Luoyang Brocade Chapter 374: Headmaster (1)
The sudden words of the emperor's grandson attracted everyone's attention.
Ling Jingshu was still neither humble nor arrogant. She was neither flattered nor nervous. She said happily: "I thank His Highness the Grand Sun for your kindness. It is too early to say this now. The most important thing now is the health of His Highness the Crown Prince. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the prince lying on the ground suddenly groaned softly.
To everyone's ears, this faint sound was undoubtedly the sound of nature.
The emperor's grandson's eyes lit up, and he held the prince's cold hand with trembling hands. His voice was full of excitement and ecstasy: "Father, wake up!"
The emperor was also full of surprise and looked at the prince impatiently.
Unfortunately, after the prince uttered this low groan, there was no sound again. The emperor immediately said to Wei Yan: "Mr. Wei, isn't the prince awake already? Why is there no movement again?"
Wei Yan knelt down, inspected carefully for a moment, and then said: "Reporting to the emperor, Wei Chen just used acupuncture to drain the poisonous blood of His Highness, and it should be effective. Wei Chen will remove all the golden needles for His Highness now, so that His Highness was carried to the bed to rest peacefully."
The emperor nodded in agreement without thinking.
Wei Yan quickly pulled out all the golden needles for the prince.
Two guards came forward to lift the prince. But he was stopped by the emperor's grandson: "You all get out of the way, I will carry your father in."
As he spoke, he carefully picked up the prince and walked steadily into the bedroom.
The storm is coming! He had to straighten his chest and face it!
……
Everything that happened next was a nightmare for those who witnessed what happened in the palace today!
The emperor was furious and struck without mercy.
Everyone in the main hall was detained and interrogated individually, and they were not released until it was determined that there were no problems. The chambermaids serving in the palace were tortured repeatedly, and inevitably suffered physical and physical torture. Nearly half died during the torture.
Those women who participated in the sword dance were even tortured. Two of them couldn't survive it, and finally cried out and revealed the person behind the scenes.
That female assassin was actually ordered by Concubine Li Shu in the palace!
After careful interrogation, the origin of the chamberlain who had died of poison was also found out. Before serving the emperor, this chamberlain once worked as an errand for King An.
When the emperor found out, he was so angry that he almost fainted on the spot!
This Concubine Li Shu has been with him for many years, and in terms of age and seniority, she has been with him longer than the deposed Empress Xu. The son she gave birth to, King An, was mediocre in temperament, lustful and lustful, and was not liked by him. Therefore, he sent King An to the feudal land early.
Over the years, he has shown little favor to Concubine Li Shu, but he has never treated her badly. She was given the status of a concubine, with fine clothes and food, wealth and honor. She also behaved honestly and calmly, and was very low-key.
After Queen Xu was deposed, he asked Concubine Li Shu and Concubine Wei Xian to jointly take charge of palace affairs. Li Shufei has always been humble and gentle, which is remarkable. When he came to the palace this time, he brought Concubine Wei Xian over and deliberately left Concubine Li Shu in the palace.
Who would have thought that Concubine Li Shu, who seemed to keep a low profile, would secretly plan such an assassination plan.
If Concubine Li Shu succeeds, both he and the prince will die today. The court will immediately descend into chaos. At that time, King An would have a legitimate reason to return to Beijing for the funeral. The young King Yan and the emperor's grandson may not be the opponents of King An's mother and son.
"Good! What a good Concubine Li Shu! What a good King An!"
The emperor gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words, his eyes were cold and stern, his face was ferocious, and he was full of horrifying murderous intent: "For the sake of the throne, you dare to assassinate me and even the prince! I really have a good vision, and there is such a heart around me. A poisonous woman like a poisonous scorpion gave birth to such a rebellious thing!"
But in just three days, the emperor's condition faded at a speed visible to the naked eye. The whole person has lost weight, and his whole body is full of hostility, which is frightening.
Concubine Wei Xian felt chills in her heart when she saw this, and she didn't even have the courage to comfort her.
In the past few days, everyone has been having a hard time. She, the virtuous concubine, is no exception.
After this incident, the emperor refused to trust anyone. Looking at the eyes of the people around you, there is always a third part of scrutiny and a third part of coldness, which makes people shudder.
After learning that Concubine Li Shu was the mastermind behind the assassination, the emperor was even more furious.
After a moment of silence, Concubine Wei Xian opened her mouth to ask tremblingly: "Your Majesty, it is not appropriate to stay in this palace any longer. It is time to return to the palace!"
The news that the emperor was assassinated in the palace had already spread back to the capital, causing an uproar. In the past few days, countless officials have rushed to the palace to pay their respects to the emperor.
With Concubine Li Shu's caution and keenness, she must have been on guard.
The emperor barely suppressed the anger in his heart and said coldly: "This is not necessary. King Yan is seriously injured and it is not appropriate to move at this time. The prince's condition is even worse. He has been in and out of coma. The remaining poison in his body has not been cleared and he cannot bear to drive. The work of a horse."
"I will stay in the palace and wait until the two of them are well before leaving back to Beijing!"
"As for Concubine Li Shu, I have ordered people to go back to the palace to 'bring' her here. She will be at the palace tonight at most."
What?
She **** accompanied the emperor and knew nothing about it.
Concubine Wei Xian was startled and raised her head reflexively, just in time to meet the emperor's murderous gaze.
Concubine Wei Xian felt a chill in her heart again, but she did not dare to show it on her face, and responded softly: "Your Majesty is wise!"
The emperor was immersed in uncontrollable anger and was eager to do something to vent his anger. Concubine Li Shu seems to be in danger.
……
Concubine Wei Xian returned to the palace with heavy steps.
Ling Jingshu and Xinyun came forward one by one. Looking at Concubine Wei Xian's solemn and ugly expression, Ling Jingshu's heart skipped a beat and she asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, have the masterminds behind the two assassins been found out?"
Concubine Wei Xian breathed out a long breath: "It's been found out. ~IndoMTL.com~ Ling Jingshu's heart tightened. In front of Xinyun, it was inconvenient to ask carefully, so she simply stopped talking.
Concubine Wei Xian was confused and wanted to discuss it with Ling Jingshu. Waving his hand, Xinyun led the maids to retreat. When there were only two people left in the room, Concubine Wei Xian quickly whispered: "I originally thought that the mastermind behind this assassination was King Yan. Unexpectedly, the emperor ordered people to torture him severely. The result of the torture is that they are Concubine Li Shu and Prince An, mother and son!"
What?
Ling Jingshu almost thought she heard wrong: "How could it be them?"
Obviously it was King Yan who secretly planned all this, how could it be King An and her son?
Where did I go wrong?
Concubine Wei Xian smiled bitterly and sighed: "When I heard this, I was even more shocked than you. However, this was the result of questioning under severe torture. The emperor was convinced that he had ordered someone to secretly Concubine Li Shu has captured her."(.)
