Chapter 150: The Chaos in the Palace (2)
Liu Yu didn't know the truth of the matter, and he couldn't make an attribution. Besides, Su Bi was angry now, and there was real evidence that she had found that the matter she believed was framed and accusation, and it would be useless to explain it to her.
"What does the princess think, that's what it is." Liu Yu said, "It's better for the princess to ask the emperor's will to come again, so there is no one to stop it."
Obviously Liu Yu didn't give her face, Su Bi glared at him and said, "Wait, I will go and invite the imperial edict now!"
Seeing the Fourth Princess leave, the soldiers around the Imperial Guards finally breathed a sigh of relief. The Fourth Princess is famous for being arrogant. If she really breaks in, she will inevitably be punished. Commander Liu can actually make the Fourth Princess compromise, and the guards looked at Liu Yu with a little respect.
"Don't forget your responsibilities." Liu Yu reminded the guards before leaving.
After walking a while with Qier, Qier asked, "Brother Liu, where are you going?"
"Let's go and leave that place so that your fourth sister will not cause trouble for me again when she comes back. Mr. Han comes out later and asks him to take us to see your mother. Will you go?"
Qi'er nodded and said, "Qi'er wants to see her mother too."
"Small stutter, aren't you with you?" Liu Yu remembered Wu Shuo, and logically said that they should be inseparable.
"I don't know, Yaya didn't come out today. I was still waiting for her, but I heard that something happened to my mother."
Liu Yu really wanted to take Qier to Old Man Wu to ask him what he had talked to the old emperor last night, because Liu Yu had a bad idea in his mind. This poison might have been ordered by the old emperor. Concubine Qin and the other three just happened to meet him. Referring to Emperor Wu of Han killing Mrs. Gouyi, even if Mrs. Yi is now low-key, she will inevitably become an authoritarian empress dowager in the future.
In addition, since ancient times, the emperor Bintian has had the tradition of burying concubines with him.
Some things must be endured, and Wu You cannot see him for the time being. When Han Sheng came out, Liu Yu proposed to meet the three concubines who committed the crime. Han Sheng looked very embarrassed and said, "The emperor means that the three imperial concubines cannot see anyone for the time being."
Even his mother couldn't see him, Qi'er cried again in a hurry. Liu Yu comforted him for a few words before Qi'er stopped her tears. At this time, someone from the Yaqian Hall passed by a message saying that the emperor summoned the commander of the Imperial Army.
Liu Yu hurried to see the old emperor. In the Yaqian Hall, the old emperor was still coughing continuously. He looked so energetic, but he did not seem to have become depressed by the poisoning case that happened today.
"Wen Yan, you are the commander of the Imperial Guard. What do you think should be dealt with when this happens in the palace?"
Liu Yu could hear the meaning of this sentence. He did not talk about how to investigate and collect evidence, but directly talked about how to deal with it. The old emperor meant that he wanted to confirm the matter. Either the old emperor ordered people to poison, or the old emperor had determined that there was no suspense in the matter. In short, the emperor's attitude was very unfavorable to Concubine Qin and the other two.
Liu Yu said respectfully: "When you return to the emperor, the poisonous substances are not owned by the palace. If you enter the palace, you will have any mistakes of being in the prison. Please punish the emperor."
The old emperor sighed: "There are many people coming and going in the palace. If you intentionally carry it in private, it is not as conspicuous as weapons, so it is difficult to find out. Let's get up, Wen Yan, you are not at fault for this matter."
"Thank you, the emperor." Liu Yu continued, "I have another proposal."
"Oh, but it's okay."
"I think there is a case of poisoning in the palace. The three palace gates should be temporarily closed, leaving only one main gate, and the guards should strictly investigate the people entering and leaving, and register and record them. First, it can maintain order in the palace, and second, it can also find people who bring poison into the palace."
Liu Yu's proposal was almost to put martial law in the palace. It was definitely not the case in the palace when it was important. But now not only did the poisoning case happen, but the throne was about to change. The old emperor thought for a moment and finally nodded, "It should be the case, let me leave it to Wen Yan to do it."
The palace martial law means that everyone who comes and goes through the search of the Imperial Guards, and whoever enters will register and file. Liu Yu will know everything about him. A poisoning case made the entire palace under control, and Liu Yu suddenly felt confident in controlling the overall situation.
Liu Yu came out of Ya Front Hall and wanted to go to the inner court with Qier again, but when he heard Su Bi was still arguing with the guards at the door, it was said that the emperor did not allow her to enter the inner court, so Liu Yu did not want to join in the fun.
In response to Yang Lie's instructions to close the three doors and leave only the main door, Liu Yu asked Qier to go back and wait for news first, and he also wanted to go home for lunch.
The vanguard general's mansion is also very busy, not because of the accident in the palace, but because his daughter Xu Caihua's deputy commander was about to get married. The mansion was full of joy and prepared a lot of dowry. As Xu Caihua's "family family", Xu Xuanzhu was helping to prepare.
"Wang Shangshu came here in person today and agreed on the wedding with Caihua's sister's mother." When Xu Xuanzhu saw Liu Yu, he smiled and recounted the harmonious scene of the meeting between the two families in the morning.
Liu Yu knew that this "harmony" was obviously unilateral to the elders of the two families, and the two parties involved in the marriage were unwilling to do so.
"Mr. Wang is here too?" Liu Yu asked with a sip of tea.
"I didn't come, Sister Caihua also didn't return to the city for several days as if she was angry. She was eating and living in the military camp." Xu Xuanzhu smiled and suddenly asked again, "Husband, I heard that the palace gate has been closed. Has there been any change in the palace?"
Liu Yu said the poisoning case that happened in the palace. Xu Xuanzhu sat down next to Liu Yu, with a grim expression. Finally, he seemed to be asking for Liu Yu's opinions.
"Watch the changes." Liu Yu finally said, "The court struggle has always been turbulent. We are outsiders and should not be too careful."
Liu Yu said this just to relieve Xu Xuanzhu.
Xu Xuanzhu was about to inform the dinner when the Han sisters also came out of the inner room. At this time, Lu Chu'er informed the national master that he was asking for a meeting.
Liu Yu was surprised that Wu You didn't avoid coming to the mansion to ask for a meeting in person. Aren't you afraid that the old emperor would have any misunderstandings? Liu Yu gave Xu Xuanzhu a few instructions, and no one could approach the side hall of the reception.
Wu You still looked careless and lazy as before. Liu Yu invited him into the door and asked directly: "Master Wu, did you commit the poison today?"
Wu You was anxious and cursed, "You little brat, can you stop accusing others? You are a Taoist practitioner and never do anything that harms the world."
"Did you provide that poison?" Liu Yu asked again.
Wu You said disdainfully: "The little old man is an alchemy, not a poison. Where can I find poison?"
Liu Yu knew that if he did it, he didn't need to hide it. Seeing that he was sure of it wouldn't be like lying.
"I said to Master Wu, you encouraged me to rebel at the beginning. If the emperor knew about this, what would happen?" Liu Yu said angrily, "Don't say that the emperor asked you to come over and test my words."
"The emperor has the reason to encourage his ministers to rebel?" Wu Shuo said angrily, "I'm going to tell you that the purpose of coming to you today is to encourage you to do it earlier!"
Liu Yu was embarrassed and asked, "What did the emperor summon you yesterday? "
Wu You said seriously: "The emperor summoned me over. In addition to asking about astrology, the most important thing is to ask him his own limit. The old man also spoke out bluntly, saying that according to astrology, the emperor's destiny will only last ten days."
"Ten days?" Liu Yu said horrified, "What did the emperor say?"
"The emperor immediately summoned someone and wrote a secret memorial to take him out of Chang'an City. The young man guessed that it should be a secret edict to summon someone to quickly enter the capital. Later, the emperor talked about it and said that the young man's prediction was roughly consistent with the imperial doctor's diagnosis, saying that his spirit was getting worse day by day, and he realized that the deadline was coming soon."
The dying person has a very accurate prediction of the remainder of his life. Liu Yu did not expect that the old emperor would skip him and directly issue a secret edict to the secret envoy in the Imperial Guard to summon the King of Chu to return to Chang'an quickly. Liu Yu was not too worried. After all, it was a dark night to happen. The old emperor had the habit of giving direct orders to the secret spies, so he would not deliberately go through Liu Yu's second procedures to cause trouble.
But when the old emperor summoned him today, he did not mention any words about this matter, which made him quite puzzled.
Liu Yu guessed that the old emperor did not want to leak the news about his upcoming Bintian. Perhaps it was because of this that the old emperor was determined to kill the women in the inner court. An arrogant emperor would still be selfish when he was about to die and would also clear obstacles for his son to ascend the throne, killing two birds with one stone.
Wu You continued: "Maybe the dying person has a lot of feelings. The emperor talked about his past experiences all night, saying that he shouldn't usurp the throne of his brother, saying that he was harsh on his children, and saying that he also said some messy things. Finally, he asked the old man to calculate for him and asked his son if he could hold the throne firmly."
Liu Yu became even more interested: "Then what are your calculations?"
"This is not too difficult, so I will let him know. Whether it is the hexagram or the heavenly sign or the astrology, they are exactly the same. To be honest, the bloodline of the Dashun Dynasty will continue among his descendants until the end of the Shun Dynasty, and the little old man did not lie." Wu You showed a cunning smile, "The emperor ordered the little old man to calculate the fate of the Shun Dynasty. The little old man calculated with his fingers, 'The beginning of the rejuvenation will not be extinct'. As for how long it will last, let the emperor think about it slowly." (To be continued.
