Fu Xiaoguan smiled and returned home in the heavy snow with 300,000 taels of silver.

At this moment, there is also a heavy snow in Guanyun City.

There are two dead wind lanterns hanging on the old pine of Guanyuntai, and the dim light illuminates the chess table under the tree.

Wu Chao Right Xiang Zhuo and his party and Left Xiang Nangong Yiyu were sitting in this snowstorm, not playing chess, and there was not even a chess piece on the chess table.

Nangong Yiyu took a deep breath and opened his mouth: "It has been more than a month since the news of His Highness arrived. ”

Zhuo and his entourage looked at the deep sea of clouds, and after a long time, he said, "But Her Majesty's smallpox has not healed. ”

"Could it be that the right minister thinks that Her Majesty the Empress really has smallpox?"

Zhuo Yixing raised his eyebrows and looked at Nangong Yiyu, "Could it be that Zuo Xiang thinks it's not the case?" ”

Nangong Yiyu nodded, "The old man is very suspicious, the smallpox disease is extremely difficult to survive, the old man asked the imperial doctor, this disease will either cause people to die early, or they will survive in the rest of the month." But Her Majesty the Empress went to Jinghu Villa, and it has been seven months now. ”

Zhuo and his entourage bowed slightly, "The old man also asked, but there are 30,000 blood-clothed guards and 1,000 women's soldiers firmly guarding Jinghu Villa, so they can't get in." ”

"So the old man thinks that there must be something greasy here, and even the old man is very suspicious that Her Majesty the Empress is still in the world!"

Zhuo and his entourage frowned suddenly, and shook their heads after a long time, "If Her Majesty really has an accident...... Empress Dowager Xi will naturally issue a decree to summon Fu Xiaoguan back to China. ”

Nangong Yiyu suddenly leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Even if Her Majesty the Empress didn't have an accident, shouldn't he recruit Fu Xiaoguan to return to China?" But now, since the Empress Dowager Xi has lowered the curtain to listen to the government, the old man has mentioned it several times, but she has denied it because Her Majesty the Empress has not yet come to the court, why is this? ”

"What are you suspecting?"

"The emperor's brother Wu Dalang once came back, he saw Zhou Tong and left in a hurry, do you remember why Dalang left Guanyun City fifteen years ago?"

The old man naturally remembered that Da Lang was not born to the Queen Mother, but from Concubine Ye. Because of the Queen Mother's exclusion and finally contracted the disease, he was taken away by an old Taoist priest, and five years later he came back alive to Guanyun City, and talked a lot with His Majesty, at that time only Zhou Tongtong was a witness. ”

Nangong Yiyu was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Da Lang was rescued by the previous Guan Zhu of the Taoist Academy, he came back that time and was ambushed three times, but fortunately he was accompanied by Da Lang's senior brother, that is, the Guan Master of the contemporary Taoist Academy, and he saw His Majesty." ”

"She's going to put Da Lang to death?"

"Who else but her? Da Lang's mother, Concubine Ye, died of a cold illness, and the former emperor died even more strangely, and even the imperial doctor couldn't see the cause. If you think about it again, when His Majesty ascended the throne eleven years ago, it was when the first emperor died, she launched the bloody incident of Shili Pinghu, and almost wiped out the bloodline of the Wu family, saying that it was for the stability of His Majesty's throne, but the old man is a little suspicious now. ”

"What do you suspect?"

Nangong Yiyu squinted at the dark night, and after a long time, he said in a low voice: "The old man suspects that the death of the first emperor is due to the fact that the people of the royal family know that there is no impermeable wall in the world, if someone really does the killing of the king, it will leave clues after all." In order to completely mess up these clues, simply kill them all, and naturally they will be clean. ”

"That's what you say...... Isn't Zhou Tongtong also an accomplice? ”

"The old man doesn't see Zhou Tongtong very clearly, he did participate in the bloody incident of Shili Pinghu, but he doesn't seem to be close to Empress Dowager Xi in the past ten years. And His Majesty met Da Lang, since he was called to participate, I think His Majesty trusted him. ”

Zhuo Yixing pondered for a moment, "These old things will be investigated later, and the question now is how to let Fu Xiaoguan return to the country." ”

"No, now Fu Xiaoguan can't come back."

Zhuo and his entourage were stunned for a moment, and understood what Nangong Yiyu meant, "It's a pity that the jade seal of the country is lost, otherwise if you go to the eighteenth floor of Tianji Pavilion to take a look, you may be able to see some clues." ”

"Today's matter stops at you and me, you can be more vigilant in the future, wait slowly, there will be a day when the water will come out."

"Tomorrow morning, the old man once again proposed to meet Her Majesty the Empress."

"After the end of tomorrow's morning, the old man wants to meet Xiao Yan."

Zhuo Yixing frowned, "What did you do when you saw her?" ”

"She used to be a queen, and only a queen understands a queen."

Zhuo and his entourage nodded, and Nangong Yiyu suddenly asked, "I heard that Zhuo Bieli has broken the Holy Rank?" ”

"Well, he has given up his position as generalissimo of soldiers and horses, and there has been a breakthrough in martial arts."

"Why don't you let Takabor leave to have a look at Mirror Lake Villa?"

Zhuo and his entourage raised their eyebrows, "Youyou Beidou is guarding there." ”

Nangong Yiyu didn't ask again, since You Beidou is still guarding Jinghu Villa, it means that Her Majesty the Empress did not have an accident, so what kind of illness did Her Majesty the Empress have?

None of them knew that Chau Bie-li was in Mirror Lake Villa at the moment.

Under the arrangement of Zhou Tongtong, Jinghu Villa ambushed many masters, including You Beidou and Zhuo Beili of the Holy Order, and there is also a first-class peak sword idiot Ning Fatian!

……

……

The harem of the imperial city of the Wu Dynasty.

It's eerie, only the red lantern is flickering, and it seems that even the watchman doesn't dare to appear in this harem.

Empress Dowager Xi was sitting on the warm pavilion, and a black-clothed masked man was standing in front of her and bowed:

"Empress Dowager, Gao Xian has been captured by Zhou Tongtong and is on his way back to Beijing."

Empress Dowager Xi's old eyes narrowed slightly, "This old dog is becoming more and more useless, and he sent people from the secret door to guard the Qishan corridor and summon Baili Hong to go, and the mourning family didn't want to see a living mouth." ”

"Yes!"

The man in black turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Empress Dowager Xi again: "Wait...... Xiao Yan's slut is a trouble after all, so send her on the road. ”

“…… Good! ”

"Tong Yan's assassination of Fu Xiaoguan...... Haven't done it yet? ”

"Back to the Queen Mother, I haven't succeeded yet."

"Send a letter to Bai Zi with a letter bird, and let her take the people from the hidden door to do this, the mourning family always feels childish...... If Fu Xiaoguan doesn't die again, the hundred officials of the Wu Dynasty will be forced to force the palace! ”

“…… The subordinates remembered. ”

"In addition, inform the holy woman that if you want to succeed, at the latest in March next year, you have to let Yu Wenshu raise the banner to destroy Yu, Yu is in chaos, Yi and the barren country must send troops to conscript, and the Wu Dynasty will also send troops out of Qishan, and the four-pronged approach can be decided in one fell swoop. As for how the Yu Dynasty will divide it after this is decided...... Tell the saint that the mourning family means that the Chen Dynasty will support Xirong and establish the country, as for the rest...... Let Yu Wenshu fight with the country of Yi. ”

The man in black raised his head, with some doubts in his eyes, and couldn't help but ask: "But this is all Chen Chaozhi's territory." ”

Empress Dowager Xi grinned, "Let that territory be stained with more blood, and it will be more fertile in the future." Go ahead, we're tired. ”

"Subordinates retire!"

The man in black left the harem and turned his head to take a look, and his heart trembled with gloomy compassion.

The world will be chaotic, chaos will rise in the Yu Dynasty, Fu Xiaoguan, do you still have the power to turn the tide?
