Chapter 9: The Queen traveled through time and space to become the medicine inducer, and she made the emperor and his gang do it (Chapter 9, Ending)
After Ling Yi learned that his junior sister had been taken away secretly, he immediately cast a suspicious look at his senior brother.
Soon his suspicions were confirmed by a mysterious note.
Following the instructions on the note, he finally found his junior sister in a secret room under a rockery.
"Junior sister, let's leave here quickly, otherwise my senior brother's people will be here soon."
Fortunately, his junior sister was fine, so Ling Yi pulled her and ran away.
"Brother Ling, are you saying that Brother Ye brought me here? Why did he do that?"
As she followed her senior brother out, Liu Xiangxiang asked with a sad face.
Since she was kidnapped here yesterday, she actually suspected that it was the Emperor's senior brother who did it.
But apart from someone bringing her food, she had never seen anyone else, and she couldn't get any useful information.
"He probably didn't want to bleed you anymore, and was worried that you would hate and resent him, so he simply used this method to take you away."
Ling Yi made up an excuse, but it was not what he really thought.
It must be that Senior Brother Emperor didn't want to take Junior Sister away with him, and wanted to have her all to himself, so he trapped her here.
But what he didn't know was that what he said might actually be right.
As soon as the two walked out of the rockery, they were surrounded by layers of guards.
"Your Majesty, the reason why the Queen and I were poisoned was all caused by Liu Xiangxiang.
She actually wanted to escape with Ling Yi for fear of being punished.
No wonder the Queen sister was ill for so long and didn’t recover. It must be Ling Yi who did something.”
Concubine Rou, who was standing on the periphery, looked at the couple inside with gritted teeth.
This woman harmed the Queen and Concubine Rong, and she was very happy.
But if she even hurts herself, then her only ending can be death.
"Your Majesty, please make the decision for us concubines!"
Rong Fei's eyes were slightly red, and she couldn't help shedding a tear. She looked at the emperor with a pitiful look.
"You are slandering me. You are talking nonsense. The truth of the matter is not like this at all!"
When Liu Xiangxiang heard her senior brother's two concubines slandering herself and Senior Brother Ling, she instinctively retorted.
"Junior sister, shut up and be careful with your words!"
Ye Zhao was afraid that his junior sister would reveal their plan, so he scolded her harshly.
It's really weird. He clearly brought people here secretly to capture these two people.
He didn't expect that his queen brought all the concubines to appreciate the moon and came here.
Fox Xiaomeng, who has hidden his achievements and fame, stood in the crowd and watched the show silently.
"Brother, please let me and my sister leave safely. Let's part ways in peace."
Ling Yi's heart instantly sank when he saw the murderous intent in his senior brother's eyes.
"Junior brother, it's not that I don't want you and Junior sister to leave.
I must give an explanation to everyone in the harem.
Until the matter is fully investigated, please return to your own residences."
Ye Zhao looked at his fellow junior brothers and sisters with a threatening and warning look.
I hope they have some sense of propriety when it comes to what to say and what not to say.
Knowing that they were outnumbered, Ling Yi quietly gave his junior sister a few words of advice, and the two of them temporarily returned to their own residence.
However, no one knew how Concubine Rong and Concubine Rou entered Zhaohua Palace. Early the next morning, they brought Huo Fentian's poison and prepared to secretly poison Liu Xiangxiang.
Originally, this poison was a chronic poison that could kill people without them noticing, and no one would be able to find it on their bodies.
But as soon as Concubine Rou applied the medicine on Liu Xiangxiang's arm, she rolled on the ground in pain, wailing in agony as if she were being burned by a raging fire.
This scene frightened everyone in Zhaohua Palace, and someone immediately reported the matter to the emperor.
"Hurry up and save my junior sister, or I will chop off all your heads..."
Seeing his junior sister in such pain, Ye Zhao asked the imperial doctors in the palace to save her quickly. In the end, even Ling Yi came but couldn't save her.
Ling Yi could only scream heart-wrenchingly at his junior sister who had turned into ashes.
"Retribution, everything is retribution..."
He was completely desperate, holding a handful of ashes, and kept repeating this sentence.
Soon he was taken away by his senior brother.
Concubine Rong and Concubine Rou were also sent to the cold palace by Ye Zhao.
In addition, they were poisoned by the Fire Phoenix Poria and did not get the antidote in time, so they soon died in the cold palace.
During this period, some very strange things happened. Ye Zhao found that no matter what method he used to kill the queen, he failed in the end.
No one knew where the people he sent went, and even their bodies were not found.
If you can't touch her, you can touch the people in the Duke's Mansion first.
Ye Zhao calculated the time and arranged everything.
Under the pretext of searching for the assassin who had escaped from the palace, they searched the mansions of several major families.
No evidence of treason was found in the Duke's Mansion, but evidence of treason was found in the homes of his trusted confidants, the Minister of Works and the Minister of Justice.
The evidence is conclusive, and it is useless for the emperor to protect them. He can only have them temporarily thrown into prison.
When the court went to court the next day, everyone was talking about this matter.
Before everyone could finish discussing, an unkempt man suddenly flew into the hall.
This person is Ling Yi, who lost his beloved. He came here under the hypnosis of Hu Xiaomeng.
Tell everyone everything about how the emperor designed the Luo family's second daughter to marry him.
Including drugging her and taking her blood to save his junior sister Liu Xiangxiang.
After success, he planned to take her life, frame the Duke's Mansion and Prince Xiao's Mansion, and so on.
When everyone heard this shocking secret, their faces changed drastically, fearing that they would be silenced.
But when I thought about how many officials were here and we all died together, I wasn't so scared anymore.
"My junior brother went crazy a few days ago. Come, quickly drag him away!"
Although Ye Zhao had called the guards several times, they all stood there as if they were deaf.
Only after Ling Yi had said everything he wanted to say did the guards rush in with swords and fight with him in the hall.
In the end, Ling Yi was hacked to death by a flurry of swords. The ministers in the hall watched this scene with lingering fear.
After the emperor dismissed the court, everyone returned to their own homes with different thoughts in their minds.
Everything that happened in the hall today threw a heavy stone into everyone's already restless hearts.
What was even more shocking was yet to come. It was said that a fire similar to the red lotus fire broke out in the emperor's bedroom that night.
No matter how hard everyone in the palace tried to put out the fire, it could not be put out until the fire had completely burned down the emperor's bedroom.
Ye Zhao didn't know why his palace suddenly caught fire, but fortunately the secret guards took him away in time.
But the palace was on fire, so he had to choose another place to live. Unexpectedly, the place where he lived also caught fire even in broad daylight.
The concubines who originally thought they had a chance to be favored by the emperor wanted to pretend that they had infectious diseases and stay away from the emperor.
"Find Master Jinghui here for me and have him lead people to perform a ritual here."
Even the people at the Imperial Observatory couldn't figure out what was going on. Ye Zhao thought of the eminent monk from Lingyin Temple and quickly sent someone to invite him.
However, I heard that Master Jinghui has gone on a long journey, and the monks don’t know when he will return.
This statement became known to everyone, and everyone speculated that the emperor's luck had run out, so the master did not want to get involved in this mess and avoided him.
The emperor, who refused to believe in evil, had no choice but to spend the night in the palaces of other concubines. He first went to the queen's palace, and the next day he found that his hair was burnt.
Then the names of other beauties and noble ladies were turned over, and this time even the palace was on fire.
Those beauties and nobles looked at their residences with miserable expressions. If this continued, they would have to live in the cold palace.
Unexpectedly, there were people competing with them for the cold palace, and the emperor also came up with this good idea.
The cold palace is so desolate, it won’t catch fire again, right?
However, it was so strange that the emperor stayed in the cold palace that night, and a raging fire broke out in the middle of the night.
The palace servants were very experienced. They all knew that water could not put out the fire, so they gave up the urge to put out the fire.
In this way, fire would break out wherever the emperor went in the entire palace, and everyone wished they would never get close to him again.
Combined with the rumors outside, everyone felt that this was a warning from God, suggesting that the throne he had seized should be returned to the Xiao family.
Soon on a moonlit night, the emperor, who was sleeping in the pavilion, discovered that the pavilion was on fire and jumped into the lake in panic.
He was not rescued until the fire was out, but he was already dead by then.
A country cannot be without a ruler for a day, so Prince Xiao ascended the throne and became the emperor of Ying Kingdom.
Under his wise governance, the country prospered, the people lived a rich life, and the people welcomed their wise ruler.
Hu Xiaomeng, the former queen, changed her identity and left the palace to return to the Duke's Mansion after the new king ascended the throne.
Sometimes he would stay with his elders in the Duke's Mansion, sometimes he would go to the border to visit his eldest brother, and occasionally he would go to the Prince's Mansion to see his sister who had become the Crown Princess.
After the elders in the Duke's Mansion passed away, she left a farewell letter to her brothers and sisters and went traveling around the world alone.
Of course, at this time she had already gone to another world to continue her mission.
