Chapter 11 Night Banquet
"Princess Chang'an is very happy." After sitting down, the empress dowager suddenly said a strange sentence. I turned around. She was very different tonight. She was still wearing a gentle and kind mask that day, but now she is ridiculed. If I don't feel wrong, her tone is like a winner against the loser, extremely arrogant.
"When I returned to the Empress Dowager, Ah Youming felt your kindness and was happy." I can't help thinking of the good play said by the emperor's uncle. What will happen tonight?
"Youyou, do you like this dance?" The emperor's uncle's voice sounded in my ear. He was very close to me and smelled the fragrance of dragon birthday mixed with the smell of bitter medicine, which inexplicably reassured me.
It was the music and dance shop tricks that had just come in singing and dancing in the hall. Their faces were covered with colorful totems, dressed in animal skins that did not cover their bodies, holding stone spears filled with sharp weapons, and drums, and sometimes shouting and dancing. This, primitive dance? He looked at the emperor's uncle doubtfully. He shook his head gently, raised the corners of his mouth, and pretended to be mysterious: "The good show is in the back."
At this time, the field suddenly turned, and a group of men in cloth joined the dance. They seemed to be fighting with drums, cloth against animal skin, bare hands against stone spears, one by one.
"Empress dowager, do you know who is the winner?" The emperor's uncle suddenly turned around and looked over me, and his eyes were unprecedentedly sharp. The loser loses, the winner wins, and the winner is divided. The Empress Dowager curled the corners of her mouth.
The dance has stopped, the cloth restrains the animal skin, and all the tricks kneel under the hall waiting for the reward.
"Ha ha, can you understand it? Demons will eventually be expelled. The Empress Dowager, but?" Naturally, evil does not suppress righteousness. However, who is evil and who is right can be determined. However, no one thinks that he cares about people's ordinary people. The Empress Dowager seemed to smile, brushed her sleeves, and the glazed cup in her hand fell to the ground.
With the crisp sound, all the tricks in the hall got up neatly and quickly pulled out their sharp swords from the stone spears. Before I could react, my neck had been resisted by a cold thing. It turned out to be the palace man behind me. The hall exclaimed. I didn't dare to move. I didn't squint. My heart jumped, and my head was dizzy again. Why am I alone? At the same time, a guard outside the door also rushed in with a sword.
"Empress dowager, are you going to force the palace?"
"This palace is only on the side of the Qing Dynasty."
"Why do you think it's a crime not to say that Youyou is only a child girl and has only been in the palace for a few days?"
"Her existence is a sin."
"Auntie!" A panicked and anxious child's voice inserted into their conversation. Er, I never felt that the voice of the little boy was so beautiful.
"Let go of Princess Chang'an, murder the royal nobles, and treat her as conspirable." Unexpectedly, it's the virtuous concubine. Fortunately, the person who threatened me had a strong psychological quality and stable hands, and I was not excited by her words.
"What a royal noble, she is really precious. Haha..." old witch!" Why didn't the emperor speak? Why don't you send a medical officer to identify it and see if the princess Chang'an is a righteous daughter or... her own daughter? The temple was instantly blown away by this sentence. God, thunder and kill this old witch. Why did the emperor's uncle keep silent at this joint and order people to control this crazy woman?
There was a sudden cough on his side, and General Manager Qin and a group of women said in a hasty voice: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." "What? If you don't want people to know, don't do it yourself. Your majesty of the Han Dynasty, if it hadn't been for the obscenesity between you and the Shunhua princess, why would the previous emperor have hurriedly married her to Ruyang Marquis? It's just that the former emperor knows how embarrassing it will be today. You actually gave birth to this evil seed, and now you are still crowned as a princess. Your Majesty, are you such a model for the world?
If I never knew what "hate" was before, then the witch finally taught me.
"You old witch, you are the empress dowager. Everyone knows what you are doing today. You are the most obscene to make up such absurd words and frame the emperor. I rushed out and completely forgot the sharp weapon on the side of my neck.
"Kill this evil seed for me."
"slowly."
I didn't wait for the knife, and then slowly opened my closed eyes and felt that the blade was a little farther away from me, so that my neck could move slightly.
A person's Xuanjia soap clothes walked into the hall, with dark skin and awe-inspiring. It's not Yan Yun who it is.
"Can the Empress Dowager know this?" A white jade swayed his teeth in his hand. The Empress Dowager seemed to be frightened: "It's absolutely impossible."
"I seem to miss the Empress Dowager very much. It is said that he made trouble all night yesterday. After all, the mother and son are deeply in love. The Empress Dowager is really willing to put him in such a remote place for more than a long time." Although the emperor's uncle's voice was tired and powerful.
"What do you do with my son?" Since Chong'er is my own brother, he naturally has nothing to do." You..." "Empress dowager, let your people retreat first."
The old witch thought for a moment and issued an order: "You step back later." So the tricks and guards in the temple all withdrew from the door, except for those who were restraining me. I don't think she is so easy to comply, but the emperor's uncle didn't seem to care much and said, "Don't you want to hire a medical officer? Yan Yun, let's send it up.
"No."
Immediately, an old man with a white beard came to worship with a young man carrying a medical box.
"Huang Yizheng, although you no longer work in Taiyuan Hospital, all the medical officers in Taiyuan recommend you as the person with the highest medical skills and the best medical ethics in Dajing."
"I dare not be, it's just the heart of a doctor."
"Today, the Empress Dowager wants you to make a parent-child verification for me and Princess Chang'an. You have a reliable way."
"Your Majesty, since ancient times, the blood relationship between father and son has been identified by the method of dripping blood, and the result is nine out of ten."
"Well, let's start."
I saw him order the young man to take out a bowl, put it with potion, and then take out a silver needle from the medical box and salute the emperor: "I have the courage to drip dragon blood." The emperor's uncle stretched out his hand, stabbed a silver needle, and a drop of blood dripped into the bowl.
Doctor Huang is turning to me: "Princess, please."
So I also dropped a drop of blood.
At that time, the hall was full of holding his breath. Doctor Huang was putting the bowl on the case for everyone to watch: "The result is obvious, and it is not compatible." The emperor's uncle smiled and asked, "How about the Empress Dowager?"
"Hmm, who knows what's wrong with it."
"Empress dowager, I am willing to guarantee with my life." Huang's righteous words.
"I still have something to ask. Huang Yizheng" Emperor's uncle stood with his hands behind his hands: "Do you know what wind thorn grass is?" I can feel that the empress dowager who has been sitting all the time suddenly shakes all over. Your Majesty, this thing is made in the northern mountains. Its shape is very similar to licorice, and it also has a cool and detoxifying effect, but it is chronic and highly toxic when mixed with the dragon's birthday fragrance. The poisoned person is like a cold, which is difficult to diagnose. There is almost no cure for it. Generally, the poisoned person can't live for more than a month. Fortunately, the fragrance of dragon birthday is rare, and it is difficult for ordinary people to be poisoned.
So this grass is still commonly known as "He gave a slight meal: "commonly known as 'Killing Dragon Grass'." But this thing?" General Manager Qin took out a paper bag from his sleeve and put it in the right hand of Dr. Huang. After opening it and observing carefully, Dr. Huang said, "It's exactly this thing. I'm so scared that I don't know where your majesty came from?"
"Ha ha, I also want to know, Empress Dowager?" He faced the old witch. How did I know?" She calmed down. Then ask the insiders to come up."
A person slowly came in from outside the hall. He showed half of his shoulders, wearing a sackcloth and thorns. His facial features were strong and he was almost obedient.
"Father." Duguhong lost his voice. The man ignored it and went straight to the hall and knelt down: "The sinner Dugujin saw your majesty and ask your majesty to be punished." I peeked at it. Since he came in, the Empress Dowager's face turned pale.
"The Duke of Anguo is the pillar of the country. The former emperor will not kneel down before pardoning you and get up." The emperor's uncle asked General Manager Qin to help him up.
"I deserve to die, and I owe you my kindness." He is motionless. What's wrong with you?" The sinner made a mistake in failing to stop the Empress Dowager's rebellious behavior in time. About a year ago, the Empress Dowager summoned her ministers to see her and told them that she had prepared to do great things over the years. She wanted to push the king of Chu to the throne, but she couldn't persuade her, so she took the excuse to detain her only son to threaten the minister to respond. I was so old that I didn't want anyone behind me to die, so I didn't immediately inform your majesty. He pretended to cooperate, and finally exposed his wolf ambitions inside and outside. Unexpectedly, this cruel woman would find thorn grass to be mixed into your majesty's medicine. Everyone was shocked by this. Did the emperor's uncle actually get such a dangerous poison? Thinking about his pathology, is he terminally ill? I dare not think about it anymore.
A cold hand covered my clenched hands and patted me soothingly. I suddenly realized that the blade against my neck was no longer, and the emperor's uncle approached me with apologies. I don't know how to react. I turned my head. The person who held me hostage before was a dramatic dagger at this moment. The crown has been removed and it turned out to be Tang Zhuo seen in Weiyang Palace.
"Your Majesty, all the dead outside the palace have been captured, and the officials involved in the conspiracy on the roster are also arrested. Except for a few people who refuse to capture themselves, they have written a confession." Under the hall, Yan Yun replied.
"Ye�. Thanks to the roster provided by Duke Anguo." I'm panicked."
"Does the Empress Dowager have anything to say?" Ha ha, the successful man is the king, and the loser is the bandits. I have nothing to say. Just look at your compatriots and let go of Chonger. You also know that he is young and stupid by nature, and can't participate in plotting..."
The Empress Dowager's already disiled face was full of tears, and she seemed to be a teenager in a moment. "Oh, I said that Chong'er is my brother, and naturally nothing happened."
"The world is proof?"
"There is no joke."
The Empress Dowager suddenly hit the dagger that restrained her, and Tang Zhuo was caught off guard and let her succeed. Blood gushed out of her neck, and the emperor's uncle quickly reached out and wrenched me into his arms. I struggled to break free and rushed to the empress dowager: "The antidote! The antidote to thorn grass?" She still had enough strength to grin, spit out two words silently, and finally died.
I was held in my arms by the emperor's uncle, and my hands were stained with the blood of the Empress Dowager. Suddenly, there was chaos around me, as if many people were exclaiming, and some people called me, "Youyou." Ayou." Princess." And my heart is full of only those two words: "No solution."
