Shengpingle

Chapter 126
Xu Mao died, and the double-headed dragon tattoo of Lian's children did not appear on Nian Yu's shoulder, but Nian Yu was still in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, which meant something self-evident.

The noble concubine of Jiufang washed her face, and then used a blindfold sewn with medicinal herbs to make her red and swollen eyes look watery as usual, and asked to see Zheng Hedi.

The blindfold was a prescription given to Nian Yu when she first entered the palace, and she had to put it on almost every day at that time.

Then, for many years, she didn't use it again, and now she uses it again.

Zheng Hedi didn't turn her away, and patiently explained to her, "It's like this in all cases, the evidence is insufficient, you can't arbitrarily convict, but you can't arbitrarily acquitted either.

I have sent Jin Yiwei to Fuzhou to collect evidence, and when the witness evidence from Fuzhou comes and proves that Nianyu is not a remnant of the Lian family, he will be able to come back."

Concubine Jiufang bit her lips, "But my concubine heard people say that your majesty would rather kill the wrong one than let it go."

Zheng Hedi was furious, "Who is talking nonsense?"

"That's what everyone in the palace says. If the concubines go for a walk in the imperial garden, at least seven or eight people in the palace can say that."

The noble concubine Jiufang raised her head and looked up at Emperor Zhenghe, her beautiful face was full of panic and confusion, "Your Majesty, they are all saying that even if Nian Yu is not a remnant of the Lian family, he will surely die this time.

Your Majesty, if Nian Yu is really the remnant of the Lian family, he will surely die.

Even if the emperor doesn't kill him, the concubines dare not ask him to come back to serve the emperor.

But if he is not, your majesty, you kill him, your majesty, you, what will you do if you lose your head in the future? "

Zheng Hedi's expression turned cold, "Are you pleading for him?"

Concubine Jiufang was afraid that she would show her flaws, so she threw herself into his arms to cover her face, "Your Majesty, if he is a traitor to the party, my concubine will never intercede with him.

But now they all said that he didn't have the imprint of the Lian family's children on him, why didn't the emperor let him go? "

Zheng Hedi reluctantly patted her on the shoulder, "I have already said just now, it's not that I won't let him go, it's just that we have to take this step in the trial of the case, waiting for further evidence collection."

"While we're waiting, can't we let him come out first? Although Chenqie doesn't understand, she understands very well in her heart. He hasn't been in charge these years, how can Chenqie, Mancheng, and Brother Zhao be so peaceful and comfortable—"

Zheng Hedi pushed her away impatiently, "It's my protection that you can be safe and comfortable! I'll teach you to put it all on the head of a slave!

Okay, you go back first, you, a woman, don't meddle in the affairs of the country! "

"The emperor protects her, but Nianyu also put in a lot of effort!

Not to mention anything else, without him, Mancheng and Brother Zhao would never have been born! "

Emperor Zhenghe has been worrying about Nianyu recently, and he became even more impatient after hearing this. Just as he was about to drink her away, a little eunuch ran in scrambling, knelt down on his head, and cried, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! No! Alright! Second Prince, Second Prince—"

He couldn't stop crying when he said this, but he couldn't continue.

Concubine Jiufang covered her heart with one hand, and firmly grasped Zheng Hedi's sleeve with the other. Her lips moved again and again, but she couldn't make a sound.

Emperor Zhenghe sternly reprimanded, "What happened to Brother Zhao? Tell me clearly!"

The little eunuch kowtowed heavily again, choking loudly, "The second prince, and the two little eunuchs who served the second prince, were all pushed into the Taiye Pond, and just floated up!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Zhenghe heard a loud bang beside him, but it was Concubine Jiufang who fell heavily to the ground, her forehead hit the floor, and a large amount of blood smeared out immediately.

Zheng Hedi looked at the glaring blood stains, and a thought flashed through his mind like thunder, she directed and acted to kill Brother Zhao by herself!

So that he would know that Changchun Palace cannot live without Nianyu!

So that he can compromise and release Nianyu back!

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Come quickly! Your Majesty has fainted!"

The little eunuch stepped forward to help Concubine Jiufang, and among those who dared to strangle her, she looked pale and lifeless as if she was dead.

The miserable cry of the little eunuch broke through the confusion in front of him, and Zheng Hedi came to his senses.

Brother Zhao is her and Nianyu's biggest reliance, even if she is ruthless enough to kill her own child, she will choose Mancheng, or the newly born mistress, not Brother Zhao!

If Brother Zhao is gone, then she really has nothing!

How can a baby who is still in its infancy compete with Donggong?

"Order the imperial guards to guard the gates of the palaces, and no one is allowed to move without my order!"

Emperor Zhenghe glanced at the noble concubine Jiufang who was paralyzed in the arms of the little eunuch, ordered to guard the imperial study, and ran out, brother Zhao, his brother Zhao——

The imperial study room is not close to the Taiye Pond, Zheng Hedi couldn't wait to call the imperial chariot, and ran quickly, when he saw Xiao Mingzhao's swollen and whitish corpse, he staggered suddenly and fell to his knees.

Brother Zhao!
On the way he ran, although he was anxious and sad, there was always a faint sense of unreality. How could his Brother Zhao die?
He understood what the concubine Jiufang said.

That little girl is neither smart nor scheming, even if she is under his protection, Changchun Palace will not be able to avoid those open and hidden arrows at all if she is not Nianyu!

He knows!

So these days, he deliberately strengthened the protection of Changchun Palace and his children. How could Brother Zhao be killed in less than ten days after Nianyu left?
impossible!
Those people are not so bold, dare to commit crimes against the wind!

But now Xiao Mingzhao's lifeless, blue-gray face was exposed in front of him, telling him clearly that under his heavy protection, his most beloved second son died!
He died so easily and silently, he didn't even know it wasn't the corpse floating up!

Zheng Hedi felt as if his head had exploded, the pain was so painful that he wished he could smash his head open and cut his heart open!

At first he thought it was because he was too distressed and had hallucinations, but soon he realized that he had a headache!
Nianyu told me to eat a light diet, drink less alcohol, and worry less, and it is best to avoid great joy and great sorrow!
Brother Zhao is gone, he is heartbroken, and it is normal to have a headache.

The servants in the palace also quickly realized that Emperor Zhenghe's head was on the verge of a seizure, so they rushed to support him, and subconsciously shouted, "Quickly go and ask for Nian's palm print!"

Immediately reacting again, he changed his voice and shouted, "Go and ask the imperial doctor! Please doctor Chu! Go! Pass the imperial chariot and send the emperor back to the palace!"

Emperor Zhenghe was supported by the palace servants onto the imperial chariot and returned to his bedroom.

Dr. Chu was rushing here with several of the oldest imperial physicians, but he could only kneel down and plead guilty.

Zheng Hedi's headache was stronger than ever this time, and they were powerless.

An imperial doctor tentatively asked, "Your Majesty, why don't you temporarily withdraw the Nian's palm print from the prison?"

Zheng He Di held his head tightly, gritting his teeth to resist the more severe headache than ever.

His gentle and elegant face was bulging with blue veins due to the pain, and cold sweat was streaming down, making him look very ferocious.

It may not be without reason, when Nian Yu did not enter the palace, he also endured it, and now he can endure it as well!

He can't let this become the basis for Nian Yu to manipulate him!
Doctor Chu did not wait for Emperor Zhenghe's response, so he raised his voice and said, "Prince! Go and invite His Royal Highness to come down!"

A palace attendant replied, "Miss Hua Er invited His Royal Highness to go down to the lake today, but His Highness hasn't returned to the palace yet."

Xiao Mingshi had long agreed to Hua Pingle to take her to go hunting in the lake, but he was often grounded after he promised her, and only now did he find the opportunity.

Doctor Chu was looking at Emperor Zhenghe who was about to faint from pain at any time, and gritted his teeth, "Then go invite the Empress Dowager, the Crown Princess, and invite Meng Shoufu!
Meng Shoufu is not here, so I went to ask for the second assistant, Su Shangshu and Cheng Shangshu! "

He is only a fourth-rank court principal. If the emperor doesn't speak, he can't make the decision at all, so he wants to invite someone who can make the decision.

Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother fainted because of the news of Xiao Mingzhao's death. Although she woke up now, she couldn't get out of bed at all.

Wang Miaoer was also confined in the East Palace because of her dispute with Hua Pingle.

On the side of Shangshutai, Meng Shoufu and several other Shangshuge were old and slow-moving. The first one to arrive was Su Xianyu.

Su Xianyu, who was always as elegant as a fairy, was panting and sweating profusely from running, knelt down on one knee to the bedside and touched Tan Zheng and the emperor's foreheads, and made a decisive decision, "Come here, bring the Nian's palm print out of the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice!"

The palace people hesitated, the emperor was in such pain that he didn't let go and said to bring out the palm print of the year, Su Shangshu——

Su Xianyu gritted his teeth, and tightly shook the hands of the government and the emperor, "Your Majesty, I'm going to pick someone up. If there is any difference, I will bear it all!"

Zheng Hedi was already delirious from the pain, but he still remembered that he could not let Nianyu go back to the palace, so he held his hand behind his back.

Because of the pain, his strength was surprisingly strong, and Su Xianyu Yubai's hand suddenly turned blue.

"Do not--"

The wind in the head is very powerful, but it's just a pain, after this period of pain, it will be fine, and it will be fatal.

Su Xianyu lowered his voice, "Your Majesty, I know what your Majesty is worried about.

When the emperor sees a doctor, besides the Nian's palm print, there are at least four imperial physicians following him, how can it be so easy to do something?
And Nian Zhanyin has been in charge of giving acupuncture to the emperor for so many years, to put it bluntly, if he really could move his feet, he would have done it long ago, so there is no need to wait until now."

Zheng Hedi was in so much pain that he wanted to bang his head against the wall, but he gritted his teeth and refused to let go.

At this time, Meng Shoufu and other senior ministers of the pavilion also rushed over. Seeing this scene, they all knelt down in pain, "Your Majesty, the dragon's body is the most important thing!"

Zheng Hedi waved his hand violently, "Go down! You all go!"

Everyone looked at Meng Shoufu in unison, and Meng Shoufu wanted to persuade him again, but Emperor Zhenghe yelled, "I said it, go down!"

Meng Shoufu and others had no choice but to leave the hall, but they dared not leave, and waited for the news around the door.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, they heard the sound of banging against the wall, and then the palace man called out to the emperor.

"Take cloth and tie me up!"

Zheng Hedi's voice was almost squeezed out between his teeth, and several people outside the hall looked at each other in blank dismay.

Su Xianyu said, "It won't work if it goes on like this, it's against the decree, and I'm going to print it out!"

Cheng Shangshu smiled wryly, Su Xianyu wanted to raise Nianyu even if he was not afraid of resisting the decree, then if he let Su Xianyu easily lift Nianyu out of the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, would it count as resisting the decree with him?
Su Xianyu won the emperor's heart, and the emperor would probably not be willing to punish him afterwards, what about him?
Meng Shoufu asked anxiously, "Where is the prince?"

"I went out of the palace and haven't come back yet."

Su Xianyu's gaze was heavy, and he was about to leave. Before he could take two steps, a eunuch rushed over, but he was by Xiao Mingshi's side to serve him personally.

He ignored the closed door of the palace, tripped over the high threshold and scrambled into the inner palace, hissing, "Your Majesty! Your Highness is not well, please!" Your Majesty, help! Your Majesty!"

"What—what's going on?"

"It's the second prince's nurse. The prince has just returned to the palace and went to see the second prince. The second prince's nurse, she, she, hurt the prince!"

"Hurt—hurt—"

Meng Shoufu shouted anxiously outside the hall, "Where is the injury? Is it serious?"

"The wound was on the penis! The servants even heard the sound of His Highness the Crown Prince breaking!

emperor!Now only the Nian's palm print may save the prince's life, I beg the emperor to show mercy! "

"Shi-brother--"

Zheng Hedi covered his head and let out a mournful cry, and passed out.

The exclamation of the emperor fainting came from the inner hall. Meng Shoufu took the lead and rushed in, sternly yelling at the chaotic palace servants to untie the ribbons that bound the government and the emperor.

Inviting the imperial physician who was waiting in the side hall, he looked at Su Xianyu and Cheng Shangshu again, and said solemnly, "Please trouble the two adults to run for a while. After the emperor wakes up, I will bear all the responsibility for all the crimes."

Su Xianyu clasped his fists silently, turned around and hurried away, Cheng Shangshu sighed, and hurriedly followed, what a crime, what a crime!
……

……

It took less than half an hour for Su Xianyu to bring the Nianyu from the Zhenghe Emperor's Palace to the Xingbu Prison, and then back to the Zhenghe Emperor's Palace.

Cheng Shangshu was too old to keep up with them, so he could only stay behind and slowly come over.

When Nianyu arrived, Xiao Mingshi had already been treated by the imperial physician, and was sent to lie on a soft couch in Emperor Zhenghe's palace.

Zheng Hedi woke up from the pain shortly after he fainted, and because of Xiao Mingshi's incident, his headache was multiplied again, and he almost bit off his tongue several times.

The imperial doctor had no choice but to stuff a veil into his mouth, and tied him to the bed to prevent him from hurting himself.

Nian Yu was sweating profusely, his face was pale, but his eyes were red. He ran to the bedside at a trot. Before he could salute, he went to inspect Zheng and Emperor Pulse, and ordered, "Wipe my sweat and fetch my medicine box."

Nian Yu's medicine box had already been brought, and a palace servant stepped forward to wipe his sweat.

"cold water".

The cold water was quickly brought over, and Nian Yu drank it all in one gulp, panting heavily, and when he calmed down, Fang said in a deep voice, "Help the emperor sit up, be careful not to let him move."

Everything was on the right track in an orderly manner, and when Nian Yu inserted the last needle into the back of Zheng Hedi's head, it followed like a shadow, and the severe pain that tormented him to the point of going mad eased down. Although it was still painful, it was already within a tolerable range.

Nian Yu heaved a sigh of relief, took the water presented by the palace man and drank it in one gulp, tiredly ordered, "Take the handkerchief from the emperor's mouth, burn the incense, and take the needle after two sticks of incense."

As he spoke, he backed away a few steps, and retreated to the soft couch to diagnose Xiao Mingshi's pulse.

When Xiao Mingshi was injured, he fainted from the sudden pain. After waking up, he was so emotional that he couldn't control it at all.

The imperial doctor was afraid that he would hurt himself, so he had to give him another needle to pass out, and now he is in a deep sleep.

After Nian Yu checked his pulse, he went to look at Xiao Mingshi's tongue coating, raised his eyelids and looked carefully for a long time, then said, "I want to see how the wound is."

The little eunuch serving him glanced at him, then asked Emperor Zhenghe, "Your Majesty?"

Emperor Zhenghe closed his eyes, his expression was exhausted, he couldn't see any emotion, "Ask me what to do? How can I heal the wound without looking at the wound?"
