Chapter 247: Give the King of Chu a needle

Li Xiu'er was sleeping peacefully, and in her dream she dreamed of a little villain, with an evil smile on her face, walking towards her step by step, seeing that she was about to get close to her, and she had already stretched out...

"Knock knock..."

A hurried knock on the door suddenly woke up Li Xiu'er.

Li Xiu'er was a little distracted, and when she woke up suddenly, the scene in the dream was still vivid, she blushed, shook her head hurriedly, and asked, "Who?" ”

"Madam, just now the steward of the front yard came to report, Lord Zhou Mingfa asked to see me! At this time, he was waiting in front of the house. The voice of a maid came from outside the door.

Li Xiu'er frowned, why did Xiao Yiheng's second uncle come in a hurry at this hour? She immediately thought of Xiao Yiheng pretending to be unconscious, could it be related to this matter?

She was secretly vigilant, but thinking of Xiao Rui's reminder that the little villain kept herself out of the matter, she put on her clothes and went to the mansion.

"Uncle, why are you in such a hurry?" Seeing Zhou Mingfa, Li Xiuer owed a debt and asked.

A smile appeared on Zhou Mingfa's serious face, and he said: "I dreamed at night, I dreamed that the toxicity of King Chu was aggravated, and the more I thought about it after waking up, the more worried I became, so come and see, if he is okay, I will go back, and I can rest assured to take a look." ”

Li Xiu'er naturally didn't believe this, but said: "Uncle cares about His Highness, if His Highness wakes up, he will definitely be moved." Uncle, I'll take you there. ”

Zhou Mingfa said: "No need, it's very hard for you to take care of the King of Chu, go back to sleep early, let the next person take me to take a look, I'll go back if it's okay." In addition, I took advantage of the curfew to run out, don't make a noise about this matter, and the people in the house should also warn me to avoid being known by the imperial history, and I have to be impeached again, more things are better than less things. ”

"Uncle, don't worry, then I won't accompany you, I will order someone to take you over." Li Xiuer deliberately yawned to indicate fatigue, which was exactly in line with Zhou Mingfa's rhetoric.

Subsequently, Li Xiuer ordered the maid to take him to the bedroom where Xiao Yiheng was resting.

In the underground secret room, Xiao Yiheng was talking to a middle-aged woman, he had just finished introspection, and he would not be so anxious to show aggression in the future, so as to avoid the advantage becoming a disadvantage, and there was a sound of footsteps in other passages, and a man in black appeared.

"Your Highness, Lord Zhou Mingfa, the left attendant of the Criminal Department, has come to the mansion and is walking towards your room." The man in black said.

Sure enough, the passages connected to this hall all lead to other locations in the Chu Palace. And these black-clothed people are the most hidden power at Xiao Yiheng's hands, and even the henchmen on Wang Fuming's face don't know.

Under normal circumstances, they are all hiding outside, but this time for the sake of planning, Xiao Yiheng used this power.

"Why is he here?" Xiao Yiheng was surprised, he looked back at the middle-aged woman.

The middle-aged woman also frowned and said, "Yes, His Highness claims to be unconscious, why did he come in person so late?" Could it be that he knew that His Highness was pretending to be unconscious? ”

The man in black said: "Your Highness, the villain didn't dare to approach, for fear of attracting the attention of the guards and the forbidden army, so he didn't hear the purpose of Lord Zhou's coming. ”

The middle-aged woman asked, "Your Highness, do you see it?" ”

Xiao Yiheng hesitated.

If he is gone, just go up and continue to pretend to be unconscious. But Zhou Mingfa is his uncle, and he is the backbone of supporting his ascendancy, and when he suddenly comes to see him at this time, there must be a big event, because Xiao Yiheng has never seen him in such a hurry, if he doesn't see him, wouldn't it be troublesome if he delays the big event?

He also has his maternal grandfather Xiguo Gong behind him, and he is implicated in many things.

Moreover, considering that he still has to pretend to be in a coma for several days, if he doesn't send a word to Zhou Ming, let him know that he is fine, and appease his grandfather and them, in case Xiao Lie takes the opportunity to spread rumors that he will not wake up, within four or five days, he will be able to form a voice of discussion, and the situation he has managed to occupy will also crack.

After all, the civil and military officials are supporting themselves, and if they lack their backbone, what support can they talk about?

"See! Tell him the situation, let him not worry, help me maintain the situation in the court, and avoid the tricks of King Jin and other princes! Xiao Yiheng said.

The middle-aged woman pursed her lips, she wanted to suggest that Xiao Yiheng not see, continue to pretend to be unconscious, and spend the next few days, but considering Xiao Yiheng's worries, she didn't speak.

After making up his mind, Xiao Yiheng immediately returned to the room, and as soon as he went to bed and lay down, the door was opened.

I only heard Zhou Ming say: "You are all waiting outside, look around, and don't let people approach." ”

After speaking, Zhou Mingfa entered the house, closed the door, he walked to the bed side of the bedroom, and said in a deep voice: "There are no outsiders, get up!" You are really foolish, you are so presumptuous, you actually designed to assassinate the King of Jin! ”

Xiao Yiheng was still pretending to be unconscious on the bed, but when he heard Zhou Mingfa's words, he sat up suddenly and said in shock: "Uncle, where did you hear that?" ”

"Where does that sound from? You wrote to me yourself, you are confused! After Zhou Mingfa finished speaking, he took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Xiao Yiheng.

Xiao Yiheng hurriedly opened the letter paper, and when he looked at it, he found that the handwriting on the paper was ninety percent similar to his own, and it was no problem to deceive Zhou Mingfa.

As for the content of the letter, Xiao Yiheng was even more stunned.

The paper reads: Uncle, I pretended to be poisoned and unconscious, and secretly sent someone to assassinate the King of Jin, and now His Majesty has known the truth and removed the imperial doctor as a punishment. It is estimated that he will have to pretend to be in a coma for a few days, for fear of causing an accident, so he specially invited his uncle to come at the end of the day to discuss important matters.

"Who gave you this letter?" Xiao Yiheng was shocked.

"A man in black stuffed it into me, that dress, isn't it the subordinate you recruited, what kind of Yang organization. And your own letters, and fake? I didn't believe it at first, but the more I thought about it, the more I thought it was true, and now it's true! Zhou Mingfa sighed and said: "You are a prince and a concubine, why do you want to do such a thing, now that Your Majesty knows, you naturally have a diaphragm in your heart, you are self-defeating!" ”

Xiao Yiheng hurriedly said: "This letter was not written by me, I was in a coma during the day, and I would wake up at night, and even the cronies in the house hid it, just for fear that there would be spies who would be bought by outsiders, and I was even more on guard against Dongchang spies to ensure that nothing went wrong." I don't understand how my father knew about my plan, and now you have a letter in fake handwriting, uncle... Oh no, we've got it! ”

"Medium? You're so careful, who else can guess your plans? And what's the plan? Is it possible to expose you for pretending to be unconscious? Also, what did you call me for? Zhou Mingfa also frowned, full of doubts.

At this time, outside the gate of the house.

Zhang Jinfu, the Marquis of Zhongyong, personally brought the soldiers of the elite patrol battalion to the palace of the king of Chu, controlled Zhou Mingfa's carriage, and found unknown poison and a letter from the carriage.

And beside Zhang Jinfu, there were still Xiao Lie, the king of Jin, and Xiao Mingying, the king of Zhou, the sect commander of the Zongren Mansion.

The soldier presented the found poison and letters to Zhang Jinfu, who forwarded it to Xiao Mingying and said, "Lord Zhou, it's better for you to look at it." ”

Xiao Mingying nodded.

As soon as he fell asleep at night, he was disturbed by Xiao Lie, who came in a hurry, and when he met, he said conclusively: The assassination of the King of Chu and his own assassins was all assigned by Zhou Mingfa, the left attendant of the Criminal Department, and implored him to call the shots.

Xiao Mingying was stunned on the spot and asked, "Zhou Mingfa is the uncle of the King of Chu, how can he assassinate his nephew?" And, where did you learn all this? ”

Xiao Lie explained, "The assassins who assassinated my nephew in the early morning were not ten, but actually eleven, and one of them hid in the shadows, and when he saw that the assassination failed, he quietly fled. But this person panicked, was discovered by the master in my house, quietly followed, saw him return to Zhou Mingfa's mansion, and met Zhou Mingfa. Uncle Huang and nephew know that this cannot be regarded as evidence, and it may be slandered by the emperor when it comes to his father. However, this morning, His Majesty transferred the imperial physician of the Chu Palace, didn't you notice the strangeness of Uncle Huang? My father knows everything, and knows that Xiao Yiheng was not assassinated and poisoned, but was stunned by his own people, Zhou Ming was vicious, and even the King of Chu designed it, that is, while getting rid of suspicion, he instructed the assassin to assassinate me! That's why my father punished King Chu and transferred the imperial doctor! ”

"Uncle Huang, please make the decision for your nephew and accompany your nephew to the palace of the king of Chu, last night the assassin failed to assassinate the nephew, Zhou Mingfa will definitely wake up the king of Chu. Now is the time to get the stolen goods! ”

After speaking, Xiao Lie bowed down.

Xiao Mingying also sensed that His Majesty was wrong with withdrawing the imperial doctor, but he never thought that it was the king of Chu who was in a coma, after all, there were so many imperial doctors, how could he pretend. But now with Xiao Lie's revelation, he also has to suspect that if it is true, the purpose is to assassinate Xiao Lie!

Xiao Mingying took a deep breath and knew that something was wrong.

In addition, Xiao Lie's rhetoric is too flawed.

He concluded that it was Zhou Mingfa who instructed him just by following the master in the house? Do you firmly believe that Zhou Mingfa will go to the Chu King's Mansion tonight to detoxify the King of Chu?

"Uncle Huang, please go to the palace of the king of Chu with your son, and if there is indeed such a thing, please ask the uncle to make a personal witness. If not, it is the nephew's miscalculation, and the nephew is frightened and becomes a frightened bird, and he will enter the palace tomorrow to ask for guilt. Xiao Lie said earnestly.

Xiao Mingying sighed, when it comes to the killing between the princes, he, as the commander of the Zongren Mansion, is bound to come forward, and Xiao Lie has said so, go and take a look.

When Xiao Mingying agreed, he went out of his palace only to find that Xiao Lie had also called the Marquis of Zhongyong, and there was this scene of gathering in front of the Chu Palace.

Xiao Mingying came back to her senses, opened and searched for the secret letter.

The letter was very straightforward, saying:

"Lord Zhou, the assassination failed, please arrange for us and other members of the organization to leave the capital as soon as possible, everyone in Dongchang has already noticed our traces, be sure to hurry. Rising sun. ”

Xiao Mingying accepted the letter, he felt that he was deep in the whirlpool, so don't judge without permission, today's matter will inevitably cause trouble to His Majesty.

Therefore, he said to Zhang Jinfu: "Master Hou, let's go in and have a look." ”

Zhang Jinfu ordered someone to step forward and knock on the door.

According to the time calculation, Zhou Mingfa had just entered the Chu Palace, and Xiao Lie and others came, so before Li Xiu'er returned to the room, he was told by a hurried subordinate halfway that King Jin, King Zhou, and Marquis Zhongyong were coming.

Li Xiu'er realized that something big had happened, and she turned back to the front of the house.

"Uncle Huang, His Royal Highness the King of Jin, Lord Hou, why are you here?" Li Xiuer was surprised.

Xiao Mingying asked, "Princess Chu, did Zhou Mingfa go to see the King of Chu?" He came here in the middle of the night, but what did he say? ”

"As soon as Lord Zhou entered the front foot, the three of them arrived, and he said that he dreamed that his husband was not in a good condition, so he came to take a look, and went back after taking a look." Li Xiuer said.

Xiao Mingying and Zhang Jinfu glanced at each other, Zhou Mingfa really had a problem! It's so late, just because of a dream to see the King of Chu? Could it be that what Xiao Lie said is true, the assassination of King Jin failed, and he hurriedly came to detoxify and wake up Xiao Yiheng tonight?

King Jin was secretly happy in his heart, but his face was silent, and he hurriedly said: "Uncle Huang, Lord Hou, let's go over now, we will definitely be arrested on the spot!" ”

Xiao Mingying nodded, and then said to Li Xiu'er, "Can we go and see King Chu?" ”

Li Xiu'er hesitated.

If she turns into anyone, she will definitely not agree, because this is the Chu Palace! The private residence of the king of Chu, not to mention the loyal and brave marquis, even the king of Jin did not dare to break in. Although Li Xiuer hates Xiao Yiheng, she also knows how to measure.

However, the person who came was Xiao Mingying, he was the commander of the Zongren Mansion, and he was the emperor's uncle, he wanted to see Xiao Yiheng, how to stop him? And before Xiao Yiheng fell into a coma, he did not order outsiders to enter the house.

"Uncle Huang came in person, so naturally he could." So Li Xiuer did not refuse everyone to enter the house.

Xiao Mingying nodded, and said to Li Xiu'er: "Trouble Princess Chu, let the guards and forbidden troops who are patrolling in the Chu Palace's palace guard in place, and prohibit anyone from ventilating and reporting the news, Master Hou, you should know the room where the King of Chu is resting, you can take someone forward." ”

"Okay, I will order someone to follow Master Hou with me, and there will be no one to stop me." Li Xiuer responded.

"Yes!" Marquis Zhongyong immediately clenched his fists, and immediately hurriedly entered the mansion with a steward arranged by Li Xiu'er.

At the same time, in a room near the door of the mansion, there was a man in black hidden, who was the secret person arranged by Xiao Yiheng.

When he saw another person entering the house, he peeked secretly to see who was coming. When Zhou Ming came, there were bright lanterns, so he could see his face clearly, but when Xiao Lie and the others came, they were disguised by the night, so there were only a few lanterns behind Li Xiu'er, and the lights were a little dark.

When he looked closely, he found that one of them was Zhongyong Marquis, and he was so frightened that he yelled badly, and hurriedly sneaked into the secret passage to inform the middle-aged woman.

However, at this time, Marquis Zhongyong had already led people to Xiao Yiheng's residence, and there was no time for people to pass on the situation.

The middle-aged woman heard the report of her subordinates, saying that the Marquis of Zhongyong, the King of Jin, and the King of Zhou brought people into the mansion, and she realized that Xiao Yiheng and Zhou Mingfa were meeting at this time, and he was not suitable to appear, so she hurriedly pulled a rope in the corner.

Xiao Yiheng was talking to Zhou Mingfa when suddenly a bell rang from under the bed.

Xiao Yiheng's expression changed, and just as he wanted to go out to check, he heard footsteps outside the door.

He immediately turned back and said to Zhou Ming: "It's not good! Someone is coming, improvise! ”

After saying that, go to bed and pretend to be unconscious.

Zhou Mingfa looked puzzled, and the door was kicked open by Zhang Jinfu, the Marquis of Zhongyong, and he rushed in with someone.

When he saw that the person who came was Zhongyonghou, Zhou Mingfa's face changed greatly, and then he understood what Xiao Yiheng meant, and scolded: "Bold! Zhang Jinfu, this is the palace of the king of Chu, you dare to break in and break in, you have no law! ”

Zhang Jinfu hugged his fists and said: "Lord Zhou, this marquis was ordered by the king of the Zongren Mansion to inform the princess of Chu before entering the mansion, and it is not considered a trespass." As for breaking in, I am also concerned about the safety of the King of Chu, and tomorrow I will truthfully show Your Majesty and be willing to be punished. ”

"King Zhou? Why did he send someone? Zhou Mingfa panicked.

"Lord Zhou, don't worry, the prince will be here soon." Zhang Jinfu said with a smile.

Zhou Mingfa felt bitter in his heart, and finally understood what Xiao Yiheng meant by the scheme, it seems that he came here tonight and completely fell into the trap of others.

Xiao Mingying and King Jin arrived.

Seeing Xiao Lie, the king of Jin, Zhou Mingfa was even more aware that something was wrong, but he didn't dare to show panic on his face, but said respectfully: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu, Lord Zhou, why are you gathered here tonight?" Could it be that he is also worried about the King of Chu? The king of Chu is still unconscious, so don't disturb him to rest. ”

Xiao Mingying said: "Lord Zhou, just now the patrol battalion found poison in your carriage and the secret letter from the Yang organization, do you have anything to explain?" ”

"What? Poison and the secret letter of the Yang organization? How can it be! Hugh will wronged his own officials. Zhou Mingfa immediately denied it, he knew that he had been tricked.

"Then can you admit to the crime of poisoning the King of Chu and sending someone to assassinate the King of Jin?" Xiao Mingying asked.

Zhou Ming said hoarsely: "Lord Zhou, although you are a prince, you can't slander the court officials at will!" Tomorrow morning, this official will tell His Majesty truthfully. ”

Xiao Lie, the king of Jin, shouted: "Lord Zhou, you came here late at night just to see the unconscious King of Chu? ”

"Nature." Zhou Mingfa responded.

"But I heard that you are here to detoxify, is the King of Chu awake now? In order to cover you, so you are still pretending to be unconscious? But it doesn't matter, I invited a miracle doctor, he is good at acupuncture, maybe he can wake up King Chu! King Jin waved his hand, and a middle-aged man walked out behind him.

Zhou Mingfa's face changed greatly, and he immediately stopped beside the bed, and said, "No, the king of Chu is unconscious now, what if acupuncture hurts his body!" ”

"Haha, Lord Zhou is so panicked, is what this king said true?" After Xiao Lie was sarcastic, he looked at Xiao Mingying again: "Uncle Huang, what do you say?" ”

Xiao Mingying glanced at Xiao Yiheng, who was unconscious on the bed, sighed, and said, "Let's let Lang Zhong try it!" Give the King of Chu a needle! ”

Xiao Lie was overjoyed, and immediately gave the middle-aged man a look, this person rushed forward, Zhou Mingfa wanted to stop it, but was pushed aside by this person.

When he came to the bedside, he took out a silver needle from his cuff and was about to start.

Xiao Yiheng, who was on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes.

"You dare!"

Xiao Yiheng knew that he couldn't hide it, he was calculated step by step tonight, and the people behind the scenes expected that he would wake up, and invited Xiao Mingying, the king of Zhou, and only the old prince of the Zongren Mansion could break in with the king of Jin, otherwise they would not be able to break in at all with the king of Jin or the marquis of Zhongyong.

Moreover, Xiao Yiheng also guessed that the enemy who planned all this was not himself, but his uncle, Zhou Mingfa!

The more he thought about it, the more Xiao Yiheng felt a severe chill.

His Majesty could guess that he was pretending to be unconscious, which had already panicked his heart, and now that someone knew about his plan, and designed it, he was even more frightened.

And seeing Xiao Yiheng sit up, Xiao Lie was pleasantly surprised, but his eyes were filled with hatred.

Xiao Mingying sighed, King Chu really wasn't unconscious!
