Chapter 132 Chen Xu after waking up
At dawn, the sound of horse hoofbeats suddenly sounded on the deserted streets of Jiankang City. It was the good news from outside the city that the rebellion of King Shiheung had been put down!
When Xiao Mohe entered the city with hundreds of cavalry, he was greeted by the people of Jiankang City who lined the streets and cheered!
The body of King Shihsing was placed in a coffin and transported to Taicheng in a prison cart. Although he was nowhere to be seen, the people in the streets spit a lot of saliva, cursed and cursed endlessly, and there were countless eggs. Vegetable leaves are thrown in it.
This made Chen Zhishen and Chen Zhonghua, who were Ma Rong, couldn't help but feel a sense of pride: It turns out that killing a Shixing King could win the support of so many people. Is this what the people want?
In the Qian's Sleeping Hall in Taicheng, while a group of imperial doctors headed by Yao Boshen were waiting, Chen Xu woke up at a quarter past noon.
Several imperial doctors couldn't help but be ecstatic.
Yao Boshen even sighed secretly: "This little lady's medical skills are really amazing. She says she wakes up at noon, and she really wakes up at noon!"
But when Chen Xu woke up from his sleep, everything had settled.
Xiao Maha ordered people to carry the body of King Shixing in front of the Taiji Hall and report to the emperor: "King Shixing raised private soldiers in the Buddhist temple and colluded with Buddhist monks to assassinate the prince. When he failed, he stationed troops in Dongfu City and raised the rebel flag. Attacking Jiankang, we were ordered by His Majesty the Crown Prince to kill the rebels, and now they have been rehabilitated!"
When Chen Xu woke up, he was still a little confused. For him, he just woke up after a long sleep and already lost a son.
Seeing Chen Shuling's body in front of him, Chen Xu was speechless for a long time, and only echoed in his ears:
"King Shiheung disrupted the government and harmed the people, raised private soldiers, and intended to rebel. Please punish King Shiheung!"
The imperial concubine Peng rushed to the palace with her hair disheveled, fell beside the body of King Shixing and burst into tears.
"Your Majesty, Shu Ling was wronged. Shu Ling died in front of Xie An's tomb. This must be related to Xie Zhen of the Xie family in Chen County. Your Majesty, please find the real culprit and avenge our prince!"
"Come here, pull Concubine Peng down. Peng is unconscious. From today on, she will be confined to Yuqing Palace!"
It was Queen Liu Jingyan who issued the order.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Peng immediately turned her resentful eyes towards Liu Jingyan.
"Your Majesty, I ask myself, I have been sincere to your Majesty all these years. Why has My Majesty been so ruthless as to kill my son?"
"Peng, you are you. King Shixing is King Shixing. The sins committed by King Shixing are angry and resentful. The crimes should be punished according to the law. This has nothing to do with feelings. This Taiji Hall is not the place you should come. Return to you Go to Yuqing Palace!"
"This Tai Chi Hall is not the place where I should come, is it the place where you should come?" Madam Peng suddenly laughed crazily, pointed at Liu Jingyan and cursed, "You have been so good at pretending over the years! What do you mean by adhering to women's ways? , I will never interfere in politics, but you took advantage of His Majesty's critical illness to exercise the power of the Emperor and actually sent the right guard general to hunt down my son. You are so cruel, are you just one step away from being in charge of politics? "
"Shut up!" At this time, Chen Xu finally spoke, but he gave a sharp shout, and then ordered the left and right servants to take Peng down.
"Your Majesty, I am telling the truth. Why don't you punish Mrs. Liu instead of reprimanding my concubine?"
After Peng took him away, Liu Jingyan knelt down.
"If Your Majesty wants to punish me, I will be willing to accept the punishment!"
Chen Xu was shocked when he saw Liu Jingyan's calm and calm expression.
Before he could speak, Yao Boshen ran over and reported to him: "Your Majesty, please do not listen to slander. When Your Majesty was sleeping, it was your Majesty who was undressed and serving medicine in front of the bed. It was also your Majesty who invited a miracle doctor to treat your Majesty. Your Majesty Only then can he wake up.
When King Shixing rebelled, the empress was not afraid of danger. She ordered the prince to take charge and summoned the right guard general to put down the rebellion. The empress also had the interests of the country in mind! "
"Miracle doctor?"
In Yao Boshen's impassioned speech, Chen Xu caught these two words. He vaguely remembered that he seemed to see Xie Yuqing coming to see him in his sleep, but after calling him once, the shadow was gone. Not seeing him, he fell into sleep again.
"Yes, Your Majesty, it is Xiao Jinyu, the miracle doctor who is rumored throughout Jiankang City. It was she who cured Your Majesty!"
Chen Xu was silent in thought, and after a while, he asked Liu Jingyan to stand up and said, "Thank you for your trouble, Queen!"
"It is my duty as a concubine to share your Majesty's worries! The importance of the country lies in your Majesty's virtue!"
"Now that Your Majesty has woken up, I will take my leave!"
After Liu Jingyan finished speaking, he bowed and was about to retreat, but Chen Xu called out: "Wait a minute, did she put forward any conditions for treating me?" Liu Jingyan paused, not hiding anything, and turned around and said He said: "Yes! Your Majesty, please grant me your permission!"
There was no need to explain many things too clearly. She knew that Chen Xu had deep thoughts. If he didn't ask in detail, she wouldn't elaborate. What's more, there were several ministers in the Tai Chi Palace here.
"Okay, go down!"
"Yes, I will retire!"
After Liu Jingyan left, Chen Xu turned his attention to Xiao Mohe, the right-guard general who came to return. Speaking of it, Xiao Mohe could be regarded as a close guard of the emperor, and like left-guard general Fan Yi, he was his confidant.
"Why did you obey the Queen's order to kill King Shiheung?"
"Your Majesty, I believe that when Your Majesty was in critical condition, the Empress ordered the Prince to take charge of the affairs, quell civil strife, eliminate traitors, and protect Jiankang people from war disasters. This is for the sake of the country. As long as it is for the sake of the country of Chen, I am willing. The liver and brain are in disarray!”
These words immediately left Chen Xu speechless. After a long silence, he finally asked Xiao Mohe to step back.
No matter how sad it is, Chen Shuling's death is a foregone conclusion. What needs to be done now is how to convict King Shiheung and how to bury him!
There was another dispute in the court the next day. More than half of the courtiers believed that King Shiheung had committed too many crimes and should be deprived of his title and demoted to a commoner. Only a few ministers wanted to keep his kingship in order to cater to the emperor's wishes. title and royal status.
After several arguments, Chen Xu finally ordered Xiao Mohe to seize all the property embezzled by King Shixing, and rewarded half of the property to Xiao Mohe, and handed the rest to the state treasury, and deprived Chen Shuling of his title. However, Or he was buried in the imperial mausoleum.
Not long after King Shiheung was buried, the noble concubine Peng hanged herself.
After Chen Xu saw Peng's body, he stayed in Yuqing Palace for a whole night without sleeping.
…
But the death of King Shixing has become the most exciting topic in Jiankang City, and some good people wrote it into a storybook and sang it in wine shops and teahouses. In this storybook, Xiao Mohe was responsible for countering the rebellion. Queen Liu is a hero among women, and Queen Liu is a hero among women that everyone respects. Suddenly, Queen Liu Jingyan's reputation soared, and she won the hearts of the people.
But in addition, the queen urgently ordered Xiao Jinyu to enter the palace, and the matter of the miracle doctor's treatment of His Majesty became the most heated topic. Some people who did not know the truth even spread that the miracle doctor had gone to the Yama Palace and snatched it back. His Majesty's fate helped the Queen turn the tide and save Jiankang from danger.
What's more, it is said that the reason why Chen Shuling, the king of Shixing, ended up like this was because he collided with the tomb of Taifu Xie.
"This is called good and evil will eventually be rewarded. King Shiheung did so many bad things that even Taifu Xie couldn't stand it, so the spirit appeared and killed him!"
"Yes, yes, this is also the result of offending the miracle doctor's wife!"
I don't know who said something again, which made the listeners think deeply: It seems to be so! Xiao Yun offended the lady who was a miraculous doctor and ended up crippled. Then King Shixing offended the lady again, so...
"So King Shiheung ended up like this, was it all because of that cheap maid? Was it her?"
It's like winter is approaching in the Xiao Mansion, and the servants are in panic all day long and dare not speak.
For these servants, this is not the first time that Princess Yunyin has lost her temper in the courtyard. Once the princess gets angry, she will easily hurt people and even kill people. Ever since King Shixing started the rebellion, this Xiao There are already many people who have disappeared inexplicably in the mansion.
"Stop talking about it. King Shiheung launched a rebellion and ended up like this. He deserves it. What does it have to do with Ayu? Don't think about everything on her..."
"Xiao Jian, I have to think about this matter. It has only been a short time since King Shixing kidnapped that bitch into the palace, and it has ended like this. If you say it has nothing to do with her, who will believe it? Even the rumors outside say that, This is what happens if you offend that bitch!"
"It was the King of Changsha who found the evidence that King Shixing was raising private soldiers and colluding with Buddhist monks. It was Xie Zhen who admonished the prince to break the law and commit the same crimes as the common people. From beginning to end, Xiao Jinyu was not involved in this matter!"
"Just because she didn't participate doesn't mean she didn't push the situation. This bitch is really good at scheming! Will she plot against me next?"
"No, I can't just sit back and wait for death. I want to strike first to gain the upper hand! I have to strike first to gain the upper hand!"
Princess Yunyin murmured to herself like she was crazy. Xiao Jian felt that this woman was really unreasonable and that even irrelevant things could lead to a causal relationship with her, so he ignored her and left with a roll of his sleeves. .
At this moment, he had no idea that this woman would actually cause trouble by just doing what she said!
