Chapter 227 227

The king of Rui fainted without warning, but the concubine Rui was frightened, and the child was handed over to the nursing mother, who immediately followed the **** to help the king to Chongzheng Hall. On the Spring Festival, Emperor Xuande was in a good mood. He wrote a few simple lantern riddles, waiting for his grandchildren who entered the palace for a while to guess whether it would be too difficult to hesitate facing the lantern riddles. Shouting what Rui Wang.

Emperor Xuande walked out with a calm face, and then saw his most filial second son being carried by two eunuchs, he was unconscious, his face turned blue, as if poisoned!

The figure shook, Emperor Xuande fell backwards uncontrollably, and was promptly supported by the great **** Wang En, and the **** was about to rush over. Emperor Xuande waved his hand and commanded in a flustered manner: “Imperial doctor, pass the eunuch!”

Immediately a **** rushed towards the hospital, while Rui Wang was supported on the dragon couch in the side hall. Before the imperial doctor arrived, Emperor Xuande opened his son’s eyes for a long time, and he personally checked his son’s eyes. When he turned his head, he saw Princess Rui kneeling on the ground, watching their father and son in horror while crying uselessly.

“Before Yuan Qian fainted, there was discomfort, what did he say?” Emperor Xuande interrogated coldly.

Princess Rui had already panicked. Liushen has no owner. Trying to recall the situation of the past two days, Princess Rui whipped up and said: “The prince was fine yesterday. Brother Li caught the week. The prince was happy. He drank a few more bowls and went to bed at night. It’s down… Woke up this morning, the prince said he was a little dizzy, and said he was a hangover, we didn’t take it seriously, and then…”

Speaking of this, I started crying again.

Emperor Xuande clenched his hand, remembering something, and turned his eyes to the little **** behind Wang En.

The little **** has been in for a while, and with the permission of the emperor, he reported in a low voice: “The emperor, His Royal Highness Shou Wang, and His Royal Highness are here.”

Hearing the word “Shou Wang”, Emperor Xuande narrowed his eyes imperceptibly and stared at the blue-faced Rui Wang. After a while, Emperor Xuande nodded. The little **** bent down and stepped back, and when he went outside, he asked the two princes to follow him in. Zhao Heng had already heard about the accident with King Rui, and softly asked Song Jianing and Li Mulan to take the children to stay outside first, and he and King Gong went to visit alone.

“Father, what’s wrong with your second brother?” Wang Gong was shallow, and when he saw King Rui on the bed, he frowned and asked directly.

Emperor Xuande didn’t answer, but raised his eyes to look at his youngest third.

Zhao Heng only looked at King Rui, with more shock and surprise on his face than worry. Although he appeared ruthless, it was consistent with his usual performance. After briefly checking the situation of King Rui, Zhao Heng turned to Emperor Xuande, as if waiting for Emperor Xuande to answer King Gong’s question, frankly and upright.

Emperor Xuande, who had been observing his son closely, found no flaws.

At this moment, the imperial physician arrived, and Emperor Xuande led the two sons to step away. The imperial physician stepped forward to signal the pulse. It took almost no time for the imperial physician to solemnly announce that King Rui was poisoned by arsenic, and quickly ordered the palace staff to prepare warm water. Induce vomiting to King Rui. The hall was busy, and Emperor Xuande was worried about his son and was furious. He ordered to block the Royal Palace from entering or leaving the palace, waiting for interrogation. At the same time, the capital was under martial law.

Looking at King Rui, who was tossed by various methods by the imperial physicians, King Gong suddenly felt a little cold, and wanted to see the third brother next to him, but he didn’t dare after all.

Zhao Heng looked at all this blankly.

In fact, at the beginning of the month, he knew that Chen Xiupai’s confidant was buying arsenic. Chen Xiu’s work was still secretive. He selected the arrangement when the Rui Wang and his wife entered the palace, and asked Xiaochou to pretend to be a common citizen to buy arsenic from an unfamiliar young man in the capital. Afterwards, Chen Xiushi gave Xiao Si a hundred taels of silver and ordered him to fly away.

Zhao Heng knew all of this, but he thought that Chen Xiu would poison Princess Rui or Brother Li. He never expected and did not understand that Chen Xiu would kill King Rui. If King Rui could not be saved…

Zhao Heng’s eyes became a little cold. He doesn’t want Rui Wang to die, he wants Rui Wang to live. At the beginning, King Rui sent people to worship the imperial uncle and cousin at the Royal Palace of Chu, spurring his brother to burn the Palace of Qin to anger his father, and he was demoted to a civilian confined to the Nangong Palace. Zhao Heng had already found evidence. But at that time, the emperor was angry. Even if he exposes the king of Rui, the emperor is immersed in his disappointment with his elder brother. He may only punish the king of Rui. After a while, Concubine Wu will blow the pillow breeze, and the king of Rui will regain power. .

Therefore, Zhao Heng has been waiting, waiting for the father to completely believe that the King Rui is like his brother, friend, respectful, virtuous gentleman, and then he chooses the opportunity to move. Last winter month, the father promoted Rui Wang to Jing Zhaoyin. He was biased towards Rui Wang and he was suspicious. This was a good time for him to do it, but he should not act too hastily. It seemed that someone was deliberately trying to kill Rui Wang. So Zhao Heng planned to do it on the emperor’s death day in early April. . Discovering that Chen Xiu had a conspiracy, Zhao Heng temporarily changed his plan and prepared to throw bait while the Royal Palace of Rui was born.

Now Rui Wang’s Mansion is in chaos, but it’s not what Zhao Heng wants. What he wants is Rui Wang to live, to be disgusted by his father, to be banned from Nangong, to feel the suffering of his brother, if Rui Wang is so simple Being poisoned to death by a side concubine…It was like a punch on cotton, Zhao Heng couldn’t experience any pleasure of revenge.

He really hoped that King Rui would come through.

Emperor Xuande and Princess Rui also wanted Rui Wang to live, but the day did not fulfill the wish, Rui Wang, who had become a quasi-prince, died in the hands of his beloved concubine.

Emperor Xuande pounced on Rui Wang, crying in grief. He had only five sons in total. After he reached the age of five, his beloved Xiao Wu from Empress Li died of illness, and Emperor Xuande suffered from pain all night. The boss who he most valued and had high hopes had only the emperor uncle in his heart. Without him, the emperor, Emperor Xuande was heartbroken. His young and brave fourth son lost an arm during the battle with Liao. Emperor Xuande felt the same way, as if he had also lost an arm. Now, his most filial and benevolent second son was unexpectedly poisoned to death!

“Check! Check! Who harmed my Yuanqian, hurry up and check!” Emperor Xuande, who held his beloved son and tasted the suffering of the white-haired man sending the black-haired man, wailed like a beast.

By order, all the relatives of the imperial family who went to the Royal Palace to celebrate their birthdays were banned in their respective palaces for thorough investigation, including the two families of King Shou and King Gong.

Song Jianing was frightened, how did King Rui die? She didn’t want to doubt her prince, but after all, in the entire capital, it seemed that only her prince had the motive to murder King Rui, right? Moreover, King Rui did not die sooner than later, but he died after the prince went there. You must know that the prince can’t go there more than twice a year.

Even she couldn’t help but think about Zhao Heng, let alone Princess Rui and Guifei Wu, Princess Rui could only cry in the palace, but Guifei Wu ran to the Emperor Xuande with a disheveled hair, and directly named Zhao Heng by name, asking for Xuande. The emperor is the master for her.

Emperor Xuande suffered a serious illness last year and his body collapsed. Now the pain of losing his son is like a mountain. All the strength of Emperor Xuande is used to support himself. Once the dynasty is disbanded, he can only lean on the dragon bed. To deal with political affairs. As soon as Concubine Wu came in, Emperor Xuande closed his eyes. After listening to Concubine Wu’s cry, Emperor Xuande barely opened a gap between her eyes and asked Concubine Wu diagonally, “Do you have any evidence to identify the King of Life?”

Concubine Wu raised her head and cried regardless, “Do you still need evidence? Ever since Yuan Qian was promoted to Jing Zhao Yin, everyone in Beijing knew that the emperor preferred Yuan Qian to be the crown prince, and the King of Longevity coveted the throne, so she was jealous, so she secretly went down. To poison my son…The emperor, Yuan Qian just got Brother Li, he died wronged!”

Crying hoarse.

It was also his son who died. Emperor Xuande also hurt, and the corners of his eyes were sore, but Emperor Xuande still closed his eyes and said weakly: “I have asked Dali Temple to investigate. If the murderer is found, I will give Yuan Qian to the world. Let me give you an account, but until the truth is revealed, no one should slander King Shou. If you grieve for the loss of your son, this time I will not pursue it. If you dare to destroy the reputation of King Shou in front of anyone, I will punish him severely.”

After hearing this, Concubine Wu stared at him incredulously: “The emperor…”

“Go down.” Emperor Xuande was tired and lay down inside.

Concubine Wu was not reconciled and stood up and wanted to rush over. Wang En stopped in time and pushed and shoved the people out.

On the dragon couch, listening to Concubine Wu’s crying further and further away, Emperor Xuande clenched his chest, tears rolling down his eyes. He left the third son who was intact, a son who was both civil and military capable of intimidating courtiers and the imperial army. He hoped that this was not done by the third child, and hoped that the third child was not so cruel, but even if the third child was really cruel and desperate to siblings, He also couldn’t move the third one, and couldn’t let the third emperor of Da Zhou be shameless by the charge of crueling his brothers and feet.

With a choice in my heart, Emperor Xuande was ashamed of the second son who had died unjustly, and he hid in the inner hall and gritted his teeth and forbeared, unknowingly, the sky was dark outside the window.

Emperor Xuande faced the inside and ordered Wang Enxuan to make an edict to come in and write an edict.

Zhizhi will be here soon, the four treasures of the study are ready, please speak to the emperor.

Emperor Xuande recalled the filial piety of the second son, while complimenting Rui Wang Xiande, and then named Rui Wang the crown prince. The edict is well written and the ink is not dry. The Dali Temple Qing and Sun, who is responsible for the thorough investigation of the case of King Rui, beg to see you. Guessing that the murderer was found, Emperor Xuande suddenly got his strength, turned and sat upright, staring at Dali Temple with a sullen look, “Say!”

Lord Sun knelt on the ground and said in a complex mood: “The emperor, the minister has found out that Chen, the concubine of the Rui Wang, hates the princess’s son, so he bought arsenic in the water and put it on the belly of the finger, with the intention of poisoning the prince’s eldest son, unexpectedly. Unexpectedly, the prince visited the concubine on a temporary visit that morning and mistakenly accepted Pishuang…”

Emperor Xuande froze on the couch.

The **** Wang En forwarded Chen Xiu’s confession to him.

Emperor Xuande lowered his head and saw that it was clearly written on the confession, the drug-buying servant, the drug-seller who was arrested…

So, his son died in the dispute between his wives and concubines, not the third son?

At this moment, Emperor Xuande didn’t know whether he should like it or be sad. He liked that his third child was not a vicious person, and mourned his Yuan Qian’s hand in the wronged woman.

“The emperor, the minister has one more thing to play.” Dali Temple Master Qing and Sun looked up, cautiously.

Emperor Xuande was full of his sons who had died unjustly, but he nodded tiredly.

Lord Sun’s throat rolled and his head dropped lower: “The minister, the minister interrogated the guards around the prince, and one of them confessed to the case that the former king of Chu burned the palace of Qin by fire is related to the prince.”

Emperor Xuande suddenly raised his head.

Lord Sun held up a confession again.

Emperor Xuande read it several times and asked it several times, and he was sure that the boss was going crazy at the beginning was a trap set by the King Rui, and he was actually jealous of the third child for the sake of this son. Emperor Xuande was angry and hated, and he vomited blood. He held his hands tightly on the couch, coughing constantly.

“The emperor!” Wang En quickly rushed over, calling the imperial doctor aloud.

Emperor Xuande coughed for a long time, and his chest barely calmed down. The first thing that Emperor Xuande did was to ignore Wang En’s obstruction, walk barefoot to the ground, staggeringly in front of Zhi Zhigao, and grabbed the seal that had just been written. The paper edict that Rui Wang was the prince was severely torn apart.

Niezha, Niezha, how did he give birth to such a Niezha! If it weren’t for King Rui’s instigation, his boss might still be alive without worry, and his two good grandsons would not confine Nangong with his father. If the King Rui hadn’t caused the boss to fall out of favor first, he himself would not have become a quasi-prince, and he would probably not hold a birthday party and be killed by a sinister concubine!

Make yourself and suffer, make yourself suffer!
