The fact that the prince was deposed because he was suspected of murdering the emperor was like a meteorite falling from the sky, causing the ground in the capital to shake for a long time.
How could Aunt Anise bear such a result? In the past, she would have fainted a long time ago. After all, she had to pretend to be weak.
But where is the need now?
Together with Yin Ruxing of the Zhang family, we waited for Lord Yin to return at Mrs. Yin’s Qiushui Garden.
The Marquis of Yin went to sit with Mr. Zhang from Duke Huiguo and other courtiers for a while, so he came back late.
As soon as he came back, he was led to Qiu Shuiyuan by the housekeeper. When he saw them all there, he couldn't help but sigh.
Aunt Hui was the first one who couldn't help but said, "Master Hou, are those rumors spread outside? Are they all false? How can the prince be deposed? This is simply impossible!"
As one of the people who witnessed the changes in the palace with his own eyes, Marquis Yin knew that such a big thing could not be hidden. He couldn't help but sigh, "The dethroning of His Royal Highness is such a big deal, and you can spread rumors casually!"
Aunt Hui said: "But how is this possible? How could His Royal Highness murder the emperor? The emperor has always preferred him as the prince, and the father-son relationship between him and the emperor has always been talked about by officials and courtiers. Let's
It is simply untenable for the prince to plot to kill the emperor!"
"Yes, how could the prince murder the emperor? This is simply a big joke. I don't even believe it!" Zhang said.
Yin Ruxing couldn't hide the worry on her face, she said: "Dad, what is going on? How could such a thing happen? What happened in the palace today?"
"The whole family is waiting for you to say it, so you should say it!" Old Mrs. Yin couldn't help but said.
Marquis Yin waved his hands for all the people to go down, and then said softly: "When we went to court today, we were doing well, but the emperor suddenly came out with a sword, and as soon as he came out, he pointed at His Highness the Crown Prince and scolded him for being a traitor, and even
I want to kill His Highness the Crown Prince!"
As soon as these words came out, a group of female relatives all turned pale and asked, "Is there such a thing?"
"That's right!" Mr. Yin said with fear. "The emperor seems to have changed. He is extremely violent and irritable, and his actions are ruthless. It seems that in his eyes, the prince is no longer his son, but his enemy."
, today if uncle Guo hadn’t pounced on the sword, the seriously injured and dying person might have been the prince! And now uncle Guo is still seriously injured and unconscious. Fortunately, the old doctor Tong is here, otherwise he would have almost failed.
Saved!"
Upon hearing this, all the family members turned pale.
Especially for Mrs. Zhang, she couldn't help but feel depressed. She had actually guessed that the Emperor was really manipulated by Prince Li!
"But how could the prince be deposed for no reason? This is a major event that will shake the country!" Aunt Anni said.
"Yes, deposing the prince is such a big deal. The prince has always been famous for being wise. What big mistake did he make that made the emperor decree to depose the prince? Are all the civil and military officials just watching?" Mrs. Zhang
road.
Marquis Yin also said: "After the queen died of illness, the emperor was in a coma and was poisoned by a strange poison. That strange poison is called datura poison. It is an extremely rare and rare chronic poison. Once the poison penetrates deep into the internal organs,
People there will be completely reduced to the living dead!"
"What does that have to do with the prince? Could it be that the prince would poison the emperor? This is simply impossible!" said Aunt Anise.
Marquis Yin sighed: "We also thought it was impossible, but Ying Yi, the leader of the Emperor's Shadow Guards, personally conducted a thorough investigation and found out that Xiao Liuzi, who cooked the medicine for the Emperor, was poisoned and murdered. He kept saying that the prince instigated him.
Yes, the prince was so angry that he kicked him without controlling the intensity, and he actually kicked the little six to death."
"A little eunuch who dares to bite the prince deserves to die!" Mrs. Yin said angrily.
"That Xiao Liuzi is the only witness. If he dies, wouldn't the Crown Prince's accusation be confirmed!" Mrs. Zhang said hurriedly.
Aunt Fennel and Yin Ruxing both looked as white as paper.
Marquis Yin nodded, "This matter was caused by the prince's impulsiveness. Once Xiao Liuzi died, the only witness was gone. He died at the feet of His Highness the prince, which made people think that the prince committed murder and silenced him. The emperor was so angry that he
I gave the order to depose the prince."
"It would be too arbitrary to depose the prince based on just one eunuch's words! What about the officials? Do the officials, both civil and military, just follow the emperor's will? Didn't those ministers stand up to stop it?" Aunt Anise was worried.
road.
"Why not? None of Wang Taishi, Liu Xiangye and others stood up to stop him, but the emperor's temperament changed drastically. He was determined that the prince was plotting to kill him, and he couldn't listen at all. Not only was the prince deposed, but the emperor also stood up for the prince of Li County on the spot.
, restored his throne, and said that he had done a great job in rescuing him!" Lord Yin sighed.
"Since Prince Li was pardoned, there has been no peace in the capital. I think this matter is most likely to have something to do with him!" Yin Ruxing gritted his teeth.
"Xing'er, be careful what you say!" Marquis Yin and Mrs. Zhang both said immediately.
Old Mrs. Yin gritted her teeth and said, "Is what Xing'er said wrong? Isn't the initiator of all this King Li?"
"Mother, it's okay for us to know the truth in our hearts, but we must not speak it out for fear of disaster!" Lord Yin said hurriedly.
Mrs. Zhang also said hurriedly: "Yes, the situation in the court is unpredictable now, and we must strictly restrain our subordinates. We must not be caught at this time, otherwise our Yinhou Mansion may confiscate the family and exterminate the clan overnight."
between!"
Everyone present was heartbroken.
Lord Yin took Aunt Hui back, and Mrs. Zhang also left with Yin Ruxing.
Mrs. Yin just sighed and said: "I thought I was going up a ladder to the sky, but I didn't expect it to be a bottomless abyss, or the bottomless kind. If I had known that this day would happen, we should...should...ah,
It’s too late to say this!”
"Old madam, what should we do now?" The mother-in-law couldn't help but be afraid. This might be a little bad, but it would mean the whole house was ransacked!
"What else can I do? It's already like this. I can only go on with my eyes closed. Now I can only hope that the prince will have a chance to rise. However, the prince has been popular for so many years. He has been the regent for a long time, and the forces in the court
It's absolutely unusual, how could he be suppressed so easily? King Li can still come out even after he is deposed, can't the prince do the same!" Mrs. Yin said.
The mother-in-law nodded when she heard this, "The old lady is wise!"
Mrs. Yin sighed, "These concubines are just capable of causing trouble. They are all pretentious and want to be like a dragon and a phoenix, and they don't care whether they have that fate! I am already at this age, and I still have to worry about these things. I am so
