Chapter 23 Love concubines, love soup, affection, soul broken, and the emperor hate indefinitely

"Quick! Prepare me with pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and I will write an edict for my own sin... ”

"Hurry up and change my court clothes, I will enter the palace immediately to see my father..."

In the prince's mansion, as the prince suddenly returned to the mansion and broke in, it was a mess of chickens and dogs!

"Husband, the concubine has good news for you; Concubine, pregnant with your flesh and blood! ”

The crown princess Li was shyly whispering to Zhao Yuanxi while dressing up the court clothes for Zhao Yuanxi.

Looking at the beautiful and docile and virtuous Li in front of him, Zhao Yuanxi couldn't help but feel guilty and ashamed of his absurdity a few days ago. When I heard that my wife was pregnant, I couldn't help but be moved:

"Your beloved wife has worked hard, so you can rest in peace and raise our children well. When I inherit the throne, our son and this king will definitely make him the crown prince! ”

"Hehe~!"

poof, but it amused the Li family, and she said coquettishly:

"Nonsense, husband, how do you know that the concubine is pregnant with a man and a girl? What if the concubine is pregnant with a daughter?

Well, by the way, Sister Liangdi, she seems to be happy too...! ”

"Love your wife, being a husband is serious, even if you are pregnant with a daughter, when I inherit the throne as a husband, I will definitely crown you as the queen, because in the eyes of my husband, only you are the only woman in the world who has the bearing and demeanor of a mother!"

Zhao Yuanxi's words deeply touched the heart of his wife Li, her beautiful eyes were filled with tears, she gently leaned on Zhao Yuanxi's arms, and said gently:

"Husband, there is no need to be so embarrassed and force yourself, as a wife, I just hope that you are safe and sound. The concubine only wants to live for a lifetime, and it is good to get along with your husband day and night and grow old together! Others, concubines, nothing else...! ”

"Oh, what a touching picture of lingering love and husband singing with wife! When I don't exist! No matter how sticky you two are, the Bazhen Yiqi soup that I spent half a day boiling will be cool...! ”

Zhang, who had been quietly waiting outside for a long time and listened to the conversation between the two word for word, finally couldn't help it.

Her mean and jealous words soon made the docile Li embarrassed, and she hurriedly broke free from Zhao Yuanxi's arms: she lowered her head and blushed and said shyly: "Husband, you can talk to your sister, and the concubine will go to study ink for you~."

After that, she left quickly, went to the study first, and prepared a book for Zhao Yuanxi!

After running around overnight, Zhao Yuanxi had already had an empty stomach and was hungry and cold; After drinking the sweet and steaming soup porridge handed by Zhang's, it was indeed a lot more comfortable, and most of the strength in his body was restored.

"Well, Concubine Ai, your cooking skills have grown again, this soup is really delicious, the first delicacy in the world! Well, there's a bowl here... ”

"Ah, husband, you can't drink it anymore, that bowl is different, it's for my sister..."

Zhao Yuanxi saw that there was still a bowl of hot soup on the sandalwood bauhinia wood plate brought by Zhang, so he unceremoniously picked it up, and drank it in one gulp, not caring about Zhang's exclamation. After drinking the hot soup in the white fat jade bowl, he put down the jade bowl satisfied, turned around and rushed to the study!

"Hey~!"

Seeing that Zhao Yuanxi was in a hurry to pick up the second bowl of soup, he also took a bite into his stomach. The Zhang family thought that it was to stop him, because this bowl of soup was originally prepared for the Li family in the main house.

Last night, I sent the soup in the middle of the night, and I told her again and again:

"This soup is supplemented by dozens of precious medicinal materials, with the top of the Tianshan Mountains, more than 100 years of snow lotus seeds as the main ingredient of the medicinal soup for qi and essence, only suitable for people with weak qi and blood and loss of essence;

Sister, you are in good health, and in the past, I was often conditioned and nourished by my Yin Bazhen Soup, and my body has long been excellent without loss. Therefore, there is no need for this soup to be nourishing and nourishing.

The prince's essence is deficient and yang, and it is still suitable for nourishing yin and eight treasures soup to nourish and regulate, while Li's qi and blood are declining, but this soup is just right for her to take;

According to the report of the messenger who returned to Beijing from Luoyang today, the prince is returning to the imperial capital with the inspection army day and night. At a normal pace, the prince will return to Kyoto early tomorrow morning. At that time, it was the time when the prince was hungry and cold, and it was also the time to show the warmth and cooking skills of his wife and concubine.

If you want to capture a man's heart, you must first grab his stomach. In this way, he will always have your place in his heart! If you want to defeat a woman's exclusive love for men, you must make her feel your confidence, ability and strength; Only in this way will she not underestimate you and dare not leave some space to share men's love with you! ”

When the soup man left, he specially told her again:

"That's a medicinal soup, you can only take one bowl at a time, and you can't eat too much!"

At that time, I deliberately asked the soup giver, what would happen if I took more?

I remember that the soup giver was obviously sluggish for a moment, and then attached to her ear and whispered Youlan, smiled and told her:

"Do you want to know? Do you want to try it? But sister, I don't tell you, giggles... ”

After the soup giver finished playfully, he left a deep smile and walked away.

At that time, I somehow suddenly became sleepy, and then I went to rest and stopped paying attention to this problem.

Seeing that my husband drank two bowls of medicinal soup in a row, I remembered the words of the person who sent the soup last night.

But she didn't pay much attention to it.

On the contrary, it was the conversation between the two of them, which made her suddenly jealous and angry - Zhao Yuanxi's insistence on canonizing the Li family as the queen of the main palace on the day in the future made her mother's dream of the world instantly shattered and extremely annoyed, almost to the point of despair.

Even when Zhao Yuanxi praised her soup as the most delicious in the world, she didn't listen carefully.

When he came back to his senses, Zhao Yuanxi had already gone to the study.

What she didn't know was:

In Zhao Yuanxi's stomach, two different worms the size of rice grains were coming alive from the two porridge soups at this time, biting each other like a feud and fighting in one place, accompanied by a little bit of dark cyan liquid, constantly releasing from their bodies...

In the study, Li had already prepared pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and Zhao Yuanxi rushed into the study with a wave of pen and paper. After a while, he saw Zhao Yuanxi rushing out of the study again, turned over the white horse on his crotch on the spot, and galloped away.

Behind, several family members followed from afar...!

"Husband, slow down. In everything, just do your best, don't deliberately force it...! ”

At the entrance of the mansion, the Li family, who is thin but still wonderful, and the pear blossom with the rain are looking at each other...!

"Drive~!"

Zhao Yuanxi on horseback galloped on horseback, and the pain and discomfort in his stomach became more and more intense.

Shortly after drinking the hot soup, when he was writing the edict in the study, he felt very uncomfortable in his stomach, and his stomach ached intermittently.

But he didn't care too much, thinking that he was in too much of a hurry to drink the porridge.

But at this moment, he was in more and more pain and unbearable. Finally, a salty flow of heat gushed out from the throat:

"Poof~", a large mouthful of red blood spilled out, and then stained the large piece of brand-new prince's court clothes on his chest!

"I, I...!" Zhao Yuanxi's eyes began to blur and sway.

Seeing the palace gate, which was close at hand, just a few steps away, Zhao Yuanxi tried to speak, but finally blocked his throat because of the continuous spit of blood, so that he could not shout several times.

The pain in his abdomen was so severe that he could not ride normally on horseback. Lying on his stomach, he stretched out his right hand with difficulty, trying to grasp the gate of the palace that was about to fall into darkness in his eyes, but he was powerless to hang down.

And he was no longer able to drive on the horse, and with a "poof", he fell heavily on his back to the ground!

The white horse, neighing and wailing, as if frightened, spread its hooves, avoided the crowd and galloped away.

In the haze, Zhao Yuanxi's mind flashed his past experience:

A few years after his mother's death, he was fortunate to have an independent mansion due to the grace of his father, until he started a family; had a wife, Li, and through her matchmaking, she remarried the maid Zhang...

After that, it was under the wind and drum by the side of this Zhang family's long pillow that his ambitions were also inflated day by day. Until today, he has sat on the throne of the crown prince as he wished!

His infinitely beautiful life had just begun, but he was unexpectedly subjected to this misfortune.

He knew he was being plotted. He is unwilling, really unwilling! In my mind: the faces of familiar people are flying by one by oneβ€”fathers, emperors, ministers; Zhong Jiading, Wang Zhaojun and other soldiers who died for him; There are a lot of stunning red-clothed women at the foot of Wulong Ridge: Wang Jixun, the black and white sisters, the virtuous wife Li, and the delicate Zhang...;

Thinking of this, the softest place in his heart was touched. He still clearly remembered that just now, his virtuous wife Li was still whispering in his ear, telling him that he had his own blood and bones.

Suddenly, Zhang's originally charming and pretty face suddenly appeared in front of him, but it became so strange and terrifying!

''It's her, it's her!'' I drank her porridge to do so.

Also, the other bowl, originally, was for the Li family to drink. β€œβ€

"Ah, no! Hurry, come on! Save my child, save my wife Wanning, the one who harmed me, Zhang Xiaocui! Come on~Hurry~, save my wife and children~.... ”

The blood in Zhao Yuanxi's body seems to have been exhausted and no longer overflowing; And he, too, exhausted his last strength, and finally spit out his last words that remained in the world and still had the last trace of sanity!

"Ah, look, the man...?"

"Oh my God! Prince, it's His Royal Highness the Prince...! ”

"No, Prince, don't scare the minions, wake up, wake up~...!"

In the early morning of the rainy day, at the gate of the capital and palace of the Great Song Dynasty:

The palace guards, the passing officials, and the slaves of the Prince's Mansion who followed after him..., chaos, shock!

The news soon spread like a whirlwind throughout the entire Imperial Capital City!

When the news came back to the Prince's Mansion, Li vomited blood and fainted on the spot; When the Zhang family was grief-stricken, they were inexplicably restrained and strictly controlled on the spot by the female officials and guards in the inner courtyard of the palace who hurried here!

The prince's dying words were also passed on word by word by the palace guards to Emperor Taizong Zhao Guangyi!

"Ah no, my son~! You're dying so miserably...! ”

Zhao Guangyi hurriedly ran from the inner palace to the gate of the palace with bare feet, disheveled clothes and messy hair;

At that moment, he hugged the body of his second son, Zhao Yuanxi, who had no sound and his body was as soft as bones, and looked up to the sky and roared.

At that moment, Zhao Guangyi's bloodshot eyes burst out with a terrifying luster that would be extinguished!

The king was furious, turned the world upside down, and ambushed millions of corpses!

For the whole morning, Zhao Guangyi held his beloved son, who was gradually getting cold and stiff, motionless, and did not say a word;

All around, all the princes and nobles, civil and military officials, no one dared to come forward to persuade anything, even Gao Qiong, the head of the internal guard, and even the third son Zhao Yuankan, did not dare to come close to persuade him.

Especially Zhao Yuankan, after learning of such bad news for the first time, in addition to grief, he also made corresponding arrangements in a timely and calm manner.

Those harem female officials and guards who went to the prince's mansion were the emergency response made by him after he sent someone to inform his beloved concubine Guo to go to the palace harem in time and find the unanimous consent and authorization of Concubine Poria, Concubine Xiao and the rest of the concubines!

On the body of the crown prince Zhao Yuanxi, the blood-soaked 'Guilty Edict' was inadvertently seen by Zhao Guangyi's dull eyes, and he used his trembling hand to tremble and open the 'Guilty Edict' that had been soaked in blood, and after reading it, he couldn't help but hug Zhao Yuanxi's body and cry bitterly.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor's Day is mourning...;"

Around, more than a dozen of his concubines, dressed in plain clothes, gathered here, all of them were also delicate and weeping silently to persuade him;

"Father, please mourn~...;"

"Your Majesty, please mourn~..."

With the leadership of all the ladies and concubines, "Hula~!" All around, there was a large number of people kneeling.

His sons, princes and ministers, civil and military officials, as well as hundreds, thousands, thousands of palace slaves, guards, and forbidden soldiers, all knelt down at this moment!

Zhao Guangyi slowly relieved himself from his extreme grief, holding the blood-stained 'Guilty Edict' in his hand, and his hoarse and dismal voice finally sounded slowly:

"Proposed edict, posthumously seal Xu'er as Prince Gongxiao! ordered Ouchi, the Imperial Hospital, the Sansi Mansion, and the Kaifeng Mansion to jointly thoroughly investigate and arrest the culprit of poisoning the prince, and all the suspects, etc., to be immediately taken into custody and supervised; Once verified, the three relatives will be destroyed, the nine clans will be punished, and the punishment will not be granted...! ”
