Zhao Qian looked blankly at one place, and muttered: "In this life... there will be no chance again..."
"Uncle Ming!" Zhao Yong tried to stop Wang Ming while hugging his wife, but he was too late. King Ming slammed his head against the pillar. He exerted all his strength, only to hear a "puff", and his stalwart body fell.
"Yu'er!" Empress Dowager Zhuang had been hit hard. She saw that His Royal Highness Ming had also gone. She couldn't accept it for a while, and she fainted.
When Empress Cao woke up again, she only felt that the smell in the whole room was very unpleasant, and the bed board was so hard that she felt pain all over her body. Her throat was uncomfortable, thirsty, and still very cold, struggling to sit up, trying to speak, but found that she could not make a sound at all, and she woke up all of a sudden.
This is a very dilapidated house, with spider webs everywhere, and the window paper on the windows has many holes in it, and it can't stop the cold wind at all. The north was whispering, and Empress Cao was wearing brown linen clothes, and she felt numb from the cold. The little palace lady who was squatting on the side saw it, and hurriedly came over and said: "Manny, are you awake?"
"I..." Empress Cao wanted to ask what was wrong, but couldn't say a word.
The girl said: "Your Majesty, your majesty punished you to come here. Mother Ming was beaten to death. The servants of Zhengyang Palace before us were also dead, wounded... She didn't know the servants and servants. I haven't served the empress up close before. It was the empress dowager who pityed the empress, who persuaded your majesty to send a servant to serve you?"
"I..." Empress Cao tried to clear her throat, but she still couldn't make a sound.
The maid said: "Mother, don't bother. Your majesty has fed you the medicine from Huang Taiyi of the Supreme Medical Department. You will never be able to speak anymore in your life."
Empress Cao couldn't believe it, she kept holding on to the maidservant, but she couldn't say a word.
"Is the empress want to ask what happened?" The maid asked, but when he saw Empress Cao nodding her head repeatedly, she said, "When Concubine Xu Shu and Concubine Hao were going out for a breather, I saw Princess Ming's empress kneeling on your side. Before, I seem to be begging you. I also saw you beat Concubine Ming with my own eyes. Later, Concubine Ming was poisoned, but the poison was hidden in your body. Your Majesty said that the evidence is solid, so he immediately convicted you and beat you into it. Cold Palace is here."
Empress Cao couldn't believe it, she obviously didn't do anything, it was obviously not what she did. Your majesty knows, your majesty should know, but why treat her like this
The queen was found guilty and was beaten into the cold palace. The prince knelt outside the palace of Qinzheng all night, but his majesty never summoned him.
Later, the princess and the two Liangdi came over and persuaded the prince to go back. Zhao Ting knelt outside the Palace of Qinzheng all night. He was cold and numb. After returning to the East Palace, he fainted. Woke up again, it was the morning of the second day of the Lunar New Year. The princess and the two concubines were waiting at the bedside. Seeing that the prince was awake, she breathed a sigh of relief.
The princess brought the medicine and handed it to Zhao Ting: "His Royal Highness, the imperial physician said that your body has caught the cold. Drink this ginger soup to protect you from the cold."
Zhao Ting’s eyes stopped for a moment on the face of the princess, took the bowl, drank the ginger soup, and said: "You all go out." But seeing the three people quietly getting up and wanting to leave, Zhao Ting summoned Wang Clan. "Wang Liangdi, you stay."
"Yes, Your Highness." Wang Liangdi answered and stood quietly aside.
After the princess and Xuan Liangdi left, Zhao Ting patted the bed and said, "Sit down." Then he said, "Do you know why Gu kept you down?"
Wang Liangdi said: "Now the mother's queen is in trouble, and his concubine is left behind. He wants to discuss with the concubine how to save the mother from the predicament."
Zhao Ting's eyebrows were tightly locked, and his voice was cold: "Do you think that the death of Princess Ming is really related to the mother's queen?"
Wang Liangdi looked up at his husband, then quickly lowered his eyes, shook his head lightly and said, "The concubine does not believe it. Even if the mother hates the princess Ming, she will not poison her to death. The concubine thinks that all of this is afraid of it. Someone made the game. But the mother queen was too careless and caught the trap of others."
"You can see it too..." Zhao Ting clenched his fists tightly, his originally moist eyes gradually stained with a layer of anger, "It's a pity that the father pretended not to see it. The second child's move is really ruthless. You Jue, he should know in his heart that the emperor father’s feelings for the princess Ming, if princess Ming dies, the emperor father will never remain indifferent."
Wang Liangdi's eyebrows gradually frowned, and he only whispered: "That also means that the princess Ming is willing to help the king, but I don't know why the princess Ming is willing to sacrifice her own life as a price." After a short pause, he said, "His Royal Highness, This time I want to rescue the queen in a hurry, I'm afraid it won't work. But if there is no support from the queen in the palace, our Eastern Palace will become more and more vulnerable. What will your Highness do?"
Zhao Ting tried his best to hold back the resentment in his heart. He lowered his eyes slightly and thought about half of the salary, and said: "I remember that Princess Jin has a bastard sister who is now being held in the prison of the Ministry of Justice. I heard the noble book from the Ministry of Justice last time. Lady Lin Er was extremely dishonest in the prison of the Ministry of Justice. She kept arguing about seeing Gu, saying that there was important news to tell Gu. At that time, Gu was only a mad woman. At this time, she wanted to listen to her. What's the news?"
Wang Liangdi said: "This second lady Lin and the Princess Jin have a deep hatred. Since I want to send news to my Royal Highness, I want to come with news that is unfavorable to Prince Jin's Mansion."
"I know it alone." Zhao Ting answered indifferently.
