Chapter 126 Everyone has a layer of skin in their hearts

A crying sound came faintly from the corner of Shufang Palace. Concubine Yi, who had slightly red eyes, looked at the eunuch kneeling in front of her, smiled reluctantly, and asked the eunuch to leave the hall. After a moment of silence, her hand huddled in her sleeves, tightly clasped the handkerchief, and said hoarsely: "I don't believe it."

At this time, the palace was already in chaos, and the Empress Dowager had several orders to come out quickly. Whether it was the Empress of the Eastern Palace or Ning Cairen, they would immediately move to Hanguang Hall to live. And there was no exception to Concubine Yi, who raised the youngest prince of the Emperor Qing Kingdom.

At that time, when he was in the hall, Concubine Yi clearly heard these decrees, and of course he understood that the so-called moving to Hanguang Hall was just to facilitate the monitoring of these people in the palace.

Her mind was a little dazed, and she didn't know what kind of situation she and her son were going to face... The emperor died? The emperor died! Her temples were a little confused, and she shook her head vigorously, as if she wanted to drive this shocking news out of her mind.

"How can the emperor die, how can he die?"

She bit her lower lip tightly, and the rosy lips were bitten with a blue and white mark. The rain outside the palace had stopped, and the cicadas cried, but the refreshing chill filled the air, wrapping her body and making her shivering.

Although His Majesty the Emperor has never had any special preference for women, and there were only more than twenty concubines in the harem, Concubine Yi was the most favored person in the past few years. If you want to say that she has no feelings for the emperor, it is naturally false. However, her sadness, her panic, and her anxiety were not just because of the news of His Majesty's death.

The military, the Supervisory Office, the prefectures and counties sent a thousand miles to Kyoto, conveying the great news to the nobles in the capital - Your Majesty was assassinated!

However, the military and county intelligence is that the person who assassinated His Majesty was Fan Xian of the Supervisory Office!

Lord Xiao Fan colluded with Dongyi City Sigujian, and on the occasion of Dadongshan sacrificed the sky, he suddenly became ruthless and suddenly became a ruthless king!

The information from the Supervision Bureau only confirmed the news of His Majesty's death, but the specific process description seems particularly vague, which instead confirms the authenticity of the previous two messages.

However, Concubine Yi didn't believe it!

It’s not that she didn’t believe that His Majesty the Emperor had passed away. But she didn’t believe that this was done by Lord Fan! This made no sense. His Majesty the Emperor sacrificed to the heavens to depose the prince. Fan Xian’s status will only be further stabilized after offering sacrifices to the heavens. How could he suddenly choose such a ridiculous move at this moment?

Concubine Yi was really scared. She felt that a net had been put on Fan Xian. She followed suit and put on Shufang Palace. She was born in the Liu family and prospered with the Fan family. Moreover, Fan Xian was appointed by His Majesty... Master of the Third Prince!

If Fan Xian really became the first culprit to plot against the enemy, the Fan family would naturally be executed, and the Liu family would not be spared. Concubine Yi might be pushed into the well, and the third prince...

"Mother! Mother!" The third prince, who had just received the news, ran into the hall and cried all the way. When he ran to Concubine Yi, he stopped in a daze and looked at his mother carefully with his eyes that were more mature than his peers.

Concubine Yi nodded in a daze.

The third prince pursed his lips and forced himself to endure it for a while, but still couldn't help it. He burst into tears and threw himself into the arms of Concubine Yi.

After a while, Concubine Yi gritted her teeth and pulled her son out of her arms, looked at his eyes viciously, and said hard: "Don't cry, don't cry. Now is not the time to cry... Your father is a king who stands tall and strongly, you can't cry."

The third prince Li Chengping sobbed, but stood firmly in front of his mother's ground and nodded heavily. Years of palace life. After following Fan Xian in Jiangnan for a year. The vicious prince who dared to open a brothel at the age of nine has long been tempered enough. It is extremely important to know what his mother wants to explain at this time.

"It's all rumored now. It's your master, Lord Fan." Concubine Yi stared into her son's eyes.

After a little panic, the third prince's eyes calmed down and said with hatred: "I don't believe it! The master is not such a person, and... he has no reason."

Concubine Yi smiled reluctantly, patted her son's head and said, "Yes, although there are reports from the military and prefectures, few people will believe that your master will be detrimental to Your Majesty... You know, he is the most valued minister of your father."

"It's not just us who don't believe it." Yi Guipin gritted his teeth and said, "The Empress Dowager doesn't believe it either, otherwise the Fan Mansion had already been circulated at this time, and the crazy woman wouldn't have been buried in the soil by the Empress Dowager."

The third prince nodded.

Concubine Yi lowered her voice and said, "But the Empress Dowager will not completely disbelief, although I don't know why... your uncle is about to enter the palace, and sister Chen and Sisi are also about to enter the palace. If the Empress Dowager really believes that the matter in Dadongshan was done by your master, I am afraid that the Fan and Liu families will fall into a desperate situation immediately."

"What can a child do?" The third prince clenched his fists, knowing that his future had been completely pressed on his master Fan Xian. If the master was really beaten into a lord-killing evildoer, he would never have the power to turn over again.

"Don't do anything, just cry, be sad, and accompany the Queen Mother..." Concubine Yi suddenly sighed, a pitiful look flashed in her eyes, and hugged the third prince again, "I haven't figured out the matter of Dadongshan for a day, and your master hasn't returned to Kyoto for a day, so the Queen Mother will not attack the Fan family immediately. We need this time to influence the Queen Mother, and then... wait for your master to come back."

The third prince nodded after a moment of silence. Like his mother, he had always maintained great confidence in Fan Xian. In their hearts, as long as the master returned to Kyoto, he would definitely be able to solve the whole thing.

The eunuch urged outside.

Concubine Yi was indifferent to the point of moving to Hanguang Palace.

A trace of ruthlessness flashed in the third prince's eyes, and he pulled out a poisoned dagger given to him by Fan Xian from under the table, and carefully hid it in his cute little boots.

He did not agree with his mother's previous words, and Hanguang Palace might not be very safe. What kind of crazy things can't be done by the chair left by the two brothers for the father?

Crown Prince Li Chengqian slowly tidied up his clothes, and there was no trace of crazy joy on his face. The news of the emperor's death reached the palace, and His Royal Highness, like all the princes and ministers, cried loudly, and his sadness could not be concealed.

But his face was sad, and there was a hint of paleness. When he walked to the door of the East Palace, he bowed deeply to the twilight in the distant east, and two tears fell in his eyes.

After a long time, he stood up, straightened his body straight, and thought sadly in his heart: "Father, it's not that my son is unfilial, but you have forced me to no way out."

Hong Zhu led the guards at the entrance of the East Palace, waiting to invite the queen and the prince to move to Hanguang Hall.

The prince looked outside the palace gate, turned around and looked at the queen, frowned slightly. He forced himself to cover up the helplessness in his eyes, held his mother's hand, and whispered in her ear: "My mother, please feel sorry for me."

The Empress, who has always been beautiful and noble, has been trapped in the Eastern Palace for the past six months and is no longer as prosperous as before. However, today I suddenly heard the news that His Majesty was assassinated in Dadongshan. The woman, who was childhood sweetheart with the emperor, still collapsed. She listened to the news from the various palaces like a walking corpse, but she could only sit on the couch and cry.

"Your father is dead..." The queen looked at the prince with despair.

The prince slowly lowered his head and said, "The boy knows, but... everyone is going to die."

His face was still full of sorrow, but this sentence was extremely calm.

The queen seemed to have recovered her mind in an instant. After understanding this sentence, she looked at her son with an incredible face, opened her mouth wide, and didn't say anything for a long time!

"The sacrifice to heaven is not completed." The prince whispered: "My son will become the next emperor of Qing State with justification. And you will be the Queen Mother."

The queen felt so many complicated emotions in her heart, her lips trembled. It was not until a long time later that she spoke: "Yes, yes, yes... Fan Xian killed the sky, I... I've said it long ago. That's a demon star... Our old Li family... always wants to destroy it in the hands of their mother and son... Go to Hanguang Palace for a while. I immediately asked the Empress Dowager to issue an order to kill the entire Fan family! No, behead both Fan and Liu families, and kill Chen Pingping's old dog!"

The prince held the queen's hand and suddenly heaviered a little. The queen felt pain and stopped her mouth.

The prince attached himself to her ear and said softly, "Don't say these words, remember, don't say a word... If you still want me to sit on that dragon throne, don't say anything. Now no one will believe Fan Xian Killing the Lord. If you say this, no one will believe it... So we have to wait in Hanguang Hall. In another four or five days, people and physical evidence will come back. If you don't say it, the Queen Mother will know what to do."

The queen was trembling all over, as if she had never known her son.

The prince finally whispered in her ear: "Qin Heng will enter the palace later... If you talk, the empress dowager will be able to talk."

In the second prince's mansion, which is not far from the palace, the second prince is like his brothers, tidying up his clothes while simulating sadness. As the emperor's family, his best attitude is to act, so when he was thinking about many things in his heart, the expression on his face was still so in place.

Princess Ye Ling'er looked at him coldly, without going forward to help, and asked softly for a moment: "Do you believe it?"

The second prince paused and replied calmly: "I don't believe it. I admire Fan Xian. He has no reason to do this."

Ye Ling'er frowned and asked, "Then why...the rumors are all saying this?"

"Rumors are just rumors, and they stop at the wise." The second prince lowered his head slightly and rolled up his snow-white sleeves. He was wearing a light-colored single dress today, looking particularly low-key and silent. "I would not believe that Fan Xian would be so bold until there is no evidence."

Ye Ling'er felt soft and said softly: "Be careful when entering the palace."

The second prince smiled reluctantly, patted his wife's face, and said, "What should I be careful? My father's grand ceremony is that he will not be mourned now. After the matter of Dongshan is clear, it will be the whole country to mourn, and then the prince ascends the throne. I am still the inconspicuous second prince."

"Are you willing?" Ye Ling'er looked at him in surprise.

After the second prince was silent for a moment, he suddenly spoke, "I won't hide it from you. I suspect that the prince's affairs in Dongshan were done..."

Ye Ling'er was shocked and covered her mouth tightly.

The second prince smiled bitterly and said, "It's just a guess."

After saying this, he walked out of the mansion, called himself in the corner, and whispered: "Notify my father-in-law. Be prepared to enter Beijing at any time."

It was the earth, the father was dead, and the second prince stood at the door of the mansion and suddenly felt that the sky above his head had begun to shine with a beautiful blue light, and no one could block his head. He saw the matter of Dadongshan very clearly because His Highness had never concealed it from him.

If the prince ascended the throne, he would ascend the throne. However, no matter whether Fan Xian died or lived, the old guys standing behind Fan Xian could surrender?

A sneer appeared on the corner of the second prince's lips. He would help the prince. He would sit on the chair for the time being and let him face the Supervisory Office. The Fan family's powerful backlash, he just needs to look coldly. When the prince's waste, he is the mastermind of the mastermind's father-killing king in the future, see what will happen to him!

There is no time to be sad.

All those who knew the news of His Majesty the Emperor had no time to be sad. After a moment of shock, they began to arrange the follow-up matters calmly and indifferently. Those who were qualified to sit in that chair began to prepare, those who were qualified to decide that the chair belonged to the local people, and began to ventilate in the dark.

Although the Empress Dowager asked relevant personnel to enter the palace as soon as possible, she still gave those people enough time to communicate.

Everyone seemed to have forgotten that the dead was the most powerful king since the founding of Qing Kingdom. He was the supreme ruled this land for more than 20 years and was the spiritual symbol of all Qing Kingdom people.

They were disturbed by the bonus in front of them and the fragrance at their noses, and they had only time to be excited and panicked, pretending to be sad, but they didn't have time to be truly sad.

There is only one person.

The eldest princess slowly pushed open the gate of the royal villa that had been nominally closed for several months, stood calmly on the stone steps, and looked at the carriage and eunuchs who came to welcome her into the palace below. Her beautiful and delicate facial features did not tremble at all. She was wearing a thin white dress. She was pretty and simple. She was extremely sad.

She did not look back at the other yard, and slowly raised her head. Looking at the blue sky after the clouds and rains in the sky, the sadness on her face became heavier and stronger, and it became thicker and thicker. It was so thin that it was faint that there was no trace of emotion. Her jade-like skin seemed to be transparent, allowing everyone in the world to see her true emotions.

That pain and peace.

Li Yunrui smiled slightly, and the clear light scattered everywhere. He whispered to a wisp of the emperor's soul on the distant mountain in his heart: "Brother, go."

Then she got on the carriage and drove to the palace where the country was about to decide to belong.

Unlike the prince and the second prince, she was not willing to guard against the Supervision Bureau and the Fan Mansion. Because she stood higher and saw farther. The key to the whole thing was confirmed with the three tired horses who had traveled thousands of miles back to Beijing, and the subsequent things were just a natural result.

As long as His Majesty dies, the whole thing will be over.

Regardless of whether the empress dowager would believe Fan Xian, she was the empress dowager of Qing Kingdom after all, and she must believe it, and the eldest princess also has a way to make her believe it.

As for whether the crown prince or the second prince succeeded to the throne, the eldest princess Li Yunrui didn't care much. What she cared about was the death of that person.

I can help you, and when you abandon me, I can destroy you.

The woman in the carriage laughed and then started crying.

The rain slowly dripped from the branches at the city gate, and it had been a few days since the three cavalry entered the Beijing News. There was no airtight wall in the world, the abnormal movements between the palace city and the city gate department, the Kyoto government yamen runners all went to maintain public order, and the abnormal silence of the Supervisory Office made the people of Kyoto vaguely guess the truth.

The truth they couldn't believe.

The reactions of the people are always different from those of the powerful. They view things more directly and sometimes more accurately. They only know that His Majesty Qing is a good emperor. At least from the life of the people of Qing, Emperor Qing is a rare good emperor.

Therefore, the people were sad, sad, crying and lost, not knowing what the future of this country would look like. They also had doubts in their hearts, and they did not believe that Lord Xiao Fan would be... the thief who should kill Qiandao!

Officials did not believe it at the beginning, but the five hundred black cavalry of Fan Xian's relatives has not yet received any reward, and the official ship parked in Danzhou disappeared without a trace. The testimony of the surviving "living mouth" of Dadongshan pointed directly at Fan Xian, and countless evidence began to gather in the palace. Although it was not enough to prove anything, it could convince some people who were willing to be persuaded.

The Fan Mansion has been controlled.

The Duke's Mansion was also controlled.

Perhaps what is coming soon will be a bloody storm.

I heard that the palace began to prepare for the prince to succeed to the throne.

The deposed prince is about to succeed to the throne... History and reality are always so absurd.

At this moment, a businessman selling soybean oil, wearing a hat and using Gongfangsi's documents, went through hardships to enter the East City gate, which had been transformed from fully enclosed to semi-enclosed, and walked to a corner of the Nancheng City, and moved into the inn.
