Comprehensive film and television: Make trouble before lying down

Just as the palace banquet began, Prince Guo, dressed in military uniform and leading the city defense troops, surrounded several mansions in the capital.

"Pah pah pah...Open the door."

Soon, an impatient voice rang out from inside: "Who is it? Someone's visiting on New Year's Eve? You're really asking for your own death."

The doorman cursed and opened the door a crack.

Then, they were pushed open with great force, and the city defense army forcefully broke into the mansion, gathering all the people in the mansion in the hall. Other guards began to collect items from each room.

"What are you doing? Who sent you here?"

"Stop... Stop now! Do you know whose territory you are standing on now?"

"Behind this official is the Empress Dowager, how dare you be so rude!"

Shouting and cursing continued one after another. When the cursing became harsh, the city defense army would go up and give a few kicks without mercy, and then the place would stop!

At this time, Prince Guo, dressed in military uniform, was standing in the middle of the yard.

He looked at the items collected from each room with a serious expression and then registered them in the book.

In this way, Prince Guo walked from one house to another with an expressionless face.

At the palace banquet, the empress dowager looked at the emperor with a grim expression, feeling somewhat smug. She feigned slight anger and said, "This is too outrageous. Look at what the palace banquet is like today."

Yinzhen's eyes were gloomy, and he was on the verge of anger: "What the Empress said is true, it is indeed outrageous."

The empress dowager turned her head and observed Yinzhen's expression, and saw that it was still the same as before, without any change.

Something feels wrong. Given the emperor's temper, he shouldn't just say one sentence. Shouldn't he express something at this time?

Yinzhen also noticed the empress dowager's inquiring look and said soothingly, "Don't worry, Empress Dowager, I will not tolerate it."

The Empress Dowager turned back to soothe her, saying, "After all, Concubine Ning is young and inexperienced. She only needs to be taught a little more, and the Emperor shouldn't be too harsh on her."

Seeing that the Emperor did not respond, the Empress Dowager could only continue, "There should be someone in charge of this palace. If you think Concubine Ning is a good person, it wouldn't be too late to let her study for two years. What do you think?"

Yinzhen nodded and said, "This Concubine Ning is indeed a little inexperienced. I will find her a nanny to teach her well. Thank you, Empress Dowager, for your concern."

Seeing that the Emperor had not mentioned Yixiu, the Empress Dowager could only speak again: "The Empress has been ill for some time. The hidden truth has inevitably caused speculation from the outside world. The Emperor..."

Yinzhen would look outside from time to time, which aroused the Queen Mother's curiosity: "Emperor, why didn't Prince Guo come today?"

Yinzhen glanced at the Queen Mother and collected his thoughts: "I sent him to do something, he will be here later!"

The empress dowager saw that the emperor was really boring. He only answered one question at a time and never mentioned Yixiu's affairs. She could only wait for an opportunity.

As the banquet slowly came to an end, Prince Guo finally appeared. After he nodded, Yinzhen finally showed his first smile of the day.

As a result, his mood became high and he stood up on his own initiative, picked up the wine glass in front of him, and said to everyone his belated New Year's Eve greetings.

"This is the second New Year's Eve since I ascended the throne. On the first one, my general won a battle," he said, looking at Nian Shilan.

Nian Shilan immediately responded with a charming smile.

Yinzhen withdrew his gaze and continued, "The Imperial Hospital has developed a method to prevent smallpox.

This year, I am equally happy. I have always hated corrupt officials, the parasites of the Qing Dynasty. I will show no mercy to those who embezzle money..."

When Yinzhen stood up to speak, everyone stood up, raised their wine glasses, and waited for the emperor to finish speaking.

Shen Meizhuang was also there, but her hand holding the wine glass was shaking a little.

Just now, the figure of Prince Guo appeared outside the palace, but behind Prince Guo, she saw Jianqiu with a ferocious smile.

Why was she here? What was she doing? I had a feeling things weren't that simple. Jianqiu wouldn't just show up for a moment.

Yinzhen said in a loud voice, "Come on, my dear ministers, raise your glasses. I am very happy today, so I will drink first as a token of my respect."

He tilted his head back and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Shen Meizhuang raised the cup. Should she drink... or not? What should she do?

There was a voice in her head that kept telling her, don’t drink, don’t drink, if you drink it you’re done.

But the people around her not only drank the drinks in their glasses, but also sat down one after another, leaving her standing there.

Everyone present turned their eyes to her, and among them, the most proud one was Nian Shilan.

The emperor just mentioned her brother and praised him.

Looking at the smug face of the Queen Mother, which was about to be torn apart, how could she not be happy?

After everyone raised their glasses together, Nian Shilan wanted to toast alone, so she sat down and then stood up again.

But he saw Shen Meizhuang still holding the glass of wine without drinking it or moving, just standing there stiffly.

Yinzhen asked doubtfully, "What happened to my beloved concubine?"

Shen Meizhuang's hand trembled and the wine immediately spilled on her hand. How should she answer?

Since I have doubts, I can't drink it, but how can I find an excuse to avoid it?

"I just saw a trace of powder on the cup, but it disappeared as soon as the wine was shaken. I..."

"Ah..." As she spoke, Nian Shilan's face showed pain and the wine glass in her hand fell to the ground.

The sudden scream startled everyone and they all looked towards her. They saw her clutching her chest tightly and spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"Empress, what's wrong with you? Empress...Imperial Physician...Call the imperial physician quickly," Songzhi cried out in shock.

Everyone present was frightened and checked their bodies.

Yinzhen saw the room beginning to panic and immediately shouted, "No one is allowed to move."

A group of royal guards rushed into the hall and took control of the situation.

Yinzhen walked towards Nian Shilan, seeing that she was still spitting blood, and said, "Call the imperial physician and carry her into the side hall, quickly..."

Everyone in the hall was on pins and needles, ready to face the emperor's fatal gaze.

Seeing that Shen Meizhuang was still holding the wine glass and the Sixth Prince behind her was sleeping soundly in the arms of the nanny, he felt relieved.

He took the wine glass from her hand and gently soothed her, "My beloved, take my Sixth Prince to the side hall to rest! I will send people to protect you."

Shen Meizhuang shook her head. No place was safer than being by the emperor's side. Moreover, she felt that this matter was directed at her, so she could not leave.

"Your Majesty, I want to stay here and stay by your side. I won't go anywhere."

Yinzhen's expression was very moved: "Okay, if you don't want to go, then don't go. I'll make a seat for you next to me, and you can stay by my side."

At this time in the Forbidden City, people were being arrested in every palace and hall. Some were at a loss and were taken away silently, while others were unwilling to accept it, shouting loudly, and some even resisted.
