Tragic death and rebirth, the daughter of a general poisoned the government and the country
Chapter 239 The Death of the Crown Prince
After Liu Mei's death, Crown Prince Nan Baixuan is also about to die.
After checking the prince's pulse, several imperial physicians who rushed over all shook their heads helplessly. In the prince's condition, not even a great god could save him.
The prince vomited blood again and again, and the pain in his abdomen was so severe that it seemed to tear him apart.
When the prince could no longer vomit blood, his entire body was no longer shriveled and pale, but instead exuded a strange vitality.
The princes were shocked. Is this a last gasp? !
The prince still felt severe pain in his abdomen, but he was completely numb. At this moment, he lay calmly on the bed waiting for death to come.
In less than a cup of tea, the prince's complexion gradually became rosy, his skin became moisturized, and his complexion was much better than that of the imperial doctors in front of him.
The doctors were shocked and asked, "What's going on?"
"Is the prince going to become an immortal?!"
The prince could no longer hear their discussions. In severe pain, he faced the death that had been waiting for him for many years.
The doctors did not react until the prince had completely stopped breathing. The prince in front of them had a ruddy complexion and looked like he was asleep.
After an incense stick of time had passed, the queen, who had arrived late, rushed into the hall in panic.
"How is the prince?"
Upon hearing this, an imperial physician stepped forward to take the prince's pulse again. After the examination, the imperial physician's expression changed drastically, and his face became paler than the prince's, looking like a dead person.
"The crown prince has passed away!"
Upon hearing this, the queen fainted.
The imperial doctors, who were deeply shocked, hurriedly supported the queen and treated her.
There was chaos in the Eastern Palace.
The next day, the prince's death shocked the capital.
But in the eyes of the people, Liu Mei became a chaste woman who was so sad about the sudden death of the prince that she chose to commit suicide for love.
Emperor Ming was so grief-stricken that he was ill for three days, and the empress fell seriously ill.
As the whole country was in grief, the empress dragged her sick body and knelt before Emperor Ming.
"Your Majesty, Xuan'er was murdered!"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Ming's eyes turned cold and he stared at the Queen kneeling on the ground with an unclear expression.
"Tell me slowly, what happened?"
There was no trace of blood on the queen's face, and she looked very ill. Her face was full of tears, and she sobbed as she talked about what the imperial doctors had seen that day.
"Vomiting blood? Abdominal pain?"
Although Emperor Ming was surprised after hearing this, he was secretly relieved. He just thought that the tampering he had done with the prince's medicine was discovered by the empress. If that was the case, the empress would also have "died of illness".
In recent years, Emperor Ming added some stimulating tonic herbs to the prince's medicine and replaced some mild tonic herbs.
There was nothing wrong with it in the short term, but over the years, the prince's weak physique was constantly stimulated, making him weaker and weaker.
But from the Queen's description, it seems that someone poisoned the Prince!
Poisoning the prince is really bold.
Although he intended for the prince to die early, he would never allow anyone to harm his son!
This is a matter of royal dignity!
"Someone, go check on Rong Jing and tell him to investigate the Crown Prince as soon as possible."
"Yes!"
-
In the Fifth Prince’s Palace.
"What? Father sent someone to find Nan Rongjing to investigate the Crown Prince's death?"
Nan Huaishuo stood up suddenly. Ever since the Crown Prince passed away yesterday, he had been feeling uneasy and ordered people to keep an eye on the movements in the East Palace and the Imperial Palace.
I didn't expect that he really discovered the abnormality.
How did they find out that there was something unusual about the prince’s death?
People who were poisoned by the drunkenness Gu would die like being drunk, but it was normal for people who died of the disease to be unconscious before death. Except for the Yulin Guards, others would not be discovered as long as they were not paying attention.
This way of dying is so secretive that no one would notice it, so why was it discovered?
Before Nan Huaishuo could continue asking, the guard continued to report.
"Your Highness, the secret doctor of the Imperial Hospital replied that the doctors who treated the prince yesterday behaved very strangely today. After investigation, he found out that the prince had vomited blood and had abdominal pain when he died."
Vomiting blood and abdominal pain?
Nan Huaishuo was filled with anger, "Call Gu Zhi over!"
A moment later, Gu Zhi, who was completely hidden in a black robe, walked into the study, and the guard repeated what he had just said to Nan Huaishuo.
He was always as elegant as a piece of wood, but now he showed a rare expression of surprise.
"Your Highness, calm down. If the prince really has these symptoms, it means he is not drunk!"
Nan Huaishuo frowned when he heard this and looked at Gu Zhi suspiciously.
"Oh? But after the prince was assassinated, there was only this one of us left. And she said that the drunkenness poison was put into the medicine the prince drank, and there was absolutely no mistake."
Nan Huaishuo clearly believed in Anqi and doubted Gu Zhi.
Gu Zhi frowned and thought. He had no time to find out the real reason for this incident at the moment. He had to appease Nan Huaishuo first. He still needed to use Nan Huaishuo.
"There is a possibility that if someone poisoned the prince at the same time, then the prince might show symptoms of poisoning."
"is it?"
Nan Huaishuo looked at Gu Zhi with a smirk in his eyes.
"I still remember Mr. Gu once said that Gu poison is mysterious. The more toxic the Gu is, the more it can absorb other poisons. The poison of the drunk Gu is so strong. What kind of poison can't it absorb?"
Gu Zhi choked. It was indeed so. This was also what bothered him. However, he did not expect that Nan Huaishuo still remembered what he had said before.
"Unless... unless the prince didn't take the poison at all."
Nan Huaishuo still stared at Gu Zhi with suspicion. He trusted Gu Zhi even less than the hidden chess player who had been lurking in the Prince's Mansion for many years.
"Really?"
Beads of sweat appeared on Gu Zhi's forehead, but his expression remained calm and composed.
"Your Highness, please allow me to investigate this matter. I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."
"Oh, now His Majesty has sent people to Prince Jin's Mansion."
Gu Zhi suddenly looked up, "Prince Jin's Mansion?"
Nan Huaishuo only smiled a little at this moment.
"It's a pity that Nan Rongjing is dead. As long as your majesty's people can't find Nan Rongjing, he will definitely die for the crime of leaving the capital without permission, so we are just sending him away in advance. No matter how the prince died, as long as Nan Rongjing is gone, the inner guards under your majesty will never be able to find it on me!"
"Your Highness is absolutely right."
Gu Zhi lowered his head even more, his eyes moved around restlessly, and beads of sweat flowed down his forehead and dripped onto the ground.
If Nan Rongjing appeared at this time...
Gu Zhi couldn't believe how furious Nan Huaishuo would be. No, he couldn't stay in the Fifth Prince's Mansion any longer!
He has been working in the capital for nearly ten years. If he had not been unable to find the person he was looking for... he would never have easily interfered in the internal affairs of the Great Zhou royal family.
Unfortunately, there are already clues.
Gu Zhi thought of the face in the dense forest. He had been in the capital for so long, but he had only seen Prince Nan Rongjing of Jin once in the second year after he arrived. Nan Rongjing was still young at that time and nothing could be seen.
But now that Nan Rongjing has grown up, his appearance has changed drastically.
His features really look like Xuan Yue!
The woman he had hated for more than ten years!
