Chapter 320: Into the Heavenly Prison
An Qinghuan lowered her head and followed the eunuch leading the way into the Palace of Heavenly Purity. As soon as she entered the hall, a strange fragrance filled her nose, causing her to frown slightly.
Her eyes instantly became cold and sharp, and she thought to herself: What is coming has finally come.
The young eunuch led her to the door of the bedroom, and then said in a low voice: "His Majesty is waiting for the Imperial Concubine inside."
An Qinghuan took a deep breath and stepped into the room. When she entered, the eunuch quickly closed the door and showed a sinister smile behind the door.
An Qinghuan walked into the inner room and was shocked by the scene before her. Emperor Wen was so thin that he looked like a skeleton lying on the bed, as if the life was slowly draining from him. After only two weeks of not seeing him, Emperor Wen had become so haggard, as if he had been drained of his vitality by a ghost.
Jin Xiaohe stood up from the chair, holding a sharp knife in her hand, and walked quickly to the bed.
An Qinghuan's pupils contracted instantly, and she saw Jin Xiaohe cut her slender finger without hesitation. Bright red blood gushed out quickly and dripped into Emperor Wen's slightly opened mouth.
An Qinghuan screamed in horror: "What are you doing?"
Jin Xiaohe stared at An Qinghuan with cold eyes and said firmly: "I am saving him! If it weren't for my blood, he would have died long ago!"
An Qinghuan's eyes widened with anger, and he said sternly: "You evil concubine! How dare you harm His Majesty!"
Although An Qinghuan did not have much affection for Emperor Wen, they were husband and wife after all, and she could not watch Emperor Wen being killed by others.
Jin Xiaohe had a cold smile on her lips and said sarcastically, "Do you think this man really loves you? Don't be naive. You are just a substitute for Xiaohe. Hahaha! Look at your eyes. Don't they look like Xiaohe? The reason why he is interested in you is nothing more than because he is attracted by the power of the Duke's Mansion behind you! Don't you agree?"
An Qinghuan's eyes became sharp and firm. She responded without flinching, "No matter what, he is my son's father. So what if he uses the power of the Duke's Mansion? The monarch and his subjects should support and use each other!"
Jin Xiaohe snorted coldly when she heard this: "You really think clearly! It's a pity that a wonderful person like you can be so stupid at times..."
However, at this moment, Emperor Wen suddenly sat up from the bed with a blank look in his eyes, then suddenly jumped off the bed, ran to the door in a panic, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Protect the emperor! The imperial concubine wants to kill me! Someone come quickly!"
Although An Qinghuan was mentally prepared before coming, she did not expect that Emperor Wen had become a puppet!
The guards and imperial guards rushed in immediately after hearing the shouts. Emperor Wen shouted hoarsely, "An Qinghuan is trying to assassinate me! Throw him into the Heavenly Prison now! The Duke's Mansion and his gang are forcing the emperor to abdicate and treason! Throw them into the Heavenly Prison together! Pass on my order to escort Jiangnan Jiedushi An Qingke back to the capital!"
An Qinghuan was shocked, as she never expected Emperor Wen to be so heartless. But she quickly realized that this was not Emperor Wen's original intention, but that he was being controlled by someone.
She knew she couldn't just sit there and wait for death, so she shouted, "Your Majesty, have you been deceived? I am An Qinghuan, and I have no intention of assassinating you!"
However, Emperor Wen ignored her explanation and just looked at her coldly. At this time, the guards on the side had already surrounded An Qinghuan. An Qinghuan was extremely anxious and she didn't know how to deal with this situation.
That night, the situation in the imperial city suddenly changed, and an earth-shaking event was quietly unfolding.
Overnight, the Duke's Mansion, which was once extremely powerful and feared by all, was caught in a net for suspected treason, and all the members of the An family were thrown into prison! The beloved Imperial Noble Consort An Qinghuan actually attempted to assassinate Emperor Wen and wanted to help her son, the Prince of Qin, ascend the throne!
At dawn, this shocking news spread quickly throughout the capital, shocking everyone like a bombshell. People were talking about it in the streets and alleys, and they were shocked by this sudden change.
The general's mansion, the Luo family, however, closed its doors tightly, and the entire family stayed indoors, as if isolated from the world. Luo Lingzhang, one of the core figures in the family, even claimed to be sick and stayed at home, and did not attend the court.
This series of actions makes people wonder whether the Luo family is related to this coup? Which side are they on?
During the morning court session, the prime minister and the crown prince recounted the evil deeds of the An family with great disgust! They listed the crimes of the An family one by one. In addition to treason, the Duke's Mansion also embezzled and accepted bribes, oppressed the people, etc., which caused an uproar in the court.
At this time, Xiao Jinghan stood there expressionlessly, seemingly not caring about all this. The prince glanced at him and sneered in his heart: Humph, do you think you can escape? The next one will be the Luo family and your Wu'an Palace!
He secretly made up his mind to let Xiao Jinghan also taste the feeling of being suppressed. However, Xiao Jinghan did not respond to the prince's gaze, and remained calm and composed.
He knew the prince's thoughts very well, but he didn't want to reveal his attitude easily. In this power struggle, he needed to be more cautious in every move to avoid falling into the other party's trap.
The light in the prison was dim, and there was an air of decay and oppression. The guard who delivered the food carefully took the food from the young eunuch, with a hint of nervousness on his face. He knew that today's meal delivery mission was unusual, because the food would be delivered to the cell where An's family was imprisoned.
Walking around a corner, the guard carried the food into the cell. The cell was dark and damp, with moss crawling on the walls. The air was filled with the smell of rot and blood, making people feel nauseous and suffocated.
An Qingxuan sat in the corner of the cell, his eyes empty and desperate. When he saw the guards coming in, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes, but it quickly dimmed. He knew that the food delivered at this time might mean that they were about to face death.
The guards put the food and a pot of wine on the table. An Qingxuan looked at the food and wine on the table, and a chill surged in his heart.
He understood that His Majesty wanted to exterminate the An family! The An family had always loyally assisted His Majesty, but they did not expect that they would end up like this.
An Qingxuan's hands were shaking as he picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. The burning sensation of the wine made his throat tight. He put down the wine glass, tears blurring his eyes. He thought of his family, were they suffering the same torture at this moment?
"Father, what should we do?" An Qingxuan asked in a low voice.
However, all he got in response was silence and darkness.
The old Duke had already vomited black blood and fell to the ground! An Qingxuan only felt a pain in his chest, and a mouthful of black blood spurted out...
The prince and the prime minister watched coldly from outside the prison door. All the An family members were poisoned to death. He waved his finger at the guards: "Throw them into the mass grave!"
