Before the storm, it was unusually quiet.

The people in the dark are peeking at the life and death of Emperor Xia, whether they can make a move. Xiao Rui and the others are also waiting for each other to show their feet.

At this time, there were three female officials in the East Palace who knew about this plan, one was Yan Xiaoxiao, she heard that Xiao Rui was in a coma and suddenly contracted a vicious disease, and was immediately frightened to the point that the six gods had no master, and then took the initiative to run over while the early dynasty was not over, and when she came to the East Palace, not only her eyes were red, but her hands were trembling, and she didn't care about being punished at that time, even if she was killed with a cane, she had to come to see His Royal Highness. At that moment, Yan Xiaoxiao knew how important His Royal Highness was in his heart, and even filled his heart.

Yan Xiaoxiao's running made it difficult for Li Yuanfang, and in the end he could only take Yan Xiaoxiao to the crown princess Zhuge Liuying and Li Ruoxue. The two girls looked at Yan Xiaoxiao's pear blossom with rain, and almost knelt down just to see Xiao Rui.

Seeing such a lovely girl crying so sadly, Zhuge Liuying and Li Ruoxue glanced at each other, helpless and unbearable to refuse, and then took Yan Xiaoxiao to see Xiao Rui.

At that time, Xiao Rui didn't wake up because of the medicinal power, Yan Xiaoxiao threw herself on the side of the bed and cried with grief, or Li Ruoxue couldn't bear it, and secretly told her the plan, which stopped her crying, and then her face was ashamed, today is a shame.

The second female official is none other than Lu Su.

According to the plan, Lu Su has been killed, so she can't run around, she must honestly stay in the East Palace and pretend to be dead, and she can't let others find out about her, otherwise her previous efforts will be wasted.

As for the third female officer, it was Azhu.

The reason why Azhu was brought into the palace was not to play mahjong, as the saying goes, three women play a play, and now the five women are mixed up, even Xiao Rui, who boasts of being able to calm the scene, will not find trouble for himself. Letting Azhu come requires her superb camouflage skills, which can make this scheme more realistic in detail.

At this moment, Azhu is not idle, he has already made a human skin mask in an expeditious way, at this time, there is a corpse on a master bedroom bed in the East Palace, the size and height are close to His Majesty, at this time not only changed into a dragon robe, Azhu is wearing a human skin mask and makeup for him, and it didn't take long for him to become Your Majesty!

This is a death row prisoner that Zhuge Yuanba secretly sent his henchmen in, and its role is naturally to pretend that His Majesty's corpse is for the secret people to see, how can they rest assured if they don't see it!

This death row prisoner is also worth it, and he can wear a dragon robe once after death, and some of them blow in hell.

Just when everything was ready and everyone was waiting quietly, there was a sudden movement outside the palace.

Unexpectedly, the first one to come was Tang Wang Xiao Yan's carriage. The carriage stopped in front of the noon gate, and Xiao Yan hurriedly entered the palace after getting off the carriage, but was stopped by the forbidden army.

Xiao Rui raised his royal order, he thought it was a new forbidden army and didn't know him. But the forbidden army stubbornly said: "His Royal Highness the King of Tang, Zhuge has an order prohibiting anyone from entering or leaving the palace. Please also ask Your Highness to forgive your sins, the villains also do what they are told! ”

"What? No one is allowed to enter or leave the palace? That certainly doesn't include this king, is this king a human being? This king is a handsome guy! Get out of the way! This king is going to see the crown prince, and I heard that he is sick, and the situation is still very serious! Stop me, watch out for my mighty dragon! Xiao Yan shouted, and raised his palm.

He borrowed the pseudonym of his seventh brother in "Journey to the West", and created a monk named Fahai, whose most powerful means is Dawei Tianlong!

When the two forbidden soldiers were in a dilemma, Zhuge Yuanba came in person, hugged his fists and said: "His Royal Highness the Tang King, I'm sorry, it is His Majesty's will to prohibit anyone from entering and leaving, including the prince." Without His Majesty's edict, the last general really can't let His Highness enter the palace. His Royal Highness is concerned about His Royal Highness the Prince, and the general will be able to understand, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has his own natural appearance, and he will be fine. ”

"Father's will?" Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows, and suddenly didn't dare to make a fuss.

Just then, another carriage came, and it was two.

I saw King Xiao Lie of Jin and Princess Yuqing get out of the carriage, and the two sisters and brothers entered the palace at the same time.

"King Tang is also here, what's going on?" Xiao Lie asked.

Xiao Yan relayed the news that His Majesty would not allow him to enter the palace, Xiao Lie was also surprised, and then said: "Commander Zhuge , can't we go to the harem to meet the concubine?" ”

"Yes, can't you ask to see your mother?" Princess Yuqing asked.

Zhuge Yuanba shook his head and said, "No! No one is allowed to enter the palace without His Majesty's dictation! ”

The forbidden army was so resolute that the three of them became more and more curious about what was going on, and their hearts were like cats, after all, this was the first time they had seen this kind of thing, but since His Majesty had asked for it, they were ready to go back.

Coincidentally, it seems that they all rushed together, and Huo Xingye, the secretary of the military department, also hurried over.

Seeing the gathering in front of the noon gate, he also showed a look of surprise.

Zhuge Yuanba's eyes narrowed instantly, then returned to normal, and then hugged his fists and asked, "Huo Shangshu wants to enter the palace?" ”

Huo Xingye nodded and said, "Marquis Chang Sheng sent an urgent military report, there is a big incident in Zhao State, and this official needs to tell His Majesty in person!" ”

Zhuge Yuanba smiled and said the ban again.

After Huo Xingye heard this, he shook the military report in his hand and said: "This matter is extremely important, and it must not be delayed, and I also ask Zhuge Dutong to inform Your Majesty, if Your Majesty is willing to see this official, won't you have an edict?" ”

Zhuge Yuanba was embarrassed, then nodded and returned to the East Palace.

Coming to the East Palace, Zhuge Yuanba's future people reported one by one, after Emperor Xia heard it, his face did not change much, and now he can't suspect anyone, but he can also suspect anyone, so he can't think about it much, it's easy to have an accident.

"Since it's an urgent military report, it's impossible not to see it, Li Aiqing, you can go." Xia Huang said with a smile.

Li Mingchong, as the first assistant of the cabinet, had the unshirkable responsibility to go out this time, so he went out to meet Huo Xingye in person.

Huo Xingye didn't expect Lord Shoufu to come out in person, and immediately hurriedly bowed his hand. After Li Mingchong met with Xiao Yan, Xiao Lie and Princess Yuqing, he and Huo Xingye moved elsewhere, and Li Mingchong said, "What happened to Zhao Guo?" ”

Huo Xingye hurriedly reported to Li Mingchong, and after Li Mingchong saw it, he nodded and said, "I will tell Your Majesty about this matter, Huo Xingye should go back to the military department." ”

"Xia Guan dared to ask, what happened?" Huo Xingye couldn't help but ask.

Li Mingchong glanced at him coldly, turned around and went back to the palace.

Huo Xingye was not angry, and then turned around and left. Xiao Yan and the three of them didn't watch any drama, so they could only go back to their respective homes.

Li Mingchong returned to the East Palace, and the general reported it to Emperor Xia, who read it and handed it to Xiao Rui, Xiao Rui took a look, it turned out that the Qin army was like a bamboo, and it had already defeated the army of the Zhao army, and there was only less than two hundred miles left from the Emperor Zhao! The people of Zhao were terrified, compared to the ruthless iron blood of the Qin army, the territory occupied by the Xia State was a good place, so many people began to cross the river to the east, wanting to return to Great Xia. Chang Shenghou rushed the military report, whether to ask His Majesty what he meant, whether to receive it, or to stop it.

Emperor Xia said with a smile: "Now that I and the crown prince have something to do, this military report will be drafted by Li Aiqing personally, and the sea companion will approve it." ”

This matter is a major matter, related to the governance of the area east of the Qijiang River, all of which are personally approved by His Majesty, and now Li Mingchong gives his opinion, as long as he takes it out, it will inevitably be discovered, which is also proof from the details that Emperor Xia has an accident. Otherwise, with Li Mingchong's character, he would never dare to do this.

Now that the noon gate is so strictly guarded, and no one is allowed to enter or leave, will it stump the secret instigators, so that they cannot confirm the life and death of His Majesty?

Do not worry! The stricter it is, the more it means that there is a problem! And the implicit instructor must have thought of this situation, so there must be another way to verify!

Xiao Rui, they just need to wait and see, don't worry, take your time.

Before you know it, it's getting dark.

Except for Xiao Yan, Xiao Lie, Princess Yuqing and Huo Xingye who asked to see His Majesty, there was no one else, which showed the cunning of the secret commander.

The East Palace was happy, Xiao Rui asked Xiaoxiao to prepare a hot pot, and everyone made a hot pot to replenish the meat fat when the winter was about to begin.

After eating and drinking, Li Mingchong and Xiao Mingying, the king of Zhou, just left the palace, and the two could not stay in the palace overnight, even if "Your Majesty had an accident".

After leaving the palace, the two got into their respective carriages and returned home.

The driver who drove for Xiao Mingying was quite trusted by him, and he had followed him for more than ten years, and when he helped Xiao Mingying into the carriage, he found that Xiao Mingying's movements were very stiff, and he sat in the car rubbing his stomach, sighing with a sigh on his face.

Xiao Mingying didn't dare to say it directly, so she could only slander in her heart:

"Hey..."

"You shouldn't be greedy, the hot pot tastes so good, it's just that it's too troublesome to eat, it's going to kill me, oops..."

It turned out that it was overwhelmed.

But Xiao Mingying's performance fell in the eyes of the coachman, but it was completely different. The groom's eyes were lowered, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly as he lowered the curtain.

After sending Xiao Mingying back to the palace, Xiao Mingying regained her composure, didn't see anyone, and went directly to the study. After making sure that no one was following him, the groom secretly went to a place and met Lu Ao and the mysterious middle-aged man, who had been bought and stayed by Xiao Mingying's side.

The groom truthfully informed Xiao Mingying's performance, and said in a chiseled manner: "Sir, the villain has followed Lord Zhou for more than ten years, and he knows the character of Lord Zhou best, and his painful expression is definitely not a disguise, he must have suffered some big change in the palace!" ”

When Lu Ao and the middle-aged man heard this, they were even more convinced of the news of Emperor Xia's accident.

Waving his hand and letting the coachman retreat, Lu Ao smiled and said: "Ten of the best Emperor Xia was assassinated, and now Xiao Mingying and Li Mingchong are blocking the news because they want to wait for Xiao Rui to wake up, he is the crown prince and can preside over the overall situation." But Xiao Rui can't wake up, and he will inevitably break his soul in three days. ”

The middle-aged man nodded in agreement, but said: "For the sake of insurance, you must see the true situation of Emperor Xia, and if you don't confirm the death, it will never be exposed!" Even if Emperor Xia only has one breath left, everyone has to be honest. ”

"Sir is thoughtful." Lu Pheasant smiled.

……

In the early morning of the next day, hundreds of civil and military officials went to court, but they were all rejected in front of the noon gate.

The civil and military officials were puzzled, and they didn't dare to ask more, so they went back to their respective homes, maybe they could sleep again.

And Li Mingchong and Xiao Mingying continued to rush to the East Palace to fight the landlord.

It didn't take long for Zhuge Yuanba to suddenly hurriedly enter the East Palace and say, "Your Majesty, the queen mother is here!" ”

Everyone playing cards in the house was stunned, and Xiao Rui was also quite surprised, why did Queen Zhou Xiangyun come?
