After losing my memory, I became a soft double for the general

Chapter 158
Jiang Ling was about to walk quickly to Luoliyuan, but when he heard a series of dull bells ringing, he stopped suddenly, and said to Mu Feng behind him: "The bell is in the direction of the imperial city?"

Mu Feng nodded and said: "Exactly, it seems to be the death knell."

When the heavy bells rang, Jiang Ling's face was darkened, and his face was extremely gloomy. The death knell was only ringing when someone in the palace died. The last time the death knell was ringing was the death of the Empress Dowager five years ago.

Now that the death knell is ringing, could it be that something happened to His Majesty?It is clear that Li Langzhong said that he was only in a temporary coma and that his life was not in danger.

Jiang Ling ran out in two steps at a time. He rode his horse and hurried into the palace. At the gate of the palace, he met Zhang's sedan chair. Zhang Song got off the sedan chair, waved to Jiang Ling and said, "Major general, please stay. Wait for me to enter the palace together."

"The death knell rang in the middle of the night, and I don't know who it is?" Zhang Song was in a panic. Although he had guessed in his heart, he still didn't want to believe it. Your Majesty is just in a coma, not fatal.

He didn't believe the fact that His Majesty had passed away, and seeing Jiang Ling's cold eyes and gloomy face, he just nodded and said, "Go to the palace."

Now that the matter has come to an end, we can only check to see if there are any clues left at the scene. His Majesty passed away suddenly, he must have been murdered by someone, and perhaps some clues can be found by entering the palace earlier.

……

After Murong Jin heard the news, she went to Ruixin Palace angrily. Lin Sujin was putting on makeup in front of the mirror. She changed into a plain dress and was about to go to the emperor's bedroom. Murong Jin stepped forward furiously and slapped Lin Sujin on the face. Going up, he roared angrily: "You bitch, you dare to attack the father."

The maid serving in the room knelt on the ground, and Hui'er knelt beside her and begged for mercy: "Please calm down, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

Lin Sujin covered half of her red and swollen face, and laughed angrily, the gorgeous skirt embellished with countless pearls and gemstones trembled slightly, "Does Your Highness want to kill my concubine?"

She laughed a few times, looked at Murong Jin coldly, and said, "I'm all for His Highness, and I'm all for helping His Highness ascend to the throne, and in exchange for this kind of treatment from His Highness? Does Your Highness know that the general has brought someone into the palace to check?" He has already suspected His Majesty's illness. This concubine is doing this to help His Majesty!"

"What did you say!" Murong Jin hadn't recovered from the grief of losing his father, but when he heard that Jiang Ling was planning to deal with him in secret, he clenched his fists tightly and hammered on the table in front of the mirror. He also seemed to be deeply shocked, slumped on the top chair, his eyes were dull and empty.

He never thought of killing his father, but his father died because of him. He wholeheartedly wanted Jiang Ling's support, but Jiang Ling betrayed him.

"Your Highness knows that the general has gone to the Northwest Palace secretly. I heard that he was ordered by the imperial concubine to send someone to bring Murong Tan back." Lin Sujin's words undoubtedly pierced his heart.

After a long time, Murong Jin came back to his senses, and murmured: "Murong Tan, the thing my father dislikes the most is Murong Tan."

Murong Tan was the third prince. After Emperor Chengxuan was drunk, he favored an ugly court lady. He never thought that the court lady would be pregnant. Not long after, she gave birth to the prince, and the prince was Murong Tan.

Because his biological mother came from a humble background, he didn't please his father. Three years later, the court lady died of illness, and Murong Tan was raised in Concubine Shu's palace since birth.

Concubine Shu has her own child, so she sees Murong Tan not pleasing to the eye everywhere. He is often beaten and punished to kneel down. He identified Murong Tan as the murderer of her son, beat him until his legs became disabled, and he could only sit in a wheelchair ever since.

Later Concubine Shu went mad, and Murong Tan was considered ominous by the emperor, so he was sent to the Northwest Palace, leaving only one eunuch and maid to serve him, and they ignored him for many years, and never mentioned letting him return to the palace.

Murong Tan is the third son of today, and he is three years younger than Murong Jin. He just turned 25 this year.

"A cripple, what can he do in the palace?" Murong Jin's words were full of disdain and sarcasm.

Lin Sujin sneered and said: "Your Highness, don't forget, if the dead son of Chengchun Palace chooses to support Murong Tan to ascend to the throne, Murong Tan is the prince, and he is also qualified to succeed, and there are still half of them in the court." The ministers support the imperial concubine's governance."

Murong Jin was furious when she heard this, and angrily threw all the gold, silver, jade and precious jewelry before the case to the ground, "What qualifications does the son of a lowly maidservant have to fight for the throne alone?"

He hated Jiang Ling even more for betraying him. From the very beginning, Jiang Ling was on the imperial concubine's side, but he hated himself for believing him so easily and falling for his tricks.

It was only then that he realized that there are very few people who can really help him, so he hurried forward and hugged Lin Sujin in his arms, "It was Gu who was too impulsive, and Gu Qi fainted, so he hit Qing Qing , Qingqing knows that Gu didn't do it on purpose, right?"

The burning pain on her face reminded Lin Sujin once again that she was just seeking skin from a tiger. Murongjin just treated her as a plaything, and what she said was not credible at all, and she didn't count. She could only get what she wanted by her own means.

Leaning weakly and bonelessly in Murong Jin's arms, she nodded obediently, "I naturally trust Your Highness. But I will enter the East Palace."

Murong Jin's expression changed immediately, she pushed her away, and held her shoulders tightly, "Now is not the best time, Qingqing waits patiently, and when Gu sits in that position, she will definitely keep her promise. "

Waiting again, she has waited too long.

She is no longer safe in the palace, and Jiang Ling will soon suspect her. If the imperial concubine finds out about her, she will die without a place to bury her.

"The matter between the concubine's body and His Highness is not a secret within the palace walls. His Majesty's death is inseparable from His Highness. The general and imperial concubine will soon find out His Highness's head. At that time, it will not be said that it is the throne." Well, murdering the emperor and attempting to rebel are all capital crimes, and His Highness will end up not much better than that King Qi! The death of the five emperor brothers is inseparable from His Highness, and the imperial concubine will forgive him at that time. Have you been to Your Highness?"

"You bitch! How dare you threaten Gu!" He raised his hand, Lin Sujin took the initiative to meet the other half of his face, but Murong Jin's trembling hand did not fall down.

"Then Your Highness agrees?" Lin Sujin laughed loudly, tears rolling down her cheeks.

"Get ready, Gu will arrange for you to leave the palace tonight." The raised hand was still lowered.

When the ministers knelt in the emperor's bedroom to mourn and cry bitterly, Huier, a maid of Ruixin Palace, entered the bedroom to look for His Highness the Crown Prince.

"Reporting to His Majesty the Crown Prince, Your Majesty's love for His Majesty is as deep as the ocean, and she wished to follow His Majesty. She has already cut her hair, and she is going to become a monk at Wan'an Temple. She will accompany the ancient Buddha with the green lamp. Your Majesty said please help me."

Murong Jin waved his hand and said, "It's really rare for Empress Jin to have deep affection for Emperor Father, so let her go!"

Lin Sujin was sent out of the palace overnight and went to Wan'an Temple. Not long after, she secretly announced that she had died of illness and entered the East Palace, where she became the Prince Liangdi.
