Chapter 462: Oh, I really can't wait
Xie Xun didn't want to see the dog emperor's coy posture, so he helped Xie Guifei to the side hall. personally fed her to drink the decoction of nourishing the spirit, and saw that she was asleep, before returning to the bedroom of the Seven Princes.
He heard Anshun arranging the funeral.
Underage children, even if they are princes, cannot be manipulated in a big way, only a simple coffin, and they cannot even be buried in the imperial mausoleum.
"I don't care, the Seventh Emperor is my favorite child, and he must enter the Imperial Mausoleum!"
Hearing the emperor's words, Xie Xun almost laughed. The most pampered child? When the Dog Emperor said this, wasn't he afraid that there would be gods in his head?
"The funeral was done so quickly, did the murderer catch it?" Xie Xun interrupted the affectionate drama of the Dog Emperor, it was so disgusting that he wanted to vomit when he looked at it.
An Shun bowed forward, "It has been found out that it is the poison of the personal eunuch of the Seventh Prince." The reason is that his parents and relatives have ......"
"How?" Xie Xun asked with some coldness.
An Shun gritted his teeth, "He was once oppressed by the Xie clan, which led to the destruction of his family, and he was sold into the palace as a eunuch at the age of ten......"
According to Anshun, the eunuch has always held a grudge and looked for an opportunity to take revenge, but because Concubine Xie took good care of her, she had no chance. Last night, the eunuch in charge of serving the Seven Princes had diarrhea in the middle of the night, and he couldn't be on duty, and he was the only one in the dormitory, so he took the opportunity to poison the Seven Princes, and when the poison was on, he pressed the Seven Princes with a pillow to prevent the Seven Princes from calling for help, until the person lost his breath, and then fled in a hurry. The Seven Princes may have been stunned, but in the early morning, with the joint efforts of the Imperial Doctor, the Seven Princes who had lost their breath had a glimmer of life. However, the poison has been in the viscera for too long, and it is unable to return to heaven after all.
"The poisoned eunuch has been caught, and the emperor ordered Ling Chi to be executed. By now, the execution should have been completed. Anshun concluded his arguments.
Everything sounds reasonable. The Xie family is huge, with a large number of personnel, and great power, and it is not uncommon for there to be occasional bullying of the people. It is human nature for people to be oppressed and take revenge. But Xie Xun just felt that it was full of loopholes.
Not to mention anything else, he just settled Concubine Xie when he slept, and the Dog Emperor killed the murderer. No matter how you look at it, there is a suspicion that the dog emperor destroyed the evidence in order to cover up the truth.
Xie Xun didn't argue, if this poisoning was really planned by the Dog Emperor, how could he easily find evidence?
Instead of pointing out the key and startling the snake, it is better to investigate secretly.
He will never let his little cousin die innocently, and whoever participates in the poisoning, none of them want to run!
The man couldn't stay in the inner palace for a long time, Xie Xun asked the imperial doctor Xie Guifei's physical condition, and after making sure that he was just overly frightened, he would get better after resting for a while, and then left the palace.
At this time, the early dynasty had passed, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty all knew the news of the death of the Seven Princes. The emperor declared to the public that he was sick and died.
"Hmph, don't you still expect my Xie clan to be grateful for his kindness?" Xie Xun sneered sarcastically.
"Why are there so many of them?" Xie Xun frowned and looked at the gate of the mansion, which was crowded with carriages, and immediately figured it out.
The prince supported by the Xie faction died, and Xie Pai suddenly lost the goal of struggle. They need to choose a new goal right away.
The sky above the Zhenguo Mansion was shrouded in a thick layer of clouds, and the mountain rain was coming.
"Xie Shizi~"
When Xie Xun entered the mansion, someone suddenly shouted, he looked back and immediately sneered.
The fifth prince, heh, I really can't wait!
"What are the five princes doing when they come to my Zhenguo Mansion at this time?" Xie Xun had a bad tone.
The fifth prince bowed down, and it was a ninety-degree bow, "I came here because my mother instructed me to tell Xie Shizi and Xie Shangshu that you don't have to worry about Xie Guifei." She will move to Ziyun Palace to live temporarily, take care of Concubine Xie, and serve the decoction. ”
"Oh, that's really thank you, Concubine De." Xie Xun said thank you, but his tone was full of mockery.
The fifth prince seemed to ignore it, and continued to be humble and polite, "When I was young, my mother and concubine were on good terms, but later the concubine lived in a simple house, so there was less contact. As friends, they should take care of each other. By the way, I'm here today for one thing. ”
Xie Xun looked at him and motioned for him to continue.
"In the past few months, I have been feeling guilty and sleepless. Today, I finally got the courage to ask again, can you marry Miss Xie to me? Although I am just an unfavored prince, I will never let her suffer the slightest grievance. If the Zhenguo Mansion agrees to this marriage, I promise that I will not accept a concubine in this life! ”
"The fifth prince, the seventh prince is newly mourned, but you are here to ask for marriage, isn't it okay?" Xie Xun pulled the corners of his mouth with a smile.
The fifth prince turned white and hurriedly confessed, "It's me who is abrupt." It's because I finally got the courage to mention it, I'm afraid that I'm going to leave this time, and I don't know if I dare to mention this matter in front of Xie Shizi again...... I'm a weak and incompetent ...... I won't bother Xie Shizi anymore. Leave! ”
The fifth prince bowed, and bowed at 90 degrees before leaving with a white face.
"Lord Shizi, what do you mean by the fifth prince?" Jiuwan frowned incomprehensibly, "Doesn't he know that there are many people in the palace in the Zhenguo Mansion, where does Concubine De need to take care of him?" ”
"He naturally knows, but it's just an excuse to come to the Zhenguo Mansion to show his face and show his sincerity." Xie Xun shook his head disdainfully, "It is worthy of the royal family, and sure enough, all of them are unkind." ”
In a luxury carriage.
"Your Highness, can Xie Shizi agree to your request?" The eunuch, a close confidant of the fifth prince, hugged the master, "How can Your Highness swear never to take a concubine?" Then Miss Xie is ugly, and she is already a high climb to be a concubine for you, how can she be blessed to be favored by you? ”
"What do you know?" The fifth prince smiled, "If you talk about appearance, even if Miss Xie grows into a heavenly immortal, she is not worthy of the prince's favor." But behind her is the Zhenguo Mansion, the Xie family...... As long as the Xie family is willing to support the prince, what if he was wronged in his early years? ”
Back then, my father suffered more grievances, didn't he also suffer bitterly?
The seventh brother died, and he felt that he had a good chance of winning......
Xie Xun didn't go to see the officials of the Xie faction, and went straight to Qingfeng Courtyard.
The old man sat at the window, looking up at the sky in distraction. Xie Xun was a little distressed.
The old man is worried about the future of the Xie family!
"Grandfather~" Xie Xun called softly.
Old Lady Xie slowly turned his head, "I'm back." Is your aunt okay? ”
Xie Xun wanted to say that it was very bad, and he was afraid that the old man would worry, so he pinched his head and went to the end and said, "Drink the pressure convulsion medicine, and I'm already asleep." The cousin should be buried in the imperial mausoleum. ”
The corners of Old Lady Xie's mouth twitched slightly, with irony, "Think that a piece of feng shui treasure can erase all the sins?" ”
The old man is also suspicious of the Dog Emperor!
The grandfather and grandson glanced at each other, and the old man changed the subject, "You didn't go to see your father?" ”
"Just now, the fifth prince and his grandson proposed to their eldest sister."
"How did you reply?"
"The grandson said that the cousin is newly mourned, and it is not appropriate to talk about marriage." Xie Xu's eyebrows were filled with extreme frustration and boredom, "Grandfather, is it possible that the Xie clan only supports those unkind people for one way?" ”
He was unwilling, unconvinced, and thinking of the ugly faces of those unkind people, he panicked in his heart......
