Chapter 234: The Emperor Dies
The Queen Mother looked at Chu Xuanjin like this, distressed and angry at the same time.
Call your confidant, "Go and talk to King Jing and ask him what he wants?!" ”
She believed what the Imperial Doctor Ling said, but she believed Chu Xuanjin's words even more.
There is only one explanation for this situation, the poison skills of the person who poisoned Chu Xuanjin are far above the medical skills of the people in the Tai Hospital.
But it doesn't prevent useless people from disposing of it.
The Dark Guard soon brought the news.
"His Royal Highness King Jing said that he wants His Majesty to personally clarify what happened last night." The dark guard lowered his head and said to the Queen Mother.
Seeing that the dark guard wanted to speak and stopped, the Queen Mother asked, "What else did you say?" ”
The dark guard continued: "His Royal Highness King Jing said that the poison on His Majesty's body will only last for a day at most, and after one day, the toxin will completely erode the internal organs in the body, and then it will ......"
The dark guard didn't dare to say the next words.
But the meaning of this is already clear to the Queen Mother.
Die.
Chu Chengchi only gave one day, and if it was not clarified within one day, then Chu Xuanjin would only have a dead end.
But if it is clarified, then everyone in the world will know what kind of person the Great Zhou Emperor is, in order to get a woman, or a woman who has already been married, he actually used such a means to do it, and even forced the other party to marry him.
Once this news comes out, it is conceivable what the rumors will be.
The Queen Mother closed her eyes heavily, and what lingered in her ears was Chu Xuanjin's cry of pain.
"Queen mother, son-in-law hurts, son-in-law hurts."
"Queen Mother, is the son going to die?"
Listening to Chu Xuanjin's cry of pain, the Queen Mother's heart also hurt.
The Queen Mother hurriedly came to Chu Xuanjin's side, and said softly: "Don't worry about the emperor, it's going to be fine, it's going to be okay." ”
But no matter how much the Queen Mother said, it was not an antidote, and it could not relieve the pain on Chu Xuanjin's body, and her eyebrows were tightly wrinkled.
The dark guard asked the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, do you want to clarify?" ”
When the Queen Mother heard this, she immediately glared at him, "Do you think you want to clarify?" ”
The secret guard lowered his head and said to the Queen Mother: "If His Royal Highness King Jing does not speak, then this medicine will only last for one day, and after one day, if Your Majesty does not clarify, Your Majesty will die." ”
After a pause, the dark guard said, "If you lose your reputation, you can find a way to earn it back, but if you lose your life, you will have nothing." ”
Listening to the words of the secret guard, the Queen Mother's face was very ugly.
She didn't know that.
But......
Let the royal family admit her mistake, and she has to admit her mistake to Chu Chengchi in front of so many people, she can't lower her head no matter what.
Once you bow your head and admit your mistake, it means that the emperor has lost, and he has lost very completely.
It was not easy for her son to sit in that position, and she must not admit defeat easily.
Back then, the concubine was so favored that she could kill her, let alone just her son?!
The Queen Mother took a deep breath and said to the secret guard: "Immediately let the Imperial Hospital continue to come to show Your Majesty, no matter what method you use, you must find a way to alleviate Your Majesty's situation." ”
The dark guard looked at the Queen Mother in astonishment.
"Go!" The Queen Mother said sharply.
She was betting, betting on whether Chu Chengchi was exaggerating, betting on whether he was scaring them.
If it is clarified and admits defeat so quickly, then Chu Chengchi's next step can force the palace to seize the throne.
A person who can do such a thing is worthy of being the king of a country.
The Queen Mother sat down wearily on the soft collapse and closed her eyes heavily.
She calculated everything, but she didn't expect Sheng Qingyuan to care about her reputation at all, and she dared to bring such a thing to the surface.
I didn't expect that Yanbei's preparations were so sufficient.
Looking at Chu Xuanjin, who was still screaming in pain, the Queen Mother's eyes crossed with distress, patted the back of his hand gently, and said to him: "Emperor, you have to be patient, as long as we don't admit defeat, then we will definitely win, definitely!" ”
Even if she really loses the bet, then Chu Chengchi can't escape the charge of killing the king, and at most she will lose both!
Time passed without stopping, and the sun slowly hung high in the sky and slowly set.
There has been no further movement in the palace.
However, the opinions in the market have slowly tended to believe Sheng Qingyuan's statement.
This kind of thing, if you take a little bit, it must be the girl who suffers, but Sheng Qingyuan dared to bring this matter out and say it, and restored the details of what happened at that time, compared to Chu Xuanjin's very rough remarks, the people were obviously more willing to believe Sheng Qingyuan.
The border passes, the city gates of the capital, and the palace gates, the people stationed in them have not been withdrawn, and they are all waiting for the palace's response, but until the sun goes down, the palace still has no movement.
Chu Xuanjin in the dormitory has been restrained by the Queen Mother.
Because if he didn't tie his hands and feet again, then before the toxin completely attacked, Chu Xuanjin would have already scratched himself to death first.
Looking at the many extra blood marks on Chu Xuanjin's body, the Queen Mother was extremely distressed.
Chu Xuanjin kept shouting: "Queen Mother, I am in pain, it hurts—"
"You endure it again, bear with it again, as long as you endure it today, it's fine, bear with it, bear with it." The Queen Mother insisted.
The henchman secret guard couldn't help but say: "My subordinates went to King Jing's Mansion again, and His Royal Highness King Jing insisted that His Majesty come out to clarify in person, otherwise he would definitely not give His Majesty an antidote." ”
The Queen Mother's eyes flashed with a touch of fierceness, "Okay, then it depends on who can outperform whom!" ”
The dark guard looked at the Queen Mother disapprovingly, "Queen Mother, this is not appropriate. ”
"The mourning family doesn't believe that they dare to kill the king!" The Queen Mother gritted her teeth and said.
On the one hand, it is the face that can't be let go, and on the other hand, it is the life of his son.
The dark guard looked at the madness and persistence of the Queen Mother, and was very incomprehensible.
It's obviously not a difficult choice, so why gamble?
What if, King Jing's side really made a ruthless move and killed His Majesty?
At that time, the first emperor had no other heirs, and His Majesty had no heirs, only King Jing remained, and the throne of the Great Zhou would definitely fall into the hands of King Jing.
Such a simple truth, why can't the Queen Mother understand?
"What did the Imperial Doctor say?" The Queen Mother asked with a cold face.
The dark guard shook his head, "The Imperial Physicians still can't detect the cause of His Majesty's illness. ”
"Can't find it? What's the use of asking them?! The Queen Mother was angry.
She wanted to kill people, and she wanted to kill all the people who coveted the throne and helped Chu Chengchi.
The sun had completely set, and the twilight was fading.
The dark guard went to King Jing's Mansion again, but there was no intention of letting go from beginning to end.
The Queen Mother disliked the secret guard and went to Shen Zhao three or four times, and she was even more angry and ordered him not to go again.
At this time, Chu Xuanjin's face became more and more pale, so pale that there was hardly any blood on his face, and his face was full of pain.
The Queen Mother has only comfort in addition to comfort.
But comfort came and went, but it couldn't relieve Chu Xuanjin's pain.
The dark guard persuaded him again, but the queen mother seemed to have an obsession, and she was unwilling to bow to Shen Zhao and Sheng Qingyuan.
The moon rises and sets.
The setting sun rises again, and a new day arrives.
Chu Xuanjin's struggle and pain also seemed to be much less.
Looking at Chu Xuanjin's changes, the Queen Mother was overjoyed, "The mourning family knows it, and they know that Chu Chengchi is just scaring the mourning family, isn't it already much better to see Your Majesty like this?!" ”
The dark guard opened his mouth, but stopped talking.
Your Majesty's situation doesn't look much better, it's more like ...... Back to light.
Chu Xuanjin opened his eyes and looked at the Queen Mother, wanting to stretch out his hand to her, but his hand was restrained.
Seeing this, the Queen Mother hurriedly asked people to let go of Chu Xuanjin's hand.
But after his hand was released, Chu Xuanjin's hand could no longer be raised.
"Emperor, Emperor, wake up, wake up, it's already dawn, it's okay, it's okay." The Queen Mother hurriedly said to Chu Xuanjin.
However, no matter how the Queen Mother called, Chu Xuanjin could no longer give the Queen Mother any response.
Chu Xuanjin is dead.
The Queen Mother couldn't accept this fact, and went crazy, so she asked the imperial doctor to check it over and over again.
But people cannot be resurrected from death, and no matter how many times they are checked, they cannot change this fact.
The entire hospital couldn't help but tremble.
The news of the emperor's death immediately spread.
The people of the entire capital were stunned when they heard the death knell coming out of the palace.
With the news of the emperor's death, it was King Jing's crime of killing the king.
However, about King Jing's murder of the king, the Queen Mother couldn't come up with a single substantive evidence.
When Meng Kun went, no one saw it, only Chu Xuanjin saw what he looked like, but he still died.
Every time the Queen Mother's henchmen and secret guards brought back from King Jing's Mansion, they asked the emperor to clarify, and the extra words were fine, not to mention the poison.
Faced with the accusation of the Queen Mother's murder of the monarch, Shen Zhao was very calm and asked a group of imperial doctors and well-known doctors in the market to give Chu Xuanjin an autopsy.
The Queen Mother was extremely angry, but if she wanted to charge Shen Zhao with a crime, she could only conduct an autopsy and find poison related to him from it.
However, according to the results of the autopsy, no toxins were found in Chu Xuanjin's body, but the cause of Chu Xuanjin's death was found - Hualiu disease.
As soon as this news came out, the Queen Mother's face was like a color palette, quite colorful.
Searching for the cause of Hualiu disease, it was found that Chu Xuanjin was not satisfied with the concubines in the harem early on, and often sneaked out of the palace to go to the brothel.
This also explains why the emperor got flower willow disease.
Isn't that kind of place the most susceptible to this kind of dirty disease?
After the news spread, the people looked at the palace with a very disgusted expression.
When the Queen Mother heard the news, she was so angry that she spit it out in one breath, the whites of her eyes turned white, and she fainted.
obviously wanted everyone to know that it was Chu Chengchi who killed the monarch and rebelled, but why, why was this the result in the end.
She knew that Shen Zhao's handwriting must be indispensable to this.
However, she also knew a little about Chu Xuanjin sneaking out of the palace before, Chu Xuanjin spent most of her time playing in the harem and left state affairs to Zuo Ye, she also knew a little about it.
Therefore, if it weren't for Chu Xuanjin doing these things, Chu Chengchi would not have been able to start from this aspect.
Now, Chu Xuanjin's life has not been saved, and his face has been lost.
This is even more humiliating than directly admitting the matter of calculating Sheng Qingyuan.
In retrospect, admit it, add a little description, at most it will evolve into a fair lady and gentleman, but the means are a little more despicable.
No matter how much it is transmitted, it is much better than the current situation.
Only now did the Queen Mother understand this truth.
Unfortunately, by the time she figured it out, it was too late.
To add insult to injury, Zuo Ye, who had been rescued by Shen Zhao's people before, stood up at this time and listed all the things he had done for Chu Xuanjin over the years.
Among them, including but not limited to the framing of the Zhenguo Mansion, as well as the murder of Shen Zhao back then.
One by one, they turned out, and they couldn't finish talking about it for a few days and nights.
These things were compiled into pamphlets by people with good intentions and widely circulated in the community.
