Chapter 1044 Poisoning
According to intelligence, when Zhu Di was young, he went on an expedition to Mobei, lying on the ice and lying on the snow, and suffered from the old root of rheumatism.When I was young, I could still support myself with my strong body and advanced martial arts. After the age of 50, with old age and frailty, rheumatism became more and more serious, which made Zhu Di miserable.Doctors across the country were mobilized, but they still couldn't relieve the emperor's pain.

There is no way to seek medical treatment. Zhu Di even placed his hope on the alchemists. He once set up a temple in Nanjing City to obtain immortal medicines, but later gave up under the persuasion of all the veterans.

From this piece of information, Wang Xian saw an opportunity.Because Zhu Di wanted to seek help from the immortal alchemist back then, but was blocked by others, that is to say, the emperor had not tried this road yet.I believe that as Zhu Di's illness worsens, as long as someone mentions it in front of him, the emperor will choose to give it a try...

Wang Xian also learned that it was Zhu Di's confidant eunuch Huang He who advised the emperor to seek immortality and medicine.

Wang Xian then ordered Wu Wei in the capital to find a character who is good at pretending to be a master of Taoism among the talented people in Jinyiwei.Wang Xian was very happy with the news that Wu Wei gave back. It turned out that there was a charlatan in Jin Yiwei's team who specialized in playing tricks and tricking people.

Under Wang Xian's instigation, Wu Wei applied for the swindler's certificate at the Daolu Department, and arranged for him to place an order at the Baiyun Temple, which Huang He often visited.The charlatan became Daoist Hu in Baiyun Temple. He took out the full transcript of his travels in the rivers and lakes, cheating and abducting, and managed to gain a lot of fame in Beijing in half a year, and finally attracted Huang He's attention.

Daoist Hu knew that everything he did was to attract Huang He's interest and let him introduce himself to Zhu Di.In front of Huang He, he rescued a few dying patients... Of course, those patients were all arranged by him.Huang He really believed it, prepared a generous gift, and solemnly asked him for advice on the art of rejuvenating spring with a dead tree.Hu Dao used to brag a lot, and supplemented with some tricks to deceive people, so that Huang He completely believed that he was a master who had obtained the Tao and was fully capable of curing the emperor's illness.

After the winter, there were many bad news and the emperor's condition worsened again. Huang He tentatively asked the emperor whether he could turn to the magic of the gods for help.Zhu Di was tortured so much that he didn't want to live. If there was a way, he would definitely try it, so he promised to meet Hu Shenxian, and that's how everything happened later...

As for the elixir that Hu Shenxian refined for the emperor, the formula came from experts in the Sixth Division of Jinyiwei.To put it bluntly, the red elixir is a strong tonic, which can stimulate the potential of the human body to the greatest extent, and make people feel energetic and full of strength in a short period of time. Insufficiency of Yang and kidney, stagnation of hot Qi, and the risk of stroke at any time.

If the red elixir is an explosive, the yellow elixir taken by the emperor today is the fuse to detonate the explosive, which will cause severe phlegm heat... and these two elixirs themselves are not toxic. The young eunuch who tested the elixir If you are strong, you will feel dry and hot at most after taking the medicine, and you will not have much reaction.But the emperor was already old and frail, and he had been taking the red pill for a long time, his whole body had become a powder keg, all he needed was a wave of phlegm heat, a wave of anger, and a stroke would definitely be triggered!
.

In the evening, Dai Hua confirmed that the emperor had indeed suffered a stroke... Wang Xian's first stage of revenge was over.As for when the next stage will start, it depends on how the various ghosts and gods perform after the emperor falls ill.

"My lord, everyone inside and outside the palace thinks that you gave the emperor a stroke." Dai Hua said with some concern, "Although no one dares to take your lord's life, I'm afraid it's impossible for us to leave Beijing..."

"That's natural." Wang Xian said with a wry smile: "Don't think about leaving the capital in a short time." He looked at Dai Hua and said, "Go and pack, prepare to move."

"Moving?" Dai Hua was taken aback for a moment.

"Didn't the emperor give me a marquis mansion?" Wang Xian sneered, "They will definitely urge me to move there quickly."

"Your Majesty, the Marquis's Mansion is probably not so easy to live in?" Dai Hua frowned.

"That's for sure," Wang Xian nodded and said, "It's just a decent term for residential surveillance..."

Although Wang Xian expected that he would move soon, he did not expect that the next morning, a eunuch came to pass the decree, ordering him to move immediately to the Marquis's mansion given by the imperial court, and the entourage should not exceed ten people.

"Whose order is this?" Dai Hua asked the eunuch who delivered the order.

"This was decided by the emperor a long time ago. Naturally, it is the emperor's will." The eunuch passing the decree said with a blank expression, "Our family will not be able to return to the palace until we see Uncle move over today."

"I think you are falsely preaching the imperial decree!" Dai Hua said angrily.

"Forget it, just obey the order." Wang Xian didn't want Dai Hua to pester him any longer, and accepted the order without hesitation.

Let the eunuch who passed the decree wait in the front hall, while Wang Xian and Dai Hua went to the backyard to prepare to move.

"My lord, you are so easy to talk, how can you agree like this?" Dai Hua asked very puzzled.

But Wang Xian said indifferently: "We have to let those people focus on the business as soon as possible, how can we add trouble to them again."

"At least bring dozens more people." Dai Hua was very worried about Wang Xian's safety.

"Don't worry, before the dust settles, everyone needs a stable situation. If you don't want the world to be in chaos, no one dares to touch me." Wang Xian said with a smile: "In that case, if you bring more people there, it's just going to jail with me. It's better to put it outside, when the time comes, there will be more people..."

"Hey..." Seeing that Wang Xian had made up his mind, Dai Hua had no choice but to implement it. He carefully selected seven martial arts masters and meticulous minds from the guards, and arranged for a maid to take care of Gu Xiaolian. He gathered ten of them himself.

At noon, Wang Xian and his party of 11 people drove out of the Earl's Mansion in three carriages.

Through the curtain of the car, Wang Xian saw that the street had been cleared.Along the way, there are soldiers and horses of Dongchang Jinyiwei, three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, fully alert, as if facing an enemy!
Obviously, those people were terrified by the grand occasion when Wang Xian entered the city. Fearing that something would happen again when he moved to the residence, those people put martial law on the road he must pass overnight.

Wang Xian laughed silently and closed the car curtain.Then he looked at Gu Xiaolian who was quietly sitting aside, held her hand, and said softly, "We're moving, but don't worry, there's nothing dangerous..."

With a reassuring look on Gu Xiaolian's face, she gently held his hand back.

.

The carriage drove into the Dongchang Hutong, and then drove straight into the Le'anhou Mansion, which is adjacent to the Dongchang Yamen.Sitting in front of the carriage, Dai Hua saw that the gate of the mansion was quite impressive, but when the carriage drove into the mansion, he found that the inside was like a prison - the courtyard walls on all sides were more than two feet high, and the walls were covered with thorns At first glance, it looks like it is from the same family as the courtyard wall of the Prison Temple.

Inside the courtyard wall is a back-shaped compound courtyard. In the outer courtyard, soldiers in armor are stationed, closely monitoring the narrow inner courtyard.The inner courtyard is Wang Xian's main residence. There are two south rooms, plus east and west wing rooms, a total of four rooms, surrounded by a small courtyard.There is a tall locust tree in the courtyard, with its towering branches covering the entire courtyard, it is a rare shade in summer.

"This should be the shabby Marquis's mansion in history, right?" Dai Hua stood in the courtyard, looking at the rather dilapidated surroundings. Although he was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help bursting into flames.He mocked the eunuch.The eunuch just smiled and said nothing.

"It's nothing, you can go back and reply to the order, and you still expect to be in charge of the meal?" Dai Hua glared at the eunuch.

The eunuch nodded with a smile, bowed to Wang Xian, and quietly withdrew.

"Actually, the grade here is not low." After the eunuch left, Wang Xian touched the stone table in the courtyard with his hands covered with dust, but he smiled indifferently: "Back then, King Gu was Before and after the abolition, it was imprisoned here. Now it is used to imprison me a little Marquis, I should be flattered."

"Then don't say anything about rewarding the Marquis's Mansion!" Dai Hua said angrily.

"I'm so angry with you, why don't you allow my son to embarrass us?" Wang Xian smiled and pushed open the door of the main room, only to see a four-foot-square room with moldy walls and spider webs hanging from the beams. , a kang platform is bare without any laying.Wang Xian rolled up his sleeves: "Stop talking nonsense, before dark, we have to clean up this room and heat up the kang, otherwise we will suffer at night."

Although Wang Xian wanted to do it himself, how could Dai Hua agree, and asked him and Gu Xiaolian to stay in the courtyard, and he brought someone to clean the main room carefully.

Hurry up, tidy up the main house before dark, and burn the kang again. When Wang Xian helped Gu Xiaolian into the house, he saw that the inside was really clean and warm, and he couldn't help nodding in satisfaction: "Okay." Wow, I can sleep well tonight." Then he said a little embarrassedly: "Go and tidy up your own room..."

"Your Excellency, you don't need to worry about us, we can make do with anything." Dai Hua smiled stupidly, and asked as if thinking of something: "Your Excellency, do you think King Zhao brought us here?"

"Zhu Di won't be so pretentious when he does things, and only a petty guy like Zhao Wang would do such a thing." Wang Xian said indifferently: "It's really not safe to pin all your hopes on him... ..."

.

In the Xiyuan bedroom, King Zhao had been waiting with the princes and ministers for a whole day, looking a little tired, but no one dared to leave.

King Zhao held his arms and stood outside the curtain, looking at the emperor who was still receiving acupuncture inside the curtain, but his heart had already wandered to nowhere.He really wanted to take the opportunity to send his father to Emperor Taizu, so that he could perfectly plant it on Wang Xian.However, Zheng He, like a door god, has been guarding the emperor's side, so that he has no chance to take advantage of it. Seeing the time passing by, the opportunity is also losing a little bit, Zhao Wang is anxious, but there is nothing he can do. It really means that there is no master in six gods.

Eunuch Yang walked in, leaned close to Zhao Wang, and whispered a few words.
