress.

King Fu's brows furrowed: "Third brother......"

King Kang turned around and looked at King Fu and bared his teeth: "Second Emperor Brother, today I went to your palace to ask for a glass of wine to eat, only to know that you and your sister-in-law entered the palace, chased in and wanted to ask the emperor for wine and food with you, but our brothers haven't eaten together for some days, and I didn't expect to hear that Concubine Hua died." He sighed: "You can't drink wine, come and see if there is anything that can help." ”

Speaking of this, he turned back to the emperor again and saluted: "Your Majesty, you must pay attention to the dragon body, don't be too anxious, and don't be too sad." If there is something that the younger brother can help, please ask the emperor to instruct you, your third brother is now grown up and can share your worries. He clenched his fists hard.

The emperor looked at him, looked straight at him for a long time, and waved his hand: "Give him a seat." "He hasn't seen King Kang for some days, because King Kang is active and young, and he doesn't go to court every day. When I saw him today, I suddenly found that the third emperor brother he loved had really grown up, and he was no longer the naughty child who dragged him to roast and eat the birds of Concubine Rou.

He was a little uncomfortable, because King Kang seemed to have grown up suddenly in front of his eyes.

After thanking the emperor, King Kang sat down, and said a few jokes to make the empress dowager happy, and his behavior was no different from his original.

The Empress Dowager shook her head and sighed, beckoned King Kang over, took his hand and said, "Where does the mourning family still have the heart to laugh now?" Your filial piety and mourning family know, and I am already a lot happier to see your mourning family. Just sit here with the mourning family, don't go back to eat at night, having a meal with the mourning family is your greatest filial piety. ”

King Kang held the hand of the Empress Dowager: "As long as the Empress Dowager is happy, our brother would like to eat and drink with you every day, but after a long time, you will annoy us again." The Empress Dowager, you are not happy, no one in the whole palace, inside and outside the court will be happy, I will be worried, and the imperial brothers will also be worried. In the evening, the emperor, the second emperor and the three of us will accompany you to dinner, okay? As long as you smile, our three brothers have nothing to worry about. ”

When the Empress Dowager heard this, she glanced at the emperor and then at King Fu: "Of course, it's good that your brothers are willing to accompany the mourning family, but not everyone has this leisure." She patted King Kang's hand: "Okay, the mourning family will not restrict you from eating and drinking for a while, now let the mourning family deal with Concubine Hua's affairs first." ”

She sighed and looked at the emperor: "Does the emperor have a way?" Even if the medicine in Qinglu Palace is a little different from the poison in Concubine Hua, but in the end, there is no one else suspicious except her, and the mourning family really can't imagine that there will be anyone who wants to harm the queen and Concubine Hua. When she mentioned the queen, she still believed that it was Hongluan who killed Concubine Hua.

The emperor looked at the concubines: "Do you have any ideas?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.

Concubine Li got up: "This palace thinks that what the Empress Dowager said is reasonable, and now only Hongluan is likely to do it, and the difference between the medicine may only be understood by the person who makes it, right?" There are no mistakes in many words, there have always been no fools in the palace, and there will be no one who leaves the poison by his side after poisoning and let people take the handle, but if you want to continue to poison, there are other ways to avoid being suspected, so it is not incomprehensible that the medicine is different. ”

King Fu frowned: "Mother, it is a matter of two lives......" He didn't expect that Concubine Li had to ask him to follow the original path, and even at this time he did not hesitate to tear his face with the emperor - Concubine Li was forcing him.

Concubine Li interrupted King Fu's words: "It's better for you not to ask about the affairs in the palace, you have already left the palace to build a mansion, and you are too much of a brother to manage the emperor's family affairs, which will make people criticize." After she finished speaking, her gaze swept over Hongluan.

Hongluan smiled: "What Concubine Li said is extremely reasonable, just like Concubine Ning just now didn't she say something indecent to the prince?" It doesn't count for me, a small palace person, but if it is passed on to the prince, I am afraid that it will not be very good. After she finished speaking, she looked at Concubine Ning: "Concubine Ning, don't you say it again to Concubine Li?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.

Concubine Li immediately understood when she heard this, her face immediately became extremely ugly, and she glared at Concubine Ning and sat down indignantly: she had just shown favor to the Empress Dowager and Concubine Ning, and now she learned that Concubine Ning had splashed dirty water on her son's body, and this matter would soon spread throughout the palace, and she would become a ridiculous person who repaid her grievances with virtue and wanted to climb to the official family and not even want to be decent.

Being able to get the help of the Shangguan family is the key to what she and her father believe can do, originally the Shangguan family wanted to marry their daughter over with such a meaning, but King Fu suddenly repented, for the daughter of General Han, even the big position, her mother, and her grandfather, uncle and others who had worked for him for so many years were left behind, how could she not be angry?

It's not that she hasn't heard of the abomination of the Shangguan family, but it doesn't matter what happens, as long as she can let her son ascend to the big treasure in the future, then she will want to get rid of the Shangguan family; Her Hu family will be the number one family in the Celestial Empire in the future, if the Shangguan family is interested, it will be fine, if not, her son is not as easy to bully as the current emperor.

But today's Ning Concubine's hatefulness obviously made her not expect, and for a while, she almost didn't breathe, and she didn't know if she could say anything more, so she just closed her mouth.

The emperor looked at King Fu: "Concubine Xian and Concubine Hui are generally knowledgeable, and I am unforgettable to Concubine Hua, so I can only love you a little more when you and her are sisters; After a few days, Concubine Hua's affairs are over, and I want to personally crown you as concubines, in order to repay my feelings for Concubine Hua's thoughts. ”

Concubine Ning's body trembled: "Your Majesty, Concubine Hua and I are sisters-in-law, what does Concubine Xian have to do with them?" Which concubine do you want to reward, but how can you use the name of Concubine Hua to reward them, so that Concubine Hua under Jiuquan can be embarrassed? Please think twice. ”

"Concubine Ning disagrees?" The emperor raised his eyes to see that there was no trace of warmth in Concubine Ning's eyes: "Concubine Hua will not disagree under Jiuquan, you are all sisters when you enter the palace, are you still separated from each other as before?" Concubine Hua is usually close to Concubine Xian, everyone in the palace knows about this, why can't I make them concubines? ”

Chapter 780: Failure and Failure

After speaking, the emperor looked at the concubines in the palace: "Is what I said wrong?" Everyone entering the palace is a family, how can it be worse than the sisterhood of the in-laws? Of course, there are also intimacy between sisters when they move around, but it has nothing to do with their original identity, right? There are many mistakes, and because of this, I only rewarded the two concubines who had a deep friendship with Concubine Hua, and did not reward others. ”

The imperial concubine owes herself: "That is the emperor's family matter, and the palace has no objection." "No one knows that the emperor wants to reward the two concubines, so at this time, even Concubine Li can only be silent - if she says something that makes the emperor unhappy, more than ten years of love may really be ruined at this time, and her foothold in the palace is not only to make the queen mother happy, but of course she can't anger the emperor.

Today's emperor speaks and does things so directly, even if the empress dowager is unhappy after listening to the emperor's words, she does not speak rashly. Of course, the Empress Dowager doesn't mind the infighting between the Hu family and the Zhao family, if the two of them have not fought fiercely in the past few years, where would there still be a situation where the Shangguan family is dominant? It is also because of this that she did not stop the emperor, because after the two concubines became concubines, they could really compete with the concubines.

Concubine Ning couldn't accept it, because the emperor was undoubtedly slapping her in the face by doing this, especially when Hongluan and Fuwang and his wife also accused her of possibly killing Concubine Hua, the emperor's refusal to reward her was simply equivalent to the emperor believing that she had killed someone: this is more important than whether Hongluan killed someone, even if Hongluan was killed in the end, as long as the emperor had such suspicions about her, it meant that she would never have a future in the palace. Besides, how will the people in the palace view her from now on?

Although it is said that after entering the palace, everyone is sisters and a family, but after the death of a concubine in the past dynasties, the emperor must have rewarded people for it, such as his sisters and nephews, or the people who served around him, rather than other irrelevant concubines.

"Your Majesty, the concubine begged the emperor to take back his fate, and now that the person who poisoned Concubine Hua has not been found, it is really painful to reward the concubine and the dead Concubine Hua; The concubine asked the emperor to punish her, but the concubine insisted on asking the emperor to take back the reward. With tears streaming down her face, she fell to her knees and prostrated herself.

"Who said I didn't know who killed Concubine Hua?" The emperor straightened his face: "Imperial Doctor Li, you first tell me what is the difference between the poison in the bottle and the poison in Concubine Hua, and the others will go to me to check if there are no tea cups and other substances in the tea room, but they are poisonous, if there is no poison, ...... " He said here and looked at Concubine Ning and instructed Chief Liu: "You tell the imperial doctors what they should do to detect the poison." In order not to let people say that I am deliberately partial, let people move all the things in the tea room to the palace. ”

Concubine Ning was still entangled in the canonization of Concubine Xian and Concubine Hui, and she didn't care about the emperor's orders at all, but she made Concubine Xian and Concubine Xian unhappy, and Concubine Ning was even more hateful.

Hongluan saw that Concubine Ning was so unrelenting, and looked at the busy imperial doctor and others over there, and she was also puzzled, not knowing what the emperor was doing; But the emperor only gave her a reassuring look, signaling that she didn't have to think or do anything, just sit with peace of mind.

The emperor scolded Concubine Ning: "The matter of rewarding the concubine is not right now, you need to cry like this?" If you are really dissatisfied, you must wait for Imperial Doctor Li to finish speaking to me - if you have something to say to me then. After he finished speaking, he looked at Imperial Doctor Li and waited for him to speak.

Imperial Doctor Li saluted helplessly, and when he saw that the Empress Dowager and Concubine Ning's mouths were full of bitterness, their hearts were also flustered; He really didn't know whether the emperor was intentional or unintentional, so many imperial doctors favored him? He has never been an eye-catching person in the imperial hospital, and it is not his turn to diagnose the pulse of the emperor, the empress dowager and others, but the emperor asked him to talk back and forth when he opened his mouth, which really couldn't make him not panic.

"If you go back to the emperor, the poison in the bottle and the poison in Concubine Hua should be said to be a kind of poison, the difference is that the poison in Concubine Hua should be taken twice, which should start from the special features of the poison. The poison is so poisonous that it kills people almost immediately after ingestion, but it is made up of a completely non-toxic, non-toxic combination of another drug. ”

Imperial Doctor Li's voice trembled slightly: "The completely non-toxic medicine is made from the rhizomes of several herbs, which can cure headaches, but what is not toxic is that it is made up of the juice of several medicines combined, and finally the powder and the liquid are combined together and dried to become the medicine in the bottle." And Concubine Hua should have eaten one of them first, and then took the other one before she died of poison. ”

The emperor touched his chin: "Do you mean that if the two medicines are placed in different places, such as one in the food and the other in the tea, it is not easy to detect the poison when tested separately?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.

"Of course, the non-toxic ones can't be detected, even if the toxicity is not obvious, they are still toxic." Imperial Doctor Li told the truth, but the sweat on his forehead kept rolling down, as if it was too hot.

The emperor nodded: "I see." He suddenly stared at the imperial doctor: "Are you very hot?" ”

Imperial Doctor Li's body was shocked: "The minister, the minister is fine." ”

The emperor looked at Imperial Doctor Li and said slowly: "You're not hot, you're afraid?" I don't know if you're afraid, but even though I asked you to test for poison, I won't anger you because of this. In my opinion, you are the only one who is scared like this, and the other imperial doctors seem to be just a little miserable. ”

Imperial Doctor Li almost fainted when he heard this: "The minister is nervous, and the minister's first time is right." ”

The emperor looked at Concubine Ning and said softly, "Really?" After a while, your wife and son will enter the palace, do you think they will be as nervous as you? In case the monarch loses his honor, Imperial Doctor Li, do you want to cure them? ”

Imperial Doctor Li was stunned for a moment, then kowtowed and made a "bang" sound: "Your Majesty, the minister is guilty, the minister is guilty, but what the minister did has nothing to do with his wife and the minister's son, please spare them." He fell on the ground and wept silently.

The emperor looked at Concubine Ning's eyes without blinking: "Imperial Doctor Li, I know that you will do such a thing, so you had better make it clear to me in 1510, understand?" Some people threatened you with your wife and your children, and now I have rescued them. ”

Imperial Doctor Li cried out: "The minister is guilty of capital crimes." Then he told how he was bought by the palace maid next to Ning Concubine and threatened it, he didn't know the source of the poison, and the palace maid next to Ning Concubine only asked him to test the poison when the time came, and insisted that Concubine Hua died of the poison found in the Qinglu Palace. When it came to pass, the palace maid said that she would release his wife and son.

Concubine Ning shouted unjustly before she finished listening: "Imperial Doctor Li, this palace and you have no grievances in the past, how can you frame this palace like this?" said, in the end, who in the palace bribed you and set up such a poisonous situation with you to murder this palace. Her mind was already a little flustered, because the emperor seemed to know a lot.

Imperial Doctor Li kept kowtowing: "The minister deserves to die, the minister is guilty of death." "I don't dare to confront Concubine Ning, he is a small imperial doctor, and the Shangguan family can kidnap his wife and children twice, and it is not difficult to even kill him.

The emperor looked at Concubine Ning: "Who are you looking for to buy him?" I also found out, so I'll have someone bring it up for you to see. As soon as he raised his hand, a eunuch dragged a palace maid covered in blood to come in, who was the palace maid beside Concubine Ning and one of the Shangguan family she brought into the palace.

"It's this person who bribed Imperial Doctor Li, I don't know if you know Concubine Ning?" The emperor looked at Concubine Ning without blinking, and suddenly stood up and shouted angrily: "Do you still want to deny it at this time?" That poison was already known to appear in the Qinglu Palace when Concubine Hua was not dead, Concubine Ning, shouldn't you make it clear to me? ”

Concubine Ning was taken aback and immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "The emperor spares his life, the emperor spares his life." When she saw the palace person, she was so frightened that the six gods had no master, and then the emperor drank it and immediately fell to the ground, knowing that she couldn't hide it anymore: "The queen mother save me, the queen mother ......" She doesn't want to die, she still wants to live to be the queen mother of the world.

The emperor pointed at Ning Concubine: "You still haven't recruited me from the truth"

Concubine Ning was so frightened that she shrank back: "Your Majesty, concubine, concubine ......" She looked at the emperor extremely pitiful, and she didn't expect her elaborate game, and she still couldn't get rid of Hongluan after killing her sister-in-law, but she couldn't turn over again.

"Yuan Hua, the emperor just asked you and didn't blame you, and what your palace people did was not what you did, you don't have to be scared like this? The emperor is angry because he feels sorry for Concubine Hua, aren't you also sorry for your sister being poisoned? If you have something to say, say it to the emperor, and the emperor can understand. The Empress Dowager opened her mouth and interrupted Concubine Ning's words: "This palace person is unconscious, after you wake people up, you should also ask clearly and understand, wouldn't it be a disaster if you can't manage the people around you?" ”

When Concubine Ning heard this, she looked at the palace person who dragged her up, and at this time she realized that she was really motionless, and she was greatly relieved: "Your Majesty, the concubine really doesn't know, the concubine should ask this slave well." Having said that, she was worried, and looked at the Empress Dowager for help—if the palace people woke up, wouldn't she die without a place to bury.

The Empress Dowager coughed lightly: "Emperor, what's going on, the mourning family is completely confused." How could Concubine Ning's palace people go to buy the imperial doctor? is really lawless, the mourning family must ask her in person, and she must ask to find out. ”

The emperor slowly withdrew his arm and looked at the Empress Dowager, his gaze was as sharp as a sword: "Concubine Hua, the Empress Dowager really doesn't miss her three points?" She is very filial to the Empress Dowager on weekdays, and she has done a lot of filial piety in front of you, and I still remember Concubine Hua very well when I think about it now. He wanted to scare Concubine Ning's truth, but he failed because the Empress Dowager saw through it.

But how did Concubine Hua die, he didn't believe that the Empress Dowager really didn't know, it didn't look like the Empress Dowager had done it, but afterwards she would definitely be able to guess who killed Concubine Hua. Could it really be for the sake of the Shangguan family and the dignity and honor of her empress dowager, do you want to let Concubine Hua die blindly?
