Better to live forever [Rebirth]

The emperor's illness came without warning.

That day, the emperor convened the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Households to discuss the terms of the agreement drawn up by the Ministry of Households. He returned to Zhengyang Palace to have a meal at night. Blood vomited into the bowl, and the blood gushed out of his mouth as if it couldn't be stopped, the porridge bowl slipped from his hand and fell to the ground, staining the dragon robe.

"His Majesty!"

The eunuch Dongsheng screamed in horror, and all the palace servants with downcast eyebrows hurriedly raised their heads. Before they could see the situation clearly, they heard the eunuch Dongsheng screaming to call for the imperial physician.Anshou showed up with the on-duty dark guard, and quickly asked his subordinates to capture the on-duty imperial physician as quickly as possible.

Emperor Zhenyuan's pupils dimmed for a moment, he tightly grasped the eunuch Dongsheng's hand, opened his mouth to say something, but a mouthful of blood came out.He stared unwillingly at Eunuch Dongsheng, who burst into tears, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty! You will be fine... This old slave understands, this old slave will ask someone to bring the third master to see you!"

Emperor Zhenyuan let go of his hand, and let it go in a forced breath, and his eyes were dark.

The dark guard directly broke into Zhenbeihou's mansion and took away Gu Chao'an. He was surrounded by elite soldiers personally trained by Zhu Dingbei, who immediately stopped the dark guard.The leader was An Yi, there was no time to delay, he knelt down and said: "Third Master, Your Majesty... Please!"

Gu Chaoan's face changed drastically, "He..." He had a bad guess in his heart and couldn't believe it.

Dark nodded.

Gu Chao'an was stunned, and after a while he clenched his fists and said softly, "I'll go with you."

When Zhu Dingbei and Ning Heng received the news, the emperor was still in a coma, and they did not wake up when they arrived in the capital.Ning Heng didn't dare to delay, separated from Zhu Dingbei at the city gate and went straight to the palace.

All the imperial physicians from Mantai Hospital knelt outside Zhengyang Palace and waited for orders, and even Dr. Duan and others from Changxinhou's Mansion were invited.When Ning Heng arrived, Dr. Duan was giving the emperor the injection. Ning Heng saw the emperor's expression and knew something was wrong. When Dr. Duan finished the injection, he asked in a low voice, "How is the situation?"

"Master Hou..."

"Don't be too polite."

Doctor Duan just saw him coming, subconsciously wanted to salute, but Ning Heng stopped him, urging him to explain the situation.Apart from Doctor Duan, eunuch Dongsheng and Gu Chao'an were in the room. The emperor was in critical condition and no one else was allowed to enter the palace. Ning Heng might not have been able to enter if it wasn't for the golden orders of the Patriarch of the Ning family.

Doctor Duan: "Your Majesty, this is..."

"Tell the truth, don't keep it."

"Your Majesty has been poisoned. This poison is called Qingjun, and it was lost hundreds of years ago."

Qingjun, just like its name, only works on men, but it can play a role in recuperating and improving when women take it.However, Qingjun is colorless and odorless, and will not attack immediately after taking it. The toxin is latent for six to ten days. After the poison occurs, black blood will be vomited at the mouth first.

And just as Dr. Duan said, Qingjun's formula was lost hundreds of years ago. More importantly, it has never been heard that Qingjun has an antidote, and no one has prepared an antidote!

After listening to Mrs. Dong Sheng, his legs became weak, and he knelt on the ground and began to cry. Ning Heng looked at him sharply, "How did Your Majesty get poisoned?"

"Since I was summoned by the Marquis four days ago, the servants of His Majesty have carefully checked the food and clothing. If it was six to ten days ago..."

Doctor Duan interrupted: "Your Majesty has suffered from poisoning, and his physique is worse than that of ordinary people. Under such circumstances, it is not impossible to have an early onset."

The eunuch Dongsheng suddenly thought of something, and said with a pale face: "Mr. Duan, you just let it go and said that this poison is only for men..." He swallowed hurriedly, "Three days ago, the Empress Dowager...had a banquet for Your Majesty. There are concubines... the old slave also heard from the harem that the empress's complexion has improved a little in the past two days, will it... no, no... the old slave..."

The eunuch Dongsheng spoke incoherently.

Ning Heng was shocked, and said: "I will arrange this matter, don't publicize it."

He turned around and went out, whispered some instructions to Uncle Ning, who was guarding outside the hall, and the latter left in response.When he returned to the palace, Doctor Duan had already stepped back. No one had prepared an antidote for the poison of Qingjun since its inception. Although they were working hard, according to the emperor's body, that day might not be possible. Doctor Duan could only use acupuncture to stop the poison Diffusion, buy time for His Majesty the Emperor as much as possible.

The eunuch Dongsheng carefully wiped the emperor's sweat, Ning Heng looked away from His Majesty's face and looked at Gu Chao'an.

The latter was a bit dull, and it took him a while to come back to his senses. He showed him a forced smile, and said in a low voice, "Is Changsheng coming back with you? Is he okay?"

"He's all right, don't worry, uncle."

"……That's good."

Gu Chaoan murmured, his eyes drifted back to the emperor, which made him a little distracted.His face was pale and his eyes were dull. It could be seen that he hadn't touched the pillow in the past two days, and he couldn't tell whether it was worry or some emotion, but he just didn't want to sleep.It seemed that this was the first time he saw the emperor so weak, no matter when this person was always invincible, he never thought that one day he would fall down, and his life was at stake.

He couldn't tell what it was like, he seemed to have thought about it a lot, and he seemed to be unable to remember anything.

After half an hour, Uncle Ning returned.

"Patriarch, it has been confirmed that except for the sixth prince, the other four princes have all been poisoned by the emperor."

Only then did Ning Heng realize what Yu Deng meant by the end.He frowned and then quickly let go. He is a very realistic person. Things have come to this. As the head of the Ning family, he has too many things to do.

He calmly said: "Blocking the news, letting people privately give or receive speculative words must be put an end to it. Let people tell Changsheng, and send people to guard the sixth prince closely, there must be no difference!"

"Subordinates obey."

Ning Heng glanced back at the main hall of Zhengyang Palace, and said, "Take care of Your Majesty, I'll go to the Palace of Compassion."

"Homeowner..."

Uncle Ning wanted to stop him, but Ning Heng sighed softly, "As the Ning family, no matter what your status is, if you endanger the royal family and endanger the country, I should clean up the family."

In the Cining Palace.

The seriously ill Empress Dowager was sleeping peacefully at night, Ning Heng quietly stepped into the Empress Dowager's bedroom, and grabbed the Empress Dowager's pulse, and the latter woke up: "Who is it!"

Aunt Qiyu who was guarding the outer room and the palace people in the outer hall did not respond at all, the queen mother knew something was wrong, she was about to struggle, but Ning Heng had already let go of him, walked two steps away and lit the candle.

"Aheng...why is it you?" The queen mother breathed a sigh of relief, quickly straightened her hair and clothes, straightened her back and frowned, and said, "Suye broke into the bedroom of Ai's family, and the etiquette of Lord Changxin was left behind." Isn’t the battlefield wild?”

Ning Heng stared at her, still not seeing any flaws in this woman's expression.

He whispered: "The queen mother should know why I came here. What is the first rule of the Ning family's family rules, does the queen mother remember?"

Empress Dowager Ning was stunned, "Chang Xinhou came here today as the head of the Ning family. The Ai family thought that your Ning family no longer recognized the identity of the Ai family. Heh, I don't know what the Ai family has committed. Family rules, the owner of the Lao family asked himself?"

"There's no need to pretend. Qingjun...the Empress Dowager should know what I'm talking about."

Empress Dowager Ning opened her mouth as if in astonishment. She never expected that the emperor would be poisoned in advance. Although the emperor has been dismissed for two days, the harem has been completely blocked by the emperor and turned into a pool of stagnant water. Such a big news, let alone the dying queen mother, is None of the empresses and empresses in the mother world have heard of it.

"I do not understand what you are saying."

Empress Dowager Ning denied it.

Ning Heng sneered silently, and soon this superfluous expression turned into indifference, and he looked at Queen Mother Ning quietly: "You are not seriously ill, you just poisoned yourself, a kind that can make people weaker and weaker, and finally fake death Poison to get away with. Am I right?"

Empress Dowager Ning frowned and looked at him, as if Ning Heng, whom she grew up watching, went crazy.

Ning Heng said to himself: "The first family rule of the Ning family is to protect the country. No matter who violates this family rule, death is inevitable. Although the empress dowager has a noble status, she cannot escape the family law. Since I came to you, It is to convict you, not to find evidence."

Empress Dowager Ning pursed her lips and remained silent.

"I just want to hear from you, why did you do this?"

The plan of feigning death was seen through, Empress Dowager Ning knew that she would not be able to escape death, immediately tore apart the graceful and luxurious place belonging to Empress Dowager Dajing, and said with a sneer, "Looking at Patriarch Ning's current appearance, my plan has succeeded, haha, I didn't expect the Emperor So useless!"

Qingjun's incubation period is six to ten days. In her plan, when the emperor poisons her, she is already the Empress Dowager Shengde who has entered the imperial mausoleum, and she has already feigned death to escape.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Zhenyuan was actually a strong outsider.

"You took refuge in Zhen Feihe?"

Ning Heng suddenly thought of this possibility, and a look of astonishment finally appeared in his normal eyes.

Seeing that Empress Dowager Ning did not deny it, Ning Heng's face changed drastically. He never thought that a noble daughter from the direct line of the Ning family and a daughter of the Ning family who was the empress dowager would be included under Zhen Feihe's command!He has doubted many people, but he has never doubted the Queen Mother, even though he has completely lost trust in Queen Ning.

Empress Dowager Ning laughed loudly, "Patriarch Ning's words are not entirely correct, because, from the beginning to the end, I am a member of Zhen Feihe."

"Isn't it incredible?" Empress Dowager Ning lowered her laughter, as if she was sighing: "It's such a coincidence in the world that I, a girl from a peasant family, looks like a noble girl from the Ning family. Zhen Feihe's parents raised me, and I work for them, and there is a cycle of cause and effect in this world, what do you think is the case, Lord Changxin?"

Ning Heng remained silent.

Originally, the first emperor and empress was not the "Queen Ning", but the daughter of the Ning family who was originally selected died suddenly, and the father of the "Queen Ning" voluntarily let his daughter have this honor and wealth, which made the "Queen Ning" ascend to the phoenix. bit.

He used to think that Empress Dowager Ning betrayed her relationship with Huiqing's childhood sweetheart, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

The real Empress Dowager Ning had long since passed away.
