I can't die

Chapter 24 Prince Gong's Lost Son

This incident happened in Prince Gong's house, from the emperor's two palaces to the empress dowagers, down to all the officials working under the command of the Military Aircraft Department, I'm afraid none of them felt comfortable after knowing about it.

However, Xia Changping was obviously different from the civil and military men of the Manchu Dynasty.Why do you think?

I really answered the sentence "I finally waited for you, but luckily I didn't give up."

However, the sticky poles of Lama Temple have been in a state of semi-shelving since Emperor Jiaqing, and have rarely been reused. Therefore, the scale has been cut down over the years. There are only 20 people left.The Xia family, as the heads of the sticky poles, naturally had a lower and lower status. In the last years of Xianfeng, they were basically free-range. If it weren't for the royal family, they still remembered the achievements of the Xia family's ancestors, and they were afraid of the salaries of these people. A lot will be deducted.

Xia Changping was in the Lama Temple (the Lama Temple had been transformed into a Tibetan temple since the Qianlong period), chatting about Buddhism with the lamas in those palaces, when he suddenly heard a eunuch suddenly visit at the door, thinking that It was an ordinary palace official who came to Lama Temple to purchase, and he didn't care. He was still sitting on the futon of Falun Hall, holding Buddhist beads in his hand, and chanted Buddhist scriptures there, until he heard that it was the imperial eunuch who passed the imperial decree. Called, it was like waking up from a dream and rushing into the palace with great joy.

To say that this is Xia Changping’s second meeting with the emperor Zai Chun since Xianfeng Tuogu, it is quite exciting, especially hearing what Zai Chun explained in his language, which is related to a prince who discusses politics, is even more painful. Dao Huo Huo, almost jumping up with joy.

Finally gave Lao Tzu a chance to show his talents.

According to the rules of his ancestors, Xia Changping got the oracle from Zai Chun face to face, and relative to the unspoken rules, he got the privilege of "doing things cheaply", so he happily jumped towards Prince Gong's mansion immediately.

Happy?

Indeed, you read that right, when Prince Gong had just lost his two sons, Xia Changping's heart was so excited that it couldn't be more exciting.

So, Xia Changping came to Prince Gong's Mansion with such a surge of emotion.

Prince Gong's Mansion was first built in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. It was the private residence of He Shen, a scholar in the Qianlong period.He Shen was named the number one corrupt official in the Qing Dynasty. He collected rare treasures from all over the world and hired countless master craftsmen to build the mansion, which can be seen.

Xia Changping presented the name card to Prince Gong's servants, and Prince Gong summoned him into the palace.

The first half of Prince Gong's Mansion is a magnificent mansion, and the second half is a deep and beautiful classical garden, covering a total area of ​​nearly [-] square meters.The mansion is solemn and solemn, elegant and simple, with bright corridors leading to the ridge, and magnificent, second only to the palace where the emperor lived.

It was also the first time for Xia Changping to enter Prince Gong's Mansion, and he was quite shocked by the sight in front of him.Following the servants, I came all the way to Cuijin Garden behind the mansion. I can see that the garden is surrounded by water and mountains, with towering ancient trees, winding corridors and pavilions, which is magnificent and natural; A model of architecture.

"Slave Xia Changping has seen Prince Gong."

Because of Xia Changping's special status, he came here on behalf of the emperor, so he didn't kneel down and salute.

"It was Dudu Xia. It is my honor to be loved by the emperor."

Yi, however, was not the case. He kneeled three times and kowtowed nine times in the direction of the Forbidden City before getting up.

Everyone met each other, and Xia Changping got such a rare job, so he hurriedly asked Prince Gong about the situation of Prince Gong's third and fourth sons.

Prince Gong suppressed the grief in his heart at the moment, looked at Xia Changping who had a strange look in his eyes, and couldn't help but feel a "thud" in his heart, always feeling that there was something strange about it.

"This king has four sons in total, all born of Da Fujin. The third son is three years old. The fourth son and the third son were born only one year apart. The second son was born close to Fujin, so both of them have insufficient fetal strength. It's just that Fujin and I regard him as It is a treasure, since I was a child, I have been constantly tonic. The former imperial physician said that as long as I raise it for another year, I can raise it back. I never thought... hey. White-haired people give black-haired people."

When the child was two or three years old, it was the age when he loved to move and have fun, and the two elder brothers who died were born on the same day. As Prince Gong spoke, he seemed to think of his own child's voice, showing concern.

Xia Changping hurriedly stepped forward to appease Prince Gong, while persuading Prince Gong to mourn, while passing Prince Gong's family property aside in his heart.Since ancient times, the death of a child, like this kind of sudden death, is often the cause of fire in the backyard in the royal family, but Prince Gong's family has only one Dafujin, who is the daughter of the Minister of the Household Department, the scholar Guiliang, (this is also the reason) The reason why Guiliang and Prince Gong control the household department together).Obviously, it is untenable for wives and concubines to fight for favor and harm their offspring.However, Prince Gong himself said that these two children are almost raised, and this sudden death, is it really a matter of days?

"Can Rong Chen go and see the corpses of the two young elder brothers?"

Prince Gong knew the skills of these blood drops, and he wanted to see if there was anything tricky about it, so he took Xia Changping to the place where the two younger elder brothers were buried. Church.

Jiale Hall is the place of worship in Prince Gong's residence. There are tablets of ancestors and gods in it. Normally, people are not allowed to enter. Because the second son who passed away was very fond of him, they were specially allowed here. Stop working.

Xia Changping walked to the two small coffins in the middle of the Jiale Hall, and leaned over to carefully examine the corpses of the two little elder brothers.He asked again: "Can I allow this servant to touch the bodies of the two elder brothers?"

Prince Gong allowed it.

At that moment, Xia Changping picked up the corpse, rolled his eyelids, and saw that the eyeballs of the two little elder brothers were loose, obviously they seemed to have been dead for a while, and when he looked at the lips, they were pale, and it was indeed the color that only the dead would show. .

Everything seems to be no different from ordinary death.

Could it be God's will?

At that moment, Xia Changping looked up and down again with his eyes wide open, and even touched the little elder brother's neck, heart, abdomen and other important organs with his hands carefully, and there were no special wounds.Please don't doubt the eyesight of the person at the sticky pole. These blood droplets have been tempered since childhood, and the lines on the wings of flies can be clearly seen at a glance. After repeated inspections, they didn't even see a pinhole.

strangeness.

Xia Changping stroked the little elder brother's mouth with both hands, and gently pried it open, only to see that the little elder brother had a piece of jade as white as frost and as cold as ice in his mouth.This further deepened Xia Changping's suspicion.

Do you know why?

The blame is on the jade that the little elder brother said.

Many people in the royal family like to place jade in the mouths of prominent people.These jade stones not only have the function of symbolizing status, but also are convenient, and can greatly delay the speed of oxidation and decay of corpses.

This was where Xia Changping was puzzled.

Obviously, the two little elder brothers reported their death not long ago, and they also had high-quality burial jade in their mouths. How could the mouths of these two little elder brothers turn white so quickly?No blood at all?Is it the same as the person who died almost past the end of the seventh day?

"My lord, these two little elder brothers, don't they look right?"

Prince Gong felt that his palace was protected by him, and there was no chaos in the house. He didn't think that the two children would die unexpectedly, but since the blood droplet's personal guards came, it was not easy to let him go empty-handed. But he returned, so he allowed him to do an autopsy. He didn't think about it, did he really see something wrong?

"What? You just say it's okay?"

So, Xia Changping told Yi all his doubts in detail, and when Yi heard it, after thinking about it, it was indeed as weird as Xia Changping said, and the sadness that filled his heart turned into anger!

"Master Xia, what kind of trick do you think this is?"

Prince Gong even changed his address to Xia Changping as an honorific title.

"It seems to be poisoned. I have a guess, but I can't make a conclusion. If the prince allows it, please call the imperial doctor."
