Chapter 597
"But...the man couldn't be rescued. When the man was caught, he had... had no breath."

Hearing this, Concubine Xian's calm expression finally changed. King Cheng... is dead?Still like this day?In plain sight?
Concubine Xian's face couldn't get any better.

Suddenly, she turned her head and glared at Ye Xinyi, who was beside her, but the latter looked at her innocently and anxiously... Concubine Xian's sulking was immediately stuck in her chest.

The maid in charge said tremblingly, "And..."

and also?Concubine Xian's eyes sharpened, and the kindness on her face was distorted for a moment.

The maid in charge's face froze, but she had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue, "At that time, the court officials of the fourth rank and above were all present, and Mr. Song, the servant of the Ministry of punishment, happened to be in front of him, so he inspected the body of His Highness King Cheng and said... ...It is said that His Royal Highness Cheng Wang did not drown naturally, but... was murdered..."

Concubine Xian's eyes narrowed immediately.

"Right now...His Royal Highness King Ning has sent heavy troops to guard the officials. This team of forbidden troops is ordered by His Royal Highness Ning to temporarily guard the officials and their families."

"Where is His Royal Highness Prince Ning?" Concubine Xian asked.

"The matter is of great importance. The elders of the pavilion, the Ministry of Justice and the adults of Dali Temple have been taken by His Royal Highness King Ning to the Qianqing Palace."

Concubine Xian's expression had settled down at this time, she turned her head and glanced at Ye Xinyi, seeing that she was still in a state of panic and unable to get on the stage, Concubine Xian squinted her eyes, but after all she didn't say anything, and turned around again When he turned his head, there was already a smile on his face, and he said to the officials and family members who were a little uneasy because of the sudden arrival of the forbidden army, "Don't worry, everyone, something happened in the front hall, but at the moment Ning His Royal Highness is already dealing with it, and the situation will subside in a while. This team of imperial guards was sent by His Royal Highness Ning to protect us all, so, you sit here with peace of mind, and I will go and have a look."

As she spoke, she pulled back her skirt and stood up, turned around with a smile, led her maid in charge, and walked away quickly surrounded by several servants and maids.

The rest of the people looked at each other in blank dismay, with different thoughts, but they took a look at the imperial guards who were staring at them, but they dared not say anything, and they all kept silent.

However, Ye Xinyi glanced at the direction in which Concubine Xian left, and a faint light flashed through his eyes very quickly.

However, when Concubine Xian turned around, the smile on her face faded, and her demeanor suddenly changed, becoming cold and sharp, "Go! Send over the medicine we prepared for His Majesty."

"Your Majesty?" The accompanying maid suddenly raised her eyes in shock.

Concubine Xian's eyes seemed to be frozen, extremely cold, not to mention flickering, "If His Majesty finds out about the death of King Cheng, he will be greatly mourned. His Majesty's body can no longer bear such great joy and sorrow." Yes, you have to be prepared.”

The maid in charge heard her eyes sparkle, but because she has been with the concubine Xian for a long time, she has been able to discern her thoughts from the subtleties, knowing that her mind has been made up, even though her heart was jumping, she did not dare to say more, she lowered her eyes to respond After saying "yes", he backed away silently on the way to Qianqing Palace.

After a while, they chased after him again, and when they arrived, Concubine Xian and the others happened to arrive at Qianqing Palace.

Concubine Xian glanced lightly at the empty-handed maid, who nodded slightly, then glanced somewhere.

Concubine Xian looked out from the hollow carved screen, through the specially made curtain, she could just see the main hall of Qianqing Palace, but the people in the hall could not see her.

Taking advantage of the favorable location, she arrived just in time. King Ning and his courtiers had just arrived. Gan and Emperor Wei sat on the dragon chair, looking weak, being served by a young eunuch with a cup of ginseng tea.

Concubine Xian's Danfeng eyes flashed slightly, and she glanced at the maid in charge beside her, who nodded imperceptibly, Concubine Xian's mouth curled up, and she began to watch the play calmly.

"Brother Emperor... Brother Emperor is seriously ill, he should have rested, and I didn't want to disturb Brother Emperor's rest, but the matter is really important, and I dare not call the shots, and all the ministers insisted again and again, so I had no choice but to let the emperor rest." They brought them together, come to ask Brother Huang to show you."

Qian Hedi finished drinking the ginseng tea, raised his eyes lazily, and asked in a hoarse voice, "What's the matter?"

King Ning and the other ministers were all hesitant when they arrived at this moment, especially some of them thought that they should not be able to see the holy face so easily, but unexpectedly, they saw it.

And... sneaking a glance at Emperor Qianhe, who was sitting in the seat, he saw that he was so skinny, with sunken eyes, and a pale face, that he really looked seriously ill. Could it be... it was all a misunderstanding?
None of the ministers was willing to speak for a moment, King Ning looked around, and finally had to frown, and said bravely, "At the palace banquet today, an accident happened..."

After a pause, he glanced up.

Emperor Qianhe propped his head on one hand, and didn't know if he was listening or not, but there was no movement anyway.

King Ning lowered his eyes and hesitated for a moment.

"Why is His Royal Highness Ning so hesitant? Can such a major event be concealed? His Majesty will know sooner or later. Besides, His Majesty should be in charge of such a big matter. His Royal Highness Ning should be very clear. , but so hesitant to procrastinate, what is the plot?"

A cold and deep voice suddenly sounded, and Emperor Qianhe, who was already drowsy, seemed to suddenly regain his energy. With a jolt, he opened his heavy eyelids, and his gaze wandered blankly on the faces of His Highness for a moment. Then he said, "Shen Yue?"

Concubine Xian didn't expect him to follow, and she dared to speak at this moment... her brows frowned.

King Ning Zhu Zheng and others in the hall also did not expect him to speak. Logically, there is no place for him to speak in this hall, but he is Jin Yiwei, and he is also the confidant of the one above, and what he said is so tricky Things... The others looked at each other, and seeing that King Ning didn't intend to speak, they all became that gourd with its beak sawn off, and no one wanted to be that early bird.

As a result, Shen Yue heard the call of Emperor Qianhe, and took a step forward. He was dressed in a snow-white and silver-embroidered flying fish suit without wind, which made him even more majestic in his striding steps.

He clasped his fists and bowed to Emperor Qianhe, "Returning to Your Majesty, it is the minister. The minister has completed his errands a few days ago and returned to the capital, but he has not been able to see the holy face. Today, it is Sure enough, I did see it, but the timing was unlucky, Your Majesty... Just now at the banquet, His Highness Cheng Wang accidentally fell into the water for some reason, and when he was rescued, he was already..." Speaking of this, Shen Yue finally said Unable to bear it, he hid the words, "Please give your majesty condolences!"

There was a sudden silence all around, and the huge hall was completely silent.

He could only hear Qianhedi's heavy breathing, and he didn't know if he was seriously ill, and his reaction was also slowed down. After a long while, he tried to stand up while leaning on the chair, but his hands slipped. Then he fell down again, and the little servant at the side quickly stepped forward to support him, he waved his hand, and did not insist on getting up again.
