must have fun

In the dark night with no moon and no stars, a white lantern wobbled and appeared on the roof ridge of the apse of the Eastern Palace. In the faint light, a figure held the prince's light yellow robe and waved towards the north. .

The high-pitched voice of the middle official shouted loudly: "Prince Lu Wen, come back!"

One sound overshadowed the other, with the last hope, earnestly calling for the departed soul to come back.

Just as Xuancheng ran through the heavy gate, he tripped over an unobservable obstacle in the dark and fell heavily to the ground.

Hearing this call again, the whole person seemed to be standing on the ice, the ice suddenly cracked, before she had time to react, she fell into the sudden ice cave as soon as she sank, the biting cold river instantly submerged her body The top of her head rushed into her seven orifices, suffocating her.

"Xuancheng!" Shu Dianhe, who was closely behind her, helped her up in a panic, and Xuancheng's body that he touched was so cold that he didn't seem like a stranger.After checking again, her hands, palms and knees were also scratched on the rough floor tiles due to the fall, dripping with blood.

Xuancheng trembled all over, curled up in Shu Dianhe's arms, howled loudly.

She has since lost her only brother.

Lu Meng heard the sound of the mourning chime in the Taiyu Hall, put down the memorial, and asked calmly, "What's going on?"

Zuo Huai scrambled in from the outside, knelt down and cried, "Your Majesty, the crown prince is dead!"

Hearing this, the teacup in Lu Meng's hand fell to the ground suddenly.

"Where are the imperial physicians?! Where are the imperial physicians?! Where are those imperial physicians! Didn't it mean that the prince's body has gradually recovered?"

"Are they all rubbish?!"

The imperial physicians who were questioned by Lu Meng by their collars were all silent and trembling.

They knew that the emperor didn't hate the prince as much as it appeared on the surface. On the contrary, during the period when the prince was seriously ill, the Taiyu Palace sent people to ask about the prince's physical condition, so none of the imperial doctors dared to neglect the treatment of the prince.

But the sudden death of the prince was beyond everyone's expectation.

The prince has gone, it is useless to say anything now, the emperor's anger like a huge wave has nowhere to vent, so he wants to punish the people around the prince.

They knew that they were doomed, their fate would be cut off tonight just like the prince's, and they dared not argue, they could only lead their necks to be slaughtered, waiting for the emperor's punishment, lest their family members be affected.

Seeing that none of them answered his words, Lu Meng was even more furious, and ordered with red eyes: "I will take them all to be buried with the crown prince!"

The imperial doctor howled and was dragged down by the soldiers.

After disposing of these incompetent imperial physicians, Lu Meng still felt that it was not enough, and asked with a chill between his teeth: "Why didn't the princess find out about the prince's illness? What should I do for my wife's negligence?"

Zuo Huai went up and replied tremblingly: "Go back to the emperor, after the crown prince died. The crown princess hung herself on the beam with a white silk, and she has gone with the crown prince."

Lu Mengfa pointed at his canthus, and asked sharply, "Did you commit suicide out of fear of crime?"

Zuo Huai knew that the princess concubine was a martyr, but in order to cooperate with the emperor to get rid of the guilt, he could only nod in cooperation: "Yes...yes...yes."

That night, the emperor was furious in the Taiyu Palace because of the prince's death. His roar shook the beams, smashing countless dishes and jade objects, and killing more than a dozen imperial doctors.

The next day, when the ministers learned of the prince's death, they were all shocked.No one thought that things would happen so suddenly, they all thought that the prince's body was just feeling unwell, and he would get better soon.

Following the death of the prince, Lu Meng immediately made a decree to restore Lu Wen's position as the prince, and personally appointed the posthumous title of the prince as Yide.The princess concubine was demoted to a commoner because of her negligence, and she was not allowed to be buried in the imperial tomb with the prince.The whole country will mourn for the prince for three months, and rituals and music are not allowed.For the prince's funeral, everything was ordered by the Emperor.

The situation in Kyoto changed, but only in the blink of an eye.A lot of people were forced to put on oxalic before they realized what happened.

When Lu Yan heard the prince's posthumous title in the Ninth Prince's Mansion, he smiled coldly.

Enriched in literature and virtue, still able to be indisputable is called Yi; loyal and pure, strong and gentle is called virtue.His father's feelings for the prince are really complicated.

After receiving the prince's obituary, the other princes who will be appointed outside will definitely rush back one after another in the name of mourning the prince, staring at the vacant prince's position like carnivorous vultures, and making their own plans.

How could he allow others to steal the achievements he had made?

The show has just begun.

He ordered someone to prepare the sedan chair, and the Nine Kings changed into a clean Taoist robe. Now he is going to meet his father, the emperor, to appease his pain of bereavement.

In front of the Taiyu Palace, Zuo Huai saw him and kindly persuaded him: "The crown prince has just passed away, and the emperor is immersed in grief and doesn't want to see anyone. The Nine Kings should go back."

The Nine Kings showed sorrow on their faces, and said politely to Zuo Huai: "This king is here for this reason, fearing that the father will be too sad and damage the holy body. It might be better if someone else is there to persuade and appease. "

After thinking about it, Zuo Huai made sense, and sighed: "The Nine Kings have a heart." He also told the Nine Kings that the Emperor hadn't eaten for a day, and hoped that he could persuade the Emperor to take the dragon's body as the most important thing, and he let the Nine Kings go Wang goes in.

When the Nine Kings entered the Taiyu Hall, they saw broken jade and porcelain everywhere, cups and plates were messed up, and the memorials unfolded under their feet were fragmented, and the upright handwriting on them was stained with dirty ink.

The inside of the palace was dark because there were no windows to light it. The sun outside was bright, but it couldn't shine into the huge palace.

He stepped over the memorial and looked around, but he didn't find his father.

Sitting behind the screen partition, Lu Meng heard footsteps and immediately asked, "Who?" The deep voice seemed to come from hell.

The Nine Kings stopped moving forward, knocked on the ground, and said in a hoarse voice: "It's my son, Dao Yan." It seemed that he had been crying for a long time.

Lu Meng suddenly asked: "What are you doing here? Didn't I not allow anyone to come in?"

"My son suddenly heard the news of the emperor's brother's death. I couldn't believe it. I came to the palace to confirm." He choked up and cried, "Who would have thought that the emperor's brother really passed away with his eyes closed. It is clear that my son has passed away." A few days ago I went to visit the emperor, at that time the emperor was still able to lose his temper with his ministers, why..."

"Brother Huang has always been humble and courteous to others, honest and kind-hearted, friendly to brothers, and should be an outstanding person. Looking forward to the future, if he can survive, he will be able to do something for the country and the people, and fulfill the expectations of his father. What a pity Passed away from illness in the prime of life. My son and minister lamented what a pity, wishing to replace him with his own body!"

He was crying with sincerity, Lu Meng was moved by it, and comforted him: "Okay, don't cry. If your emperor brother knows, seeing you feel so sorry for him, I will definitely not bear it."

The Nine Kings cheered up a little, and said: "No matter how painful my son is, it will not be as painful as my father's. My son heard from Zuo Huai that my father has not had a little rice water today. The man has passed away, and death cannot be revived. My father's condolences Be submissive and treasure the Eucharist."

The person behind the screen refused, "I'm not hungry." His tone became sad, "As long as I close my eyes, the prince's appearance will appear in front of my eyes..."

The Nine Kings wept silently again when he heard the words, as if recalled by his father's words, he said: "I also think of the prince's voice and smile. Recalling the past, when I was young, I was hunting around the mountains, and the bow was still held by the prince."

"The prince is virtuous." Lu Meng sighed quietly.He didn't say regret in his heart, but also blamed himself, he shouldn't have been so fierce to the prince in the past.

The Nine Kings took the opportunity to say: "I ask my father to set up an altar, set up a dojo, and pray for the soul of the emperor, so that the emperor will not go away alone."

"Will it work?" Lu Meng was skeptical.

"As long as the praying person is sincere enough to fast and recite the scriptures for 49 days, the call to the dead will enter the underworld and be heard by the dead. It will even move the dead, let them return to the world, and meet their loved ones in dreams "The Nine Kings said sincerely, "I am willing to do this for my father."

"Come closer and talk to me carefully." Lu Meng was aroused by him.

At the other end of the East Palace, Shu Dianhe finally found a trace of abnormality in the prince.

She carefully examined the red mole behind the prince's ear.The red mole was crimson in color, about the size of a fingernail, it was no different from the skin when it was touched, and it could not be wiped off or faded by pressing.The location is just hidden behind the earlobe, if it is not for close people to observe carefully, it will not be discovered just from the outside.Not to mention the mole, outsiders saw it and said that the prince accidentally put red ink on it.

This was discovered by the Zhongguan who took a bath for the prince. Shu Dianhe had specially told them before that if they found anything unusual on the prince, they must inform her. ——Some secrets will only fully emerge after death.

According to the prince's wet nurse, the prince has never had this mole around his ear since he was a child.Shu Dianhe became more confident, and the guess that he hadn't had an answer for a long time was confirmed.

The prince must have been poisoned, but she had never seen this kind of poison, and it was not recorded in medical books.It was probably made by the person who poisoned it, and the sign is the red mole behind the ear.

The secret of the prince's poisoning, as well as the toxicity and deceitfulness of the poison, even if she discovered it in time before the prince was alive, she would not be able to solve it in a short time, and the result would still be like this—this also shows that the other party is cruel and merciless. .

If the master... Shu Dianhe shakes his head, feeling guilty is useless, and avoids being too harsh on himself, the most important thing right now is to find the person who poisoned him.

According to toxicology, this red mole may have appeared after the prince's death, or it may gradually expand with the spread of the toxin.People who don't know medical skills will probably treat it as an ordinary mole and ignore it.

If it is the latter, then this red mole is a clear clue, which can be used to find out when the prince was poisoned, who he met before and after the poisoning, and what he ate, greatly narrowing the scope of the poisoned person.

Unfortunately, the Crown Princess has also passed away now, and no one can tell when the red mole on the Crown Prince's body appeared and how it developed.This clue can only be interrupted here.

Shu Dianhe remembered the nine characters written by the prince in her palm, the prince wanted to remind her to be careful about this person.

In this palace, besides the prince and princess, who else can be represented by numbers?Shu Dianhe didn't need to think about it, he could understand that these nine characters pointed directly to Nine King Lu Yan.
