Chapter 498: High Priest

Xiao Chumo sat behind the bookcase, looking at the ministers who were still trying to persuade him to bury the concubine in the imperial tomb yesterday, suddenly changed the direction of the wind, and began to be shameless one by one, and even took the rules of the palace and did not even want to let go of the corpse, he only felt very ridiculous.

However, such thoughts are at most just thinking about themselves, after all, he specially called these people into the palace this time, not specifically to watch their wall-like performances.

Waiting until these ministers have echoed each other enough, Xiao Chumo said: "Although the rules are set like this, the death of the concubine is not very good, and the body is really not suitable for exposure to the sun after being put for so many days, so let's put this rule aside and let people be buried first!" ”

His last sentence was the same thing that these ministers had said yesterday when they persuaded him, and as soon as he said it, it was as if he had heard the sound of a slap in the face. However, these wall grasses did not have the slightest awareness of being slapped in the face, and they still persuaded them for a long time. Originally, Xiao Chumo called them over for the burial of the concubine, and secondly, he hoped that they could keep this secret, no matter what their colleagues in the DPRK and China said, but at least it could not be spread outside.

There was some suppression by Xiao Chumo's momentum and means, and these ministers naturally nodded one after another, not daring to have the slightest opinion. As for the concubine who stole people, as long as she didn't enter the imperial mausoleum, it was easy to say, anyway, she didn't actually make a name for herself in the palace when she was alive, and even the title of concubine was given by Xiao Chumo for the sake of their tenacious vitality. In the end, as soon as everyone summed it up, they had two propositions - either dig a pit on the edge of the imperial tomb and bury people; Either that, the body was transported back to the concubine's maiden home to see if her mother's family could let her go to her ancestral grave.

Anyway, no matter which one it is, Xiao Chumo thinks it's feasible, anyway, his purpose is not here, this move is just to let those ministers stop bothering him about this matter. So, the coffin that had been placed in the concubine hall for two or three days was finally sent out, and as for how to deal with it in the future, it was none of his business.

And when he came out of the palace, Xiao Chumo specially arranged something else, that is, to let people go to the capital to spread another rumor.

said that it was a rumor, but in fact, it was just a different way and a way to tell the news that the little emperor had been cured. Because Xiao Chumo knew very well in his heart that if he wanted to overturn the previous rumors and that panicked atmosphere, the best way was for another highly credible rumor to spread, and spread it as powerful as possible than the first one.

I have to say that Xiao Chumo really has a thorough understanding of people's hearts, and the people he sent out only stood in the crowd and mentioned a few pre-arranged words, and those words spread throughout the capital with lightning speed. This speed is far faster than the government posting notices to refute rumors one by one.

The previous rumors about the uncleanliness of the palace were quickly put to rest, and people began to talk and wonder who the master who had cured his fright with a decoction of medicine was. And Xiao Chumo took advantage of this opportunity to draw up a holy decree, in addition to the things that he promised to reward Qianqiu before, he also specially gave him the title of high priest.

Qianqiu didn't refuse this, but the place where he lived moved from the Regent's Mansion to another mansion that Xiao Chumo set up for him, the high priest. Whenever he saw someone, he still had a gentle smile on his face all the time, and he looked as if he was harmless to humans and animals.

On the day he moved into the new mansion, because he remembered that Xiao Chumo and others had taken care of him these days, Qianqiu specially prepared a large table of wine and food to feast on the latter and his party. Because there were no outsiders, the host and guest were all very drunk, and it was not until dusk that Xiao Chumo and the others came out of Qianqiu's mansion.

"There are too many things in the house, so I won't send you, go slowly."

It was Chiaki who spoke, and he also looked drunk, and he was squinting his eyes at the moment, and his appearance seemed to be a little confused.

Xiao Chumo and the others were not the kind of people who were calculating, so they waved their hands and said goodbye to him. Everything seemed to be very normal, but it wasn't until the carriage carrying the sign of the Regent's Mansion completely disappeared around the corner of the street that the confused look on Chiaki's face disappeared in an instant.

He stared at the direction where Xiao Chumo and the others left for a long time and never returned home, the expression in his eyes was unpredictable, and he didn't know what he was thinking about in his heart. After a long while, there seemed to be a little noise coming from nowhere, and Qianqiu came back to his senses, and before returning home, he glanced at the dark place without leaving a trace.

As soon as he walked in, he headed straight for his study. There was no one in the mansion who had just moved in, only a maid and a servant who had been given to him with the mansion, and they had already been spent by him to purchase things at this time.

After confirming that there was no one else in the house, a figure suddenly appeared in Qianqiu's room. However, this is not a nephrite warm fragrance sent to the door, the person who came is indeed a man with five big and three rough, and he can even see at a glance that this is a practitioner, and his kung fu should be quite powerful.

However, it is such a master who has come and gone without a trace, but when he saw Qianqiu, he couldn't show the slightest arrogance and contempt, and after meeting, he saluted the latter very respectfully, and then said: "The master's trip is still smooth?" ”

"Everything is under control. Looks like you've done everything I told you to do? ”

An indifferent voice came out of Qianqiu's mouth, and it could be seen that he was very familiar with the man who suddenly appeared, and even had a master-servant relationship. And unlike the appearance shown in front of people on weekdays, at this time, Qianqiu's face did not have a gentle smile, but showed a somewhat cold and gloomy look.

"Yang Yu's thing that is not enough to succeed and more than to lose, even if he can't do things, he is so stupid as to leave evidence so blatantly, so that others can find out at a glance!"

Qianqiu cursed in a low voice, and the Yang Yu he was talking about was the name of the concubine who died in the palace.

In fact, when he was in front of Xiao Chumo and others, he lied, it was not the first time he came to the capital, nor had he never entered the palace. Even the two major events that happened in the palace one after another are inextricably linked to him. In Qianqiu's view, he exists to overthrow the current imperial court.

At the beginning, Situ Ye was ambitious, but he had a little force to be afraid of and the family wealth that the old prime minister secretly left him. Such a brainless guy, he only used a few words and a book of forbidden exercises to easily let it be used for himself, and even the blood curse Gu worm, which was later used by Situ Ye as a hole card, was also sent out of his hands.

It's just that what Qianqiu didn't expect was that Xiao Chumo was really a variable, not only did he not die tragically under the blood curse, but he even fought back and smashed his chess piece!
