Darkness of Rebirth

The most unexpected thing tonight was the death of the crown prince.The East Palace has always placed people from Dongfangdu. In recent days, she has known all the actions of Dongfang Xi. Dongfang Xi sent his confidants to contact with multiple organizations outside the palace, planning to take the lives of other princes.

Four years ago, Dongfang Xi dared to hire Gu Hongyi to kill her, and four years later, he even dared to hire killers to kill her, the third prince, and the fourth prince.

Dongfang Jin's sense of presence has always been very low, and Dongfang Du's image in front of everyone has always been that of a half-waste prince suffering from congenital insufficiency. Therefore, Dongfang Xu is the most eye-catching among the several princes.Coupled with what Dongfang Du said to Dongfang Xi in the East Palace a few days ago, it pushed Dongfang Xu to the forefront. The number one target of Dongfang Xi must be Dongfang Xu.

But after planning for many days, Dongfang Xi was the first to die!Dongfangdu was sure that he had not given any order to take Dongfang Xi's life, and he was also sure that his subordinates would not act rashly without receiving his order. The one who killed Dongfang Xi was either Dongfang Xu or Dongfang Jin!

In terms of status, Dongfang Xu is the same as Dongfang Xi, born by the empress, and he is the son of the eldest son. When Dongfang Xi dies, the throne is most likely to fall into the hands of Dongfang Xu, but the Donggan Kingdom has always been established according to the elder and younger. Chu, even if Dongfang Xu is the eldest son, he is still younger than her. The position of the crown prince is more likely to fall on her.

Is it Dongfangxu or Dongfangjin?Or someone else?

Will I be the next to die?

The eunuch lay down on the ground in panic, fearing that Emperor Qianwen would kill him and bury him with the prince if he didn't like it, he stammered after a long while and said, "Go back... back to the emperor, it's Tai... His Royal Highness... died... "The cold sweat on the forehead slipped from the sides, and the body leaned even lower, wishing to blend in with the cashmere blanket on the ground.

"Xi'er is dead?" Emperor Qianwen stared blankly at the eunuch below. After a long time, he came back to his senses, got up weakly, and staggered down the jade steps, "Speed ​​to the East Palace quickly!"

"Yes, my servant will send someone to prepare the imperial chariot." The eunuch who was lying on the ground got up in a panic and ran out in a hurry.

Seeing Emperor Qianwen's gait in disorder, Dongfang Du hurriedly stood up and helped him, "Father, be careful, brother prince...brother prince...don't hurt your body, father..." Dongfang Du didn't know what to do. Comforting his father, he talked nonsense without continuing the last sentence, and only prayed that his father would not hurt his body because of the sudden death of Dongfang Xi.

There were only five children in total, and one of them suddenly disappeared, and he was the oldest child. How could Emperor Qianwen not be sad? !Dongfang Xi is only 24 years old!

The East Palace is about a stick of incense away from Weiyang Palace, which is already the closest compared to the palaces of the other princes.

When Emperor Qianwen brought a group of eunuchs and guards to the East Palace, there were wailing sounds inside and outside the East Palace.The closer it was to the East Palace bedroom, the more miserable the wailing sound was.

Dongfang Xi was lying on the bed with a pale face, as if he was just asleep, but everyone knew that he hadn't breathed.Only Emperor Qianwen didn't want to believe it.

Beside the bed, kneeling the crown prince's main concubine Qi Ying, side concubine, imperial doctor, court lady and eunuch.From the moment the crown prince passed away, they never stopped crying. Among them, the one who cried the most was not the crown prince's main concubine Qi Ying, but the group of side concubines.Although the side concubine does not need to be buried, she will live in the cold palace for a long time, and she will not be able to take another half step.Only the crown prince and concubine can have an independent palace and spend the rest of his life in peace.

"What's wrong with Xi'er? He just fell asleep, who said he died?!" Emperor Qianwen Longyan was furious, and kicked Chen Yuyi who was kneeling beside the bed.

Imperial physician Chen rolled twice on the ground, stabilized his body, hurriedly got up and knelt down, and said to Emperor Qianwen in fear: "The emperor calms down, I... I have checked the pulse of His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness... Your Highness is really dead..."

Without waiting for Emperor Qianwen to ask questions, Chen Yuyi explained everything that happened: "My minister was on duty at the Imperial Hospital, but someone from the East Palace suddenly came and said that His Highness the Crown Prince had fainted suddenly, and ordered him to quickly go to the East Palace to serve as His Highness the Crown Prince. Checking the pulse, when Wei Chen arrived at the East Palace, His Royal Highness was pale and lifeless, Wei Chen stepped forward to check the pulse and found that His Highness... His Royal Highness has no heartbeat or breathing..." He said and kowtowed heavily, "Your Majesty, everything that I have said is true, and I will never deceive the Emperor at all."

How could he be so unlucky!

The third prince, His Royal Highness Prince You, was injured, so he pushed Lin Shunan to Yousi Palace to treat the wound for the third prince under excuses. He did not expect that in less than half an hour, the Eastern Palace would suddenly send someone from the imperial doctor Xuan to diagnose the prince's pulse.

Tonight's Lantern Festival, only he and Lin Shunan were on duty as two imperial physicians. Lin Shunan went to Yousi Palace and hadn't returned to the Imperial Hospital, so he was the only one left in the Imperial Hospital.

Doctor Chen thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had been poisoned a few days ago and his body had not yet recovered, so he felt unwell and even fainted. He thought that he only needed to go to check his pulse, so he went there with peace of mind. He really didn't expect the meeting Such a big event!

Who would have thought that the prince would die suddenly!As an imperial doctor, the most fearful thing is to meet a prince, princess or concubine who dies suddenly, and if you are not careful, you will have to be buried with him!And today, let him meet him!

Emperor Qianwen sat down on the side of the bed, and after listening to Imperial Physician Chen's words, he stretched out his hand to caress Dongfang Xi's side face, and called out sadly: "Xi'er~" The skin and skin touched were as cold as cold water, and there was no air under his nose The flow, the Oriental Seat, is really dead.

This is his earliest child, and he is a man, so when Dongfang Xi was five years old, he was directly registered as the crown prince and prince, and the year name of Qianxin was changed to Qiansheng, which means that the crown prince is registered, and God blesses him. Donggan is prosperous and prosperous.

The prosperity of Donggan is the same as in the past. Now, the crown prince died before he could ascend the throne as emperor!How will the prosperity of Donggan come from in the future? !This dry prime year title, it doesn't matter if it is abolished!

Dongfang Du was stunned half a foot away, looking at the picture in front of him, he couldn't believe that Dongfang Xi was dead.

Everything is messed up!According to the original destiny, on the tenth day of October in the 20th year of Qiansheng, Emperor Qianwen died, and then the crown prince Dongfangxi ascended the throne as emperor, and the year name was changed to Qianming in the following year, and then several of their princes were hunted down by the new emperor .And what Dongfangdu has to do is to prevent the Dongfang Xi from ascending the throne as emperor.

But now?

Dongfang Xi died on the fifteenth day of the first month of the 20th year of Qiansheng!She died without doing anything!

Dongfang Xi is dead, will the fate of their other princes be the same as in the previous life?Before Dongfangdu could do anything, someone took action to remove Dongfang Xi. Was that person for her sake or for himself?

I don't want to stay in the East Palace anymore.

Dongfangdu turned around weakly, dragged his tired body, and returned to Fengqing Palace.Banlan waited at the gate of Fengqing Palace as soon as she finished the tasks Dongfangdu had given her.

The news of Dongfang Xi's death is probably known by the entire imperial palace at this moment, and Banlan naturally knows it too. Seeing Dongfangdu's dignified expression and staggering steps at this moment, she hurriedly went up to her, supported her and said, "Your Highness, what's the matter?" Why did it seem so sudden? Ten years older, is it because of the sudden death of Dongfang Xi?

Dongfang Du withdrew his hand, "Leave me alone." He entered Fengqing Palace on his own.In the corner of the front yard of Fengqing Palace, a pomegranate tree was planted, its flowers and leaves had all fallen, and now there were only bare branches.There was a stone table under the tree, and a stone bench was placed on the north and south sides of the stone table. Dongfang Du caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of his eye. He stopped at the door, froze for a moment, then turned and walked to the corner.

The night was as cold as water, and as soon as he sat on the stone bench, a bit of chill came over him.Dongfang Du didn't seem to notice, sitting on the stone bench, looking up at the bare branches.

This sitting is half an hour.

Ban Lan was very anxious, but there was nothing she could do, she could only watch from a distance.There are some things that she can't solve with persuasion, and can only be figured out by Dongfang Du himself.

Dongfangdu sat on the cold stone bench for half an hour, while Banlan stood in the cold wind for half an hour.Finally, Dongfangdu withdrew his gaze, no longer looked at the bare branches, but turned to look at Banlan.

Seeing that Dongfang Du's expression returned to normal, Banlan's eyes lit up, she walked over quickly, and shouted with a smile: "Your Highness~" Half an hour of cold is not in vain!

Dongfang Du rolled his eyes, twitched his lips, and asked, "Everything is arranged?" Dongfang Xi is indeed her imperial brother, but this imperial brother killed her in the previous life, and if he died in this life, what would she do? It's so sad, it's just you and me dying, it's impossible to live all of them.

If you die, everything in the past will be wiped out.

"It's all arranged." Banlan replied, seeing that Dongfangdu had figured it out and was still sitting on the stone bench, he said, "Your Highness, go back to the room, it's cold outside."

Dongfang Du looked up at the pomegranate tree, and just got up, "Go in." He walked towards the bedroom, and before entering the door, he suddenly said, "Ban Lan, if I leave the palace in the future, do you really want to leave the palace?" Follow me again?" She only told An Yun and Dongfang Lingwu about leaving the palace, Ban Lan, Zhen Wei and the people under her command thought she was after the world, but they didn't know that she was only after An An Live your life.

At this moment, she calls herself me, and Ban Lan is no longer master and servant.A strange look flashed in Banlan's eyes, but it was fleeting, and when Dongfangdu turned his head to look at her, it was back to normal, "Banlan said, I will go wherever your Highness goes."

"There is no need to be like this. I will never come back after leaving the palace this time. I am free, and you are also free." Dongfang Du smiled at Banlan, turned around, and opened the door, only to see a person standing inside the room , was looking at her coldly, only to feel that the surrounding air froze instantly, and even the movement of pushing the door froze.
