Chapter 126 Desire for profit, Wen Shichu 18
The things the queen did cannot stand up to scrutiny. It's not that her methods were clumsy, but too many of them were slightly related to her. One or two times can be said to be coincidences, but every time a concubine had a miscarriage, it was related to the queen, so it can't be called a coincidence.
What's more, the emperor was ruthless this time and sent out Xia Qie, the leader of the Sticking Rod Department.
Xia Jian had been idle for a long time. He finally got the emperor's order and vowed to turn the palace upside down for the emperor.
When a wild goose passes by, it leaves traces behind; when a wind blows by, it leaves sounds behind.
As the leader of the Sticking Rod Department, there is nothing that Xia Jian does not want to investigate. In the original drama, if Xiao Yunzi had not taken advantage of Xia Jian's urgent need to act without moral integrity, Zhen Huan would definitely not have escaped Xia Jian's search.
Xia Jian worked day and night, and in just two or three days, he had found out everything the queen had done over the years, including how she had caused the emperor to lose many children in the palace, and how she had also targeted the women in the backyard.
After the emperor ascended the throne, he took action less often. It was not because the empress was heartless and turned away from evil to good, but because there were fewer pregnant concubines.
Regardless of whether it was in the prince's mansion or in the imperial palace, every time the empress took action, there would be more or less traces of the empress dowager cleaning up the mess and preventing the emperor from noticing.
The emperor looked at the confessions one by one. His hands holding the testimonies trembled, his lips moved, and he was extremely angry, but he could not utter a word.
Ok, good, good!
What a good queen she is to him, what a good mother she is to him!
I wonder if the Empress Dowager would still protect the Fourteenth Prince like this if he had a wife like the Queen.
Xia Qian, who was kneeling below, looked up at the emperor, worried. There was another piece of news, and he wondered if the emperor could bear it after hearing it.
"Say!"
The emperor uttered the word "say" with great difficulty. He felt that these testimonies were enough to kill the queen a thousand times, but Xia Qie had not finished speaking yet. He wanted to hear what kind of evil things the queen could have done behind her back!
"The death of Queen Chunyuan..., Your Majesty!" Before Xia Qie could finish his words, the emperor vomited blood and fainted on the dragon throne.
The emperor only heard the first two words "Chun Yuan" before his eyes went dark, he was burning with anger, and a mouthful of blood gushed out. He never expected that Yixiu, this vicious woman, would dare to attack Rouze. Rouze was her own sister, but she would not let her go.
Xia Qian had no choice but to ask Su Peisheng, who was guarding outside the palace, to quickly call the imperial physician.
Su Peisheng caught a glimpse of the emperor's limp figure on the dragon throne and the blood on his clothes. He ignored the palace rule that prohibits running and immediately ran to the Imperial Hospital in a hurry.
Xia Jian stayed with the emperor. He was a secret guard and rarely showed up in front of others.
Su Peisheng's figure was getting farther and farther away from the Yangxin Palace, gradually turning into a black dot and disappearing from Xia Qi's sight.
In Xia Jian's opinion, Su Peisheng's anxiety just now was not fake, and he was sincere to the emperor. Unfortunately, thinking of what he had found out about the affair between Su Peisheng and Jin Xi, who was by Zhen Da Ying's side, Xia Jian couldn't help but sigh that he had taken the wrong path.
People like them all depend on the emperor for their lives. They can have their own little thoughts, but the most important thing they must not forget is that they must always be loyal to the emperor.
Obviously, Su Peisheng's little thoughts had already surpassed his loyalty to the emperor. He often betrayed the emperor's whereabouts and Zhen Da Ying to facilitate Zhen Da Ying's various "chance encounters" with the emperor.
……
The Hall of Mental Cultivation was not far from the Imperial Medical Bureau, and Su Peisheng arrived there in a short while.
He panted and pulled a young eunuch, asking the eunuch to notify all the imperial doctors on duty to go to the Yangxin Palace to see the emperor. Su Peisheng leaned against the wall and breathed slowly.
