Reborn as King again

He Wenliu knelt in front of the Compassionate Ning Palace for so long, his knees could no longer bear it. After arriving at the Qingluan Palace, he got off the imperial chariot, was supported and limped towards the Qingluan Palace, I thought I told him to let the imperial doctor take a look at his knee, don't cause any root cause, the pain will be unbearable in the future when it will be cloudy and rainy, but the new moon suddenly pops up anxiously, inadvertently interrupting what I wanted to say.

"Concubine Wen, you are finally back," Xinyue said with an expression on the verge of tears, "Princess Yun'er...Princess Yun'er's condition is getting worse..."

"What?" He Wenliu hurried forward and asked, "What's wrong with Yun'er?"

Xinyue cried and said: "Princess Yun'er was still able to talk and drink medicine before, but now she is so sick that she has no consciousness at all. No matter what we call her, Princess Yun'er still hasn't woken up..."

"Where's the imperial doctor? What did the imperial doctor say?" He Wenliu's voice visibly began to tremble.

"The imperial doctor said...the imperial doctor said..." Xinyue gritted her teeth, and blurted out: "The imperial doctor said that Princess Yun'er is mainly because she can't make it through the past few days, so I'm afraid it's..."

"No!!" He Wenliu seemed to be running wild in the direction of Yun'er's bedroom, but He Wenliu's knees had no strength at all, and he fell down within two steps. Fortunately, he was supported by the eunuch beside him.

"Concubine Wen, be careful!"

He Wenliu was supported, and he had almost no strength in his body. I thought it would be fine to send him to Qingluan Hall, but now I really can't bear to see He Wenliu bear so much pressure alone. His son is imprisoned in the ancestral hall, and his daughter is sick. Got to be unconscious.I don't know how much Dan'er's death hit He Wenliu back then. It can be said that he passed all the love he gave Dan'er to Yun'er. Women's Pain!

I can't leave He Wenliu to face all this now, so I decided to stay with him.

Yun'er was lying on the boudoir bed in her bedroom with her eyes closed, her face pale and her lips bloodless. If it weren't for the thin beads of sweat and scorching body temperature on her forehead from time to time, I would feel that I was lying on the bed at this moment. On the bed was just the corpse of a child.

It is now late autumn, Yun'er is covered with a thick brocade quilt, and her forehead is covered with a brocade scarf wet with cold water, but these seem to have no effect.

He Wenliu came to Yun'er's bed, removed the brocade scarf from her forehead, touched her forehead again, worried, shook Yun'er's small body lightly, and called: "Yun'er..., Rhyme..."

Yun'er has long been unconscious, so she couldn't hear He Wenliu's call.

Yun'er is in good health and has never had any illnesses. She has been living a carefree life. Now she is lying quietly on the sick bed, which makes me not used to it.

He Wenliu called Yun'er's name one after another, with a crying voice. I stood behind He Wenliu, thinking that He Wenliu wanted to call Yun'er to see if she could wake up, but gradually I felt something was wrong.

At first, He Wenliu only touched Yun'er slightly, for fear of hurting her, but when he saw that Yun'er didn't respond, he kept shaking Yun'er's body like a demon, "Yun'er, wake up quickly!" Wake up, Yun'er..." Seeing that his hands were getting stronger and stronger, it seemed as if he wanted to shake Yun'er's bones apart.The inner eunuchs around me dare not interrupt at this moment, they all waited quietly.

"Concubine Wen!" I stepped forward and grabbed He Wenliu's arm, telling him to stop quickly, if something happened to Yun'er again.

"My daughter...can't be like this," He Wenliu heard me calling him, he turned his head obsessively, and said mechanically: "I can't do this, I can't let Yun'er leave me, I can't let her be like Dan'er... Dan'er...Dan'er..." He Wenliu silently chanted Dan'er's name over and over again, and I knew that He Wenliu had never forgotten the daughter who was with him when he was the loneliest.

I reached out and stroked the back of He Wenliu's head, let his forehead lean against my chest, patted his back, tried to comfort him, hoped that he would stop doing this, never forgetting a dead person, there is no conversation between us, I don't want to Give him some stimulation in words.He Wenliu's body was very thin, and he was still exuding a bit of cold air, and trembling a little.The way He Wenliu pushed Shake Yun'er vigorously just now really scared me. He Wenliu has never done this before, as if he was about to collapse at any moment.

After a long time, He Wenliu calmed down, but suddenly he pushed me back hard, trying to get out of my arms, but his strength was too weak, and I didn't move a little.

"Let go..." He Wenliu raised his head to look at me, his eyes blurred with tears.

"Concubine Wen, calm down." I ignored He Wenliu's struggle and continued to comfort him.

"Calm down? How do you tell me to calm down?" He Wenliu's expression was distorted. He avoided my sight and pursed his lips trying to stop the tears, but the more he cried, the more he cried: "I, He Wenliu, did something wrong in my previous life. Why are you doing this to me?"

"Five years ago, Dan'er was gone, and now even Yun'er is going to be taken away?!" He Wenliu said, turning his head to look at Yun'er, his lovely and lively daughter who had to be bedridden, sad and Helplessly said: "Dan'er was only four years old when he died, and now Yun'er is also four years old. Is it a hurdle to be four years old, my child can't cross it at all..."

Thanks to He Wenliu, the other party, I was able to endure my temper and persuade me, "Concubine Wen, don't think like this, Yun'er may not necessarily have an accident, and..."

"And? And what? Are you trying to say that Ji'er is still fine?" He Wenliu mocked, "I'm afraid Ji'er won't live as long as Yun'er!"

"Concubine Wen!"

"Am I wrong?" He Wenliu looked at me coldly, and said with a sneer, "Ji'er is locked up in the ancestral hall. I'm afraid everyone thinks Ji'er is the murderer. Persuading Weichen, if you want to save Yun'er's life, you have to sacrifice Ji'er? Because Ji'er is a murderer, Ji'er is determined to kill Yun'er?"

"He Wenliu! Enough is enough!" I pulled He Wenliu closer and warned viciously, "Think about the holy will, are you going to die!" I am not a good-tempered person, and it was the best I could do to coax him like that before.As soon as I got angry, all the eunuchs in the house knelt down.

"Fate? What do I need? Did I say something wrong?" He Wenliu didn't have the slightest fear. He still tried to get rid of my shackles, clamoring like crazy: "Ji'er is imprisoned in the ancestral hall, it's not clear It means that you also think Ji'er is the murderer? It won't be long before all the officials in the court will know, and then they will play with you and ask you to kill Ji'er!" He Wenliu obviously paused when he said this, suddenly like Thinking of something, he opened his eyes wide and said in disbelief: "Could it be intentional, right? Let the queen mother imprison Ji'er in the ancestral hall, is she trying to kill Ji'er with the hand of the minister?!"

He Wenliu is not stupid, he reacted so quickly.That's right, the murderer's theory is nonsense. As long as I don't believe it, the ministers and concubines in the palace will not take any action.So the empress mother's approach is very correct. Imprisoning Li Ji just shows that I have begun to have doubts about Li Ji's fortune-telling, so those who are pregnant with ghosts will definitely add fuel to the flames and show their fox tails, that is to say, as long as whoever is the first Ask me to touch Li Ji, even if that person is not the main messenger, he is related to the main messenger.

When He Wenliu saw that I hadn't spoken for a long time, he knew that he had guessed right. Unable to accept all this, he burst into tears, "Ji'er is not a murderer, how could you do this! You..." Probably because too many things happened today First, He Wenliu knelt in front of the Compassionate Ning Palace for so long, then Li Ji was imprisoned, Yun'er became unconscious due to illness, and after learning that I wanted Li Ji's life, the series of blows made He Wenliu overwhelmed. I struggled in my arms and passed out after a while.

The inner eunuchs who were kneeling on the ground quickly got up and helped He Wenliu. I looked at the tears on He Wenliu's face, sighed, and asked someone to help He Wenliu back to the dormitory, and then asked the imperial doctor to take a good look. No, no matter how excited you are, don't let your old illness relapse.

It is said that the emperor makes the ministers die and the ministers have to die, and the prince is also a minister, and it is not necessarily true that Li Ji's life will be killed.And He Wenliu was so noisy just now, according to the palace rules, it was too much. The He Wenliu I know is not the kind of person who can't control his emotions.I didn't stay longer in Qingluan Hall, and left after seeing He Wenliu lying on the bed unconsciously.

On the second day, according to the original plan, I will let people secretly spread the news about Li Ji being imprisoned in the ancestral hall to all the officials to see how they react.

But in the early morning before the news spread, Prime Minister He Wenyan suddenly stood up, knelt in the center of the Golden Luan Hall, and said with tears, "Your Majesty, have you heard what Ban Rixian said and killed the Sixth Prince?! Your Majesty , how could you do that!"

He Wenyan's sudden words caught me off guard, why did he suddenly say that I killed Li Ji?Don't talk about doing it, I haven't opened my mouth yet, I am dazed by He Wenyan's crimes against me.

I was stunned for a long time before slowly opening my mouth and saying: "Why did Prime Minister He say that? I didn't kill Ji'er."

He Wenyan was also stunned, and looked up at me with eyes that said, "If you dare to do it, you should dare to admit it." He Wenyan said slowly: "Your Majesty, don't lie to my humble ministers, you have already listened to the words of charlatan warlocks." I killed the sixth prince, but look, the other princes and princesses are still sick, that Ban Rixian is a liar, he is the one who wants to destroy our great harmony!"

There has been a lot of talk about murderers recently, but I have kept my mouth shut. Even if my children all got sick for no reason, I would not be moved. Therefore, the ministers in the court dare not make more judgments. They don't know whether I believe in the fortune-telling or not In other words, if I say the wrong thing and make me angry, the loss outweighs the gain.But now He Wenyan, Prime Minister of the Right, started the conversation first, tore through the piece of paper, and talked about it in front of everyone in the Golden Luan Hall.

What He Wenyan said was unclear, and the ministers who were watching were also confused, and they didn't understand what He Wenyan said.

Jia Fan, who was also the prime minister with He Wenyan, came out, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What does Prime Minister He mean by saying that? Do you think the emperor killed his son?"

"Exactly." He Wenyan replied neither humble nor overbearing.

"Bold!" I slapped the armrest of the dragon chair fiercely, pointed at He Wenyan and cursed: "How dare you accuse me! Say I killed my son?! When did you see me kill my son!" My heart burst Depressed, the plan was well planned, what kind of trouble did He Wenyan come out to cause!

"I don't dare," He Wenyan hurriedly kowtowed a few times, and continued: "Recently, the theory of the sixth prince's fortune-telling has become more and more intense. The sixth prince himself is just a four-year-old baby, and he is the nephew of this minister. The minister was afraid that he would not be able to think about it, so he handed over the sign a long time ago, and wanted to go to the palace to comfort him and let him not think too much, but yesterday when I went to the Qingluan Palace as a humble minister, I didn't see the sixth prince, and the concubine Wen was also ill. The bed seems to have been stimulated by something, and I don't even have the strength to take care of the fifth princess. I asked him but he didn't say anything, so I..."

"So you think that I have killed Li Ji without telling everyone?!" I sneered, "Prime Minister He is really imaginative."

"I don't dare!" He Wenyan, who has been helping me for more than ten years, knows my tyrannical temperament, and explained: "The sixth prince is the nephew of this minister, so I saw that the sixth prince disappeared yesterday, and the concubine Wen didn't want to say anything. , so I’m worried, I’m only going to run into Longyan today, please appease the emperor.”

I kept cursing in my heart, He Wenyan didn't enter the palace early or late, but I went to see He Wenliu yesterday, I had an argument with He Wenliu yesterday, I could see that he didn't want others to know that Li Ji was under house arrest in the ancestral hall , How could he tell He Wenyan where Li Ji is? No, He Wenyan accidentally misunderstood Li Ji and I silenced him.

Li Ji is not dead, at least he is not dead now. I looked at He Wenyan, who was kneeling tremblingly in the hall, and said, "I didn't do anything to Ji'er. He is in the ancestral hall now. It is only natural that you didn't see him yesterday, Prime Minister He." .”

"Ancestral hall?" He Wenyan frowned, thought for a moment, and then said: "Why did the emperor let the sixth prince stay in the ancestral hall? He is still young and doesn't understand anything. Are you really planning to listen to what Ban Rixian said?" , to sacrifice the life of the sixth prince?"

Seeing that He Wenyan's words became more and more unreasonable, Jia Fan said, "Prime Minister He, you are wrong. To put it bluntly, this is the emperor's family affair. Since the emperor has told you the sixth prince I'm in the ancestral hall, and I didn't touch him at all, why do you still ask this and that!"

After hearing Jia Fan's words, He Wenyan retorted: "The ancestral hall is usually a place where people who make mistakes go. The sixth prince has done nothing wrong, but it is not proper etiquette to spend the night in the ancestral hall," he said, He Wenyan asked me: "Your majesty, you imprisoned the sixth prince in the ancestral hall, do you think that the sixth prince is a murderer? Do you want to sacrifice the life of the sixth prince? You..."

"Full of nonsense!" I interrupted He Wenyan loudly, wishing to cut He Wenyan into pieces!I had planned everything well, but He Wenyan disrupted everything early in the morning, and asked me if I wanted to sacrifice Li Ji's life?How should I answer? !

If I replied that there was no such thing, then all the ministers would know that I did not believe in murderous sons and would not kill Li Ji, so how could I lure the snake out of the hole?If I said that I was going to kill Li Ji, then I would have just won the favor of the people behind the scenes. In the end, no matter whether I can find out the master envoy or not, and whether I kill Li Ji or not, I will have to bear the charge of murdering my son.Then He Wenyan is too capable of doing bad things!

"Your Majesty..." He Wenyan seemed to still want to know my answer.

This time I was really in a hurry, and all my good plans were disrupted. I took a deep breath, pressed the center of my eyebrows, and said: "I just looked at Ji'er in good health. Let him serve him in the ancestral hall." Besides, my son, no matter how wrong he is, I will not kill him, so you should rest assured now, Prime Minister He." But I couldn't swallow this breath in my heart, and I couldn't attack it so as not to cause trouble. Doubtful, so he said angrily: "But Prime Minister He, you actually suspect that I will kill my son. What is your intention? Could it be that in your heart, I will not even let my own son go?"

"The emperor forgives the sin, the emperor forgives the sin!" He Wenyan begged for mercy: "It's the humble minister who overstepped the limit. I shouldn't guess the emperor's mind randomly, and I ask the emperor to forgive the humble minister."

"Don't worry, you are the elder of the three dynasties no matter what you say, I won't do anything to you," I said slowly with my face tilted: "But I have seen you making troubles recently, so you go home and think behind closed doors for three months, and you are not allowed to go to court. , fine your salary for two years, and reflect on yourself.” Drive He Wenyan home first, lest he do anything wrong for Li Ji in the future.

"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty."

Being made such a fuss by He Wenyan, I can't check it from the ministers of the court. It seems that I have to find another way.
