I was about to catch up, but I saw Xie Donglai raise his hand, and dozens of hidden weapons came at me. I was shocked, Tangmen thunderbolt!

I have learned the power of this hidden weapon, I didn't dare to touch its edge, and even retreated sharply, dodging the attack, and the thunderbolt hit the ground, and an explosion sounded dozens of huge craters in the hall.

Seeing that the situation was not good, I rushed out of the Taihe Palace. It's like this, Xie Donglai is already more than ten zhang away, and at this moment I am wearing a eunuch uniform, but I am not afraid, and I even shouted, catch the assassin!

There were a few screams, and dozens of secret guards chased Xie Donglai in the direction of his escape.

Donghua Gate and Taihe Hall were on fire, and there was a mess in the palace, eunuchs and palace maids came out to put out the fire, and even the three thousand forbidden troops guarding the palace were dispatched.

Fortunately, it snowed heavily tonight, and the fire did not spread, and it was quickly brought under control. However, tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

Emperor Zhu Runze learned that the jade seal of the country was stolen, Long Yan was furious, and killed the deputy commander of the forbidden army in charge of guarding on the spot, and summoned the cabinet to the palace overnight.

I returned to the duty division with a few other eunuchs who had come to put out the fire, and the whole department could be heard of needles falling, and the atmosphere was very depressing.

Father-in-law Liu was called over by Mr. Xue to give a lecture, and no one knew who would be unlucky when he came back, but Father-in-law Liu did not come back, it was Father-in-law Tang who came to guard the division, his face was blue, and his legs were weak when he walked.

He said in a trembling voice: From now on, the children's eyes are a little stronger, and they don't know anything about what happened tonight, and they are not allowed to say anything!

Everyone looked at him with doubts on their faces, Tang Gonggong was fair, and Liu Gonggong was beaten to death with a stick.

Everyone gasped, needless to say, if this kind of thing happens in the palace, someone must take responsibility, and no one can get out of it. Tang Gong is fair, everyone is waiting here tonight, and no one is allowed to rest!

All the eunuchs were waiting with their heads bowed in the duty department, and they didn't even dare to breathe.

I analyzed the current situation, Xie Donglai is the military advisor of the Hero League, and the case of kidnapping Xie Junyan was planned by him and the five ghosts in Jiangnan, as if he wanted to blackmail Xie Shiting, but after the failure, Xie Shiting went out of the mountain to serve as the head of the household department and entered the cabinet. He later instigated the Sky Wolf to bombard Hengjiang Port, but Hu Zongxian saw through it and temporarily changed the emperor's itinerary, which avoided a tragedy.

According to the analysis of his motives, this Xie Donglai is an out-and-out anti-'social element, which shows that the forces behind the Hero Alliance and the current imperial court are not in the same pot.

I was suddenly shocked, I went to Sihetang today, and was fooled by Zhao Jiuye to steal this heirloom jade seal, but I only felt that it was a little difficult for me to come to the palace to steal things.

Now think about it, it's scary!

What is the jade seal of the country, it is the supreme treasure that represents the imperial power! I was actually moved by Zhao Jiuye's words in a few words, and I took it for granted at the time.

But tonight, judging from the situation, they did not attack the palace. The Nether God Cult also has a move tonight, could it be that the Sihe Hall and the Nether God Cult have fought each other?

When I was in deep thought, someone poked me from behind, and I looked back and saw that it was Xiao Dezi.

He asked in a low voice, have you eaten? I shook my head, he took out a few pieces of rice cakes from his arms, and I didn't know when I would be able to put down the value, pad my stomach. I glanced at Father-in-law Tang, who was leaning against the doorpost to take a nap, took the rice cake, swallowed a piece in one gulp, and chewed it slowly.

There was a little eunuch knocking on the door, Father-in-law Tang, two people needed to wait in the study. Father-in-law Tang opened his eyes, looked at the person who came, and said, the father-in-law who is on duty in the study is the father-in-law of the celebrant supervisor, why did we come to the division on duty?

Xiao Dezi suddenly said, to be able to go to the study to serve the emperor, that is the supreme honor of our duty division!

The little eunuch coughed dryly, I can't hide it, the three fathers-in-law on duty were all killed by the emperor, and there is really no one, didn't you come to you?

Grandpa Tang sighed, Xiao Dezi, you go!

Look at Xiao Dezi again, lying on his back on the ground, vomiting foam, like a seizure, Tang Gonggong said don't pretend, if you don't go, I'll kill you now.

At this moment, I have rice cakes in my mouth, stuck to my tongue, I can't swallow them, I can't spit them out, and I am so uncomfortable that I want to die, but Grandpa Tang is here again, bending over and nodding vigorously, wanting to swallow the rice cakes.

Father-in-law Tang saw me and said Xiao Shunzi, you want to go too?

As soon as I heard this, I hurriedly shook my head, the emperor was less than an hour tonight, and there were Gonggong Liu, three ceremonial eunuchs, and the deputy commander of the forbidden army.

If you don't speak, you agree!

The rice cake in my mouth was sticky and speechless, and when Father-in-law Tang said this, I took a breath and spit out the rice cake with a poof.

Syllable!

The rice cake was sticking to Tang's father-in-law's face.

I was stunned and said sorry, I didn't control it!

Tang Gonggong was furious and said to the comer, it's him, if he doesn't go, I'll kill him now!

I said in my heart that you have the ability to kill me, but it's not a problem to spend it here, so I went to the study with Xiao Dezi.

Although the duty department is also a eunuch on duty, he is mainly responsible for lowly work such as hygiene, firewood, and washing, and cannot directly contact the emperor, but the eunuchs who went to the study tonight were all killed, so we were allowed to go to the top.

Of course, the celebrant may not have a good heart in this arrangement. Along the way, the eunuch was still teaching us the rules of going to the study, how to grind, how to lay paper, how to write the emperor's handwritten edict, how to make tea, how to clean our hands, how to wash, and so on.

Before I got to the study, I heard Emperor Ming Zhu Runze throwing things, I consciously leaned to the side, and didn't dare to go in.

Zhu Runze scolded angrily, Yang Ge Lao, Xu Ge Lao, you two are really my good Aiqing, on weekdays in the court, you two are not happy to fight 'landlords, why don't you speak today?

Xu Yufu's voice came, and the emperor asked to calm his anger.

Zhu Runze knocked on the table and scolded, "Damn, you came to tell me that the jade seal of the country was stolen by someone, and you let me calm my anger?" Yang Ge Lao, what do you say?

Yang Ge said calmly, Your Majesty, the old minister has ordered the six gates and the Shuntian Mansion to block the capital, strictly check the people entering and exiting, and if they encounter suspicious people, they will all be arrested, but they are ......

Zhu Runze said coldly: But what?

Yang Ge Lao Dao, if this matter can be involved by the Jinyi Guard and the forbidden army, I am afraid it will be able to get twice the result with half the effort!

Zhu Runze said loudly, "In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the palace caught fire and the big treasure was stolen, don't you think your face is lost enough? You also moved the city to arrest you? Let Lu Bing and Lu Zhongyuan secretly investigate this matter! In addition, tonight's incident said that the palace fireworks accidentally lit the Taihe Hall.

The two even claimed to be.

Zhu Runze said again, all the eunuchs and palace maids who participated in the firefighting were killed, and no one was left!

The two didn't dare to refute, and they should come down.

Originally, I had a good impression of Emperor Ming Zhu Runze, especially when he was in Jiangnan, he also personally ordered Li Muge, why did it take less than half a year to change the personality of the whole person?

At that time, I thought that Zhu Runze was suspicious by nature, but he was also a man of great talent, and he killed people at every turn tonight, and even the cabinet scholars did not dare to admonish, is it because Emperor Lingzong Zhu Wuneng ?

After that, a violent cough sounded coming, Zhu Runze almost bent his waist to the ground, and after a long time, he said, Liu Fang, hurry up and take one of the pills prepared by Divine Doctor Xue and give it to me!

Master of Ceremonies Liu Gonggong said, master, you have swallowed one pill in the afternoon, and now you have not yet completed it, I'm afraid ......

Zhu Runze said sharply, I am not dead yet, no one will listen to what I say? Turning to Yang and Xu, the two pavilion elders, you stand down, tomorrow the court will be held as usual.

Yang Menglong and Xu Yufu, two cabinet ministers, came out of the upper study, glanced at us who were standing quietly under the gatehouse not far away, and walked out worriedly.

With the help of Liu Fang, the celebrant of ceremonies, Zhu Runze swallowed a red pill. It didn't take long for Emperor Ming to take off his coat, drink some cold wine and cold food, take off his coat, and his hair was scattered, leaving only a bright yellow thin shirt, and came to the courtyard of the upper study, and began to walk in the courtyard.

These red pills, the five stone powder in the Wei and Jin dynasties are somewhat similar, after eating, people are excited, in a trance, the whole body is hot, only through thin shirts, fast walking, supplemented by cold wine and cold food, can effectively disperse.

Zhu Runze, whom I saw half a year ago, had the shape of a dragon and a tiger, and his voice was loud, but in less than half a year, he had pale sideburns and deep wrinkles, and he had become very old. Not only that, but his personality has also changed, and I can't help but wonder, what happened in the past six months that made him change so much?

About half an hour later, Zhu Runze stopped walking, Liu Fangdao, master, there are still more than two hours before the dawn of the court, why don't you sleep for a while?

Zhu Runze said, I can't sleep, just go to the study and sit for a while. As soon as Liu Fang helped him up, Zhu Runze lay straight in the snow.

Go and pass on the Imperial Doctor!

Invite Doctor Xue over!

Everyone began to panic, the emperor actually fainted, who can afford this sin, Liu Fang saw us, and said, why are you three still stunned, don't you come to help?

We carried Zhu Wuneng to the upper study, Zhu Runze's eyes were closed, his breathing was a little short, and there were several bruises on his body, which were obvious signs of mercury poisoning.

But after a long time, Doctor Xue came, he obviously didn't expect me to meet me here, after all, I know his details, he said, Your Majesty This is the internal fire attacking the heart, do not hinder it, I will use the golden needle method to help him channel the internal fire.

I said in my heart that the poison of mercury in him, if he was bathed with hot water, he might still be saved, but this Xue Shen Doctor is half a fool of his medical skills, I really don't feel at ease.

However, in this kind of place, I am soft-spoken, and I have no chance to interject at all, so I am busy with Xiao Dezi and give Doctor Xue a hand.

After putting two bowls of blood on Zhu Runze, Zhu Runze slowly woke up, his body was very weak, someone had already sent a white fungus lotus seed soup, he held the bowl and drank a few sips with a jade spoon.

At this time, a subordinate came down to report, long live Qizuo, tonight the six-door prison was robbed, and the prisoners in Tianzi No. 1 room were robbed!

Syllable!

The jade bowl in Zhu Runze's hand fell to the ground, and the lotus seed soup was scattered all over the ground.
