Chapter 262 Golden elixir urges death
In the side hall next to him, a woman in plain clothes walked out under the escort of Jinwu Guards.The Taoist concubine had never shown her face in front of the ministers, and no one recognized her, but Lu Ping's heart dropped: that woman was none other than the Taoist concubine Qi Leguang.

"The sinful woman meets the emperor." Qi Leyu knelt in front of the emperor and said calmly: "The sinful woman was favored by the emperor, but she did something that was unworthy of the emperor. The child born to the sinful woman is indeed not the prince, but a child born with the queen and Lu. He was born to a slave of the Wu family whom your lord found. The queen wanted to kill the guilty woman to silence her, but the guilty woman spared her life in order to expose this lie face to face."

The emperor slowly raised his head. All the muscles on his face had drooped, as if he had aged 20 years.The red glow on his face faded, revealing a look of deathly gray.

On the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, because the emperor wanted to go to the front square to invite immortals to pray for blessings, Lu Ping was afraid that the emperor would not be able to hold on for long, so he asked the imperial master to increase the amount of elixirs for the next day.

Lu Guoshi said hesitantly: "Master Lu, it's not that I don't want to part with this golden elixir. It's just that three golden elixirs are the limit for one day. If you increase the amount, this golden elixir is very strong. I'm afraid that the emperor's body won't be able to bear it!"

"What's the point of increasing the portion just for one day? Since it's an elixir, it won't kill anyone. Just bring it. I just want His Majesty to cheer up for the whole day, so that people know that the emperor is still fine, blocking those ministers. mouth." Lu Ping disagreed.

After discussing with several other national masters, Lu Guoshi felt that it would be okay to add a large amount at once, so he prepared four golden elixirs and sent them to Wuying Palace.When Guo Kuan looked at it, he remembered what Master Lu once said to him, and his brows twisted into the character "Chuan": You are taking His Majesty's life!
But Lu Ping immediately took the golden elixir, held the box and walked towards the emperor with a smile. As he walked, he quietly took out another golden elixir from his arms and added it to the box. Then he handed the box to the emperor for inspection: "Your Majesty, tomorrow It's the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the Imperial Master has specially prepared two more golden elixirs to honor you!"

The emperor had long wanted the Imperial Preceptor to increase the dosage, but the Imperial Preceptor and Guo Kuan had always disagreed.Now that there are two more pills, the emperor is naturally very happy.Yes, it’s a holiday!Who doesn't add a meal or something.

At this moment, the emperor, who was sitting on the golden dragon chair and had taken five golden elixirs, could no longer hold on. The Taoist concubine gave him a blow in front of all the civil and military officials. He felt that all the blood in his body was flowing. Headache.

He looked straight at Sun Yanxi and forced himself to say through his teeth: "Where is the adulterer?"

Zhao Muche, who was standing nearby, clapped his hands, and Jin Wuwei picked up a person from behind the crowd, it was Wu Di.

"Wu...Wu Di, a slave of the Wu family, see the emperor." Wu Di said tremblingly, not even daring to lift his head.

"You bitch! Who instigated you..." The emperor held his breath, feeling that his blood was about to spurt out of his mouth.

Wu Di kowtowed repeatedly and said: "It was all arranged by the Empress. The Empress said that as long as the Taoist concubine gives birth to a son, she will ensure that the villain's parents stay in the Wu Mansion to live a long life, otherwise..."

After hearing this, Lu Ping knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, check it out! This person is a slave of the Empress's mother's family, and the Concubine Dao was also sent to the palace by the Empress. Everything is done by the Empress and has nothing to do with Lu Ping. Your Majesty!" Now that there are both witnesses and physical evidence, he must quickly clear his relationship with the queen.

The emperor's heart was beating very fast, his head began to feel dizzy, and his face began to turn reddish from the dead gray just now. He obviously felt that his eyes were not working properly.Without even looking at Lu Ping, he raised his hand and pointed tremblingly at Sun Yanxi: "You tell me!"

Sun Yanxi reported: "Your Majesty, the ministers received a secret report, saying that Lu Ping colluded with the queen and wanted to send the fake seventh prince to the position of crown prince, and then he rebelled, and he kidnapped the young master to order the princes..."

Before Sun Yanxi could finish speaking, Lu Ping interrupted with a scream: "False accusation! You are making a false accusation! I was just deceived by the queen and did not know that the concubine's birth was a fraud. What evidence do you have for me to conspire against you?! "

Lu Ping was confident that there was no clue, and it was in Sun Yanxi's hands.Indeed, he had only been in power for a short time, and he was very smart. He was good at leaving a way out for himself in everything he did. If the prince had not arranged it in advance, there would really be nothing he could do against him. "Evidence?" Sun Yanxi pointed at Lu Ping and sneered: "The evidence you want is in your hands!" Before he finished speaking, Zhao Muzhe, who had been standing behind Lu Ping, snatched it from Lu Ping and put it in his sleeve. He took the fan in his bag and presented it to the emperor.

Before Lu Ping could react, the fan was snatched away.Lu Ping started to break into a cold sweat: This fan is really a murder weapon!But I didn't intend to use it to deal with the emperor?

Guo Kuan took the fan, opened it pretentiously, looked back and forth, pinched it everywhere, and finally pulled it out with his hand, pulling out a sharp knife from the fan bone, the fan bone knife!

The light of the knife stimulated the emperor. He coughed twice violently, looked at Lu Ping and asked tremblingly: "You hold this knife around me every day. Do you want to kill me at any time? This is not treason, but also What? Someone... drag Lu Ping and the adulterer and the adulterous couple down and chop them down!"

Several people from the Jinwu Guards immediately came up and dragged the three people down.Lu Ping screamed that he was wronged all the way. The Jin Wuwei who was dragging him got impatient and stabbed him. Lu Ping tilted his neck and fell silent.

Qi Leguang and Wu Di walked peacefully.The prince promised to let Qi Lefeng and their son go. After today, Qi Lefeng will take their son and leave the capital to find a place where no one knows him.

"Guo Kuan, help me go back...go back..." the emperor hummed softly.

Guo Kuan saw that the emperor was starting to sway, so he quickly asked his apprentice Guo Hongbang to support the emperor with him on the left and right. As soon as he took a step, the emperor tilted his head and his whole body went limp.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" Seeing the emperor fainted, Guo Kuan was shocked and couldn't help shouting.

The imperial doctor and court judge, who had been called by Guo Kuan, immediately ran over with the medicine box.The prince, King Xian, King Kang and King Cheng who were standing under the stage also rushed forward.

King Kang was crowded among the princes, and he had a bad idea: his mother and concubine asked him to stay calm and follow the example of the oriole behind him, and let the queen take action first, and then they would come out to take advantage.Now my father probably has no time for him to create opportunities to overthrow the prince!

The two imperial physicians first pinched the person, and after the emperor breathed a sigh of relief, the court judge gave the emperor injections on several major points, and fed the emperor a life-saving pill.Seeing that the emperor's eyelids moved and his eyes opened slightly, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Yu Yuanjing did not want the emperor to die. He was shocked when he saw Master Sun presenting a medical record just now: He was on duty this morning, and he personally checked the medical records. Before going to the main hall, he locked them in the cabinet with his own hands. How could the medical records appear in Mr. Sun's hands now?
Judge Yu didn't have time to think about it, so he turned around and said to the princes: "The emperor has regained his composure for the time being, so he will carry it back to be raised. I will go back to the imperial hospital to prepare the decoction."

Guo Kuan quickly asked people to carry the emperor onto a light bamboo bed, which was used by the servants to take a rest.

Several chamberlains carried the emperor back to Wuying Hall on the bamboo bed.
