palace heart

Chapter 79: Became the Enemy of the Concubines (4)
High candles were lit above the mourning hall, and long-burning lamps were burning, and several benches were placed in the middle below. A thick board was placed on the bench. Auntie knelt aside, burning Mingqian, crying and singing and nagging, elder brother and younger brother kneeling opposite each other in filial piety, servants followed the rules, and all the people in the house were guarding the mourning hall.

The butler was the first to see Shen Mojun who rushed in and was dying of illness. He wiped his old tears and stood up while crying, "Master, you're awake, master has been waiting so hard for you!"

The housekeeper's words disturbed the people present, Second Aunt turned her head to look, and saw Shen Mojun who was standing in mourning while holding the door.

Shen Mojun still didn't believe that this was the truth, he refused everyone's support, and walked towards the corpse step by step with heavy footsteps. When he got to the front, he could already smell the faint stench of the corpse.

But Shen Mojun didn't care, suppressing his tears and the pain in his heart, he reached for the white cloth bit by bit with trembling hands, and finally uncovered it.

Shen Hongde's eyes were closed tightly, his expression was extremely serene, as if he had no regrets, there were faint corpse spots on his familiar and pale face, Shen Mojun couldn't hold back anymore, hot tears rolled out, falling on Shen Hongde's cold face .

"Father...Father..." Shen Mojun knelt on the ground with heavy knees, and the sound of wailing resounded through the palace, making people cry.

Ignoring everyone's dissuasion, and I don't know how long he fell on the ground crying, before Shen Mojun regained his senses. He turned to look at Second Aunt and asked, "What's going on?"

The second aunt had nothing to hide, she made Li Qianlan a concubine, Shen Mojun vomited blood, Shen Hongde left the mansion angrily and only returned in the middle of the night, and at the same time told three major events that happened in the palace one by one.

"Why do you say it was Dad who did it? What is the evidence? What is the evidence?" Emperor Ying was too deceitful, wanting to take back the rights of the Shen family, he really did not hesitate to cut his hands. Huo: "Water can carry a boat and capsize it. What's so great about the emperor, don't forget that the Shen family has made a lot of contributions in this world."

"Father did not do this matter. Master Cao can testify for father. On the night of the accident in the palace, father was at Master Cao's house." Eldest brother Shen Qingming stood up and spoke: "Master Cao came forward to testify for father to clarify, but the emperor's hands There is a relic left by the aunt to my father, and the relic fell on the top of the Dexuan Palace, and the assassin who assassinated the emperor used my unique skill that night - the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves."

"Empress Dowager Gao!" Shen Mojun gritted his teeth: "It must be Empress Dowager Gao. She has wanted to deal with the Shen family for a long time, so she wanted to take this opportunity to blame the Shen family. I will kill her and avenge my father."

"It's not Empress Dowager Gao." Shen Qingming stopped the impulsive Shen Mojun: "Empress Dowager Gao will not risk herself, she can't afford to lose."

"That's the emperor?" Shen Mojun shook off Shen Qingming's hand, and rushed forward. Within two steps, his head became dizzy. His body was too weak.

"It's not the emperor, the emperor doesn't need to do this. The Shen family is good for him now." Shen Qingming began to analyze: "Father gave up three points of military power to save you. As far as the military power is concerned, the Shen family has already You are at a disadvantage. The emperor appointed Li Qianlan as Concubine Shu. Father knows your heart and obviously dare not make any further moves. No one can say for sure if the emperor will embarrass the Shen family in the future, but now it is absolutely unnecessary for him to take the lead. Get rid of father, and let Empress Dowager Gao sit aside and watch the joke."

"It's not the Empress Dowager Gao, it's not the Emperor, who is that, the power of the former Tai Party..." Before the words were said, Shen Mojun was suddenly confused, and he suddenly understood a little.

Could it be her!
Thinking of this, Shen Mojun took two steps back, and it took Shen Qingming's support to stabilize his body.

"Do you know who it is?" Shen Qingming asked, looking closely at Shen Mojun.

Li Qianlan!Could it be Li Qianlan?
If the forces of the ex-prince's party want to enter the palace to handle affairs, they must first find an internal response to cover them, and Li Qianlan is the only person they can find.

If it was really done by the former prince's party, did Li Qianlan do it voluntarily or by force?

Shen Mojun didn't speak, and he rushed out again.

"Where are you going?" Shen Hongde's delay in burying himself in the ground was of course to allow him to meet Shen Mojun for the last time. Now that it's summer, the corpses can't be parked any longer. If Shen Mojun makes trouble here again, then the funeral cannot be done.

"Enter the palace." Shen Mojun wanted to shake but couldn't shake Shen Qingming's big hands like iron pincers.

"What are you going to do in the palace? The emperor's evidence is solid, and father has already left, so what's the use of you going?" Shen Qingming said.

"I want to ask clearly, who actually killed my father." Shen Mojun looked at the dark sky outside, with a stern look in his eyes.

"Who are you going to ask? Li Qianlan?" Shen Mingqing didn't allow him to be careless: "How do you think father died? If it wasn't because of you, would he die? With the power to divide the army, the emperor has the means to control father, and the murderer has the opportunity to frame father. Isn't Li Qianlan harming you enough, now you want to lose father's funeral and go to the palace to find her. "

"Jun'er, the master has already left. You are the son-in-law. From now on, the Shen family will depend on you to support them. If you enter the palace tonight, what will happen to the Shen family? Now that the matter has come to an end, Even if you find Li Qianlan and ask him, so what, master can live, let's talk about the funeral first!" The second aunt finally stopped crying, got up from the ground and persuaded: "Xiaoxiao, change clothes for the young master."

On the day of Shen Hongde's funeral, the weather was gloomy and hot, and Li Qianlan was upset. After casually sipping her breakfast, she began to deal with the poison that Physician Meng sent. She held up half a bowl of dark medicine, but she did not hesitate to drink it down. .

"Brother, don't worry, this small amount of poison is fine. After the matter is done, drink a few antidotes and everything will return to normal." Doctor Meng's eyes were so tangled that water could be squeezed out. Li Qianlan wiped the corners of her mouth Suppressing the irritability in my heart, I smiled and persuaded me to plan.

"Although it is said that a slight poison will not kill you all at once, but if it accumulates over time, once the poison in your body is too much, it will attack your heart. Please think twice before acting." This official serving the upper echelons had to listen, and he also knew Li Qianlan's personality well. If he didn't agree, she could force other imperial physicians to do the same.

Li Qianlan smiled: "Don't be afraid of accumulating over time, it will be over soon, and when the day is over, I won't have to drink these poisons anymore."

"The end? The day of the end? What do you mean?" A pun with too many meanings, Meng Taiyi had to ask further to persuade: "When my mother passed away, although she never left me a last word, but my mother's wish is by no means Let her sister lose her happiness and future in this life for revenge, and she doesn't want her sister to lose her life for revenge. The mother only hopes that her sister can live happily, find her own happiness, and enjoy the life of her children and grandchildren, so that her soul in heaven will be at ease."

Li Qianlan's face sank, but she recovered immediately, stood up and turned her back to Doctor Meng, and said softly: "Of course the end is not my end, brother don't need to think about it. If there is nothing else, brother will step back first, I have to make up and go to greet the Queen Mother. "

Imperial Physician Meng knew Li Qianlan's stubbornness and strength early on. He knew that persuasion would be ineffective, so he had to secretly reduce the dose of poison to a very light one, but no matter how light it was, it could not stand the accumulation of time. Box: "Eunuch Wei came to ask about my sister's health in the morning, and I will report it truthfully. If my guess is correct, the emperor will let my sister sleep with me tonight. If my sister drinks poison, it will be difficult to conceive a dragon seed. My sister is really determined." Are you going to do it again?"
