Chapter Two Hundred and Eighty

Just when Gu Ye returned to Qingshan Village and was busy collecting medicines. Ling Juechen returned to the Yan Kingdom with great fanfare. Why do you say "big fanfare"? The others haven't returned yet, and the news that the general Wang is recovering from his injuries and is about to return to Beijing has spread in Shengjing.

In the Second Prince's Mansion, the exquisite porcelain was broken again. The second prince, who was imprisoned, was furious when he got the news. He didn't expect that Ling Juechen, who was in the Qi Jue San and was chased and killed by more than a dozen martial arts masters, would actually be able to survive.

Isn't Qijuesan the most poisonous medicine in the world? Didn't the person who gave him the medicine say that this poison has no antidote? Why after half a year, the surname Ling is still alive and is going back to Beijing?

The third child did not know where to know about the assassination of Ling Juechen, and even stabbed his father. Now, it is no longer a secret in the court that he attacked the general king. If he waited for Ling Juechen to come back, using the opponent's method—the second prince shivered for a moment—Ling Juechen would never care about his identity as a prince, I was afraid that his end would be miserable.

no! His plans must be advanced. As long as the emperor dies, he ascends the throne, and the surnamed Ling is not the meat on his chopping block, let him slaughter?

The second prince summoned the secret guard and said to him, "Go to the palace and tell the concubine, it's time to end!"

The old emperor's illness is getting worse and worse, and he has been awake less and less recently. The doctors were all helpless. The second prince asked several times to help his father, but they were all rejected. Now, the only one who filial piety by the emperor's side is the third prince.

If a person dies suddenly under the eyes of the third child, the third prince will not be able to get rid of it at that time. There is a sick young man left, the fourth child, and he is precarious, how can he compete with him? The second prince showed a sinister smile.

That night, the second prince was called into the palace, saying that the emperor woke up and wanted to meet a few princes. Could it be that the old thing is returning to the light, and it is necessary to issue an edict to establish a reserve? No, the mother-in-law should have already started at this time, and the news that the old thing died? Could it be that the mother and concubine missed, and the old medicine did not drink? The second prince had a bad feeling in his heart.

However, looking at the inner servant who came to pass the decree, he was as respectful as usual, and there was no other emotion at all. Maybe he was over-hearted, he had to be steady and don't scare himself.

The second prince entered the palace behind the servant. But he found that Emperor Shengde, who was supposed to be lying unconscious on the bed, was sitting on the dragon couch with no expression on his face. Although his face was thin due to a long illness, his eyes were full of light, and he seemed to be in good spirits.

"Father, you are awake!" The second prince was shocked. Although the poison he had given to the emperor was a chronic poison, it was difficult for ordinary people to detect it. This is why he was able to hide it from the imperial physicians. At this time, the emperor could not see the appearance of poisoning at all. Who is it that ruined his good deeds? The second prince gritted his teeth with hatred in his heart, but he had to put on a surprised expression, "That's great, the father is ill, and the son can't sleep in the mansion day and night, so worried..."

"Humph! I'm afraid you're not worried about me, but yourself!" Emperor Shengde snorted coldly and took two sips of the tea in the hands of Chief Fushun.

The second prince was shocked again, and put on an expression of grievance: "Father, where did you start..."

Emperor Shengde ignored him and ordered, "Go, invite Concubine Xian over here!"

What else does the second prince not understand? The matter has been exposed, for now, how to take out yourself. The second prince is mediocre and blunt, but he can be ruthless. Since he can murder the old emperor to ascend to the throne, he can be willing to give up the mother concubine who is dedicated to him.

Just as his heart was turning back and forth, Concubine Xian Gui had already been brought over. Concubine Xian Gui will definitely not do it herself when it comes to prescribing the medicine. After being in the palace for more than ten years, and being able to climb to the position of a noble concubine, it is naturally impossible for the palace to not have someone of her own. And what she used was the dark thread in the hospital.

Seeing Huang'er kneeling in court, Concubine Xian panicked in her heart and quickly calmed down, her eyes as bright as autumn water were filled with tears of excitement: "Your Majesty, you finally woke up..."

"Humph! If I don't wake up, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to wake up again! Imperial Doctor Feng really has excellent medical skills. After I drank two doses of his medicine, I woke up. Concubine Xian, this is the medicine that Imperial Doctor Feng sent tonight. Please, Concubine Ai, try the medicine for me!" Emperor Shengde pointed to the steaming medicine bowl, and sneered at Concubine Xiangui, who was slightly discolored.

Feng Taiyi was the person who was placed in the Taiyuan Hospital by Concubine Xiangui. Hearing this, she couldn't help but change color. Concubine Xian forced a smile and said, "Isn't there an eunuch who tests the medicine? Chen and concubine are afraid of hardship. Your Majesty, you don't know."

"It's okay, I prepared sugar and candied fruit for Concubine Ai. What? Concubine Ai doesn't want to?" The anger flashing in Emperor Shengde's eyes could hardly be restrained. If Chen'er hadn't come back in time and fed him the antidote, he would already be a corpse at this time. This is the good concubine he has loved for more than 20 years, and this is the good son he has trusted for more than 20 years!

"Someone! Bring the medicine over and let Concubine Xian test the medicine!" Emperor Shengde waved his hand unquestioningly.

Fushun took the medicine bowl and approached Concubine Xian, and said with a half-smile, "Please ask the concubine to test the medicine for the emperor..."

"No... Your Majesty, the concubines are afraid of hardships, this medicine... let others try it!" Concubine Xian was making the last struggle.

Emperor Shengde didn't give her any chance: "Come here, wait for Concubine Xian to test the medicine!"

Several palace maids standing quietly in the Gande Hall came over, grabbed Concubine Xian's arm, and the aunt in charge pleaded guilty, and she was going to force it down.

Concubine Xian struggled desperately. When people are on the verge of desperation, they always have unlimited potential. Several palace maids were unable to restrain her, and were freed by Concubine Xian. The medicine bowl in the hands of the aunt in charge was also knocked to the ground.

"Concubine Ai, it's just a test drug, why are you so afraid?" Emperor Shengde looked at all this coldly, "Could it be that Concubine Ai already knew that the drug was poisoned?"

"No, the concubine doesn't know anything! The concubine just accidentally broke the medicine bowl..." Concubine Xian bit her to death without knowing it.

"I don't know? Well, Fushun, let someone boil a bowl of the medicinal dregs from the imperial hospital and let Concubine Xian take it." Emperor Shengde ordered the imperial doctor Feng and the medicinal dregs that he had not had time to deal with. brought together.

Feng Taiyi saw that Emperor Shengde had woken up, and the concubine was in shock, thinking that the deeds had been revealed, so frightened, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, it was the concubine who coerced Weichen to do it, please forgive me! "

"You spit out blood! Imperial Doctor Feng, Ben Gong has no grudges against you in the past and no hatred in recent days. Why did you want to harm Ben Gong? Who instructed you to do it?"
