The person who sent the news in was Emperor Xuan's confidant, so naturally he would not lie to Emperor Xuan, so he told everything that happened in the Second Prince's Mansion.

The second prince strengthened a maid, and after the maid threw herself into the well, not only the second prince was infected with smallpox, but the whole mansion was infected, and none of them survived.

Emperor Xuan listened to the reason for his henchman, and his face was gloomy as if he could drip water.

"Did they enter the palace?"

The guard said truthfully, "No, the second prince didn't dare to make a noise, and only quietly sent a message to Duan Guifei for help, otherwise the servants would not know about it." ”

After Emperor Xuan was silent for a moment, he said in a deep voice, "You immediately take an imperial doctor out of the palace to see the second prince, and bring someone to seal the second prince's mansion, don't let anyone come out." ”

The guards immediately responded, and when they were about to leave, Emperor Xuan stopped him again.

"Your Majesty, what else do you command?"

Emperor Xuan took a deep breath and said with determination, "The second prince doesn't have to send news to the palace before he is well, if the treatment is ineffective, burn it on the spot, and don't spread smallpox, understand?" ”

The last sentence is full of murderous energy.

The guards lowered their heads and didn't dare to breathe.

"Go ahead!"

Emperor Xuan waved his hand, and the guards withdrew.

Seeing that the door of the imperial study gradually closed, Emperor Xuan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, his back bent, and the whole person seemed to be a walking corpse that had been sucked dry.

He knew the consequences of his decision, but he also knew what the consequences would be if smallpox spread.

Now that the inside and outside of the capital are full of epidemics, so many doctors have gathered together but have not studied a way to come out, only relying on a prescription to support, if they can live, they can live, and if they can't live, they can only wait for death.

If smallpox spreads again, the people inside and outside the capital will definitely not be spared.

Emperor Xuan sat on the dragon chair decadently, staring blankly at the dragon stalk on the roof, and remembered the second prince when he was a child.

The second prince has been smart and cute since he was a child, and he is very smart at a young age, and his love for this son is never just superficial.

But now, he is going to kill this son himself.

Now the court is worried about internal and external troubles, but it was precisely at this time that the second prince had smallpox, and he had no way to get out of the way and compensate the people in the capital to save his life.

Thinking of this, Emperor Xuan raised his hand to cover his eyes, but tears still slipped down from the corners of his eyes.

The news of the siege of the second prince's mansion soon reached Yan Huai's ears, and he sat in the study, playing with the pen in his hand, his eyes full of sneers.

In front of interests and his own son, Emperor Xuan almost did not hesitate and directly chose the former.

The second prince has been abandoned!

"The king of the county, the second prince is imprisoned, we can finish him off!"

Hearing Qingfeng's words, Yan Huai's expression was very calm, "Don't worry, after all, he is the emperor's biological son, and he has been spoiled since he was a child, so he will always struggle for a few more days." ”

Qingfeng said in a low voice, "My subordinates are just afraid that he will escape death and have another accident." ”

"This time, no one can protect him."

Yan Huai looked confident, "You can't kill him immediately, after all, there is still a Duan Guifei in the palace, and he has to let him die without a trace, but he has to leave some clues for Duan Guifei and the Chen family." ”

Hearing this, Qingfeng looked worried, "King Jun, if you leave the handle, Concubine Duan will not stop." ”

Yan Huai chuckled, "The king of this county just let her and the powerful clan behind her not stop, and also asked them to use this as a raft to bite the eldest prince." ”

Qingfeng was surprised, "The king of the county is ...... Want to deal with the Great Prince? ”

Yan Huai added, "And the queen!" ”

As long as the queen is in one day, the eldest prince will not fall, as long as there is a great prince, the queen will not fall, one is a noble queen, and the other is a descendant of the East Palace, unless a big mistake is made, it is impossible to depose.

So, somebody had to pull them into the water.

Duan Guifei and his mother's family are the best executioners.

The concubines in the harem all have backgrounds, and they are intricate, as long as the two giants fight, who doesn't want a piece of the pie?

Those concubines who have princes, which one doesn't want their son to become the crown prince?

There are only a handful of adult princes, but there are still many young princes.

As long as the queen has the slightest crack, she will definitely be torn apart by those people.

And the third prince is a cripple, and he has long been excluded from the ranks of the crown prince, and no one will think of dealing with him.

The river mussels compete, and the fishermen profit!

……

When Duan Guifei knew that the second prince's mansion was besieged, two days had passed, and the people she sent out were detained, and she neither left the palace nor returned to the palace to restore her life, Duan Guifei could only go to Emperor Xuan.

But she didn't expect to be stopped before she could reach the imperial study.

Looking at the queen who deliberately stood in front of her, Duan Guifei endured her anxiety and respectfully greeted her.

The queen raised her hand slightly, and said in a sarcastic tone, "The concubine doesn't have to salute, this palace is waiting for you here on the emperor's orders." ”

Hearing this, Concubine Duan was surprised, "What imperial order?" ”

The queen stared at Duan Guifei and said in a deep voice, "The emperor has an edict that the concubine is not allowed to enter the imperial study during this time, and the emperor is unwilling to see you." ”

"How is that possible?"

Duan Guifei was shocked, "The concubine has something very important to report to the emperor, and she can't see the emperor." ”

The queen's face remained unchanged, and she said calmly, "Concubine, the emperor knows what you are asking for, the matter of the second prince, just now when the emperor announced the palace and the eldest prince went, he had already explained it to the palace. ”

"You lied to me!"

Duan Guifei didn't believe it at all, so she raised her feet and walked to the imperial study.

The queen immediately shouted, "Stop her!" ”

As soon as the words fell, several elderly grandmothers immediately stepped forward and surrounded Duan Guifei.

Duan Guifei raised her hand and hit one of them, and the steps on her head swayed slowly, "Presumptuous, the identity of this palace is also something that you can touch with the dirty hands of this?" ”

When the words fell, the queen suddenly shouted, "This palace is presumptuous when you see you, and you dare to call yourself this palace in front of this palace!" Palm!"

Duan Guifei was slapped twice with a frightened face, and the queen looked at her, her eyes were full of pride, "The second prince has smallpox, you know but don't report it, the emperor is very angry, this palace advises you to go back obediently now, otherwise it will anger the emperor, and you and your entire mother's head will not be enough to cut off!" ”

Duan Guifei couldn't control her emotions anymore, and broke down and shouted, "That's the second prince, the emperor's favorite son!" How could the emperor watch him die? ”

The queen sneered, "The emperor has sent an imperial doctor to treat the second prince, whether he can live or not depends on his own creation!" ”

Duan Guifei looked shocked, the queen said this, which was tantamount to letting her son die.

"This palace doesn't believe it, this palace wants to see the emperor's ......"

Before she could finish speaking, the queen hurried up to her and raised her hand to slap her twice.

The sharp armor scraped a few blood marks on Duan Guifei's beautiful face, adding a bit of miserable beauty to her.

The queen raised her hand and pinched her chin, staring at her face with jealousy, and her tone was gloomy, "Don't you know what's going on outside the palace?" The plague had killed so many people, and if smallpox had spread again, everyone would have died. ”

"Besides, your son was lucky that a palace maid had smallpox, and the emperor was so disappointed in him, how could he save him? He and the damned smallpox deserve to be burned, so that they don't add to their sins! ”
