Chapter seven hundred and ninety nine poisonous wine
Xie Mingxi whispered a few words into Sheng Hong's ear.
Sheng Hong nodded slightly and deliberately said in a tone of admiration and awe: "The Queen is resourceful, wise and decisive, I am far behind!"
Xie Mingxi glanced at Sheng Hong and said with a half-smile: "Your Majesty just said that I am cunning, cunning and calculating. There is no need to be obedient and flatter me."
The couple laughed quietly.
Thinking of what he had to do next, Sheng Hong's mood was complicated and subtle, and he was not at all relaxed.
However, as Empress Dowager Yu said, he will pursue his own affairs in his position. Since he has assumed the important responsibility of the emperor, there are some things that he cannot avoid even if he wants to.
"Mingxi," Sheng Hong suddenly lowered his voice: "I have tried so hard to hide it from the truth, but I don't know if the second brother and the fifth brother will appreciate it in the future. Will the second sister-in-law and the fifth sister-in-law be grateful, or will they hate us?"
Xie Mingxi said softly: "It is enough for you and me to have a clear conscience!"
Sheng Hong nodded and took a deep breath.
…
Half an hour later, Sheng Hong went to the Tianlao in person.
The vassal princes and concubines must adhere to the Queen Mother's decree before they can enter the heavenly prison. As the emperor, Sheng Hong can enter the heavenly prison at any time if he wants to, and no one dares to stop him.
Dozens of personal guards surrounded Sheng Hong and entered the prison. Zhou Quan held a tray in his hand, with an exquisite wine flask and three wine glasses placed on the tray.
Everyone could tell what was in the jug at a glance.
Sheng Hong stopped a few meters away from the Tianlao.
The three feudal princes who were locked up in different cells had different reactions when they saw Sheng Hong.
The King of Ningxia stared intently at the dragon robe on Sheng Hong.
King Lu looked slumped and numb.
But the King of Fujian raised his voice and shouted: "Seventh brother, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for many days!" After seeing Zhou Quan holding the wine pot in his hand, the King of Fujian actually laughed: "Seventh brother is really kind.
.He was actually willing to let several brothers keep their bodies intact."
Isn't it?
Assassinating the emperor is a serious crime involving death by a thousand cuts. Letting them drink a glass of poisonous wine and go on the road is really an advantage for them.
The King of Min thought he was smiling freely and freely, but in fact it was sad and sad. The feeling of waiting for death was really unbearable, and he wished he could die early and be reincarnated early. But when death was imminent, he realized how heavy the word death was.
Sheng Hong suppressed the complex emotions surging in his heart. He first walked to King Min's cell, ordered someone to open the lock and remove all the chains from King Min's body.
Then, Sheng Hong poured a glass of wine himself and sent it to the King of Fujian: "Fifth brother, I'm sorry. I didn't want to kill you. But you committed a heinous crime. The queen mother also refused to issue a decree to pardon you. My only choice is
All I can do is save you from suffering."
These words were spoken not only to the vassal kings, but also to the guards in the prison.
The palace has always been the place where news travels fastest.
When Sheng Hong mentioned Empress Dowager Yu at this time, everyone couldn't help but think that it was Empress Dowager Yu's idea to give poisonous wine to the feudal king... This was the strategy used by Xie Mingxi, whether it was verbal hints or framed, in short, Empress Dowager Yu couldn't even think about it.
Stay out of it.
Empress Dowager Yu has no choice but to bear this bad reputation.
King Min took the poisoned wine with some trembling, a glint of water flashed in his eyes, and he begged in a low voice: "Seventh brother, after I die, please spare Xiaoxiao and Brother Lin."
Sheng Hong looked at the King of Fujian deeply: "Okay, I promise you."
The King of Min closed his eyes, pushed back the gleam of water, raised his head and drank the poisonous wine.
The poisonous wine was quite poisonous. After just a few breaths, the Min king's face turned blue and he fell down stiffly.
…
King Lu's plea before his death was almost the same as that of King Min: "Seventh brother, I beg you, please spare your life and allow me, a pair of children, to grow up. In the future, send them to the border, outside the Great Wall, as long as you allow them
It’s good to be alive.”
Sheng Hong nodded.
King Lu rushed to the underworld with a smile on his face.
In the end, it was the turn of the King of Ningxia.
All the poisonous wine was poured by Sheng Hong himself. This last glass was no exception.
Therefore, no one could see the subtle movements in Sheng Hong's hands. After touching the wine pot, his right hand moved on the lid without leaving any trace.
The King of Ningxia's face was gloomy, and the words he spat out were even more like ice: "Kill if you want, there is no need to be pretentious. Li Xiang is like mother and son. You can spare it if you want, and kill if you want."
Sheng Hong showed no pity or pity for the King of Ningxia, and said coldly: "If you say so, I will help you. I will let the three of you and your family get together in Huangquan tonight."
The King of Ningxia regretted it as soon as he said it.
His quick talk cost him the lives of Li Xiangru and Brother Ting in vain. As long as he bowed his head to show weakness and begged the King of Fujian and King Lu, perhaps Sheng Hong would let Li Xiangru and his son go for the sake of his false reputation for kindness. Give him
Leave a bloodline...
However, after all was said and done, he would never grovel before death, so he reached out to take the poisonous wine from Sheng Hong's hand and drank it into his stomach.
The burning pain in my stomach spreads rapidly.
The king of Ningxia soon became poisonous, his face turned blue, black blood overflowed from his mouth, and he suddenly fell to the ground.
If you look carefully, you can find that the death conditions of King Lu and King Min were not exactly the same. King Ningxia's face was more twisted and stiff, and black blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth.
The faces of the King of Fujian and the King of Lu were equally blue, but there was no blood on the corners of their mouths, and there was no frightening deathly blue color.
However, the light in the sky prison was already dim, and when the feudal king was executed, it was Sheng Hong himself who took action. The guards in the sky prison had neither the qualifications nor the courage to peek in.
No one noticed the subtle differences.
Sheng Hongzhuangruo stood sadly for a long time, and then sighed: "Brothers have gone underground, and they can be reunited with their father and brother. I only hope that you will not resent my mother and queen, and don't resent me."
…
Within half an hour, the news that the feudal princes had died from drinking poisonous wine was delivered to Queen Mother Yu.
Sheng Hong's lamentations naturally reached the ears of Empress Dowager Yu word for word.
A suffocating breath was stuck in Queen Mother Yu's throat. Queen Mother Yu was so angry that she slapped the table hard: "This bastard!"
The maids were as silent as a cicada, no one dared to raise their head and say a word.
I also knew that the bastard Empress Dowager Yu was scolding was none other than Emperor Jianye Shenghong. When he executed the vassal king in the sky prison, he never forgot "Empress Dowager Yu". Once the news spread, everyone would definitely spread rumors that it was Empress Dowager Yu.
Determined to give poisonous wine to the feudal princes.
Empress Dowager Yu will have to bear the blame, even if she doesn't.
Zhilan forced herself to persuade her: "Please calm down, the Queen Mother. The Emperor always mentions the Queen Mother, perhaps out of admiration and for no other purpose..."
As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she was scolded by Queen Mother Yu: "The Ai family is not confused yet. They can see clearly and think clearly. There is no need for you to talk too much!"
Zhilan had no choice but to plead guilty and shut up.
Before evening, Princess Changping entered the palace, met Empress Dowager Yu, and asked: "Is it really the Empress Dowager's idea to give poisonous wine to the feudal princes?"
