Emperor Yongning is seriously ill and will die soon!

I don’t know when this news spread, let alone who spread it. When Cui Xie, the young master of Jingzhao, learned about the news, he couldn’t control it anymore.

It only took half a day...not even half a day. What the people on the streets of Jingzhao were discussing was this news.

Following this, all the linen clothes and paper lanterns with white flags in Jingzhao were sold out.

Even some Qin Lou Chu Pavilions canceled their upcoming celebrations.

The common people are like this, let alone the officials.

The people who were still wanting to see it quickly exchanged the Geng Tie and set the date for the engagement.

No matter how rushed the process is, it doesn't matter. What matters is choosing the nearest day!

Otherwise, I don’t know how long it will be delayed.

Some officials were busy sending anti-child pills to their wives and concubines who had slept with them for the past two nights, just to put their minds at ease.

Although the state-owned mourning does not require ordinary families to observe filial piety, which family of officials does not have one or two political enemies? If the day when the child is conceived is too close to the state-owned mourning, it is always easy to be manipulated.

At the same time, many people in the Sifang Pavilion of the Ministry of Rites hurried out of the city, and even many more birds were hovering above the Sifang Pavilion.

When Cui Xie knew these things, he was simply shocked.

The situation regarding the dragon body is a secret among secrets, the most important among secrets, and it is impossible for the outside world to know it.

It just so happened that such news came out!

More importantly, the officials and people in Jingzhao believed the news!

He couldn't imagine how this happened, but it happened!

What's more important is that Yin Mu Sui of Jingzhao happened to be away from Jingzhao, and he didn't even have anyone to report or take notice of him.

Now, he didn't dare to report the situation in Jingzhao, let alone not to report it. After asking the government officials to find out more information, he changed his mind and went directly to the palace to see Emperor Yongning.

Emperor Yongning was really not aware of these unusual movements in the capital.

In the past few days, he had asked Zhu Yi to lead the Fengchen Guards, observing the East Palace and the Xue family wholeheartedly, without any time to distract others.

Of course, the emperor did not know this situation, and there were other reasons.

The most direct thing is that the news spread too fast, and Cui Xie was too nervous. Less than half a day after the news spread, he went to the palace to ask for an audience.

This half day is actually very short.

In addition, if someone deliberately covered it up, Fengchen Wei would not be able to react.

Therefore, when Emperor Yongning heard Cui Xie's report, his first reaction was not to believe it.

"Cui Xie, what did you say? Jingzhao...what are you talking about?"

Emperor Yongning simply doubted his own ears. How could such news come out of Jingzhao? It was the greatest absurdity in the world!

However……

Even though Cui Xie's face was pale and his body was trembling, he still stammered: "Your Majesty, this news has spread all over the capital, and the people are panicking. Please tell me as soon as possible!"

Mr. Cui Jie Cui knew very well that no matter where this news came from, if the rumors were not refuted as soon as possible and the matter was not settled as soon as possible, the people's hearts would be unsettled and the court would be unstable. Foreign enemies might even take the opportunity to cause trouble. The harm would be too great.

Therefore, he did not dare to delay and made the decision to enter the palace immediately.

Emperor Yongning fell silent, and his expression became visibly gloomy: "What... is going on? Why did such news come out?"

Come, come, the emperor finally asked the most important question!

Cui Xie knew that the key to this matter was here.

So, his two sides trembled, and he tried his best to remain calm and said: "Your Majesty, I went to investigate and the source of this matter lies in... lies in..."

He seemed to have summoned up all his courage, but when the words came to his lips, he was discouraged again. He only raised his head and looked at Emperor Yongning nervously. He did this several times, but he was still unable to say anything.

Upon seeing this, Emperor Yongning said in a deep voice: "Tell me the truth and I will forgive your guilt!"

"Yes, Emperor

"Come on..." Cui Xie lowered his head deeply and said in one breath as if he was risking his life: "Your Majesty, I have gone to investigate. The source of this matter lies with the Emperor!"

"Is it up to me?"

Emperor Yongning thought of the prince, Changding, the queen, and many people, but he never thought that the source was himself.

Cui Xie, what does this mean?

"Yes, Your Majesty, the source of this matter lies with you." Cui Xie still lowered his head, not afraid of death.

Anyway, something like this happened in Jingzhao City. As Shao Yin, he was guilty of negligence. If the emperor was determined to pursue it, it would be impossible to escape his involvement.

If we report what we discovered truthfully, we might be able to save something.

"Those who are spreading the news are saying that the emperor is already planning power for the prince. If the emperor's body had not been in an incurable condition, this would never have happened."

Cui Xie's talkativeness is the best among all the officials in Jingzhao.

He didn't use any gorgeous words or vivid descriptions when he spoke. His words could be said to be ordinary, but combined with his demeanor and expression, there was a wonderful power that made people easily convinced and able to enter.

Immerse yourself in it.

During this period, he saw Zheng Ji entering the palace with a whip in the Xuanzheng Hall. When he went back and told the story to the officials of Jingzhao Mansion, it attracted countless people to yearn for and admire Princess Changding.

When he was searching Lin's house, he only said a few words to Zheng Ji outside Lin's house, and Zheng Ji felt an inexplicable closeness and affection in his heart.

Right now, the same is true.

Through Cui Xie's description, Emperor Yongning knew the ins and outs of why this news appeared and why it spread.

The source is actually related to himself.

In order to allow the prince to successfully use Tutong Du Tong, he designed his youngest son to enter the prince's Zhanshi Mansion, and personally sent Xue Gong, the chief steward next to him, to deliver oral instructions.

As Zhongshu Sheren Shen Jingzong reported, he was still in his prime in the Spring and Autumn Period. If it weren't for his physical condition, how could he have planned so early?

This is one of the reasons why officials and people in Jingzhao speculate.

The second is the behavior at the Jiang family.

The fact that the Jiang family gave profits and money to the Xue family was not a secret among businessmen. Businessmen had the most sensitive sense of touch, and they smelled something unusual.

The Jiang family has the most favored Concubine Jiang, who is the most well-informed. Originally, the Jiang family had always kept to themselves, but now they are showing favor to the prince's family. The Jiang family must have known some news in advance - such as the news that the dragon's body was in poor condition, etc.

.

As a result, the businessmen were all speculating whether the Jiang family was seeking a way out for themselves. Although the Jiang family strongly denied it and dismissed it as nonsense, the businessmen still took action quickly.

What Cui Xie didn't say was that a distant relative of the Jiang family actually spent a lot of money to buy a batch of linen clothes, which made the merchants even more sure.qδ

At this time, the death of Zhou Meiren was once again mentioned by everyone.
