Chapter 290 (1/2)
A large number of ice blocks were placed in the mourning hall. Walking in from the summer heat, I suddenly felt cold all over my body and couldn't help shaking.
It was dark in the evening.
The curtains fluttered, the room was white, and the coffin was placed in the middle.
Everything seems to be so hideous.
The prince's family members, from wives and concubines to children, kneel on the edge of the wake.
As the legitimate eldest son, the emperor and grandson welcome everyone who comes to worship.
After all, the prince is not the son of heaven. Naturally, his funeral can not be done according to the standards of the empress.
Gu Jiu offered incense and offered sacrifices to the younger generation.
He also said to the emperor, ”please forgive me!”
Liu Cheng, the eldest grandson of the emperor, bowed himself slightly, ”my sister-in-law has a heart.”
Gu Jiu didn't want to stay, so he left on his own. I'll cry again tomorrow.
Leaving the shrine, the heat is coming.
Just cool down the body, and dry heat up, out of a sweat.
However, everyone enjoyed it.
The spirit hall, cool is cool, but gloomy, with an atmosphere of unknown.
The look in the eyes of the prince's family makes people feel frightened.
The family survived.
Ouyang Fu rubbed her arm, a little scared.
She murmured with Gu Jiu, ”I really didn't expect that the prince left so suddenly that I couldn't prevent it.”
Gu Jiu nodded, ”yes, it's too sudden.”
Perhaps some people have long predicted that this day will be someone in the spirit hall?
They came to one of the group halls in the northeast corner of the palace, where King Ning and Pei lived.
They first washed, changed their sweaty clothes and went to see the prince and the princess.
”No gift!”
Pei called out, ”have you all gone to the spirit hall to worship?”
Gu Jiu nodded, ”I have already worshipped. I will cry again tomorrow. ”
Pei ordered: ”in the next few days, you should be more careful and do less. If something goes wrong, I may not be able to protect you. ”
Ouyang Fu bluff a jump, ”mother concubine, is the situation very serious?”
Pei, with a straight face, asked, ”what do you say?”
Can it be a small matter that the prince died and died before the decree of the deposed prince was issued?
These days, the palace, people panic, everyone has a small abacus, playing Pa Pa sound.
Together with Jin Wuwei's wantonly hunting for assassin's accomplices, the whole palace has reached the point of panic.
Pei looked at King Ning, ”Lord, you can say a few words.”
These days, Ning Wang was in a bad mood and had a bad temper.
He was a little impatient, ”what do you say? Now there's something else to say. ”
When he thought that the son of heaven would miss the prince day by day, he would talk about the prince when he saw people. He was very angry.
The prince is really too treacherous, even death, have died so planned and strategic, enough to make a colorful article.
It doesn't matter if he died. What matters is that the mentality of the emperor has changed accordingly. It seems that I regret too much criticizing the prince in the past and picking up the advantages of the prince.
What is more disturbing is that in just a few days, the emperor has summoned his eldest son several times in a row, and each time he must say something about a cup of tea.
And also awarded the crown prince princess sun, praised the crown prince princess sun's diligence and thrifty.
What does the emperor mean?
When the prince is dead, does he want to hold up the East Palace instead?
The most disturbing thing is that the prince is dead, but the system of the East Palace is still in place.
The prince is gone. What are you doing with the east palace?
Why didn't the first time make the prince's family move out of the east palace?
There is no prince's East Palace, prosperity is still, this is a dangerous signal.
Because there is no prince, and there is also the eldest son.
For these things, King Ning couldn't eat and sleep well these days, and the cool Beimang mountain palace could not quench his anger.
His mouth was in a hurry, and he had several blisters, which made him miserable.
He waved to Gu Jiuji, ”all step back and do what you should do according to the rules. Don't make trouble.”
Gu Jiu pondered for a moment, ”may I ask father, mother and concubine, have you seen my son recently?”
Pei's frown: ”are you confused? Zhao'er is shut in Zongzheng temple and my princess is in the palace. How can you see him?”
Gu Jiu looks at the king of Ning.
Pei didn't know. It's impossible that King Ning didn't know.
Ning Wang said without expression: ”when you should see him, you will. Go back to your room and rest. Don't think about it. ”
Pei asked quickly, ”Lord, what's going on? Is the imperial edict released? Why don't I know? ”
”There are so many things you don't know. You've got a good idea. Don't ask what you shouldn't ask.”
King Ning was beating Pei and Gu Jiu. Remind Gu Jiu not to shout.Gu Jiu knew that King Ning really knew the inside story, but he would not say.
She got up and bowed down and said, ”my daughter-in-law will obey my father's instructions.”
Back in the room, the servant girls were worried.
Green plum asks: ”madam, childe can be OK.”
Gu Jiu shook his head, ”it should be OK. I think his majesty has arranged some errands for him. ”
She did not want to say more, looking out of the window, feeling the slightly strange atmosphere of the palace.
Ning Wang returned to his bedroom, still in a state of impatience. Walking around the house.
Chang en is waiting on his side. I don't know where to start.
King Ning asked, ”is there any news from Wu Shizhong?”
Chang en shook his head. ”Wu Shizhong has not heard from him for two days.”
Ning Wang bared his teeth, ”the surname Wu won't be half way to give up.”
Chang en dare not answer.
King Ning beat his fist on the table, ”is there any news from the eldest childe?”
Chang en nodded, ”the eldest childe has taken people to Xinfeng County, and so on. They are being carried back to the capital.”
King Ning kicked over the stool.
”I worked hard to plan for many years. After seeing the dust settle down, I was defeated by an assassin. Although the prince died, he turned the tables with his death. I knew that the prince should not be underestimated. They all say that biting dogs don't bark. They don't deceive me
Chang en reminds King Ning, ”the Lord, the officials of the east palace with seven grades or above, will all be buried for the prince. What to do about it. ”
The king of Ning gave a cold hum, ”those people will die when they die. It's not enough for them to succeed. It's a waste of food to live.”
Xinfeng County makes trouble, what a good opportunity.
With the cooperation of Wu Shizhong, this time the crown prince can be pulled down. They took everything into consideration and planned everything, but they did not plan the prince into account.
He thought that the prince was a puppet and could not resist. But I didn't expect that the prince was determined to die and turn the tables with death.
It's too deceiving.
Damn assassin!
Where the hell is the assassin who came out?
If the assassin had not died, King Ning would have broken the assassin to pieces, which would have done him good.
King Ning asked, ”is there any clue to the assassin's pursuit?”
”I tell you, the assassin came to the Imperial Palace ten years ago as an official. He has been diligent and conscientious, and he has not found any abnormality. Therefore, he was ordered to serve in Ganquan palace. I didn't expect this honest man to be an assassin. ”
”That's all. Nothing else?” Ning Wang was very dissatisfied.
After checking for so many days, it's useless to find out this thing.
Chang en lowered his head and said, ”the old man who recommended the assassin to be a servant in the palace passed away last year. People familiar with the assassins have died in the past decade. There are no assassins in the palace. ”
”That's the problem!” Ning Wang smashed his fist on the table. ”They have been prepared for this, so in the past decade, they have cut off all the familiar people around the assassin by various means. In other words, this group of people began to plan as early as more than ten years ago. Is it hard to achieve? There is a real strength to kill my father? ”
At this point, Ning Wang shuddered.
Is there really a gang of traitors waiting for the opportunity to kill the emperor in the palace?
Who wants to murder the son of heaven?
Ruizhen queen Cui?
No, no, no!
If Ruizhen empress Cui really arranged all this, why not do it when she was alive?
