Gu Zhixing turned to look at Meng Liu: "I want to adopt a child to my aunt in the future."

Before Meng Liu could answer, Gu Zhixing laughed at himself: "Forget it, there is no point in dying like a lamp going out."

"It's okay, I'll just adopt one and give it to my aunt." Anyway, she was going to have eighteen children, so one or two less would not be a big problem.

"This slave wants to report on Concubine De for poisoning the queen!" Rong'er cried out loudly.

Emperor Xuancheng raised his head suddenly, his eyes blazing: "What did you say?!"

Rong'er sobbed and knelt down: "The Queen was obviously fine yesterday. She just used some pastries presented by Concubine De this morning. She will be here soon..."

Emperor Xuancheng was furious, took out the guard's knife and slashed at Concubine De.

Concubine De was so frightened that her personal maid, who loyally protected her master, immediately stood in front of her and died under the sword of Emperor Xuancheng.

Concubine De was hurriedly stumbling and shouting: "I am unjustly accused! It is true that I sent cakes to the Queen, but I definitely did not poison her!"

Seeing that Emperor Xuancheng was about to behead him again, Concubine De directly shouted out what she was thinking: "I really don't have a cousin. You and I grew up together. Don't you know what kind of person I am? Since the birth of the eldest prince, things in the harem have changed." I have very little contact with you, and I only occasionally send greetings to the Queen. I have never had any intention of murdering the Queen!"

"If I ever have such thoughts, I will go to the eighteen levels of hell after death and never be reincarnated!"

"If the Queen is really poisoned, then the murderer must be someone else! It is not a pity for me to die, but the real culprit who harmed the Queen must not be allowed to go unpunished, Your Majesty!"

After her words came out, Emperor Xuancheng regained some sense.

He stared at Rong Er: "You said that Concubine De poisoned the Queen, do you have any evidence?"

Rong'er had already prepared it. She took out a ball of cakes wrapped in a handkerchief from her arms and presented it to the emperor.

Emperor Xuancheng threw away the knife in his hand and was about to take it. Jiang Xiangfu hurriedly advised: "Your Majesty, don't do it. I don't know if this poison will be harmful to the dragon's body!"

Emperor Xuancheng kicked him away and took the cake: "I am ordered to get out of the Taiyuan Hospital!"

Cold sweat broke out on the head of the Taiyuan Hospital judge who was kneeling behind him. The emperor was furious now. No one knew what would happen. He stepped forward tremblingly, took the little pastry, and twisted a little with his fingertips. Put it in your mouth and taste it.

Suddenly his expression changed drastically, and he knelt down directly: "Reporting to the emperor, this pastry is poisonous, and... it is the most poisonous Hedinghong!"

Emperor Xuancheng hit Concubine De in the heart with a kick: "You poisonous woman! How dare you poison the queen!"

Concubine De's whole body fell backwards, and her bun fell apart. She clutched her chest and tremblingly got up and knelt down again: "I am really unjust! If I were really a concubine, how could I personally deliver the cakes?" The poison was so obvious?! The murderer must have framed him!"

She went crazy and grabbed Lu Bin beside her: "Is it you?! You used to love to quarrel with the Queen the most? Did you poison the Queen?!"

Concubine Lu was so frightened that she waved her hands quickly: "No, no, I will never dare to offend the Queen..."

Concubine De changed her target again and grabbed Concubine Shu beside her: "That's you! If your ambition for the harem has always been obvious, you must have murdered the empress and coveted the throne!"

Concubine Shu was also frightened. She did not expect that Concubine De would bite like a mad dog.

An Ning spoke up in time: "Concubine De, please don't bite randomly. My mother-in-law and the empress have never had any grudges. How could I do such a treasonous thing!"

Concubine De captured the other concubines one by one.

"It must be you! I heard you calling the Queen's son a bastard in the Royal Garden. You must be jealous that the Queen has a son and you don't!"

Meng Liu was stunned. Did Concubine De go crazy on the spot? Fortunately, Concubine Rou was far away and was not affected. She glanced at Gu Zhixing. He also had a frosty face and looked at Concubine De as if he were looking at a dead person.

Emperor Xuancheng sneered: "Come here, Concubine De has plotted to kill the empress. Cut this bitch into pieces!"

The guards paused for a moment and stepped forward to drag Concubine De down. Concubine De continued to cry out for injustice.

Emperor Xuancheng looked at all the concubines inch by inch, and everyone he glanced at was like walking on thin ice.

He naturally knew that Concubine De was not responsible for this matter, and Concubine De was not stupid, so she could not have mixed the poison in the pastry and served it to the queen.

But she was wrong because she was the one who brought the plate of pastries to the queen. If she didn't bring it to the queen, how could the murderer find an opportunity to take advantage of it!

"Check it out for me! Even if you dig three feet into the palace, you still have to find out the real culprit for me!"

After saying this, Emperor Xuancheng seemed to notice something: "Where is King Yi?"

Jiang Fuxiang stammered: "Not yet... not here yet."

Everyone was afraid to breathe. At this moment, a young eunuch ran in in a panic.

"See Your Majesty, what's wrong? King Yi went to the Jokhang Temple today to pray for the Queen. He was discussing scriptures with Master Yuanji in the mountain behind the Jokhang Temple. A group of robbers came. At the critical moment, Master Yuanji used King Yi to block the knife. The king passed away..."

"Okay, great, a mere monk dares to use me to block the knife and cut my body into thousands of pieces!"

After saying this, Emperor Xuancheng looked blankly at the sky: "Since I came to the throne, I have never neglected my career in the slightest. However, my beloved ones, my sons, have left me one by one. What kind of Bodhisattva and Buddha have I ever done?" Have you protected me?!"

Emperor Xuancheng lowered his head and closed his eyes: "Please pass on my instructions. Starting today, all temples and halls in the Daye Dynasty will be burned by me. If any people worship Buddha statues privately, they will be killed without mercy!"

Forget the first one, but burning down all the Buddhist temples is absolutely impossible! Countless old ministers offered words of advice, and some even slammed their heads against the pillars to dissuade him.

When Meng Liu heard about his death, she guessed that it was Gu Zhixing who caused it. She had forgotten about the monk for so long, but she didn't expect that Gu Zhixing would always remember it for her.

No one present could have imagined that the Queen and King Yi would be so important to the emperor that they would burn down all the Buddhist halls to vent their anger on the Queen and King Yi.

Rong'er, who was still kneeling in front of the emperor, lowered his eyes, "Mother, when this slave has finished the last thing, I will come to accompany you right away!"

Time passed by, and the commander of the imperial guards who searched the palace entered the palace with a sword.

He cupped his fists and saluted: "Your Majesty, they have been found."

Emperor Xuancheng looked over and smiled: "Who is it?"

"In all the palace, only the soil under the Fourth Prince's courtyard has Crane Crown Red buried in it!"

The fourth prince suddenly panicked, how could this be possible?

He knelt and moved over to hug the emperor's feet: "Father! Father, I am definitely not a son. I don't know why this thing appeared in my palace. I don't dare to have the slightest intention of harming my mother." ah!"

Emperor Xuancheng looked down at his son, his smile getting bigger and bigger: "Everyone said they dare not harm the queen, and each one was found to have evidence of poisoning the queen." He suddenly attacked: "Do you think I am too old to be fooled? ?! I remember that you are my heir, so today I will give you your whole body, Jiang Xiangfu, and give the Fourth Prince a glass of poisonous wine!"
