My Brother is a Big Shot - Chapter 131

In the previous court, Su Xiang was playing.

“Your Majesty has been on the throne for many years, but there is no child in the harem. This is absolutely not normal!”

In one sentence, Shang Luyuan’s nerves were tense. The two words he has heard the most in recent years are “children”. Even if he dealt with all the imperial physicians who diagnosed the pulse, and did not leak any rumors, the fact that the harem has not come out for so many years is enough to cause suspicion!

If it wasn’t for him having a son and a daughter when he was in the dormitory, I’m afraid his infertility would have been brought to light long ago.

It’s a pity that both of his sons and daughters died shortly after they were born. So he is still empty under his knees.

In the past, he didn’t want to let other people in the harem get pregnant, and only wanted Fu Chuan to give birth to his child. Now he would like to have a life, but he can’t.

Don’t want to let life, and can’t let life, one word, the meaning is very different.

He has regretted it now. He regretted that he should not have given medicine to the harem women. He should have given birth to a few more when he could, and he would not fall into the current situation.

But there is no regret medicine in the world, he can only seek medical treatment secretly in order to cure the disease. It’s a pity that it’s been so long and nothing.

Originally thought that Prime Minister Su was playing for the sake of his heirs this time, but he changed the subject and continued:

“His Majesty still had a son born when he was hiding in the mansion, why did no one hear the happy news when he arrived in the palace? Since it’s not His Majesty’s sake, it must be someone who did it on purpose! When the minister met an expert, he told Wei Chen that there was someone in the palace. The villain is playing havoc and mutilating His Majesty’s heirs. Please also ask His Majesty to thoroughly investigate the harem, find out those who harbor evil intentions, and spread branches and leaves for the big business as soon as possible.”

Shang Liyuan understood as soon as he heard it, this must be something in the harem, waiting for him to find out. And nine times out of ten, it is related to the queen. Otherwise, Su Xianghao would pay attention to the affairs of the harem? They thought he didn’t know about the idea of ​​the latter in private.

Whether this is true or not, it came at the right time, and he was almost unable to withstand the pressure of the court. If at this time a person who harbored evil intentions was found, it would be just a matter of diverting his attention.

So he agreed immediately, and sent his most trusted **** director to be responsible for a thorough investigation.

He also specifically told not to let go of any palace.

Director Wei brought a group of people from Wuyangyang, and when they came to the harem, all the concubines happened to greet the queen.

Therefore, he directly left everyone in the Fengyi Palace and did not allow anyone to enter or leave to facilitate the search.

A clever little **** suggested, “Director Wei, since the Fengyi Palace already knows the news, why not start the search from the Fengyi Palace first? Otherwise, wouldn’t it leave people a chance to destroy the evidence?”

Director Wei glanced at him, “You are right, then start the search from Fengyi Palace.”

But after searching inside and out three times, the Fengyi Palace was clean and there was nothing.

“How is that possible?!” Concubine Shu almost lost her temper.

Yan Shu gave her a cold look, “You seem disappointed that nothing was found in this palace?”

Concubine Shu quickly denied, “Why, how could it be, the concubine is worried about the empress.”

Yan Shu was noncommittal, and said to President Wei, “Since there is nothing here in this palace, then President Wei should go and have a look elsewhere.”

Director Wei took people away, and the others were still in shock, wondering what they were searching for, including Lian Fuqun. Because there was something going on in the palace, His Majesty would always inform her in advance, but this time there was no sign. Could it be that the queen did this?

There is nothing unclean in her own palace, but she also has some secrets of her own. If the queen finds out, it is impossible to guarantee that she will not take the opportunity to cause trouble.

The same is true for other people. Few of the people in the harem have clean hands and feet. Everyone anxiously awaited the results of the search.

Only Concubine Shu is different, she is not worried about what will be found in her palace, because she has already cleaned up in advance. What she is worried about now is why things didn’t develop as planned, there is nothing in the Queen’s Palace, this shouldn’t be!

After half a day, the entire harem was finally searched. Really found a lot of things.

Not to mention poisonous clothing, rouge gouache, utensils, ornaments, etc. The most shocking thing is that there are witch dolls hidden in Concubine Shu’s palace!

If the puppet was used to curse other concubines, it would not be so shocking, but this puppet was actually used to curse His Majesty!

On it is written the date of birth and name of His Majesty, and on the back is written the curse of renunciation and death.

When Director Wei saw it, he felt that the matter was not good, and he did not dare to delay. He hurriedly took it to the former court and presented it to Shang Liyuan.

Shang Luyuan was furious when he saw it, and threw the thing in front of Prime Minister Su, “Su Jingzhi, you are so bold! How dare you curse me to cut off my son and never be a grandson!”

Su Jingzhi arranged everything properly and was waiting for the queen to dismount, but unexpectedly, disaster struck.

Yes, this one was originally planned by Su Xiang. Because the queen had no fault, and her father and brother were both killed in battle, she could not be pulled off the horse casually. There must be a reason not to turn around.

The people under Su Xiang came up with an idea to use witchcraft.

Because Shang Liyuan has been childless, the excuse is also ready-made. Suffice it to say that the queen herself cannot give birth, so she cursed others to be unable to give birth, so that her majesty cut off her children and grandchildren.

This incident, Shang Liyuan knew very well, was planned by Prime Minister Su, but something must have happened, and it didn’t hurt anyone else, instead, it was planned by others and turned against the army.

He knew, but he might as well use it for his own purposes.

At first, he only intended to use this matter to divert the attention of the ministers in the DPRK and China to relieve the pressure of having no children under his knees. So it doesn’t matter who the “criminal” person is. Whether it’s the queen or the concubine Shu, they’re all shields anyway.

Concubine Shu is better.

Because the Yan family has been eliminated, the Su family is the only one, and they consciously have the merit of following the dragon, which has become more and more high-profile in recent years. Now he even dares to interfere in the affairs of his harem!

Oh, do you think he will be at their mercy?

Su Xiang never imagined that he would not lose money by stealing chickens himself, and instead of getting the latter position, he would instead be involved in prosperity and wealth!

Since ancient times, witchcraft has not been tolerated by anyone, especially when it involves cutting off the royal heirs, it is even more difficult to let it go.

So Xiang Su’s family was sentenced to exile, and Concubine Shu was also sent to the cold palace.

However, because he was cursed by Concubine Shu, he was cut off from his sons and grandchildren. This reason can only temporarily relieve the pressure. If you want to completely stabilize the society, you still have to solve this matter fundamentally.

When Prime Minister Su fell, the prime minister’s seat was vacated, and Shang Lianyuan chose his own person to sit on without hesitation.

This person is none other than Lin Wenxiu, Minister of Officials.

In Fengyi Palace, after hearing the news, Yan Shu couldn’t help but chuckle, “At last we have removed the big obstacle of Prime Minister Su, and the next thing will be much smoother.”

In the past three years, they have secretly plotted, and almost all the officials of the six departments have been won over. Either favor, or lure, or grasp the handle. There are also people like Su Xiang, who are impossible to win no matter what, so they can only be replaced.

She was able to complete such an incredible task in such a short period of time, all relying on the system and the information brought by the dark pavilion.

Yan Qing also smiled, “Yes, it’s almost time, you can prepare to do something. I’ll put some pressure on Shang Liyuan, I don’t know if he can bear it.”

“You mean, use that?”

“Yes, that’s what you think.”

Yan Shu smiled. Before she could use it, she had already seen the reaction that Shang Liyuan would have.

In July of the fifth year of Chengyuan, there were continuous heavy rains in the south of the Yangtze River, and floods occurred in many places.

People are displaced and homeless.

When the flood finally receded, someone found a stone as tall as a person by the river.

Six characters in the letter: The emperor has no virtue, and he will be punished by heaven.

For a time, rumors spread among the common people that it was because the emperor was immoral that God only brought down the curse. Floods are divine condemnation.

This is a serious matter, and local officials immediately reported it.

Shang Liyuan was furious and felt that the person who did this could be punished.

But he sneered at the matter of divine condemnation. Just find a strangely shaped stone, engrave words, and pretend to be punished, it is too easy.

However, although they do not believe it, the people cannot be appeased, nor can they allow rumors to spread.

He immediately sent people to relieve the disaster, and killed a few people who were talking about the curse in the street. This method really frightened the people, and everyone dared not spread the matter again.

Although it is no longer shared on the public, the more banned it is in private, the faster it is.

And because of the scourge, another minister raised the issue of the heir. The emperor has no queen, it can be regarded as a curse, which is more convincing than any stone.

Shang Liyuan was in a state of turmoil, and after confirming that he really would not have children, he could only use the method he was most unwilling to use.
