Chapter 387 Secret Medicine

Inexplicably, things have come to this point.

Because of Lu Qingshuang's incident, the emperor was already on full alert against Prince Duankang's palace. At this time, the prince was strangely resurrected. When the emperor looked at Princess Qingyang, he felt more and more that this person might not be in conflict with his destiny.

Otherwise, why would the prince, who was already dead, be alive again today?

The Minister of Justice did not say a word just now, but the Emperor himself had already thought of it. The Ministry of Rites had been admonishing the banquet for a long time, and it was the Emperor who had made the final decision and it must be held.

Rumors may have said that the prince's resurrection was because Prince Duankang was angry, but it may also be because the emperor himself was angry.

Princess Qingyang was not sure what the emperor was thinking. She stood there trembling with fear, fearing that she would be killed before the big thing could be accomplished. "Your Majesty, the resurrection of His Highness the Crown Prince may not be a supernatural anecdote. It may also be...

It was misdiagnosed by the hospital at that time.”

Regardless of whether it was a misdiagnosis or not, as long as it is blamed on the misdiagnosis, everyone's face will be saved.

The Minister of Punishment shook his head, "Even if it is a misdiagnosis by the Imperial Hospital, there must be an explanation for the two explosions today! The explosions were so loud, and the people in Kyoto now know that the entrance to the palace and the Crown Prince's residence were bombed, and that the Crown Prince came back to life.

, everyone in the Prince's Mansion is overjoyed, and the news has already spread."

After saying this, the Minister of Punishment raised his fist towards the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, this matter cannot be delayed any longer."

The emperor looked at Princess Qingyang with disgust and said, "You guys should go back. Prince Duankang is seriously injured. During the period of recuperation, Prince Duankang is not allowed to enter or exit the palace without permission. If you need anything, just tell the people serving over there."

Princess Qingyang's eyes widened and she looked at the emperor in shock.

They were... put under house arrest on the day they entered Beijing?

The chief chamberlain and the Minister of Punishment exchanged quick glances, and immediately stepped forward before Princess Qingyang could speak, "Your Highness, please."

How could Princess Qingyang be so willing? They had been planning for more than ten years just to go to Beijing this time. If they were put under house arrest as soon as they arrived in Kyoto, wouldn't everything later be delayed? She wanted to talk to the emperor again, but the head chamberlain refused to let her speak.

Opportunity.

"Your Highness, please stop delaying Your Majesty's business. This matter really cannot be delayed at all. If you delay a little here, His Majesty's situation may change rapidly."

With one sentence, the emperor's face turned livid, and Princess Qingyang's words were silenced.

If she persists, she is a sinner.

There was no other way, Princess Qingyang could only glare at the head chamberlain bitterly, then turned around and walked out.

The head chamberlain didn't care whether she stared at him or not, he sent the people out, ordered them personally, and sent the people from Prince Duankang's palace directly back to the side courtyard of Prince Yu's palace from the palace, specifically telling them to look at him to death, not even a mouse was allowed.

Get out.

This is the royal study room.

After Princess Qingyang left, the emperor discussed with his close courtiers how to deal with the aftermath.

When the prince died before, the emperor only felt sorry that a useful chess piece was missing, but now, as never before, he didn't want the prince to live.

If it hadn't been for the sentence from the Minister of Punishment that the prince's resurrection had already been spread, he would have even wanted to deal with the person secretly.

As long as the prince does not come back to life, the two explosions can completely push him to Prince Duankang's palace and have nothing to do with him.

Sitting in the large chair with a sullen face, the emperor watched the discussions among the courtiers in front of him.

The chamberlain came in with a pot of pear soup, poured a cup for the emperor, and said quietly: "You haven't eaten much all night, drink some of this to relieve the heat."

The emperor had nothing on his mind at the moment. His mind was in a mess, with anger and panic coexisting. The head chamberlain almost pushed a cup of pear soup over to him, and he drank it all in one gulp without even thinking about it.

The head chamberlain glanced at the emperor and gave him another refill.

But this time the emperor didn't touch him, and the chamberlain didn't dissuade him either. He lowered his head and stepped aside.

Several courtiers discussed for a long time and came up with a plan that was unanimously approved by everyone.

"Your Majesty, this is not the case.

We only said to the outside world that the Imperial Hospital was at a loss to diagnose and treat the Crown Prince at that time. However, Qintian Supervisor calculated that the Crown Prince’s life should not be cut off. It was originally a life of great blessings, but he needed to go through a catastrophe.

Only then can you enjoy the blessings you can only have after surviving a catastrophe.

Your Majesty and Qin Tianjian set up this mourning hall just to let the crown prince experience the catastrophe of death.

Now the prince has successfully overcome the tribulation."

The emperor frowned, "Isn't this a bit too mysterious?"

"The sudden explosion of a strange stone falling from the sky is already extremely legendary in itself. If someone adds fuel to the fire and takes it astray, I'm afraid the rumor will be hard to stop.

Rather than letting interested people take advantage of this, it is better for us to take advantage of it ourselves. We interpret this strange stone dropped from the sky as the prince's attempt to turn disaster into good luck, and the court will come forward to show that it is listening."

There was really no better choice. The emperor was silent and said to the Minister of Punishment: "Let's finalize the case. As for the banquet hall, let the second prince handle it."

There are still many courtiers and family members left behind in the banquet hall. Someone must go and send them out properly without causing any other trouble.

After all the matters that needed to be explained were finished, and as soon as the people in the royal study left, the emperor turned and asked the chamberlain, "Where is Yan'er?"

The head chamberlain was stunned for a moment, "I don't know, I don't know. I... go and find out?"

The emperor said nothing. The chamberlain paused, turned around and went out.

The emperor was the only one left in the huge imperial study. The beeswax wick was burning in the towering candlestick on the table. The emperor stared at the small ball of fire and felt very uneasy in his heart.

He never believed in the theory of ghosts and gods.

Today's explosion must be man-made.

But who could it be...that he could be so airtight that even the Ministry of Punishment couldn't find any clues about it.

And the prince...why did he come back to life today?

The more I thought about the emperor, the more angry I felt. I irritably grabbed the pear soup at hand, raised my head and drank a cup. After finishing the drink, I felt that it was not enough, so I grabbed another cup from the soup pot next to me and drank it.

After three cups of snow pear soup, the emperor's anger was not suppressed at all. On the contrary, he became even more furious. He stood up, picked up the cup and smashed it on the ground in front of him.

The cup was made of porcelain, and it couldn't withstand the strength of his anger. It immediately fell apart on the marble floor.

The little chamberlain who was waiting outside was so frightened that he trembled and was not sure what to do. Master Zhang, the commander of the Taiyuan Hospital, came from the side hall with an anxious look on his face and asked for permission to see the emperor.

The emperor's red eyes were filled with rage, staring at the envoy Zhang who came in from the outside like a violent lion.

Zhang Yuanshi glanced at the cup on the ground, stepped forward, saluted and said hello, "Your Majesty, I just learned about the Crown Prince, and said that the Crown Prince has returned from the dead."

The emperor looked at him without saying a word.

Zhang Yuan stood on the ground with his head lowered, "After I got the news, I thought about it carefully. There are records in ancient books that say that the patient was judged dead and put in a coffin, but he came back to life in the middle of the funeral. The reason is that this life
