The next day, Taishi Zhao came to the imperial study and pleaded guilty to the emperor.

He was dressed in a purged official uniform, with a serious expression and heartbroken.

"Your Majesty, I am guilty! I am guilty!" Taishi Zhao knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly: "I am busy with official duties and lack of discipline for my family. I never thought that my wife would commit such serious crimes as slandering the queen! I have no face to face the king. I deserve it." Doom."

"What does the matter of the harem have to do with you, a former important minister?" The emperor sighed and said, "Dan Lan and Shan Hui are direct sisters. They are infatuated with ghosts for a while, so you don't have to blame yourself too much."

"Yes, I will write a letter of divorce soon to show my loyalty to Your Majesty and the Empress." Zhao Taishi said: "Shanhui admired His Majesty too much, and that's why she became jealous and made a big mistake. Please punish me severely. , to stop the filth of the harem."

The emperor just sighed and didn't speak.

Taishi Zhao raised his eyes and saw His Royal Highness sitting behind the desk in front of the window of the imperial study, assisting the emperor to review the memorial.

"His Royal Highness, Wan An, I am very happy to hear that His Royal Highness has recovered." Grand Master Zhao rushed to congratulate: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness is smart and sharp. He has just recovered from illness, and he will be able to come to the Imperial Study to assist His Majesty!"

"Grand Master, don't flatter me." The emperor showed a smile: "My incompetent son, today is the first time I have come here to help me with something. It is rare to get up early."

Taishi Zhao observed the prince carefully, and soon found out that something was wrong.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always liked to wear black robes, even the inner robes are all black. He often hears his personal attendants complain that they are all black and can't be distinguished, not even a plain colored belt! Today, for some unknown reason, on the surface she was still wearing a black robe, but inside, she was wearing a white lining! The material of the white lining is exquisite and luxurious, it looks like Ningzhou silk, and more importantly, the white lining is a little unfit, not like the crown prince's own.

At this time, Eunuch An brought tea, the prince put down his pen, and leaned over to pick up the teacup. This action revealed the mystery in the collar—there seemed to be a faint red mark in the collar.

All the signs are relatively subtle, and only people like Taishi Zhao with sharp eyes can detect them.

"Your Majesty's imperial study room is getting more and more lively." Seeing that the emperor was in a good mood, Grand Master Zhao joked.

"That's right, just before Grand Master Zhao came, Xu Zhaorong and other ladies came to greet His Majesty, and sent a lot of snack boxes." Eunuch An laughed and said: "The ladies all praised His Highness for being more upright and prudent."

Seeing that the emperor had no doubts about him, Zhao Taishi became more at ease in his heart, and bowed down after saying what he had to say. On the way back, I was thinking about the strange attire of the prince just now.

Murong Nan returned to Yuanheng Palace and threw a white undershirt to Li Yuebai.

"This is the one that His Royal Highness is wearing in the imperial study today?" Li Yuebai grabbed the clothes and looked left and right in his hands: "No! This is my clothes! Why are you wearing my clothes?"

"Who said this is yours?" Murong Nan raised his eyebrows, pretending not to admit it: "This is mine."

"Okay, okay, what's yours is yours." Li Yuebai was helpless, in fact, he didn't recognize Yun Weizhi's white clothes, they all looked the same, as long as they were white clothes, they must belong to Yun Weizhi .

"That's what you said." Murong Nan smiled: "Then I will wear it tomorrow."

Make an inch of it, brat!

"Speaking of which, Your Royal Highness." Thinking of what this brat did, Li Yuebai couldn't help but deeply doubt whether his illness was real: "I heard from Grandma Sun today that you have been alive and kicking like an ant since you were young." Like a grasshopper."

"Grasshopper?" Murong Nan frowned. What kind of metaphor is this? It's too ugly.

"My brother, I can't help but fall into deep thinking." Li Yuebai thought: "Why did you suddenly get sick a while ago, and you were so sick that you were dying? How is this possible?"

"How is it impossible?"

"Did you pretend to be sick on purpose to trick me into going to Beijing?" Li Yuebai's eyes were burning brightly: "Besides, last time, the little eunuch brought you medicine, but you didn't drink it."

"Brother Yun, don't think about it." Murong Nan shrugged, "If I'm pretending to be sick, can I hide it from you?"

Indeed, judging from his coma condition on the first day, it didn't seem real.

"Brother would rather you pretend that you are not sick." Li Yuebai sighed.

"Yes." Murong Nan took another step forward, pointing to his heart: "Here."

"Heart disease?" Li Yuebai was even more helpless: "Heart disease still needs heart medicine, you are simply admitting it, cliché."

"It's a real heart disease." Murong Nan said: "When I was young, a famous folk doctor came to check my pulse and said that I had a blood tumor in my heart."

"Hematoma..." Li Yuebai was dubious.

Indeed, people with blood tumors are often accompanied by birthmarks, and there is no doubt that there is a birthmark in the corner of Murong Nan's eye.

At night, Taishi Zhao came to Huixinyuan again.

"Your Majesty, I have something that I don't understand." Grand Master Zhao frowned, thinking about what he saw today: "I saw the prince in the imperial study today, and the prince was wearing white clothes, which seemed to be silk from Ningzhou..."

Shan Hui was stunned for a moment, then clapped her hands and laughed lightly: "Master, you have made a great contribution this time!"

"how do I say this?"

"Master Yun Yue is from Ningzhou! I like to wear white clothes most!" Shan Hui paused, her eyes revealing ecstasy.

"That is to say, the crown prince is wearing the clothes of Master Yun Yue." Grand Master Zhao was also shocked: "This matter is no small matter!"

According to the customs of the Duan Dynasty royal family, the Murong family, close-fitting clothes must never be exchanged for wearing. As long as they are exchanged, it means that there is a skin-to-skin relationship.

"Not only the clothes, but also the prince's skin around the collar, there is a red mark, the color is deep, and it is impossible to get rid of it within a few days." Grand Master Zhao added.

"After all, the prince is young. He thought that the palace has fallen, so he can sit back and relax, so far!" Shan Hui sneered: "Tomorrow, there will be a good show!"

the second day.

The originally deserted Huixinyuan suddenly became very lively.

The emperor brought a group of followers and officials from Dali Temple to Huixin Yuan in a mighty way.

The room in the Huixin Courtyard was small and couldn't let so many people in, so they simply placed dragon chairs in the courtyard and interrogated them in the courtyard.

"Shan Shu, if you have the intention of repenting, you can tell the whole story of how you framed the queen, so as to reduce the crime." Eunuch An comforted him.

Shan Hui was dressed in plain clothes, she was so pitiful, she had been crying until she was crying, and said repeatedly: "Your Majesty, this concubine is guilty, and this concubine was delusional for a while, and deserves death."

Shan Hui also spoke sincerely about how she respected and loved the emperor for a long time, which made people burst into tears.

"The guilty concubine has always been in awe of the empress. The reason why she made such a big mistake this time is not because she disrespected the empress, but because she was too respectful before. She felt that the empress was not as respectable as before, so she hated it..."

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince could have become a hero of the generation, but it's a pity... the concubine was too anxious in her eyes, and this made a big mistake..."

"What's the pity?" The emperor hurriedly asked after hearing her flickering words.

"Your Majesty, the guilty concubine is about to die, so I have to tell the truth." Shan Hui settled down, raised her eyes, straightened her waist, looked directly at the emperor, and said word by word: "The guilty concubine deserves a thousand crimes for framing the queen." death, but the sinful concubine did this for the sake of the prince!"

"That's strange. How could you become a prince if you framed the queen?" Eunuch An was puzzled.

"Even though the empress is wise, she made mistakes in disciplining the prince." Shan Hui said.

"Presumptuous! How can it be your turn to intervene when the queen disciplines the prince?" the emperor said angrily.

"The guilty concubine is meddling in other people's business, but the guilty concubine really has good intentions, and I can't bear to see the prince make mistakes." Shan Hui said: "The prince did not hesitate to harm his own body for personal reasons! The queen also indulges more, the guilty concubine is really I can't bear to... "

As soon as they heard the word "gui style", everyone became serious.

Everyone knows that His Royal Highness was seriously ill some time ago and almost died! This is a big deal.

"Shanhui, speak clearly!" the emperor roared angrily.

"As far as the guilty concubine knows, His Royal Highness is not sick at all! He poisoned himself!" Shan Hui paused every word, each word was like a steel needle, piercing the listener's heart.

Poison yourself? Why? How can someone be so disregarding their lives and harming their own bodies

What's more, in this palace, everyone's life is not their own, but the emperor's. Suicide is a felony, and it is taking away things that belong to the emperor without authorization.

"Why did His Royal Highness poison himself?" Eunuch An asked.

"For Master Yun!" Shan Hui said.

It's Musician Yun again!

"Not long ago, the crown prince and Master Yun Yue bid farewell to each other in Ningzhou, and Master Yun Yue insisted on not following the prince to the capital." Shan Hui said: "The prince was crazy about it, and in order to lure Master Yun Yue to come, he poisoned himself and became ill. Sorry, I used this as an excuse to send someone to invite Master Yun!"

Everyone was shocked.

Everyone, from the beginning to the end, thought that Master Yun Le was the benefactor who rescued the prince from the ghost gate, but they didn't expect that he turned out to be the cause of the disaster!

"Nonsense!" The emperor said angrily, "If the crown prince is really messing around like this, how can the empress ignore him!"

"I don't know if Your Majesty still remembers." Shan Hui said quietly: "The crown prince fell ill after drinking a bowl of decoction. The prescription of the decoction was written by the empress herself!"

It's winter, even if people in the palace are not sick, they still have to drink a bowl of tonic decoction every day. The queen is known for her talents and has done some research on medicinal materials, so she personally wrote a paper of nourishing prescriptions and handed them to Yuanheng Palace Pharmacy After the prince drank it, he couldn't get sick.

"Shan Shuren, you don't know how to repent and dare to slander the queen!" Eunuch An hurriedly stopped and said, "Who doesn't know that several eunuchs have to taste the decoction brewed in the pharmacy! After His Royal Highness fell ill, The emperor also sent someone to investigate the bowl of soup and medicine, there is no toxicity at all, and the eunuchs are safe and sound!"

"Fragrant." Shan Hui closed her eyes and only uttered one word.

"fragrant?"

"In the Queen's Yuanheng Palace, sandalwood is burned all the year round." Shan Hui said: "And in the tonic prescription, there is a taste of cassia. When sandalwood and cassia meet together, people will almost die! When the eunuchs tried the medicine , the empress did not light the sandalwood, and only lit the sandalwood when His Royal Highness took the medicine!"

"Prince doctor, tell me." The emperor turned to the doctor beside him.

"This... it is indeed written in the medical books that sandalwood and cassia seed are complementary to each other, and taking them together is life-threatening." The imperial physician hesitated and said, "But since no one dares to try it, it is not known whether it is true or not."

"The concubine and Lian Xin are both willing to test the medicine with their own bodies!" Shan Hui said anxiously.

"I'm afraid it's not allowed for Lian Xin to test the medicine." A voice came from behind the crowd, and when they turned their heads, they saw that it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has fully recovered, and he came to Huixinyuan in person without bringing a few entourages with him.

Beside His Highness the Crown Prince, the one in white with a white gauze on his head was none other than Yun Yueshi.

"The mixture of sandalwood and cassia seeds is extremely poisonous and life-threatening. This is clearly written in medical books!" Shan Hui argued: "Only people who are mortal can test the medicine. The guilty concubine and Lianxin have committed serious crimes. Knowing that there is no way out, I am willing to try medicine."

"Alright then, let Lian Xin test the medicine!" the emperor ordered.

Eunuch An ordered people to cook a bowl of decoction according to the queen's prescription that day, and then lit sandalwood in the dark room to let Lian Xin enter to test the medicine.

Lian Xin showed no signs of fear, and in the lingering sandalwood, she took up the medicine bowl and drank it all in one gulp, and after a while, fainted on the ground!

The imperial physician sent Lian Xin to the bedroom for treatment, Shan Hui smiled triumphantly.

"Nonsense!" The emperor was shocked and angry: "Why did the empress poison her own son?"

"The Ai family would never do such a thing!" It was the queen's voice, surrounded by a crowd, the queen came slowly, with anger in her tone: "Shan Hui, you really do not repent!"

"The reason is very simple. The empress is different from ordinary people. She is a person with the most affection and nature." Shan Hui sneered: "The empress does not love power or money. What she loves is poetry and art. What she pursues is The true love in the world!"

Everyone was silent, and had to admit that what Shan Hui said was right, the queen was aloof and aloof, she only loved literature and art, and had no concern for the secular world.

"The queen saw that the prince missed Master Yun Yue, and she also agreed with the prince in her heart, so she helped the prince plan such a bitter plan regardless of the overall situation!" Shan Hui said: "The queen pursues the true love in the world, and everything else is in her eyes. It's dust, even if it's the prince's life, reputation, status... you can ignore it all!"

The emperor was silent.

"Your Majesty, seeing all this, the guilty concubine is really anxious and unable to stop it." Shan Hui said with a sad face, "Such a stupid, confused and ignorant queen will not only fail to bring the prince back to the right track, but will help the prince all the way." Wrong again! When the guilty concubine was anxious, she just wanted to stop all this and also wanted to preserve the reputation of the crown prince, so she slandered the queen... The guilty concubine knew she was wrong! The guilty concubine should have told the truth from the very beginning!"

Although her remarks were sensational, they were logical and reasonable.
