The death of the prince made the atmosphere in the hall even more oppressive, and even King Wei, who was secretly delighted, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, not daring to reveal any clues. On the contrary, from time to time, he looked at the palace where the emperor was, his eyes were worried, and he looked like filial piety.
Whether others have noticed King Wei's behavior is unknown for the time being, but Qi Yang and Lu Qipei have no time to pay attention to him. The former finally couldn't help but let out a mournful sound because of the death of the prince, and cried uncontrollably. The latter's mind was naturally all on his sweetheart, not to mention an innocuous King Wei, even in a chaotic situation, he would not be more in the mood to pay attention to it.
Qi Yang cried in the middle of the night, and his eyes were red and swollen until dawn.
Lu Qipei was so distressed that he couldn't persuade him, so he had to hug her and let her vent in his arms. Until Qi Yang was tired from crying and fell asleep in her arms without realizing it, he still felt pity in his heart.
One night has passed, and the emperor has not woken up yet, but he can't ignore what happened last night. Especially the fire after the explosion of Chaoyang Tower last night happened almost in the eyes of the whole city. At that time, everyone was so frightened that they fled in all directions, trampling to death and injuring nearly a hundred people.
The prime minister finally couldn't wait until it was almost dawn, and hurried out of the palace to convene the ministers, briefly explained what happened last night, then closed the nine gates, and asked Jing Zhaoyin to come forward to appease the hearts of the people.
There are a lot of messes inside and outside the palace. Lu Qipei can't control it and doesn't want to control it, but Dali Siqing came at noon - he was hurriedly summoned into the palace by Qi Yang after closing the palace gate last night, in order to investigate Chaoyang Tower. In one case, I also helped Commander Yulin to investigate the palace. As for trust? He is the emperor's party, and the emperor trusts him. At this time, he doesn't need to doubt his loyalty.
Only then did Lu Qipei wake up Qi Yang and make her and everyone in the hall listen to the report of the Dali Si Qing.
The night's waiting made everyone a little tired. Qi Yang cried and fell asleep, but it was understandable, but the others were guarding the emperor, but they didn't dare to sleep. At this time, when they heard the results of Dali Siqing's investigation, they all cheered up and listened.
When the prince passed away, King Wei felt that the mountain that had been pressing on his head had finally been moved away. As if doing his part, he came forward and asked: "The father was assassinated, what is the result of the investigation of Dali Temple, hurry up and tell me!"
Dali Siqing glanced at him, but didn't care about King Wei's attitude, and reported to the crowd: "Last night, Your Majesty and the Prince went upstairs to light the lights. Half an hour before they went upstairs, Yulin went upstairs for the last inspection, but he didn't find anything at that time. Fire and medicine. After that, Chaoyang Tower will be guarded by heavy soldiers, so no one can do anything under the eyes of the public…”
When King Wei heard this, he interrupted dissatisfiedly: "Siqing's meaning, isn't that □□ still conjured out of thin air? Don't tell this king that there is no fire, medicine, explosion and fire on Chaoyang Tower. It's all damnation!"
When he said these words, the hall became silent for a moment, and the atmosphere became weird.
Qi Yang once again saw the stupidity of King Wei. He opened his mouth to say something, only to find that his throat was dry and painful after crying for too long. It was Lu Qipei who saw the opportunity and handed the warm water to her, and spoke for her: "His Royal Highness King Wei has been thinking too much. I think Lord Siqing means that there are thieves in the Yulin who went upstairs to check. That assassin must have been helped by someone to hide in the palace."
Dali Siqing was Lu Qipei's immediate boss. The two were human-borne colleagues and knew each other very well. What's more, people with brains know that Dali Siqing will have something to say in the future, and only King Wei will interrupt him and talk about God's condemnation.
Sure enough, Dali Siqing nodded in agreement, King Wei was a little embarrassed for a while, and his eyes on Lu Qipei became a little colder.
Lu Qipei ignored him, and just listened to Dali Siqing's explanation of what he found - he only spent one night, but what he found was beyond everyone's imagination. From Yulin to the servants, from the general to the harem, everyone didn't know how he checked, and nearly a hundred people were found overnight. Not everyone participated in the assassination, but there is no doubt that he followed the clues and unearthed a hidden force.
King Wei didn't speak this time, so quiet that he seemed to have changed back to a quail again. The reason, of course, was that he was frightened, not only because there was such a power lurking in the palace, but also because there were palace people involved in his mother-in-law's palace.
At this sensitive moment, King Wei knew that the case could not be touched even if he had no brains, and a little of it was enough to kill him!
After Dali Siqing finished speaking about the case, the already repressed palace was filled with deadly silence. After a long time, Qi Yang opened his mouth, his voice slightly hoarse: "There must be a mastermind behind such a force, please ask Si Qing to continue the investigation."
She spoke lightly, and Dali Si Qing also agreed, but Qi Yang could feel Lu Qipei's hand tightening slightly.
In the evening, the emperor who had been in a coma for a day and a night finally woke up.
Water and fire are ruthless. Although the crown prince who exploded in Chaoyang Tower was protecting himself, the subsequent fire still caused many burns on his body. The imperial doctor tried his best to treat him, but when he woke up, the emperor still felt severe pain.
It was precisely because of this severe pain that the emperor, who had been in a coma for a long time, quickly regained his thoughts. He looked at the imperial doctor who rushed up and asked, "Where is the prince, is the prince okay?"
The emperor, who had been in a coma for a long time, had a low, hoarse and weak voice, and obviously lost his usual power, but because of this question, the imperial doctor's scalp tightened. The imperial doctor bowed his head and did not dare to answer, and the emperor was not stupid. When he saw him like this, he knew most of it in his heart. The light that had just condensed in his eyes dimmed for the most part, and a turbid tear slipped from the corner of his eye and rolled into the pillow under the pillow.
The people waiting outside the hall quickly got the news, and a group of people rushed in. King Wei ran at the front to show his filial piety, and he just shouted "Father Emperor" loudly, but someone covered his mouth.
Obviously, the emperor at this moment needs to rest, not to mention that he is mourning the death of the prince.
In the end, Qi Yang came to the front. She wanted to grab the emperor's hand, but when she saw the bandage on his hand, she didn't know what to do. He had to lie down in front of his sick bed and endure the cry: "Father, you have to get well soon."
The emperor listened to his daughter's words and sighed in his heart - he was poisoned before passing by, and his body was not as good as before. When he took the prince up the building to watch the lanterns, he even had the idea of a Zen position in his heart. Now that he has gone through so many times, he is overjoyed and grieved by the trauma to his body. He can feel that he is already at the end of the fight without the imperial doctor's diagnosis and treatment. How can he get better
Thinking of the crown prince, the emperor's heart grieved even more deeply, and he only wished that he would not be so filial. But it was too late to say anything now, so he could only endure his grief and ask, "How is the situation now?"
After the Chaoyang Tower accident, Qi Yang and Lu Qipei were the first to dare to enter the palace, and she arranged many things after that. Therefore, Qi Yang still reported this matter, and only at the end did he say in a trembling voice: "Father, the emperor's brother passed away, and I also ask the father to mourn."
In the end, I still heard such an ending, even if the emperor was ninety percent sure in his heart, he couldn't help but feel sad when he heard it. His throat rolled twice, and suddenly he tilted his head and spat out blood with a "pop", and he was shocked to turn around.
The imperial doctor hurried forward to diagnose and administer acupuncture, Qi Yang was pushed behind, and King Wei pulled her clothes and complained that she vomited blood from the emperor's anger.
Lu Qipei naturally stepped forward to stop it. Wei Wang Zheng was not good at fighting with Qi Yang, and when he saw the concubine coming forward, he naturally turned his head and threw his fist at Lu Qipei. As a result, Lu Qipei dodged, and King Wei became more annoyed after staggering.
Rao is the emperor who is seriously injured and weak, and he has a panoramic view of this riot in front of the hospital bed.
The timing is actually very delicate. The emperor knew that the death of the prince was a source of grief, and he felt unhappy when he saw the farce in front of him. At the same time, because of the death of the crown prince and his serious injury, the emperor had to reconsider the issue of the heir. It is true that the country is old, but he has just given birth to two distractions, and then look at the irritable and mindless king of Wei. How can such a person be trusted
At this moment, King Wei didn't know that because of his impulsive impulse and the outbreak of jealousy that he had suppressed for Qi Yang for many years, the pie that might have fallen on his head flew away like this.
The emperor was most discouraged, closed his eyes and began to think about the other sons. However, the only one who survived was King Wei, and he didn't look down on him. The other sons who had committed crimes early on and were demoted and left a bad impression in his heart naturally looked down on him even more.
After thinking about it, I found that there was no successor, and the emperor almost vomited blood again under the fluctuating mood.
The imperial doctor was so frightened that his needle-piercing hands were shaking, but fortunately the emperor also understood the current situation, and he must not just die like this. So he reluctantly suppressed the surging qi and blood, and suddenly asked, "Where's Zhang Jian?"
Zhang Jian died. He blocked the sword for the emperor last night and died in front of the emperor.
But Zhang Jian can't be compared with the prince. Since the emperor asked, someone whispered: "Eunuch Zhang rescued the car yesterday, but unfortunately died, His Royal Highness Qi Yang has ordered him to be buried."
When the emperor heard this, he couldn't help feeling sad. Zhang Jian is an old man who has been with him for decades. He knows the Sacred Heart well, and the emperor also trusts him quite a bit. There are some things that the prince doesn't know, Zhang Jian knows, some people the emperor didn't give to the prince, but Zhang Jian can intervene.
But now that the prince has passed away, the kings are unreliable, and the emperor will inevitably think about his eldest grandson after thinking about it.
The eldest grandson was young, and without his father's guidance and support, the emperor himself could not last long. In terms of state affairs and government, he can still be entrusted to important ministers to assist him, but the palace wants to hand it over to Zhang Jian, but who knows that Zhang Jian is gone!
Right now, this situation is really messed up into a pot of porridge, and the emperor can't take much care of it anymore.
After a while, the imperial doctor finished administering the needle, and the emperor felt that the sullen breath in his chest finally dissipated. He opened his eyes again, his voice was a little louder than before, but he said: "Qi Yang, announce the ministers to enter the palace on my behalf."
Qi Yang was impatiently being entangled by King Wei, and immediately responded when he heard the words.
The King of Wei remained in the hall, and understood that the emperor summoned the ministers at this time to explain the funeral. He should have been excited, but he vaguely felt that something was wrong, and he was inexplicably panicked.
