Chapter 479: The ingenious Yuping Mountain
King Huai ordered all the soldiers and horses and asked Su Lang to lead the way and came to the foot of Yuping Mountain.
Yuping Mountain, originally the royal mausoleum of the first dynasty of the Night Moon Kingdom, where several generations of kings of the Night Moon Kingdom were buried, but it is a pity that the last generation of kings of the Night Moon Country was killed because of the violence. The government led to a mutiny, and it was at that time that the Zhao family was crowned emperor and established the Great Zhou.
Legend has it that a number of treasures in the Yeyue Kingdom are also hidden in this Yuping Mountain, but several generations of emperors of the Great Zhou Dynasty have not been able to find this treasure, so King Huai believes that this so-called treasure is just a legend.
"Lord, from here there is a path, you can go around to the back of the mountain." Su Lang pointed to the dead forest road on the side.
"Are you sure you can get through here?" King Huai was suspicious.
It's still winter, not to mention that there are so many dead trees here, not to mention, it just snowed some time ago, and the climate in the mountains is relatively cold, if this is a road for them to enter and exit, how can there be no footprints?
"Does the prince believe Su Lang? Su Lang was definitely not lying, this road was actually stumbled around in the mountains, and as for which way they entered and exited, I still don't know. Su Lang lowered his eyes.
Before, he and his family were assassinated several times by the people sent by King Ding and Lin Xiang, fortunately, someone secretly helped, he knew that the person who could have the ability to protect himself must be King Rui, and he Su Lang also knew how to repay his kindness, so he had been secretly collecting all the evidence of King Ding's crimes.
As for the time of Yuping Mountain, he was still a fellow villager who was now serving the Dingwang Mansion, and he talked about it after he was drunk.
King Huai hesitated for a moment, "Okay, a few of you will come forward with me first, and the rest of you will wait for news at the bottom of the mountain." ”
"Yes, lord."
King Huai followed Su Lang to stagger through the dead woods, and in winter the mountains were full of white expanse, and this group of people walked in the mountains particularly conspicuously.
"Su Lang, why did you choose to denounce King Ding today?" King Huai walked behind Su Lang and said suddenly.
"Lord, originally Su Lang did serve the king, but some of the king's practices were not agreed by Su Lang. Su Lang is clothed, although King Ding is reused, but not everything will be discussed with me, in King Ding's heart, Lin Xiang and Xiao Shizi are his trustworthy people. Su Lang sighed.
When he first met King Ding, he also felt that he had met a nobleman and had a place where he could give full play to his talents.
But I didn't expect that the longer I had contact with King Ding, the more I felt that he was too ruthless.
After leaving Dingwang's Mansion, he was assassinated a lot, but fortunately he was rescued by the people sent by King Rui, otherwise he and his family would not have known where the bones were buried.
"My fifth brother and fifth sister-in-law both said that you are a good talent, but it is a pity that the Bole you met is not good, after this matter is dealt with, I hope you can really serve the fifth brother." King Huai said lightly.
Hearing this, Su Lang didn't agree immediately, if he had put this in someone else's place, he would have jumped to his feet and agreed, but after Su Lang had experienced so many things, he felt that it was better to live a dull life.
"Lord Wang, let's wait until the matter is resolved safely." Su Lang said lightly.
He didn't dare to say that he was dead, if he provoked King Huai to be unhappy, and then King Ding didn't bring him down, would he and his family still want their lives?
Therefore, he can only think about this matter after the king is determined, and when the time comes, he can leave Kyoto with his family and stay away from the rights and wrongs here.
The group had walked for about a stick of incense, and King Huai saw someone patrolling at the entrance of a cave from a distance.
"How many of them are there, and can some of us fight them?" King Huai frowned and said.
If they start a war with each other now, then they will probably not be able to go back alive. These people must be extremely familiar with the environment in the mountains, which they lack.
"Lord Wang, you wait first, and leave it to a few of us to do it." A familiar voice rang out.
King Huai turned his head and saw that it was Jiang Xiao and Ling Xiao, and there was a familiar face, that was Xiao Ziming.
Seeing Xiao Ziming, King Huai was angry, and raised his hand to hit Xiao Ziming.
The other party hurriedly dodged King Huai's attack, "Lord Wang, slow down." Jiang Xiao hurriedly stopped.
"Jiang Xiao, what do you mean by this?" King Huai lowered his voice and gritted his teeth.
"Lord Wang, he is Mu Bai, but he has changed his appearance into Xiao Ziming." Jiang Xiao hurriedly explained.
Mu Bai? He had heard of this name, and it was said that this Mu Bai not only had a very high disguise technique, but even the person's voice and some of his mannerisms were very similar.
If he hadn't revealed his identity and only let others identify him, it would have been difficult to tell the truth from the fake.
"Why are you here? Why didn't I notice you guys? King Huai wondered.
"It was the prince who sent us, after Su Lang said Yuping Mountain, the prince asked us to follow, one is to protect the safety of the prince, and the other is to find out the truth and capture them." Jiang Xiao said lightly.
"Oh, in this way, the fifth brother is still thoughtful, but if the three of you go, will it be dangerous?"
"Don't worry, wait for our signal." Jiang Xiao said in a deep voice.
After finishing speaking, the three of them walked towards the direction of the cave, pretending to be Xiao Ziming's Mu Bai, who was obviously escorted here by the two.
I really didn't expect the people around the fifth brother to be so powerful, thinking of this, King Huai's worship of King Rui couldn't help but be a little more.
Jiang Xiao and Ling Xiao escorted Xiao Ziming to the entrance of the cave, and the guards looked at them very vigilantly.
"Lord Shizi, how did you come from over there?" The man guarding the cave wondered.
Xiao Ziming didn't answer, just hung his head, looking like he was being slaughtered.
"So, you have other paths? That's just right, let's get acquainted with it. Ling Xiao laughed.
"Who are you, let the prince go, otherwise, we will not be polite." A few people guarding outside the cave picked up the weapons in their hands, ready to fight Jiang Xiao and Ling Xiao at any time.
"Your prince fell into my poison and let him lead the way, but it's not what you usually walk, it seems that this poison is not tortured enough." Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.
Hearing this, the guards glanced at each other, thinking that with the large number of people, they could take down Jiang Xiao and Ling Xiao, but unexpectedly, as soon as they stepped forward, the three of them blew a puff of smoke at them at the same time, and several people instantly lost their strength and fell to the ground.
"The effect of this medicine is good, go back, let's let Hongyao use more configurations." Ling Xiao said with a smile.
"Alright, there are other people, let's get moving." Mu Bai reminded softly.
The three of them walked into the cave, and when they passed through the cave, it turned out to be another village.
Outside the cave was an empty flat land, and when I looked up, I realized why they didn't find this place, and from the other side of the mountain, this is a cliff, which is really ingenious.
Immediately, the three of them took out a herbal moxibustion from their arms, and now they only need to light these herbal moxibustion and hide to the side, waiting for the medicine to smell these people with the air, and they will lose their martial arts and internal strength.
This medicine is specially made by Hong Yao, colorless and tasteless, and those soldiers who are training need to take a big breath even more, and after a while, these people will all be paralyzed to the ground.
"I'll send a signal to the prince." Ling Xiao said lightly.
Immediately, he walked out, and after Ling Xiao informed King Huai, he walked to the side of the mountain and signaled in the direction of Kyoto.
The signal flare bloomed in the air with a red flower on the other side, and after Mo Feng, who was guarding outside the public hall, saw the signal, he came to King Rui's side, "Lord Wang, everything is done, presumably after a stick of incense, you can see that King Huai has brought everyone back." ”
"Well, it's better to send a few cars over and pull those people back, so as not to delay things." King Rui said in a deep voice.
"Yes, lord." Mo Feng took the order and walked out.
There was still King Hui sitting in the hall, asking King Ding about other evidence of his crimes, all the things, King Ding was already unable to justify, and he also knew that his hole cards were only a few thousand soldiers and horses from Yuping Mountain.
Now, as long as he waits for the concubine to be in the palace and controls everyone, Ning Guohou will not let him down.
As for Xiao Ziming, he has not been summoned yet, maybe he has already arrived at Yuping Mountain, as long as he breaks into the city with those soldiers and horses, he will immediately ascend the throne and become the emperor.
In this world of the Zhao family, didn't they also mutiny halfway through and claim themselves emperors? There is no one who says that the Zhao family's world is not right.
Who cares who is the emperor among the people, as long as he is powerful enough and has military power, then he is the emperor.
At that time, in the palace, Rugui Concubine was inviting all the concubines and the wives and daughters of the courtiers to enjoy the plum blossoms in the palace.
In the name of appreciating plums, in fact, he wants to take the opportunity to take these people as hostages in his hands, so that he is not afraid that those ministers will not be afraid.
Last time, it was because they didn't do enough to fail, but this time, she has to learn the lesson of the last time and can't repeat the mistakes of the past.
I only heard the sound of a snap, and the sound of a cup and saucer falling to the ground, "I...... My head hurts, and I feel weak. Concubine Hui said softly.
Then, there was the sound of more cups and saucers falling to the ground, and the concubines in the palace were the same as Concubine Hui except for those who were on the same front as Concubine Rugui.
"Sisters, don't be afraid, as long as you all obediently don't do anything, and wait for the matter on King Ding's side to be resolved, this palace will give you an antidote. This palace also wants you to watch the son of this palace become the emperor, and this palace becomes the queen mother. Ru Guifei said proudly.
"Such as the concubine, don't you think, your mother and son are going to kill your head if you rebel, King Rui has returned, and King Ding will never have a chance." Concubine Xi said angrily.
She said this, not because King Hui was friendly with King Rui, but because she was unwilling to prostrate at the feet of the slut Ruguifei and watch her become the queen mother.
Now as long as anyone can pull Ruguifei down, she will be in the same camp with whom.
"Concubine Xi, you are really bold, do you think that if King Hui and King Rui are friends, you will have a good life? After all, you are just a concubine, do you still want to be the queen mother? It's really wishful thinking. After finishing speaking, the concubine laughed proudly.
However, after she laughed a few times, she suddenly froze there, and the Queen Mother, who was supposed to be lying on the bed and unable to move, actually appeared in front of her......
