Jade of Rebirth

On the way back home, Yuli couldn't help but take out the jade pendant that Jinfenggou gave him and examine it carefully.

This piece of jade is indeed a high-quality piece of jade, but the pattern is somewhat familiar. He always feels as if he has seen it somewhere before... Jin Fenggou specially came to wait for him on the way. On the one hand, it may be to test whether his hysteria is real. On the other hand... Yuli always feels that he has ulterior motives, and the gift of this jade should not be so simple.

Since he can be sure that Yuan Ying is not from their side, then as Yuan Ying's bedside person, Jin Fenggou is definitely not a good person...

Back at the palace, Yuan Heng was already there, his appearance was quite different from usual... He sat there with his brows locked, with a sad expression on his face, when he saw Yu Li coming, he went up to him and said:

"Li'er..."

Yu Li's heart sank, and he asked with concern: "What's wrong?" Yuan Heng rarely had such a time, and he couldn't help but have a bad premonition.

Sure enough, Yuan Heng said: "Li'er, father's illness has worsened..."

"How could this be?" Yu Li was shocked, "Didn't it get better earlier? Why did it get worse? What did the imperial doctor say?"

Yuan Heng shook his head slowly: "The imperial doctor said that it was chronic poisoning, and the toxicity was smoldering, and now it is powerless to recover..."

"Then why didn't you notice it before?" Yu Li asked, "Besides, Zhao Yuan is your man, he has been serving you all the time, so he should be aware of it, why did it deteriorate without warning?"

Seeing Yu Li getting excited, Yuan Heng stretched out his hand to hold him and let him sit down beside him, and then said: "Because the poison is very bad, it was hidden in the body before, and once he took the medicine tonic, it suddenly exploded...Father This morning, I vomited blood again, and this time it was black blood... The imperial doctor said that this is a sign that the poison has invaded the five internal organs."

"Then what should I do?" Yu Li also started to worry, he didn't have deep feelings for Emperor Zhang Wu, but he was Yuan Heng's father, and he had always treated Yuan Heng kindly, and Yuan Heng also had deep father-son affection for him, He naturally didn't want to see Yuan Heng sad.Secondly, now is the critical moment of the situation in the court, if something happens to Emperor Zhang Wu, the next situation will be good or bad, they are hard to predict.

"I just hate that I don't know medical skills..." Yuan Heng shook his head and sighed, "Now we can only rely on the imperial physician, we have to take a step at a time."

Yuli thought about it too, as the saying goes, "Sickness comes like a mountain, and sickness goes like a thread", not to mention that Emperor Zhang Wu was poisoned, even if he can be cured, how can he be cured so quickly?You can only take one step at a time.

He thought of something, and took out the jade pendant in his sleeve and handed it to Yuan Heng: "Look, just now, after I settled down with my master and wife, I ran into Jin Fenggou on the way back home, and I talked to him a few words, he said To congratulate me on your happiness, I gave me this jade pendant as a congratulatory gift..." He said, frowning and wondering, "I always think this jade pendant looks familiar, I seem to have seen it somewhere before, take a look, don't you?"

Yuan Heng took the jade pendant, examined it carefully, and suddenly said: "It's him..."

……

"Water, drink water..." Emperor Zhang Wu opened his eyes weakly, but saw that the hall was empty, he struggled to get up, and shouted at the door, "Come here, come here..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a burst of noise coming in. Emperor Zhang Wu felt extremely upset, and was about to use all his strength to scold him, when he saw Yuanying suddenly barged in, followed by two guards. Looking at a person, that person was Zhao Yuan who was serving him, he frowned, and wanted to ask something, but his throat was so sweet that he couldn't say anything.

Yuan Ying knelt down on one knee and bowed, and then she was filled with righteous indignation: "Father! Just now, I heard someone yelling on the road, and I went to ask and found out that Zhao Yuan had tampered with your medicine! No wonder you His illness will suddenly worsen... Now that bowl of medicine has been taken to the imperial hospital for drug testing, and Zhao Yuan has been escorted by his ministers, how do you plan to deal with him, father?"

When Emperor Zhang Wu heard the words, he was surprised and angry at the same time. He wanted to speak but couldn't, so he coughed violently.

"Come on!" Yuan Ying hurriedly called out.

The servants at the bottom hurried in to serve Emperor Zhang Wu. They delivered water and smoothed the air. Finally, Emperor Zhang Wu was able to speak, and said angrily:

"Say, who ordered you?! If you don't tell me, I will tell you to live or die!"

Zhao Yuan hurriedly took a few steps on his knees, and said repeatedly in horror: "Your Majesty, spare your life, Your Majesty, please forgive me, the slave is wronged, the slave is wronged!"

"Presumptuous!" Yuan Ying kicked him to the ground violently, looked down at him, his pair of red phoenix eyes were extremely cold, "Do you dare to say that His Highness wronged you? That bowl of medicine was taken from you in front of everyone. If you take it, the Tai Hospital will know that it is poisonous and non-toxic!"

Zhao Yuan shivered violently, with despair showing on his soft face: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, this servant is only deceived by lard, and I was ordered and coerced by others, so I did it as a last resort!" Kowtow on the ground.

Yuan Ying raised his eyebrows and questioned: "Who ordered you, tell me quickly!"

"Yes, yes..." Zhao Yuan seemed to be very hesitant, but also seemed to be contradictory. He paused for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "It's His Royal Highness King Zhao... It is he who threatened the slave with his family and made the slave Murder His Majesty!"

Emperor Zhang Wu never expected that Yuan Heng would instigate someone to murder him, his eyes widened in shock, and then he roared angrily: "Detain him, re-trial, careful trial, how did he suffer? Yuan Heng instructed him to spit out all the details of how he murdered me!"

"Yes!" Yuan Ying waved to the guard behind him, and said, "Take it down."

Because of the excitement, Emperor Zhang Wu couldn't even breathe well, his face was flushed, and he was lingering on the bed like a dying beast. Seeing this, Yuan Ying was about to go up to comfort him, when someone came in from behind:

"Father! Father, you have to save the prince's brother, you save the prince's brother!"

The two looked back, only to see Kang Wang Yuanqi crying and crawling in. He knelt down in front of Emperor Zhang Wu's bed and kowtowed, crying as he kowtowed:

"Father, please save the prince's brother, he was wronged, he was wronged!"

Emperor Zhang Wu didn't know why, so Yuan Ying couldn't help asking:

"What are you wronged, tell me clearly!"

Yuan Qi knelt on the ground and said excitedly: "Just now a little servant came to me and said that the queen mother did not hang herself. He saw with his own eyes that a servant hugged the queen and hung it on the beam! All of this was planned by someone behind the scenes. It is to overthrow the prince brother! Now that the prince brother has been deposed and no one protects him, he is almost in danger!"

"What?" Yuan Ying asked in surprise.

At this time, the Empress Dowager arrived in a hurry with her people, and said to the emperor, "Emperor, just now the fifth child has come to look for the Ai family, and the Ai family is in charge of this matter, and has already sent people to control the people in the middle palace... ...Since the Queen's death is in doubt, then Chen'er's matter will naturally need to be overturned. The Ai family has already sent someone to find Chen'er, and we will take him back to the palace to take care of him before we deal with it."

Yuan Qi also echoed: "Father, since he was abolished, the prince brother has always said that he was wronged. He never cursed Father, saying that all of this was designed by Yuan Heng to frame him! Father, please open your eyes." Don't trust that bitch Yuan Heng anymore, hasn't he messed up the palace enough? Ever since he was able to speak, he has been aggressive, targeting the prince and the throne... Now he is murdering the prince's brother, murdering the mother, I don't know One day, I will murder you!"

After he finished speaking, both Emperor Zhang Wu and Yuan Ying fell silent.

The Empress Dowager tightly clenched the handkerchief in her hand, and asked Emperor Zhang Wu, "Emperor, why don't you control Lao Jiu as well?"

When Emperor Zhang Wu heard the words, he finally closed his eyes and sighed:

"Order, the officer in front of the palace should arrest Yuan Heng immediately, there must be no mistake!"

"Yes!"
