Palace Prisoner

Chapter 57 counted

When Xiao Yuanqi came out of the dark and returned to the Shangyang Palace, Shen Sirong was sleeping against a low couch in the side hall. The sun hit her face and showed unusually pale, as if he felt a gaze staring on her face. Shen Sirong frowned, butterfly-like eyelashes trembled, and his bright eyes were separated. A thin layer of veil, when she saw Xiao Yuanqi standing not far away, the veil was pulled away and a little light gathered in the middle of her eyes.

"Thank you for your hard work." Xiao Yuanqi took out the sachet that had just stimulated Ruolan in the dark prison. Shen Sirong did not answer and looked at him and shook his head.

"It's just a sachet." Shen Sirong rubbed his forehead, which was painful because he had not slept all night.

Xiao Yuanqi looked at her index finger gently turning on the tip of her forehead and circled her: "Let's go back and have a good sleep. Look at you, your face is as white as a piece of paper. Is it possible that it is made for the orphan? This is useful. I dare not tolerate your hard work in the future.

With a light smile, his tired face seemed to fade a little. Before leaving, Shen Sirong accompanied Xiao Yuanqi to the bedroom to see Xiao Ze. But he found that Xiao Ze's face was darker. The gentle mood just now disappeared in an instant.

The poison in Xiao Ze's place, the royal doctor has never found out what it is made of. At his helplessness, he can only watch him become thinner and thinner, and the prescription for detoxification can only slow down his pain.

Every day, Xiao Ze took up more and more of his time in a coma. There is a depressed atmosphere in the hall. On the bright yellow bed, the original powerful Yongkang Emperor has long lost his former brilliance. Xiao Yuanqi's nose is sour and unbearable, and so is Shen Sirong.

"Your Highness, Mother." The imperial doctor of the Imperial Hospital was on one side, full of helplessness and shame.

Xiao Ze opened his eyes and turned his head to look at them. With a slight movement of his fingers, Xiao Yuanqi hurried forward and grabbed his hand. Shen Sirong coldly sent away the people in the hall. Xiao Yuanqi's emotions should not be shown in front of others. Finally, it was Mother Lan who withdrew. Before leaving, Mother Lan specially looked at Xiao Yuanqi's direction, but there was no way to show anything behind her.

M Mother Lan withdrew her eyes and was caught by Shen Sirong. She never thought that the crown princess would suddenly turn around. Her mind was confused, and her eyes suddenly contracted. The panicked eyes made Shen Sirong stunned, as if.

M Mother Lan hurriedly saluted and stepped out quickly. Shen Sirong looked at her close the door of the bedroom, as if his eyes were still those eyes. Her eyes were too similar to those in Shen Sirong's memory at the moment of frightened.

Is it her who appeared in Fengming Palace?

It was not until he heard Xiao Yuanqi's faint crying that Shen Sirong turned around.

......

Rulan's identity has been verified, and Xiao Yuan's start-up has also been accelerated. After the next step, Xiao Yuanqi was ready to public about Ruolan's poisoning of the emperor and the prince.

Li Qingyun, the minister of the Ministry of War, made Xiao Yuanqi's plan come to nothing. Xiao Yuanqi had just raised this matter in the court, and before he said some details, Li Qingyun made a self-rejection.

"Weichen was sentenced to death, and his niece Ruolan was sent to the East Palace. If I don't investigate, this woman is actually an impersonation. Recently, I heard that this woman did all kinds of evil after entering the East Palace. She was jealous of the crown princess and was assassinated by the crown princess when she sacrificed her ancestors, which was a crime to death. Later, this woman actually wanted to do that wrongful act against the crown princess again, which mistakenly harmed His Majesty. Now the emperor is poisoned and critically ill, which is indeed the loss of the minister. The guilty minister begged His Royal Highness to treat the minister.

Xiao Yuanqi, who pinched Li Qingyun's chapter, was calm.

I didn't expect them to move so fast. He came to plead before he arrived, but the ears and eyes in this palace were very smart.

"Hmm."

"I'm panicked." Xiao Yuanqi threw the memorial down the imperial case, and all the courtiers knelt down one after another.

Wang Chu is the leader, but the fear is ironic. Did he just believe that he has no evidence to move the Wang family now? Xiao Yuanqi had shallow lines at the end of his eyes because of his movements.

However, Xiao Yuanqi will naturally not let go of this opportunity. Maybe he can't make a big move, but he can still empty some of their rights.

"Since you claim to be a death penalty, of course, I will fulfill you. Wang Youcheng, how to punish properly. Xiao Yuanqi looked at Wang Chu in his spare time.

Of course, Wang Chu didn't expect it. Xiao Yuanqi broke the routine like this, knowing that the military headquarters was under his jurisdiction, and Li Qingyun also had a close relationship with his Wang family, which was a good strategy for him.

"Weichen thought that this matter should be severely punished."

"Texit about it." Xiao Yuanqi wanted to see what tricks Wang Chu could play.

Wang Chu arched his hand and said, "Your Highness, this move has endangered the dragon body of our emperor. Although it is not what Lord Li wanted, this matter is a mistake he left behind. Therefore, Weichen thought that Lord Li should be punished for a year, and the official position should be reduced by one and a half. And the impersonated criminal woman will be sentenced to death.

As soon as this was said, many ministers met it. Xiao Yuanqi said thoughtfully, "What Wang Youcheng said is that the salary will be punished. However, the official position is too light. With the servant of the Ministry of War temporarily dealing with the affairs of the Ministry of War, Lord Li returned to the house to reflect for a month, and the official position was reduced by one grade, which needs to be effective later.

Although some courtiers disagreed, they said nothing more.

Xiao Yuanqi's move made it obvious to the courtiers that the sky was about to change in the Changli dynasty.

......

Rulan is dead.

Died in the dark prison, and the news reported to the East Palace one night. Xiao Yuanqi was not surprised. As early as the person named Anji "smoothly" "escaped" from the palace, the guards in the dark prison returned to their original state. The people of the Wang family and Shufei also naturally had the opportunity to go in and silence. They thought they were themselves when they saw Ruolan's poisoning. We haven't got any strong news yet.

Xiao Ze said that Shufei and the Wang family did not know the true identity of Ruolan, but only regarded them as a wonderful person they tried their best to train.

I'm afraid they can't reach this omission.

Xiao Yuanqi's smile did not reach the bottom of his heart, and the news came that Xiao Ze was critically ill. When the news arrived, his hand fell straight down, and a heavy color fell on the medal.

There was only a blank in his mind at that moment.

I hurried there, and Shufei had been waiting outside the Shangyang Palace for a long time. Xiao Ze ordered that only the left and right prime minister, the secret envoy, Shen Shiyan and Xiao Yuanqi were allowed to enter.

Xiao Yuanqi looked at the face with a fading color, and his heart was like being devoured by thousands of ants. Xiao Ze held his hand and tremblingly took out the edict that had been written under the jade pillow.

It was handed over to Zuo Cheng and Chen Xun. Chen Xun was an old minister, and he was also Xiao Yuanqi's teacher. With the bright yellow edict, everyone knelt down and their tears blurred.

"I know that the limit has come. I only hope that all the ministers of the humerus can assist the prince and serve as officials for Changli and for the prosperity of Changli. Cough...cough..."

Xiao Ze tried his best to explain. There was a little light in his eyes, and the violent cough made him unable to bear it. He could only lean on Xiao Yuanqi.

"Your Majesty."

"Father."

With a cry, it added a little sadness to the palace. The solemn black marble made the silence roll in at this moment.

Xiao Ze raised his right hand and waved it, and his left hand still covered his coughing mouth. Xiao Yuanqi's shoulder has been splashed with a few traces of blood.

"Let's step down." Xiao Yuanqi helped Xiao Ze lie down and took a clean brocade pail. Sure enough, Xiao Ze's left hand was covered with blood.

"Father..." Xiao Yuanqi lost his mother when he was a child. For him, Xiao Ze was a mountain that supported him to go down. Now the mountain is already swaying and struggling.

Shen Sirong was edicted to enter the hall with a rare smile on his face. Xiao Yuanqi felt that the smile made his eyes hurt. When he looked at Shen Sirong, he was more angry and less warm.

"Father, my daughter-in-law is here." Xiao Ze kept coughing blood, and his spirit was not clear, but when he heard Shen Sirong's words, he struggled to wake up.

He held Shen Sirong in one hand and Xiao Yuanqi in the other. He smiled at them, and some words didn't need to be said. Shen Sirong is the crown princess he chose for Xiao Yuanqi and the person he chose to accompany Xiao Yuanqi for a lifetime.

Shen Sirong came here with a gift she wanted to give to Xiao Ze. She smiled, very warm and bright. She ignored Xiao Yuanqi's presence and men's and women's defense. She bent down and said something in Xiao Ze's ear.

I don't know what Shen Sirong said, Xiao Ze's face was like a painted cloud, and he suddenly became a little lively.

His spirit is much better, and his deep cheekbones are more prominent because of his smile. Xiao Yuanqi took the initiative to ring Shen Sirong. No matter what she said, if he could make his father so happy, he would thank her.

"Yuan Qi, there are some things that must be done, but some people must be treated well. Sirong, so are you." After saying that, Xiao Ze smiled and showed a state of sleepiness.

Xiao Yuanqi and Shen Sirong withdrew and saw Shufei outside the door. Shufei had always wanted to go in to see Xiao Ze, while Guo Guanghai stopped her in the name of Xiao Ze.

"The emperor will not see this palace. If the crown princess can enter, why can't this palace?" Shufei's angry eyes stared at Shen Sirong, who had just stepped out.

When the two came out, Shufei looked at their unwilling eyes, like nitric acid, to melt them. Ignoring Shufei's emotions, Xiao Yuanqi passed by by mistake. Behind her, Concubine Shu was still stopped outside the door, and her anger was endless.

The news of the death of Emperor Yongkang fell into everyone's hearts. Xiao Ze, who was in good spirits during the day, fell into a coma at night and never woke up again.

It's night, and the bells are endless in the palace. The originally quiet palace was full of strong sadness. In order to reflect this sadness, the red silk originally hung was replaced, and the dazzling white swayed in the night of Changli Palace.
