916 The Old Emperor Loses Face (2 more)
Needles can be heard in the main hall.
The emperor's smile faded little by little.
Syllable!
The wine cup in Concubine Rou's hand fell to the ground, and the bones rolled out of the distance, and the wine spilled on the ground.
The people in the hall were awakened by the sound of the wine cup falling to the ground, and they all looked at the second prince in disbelief.
But the second prince didn't seem to hear it, and insisted on asking the emperor to give an answer, "Father, you haven't answered your son's words yet." ”
Concubine Rou was so frightened that her soul was out of her body, how could An'er ask such a thing? Is he dying?
"An'er, you're drunk...... Don't apologize to your father soon! ”
The second prince stiffened his neck, his eyes were clear, and he didn't have the slightest drunkenness, "Erchen is not drunk, Erchen is very sober now, and Erchen wants to know if his father really did that beastly thing and defiled Princess Qin." ”
The emperor picked up the wine cup in his hand and smashed it, and the second prince turned his head to dodge, which made the emperor even more angry, "Come on, take him down!" ”
"Your Majesty!"
Concubine Rou knelt on the ground, "An'er is just drunk, he's talking nonsense, please spare him." ”
"The concubine doesn't have to intercede for me."
The second prince seems to be really open-minded, "Back then, Uncle Qin Wang quelled the palace change by himself, supported his father to sit in that position, and then led troops to the frontier to resist strong enemies, so that his father had no worries, how could such an Uncle Qin Wang enter the palace to assassinate his father?" ”
"Shut up!"
Some palace people have already stepped forward and wanted to cover the mouth of the second prince.
The second prince kicked away one by one and continued, "So, my father really defiled Princess Qin back then, so he provoked Uncle Qin to enter the palace to assassinate you, didn't he?" ”
The emperor was so angry that he was going to be angry, "Take him down!" ”
Sun Qi rushed in with two royal guards, put one foot on the knee of the second prince, kicked the person to the ground, and stepped forward to hold him.
Concubine Rou was about to faint, and kowtowed vigorously, "Your Majesty, An'er must have been framed, he wouldn't say such a thing, someone must have drugged the wine, and asked the emperor to find out." ”
Qin Guogong also came out from behind the table and knelt on the ground, his official robe was soaked, "Your Majesty, the old minister also thinks that the second prince is like being drugged, and he also asks the emperor to take a look." ”
"Grandfather, you don't have to intercede for me, he doesn't deserve to be a ......"
Sun Qi slashed at his neck with a sharp hand knife, and the second prince's voice stopped abruptly.
There was also a deathly silence in the main hall.
Only the emperor's heavy wheezing echoed.
Concubine Rou wanted to pounce but didn't dare, and kowtowed, "Please the emperor to be clear, please be clear." ”
The emperor picked up the fruit plate and smashed it over.
Concubine Rou didn't dare to hide.
The fruit bowl smashed on her head, and blood flowed out and fell to the ground.
Concubine Rou's eyes were dark, but she was still pleading, "Please let the emperor know." ”
"Your Majesty, the old minister also feels strange about this matter."
Dingguo Gong came out and knelt beside Qin Guogong.
With him coming out, the rest of the officials also came out and knelt down.
The emperor's heavy wheezing slowly calmed down, he stared gloomily at the second prince who was knocked unconscious, and gritted his teeth, "Pass the imperial doctor!" ”
It was now the night of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and the imperial doctors were all accompanying their families for the New Year, and there was no guard in the palace, so Sun Qi sent two royal forest soldiers to ride fast horses to pick people up.
The imperial physician stumbled into the main hall.
He listened to what the Imperial Forest Army said on the way, and after coming in, he went directly to the second prince, pinched his wrist, and after finishing the number, he picked up the wine cup that fell next to the second prince and smelled it, and then walked to the table made by the second prince, opened the wine bottle and sniffed it, put it on the table, and knelt down, "Your Majesty, there is indeed a psychedelic medicine in the wine." ”
There was dead silence in the hall again.
"Check it out for me, find out and beat it to death!"
……
Gonggong Huang stood at the door of the main hall, watching the palace people who entered and exited the palace today being brought over one by one.
A little eunuch hurriedly walked over and whispered in his ear, Huang Gonggong's face sank, and he followed the little eunuch to the place where the palace people lived.
A palace maid hangs on the beam of the house, which is the one who changes the wine for the second prince.
"Search!"
Several eunuchs quickly separated, searched the house, and found a purse in the palace maid's cabinet, which contained a thousand taels of silver tickets and a bracelet.
Gonggong Huang felt that the bracelet was familiar, took it and looked at it carefully, his expression changed slightly, he turned around and hurried back to the palace, presented the bracelet to the emperor, and stopped talking.
"Say!"
Gonggong Huang lowered his head and held his breath, "The slave remembers that this is a gift from the emperor to Concubine Rong." ”
There was dead silence in the hall again.
The officials and wives wished that they had not come to the palace banquet tonight.
The emperor laughed angrily, "Okay, very good." ”
Huang Gonggong did not move in response to his scalp.
Across the table, he could feel the emperor's anger.
Concubine Rong was also bold enough to dare to drug the second prince and say those words through his mouth. Did she think she didn't die fast enough or did she think the prince didn't die fast enough?
An Guohou and his wife's clothes were soaked.
The eldest prince was demoted to the rank of commoner, they knew that the general trend had gone, and they had tried to keep a low profile these days, except for necessary purchases, the subordinates in the palace were not allowed to go out at will.
But they never thought that their daughter would do such a foolish thing, not only pushing herself, but also the Marquis of Anguo Mansion into the abyss.
"Bring Concubine Rong here!"
……
After the eldest prince was demoted to a commoner, Concubine Rong was also confined to her palace and could not hear any news from the outside.
However, she knew that today was a palace banquet, and she would accompany the emperor in previous years, although she was not the most favored one, but she was also one of the four concubines.
Concubine Rong smiled bitterly.
She was by his side when she was the emperor or the crown prince, and at that time, except for the crown princess, she was the only one who was by the emperor's side.
After the crown princess gave birth to a child, her body has been very prostration, and it was her husband who gave birth to the emperor's first child, and the emperor was ecstatic at that time, holding the child and loving it, he personally named him.
Later, the emperor ascended the throne, and the queen died within two years, and the emperor accepted many people into the palace, but it was still different for her, and she came to her palace the most, until the concubine entered the palace, she gradually fell out of favor.
But she is not afraid, she has the eldest son of the emperor, and the emperor will give the crown prince to her son in the future.
But she waited for more than ten years, Yuan'er grew up and opened another mansion, went to the princess, and had her own children, she didn't wait for the emperor to crown Yuan'er as the crown prince.
And the second prince and the third prince gradually grew up, so they were in a hurry, so they planned step by step, but God really didn't care about their mother and son.
Bang!
The palace door was kicked open, and Huang Gonggong led people to break in and walked into the house without any scruples.
Concubine Rong's heart tightened.
She has been in the palace for more than ten years, so she naturally knows what it means for Gonggong Huang to break in like this.
"Niangniang, please take a trip."
"What?"
"I'll know when I go."
Concubine Rong got up slowly, "Change my clothes." ”
