The Legend of Rebirth of the Demon Empress

Chapter 114 Implicated
After Xie Xi's explanation, Lin Zisu finally understood the cause and effect.

The status of civil servants in the Dayan Dynasty was superior, and there were endless party disputes in the past dynasties. Since Emperor Ruizongwen, with the power of the cabinet, the ministers of the court formed cliques for private interests and recruited each other, so that court affairs were repeatedly delayed.

But her father was an idle official, and he was also involved. Lin Zisu asked softly, "Our Lin family will be implicated by the Luo family. Did you already know, Your Highness?"

Xie Xi nodded and replied: "Yes, originally my plan was to let you live in the palace for a month, and then let you out of the palace when the party struggle calms down. At this time of life and death, you and Senior Sun must protect your father. If there is any problem with the father, you, me, your Lin family, and the Luo family will all die together."

Lin Zisu didn't expect to get this answer. She had mixed feelings in her heart, and couldn't tell whether it was joy or anger.

If according to what Xie Xi said, he tried his best to get himself into the palace, is it really to keep himself away from party disputes?

If the Lin family is in turmoil, but he is hiding in the palace, how can he be at ease?

Lin Zisu smiled mockingly, and said, "If something happens to our family, what can I do in the palace? Is your highness trying to overthrow my Lin family's nest and leave me an egg?"

"Ever since the Luo family lost the backing of Prince Wei's Mansion, Luo Xiu's position as minister is already in jeopardy. Now that Luo Ying has offended King Wei again, the people in the court will get rid of them quickly. This time, it's up to Emperor Father Would you like to protect him?"

"Susu, you don't have to think about it too much. As long as the father is alive, all the tricks of ghosts and monsters will not work. If you want to ensure the safety of your family, there is only one way."

Xie Xi didn't finish his sentence completely, but the crux of the problem was already very clear, as long as the emperor didn't have any accidents, the entire court situation could be controlled.

Luo Xiu is the emperor who has just been promoted to the position of Shangshu. With the emperor around, he will not be allowed to lose power.

Lin Zisu didn't wait for Xie Xi to say it, and said, "I know, you must ensure His Majesty's safety."

Xie Xi didn't cling to Lin Zisu any more this time. After explaining a few words, he hurried to Qianqing Palace.

The emperor seemed to be disappointed with Sun Duzhong, so he only asked Lin Zisu to go for the pulse diagnosis in the afternoon.

When Lin Zisu entered Qianqing Palace, there was only one eunuch left in the hall, and that eunuch Lin Zisu had met once before, and it turned out to be Huang Sheng.

The emperor stood quietly in front of the half-open window, and after hearing Lin Zisu's greeting, he walked back slowly and sat down on the soft couch.

After Lin Zisu finished her ceremony, she was about to take the emperor's pulse when she heard the emperor's deep voice: "Little girl of the Lin family, don't take the pulse for now, let's talk with me."

Lin Zisu silently agreed, only to hear the emperor continue to ask: "Little girl, I know you are a sensible child, you can tell me the truth, what is wrong with me? There should be someone in the next administration." Prepare."

Lin Zisu didn't expect the emperor to ask such a question, so she raised her head and looked at the emperor, who just turned around to look at her, and the emperor smiled again and said, "The people in the Imperial Hospital and your master are old fritters, they If you say that I will take care of it for a few days, I don't really believe it."

Seeing Lin Zisu's hesitation, the emperor's voice turned cold, and he said sharply: "Now is the time when the country is in danger, girl, if you have half a heart of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, you should tell me the truth!"

Lin Zisu was still hesitant at first, how to explain the inside story to the emperor, since the emperor asked this question, there is no harm in saying it directly.

Before she spoke, she took a look at Huang Sheng, and the emperor said: "Girl, you can rest assured that it is, I let Huang Sheng come here today, just to prevent the wall from having ears."

Lin Zisu said in a low voice: "Your Majesty didn't suffer from any disease, but a chronic poison that hurt the Gallbladder Meridian of Foot Shaoyang, so he couldn't get sick. It's just that the person who poisoned was very light, so the previous symptoms It's not obvious, judging from the time, His Majesty has been poisoned for at least three years."

As soon as her words fell, Huang Sheng knelt down in a hurry, and said in panic: "I have been with Your Majesty for a long time these few years, and my lack of protection has poisoned Your Majesty. Please forgive me."

The emperor said coldly: "I didn't ask you to come here today to plead guilty. Even if you were really guilty, didn't you think about making up for it?"

Huang Sheng lowered his head, keeping it close to the marble slab. The emperor ignored him, and continued to say to Lin Zisu, "Girl, keep talking."

Lin Zisu immediately told the emperor everything she knew, including the symptoms of Luo Ying's poisoning.

The more the emperor listened, the more serious he became. When he heard that Luo Ying's symptoms were similar to his own, he couldn't help but interrupt Lin Zisu: "You mean, the poison that Luo Ying of the Luo family was poisoned by is the son of Prince Wei. down?"

"That's right. When Luo Ying went to the Procuratorate to sue, the courtier was there. The poisoning matter, the courtier can be sure that it was the work of Prince Wei's son."

The emperor suddenly stood up, stood there for a few breaths, and walked around the hall.

"I didn't expect, I really didn't expect that it would be him."

The emperor muttered to himself while walking, and suddenly asked: "Girl, what kind of poison is in my heart? Can the person who poisoned me be found out?"

Lin Zisu was about to tell the whole story, but remembering Master's expression of hesitating to speak, he hesitated for a moment and said, "The poison your Majesty poisoned is very secret, and my daughter has never seen such a poison. As for the poisoner Man, His Majesty must have already thought about it."

A smile finally appeared on the emperor's face, and he said, "I still haven't kept this from you, girl, do you know why I let your master go today?"

Lin Zisu also hadn't figured it out, Xie Xi had made it clear, but for some reason, Master was safe and sound.

When she heard the emperor's initiative to ask, she wanted to know the reason, but she said: "Naturally, it's because His Majesty is kind, and he doesn't want to be as knowledgeable as a courtier's daughter."

"I let Sun Duzhong go, you don't have to thank me, if you want to thank me, please thank Court Envoy Gong."

Seeing that Lin Zisu came in without knowing it, the emperor snorted coldly, and said, "Gong Xiancai came to me early in the morning to complain to me, telling you that you two, master and apprentice, were useless. Hmph, that's all for Sun Duzhong, you girl! How can he be as smart as Gong Xian? After reading your prescription yesterday, he had no objection, but I used your medicine, and he came to sue, what is it if he is guilty of guilt?"

Lin Zisu said with a smile: "Your Majesty loves me so much, I am really flattered. But the envoy Gong is so anxious, it's not because he has a guilty conscience, it's all thanks to His Highness King Dun."

Hearing Lin Zisu's initiative to mention Xie Xi, the emperor immediately became interested, and asked, "Oh, what's wrong with Xiaosi?"
