Chapter 312: The Queen Mother dies
Shen Yanshu and Yan Qinghan came to the front of the Zhaojun Mansion early in the morning, today is the day when Mother and Yun Hao went to Yuzhou with the people of the Anding Marquis Mansion, and they came to see them off.
Knowing that the emperor's power was no longer strong, Shen Yanshu's mood was also much more relaxed, and it didn't take long for him to be sent outside the city gate.
Jiang Wu looked at Shen Yanshu, her eyes were full of reluctance: "I don't know when we will see each other again, you have to take care of yourself." ”
Shen Yanshu nodded: "You also have to take care, I will go to Yuzhou to visit you when I have time." ”
The queue of the Marquis of Anding is very long, the city gate extends away, there are cavalry in front and behind, and in the middle is the carriage of the Hou Ye and the prince, Shen Yanshu waved goodbye to them, and watched his mother and Yun Hao get into the carriage, but there was a faint uneasiness in his heart.
The wind outside the city was very strong, blowing the flag on the city tower loudly, blowing Shen Yanshu's hair and her heart.
Adjutant General Andinghou rode his horse and shouted, "Let's go!"
However, as soon as his words fell, a heavy bell suddenly rang in the city, and again and again, and again, and every time he knocked it, Shen Yanshu's heart was shocked, and finally stopped.
A total of twenty-seven times, the bell of national mourning.
Shen Yanshu looked at Yan Qinghan on the side in surprise, his eyes were full of incredulity.
Suddenly a team of horses rushed out of the city gate, stepped on the dust, held a column of white flags, and headed towards the ranks of the Marquis of Anding.
"The Queen Mother is dead!" the leading young general shouted, "Anding Hou stay!"
Hearing the news of the death of the Queen Mother, Shen Yanshu almost fell down without standing firm, but was held up by Yan Qinghan.
Shen Yanshu looked up at Yan Qinghan, smiled bitterly, and then shook off Yan Qinghan's hand vigorously, turned over on his horse in an instant, and galloped towards the city!
"Shu'er!" Yan Qinghan looked at her like this, and was suddenly startled, thinking that she must have entered the palace immediately, so he also led a horse, straddled the horse, and chased in the direction of Shen Yanshu.
When Jiang Wu heard the news of the death of the Queen Mother, the whole person was surprised, how could the Queen Mother suddenly die...... This is impossible, if it weren't for the emperor's hands, how could the queen mother ......
The team of the Marquis of Anding still did not succeed, because the Queen Mother died, and it was reasonable that they should all leave after the national mourning period.
Chang'an City was in an uproar, although the Queen Mother had been ill for almost a month, no one thought that the Queen Mother would die like this.
The Queen Mother and the first emperor are in love, since the death of the first emperor, they have been concentrating on worshiping the Buddha, regardless of mundane things, they have never had any serious illness, but they did not expect to be defeated like this.
Shen Yanshu rode her horse in a hurry in the direction of the palace, her horseback was riding very fast, and the pedestrians on the road hurriedly dodged when they saw the sound of the horse's hooves, and before they could see the person on the horse's back, they had disappeared in front of them.
Dismounted in front of the palace gate, she walked quickly in the direction of the harem, and as soon as she arrived at Shou'an Palace, she saw a group of concubines and eunuchs kneeling in front of Shou'an Palace.
She saw Imperial Physician Li coming out, so she stepped forward and grabbed him by the collar: "How did the Queen Mother die?"
Imperial Physician Li didn't expect to be treated so rudely by Princess Ling when he came out, he wanted to resist, but when he saw Shen Yanshu's red eyes, as if he wanted to eat people, he couldn't help but tremble a little, and said: "The Queen Mother is overly worried and depressed, so she ......."
"You're lying!" Shen Yanshu stared at him, grabbed Imperial Physician Li's neck with his hand, and said in a deep voice, "I'll let you tell the truth!"
"What did Xia Guan say...... That's the truth!" "The first time Imperial Physician Li saw such a terrible Princess Ling, it was as if he was going to eat him.
Shen Yanshu looked at Imperial Doctor Li's hard-mouthed appearance, and just wanted to pinch his neck hard, when the emperor's scolding sounded beside him.
"The Queen Mother has just left, and she is so noisy in Shou'an Palace, what kind of system!" the emperor looked at Shen Yanshu with heavy eyes, a look of dissatisfaction.
Shen Yanshu pushed Mrs. Li away and looked at Yan Li.
Imperial Physician Li was pushed by Shen Yanshu like this, his feet were unstable, he stumbled a few times, and fell directly to the ground, only to hear a click, as if he had broken his bones.
Yan Li looked at the angry Shen Yanshu, narrowed her eyes slightly, looked at her, and said, "As a princess, you should look like a princess, now the queen mother, what are you doing!"
His appearance of hypocrisy and hypocrisy made Shen Yanshu even more sneering, she stepped forward, but she who paid the most attention to etiquette on weekdays was staring at Yan Li directly, with undisguised disgust in her eyes.
"How the Queen Mother died, I think the emperor knows best! Who is pretending to be so benevolent and filial now, and who is pretending to be it!" Shen Yanshu sarcastically said mercilessly.
Yan Li was furious: "Presumptuous!"
Shen Yanshu was about to continue to say something, but her arm was suddenly pulled, and she looked back and saw that it was Yan Qinghan.
Yan Qinghan said: "Father is angry, Shu'er is just too sad, so he will be speechless and deed, please forgive my father." ”
When Shen Yanshu heard him say this, he was unconvinced and wanted to shake off Yan Qinghan's hand, but he found that he was holding his arm tightly and couldn't break free.
Despite Yan Qinghan's explanation, Yan Li still saw disdain in Shen Yanshu's angry eyes.
He was a little angry in his heart, could it be that they knew something?
Looking at Shen Yanshu's appearance, he must have known about the fact that he had people drug the Queen Mother before......
Concubine Shu said on the side at this time: "Everyone is very sad when the Queen Mother dies, but Princess Ling is shouting in the hall, which seems to be too disrespectful!"
Shen Yanshu turned his head to look at Concubine Shu, his eyes fierce.
As soon as Concubine Shu saw her like this, she thought of the slap she gave herself, and the anger in her heart lingered.
Yan Qinghan helped Shen Yanshu over and said, "The deceased is the greatest, so let the imperial grandmother be quieter." ”
Shen Yanshu's eyes glared at Yan Li and Concubine Shu, and then walked into the mourning hall.
Looking at her arrogant gaze, Concubine Shu stepped forward and said in front of the emperor: "This Princess Ling is also too arrogant, she has no respect for her superiors, and she will commit the following crimes!"
The emperor didn't know what Shen Yanshu meant, Shen Yanshu was suspecting that the death of the Queen Mother was related to him, and his eyes shifted to Imperial Physician Li.
Imperial Physician Li was pushed to the ground by Shen Yanshu, his wrist was broken, and now he was in pain, looking at the emperor's suspicious gaze, he hurriedly knelt down and said, "Please ask the emperor to call the shots." ”
Yan Li's deep eyes flashed slightly, and he turned around and said, "Go to the imperial study and wait for me." ”
Imperial Physician Li replied yes.
The Queen Mother died suddenly, leaving everyone unprepared.
All the ministers changed into plain clothes and knelt outside the mourning hall.
Jiang Wu was even more godless, and her heart was sad, the Queen Mother had taken good care of her since she was a child, but now because she was poisoned, how could she not feel guilty...... She didn't expect that Yan Li had reached such a terrifying point that even the Queen Mother could do it.
As soon as Imperial Physician Li walked out of the imperial study, Su Xi stepped forward to report.
"Your Majesty, Mrs. Qi asks to see you. ”
Yan Li was stunned, he didn't expect Jiang Wu to take the initiative to come to him, he hurriedly said, "Please." ”
Su Xi's eyes flashed slightly, and he welcomed Jiang Yu in, and then retreated by himself.
Jiang Wu walked in and looked at him sitting at the desk, her eyes still full of indescribable disgust.
"I didn't expect that you would be desperate to keep me! You didn't even let go of the queen mother who raised you, what a difference between your actions and that of a beast!" Jiang Wu glared at Yan Li angrily, and the many dissatisfaction with him in her heart had reached the point of hatred today.
Yan Li was slightly stunned, but he didn't expect Jiang Wu to say such a thing as soon as she opened her mouth, he felt a little ridiculous: "Do you think the Queen Mother was killed by me?"
Jiang Wu said, "Who else can you have?"
Yan Li said: "It's not me, even if I have no humanity, I can't do such a thing!"
"Heh, what kind of thing can't be done by a person like you?" Jiang Wu glared at him angrily and said, "Don't think that paper can hold fire!"
Yan Li stared into her eyes and said, "I admit that I can do a lot of things in order to keep you, even regardless of my reputation and danger, but the Queen Mother is my mother, how can I be unfavorable to her?"
Yan Li really didn't understand, why did everyone think that the Queen Mother was his hand when she died?
Jiang Wu sneered and said, "Don't think that no one knows about the dirty things you did, why did the Queen Mother suddenly fall ill when she was in good health, if it weren't for your hands and feet, how could the Queen Mother's body be sick for more than half a month? Are you a fool when everyone else?"
Her words made Yan Li silent for a while, and Jiang Yu actually knew that the Queen Mother's illness was his doing......
He explained: "I admit that the Queen Mother's illness I asked Imperial Doctor Li to do something, but this is not a life-threatening threat to the Queen Mother's illness, her illness is my fault, but I never thought of letting the Queen Mother die. ”
"I won't believe a word of your words!" Jiang Wu stared at Yan Li's face and said, "Do you know why I haven't looked at you all the time? Because you are nothing compared to Qi Yi...... No, you don't even have the qualifications to compare with him! He is at least frank and honest in doing things, and you are just a shameless villain!"
"Sister-in-law......"
"Don't call me that, it will only make me feel disgusting!" Jiang Wu said angrily, "I used to be too cowardly, just thinking about escaping from your control, but now I won't let you succeed again, I want to tell all the people of the Great Zhou what kind of person their emperor is! He is an unkind and unrighteous villain who robs the wife of a minister and poisons the queen mother, and is unjust and unfilial!"
Listening to Jiang Wu's accusation, Yan Li's face was already gloomy to the extreme.
He stood up, walked in front of Jiang Wu, and said in a deep voice, "I'm despicable, I just want to get you." ”
Jiang Yu looked at Yan Li who was close at hand, a trace of murderous intent flashed in her eyes, she took out a dagger from her sleeve and stabbed it straight into Yan Li's chest!
Yan Li was startled, grabbed her wrist, and her eyes were full of anger: "You want to kill me?"
