Chapter 9 The disaster of extinction
Gu Shuo finally knew what their plan was. He couldn't help regretting that he hadn't taken precautions earlier. He always thought that the emperor's father-son relationship with the prince and the power of the queen's family would never shake the foundation of the prince. He even wanted to If he can escape the crime this time, he will immediately disarm and return to the farmland to devote himself to the mountains and rivers with Fu Ziyu.

In his eyes, there seems to be a stretch of green hills, where there are fragrant flowers and plants in all seasons, where there are small bridges and flowing water, and where Fu Ziyu who came with the child is there.

"Ayu, I'm sorry, I don't even have time to say goodbye." He smiled bitterly, and blood slowly flowed from the corner of his mouth, more and more.

"Come on, hurry up, stop him, he can't die yet, how can he die before confessing!" There was chaos in the prison.

In the palace, the emperor lost his temper in front of the kneeling empress, but unexpectedly received an urgent report: "Your majesty, it's not good. General Gu committed suicide in prison."

"What, Gu Shuo is dead, have you recruited?"

The man gave the queen a submissive look: "No, General Gu died before he had time to confess."

The empress cried out in grief: "Your Majesty, I was wronged, Gu Shuo died so strangely, Your Majesty, please investigate the truth carefully, and don't let Sheng'er suffer from unexplained injustices, Cheng'er has been so kind and weak since childhood, How could it be possible to do such a rebellious thing?"

When the emperor heard that Gu Shuo had died for no reason, he couldn't help feeling flustered, but everything was on the line and had to be done. He couldn't save anything. He was about to make an order when he heard a commotion outside.

"Who is making noise, dragged out and killed." The emperor in a bad mood just wanted to curse.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not good. The Crown Prince vomited blood." A loud cry came from outside, and it seemed that the people outside were desperate and ignored it. "Help, Your Majesty, the Crown Prince vomited blood and fainted."

"Cheng'er, Sheng'er." The queen staggered up and pulled the emperor's sleeve, regardless of her appearance, "Your Majesty, please, let the concubine go and see Sheng'er."

The emperor couldn't bear to hear the prince vomit blood. After all, he was his first child, so he had feelings, so he helped the queen up helplessly, "Let's go, I will go with you to have a look. Come, Imperial Physician Xuan Xu."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty's grace." The Empress didn't bother to kneel down to thank her, she made a big salute and rushed out. As expected, the person who was pulled outside was Gao Ning, the Prince's personal supervisor, who was being twisted by several senior supervisors Arms folded waiting to be dealt with.

"Your Majesty, Gao Ning has served the crown prince since he was a child, and this time he is also eager to protect the lord, please let the emperor let him go." The queen wanted to save Gao Ning's life with gratitude.

"Let it go, and lead the way immediately." The emperor didn't want to offend the queen too much, after all, her mother clan was still an existence that should not be underestimated.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The Empress quickly signaled, Gao Ning broke free from the restraints of the eunuchs, kneeled and kowtowed three times, and then hurriedly led the Emperor and Empress to the Prince's residence.

Although he was imprisoned in the palace, he was still the undefeated prince after all, and no one dared to neglect him. The food and other aspects were the same as usual, but his movement was inconvenient, but for some reason, he just drank a bowl of tea soup today, and passed the time. After a while, he vomited blood, and it was still thick black blood.

When Xu Changrong rushed to the palace, he saw the prince Li Sheng lying on the bed with a pale face, unconscious. He secretly thought it was bad, thinking of the golden pill used by the imperial concubine to the emperor, he quickly took a silver needle to test the prince's blood.

However, this is a completely different toxin from the emperor's poison. It is obviously a chronic poison, and it is latent deep, because he usually checks the pulse of the prince, and there is no sign of poisoning at all. This time the toxin is coming. The turbulence came out, could it be caused by some kind of medicine?

Seeing the prince's appearance, the queen couldn't help crying and fell beside him, "Cheng'er, wake up, my mother came to see you later, the queen mother knows that you must have been wronged, and people want your life."

Every sentence in the queen's words pointed to something, and the emperor was also moved when he heard it, "Physician Xu, what's the situation with the crown prince?"

"Back to the emperor, the prince has been given chronic poison for a long time."

"What, slow poison, check it, let me check it quickly." The emperor couldn't help but shouted angrily, the dignified prince of the East Palace was poisoned unknowingly, is there a safe place in this palace?

"Where is the food that the prince used today, bring it all up." Xu Changrong hurriedly asked the waitress.

The palace maid had already collapsed to the ground in fright, she was trembling all the time while speaking, "His Royal Highness has been coughing continuously today, plus he is in a bad mood, so he didn't have any meal, but just drank a bowl of licorice tea to relieve cough."

"Glycyrrhiza tea, bring up the teacup immediately." Xu Changrong hoped that the teacup was still there with a little luck.

Fortunately, the crown prince started to vomit blood just a few moments after drinking the tea. The maid was so frightened that she didn't even bother to remove the cup. Doctor Xu immediately took the cup to test it, but it was not poisonous. He couldn't help but think deeply.

There is no way to detoxify immediately, Doctor Xu can only give the prince an injection to temporarily suppress the toxin, and then feed a elixir made of Tianshan snow lotus, at least temporarily relieved, he began to put the poisonous blood into the vessel again, all kinds of Test and analyze.

Both the emperor and the empress stared at him wanting an answer, but the prince woke up leisurely, and the empress hurried over to hold his hand, "Cheng'er, you woke up, you finally woke up, tell the empress who killed you, I will cut him into pieces to relieve your hatred."

"How is Gu Shuo? Mother, son is fine, please save Gu Shuo, he is innocent, he is so loyal, how could he betray the emperor, please ask the emperor for mercy, let him go." Li Sheng said weakly, but some blood flowed out of his mouth again.

The queen couldn't bear to look at his face, but the emperor became angry: "Cheng'er, you are still pleading for Gu Shuo, news has come from the sky prison, it is Gu Shuo who insisted on going his own way to instigate you to rebel, and now his plot was exposed and he committed suicide in fear of crime." , I want to kill him all over the house and call the world, so that all those who intend to rebel can see what the end will be if they go against me."

"What." With a pop, the prince spat out blood.

The queen screamed in fright: "Doctor Xu, doctor Xu!"

When Xu Changrong heard the emperor's words, he was immediately struck by thunder. Gu Shuo was dead, and all he could think about was this sentence. For a while, he didn't even hear the queen's cry. It was Gao Ning's loud cry that shocked him back to his senses.

He hurried over and stuck the silver needle in the prince's veins, the prince struggled to get up, Xu Changrong held him down and said, "Prince, if you keep vomiting blood like this, I can't save you, for the sake of Gu Fu, you have to persevere."

Li Sheng knew that his heart and lungs had been damaged not long ago: "Changrong, if it's a brother, give me a medicine to improve strength."

Xu Changrong took the prince's pulse and knew that everything was a foregone conclusion. With tears in his eyes, he secretly stuffed a Shiquan Dabu pill into the prince's mouth. After taking the medicine, the prince's spirit was much better.
