The useless daughter-in-law is going to turn the world upside down

Chapter 818 The tenth prince is also poisoned

There are distant and solemn bells coming from the direction of the palace, and this bell rings not only during the New Year, but also when there are major celebrations.

Except for these two situations, the master in the palace died.

Those who are qualified to ring the death knell are the Supreme Emperor, Empress Dowager, Emperor, Empress, Prince, and Princess Concubine.

According to different status, the number of death knells is different.

There is no Supreme Emperor, Empress Dowager, Empress, or Crown Princess in Dongming.

The crown prince is here, without counting the number of death knells, it is obvious that the emperor has passed away.

Dongming Ziyu and the prince looked at each other, then stood up suddenly, walked out.

Dongming Ziyu called to the crown prince, "Before entering the palace, make arrangements to prevent any changes!"

The prince is still a little tender, and now he remembered that when he saw his father, his spirit was still good, and the imperial doctor also concluded that the emperor would not be in danger of life in a short time.He died suddenly, there must be something hidden.

The prince nodded gratefully, "Thank you, big emperor brother!"

Dongming Ziyu said coldly: "This king will help you, I guess Xiaoxiao's generation will not be able to make any trouble."

"En!" The prince felt that his heart was much more stable.

As the prince walked out, he ordered the people around him to blockade the entire capital, and dispatched people from the outskirts of the capital to surround the capital and be on standby at any time.In addition, the people in the capital patrol battalion were ordered to pay attention to the movements of the capital, and if there were any changes, they would be shot and killed.

Dongming Ziyu ordered his men to ambush around the palace with bombs, and if any rebels approached, they would be sent to the west on the spot.

Shangguan Ruoli also heard the sound of the death knell, and ordered someone to bring the body armor to Dongming Ziyu, and let him put on the body armor and enter the palace. It is impossible to bring weapons into the palace at this time.

Dongming Ziyu changed into body armor and court clothes, and then redeployed the defenses of Prince Xuan's Mansion before entering the palace with a pair of personal guards.

Although Shangguan Ruoli didn't enter the palace right away, he ordered people to find out the white silk, white lanterns, and plain clothes. He only waited for the definite news from the palace, and then hung the palace in white.

The Ministry of Rites will prepare mourning clothes, and you can enter the palace in plain clothes.

The news from the palace soon came back. The emperor was indeed dead, but he was poisoned. He was poisoned at least three times, and he was poisoned today.

Some people directly pointed out that it was the prince who did it, saying that the prince could not ascend the throne until the facts were found out.

The whole city is under martial law, and there are indeed other princes' forces who have made moves, but it is obviously not premeditated, it is a temporary intention.

If it wasn't premeditated, there wouldn't be a large-scale mutiny or ambush, all of which were easily suppressed by Dongming Ziyu and the prince's people.

It can be seen that the death of the emperor was an accident to people inside and outside the palace, and no one was prepared for it.What we are looking at now is the emergency response capability and power strength.

With Dongming Ziyu's assistance, the prince naturally took control of the situation steadily.

The cause of the emperor's death had to be investigated, and the funeral had to be done. The prince ascended the throne before his death, sat on the throne, and became the new emperor of Dongming.

Shangguan Ruoli brought Ling Yao into the palace to watch the funeral. She is the eldest daughter-in-law of the emperor, and she has to support many things. After a day, her back is sore and tired.

Joss candles and paper money were smoky, making Shangguan Ruoli dizzy.Fortunately, she is now invulnerable to all kinds of poisons, but she is not afraid of the poison in the incense candle.

On the carriage back home, Dongming Ziyu rubbed Shangguan Ruoli's waist with distress, "Take your body with you, don't be too tired, just tell the people below to do it."

Shangguan Ruoli leaned on his body and nodded lazily, "Well, I didn't do anything, it's just this kind of occasion, it's messy and annoying."

Although Shangguan Ruoli didn't have to do anything, supporting him for a day was exhausting.

"It's a pity, go back and rest well, you are pregnant, you don't have to come so early tomorrow." Dongming Ziyu's expression was the same as usual, but Shangguan Ruoli, who was familiar with him, could still see some sadness in his eyes .

After all, he was his own father, and it was always uncomfortable to die, not to mention that he was not at the end of his life.

Shangguan Ruoli asked, "Has the murderer been found?"

A cold light flashed in Dongming Ziyu's eyes, "No, the people who came close to my father in the past two days have all been restrained, and they are tortured, and they have not brought out anything related to poisoning the emperor, but there are some clues about the poisoning of the emperor. .”

Shangguan Ruoli asked lazily: "It must be someone from the prince, right?"

Dongming Ziyu said coldly: "A eunuch was found, and when he was arrested, he had already hanged himself to death. The eunuch was in charge of the kitchen purchases, and usually had many contacts in and out of the palace, so it was difficult to investigate for a while."

"Hehe," Shangguan Ruoli laughed dryly, "There is no rush for this kind of attempted voodoo now, the important thing is to poison the emperor's murderer."

Dongming Ziyu said lightly: "This king also thinks so."

Before the carriage arrived at Prince Xuan's Mansion, the sound of horseshoes sounded hurriedly.

In just a few breaths, he came to the front, and the eunuch in the palace was riding the horse. He knelt on the ground after dismounting, and reported: "His Royal Highness Xuan, the fourteenth prince was also poisoned, and the imperial doctor concluded that it was the same poison as the emperor." .”

Dongming Ziyu narrowed his eyes, "Understood, how are you doing?"

The eunuch replied: "The time of poisoning is the same as that of the emperor, but the poisoning is milder, because he is in better health than the emperor, and his life is not in danger."

"Take control of everyone who has been in contact with the Tenth Prince." Dongming Ziyu finished his orders and continued to return to the mansion.

Shangguan Ruoli asked: "Aren't you going back to the palace to deal with it?"

Dongming Ziyu said disapprovingly: "I will send you back home first, nothing is more important than you and the child."

Shangguan Ruoli smiled lightly, rewarded him with a light kiss, and analyzed: "Did the person who poisoned poison the emperor through the Fourteenth Prince?"

Dongming Ziyu said: "It's possible, I'll know after the trial."

Shangguan Ruoli said indifferently: "I'm afraid it's not easy to check, the fourteenth prince can't speak, and there are so many people serving him, he can't remember what did to him at all, and he doesn't know whether it's good or bad."

Dongming Ziyu said: "Check it out, as long as it is done, it will leave traces."

The emperor's father, this revenge for killing his father is to be avenged.

Dongming Ziyu sent Shangguan Ruoli back to Qinseju, and then returned to the palace.

The crown prince is interrogating Lin Guiren, Lin Guiren is crying heartbreakingly, "Prince, save the fourteenth prince! The fourteenth prince must be fine, he is still so young!"

The prince said: "Gu has already been treated by the imperial doctor, and he has no fear of his life."

Seeing Dongming Ziyu coming in, Guiren Lin hurriedly knelt and crawled to his feet and kowtowed, "His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness, save the Fourteenth Prince, he is also a victim!"

Dongming Ziyu sat under the crown prince's hands, and asked in a deep voice, "Who is usually serving the fourteenth prince?"

Lin Guiren obviously believed in Dongming Ziyu, and hurriedly talked about the servants who served the tenth prince.

Dongming Ziyu asked: "Who do you think will poison the Fourteenth Prince?"
