Chapter 244
The sky had just darkened, and lanterns of various colors were placed on the white snow, which was indescribably beautiful.
Gu Huaixiu had just paid homage to Empress Concubine De and came down, so she walked around casually. Changchun Garden really hasn't been there much, and I just took a quick look at it in the early years. After all, it was a place where the emperor often came, and it was built after Jiangnan gardens. , but it's not interesting.
Thinking about it, she hasn't been back to Jiangnan for a long time. She grew up in the capital, followed Gu Zhenguan to leave Beijing and then went to Jiangnan. How many years have she been back and forth?I don't even remember.
Seeing the scenery of Jiangnan in front of him now, Gu Huaishu couldn't hold back, and even started to recall the past.
"Second Madam Zhang, where is your maidservant, maybe she is looking for you."
Mrs. Wang Jida suddenly stopped in her tracks and pointed at Gu Huaishu.
Gu Huaixiu was slightly taken aback, she didn't expect Qing Dai to come over at this moment, she said: "It turned out to be the maid who brought here before, maybe it's something important, I'll go there, excuse me."
It wasn't an important matter at all, everyone just nodded and continued to walk down.
As soon as Gu Huaishu turned around, he passed the long stone path above the water, and stopped by the veranda, Qing Dai came over immediately.
The master and servant stood in the dark, not blocking the way of others, and even less people noticed.
The masters were playing, and the maids were all around, but they didn't expect that something happened suddenly, someone passed the news to Qing Dai, and Qing Dai came to look for Gu Huaishu.
"Second Madam Gu just brought someone over and waited for you under the small bridge. I'm afraid something may have happened." Qing Dai paused, and then said, "Second Madam Gu was still serving by the emperor's side before, and the first lady Longkodo came The guard said that he wanted to arrest a person with a Pisces jade pendant on his body, and this servant felt that..."
Pisces Jade Pendant?
Gu Huaixiu thought about Qing Dai's words back and forth, and then he understood.
She pressed her hand, and walked forward as if nothing had happened, but in fact she was holding Qing Dai and led the way by Qing Dai, pretending to meet Sun Lianqiao by chance.
Now Sun Lianqiao's hands in his sleeves were already trembling, and there was a jade pendant hidden in his sleeves. The moment he saw Gu Huaixiu, Sun Lianqiao's six gods had their master again.
"Second Madam Zhang..."
"What happened to sister-in-law?"
Gu Huaishu reached out and held her hand, but his eyes were extremely sharp.
Although they didn't know what happened, the two of them just walked forward as if nothing had happened.
Sun Lianqiao was terrified, so she whispered the matter.
First, Kangxi asked the ministers to discuss matters, and Longkodo instructed her to go up and eavesdrop. Who would have thought that a cat appeared somewhere, right at the place where Kangxi was talking about, and Sun Lianqiao was startled, but there was no sound, but It happened that Sun Lianqiao took such a step back.
It was that step that exposed Sun Lianqiao.
The emperor threw a medicine bowl at him, only opened the corner of the door curtain, and the person was gone.
At this moment, the entire Changchun Garden was full of guards, searching for people everywhere, only saying that Kangxi saw a person with a double fish pendant on his body, and he must be a ghost in it.
Gu Huaishu never expected that such a thrilling event would come out. Looking back, everyone in the garden hadn't noticed it, obviously they hadn't found it here, but the concubine had already vaguely responded.
It must be no trivial matter that Sun Lianqiao eavesdropped. Kangxi's health is getting worse day by day, what can he secretly discuss with the minister?
Thinking about it this way, the secrets hidden inside can be called shocking.
Perhaps Zhang Tingyu was also inside, but the four academicians didn't come out, which was scary.
Gu Huaixiu only said: "With Longkodo here, don't worry for now, there will always be a time when this matter is perfunctory, you just think that you have already gone far, and you can't be implicated."
Because the Fourteenth Lord had already left Beijing in the early years, the other princes were not very useful. Thinking about it carefully, among the sons of Kangxi, the Fourth Lord is the most capable of doing things. Now there is a Longkodo in the inner court. Back then Zhang Tingyu was able to walk in the South Study Room without any worries, and many eunuchs in the palace flattered Zhang Tingyu, one can imagine that the inner court was not so clean.
What's more, it is now in Changchun Garden, not like in the palace.
Fourth Master is also in Changchun Garden now, and nothing can escape his control.
After careful consideration, Gu Huai also let go of most of his sleeves.
Sun Lianqiao's face already had the look of weather and years, and holding that jade pendant felt like holding a hot iron, and she was in pain and distress: "Someone in the Imperial Hospital has seen this jade pendant of mine, if... "
jade pendant...
Gu Huaishu's heart skipped a beat, and suddenly he turned around and shouted: "Qingdai!"
Qing Dai was also startled: "Madam?"
"Where is Li Wei now?!"
Gu Huaishu's whole scalp exploded. Now that Sun Lianqiao knew the news and hid, and took off the jade pendant on her waist, even if someone identified her, she would not be able to find Sun Lianqiao for a while. , but Li Weicai pulled out the doctor of the household department, and today he also came to Changchun Garden to perform affairs, and I'm afraid he hasn't left yet.
How does Qingdai know where Li Weiren is?
Knowing what happened to Sun Lianqiao here, Qingdai also knew what Gu Huaishu was worried about. When Li Wei was a street gangster, he cheated in front of Zhang's mansion in the capital, and even snatched the girl who was holding Qingdai's hand. Later, when Gu Huaishu returned home, he found another topaz double fish pendant that he had made together in his box, and gave it to Sun Lianqiao.But the sapphire double fish pendant at the beginning fell into Li Wei's hands. Even if he met Li Wei in Jiangnan later, the double fish pendant was not returned. Later, he even recognized Li Wei's son. Naturally, the jade pendant was not on his mind either.
Originally, Gu Huaishou treated Li Wei very well. Li Wei never read anyone and wanted to honor his godmother. The jade pendant was almost always carried with him, but sometimes he kept it in his pocket and sometimes he hung it up.
Now that such a terrible thing happened, no one else knew about it, the female relatives watching the lamp here were unconscious, and the ministers in front might not know anything.
What's more, Li Wei is just a small official, a mere servant, Yinzhen may not be able to take care of Li Wei, and Li Wei has nothing to do with this matter, who can inform him?
Gu Huaishou's lips trembled so badly that Qing Dai pinched her, then he calmed down, and said: "Find a hidden place, and call Li Wei for me, if people ask me later, they will say that I feel cold, I went to sit in the side hall... Sister-in-law, don't leave for now, just stay with me at that time."
At this time, the most important thing is time!
I don't care about that much anymore.
Gu Huaishu sent Qing Dai to inform someone to find Li Wei, and then she took Sun Lianqiao away.
Sun Lianqiao was completely at a loss, and didn't know what was going on now.
How could Gu Huaishu explain so much at this time?
She only thought that the emperor was old and dim-sighted, but he saw clearly that it was the Pisces jade pendant, but he didn't say anything about it. If he wanted to arrest someone, Li Wei might be in danger.
Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case, if Li Weizhen wears it, he will definitely not escape!
Anyway, he is someone who usually calls Gu Huaixiu a motherfucker, how could Gu Huaixiu put him in danger?
Few people knew about the jade pendant. Zhang Tingyu must be under the eyes of the emperor now. Time, even rebellion has no confidence!
How can we come back?
Gu Huaishu bit her lip, didn't pay attention, it was broken, and a drop of blood came out. She tasted the fishy smell, and her steps slowed down, and she suddenly turned her head to look at Sun Lianqiao.
But at this time, she didn't speak.
Sun Lianqiao also knew that she was thinking about something, so she didn't dare to disturb her.
Rest your mind first, if Gu Huaixu's method is to be effective, you still have to wait for news from Li Wei.
After all, the guards here are still under the care of Long Kedo, and the fourth master is here again. Qing Dai just went to look for someone, but was seen by Gao Wuyong beside Yinzhen.
Just now some unusual news came from the emperor's dormitory. Yinzhen is also thinking about it here. Knowing that he is probably looking for Sun Lianqiao, he is already thinking about abandoning the pawn to protect the car. Be careful, if you really find out something, not one is unlucky.
Yinzhen has always had a dark heart, and the time is getting ripe, what can't be done?
If it weren't for the large crowd today, and the ministers were still in Changchun Garden, he would be able to do anything.
Just as he was about to go to see Kangxi, Gao Wuyong said, "It's the maid next to Mrs. Zhang Er."
Qingdai?
Yinzhen paused, and saw the maid approaching calmly, as if there was something wrong, so he asked Gao Wuyong to ask quietly.
Qing Dai didn't find Li Wei here, she was in a hurry, she was overjoyed to see Gao Wuyong, she also knew the seriousness of the matter, so she said she wanted to find Li Wei.
Yinzhen is full of brothers here, and because of Long Kedo's relationship, he was able to mobilize the guards at Changchun Garden, and he led Li Wei out of the crowd in a short while.
As soon as Qing Dai met, she asked him where the jade pendant was. Li Wei only frowned, and touched his bosom, and there was indeed a jade pendant.
"When your master called you over, didn't you say anything?"
Yinzhen was also in the dark, the sky was getting dark, the snow was getting heavier, and the garden was getting more and more lively.
When he saw that jade pendant, he knew what Gu Huaishu was worried about.
This matter was initiated by Sun Lianqiao, but Li Wei was somehow involved.
No one knows what Gu Huaixiu's thoughts are.
The people who are searching are tight now, if you don't strike first, I'm afraid that after a while...
Both Sun Lianqiao and Li Wei suffered a lot.
Qingdai was also hard to say, and was about to lure Li Wei to see Gu Huaishu, but unexpectedly, Gu Huaixiu had already quietly come over from the other side of the Moon Gate.
Yinzhen didn't go there, and didn't keep anyone. He was afraid of being seen, so he only went towards Kangxi. Long Ke didn't see anyone for a long time, so he might be dangerous.
Now they are the only ones left here, Gu Huaishu saw Li Wei and said, "Li Wei come here."
Li Wei bowed and slapped Qian'er neatly: "Greetings to Godmother."
What else can I ask for at this time?
She reached out her hand while helping Li Wei, and said in a low voice, "Give me the jade pendant."
Gu Huaixiu hadn't asked about the jade pendant for many years, but today he suddenly came to him, presumably because the matter was urgent, Li Wei resolutely handed the jade pendant to Gu Huaixiu no matter how reluctant he was.
Standing beside Gu Huaishu, Sun Lianqiao took this scene clearly into his eyes, and immediately took a deep breath.
No wonder Gu Huaishu was in a hurry, because her godson still had a jade pendant with almost the same shape in his hand!
If you look it up...
A layer of cold sweat broke out, Sun Lianqiao was still in shock, but found that Gu Huaishou had turned around, reached into her sleeve, and pulled out the jade pendant from her hand, her pair of cold eyes just stared at her , making Sun Lianqiao feel as if she was in an ice cave: "Do you still remember when I joined forces with Nian Fujin to harm me? I chose the road by myself. What are you afraid of now? People live this life, either you scheme against others, or People plot against you. If you want to live, it depends on whether you have the guts!"
Then, Gu Huaishu pulled out a soft smile.
In the groggy darkness, she bent over slightly, and tied the Pisces jade pendant around Sun Lianqiao's waist again.
Sun Lianqiao didn't understand what Gu Huaixiu said at first, she just felt that there was a storm hidden under the words, but the act of Gu Huaixiu tying the jade pendant around her waist made her so frightened that she even stopped breathing up.However, when she raised her eyes, Sun Lianqiao saw Gu Huaixiu's eyes, reflecting the flickering lights in the lively place of Changchun Garden, there was a kind of sharpness at the tip of the blade, as if it was unsheathed in an instant!
However, the moment she lowered her eyes, this kind of sword, light and sword shadow disappeared suddenly.
For the rest, there is only a short silence.
Gu Huaishu's voice was also light: "Now, go back to the emperor."
If you want to live, it depends on whether you have the courage.
The jade pendant that Gu Huaixiu tied back to Sun Lianqiao's body was not Sun Lianqiao's original topaz pendant, but the sapphire pendant that was snatched by Li Wei back then.
This is Gu Huaixiu's calculation.
She shaved Sun Lianqiao's sideburns, then flicked her sleeves casually, and said, "Go."
Sun Lianqiao was terrified to death. After all, no one could be calm when life and death were at stake, but maybe it was Gu Huaishu's sudden calmness that infected her, or maybe it was because she suddenly understood Gu Huaishu's intentions, and finally gritted her teeth and turned around. Already calm as ever.
They are all people who walk on the tip of the emperor's sword.
The mediocre dies from the knife, the middle walks cautiously on the blade, and the capable dances on the tip of the knife.
Gu Huaixiu breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, saw that Li Wei hadn't left, and said, "Think about it carefully, who have seen you wearing this jade pendant on weekdays."
Li Weicai has not been an official for a long time, and he didn't do any errands this year, so I remember clearly that when he hung this jade pendant on his waist, it was only once. and two doctors..."
"Qingdai, go find Su Peisheng..."
Gu Huaishu whispered a word in Qingdai's ear, then turned to Li Wei and said, "Now you just pretend that you have never owned this jade pendant, and I will take care of the rest. If anyone dares to ask about your jade pendant, Write down his name immediately, find any guard in Changchun Garden, no matter who this person is, accuse him of treason, and arrest him immediately!"
Sen Leng's voice was colder than the first snow, and Li Wei shivered fiercely.
This is the last year of Kangxi, and the battle has begun to surface, and killings are inevitable.
Gu Huaishu suddenly possessed an extraordinary and almost miraculous calmness and wisdom. Her rationality allowed her to quickly judge all the current situations and make decisions without hesitation.
This big scene came earlier and more abruptly than she had imagined.
The quiet night was suddenly covered with gunpowder smoke and blood.
As far as Gu Huaishu could see, there were no lanterns, and no beautiful flowers and jewels, only the dark night in Changchun Garden, cold and chilling.
When she turned around, Li Wei was still looking at her back, and suddenly remembered the words that Gu Huaixiu said when he sat opposite him at Dianchan Temple that day, as if yesterday.
This is an even more exciting battle field than the Salt Gang and the Cao Gang. When he first entered the court, he had already seen the many crises and swords and swords lurking in His Royal Highness Jinluan in the prosperous age.
There is no blood in the murder, but every step is frightening.
However, Gu Huaixiu's back figure never seemed to change.
Some people seem to be born for fighting, which makes people confused.
The face is thick and the heart is dark, the way of understanding.
Li Wei understands this point, but only by being thick and not black can great things be achieved, but he can't understand half of it.
The servants in the back were already preparing to leave, seeing a few guards from a distance, Li Wei remembered Gu Huaishu's last words when he left, and became vigilant, but returned to the crowd as if nothing had happened, and went away talking and laughing.
Who in the palace belonged to the fourth master and who belonged to other masters, Gu Huaishu had a clear list in his heart, like a huge net, connecting into a deep palace and an imperial court.
She was walking on the stone path, and she was still wearing the troublesome topaz double fish pendant in her sleeve.
But the sapphire double fish pendant, accompanied by Sun Lianqiao, gradually arrived in front of Kangxi's bedroom.
Just now Kangxi gathered the ministers to talk about the matter, and turned away everyone, even the imperial physicians had already retreated. Sun Lianqiao was originally a girl, so naturally she would not be with the imperial physicians.
Unexpectedly, just retreated to the side hall, waiting for the emperor to summon, soon something happened there, the guards surrounded the hall, Longkodo was called in and cursed, which could be heard from a distance Seeing Kangxi's furious curses, he started to cough after a while, each sound more shocking.
Prince Yong had been worshiping the Buddha in the Old Summer Palace, but today he just wanted to accompany Kangxi and show his filial piety in front of Kangxi, but now he seemed to have heard that something happened, so he hurried to this side.
When standing in front of the door curtain, Kangxi threw out a jade ruyi, hit Longkodo on the head, and then fell to Yinzhen's feet in front.
Yinzhen was unmoved, and just slapped Qian'er and took off the arrow sleeve: "My son Yinzhen pays respects to Huang Ama."
Long Kedo's head was bleeding, and he didn't dare to take a breath. The four great scholars also knelt on the ground and dared not speak. Zhang Tingyu was sitting there to write a daily note, but it was not good to continue sitting at the moment, so he simply put it aside. He wrote the pen, and then knelt beside him to make a show.
Kangxi was furious, the situation of being watched by someone today reminded him of the incident of the night police in the tent, he didn't want him to be in his old age, and there were people watching the dragon chair under him!
How can this make him not angry?
Now when Yinzhen came, he was even more angry, "Nizi, they are all rebellious! Everyone is rebellious, you are all going to rebel! Bind Prince Yong to me, tie him up! Let him go! "
This is really a disaster without reason, but no one dared to refute, Yinzhen's heart turned sharply, and he just kowtowed to the ground: "Huang Ama calm down!"
He himself is taciturn and not good at words, so he doesn't dare to say anything at the moment, he is even more capable of pretending, just saying this is the limit, if he acts too much, it will be counterproductive.Yinzhen simply let the guards come up and tie him up, and then took him down again.
That's good, fourth master goes out completely.
Now the four academicians remembered the "Yinzhen" that Kangxi said just now, it should not be "Yinzhen", but "Yinzhen", otherwise they would not have put Prince Yong in custody so easily.
The fourteenth master's military merits outside are just right, and it can be said that he is very fond of the emperor. Looking at the current situation, it is very clear which prince will inherit the throne.
Ma Qi was determined, since he supported the Eighth Master after he made a mistake, he has been very cautious, he didn't know who to support, but he was still a member of the Eighth Master's party anyway, if the Fourteenth Master came to power, his kindness would be indispensable.
No matter what other people think, Kangxi is still furious here: "Go! Longkodo, what are you doing?! You can make such a big mistake, what a fool! If you can't catch anyone, come and see me!"
Long Keduo kowtowed again and again: "I have neglected my duties, and I have lost the high hopes of the Long Live God. The slave is convicted! The slave is convicted, and the Long Live God calms down. Take care of yourself..."
Li Dequan also came up to persuade, and everyone was about to cry: "Long Live Lord, your dragon body is important, don't get angry, if this person is in Changchun Garden, why can't you find it? Don't be angry... ..."
Now people outside are already interrogating, from the inside to the outside, check one by one!
The person just asked about the Tai Hospital, asking if anyone had seen a person wearing a Pisces jade pendant. When someone mentioned Sun Lianqiao, Sun Lianqiao had already returned. She went directly to the outside of Kangxi's dormitory. Seeing the mess all over the place, she seemed to be a little scared, "Ms. Gu Sun, please ask the Long Live Lord Shengan, it's time to ask the emperor for pulse."
At this moment, the door curtain was raised, but it didn't block it, and everyone saw Sun Lianqiao at once.
At that moment, all eyes were on the jade pendant on Sun Lianqiao's waist!
Pisces Pei!
Isn't this the one the emperor is looking for? !
Before Kangxi could speak, Longkodo was already frightened, and Li Dequan came up and shouted: "Come on, hurry up and take down this traitor!"
Sun Lianqiao fell to her knees, panicked, "Elder-in-law, father-in-law! My wife was wronged!"
The guards who went outside to interrogate the imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital have also returned, knelt in front of the hall, and reported: "Your Majesty, everyone in the Imperial Hospital has finished interrogating, and all the imperial physicians said that Gu Sun occasionally wears Pisces wear!"
Well, everything that should be matched up and down has been matched up!
"That's the person, don't take it yet!"
When Li Dequan should be majestic, he is also majestic. After all, he is the person around Kangxi who has seen big waves, and he gave the order without hesitation.
Only Zhang Tingyu next to him squinted his eyes slightly when he saw the sapphire double fish pendant on Sun Lianqiao's body.
Zhang Tingyu has a good memory, Gu Huaishu remembered that jade pendant, he had almost forgotten it at first, but now that he saw it, he still remembered it.
Kangxi hadn't said anything yet, just stared at Sun Lianqiao coldly.
Sun Lianqiao lay on the ground, shivering, and only begged: "Your Majesty, my wife has been wronged! My wife has served the emperor's decoctions for many years, and followed her father to treat diseases and save people. Annoyed the emperor everywhere and was mistaken for a traitor! I beg the emperor to spare my life, the emperor to spare my life!"
A woman's panic when she was wronged and did not understand the seriousness of the matter was vividly displayed by her.
Confusion, anxiety, fear!
Sun Lianqiao was crying and being dragged by the guards. She didn't dare to give up, and tried her best to hiss: "The emperor is clear! The minister's wife and father are loyal, the emperor is clear--"
"Qi Zou, Your Majesty, it was just now that Concubine Yi caught a suspicious-looking eunuch by the lake. The eunuch threw something into the lake. It is not known what it was. Before it could be salvaged, the eunuch bit his tongue and committed suicide!"
Another news came, Sun Lianqiao was still shouting, and the hall was in chaos.
The ministers were kneeling, Longkoduo was kneeling, and Sun Lianqiao was also kneeling. Fortunately, Yinzhen has been kidnapped now, otherwise it would be much more lively.
One wave of ups and downs, one wave after another, things suddenly became confusing.
Kangxi only looked at Gu Sunshi, and unexpectedly said: "Concubine Yi is shocked, so I will investigate carefully... Li Dequan, tell people to let Gu Sunshi go."
Everyone was stunned, "Your Majesty?"
"That jade pendant is not of this color..."
Kangxi just glanced at it, but he still had a vague impression. He only remembered this jade pendant, and he couldn't remember anything else.
If the jade pendant is not this color, then...
Sun Lianqiao was really innocent.
Everyone's eyes turned, and they all looked at the poor woman. Perhaps they had never seen such a big battle in their life, and they were already shaking like chaff and crying hard.
Sun Lianqiao repeatedly kowtowed: "The emperor is wise, the courtiers are loyal, the sun and the moon can learn from each other, thank you for your insight..."
After speaking, he fell on the ground and cried again.
University scholar Wang Jie was a little hesitant. How could there be such a coincidence in the world: "Your Majesty, the double fish pendant you saw is the same shape as Gu Sun's? It's late, the color and so on..."
"The shape is exactly the same."
Kangxi also had some doubts in his heart, he only glanced at Li Dequan, Li Dequan hurried up and asked Gu Sunshi to take off the jade pendant and hand it over for a look.
Kangxi was the only one who had seen the jade pendant, and he was the only one who knew if he had seen it wrong.
"The same jade pendant, but the jade pendant I have seen is a topaz."
This jade pendant is sapphire.
Zhang Tingyu pondered for a while, then said: "Qi Zuo Emperor, the jade pendant in the shape of a double fish is auspicious and simple in carving, so it is not loved by rich families, but by ordinary people. I thought, those who can get close to this hall, Most of them are the eunuchs and maids who serve you close to the emperor. The Gu Sun family is frugal, and they hang sapphires. However, topaz jade pendants are a little more expensive, but it is a bit wasteful to carve these jade pendants with good materials. If it is really topaz, On the contrary, we should investigate carefully... From this, why not first investigate the eunuchs and maids who are serving close by, and then investigate the servants outside, so as not to..."
In order not to make things worse, the secrets of the palace can never be spread out.
Zhang Tingyu's words made sense, and everyone nodded.
However, few people noticed that although Zhang Tingyu only mentioned Gu Sun's family once in this sentence, he had already secretly put Sun Lianqiao aside. Every sentence made sense, and what's more, Kangxi said that the color was wrong before, which is easy to make people The possibility that Mrs. Gu Sun might be the one who eavesdropped was ignored.
Kangxi only handed back the jade pendant in his hand, Li Dequan returned it to Sun Lianqiao, and waited for news from there.
The investigation has already started after the order was issued here, and after a while, someone came to report: "The 32 eunuchs who have checked the entourage, but one is missing, the one who bit his tongue first and killed himself, and the rest are fine."
Concubine Yi bumped into an eunuch throwing something, and the eunuch committed suicide, there must be something tricky about it.
Thinking back and forth, everyone immediately knew that there was a ghost.
Kangxi is not an ordinary person, he said angrily: "Just check this eunuch and find out who he is dealing with. I want to see who has such courage! Another person went down to the lake to find the eunuch who left behind. Something... ahem!"
Before he finished speaking, there was another violent cough, a layer of flush appeared on Kangxi's face, and then it quickly turned gray, coughing up a mouthful of blood, and dyed the bright yellow coat red, which shocked everyone Call.
Sun Lianqiao rushed forward to feel the pulse, and called someone to prescribe the medicine, and there was a panic here.
After the emperor's condition was stabilized, and looking at Kangxi's whole body, he had passed his anger just now, and became sluggish.
Fortunately, the results of the investigation by the guards were also presented. Now that Kangxi was drinking medicine and Li Dequan was waiting on him, Zhang Tingyu went out to listen for a while.
Kangxi saw it out of the corner of his eye, and said: "Don't be shy, Zhang Tingyu, ask the guards to answer."
"Yes."
Zhang Tingyu glanced at the guard, and said: "The emperor told you to answer, why don't you tell me?"
The guard said: "The servants and others have fished out this thing just now, and found 300 taels of silver notes and a box of jewelry from the eunuch's residence, and present them to the emperor for review."
An eunuch next to him took the things and showed them to Kangxi. Kangxi saw the topaz pendant at a glance, and felt chills in his heart, "Check, check carefully... the little eunuch actually has 300 taels of silver, look It looks like the salary given by the palace is really high!"
"Snapped!"
In a rage, Kangxi dropped the medicine bowl again, his eyes turned red: "Get out of here! Get out!"
Everyone was silent, and the ministers tried to persuade Kangxi to calm down, but Kangxi rolled his eyes and passed out. Sun Lianqiao went up to feel his pulse again, and said: "I am very angry, nothing serious happened, hurry up and bring in the medicine just now. Wait for the emperor to drink, and then the minister's wife will go out and prescribe medicine."
After speaking, Sun Lianqiao got up and left, the imperial physician was already waiting outside.
At this juncture, the ministers did not dare to stay inside, they all retreated and stood anxiously outside the hall.
Seeing the imperial physicians waiting outside, Zhang Tingyu also came back with injuries, Li Dequan came out and said: "Look at the bleeding, quickly bandage it."
It was not good for the imperial physicians to see Long Kedo like this, so they treated Long Kedo's wounds. The imperial physicians already knew the cause of the incident, and they could only sigh at the moment.
However, Sun Lianqiao wrote the prescription, put down the pen, brought the prescription over, and explained the purpose to the imperial physicians, but someone caught a glimpse of the jade pendant on Sun Lianqiao's waist.
This is definitely not the jade pendant that Sun Lianqiao usually wears!
There are ghosts!
Some people gasped, but who has the means to steal the day? !
This is the crime of bullying the king!
With a shaking of his hand, an imperial physician accidentally touched the wound on Long Kedo's head. Long Kedo said "Ouch" and didn't dare to yell, so he could only lower his voice to let the imperial physician be gentle.
Although the emperor is angry now, Longkodo is still the younger brother of the former empress after all. The emperor can't really do anything to Longkodo. Everyone knows that the emperor is just a moment of anger, and he dare not neglect Longkodo at this moment.
It's just that it's not Longkodo that matters anymore.
Sun Lianqiao lowered her eyebrows and pleasing her eyes. When her eyes turned, she had already swept across Zhang Tingyu who was standing outside with her head bowed.
Gu Huaixiu and Zhang Tingyu had absolutely no chance of getting in touch with each other, but Zhang Tingyu had already figured it out when he saw her change the jade pendant. Only the two of them could control such calculations and scheming.
"Second Madam Gu, your jade pendant..."
An old doctor frowned, but finally couldn't help it.
Long Ke took a look and said: "Second Madam Gu, you are really, you are already a madam, don't wear such poor things in the future, it doesn't matter to you, I am so tired that I have an accident, fortunately this time I understand I understand, otherwise you will fall into it yourself!"
The imperial doctors suddenly stopped talking, this place is extremely weird.
Sun Lianqiao bowed slightly, and made a salute: "My wife is used to being frugal, and she behaves properly and sits upright. Please bear this in mind."
Looking back, the veteran doctor Du in the palace had cold sweat on his forehead and his hands were shaking all the time. Sun Lianqiao narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "Doctor Du, did you suffer from some illness? Let me show you, junior?"
How dare Imperial Physician Du say anything?
He handed back the prescription, his back was drenched in cold sweat, what else did he not understand at this moment?He could only shake his lips and say, "No, it's not in the way..."
In ancient times, Zhao Gao regarded a stag as a horse, but what is happening today is different from Zhao Gao in the past!
Take a closer look at the guards around here, think about Long Kedo's identity, and Zhang Tingyu's words just now, the scholars outside are unaware of all the panic in the side hall, but this group of imperial doctors feel like they are on the chopping board Butchered fish.
Can't see, can't see at all...
A big situation, a big net, but who is behind the net...
(End of this chapter)
The sky had just darkened, and lanterns of various colors were placed on the white snow, which was indescribably beautiful.
Gu Huaixiu had just paid homage to Empress Concubine De and came down, so she walked around casually. Changchun Garden really hasn't been there much, and I just took a quick look at it in the early years. After all, it was a place where the emperor often came, and it was built after Jiangnan gardens. , but it's not interesting.
Thinking about it, she hasn't been back to Jiangnan for a long time. She grew up in the capital, followed Gu Zhenguan to leave Beijing and then went to Jiangnan. How many years have she been back and forth?I don't even remember.
Seeing the scenery of Jiangnan in front of him now, Gu Huaishu couldn't hold back, and even started to recall the past.
"Second Madam Zhang, where is your maidservant, maybe she is looking for you."
Mrs. Wang Jida suddenly stopped in her tracks and pointed at Gu Huaishu.
Gu Huaixiu was slightly taken aback, she didn't expect Qing Dai to come over at this moment, she said: "It turned out to be the maid who brought here before, maybe it's something important, I'll go there, excuse me."
It wasn't an important matter at all, everyone just nodded and continued to walk down.
As soon as Gu Huaishu turned around, he passed the long stone path above the water, and stopped by the veranda, Qing Dai came over immediately.
The master and servant stood in the dark, not blocking the way of others, and even less people noticed.
The masters were playing, and the maids were all around, but they didn't expect that something happened suddenly, someone passed the news to Qing Dai, and Qing Dai came to look for Gu Huaishu.
"Second Madam Gu just brought someone over and waited for you under the small bridge. I'm afraid something may have happened." Qing Dai paused, and then said, "Second Madam Gu was still serving by the emperor's side before, and the first lady Longkodo came The guard said that he wanted to arrest a person with a Pisces jade pendant on his body, and this servant felt that..."
Pisces Jade Pendant?
Gu Huaixiu thought about Qing Dai's words back and forth, and then he understood.
She pressed her hand, and walked forward as if nothing had happened, but in fact she was holding Qing Dai and led the way by Qing Dai, pretending to meet Sun Lianqiao by chance.
Now Sun Lianqiao's hands in his sleeves were already trembling, and there was a jade pendant hidden in his sleeves. The moment he saw Gu Huaixiu, Sun Lianqiao's six gods had their master again.
"Second Madam Zhang..."
"What happened to sister-in-law?"
Gu Huaishu reached out and held her hand, but his eyes were extremely sharp.
Although they didn't know what happened, the two of them just walked forward as if nothing had happened.
Sun Lianqiao was terrified, so she whispered the matter.
First, Kangxi asked the ministers to discuss matters, and Longkodo instructed her to go up and eavesdrop. Who would have thought that a cat appeared somewhere, right at the place where Kangxi was talking about, and Sun Lianqiao was startled, but there was no sound, but It happened that Sun Lianqiao took such a step back.
It was that step that exposed Sun Lianqiao.
The emperor threw a medicine bowl at him, only opened the corner of the door curtain, and the person was gone.
At this moment, the entire Changchun Garden was full of guards, searching for people everywhere, only saying that Kangxi saw a person with a double fish pendant on his body, and he must be a ghost in it.
Gu Huaishu never expected that such a thrilling event would come out. Looking back, everyone in the garden hadn't noticed it, obviously they hadn't found it here, but the concubine had already vaguely responded.
It must be no trivial matter that Sun Lianqiao eavesdropped. Kangxi's health is getting worse day by day, what can he secretly discuss with the minister?
Thinking about it this way, the secrets hidden inside can be called shocking.
Perhaps Zhang Tingyu was also inside, but the four academicians didn't come out, which was scary.
Gu Huaixiu only said: "With Longkodo here, don't worry for now, there will always be a time when this matter is perfunctory, you just think that you have already gone far, and you can't be implicated."
Because the Fourteenth Lord had already left Beijing in the early years, the other princes were not very useful. Thinking about it carefully, among the sons of Kangxi, the Fourth Lord is the most capable of doing things. Now there is a Longkodo in the inner court. Back then Zhang Tingyu was able to walk in the South Study Room without any worries, and many eunuchs in the palace flattered Zhang Tingyu, one can imagine that the inner court was not so clean.
What's more, it is now in Changchun Garden, not like in the palace.
Fourth Master is also in Changchun Garden now, and nothing can escape his control.
After careful consideration, Gu Huai also let go of most of his sleeves.
Sun Lianqiao's face already had the look of weather and years, and holding that jade pendant felt like holding a hot iron, and she was in pain and distress: "Someone in the Imperial Hospital has seen this jade pendant of mine, if... "
jade pendant...
Gu Huaishu's heart skipped a beat, and suddenly he turned around and shouted: "Qingdai!"
Qing Dai was also startled: "Madam?"
"Where is Li Wei now?!"
Gu Huaishu's whole scalp exploded. Now that Sun Lianqiao knew the news and hid, and took off the jade pendant on her waist, even if someone identified her, she would not be able to find Sun Lianqiao for a while. , but Li Weicai pulled out the doctor of the household department, and today he also came to Changchun Garden to perform affairs, and I'm afraid he hasn't left yet.
How does Qingdai know where Li Weiren is?
Knowing what happened to Sun Lianqiao here, Qingdai also knew what Gu Huaishu was worried about. When Li Wei was a street gangster, he cheated in front of Zhang's mansion in the capital, and even snatched the girl who was holding Qingdai's hand. Later, when Gu Huaishu returned home, he found another topaz double fish pendant that he had made together in his box, and gave it to Sun Lianqiao.But the sapphire double fish pendant at the beginning fell into Li Wei's hands. Even if he met Li Wei in Jiangnan later, the double fish pendant was not returned. Later, he even recognized Li Wei's son. Naturally, the jade pendant was not on his mind either.
Originally, Gu Huaishou treated Li Wei very well. Li Wei never read anyone and wanted to honor his godmother. The jade pendant was almost always carried with him, but sometimes he kept it in his pocket and sometimes he hung it up.
Now that such a terrible thing happened, no one else knew about it, the female relatives watching the lamp here were unconscious, and the ministers in front might not know anything.
What's more, Li Wei is just a small official, a mere servant, Yinzhen may not be able to take care of Li Wei, and Li Wei has nothing to do with this matter, who can inform him?
Gu Huaishou's lips trembled so badly that Qing Dai pinched her, then he calmed down, and said: "Find a hidden place, and call Li Wei for me, if people ask me later, they will say that I feel cold, I went to sit in the side hall... Sister-in-law, don't leave for now, just stay with me at that time."
At this time, the most important thing is time!
I don't care about that much anymore.
Gu Huaishu sent Qing Dai to inform someone to find Li Wei, and then she took Sun Lianqiao away.
Sun Lianqiao was completely at a loss, and didn't know what was going on now.
How could Gu Huaishu explain so much at this time?
She only thought that the emperor was old and dim-sighted, but he saw clearly that it was the Pisces jade pendant, but he didn't say anything about it. If he wanted to arrest someone, Li Wei might be in danger.
Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case, if Li Weizhen wears it, he will definitely not escape!
Anyway, he is someone who usually calls Gu Huaixiu a motherfucker, how could Gu Huaixiu put him in danger?
Few people knew about the jade pendant. Zhang Tingyu must be under the eyes of the emperor now. Time, even rebellion has no confidence!
How can we come back?
Gu Huaishu bit her lip, didn't pay attention, it was broken, and a drop of blood came out. She tasted the fishy smell, and her steps slowed down, and she suddenly turned her head to look at Sun Lianqiao.
But at this time, she didn't speak.
Sun Lianqiao also knew that she was thinking about something, so she didn't dare to disturb her.
Rest your mind first, if Gu Huaixu's method is to be effective, you still have to wait for news from Li Wei.
After all, the guards here are still under the care of Long Kedo, and the fourth master is here again. Qing Dai just went to look for someone, but was seen by Gao Wuyong beside Yinzhen.
Just now some unusual news came from the emperor's dormitory. Yinzhen is also thinking about it here. Knowing that he is probably looking for Sun Lianqiao, he is already thinking about abandoning the pawn to protect the car. Be careful, if you really find out something, not one is unlucky.
Yinzhen has always had a dark heart, and the time is getting ripe, what can't be done?
If it weren't for the large crowd today, and the ministers were still in Changchun Garden, he would be able to do anything.
Just as he was about to go to see Kangxi, Gao Wuyong said, "It's the maid next to Mrs. Zhang Er."
Qingdai?
Yinzhen paused, and saw the maid approaching calmly, as if there was something wrong, so he asked Gao Wuyong to ask quietly.
Qing Dai didn't find Li Wei here, she was in a hurry, she was overjoyed to see Gao Wuyong, she also knew the seriousness of the matter, so she said she wanted to find Li Wei.
Yinzhen is full of brothers here, and because of Long Kedo's relationship, he was able to mobilize the guards at Changchun Garden, and he led Li Wei out of the crowd in a short while.
As soon as Qing Dai met, she asked him where the jade pendant was. Li Wei only frowned, and touched his bosom, and there was indeed a jade pendant.
"When your master called you over, didn't you say anything?"
Yinzhen was also in the dark, the sky was getting dark, the snow was getting heavier, and the garden was getting more and more lively.
When he saw that jade pendant, he knew what Gu Huaishu was worried about.
This matter was initiated by Sun Lianqiao, but Li Wei was somehow involved.
No one knows what Gu Huaixiu's thoughts are.
The people who are searching are tight now, if you don't strike first, I'm afraid that after a while...
Both Sun Lianqiao and Li Wei suffered a lot.
Qingdai was also hard to say, and was about to lure Li Wei to see Gu Huaishu, but unexpectedly, Gu Huaixiu had already quietly come over from the other side of the Moon Gate.
Yinzhen didn't go there, and didn't keep anyone. He was afraid of being seen, so he only went towards Kangxi. Long Ke didn't see anyone for a long time, so he might be dangerous.
Now they are the only ones left here, Gu Huaishu saw Li Wei and said, "Li Wei come here."
Li Wei bowed and slapped Qian'er neatly: "Greetings to Godmother."
What else can I ask for at this time?
She reached out her hand while helping Li Wei, and said in a low voice, "Give me the jade pendant."
Gu Huaixiu hadn't asked about the jade pendant for many years, but today he suddenly came to him, presumably because the matter was urgent, Li Wei resolutely handed the jade pendant to Gu Huaixiu no matter how reluctant he was.
Standing beside Gu Huaishu, Sun Lianqiao took this scene clearly into his eyes, and immediately took a deep breath.
No wonder Gu Huaishu was in a hurry, because her godson still had a jade pendant with almost the same shape in his hand!
If you look it up...
A layer of cold sweat broke out, Sun Lianqiao was still in shock, but found that Gu Huaishou had turned around, reached into her sleeve, and pulled out the jade pendant from her hand, her pair of cold eyes just stared at her , making Sun Lianqiao feel as if she was in an ice cave: "Do you still remember when I joined forces with Nian Fujin to harm me? I chose the road by myself. What are you afraid of now? People live this life, either you scheme against others, or People plot against you. If you want to live, it depends on whether you have the guts!"
Then, Gu Huaishu pulled out a soft smile.
In the groggy darkness, she bent over slightly, and tied the Pisces jade pendant around Sun Lianqiao's waist again.
Sun Lianqiao didn't understand what Gu Huaixiu said at first, she just felt that there was a storm hidden under the words, but the act of Gu Huaixiu tying the jade pendant around her waist made her so frightened that she even stopped breathing up.However, when she raised her eyes, Sun Lianqiao saw Gu Huaixiu's eyes, reflecting the flickering lights in the lively place of Changchun Garden, there was a kind of sharpness at the tip of the blade, as if it was unsheathed in an instant!
However, the moment she lowered her eyes, this kind of sword, light and sword shadow disappeared suddenly.
For the rest, there is only a short silence.
Gu Huaishu's voice was also light: "Now, go back to the emperor."
If you want to live, it depends on whether you have the courage.
The jade pendant that Gu Huaixiu tied back to Sun Lianqiao's body was not Sun Lianqiao's original topaz pendant, but the sapphire pendant that was snatched by Li Wei back then.
This is Gu Huaixiu's calculation.
She shaved Sun Lianqiao's sideburns, then flicked her sleeves casually, and said, "Go."
Sun Lianqiao was terrified to death. After all, no one could be calm when life and death were at stake, but maybe it was Gu Huaishu's sudden calmness that infected her, or maybe it was because she suddenly understood Gu Huaishu's intentions, and finally gritted her teeth and turned around. Already calm as ever.
They are all people who walk on the tip of the emperor's sword.
The mediocre dies from the knife, the middle walks cautiously on the blade, and the capable dances on the tip of the knife.
Gu Huaixiu breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, saw that Li Wei hadn't left, and said, "Think about it carefully, who have seen you wearing this jade pendant on weekdays."
Li Weicai has not been an official for a long time, and he didn't do any errands this year, so I remember clearly that when he hung this jade pendant on his waist, it was only once. and two doctors..."
"Qingdai, go find Su Peisheng..."
Gu Huaishu whispered a word in Qingdai's ear, then turned to Li Wei and said, "Now you just pretend that you have never owned this jade pendant, and I will take care of the rest. If anyone dares to ask about your jade pendant, Write down his name immediately, find any guard in Changchun Garden, no matter who this person is, accuse him of treason, and arrest him immediately!"
Sen Leng's voice was colder than the first snow, and Li Wei shivered fiercely.
This is the last year of Kangxi, and the battle has begun to surface, and killings are inevitable.
Gu Huaishu suddenly possessed an extraordinary and almost miraculous calmness and wisdom. Her rationality allowed her to quickly judge all the current situations and make decisions without hesitation.
This big scene came earlier and more abruptly than she had imagined.
The quiet night was suddenly covered with gunpowder smoke and blood.
As far as Gu Huaishu could see, there were no lanterns, and no beautiful flowers and jewels, only the dark night in Changchun Garden, cold and chilling.
When she turned around, Li Wei was still looking at her back, and suddenly remembered the words that Gu Huaixiu said when he sat opposite him at Dianchan Temple that day, as if yesterday.
This is an even more exciting battle field than the Salt Gang and the Cao Gang. When he first entered the court, he had already seen the many crises and swords and swords lurking in His Royal Highness Jinluan in the prosperous age.
There is no blood in the murder, but every step is frightening.
However, Gu Huaixiu's back figure never seemed to change.
Some people seem to be born for fighting, which makes people confused.
The face is thick and the heart is dark, the way of understanding.
Li Wei understands this point, but only by being thick and not black can great things be achieved, but he can't understand half of it.
The servants in the back were already preparing to leave, seeing a few guards from a distance, Li Wei remembered Gu Huaishu's last words when he left, and became vigilant, but returned to the crowd as if nothing had happened, and went away talking and laughing.
Who in the palace belonged to the fourth master and who belonged to other masters, Gu Huaishu had a clear list in his heart, like a huge net, connecting into a deep palace and an imperial court.
She was walking on the stone path, and she was still wearing the troublesome topaz double fish pendant in her sleeve.
But the sapphire double fish pendant, accompanied by Sun Lianqiao, gradually arrived in front of Kangxi's bedroom.
Just now Kangxi gathered the ministers to talk about the matter, and turned away everyone, even the imperial physicians had already retreated. Sun Lianqiao was originally a girl, so naturally she would not be with the imperial physicians.
Unexpectedly, just retreated to the side hall, waiting for the emperor to summon, soon something happened there, the guards surrounded the hall, Longkodo was called in and cursed, which could be heard from a distance Seeing Kangxi's furious curses, he started to cough after a while, each sound more shocking.
Prince Yong had been worshiping the Buddha in the Old Summer Palace, but today he just wanted to accompany Kangxi and show his filial piety in front of Kangxi, but now he seemed to have heard that something happened, so he hurried to this side.
When standing in front of the door curtain, Kangxi threw out a jade ruyi, hit Longkodo on the head, and then fell to Yinzhen's feet in front.
Yinzhen was unmoved, and just slapped Qian'er and took off the arrow sleeve: "My son Yinzhen pays respects to Huang Ama."
Long Kedo's head was bleeding, and he didn't dare to take a breath. The four great scholars also knelt on the ground and dared not speak. Zhang Tingyu was sitting there to write a daily note, but it was not good to continue sitting at the moment, so he simply put it aside. He wrote the pen, and then knelt beside him to make a show.
Kangxi was furious, the situation of being watched by someone today reminded him of the incident of the night police in the tent, he didn't want him to be in his old age, and there were people watching the dragon chair under him!
How can this make him not angry?
Now when Yinzhen came, he was even more angry, "Nizi, they are all rebellious! Everyone is rebellious, you are all going to rebel! Bind Prince Yong to me, tie him up! Let him go! "
This is really a disaster without reason, but no one dared to refute, Yinzhen's heart turned sharply, and he just kowtowed to the ground: "Huang Ama calm down!"
He himself is taciturn and not good at words, so he doesn't dare to say anything at the moment, he is even more capable of pretending, just saying this is the limit, if he acts too much, it will be counterproductive.Yinzhen simply let the guards come up and tie him up, and then took him down again.
That's good, fourth master goes out completely.
Now the four academicians remembered the "Yinzhen" that Kangxi said just now, it should not be "Yinzhen", but "Yinzhen", otherwise they would not have put Prince Yong in custody so easily.
The fourteenth master's military merits outside are just right, and it can be said that he is very fond of the emperor. Looking at the current situation, it is very clear which prince will inherit the throne.
Ma Qi was determined, since he supported the Eighth Master after he made a mistake, he has been very cautious, he didn't know who to support, but he was still a member of the Eighth Master's party anyway, if the Fourteenth Master came to power, his kindness would be indispensable.
No matter what other people think, Kangxi is still furious here: "Go! Longkodo, what are you doing?! You can make such a big mistake, what a fool! If you can't catch anyone, come and see me!"
Long Keduo kowtowed again and again: "I have neglected my duties, and I have lost the high hopes of the Long Live God. The slave is convicted! The slave is convicted, and the Long Live God calms down. Take care of yourself..."
Li Dequan also came up to persuade, and everyone was about to cry: "Long Live Lord, your dragon body is important, don't get angry, if this person is in Changchun Garden, why can't you find it? Don't be angry... ..."
Now people outside are already interrogating, from the inside to the outside, check one by one!
The person just asked about the Tai Hospital, asking if anyone had seen a person wearing a Pisces jade pendant. When someone mentioned Sun Lianqiao, Sun Lianqiao had already returned. She went directly to the outside of Kangxi's dormitory. Seeing the mess all over the place, she seemed to be a little scared, "Ms. Gu Sun, please ask the Long Live Lord Shengan, it's time to ask the emperor for pulse."
At this moment, the door curtain was raised, but it didn't block it, and everyone saw Sun Lianqiao at once.
At that moment, all eyes were on the jade pendant on Sun Lianqiao's waist!
Pisces Pei!
Isn't this the one the emperor is looking for? !
Before Kangxi could speak, Longkodo was already frightened, and Li Dequan came up and shouted: "Come on, hurry up and take down this traitor!"
Sun Lianqiao fell to her knees, panicked, "Elder-in-law, father-in-law! My wife was wronged!"
The guards who went outside to interrogate the imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital have also returned, knelt in front of the hall, and reported: "Your Majesty, everyone in the Imperial Hospital has finished interrogating, and all the imperial physicians said that Gu Sun occasionally wears Pisces wear!"
Well, everything that should be matched up and down has been matched up!
"That's the person, don't take it yet!"
When Li Dequan should be majestic, he is also majestic. After all, he is the person around Kangxi who has seen big waves, and he gave the order without hesitation.
Only Zhang Tingyu next to him squinted his eyes slightly when he saw the sapphire double fish pendant on Sun Lianqiao's body.
Zhang Tingyu has a good memory, Gu Huaishu remembered that jade pendant, he had almost forgotten it at first, but now that he saw it, he still remembered it.
Kangxi hadn't said anything yet, just stared at Sun Lianqiao coldly.
Sun Lianqiao lay on the ground, shivering, and only begged: "Your Majesty, my wife has been wronged! My wife has served the emperor's decoctions for many years, and followed her father to treat diseases and save people. Annoyed the emperor everywhere and was mistaken for a traitor! I beg the emperor to spare my life, the emperor to spare my life!"
A woman's panic when she was wronged and did not understand the seriousness of the matter was vividly displayed by her.
Confusion, anxiety, fear!
Sun Lianqiao was crying and being dragged by the guards. She didn't dare to give up, and tried her best to hiss: "The emperor is clear! The minister's wife and father are loyal, the emperor is clear--"
"Qi Zou, Your Majesty, it was just now that Concubine Yi caught a suspicious-looking eunuch by the lake. The eunuch threw something into the lake. It is not known what it was. Before it could be salvaged, the eunuch bit his tongue and committed suicide!"
Another news came, Sun Lianqiao was still shouting, and the hall was in chaos.
The ministers were kneeling, Longkoduo was kneeling, and Sun Lianqiao was also kneeling. Fortunately, Yinzhen has been kidnapped now, otherwise it would be much more lively.
One wave of ups and downs, one wave after another, things suddenly became confusing.
Kangxi only looked at Gu Sunshi, and unexpectedly said: "Concubine Yi is shocked, so I will investigate carefully... Li Dequan, tell people to let Gu Sunshi go."
Everyone was stunned, "Your Majesty?"
"That jade pendant is not of this color..."
Kangxi just glanced at it, but he still had a vague impression. He only remembered this jade pendant, and he couldn't remember anything else.
If the jade pendant is not this color, then...
Sun Lianqiao was really innocent.
Everyone's eyes turned, and they all looked at the poor woman. Perhaps they had never seen such a big battle in their life, and they were already shaking like chaff and crying hard.
Sun Lianqiao repeatedly kowtowed: "The emperor is wise, the courtiers are loyal, the sun and the moon can learn from each other, thank you for your insight..."
After speaking, he fell on the ground and cried again.
University scholar Wang Jie was a little hesitant. How could there be such a coincidence in the world: "Your Majesty, the double fish pendant you saw is the same shape as Gu Sun's? It's late, the color and so on..."
"The shape is exactly the same."
Kangxi also had some doubts in his heart, he only glanced at Li Dequan, Li Dequan hurried up and asked Gu Sunshi to take off the jade pendant and hand it over for a look.
Kangxi was the only one who had seen the jade pendant, and he was the only one who knew if he had seen it wrong.
"The same jade pendant, but the jade pendant I have seen is a topaz."
This jade pendant is sapphire.
Zhang Tingyu pondered for a while, then said: "Qi Zuo Emperor, the jade pendant in the shape of a double fish is auspicious and simple in carving, so it is not loved by rich families, but by ordinary people. I thought, those who can get close to this hall, Most of them are the eunuchs and maids who serve you close to the emperor. The Gu Sun family is frugal, and they hang sapphires. However, topaz jade pendants are a little more expensive, but it is a bit wasteful to carve these jade pendants with good materials. If it is really topaz, On the contrary, we should investigate carefully... From this, why not first investigate the eunuchs and maids who are serving close by, and then investigate the servants outside, so as not to..."
In order not to make things worse, the secrets of the palace can never be spread out.
Zhang Tingyu's words made sense, and everyone nodded.
However, few people noticed that although Zhang Tingyu only mentioned Gu Sun's family once in this sentence, he had already secretly put Sun Lianqiao aside. Every sentence made sense, and what's more, Kangxi said that the color was wrong before, which is easy to make people The possibility that Mrs. Gu Sun might be the one who eavesdropped was ignored.
Kangxi only handed back the jade pendant in his hand, Li Dequan returned it to Sun Lianqiao, and waited for news from there.
The investigation has already started after the order was issued here, and after a while, someone came to report: "The 32 eunuchs who have checked the entourage, but one is missing, the one who bit his tongue first and killed himself, and the rest are fine."
Concubine Yi bumped into an eunuch throwing something, and the eunuch committed suicide, there must be something tricky about it.
Thinking back and forth, everyone immediately knew that there was a ghost.
Kangxi is not an ordinary person, he said angrily: "Just check this eunuch and find out who he is dealing with. I want to see who has such courage! Another person went down to the lake to find the eunuch who left behind. Something... ahem!"
Before he finished speaking, there was another violent cough, a layer of flush appeared on Kangxi's face, and then it quickly turned gray, coughing up a mouthful of blood, and dyed the bright yellow coat red, which shocked everyone Call.
Sun Lianqiao rushed forward to feel the pulse, and called someone to prescribe the medicine, and there was a panic here.
After the emperor's condition was stabilized, and looking at Kangxi's whole body, he had passed his anger just now, and became sluggish.
Fortunately, the results of the investigation by the guards were also presented. Now that Kangxi was drinking medicine and Li Dequan was waiting on him, Zhang Tingyu went out to listen for a while.
Kangxi saw it out of the corner of his eye, and said: "Don't be shy, Zhang Tingyu, ask the guards to answer."
"Yes."
Zhang Tingyu glanced at the guard, and said: "The emperor told you to answer, why don't you tell me?"
The guard said: "The servants and others have fished out this thing just now, and found 300 taels of silver notes and a box of jewelry from the eunuch's residence, and present them to the emperor for review."
An eunuch next to him took the things and showed them to Kangxi. Kangxi saw the topaz pendant at a glance, and felt chills in his heart, "Check, check carefully... the little eunuch actually has 300 taels of silver, look It looks like the salary given by the palace is really high!"
"Snapped!"
In a rage, Kangxi dropped the medicine bowl again, his eyes turned red: "Get out of here! Get out!"
Everyone was silent, and the ministers tried to persuade Kangxi to calm down, but Kangxi rolled his eyes and passed out. Sun Lianqiao went up to feel his pulse again, and said: "I am very angry, nothing serious happened, hurry up and bring in the medicine just now. Wait for the emperor to drink, and then the minister's wife will go out and prescribe medicine."
After speaking, Sun Lianqiao got up and left, the imperial physician was already waiting outside.
At this juncture, the ministers did not dare to stay inside, they all retreated and stood anxiously outside the hall.
Seeing the imperial physicians waiting outside, Zhang Tingyu also came back with injuries, Li Dequan came out and said: "Look at the bleeding, quickly bandage it."
It was not good for the imperial physicians to see Long Kedo like this, so they treated Long Kedo's wounds. The imperial physicians already knew the cause of the incident, and they could only sigh at the moment.
However, Sun Lianqiao wrote the prescription, put down the pen, brought the prescription over, and explained the purpose to the imperial physicians, but someone caught a glimpse of the jade pendant on Sun Lianqiao's waist.
This is definitely not the jade pendant that Sun Lianqiao usually wears!
There are ghosts!
Some people gasped, but who has the means to steal the day? !
This is the crime of bullying the king!
With a shaking of his hand, an imperial physician accidentally touched the wound on Long Kedo's head. Long Kedo said "Ouch" and didn't dare to yell, so he could only lower his voice to let the imperial physician be gentle.
Although the emperor is angry now, Longkodo is still the younger brother of the former empress after all. The emperor can't really do anything to Longkodo. Everyone knows that the emperor is just a moment of anger, and he dare not neglect Longkodo at this moment.
It's just that it's not Longkodo that matters anymore.
Sun Lianqiao lowered her eyebrows and pleasing her eyes. When her eyes turned, she had already swept across Zhang Tingyu who was standing outside with her head bowed.
Gu Huaixiu and Zhang Tingyu had absolutely no chance of getting in touch with each other, but Zhang Tingyu had already figured it out when he saw her change the jade pendant. Only the two of them could control such calculations and scheming.
"Second Madam Gu, your jade pendant..."
An old doctor frowned, but finally couldn't help it.
Long Ke took a look and said: "Second Madam Gu, you are really, you are already a madam, don't wear such poor things in the future, it doesn't matter to you, I am so tired that I have an accident, fortunately this time I understand I understand, otherwise you will fall into it yourself!"
The imperial doctors suddenly stopped talking, this place is extremely weird.
Sun Lianqiao bowed slightly, and made a salute: "My wife is used to being frugal, and she behaves properly and sits upright. Please bear this in mind."
Looking back, the veteran doctor Du in the palace had cold sweat on his forehead and his hands were shaking all the time. Sun Lianqiao narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "Doctor Du, did you suffer from some illness? Let me show you, junior?"
How dare Imperial Physician Du say anything?
He handed back the prescription, his back was drenched in cold sweat, what else did he not understand at this moment?He could only shake his lips and say, "No, it's not in the way..."
In ancient times, Zhao Gao regarded a stag as a horse, but what is happening today is different from Zhao Gao in the past!
Take a closer look at the guards around here, think about Long Kedo's identity, and Zhang Tingyu's words just now, the scholars outside are unaware of all the panic in the side hall, but this group of imperial doctors feel like they are on the chopping board Butchered fish.
Can't see, can't see at all...
A big situation, a big net, but who is behind the net...
