The mighty general died on the day of the palace coup.
All three members of the Li family were executed. For a moment, the execution ground was full of heads and blood flowed like a river.
Concubine Shu heard the news in the palace and was extremely sad.
She really regretted it. If she didn't have to fight for that position, at least she wouldn't involve her clan members. Yi'er can also be a wealthy and idle king in Long County safely.
But now, it was too late to say anything. Looking at the poisonous wine brought by Eunuch Hong, Concubine Shu drank it without hesitation.
She has come to atone for her sins!
Soon, Concubine Shu vomited blood and passed away with guilt for the three Li family members.
Eunuch Hong sighed at the side and ordered people to collect Concubine Shu's body. The emperor gave instructions to deal with Concubine Shu's posthumous affairs and bury her according to the concubine's rites. The person was dead, but he couldn't be careless.
It's over here, he still has to go deliver poisonous wine to King Cheng!
There was no way for King Cheng to be as concubine Shu. The poisonous wine sent by Eunuch Hong was knocked over several times. King Cheng cried bitterly: "I want to see my father. I know I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. Please Father, please spare me!"
"Eunuch Hong, please take me to see my father, please!"
With that said, he was about to rush out of the palace.
Eunuch Hong ordered several young eunuchs to capture King Cheng: "Your Highness, you can go on your way in peace."
King Cheng struggled even more desperately after hearing this.
Eunuch Hong tried to persuade him a few more times, but finally lost his patience and ordered several young eunuchs to hold Cheng Wang down and drink him down.
Not long after he became king, he lost his breath.
Eunuch Hong ordered the people to tidy up, then turned and left.
He also had to cooperate with the Imperial Army to search the palace for suspicious persons, so he really didn't have time to waste time here with King Cheng.
The Forbidden Army and the Ministry of Internal Affairs cooperated with each other. In just two or three days, they found dozens of people who had sneaked into the palace. After interrogation, they found that they were all sneaked in by Concubine Shu who took advantage of being in charge of the harem. In the palace.
In the previous dynasty, a number of members of the royal party were also found, and their homes were confiscated or exiled by the emperor.
For a moment, everyone in the front and back palaces was silent.
At this point, the matter finally comes to an end.
After Shu Yuwan heard about it, she said to herself: "The Concubine Xian and the Fifth Prince didn't prepare to fish in troubled waters? Or were they too careful and didn't find out?"
Shu Yuwan didn't believe that the fifth prince and the wise concubine would let this great opportunity go without making any move.
It's a pity that I didn't catch the fifth prince this time, otherwise, I could have killed two of them at once.
The prince saw this and said: "If the fifth brother and the wise concubine are added to the list, my father will feel even more uncomfortable. Let him take some time off."
Shu Yuwan said sheepishly: "I am not thinking carefully."
The prince touched Shu Yuwan's hand: "I know you are doing this for my own good."
"Shao Siyi is in charge of the Forbidden Army. He is capable enough. My father has given him the power to do it. If he doesn't find out, I'm afraid there are no loopholes to catch."
When Shu Yuwan heard the prince talking about Shao Siyi, she suddenly remembered the Shao who married the prince in her previous life. She didn't know if that Shao was related to this Shao Siyi.
She couldn't help but smile in her heart. At first, she was worried that Shao's marriage to the prince would be detrimental to the prince. She wanted to find a way to prevent the prince from marrying Shao, but she didn't expect that she would marry the prince in the end.
Shu Yuwan replied: "I know, A Jin, since there is peace in the palace, you don't need to worry too much about me, just go and do your work."
"Yes." The prince nodded. There were still many things to do with his father, so I went there first.
Then he touched Shu Yuwan's belly and said softly: "Don't torment your mother, otherwise my father will be angry."
Shu Yuwan was amused and pushed the prince.
The prince then turned around and went out.
After the prince left, Shu Yuwan said, "Qingdai, go and inquire about Shao Siyi and see what's going on at his home."
Qingdai was now used to the sudden and unexpected tasks that her young lady had to do every day, and she immediately turned around to deal with them.
...
The emperor went to court again, but his spirit had deteriorated visibly, and his complexion looked poor.
I used to get up at the beginning of every day, wash up and start dealing with political affairs, but in recent days, apart from barely getting up early in the morning, Eunuch Hong would have to shout over and over again before he could get up.
But the emperor was of a diligent nature, and gave many orders to Eunuch Hong to wake him up at that hour.
Eunuch Hong couldn't help but advise: "Your Majesty, your health is not fully recovered yet, so you should rest for a few more days."
The emperor shook his head: "No, in order to pretend to be poisoned, I have rested for many days. If I continue to rest, these matters in the court will have to be postponed again and again."
The emperor himself knew that the poison had almost been cured, but he was more sad.
He also treated Concubine Shu with care. He had always felt that Concubine Shu had a simple mind. Ever since Shu Yan left, the harem was full of people, and Concubine Shu was still in his heart.
He also watched King Cheng grow up. He used to go to Concubine Shu's palace a lot. When King Cheng was a child, he often walked around him. When he saw him, he would act coquettishly and ask him to hug him.
Unexpectedly, after he sent King Cheng so far away, he would come back and cause a fight between father and son!
During Concubine Zhang's confinement, when she found out that Concubine Shu had died, she felt as if Concubine Shu had died: "Concubine Shu was pampered by her father and brother when she was at home, and she married into the palace. The emperor was also very kind to her because of the help of her father and brother. , I have always been willful and free-spirited, but I didn’t expect that I ended up committing suicide for myself and my whole family!”
"Your Majesty..." Aunt Jin said worriedly: "Concubine Shu is dead, and in the harem, the world will be ruled by Concubine Xian!"
Concubine Zhang snorted softly: "Concubine Xian is not as easy to deal with as concubine Shu."
Aunt Jin worriedly said: "Concubine Shu is in charge of the harem, we can still mobilize people to do things, Concubine Xian..."
Concubine Zhang hesitated for a while and said indifferently: "Now we can only use silence to make the rest of our staff calm down. Now that Concubine Xian is on the stage, let her perform well. It seems Concubine Xian is a good chess player." Now, the emperor is more aware of everything~"
"yes!"
"Did Concubine Xian find anything?" The emperor asked in Chengqian Palace.
Shao Siyi knelt down and said, "Back to the emperor, I have found no abnormalities."
Eunuch Hong also lowered his head and said, "I haven't found anything wrong with Concubine Xian."
After thinking for a while, he added: "It's just that some of the people who were arranged to enter the palace by Concubine Shu were found to have sneaked into the palace along with the items requested by Concubine Xian. But at that time, the palace Concubine Shu is in charge, and these are also arranged by Concubine Shu."
The emperor listened thoughtfully and asked, "Are these people still there?"
Eunuch Hong bowed his head even further: "You ordered that he be executed together with the Li family members."
The emperor gave up after hearing this.
It's also possible that he was suspicious.
However, Concubine Xian came to remind him at the last moment that the ginseng soup was poisonous, which always made him feel suspicious.
