Master Shen's Journey Through Time

Chapter 94 Peach Blossom Banquet

These two were originally Xiao Chuan's rivals, so Xiao Chuan naturally wanted to pick things up.

When the conflict between the two families was the greatest, Xiao Chuan asked King Jing to talk about the Northwest Governance Plan discussed by the House of Lords in the court hall.

Xiao Chuan directly stated that only one of Zhang Bei and Zhang Deng's forces can remain, otherwise it will definitely threaten the rule.

Obviously, the Zhang family will definitely choose Zhangbei, after all, the northwest is the Zhang family's base.

However, Zhang Deng spent a lot of manpower, material resources and energy during his visit to Beijing to gain a firm foothold. Naturally, it is impossible to resign immediately.

Then it was proposed to implement the Jiedushi system, and send two Jiedushi to check with Zhang Bei.

In this way, the power of the Zhang family returned to before liberation.

Zhang Deng immediately objected.

In the end, it was too noisy.

The funniest thing was that when Zhang Deng returned home, he had someone take Zhang Yuli back to his natal family. This was simply a humiliation to Prince Jing and his wife. Prince Jing immediately entered the palace, indicating that he had nothing to do with the Zhang family ever again.

But I have received bad news. Since Yuqing wrote to the emperor to withdraw Zhang Qingshan, he had a close conversation with Zhang Qingshan.

Afterwards, he resumed Zhang Qingshan's position, and did not write a letter requesting Zhang Qingshan's withdrawal.

Good news also came from the northwest. Zhang Qingshan defeated 1000 Xiongnu cavalry with [-] men.

Regarding this matter, Yuqing did not give me any explanation, and both Prince Jing and I had doubts.

It stands to reason that everyone around Yuqing is now on the opposite side of the Zhang family, so he should want Zhang Qingshan to be dismissed even more.

Since Yuqing didn't take the initiative to say it, I became even more suspicious, so I asked Wang Qinglou to investigate privately and issued a silver search warrant.

Although suspicion is a big taboo between couples, I am still more worried about whether Yuqing will be deceived by Zhang Qingshan without me and Liu Shan by her side.

Before I finished the investigation here, Zhang Deng encountered an assassin there, but it was a minor injury.

This time the assassination was very strange, a secret letter written by Prince Jing was found on the assassin.

However, the authenticity of this letter was doubted by everyone. Although the handwriting really looked like Prince Jing's, everyone knew that Prince Jing would not do such a stupid thing.

After all, Zhang Yuli was still Yuqing's concubine, and Zhang Deng and Prince Jing were in-laws.

The emperor thought so too. Zhang Deng only said that everything was up to the emperor, and he took the injury as an excuse to rest at home.

What an opportune time, the emperor just took this opportunity to weaken Zhang Deng's power.

Therefore, Zhang Deng realized that he had been cheated, and his resentment was full.

This became a sign of the break between the Zhang family and Prince Jing.

King Jing was not invited for Zhang Deng's birthday, even I received invitations, but I gave gifts and did not go.

According to Wang Qinglou's information, the assassination seemed to be done by the Huang family, but how could an old fox like Mrs. Huang take the initiative to provoke Zhang Deng.

I heard from Yanran that the emperor had a secret chat with Huang Taifu, but I always feel that Xiao Chuan's upright king does not match the assassin's painting style.

Could it be that Xiao Chuan really wanted to use Zhang Deng's hand to get rid of King Jing.

This thought seemed reasonable, but without any evidence, I dared not tell anyone. I just reminded Prince Jing and his wife to be more cautious recently.

But I was still negligent.

In March, the peach blossom forest on the back hill of the palace was in full bloom. Taking advantage of the clear weather, the queen mother held a peach blossom banquet for the female family members of the harem.

We unmarried young men also received invitations.

Sure enough, in this era, banquets are usually blind date meetings.

Yunyao is much healthier this time she is pregnant than last time, so this time I have been admiring the flowers with her.

Concubine Huang Gui and Shen Lan kept talking and laughing with the Queen Mother.

Even Concubine Shu and Concubine Hui, who hardly ever go out, also came.

Xiao Yunian brought Huang Taifu's son and other second-generation officials to fight around, and Yuxuan and Jianyan were also there.

But Jian Yan came over after talking about the conversation over there, flirting with Ming Tan under the guise of talking about poetry with me.

Waiting for them to get married.

Suddenly Qingxing came over with a plate of snacks.

"My lord, Prince Jing's mansion entrusted someone to send this to the palace. It is said that Prince Han sent it back from Xibeifei, so I sent it to you as soon as possible."

Thinking about Prince Jing's frequent gestures of kindness to me recently, and because of the big quarrel between the two of us before the expedition, Yuqing often gave me some gadgets from the Northwest.

So I didn't doubt anything, so I took it and put it on the table.

At this time, the people around the Queen Mother came to invite Qing Yuan.

We went along together.

The queen mother really wanted to take advantage of this time to help Qingyuan's family to rectify their name, some happy and some sad.

Although Concubine Huang was obviously panicked, she was an old Jianghu after all, so she quickly calmed down and arranged for someone to investigate the matter with a smile.

But Qing Yuan would definitely not let Concubine Huang go, and the Queen Mother also understood, so she handed over the matter to Xia Lengling's former maids, Concubine Hui and Concubine Shu, and Shen Lan for assistance.

Then everyone started to play again, Huang Guifei called her nephew to her side and said a few words.

Then her nephew went to talk to Xiao Yunian again, which aroused the indignation of some noble disciples around.

Ever since the queen mother wanted to help Qing Yuan get her name corrected, I've been staring at them. It would be strange if they didn't move.

In the end, I never imagined that the bad move that these adults have conspired for so long was to steal my food!

Originally, I had been preparing for a long time, fearing that they would make moves, but it turned out like this...

Because Zhang's family was not invited to the Peach Blossom Banquet, Zhang Deng was still recovering from illness, and Zhang Yuli was raising a baby.

The invitation letter was still sent, but they were very self-aware and didn't come.

Fortunately, their family didn't come, if Xiao Yunian came, maybe Xiao Yunian wouldn't just steal my food.

Because I was still with the queen mother at that time, I didn't care even though I saw them stealing my things.

Something went wrong.

There was a sudden noise over there.

Soon someone came to report that the fifth prince had been poisoned.

For a while, everyone became tense.

Concubine Huang quickly rushed over and called for the imperial physician.

The queen mother hurriedly asked Qing Yuan to go for treatment.

As a result, Qing Yuan shook her head directly at me and issued a death notice.

Concubine Huang Gui was really stunned this time.

Although Xiao Yunian is not his parent and child, the affection he has raised since he was a child is comparable to that of a parent and child.

Then, like all mothers, she hugged Xiao Yunian and called him, not believing the news of his death.

Call the imperial doctor who has been waiting for her to see.

As a result, when the emperor came, he brought all the people from Tai Hospital.

The diagnosis of all medical bigwigs is consistent.

Concubine Huang Gui came to grab me who was kneeling on the ground and pleading guilty like crazy.

Everyone is probably the first time to see Huang Guifei, who is so disrespectful. It is really the power of maternal love.

At this time, the matter of the fast analyst was in my mind.

The first possibility: King Jing poisoned me?This possibility was immediately denied by me;

The second possibility: someone poisoned me by the hands of Prince Jing, because they knew that there was a miracle doctor Qing Yuan (now everyone knows the goddess doctor who cured the Queen Mother) by my side, so they wanted to provoke the relationship between me and Prince Jing.

The most likely mastermind of this line is Zhang Deng.

The third possibility: framing, if the poison does not kill me, then poison others. The people at this banquet are all the big bosses of the Tianlong Dynasty and their children.

This line is most likely to be the secret work of other countries, because it was previously suspected that Zhang Deng had a secret relationship with the Huns, and the Huns and Tianlong were at war.

If I was really poisoned to death, Yuqing would definitely not be in the mood to fight, and the Xiongnu would definitely win.

If I'm framed, ditto.

The worst thing is to poison others to death, whoever dies, the Tianlong Dynasty will temporarily fall into chaos for a period of time.
