"What are you doing, empress?" Eunuch Le, who was supposed to be guarding outside the palace, appeared behind the successor for some reason. He didn't wait for the successor to answer, and immediately opened his voice and shouted, "Come here! Not good!" It's gone! The empress has killed the king!"
Almost as soon as the words were spoken, the forbidden army entered the room and surrounded the successors.
Then she was so frightened that she turned her head to look at Eunuch Le and pretended to be calm: "Eunuch is talking nonsense! I just came to see the emperor."
When she turned her head to look at Emperor Chong Jin again, she found a pair of dark eyes staring at her. Emperor Chongjin did not know when he woke up, and was about to sit up, but Eunuch Le rushed forward to help him.
"Bring the Queen back to Ganquan Palace, and hunt down King Zhao." Emperor Chongjin tightly held the pill that was given to him later in his hand. These words seemed to have exhausted all his energy. He also coughed violently uncontrollably.
Eunuch Le hurriedly went over to give Emperor Chongjin his back, seeing that his cough was gradually weakening, he poured him another cup of tea and served him: "Your Majesty, lie down for a while."
"No," Emperor Chongjin pushed Eunuch Le away and stumbled off the dragon bed, "serving you with pen and ink."
As early as when Uncle Yang Guo entered Ganquan Palace, Eunuch Le told Emperor Chongjin everything. Emperor Chongjin was dubious and planned to go to Ganquan Palace, but was stopped by Eunuch Le.
Eunuch Le said to Emperor Chongjin that there will be some movement over there in a while, and she will definitely come to murder him. Emperor Chongjin didn't believe it, but he was really unhappy, so he followed Eunuch Le's advice and lay down on the dragon bed to pretend Sleep, so he knows every move of the following.
After a night of chaos, the sun rose as usual the next day.
Emperor Chongjin, who had not ascended to the court for a long time, went to the court, but King Zhao, who had been handling the court affairs, was nowhere to be seen. The ministers were discussing in low voices.
As soon as Emperor Chongjin came to court, he issued four imperial decrees to thoroughly investigate the disappearance of the prince and the case of Jing Rulan. The third imperial decree was to abolish the successors, and the last imperial decree was to hunt down King Zhao.
Some ministers who didn't know the truth looked at each other and talked a lot. Emperor Chongjin was in low spirits, so he planned to disperse the court. He took a deep look at Yan Shi who was standing below: "Jingchu, come to find me after the court."
After coming down to court, Yan Shi went to the study to find Emperor Chongjin.
Emperor Chongjin asked him to sit down, and for a moment the father and son didn't know what to say. After a long while, Emperor Chongjin said: "Jingchu, what happened to your mother..."
"Thank you, father and emperor, for finding out the truth for your mother." Yan Shi stood up from his chair, and saluted Emperor Chongjin, with a hint of emotion in his words.
Seeing his strange appearance, Emperor Chongjin felt a little sad, and he sighed: "Jingchu, you used to be my favorite son." Yes, that was just in the past. When Empress Wei was still alive, Emperor Chongjin showed great favor to Yan Shi. But when the little prince found out that he was murdered by the guard, all the favors disappeared. Emperor Chongjin hated Empress Wei for being too greedy to tolerate his other children, and even angered Yan Shi.
Yan Shi didn't speak, and Emperor Chongjin sighed: "I know that I owe you a lot these years. But I'm afraid I can't make up for you, with my body. I have a hunch... even if there is no poison, I won't." How many days has it been?" Eunuch Le also told all about King Zhao's poisoning.
"In the future, you will find a good family for Huojia," Emperor Chongjin said, as if confessing his last words, "This great abyss is all up to you."
Yan Shi also felt a little uncomfortable, but he still didn't speak.
"After you ascend the throne, you will take the grandson of Taifu Zhou as your concubine, and..."
"I will never have anyone else in this life." Yan Shi interrupted Emperor Chong Jin's unfinished words.
"You..." Emperor Chongjin frowned slightly, "The emperor can marry a concubine and have children, but he can still be a queen."
"My son knows." Yan Shi said firmly, "but my son will only have him in this life."
"Jingchu, you are the one who wants to be the emperor, and you have to take care of the overall situation." Emperor Chongjin rarely got angry, but persuaded him kindly, "He is a man and cannot have children. Who do you want to pass the throne to in the future?"
"
Erchen has children. "Yan Shi replied.
"You mean your adopted son?" Emperor Chongjin couldn't believe it. Could the throne be passed on to someone who has no blood relationship with the royal family
"He is not my son's adopted son, he is my son's own." Yan Yi said this fact slowly.
"Which woman did you have a baby with?" Emperor Chongjin was a little angry at first, but now that the throne can only be passed on to Yan Shi, he must have given birth.
"It was born between Erchen and Ming Ting." Knowing that Emperor Chongjin would be wrong, Yan Shi put his hands on his lower abdomen, "He came out of Erchen's stomach."
"What did you say?" Emperor Chong Jin thought he was sick and confused, and misheard. This is obviously a son, and he had hugged him when he was a child, and his figure did not look like a woman.
"I have taken medicine that can conceive a man." Yan Shi concealed the matter of Yuanyang fruit, "This medicine was successfully developed by a doctor in Erchen's mansion."
"Is there really such a medicine?" Emperor Chongjin was a little unconvinced.
"Of course it's true. If the baby wasn't born by Erchen, Erchen could have agreed to Father's proposal to marry a concubine first, and then make plans later." Mentioning the baby, Yan Shi's face showed tenderness, "Erchen Why bother to tell the truth?"
Emperor Chongjin believed a little: "Then, can I see him?" He asked a little cautiously.
Yan Shi nodded in agreement, Emperor Chongjin's spirit was weak, and he felt a little uncomfortable after talking for a while, so he asked Yan Shi to back down.
After Yan Shi returned to the palace, he told all about today's events, and asked Hua Ling to carry the baby into the palace, and Qu Liushang went with him.
In the palace, Emperor Chongjin was still asleep, Hua Ling waited for a while before he woke up.
Knowing that the baby had arrived, Emperor Chong Jin half leaned on the bed, Hua Ling saluted and showed him the baby.
If it is said that Emperor Chongjin had doubts about the baby's life experience before, but after seeing the baby, all doubts were dispelled. There is no other reason, the baby looks too much like Yan Shi when he was a child.
Maybe it's because of the blood relationship, or maybe it's because too many things happened in the past two days, Emperor Chongjin's eye circles turned slightly red.
After he saw the baby, Qu Liushang gave him another pulse.
The poison in his body is easy to detox, but the original body has a condition again, and coupled with the conflict with the poison, if the poison is detoxified, the body will also be ruined.
Qu Liushang prescribed some medicines to Eunuch Le, and asked him to cook them on time for Emperor Chongjin to take.
After Hua Ling returned to the palace, it was already dark.
The case between Weihou and Jing Rulan has solid evidence and is easy to hear. Within two days, everything has been tried. More than ten years ago, Jing Rulan's family was framed by Uncle Yang Guo, and all their families were executed. Now, the Yang family wants to pay with blood.
Because of the successors, the Yang family has dominated Dayuan for many years, and the common people have suffered greatly from it. Seeing that they are finished, they all clap their hands and cheer. However, there are also many people who secretly say that Emperor Chongjin was tyrannical, and in just over ten years, he ransacked and beheaded three families.
When the imperial decree came out, Jiang Qingyue looked at the sky and shed tears.
Qu Liushang held an oil-paper umbrella to shade Jiang Qingyue from the sun: "Young Master Qingyue, let's go inside to dry out."
Jiang Qingyue entered the room together with him, he did not intend to resume Jing Xing's identity. Jing Xing died more than ten years ago, he was Jiang Qingyue before, and he will always be Jiang Qingyue.
Later, after hearing that Yang's family was ransacked and beheaded, he also hanged himself in Ganquan Palace.
Empress Wei was cleared of her grievances, and Emperor Chongjin announced it to the world, and granted her a bunch of posthumous titles.
Everything was going in a good direction, but King Zhao ran away, and it was said that all the people who went to arrest him were poisoned.
Emperor Chongjin's illness became more and more serious, and after all these matters were resolved, he issued another imperial decree to make Yan Shi the crown prince.
More than a month later, when the autumn wind was rising, Emperor Chongjin passed away.
The whole country mourned, and the whole city was white.
