Chapter 123: The Stench
As soon as Cui Er dodged over, Lu Dong had a bad heart. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Sure enough, before he stabbed him next, Cui Er had already shouted: "Catch the assassin!" ”
"Catch the assassin!" "Catch the assassin!"
Loud shouts reverberated in the eunuch house.
At this time, five or six little eunuchs had already returned, and after hearing the shouting, everyone gathered around. Although he was afraid of the knife in Lu Dong's hand, he still had the courage to stop it.
"My life is at stake." Lu Dong waved the knife frantically, but this sentence sounded in his head.
He looked around in horror, feeling his body stiffen, and even his soul slowly sinking, as if falling into the dark water, constantly sinking.
"Bang!" A bang.
Lu Dong only felt a sharp pain in the back of his head, and then the world spun around, and the world in front of him seemed to turn black and white all of a sudden, gradually disappearing from his field of vision.
"Bang!" Cui Er touched his temples again.
The pure copper dung spoon is strong and heavy as a whole, and the force of smashing on the human head is definitely not light. It can stun people in just one hit, and bleed in the second hit.
Bright red blood flowed out of Lu Dong's ears, and soon accumulated a small puddle on the ground.
"People don't die, do they?" A little eunuch trembled and reached out to probe his snort.
However, his courage was too small, and before he touched Lu Dong's nose, he was so frightened that he retracted his hand, and said tremblingly: "Die, die......"
The little eunuch's legs were trembling, his face was pale with fright, and his whole body was shaking like chaff.
"Death is death, what are you afraid of? This is an assassin who has hurt the emperor! Come and help me move him to the car, and we'll go to the emperor to receive credit! ”
The little eunuch who stretched out his hand did not move, and took a step back in horror.
The other two were bold, and they moved the corpse to the dung truck, and they didn't forget to flattering and smiled: "Brother Cui, our brother also helped, when we go to receive the merit, you can help us say a good word." ”
Here's your chance! Great opportunity!
Those of them who live in the eunuch house are all small eunuchs who have no way out, the lowest level. If there is no accident, he will always do the dirtiest work until he dies in this palace.
But now, a broad road is in front of them.
They've caught the Assassin! Although it was Cui Er who recognized King Liang and Cui Er killed him, these little eunuchs also helped. As long as the emperor asks, Cui Erken can help with a few kind words, and they will be rewarded.
Maybe you can leave the eunuch house......
Thinking of this, several little eunuchs jumped for joy.
"Throw him in the dung bucket, close the lid so that no one can see it, rob us of the credit!" Cui Er was just about to go out, but suddenly stopped again and commanded with a calm face.
He'd seen a lot of things like that.
Here's a very simple example. He walked out with such a swagger, if he let Gonggong An see it, then the one who killed the assassin would become Gonggong An.
When the time comes, if Grandpa An is kind, he will mention him and let him get some benefits. If it's a vicious person, just kill him.
He was a little eunuch, and he couldn't even see the emperor's face. Even if you are offended, what can you do? No one will do justice to the little people.
"Let's not make a big deal about it, so as not to attract attention. You choose someone to accompany me to the Zhengyang Palace, and the rest is waiting here. Rest assured, everyone's credit will not be less. Cui Er solemnly promised.
People should remember to be grateful, and they should also know how to be content. If it weren't for the help of these five people, he would have died at the hands of Lu Dong. Where did you get a little credit?
……
In Zhengyang Palace, Han Xiu was still asleep.
Shi Jiao'e sat on the edge of his bed, staring at this familiar and unfamiliar face, and there was no wave in her heart.
There is no love, no hate, it is as if it were just a stranger. Now, between her and Han Xiu, there is only an entanglement of interests, and there is no emotional entanglement.
Still, that's fine. Only by withdrawing from her feelings can she not affect her judgment.
"Mother, mother...... There was a little eunuch outside who asked to see him, saying that he knew Lu Dong's traces. Liu Quan hunched his waist, shrunk his shoulders, and bowed his head to come in to report.
"Take him to the hall." Shi Jiao'e nodded, and said, "The palace will pass over in a while." ”
After Liu Quan left, she pressed her temples to relieve her intense exhaustion. got up, looked back at Han Xiu again, and then left with a calm expression.
Shi Jiao'e had just left, and Han Xiu's eyes immediately opened.
It turned out that he had already woken up, but he had been pretending to be asleep, trying to test everyone's attitude. Especially Shi Jiao'e, he wanted to know if Shi Jiao'e would take the opportunity to attack him.
Unfortunately, he didn't get the results he wanted. Whether it was the attitude of the ministers or Shi Jiao'e's reaction, it was a little unexpected to him.
In the eyes of the minister, he, the emperor, is dispensable, and the government still needs Shi Shoufu to deal with it. And Shi Jiao'e, he can't understand it at all, and he can't judge it.
……
On the other side, Shi Jiao'e went to the front hall.
She saw Cui Er at first sight, and then frowned - the scar on Cui Er's forehead looked particularly hideous and uncomfortable.
It is said that such an unsightly scar is generally not allowed to enter the palace as a eunuch. However, this little eunuch not only became a eunuch, but also knew Lu Dong's clues.
This little eunuch is definitely not simple!
"Do you know where King Liang is hiding?" Shi Jiao'e looked at him, her voice flat without any ups and downs.
King Liang hid in the eunuch house, originally wanted to pretend to pour night incense, and escaped from the palace while the chaos was over, but was spotted by the minions. Today, his body is in a vat outside the temple. ”
Cui Er didn't say the word dung.
After all, the queen mother is so noble that she can't use this word, so as not to stain her ears.
"The emperor once said that for the assassin who injured him, he must see people alive and corpses when he dies! You two, go and bring in King Liang's body. ”
Shi Jiao'e raised her hand and casually pointed at the two little eunuchs.
"Mother, you can't move in!" Cui Er hurriedly stopped her, but he couldn't stop her.
The two little eunuchs went out at once. And, after a while, Lu Dong's body was fished out and brought in with both hands and feet.
"Vomit-" Liu Quan smelled a foul smell, turned his head to look, and almost vomited.
The blue clothes on Lu Dong's body have now turned into an earthy color, and because they are soaked in fecal liquid, they are tightly attached to his body, exuding a pungent stench.
Shi Jiao'e also covered her nose.
It stinks, stinks so much that it makes people doubt life.
Lu Dong probably never imagined that he would die like this.
