Chapter 103 Chapter 103
The news that Mrs. Hu was dead lasted only overnight, and it seemed like it was growing wildly in the market, and almost everyone heard about it.
Mrs. Hu, who was so popular some time ago, and with a stunning appearance, made many students want to see the beauty, died. It is said that she died at a banquet for the birth of the eleventh prince in the palace.
Mrs. Hu resolutely accepted the poison for her husband's love. Before her death, she asked for a sea burial. She was in the lake where her husband died, and wanted to be buried with her husband who had not found the corpse.
Such a passionate woman moved everyone, but unfortunately, such a beautiful woman was so short-lived and lost at her best age.
I heard that it has not reached the Double Ten Years, but it has disappeared like this.
Originally, everyone thought that the sea burial was about to be over the first seventh, at noon the next day, someone saw the gate of the Ninth Prince's Mansion suddenly opened, and a few horses were the first to drive out. The man in the lead was wearing a black brocade robe, with sharp and cold eyebrows and eyes, thin lips, and his five fingers pinching the reins, his back was straight, and he sat on the horse's back and was majestic and solemn. Behind him were the same black guards.
Further down there is a coffin bottle, and there is no way to see who it is inside. Maybe it was carried out from the Ninth Prince's Mansion. Could it be that Mrs. Hu, who just committed suicide in the palace last night?
As soon as the news came out, the people in the crowd went crazy and followed King Li and his party to the city.
At that time, Mrs. Hu's husband was deserted in the lake outside the city, because the lake was very large and the water flowed downstream everywhere was turbulent, so the possibility of rushing out was extremely high.
Some of the regrets that Madam Hu had not seen such a beauties were so regretful that she wanted to meet her in the end, so she rushed over.
Soon, many people gathered around the lake, and it was dark. Because there were too many people, people couldn't help but smack their tongues when they looked at the solemn and sang for Madam Hu.
"How come this beautiful beauty is so fond of love? What's strange is that it's at the banquet of the 11th prince or in the palace? No matter how you look at it, what's weird?"
"What do you mean to commit suicide? This Mrs. Hu was forced to death at all."
"What?! It's true and fake, don't talk nonsense."
"What are I talking nonsense? I have relatives who work as servants in Dali Temple and also serve as guards in the palace. Moreover, the civil and military officials who went to the palace to celebrate the banquet last night and their families could testify. There are also maids and maids who can't hide it, but they will probably be leaked in just a few days."
"Let me tell me what's going on? How could Mrs. Hu be forced to death for a while?"
"This matter is really incredible... The banquet was originally very lively last night. Later, a palace maid accidentally brought the tea to her while pouring tea for Mrs. Hu. She had no choice but to go to the side hall to change clothes. But then you guess what? Mrs. Hu disappeared! Not only did Mrs. Hu disappear, but His Highness the Crown Prince and His Highness Li also disappeared. This is not the most shocking thing. What is shocking is that when the emperor takes people to search, what do you guess? His Highness Li and His Highness Hu..."
"It's not what we thought, is it? Is Your Highness Li sad to be in a beauty?"
"What, don't guess! Your Highness Li is not that kind of person. King Li is deeply in love with Mr. Xie, how could he do something to fall in love with someone else? King Li was drugged by someone. I heard that even after being hit by the strongest medicine, King Li still held up and sat not far away to meditate, and vomited blood!"
"Oh my God, who is so brave that he dares to drug King Li in the palace?"
"You can never guess this person, it's the prince!"
"Really or not?"
"Of course it is true. It was the Empress's person who was personally arrested and presented evidence. Not only that, when Mrs. Hu woke up, she knew that she almost implicated His Highness Li, so she committed suicide by taking poison. When she was dying, she asked His Highness Li to let her die and be buried with her husband. Alas... This matter is so weird. The Empress's person caught by the Empress was very quick. Not only that, the palace maid at the beginning didn't know if she suddenly discovered her conscience after Mrs. Hu's death. She turned against her and said that she was the prince's person, and said that the prince instructed her to dirty Mrs. Hu's clothes and then took the opportunity to knock it out..."
"No, right? But the prince and King Li are brothers. What's the point of the prince? The queen helped a lot this time, otherwise King Li would be wronged?"
At the beginning, the person who was experiencing news looked at the person who spoke, "You have thought too much. I heard that the incident had just happened and everyone didn't react. The queen had already caught everyone in front of her, not even a stick of incense. You taste it, you taste it carefully!"
Some people usually see the storybook and their eyes lit up, "What do you mean is... means..." The queen had known the news a long time ago. She deliberately waited for the prince to get the matter done before exposing the prince after it was done. She killed two birds with one stone?
Everyone looked at each other, knowing it, but they didn't say it out.
Thinking about it, I think this is very likely. After all, the second prince killed Mrs. Hu's husband. Although it was reported that the second prince's subordinates made their own decisions, they deceived others. Everyone knew it. But there was no evidence that the second prince personally issued the order and found a scapegoat. The second prince was demoted. They were just ordinary people who watched a show and did not want to involve themselves.
But the queen is the biological mother of the second prince. Because Mrs. Hu was demoted from a prince to a prince, she felt that the queen would not bypass Mrs. Hu.
So I just waited until I got things done before I could tell the truth. But if His Highness Li had not been strong enough willpower... I am afraid that Mrs. Hu would have to die if she was "bullied" by then or she would have to marry His Highness Li.
If His Highness Li refused to marry him, then Mrs. Hu could only be the ancient Buddha of Qingdeng to be his aunt.
If something happens or someone is gone, is it not the other person who has the final say?
Everyone felt that the royal water was really muddy.
At the same time, I have a bad impression of the prince. I won’t talk about whether this matter was taken by the prince. If it is true, then the prince is not as close to Prince Li as it appears.
Just as everyone was talking, they saw a green lake water ahead, and there was no end at first sight. King Li had already turned over and got off the horse, and the coffin bottle was parked aside. Although they wanted to see, because there was a team of guards surrounded here, they did not dare to go forward. They could only look from afar. They saw King Li open the coffin bottle, personally carried Mrs. Hu out of the coffin bottle, and then placed it on a small boat by the lake.
Even if I couldn't see clearly, the beauty was lying there quietly, wearing a gorgeous dress, silently, and the voices that were originally talking stopped at some point.
The surroundings were surprisingly quiet, and everyone seemed to be not saying anything when they saw this picture, and they couldn't help feeling inexplicably.
Mrs. Hu and his wife were having a good life, but they just came to Beijing for a trip, but because someone coveted Mrs. Hu's appearance, they separated their husbands forever. As a result, this did not count, and they even forced the person to death.
Although I still don’t know why the prince had to plot against the two, since the queen knew in advance, if she could stop her in advance, maybe Mrs. Hu wouldn’t have to die?
It is said to be a sacrifice for love, but even if such a woman does not really happen, how can she deal with herself after she can? This is to force someone to death.
The queen is the lord of the harem, but she has no tolerance. It is obviously the mistake made by the second prince, but she takes her anger on the innocent Mrs. Hu.
As King Li personally pushed the boat down the lake water step by step, and was submerged little by little. Finally, he pushed it hard. The boat carried Mrs. Hu, who had lost his breath, and rushed out like an arrow. Everyone looked at this scene, their eyes couldn't help but feel a little wet, but they could do nothing. They could only watch Mrs. Hu's figure getting smaller and smaller, and finally gradually disappeared from sight.
They seemed to see their shadows in Mrs. Hu. If one day someone saw whom among them, would they be so careless? In the end, they were still safe? Even if they were demoted to prince, they would still be retaliated against?
For a time, the reputation of the second prince, Empress Zhao and Prince fell to the bottom. This was not only a sympathy for Mrs. Hu, but also a sense of fear that she would be the second Mrs. Hu.
In the palace, the prince knelt in the imperial study room, with his forehead against the ground, and his face was pale. Since last night, he had been kneeling here for a night. Fortunately, there was a ground dragon burning in the imperial study room, otherwise his knee would be ruined.
As the eunuch stepped forward and reported, "Emperor, His Highness Li has put Mrs. Hu in a small boat and buried it."
Emperor Chu Yin's face was not good-looking. He didn't look up or speak, but he just revised the memorial. The prince beside him had a pale face. He suddenly turned his head and looked at the eunuch. Lao Jiu actually buried the person so quickly?
"Father, son minister, son minister wants to go and have a look..." He really likes Mrs. Hu. He didn't want to force her to death, but why is she so strong?
However, Emperor Chu Yin suddenly raised his hand and smashed the inkstone directly at his hand. The prince did not dare to move, and his forehead was bleeding, his body was covered in ink, and he was in a mess.
Although Emperor Chu Yin fell in love with Mrs. Hu last night, he was already dead. He had no other feelings except for just a little regret.
Emperor Chu Yin looked at such a prince and finally looked at the eunuch: "King Li suffered this time, and he was worried about Mrs. Hu's affairs, and reward him!"
After the eunuch left with the oral order, Emperor Chu Yin looked at the prince with a gloomy face: "Crown Prince, you are really good! You should step down."
For some reason, the prince could leave, but his uneasiness expanded a little bit.
When he was finally helped out of the imperial study room, the prince looked back. Because he had not slept all night, his eyes were red. He gritted his teeth and stared at the ground, insisting on walking out of the range that he could see in the imperial study room. Finally, he could not hold on and was quickly carried up to the Eastern Palace by his subordinates.
The prince lay on the stretcher, with hatred rolling in his eyes, Queen Zhao!
If it weren't for her, how could his plan fail? How could he not only fail to trick Lao Jiu, but also offend his father, lose his heart, and even... even kill Mrs. Hu.
If he had known this, he would not listen to his staff and would not plot against Lao Jiu. However, it would be useless to regret it any more.
On the other hand, Xie Mingze was afraid that people in the palace would come for autopsy, so he kept taking medicine and continued to pretend to be dead. However, he had woken up once after being taken back by Chu Li last night and handed over the so-called "anti medicine" to Chu Li. When Chu Li pushed the ship out this time, he secretly fed the medicine to him. The medicine given by the system was naturally effective, and it almost melted in the mouth. At the same time, Xie Mingze also became aware.
When Xie Mingze regained consciousness, he felt that the wind was very cold around him. He lay on the boat without moving, and he felt like he was going down the river. He didn't know how long it took, but he felt that it was almost done. When the boat was suddenly down from a high place, when he reached the plane, he suddenly pressed the edge of the boat. The boat tilted, and he turned over and sank into the lake.
This is also to prevent people from seeing each other and deliberately pretending that the water flows too fast and overturning the boat.
After entering the water, Xie Mingze held his breath and headed towards the location he had discussed with Chu Li before. Not far away there was a waterfall, and the water was breathing rapidly, and he was not afraid of being seen. There was a cave behind the waterfall, and there was clothes inside. He just had to wait there.
Xie Mingze successfully sneaked in, changed his clothes, and returned to his original posture. He sat cross-legged there. I wonder if it was soaked in water, so he couldn't help but sneeze.
He remedyed the medicine from the system and took it just in case.
I don’t know how long it took, but when Xie Mingze felt sleepy, there was finally some movement outside. Xie Mingze picked up the clothes he had changed before and hid in the dark. As someone appeared behind the waterfall, even though his vision became dark, Xie Mingze saw the other person’s figure and recognized it as Chu Li, and couldn’t help but squint and smiled. He waited for him to walk through the dark place where he was hiding and rushed towards Chu Li’s back.
As a result, just as he was about to pounce on his back, Chu Li turned around, and then Xie Mingze threw himself into his arms.
Xie Mingze was hugged and raised his head, and when he met Chu Li's eyes deep after the light was extremely dark. There seemed to be a hint of Xie Mingze's unseen emotion, "You..."
Before Xie Mingze could speak, he was blocked.
Chu Li knew that everything was arranged, but when he rushed over, countless possibilities still surged in his mind. If he couldn't come up from the water, if he didn't hide behind the waterfall, even if the people he arranged around him would go to save someone once the time passed without a signal, he was still afraid, very scared, and there was a possibility.
Just like last night he was lying in his arms to act, it was obviously fake, but as he vomited blood and said the last words to him, the panic and uneasiness at that time swept over his mind, he was even very scared...
If it is empty after coming, if he is also counting leaving him, he will completely disappear without a trace by taking this opportunity.
With his disguise, he can definitely avoid everyone. He may not even recognize him or see him face to face.
When he thought of this possibility, when he really came into the waterfall and saw the empty cave, he didn't know what he was thinking, but fortunately... he didn't leave.
But even so, Chu Li wanted to confirm whether this person was real...
Xie Mingze was in a bad mood. He felt that he was almost breathless and had to hammer Chu Li a few times: Is this guy crazy? He didn't want to escape and not drowned by the water, but to die of being kissed and being held back. This death was too embarrassing.
Chu Li's emotions were quickly suppressed. Seeing Xie Mingze glaring at him dissatisfiedly, he was in a good mood and lowered his eyes: "As soon as he came in, I didn't see his wife, I thought she didn't come out of the water, so I was scared."
Xie Mingze listened to his slightly hoarse voice and a slightly pitiful voice, and he couldn't care about it: "Why did something wrong with me? OK, okay, leave quickly, don't wait for the prince's grandson to find him."
I heard that the prince was locked in the imperial study by Emperor Chu Yin last night. They were afraid that the prince would come again, so they quickly implemented the plan while the prince had not left the palace.
Chu Li held the person in his arms, and his heart gradually calmed down, and took Xie Mingze to the yard they prepared in advance.
As soon as Mrs. Hu died, Xie Mingze was not convenient to go back immediately. They planned to wait until the spring exam was released before letting Xie Mingze appear. At that time, Mrs. Hu's death came to an end.
Xie Mingze had no objection. He happened to live outside the city and settled freely.
After Chu Li sent Xie Mingze to the yard, he stayed until dark and accompanied Xie Mingze for dinner before returning to the city. Xie Mingze already knew about the rebellion of the palace maid. Although he didn't know why the palace maid suddenly did this, Yu Xin couldn't bear to have her life in Dali Temple, so he asked Chu Li to get the person out if he could save him.
Because of Mrs. Hu's death, although Emperor Chu Yin suppressed the matter in order to save the royal face, there were too many people present at that time and could not suppress it even if they wanted to.
Especially speculations about the incident at that time, especially the plot between the prince and Empress Zhao killed a person because of the plot behind it. Some ministers even submitted memorials to question whether the prince's character could be competent for the position of the prince.
The prince's reputation was in danger for a moment. The prince's side was not good, and Empress Zhao did not end up well. Since she learned that Empress Zhao might have known that she had just waited for the incident to be told. Emperor Chu Yin was very disgusted with Empress Zhao and frequently began to go to Concubine Shu's palace. She even loved the third prince and the eighth prince whom Concubine Shu had.
This made the situation in the court more shady, and also made the prince and Queen Zhao stunned. Are they considered making wedding dresses for others?
Just as the third prince and the eighth prince frequently entered and exited the imperial study room, another major incident happened in the court. Xie Xiangye was about to announce the exam in the spring exam. Once, the morning court suddenly fell to the ground in front of the civil and military officials of the court. His whole body was twitching and he was finally diagnosed with a stroke, and he might even be unable to get up again.
This news made everyone stunned. After all, if something happened to Xie Xiang, the situation in the court might change again.
The imperial doctors frequently went to and from the prime minister's mansion, but all returned without success. After all, Xie Xiang had an incident before and his body had collapsed. It is not easy to hold on until now, so they are powerless.
Finally, I heard that Xie Xiang wrote a letter to ask His Highness Li to see His Highness Li, and wanted to know the whereabouts of the miracle doctor from Li, and wanted the miracle doctor to treat him.
As a result, he was turned away. At the same time, the spring exam was finally released, and Liu Jieyuan ranked first in high school and became Huiyuan.
