Chapter 15 Beijing Emergency
On the third day, after confirming that Qian San was not infected with the plague and was poisoned, Liu Fusu was released from isolation. She went to the makeshift pharmacy early to find He Wanqin and Shen Hai to see if they had found a cure for her master, Qian Sanyi.
"Lord He, Doctor Shen, is my master saved?" Liu Fusu saw that He Wanqin was cooking medicinal herbs and Shen Hai was making a fire to cook Chinese medicine, so he stepped forward and asked.
"Back to Miss Liu's words, Xia Guan and Shen Hai have been studying for days and finally found a poison in the medical book that is very similar to Lord Qian!" He Wanqin got up and replied.
Shen Hai saw that it was this fairy-like and beautiful Liu Fusu, so he walked over and said, "This poison is the zombie poison that only a mysterious tribe in Yelang Country has, and the third day is the final day of detoxification, otherwise after noon, Lord Qian's life will be lost." ”
He Wanqin frowned when he saw that Liu Fusu was sad, and said to her, "Miss Liu, don't worry! Last night, Xia Guan and Shen Hai had already told His Royal Highness King Ning, and His Royal Highness King Ning sent the flying pigeon to pass the book to Qin Xiuhan's shopkeeper on the first floor to ask for the prescription, and the flying pigeon had already brought the prescription! At this time, we are decocting the medicinal soup. ”
"Thank you, Lord He, thank you Dr. Shen!" Liu Fusu smiled slightly at this time, "Is the medicine decoction?" I'll drink with Master. ”
Shen Hai picked up the medicine pot and poured out a bowl of black decoction, and Liu Fusu brought it over and walked with them to her master's room.
At this time, Xiao Chong, the king of Ning, also rushed over, and saw Liu Fusu feeding Qian Sanyi to drink medicine, so he watched quietly with everyone.
"Ahem! Cough! Meet His Royal Highness King Ning! Qian San also woke up and saw everyone around him, "What's going on?" ”
"Master, you have been in a coma for three days." Liu Fusu helped Qian Sanyi to sit with his back against the bedpost, "How does Master feel now?" ”
Ning Wang Xiao Chong stood with his hands behind his back and watched without saying a word. Wang Jiaer stepped forward and asked, "Lord Qian, have you offended anyone recently?" ”
Qian San also shook his head and said with certainty, "No!" Liu Fuqing asked thoughtfully, "Has Lord Qian done anything special recently?" ”
Qian Sanyi just wanted to shake his head, but suddenly froze and remembered, "That's right! A few days ago, he and Fusu were in the side hall because of the heavy taxes in the Huyang area, and they wrote a note to report to the imperial court to reduce the taxes and let the people of Huyang recuperate. After Qian Sanyi finished speaking, he insisted on getting up and rummaging around the house, only to find that he couldn't find it, "Xia Guan obviously put it in the package, why is it missing?" ”
"Someone doesn't want this to go to the court!" Xiao Chong, King of Ning, said coldly, "Order a thorough investigation of this matter!" “
"Who is going to put Lord Qian to death? Presumably it is related to the grain and grass of the Northwest Army. Wang Jiaer looked at Ning Wang Xiao Chong and said. Ning Wang Xiao Chong nodded, he had already guessed that it was either King An Xiao Zhao or Prince Xiao Luan, King An Xiao Zhao was far away in the capital, he should not stretch out his hand so long, it seemed that the people on the side of Prince Xiao Luan did it, and he didn't want the other party to start so quickly.
"Report! Beijing Emergency! An spy was hit by an arrow sideways and still flew into the side hall, knelt on the ground and gasped for breath and said, "Report to Your Highness, the capital is in danger, King Xiao Zhao of An committed the following crimes, collaborated with the enemy to commit treason, and the Yelang Kingdom in the northwest invaded." ”
"What?" Everyone asked in surprise, although Xiao Chong, the king of Ning, had expected it, he still couldn't accept that his brother had collaborated with the enemy to kill his father for the throne.
"Jiaer, Fuqing, what is the progress of the post-disaster reconstruction of Huyang City today? Is the plague under control? "The more Ning Wang Xiao Chong encounters major and urgent matters, the more he can suppress his emotions, calm and calm, this is an instinct that has been cultivated since childhood.
"The post-disaster reconstruction of Huyang City is supervised by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lord Taiwei Yao, and the current report shows that it has reached the late stage. The plague infection investigation was completed the day before yesterday, and the people who should be quarantined have been isolated, and Lord He and Dr. Shen are responsible for the preparation and distribution of the decoction, which can basically be said to control the number of people who are re-infected. Wang Jiaer stepped forward and bowed to Xiao Chong, the king of Ning, and said.
Xiao Chong, King of Ning, nodded and said, "If our large army returns to the capital tonight, is it feasible to leave you and Fusu to continue to guard the epidemic prevention in Huyang?" ”
Wang Jiaer and Liu Fuqing stepped forward to receive the order, "The subordinates obey the order and live up to King Ning's love!" ”
"Come on, please invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lord Taiwei Yao to come, this king has something important to discuss with them!" Xiao Chong, the king of Ning, sat on the Taishi's chair and coldly ordered to go down.
In a moment, the crown prince Xiao Luan and the prince Yao Jinlong arrived. Prince Xiao Luan's eyebrows flew, "Third child, you'd better have a good reason for Prince Ben to move you here, otherwise don't blame Prince Ben for being polite." ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, do you know what the situation in the capital is now?" Xiao Chong, King of Ning, had already stood up at this time and looked at his crown brother.
"What can happen in the capital!" The crown prince Xiao Luan glanced at Ning Wang Xiao Chong with disdain.
At this moment, a young guard rushed to the ground, knelt on the ground and said, "Urgent! The queen mother instructed the little horse to whip up the whip and report to His Royal Highness the Prince. The imperial city was in danger, and Xiao Zhao, the king of An, committed a crime and collaborated with the enemy to kill his father. ”
"What !!" Prince Xiao Luan jumped up in shock and asked loudly, and the cup in the hand of Taiwei Yao Jinlong also fell to the ground and shattered.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Xiao Luan instantly calmed down, turned his head to Xiao Chong, the king of Ning, and said, "Third brother, we should hurry back and rescue the driver!" Prepare to return to Beijing on the same day!! ”
Xiao Chong, the king of Ning, nodded cautiously, and then instructed Wang Jiaer and Liu Fuqing to arrange for Liu Fusu to return to Beijing together.
After packing up, it was already dusk, and a team of people rushed to the direction of the capital.
It was late at night, sleeping on the side of the road. Xiao Chong, King of Ning, and Duan Ming, his guard, walked into the depths of the woods, and the figure was drowned in the night.
"Report to the master, the master has a secret report to the master!" A man in a night suit flew down from a tree, knelt on the ground, and handed a small bamboo slip to Xiao Chong, King of Ning, with both hands.
Xiao Chong, King Ning, couldn't see the expression on his face, he just picked up the letter inside the small bamboo slip and looked at it, "The sandpiper and the clam compete, and the fisherman profits." After reading it, he burned the credit fire and left the woods.
The next day, early in the morning, fog filled the woods. The guard Duan Ming waited outside the account of King Xiao Chong of Ning early, and he did not see King Xiao Chong of Ning get up. The crown prince Xiao Luan has been waiting impatiently, as the crown prince he wants to rush back to Beijing immediately to save the car, this is a very critical turning point for him, maybe he can reach the sky in one step.
"Ah Chong, wake up!" Liu Fusu walked into his tent worriedly, and he suddenly got up and hugged Liu Fusu, and immediately asked her to be silent.
"Fusu, you help this king hide His Royal Highness the Prince, saying that this king has a sudden cold and needs to recuperate for a few days, and it is not suitable to travel long distances." Xiao Chong, King of Ning, lowered his majestic voice and said.
Liu Fusu nodded, and walked out of the tent in a moment to salute, "His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness King Ning suffered from the cold last night, and his body was weak and unconscious, so it is not suitable for a long journey." ”
The crown prince Xiao Luan glanced at the prince Yao Jinlong, and he was in his heart, the palace had encountered an accident, and Xiao Chong, the king of Ning, would not enter Beijing to escort him, which would inevitably make the emperor suspicious. He said loudly to Liu Fusu, "Since King Ning is cold, then let's recuperate here for a few days, and Prince Ben will go to Beijing immediately, and when King Ning is a little better, let him catch up with Prince Ben's soldiers and horses as soon as possible." ”
Everyone knelt down and replied, "Yes!" I saw the prince Xiao Luan and his team set off in a mighty way.
After Liu Fusu saw that the crown prince Xiao Luan was leaving with the people, he returned to the tent of Xiao Chong, the king of Ning, "Ah Chong, why don't you go back to Beijing with the prince's people?" Now the situation in the palace is urgent, and the Holy Lord's destiny is on the horizon. ”
"That's right, but the prince and his entourage are too eye-catching, and they are the main ambush targets of King An!" Xiao Chong, the king of Ning, got up and sat in the tent and said to Liu Fusu.
Duan Ming waited beside him, "Your Highness, your subordinates have counted the people and horses left, and the two thousand are all ours, and Your Highness can give orders at any time." ”
Xiao Chong, King of Ning, nodded, and ordered Duan Ming, "Follow this king's order, and immediately travel in simple clothes!" ”
Liu Fusu couldn't ride a horse, so he disguised himself as a rich lady and traveled and sat in a wide carriage.
When they arrived at a small town inn to rest, a group of masked men with swords rushed forward to fight the guards.
"Leave a few alive!" Ning Wang Xiao Chong gave an order, and the scene was melee for a long time, although the black-clothed man was strong in martial arts, he could not defeat Ning Wang Xiao Chong's well-trained guards.
Duan Ming led the three black-clothed men to step forward and forcibly ordered them to kneel, "Say!" Who ordered you to assassinate His Royal Highness King Ning? ”
The three assassins were silent, staring motionless at Xiao Chong, King of Ning, who stepped forward and asked, "Whoever speaks will save his life!" ”
The three assassins immediately bit their tongues and committed suicide, Duan Ming stepped forward to test his snort with his hands, and shook his head at Xiao Chong, King of Ning.
King Ning Xiao Chong retreated left and right, leaving only a few cronies, Duan Ming couldn't hold his breath, "Your Highness, our actions are very secretive, how did these assassins catch up?" ”
"We have spies among us! Duan Ming, check it out! Xiao Chong, King of Ning, swung his sword and cut down a tree with a thick bowl mouth next to him, and turned to Duan Ming and said.
"Yes!" Duan Ming saluted with his sword in both hands, and then took a few guards down.
As soon as the incense was burned, Duan Ming and several guards brought a young man to Xiao Chong, the king of Ning.
"Get on your knees!" Duan Ming said sharply, "Your Highness, this person is a new guard who entered the mansion last year, and he has been waiting for an opportunity to go out a few times recently!" ”
King Ning's Xiao Chong's cold light shot directly at the guard, and the guard was so frightened that he shivered a few times, "His Royal Highness King Ning spares his life!" I'm recruiting! It was His Royal Highness King An who ordered someone to contact me, and knowing that my mother had no support, he bribed me with a lot of money and reported the news! ”
Xiao Chong, King of Ning, glanced at it before he spoke, "Pull it down, fight thirty boards, and expel King Ning's mansion!" ”
"Thank you, Your Highness, spare your life! Thank Your Highness for not killing! The guard wept bitterly and was dragged down.
Xiao Chong, the king of Ning, walked to Liu Fusu's carriage, opened the curtain and asked, "Fusu, this king needs to speed up his return to Beijing, otherwise there may be changes, you can also ride a fast horse!" ”
Liu Fusu has always wanted to ride a horse, but he was afraid that he would not be able to control it, so he looked at those tall horses, and smiled reservedly and said, "Ah Chong, I don't know how to ride a horse." ”
"Don't worry, this king will ride with you!" Xiao Chong, the king of Ning, pulled Liu Fusu out of the carriage as he spoke, he gently helped Liu Fusu to get on the horse, and then he jumped up briskly, riding in the dust, and thousands of horses galloped together.
