Chapter 163: Imperial Majesty

Chu Yanzhi's expression froze, and his ink-colored eyes stared at Du Er, as if he wanted to see something from his face.

Du Er lowered his eyes, raised his hand and took out the half of the pill from his sleeve, "Your Majesty, this is the half of the pill that Concubine Xiang took just now." After that, he indifferently handed over the half of the pill to Zhang Shichang.

Zhang Shichang took the pill and raised his eyes to look at the emperor.

The Emperor frowned and waved his hand at him.

Zhang Shichang was common, and hurriedly walked in front of several imperial doctors, and handed the half of the pill into Wu Qi's hands, "All the imperial doctors, please take a look." ”

Several imperial doctors nodded one after another.

Wu Qi looked at the pill in his hand repeatedly for a long time, and finally he raised his eyes and secretly glanced at Chu Yan, and then handed the half pill to the imperial doctor beside him.

Chu Yanzhi looked at Wu Qi's expression, and his originally stretched brows tightened.

Could it be that this pill is really as Du Er said, without mercury? But how is that possible?

All the imperial doctors cautiously looked at the half of the pill carefully, and finally, the half of the pill was handed back to Zhang Shichang's hands.

"Imperial Physician Wu, how is it?" Zhang Shichang looked at Wu Qidao with a smile.

Wu Qi pursed the corners of his lips, and thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind for a while.

One is King Shen, whom the emperor is now supporting, and the other is a monk trusted by the emperor, no matter which one of them can be offended by his small imperial hospital.

From the moment King Shen sent someone to explain to him and let him tell the truth in front of the holy driver, he vaguely knew that there was something strange about the poison in the womb of the little prince, and even vaguely guessed that King Shen wanted to take the opportunity to attack this master who was valued by the emperor, but he didn't expect that the half of the pill in the hands of Master Du Er really didn't have a bit of mercury. Now, how is he going to answer?

"Imperial Physician Wu." Zhang Shichang shouted again, obviously, at this time, the smile on his face decreased a little.

"Yes, yes......" Wu Qi came back to his senses and hurriedly lowered his head.

He is not the only imperial doctor in front of the emperor, all the imperial doctors have been examined, and he alone can't hide it even if he wants to.

Thinking of this, Wu Qi gritted his teeth and made up his mind, "If you go back to the emperor, this elixir is indeed as the master said, and no mercury ...... found."

The cold eyes of the emperor on the throne flashed with a hint of deep meaning, he closed his eyes, and his gaze slowly moved to Chu Yanzhi next to him.

"This half is not, but the other half that was eaten by Concubine Xiang is not necessarily absent. Otherwise, how could the little prince in Concubine Xiang's belly have poison in the womb. Chu Yanzhi raised his head in the face of the emperor's scrutinizing gaze.

Du Er was introduced into the palace by Chu Xizhi, even if he did not have any abnormal behavior after entering the palace, and he had never even had contact with the people of King Yan's faction, but with the fact that he had gained the trust of the emperor in such a short period of time, and even accumulated countless prestige in the court, he could no longer keep him by his side.

The emperor looked at Chu Yanzhi coldly.

He already confirmed that the reason why the little prince was poisoned by mercury was because he had taken the pill of Erdan, and even that the poison was not an accident, but had been deliberate for a long time.

He's going to get rid of Doom.

In an instant, the emperor understood what Chu Yanzhi meant.

"Amitabha." Du Er raised his hand and made a Buddha salute, his black and clear eyes were like a pool of clear and calm pool water, since there was no anger or resentment, "Since the prince must sit on the charge of the little monk, the little monk will listen to it." With that, he bent down and sat up on the ground, his eyes closed, and his mouth muttered Buddhist scriptures.

The emperor didn't look at Du Doom, but quietly looked at this son who looked like his mother's concubine, his eyes were stubbornly staring at himself, and there was no doubt in his dark eyes that he had no retreat.

"Father, since Master Du has confessed, please ask my father to issue an order to seek justice for Concubine Xiang and the little prince." Chu Yanzhi stared at the emperor's eyes and said word by word.

The Emperor's hand holding the dragon chair suddenly tightened.

At this moment, he suddenly realized that he was really old......

One by one, his sons have grown full wings, and they are no longer under his control, and even faintly want to control him in turn?

Especially the son in front of him, who is bent on taking the position of prince.

"Father's ......"

At this moment, a clear voice suddenly sounded in the hall.

Everyone was shocked, and when they looked back, they saw Xiao Xiwei wearing a high-waisted skirt with light blue embroidered roses walking into the hall, because of pregnancy, her face was a little rounded, but even so she couldn't hide the delicacy and beauty of her facial features. There was also a person beside him, it was Chu Muzhi, the king of Qin.

"Erchen has seen his father." The two saluted in unison.

"Why are you here?" The emperor said coldly with his eyes.

And the moment Chu Yanzhi saw Xiao Xiwei walk in, his cold pupils instantly constricted, and the fingers held between his sleeves were tightly clenched into fists.

His intuition told him that this time he gave Concubine Xiang half a pill, and even the reason why there was no mercury in this pill was all her idea.

"Erchen just received a letter sent by the prince from Suyang a month ago." Xiao Xiwei took out the letter and handed it to Zhang Shichang as he spoke, and said to the emperor with tears in his eyes, "Father, the prince said in the letter that Suyang is afraid of changes, but he will deal with it carefully to reassure the concubines." The guards who could deliver the letter were chased and killed all the way, and when the letter reached the son, the prince was ...... He has lost the news. Speaking of this, Xiao Xi knelt down with difficulty holding his stomach, "Father, the prince definitely didn't fall into the water, someone must be trying to harm him, father, send someone to save him." I beg you, son......"

"What nonsense!" The emperor coldly cut off Xiao Xiwei's words.

Xiao Xi's neck shrank slightly, raised his hand to cover his mouth and sobbed quietly.

"Princess Yan, indeed, this letter was sent from Suyang?" Chu Yanzhi looked at Xiao Xiwei coldly, and the corners of his lips hooked up a meaningful smile.

She clearly wanted to muddy the pool with this letter.

"What do you mean by this? This handwriting is the handwriting of the Seven Emperor Brothers, and if the Four Emperor Brothers don't believe it, they can see it for themselves. Chu Muzhi said to Chu Yanzhi with a calm face, and after speaking, he turned around and saluted the emperor, and said loudly, "Father, according to the sons, the Seventh Emperor Brother's trip to Suyang must have suffered from some people's calculations, and I also asked the Father Emperor to personally lead people to Suyang to find the Seventh Emperor Brother." ”

The emperor stared at Chu Muzhi with cold eyes and was silent for a long time.

Zhang Shichang on the side of the 'cough' covered his mouth and coughed lightly, and at the end, he saluted Chu Muzhi, "His Royal Highness King Qin, Princess Yan." The emperor has his own decision on the matter of King Yan, and now he ...... Your Majesty, he has other things. ”

After listening to Zhang Shichang's words, Chu Muzhi seemed to have just discovered Du Doom who had been meditating on the ground with his eyes closed, "It turns out that the master is also there." ”

As if he had not heard of it, the whole person sat in the temple as if he had settled down.

"Father-in-law Zhang, this is ......" Chu Muzhi frowned, looked at Zhang Shichang with some puzzlement and whispered.

Zhang Shichang covered his mouth and coughed lightly a few times, but did not answer Chu Muzhi's words.

"Master Doom intends to murder Concubine Xiang and the little prince, and now the drama is conclusive, and he is waiting for his father to fall." Chu Yanzhi said coldly.

"Did I hear me right? Brother Huang, do you say it again? Chu Muzhi plucked out his ears and looked at Chu Muzhi in disbelief.

Chu Yanzhi smiled coldly, but he didn't look at Chu Muzhi, he turned his eyes to the emperor on the throne, raised his hand, and said loudly, "Father, please give me a decree." ”

"Brother Huang, Master Du is kind and generous, and he has a good reputation in the palace and even in the capital, you say that he murdered Concubine Xiang and the little prince? So, the reason? What reason did he have to do that? Chu Muzhi retorted in a deep voice.

"Eighth Emperor Brother is so excited? What is your relationship with Master Doom? The master of Doom has confessed, what are you excited about! Chu Yanzhi sneered.

"I should ask the Fourth Emperor Brother, what kind of grudge do you have with the master, and you have to detain him for such a big crime." Chu Muzhi replied.

"Alright! Stop arguing! The Emperor finally couldn't help but interrupt the two of them angrily.

Chu Muzhi hurriedly turned around and saluted the emperor, "Father, Master Du is the only closed disciple of the Tribulation Divine Monk, and I believe that no one can know his character better, and this matter must be thoroughly investigated by the Father Emperor." ”

"Father." Chu Yan took a step forward, his eyes shining with a hint of urgency.

"Lord, my father's body has always been conditioned by Master Du'er, and everyone inside and outside the palace knows that the reason why my father can be so healthy is the master's work, if you really want to ask the master for sin, dare to ask how the world thinks of my father?" Xiao Xiwei looked at Chu Yanzhi and said slowly.

"So, because Princess Yan is going to protect him?" Chu Yanzhi didn't want to think about it, so he pushed back to Xiao Xiwei and said.

"Lord, the concubine has the courage to ask, if Master Du'er was not recommended by King Yan, would the prince be pressing step by step today?" Xiao Xiwei looked at Chu Yanzhi and said slowly.

Her voice was soft, but it was loud enough for everyone in the temple to hear.

Chu Yanzhi looked at him and was about to speak, but Xiao Xi's voice rang out again.

"Father, the emperor, and the sons believe that the palace and the struggle should not involve outsiders. Please also ask my father to take care of you carefully over the years, and allow him to return to the mountains and forests. Xiao Xi turned slightly to the emperor on the throne and said word by word.

The emperor silently looked into Xiao Xiwei's eyes.

This Ming's eyes are clear and clear, with a faint hint of expectation and begging, such eyes are like pearls......

At that moment, the emperor inexplicably flashed a trace of panic.

He looked at Xiao Xiwei, and then looked at his son who was looking at him persistently and eagerly.

Finally, he slowly closed his eyes and sighed very softly in his heart.

"Let's just let him out of the palace."

"Father." Chu Yanzhi eagerly stepped forward, his ink-colored eyes full of incomprehension and resentment.

The emperor on the throne, although his temples have been dyed with a lot of frost, and the corners of his eyes have been carved into deep lines by the years, but at this time, his dark eyes are like a hard rock, and no one is shaken at all.

"I've decided." He looked at Chu Yanzhi, his voice as cold as if he had been soaked in ice.

This is the majesty of an emperor, the majesty of no one to resist.

Chu Yanzhi looked at his father.

He knew that at this point, he was powerless to turn around.
