Walking out of the secret room inside the wall were Zhu Xianwan and Wu Bao, Xie Yan and Feng Zizhang went in when they didn't know what happened, and cast puzzled eyes together.Zhu Xianwan's face was full of tears, and she suppressed her crying and said to them, "I got the news and went back to His Majesty. It happened that she and Duan Qichen were in the emperor's bedroom with medicine to visit Cui Xuanji at that time; the emperor heard it, probably I also had some doubts, but it was inconvenient to leave, so I asked Wubao to accompany her to listen.

"I went to the secret room in order not to disturb you. When I arrived, my uncle just started to explain. Who knows, it turned out to be something like this." Xie Yan and Feng Zizhang didn't know how to comfort them, and Zhu Xianwan wiped them off With tears in his eyes, he said solemnly: "Let's go, please Your Highness and Mr. Xie to go back to the palace with me to face the saint."

Xie Yan and Feng Zizhang looked at each other, Feng Zizhang asked her what she was going to say, she said, "Naturally tell the truth."

"Can……"

"It doesn't matter." Zhu Xianwan said solemnly, "I can't let me say this. Only if I say it, His Majesty will believe it completely. Besides, if I don't say it, my conscience will be condemned forever, and I can't face it." My sister's spirit in heaven."

The three of them returned to Feng Zihuan's bedroom and said they wanted to face the saint.Feng Zihuan seemed to have been prepared early in the morning, leaving Cui Xuanji to the Qin imperial physician, walked out slowly by himself, and asked Feng Zizhang: "How is it?" Zhu Xianwan said that she already knew all the situation and could tell His Majesty Report, but the matter is confidential, please leave the left and right, Your Majesty.

It is rare for Zhu Xianwan to be so serious, Feng Zihuanyou understood the seriousness of the matter, so she left the left and right sides, and came to the side hall with the three of them. "Let's talk." She stared into Zhu Xianwan's eyes, waiting for Zhu Xianwan to hear the answer.Just now, Wubao came to report that Feng Zizhang and Xie Yan were going to interrogate Zhu Shijing, so she knew there must be some conspiracy behind it.It is not uncommon for Zhu Shijing to harm her. She has long believed that he must fail her, and how he fails will not affect his crime.But instead of coming back to tell himself, Feng Zizhang went to interrogate Zhu Shijing to prove that something was wrong.Of course she understood that Feng Zizhang would not harm her, otherwise yesterday would be the best and only time.But Feng Zizhang may indeed have deceived her for some greater benefit.And the more you cheat, the bigger the problem.It is safest to send a person with related interests or even some conflict with Feng Zizhang's position on this matter.This is her last resort.

But she never thought the answer would be like this.When Zhu Xianwan said that Mrs. Dou was Zhu Shihan's illegitimate daughter, she didn't feel anything wrong; when she heard that Mrs. Dou had not only poisoned Zhu Xianzhi for a long time because of hatred, but now accepted bribes from Zhu Shijing to poison herself and Cui Xuanji , she only felt that the five thunders were on top of her head.

If there is a choice, Feng Zihuan would rather hate himself, thinking that everything is his fault.Whether it is fate or the five elements, at worst, it is inevitable for the emperor's family.How can people accept such a truth?Zhu Xianzhi had good intentions for a while, and refused to let her half-sister become a private prostitute on the street, hoping to give her a better life and atone for her father's sins, but who knew that it was self-defeating just because she was hindering each other's face and taking care of each other's self-esteem, and was instead harmed by people.Did Zhu Xianzhi know that it was Dou Mi who harmed him?When Zhu Xianzhi was dying, she asked herself not to investigate too much, saying that even if she investigated, she would not be able to bring her back to life, but it was just another person who died in the world.Is this also protecting Dou Mi?If so, how sad is it?If not, how sad would she be if she knew?

No reward for a good man.Why don't good people get good rewards?Could it be that she did something wrong in her previous life?Or should she bear the responsibility of what Zhu Shihan did wrong?Or is she owed in this life, only to be repaid in the next life?There is no explanation that Feng Zihuan can swallow.

Feng Zihuan felt that the sky was mocking him.There is only one simple, even ridiculous reason for the things you punished yourself for so many years.It doesn't take much motivation, much evil nature, to do something terribly evil.But the more trivial the cause, the more painful it is.

Zhu Xianwan knelt down below, Feng Zihuan closed his eyes and said nothing.Xie Yan and Feng Zizhang stood in place and didn't know what to say.The side hall was so quiet that a moment seemed as long as a year.It wasn't until there was a commotion from the imperial doctors in the warm pavilion that Feng Zihuan woke up like a dream, and hurriedly asked what was wrong.The imperial physicians said that the ministers were too nervous and were afraid of spilling the refined ointment, and they made a noise for a while, which alarmed His Majesty, please apologise.

With tears in his eyes, Feng Zihuan said that it doesn't matter, you go to work, and then let Zhu Xianwan wake up.Zhu Xianwan refused, saying that the Zhu family had committed a lot of crimes, not only plotting rebellion, but also trying to poison the emperor for a long time. As the head of the harem, she was also responsible. "The concubines don't know how to face His Majesty anymore."

Feng Zihuan smiled wryly, and asked Feng Zizhang and Xie Yan to help Zhu Xianwan up, and said to Zhu Xianwan: "Just now, I closed my eyes and wanted to see your sister. But I tried hard for a long time, but I couldn't see anything. According to Zhu Shijing, look The reason why Lai Zhen got sick, and Xuan Ji got sick for no reason afterwards, is all thanks to this Dou Mi. Ah, really..."

Seeing this, Zhu Xianwan wanted to apologize, and was about to kneel down, Feng Zihuan simply waved his hand, and a soft internal force swept over Zhu Xianwan's knee, lifting her up. "You have been in the palace for so many years, and you are not happy. The last time I ran into—" Feng Zihuan quickly glanced at Xie Yan and Feng Zizhang, thinking that they are all from his own family, so there is no need to hide, "You and Concubine Duan I once told you that I think you are doing well, because your sister will be happy if she sees you happy now. I don’t want to do anything that would make her unhappy in the spirit of the sky, such as for Dou Mi's evil deeds to punish you and Hezhi and others. You have pleaded enough for irrelevant people over the years, but you have done nothing wrong. I hope this is the last time you plead guilty. From now on, I I hope you can live happily and happily. I will also take care of you, after all, I promised your sister."

Zhu Xianwan had no choice but to answer yes.Feng Zihuan asked Feng Zizhang again: "Is there any record of what Zhu Shijing said?" Feng Zizhang said yes.She also asked Feng Zizhang how he coaxed Zhu Shijing back then, and Feng Zizhang told her the seductive conditions he offered Zhu Shijing.She nodded: "Okay. Let me pass on my decree: Zhu Shijing, Zhu Gaozhi, and Zhu Ming's father and son, who treasoned the country and colluded with the enemy, plotted rebellion, and led the Zhu family, Zhu Shijing... All men will be beheaded, and the family property will be confiscated. Women involved in treason , also beheaded. Women who are not involved in treason will be brought up by Zhu Hezhi. The remaining branches of Zhu's family are not involved in the beheading and confiscation. There is only one: within three generations of Zhu's family, they are not allowed to be used as officials unless they are ordered by the emperor. None of them are allowed. This is the case.”

The three took orders, and she added: "As for Dou Mi's body... just burn it and bury it with her mother."

Feng Zizhang still hesitated, she continued: "Speaking of which, there is no excuse for doing evil. But she is a poor person, and so is her mother. You have already destroyed her body, and her life has long been destroyed by her own. I don't want to take revenge on her anymore. After all, no matter what I do, I can't bring Xianzhi back from the dead. As for the money she deserved when she died in the palace, Xianwan, you can use it to repair their mother and daughter. You must not let others know about this, Xie Yan, you go to the camp of the Yulin Army now, torture Zhu Shijing, who else knows about this, and kill everyone who knows, and when the torture is over, you will Zhu Shijing’s tongue was cut off. This is my oral order, you just carry it out. Then, pass on my oral order, starting today you can join the military meeting of Cui Yi, Zizhang, and Taiwei. You don’t need to change your official position, just participate in the discussion. The right to walk freely within your palace."

After finishing speaking, she let the three of them go separately, and went back to the warm pavilion by herself to ask the imperial doctors how they were doing.Doctor Qin said that everything is the same as before, neither good nor bad, "It's just that the pulse condition is a little stronger. Your Majesty is sending true energy, so take care of yourself."

"Don't worry, old man."

After everyone left, the bedroom became quiet again.Soon, a few tears fell on the quilt on Cui Xuanji's body.

Xuan Ji, my past is such a big joke.I didn't feel the slightest pleasure in catching the real culprit. The truth just proved that everything I was obsessed with might be meaningless.To blame myself, to punish myself, in the end is to suffer for my innocence or stupidity, not everything I imagined.I am afraid that the reality that people face is never what they imagined, and sometimes the gap is so far that it takes a huge price to understand.

I now feel that the price is too great, too great.It's a pity that we can't turn back, we can only go forward.I'm not afraid to go forward, I'm afraid to go forward without you.

Feng Zihuan, who hadn't slept all night, experienced this blow, was physically and mentally exhausted, and fell asleep beside Cui Xuanji.She fell asleep very quickly when she was tired, and soon she dreamed that she came to a garden.The lush vegetation almost covered the road going in; the shadows of the trees were mottled, making it hard for her to see what scenery ahead.After walking for a long time, there seemed to be a person sitting under the tree at the end of the road.With a flicker of light and shadow, she saw that the man seemed to be Zhu Xianzhi, and immediately quickened her pace.Unexpectedly, a tree branch blocked the way, causing her to hit her head.This collision, and then raising his head, it seems that Zhu Xianzhi's figure has got up and left, and walked to the fork in the road to the left.Feng Zihuan hastily chased after him.

I walked around the garden for a long time, but couldn't catch up.She didn't dare to shout out, always worried that Zhu Xianzhi would disappear if she did.Going round and round, following the figure all the way, unexpectedly returned to his bedroom.Walking into the palace, she saw Zhu Xianzhi standing at the door of the Nuan Pavilion, waving to her.

come here.

it is good.

sit down.

where to sit

Sit on the edge of the bed.

She went back to Cui Xuanji's bed and sat on the stool, while Zhu Xianzhi sat beside Cui Xuanji's pillow.

I remember that when Cui Xuanji was young, he was a very cute child.She doesn't talk much, she is quiet and intelligent, and takes good care of others.You may not have seen it, but the first time I met Cui Xuanji was when she was four years old, and her father invited Cui Xin to visit her home.Ah, at that time she was still a little girl carved with jade.She suffered for you.

Yes, I made her suffer.

So, you have to take good care of her in the future.

I will.

This way I feel at ease.

In the dream, Zhu Xianzhi looked as if she was about to stand up, she immediately stretched out her hand to pull, but Zhu Xianzhi dodged him.Sad in her heart, she looked at Zhu Xianzhi with tears in her eyes.

where do you want to go?

I'm leaving.I stayed for far too long.

You are gone, what should I do?

Are you afraid of being laughed at by your daughters when you say such childish things?

But I don't know how I should live without you.

As long as you remember me, I will always be with you.Zihuan, my time has stopped, and it is impossible to go forward no matter what.And you're not, and holding on to me won't do you any good.You also told me that now that you have her, you are not lonely, you are even much happier, and you can still do what you want, which reassures me.Now that I see her like this, I worry neither about you nor about her.can you reassure me

I can.I certainly will.

This is my last request to you.I'm sorry, Zihuan, I have asked you too much in this life.

What nonsense, I am willing for you.

You are for me, and she is for you, why bother.You should be for each other, not for me anymore.okay?

it is good.

Thank you, Zihuan.

In the dream, Zhu Xianzhi put his hands on her cheeks and kissed her forehead lightly.The kiss was so real, she could almost feel the warmth from her skin.However, the moment Zhu Xianzhi let go, she woke up from the dream. She was still lying beside Cui Xuanji, but her hand was inexplicably placed under the quilt, covering the back of Cui Xuanji's left hand; Wet a lot with tears.

For two consecutive days, Cui Xuanji was still in a coma, and Feng Zihuan continued to send her true energy in order to save her life.On the afternoon of the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, Feng Zihuan was outside talking to Feng Xu and Feng Xi who came to visit, while the imperial physicians were inside changing Cui Xuanji's medicine.In words, the mother Feng Zihuan felt that Feng Xi was still innocent, but Feng Xu seemed hesitant to speak.She was worried if Feng Xu knew something.

She hoped that her two daughters would never know about the past.But when things happen suddenly, it is still necessary to be on guard.So he took the opportunity to distract Feng Xi, and asked the little guy to go to Duan Qichen to get some soothing and medicinal incense.Then I asked Feng Xu why he hesitated to speak and was so unhappy?

Feng Xu has a straightforward personality. When she saw her sister gone, she leaned against her mother and asked in a low voice: "My daughter just saw her mother caring so much about Cui Qing. She didn't think about eating and drinking. She thought about the past and wanted to know if mother Interested in Cui Qing? If so, mother intends to...?"

With this question, Feng Zihuan almost blushed.If it was a concubine, she might choose to speak out, after all, there is no need to hide.As for my younger sister, that guy is extremely smart and has already seen it.Only for the two daughters, I don't know how to answer.Said that she is really interested in Cui Xuanji?I am afraid that my daughters will hate me for this.deny?Forget it, I can't hide it.Earlier, she thought that Feng Xi must be the first to attack, but she did not expect Feng Xu to be so courageous.What can I say?After all, she herself doesn't know what to do...

"Master Qin!" As soon as Imperial Physician Qin came out, a medical officer shouted from behind.Feng Zihuan followed the sound and looked around, seeing that there was a mess inside.She suddenly lost her mind and walked over quickly.

Unexpectedly, it was Cui Xuan who woke up.

"Xuanji! Xuanji!!" She rushed to the bed, laughed and cried, and called Cui Xuanji's name, without any trace of calmness and reason.However, Cui Xuanji just turned his head with difficulty, looked at her in a daze, shouted "Your Majesty" in a low voice, and stopped talking, just half-closed his eyes to pant, and even started to twitch slightly.Seeing this, Feng Zihuan immediately touched Cui Xuanji's forehead, it was hotter than expected.

She stepped aside and let Doctor Qin come up, her heart sank to the bottom of the valley again.Seeing this, Imperial Physician Qin immediately called his assistants to remove the place where the medicine was applied just now, and prepared to clean the wound again, and asked Feng Zihuan to avoid it.Feng Zihuan said no need, she wanted to watch.

When Cui Yi was called over, Feng Zihuan was already sitting outside.Cui Yi asked about the situation, sighed and said: "Your Majesty, although this is not pleasant to hear, the old minister still wants to say: I am afraid that the future must be prepared."

Feng Zihuan nodded solemnly: "Cui Xiang, please inform Yuzhang Gong and his wife to come to Jiankang as soon as possible."

"The old minister went to write a letter early in the morning. Now my sister-in-law is already on the way."

"Okay, I will do my best to treat it."

She lowered her head, "I will never give up."
