Chapter 48
Thinking about it, the five princes have been favored recently, and the court has turned in a different direction. The former court and the harem are always inseparable. Not to mention the turbulent tide among the princes, the most annoying thing is that the concubines do not stop .

I came here for three days and two days to gain a sense of presence. I sewed a piece of clothing, made a pot of tea, and made a dance. Anyway, I just like to hang around.

The emperor was shaken so badly that he simply ordered no one to see him, but there were always people who couldn't refuse—for example, the empress, or the concubine Qi in front of him.

In fact, he didn't know, the most depressing thing for the emperor was that he was not dead yet, and these people couldn't wait to succeed to the throne. To put it another way, didn't they think he was in the way of being alive?

After organizing his words, the chief eunuch was about to refuse, but the emperor waved first. "In that case, take it here."

Concubine Qi immediately walked over happily carrying the soup gu, the chief eunuch's pupils opened slightly, and then he let out a barely audible sigh.Now the fifth prince is in the limelight, forcing the emperor to compromise!

But is this really good?
But at this moment, there was no warmth in the emperor's eyes, he took a spoonful of the soup Gu from Concubine Xi, smelled the fragrance, but he didn't have any appetite at all, he finally took a sip - but that's all.

Putting down the soup Gu, the emperor raised his head, his expression was serious, but his appearance was different.

"Very good, concubine Ai is really ingenious."

Concubine Xi smiled contentedly after being appreciated. "Then the concubine will leave without disturbing His Majesty's business affairs."

The emperor nodded, so Concubine Xi bowed and stepped back.

As soon as she took a step, the emperor suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

Hearing the sound and turning her head, Concubine Qi's eyes widened instantly in astonishment, while the emperor had already fallen from his seat with his hands on his chest, and his eyes were fixed on her.

"Bitch, how dare you harm me!"

Concubine Qi was so shocked that she couldn't speak, but the court lady who followed her in suddenly took out a dagger from her sleeve and rushed out, the chief eunuch hurriedly shouted.

"There are assassins, catch the assassins quickly! Quickly! Send the imperial physician!"

A few guards rushed in from outside, but they carried Concubine Xi up without saying a word. When they realized it, there was no one in the hall. After a while, the real guards rushed over.

The emperor was poisoned and fell into a coma, the concubine Xi was taken into captivity, the queen mother trembled with anger when she heard the news, but the concubine concubine Xiao of the third prince who had been thrown into the cold palace took poison and committed suicide. The whole palace was in chaos in an instant. He led General Zhenwu to directly blockade the capital, and the fifth prince personally commanded it, so the overall situation was temporarily stabilized.

On the imperial city, Su Zicong and General Zhenwu stood beside Chaoyue.The news about the palace spread quickly, and the entire capital was panicked. In order to find the assassin, the imperial guards searched from house to house, but three hours passed and there was still no news.

This incident caused a sensation, but did not cause misunderstanding, because at night, when the whole capital city was brightly lit, fireworks were suddenly set off in the sky, and a huge Kongming lantern rose from the top of the mountain into the sky, swaying upwards with the evening wind.

Chaoyue immediately sent someone to investigate, and there was no one on the mountain in the outskirts of Beijing, but when the wick burned out, a charred corpse fell down, and it was carefully identified that it was the concubine Xi who had been captured during the day.

The Kongming Lantern is sewn from a huge curtain with a few words written bloody on it.

Chaoyue, father, you are the ones who are sorry for me!
