Master Tang was not worried about Master Yin who was chasing him. He didn't think Hou Ji could escape. This was in the capital, far away from Liangzhou. With just a small number of people, they wanted to escape. What were they thinking?
So he asked people to carry the patient in the room, and then brought Shi Shi and two other people, and then led Zhou Man and Bai Shan into the palace.
When they arrived at Taiji, Shangshu Feng and others had already entered the palace under the imperial edict.
Feng Shangshu and others were startled when they saw the person lying on the wooden board.
The emperor walked down and stared at the person for a while, then waved to Xiao Yuanzheng who was waiting aside and asked him to show it to him.
Xiao Yuan was checking his pulse. He frowned and thought for a long time before saying, "Your Majesty, this person's internal organs are weak and he is extremely susceptible to invasion by external evils. Other than that, I don't see any problems."
“Do you not see the problem, or do you see the problem but don’t know what the problem is?”
Xiao Yuanzheng said: "There is a problem, but I am not very talented and knowledgeable, so I don't know what the problem is."
Emperor: "But poisoning?"
Xiao Yuanzheng was startled and said quickly: "I have little talent and little knowledge. I really can't tell."
The emperor then looked at Man Bao. Zhou Man hesitated for a moment and then said: "It's not an internal disease, but caused by external evil, so I think he was poisoned."
The emperor then looked down at the man on the wooden board and remained silent for a while.
If Zhou Man didn't find out in advance, would the prince become like this in the future?
Just thinking about it, the emperor became angry, sat back behind the table, and showed the confession and the things found by Yin Li to Feng Shangshu and others.
Feng Shangshu and others had just entered the palace and had no idea what was going on. When they saw the file, they all opened their mouths.
At this time, the prince led the guards and had caught up with Hou Ji and others in the western suburbs.
When Hou Ji saw the prince and the guards, he immediately whipped his horse whip hard and ran away like crazy.
The prince and the others fell behind and ate a mouthful of dirt. They could only close their mouths tightly and quickly chase after them with their eyes slightly closed.
However, some guardsmen were not afraid of the flying dust and shouted directly: "Marquis Zuo Yu, Your Majesty is giving you an order. Do you want to rebel if you don't obey the order?"
Hou Ji ran away with his head down.
The prince was so angry that he simply took his bow and drew an arrow. However, he was also a man who had experienced battles, so he clung to the horse and hid.
The prince was feeling annoyed when an arrow passed behind him and hit one of the people directly. The man fell off his horse and the two horses behind him immediately became confused.
As the prince drove his horse to catch up, he looked back and saw that Yin Li had brought troops and horses to chase him at some point.
The prince felt relieved and turned to look at Hou Ji running for his life in front of him and sneered...
By the time the fighting in the western suburbs ended and someone came back to inform them, it was already past noon.
They seemed to have gone a long way and came back slower with the people they escorted.
The emperor looked at the hourglass and saw that Feng Shangshu and others had also finished reading the case, so he simply asked people to have lunch and had lunch first.
When Yin Li and the prince escort the people back, they may not have time for lunch.
Feng Shangshu and others often ate with the emperor, so they were used to it. After saluting, they sat carefully on the chairs.
Mr. Tang has been quiet since he entered Tai Chi. Unless the emperor asked him by name, he would never speak.
Bai Shan was even worse. Apart from saluting and saying a few words when he came in, he didn't say anything else.
The three of them were the youngest and sat silently at the back.
The emperor was not in a good mood. After the food was served, he frowned and picked the dishes. He didn't have much appetite, so he raised his head and looked at the people sitting on both sides.
At a glance, I saw three people sitting at the end eating with gusto.
The emperor looked at the three of them carefully, and then realized that Bai Shan and Zhou Man seemed to be wearing particularly bright clothes today, so he asked: "Did you dress up specially when you entered the palace?"
Man Bao paused for a moment and looked at Bai Shan. Bai Shan was silent for a moment and bowed back: "When you enter the palace to meet the saint, you don't dare to lose your etiquette."
Zhou Man went to the palace every day and had to see the queen every once in a while. He was not seen often, and she did not see her dressed up specially.
He looked at the two of them suspiciously.
Mr. Tang felt a little unable to eat under the emperor's gaze, so he put down his chopsticks and bowed and added: "Your Majesty, they were suddenly invited over by the minister. At that time, they were planning to go to Xuandu Temple to see the peach blossoms."
The emperor sighed and said: "The light is just right now, and the peach blossoms in Xuandu Temple are indeed worth admiring."
He glanced at Bai Shan and Zhou Man and asked, "You are engaged, right?"
The two of them bowed and said "yes" together.
The emperor nodded and said nothing more. He nodded with his chopsticks and said, "Let's have a meal."
The emperor's sudden surge of sadness only lasted for a while. After Yin Li and the prince escorted Hou Ji back to the palace, his sadness dissipated and only anger remained.
Hou Ji ran a long way, and in the end most of his godsons who were following him died. He was also knocked off his horse by Yin Li, and then he was taken to the palace.
The emperor personally interrogated Hou Ji, and Yin Li and others, including the prince, retreated outside.
From time to time, the emperor's roar and Hou Ji's cry could be heard in Tai Chi.
Hou Ji cried and lay on the ground, trembling all over, "Your Majesty, I am guilty. I am so obsessed that I had no idea what I was doing..."
The emperor was so angry that he knocked over the iron box on the table, and the stone inside rolled to the side of Hou Ji. He took two steps forward, kicked him on the shoulder, and kicked him out, "You don't know
What are you thinking about? How can you plan carefully and send this thing to the prince step by step? "
Hou Ji got up from the ground and knelt down again, kowtowed repeatedly and said: "I'm a ghost who's lost my mind. I'm a ghost who's lost my mind. Your Majesty, forgive me. Your Majesty, forgive me..."
The emperor's face was serious and he asked: "Why did you send people to Luozhou and Xiangzhou?"
Hou Ji's face turned pale, his face was shaking, and he was completely speechless.
The emperor understood it as soon as he saw it. He closed his eyes and said, "Come here, take him down."
"Your Majesty, Prince Gong detained my men and did not agree to form an alliance with me." He seemed to have anticipated his fate and wanted to do something at the end. Before the guards could take him off, he shouted quickly:
"Prince Gong doesn't know about this, nor do my wife and children. I beg your Majesty to let them live..."
Hou Ji was taken away.
The prince also heard his cry, his face was cold but he said nothing. Only he knew in his heart whether he believed it or not.
Man Bao followed them in. The emperor had calmed down his anger and turned to ask Zhou Man, "Can you detoxify them?"
When Manbao was in Jingzhao Mansion, he asked Keke to scan the three of them, and he paid a lot of points.
She glanced at the stones scattered on the ground, thought for a moment and then said: "It is impossible to completely cure them. Their... bones and blood have been affected. It is best not to have children in the future. After the poison is detoxified, they can live like ordinary people."
Then his eyes fell on the man lying on the wooden board, and he whispered: "He can't be cured."
The emperor also noticed that the man on the ground could hardly even hear his breathing.
