The death of the sixth prince was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the emperor!
He died very strangely.
At that time, many people cast their wish stones by the moat. Above the imperial city, the emperor also arrived with the queen, the concubine, and the princes and princesses.
Dressed in solemn white clothes, they stood on the city wall and waved to the people.
Across a river, although the common people could not see the faces of the nobles, the imperial army was stationed on the majestic imperial city, and the deterrent force was still very strong.
Everyone hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed loudly. The mighty thousands of people saluted at the same time, making Emperor Longyan very happy, looking at Gong Wei and nodding.
Soon, the auspicious time came. After the sacrificial officer finished singing the sacrificial song, the old emperor walked out first under the lights, then lowered his head to pray, and threw the wish stone into the river.
When he did this, the people on the other side of the moat also threw out wish stones in an attempt to touch the emperor's dragon spirit!
Then came the queen, the concubine, and then the prince...
The second prince is the first.
Although the old emperor found out that many Chang Qiye had deceived himself, and was very angry, after a thorough investigation, it was confirmed that the death of Chang Qiye and Chang Qifeng had nothing to do with it.
So the old emperor still let him come, and according to the order of elders and children, let him be the first among the princes to cast the wish stone.
At this time, Chang Qiyu had already led troops to pick up "Xie Linlang", so naturally he had no time to participate in this custom, and the fifth prince, Chang Qiyin, was still under house arrest.
So after Chang Qiye, there is the sixth prince Chang Qi Ruofeng.
Chang Qi Ruofeng, who had lost his goddess and lost his soul and had to be called ill, has regained his spirits in recent days, but he looked a little excited.
Only a few people know that Chang Qiye sent Chang Qi Ruofeng a painting...
During this period of silence, Chang Qiye did not do anything. When he saw that Chang Qi Ruofeng had lost his goddess and lost his soul, he went to find an official.
That official was also the one who attended the Full Moon Banquet at his mansion, and was extremely good at painting.
So he asked him to draw the first beauty, and said that such a beauty cannot be left without anything.
The official remembered the amazing glimpse he had in the yard, and readily agreed, and then used 100% of his skill to describe the appearance of Xie Linlang wearing a long gold and red dress at that time.
Although the official couldn't fully show Xie Linlang's beauty, even so, he was already shocked.
Then Chang Qiye took this painting and handed it over to Chang Qi Ruofeng in the name of his brother's concern. When Chang Qi Ruofeng saw it, he said that this was the goddess in his dream, and was so excited.
But who knows, it's just such an inconspicuous move, but there is a hidden danger of death.
When Chang Qi Ruofeng cast the wish stone, everything was normal, but when he cast the wish stone, not only did he not give way to the seventh prince, but he moved forward step by step.
Everyone didn't know why, they just heard him shouting "Goddess don't go", and then he walked to the edge of the imperial city step by step and jumped straight down!
This scene happened so fast that before the palace servants on the side came back to their senses, he jumped off and fell into the river with a "pop"!
The people on the other side of the river were stunned when they committed suicide in front of everyone! At the same time, the heart-piercing cry of the sixth prince and the concubine came from the city wall, and everyone knew that a big man might have fallen!
Soon, some guards opened the city gate and jumped into the water to save the person, but when they picked up the person, the person was already dead.
The people in the palace hurriedly left for fear of being implicated, but the people in the palace took the body of the sixth prince back and let the imperial doctor see it.
Naturally, the imperial doctor couldn't see the good or the bad, everyone was dead, and if he wanted to see something strange, he could only ask him to do it.
The biological mother of the sixth prince could not restrain herself from crying, because Chang Qi Ruofeng jumped off by herself, she couldn't even rashly say that someone was murdered!
The other concubines and concubines naturally followed, and the whole room was suddenly immersed in whimpering, causing the old emperor's head to ache for a while, and the whole person instantly aged.
It's been an eventful year this year...
First, he was defeated by the Qin State, and the land was ceded to pay indemnity. Then the social pressure within the Ze State also increased day by day, and then... His fourth emperor died, and the first emperor died before the murderer was caught.
Before he could come back to his senses, right now... his Sixth Emperor also "suicide"!
Within a month, he had three sons dead!
This made him feel a huge crisis!
Someone wants his son's life, someone wants his life!
The first thing he suspected was Chang Qiyu!
No matter how upright Chang Qiyu is, but now that the Sixth Emperor's son is dead, the biggest beneficiary seems to be him.
But thinking about what Chang Qiyu said about the doubts about Chang Qiyin, he was a little uncertain.
Is this a rhetoric that Chang Qiyu deliberately diverted his attention, or is he being played with by his son from beginning to end
No no no... Yin'er is just a crippled prince, how could he be
This is impossible! This must be a conspiracy, maybe it is Da Qin's conspiracy!
right! Da Qin's conspiracy!
Didn't the imperial scholar from Daqin come today? She didn't come early or late, but she came at this time, and as soon as she came, his sixth emperor died...
And that Qin Emperor, he said why the Great Qin Emperor came to celebrate his birthday in person, he must be haunted by the previous Great Qin battle, so he deliberately came to retaliate against him!
It could also be the lords of the middle class... They are aware of his layout and want to use this method to warn him!
Or there is a killer in that group of envoys from other countries! They were worried that Zeguo would attack them, so they came to kill his son and create civil unrest...
The more the old emperor thought about it, the more he collapsed, and the more he thought about it, the more he could not think of a clue! His eyes were red, but not a single tear was shed.
At this time, someone from the palace hesitated and reported in a low voice.
"Your Majesty, an envoy has sent someone here... They heard about the sixth prince... I want to ask Your Majesty, do you still want to hold a birthday banquet?"
Usually encountering this kind of thing before the birthday banquet, out of taboo, many people will definitely not do it again. If the emperor wants to go to mourning, then their envoys can't be offended by their clothes tomorrow.
Unexpectedly, the old emperor stared at him gloomily when he heard the words.
"Everything is going on as usual. The sixth prince has gone to worship the sea god. This is a happy event! In any case, no one will want to see Zeguo's jokes! The widow not only has to do it, but also a big deal! You go and tell them, go now!"
"Yes! Yes!" The palace servant hurriedly fled and passed on the words.
And the sixth prince, like the eldest prince, was dragged back in a low-key manner, and he had to be buried within three days, and could not conflict with the birthday banquet seven days later.
The next day, the emperor received the new envoy and "Xie Linlang" from Qin. He looked the same as usual, but he wore a white belt around his waist to express his condolences.
