Chapter 65: Luo Shize is exposed
It's night, the lights in the imperial study are still bright, under normal circumstances, foreign men are not allowed to spend the night in the palace, but at this time, they can't take care of it, Lin Chen'an and the three ministers are still thinking hard about countermeasures.
"Your Majesty, it's time to ring the death knell!" Gonggong Zou reminded softly, in fact, according to the etiquette system, the death knell should be sounded immediately after the death of the Queen Mother, but Lin Chenan suppressed this matter, so it has not been announced yet, but this is already the limit, and many people already know it, and if you hide it again, I am afraid that there will be more rights and wrongs.
"Knock it!" Lin Chenan had a headache, and rubbed his forehead again, and he didn't know how many times he had done this today.
The sound of the death knell slowly drifted in the night sky, like a thunder that exploded in the night sky, so that many people were not calm, after the death knell, the palaces began to be busy, and the people began to take down the lanterns at the door, replace them with white ones and rehang them.
Half an hour later, the women of each palace came out, headed by the concubine, all of them walked towards the palace of the queen mother, all of them walked over step by step, and the accompanying people were all wearing white lanterns, which looked quite strange from a distance, like a wandering spirit.
At this moment, Luo Shize is in the dark, looking at all this coldly, the death knell will ring, he is not surprised at all about this, it is precisely in this way that it is more convenient, there are more people leaving, no one will care, right?
Just when everyone was at the funeral, Ah Qi had already instructed his subordinates to transport the body of the Queen Mother back to her own dormitory, and the person who took over was the Queen Mother's eldest girl Hunchun, she already knew the news of the Queen Mother's death, and even she knew about Mama Chang's death, but she didn't have time to think about anything, so she was arranged to deal with the aftermath for the Queen Mother.
Hunchun is not a timid person, or he is bold in front of the Queen Mother, he doesn't feel scared, just sad, tears keep dripping on the ground, Ah Qi didn't appear, but he didn't leave, he looked at the girl in front of him and felt very strange, how could someone like Lin Caier really feel sorry for her?
Hunchun is a very careful girl, scrubbing Lin Cai'er little by little, and then changing into the most dignified clothes, and then carefully depicting her makeup, all of which seems to be serving the living Lin Cai'er.
"Concubine Niangniang, Your Majesty has a will, and the affairs of the harem will be arranged by Niangniang!"
Hunchun had just finished depicting the last stroke for the Queen Mother, and the voice of Father-in-law Zou came from the door, he didn't enter the door, and left after speaking.
"Queen Mother, look, Your Majesty doesn't want to come to see you!" Hunchun's voice was very low, and he was already a little choked up in the end.
"Hunchun girl!"
The concubine's voice sounded behind him, Hunchun turned around, and there seemed to be tears flashing in his eyes, but he stubbornly refused to fall.
Seeing this scene, Tu Yanyan sighed in her heart and comforted her: "Miss Hunchun is so reluctant to the Queen Mother, I want to know about the Queen Mother, and I must be gratified!" ”
Hunchun didn't speak and looked back at the Queen Mother, the whole person was kneeling on the footsteps, and his back was very weak. Tu Yanyan was not angry, and was about to kneel down when she walked beside her, and the sharp-eyed little girl had already put on the mat. Tu Yanyan knelt for a while, and someone came to report that the other concubines had been waiting for a long time.
Tu Yanyan got up and came to the door, there were already a lot of concubines standing outside, she took a general look, but was interrupted when she was about to speak.
"Hurry up, the Jiaofang Palace is out of water, you guys come with me, go put out the fire!" A eunuch hurriedly walked into the courtyard, in fact, his voice was not loud, but it was just about to speak, and the courtyard was very quiet, so this was heard by everyone.
"Jiaofang Hall walks the water?" Tu Yanyan frowned, this matter must not be simple, is it ...... When she looked at Xiao Jiu beside her again, she was also a little surprised, and she didn't seem to know what was going on.
"Jiaofang Hall walks the water?" This news also spread to the imperial study, Lin Chen'an was not calm, why did everything go to the Jiaofang Palace?
"Your Majesty, it is said that a palace maid was stimulated and said that the Jiaofang Hall was not clean, so she burned it with a fire, and people were inside!" Zou Gonggong reported in a low voice.
"That's it!" Lin Chen'an couldn't take care of a lot: "Send more people, don't burn to other palaces, as for the Jiaofang Palace, burn it!" ”
Just when everyone's eyes were focused on the Jiaofang Palace, Luo Shize had already arrived at his destination, the Queen Mother was dead, the emperor was in a hurry, and the Jiaofang Hall was directly on fire, but there seemed to be no movement in the courtyard in front of him, as if there was no one!
Luo Shize made a gesture, and his subordinates began to approach slowly, but the closer he got closer, the more Luo Shize felt that there was a problem, definitely not an illusion, there was really a problem! Luo Shize seemed to suddenly think of something, and directly made a gesture to stop everyone from advancing, only to see him take out something from his arms and throw it directly into the yard, almost at the moment when the thing entered the yard, the sound of the sleeve arrow sounded.
There is an ambush!
Luo Shize pursed his lips, that secret guard is really a master, but I don't know if there is a Zhen Zhen here!
"Enter!"
Luo Shize didn't have time to hesitate, he gave the order directly, and in an instant, more than a dozen figures jumped into the courtyard one after another, only Luo Shize and another subordinate were still outside, and that person was specifically responsible for protecting Luo Shize. As Luo Shize imagined, there was an ambush in the courtyard for a long time, but Luo Shize's actions also exposed those people, so the two sides fought together.
There are not many people in ambush, but all of them are masters, although the palace is in chaos now, but if it continues to be entangled like this, it will definitely suffer. Luo Shize didn't do anything, and directly spilled some white powder, and those people reflexively covered their lips and noses, but at this moment, Luo Shize's people launched a more fierce attack, but in a moment, those people gradually lost their strength and showed a defeated state.
Luo Shize bypassed those people and led people directly into the room, the location of the secret room had already been investigated, they easily entered the secret room, the secret room was not big, there was a person hanging in the middle, his hair was scattered, and he couldn't see his face clearly.
Luo Shize slowly approached, at this time, a person walked in front of him and directly blocked his whole person, they are not stupid, this person may not be a princess, everything must be careful, and in any case, protecting Luo Shize is the most important thing, that person saw that Luo Shize was no longer moving forward, so he slowly approached that person, trying to pick the other party's hair with the sword in his hand!
Just as the sword was about to touch his hair, the man moved!
"Fake!" The man had barely had time to say that when he was impaled by a sword that appeared out of nowhere in the man's hand.
Luo Shize took a step back, and the people around him instantly surrounded him.
The man looked up, it was a girl, very strange, but he knew by looking at his skills, he must be the same as the secret guard. It's just that at this time, Luo Shize suddenly realized that he still underestimated that person.
It was also at this time that Luo Shize realized what he had overlooked, how could such an elite secret guard, the secret room in their lair, be discovered so easily? But if so, where is Vera?
Reality didn't give Luo Shize time to think about it at all, and the woman instantly danced with a sword, without too fancy moves, and the sword was cold.
"Kill!" Luo Shize directly ordered that it was better not to live such a person.
Luo Shize is not a person who loves war, but he is already very angry, this woman must die! It's just that at this time, there was a sudden sound of fighting outside the door, which made Luo Shize instantly have a bad premonition, weren't those people poisoned? How could it be......
Without a moment's hesitation, he directly exited the secret room, and his subordinates also fought and retreated when they saw this. The courtyard is not peaceful, those who have just been poisoned are still fighting, just need a glance, Luo Shize knows what happened, it seems that these people have taken a large number of antidote pills in advance, but their poison is domineering after all, and it still has some impact on them, so although they can still fight, but compared to before, their movements have been much sluggish.
"I'm so disappointed to be here!"
I don't know where a person came out, standing next to the courtyard wall at the moment, the sword in his hand is not unsheathed, it seems that he is just watching the excitement.
That's him!
With just one glance, Luo Shize guessed that that special secret guard was him, but so what, the current situation, let alone saving Zhen Zhen, it would be good if he could get out, but I don't know what happened to Qin Bai.
Luo Shize pulled out his long sword, how many years has he not touched this thing? Looking at the long sword in his hand, a kind of excited light gradually appeared in Luo Shize's eyes, it was this kind of light that made the shadow a little excited, and he gradually pulled out the sword in his hand.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of birdsong in the night sky, the sound was not loud, but everyone present heard it, and in an instant, everyone's expressions were wrong, especially the shadow, he didn't care about Luo Shize at all, he turned around and left, the woman also followed, Luo Shize wanted to go, but was stopped by the rest of the people, and it took some time to get out.
After the shadow got out, he flew all the way to Lin Chen'an's dormitory, but when he arrived, Lin Chen'an fell to the ground upright, and the door of the secret room was closed, but the shadow had no doubt that there were no more people inside, how could this be?
Looking at Lin Chen'an on the ground, the shadow couldn't control so much, he stretched out his hand to check Lin Chen'an's pulse, and then frowned, and smashed the door of the dormitory with one palm, and the people rushed to hear the sound, and the shadow disappeared until the first person was about to enter the door.
"Your Majesty has fainted, quickly pass on the Imperial Doctor!"
In an instant, the palace was also in a mess!
The Queen Mother died, His Majesty was so worried that he fell unconscious, this matter has been circulating in the capital for a long time, but what is the truth of the matter, those who know will never dare to say it!
