Chapter 385 – Shark Bone Rosary
The old Duke of State kowtowed after finishing his speech and lay on the ground without getting up. Even though he was extremely stoic, people knew that he was shedding tears.
Meng Zhimo and Duke Cheng and Second Master Meng all knelt down and cried together, “I beg Your Majesty to make a decision for me.”
His Majesty hurriedly said, “Old Aiqing quickly do not grieve, I know that the old Aiqing for the sake of the countryside and the countryside rarely care about the family. In the family, there is a lot of guilt. If those things really for the rebellious son, I will not let him go.”
And said, “that woman also came? Declare her to enter the hall.”
Cai Yunqing came in and knelt down to kowtow, but could not completely kowtow down.
She was long and charming, charming. When she undid her clothes to reveal the upper half of her body, revealing layers and layers of old and new wounds, and then listened to her personally tell how King Wen had tortured her and those women, everyone in the hall sucked in a breath of cold air, including Jiang Xun.
The Emperor was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood. Pointing at King Wen, he cursed, “You, you, you rebellious son!”
Li Shao knew that the tide had turned and crawled on his knees and cried, “Father, the son has no place to say what he has suffered. Son was not treated well since childhood, was arbitrarily bullied by his brothers, even his daughter is Zhao Yuan Cheng’s seed ……”
“What?”
The Emperor’s second mouthful of old blood got stuck in his throat before he could spit it out.
Everyone except Meng Zhimo was incredulous. King Ying was so angry that he clenched his fists, he wasn’t angry that Zhao Yuancheng had slept with Li Shao’s woman, but how this had been brought to Li Shao’s attention and dragged him down.
His Majesty asked, “Jiao Jiao is not your own daughter, but Zhao Yuancheng’s seed? How do you know?”
He thought of Li Jiao’s small appearance, indeed does not look like his own family …… His eyes again in Li Shao and Li Zhao face shook a turn, do not say, Li Jiao and Li Zhao really have a little bit of hanging like.
Heart can not help but sink.
King Wen added, “Royal father, whether you believe it or not, the son of the court did encounter strange things. During the few days and nights when I was pushed off the platform by the Crown Prince and Li Zhao, I was in a coma. Ichen had a strange dream, and Ichen felt that it must be that the heavens saw that Ichen was pitiful and was giving me a warning.”
The Emperor’s body sat up straight for a moment, “How so?”
King Wen wiped a tear from his eye, and his eyes glanced in the direction of King Ying and King Ping. If you are unlucky yourselves, you will also pull you all down with you. When that incident came out, you guys were even more unlucky than me.
He said, “In my dream, Li Xi told me that Li Jiao is not my daughter, but Zhao Yuan Cheng’s seed.”
King Ping was puzzled, “Second royal brother, lying doesn’t have to be like this. You don’t even know who your daughters belong to, so how would I know.”
King Wen ignored him and continued, “My son also dreamed that Noble Consort Zhao and Li Zhao poisoned Father, who was seriously ill and made Li Zhao the crown prince. Li Xi was angry, escaped and led the troops to attack the capital to force the palace, chopped up Li Zhao, poisoned his son, and forced his father to pass the throne to him ……”
King Ying and King Ping were scared out of their wits and both knelt down. Li Shao this guy’s heart is too black, which can be so bare-mouthed and white-tongued to say nonsense.
One said, “Father, Li Shao borrowed a dream to confuse the public, I dare not ah.”
One said, “Li Shao’s heart can be put to death, he was caught doing evil, but also to throw dirty water on my son, trying to pull my son to die together.”
Meng Zhimo’s heart was in shock. This King Wen really was like Shy, reborn or having a long dream that was extremely real and predictive of the next few years.
He was by no means lying, but it was something that would happen in the future. No wonder King Ping did not offend him, he still hates King Ping because he poisoned him. I don t know what other cards he has ……
Of course the emperor didn’t believe his bullshit and drank, “Adverse son, how dare you lie to me with such bullshit.”
King Wen was busy saying, “The son of the court is even more courageous, but also do not dare to lie to the father emperor. That string of shark bone scented beads on Father’s wrist was a filial gift from Noble Consort Zhao to Father, right?”
The Emperor nodded and said, “Not bad.”
King Wen added, “A small emerald was placed in one of the beads, and that emerald contained something called ‘Blessed Shot’, which is equivalent to a chronic poison, and Father Emperor’s body slowly became unwell, and afterward it became more and more serious.”
King Ying cried out, “Wrongfully accused, wrongfully accused.”
A few people from the Meng family looked at each other, could it be that the Wufan Monk had sent Zhao Hu two small emeralds in the first place, one to poison the old Duke of State and one to poison the Emperor?
King Ping also knew that the Zhao family had asked Fu to use the emeralds to harm the old Duke. The old Duke said that the emerald was sent by Fan Wu monk, too evil, I do not know what other harmful effects they do not know, has let people buried into the mountains.
Li Zhao courage is also too big, actually dare to use another one to harm the emperor.
King Ping can no longer completely disbelieve what Li Shao said about dreaming. At least he knew about the harmful emerald.
The Emperor reached out to look at the shark bone rosary on his wrist.
It had been given to him by Consort Zhao Shu earlier this year, saying that the Zhao family had purchased it at great expense from a merchant in the country of Temasek.
It was white, smooth, and would glow silver when the sky was dark, emitting an ethereal fragrance at all times. Shark bone is extremely rare and precious, has many benefits for people, long-term wear, can prolong life. At present, the palace only two pieces of shark bone jewelry.
Before he used it, he also specifically let the imperial physician check it.
The emperor knew that the dream was not believable, and felt that it was this rebellious son who must have known that he was going to be unlucky, and wanted to drag the two younger brothers that he hated along with him. However, these words still made his heart diarrhea, frowning at King Ping and King Ying. Especially looking at King Ying, he couldn’t help but bring some disgust.
He said, ”Adverse son, do you take me for a fool? Hmph, taking about dreaming. I said that I had a dream yesterday that I dreamt of the pilgrimage of all nations tomorrow, can it be taken seriously? Also, what is the ‘Blessed Shot’, this is the first time I’ve heard of it.”
King Wen said, “The expression ‘blessed shot’ was said by Li Zhenbao, oh, I mean she said it in her dream. It says that ‘Foo Shot’ can’t be seen or touched, but it’s worse than poison.”
“Blessed Shot” was indeed what Li Zhenbao said. A few days before he was poisoned to death in his previous life, he heard that the reason why the Emperor was seriously ill was that the shark bone string that Noble Consort Zhao had honored the Emperor with had an emerald with “Fukushima” in it, and that the emerald was a gift from a monk in Ubangsa.
The king of Yong did not expect these brothers infighting, but pulled his own daughter in. Busy said, “my family Bao’er door does not go out two doors, where know what ‘lucky shot’. What is a ‘lucky shot’?”
King Ying shouted again, “Father, innocent ah, Li Shao red mouth white teeth say nonsense. I ask Father Emperor to have someone smash open the shark bone rosary beads to right the name of my son and mother consort.”
King Wen also said, “Please Father Emperor let someone smash open the shark bone rosary to set the record straight.”
Everyone looked at the Emperor’s shark bone rosary, hoping to smash it open to see if there were any emeralds.
The emperor removed the rosary and threw it to the eunuch, “Have someone smash it open.”
The eunuch let someone go to the back of the hall to get an axe and pointed to Jiang Xun.
Jiang Xun over, put the rosary on a large stone, with an axe.
Smashed one, nothing in it.
