Chapter Ninety-Five: Paying Off the Favor
De'an Palace
"Your Highness, your arrangements have been made. The staff stepped forward and whispered in Lie Wuxue's ear, "The beauties who were sent to the palace have added that flavor to Your Majesty's medicinal diet, and soon Your Majesty will be delirious and obedient to you." ”
"Take your time, don't be too big, don't let people find out. Lie Wuxue sneered, "Remember, don't let anyone catch the handle. Jiuchen Prince Yeshu is a lesson from the past. ”
"Your Highness, rest assured. The staff laughed cunningly.
"By the way, I'll ask you to make an appointment, do you have a reply?" asked Lie Wuxue.
"Back to Your Highness, the appointment has arrived, and the man said, see you at the Chengnan Renhe medicine shop tonight. The staff said.
"Great. Lie Wuxue looked very excited, "Disguise yourself, prepare the carriage, and go to Renhe Pharmacy." ”
"Yes, Your Highness. The staff said.
......
The night breeze was cool, and a full golden moon hung in the dark night sky.
On the street, the leaves and petals reflect the clear moonlight, and the stars are dotted, gently fluttering, dancing with the wind.
The carriage slowly stopped in front of Renhe Pharmacy, and two people got out of the car, they were dressed in night clothes, covering their faces with masks, and they looked mysterious.
One of them was Lie Wuxue, and the other was his cronies. The two walked straight into the pharmacy, and the shopkeeper of the pharmacy glanced at them, and said lightly, "The store is closed, please go back to the two sons." ”
"Wait. Lie Wuxue stretched out his five fingers and interrupted the shopkeeper. "Freedom goes, righteousness goes, life and death go hand in hand. ”
The shopkeeper glanced at Lie Wuxue, his expression was a little weird, and after a while, he nodded to Lie Wuxue and said to him, "Follow me." ”
Lie Wuxue smiled slightly, he followed the shopkeeper to the secret dark room underground, only to see two people in white robes standing there with their hands behind their backs, and the shopkeeper stepped forward and saluted, "Elder, people have arrived." ”
The two of them turned around, Lie Wuxue's face changed, and he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "Sure enough, it's Elder, you are here in person, Lie Wuxue is honored." ”
"King De'an is serious. The middle-aged man's voice was deep, "This is a promise from the temple to Your Excellency. ”
"Elder Qingzhu really did what he said, and he was impressed. After finishing speaking, Lie Wuxue looked at the white-robed elder beside Qingzhu again, and asked in a hesitant tone, "I don't know who this elder is..."
"This is Yu Yu, the Fourth Elder of the Temple, who is in charge of the assassination. Qingzhu said lightly, "Maybe this time you need to fulfill your promise." ”
"Then please leave it to Elder Yuyu. Lie Wuxue greeted him with a smile.
Yu Yu nodded, his face expressionless.
Lie Wuxue went straight to the topic, he glanced at the staff next to him, and the staff understood, took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Lie Wuxue, who handed the letter to Qingzhu.
"I invited two elders this time, and I hope that they will help me in the next small favor. Lie Wuxue smiled, "Just send this letter to the Prince's Mansion secretly, but it must be fast, preferably tonight." ”
Qingzhu glanced at the cover of the letter, and handed it to Yu Yu. Yu Yu nodded expressionlessly, "I know, I will instruct my disciples to do it." ”
"There are two elders, and the kindness of the temple will be remembered for eternity. ”
Qingzhu bowed slightly, "The first lord has inherited the grace of your ancestors, and this time the right should be returned, and in the future, the bridge will return to the bridge and the road will return, and Your Excellency will have no entanglement with the temple." ”
"Yes. Lie Wuxue smiled, "But I want to ask the temple to take care of it more in the future." ”
"Naturally. Qingzhu said, "It's not too early, King De'an, please go back." ”
"I said goodbye under the next. Lie Wuxue flicked his hand, turned around and left with the shopkeeper.
After Lie Wuxue left, Yu Yu opened his mouth and said to Qingzhu, "The Lord is also in Beixuan now, should I inform the Lord of this matter?" ”
"Not necessarily. Qingzhu said, "This matter is a favor promised by the Lord, and there is no need to inform the Lord, lest the Lord have other plans." ”
......
As soon as Lie Wuxue arrived at the De'an Mansion in a carriage, his subordinates rushed to report back. "Your Highness, the temple has replied that the matter has been done. ”
"Yes! Lie Wuxue was very happy, "Turn the carriage and enter the palace immediately." ”
......
At this time
Inside the Royal Palace
Emperor Zhaolie's huge body was lying on the couch, surrounded by beautiful women. The attendant handed over the wine to the country to pay tribute, and Emperor Zhaolie took the wine glass and drank it slowly, his posture was very relaxed.
"Your Majesty, are you still comfortable?" a beautiful woman gently pressed Emperor Zhaolie's shoulders and asked Emperor Zhaolie in a snorting voice.
"Comfortable, of course comfortable. Emperor Zhaolie smiled, his eyebrows flattened, and he was extremely relaxed.
"The concubine heard that on the emperor's birthday today, someone was disappointed and angered the emperor. "A beautiful woman tentatively pretended to be inadvertently to Emperor Zhaolie.
"Huh?" Emperor Zhaolie raised his eyebrows, "It's just that the crown prince's prestige among the people has increased, overshadowing me, and I see that he has bad intentions..."
"Then Your Majesty, you should be more careful. The other beauty leaned down close to Emperor Zhaolie, and her tone was soft as rain.
Emperor Zhaolie just smiled and didn't say much.
At this time, a eunuch's voice came from outside the curtain tent, "Your Majesty, the fourth prince asks to see you." ”
"Hmm. Emperor Zhaolie snorted, "Let him in." ”
"Yes. The eunuch replied.
"Stand down. Emperor Zhaolie waved his hand, and the group of beauties got dressed and quickly retreated.
Lie Wuxue walked in from outside the tent, and he bowed to Emperor Zhaolie, "See my father." ”
"It's so late, what are you doing here?" there was a hint of impatience in Emperor Zhaolie's tone.
"Uh... The sons and daughters are here to report something important. Lie Wuxue said, "Father, just now the Shadow Guard found out that there was a secret letter sent into the East Palace, and after the Shadow Guard's investigation, it was found that the secret letter was most likely sent by the Red Flag Crusader Headquarters. ”
"Erchen boldly guessed that the prince contacted the Red Banner Crusaders so late, I'm afraid..."
Emperor Zhaolie snorted coldly, "Really, I want to see if he has the guts!"
"Spread my will, send the Imperial Forest Army to surround the East Palace, and carefully search me inside and out to see if there is any such thing. If it really happens, you don't have to go back to me, and you will immediately put the prince in prison!"
"Yes, Father. Father is wise. Lie Wuxue smiled slightly, there was a kind of inexplicable happiness after the treacherous plan succeeded.
"This time, let's see how you escape. Lie Wuxue said coldly in his heart.
