Chapter 10 The Prince's Death
He knew that the emperor's character was paranoid, and it would be harder for him to admit that he had made a mistake in his judgment than ascending to the sky. The only solution now is to save Gu Shuo's family, struggle to get up from the bed, and kneel in front of the emperor: "Father, my son!" I guarantee with my life that Gu Shuo will never take part in the rebellion. Now that Gu Shuo is dead and my son-in-law was poisoned, everything is a conspiracy. Gu Shuo's death is irreparable, and the son-in-law just begs his father to spare his family. The son is about to die."

He spoke intermittently, exhausting all his strength, the queen crawled over and knelt beside him, "Your majesty, just promise Sheng'er, don't you know his character as a child? Courtesy, righteousness and filial piety are right For him, it is his lifelong belief, so how could he rebel against it?"

When the emperor saw Li Sheng's appearance and thought of Gu Shuo's bizarre death, he didn't have doubts in his heart, but he was afraid, afraid that people would call him a foolish king, and afraid that knowing the truth would involve more things that would disappoint him, so he bowed his head and remained silent. .

At this time, Li Sheng knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Father, isn't it enough to exchange the lives of my sons and ministers for the lives of Gu Shuo's family? Don't ask them to enjoy the honor, just keep their lives."

The empress looked at the ruthless emperor and her begging son, pulled out a golden hairpin and said decisively to herself: "Your Majesty, if you don't agree to Sheng'er's request, the concubine will have to ask for it with her life. "

Now the emperor panicked, and quickly helped the queen up: "What is the queen doing? When did I say no? Come on, Gu Shuo's rebellion is a foregone conclusion, and Gu Shuo committed suicide in fear of crime. Old General Gu made great military exploits, he spared his family members, ransacked Gu’s house and expelled all Gu’s family members from the capital, and they will never return to Beijing.”

When the prince heard the emperor's words, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and passed out again. The queen cried and shouted but did not wake him up.

Xu Changrong searched ancient books and medical classics, and finally found a chronic poison that is compatible with licorice, hook kiss flower, in an ancient medical record.

However, it was too late, Prince Li Sheng only woke up once, and he passed away after confessing to Gao Ning, and never woke up again.

The situation changed that day, and the whole capital city was covered with heavy snow, which covered all the ground in an instant. He had a nervous breakdown, his stomach hurt like a knife on the spot, and his lower body was already bleeding.

"Come here, help me, hurry up and ask Doctor Xu, hurry up." Qingping screamed as she supported Fu Ziyu, who was already in a daze. It was still a soldier who had been favored by Gu Shuo in the past, and secretly sent out the letter.

When Xu Changrong arrived, Fu Ziyu was on the verge of dying, and she begged him with the little strength she had: "Help my child!"

In the end, with the efforts of Xu Changrong, Fu Ziyu gave birth to a seven-month-old baby girl. The cat-sized baby was weak just after birth, and could only make whimpering sounds, which was extremely weak.

But Fu Ziyu reluctantly glanced at her daughter, and only had time to say a word: "Qingping, Gu Qianli, tell her, her name is Gu Qianli."

"Madam, you can't die, Madam." Qingping cried and knelt down in front of Fu Ziyu, watching her close her eyes with difficulty, tears still hanging on her still warm face.

Regardless of Fu Ziyu who had just passed away, Xu Changrong hastily turned a pill into water and fed it into Gu Qianli's mouth, because this child is really too weak, if he is not taken care of carefully, he may not live long.

"Qingping, she's gone, it's useless to cry. The most important thing for you now is to take good care of Ayu's child." Xu Changrong has experienced the death of three friends in succession, and he has no tears under the great grief. Now only He was the only one left, and only he was strong enough to arrange their funeral.

Qingping took over Gu Qianli, "Doctor Xu, don't worry, my wife has treated me with great kindness, even if I risk my life, I will protect her child well."

Xu Changrong sighed and put a bottle of pills and a few banknotes into Qingping's hands, "I came in a hurry, I didn't bring much, and I don't know where you can stay when I leave this time. If you find a place to live, find a way to let me know." , I'll see you again then."

Qingping knew that the rest of the days would depend on her to support her. She was the one who followed Fu Ziyu through everyone's world, and knew that people were cold and cold, but the crown prince and Imperial Doctor Xu treated each other sincerely. Unexpectedly, even the crown prince also suffered a big Difficult, in the following days, I really don't know what to do.

"Thank you, Dr. Xu. I will take them to my hometown to settle down first. My parents have died of illness. Fortunately, the house is still being taken care of by the villagers, so there will be no place to live."

"That's good. Now I can only help here. The prince has gone, and the princess is not healthy. I have to go to the East Palace." Xu Changrong left and hurried to the East Palace.

Before he came, he had already heard the news that the Crown Princess Song Yan would not eat, drink, cry, or make trouble, and was sitting still. When he saw Fu Ziyu leaving, he felt uneasy and went to the Prince's Mansion without stopping.

Before they reached the door, they could already hear the heart-piercing cries of the crowd: "The Crown Princess has gone, the Crown Princess has hanged herself."

Xu Changrong was so startled that he fell off his horse and rushed inside regardless of the pain, only to find Li Yan, the eldest grandson of the emperor, kneeling in front of the remains of the prince and princess, his eyes were red, and he had no tears.

"Jinhong?" Xu Changrong called out tentatively.

Li Yan turned a deaf ear, as if he had been cut off from the world, and all voices could not reach his ears.

"Hong'er." Xu Changrong walked over silently, knelt beside him and hugged him into his arms.

No kind of warmth can warm Li Yan's body anymore. He has fallen into the freezing hell. The family that gathered together with laughter and laughter a few days ago is now the only one left.

He feels that he has no relatives anymore. The one in the palace used to be his relatives, but now he has no more warmth. Grandma Huang has been greatly stimulated and can't afford to get sick. Old emperor, he calls him old in his heart The emperor is not even a grandfather. No grandfather would force his son to death.

In this way, the two of them knelt for a whole night. Finally, Xu Changrong saw that the child was almost vented, so he said:

"Hong'er, the lady of the Gu family was born. Mrs. Gu named her Gu Qianli. She was born prematurely, very weak, and very young. General Gu died, and Mrs. Gu also passed away with dystocia. In this world, Like you, she became an orphan without father or mother. But she is even more unfortunate. She doesn't even know if she can survive. If you still remember what you said, cheer up, live well, and take care of General Gu good her."

After hearing Xu Changrong's words, the small body finally moved.

"Where is she?" A dry voice came from Li Yan's throat, "I want to see her."

"The Gu family has been expelled from the capital by the emperor, and they are leaving early this morning. If they want to see each other, it may be too late to rush to the city gate."

"Gao Ning, take me there." There was an unquestionable firmness hidden under her small body.

Gao Ning replied with tears in his eyes: "Yes, the slave will prepare the car immediately."

"No, ride a horse." Li Yan stood up and walked straight to the door, "Take the sun and moon pendant left by my mother before she died."
