miscalculation

Xiao Liang stayed in the palace for three days, but he didn't see Xiao Yi summoning him, so he was suspicious, so he sent someone to find Zhang Leshi, the head of the imperial court.He knew that Zhang Leshi had followed Xiao Yi for nearly 20 years, so he must know the reason.

Zhang Leshi was a little embarrassed, and after saluting, he said: "His Royal Highness, don't worry, Long Live Lord is in a bad mood these days, if there is anything wrong, it's better to move back. The old slave can't stay too long, and I hope His Highness will forgive me." .”

Seeing him like this, Xiao Liang didn't force him to ask, he just said: "I heard that my father has been away from court for three days and stayed alone in the Lihua Pavilion, driving you all out. Eunuch Zhang, when my father came to see me that day, what did you do?" Very energetic. If my king remembers correctly, since the beginning of Yanqi's dynasty, Empress Jiayuan has passed away, and there has never been a case of dismissing the dynasty. What happened in Lihua Pavilion? Could it be related to Mo Xuan's suicide?"

Zhang Leshi knelt on the ground and said: "Your Highness, you still don't want to embarrass this old slave, just wait here patiently."

Xiao Liang said: "I don't make things difficult for you, I just heard that the ladies in the palaces, the courtiers, and the king of Liang were all turned away when they asked to see the father. You don't need to report now, just take the king to see the father in person. He blames it, and this king also bears it."

Zhang Leshi was quite helpless, and said: "Your Highness, listen to the old slave's advice, don't disturb His Majesty at this time, otherwise I'm afraid it will ruin your business."

Xiao Liang knew that Zhang Leshi had served Xiao Yi for many years, so he naturally understood that it was Yun Zhao that he invited.But what he is more worried about now is Xiao Yi. According to his understanding of his father, how could he lock himself in the room for three days if he hadn't encountered a great accident?

He didn't say any more, just said: "If you don't want to lead me to go, then I will go by myself." He raised his foot and walked to Lihua Pavilion, the palace people did not dare to stop him, but knelt on the ground trembling .

Ever since Xiao Yi ordered the death of everyone in Huquan Palace, no one in the palace dared to disrespect Xiao Liang, but this time he wanted to trespass into Lihua Pavilion and provoked Long Yan's fury, the unlucky ones were their servants.

Xiao Liang walked to that door, pushed it open, and saw Xiao Yi sitting beside the bed holding a porcelain altar.Three days ago, when the father and son met, the Son of Heaven was still in good spirits, but now most of his hair is gray, he looks like an old man.

Seeing him coming in, Xiao Yi remained motionless, and only shouted: "Get out!"

Xiao Liang closed the door, knelt forward from the door, moved a little to Xiao Yi's legs in front of the bed, and then said: "Father, please calm down, my son doesn't know what happened to make you so sad. I heard that anger and worry It hurts the body the most, but as a son of man, I really can't bear my father's self-suffering. No matter how you punish, Feng Mian will not leave here, and only wants to stay by my father's side until you are willing to eat."

Xiao Yi said: "You are here for Yun Zhao, I will decree to let him live. You have fulfilled your wish, so go out and don't disturb me here."

Xiao Liang shook his head and said: "Father, you have loved Erchen since childhood. It is Feng Mian who is not filial. For Yun Zhao, you keep threatening to die. But in the eyes of Erchen, Father is more important than anyone else. Seeing you like this , how can you turn a blind eye and leave with peace of mind?"

Xiao Yi smiled miserably and said: "Speaking of it, you are a child who understands the principles of human relationships better than your father. You will do everything possible to save the life of the person you love, but your father can only watch him die before his eyes."

Xiao Liang glanced at the porcelain altar in his arms, couldn't help but startled, and didn't know how to speak for a while.He held back for a long time before he said: "Father, the dead cannot be brought back to life. You are the master of my Eastern Tomb, so you must not be too sad to damage the dragon's body."

Xiao Yi said: "Feng Mian, tell Father honestly, where did Yun Zhao's Sky Swallowing Toad come from? Did you know beforehand?"

Xiao Liang saw that his expression had changed, so he guessed that Tiantianchan's matter was of great importance, and after much deliberation, he decided to speak out.He said: "In the past, I was ordered to go to Lizhou to visit my elder brother because he was poisoned by Gu poison, but in fact, I also have Gu poison on my body."

Xiao Yi raised his head suddenly, looked at him and said, "Is this really true? What's going on here?"

Xiao Liang said: "That day, my son accidentally fell into the Taiye Pond. Hearing what Master Jingkong said, he was poisoned by a poison called Tianxianzui. With Master Jingkong's skillful hand, although he detoxified the poison, he was sent by the imperial concubine Chen. The poison of vegetables and fruits from here. The name of the poison is Baikucao, and it was suppressed in the body at that time, but it did not occur in Lizhou by chance. Dare not lie to the father, Yun Zhao's teacher has a relationship with Mo Xuan I was implicated because he was originally a bodyguard of the royal father, and he fell in love with his son at first sight. Later, he only focused on his son, so seeing that I had been poisoned, he went to Bie Ling Mountain, where Mo Xuan lived, to steal Heaven-swallowing toad. This is how my son and elder brother were cured of the poison."

Xiao Yi was even more surprised, and asked: "It turned out to be Concubine Liu Chen? Why didn't you report such an important matter earlier?"

Xiao Liang said: "That day in the palace, the son and minister had no evidence in hand, and when his mother and concubine died of illness, he really didn't dare to speak up, for fear that the concubine Chen would do something wrong again. Later, it took a long time for the poison to occur, and it was in Li Zhou is not in the palace, so how can you talk about Concubine Chen? That is to say, there is no evidence, even if the father believes it, he can't be punished. If she bites back and says that my son framed her, how can I justify it? So son Simply keep silent, the poison is cured anyway.”

Xiao Yi thought in his heart: I only knew that Mo Xuan had been stared at, but I didn't expect Concubine Chen to have such a means.I'm afraid that the two are involved, and now only Yunxiang knows the inside story.

Xiao Yi gently put down the porcelain altar, helped Xiao Liang to sit by the bed, and said, "It's the emperor's incompetence that made you suffer so much. It's just such a big matter of poisoning the prince, how can we hide it?" Don’t report it? There are clues to investigate everything, how can you be sure that your father will be deceived and cannot uphold justice for you!”

What Xiao Liang said just now is true or not, not all the facts, thinking that Xiao Yunxiang snatched melons and fruits for himself in the past, but now he is incompatible, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Xiao Yi said: "My son, you come with me."

Xiao Yi walked to the table, poured half a cup of tea, bit his finger and dripped blood, and asked Xiao Liang to do the same.Xiao Liang was very surprised, so he did the same.

Seeing the fusion of the two bloods, Xiao Yi sighed in his heart: "It seems that what you said is true."

Xiao Liang was puzzled, and said: "Father, this is a way to recognize your relatives with blood? Could it be that Father thinks that Feng Mian is not your emperor's son?"

Xiao Yi waved his hand and said: "That's not the case. Feng Mian, you don't know something. General Gu obtained a treasure when he defeated the Erhai royal family. This thing can resist all kinds of poisons, even the most powerful Gu poison in southern Xinjiang can't enter the body. At the beginning, I was afraid that there would be remnants of the Erhai Lake mixed into the capital, which would be bad for me, so Gu Zhao specially offered it. After I took it, the blood in my body changed, and even my parents and children couldn't get along. You have been poisoned by Gu, and some remnants will remain in your body. So Your blood can fuse with mine, so it can be seen that what you said is true."

Xiao Liang was taken aback, he didn't expect to have this joint, and then he understood why neither Yun Zhao nor Mo Xuan ever tried to poison Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi said: "In the case of Yun Zhao, death is inevitable, but life is inevitable. I ordered him to escape for three hours, and then hunt him down. If he can't escape, he can't blame me."

Xiao Liang knew that after Yun Zhao was tortured, he would not be able to go too far because he was exhausted, so he wanted to say more, but Xiao Yi waved his hand.

He said: "Yun Zhao has a relationship with Mo Xuan, so he has to guard against it. You value love and righteousness, that's a good thing, but father wants you to go further and one day enter the East Palace, then this person will stay I will never be by your side."

Hearing this, Xiao Liang was quite surprised, and said: "Father! This... Qin Xin didn't sign the letter before, saying that my son conspired with him to assassinate you. I have confessed to this matter, how can you ignore it?"

Xiao Yi laughed loudly and said: "Although I am suspicious, I firmly believe in my own vision. Speaking of which, out of the seven princes, six of them killed their fathers and kings, and I also believe that you will definitely not do this! If you do the same , That’s me being a father in vain, and dying at the hands of my own flesh and blood, it’s not uncommon for the emperor’s family.”

Xiao Liang could hear the desolate meaning in his laughter, he quickly knelt down and said, "Please take care of your father, please don't think so."

Xiao Yi said: "Feng Mian, you step back. I will go to interrogate Qin Xin tomorrow, and I will order Yunzhao to be released for three hours, and you will be authorized to find someone to help him, but you must not go out in person. I want to see my Xiaoqi, Without the help of my father, how much help can I have, and how much can I do."

Xiao Liang said: "Thank you, father! Xiao Qi is still a young phoenix, and I beg my father to protect me. I hope you take care of yourself."

Xiao Yi said: "You step back, I know how to measure."

Xiao Liang went out of the room, hurriedly pulled Zhang Leshi, and ordered some porridge and side dishes to be brought over.Xiao Yi had been starving for several days, so he had to summon the imperial physician to secretly prepare nourishing food and put it in the meal.

He left the palace gate, went straight to Doctor Jing's house, and went to look for Pei Shang, not wanting to lose everything.He returned to the mansion, found almost all the attendants, and opened the map of Beijing to check it again and again.In the middle of the night, Pei Shang suddenly jumped over the wall and shouted, "What's going on with you and Yun Zhao?"

Xiao Liang saw that he was overjoyed, he quickly hugged him, and said: "My Mr. Pei, Pei's savior, you are here! Don't gossip, come and help me!"

Pei Shang was hugged and hugged by him with a dull expression, seeing him dancing and dancing for a long time, only then did he understand what happened.
