Chapter 260 The Troubled Mid-Autumn Festival
A baby was added to the East Palace. Four wet nurses, two nannies, two older girls, two younger girls, and a whole room of people were surrounding him.As long as he was awake, the palace was bustling with activity.

Xie Ruitang couldn't help but think of his miserable childhood when he was hiding in the cold palace, eating a bowl of braised pork, and secretly hiding two pieces for Yan Shiyi. In comparison, it was like the sky and the earth.

"I am the emperor's son, and he is just the prince's son. Why do you think the difference is so big?" Xie Ruitan shook his head and muttered.

Yan Shiyi was the first friend he made in his life. Of course he knew his childhood situation in the cold palace. He smiled and said, "You don't have to envy him. Your son will definitely not be able to make friends like me." The two met each other. Looking at each other with a smile, they all recalled the childhood memories of the two hiding in the abandoned side hall to practice martial arts, eat dim sum, and share braised pork.

Yes, whatever life encounters bring, there will be gains. As long as you work hard and face it optimistically, life will not let you down.It is better to live in the cold palace than to have brothers who died young.How can I meet the confidant I made in the cold palace?
"August [-]th is only a few days away. What are you going to do?" Yan Shiyi asked the prince. He was always talking about embarrassing things like spitting up milk, burping, pooping and farting, but he didn't know if he was happy. Should I forget about this?Or have you made arrangements and are confident?
"Do you still remember that Feng Mingze gave each of us a fan?" the prince asked with a smile.

"Remember! It's the one with the knife hidden in the fan bone... Wait! No wonder I always feel that the fan in Lu Ping's hand looks so familiar. Could it be that he is holding the one you have?" Yan Shiyi's one has always been there. Lost in a drawer, never used, he figured he wouldn't need that childish weapon.

"Exactly. Haitang pretended to be Guo Kuan's hand and mixed the fan with his birthday gift and gave it to Lu Ping. I also asked a Yulin guard to give him some tips on how to use the bone fan knife. Unexpectedly, he was very I love it and fan it every day. Do you think this is God's will?" The prince smiled.

Yan Shiyi stroked his palms and smiled and said: "Wonderful, wonderful! He has offended so many ministers, and he thought that this weapon would allow him to protect himself in the event of an accident. The emperor dared to carry a weapon with him. I'm afraid he is the only one who has it. Such courage. We need to find someone to keep an eye on him and make sure he doesn’t forget to bring it with him that day.”

The two were chatting and laughing when Shen Congxi hurried in, placed a copy of the newspaper on the prince's table, and said directly:
"On August [-]th, the emperor will invite immortals to the palace. In order to invite immortals this time, the emperor has appointed three more imperial masters. Now he is with these imperial masters every day. It is said that he only takes pills. You don’t even need to eat? Have you really become an immortal?" Cong Xi said so hard that he doubted whether he had heard it wrong.

The prince nodded and said, "That's right. The princess said that it's called Bigu Pill. It can make people drink only water without eating for a period of time without feeling hungry. Not only can they survive, but they also look energetic. But If things go on like this for a long time, it will also damage the internal organs."

Thinking of his father doing such a stupid thing, the prince suddenly raised his voice angrily and said: "We kill Cao Baoli, and then there is Lu Ping. If we kill Lu Ping, maybe there will be a new servant in power. To say it is treason, the monarch Without integrity, there will never be justice in the court!"

The two of them didn't know how to answer the prince's words, so they couldn't follow the prince and scold his father, right?Yan Shiyi smiled awkwardly and said: "With Lu Ping, we also benefited, didn't we? King Kang was also suppressed and couldn't jump up."

The prince sneered and said: "His plan is good. He wants to use Lu Ping to destroy me, and then represent the righteous master Qingjun side. Naturally, he will get support from the government and the public. King Xian and King Cheng both lack power and are not his opponents. The prince , and even the position of emperor, isn’t it all in his pocket? I didn’t know before that he was also an ambitious person.”

In his previous life, why did Xie Ruiji not stop the poisonous wine and allowed Lao Wu to drink it by mistake and die? Is there a reason he didn't understand?
The three of them discussed the details of the Mid-Autumn Festival and prepared to go.

Returning to the East Palace, Xie Ruitang first went to see the little tiger.After only a few days, Xie Ruitang felt that he had grown up a lot, his face was no longer wrinkled, and he really looked like a tiger with a tiger head.He had never seen this new life bearing his mark in his previous life.Haitang looked at him in a daze, then smiled and said: "Are you stupid? Does it look like you saw yourself when you were a child? The mother-in-law said that the little tiger looks very much like you, and said that when you were a child, you were also so tiger-headed. It's great. It’s like watching you grow up.”

"Next time, you try to give birth to a princess who looks like you when you were a child, and I watched her grow up. I will treat us as childhood sweethearts." Xie Ruitan smiled and held Haitang in his arms.Cheng Haitang, who became a concubine, was a little more mature than before. This was something Xie Ruitang had never seen before in her previous life.

"Are you all ready? Today I heard that the emperor ordered that several princes do not have to return to Beijing during the Mid-Autumn Festival. It should be that Lu Ping is afraid that the princes will object. Once the Mid-Autumn Festival is over, the edict has been issued, and it is too late for anyone who wants to object." Haitang. She looked at Xie Ruitang worriedly.Without the support of several princes, I don’t know if I can grasp the situation by then.

Xie Ruitang smiled and said: "Preparations have already begun. But I guess that before the Mid-Autumn Festival, the queen may find a way to make the concubine die of illness. We cannot let her die. I want her to tell the truth to the emperor in person. After all, It is too difficult to refute the words that come out of the mouth of the immortal master. At that time, the false will be confused with the real, and the true will become false."

Haitang nodded, thought for a while and said to him: "I can help with Dao Concubine's matter. Ask Guo Kuan to arrange a trustworthy person beside Dao Concubine. No matter whether the queen uses force or poison, he will find a way to help her fake her death. . I have a fake death drug, even if it is judged by Yu Yuan, he will never be able to tell."

Xie Ruitang smiled, scratched Haitang's nose with his index finger, and whispered in her ear: "You are just a ghost! It is indeed better to fake death than to let her live openly, just to make the queen think that the child is No one will ever know the truth, and she will do it even more recklessly."

In the evening, Guo Hongbang went back and forth quietly: "Everyone has already made arrangements, so let's bring the medicine and prepare it."

Fortunately, they acted quickly, and two days later, the queen did take action.Guo Kuan arranged for a young chamberlain and an experienced aunt to exchange the fake death medicine for the bowl of bird's nest porridge served in the imperial kitchen.When her aunt saw that the queen was using poison, she immediately applied the prepared chicken blood on her seven orifices. This was what the princess taught her.

Soon, Guo Kuan came over with the judge from Tai Hospital. The judge felt his pulse, looked at his pupils, and nodded towards Guo Kuan.Guo Kuan followed the queen's wishes and did not pursue the matter. He just said it was a sudden illness, had someone wipe the blood on her face, and quietly carried the concubine out.

The Taoist concubine was carried out of the palace, loaded into a carriage, and immediately sent to an unopened mansion.Master Shiyi asked someone to feed her the antidote. When Taoist concubine Qi Leyao woke up, the anxious faces of Qi Lefeng and Wu Di appeared in front of her eyes.

Qi Leyu was surprised and happy. After giving birth to the child, the fear and grievances she had felt for so many days suddenly burst out, and then she hugged her brother and started crying in grievance.
