The concubine is poisonous

Chapter 89 The Bad News

After lunch, the Empress Dowager and Ran Yunmo called over the imperial doctor who was trying to prepare an antidote for Ye Junyan.

Ran Yunmo pointed to a pile of medicine bottles on the table and said, "These were found from Gu Xinning's room. See if there is any antidote the emperor needs."

"Yes." The imperial doctor opened the medicine bottles one by one and poured out the pills or powder inside and carefully screened them. Halfway through the inspection, the imperial doctor finally held one of the bottles of medicine excitedly, and said tremblingly, "I found it." I found it, God bless my lord, I found it!"

Seeing that the imperial doctor was holding the bottle of medicine that Ran Yunmo put in, the empress dowager and Ran Yunmo smiled at each other and said, "Well, since you have found the antidote, let's take it to the emperor, I hope The dragon's body can recover soon, and there are still many important military and political affairs in the court that need to be decided by the emperor."

"Yes." The imperial doctor said, picked up the medicine bottle, and hurried to give Ye Junyan some medicine.

After a while, the imperial doctor came to inform that Ye Junyan had woken up, but the dragon was a little weak and needed to rest more. The empress dowager nodded and asked the imperial doctor to go down to receive the reward.

After that, the Empress Dowager and Ran Yunmo came to visit Ye Junyan in the room and then left to go back to their respective palaces.

Ye Junyan said that after everyone left, his body gradually recovered some strength, and he called the personal eunuch to change his clothes, saying that he wanted to go out for a walk.

So, with the support of the eunuch, he walked towards the main hall. As soon as he entered the main hall, Ye Junyan turned his attention to the place where Gu Xinning's iron cage was placed.But as far as the eye can see, there is nothing but the iron cage, except for the walls and pillars.

Ye Junyan's heart trembled, and he quickly grabbed the eunuch's sleeve and asked, "Where's the iron cage? Where's Gu Xinning?"

The little eunuch replied: "Report to the emperor, Miss Gu has been beheaded by all the ministers for poisoning the emperor and plotting against him."

"Deal with beheading? Bastard, when will it be their turn to discuss matters in the harem, and who gave the order?" Ye Junyan asked angrily.

Seeing Ye Jun talking about business, the little eunuch quickly replied: "My Majesty, it was the Empress Dowager who beat the Dragon Drum and hurriedly summoned all the ministers to discuss the execution. The final judgment was made by Lord Du."

"Duwang Mountain? Rising Dragon Drum?" Ye Junyan asked in disbelief.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The little eunuch replied timidly.

Ye Junyan was furious, but he felt dizzy and his feet were soft. Fortunately, the little eunuch was supporting him, but he staggered back a few steps and did not fall down.

The little eunuch supported Ye Jun and said, "Your Majesty, take care of the dragon's body."

Ye Junyan barely stood firm and asked in a rough tone: "Then how is Gu Xinning doing now?"

Seeing that Ye Junyan was agitated, the little eunuch was afraid that telling Ye Junyan the news of Gu Xinning's death would make Ye Junyan even more agitated, so he stammered: "Miss Gu Gu she she."

Seeing the little eunuch's hesitation, Ye Junyan became more and more annoyed, pushed the little eunuch away and shouted angrily: "How is she?" After shouting, he staggered again.

Seeing this, the little eunuch hurried over to support Ye Jun again and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, it's important to take care of the dragon's body."

"Say!" Ye Junyan roared again.

"Miss Gu, she's already executed." The little eunuch finally mustered up the courage to speak out.

Although Ye Junyan had already expected this result, when he heard it with his own ears, he still couldn't bear it, and his feet felt soft again. This time the little eunuch didn't help him well, so Ye Junyan sat on the ground all at once.

Ye Junyan sat on the ground in a daze and muttered, "Dead? Is the true way dead?"

The little eunuch thought that Ye Junyan was asking him a question, so he quickly said: "Yes, Your Majesty, Miss Gu is really dead, and the empress dowager personally supervised the beheading."

Ye Junyan asked absently, "Where's the corpse?"

The little eunuch looked at Ye Junyan, but didn't dare to speak. Seeing this, Ye Junyan grabbed the little eunuch's chest and asked, "Where's the corpse!"

"The empress dowager said that Miss Gu is a witch, and even if she dies, it will bring misfortune to the palace, so... so...the eminent monk Le Gai was invited to perform a ritual on Miss Gu's body, and then burned it." The little eunuch said in a trembling voice.

"Burn?" Ye Junyan supported the ground, struggled to stand up, pointed to the place where Gu Xinning's iron cage was placed before and asked, "Where's the iron cage?"

The little eunuch replied: "The iron cage has been moved out. The Empress Dowager said that someone will be called to dismantle it in the next two days."

Ye Junyan rubbed his chest in pain, let out a long breath and said, "Go! Move the cage back to me and put it in its original position. No one is allowed to move."

When the little eunuch heard this, he said with some embarrassment: "But the Empress Dowager."

Ye Jun said displeased and furious: "Are you my slave or the empress dowager's slave? If I tell you to go, go!"

"Yes, I will do it as soon as I can." The little eunuch trembled and continued: "I will help you in to rest first, and then I will go immediately."

"No, you go now, I'll wait here." Ye Junyan said, and then he was going to sit on the seat where he usually corrected the memorials.

The little eunuch knew that he couldn't hold back the emperor, so he had to help Ye Junyan sit down on his seat, and then called an eunuch to help him go to the iron cage.

After a while, several young eunuchs carried the empty iron cage into the hall, and put the iron cage in its original position.

Ye Junyan looked at the iron cage and asked, "What's inside?" Ye Junyan asked, of course, the chairs and tables that Gu Xinning had used.and floor coverings.

The little eunuch replied: "The empress dowager said that the things used by Miss Gu are all ominous things, and they have been cremated together with Miss Gu's body."

"Cough cough cough." Hearing this, Ye Junyan coughed sharply: "It's the empress dowager again, cough cough cough, you all go down, I want to sit alone for a while."

"Yes, my servant is leaving, and my servant is guarding outside. If the emperor orders me, I will call my servant to come in at any time." The little eunuch bowed and said, then stepped back out of the hall and closed the door behind him.

After the little eunuch went out, Ye Junyan insisted on walking to the iron cage, and began to recall the scenes when Gu Xinning was there, thinking about it, tears gradually welled up in his eyes.Ye Junyan thought of the process of Gu Xinning bickering and fighting with him, and thought of countless nights of sleeping together.

Ye Junyan muttered in his mouth: "Hmph, if you really want to harm me, why wait until today? If you intend to harm me, why would you use such a deadly poison? I will keep it in my heart, don't worry, I will definitely avenge this, your revenge, your father's revenge, I will avenge it for you."

Gu Xinning was sitting bored in the dilapidated room, looking at the dilapidated window with a numb expression. This was something the abandoned concubine who originally lived here had to do every day. Zuo Haobai discovered through many days of observation that this Abandoned concubine Ming would sit so stupidly for several hours every day, but after a long time of confinement in such a place, she would gradually find that there was really no other way to pass the time other than being in a daze, because here There are no books to read, no one to talk to, nothing to do for entertainment, all you can do is just be in a daze for a long time.

But there are many forms of daze, you can sit in a daze, you can stand in a daze, you can lie in a daze, and you can even squat in a daze.

Just when the bored Gu Xinning was trying to pretend to be even more bored, Zuo Haobai had already quietly entered the room.As soon as he entered the room, Zuo Haobai dodged into a hidden corner of the room. Gu Xinning continued to stare at the window with a numb expression, and asked softly, "Have you heard any news?"

Zuo Haobai hid in the corner and responded softly: "Chang Kong used the identity of Xiao Anzi to inquire in Qinzheng Hall and found that Ye Junyan was already awake. He seemed very angry and excited after hearing about your incident. How is it? Don't you feel very happy?"

Gu Xinning said: "Happy your head, when did you get me out, I was really happy."

Zuo Haobai smiled and said, "What's the hurry, I think you are being delivered food and drinks every day without being disturbed by anyone, isn't it good."

Gu Xinning cursed in a low voice: "Okay, you big-headed ghost, tell me quickly, how are your arrangements outside? When can we leave here, it's really hard work to pretend to be in a daze like this every day."

Zuo Haobai said: "Don't worry, I have already sent a letter to Leng Lengfeng, and I can act as soon as I make arrangements in the next few days."

Gu Xinning said in a voice almost desperate: "Ah! It will take a few more days! I really can't bear this kind of life, why not go out and ask the empress dowager to cut it off to save trouble."

Zuo Haobai smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll call for someone and tell the Empress Dowager to come over."

Gu Xinning hurriedly stopped her and said, "Don't, don't, I'll just bear with it for a few more days, and I'll settle the score with you after I get out."

"Hmph, let's go." After Zuo Haobai said with a light smile, he disappeared.

Originally, Gu Xinning was eliminated and Ye Junyan had woken up. For the court, it was two great joys, but now the faces of civil and military officials are not happy at all, and something happened that makes them even more headache and sad. up.

Because at this time the urgent report that the frontier defenders were forced to retreat by the southern border army had already been sent to the imperial court, and everyone was anxiously waiting for Ye Junyan's decision, but Ye Junyan was immersed in the infinite longing for Gu Xinning at this time, Completely indifferent to frontier urgent reports.This time, the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty were in a hurry.

In the Qinzheng Hall, Ye Junyan, who had recovered, was standing in a daze in front of the empty iron cage. Du Wangshan resolutely broke into the Qinzheng Hall and demanded to meet Ye Junyan despite the guards' obstruction.

Du Wangshan entered the hall and saw Ye Junyan staring at the iron cage in a daze, he couldn't help but frowned and bowed and said, "My subject, Du Wangshan, sees the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

Ye Junyan seemed unaware of Du Wangshan's arrival, still silently looking at the empty iron cage.

Du Wangshan approached Ye Junyan and bowed again: "I see you, Du Wangshan."

At this time, Ye Junyan seemed to have just come back to his senses, turned his head to look at Du Wangshan, then turned his head and said, "Du Wangshan! You made the sentence to kill Gu Xinning?"

Seeing Ye Junyan asking about this matter, Du Wangshan was stunned for a moment, and then replied without hesitation: "Reporting to the emperor, yes! Gu Xinning used other people's identities to infiltrate the harem, the criminals deceived the emperor, and because of this, he killed Mr. Zhao Zhongran, the emperor Tolerate his crime and not kill Gu Xinning, but Gu Xinning poisoned the emperor with revenge, and killing Gu Xinning was the result of the court's public discussion."

Ye Junyan turned around and looked at Du Wangshan, sighed and said: "Du Wangshan, you fool, you are being taken advantage of without knowing it, I trust you, rely on you, I didn't expect you to be manipulated by others in the end, and make love to me." right."

Du Wangshan couldn't help being stunned when he heard this, and said, "What does the emperor mean?"

Ye Junyan said coldly: "Gu Xinning is locked in a cage, how to poison me? No one knows Gu Xinning better than me. If Gu Xinning wants to poison anyone, that person will never survive."

Du Wangshan trembled in his heart and said, "Could it be the Empress Dowager and Concubine Yun?"

Ye Junyan said word by word: "Of course, Ran Hai is also indispensable!"
