Zi Yao's words, everyone in the tunnel was stunned, they wanted to rush up, but they saw Murong Zhu, who was being checked and balanced by Zi Yao, paused one by one.

Zi Yao smiled slightly, pinched Murong Zhu's neck, and slowly turned to her, Zi Yao said in an indifferent voice unique to Guiguzi.

"Alright, it's time for the game to end, go back to Beijing with Hongu!"

The dead soldiers in front of Murong Zhu wanted to rush forward, Zi Yao waved a few silver needles and shot out, these people fell to the ground in response, it was not Zi Yao who was ruthless, these dead soldiers could not be moved, and it became a disaster to keep them.

Murong Zhu's voice trembled, and she looked at Zi Yao with round eyes.

"You~ That Guiguzi is also you? everything is your calculation?"

Zi Yao nodded, "Yes, not only that, but your underground silver vault was also emptied by the main palace, and the dragon robe and jade seal are already on the way back to Beijing at the moment." ”

Murong Zhu's eyes were straight, she knew that the Tan family was gone, and she couldn't escape a dead word after all, and she was afraid that she would die even more ugly when she returned to Beijing.

Thinking of this, Murong Zhu's face showed a look of determination, she opened her mouth to bite the poison sac between her teeth, how could Zi Yao give her such an opportunity, she flicked Murong Zhu's cheek with her fingers, and a tooth with the poison sac flew out of her mouth.

Murong Zhu looked at Zi Yao angrily, "You, both mothers and compatriots, don't you allow you to die if I want to?"

"Your life or death, only the mother emperor can decide, the people and soldiers of Balang County and Xijiang County, how many deaths and injuries have been killed and injured by your sisters and the Tan family, how do you need to measure this, can you repay it with your life alone?"

With a wave of his hand, Murong Zhu knocked him unconscious, and withdrew with her towards the road she came from, and returned to the county guard mansion again, and the scene had changed, and the forbidden army guards were heavily guarded everywhere.

Zi Yao's sudden appearance startled several people around, and they hurriedly ran over to investigate, and found that it was Zi Yao who quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Zi Yao waved her wrist, "Get up, where is Lord Fang Xiangyuan?"

"Back to His Highness, Lord Fang is discussing in the main hall of the County Guard's Mansion. ”

Zi Yao let go of Murong Zhu in her hand, "Tie up this person and hand it over to Commander Zuo, she is Murong Zhu, the king of Xichuan." ”

As soon as these words came out, several guards suddenly stood up, quickly got up and tied the unconscious Murong Zhu into zongzi, and several people carried her in the direction of the study.

Zi Yao walked quickly to the hall, Fang Xiangyuan seemed to have a sense, and when he looked up and saw Zi Yao coming back, a smile appeared on his face.

Quickly got up and clenched his fists, "Your Highness is back." ”

Zi Yao nodded, "Murong Zhu has been handed over to Commander Zuo to be in charge of guarding, what are the results of your frontal attack?"

General Fang clasped his fists and saluted: "The last general has just finished counting, and the generals on the list of the Tan family have basically been killed or arrested, but only one deputy general named Tan Guixian has been arrested, and Murong Shan, the king of Hengnan, has just been captured before you come back."

The Yinghua general was cut off by Shen Gongzi and did not end his life, and Shen Gongzi said that he would follow the princess back to Beijing to wait for the dispatch. ”

Zi Yao nodded, "These people and those officials who were detained before will be escorted back to Beijing immediately, and the Commander Zuo will be responsible for escorting, don't build a wooden cage for the prisoner car, feed them all with medicine and fall asleep, and then close the carriage and send it to the capital."

In addition, let General Fang temporarily garrison the southern border, I am afraid that Tan Guixian may have some contact with Nanzhaoguo, if it is related, there is a response, after returning to Beijing, the palace will let the mother emperor summon, if Nanzhaoguo wishes Tan Guixian to take refuge, sanctions will be imposed on him. ”

Fang Xiangyuan nodded, "The minister will arrange it." ”

Shougong also clenched his fists, "The slave will go and prepare the relevant medicine." ”

"Cao Jin and Cheng Wanxia, the waiters of the Ministry of Works, stayed in Xichuan County to supervise the work of the water conservancy project, and the detailed engineering drawings of Lord Cao are also available, if you have any questions, you can send a letter to the palace at any time, and the palace will reply to you as soon as possible. ”

Everyone moved in Zi Yao's arrangement, a metal cage was installed inside the carriage, and the dozen or so carriages needed for half a day had been built, and other matters were carried out at the fastest speed.

Two days later, Zi Yao and Fang Xiangyuan led the team back to Beijing, there was no mighty team, but the forbidden army and the official servants escorted the entire convoy, and it was difficult to see from the appearance that this was a convoy escorting important criminals.

All the way to the horse, it only took five days to arrive in the capital, and before entering the city, I saw that Zhu Xiaoguang, the commander of the forbidden army, had led a team of forbidden troops waiting outside the city gate.

Under Zi Yao's signal, the left commander took those reformed carriages and rushed to the prison with Zhu Xiaoguang.

Zi Yao and Fang Xiangyuan entered the palace to face the saint, and the officials of Gyeonggi Mansion temporarily returned to Gyeonggi Mansion to stand by, and guarded the palace and took all the people from the East Palace back to the East Palace.

*****

Mr. Pang took Ziyao and Fang Xiangyuan to the imperial study.

The empress waited for a long time, and when she saw the two of them enter the door and walked quickly closer, she waved her hand to avoid the two of them from bowing down to the court.

"Come over with the mother emperor, Fang Aiqing also came forward. ”

At this time, it was winter in the capital, and although the outside was covered with a layer of snow, the inside of the house was baked by a charcoal cage and was as warm as spring.

Zi Yao told the empress everything in detail, and when she heard that the empress was already trembling, Zi Yao brought a cup of tea and calmed the empress.

Zi Yao clapped her hands, and Manager Pang carried the huge box that Zi Yao put in front of the door for people to carry in.

"The Mother Emperor is a dragon robe and a jade seal, please see it for yourself. ”

Zi Yao saw that all the subordinates had gone out, so she said leisurely, and when she got closer, she pulled open the lid of the box forcefully, and the empress walked closer with Fang Xiangyuan's support, and the five-clawed dragon robe embroidered with gold silk inside the box was extremely dazzling.

The jade seal next to it that was very similar to the heirloom jade seal placed on his imperial book case, fell into the eyes of the empress, and he grabbed it, and sure enough, the content and form were almost identical, and he could create such a similar thing, where else could there be any other way except for the Tan family's profess.

Throwing the jade seal in the box, he walked up and sat down in front of the imperial book, waving his hand weakly.

"Call Pang Xiangyu in. ”

Before Ziyao summoned her, Pang Xiangyu had already run in upside down, and when she saw the emperor like this, she was numb.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter?"

The empress waved her hand weakly, "With Dali, the Temple Criminal Department and Gyeonggi Mansion, jointly try the cases of rebellion and corruption of Murong Shan, Murong Zhu and the Tan family, you can go and pass on the message!"

Seeing that the empress was angry, how dare he delay, turned around and trotted out of the imperial study, Zi Yao muttered for a moment.

"Mother, this is not the time to be sad, if the two of them did not have the support of the Tan family, they would not be where they are today, now only Tan Guixian of the Tan family is missing, Erchen thinks that he will take this opportunity to summon Nanzhao Guo and order them to help investigate the traces of this person. ”

The empress was pulled out of the extremely sad and indignant mood just now by Zi Yao's words, and patted Zi Yao's arm, she understood that her daughter was afraid that she would be too sad and hurt her body.

"I know, you can rest for a few days, and if there is any problem during the trial of Dali Temple, I will come to you. ”
