Chapter 155 Handling
The next day, Ruyi heard what Xiao Suzi said about the eldest prince.

"Sudden illness, send him to the south for recuperation." These were the original words of Emperor Qinglong.

The court was shocked. After all, the eldest prince was the emperor's eldest son.

"Your Majesty, please think again." Shangshu, the brother of Concubine De, knelt down to plead for mercy.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that there is a problem. If he is sent to the south, he will be almost eliminated from the position of prince.

"Zhao Xiangyu, you will come with me to the imperial study later." If the emperor doesn't accept his plea, he will have to settle some matters with him.

When everyone saw this situation, they knew that the emperor had made up his mind, and they did not dare to say anything.

After all, it is the emperor's family matter, and he also said that he would go south to recuperate. Doesn't that allow him to recuperate?

Besides, the emperor himself is very young, and it seems that he will be fine if he continues to reign for 23 years.

Not to mention, today is a wise king and good governance, especially those in the Ministry of Industry and the Department of Agricultural Affairs. They have been extremely busy in the past two years, but everyone is very motivated because they are seeing results day by day.

Royal study.

After leaving the court, Zhao Xiangyu, the Minister of Household Affairs, followed him into the imperial study.

"Li Sheng, please sit down." Emperor Qinglong didn't speak in a hurry.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"I'm calling you here today. You must also know that it's for Chengyu. Li Sheng, please explain the process carefully to Mr. Zhao." Emperor Qinglong didn't want to mention it again.

Eunuch Li Sheng bowed forward and told how the eldest prince drank with his consort Zhao Fei in a restaurant, how he heard about using smallpox to kill his concubines, how he found the old belongings of people who had died from smallpox, how he asked the concubine De to sew dolls, and how he asked the prince to Caught with smallpox. . . . . .Said very clearly.

Lord Zhao, from the first time he heard that his son was related to smallpox, and then that his sister was involved, until the smallpox was really infected in the palace, he was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.

He was not as naive as the eldest prince. He understood immediately upon hearing this that this was not only a big trap, but also a conspiracy against the entire Qing Dynasty.

If it is really not handled well, the palace that has been besieged for seven days will be crying.It makes me shudder to think about the ten cases of smallpox that caused nine deaths.

Zhao Xiangyu fell from the stool and knelt down silently.

"Do you still think Chengyu shouldn't go to the south? I'm here to give him a way out." Emperor Qinglong waved his hand.

"Master Zhao, please." Eunuch Li Sheng pulled the person up and sent him out.

When Zhao Xiangyu came out of the imperial study, his back was wet and his whole body felt light. What was going on?

I'd better be the Minister of the Ministry of Finance in peace and quiet. If the emperor can tell me the matter, firstly, the conclusion has been sealed and the evidence must be conclusive; secondly, it is also giving myself a chance to avoid meddling in things that shouldn't be done.

Emperor Qinglong indeed thought so. Zhao Xiangyu did a good job in the Ministry of Household Affairs. Although he had minor flaws, he was still useful.Look again. If you can't turn the corner, give way.

The entire harem was also disturbed by the two incidents of Concubine De's confinement and the eldest prince's illness.

Longevity Palace.

When the Queen Mother found out, she connected these two people with this smallpox.Where does the brotherhood come from in the royal family? Even the relationship between father and son is more complicated than ordinary people.

"Mommy, you should be careful about what the palace servants of Yanshou Palace should say and what should not be said." The Queen Mother could only sigh.

Mother Ma also knew what was going on and didn't dare to say anything more.

"Mother, please relax."

"The Ai family is fine, just a little bit sad. The emperor should feel uncomfortable."

The Queen Mother knew a little about this adopted son. She seemed cold and indifferent to people, but she was quite soft-hearted.

Kunning Palace.

Today's greetings were in an awkward atmosphere.The concubines, big and small, probably all have the intuition of small animals, and are very calm. Maybe they have already thought of a lot of various conspiracies in their hearts.

First, the palace was closed for seven days. Generally, those who were well-informed found out the reason for the closure after the court meeting yesterday. Even those who were not well-informed found out this morning, and they all felt that they had slipped away before the gate of hell.

"Queen, is the palace safe now?" Concubine Wen couldn't help but ask.

The ears of those sitting there were perked up, they were all very concerned about this issue.

"God bless Qingguo, haven't you yourselves seen the situation in your respective palaces? Aren't they all good." The Queen had already panicked in the Yanshou Palace yesterday, and this will teach people to be honest.

"That's good."

"Everyone in my palace is fine."

"No one on my end had any problems."

They couldn't help but whisper among themselves.

The queen took a sip of tea and said, "So, there is nothing to panic about. Let's just call it a day. Whatever happens, be careful what you say. Stop guessing."
