at night.

The cold temple is silent, cold and shabby everywhere.

Several dark shadows flew past the roof, silent and unnoticed.

In the nunnery hall, the smoke from the incense burner rose faintly, full of elegant sandalwood smell. In the middle, there was a woman kneeling in coarse linen clothes. She was very simple, but her back was straight and her body exuded pride.

She held the rosary in her hand, turned it slowly, closed her eyes, as if she were closing her eyes.

There was a slight creak. There was no wind, but the door of the nunnery opened.

The woman stopped turning the rosary beads and slowly opened her eyes. Although she did, she didn't turn her head to look. It seemed that she knew that someone had broken into the nunnery.

The second prince strode in and looked at the woman kneeling on the futon with a sneer, "Oh, the dignified imperial concubine Wu, who would wear folk coarse linen clothes and spend her whole life here."

The woman is Empress Wu.

He was arrogant for a while and controlled the power of the harem. His status was comparable to that of the queen, but he took a wrong step, which led to the exposure of the evil things he had done before. He was demoted from the palace and repaired in the temple.

After hearing this, Empress Wu's face didn't change much, and her face was expressionless. She continued to turn the rosary on her hand.

The second prince walked over and looked at imperial concubine Wu.

Imperial concubine Wu raised her eyes. "What's the matter with your Highness's late night visit? It should not be idle and flustered. Come to see the despondent appearance of the palace?"

Even though she was demoted from the palace, Empress Wu still had an amazing momentum, and her breath did not weaken at all.

The second prince smiled faintly, "it seems that the imperial concubine and empress live here fairly comfortably."

Wu Guifei didn't look at him. She turned the rosary in her hand and said quietly, "there's nothing comfortable or uncomfortable. Three meals a day, simple meals, and there's no difference between the days in the nunnery and the imperial palace."

"Oh, really? The imperial concubine and empress have been chanting Buddhism for some time, and they have become pure hearted and have few desires..."

The second prince stared at Wu Guifei and said in a cold voice, "what about the fourth emperor's younger brother? Does the empress see the death of the fourth emperor's younger brother?"

At the moment of hearing this sentence, Princess Wu stopped the rosary on her hand, and her face suddenly changed.

His body was stiff and his hands could not help trembling.

The second prince looked at Wu Guifei's reaction, saw her pale face and hooked her lips.

Empress Wu clenched her other hand tightly. Her fingernails were almost embedded in her palm. She suppressed her inner fluctuations with pain and finally pressed it down. "What are the second prince doing today? Are you gossiping?"

"Of course not." the second prince shook his head, "do you know how the fourth emperor died?"

Imperial concubine Wu: "

She clutched the beads tightly. The round beads hurt her palm, but she didn't feel the pain at all.

"The fourth emperor's younger brother was forced to death."

The second prince opened his mouth lightly.

Empress Wu suddenly raised her head, and a cold light flashed in her eyes, but she quickly mocked herself and hooked the corner of her mouth. It's all over. What's the use of mentioning it now? She's no longer the powerful martial imperial concubine.

Now he is locked up in this cold temple until his old death.

It's all useless.

The light in the eyes of imperial concubine Wu faded a little, like a candle that was about to go out. The only light went out as early as the day when Hua died.

The second prince took a step closer and said in a low voice, "the fourth emperor's younger brother was forced to death by Ning LUOQI. Ning LUOQI is the eldest prince. Now he is granted the title of King Jin and controls the power of the court."

"Those ministers who once supported the fourth emperor's younger brother have defected to take refuge in him."

The second prince narrowed his eyes and his voice was low and cold.

Empress Wu's face changed and changed, her shoulders trembled.

After a while, she raised her face and looked coldly at the second prince, "what do you mean by coming here now?"

The second prince hooked his lips and smiled coldly, "I want to cooperate with the imperial concubine."

"Cooperation?"

Imperial concubine Wu thought it funny, "ha ha, your highness, I'm afraid I've found the wrong person. Now I'm demoted to this cold temple for Qingxiu. Even if I die here, the emperor won't blink..."

Once all the forces have dispersed. Now she is an ordinary woman.

The second prince's eyes were full of conspiracy and said faintly, "only the imperial concubine and empress can do this."

"Doesn't the empress want to avenge the fourth emperor's younger brother? Ning LUOQI forced the fourth emperor's younger brother to death and occupied the power of the fourth Prince... Doesn't the empress have any hatred in her heart?"

“……”

Empress Wu's face was twisted and her eyes were cold.

How can she not hate.

That's her only son, her flesh and blood! But he died in the palace!

When she got the news, she felt that the sky had collapsed and felt powerless. She couldn't even go to see her son's bones.

Thinking of this, imperial concubine Wu felt pain in her heart and felt it in her bones. This missing and guilt turned into hatred and was transferred to Ning LUOQI's head. If it had not been for ninlo VII, her son would not have died.

After a while, Empress Wu trembled and said coldly, "what do you want me to do?"

As long as you can avenge your son.

She is willing to let her go to hell.

The second prince narrowed his eyes. His long planned chess pieces finally came in handy. He has been waiting for this day for a long time.

"What the imperial concubine wants to do is very simple. Just... Do it." he said the plan. Imperial concubine Wu's face was gloomy and nodded, "OK, just follow your way!"

……

At the same time, Tao Qiming was distressed.

Jiang Jingshu frowned. "The medicine guide must be hidden in the heart nourishing hall. How can I find it?" the imperial palace is not whose backyard. Besides, the heart nourishing hall is the place where the emperor can rest assured. Breaking in to find it without authorization will arouse suspicion.

It is likely to be misunderstood as a conspiracy, and it may be arrested and convicted.

Jiang Jingshu looks at Ning LUOQI.

Ning LUOQI's face was thoughtful and he was also looking for a way to induce medicine.

"This matter needs the help of father-in-law Fu. Father-in-law Fu serves his father all the year round. He knows everything about the heart nourishing hall. With his help, he can quickly find the medicine guide."

"How can I persuade father-in-law Fu to help?" Jiang Jingshu asked.

Father-in-law Fu is a serious man. He never helps others privately. It's not easy to ask father-in-law Fu for help.

Ning LUOQI looked at the incense and said, "just use this."

The next day.

Ningluo seven went into the palace and secretly made an appointment with father-in-law Fu.

Father Fu hurried over, wiped the sweat on his forehead and said, "Your Highness, how's the incense investigation? Your majesty has nightmares every day these days..."

Father-in-law Fu can't tell, but the emperor seems to have changed during this period of time.

Ningluo seven's face was cold and nodded slightly, "I found it out."

"Is it really the problem of incense?" father Fu's face changed greatly. "But the old slave often smells the incense every day. Why don't he have nightmares?"

"Incense contains poison, but if you want to poison your hair, you need a medicine guide. This medicine guide should be next to your father."

"What?"

Father Fu's eyes were wide open and he couldn't believe it.

"Father-in-law Fu, I still need your help. I need to find the medicine guide around my father to make the antidote." Ning LUOQI said calmly.

Father-in-law Fu whispered in his heart. Although he asked Jin Wang, he still had some doubts in his heart.

Incense is lit in the heart nourishing hall. So many maids and servants have no problem. Why is it only your majesty? Whether the incense is poisonous still needs to be investigated

Father Fu is dubious.

Ning LUOQI saw father Fu's mind, took out a small bottle and handed it over, "the incense is not ordinary poison, colorless and tasteless. Ordinary people can't find it out, even the imperial doctor can't see it."

"This......" father Fu hesitated.

"If father-in-law Fu believes in the king, take this bottle of antidote and you will know the wrong power of incense."

What is contained in the porcelain vase is the antidote made by Tao Qiming, but it is not an antidote to the poison, but a temporary antidote. Even if it is taken by the emperor, it will not work.

Father Fu took the porcelain vase and shook it twice. It seemed that there were several pills in it.

Father Fu was silent for a while. He couldn't make up his mind.

Finally, open the porcelain bottle, pour out a pill and swallow it.

Then he looked at Ning Luo Qi, "can you detect that the incense is wrong?"

"Yes." Ning LUOQI nodded. "This is the antidote made by the miracle doctor temporarily. He is sensitive to toxicity. Father Fu should be able to detect the difference of incense now."

"OK." father-in-law Fu replied.

He didn't stay much and turned back to the heart nourishing hall.

Walk into the heart nourishing hall.

A smell of sandalwood came to my face. This is the incense sent by the second prince. It was asked from the temple. It is an ordinary smell of incense.

But I don't know what happened. Father Fu felt an unspeakable nausea at the moment he heard it.

"What's going on?"

Father-in-law Fu was shocked and took two steps back. He almost tripped over the threshold.

What a smell

It's subconsciously disgusting and disgusting.

Father-in-law Fu's eyes fell on the incense burner not far away. Looking at the misty green smoke, he seemed to see the twisting green snake. His face turned white and took a step back.

"Cough..." the emperor coughed twice, because he didn't rest well at night, his face was haggard, and his eyes had thick black circles.

"Ford," cried the emperor.

Father-in-law Fu's face was ugly at the moment. When he heard the emperor's cry, he replied, "Your Majesty."

But the smell of sandalwood was really strange. He subconsciously felt rejection. Father Fu wanted to turn around and run out.

"Where have you been?" the emperor's eyes fell on father-in-law Fu.

Father Fu's face was ugly and his back was cold. He replied, "the old slave has some stomach discomfort... Maybe he ate something bad yesterday..."

The emperor took back his eyes and asked no more questions.

Father-in-law Fu was surprised and suspicious. Why? Obviously, it's ordinary sandalwood. Why does he feel sick now... Is it because of the medicine he just took?

His highness King Jin said it was an antidote.

Father-in-law Fu's heart is tangled in every way. He doesn't know whether to trust King Jin. One side is king Jin and the other is the second prince.

The incense was sent by the second prince. If there is any problem

The Duke of fortune twisted his heart into a ball and couldn't think of a reason. However, when he waited for the emperor to rest, he secretly went to the censer and checked it carefully.
