Hongli did not order one of the Taoist priests to be taken down to be executed. Instead, he ordered Xiao Wu to invite Zhou Minghua. As an imperial physician, the latter was good at saving people as well as killing people. A small silver needle arrived.
In his hands, it is enough to kill someone.
After Zhou Minghua confirmed that both of them were in good health and had no illness or pain, not long after Zhou Minghua inserted the silver needle into the acupuncture point, the little Taoist foamed at the mouth, rolled his eyes and fell to the ground twitching, waiting for him to stop twitching.
At that moment, there was no breath between the wings of his nose; almost at the same moment, another Taoist priest showed a weird smile, and immediately did all kinds of weird things, as if he was possessed by an evil spirit or went crazy.
After taking his pulse, Zhou Minghua showed a look of surprise and withdrew his hand and said: "Your Majesty, this person's pulse is chaotic. It is exactly the same as the pulses of several patients with epilepsy that I have diagnosed before. However, those people all had their illnesses for a reason, so
People usually get sick suddenly without warning, but this is the first time I’ve seen it, it’s really weird.”
Hong Zhou glanced at Guang Chengzi and said, "Zhou Yuanzheng, are you sure this person's illness is not fake, or that he has been drugged?"
Zhou Minghua cupped his hands and said: "To tell you that the symptoms can be faked, but the pulse condition is absolutely impossible to fake. I can be sure that he is indeed suffering from madness. As for prescribing the medicine, I checked the pulses of both of them from the beginning.
There was no sign of any drugging."
Hongli's eyes flashed slightly and he said: "I understand, please step back." After Zhou Minghua left, he walked up to Guang Chengzi, stared at him for a moment, and then said word by word: "You'd better promise
All this is true, otherwise I will not let anyone go in Ziyun Temple!"
Guang Chengzi's expression froze slightly, then he lowered his head and said, "The emperor saw all this with his own eyes. How could it be false?"
Hongli withdrew his gaze and said: "Take him out. As for the dead one... I will send someone back to Ziyun Temple so that you can give birth to him and bury him."
After they were the only two people left in the palace, Hong Zhou said: "Does the emperor really believe what Guang Chengzi said?"
"After one person died, the other person went crazy for no reason. You saw this with your own eyes. It was neither drugged nor disguised. I have no reason not to believe it." After speaking, Hongli stroked his forehead and said: "Okay, this
Let’s end the matter here, and don’t mention it again.”
Hong Zhou hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but said: "Brother Chen always feels that this matter is not that simple. On the one hand, Yun Zhongzi suddenly passed away, and on the other hand, Guang Chengzi brought two Taoist priests into the palace. These two things..."
Before he finished speaking, Hongli slammed the table and shouted: "I asked you not to mention it again. Are you deaf? Get out!"
Hong Zhou was startled for a moment, then looked at Hong Li with a complex expression, bowed and stepped back. After he left, Hong Li murmured: "It can't be a lie, Yong Cun will be fine, definitely!"
Once Yun Zhongzi died, exchanging lives for lives became Yongxing's only hope for survival. He was unwilling and did not dare to doubt that all this was false.
Wei Jingxuan was removed from the Jade Certificate, removed from the Golden Book, Yongsuo was tortured in the Shenxing Department, Li Jifeng committed suicide, and the Li family and the Wei family were all executed. At this point, the matter was almost completely over, but some people noticed that there was still something going on.
Missed one.
In the afternoon of that day, Hongli was reading the military intelligence report sent from the border gate. Xiaowu came in and said: "Your Majesty, Concubine Xin wants to see you."
Hongli closed the memorial he had read in his hand and said, "Let her come in."
"Hey!" Not long after Xiao Wu retreated, Concubine Xin came in holding Xiao Hua Zi's hand and said meekly: "I see you, Your Majesty. May Your Majesty be blessed."
"Without courtesy." After signaling Xin Bin to get up, Hongli said, "Zi Yu comes to see me now. What do you mean?"
"Returning to the Emperor, my concubine..." Xin Bin raised her head, glanced at him, and said softly: "I'm here because of the Wei family."
Hearing this, Hongli's face turned cold and he said coldly: "Why, Zi Yu is going to plead for that bitch?"
Concubine Xin quickly lowered her eyes and said: "The Wei family has committed a heinous crime, and I would never dare to plead for mercy. On the contrary, I can't understand why the emperor spared Wei Xiuyan when he clearly ordered everyone in the Wei family to be killed." ?”
Hongli's eyes flashed and he said: "Why, do I still need to ask for your opinion on what I am doing now?"
Hearing this, Concubine Xin quickly said in fear: "I don't dare. I just feel that the Wei family, together with the Wei family, deceived the emperor and did many evil things. They are not qualified to be forgiven by the emperor."
Hongli glanced at her and said: "Wei Xiuyan is now He Kun's concubine. In addition, Wei Xiuyan was not involved in the affair of the bitch, so I will spare her life."
"But now many people in the palace are discussing this matter, saying that your Majesty... you... are being unfair. I am worried that it will have an impact on you, so I boldly spoke out and asked your Majesty to forgive me." After speaking, she continued: "Your Majesty, I know that you rely on Mr. Zhonghe, but Wei Xiuyan is just a concubine placed outside the house with Mr. To put it bluntly, she is nameless and has no role, and she is not even included in the family. I believe it I won't pay too much attention to this woman.
"I have made my own decision on this matter. Please step back." Faced with Hongli's words, Xin Bin gritted her teeth, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please think again!"
Hongli looked ugly and said: "Don't you understand what I say? Back off!"
Xin Bin's face turned pale, with a look of fear on her brows, but she still insisted on kneeling there and said again: "Your Majesty, please think twice!"
Seeing that Hong Li's expression was getting worse and worse, Xiao Wu walked to Xin Bin and said softly: "My queen, please step aside according to the emperor's words. As for Wei Xiuyan's matter, we can find an opportunity to talk to the emperor later. If the stalemate continues like this, , if the emperor is really angry, it will not be a good thing for you."
Xin Bin bit her lip, but still insisted: "Please, Emperor..." Just after saying two words, she suddenly fell to the ground, which shocked Xiao Wu, and he and Xiao Huazi quickly helped her up. Her face was pale, her eyes were closed, and she showed no response no matter how they called her. Xiao Wu quickly said: "Your Majesty, Concubine Xin has fainted."
Hongli's patience was already on the verge of reaching its limit, but unexpectedly something like this suddenly happened. After hesitating for a moment, he walked down and picked up the unconscious Xin Bin and said, "Send the imperial doctor to Dong Nuan Pavilion."
"Hey!" Xiao Wu responded and hurriedly went down to call the imperial doctor. After a while, Wang Yuanping followed Xiao Wu to Dong Nuan Pavilion. As soon as his fingers touched Xin Bin's wrist, a strange color appeared. After careful examination, He came to Hongli, cupped his hands and said, "Let me tell you, Your Majesty, Empress Xinbin just had a temporary mood swing that caused her to faint. It's not a serious problem. On the contrary, she is very happy."
Honglixuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? Where does the joy come from?"
Wang Yuanping said with a smile on his face: "If I return to the emperor, Empress Xinbin is already two months pregnant."

There is another chapter that will be updated before 12 o'clock. I am working hard to write it.
In addition, I would like to advertise that the new book is almost ready and is already under review. It should be available in a few days. By then, everyone should work hard to collect it. The following is an introduction to the new book.
"The Empress of the Golden Age" (tentative title)
She was a princess of the Sui Dynasty. She had a prominent status, but she kept her name anonymous. She changed her appearance and entered the prefect's mansion as a maid. There, she met Wu Meixue, a dancer who looked exactly like her under the mask. Was it a coincidence or there was another hidden secret?
?
When she stabbed the prefect Li Yuan with a knife in front of all the guests, but failed and was rounded up, by some strange combination of circumstances, she was able to use Wu Meixue's identity to stay in the prefect's mansion and wait for an opportunity to assassinate her.
He is the second son of the Li family, handsome and resourceful. He is dedicated to hunting down the assassin, but he doesn't realize that the assassin is always by his side.
In the end, it was no longer clear whether they loved each other more or calculated more. The only thing that was certain was that he always remembered the vows he had made!
"I, Li Shimin, am willing to protect Yang Huanxin for the rest of her life, whether she is a princess or a daughter of a subjugated country, I will never change this oath."
