Chapter 181 Killing the Father
The emperor's so-called "not too long", but it lasted for more than a month.

Under the coercion of the emperor, the entire harem was trembling, and even the imperial concubine stayed behind closed doors.The other princes and princesses are also more well-behaved than ever before, even Yue Wangshu's little Adi, who has studied hard recently and stopped digging out birds' eggs from trees!

On such days, under her father's watchful eyes, Meng Shu passed on news to Xiuyiwei almost every day, how did she choose the ranger that day, and how did she arrange for her to have a close relationship with that worthless younger brother of the Shen family? , and where did he get the highly poisonous Hedinghong, and he installed a privately castrated eunuch into the health care pharmacy as eyeliner...

Everything is investigated clearly.

Meng Shu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. In this way, her and her brother's lives can be saved, right?
That night, cuckoo cries came from outside the west window.

Meng Shu trembled all over, she had already found out what should be investigated, why did she still...

She tried her best to calm down, and opened the back window, the seemingly inconspicuous domestic servant was still outside the window, this time he handed over a small bottle, "This is Crane Crown Red, please put it in Lord Hou's soup. "

Meng Shu's eyes widened, her teeth chattering uncontrollably.

The servant whispered: "This is the emperor's intention." He put the small bottle on the inside of the window sill, "Miss, let's figure it out."

Then it disappeared without a trace!
Tremblingly, Meng Shu picked up the small bottle, closed the window, and then her whole body went limp and fell to the ground!
The emperor wanted her to kill her father with her own hands! ! !
Of course, she also understood that her father was doomed to die!But she never expected that the emperor would give her such a task!
But... before the emperor deliberately placed the assassination on himself, wasn't it for the purpose of punishing the Meng family? !

Meng Shu suddenly understood that the emperor did not intend to make his father's crimes public! !It also means that the nine clans will not be implicated!But the premise is that the father must die!
Meng Shu closed her eyes, her hands gradually stopped shaking.Father, father, you were the one who came to kill me first... For my brother, for the whole Meng family, no wonder I am unfilial.

Under the darkness of night, the study in the Hou Mansion was still brightly lit.

The servant politely but firmly stopped a plump and beautiful woman from outside the room.

The woman was holding a cup of tonic soup and stomped her feet angrily, "Please pass it on again!"

"Aunt Xiao, please don't embarrass the villain. Master Hou is busy and doesn't see anyone." The servant said politely.

This Aunt Xiao is the most beloved concubine of the Marquis of Qing Ning, so she is unavoidably arrogant, "I don't believe it, the Marquis has no official position for such a long time, busy during the day and busy at night! Hmph! I must have a new love again!"

The boy looked helpless, "It's nothing, don't worry about it, Auntie."

"Then let me go in and have a look!" As she said, Aunt Xiao wanted to force her way in.

The little servant was in a hurry, and hurriedly stopped in front: "Auntie continues to make trouble, it will only make Hou Ye angry!"

At this time, the eldest girl Meng Shu came lightly, "Aunt Xiao, don't think about it, people in the capital are panicking recently, and my father is inevitably worried about the safety of the Holy One."

Aunt Xiao couldn't help thinking, is the master so loyal? ?

Meng Shu glanced at the tray held in Aunt Xiao's hand. There was a cup of tonic soup and a small spoon on it, she stepped forward to open the tonic soup, lowered her head and sniffed it: "Auntie Xiao must have stewed this soup for several hours. Right?" The large sleeves fell on the tray, and he put the small spoon into the sleeves calmly, and replaced it with an identical one.

"Isn't that right!" Aunt Xiao looked aggrieved, "It's been a whole afternoon!"

Meng Shu then said to the boy: "Why don't you do this, at least take this soup to father."

The boy hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward to take the soup, and said: "Then please go back, Miss and Auntie."

Although Aunt Xiao was a little dissatisfied, but after all the soup was sent in, she went away resentfully.

Meng Shu watched Aunt Xiao go away, so she also set off to go back.

Unexpectedly, the servant turned back again and said in a low voice, "Master Hou invites the girl in."

Meng Shu's expression tightened slightly, then she nodded calmly, and walked slowly into the study, only to find that the soup was just placed on the desk beside it, not moving at all.Meng Shu's brows tightened, and she hurried forward to say hello: "Father, since Xiuyiwei has already arrested the Shen brothers, father should be at ease, why..."

Over the past few days, Meng Dongchuan has been restless day and night, and his favorite concubine ignored him, and now he looks much haggard.

"If I don't get convicted for a day, I won't be at ease." Meng Dongchuan's brows have already frowned into a word "Chuan". What's more, the eunuch he placed in the pharmacy was also arrested and sent to the Embroidery Guard, in case something comes out of the confession. ... But it's not good.

Meng Shu brought the soup to the desk calmly, "Father, drink the soup to moisten your throat, this is Aunt Xiao's wish."——Speaking, Meng Shu took a sip from the soup bowl, "Again Put it down, it will be cold."

Meng Shu knew that her father was suspicious, and the servants had to try the decoction before they were willing to eat it. Now that she tasted the decoction herself, her father would be at ease.

Sure enough, Meng Dongchuan took the soup, and Meng Shu hurriedly handed over the important spoon.

Seeing Meng Dongchuan drink the whole bowl of tonic soup spoon by spoon, Meng Shu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Father, let's go to rest earlier, my daughter is retiring."

But when Meng Shu just returned to her boudoir, Meng Dongchuan in the study in the front yard clutched his chest and fell to the ground.

The Hou Mansion in the middle of the night instantly became a mess.

Fortunately, it was only smeared on the spoon, so the portion of Hedinghong was not enough, and it was not fatal immediately, but Meng Dongchuan still fell into a coma, as if he had a sudden emergency.

The next day, the news spread to the palace, and the emperor immediately sent the imperial physician to treat him.

The second prince's companion is Meng Yuanqing, and the fourth prince's companion is Meng Yuanxi. The two brothers also returned home immediately to serve their father.

There were also many children who all waited on the sick bed, coupled with the imperial physician's efforts to treat him - Meng Dongchuan died as expected.

As for the cause of death, the imperial physician gave a perfect answer, saying that it was a sudden heart palpitation, and because of old age and frailty, he couldn't afford it.

Yue Wangshu himself didn't know what method the emperor used to secretly punish Meng Dongchuan. Anyway, the death of this scourge would be a good thing for everyone.

The emperor decreed that the brother-in-law should be buried with the ceremonies of a duke, and he also authorized his eldest son, Meng Yuanqing, not to descend to the title of marquis. In this way, everyone praised the emperor as a first-class benevolent king who loved the original queen and treated the descendants generously.

As for the assassination of the emperor, it was lightly attributed to a crazy ranger. However, the Shen brothers had a lax family tradition and made friends with various religions, so they were fined their salaries and demoted from their official positions.

Concubine Lan Gui's mother and son made a false alarm, and Quanxu Quanwei was released.

The emperor's assassination case ended anticlimactically with unexpected results.For a while, I don't know how many people were puzzled.Maybe some smart people vaguely guessed something, but they didn't dare to say anything.

In short, the strange thing, the strange end.
