Malicious Medical Princess of the Marquis House

Chapter 288 The death of the prince

brute!

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince walked into the hall, and was greeted by a scolding, followed by a head-smashing inkstone.

This time, it was the first time in his life that he avoided the object smashed by the emperor.

He knelt on the ground, I don't know what I've done wrong, and I asked the emperor to express it.

This time, for the first time in nearly 20 years, he is no longer trembling and walking on thin ice.

When he was ready for the worst, everything seemed to be understood. If there is no desire, then there is no need to be afraid.

This feeling of not being afraid of anything is really great.

Why, he didn't realize this in the past?

Why was he afraid in the past?

Afraid of not being able to sleep at night. Not because of fear of being abolished, afraid of shame, and afraid of death.

Now he is not afraid of being abolished, let alone death, but he is not afraid of anything.

As for shame, has he lost face less over the years?

He has become the laughing stock of the whole capital, the most ridiculous prince in history, isn't that shameful enough? I'm afraid it will also be recorded in the history books.

His Royal Highness lowered his head, pulled the corners of his mouth, and laughed at himself.

He laughed at his own stupidity. Why did he not understand these truths until today?

Those brothers all took a fancy to where he was sitting now.

But who knows how tormenting this position is, forcing a person to be a ghost or a ghost.

The emperor pointed at the prince and cursed angrily: Look at what you have done! I put my trust in you, but you are forcing the people to rebel against me. Do you still have the face to be the prince?

My common people are now without food and clothing, and every day people hang themselves, sell their sons and daughters, and just want a way to survive.

But you don't give them a way to live. If you don't open grain depots, don't provide disaster relief, don't repair canals, and don't allow victims to go out begging for food, you want to trap the people of a county to death.

Today, in the entire Xinfeng County, it is only a matter of someone climbing up and shouting, and they are about to rise up. My world is lost at the hands of you beast.

The emperor threw the manuscript of the inspection of the censor before the prince's palace.

His Royal Highness the Prince held up the playbook,

Hearing the emperor's scolding, his expression changed greatly, he couldn't believe it.

With trembling hands, he opened the playbook, and every sentence was punishing, and every word was weeping blood.

The people of Xinfeng County had already been cornered by local officials, and they were about to rise up and rise up.

The prince kowtowed and pleaded guilty, My son is frightened, and he doesn't know who he is, causing today's misfortune, and his son's death penalty.

The emperor was angry, Of course you deserve to die, and it's not a pity to die.

The magistrate of Xinfeng was recommended by the Prince Zhan Shi to Lord Xu, and the Prince also felt very good.

So he sent this person to Xinfeng to run the business, and when he made political achievements, he would rise step by step, and he would add a boost to the East Palace in the future.

Since last year, Xinfeng has suffered from drought, which has lasted until this year.

The ditches are dry, the crops are withered, the farmers have nothing to harvest, and the people sell their children and sell their daughters.

Almost all of the 200,000 people in Xinfeng County were driven to a dead end. As long as someone climbed up and shouted, they would turn against the government and the Great Zhou court.

In the face of the disaster in Xinfeng, the magistrate of Xinfeng did not think about disaster relief, but tried his best to suppress the local people and block the news.

He also wrote a letter to the Prince Zhan Shi, Lord Xu, asking Lord Xu to help cover up in front of the prince.

Don't you know the consequences of doing this when you are the magistrate of Xinfeng?

Of course he knew, he knew it better than anyone else.

The reason why he dared to do this was because he had a very famous bearer, the prince.

When the people of Xinfeng rebelled, the matter could not be concealed, the county magistrate of Xinfeng would be the first to bring the yamen, and the local guards took the lead to quell the chaos.

As long as the leader of the rebellion is killed and the spread of the situation is controlled, the magistrate of Thaxinfeng will be the hero of the court.

As for the evidence that the officials forced the people to rebel, all the personal and physical evidence will disappear in the wars of peace and chaos, and not even the scum will be left.

Even if the imperial court sent people to dig Xinfeng three feet into the ground, it would be impossible to find the criminal evidence of the Xinfeng magistrate's crime.

As for provoking civil unrest, who should be responsible?

Ha ha!

Naturally, the prince will take the blame.

Anyway, it's not the first time that the prince has taken the blame, so what's the harm in taking it again.

As long as the people below them eat and drink spicy food as usual.

Loyalty?

It is impossible to be loyal.

To repay the prince's kindness?

The prince will be the scapegoat for him, and he will naturally honor one or two.

In short, everything is up to the prince.

The magistrate of Xinfeng slapped the abacus, but ignored an important person, the inspector of the imperial censor.

When he was an inspector and censor, he had to eat dry rice, just eat and do nothing. He also came up with all kinds of ways to fool people.

However, he forgot that the battle for the succession of the capital had already heated up, so how could there be a censor who could eat dry rice at this time. Even if there is, Wu Shizhong will force the inspector to show his true skills.

The censor of the inspector made an unannounced visit, and before someone climbed up and called out, he took a good look at Xinfeng's bottom line.

Wu Shizhong sent a letter to Chen Jianzheng in the palace.

Chen Jianzheng was working, and the emperor finally remembered Wu Shizhong.

As a result, Wu Shizhong personally brought the imperial censor's memorial to Beijing to face the saint, intending to put the prince to death.

The Son of Heaven placed great importance on farming. He never imagined that such a tragic natural and man-made disaster had occurred in Xinfeng County, which was only a few hundred miles away from the capital. Even more terrifying, no one reported it for two years.

The emperor vented all this anger on the prince.

Kick the prince over with one kick.

Beast! How did I give birth to a beast like you, are you still worthy of being a human? Those are my people, and they are yours too. But if you condone officials to harm the people, you are tantamount to harming our country. You don't deserve to be a prince.

His Highness the Crown Prince kowtowed and pleaded guilty, My son neglected to check, my son is guilty, please punish the emperor.

Get out, get out of here and reflect on yourself. I'll take care of you later.

His Royal Highness kowtowed and thanked.

A maid came to His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness, please come this way.

The prince stood up, looked at the malicious servant, and left the hall with a calm expression.

He was imprisoned in a dilapidated side hall, only Fang Shaojian accompanied him.

The weather was hot, but the side hall was bitterly windy and rainy.

His Royal Highness was sweating all over his body, but he had no intention of changing his clothes.

He sat at the desk, frowning.

After being silent for a long time, he suddenly said, Master Xu must know what happened to Xinfeng, right?

Fang Shaojian bowed and said: Up and down the East Palace, inside and outside the court, there is nothing that Master Xu does not know.

The crown prince laughed, No wonder you all say that Gu knows people not knowing. Now it seems that Gu is not only ignorant, but blind and blind. Master Xu knows everything that happened in Xinfeng, but he hides it and does not report it. What is he thinking about? what?

Fang Shaojian said without emotion: They are a group of people who are lucky. They are counting on your Highness Prince to take the blame, but they can fill their own pockets, take the opportunity to make a fortune, and finally retreat.

Yeah? It turns out that in their eyes, there is only one way to take the blame.

His Royal Highness laughed at himself, I only know the truth now, is it too late?

Fang Shaojian shook his head, I don't forget. His Highness is still the Crown Prince. His Highness can make a decree to kill all the officials in the East Palace. Even if all those people are killed, none of them will be innocent.

His Royal Highness's expression changed, Is there really no one innocent?

Fang Shaojian nodded affirmatively, Exactly.

His Royal Highness the prince laughed, Gu is really not worthy to sit in the position of the prince. If Gu inherits the throne, I am afraid that the whole world will be ruined by the calamity of Gu. It is a pity that Gu has only seen the truth now. Gu but didn't hear a word?

His Highness the Crown Prince regretted it.

Fang Shaojian let out a sigh.

If you don't regret it five years ago, everything can be done.

If I had regretted it two years ago, it would have been too late.

If you regret it a year ago, you can still have a chance to turn the situation around.

I regret it now, it's too late, everything is too late.

Fang Shaojian felt worthless for Empress Ruizhen, but he was helpless.

After so many years of accumulation, His Majesty has completely abandoned the prince.

As long as the matter of Xinfeng is dealt with, the prince will be abolished.

Fang Shaojian stared sharply at His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness, as long as you make up your mind, everything is still in time.

He threw himself to the desk, like a dying man, trying to grab the last straw.

His Royal Highness said quietly, What do you want?

Fang Shaojian lowered his voice, Everything is according to plan.

yes?

The prince bowed his head and smiled, noncommittal.

Fang Shaojian has already made up his mind and must implement the plan.

This night is very long.

Inside and outside the palace, I don't know how many people have no intention of sleeping.

Late at night, a message was sent from Li Zhaoyi's bedroom.

I don't know how many people are happy and how many are worried.

The day is getting brighter, and the result everyone has been waiting for will finally come.

Inside the palace, many people held back their joy and exchanged glances with each other.

After so many years of hard work, the sky is finally about to change.

The Son of Heaven finally made up his mind.

The door to the side hall opened from the outside.

Your Majesty, please. Your Majesty summons you.

His Royal Highness did not sleep all night, and his eyes were bloodshot.

He changed into a clean blue robe and followed the servant to the face of the Holy Sun in Zhengyang Hall.

Fang Shaojian accompanied him.

When he came to Zhengyang Hall, His Royal Highness the Prince was not in a hurry to enter.

He first looked at the sky, then looked at the people around him, and there were many memories in his eyes.

In the end, he set his eyes on Fang Shaojian without saying a word, but everything was silent.

Fang Shaojian's expression moved slightly.

He shouted in his heart: Empress Empress, this old slave will not live up to your entrustment. Your Highness, you have to buy time for the old slave. This old slave is here to save you.

His Royal Highness the Prince walked into the hall with a calm expression to meet his fate.

The emperor looked at the prince, the father and son, looked at each other, and said nothing.

Since I ascended the throne, I have been trembling every day, and I dare not relax every day. I hope that the great Zhou Jiangshan will live forever. Therefore, I have established you as a prince and have high hopes for you. However, you have lived up to my expectations, time and time again. Once. I have given you countless opportunities, but you have become more and more unbearable. You are not worthy of being a king at all.

The crown prince bowed and said: My son is convicted of the crime. My son has been walking on thin ice for all these years, but he has never been able to be the true meaning of the king. He has mistaken himself, the government, and the father. Now the son is tired, please The royal father bestowed the death penalty on the sons and ministers.

The muscles on the emperor's face twitched, and he pointed at the prince and scolded, Are you trying to force you to death? I will never eat your way.

The prince raised his head and said boldly for the first time, My son will never dare to force him to death. Instead of making it difficult for my brothers to deal with me on other days, it is better for my father to simply give me a glass of poisonous wine and let my son end this life.

The emperor was furious, overturned the desk, the tea cup rolled off, and the tea splashed.

The prince is fearless.

The emperor sneered, If you want to die so much, I will fulfill you. I will give you poison, and I want you to live rather than die.

The prince looked sad, Does the father still hate the son and minister so much? Can the father and son be as gentle and reassuring to the son and minister as he did twenty years ago?

The emperor's eyes changed, What do you want to do?

The prince smiled bleakly, My son has been thinking about how to write and write when he was a child, and he taught him how to write, and he taught him how to write. It's a pity that I can never go back.

The Son of Heaven seems to be touched.

At this time, Xiaohuangmen brought tea.

The prince looked towards Xiao Huangmen, who lowered his head and avoided his sight.

The prince's heart moved, but he didn't make a sound.

The emperor picked up the teacup, but was not in a hurry to drink it.

The crown prince suddenly said, Could the royal father give my son a cup of tea?

The emperor said with a stern face, Give the prince a cup of tea.

My son wants to drink the tea from the royal father's hand.

Presumptuous! Do you even want my throne?

My son doesn't dare.

The emperor picked up the teacup and took a sip.

There was shock, fear, and anxiety in the eyes of the prince.

However, the emperor was safe and sound, and there was no poisoning scene as imagined.

The prince was surprised, could it be that he was wrong.

At this moment, Xiao Huangmen knelt on the ground to clean up the scattered documents and ink.

One of the little yellow gates squatted on the ground, and a metallic sheen flashed in his hands.

The prince was shocked, Father, be careful!

He took a few steps forward, blocking the emperor.

However, Xiao Huangmen had already taken out the dagger in his arms and stabbed it fiercely, stabbing it into the prince's belly.

The next second, the ordinary-looking Xiao Huangmen directly killed himself by biting the poison, vomiting black blood, and fell to the ground with no breath.

In the hall, everyone panicked and ran to the emperor and surrounded him.

Catch the assassin, catch the assassin!

The prince grabbed the handle of the dagger, leaned against the table, and fell slowly.

Blood slowly flowed from the wound.

Every time he took a breath, he felt a pain in his heart and it was extremely difficult. There was blood coming out of the corners of his mouth.

His Royal Highness looked at the roof, he was about to die.

The poison was quenched on the dagger, and he was dead.

Unexpectedly, Fang Shaojian did not arrange for poisoning, but arranged for assassination.

Also, how can the poison be so easy to put down.

A cup of tea was delivered to the royal father, and I don't know how many times it had to be checked.

Only by hiding the dagger on the body can it be possible to evade search. As long as you get close to the father, you have the opportunity to assassinate.

Fang Shaojian, Fang Shaojian, Gu can be regarded as saving you once.

This time, if you can survive, run for your life. Don't stay in Beijing.

The imperial physician, call the imperial physician.

The emperor pushed everyone away and came to the prince.

He raised the crown prince's head with his own hands and said solemnly, I ordered someone to save you, so you can't die.

The crown prince shook his head slightly and said with difficulty: Father, father and emperor, my son and minister have something to ask for.

you say.

I beg the royal father to let go of the wives and children of the sons and ministers and allow them to live.

The emperor nodded solemnly, I'm sure. Where's the imperial physician, why hasn't the imperial physician come yet?

The emperor roared, and the palace servants hurriedly urged.

The whole hall is filled with people.

The prince used all his strength to reach out and grab the emperor's sleeve, Father, I have something to ask of you.

Say! I promise you all.

The prince said laboriously; My son, Suxi, all the officials of the East Palace, please ask your father for the permission of the emperor to ask all the officials above the seventh grade of the East Palace to be buried with you, so that the children and ministers can listen to the truth of the sages every day.

Everyone changed color.

The emperor looked dignified and looked at the prince responsibly, Okay, I promise you. I have all the officials above the seventh rank of the East Palace buried with me, and no one can be spared.

The prince smiled and said with all his strength, My son thanked the father and the emperor. If the son is gone, the father and the emperor will not have to be embarrassed.

As soon as the voice fell, the prince took his last breath.

He was dying.

The emperor suddenly felt a pain in his heart, raised his hand, and closed his eyes for the prince himself.

The prince was smiling when he was dying.

The emperor looked sad, and kept holding the prince without letting go.

Everyone in the hall, seeing this scene, no one dared to persuade.

The imperial doctor was long in coming, so he could only kneel down and apologize.

The minister of civil and military affairs and the royal family hurried over when they heard the news.

Seeing this scene, they were all shocked.

Prince is dead?

The prince is dead!

The prince died for the emperor to block the assassins.

How is this good?

Wu Shizhong knelt on the ground, and when he saw this scene, his heart was filled with hatred.

After so many years of planning, so many years of hard work, it was all destroyed by the death of the prince.

The prince really deserved to die, and it was too time for him to die.

He looked at Chen Jianzheng.

Chen Jian swayed his finger slightly.

The prince fulfilled his father-son relationship with His Majesty with his death, and the prince was moved.

This move of the prince is really brilliant.

Who was the master who directed the prince?

There are many ways a person can die.

The prince wisely chose the most valuable way to die.

Wu Shi and the others, just called Naihe.
