Looking at the crimson in Suzong's hand, Chaoyue hurriedly told the imperial doctor, Suzong didn't care about these things, so he ordered people to go to the Linde Hall to investigate everything in front of him, and Tang Nei really found the poppy an hour later.Suzong's face was ashen, and he said weakly to Chaoyue: "Yue'er, go and tell this rebellious son on behalf of the father... that he is not worthy to be my prince of the Tang Dynasty!"

Chaoyue also wanted to ask the prince face to face why this was the case, so she went to the prince's bedroom with Donghua in tears.

When Chaoyue saw the prince, she finally couldn't help burning with anger: "You are already the prince, but why do you insist on killing your father? After a few years, the world will naturally be yours, so why don't you stay here for a few years?" To Emperor Father!" Chaoyue's voice resounded throughout the bedroom, and after saying these two sentences, she was already sobbing.

At this moment, the prince knew that everything had been revealed, and backed away in panic, but after a while, his eyes widened and he shook his head loudly: "Brother, I really want to ascend to the throne as soon as possible, but I never harmed my father, please rest, Yueer!" Talk nonsense!"

"No? Then what kind of soup did you give Father? How dare you say that your soup is not poisonous?"

Seeing Chaoyue being so aggressive, the crown prince had no choice but to stammer: "The soup... is a bit poisonous, but it will never harm the life of the emperor..."

Chaoyue snorted coldly and was disappointed to the end, "Brother, Yueer is still the same child as before, you can deceive me...but now the emperor has found out everything!"

But the prince murmured: "Brother, I just want to make my father weaker so that I can hand over the government affairs to me. I really never thought of killing my father."

Chaoyue saw that the prince was still trying to quibble at this moment and couldn't understand the words before and after, she lowered her eyes and sighed helplessly, "If my brother is safe and sound, please save these words and tell the new prince in the future..." After saying that, she wiped away her tears and left the prince Sleeping hall.Donghua didn't say a word during the whole process, because Donghua knew that no matter what he said at this moment, it would embarrass the two brothers and sisters even more. If he didn't worry about Chaoyue, Donghua would not take the initiative to come together.

Chaoyue thought of Suzong in her heart, so she and Donghua went back to Linde Hall. When they arrived in the hall, they saw Suzong's breath was weak and his eyes were barren.After a while, Emperor Suzong slowly turned his head to look at Chaoyue and Donghua, and said frailly: "Unexpectedly, there is a cycle of karma in this world, and everything is going back and forth. At that time, everyone thought it was Chen Xuanli's rebellion against Mawei, but in fact, all of this was caused by me. One-handed planning, first kill Yang Guozhong and his son, then force the father to hang and kill the concubine Yang Gui, and finally force the father to go to Shu, I ascend the throne and stand on my own, and now this prince betrayed his father just like me!" Suzong raised his head and laughed, It's just that the laugh only made a hoarse sound because of the weak breath.

But these few words made Donghua tremble with fear, thinking about how terrible the rebellion against Maweipo was, the government and the public were in panic, and the army was also in turmoil. Maybe Yang Guozhong's intention to rebel and his family was killed is more than enough. , but no one thought that Tang Minghuang, who was already aged at that time, was actually forced to kill his beloved by his son leading the army. It was not the rumored concubine Yang Guifei who hanged herself to death because of the uneasiness of the soldiers!

Donghua looked at Suzong in front of him and didn't know whether to pity him or hate him. How could he blame the world's faults on a 38-year-old woman who had lived in the palace for a long time?How could he cruelly force his father, who was over seventy years old, to kill his beloved woman?Is all this for the sake of the common people or his own selfish desire for power?I am afraid that only Suzong himself knows.

Donghua turned his head and looked at Chaoyue, thinking that she should have known about this a long time ago. Although it has been a long time, Chaoyue still looks sad, but that is her biological father after all, maybe she can't help it now You have to ask yourself why you were born in this seemingly high-ranking royal family that is actually full of killings.

The two guarded Suzong until midnight, and when they saw that Suzong was asleep, they left the hall.The night was as cool as water, but Donghua felt that he could finally take a breath of cool air, and felt a little relieved, but the night sky was dark, with neither a bright moon in the sky nor bright stars, only the dark shadows of the palaces like ghosts stand around.

Chaoyue walked forward without saying a word, although there were lanterns not far away, Donghua still didn't know where Chaoyue was walking.After walking for an unknown amount of time, Chaoyue turned into a dormitory and said softly, "I don't know if Qingque is fast asleep. This child often plays until midnight before going to sleep." Only now did Donghua realize that Chaoyue had thought of this little boy. younger brother.

A maid was watching the night outside the door. Seeing Chaoyue, she knelt down and saluted. Chaoyue waved her hand to signal her to keep quiet and walked in quietly. Seeing that Qingque was sleeping soundly at the moment, she sat aside and watched for a while, then got up and tucked it away. The quilt went out of the bedroom again, saw the maid and said in a low voice: "Take care of Tan'er these two days, don't let him walk around."

The maid bowed low and bowed down: "Yes, Your Highness, the little Highness has been arguing for the past two days to see Miss Huang."

Chaoyue wanted to laugh but couldn't, she nodded and said, "I just hope he grows up quickly." After speaking, he walked into the night again.Maybe Chaoyue was tired from walking, sat down on a stone bench and said quietly: "You don't understand anything at Qingque's age, so it's not a good thing to be carefree."

Donghua couldn't help asking: "The princess called Tan'er just now, but the name of Qingque?"

Chaoyue nodded: "Qingque's name is Li Tan, and when he was three years old, he was conferred the title of King Jianning by his father."

This sentence was like thunder in Donghua's ears: "What? He is King Jianning? Princess, are you right?"

Although Chaoyue couldn't see Donghua's expression clearly, she was quite surprised to hear Donghua's surprised voice: "How can I say something wrong? Does Donghua know other Jianning kings?"

Donghua still couldn't believe it: "His name is Li Tan?"

Dimly saw Chaoyue nodding in the night: "Qing Que is just a baby name that his family calls him, but what has Donghua heard?"

Donghua quickly shook his head and said, "No, I just remembered that Master mentioned the names of Li Tan and King Jianning."

Chaoyue nodded lightly and didn't think any more, just lowered her head alone.

Donghua's startled heart couldn't let go, how could he be Jianning King Li Tan?Li Tan, the king of Jianning, should have been bestowed to death by Emperor Suzong for murdering the prince Li Yu a few years ago, why is he still a child now?What is going on in all this?Are the historical records wrong?Then I thought about it, the history books were all edited by the ascended emperor, maybe there was a discrepancy with the facts, so let him do it.

Donghua and Chaoyue returned to Chaoyue's bedroom to rest for a while. Although Donghua came once when they got married, they never saw it carefully. Now that the two of them were exhausted, Donghua asked Chaoyue to go to bed to rest. propped up at the table.Looking at Donghua sitting at the table, Chaoyue felt that this scene seemed familiar, but she was really exhausted this day, and fell into a drowsy sleep after a while.After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, he was suddenly awakened by a nightmare. In the dream, his father vomited blood again. Looking at the moon and looking out the window, the sky was already slightly bright, so he got up softly and put on Donghua's clothes that had fallen on the ground again. Even if Donghua moved, he also woke up.

Chaoyue was disturbed by the nightmare just now, so she and Donghua went to Linde Hall again.Seeing his father lying on the bed in good condition, he felt a little relieved.After a while, Suzong woke up suddenly: "The Concubine Yang Gui is asking for her life!" After speaking, there was another violent cough, Chaoyue hurried forward and patted his back to help him calm down, and then took Donghua's hand. The decoction that was handed over, was lifting the medicine spoon, but Su Zong overturned the medicine bowl: "Everyone wants me to die, why do I still take the decoction!"

Seeing that Chaoyue's eyes were filled with tears that were about to overflow in an instant, Donghua had no choice but to take a tea bowl filled with clear water and walked towards Suzong: "Then, please drink some water to moisten your throat first, your majesty, this soup...you can eat it when you want to eat it." "Donghua couldn't bear to look at Suzong, who seemed to have aged ten years.

Suzong drank half a bowl of water and sighed: "It's rare that you are so filial, Yue'er is relieved to have you take care of me."

At this moment, Eunuch Gao rushed over from outside the hall, seeing that Suzong was hesitating to speak, he looked at Donghua eagerly and said, "Princess Consort, please speak outside the hall."

Donghua and Chaoyue saw Eunuch Gao panic-stricken, as if something important had happened, they hurried to the outside of the hall together, Eunuch Gao looked at the closed door again, plopped on his knees and cried, "Prince... hanged himself to death!"

This sentence was like a thunderbolt hitting Chaoyue's head: "Grandpa Gao, what did you say?"

Eunuch Gao slammed his head on the ground and cried again, "The prince hanged himself...he has passed away." Let alone Chaoyue, even Donghua couldn't believe his ears. How could the prince die?What should Tang do if he is dead?Who is Tang Daizong after he dies?Donghua looked at the closed door and thought about Suzong lying inside, could Suzong escape this disaster and live for a few more years?

Donghua looked towards Chaoyue and saw that Chaoyue had recovered her face after being frightened, she silently let the tears in her eyes slide down, choked up a few times as if she was swallowing tears, bowed her head to Eunuch Gao who was kneeling on the ground and said : "Father can't bear such a blow at this moment, Eunuch Gao can't tell his father for the time being. Please also ask Eunuch Gao to guard this gate strictly, and don't let anyone enter the palace to disturb Father."

Eunuch Gao fell on the ground and burst into tears: "This old slave will serve His Majesty all his life, so His Highness can rest assured."

Chaoyue wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, pushed open the door and walked into the hall with a calm face. Donghua knew that he was not that calm, but despite the countless doubts in his heart, he had to calm down as much as possible, and returned to the hall.
