Your Majesty has a white moonlight

"Eat [-] lychees a day, and never give up growing up as a Lingnan native."

When Yan Qinghe heard this, he hesitated to speak several times.He asked Chen Jinxing: "Have you really thought it through?"

The imperial court will send special personnel to Lingnan to punish the bandits, civilize the people, open trade routes, and transport products.No one wanted to go to that barren land, but Chen Jinxing took the initiative to invite Ying.Others may not understand why - who would remember where Zhao Hengfang's youngest son was?Even if he remembered, how could Chen Jinxing rush to get involved with the son of the criminal minister?It should be avoided.

But Yan Qinghe understood, so he felt that Chen Jinxing was crazy.

Chen Jinxing said: "It's okay to be a lychee, but why not be a human being?"

Yan Qinghe felt that he taught Chen Jin in vain in the past.Chen Jinxing knew that Yan Qinghe was for his own good, and said again: "It's not like staying there for a long time, but just do it for a while, and you will come back after the matter is done... I understand the reason."

Yan Qinghe was about to laugh angrily at him: "What if you can't come back? Is it so easy to come back after that place? Who will replace you? You have no relatives, no reason, no one to rely on, who will rescue you? Your family has suffered a lot. I have to give you pains to come out, and want you to honor your ancestors...but you are joking about it."

"Thank you, Brother Yan, for your teaching." Chen Jinxing said, "I have thought about it carefully. The teacher said that it is good to be able to take up the post and make achievements. It may not be a good thing for me to stay here."

The teacher he was talking about was Jing Mingzhao, the examiner.When Yan Qinghe heard that Jing Mingzhao took care of him, he was somewhat relieved, but he still sighed.

Chen Jinxing said again: "Second Brother Yan, I'm really afraid that he won't be able to hold on... I'm risking my future, but I'm afraid, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to see him again."

"Just laugh at me for being young and frivolous." Chen Jinxing lowered his head, "But I've made up my mind, and I won't regret it."

Yan Qinghe did think so.He is actually not a few years older than Chen Jinxing, but his mood is quite different.However, seeing Chen Jinxing's sincerity, he couldn't say anything to stop him.

This young man is lonely and courageous regardless of gains or losses. Is his affection sincere enough, or is he too ignorant and fearless because he has seen too little?

He sighed: "You go... If something really happens, I will try my best to help you."

Chen Jinxing gave him a deep bow, thanked him and said goodbye.

At the end of the year, all the ministries began to rush to work, and even Yan Qinghe was busy day and night.I rushed to the end of the twelfth lunar month, and the record was basically finished, and I only had to wait for the new year to repair the details.

Yan Qinghe got annual leave and went home for a long stay.He said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, see you next year."

The emperor said, "See you next year."

"Have a good year," he said.

"You too," said the emperor.

On the night of the New Year's Eve, singing and dancing, the lights are brightly lit.It was snowing heavily outside, and the crackling of firecrackers exploded the snow, and the flames soared into the sky, illuminating a corner of the night.

Bright and lively.It's not night, it's like day.

The banquet in the palace did not stop, and the music continued.Both charcoal fire and wine make people hot, and incense and wine make people intoxicated.

Not everyone is drinking, however.Empress Dowager Xiaoren is old and sick, she needs quiet.In her palace there is no noise, no banquets, only the bright lights, quiet and quiet.

After the first prince passed away, she was devastated and ignored ordinary things.The emperor treated her very well after he ascended the throne, and she only shrank in the palace and prayed to Buddha.Now she is not in good health, and she usually rests early at this time, but perhaps the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year has infected her, the Queen Mother is actually very energetic today.

She said she wanted to see the prince, so the emperor asked the prince to pay her New Year's greetings.

She couldn't be disturbed by too many people, only one of the prince's closest maids accompanied him to see the queen mother.The prince walked into the queen mother's palace. He rarely came here and was not familiar with it.

Perhaps he had just left a lively banquet, and he felt that it was too quiet here, a little weirdly quiet.It was hot in the room, but there was no fragrance.

The queen mother was lying on the bed with a loving smile on her old face: "Son, come closer and let me see you."

The prince approached as he said, and the queen mother stretched out a withered and thin hand to hold his hand.It was so hot in the room, but the Queen Mother's hands were not warm, but they were not cold, like wood.The Queen Mother smiled affectionately, and held him with a wooden hand. He was not used to it, but it was not easy to avoid it.

The queen mother said: "I haven't seen you for a long time..."

The Empress Dowager asked the court lady to bring a plate of dim sum, which was small but delicious, and there were various varieties. On a blooming peony in the middle of the porcelain plate, there was the crown prince's favorite milk skin pine nut cake.

"Good boy, have something to eat."

The prince picked a piece of snack and held it in his hand.The queen mother said: "Good boy, eat, you eat, grandma is happy."

The prince had eaten enough just now, but the queen mother was too kind, so he took a bite anyway.The withered skin on the Empress Dowager's face also smiled, and she kept rubbing the Prince's hand with her hands.

The prince was holding the piece of pine nut cake in his hand. He held it too hard, and the crumbs of the pastry kept falling to the ground.He wants to go.

As soon as he went out, the prince quietly threw the piece of snack in the grass, and wiped his hands desperately with a handkerchief.He doesn't like it here, he doesn't want to come here again.

After the first break of the banquet, the end game will be withdrawn.It was the deepest time of night, and the people who were tired from playing had just rested for a long time.If you wait until dawn, the whole city will be a bright red color, which is the most festive and auspicious day of the year.

However, the people in the palace could not sleep well.When the prince returned home, he said that he was not feeling well, but he thought it was because he had eaten too much food.After a while, he actually vomited, and the vomiting and diarrhea became more and more serious, as if he had eaten something bad.So in the middle of the night, a large group of imperial physicians were passed over, and they first prescribed antiemetic prescriptions, gathered together, and diagnosed again and again.

It's the same food in the palace, how come the people around are all good, but why did the prince spoil it?

After a long time, the imperial doctors came to a conclusion: it should be poisoned.It was supposed to have vomiting and diarrhea until he died of dehydration and exhaustion, but fortunately, the dosage was not enough to prevent his life.

The room was dead silent.The emperor's face was sullen, his eyes were half down, and he didn't say a word.Liu Shan asked softly: "Have you made a clear diagnosis? Can you think about it again?"

The leading imperial physician replied: "** is not far from ten."

So the palace was immediately sealed off, and all the people in the imperial dining room were controlled, including all the serving, serving, and court ladies and eunuchs who had been in contact with the prince, and no one was searched.However, at this time, the leftovers have been cleaned up, and the dishes and chopsticks have also been cleaned, so it is difficult to verify one by one.

Concubine Zhao Gui heard that the prince's life was safe, and suddenly felt that she would survive the catastrophe.She was very nervous at the moment, her mind was exceptionally clear, but she appeared extremely calm.She went to an empty room alone, and called Concubine Hui again.

Concubine Hui heard that the prince suddenly fell ill, but she didn't know it was poisoning.However, she also felt that something was wrong, so she hugged her baby and coaxed her for a while.When she heard Concubine Zhao call her suddenly, she suddenly felt ominous, reluctantly put down the child, looked back for a few more times before leaving.

At this moment, the palace is strictly guarded, and it was Concubine Zhao who personally explained that Concubine Hui was let in.The room was not very bright, Concubine Hui asked cautiously: "Sister, what's the matter? Is the prince better?"

Concubine Zhao first told her to sit down, and then said slowly, "The crown prince has been poisoned."

Concubine Hui was shocked and speechless: "Then, then..."

Concubine Zhao Guifei smiled but said, "Fortunately, God blesses you, if you use it less, it will be fine."

Concubine Hui covered her heart and murmured: "That's good, that's good..."

"The palace is investigating right now," Concubine Zhao said, "Who in the world poisoned me has not been found out yet."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Concubine Hui quietly.Of course Concubine Hui understood what Concubine Zhao wanted to say, her face showed panic: "What do you mean, sister?"

Concubine Zhao still didn't speak, Concubine Hui hurriedly argued, "Sister, it's really not me!"

Concubine Zhao took a sip of tea unhurriedly before saying, "You know that the emperor likes a man...Maybe from now on, there will be no other heirs. If the crown prince is gone, then...it's time soon Have you seen your rhinoceros?"

Concubine Hui was startled and anxious, and knelt in front of Concubine Zhao Gui: "Sister, it's not me, it's really not me! How dare I touch the crown prince, how could I fight with my sister! If you don't believe me, you, you, I You can search whatever you want in the palace!"

Concubine Zhao gently put down Concubine Hui's hand on her lap, and said, "I'm already searching."

Concubine Hui cried bitterly at Concubine Zhao's feet: "My sister never believed me... I swear to heaven, if I did it, Xi'er, me, my whole family, all of them, would die a terrible death! How can my sister want me to prove my innocence?" What? My sister is willing to die to show her ambition, but I am afraid that Xi'er will be left alone in the world, alone and helpless... How can my sister trust me?"

"What do I want your life for?" Concubine Zhao reached out and touched the top of Concubine Hui's hair, "If the truth comes out, of course you will be innocent. But before that, I can't trust you."

Concubine Hui was trembling from crying, Concubine Zhao smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, without evidence, I will not touch you, nor will I touch your child."

In the midst of the turmoil, the deepest part of the deep palace, the quietest place, came the news: the empress dowager died.
