Chapter 600: The Parting Legacy, Chinese New Year's Eve

After hearing the bad news on this day, Huang thought that King Qing had already done it, but when he rushed to King Qing's mansion, he heard that this person was also poisoned and life and death, and he was greatly confused for a while, and now her only reliance is Huang Tao, and Huang Tao's only hope to turn over is pinned on King Qing, if King Qing dies like this, the future of Huang Tao's brothers and sisters can be imagined.

Although Huang Tao had the merit of saving the prince in the case of Maoyingyuan, the Son of Heaven did not praise him much, and it was also because of the series of events that occurred one after another, so that the Son of Heaven did not care about rewarding the merits, and when the prince finally did not escape the poisoning, Huang Tao did not expect to be rewarded.

It can only be after King Qing inherits the unification that he has the opportunity to rise to the top.

Therefore, because of Aunt Xue's sullen breath and resentment towards Wei Guogong, the Huang family was stimulated by the uncertain life and death of King Qing, who had high hopes, and became more and more inflated.

She thought that Yichen was originally rigid and honest, and she was grief-stricken with the sudden death of King Fu, and she would not hear her apparent persuasion was actually a destructive intention.

But things in the world are often so unexpected, Yichen suffered a heavy blow, but he was very sober, not only insight into malice, but even associated with Huang's "motherly advice" in the past.

"Since the fourth brother and sister spread my jealous and unvirtuous words with malice, and my mother and concubine have repeatedly made things difficult, to my careless miscarriage, Mrs. She has repeatedly persuaded her, saying that for women, the husband's favor is only for a while, and she can't count on a lifetime, to stand firm, you have to rely on a good reputation, the prince is no longer important, and he is also the prince, although he has words first, I shouldn't really follow him, in case the prince regrets it in the future, my reputation has been ruined, and I am afraid that it will be more difficult to criticize at that time."

When he said this, Yi Chen's eyes were cold: "I also listened to it at first, and even disregarded the wishes of the prince, and wanted to open Zishu's face first...... The maid was an honest man, and she was so frightened that she didn't dare to disobey me, so she only cried in front of Xuanye, and later Xuanye dissuaded me, saying that if I was really like this, it would chill the prince's heart...... Fifth sister, I'm so ridiculous, even a maid understands better than me, as you said, which woman is willing to share her husband's affection with others, and those women who tolerate concubines have their own last resort, but I actually listened to Madame's words at the time, thinking that one day, when the years are gone, they will decline Aichi. ”

"I can't even believe that the prince treats him sincerely, but cares about those false names, I really failed him."

Yichen shook his head lightly, as if he sneered: "Today's lady's advice, every sentence is to say that I will be miserable and helpless in the future, and there will be no daylight, she is such a virtuous person who is good at dancing with long sleeves and eight faces, don't you know that these words are heart-wrenching?" Now that I think about it, don't talk about it, don't you know how our third uncle treats the third aunt? But she doesn't trust the prince to treat me like this, why does she think so? Why did she never dare to persuade you to take the initiative to take a concubine, it was just because she saw me stupid and had no opinions. ”

"Fifth sister, I really hope that today is a nightmare, I would rather one day even if it is true as Madame said, the prince will swear to be separated from me, maybe I will be heartbroken at that time, but there will always be the process of getting old and getting tired of it, which can give me a long time to accompany him...... It's not so short, fate has given me the time to know him for just a few years...... He may be betrayed, but I also hope that he will live safely, and that he can see and hear in my sight and ears. ”

If time is the beginning, no longer confined to etiquette, will not care about false fame, only love as you like, but time will never look back, Yichen understands, this is not a nightmare, her husband is alone in the cold and deep silence, never to return, will no longer look at her shallow smile warmly, will no longer sleep with her breath and hug her.

He lay there, unable to stretch his eyebrows no matter how hard he tried.

Even if she closed her eyes, the tears still couldn't be stopped, and she even missed his last confession, only the words of last night accompanied her for the rest of her life.

Yichen smiled lightly, wiped away Yijing's tears with hazy teary eyes, and then took a deep breath: "Fifth sister, don't worry, I won't continue to be cowardly, even if it is to live up to the prince, I will live a good life in the future...... The funeral of the prince must be presided over by me, and there are ...... Who is the real culprit who poisoned the prince, I will never let it go! ”

When he said this, Yi Chen still maintained a dignified posture, and did not grit his teeth and grit his resentment, but just held Yi Jing's hand tightly: "I know that I am not smart enough, and it is not easy to find out the truth for the blood hatred of the prince, so fifth sister, you have to help me...... King Kang is in charge of this case, I believe that the fifth brother-in-law will also be involved, but there are clues, as long as the fifth sister hears about it, don't hide it from me, don't hide it from me because I'm worried, I promise the fifth sister, no matter what the truth is, I won't act rashly, because I also want to live safely and protect Brother Shun and the fetus in my womb. ”

Yijing agreed to Yichen's request very seriously.

So of course she didn't let Yu Feng go.

In fact, in the evening of this day, Yu Feng rushed to King Fu's mansion and brought the news that King Kang had found out that the poison had fallen on the tea that the two princes had drunk this morning.

"It's poison, and the relevant servants of the Qingwang Mansion have been detained, but under torture, no one confesses." Yu Feng frowned slightly: "After searching, it turned out that the tea leaves with poison were found in the tea tube in King Qing's study, that is to say, the scope of the murderer is not limited to those who make tea or handle water sources." ”

Anyone who has the opportunity to enter the study may be poisoned while others are unprepared, and it is even related to the shops that buy and provide tea in the palace, which involves a wide range of things.

"How is King Qing now?" Yijing asked again.

Yu Feng's eyebrows frowned even tighter: "I saved my life for the time being, but I am not sober, according to Mr. Qinggu, it is not certain whether it can get better, we need to observe for some time." ”

In other words, King Qing is indeed nine deaths this time, and there are more than ten imperial doctors present, so of course it is impossible to fake the diagnosis.

"King Qing is unconscious, no one knows why his brother-in-law is looking for him today, and what was said between the two." Yu Feng was at a loss, in fact, the person he suspected the most was King Qing, but King Qing was also highly poisonous, which was really difficult to understand.

And it was in the evening of the same day that there was progress in the poisoning case of the two princes, of course, after the long history of the Fu Wangfu Mansion and a group of subordinate officials, they unanimously decided to confess the poisoning case of Ai to King Kang, and the suspect had a clear point, that is, the five princes.

The pickles that were added to Xiao's pickles and wanted to be presented to Yichen happened to be poisonous.

The matter involved the prince, of course, King Kang had to be cautious, and personally interrogated Ai Shi to confirm his confession.

Yichen, who learned about this from Yijing's mouth, was dumbfounded, she didn't know that she was almost murdered until now, and Xuanye didn't hide it anymore, and explained how King Fu interrogated her a few days ago, and how she interrogated Xiao Shi one by one.

Yu Feng was very puzzled, and analyzed: "According to Xuanye, my brother-in-law seems to have suddenly known about this, and locked Ai Shi as the real murderer early in the morning, why did he know?" What is even more incomprehensible is that when he found out about this, why he did not immediately report it to the Zongren Mansion, but instead met King Qing the next day. ”

Yijing also believes that the conversation between King Fu and King Qing is the key.

But these suspicions can't even be explained by the subordinate officials of King Fu's Mansion, and they don't know the truth - it was King Qing who leaked the matter of the five princes' intention to harm Princess Fu to King Fu.

The truth is not known, the poisoning of the two princes has not been publicized for the time being, and the people who know about it are limited to some officials, of course, this matter cannot be concealed, and it has been quietly spread among the noble courtiers in two days.

Although King Kang did not dare to make a judgment, he did not dare to be careless, and when he interrogated Ai, he immediately brought the matter to the forefront.

Concubine De was immediately confined to the deep palace, and the Five Princes' Mansion was also secretly controlled by the palace guards.

King Kang was given a holy order to detain the five princes and their staff, so that the Ai clan could identify the people who had "brainstormed" one by one.

So a staff member named Zhou Zhong jumped out, saying that he was the eyeliner arranged by King Fu in the Five Princes' Mansion, and it was he who told King Fu of the conspiracy of the Five Princes in advance, and in order to hold the evidence of the Five Princes' crimes, King Fu decided to hold back for the time being and invite the king into the urn.

And the reason why he didn't tell the truth until this time was because he was not informed by King Fu, let alone that King Fu had suffered an accident.

The servants and staff of the Five Princes' Mansion were all detained and imprisoned and tortured to extract confessions, and the Yang family, Concubine De's mother, was also implicated and imprisoned.

At this time, there was also progress on the side of the Qingwang Mansion, and a domestic servant finally couldn't stand the torture and confessed that he was the eyes and ears arranged by the five princes, but he refused to confess to the poisoning in the tea.

But this man did have the opportunity to go in and out of the study.

And there are also staff members who confess that Concubine De's mother and son have long had the intention of seizing the prince.

The chief historian of the Five Princes' Mansion finally couldn't bear the punishment anymore, and confessed all the dark lines arranged over the years, including the house slave who admitted that he was the eyes and ears but refused to admit his guilt.

According to his claims, the second brother King Fu discussed with him that day was to jointly report to his father that the five princes had a disobedient heart, saying that it was the fifth prince who found out that the real culprit who poisoned the prince was the fifth prince, and the five princes had already premeditated and wanted to plant the crime of poisoning the prince to him, but the second brother did not have time to explain the evidence of the crime, so he poisoned him one after another.

Finally, more and more cronies of the five princes couldn't support it and confessed one after another.

Although none of them really explained the plot of the five princes to poison the two brothers, but there is no doubt that he wanted to benefit the princess's life and blame King Qing for assassinating the prince, and the truth seems to have been revealed.

The Son of Heaven supported his sick body and personally interrogated a witness, and in the end, of course, he did not let go of the five princes.

No one knows the details of the conversation between father and son.

In December of the ninth year of Yuanqing, the prince and the king of Fu were buried successively, and the Son of Heaven unexpectedly made the case of Concubine De's mother and son conspiring to seize the prince and mutilate her siblings to the public.

King Fu's son Shun Ge'er was given the name Kun by the Son of Heaven, and although he was still young, he inherited his father's throne.

Everything seems to be settled.

Only Yu Feng became more and more suspicious, he knew that King Fu didn't even have a staff member, and he didn't have much trust in his subordinates, and Yu Chuwei had already shown indifference, how could he inexplicably install an ear and an eye under the command of the five princes, and still be able to gain his trust.

But King Fu is gone, and the truth is no longer visible.

December passed in a blink of an eye, and the New Year of the 10th year of Yuanqing came as scheduled in this series of storms and waves, just like that life, the entire Jinyang Kyoto calmed down, and there was no grand celebration of the whole world.

The Son of Heaven also became more and more ill because of many blows, and after mid-December, he could no longer go to court early.

The storage position is still vacant, so that hundreds of officials and nobles are discussing.

And on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Xuan Ye finally told Yichen the sentence that King Fu confessed to her on the day he was killed.

"Princess, on that day, Wang Ye instructed that if he encountered an accident, he would wait until the Chinese New Year's Eve of the ninth year of Yuanqing to inform the princess, so that he could inspect the first birthday gift given by Wang Ye that year."
