Nine thousand years old [rebirth]

The news of Concubine Wen Gui's death did not reach Emperor Longfeng's ears until after the Longevity Festival. At this time, three days had passed since the Qianqiu Banquet.It is said that the body was hung in the house for three days before being discovered.

When he first heard the news of the death, Emperor Longfeng was stunned for a moment, his face was ugly to the naked eye, and there was a little anger: "Why did a good person suddenly disappear?"

Saving Concubine Wen Gui's life shows that he still has some feelings for this woman.Now that I suddenly heard the news of the death, I still feel a little bit unbearable.There is also the meaning of venting anger towards the palace people who are not optimistic about others.

The little eunuch who came to report lowered his head even more, and replied cautiously: "On the day of Your Majesty's Longevity Day, Concubine Wen Fei said that she would copy Buddhist scriptures to pray for His Majesty, and the palace servants who delivered the meals were not allowed to disturb her. The maid who delivered the food only put the food in the outer room for three consecutive days. The food was eaten by the mice in the cold palace, and the maid did not see the problem. After delivering it for three consecutive days, she did not hear any movement in the inner room , became suspicious and went inside to check, only to find that the person was gone.”

Hearing that Concubine Wen Gui was still thinking about copying scriptures and praying for herself before she died, Emperor Longfeng's expression became more and more radiant.He hesitated for a moment, but in the end he couldn't bear the bleakness of the only woman he ever loved, so he stepped outside: "Show me, I'm going to see the imperial concubine for a ride."

Hearing this, Gao Xian immediately had someone summon Yu Chuan, and after another look, a young eunuch serving him quietly walked towards the side hall.

When Yin Ciguang received the news, Emperor Longfeng's imperial guard had already headed towards Changchun Palace.

From his position, he could vaguely see the bright yellow guard of honor driving.

He stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, with a very pale expression on his face.

This is probably the difference between being favored and not being favored. Emperor Longfeng never visited his mother until she was buried.Now a disused concubine hanged herself in the cold palace, but Baba had to run to see her off for the last time.

Yin Ciguang lowered his eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up in a mocking arc.

I hope the emperor sees the gift he prepared, and he can still miss his favorite concubine.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Emperor Longfeng's imperial drive stopped in front of Changchun Palace.

The cold palace is desolate and uninhabited for a long time.Fearing that he would offend the emperor, the accompanying servants pushed open the door and cleaned up the dust before respectfully inviting Emperor Longfeng to enter.

This is the first time that Emperor Longfeng stepped into the Changchun Palace, but it is not the first time to enter the Cold Palace.

When he was young, his biological mother had a low status and was not favored. The Dongzi Palace where he lived for a long time was a cold palace.After he came to the throne, no one lived in Dongzi Palace, but someone specially assigned to take care of it.

On the contrary, because of bad luck, Changchun Palace gradually became a cold palace.

It was probably the difficult life in the cold palace that touched him when he was a child. Before Emperor Longfeng stepped into the main hall, his expression already mourned.

He knew how hard it was to be in the cold palace, and when he thought of the agony of being imprisoned here and suffering so much, he felt a little regretful.Perhaps it was because she couldn't stand the bleakness of the cold palace that the imperial concubine chose to hang herself.

Every step closer to the main hall, Emperor Longfeng felt more regret in his heart.

Before stepping over the threshold, he stopped for a long time, sighed deeply, and said to Gao Xian beside him: "After I have seen it, ask someone to restrain the body of the noble concubine. She walked in a miserable way, and she must be dignified after death."

Naturally Gao Xian should do so, personally wiped the stools in the outer room, asked Emperor Longfeng to sit down and said: "I will go in and sort out the remains of the empress first, so as not to surprise Your Majesty."

Emperor Longfeng nodded slightly, sat down and waited.

It didn't take long to see Gao Xian coming out from the room, and his expression was hesitant to speak.

Seeing this, Emperor Longfeng frowned: "What's wrong?"

Gao Xian wondered: "Your Majesty, don't go in."

Emperor Longfeng would not listen to this endless persuasion, his brows became tighter, and he got up and walked in: "Is there any scene that I can't watch?"

The person speaking had already entered the room, but before he got close, he was startled by the messy papers all over the floor.

He looked down to the ground, and there was a waiter who understood and wanted to pick up the paper and present it.However, before it was delivered to Emperor Longfeng, Gao Xian intercepted it: "There are some foul words on it, don't stain your majesty's eyes."

But the more secretive he is, the more Emperor Longfeng wants to see.

He took the paper back, but saw that there were scriptures written on the paper, and it was clearly all curse words written in cinnabar!It even wrote his name outrageously!

"What is this?!" Emperor Longfeng had always tabooed such things.His face changed instantly.

Gao Xian ordered people to pick up the papers all over the floor, and carefully said: "These were all written by the imperial concubine during her lifetime..." Seeing that Emperor Longfeng's complexion became more and more ugly, his expression also hesitated, as if he still had something to say .

"What else?! Say!" Emperor Longfeng was so angry that his hands were shaking.

Only then did Gao Xian bite the bullet and said: "Just now, the minister had someone inspect the body of the imperial concubine empress. If it is correct, the empress hanged herself on the day of the Qianqiu Banquet, and she was dressed in red when she hanged herself... It seems, It seems to be performing witchcraft."

Emperor Longfeng subconsciously took a step back when he heard the words, his eyes suddenly turned to the corpse parked inside, and he saw the bright red embroidered shoes and a piece of red skirt.

"The art of witchcraft?" Emperor Longfeng's expression changed from shock to anger: "On the day of longevity, she hanged herself, she is cursing me!"

The pity and remorse before he came in all turned into anger, and now he looked at the corpse covered in white cloth as if he saw the revenge of this life.

Flicking his sleeves and leaving the door, Emperor Longfeng still hadn't calmed down his fright and anger, and said in a trembling voice: "Hurry up! Let someone burn the body, including all the dirty things! Then invite Master Ziyuan to do something to exorcise evil spirits! "

Emperor Longfeng didn't want to stay here any longer, strode out the door, boarded the imperial court, and hurried back to Qianqing Palace.

After returning home, he felt unlucky, and burned all the clothes he wore when he went to Changchun Palace, so he felt a little better.

There was too much movement in Qianqing Palace, and Yin Ciguang from the side hall came following the sound, holding the freshly boiled soup in his hand: "What's wrong, Father?"

He looked surprised, ignorant of the Changchun Palace.

Emperor Longfeng looked at him, and he couldn't help thinking about the Changchun Palace again.

Just now, he was thinking about his past friendship, and wanted to restore Wen Mi'er's honor as a noble concubine, so that she could walk with dignity.In the end, that woman cursed him on his birthday!On the contrary, it was the eldest son, whom he had neglected so much in the past, who had obviously been killed by Wen Mi'er, but did not complain about his treatment at all, and is still doing his best to take care of the sick.

A little remorse welled up in his heart, Emperor Longfeng didn't want to mention the matter of Changchun Palace, he just said kindly: "Just now the subordinates came to report, Concubine Wenfei hanged herself. I thought she killed your mother and concubine after all. With malicious intentions, people have already burned her body, which can be regarded as an outlet for Concubine Rong."

Yin Ciguang raised his eyes in surprise: "Father..."

Emperor Longfeng raised his hand to signal him not to say any more, and patted him on the shoulder vigorously, his expression becoming more kind: "You are a filial child, and I can see it all in your eyes."

Yin Ciguang lowered his eyes, and brought the decoction in front of him: "The imperial doctor has improved the new prescription, saying that this decoction is more effective in regulating the body, father, please drink it while it is hot."

I don't know if it's because he was thinking day by day and dreaming at night, or the curse was really fulfilled, but Emperor Longfeng had a nightmare on the night he came back from Changchun Palace.

He was lying on the bed, extremely conscious, but his limbs were as heavy and weak as if they had been filled with lead, unable to move!

It was not until dawn that Emperor Longfeng got rid of the "ghost pressure bed", and after hastily washing and changing clothes, he summoned Master Ziyuan to come.

Master Ziyuan just went to Changchun Palace yesterday to perform rituals to drive away evil spirits, so he naturally knew that Concubine Wen Gui cursed the emperor with her death on her birthday.

He mumbled and pinched his fingertips and walked around the Qianqing Palace, thinking about what kind of rhetoric to make up to be foolproof, but suddenly there was a commotion outside. The emperor was already lying straight on the ground!

Emperor Longfeng fell so suddenly that the servants in the palace were shocked and rushed forward one after another, those who helped people helped others, and those who passed on the imperial doctor.

Master Ziyuan strode out, pinched his fingertips and said solemnly: "It has come true so quickly!"

The others couldn't care what he said at this time, and hurriedly carried him to the dragon bed.

After the imperial physician came in a hurry, after administering needles and pouring medicine, after an hour of tossing, Emperor Longfeng regained consciousness and opened his eyes.

He opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but he could only utter vague syllables.

After trying several times, it was difficult to piece together a sentence: "Zhen... this is... what's wrong?"

Realizing his inarticulate pronunciation, Emperor Longfeng's eyes were filled with surprise.Fear made him subconsciously want to grab something, but then he found that he couldn't move at all!

The more so, the more terrified he was. After struggling for a long time, he raised his hand, grabbed the imperial doctor's hand, and looked at him with tearful eyes.

Seeing his agitation, the imperial physician who was caught hurriedly said: "Your Majesty just got into a fit of rage and didn't rest well, so he had a slight stroke. With the help of acupuncture and moxibustion decoction, he can still recover a lot. Don't let your emotions go up and down again!"

Hearing that he could recover, Emperor Longfeng was no longer so excited, and only opened his mouth with difficulty: "Healing, good!"

The imperial doctor took the order tremblingly, and hurriedly ordered the decoction to be brought up.

The decoction was brought by Yin Ciguang himself and served him to drink.

Seeing that Emperor Longfeng calmed down after drinking the medicine, the imperial physicians went outside to discuss the next treatment plan.Only Gao Xian and other confidantes, as well as Master Ziyuan remained in the inner room.

Emperor Longfeng looked at Master Ziyuan with a gloomy face.

Master Ziyuan nodded, confirming his guess.

Emperor Longfeng gritted his teeth bitterly, scolded a bitch in his heart, and said awkwardly: "The real person... the ritual... exorcising evil spirits!"

He spoke briefly, but Master Ziyuan understood it, nodded and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will open the altar after I return home."

The news of the emperor's stroke finally spread, and several princes and important court officials came to visit one after another.

After four or five days of recuperation, Emperor Longfeng was able to get up, but the stroke was irreversible. Although he can still move now, he can no longer make facial expressions, and his speech is still a little slurred.The body is far less flexible than before, and it is still difficult to hold things with both hands.

The imperial physician administered needles and medicine every day, but there was nothing he could do.

Emperor Longfeng was furious, but he was afraid that being too excited would make his condition worse, so he forced himself to endure it.

When he saw the crown prince leading the third prince and a few senior ministers over, his expression twisted for a while, but he knew that this matter could not be suppressed no matter what.

He purposely summoned Yin Ciguang and Xue Shu to wait on him.

But the crown prince, the third prince and several courtiers were standing in front of the couch.Although it looks peaceful, in fact the two sides are clearly separated.

Emperor Longfeng deliberated his words and said slowly: "The imperial doctor said that I have to rest in peace, and I can no longer worry about it. In the future, I will hand over all affairs in the court to the prince, who will supervise the country." His eyes were fixed on Yin Chengyu, seeing him His expression didn't change at all, and he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, so he could only express a little bit of the arrangements he had thought about in the past few days: "But I also feel sorry for the prince, and the burden is too heavy for the prince to carry alone. Let Wang An and Xue Shu will take part in one or two for the prince. All affairs in the court will be assisted by King An, and the prince will decide. Finally, Xue Shu will report to me."

He made a good plan, set up the crown prince and King An, let the two brothers fight, and Xue Shu, who didn't touch both sides, supervised them.

In this way, even if the prince is allowed to supervise the country, the power is still in his hands.

Everyone can see that this decision is inappropriate, but who dares to question the emperor's decision?So everyone can only give thanks.

Only Yin Chengjing, who was not mentioned from the beginning to the end, clenched his fists, his eyes were gloomy.

Coming out of the Qianqing Palace, Yin Chengyu and Yin Ciguang parted in front of the palace gate. Yin Ciguang cupped his hands at him, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Yin Chengyu returned a salute, turned around and returned to Ciqing Palace.

Not long after returning to Ciqing Palace, Xue Shu came to find him.

Yin Chengyu was also waiting for him, and when he saw him coming, he waved away the waiter, and asked, "Did Master Ziyuan increase the potency of the medicine?"

Emperor Longfeng's stroke was really strange.

Ever since Dan Xidongshou's illness, Emperor Longfeng began to cherish his life. Not only did he no longer call for beauties, but he also began to cultivate his body and mind with Master Ziyuan.In addition, in order to make Zhenren Ziyuan's words more credible, Yin Ciguang massaged him every day when he was sick, and it was indeed good for his health.

Emperor Longfeng's physical defeat was not so fast.

Moreover, he is not close to beauty, so Su Hexiang from Concubine De's side is useless, and Concubine Wen Gui has another accident, now only the pills that are usually taken are left to work.Master Ziyuan was cautious, for fear that the imperial physician would find out that the erysipelas would be charged with regicide if the medicine was too strong, so the progress was slower than they expected.

This time Emperor Longfeng's sudden stroke was really unexpected.Thinking about this time in the previous life, Emperor Longfeng was still in good spirits by taking the elixir.

Xue Shu shook his head, he didn't let Master Ziyuan intensify the medicine.Emperor Longfeng will die sooner or later, and now the impact of being sooner or later is not great, so there is no need to take risks.

"I've already asked the imperial physician, but I didn't find any abnormality, maybe it's my fate."

Yin Chengyu thought for a while, then let it go.Whether there is something wrong with it or not, it has nothing to do with them.

He mentioned another matter: "I'm afraid there will be some movement on the third side. Is there any news from Wuzhu's side?"

The emperor's arrangement today is obviously to fight against King An. The third prince, Yin Chengjing, hasn't even been mentioned by name, and I'm afraid he is going crazy with anxiety.

"I just delivered the news last night. She said that something is wrong with Yao Shi, and she seems to have noticed something."

They wooed Wuzhu because they wanted her to find out how the child in Yao's womb came about in secret.With Yin Chengjing's injuries like that, there must be no possibility of healing, and there must be something strange about Yao's pregnancy.But now, relying on Yao's pregnancy, Yin Chengjing has already clarified the rumors. There is no evidence for this kind of thing, and there must be evidence.

It is impossible for Yao to conceive out of thin air, and the real father of the child is the best proof.

An inhumane prince will forever cut off the possibility of inheriting the great line.At that time, if Yin Chengjing is in a hurry to jump over the wall and grabs the handle, he will have no chance to stand up.

Yin Chengjing probably also knew the impact of this matter on him, so he did it very secretly.It seems that even Yao himself has been kept in the dark all along.

At first Yin Chengyu suspected that she was acting, but after ordering someone to follow her for a long time, she ruled out this possibility.

Now the news that Wuzhu handed over made him a little curious: "Did Yao realize it?"

Xue Shu said "Yes": "Wuzhu said that Yao Shi has been closed since the Qianqiu Banquet, and the information she heard was that Yao Shi had a congenital gas. But she found that Yao Shi sent a letter back to Yao's house." , entrusted the Yao family to inquire about Ziyang Prince’s son in secret. They also sent their confidant maids to several pharmacies to buy a lot of medicinal materials. Those medicinal materials were shown to the doctor, who said that they could be used as a folk prescription for abortion.”

"Why is Prince Ziyang's son involved?" Yin Chengyu frowned.

Xue Shu said: "It has been investigated by someone, and there is no conclusion yet."

But at this time, Yao Shi asked people to investigate Ziyang Prince's son, and it was hard for people not to think about the child's biological father.

If it is true, it can only be said that Yin Chengjing is really putting all his eggs in one basket.
