My old husband who can read minds

Immediately after the edict was passed, Emperor Qianyuan spoke earnestly and sincerely to the five ministers, and then waved everyone away.

Although today's matter is a secret of the imperial court, and Emperor Qianyuan has repeatedly warned that it should not be spread to outsiders, it still cannot escape the eyes and ears of interested people.

After Qin Yan and others left the imperial study, they did not dare to stay in the palace any longer, let alone discuss in private. After a hasty farewell, they left the palace and returned home.

From that day on, waves of people seeking information came to the houses of the five cabinet ministers, either openly or covertly, but all returned without success.

When the officials heard that the imperial edict had been issued, they temporarily stopped arguing in the court. However, the eyes they looked at the princes and princes became more and more profound. Especially, King Wei, who had been rumored to be the crown prince, received the most attention. .

Everyone in the court was speculating on which prince His Majesty would finally choose to inherit the throne.

In Marquis Wenxin's mansion, Qin He and Shen Yuan naturally learned about this matter from their father Qin Yan.

Shen Yuan was very puzzled. Emperor Qianyuan had clearly protected King Wei very well before, so why did he want to let him go to the volcano now and make him a target of public criticism.

Isn't this contrary to the emperor's previous thoughts and actions?

And this matter is also quite different from the description in the original work.

In the original work, Emperor Qianyuan suddenly fell ill at about this time and fell into a coma. He did not even have time to establish a posthumous edict. As a result, the position of Prince of the East Palace was lost, and the entire court suddenly fell into chaos.

Several older princes and princes started a bloody fight in order to compete for the position of crown prince.

In the end, the eldest prince, King Qi, died in a palace coup due to the crime of treason; the third prince, King Wei, and the fifth prince, King Chu, were killed by King Qi when King Qin resisted, and died tragically in the palace.

The fourth prince, King Yan, escaped the palace coup. However, not long after King Shen successfully seized power, King Yan suddenly died suddenly in his palace one day.

At this point, all the adult princes who were able to compete for the heir apparent died, leaving only a few young princes who were lucky enough to survive.

However, those who were imprisoned and imprisoned were expelled from the capital, and the end was not much better.

However, King Shen could not sit on the imperial throne for long. Half a year after he ascended the throne, Emperor Qianyuan, the Supreme Emperor, drove to the west of Hexi.

More than a year later, "Emperor Longfeng" who was still sitting on the throne was pulled down by Song Yunjin and Qin He together, and died in an "accident" during a spring hunting.

In the end, the sixth prince reaped the benefits and became the final winner.

This is the trajectory that happened in the previous life (in the original work), so I don’t know how things will develop in this life.

At present, one thing is the same as in the previous life, and it is inevitable.

That is that Emperor Qianyuan did suffer from a "serious illness", and the medicine and stone were ineffective, and he did not have much time left.

But this time the imperial edict has been established, and I don't know whether I can avoid the tragic palace incident in the previous life.

"Sir, should we remind your Majesty of the cause of his illness?"

Shen Yuan hesitated, completely unsure of his decision.

It is explained in the original work that the empress and the Song family were the culprits behind Emperor Qianyuan's sudden illness and deep coma. If the emperor could be reminded in a reasonable way, could a series of subsequent tragedies be avoided?

"Madam, do you think your Majesty will not notice it? There are many strange things about the death of Lord Qing. Your Majesty has secretly ordered Commander Wu to keep an eye on the Queen and the Song family. I'm afraid that every move they make now will not be able to escape His Majesty's eyes and ears."

Qin He unknowingly revealed a big secret.

Shen Yuan was a little confused, "Then the news that His Majesty is seriously ill and his time is running out is true, or is it deliberately spread by someone to disturb people's hearts?"

"Your Majesty's dragon body is indeed worrying. Although it is claimed to be a sudden serious illness, you and I both know that your Majesty is actually suffering from a strange poison. No one can cure it, and we don't know how long it will last." He shook his head solemnly and sighed helplessly.

"When Your Majesty discovered that his dragon body was ill, it was already too late."

"There are so many skilled doctors in the palace, but they are helpless against the poison on Your Majesty's body?"

Shen Yuan tried hard to recall the description in the original work about the emperor being poisoned and comatose, but he could never remember the relevant details.

The original work does not seem to specify what kind of strange poison the emperor was poisoned by, but only a few words indicate it. At present, it is only known that the poison came from the Northern Territory.

Some of the ancestors of the Song family once served as high-ranking officials in Northern Xinjiang. It would not be difficult for them to obtain the strange poison from the Northern Territory.

As for how the Song family got that strange poison, Shen Yuan's memory is blurred because it was so long ago and the historical trajectory has undergone major changes.

But she vaguely felt that there seemed to be a force in the dark that was erasing some of her memories.

It's probably the laws of heaven in the original world that are causing trouble again.

She could recall some important events and nodes, but she just couldn't remember some key details.

"According to what my father said, His Majesty has made preparations for his funeral."

Qin He frowned and thought, "I don't know the inside story about His Majesty's 'serious illness' in the previous life, and Song Yunjin never revealed how the Queen and the Song family succeeded. After all, it was the death penalty of regicide for the Nine Clan. She As members of the Song family, they will naturally be tight-lipped and will never reveal this fatal information to outsiders."

Although as a reborn person, Qin He had the advantage of many prophets, things he didn't know originally were still unclear even if he had to do it again.

He couldn't just run up to the Queen and Song Xun and ask them face to face how they poisoned the emperor, right?

That's not realistic at all.

Not to mention that Qin He, a foreign minister, could not see the queen at all, but the Song family was now as wary of the Qin family as they were wary of thieves. They wanted to take a detour when they saw it, let alone a "friendly conversation" between the two parties. Opportunity.

What's more, the development of events in this life is very different from that in the previous life. For example, the appearance of concubines such as Qing Guiren, Yan Guiren and Li Guiren who did not exist in the previous life is an unexpected change.

No matter how powerful Shen Yuan and Qin He are, they cannot predict the unknown.

Shen Yuan spread his hands helplessly, "Then we can only do nothing to help. Everything depends on God's will."

Qin He chuckled: "Don't underestimate your majesty. The meaning revealed in my father's words is that your majesty is probably setting up a trap, just waiting for someone to take the initiative to jump in. If I am not wrong, maybe your majesty is exactly what you want." Use the last moments to clear the way for King Wei to ascend the throne."

The emperor has not summoned Xiao Yiwei recently, and Qin He was unable to find out the true holy intention for a while.

But with his understanding of Emperor Qianyuan in two lifetimes, he could vaguely guess the emperor's heart.

"So your Majesty is fishing for law enforcement?"

Shen Yuan suddenly realized that this possibility was very high.

In this way, it can be explained why at the last moment of establishing the throne, Emperor Qianyuan wanted to push King Wei, his precious son, to attract firepower. He wanted to "catch all the unstable factors". (End of chapter)
