Chapter 592 End the favor and die on the same day
After the first snow, there was finally a pale sunshine this day.
Outside the imperial study, the two small yellow doors on duty were sleepy at noon. They were slightly drowsy with their waists outside the hanging bright yellow brocade curtain. Suddenly, they were disturbed by a rapid pace and quickly widened their eyes and saw that the curtain was lifted. The prince, who had not long after entering, strode out with joy, and only a Zhu Yanyang was left in a moment. Yang's back.
The two attendants looked at each other in con's face. When they entered, they were still depressed and uneasy. Why did they suddenly come out in high spirits and high spirits? Did they encounter something good? It's unlikely that even the queen has been abolished. Who doesn't understand that the East Palace is in danger?
However, the waiter naturally dared not talk about it, that is, he saw the golden embroidery cloud pattern on the hunting suit of the prince gradually fade out of sight, and then returned to sleepy and take a nap.
The prince is really happy.
Because his father's edict just saw him, he actually allowed him to go to the palace in Rehe. Although he did not say it clearly, he actually acquiesced in allowing him to visit the deposed concubine Zhen. The prince was not very sensitive to political affairs, but he was very aware of this matter.
He walked vigorously to the East Palace. The prince took the commander of his own soldiers and gave him a good order. He went straight to the bedroom, bumped into Dan Li, the maid of honor, and pulled his slender hand: "Dan Li, Dan Li! My father allowed me to go to the Rehe Palace. Prepare quickly and set off today. Danli, I can finally see Alian. Are you happy?
The ecstatic prince never expected his happy gratitude. After he couldn't wait to leave, his father pressed his forehead and smiled bitterly: "I really can't expect it. I should have given up long ago. What kind of temptation? Since Dalang never forgets Zhen, he is so affectionate that he will let him live in the Forbidden Palace with Zhen in the future. After living this life, accompanied by the Zhen family, Dalang will not feel that the days are like years, less miserable to live in confinement.
Naturally, the prince did not notice the uncomfortableness on the face of Danli, a trusted maid of honor, and was relieved by the following.
Dan Li ordered the little maids to pack some clothes, walked alone to the room behind the main hall, threw a pill she had decided to take earlier into a bowl of hot water. After seeing the meltdown, she raised her hand and poured it into the spit pot.
This medicine comes from the Miao family. If you take it, you will have a high fever, and the court ladies will suffer from diseases. Of course, they will not disturb the imperial doctor. What's more, ordinary imperial doctors can't diagnose it because of poisoning and fever, not a disease. The maids of honor have diseases. According to the law, they should be sent to the out-uterine nunnery for rest. After recovery, they can return to the palace. The nunnery is far less strict as the palace, and there are people In response, there is a great opportunity to disappear.
Of course, the reason why Dan Li planned to sneak away was to get a sign - the lark to escape.
As early as half a month ago, she got the poison transferred by the dark line in the palace and fell on the prince's tea. Naturally, this poison also originated from the Miao family. The toxicity was yin and should have originated immediately. However, Miao Shimo prepared the medicine of restraint at the same time. Danli people in the palace, so she kept the prince safe for the time being. As long as she left the court, the prince had no medicine for restraint. The toxicity will be relieved and will occur that night.
Once the prince is poisoned, the people who serve even the whole East Palace are bound to be severely punished. Dan Li was originally the confidant of the crown princess Zhen, not the dead man of the emperor. Later, he was bought. First, his family fell into the hands and became a threat. Second, the other party also promised that as long as Dan Li obeys the order, her parents and family In Xiliang, you will be able to enjoy wealth and no longer suffer from slaves.
Of course, if Dan Li is willing to poison the prince, she must also save her life.
Yu Haoxi had been malicious to the prince for a long time. At the beginning, he did not think of using the Miao family's poison to assassinate him. First of the strict supervision of the East Palace during the reign of the Zhen family, it was not easy for him to buy the palace maids to poison him. In addition, it was also because he was afraid of Jiang Qinggu and it was difficult to guarantee that nothing would be missed, so he gave up this idea. Instead, he bought Yu Dong. Huang Tao and the two of them can make the prince die confusingly and not be suspected of themselves.
Of course, at this time, the emperor will not care whether the emperor will understand the truth, as long as the prince dies violently.
However, Prince's trip to the Rehe River is indeed a coincidence.
Rehe is hundreds of miles away from Beijing, and it has to be delayed for three or two days. Danli knows the prince's habits and must not be used to the official diet. At that time, he will not be afraid of not having the opportunity to go to the restaurant. Because she is the only confidant of the Zhen family, she is very trustworthy. As long as she leaves the palace, there are many opportunities to escape, more Not to mention that you can also pass the news out of the palace first through the palace attendant and make an appointment with the reception person.
Dan Li smiled, and her frightened days finally came to an end. She was expected to get together with her family and no longer suffer from being a slave.
The prince, who was in danger, left the East Palace and rushed to the Rehe River in a hurry. Along the way, he couldn't help but be happy to see his lover. Since the exposure of the imperial examination and dance case, his heavy mood has been swept away, and he wished his wings would fly to his lover in a blink of an eye.
Dan Li was "soft-hearted" and planned to give the prince another chance to say goodbye to his former owner Zhen, so he still insisted on relieving the poison for the prince for two days.
The Rehe Palace is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the scenery is very beautiful, but the banned Zhen family is not qualified to live in the magnificent palace, but in a palace in a remote area of the palace.
Over the years, some princes have silently paid attention to the points. Although Zhen's imprisonment career is not good, at least he has not been bullied and humiliated, and his life is still quiet.
But Zhen's mood was really not happy. She had Ling Yun's ambition, but she was banned from the cold palace. She really thought that there was less than 1% chance of turning over in the future, that is, because of the remaining expectation and unwillingness, she insisted on living like a year.
In the ninth year of Yuanqing, the series of great changes that occurred hundreds of miles away in Kyoto have not been transmitted to Zhen's ears.
The day was clear, and Zhen was walking in the forbidden garden in plain clothes and jade cloak without a ring.
The scenery in this garden is really not beautiful. The green walls are high and the hedgerows are dense. Because in winter, the green is reduced to a sad yellow, and there are only a few old locust trees in the yard. It is this season that the dead leaves fall all over the ground, covering the pale gravel road.
The dead grass in the corner of the wall is bathed in today's light gold.
The abandoned concubine living in the Forbidden Palace can't paint pink. Zhen's face is pale, and even on her lips, she can't see any bright color.
Her eyes passed the broken cobweb on a slightly lower branch, and she was smiling coldly. She heard the mute sound of the opening and closing of the door behind her, and a series of urgent steps.
For a moment, Zhen's heart suffocated.
This door is opened twice a day, and no one enters. Only the palace slaves wait for someone to deliver the meal.
Over the years, she has been used to silence and is strange to the sound of pace.
Zhen Lian stiffened her back and almost subconsciously thought that the emperor who was far away in Jinyang had finally lost his patience, or that the prince was about to ascend the throne, and the emperor ordered her to remove this hidden danger.
Since she was banned here, she has thought about this possibility thousands of times, and everything is waiting for expectations, but in vain.
Before she recovered from the hesitation in her chest, Zhen Lian was tightly circled by her arms.
"Alian, I'm coming, Alian, I'm finally..." There was a familiar and strange voice in her ear, which made Zhen Lian's back suddenly stiffer.
It was very slow, and there was a burst of ecstasy in her heart.
Did she really look forward to a 1% chance? The prince finally ascended the throne and came to pick her up and return to Jinyang.
Even if he is a rational person, after a long period of confinement, he will infinitely magnify that trace of expectation and become naive.
Zhen forgot that even if the prince took over the throne, he did not have such a great ability to immediately suppress the group of literary ministers and imperial historians in the court. Even before she heard the death knell ring, she rushed to the Forbidden Palace to pick her back to Beijing.
Zhen, who was full of expectation, avoided the prince's eager kiss. Her frozen eyes burst into flames, and her thin fingers tightly twisted the prince's palms. She hadn't spoken for a long time and opened her mouth for a moment. That is, such a moment of dullness, she was hit by five thunder!
"Alian, Alian, I don't miss you every moment. Can you miss me? You have lost weight, my Alian, blames me... But don't worry, since my father allowed me to come to visit you, I must be soft-hearted. If I beg my father, maybe I can pick you up." The prince's eyes filled with tears, and his trembling palms turned to his beloved wife's face, but he was grasped tightly again.
"What did Your Highness say? Did the Holy King ask you to come here? Zhen Lianxing's eyes were round, but the flame in her eyes was fading inch by inch and sinking into a dead silence.
If the emperor is still alive, it is absolutely impossible to let the prince step into the forbidden palace where she is, unless...
"Your Highness, what happened during this period of time?"
The prince, who had been completely lost his mind by the ecstasy of reuniting with his lover, was completely lost his mind. Until this time, he did not understand his father's frustration with him. He grabbed Zhen Lian's stiff hand and put it on his cheek and began to complain: "Alian, I can't do anything without you, but drink to relieve my worries... Alian, How did you guess that a lot of things had happened during this time? It weighed on my heart like a stone, which made me breathless... My mother was abolished, my uncles were also executed, and the Kong family was full of people..." The prince was about to talk about his anxiety and fear in these days, and suddenly he was staggered and almost There was no direct collision with the old locust beside him.
He stood firm with the tree pole, but saw that the man's five facial features suddenly twisted and his eyes turned blood red.
All hope collapsed, and Zhen Lian was sure that her humiliation was a lingering joke from the beginning to the end.
"Yu Haize, at this point, the emperor asked you to come here, and you can't wait to come here?" Zhen Lian pressed her hand to her skirt, and her voice sounded unobstructedly through the forbidden garden that had been silent for many years: "Don't you know what the emperor means? Yu Haize, your storage space is gone, gone! In the future, you will be banned with me within this high wall and spend the rest of your life like this, do you know?"
Zhen Lian clutched her skirt tightly, and her chest was full of grief and indignation, but she could not leave half a tear.
The prince's face was pale and seemed to be unbelievable, but he knew that his wife's words were true. He had such a premonition, but he had never dared to face it.
"Alian, even so, as long as we can be together..."
"Get out! Get out! If I had known that I shouldn't have expected you, I should have been sober. If I had died at that time, I would at least keep my dignity from this humiliation. Yu Haize, I really hate it. I really hate why you are such a person in the storage position. I really hate how I married you!" Zhen turned around, stepped on the fallen leaves, and walked to the cold palace.
But she was pulled by her sleeve. The prince stood in front of her, her face was full of sadness, and her eyes were full of despair: "Alian, if I were not the crown prince, wouldn't you even give it to her eyes?"
The prince's question was not answered. In the end, he got a decisive back, which went into the deserted palace, and then there was a loud door ring.
This desperate day is destined to break up with strangers, and life and death will end with indifference.
The prince did not stay in the Rehe Palace and left like hell.
In the evening of that day, the official post on the way back, the prince was comforted by Dan Li and went to the liquor store to get drunk.
At dusk, the prince was half drunk. Although there was a personal army to persuade him, the prince still used wine to relieve his worries. He was obviously drunk.
Dan Li found an excuse halfway, saying that he would go back to the official post to find a thick piece for the prince in case it was cold at night, and the soldiers were unprepared.
As soon as Dan Li didn't go back, the soldiers felt that something was wrong, but they could no longer find Dan Li's whereabouts.
The wind was very urgent this night, and the drunken prince was carried back to the official post by his own soldiers.
In his sleep, seven orifices bled to death.
On the third day of November of the ninth year of Yuanqing, Crown Prince Dalong was poisoned and killed on his way back to Beijing in Rehe.
Maybe it is God's will. On this day, the deposed crown princess threw herself into the forbidden palace.
The ridiculously broken couple is destined to die on the same day of the same year.
