Chapter 60: Unconscious (2)
In the end, the little eunuch didn't stand Su Yitong's intimidation and acted honestly.
According to his confession, Su Yitong found a total of four palace maids and eunuchs who were about the same age as him and had some kung fu in the Jardine Palace, two men and two women, and their kung fu was better than the other.
She was stunned when she saw it, and she almost didn't smash the Jardine Hall in anger. It's no wonder that she has encountered assassins recently, and it turns out that the people who leaked the secrets are all people close to her.
With this lesson, she also learned wisely, and investigated the life history of the people in the Jardine Palace from the inside out, and only gave up after making sure that it was okay.
However, it is true that the spy of Yihedian has found out, but the person behind it, the little eunuch, died before he could speak. The other two palace maids and eunuchs also committed suicide by biting their tongues before he died.
When it was getting dark, Su Yitong frowned and looked at the five dead bodies in the courtyard, a little heartbroken.
None of the punishments she learned in the TV series came in handy! These people hurried to the Yama Temple to report.
After a long sigh, she said, "Send them all out of the palace and find a place to bury them." ”
She's from the 21st century, she's not a heinous person, and she can't do anything like this to expose people to the wilderness.
After stepping on the meal and returning to the Yihe Palace, she took the chopsticks at this end, and Xiao Xizi replied outside the door: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Prince Regent has come down." ”
Wind Wings! What did he come to do? Picking up the chopsticks and eating a mouthful of food, she muttered, "Let him in." ”
Presumably, the news of the assassin encountered in the Jardine Hall spread, and Feng Feiyi deliberately ran to verify the truth of the matter.
Thinking so, she didn't care much.
After a while, Feng Feiyi strode in, and his clothes flew in the wind, as if he had just received the news and hurried into the palace from outside the palace.
When he saw Su Yitong, who was sitting in the hall with a safe and sound face, still eating and drinking, he was slightly shocked. "Your Majesty, are you alright?"
Su Yitong glared at him, pointed to the soft couch behind him and said, "It's him who has something to do, I'm fine." ”
Feng Feiyi looked in the direction she was pointing.
Under the dim light, the hall was warm, and the green jade cup gently swaying in front of the soft couch reflected Jun Moyan's face as thin and sallow, like a person's dying reflection, which made people feel cold all over the body.
Feng Feiyi's expression was slightly awe-inspiring.
Su Yitong said while eating: "The assassin is a little eunuch, and he uses a secret weapon to quench poison. If it weren't for Jun Mo's life, I'm afraid I would have died. ”
Feng Feiyi tilted his head slightly when he heard this. "Can you find out who is behind it?"
Su Yitong shook his head. "If only I found out."
When I put down the chopsticks, my appetite was gone.
Instructed the palace people to withdraw the dinner, crossed the wind and flew to the soft couch to cover the quilt for Jun Mo, she couldn't hide her sadness and said: "He was poisoned, and Imperial Doctor Lin said that if he can't develop an antidote, then he will have to wait for death." ”
"Do you need the king's help?" Feng Feiyi looked at her and said in a deep voice.
Su Yitong glanced at him with some surprise, not understanding how sincere his help was. After all, the person in front of her also wanted her to die, so she couldn't help it.
"No, the assassins are dead, and even if you want to help, you won't be able to find any clues." She waved her hand, walked to the dragon chair and sat down, and asked, "The regent is still coming to the Jardine Palace so late, is there something important?" ”
In the face of her attitude, Feng Feiyi was a little uncomfortable, and lowered his eyebrows and thought for a while before he said, "It's okay,"
"Hmm." raised his eyebrows, as if he had expected Su Yitong. She nodded and said, "It's not too early, the regent should leave the palace early." ”
Hearing the unhappiness in her words, Feng Feiyi couldn't help but frown. "Your Majesty really doesn't need the king's help?"
"No need ......"
Half perfunctory and half displeased, Su Yitong was a little annoyed. This man clearly came to see the excitement sincerely.
Flicking her sleeves and waving away the palace people of the Jardine Palace, she locked the palace door uneasily, and then walked lightly to the blank wall, stretched out her hand and knocked lightly three times.
With a "boom", the walls opened automatically after a while, and several dim lights were projected from the front of the secret room.
Su Yitong stood at the door of the secret passage, glanced at the empty hall behind him, and after making sure that there was no one, he walked in.
The sound of slowly burning torches came into his ears one after another, and Su Yitong was a little nervous in his heart.
"Your Majesty......"
"My subordinates have seen Your Majesty."
Obviously, everyone present recognized Su Yitong, and as soon as she appeared, she knelt on the ground in the dark.
"You guys?" She looked at the black-clothed shadow guards that nearly a hundred Jun Mo had chosen for her in astonishment, and she couldn't help but feel a warm current in her heart.
Jumping down the steps excitedly, she looked at the kneeling crowd with moist eyes, and said earnestly: "Get up." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The shadow guards arched their hands, and their voices were sonorous and powerful.
Su Yitong was stunned for a moment before asking, "Before you come, did the general tell you what he was going to do?" ”
The shadow guards nodded in unison, "Back to Your Majesty, the general has already told us." ”
Su Yitong nodded, couldn't help but be emotional, and said enthusiastically: "Well, from today on, you will all be my shadow guards, and you will also be my good brothers from birth to death." ”
The shadow guards were stunned when they heard her words, obviously not expecting this sentence to pop out of the mouth of the current son. For them, with an identity like theirs, they can only live in darkness all their lives, and no one will even know when they die. Therefore, Su Yitong's words easily hooked out the softness in their hearts. Secretly swore that he would be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor.
I have seen and seen, and I have said it, Su Yitong was a little speechless for a while, and she paced in place for a long time before she remembered Jun Moyan who was lying outside the secret passage.
Her eyebrows suddenly sank, and there was a bit of majesty in her peach blossom eyes, she said: "Today, I was thinking of coming to see you with the general as soon as possible, but during the day, in order to save me, the general was poisoned by a hidden weapon, and now he is still lying outside unconscious." ”
As soon as she said this, the secret passage, which was already impermeable, became depressed.
Su Yitong looked at them and said with a serious face: "So, after I leave, you will be responsible for finding out the news, investigating the identity and background of all the ministers in the DPRK and China, remember, it is necessary to be detailed about what they like to eat, drink, and who they have dealings with. ”
She wants to see how many of the courtiers in this hall recognize her as the emperor.
"Yes."
The Shadow Guards gave up.
Su Yitong said again: "I need ten shadow guards to protect my safety, which of you is willing?" ”
The shadow guards glanced at each other, and then ten people walked out of them, knelt respectfully, and said, "Your Majesty." ”
Su Yitong nodded, "Hmm." ”
Raising her eyes to look at a silent man in white standing behind the shadow guards, she asked, "Are you the former soldier of the military department?" ”
The man in white who was named was slightly stunned, and his not handsome face fell in the dim light, but it was also impressive.
Su Yitong looked at him silently, and did not speak again, but waited for his next words.
The man in white rolled up his sleeves, walked past the shadow guards, and arched his hand: "The former military squire Zuo Li has seen Your Majesty. ”
"Hmm." Su Yitong watched his every move and nodded appreciatively. Calmly and unhurriedly, there is a tendency of Mount Tai to collapse at the top and not change color, but it is a rare talent. He pursed his lips, and the haze in the corners of his eyes receded slightly. She said, "Can the general tell you what I think?" ”
Zuo Li lowered his eyebrows and pleasing his eyes, "Back to Your Majesty, I said." ”
"That's good." Su Yitong reached out and took out a stack of papers from his sleeve for a long time and handed it to him. "Now, here's for you."
Zuo Lihu looked at the stack of papers in her hand suspiciously, and didn't take it for a long time.
Seeing him like this, Su Yitong shook the paper again with a little amusement, and explained: "This is an ordnance and weapon manufacturing diagram drawn by me, and the production methods and steps are clearly marked on it, are you sure you don't want it?" ”
She knew that a person who really liked to make ordnance would never refuse this temptation, so as soon as her words fell, Zuo Li took the stack of papers with an excited face and flipped through it in his hand.
But as soon as he looked at the two photos, he praised one after another: "Wonderful, wonderful, really wonderful." ”
After reading all the drawings with bright eyes, the shadow guards behind him couldn't help but be interested in what he was holding, and they all raised their necks to look at it.
Su Yitong said: "How? ”
If she is not mistaken, Zuo Li's expression must be very satisfied.
Zuo Li's hand trembled, and he was a little incoherent with excitement, "This...... This...... It's all Your Majesty...... What did you design? ”
These weapons are simply wonderful, and if they are actually made, even if they are against a hundred, it will not be a problem. But...... Are these really painted by His Majesty the Emperor in front of him, who looks a little wretched?
I still remember that when he was convicted at the end of last year and he shouted injustice, His Majesty the Emperor in front of him was so frightened that he hid behind Prime Minister Liuli and didn't even dare to say anything serious.
But how long has passed, and His Majesty's personality has changed so much.
Or is it the former majesty, who has been in disguise all along? He looked at it suspiciously, his heart beating violently, both excited and suspicious.
"Of course I painted it." Su Yitong smiled and didn't see his eyebrows, and said in a straight voice: "However, at the moment, there is no military service recruited to help you, if you don't dislike it, you can pick out a group of these shadow guards to help you." But the place, limited to this secret room, I wonder if you can do it? ”
"You can do it. The minister will definitely be able to do it. Zuo Li nodded excitedly, with a trilling voice in his voice.
Su Yitong nodded, "That's it, I shouldn't stay here for a long time, if you need anything, you can arrange for the shadow guard to help you find it, as for the materials, I will think of ways to help you transport them in,"
"That's really great. Thank you, Your Majesty......"
Su Yitong waved his hand and said politely: "No thanks,"
With a wave of his hand, he led the ten shadow guards out of the secret passage.
In the main hall with the door closed, the candles were bright, and Su Yitong whispered to the ten shadow guards behind him: "This Yihe Hall has a lot of eyeliners, and when the door is opened, you will find an opportunity to go out, lurk around, and wait for my order at any time." ”
She took out a few whistles that had been prepared a long time ago from her bosom and distributed them, one for each person, she advised: "Take the whistle as the standard, and let no one find out until it is absolutely necessary." ”
The Shadow Guards nodded.
She clapped her hands, and the shadow guards moved, and immediately disappeared. She nodded with satisfaction, walked to the door of the hall, opened the door of the hall, and shouted, "Little Xizi, I'm thirsty, pour me a cup of tea." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a few strong winds passing by her side, and she disappeared with a few "whoosh" sounds.
She couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief. The people Jun Mo was looking for were really not small roles.
Returning to the hall and sitting down casually, Xiao Xizi came in with tea and said casually: "Your Majesty, it's late at night, you should rest early, and you will have an early morning tomorrow!" ”
