Sword Xia of the Shu Mountains Chapter 61: Let the snake out of the hole


It has been more than a month since Chang Lingyun was ordered by Emperor Wanli to attack the demon world, and the time limit agreed by Wu Ruoyun and Emperor Wanli has come; in this more than a month, Wu Ruoyun has never forgotten Chang Lingyun She always believed in her heart that the lover in her dream would definitely defeat the demons and return in triumph, and then asked the emperor to grant her a marriage and marry her with the scenery of the eight-carrying sedan chair. Admiration, Wu Ruoyun didn't take it to heart at all, all he could have in his heart was gratitude and sympathy for him. When she and Emperor Wanli were in the imperial garden, they performed the qin and xiao ensemble together again. After the performance, Wu Ruoyun said to Emperor Wanli

"Your Majesty, the one-month deadline that you and I agreed on has come. You promised Ruoyun that in a month's time, if you can't completely impress my heart, you won't be entangled in me again?"

Emperor Wanli nodded and replied simply

"Yes"

"Since this month's deadline has passed, all Ruoyun is thinking about is Brother Lingyun. Should the emperor let Ruoyun go back to the Prime Minister's Office?"

Although Wu Ruoyun's words are reasonable, Emperor Wanli is still unwilling. He does not believe that all the efforts in this month have not touched Wu Ruoyun's heart a little

"Is it true that you are not touched at all by what I have done to you over the past month?"

And Wu Ruoyun's answer made Emperor Wanli's heart suddenly fall to the bottom of the cold lake

"Yes, Your Majesty, Ruoyun's heart has been given to Chang Lingyun for a long time, and the only thing I feel for the Emperor is that I am grateful to the Emperor for his dedication and sincerity to Ruoyun over the past month. Ruoyun really can't bear the Emperor. My love, I beg the emperor to let me go back to the Prime Minister's Office to wait for my brother Lingyun's return"

After listening to Wu Ruoyun's words, Emperor Wanli turned his back to Wu Ruoyun and was unwilling to let the woman he still loves see the pain, helplessness and disappointment on his face. After adjusting his emotions, Emperor Wanli felt powerless said to Wu Ruoyun

"Luohua intends to follow the flowing water, and the flowing water has no intention of falling in love with Luohua. Since you don't love me at all in your heart, what's the use of keeping you? It's just that I was confused and fell in love with you. From now on, I allow you to be free. , you will pack up everything in a while and go back to the Prime Minister's Office"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Ruoyun retire"

After Wu Ruoyun finished speaking, he exited the imperial garden without looking back, but Emperor Wanli still had his helpless expression on his face and stood motionless in a daze.

At this time, in the Council Chamber, Wei Zhongxian was approving the memorials written by the civil and military officials for Emperor Wanli. When he turned to a memorial written by Wang Yu, the minister of military affairs, his brows suddenly became very tight, because the memorial was about Chang Lingyun's triumphant return after going out to the demon world and defeating the demon clan. It is mentioned that Chang Lingyun was brought to the Wanyao Kingdom by Zhu Yunwen, the king of the Wanyao Kingdom, because of internal injuries after he captured Fumoshan and defeated the Demon King Boduojin. In addition to these, the memorial also mentioned Yuan Chonghuan and Qi Yunpeng. The two generals are leading the Ming Dynasty army that conquered the demon world and are about to return to the capital. Wei Zhongxian became nervous after seeing this. He immediately ordered one of his eunuchs to call Wang Yu, the Minister of War, to discuss the government. hall.

When Wang Yu entered the council hall, he hurriedly asked Wei Zhongxian for peace

"The minister Wang Yu pays a visit to the nine thousand years old"

Wei Zhongxian raised his arm gently and said

"No gift!"

"Thank you for nine thousand years"

At this time, Wei Zhongxian left his seat, walked to Wang Yu with brisk steps, and said with a gloomy smile

"The name Nine Thousand Years can't be called casually. If the emperor hears it, he will be killed, but it doesn't matter if the emperor is not here for you to call it that. Anyway, I, Wei Zhongxian, are alone now. below ten thousand people"

"Yes, nine thousand years old"

Wang Yu used to be a member of the Donglin Party. After Gu Xiancheng was framed by Wei Zhongxian and Emperor Wanli, under the coercion and enticement of the **** party, he turned to serve the **** party and was promoted by Wei Zhongxian to become a member of the imperial court. Minister of War

"I don't know why nine thousand years old called me here"

"It's okay? I just wanted to ask you a favor"

"If there is any need, feel free to speak at Nine Thousand Years Old, Wang Yu is willing to go through fire and water for Nine Thousand Years old, and will never give up"

"Hahaha, my father-in-law knows your loyalty, so you don't need to say these polite words. This father-in-law called you here just to ask if you wrote this memorial?"

Wang Yu answered honestly

"Written by Wang Yu, what's wrong with Nine Thousand Years?"

"No, there's nothing wrong with the memorial you wrote, but I think there are some things in your memorial that need to be changed, because there are some things I don't want the emperor to know about, as long as you help me, I will definitely not bad for you"

"Okay, no problem, may I ask Jiuqiansui, how should I change this memorial?"

"Hehe, you are really loyal, and you promised so readily"

After Wei Zhongxian finished speaking, he patted Wang Yu's shoulder with satisfaction, and then said while circling around Wang Yu

"You only need to change the fact that Chang Lingyun was rescued by the king of the Wanyao Kingdom in this memorial to Chang Lingyun's death in battle on the way to conquer Fumo Mountain"

However, Wei Zhongxian's request aroused the curiosity in Wang Yu's heart. He looked into Wei Zhongxian's eyes with a puzzled face and couldn't help asking

"Why do you want to change it this way?"

Wei Zhongxian glared at him immediately, then raised his voice and scolded sharply

"Bastard, do I need to inform you of what my father-in-law does?"

After Wei Zhongxian's scolding, Wang Yu immediately became honest, he said to Wei Zhongxian with a smile

"What nine thousand years old taught is that Wang Yu will do it"

"Well, very good, very good, my father-in-law likes obedient people like you. The reason why you can climb to the position of minister of war is entirely due to my father-in-law's promotion. As long as you continue to be so obedient, this father-in-law will definitely give You have more opportunities for promotion”

"Thank you for the kindness of Jiuqiansui, Wang Yu will swear allegiance to Jiuqiansui"

However, the conversation between the two of them was heard by Haining, the commander of Jin Yiwei who was in charge of patrolling outside the council hall.

After Wang Yu revised the memorial according to Wei Zhongxian's instructions, Wei Zhongxian took the revised memorial to Emperor Wanli's bedroom. When he came to the secret room to meet Emperor Wanli again, Emperor Wanli read the memorial. said later

"Are you really sure that Chang Lingyun is dead?"

"It is absolutely true, Your Majesty, this is the accurate news reported by the frontline spies to the Minister of War"

After listening to Wei Zhongxian's words, Emperor Wanli said with a smile

"Hehe, I don't think he died in battle but was poisoned, do you think I'm right?"

Wei Zhongxian immediately gave a thumbs up to Emperor Wanli and praised

"Aiya, the emperor is really wise, I guessed that Chang Lingyun was poisoned"

At this time, Emperor Wanli put down the memorial in his hand and couldn't help but think of Chang Lingyun's arrogant attitude and extreme contempt for the emperor's dignity when he was in power when he was in power, and his face immediately showed an angry expression . He couldn't help roaring loudly

"Chang Lingyun is a dead man. I have long wanted to put him to death in my heart, but it is a pity that he has a stunt that I have never been able to do. Fortunately, you helped me think of the trick of poisoning, and finally for the sake of it. I got rid of this confidant.”

After listening to Emperor Wanli's words, Wei Zhongxian at this time actually thought of letting Emperor Wanli take possession of Chang Lingyun's fiancée Wu Ruoyun, so he said something to Emperor Wanli with a gloomy smile

"Your Majesty, since Chang Lingyun is dead, can your Majesty accept Wu Ruoyun as his concubine?"

Unexpectedly, Emperor Wanli did not have this evil idea of ​​Wei Zhongxian

"No, I can't do this. Wu Ruoyun is also the biological daughter of my teacher Zhang Juzheng. Besides, I have made a bet with her again. If I fail to impress her after more than a month, I will Give her back her freedom, the so-called Jun Wu joking, since I couldn't impress her, I should let her go."

After listening to Emperor Wanli's words, Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, so he immediately changed the subject

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen has another request"

"What is the request?"

"Chang Lingyun has appointed Nuerhaci, the leader of the Jurchen clan, as the governor of Nuer Gandusi with the golden decree given by the emperor. Those Jurchen clansmen are all savage and sturdy, and are good at riding and archery. A piece of heart disease in the region; it is not as good as the emperor, you personally decreed that Yuan Chonghuan, the deputy general of the expedition, led the remaining army of the expedition of the demons without having to go back to the DPRK.

After listening to Wei Zhongxian's words, Emperor Wanli readily agreed to his request

"Okay, this is a good idea, then I will now order Yuan Chonghuan to directly send the remaining troops to Liaodong, without having to go back to the DPRK"

"The emperor is really wise"

Actually, Wei Zhongxian did this to prevent Yuan Chonghuan from telling Chang Lingyun the truth that he had gone to Wan Yaoguo after returning to the capital, so as to facilitate the implementation of his next conspiracy

At this time, Wu Ruoyun had already returned to the East Palace. After she had packed up and organized everything, she walked out towards the gate. When she was about to leave the palace and return to the Prime Minister's Office, she saw Emperor Wanli. He and Wei Zhongxian were standing at the gate. When Wu Ruoyun saw the Wanli Emperor, he immediately saluted the Wanli Emperor

"Wu Ruoyun, a small man, sees the emperor. I don't know why the emperor is here?"

After listening to Wu Ruoyun's words, Emperor Wanli pretended to be very sad, then sighed and said

"I'm here to tell you bad news. I didn't want to tell you at first, but even if I don't tell you now, you will know sooner or later, long pain is worse than short pain, I hope you listen Don't be too sad afterward"

After listening to Emperor Wanli's words, Wu Ruoyun's heart immediately became nervous. She was afraid that she would hear any bad news about Chang Lingyun, but unfortunately, what Emperor Wanli wanted to tell her was the last thing she wanted to hear. Arrived news

"Excuse me, Your Majesty, what's the news?"

Emperor Wanli lowered his head silently and said helplessly

"Chang Aiqing died on the way to conquer the demon world"

After hearing this, Wu Ruoyun seemed to have encountered a thunderbolt from the blue and stood motionless as if she had lost her soul. After she adjusted her mind and regained her senses, she asked Emperor Wanli again, My heart still refuses to accept this cruel reality

"Your Majesty, what were you talking about? Please tell me it's not true"

Emperor Wanli shook his head slightly and said with a heavy heart

"Miss Ruoyun, it's unfortunate, this is true, Chang Lingyun sacrificed his life for the country and sacrificed himself on the front line, I feel very sad, people can't be resurrected from the dead, you mourn"

At this time, the despicable Wei Zhongxian deliberately pretended to be sad in order to continue to destroy Wu Ruoyun's heart that was about to collapse completely, so that she could do some stupid things

"Is this the news that the Minister of War received from the front-line spies yesterday, can it still be false? What's more, the emperor has come to tell you about this matter in person, which is enough to see that this matter cannot be false. Prime Minister The lord is loyal to the monarch and patriotic, sacrifices his life for justice, and serves the country, but in the end he died in the front line, and the servants are also saddened by it. Miss Wu, you must be strong, and don’t think about committing suicide for the Prime Minister.”

Listening to Wei Zhongxian's words, Wu Ruoyun's heart was hurt to the extreme. She stared blankly at the front, thinking of the words "suicide by love" that Wei Zhongxian just mentioned, she actually had a thought in her heart. The thought of dying for Chang Lingyun, she said coldly

"Brother Lingyun is dead, I will never live in the world, I should also go with him"

After finishing speaking, Wu Ruoyun lowered his head and bumped into a red pillar, but the Wanli Emperor, who responded in a timely manner, hugged him

"Miss Ruoyun, why are you so stupid? You only have one life, why don't you cherish it well? Your spirit in the sky, Brother Lingyun, definitely doesn't want to see you looking for death like this now, why do you want to be so mean to yourself?"

At this time, Wu Ruoyun was struggling desperately in the arms of Emperor Wanli. He only wanted to sacrifice his love for Chang Lingyun. He couldn't listen to any words of Emperor Wanli, while Wei Zhongxian stood by and did nothing, with a trace on the corner of his mouth. Indifferent smile.

However, just when she was desperately trying to get out of the arms of Emperor Wanli, the poison in her body invaded her internal organs at this moment, causing her whole body to lose the slightest strength, and her body immediately froze; no After a while, she fell into Emperor Wanli's arms, closed her eyes tightly and never woke up again. When Emperor Wanli saw this situation, she quickly shouted loudly in Wu Ruoyun's ear

"Miss Ruoyun, Miss Ruoyun, wake up, wake up"

However, no matter how the Wanli Emperor shouted, Wu Ruoyun couldn't wake up; so the Wanli Emperor called the imperial physician and personally held her on the bed where she lived in the East Palace. When the imperial physician took her pulse, he shook his head and said to Emperor Wanli

"Your Majesty, this girl is already dying from the poison, and the old man is really helpless"

After listening to the imperial doctor's words, Emperor Wanli asked nervously and anxiously

"Is there no other way?"

"There is a way, unless we can find out what poison is in her"

At this moment, Wu Ruoyun, who was in a coma, suddenly coughed up a pool of black blood from his mouth. The imperial doctor wiped a little black blood with a white cloth and took a closer look, and he immediately understood

"It turns out that this girl has Heiyunsan. Judging from the color of her blood, she has been intoxicated for twenty-eight days. The reason why this poison is called Heiyunsan is because when it encounters water, it will A mist like a black cloud formed in the water, and then the water was dyed as black as ink. According to the old man's inference, she must have been tricked into taking this poison."

"What should I do to get rid of the poison?"

"You still need to ask the poisoner to know this?"

"Poisoner?"

"Yes, that's right, as the saying goes, you need to be a bell guy. If you want to get rid of the poison in this girl's body, you have to find the poisoner, because only the poisoner can understand the poison of Heiyunsan. In addition, this girl has only two days left to live, and if she can't find the antidote within two days, she will be devastated and bleed to death, this is all the old man knows."

"Okay, you go down"

"Yes, Your Majesty"

After the imperial physician left the East Palace, Emperor Wanli hurriedly said to Wei Zhongxian

"Wei Aiqing, take out your copy of "Drug Production Cheats" and see if Ouyang Feng has any records that can cure Heiyunsan"

"Yes, Your Majesty"

So, Wei Zhongxian opened the "Drug Production Cheats" that he carried with him and searched it. When he turned to the page of Heiyunsan, he deliberately tore out the page introducing Heiyunsan, and then Close the book and say to Emperor Wanli

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, there is no introduction to Heiyunsan in this "Cheat of Drug Making"

"How could this happen, you must have not found it, you brought me the "Drug Making Cheats" for me to see"

"Yes"

After he finished speaking, Wei Zhongxian handed the "Drug-Manufacturing Secret Book" to Emperor Wanli. When the Wanli Emperor picked up this "Drug-Manufacturing Secret Book" and opened it, he searched it for a long time, but he did not find any information about Heiyunsan Poison. He was very disappointed and returned the secret to Wei Zhongxian.

"How could this happen? Wu Ruoyun will be dead in two days. Why don't you have this secret book?"

While Wei Zhongxian wanted to kill Wu Ruoyun, he said to Emperor Wanli indifferently

"Everything is determined, maybe Wu Ruoyun is destined to have this catastrophe, I think the emperor should prepare the future for Wu Ruoyun"

However, Emperor Wanli still refused to give up the hope of saving Wu Ruoyun, and he said to Wei Zhongxian with a very firm attitude

"No, how can this work? Wu Ruoyun is the biological daughter of my mentor Zhang Juzheng. I can't give up no matter what, even if there is a glimmer of hope, I will save her"

After he finished speaking, the figure of Concubine Zheng suddenly appeared in his mind, so he muttered to himself

"Could it be her?"

After speaking, he ordered Wei Zhongxian

"Wei Aiqing, I order you to use a trick to force Concubine Zheng to show her true colors"

"Your Majesty, is it difficult for you to suspect that it was the poison of Concubine Zheng?"

"Yes, although there is no evidence in my hands, I have a hunch that Wu Ruoyun's poisoning must be related to her. After you force her to take action, I will definitely ask her to understand"

On the other hand, Concubine Zheng Gui, who lives in Changshou Palace, was taking a shower in her boudoir. When she finished bathing and was served by servants, she changed her clothes and was about to leave Changshou Palace to go outside, but she saw Wei Zhongxian rushed to her in front of her, knelt down and salutes

"Meet the Empress, the servants have urgent requests today"

"Oh, yes? You get up first"

"Xie Niangniang"

After Wei Zhongxian stood up, Concubine Zheng asked him

"Don't you want to cooperate with me? Why are you harassing this palace again?"

"If you go back to the mother, please allow the servants to enter the palace. It's inconvenient to talk here"

"Okay, I promise you"

After Wei Zhongxian followed Zheng Guifei into the Changshou Palace, he began to speak

"The slave knows that the crime is very serious, so the niece thinks of letting Ke Yinyue assassinate the slave. The slave is really a sin and deserves death; but the slave doesn't hate the niece in his heart, the slave only asks you to save my beloved wife, she is now The poison of intestinal powder has been interrupted, and I only have three days to live. As long as the mother is kind and willing to give my wife the antidote, Wei Zhongxian is willing to do anything for her.”

After listening to Wei Zhongxian's words, Concubine Zheng looked at Wei Zhongxian with suspicion and asked coldly

"You really don't remember hating Ben Gong?"

At this time, Wei Zhongxian had already seen through Concubine Zheng's thoughts. In order to make Concubine Zheng fully believe in himself, he deliberately pretended to be very loyal to Concubine Zheng and said

"The maiden's kindness to the servants will always be remembered by the servants. Without the help of the servants, there would be no servants today. How can the servants dare to hate the servants, it's just because the servants are not loyal to the servants, so the servants want to borrow the hand of the guest Yinyue. Getting rid of the slaves is the fault of the slaves. It has failed the goddess's kindness to the slaves. The slaves should be punished like this. I ask the goddess to give the slaves a chance to continue to serve the goddess. Save my beloved wife"

After he finished speaking, he knelt down on the ground again and slammed his forehead three times on the ground, with a pleading expression on his face; seeing his sincere and sincere attitude, Concubine Zheng felt very happy. She believed Wei Zhongxian's deliberately hypocritical loyalty; she said to Wei Zhongxian, who was kneeling on the ground

"You get up first"

After Wei Zhongxian stood up again, Concubine Zheng continued to say to him

"Ben Gong believes in your loyalty, as long as you promise to help me persuade the emperor to change my son Chang Xun as the crown prince, I will come up with an antidote for you to save your precious wife; she has only three days now , if you can convince the emperor within these three days, this palace will give you the antidote"

After listening to Zheng Guifei's words, Wei Zhongxian waved his hand and said

"Niangniang, this method of yours will not work. Zhu Changluo is the emperor's most favored child. No matter how much a servant tries to persuade him, he will never be able to persuade the emperor to change His Highness King Fu as the crown prince"

"Then what do you say?"

"If you want to return to the Empress, if you want the emperor to change His Highness King Fu as the crown prince, there is only one way"

"What's the solution?"

"That is to get rid of Zhu Changluo"

As soon as Wei Zhongxian said this, Concubine Zheng was shocked, and a surprised expression appeared on her face.

"What did you say?"

So Wei Zhongxian explained to her

"Niangniang, think about it, the emperor now has only two sons, Zhu Changluo and His Royal Highness Fu Wang, who remain in the palace. No matter who they are, they are qualified to become the prince, and the emperor has decided to let Zhu Changluo be the prince. If we If you don't get rid of Zhu Changluo, then His Royal Highness Fu Wang will never have the chance to become the prince. Once Zhu Changluo is dead, then His Royal Highness Fu Wang's crown will be justified and deserved."

Zheng Guifei saw that Wei Zhongxian's words were reasonable, so she adopted Wei Zhongxian's suggestion

"You can do it, just do as you say, you are in charge of all the power within the court now, even if the emperor knows that you did it, he can't help you, as long as you make Chang Xun the emperor , then Ben Gong will be the Queen Mother in the future, and you Wei Zhongxian still have supreme power, as long as you help Ben Gong, Ben Gong will definitely not treat you badly"

"Thank you for the slaves"

"When can I do it?"

"If possible, I will do it tomorrow night. Tomorrow night, the slaves will dismiss all the guards outside the East Palace to help the Empress have the opportunity to assassinate the Prince, and the Emperor will stay in the West Palace for one night, which will not affect our plans"

"Okay, then this palace will send Zhang Cha to take Zhu Changluo's head on the neck tomorrow night, and then set the East Palace on fire with a torch, creating the illusion that the East Palace is on fire, and there must be no clues"

At this time, Concubine Zheng was still not at ease with Wei Zhongxian, she squinted at Wei Zhongxian in front of her and threatened to say

"Don't play tricks on me. Your wife's life is in my hands. If you dare to deceive me again, I will make you regret it for the rest of your life"

While Wei Zhongxian said to Concubine Zheng with a smile on his face

"Where is the noble concubine, the lady, I, Wei Zhongxian, are already the lady of the lady, and the lady is the hope of my future. How could I possibly deceive my future and deceive the lady?"

After listening to Wei Zhongxian's words, Zheng Guifei said with a smile

"Hehe, if you are acquainted, tomorrow you will discuss when to start"

"Yes, madam"

Tomorrow night, Wei Zhongxian dismissed all the guards outside the East Palace according to yesterday's plan, and then secretly led Zhang Cha into the East Palace, pointing to the gate of the East Palace and saying to Zhang Cha

"His Royal Highness is resting inside. If you want to go in, don't make a big noise, so as not to disturb the entire East Palace"

"Got it, Eunuch Wei"

After Zhang Chai finished speaking, he took a red mace and rushed to the gate of the East Palace in the direction of Wei Zhongxian's fingers, and then quietly entered the East Palace. When Zhang Chai entered the East Palace, he saw a man dressed in The young man in the mang robe was reading a book seriously and turned his back to himself. Zhang Chai thought in his heart that this person must be the prince.

So he raised the mace in his hand and wanted to smash the stick on his head while he was not paying attention. However, when he was about to act, the "Prince" suddenly turned around and faced Zhang Chai. "Prince Prince" turned around to face Zhang Chai, he was instantly stunned, it turned out that the man wearing the python robe was not the prince at all, but Wei Zhongxian's wife Ke Yinyue, when Ke Yinyue took the book in her hand Throwing it **** the ground, dozens of Guards lurking outside the East Palace rushed into the East Palace under the leadership of Haining and surrounded Zhang Chai; only then did Zhang Chai realize that he had been taken by Wei Zhongxian

"Zhangchai, what's the crime of you bringing a stick into the palace to assassinate the prince?"

Headed Haining pointed at Zhang Chai, who was holding a mace, with his saber and asked angrily

Zhang Chai didn't answer Haining's question. He didn't want to be caught so quickly, and he had such a good martial arts skill that he had to resist for a while and maybe there was a chance to escape; so he raised it without saying a word. The mace attacked the Janissaries around Haining, and at this time, Ke Yinyue immediately drew out her sword and fought with the Janissaries to besiege Zhangcha, while Haining stood by and watched them confidently. grips. When Zhang Chai, Ke Yinyue and the Guards fought for a round, many of the Guards were knocked to the ground by Zhang Cha because they could not resist Zhang Cha's attack. After Ke Yinyue fought Zhang Cha for three rounds He was defeated, got a kick in the chest, and then fell to the ground.

After seeing this, Haining angrily raised his sword and attacked Zhang Chai. Compared with Haining's martial arts, Zhang Chai still has a certain gap in strength. Haining served as the commander of Jinyiwei in the palace. After so many years, after undergoing brutal training unimaginable to ordinary people, he has already practiced an extraordinary martial arts. In less than four rounds, Zhang Cha was subdued and ordered his subordinates to tie Zhang Cha.

At this time, Prince Zhu Changluo and Wei Zhongxian walked in from outside the palace gate. After seeing Wei Zhongxian who was smiling, Zhang Chai cursed

"Wei Zhongxian, you are a despicable villain, the goddess is so kind to you, you even betrayed the goddess, you are really ungrateful, not as good as pigs and dogs"

Wei Zhongxian didn't care about Zhang Cha's abuse, he said to Zhang Cha with a gloomy smile

"I, Wei Zhongxian, have always been the emperor's person, and I will only be loyal to the emperor all my life. If you want to blame yourself, you can blame yourself for being too stupid and always treating me as a person of the goddess"

At this time, Prince Zhu Changluo said to Wei Zhongxian

"Wei Zhongxian, you really have a good plan. You know that there will be assassins tonight to assassinate the prince, so the prince is prepared in advance"

After speaking, Zhu Changluo stared at Zhang Chai in front of him and asked him angrily

"Why do you want to assassinate me? If you are wise, say it as soon as possible. This prince can save you from death"

After listening to the prince's words, Zhang Chai said with a slight smile

"Hahaha, do you need to ask me about this kind of thing? After you ask Wei Zhongxian, it will be clear"

At this time, Wei Zhongxian said to Zhu Changluo

"His Royal Highness, the behind-the-scenes messenger is Zheng Guifei"

After listening to Wei Zhongxian's words, Zhu Changluo ordered

"Let's go, take this assassin to Changshou Palace, this prince must ask him clearly"

At this time, the Changshou Palace had been surrounded by the imperial guards who had been ambushed by Emperor Wanli personally, leaving Concubine Zheng Gui and Zhu Changxun's mother and daughter trapped inside. When the other imperial guards took Zhang Cha to Changshou Palace, Zhu Changluo hurriedly said to his father, Emperor Wanli

"Father, the assassin has been caught. His name is Zhang Chai, and he was ordered to assassinate the boy under the order of Concubine Zheng"

After listening to Zhu Changluo's words, Emperor Wanli looked at his eldest son very lovingly, and then gently stroked Zhu Changluo's head with his hand for a while and said

"I will go to Changshou Palace with you now"

When Wei Zhongxian and his wife, Wanli Emperor and Zhu Changluo and their sons escorted Zhang Cha into the Changshou Palace, Wanli Emperor said to Zheng Guifei

"Zheng Yingying, you are Zheng's favorite concubine. You dare to send a murderer to assassinate the prince behind my back. Now that the murderer and witnesses are here, what else do you have to say? You are so disappointing to me"

After listening to the words of Emperor Wanli, Concubine Zheng said

"Your Majesty, all this is Wei Zhongxian's idea. If the Emperor wants to blame Wei Zhongxian, you should blame Wei Zhongxian"

"Don't blame Wei Aiqing, I deliberately asked Wei Aiqing to assassinate the crown prince with you, and then made an excuse to lure you into the bait. Wei Aiqing is an undercover agent I sent by your side, and I only work for me, I have long ago Knowing that you have bad intentions, you are thinking of making your son Chang Xun the crown prince, so let Wei Zhongxian act as an undercover agent"

After listening to his father's words, Zhu Changluo muttered

"It turned out to be the play arranged by you, Emperor Father!"

"Yes, that's right, this trick is called attracting snakes out of their holes, and it's a tactic designed to make the bad guys show their true colors"

After hearing what Emperor Wanli said, Concubine Zheng angrily stared at Wei Zhongxian who was standing next to Emperor Wanli and cursed

"It turns out that you **** has been betraying me all the time, so that Ben Gong always thinks that you are the person beside Ben Gong, do you forget that Ben Gong sent someone to assist your **** party and tripped the Donglin party. Are you Wei Zhongxian today? You ungrateful dog, you have to die"

Wei Zhongxian didn't care about Concubine Zheng's abuse, he looked at Concubine Zheng with a sinister smile and said

"Haha, Niangniang's kindness to the slaves has long since vanished from the moment Niangniang forced my wife to assassinate me. The reason why Niangniang is today is entirely because Niangniang is the result of your own fault"

When Wei Zhongxian mentioned his wife, Concubine Zheng thought of the poisonous Ke Yinyue

"Ke Yinyue, I never thought that even you would dare to betray this palace. Don't forget that you still have the poison of broken heart powder on your body that has not been cured. Without my antidote, you will not survive for three days, but you betrayed me today. There will never be an antidote for you, you just wait to die slowly"

"Niang Niang, you don't have to worry, Wei Lang has already solved the poison on Yin Yue's body, so I don't need your antidote at all"

After listening to Ke Yinyue's words, Concubine Zheng was stunned for a moment

"What did you say? The poison of Broken Heart Powder has no cure except my antidote. How could this happen"

At this time, Wei Zhongxian said

"Niangniang, there is a secret book in the slave's hand called "The Secret Book of Drug Production", which was written by Ouyang Feng, the owner of the White Camel Village in the Song Dynasty. It records the detoxification method of Broken Heart Powder. Niangniang, are you disappointed?"

And Ke Yinyue also said at this time

"Niang Niang, the reason why you have fallen today is entirely your own fault. It is still a violation of God's fault, and you cannot live by yourself. The emperor will execute you today"

"You're right, girl"

After the Wanli Emperor finished speaking, he waved his hand; after a while, from outside the palace gate of Changshou Palace, a dozen or so guards in armor and fully armed guards surrounded Zheng Guifei's mother and son; at this time , Emperor Wanli spoke again

"Zheng Yingying, don't blame me for not being merciful to me today because of your guilt. From tomorrow onwards, you will take Chang Xun to leave the palace and go to Luoyang. I don't want to see you again"

After speaking, Emperor Wanli said to Zhu Changxun again

"Chang Xun, you were bewitched by your mother to want to compete with your elder brother for the crown prince. I don't blame you. From tomorrow onwards, you will leave the capital and go to Luoyang to be your lucky king"

After listening to his father's words, Zhu Changxun immediately arched his arms, bowed his head and said to his father

"Thank you for not killing the emperor"

At this time, after Emperor Wanli gave the order, he no longer had the time to look at their mother and daughter, he waved his hand and sighed

"Put them both down"

However, when Zheng Guifei's mother and daughter were about to be escorted out of the Changshou Palace by the Imperial Guard, the Wanli Emperor asked Zheng Guifei such a sentence

"Wait a minute, I have something I want to ask you, did you poison the black cloud powder in Wu Ruoyun?"

After listening to Emperor Wanli's question, Concubine Zheng replied with a sneer

"Yes, it's mine"

"Why are you doing this?"

"Because of this bitch, she deserves to die, who made the emperor think of her every day for more than a month and spoil her, so that I can no longer get the emperor's love, so she must die"

Concubine Zheng's words shocked Emperor Wanli. He didn't expect a woman's jealousy to be so extreme and terrifying, but what he wanted more was how to get rid of the poison in Wu Ruoyun's body

"Will you tell me where the antidote is?"

Zheng Guifei laughed and said

"Hahaha, in order to detoxify the poison of Heiyunsan, you have to cut the neck of the poisoned person with a knife, and then **** out the toxin of Heiyunsan with your mouth, but the person who sucked out the toxin of Heiyunsan must be punished The poison of Heiyunsan is poisoned to death; but who would be willing to do such stupid things of self-sacrifice, Your Majesty, would you? Hahaha"

After speaking, Concubine Zheng asked the Imperial Guards to **** them out of the Longevity Palace. And the last words she said to him made Emperor Wanli hesitate.
