This night disturbed the hearts of countless people. Those ministers were woken up in their sleep and had no idea what was going on. When they hurried to the palace, they were asked by the Yulin Army to wait outside. After His Royal Highness left,

The princes in Da Zong's palace pricked up their ears and sent servants around to inquire about the news. Everyone felt something unusual.

Li Shier was in the palace thinking about how to announce the cause of His Majesty the Emperor's death to the world.

According to the imperial doctor, the emperor died of cardiomyopathy. The empress dowager carefully questioned the palace attendants who followed the emperor, and found out that Wanyan Honglie fell ill while interrogating Peng Sihai. Li Shier had a bad premonition. Could it be that his son heard that

Was she so angry after what happened with Peng Sihai?

Fortunately, Peng Sihai was dead, which made the Empress Dowager relieved. As long as the two palace officials who interrogated Peng Sihai were eliminated, no one would know about it anymore.

Things must be sorted out clearly, so that we can face the doubts of the ministers of the DPRK and the royal family members.

At this time, His Royal Highness the King of England came to the palace under the escort of the Yulin Army. In front of the emperor's palace, he saw all the ministers of the court waiting. The door of the palace was closed tightly. No one knew what was going on inside. Those ministers saw Ying.

His Royal Highness was even more surprised when he came, guessing that something big was going to happen tonight.

It is a serious crime to break into the emperor's palace without the will. Yang Kang didn't know if Wanyan Honglie was dead. It would be terrible if he was not dead. As long as Wanyan Honglie gave the order, he would die here. His Royal Highness the King of England quietly glanced at Huang

Pharmacist Huang Yaoshi nodded invisibly.

Dongxie has always been arrogant and confident in his own methods. He expected that Wanyan Honglie would be dead at this moment. As long as the Emperor of Jin died, they would hold the forged emperor's edict and occupy the rightful position, whether they were ministers or royal family members.

Nothing could stop Yang Kang from ascending to the throne.

Yang Kang received the hint and understood that it was time to try again. Success or failure depended on this.

"Father, my son, Wan Yankang, please see me!"

Yang Kang said loudly, while getting rid of the Yulin army behind him, and walked quickly towards the door of the palace. The sergeant guarding the door wanted to stop His Royal Highness, but unexpectedly His Royal Highness passed between them in a flash.

, came to the door of the dormitory, reached out and pushed open the door.

All the ministers looked towards the gate. They saw the imperial doctor and the empress dowager whispering something. Concubine Rong was lying next to the emperor's dragon bed and crying, while the emperor was lying on the bed without making any sound.

As the palace door suddenly opened, Li Shi'er and the imperial doctor turned to look at each other with the ministers.

"Father!"

His Royal Highness shouted and rushed to Wanyan Honglie's side, holding Wanyan Honglie's hand. It was cold. At this time, Yang Kang really felt relieved. He burst into tears. This cry made the ministers outside know immediately.

What happened? His Majesty the Emperor of the Kingdom of Jin passed away tonight.

Li Shi'er didn't expect that Yang Kang was still alive. She knew from the palace people that Wanyan Honglie sent the Yulin Army to kill the child, but the child was still alive and well. The empress dowager, who was well versed in the palace intrigues, felt the danger. Fortunately, she had something in her hands.

Wanyan Honglie left an edict that this child could not inherit the throne.

Since the ministers already knew that the emperor had passed away, they simply announced the edict to the public to put the child out of his mind.

"My dear ministers, I am sorry to see you, my family is in misfortune, and I am deeply saddened by the loss of my son. The emperor passed away tonight." Li Shier said with a sad look on his face.

After confirming the news from the Empress Dowager, the ministers immediately knelt down on the ground. Some cried bitterly, some cried out to heaven and earth, and some tried to persuade the Empress Dowager to express her condolences. There was a mess in front of the emperor's chamber, and the Yulin Army in charge of guarding also knelt down.

Earth, this is a big event that shocked the Kingdom of Jin.

"Fortunately, the emperor left a legacy before his death, appointing the prince Wan Yanxu as the heir apparent. The Ai family hopes that all the ministers can assist the new emperor with all their heart, so that we can live up to the emperor's high hopes for all the ministers." Li Shi'er said earnestly.

Yang Kang and Huang Yaoshi were suddenly startled. They watched the palace officials bring a copy of the imperial edict to the ministers for circulation. They did not expect that Wanyan Honglie actually left a will. If this edict was recognized by the ministers, there would be no chance of recovery.

Maybe, unless you kill everyone present.

"My lords, Cao Min also has a copy of His Majesty the Emperor's edict here." Huang Yaoshi stood up, took out an imperial edict from his arms, and said loudly, "This is what His Majesty the Emperor gave to Cao Min during the day. The Emperor said that if anything happens to him,

Unfortunately, I asked the common people to make the imperial edict public to the world, but unexpectedly, His Majesty passed away only half a day later."

Li Shi'er didn't expect that another suicide edict appeared, and there was something in Huang Yaoshi's words, which meant that Wanyan Honglie realized that he would die before handing over the suicide edict to this person. The emperor handed over the suicide edict to an unrelated outsider, not to someone in the palace.

The implication is that the emperor's death is related to the people in the palace.

"Who are you? How dare you pretend to be the emperor's edict!" Li Shier scolded.

"Cao Min is a doctor. During the day, he checked the pulse of His Majesty the Emperor and found that His Majesty had been secretly poisoned..."

Before Huang Yaoshi could finish speaking, all the ministers were in an uproar. This man actually said that His Majesty the Emperor was poisoned to death. How could this happen? The ministers all turned their attention to the imperial doctors and asked them to give an explanation. The emperor's bedroom

There was chaos again outside.

Dongxie saw that Li Shi'er had produced Wanyan Honglie's suicide edict, and knew that he could not delay it any longer. The only way to take advantage was to plunge the situation into chaos. He first took out Yang Kang's forged suicide edict, and then said that Wanyan Honglie had been poisoned. At least

You can temporarily divert the attention of the ministers from the heir to the throne.

"Mr. Zhen, the emperor is suffering from heart paralysis, and there is no sign of being poisoned." An imperial doctor responded.

These imperial doctors had exchanged medical skills with Huang Yaoshi during the day and were very convinced of Dongxie's medical skills. But at this time, the cause of death of His Majesty the Emperor was related. The imperial doctors did not want to be accused of dereliction of duty, and they had to clear their names no matter what.

responsibility.

Huang Yaoshi knew better than anyone how Wanyan Honglie died. It was his fault, but he wanted to blame this matter on Li Shier, so that he could prove from the side that Li Shier's posthumous edict was a forgery. Dongxie knew that Yang Kang

In the Angel in White Project, Wanyan Honglie drank poisonous tea for a year. It would be surprising if there was no poison in his body. Those poisonous drugs were brought in by Li Shier from outside the palace. He discovered the problem when he diagnosed Wanyan Honglie's pulse during the day.

"This poison is a slow poison. It is not easy to detect. You will be able to tell if you have tried it." Huang Yaoshi said with certainty, "As long as you pierce the silver needle into your Majesty's skin, you will know whether your Majesty is poisoned."

This is related to the cause of the emperor's death. The ministers are all looking at the empress dowager Li Shi'er. If Li Shi'er blocks it, it is a sign of guilty conscience. If it is really found that the emperor was poisoned to death, then the empress dowager will not be able to escape the involvement. Li Shi'er is a little embarrassed.

She did not poison her son, but she remembered the medicines and refreshments that Peng Sihai asked her to bring into the palace...

This is a conspiracy!

Li Shier looked at Yang Kang and then at Dr. Zhen. She remembered that Peng Sihai was a member of the Beggar Clan, and that the child was friends with a member of the Beggar Clan. In this case, her son might have been poisoned to death by her.

Yes, thinking of this, the Queen Mother felt dizzy and hurriedly put her hands on the table.

She was still worried about other things. If Peng Sihai was really Yang Kang's, then the child must have known about her affair with Peng Sihai. Li Shier felt that the child looked at her with such vicious and deceitful eyes.

She immediately understood that this was the child's revenge for driving the mother and son out of Zhongdu City.

Facing the gazes of all the ministers, Li Shier could only nod his head. After all, it was important to find out the cause of the emperor's death. In full view of everyone, Huang Yaoshi took out a silver needle and inserted it into Wanyan Honglie's arm. He chose the crook of the arm.

When the silver needle was taken out of the blood vessel, it turned black.

The entire emperor's chamber was silent, which showed that His Majesty the Emperor had indeed been poisoned.

Huang Yaoshi is not a chemist and does not understand chemical reactions. However, in ancient times, it was common to use silver needles to test poisons. Yang Kang knew that this method was unscientific, but it was very effective. Since Wanyan Honglie had absorbed a lot of metal elements in his body, after

It is possible for a series of reactions to turn the silver needle black.

Li Shi'er looked at the blackened silver needle and fell down on the chair. Seeing the silver needle change color, Huang Yaoshi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, he was not too sure.

"The common people noticed that these poisons entered His Majesty's body a year ago. According to the imperial doctor at the Imperial Hospital, the Empress Dowager would often bring unfamiliar drugs into the palace from outside the palace." Huang Yaoshi continued to deduce, "If those drugs are still there,

, you can know it only by careful inspection.”

"You, you..." Li Shi'er suddenly stood up, pointed at Yang Kang and Huang Yaoshi, and said angrily, "How dare you frame the Ai family, come and arrest them for the Ai family."

The Yulin Army did not move, and neither did the ministers. At this time, His Royal Highness the King of England stood up, came to Li Shier, and stared at the Empress Dowager of the Kingdom of Jin. Li Shier looked into those dark eyes and felt dizzy.

I heard a voice coming from far away.

"Grandma Huang, it's time for you to take a rest."

Then Li Shi'er felt a little groggy, and under the guidance of Yang Kang, he left the dormitory and walked towards the palace.

When His Royal Highness the King of England came back, the ministers looked at him differently. The imperial edict in Huang Yaoshi's hand was circulated around. There was nothing wrong with the handwriting or the seal, and it was obvious that it was not written just now. This shows that

His Majesty the Emperor has long planned to establish His Royal Highness as Crown Prince, but it was only delayed until now because of the obstruction of the Empress Dowager.

Whether His Highness the King of England was sealed to Chang'an or imprisoned in Dazong Zhengfu, it was a kind of protection given by His Majesty the Emperor to prevent His Highness from being harmed by the Empress Dowager. It can be seen that one thing can be viewed from different angles.

There will be different explanations, and of course some ministers think the matter is strange, but they cannot refute it in the face of the facts.

Yang Kang did a few things next. The first was to summon King Rong to the capital, and then asked the Yulin Army to strictly guard the main palace of the Dazong to prevent the princes from causing trouble, and to control the palace officials who served Wanyan Honglie. These people may know

Inside information, he also had to appease the ministers, attend Wanyan Honglie's funeral, etc.

After finishing all this, His Royal Highness the King of England came out of the emperor's bedroom and looked up at the first ray of dawn in the east. He knew that the night had finally passed. From that day on, he was the emperor of the Kingdom of Jin. (To be completed.)
