Liu Guifei, escorted by King Qing and Shi Yong, finally rushed back to the palace before the unitary time, Liu Guifei got off the carriage and was carried straight to Hongguang Pavilion by Shi Yong. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Liu Guifei, with the support of Xiao Xiang, had just entered the Hongguang Pavilion with her front feet, and when she saw Shi Hu sitting there watching the folds, she cried and shouted: "Your Majesty! ”

As soon as Shi Hu heard that it was Liu Guifei's voice, he raised his head and saw that Liu Guifei was limping towards him with the support of Xiaoxiang, so he immediately got up, greeted him, hugged Liu Guifei, and said very distressedly: "Aifei, don't cry, don't cry, just come back, just come back." ”

Liu Guifei was lying in Shi Hu's arms, crying pear blossoms with rain, sparsely choked: "The concubine almost can't see Your Majesty." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, now that you've returned to the palace, no one dares to do anything to you in this palace." Shi Hu said, helped Liu Guifei to sit down, and then turned around and asked Shi Zun with a serious face: "I heard that you were also in that broken Taoist temple last night, you tell me what is going on." ”

Shi Zunxian bowed to Shi Hu and said calmly: "Back to my father, last night about the time of the son, the son had just fallen asleep, and vaguely heard the sound of a fight outside, father, you know, the son has been on the battlefield for a long time, and is very sensitive to this kind of fighting, so he immediately got up, drew his sword and rushed out of his room. ”

Shi Zun paused, glanced at Liu Guifei, who was sitting not far away, and continued: "After Erchen ran out, he found that someone shouted that there was an assassin, Erchen immediately ordered someone to prepare a bow and arrow, and he ran in the direction where the sound of fighting came. ”

"How many people did you take up the mountain?" Shi Hu asked.

"The sons and daughters are not counted, they are all personal soldiers in the house, arranged by the housekeeper, about fifty people."

"It's a shame for you to say that you have been on the battlefield for a long time, and the fifty government soldiers under your command plus a dozen people under Wen Cang actually only captured one assassin, killed two, and ran away three! Are you all rice buckets! Shi Hu pointed at Shi Zun's nose and scolded.

Shi Zun was scolded enough to be aggrieved, but he didn't dare to make more excuses, at this time, Liu Guifei on the side cried and said: "Your Majesty, why do you want to scold King Qing like this?" If he hadn't made a timely move last night, His Majesty wouldn't have seen the concubine at this time, you see that King Qing was slashed by the assassin in order to save the concubine! ”

Shi Hu glanced at Liu Guifei, turned his head to look at Shi Zun's left arm that was still tied with a strip of cloth, and said in a slightly gentle tone: "What about the assassin who was captured alive?" Where are you now? ”

"Enlighten the father, the son has ordered someone to send the assassin to Dali Temple to be imprisoned, and wait for the fate of the father."

"What else is there to do? Push it out and cut it! Chop and feed to the dogs! Shi Hu roared.

"No! Can't just be so cheap that assassin, there must be someone behind this matter, Your Majesty must mention the concubine to administer justice! Liu Guifei suddenly shouted.

When Shi Hu heard this, Liu Guifei's words also made some sense, and said to Shi Yong: "Shi Yong, you go to Dali Temple to see in person, if that damn assassin recruits who the mastermind is, come back immediately and report to me!" ”

After Shi Hu finished speaking to Shi Yong, he turned around and sat back in his place, looked at Shi Zun, who was still standing there in an orderly manner, and asked, "Then tell me about it, why can three of the six assassins still run away?" ”

"Father, these assassins have very high martial arts, and they must not be ordinary people who can send assassins with such skills. After Erchen and Deputy Commander Wen subdued the assassin, it was not Erchen's soldiers who chased after the three who fled, but the men under Deputy Commander Wen, and Erchen's soldiers went to seal off the entire Taoist temple at that time, and then searched every room. So why did the three people escape, my father probably had to ask Deputy Commander Wen. ”

"Go to Xuan Wencang, come here!" Shi Hu instructed Lu An.

"Yes......" Lu An hurriedly ran out.

Shi Hu saw Lu An running out, so he picked up the teacup and wanted to drink tea, but suddenly stopped, looked at Shi Zun with a suspicious face, and asked, "You have always disbelieved in ghosts and gods, why did you suddenly run to Wolong Mountain?" Don't tell me that you went to burn incense and ask for a wish. ”

Of course, Shi Zun knew that Shi Hu would definitely ask him this question, and replied calmly: "My father's birthday is imminent, although my sons have never believed in this, but I heard that the Qianshengguan incense in Wolong Mountain is prosperous, and many people are admiring it, so Erchen plans to pray for his father's blessing, hoping that his father's dragon will be healthy, and he happened to meet the concubine Niangniang on Wolong Mountain." That's why I saved the concubine later. ”

"Are you telling the truth?" Shi Hu was obviously a little skeptical of Shi Zun's words.

"What the son said is true, please check it out to my father!" Shi Zun's expression was very sincere, and he knelt down and kowtowed after speaking.

"Your Majesty, why are you like this? King Qing saved the concubine, you still doubt him this suspicion that, yesterday the concubine met King Qing in Wolong Mountain has asked him, King Qing said that he is in Li City all the year round, can not be filial piety by His Majesty's side, so he is still in the capital, go to Wolong Mountain to burn incense and pray for you, don't you even believe your own son? Liu Guifei spoke for Shi Zun on the side.

Shi Zun lowered his head, secretly proud in his heart, it was obvious that Liu Guifei had now stepped into her camp with half a foot.

Shi Hu took Concubine Liu Guifei in his arms and said, "I didn't distrust him, I just asked about the situation, Concubine Ai is not even?" ”

"The concubine is telling the truth, if you have a mistake, you should be punished, and if you have merit, you should be rewarded! That Xihua Hou is just your adopted son, you still named him Hou after making military achievements, King Qing is your biological son, who saved your woman, but you don't give a good face everywhere, so if the concubine is in danger again, who will dare to save the concubine? ”

Shi Hu was a little embarrassed by what Liu Guifei said, raised his head and was about to say something to Shi Zun, Wen Cang wrapped a strip of cloth on his head and walked into Hongguang Pavilion.

"Wechen see Your Majesty." Wen Cang respectfully saluted Shi Hu.

"I just heard King Qing talk about the situation last night, and what you two said is basically the same, but I heard King Qing say that the people who pursued the three escaped assassins at that time were all your men, right?"

Wen Cang glanced at Shi Zun, who was kneeling beside him, and replied, "That's right, it is indeed the dozen or so guards under Wei Chen." ”

"Write out the list of those people." Shi Hu said, gesturing to Lu An's eyes.

Lu An'an understood and put the pen and ink in front of Wen Cang, Wen Cang didn't understand Shi Hu's intentions, but he also obediently wrote down more than a dozen names and handed them over to Lu An.

Lu An was about to hand over the list to Shi Hu, Shi Hu waved his hand and said, "Don't show it to me." ”

Lu An looked at Shi Hu suspiciously, Wen Cang didn't understand, Shi Hu shouted outside Hongguang Pavilion: "Someone!" ”

"In!" Several guards outside the Hongguang Pavilion ran in and shouted to Shi Hu in a respectful salute.

"Pull all these people out of the list and cut them down!" Shi Hu commanded the mighty guards with tigers and bears, and then pointed to what Lu An was holding in his hand.

"Commandment!" Those people replied in unison, and then one person stepped forward, ready to take over the list in Lu An's hand.

"Your Majesty! You can't kill these people! Wen Cang reacted at this time and hurriedly pleaded with Shi Hu.

"You shut up for me, I didn't kill you because you have been loyal for so many years, and for the sake of saving the concubine! If you dare to talk more, I will cut you down! Shi Hu pointed at Wen Cang to warn him.

"Your Majesty, these dozen brothers are also loyal to Your Majesty, if they hadn't pestered the remaining five assassins this time, I'm afraid that Weichen and King Qing would not have been able to successfully subdue that assassin and save the concubine Niangniang, please be gracious to Your Majesty!" Wen Cang said, ignoring the wound on his head, he kowtowed heavily to Shihu, and soon, blood flowed down again.

"Kai'en? A dozen of them can't catch three people! How can you defend this palace with such skills? How else can I protect the safety of the rest of the palace? ”

"This can't be completely obedient to the dozen or so brothers, the six assassins who assassinated the concubine Niangniang this time, each of them is extraordinary, if it is a single fight, except for the great commander in the forbidden army, I am afraid that no one is their opponent, this point, Your Majesty can ask His Royal Highness King Qing, at that time, he joined forces with His Royal Highness King Qing to barely subdue the assassin."

Shi Hu looked at Shi Zun, who was kneeling on the ground, and asked, "Just now you said that these assassins are extraordinary, and Wen Cang also said so, could it be that your collusion is good, I'm afraid that I will blame you?" ”

"Back to my father, my son will never deceive my father, what Deputy Commander Wen just said is true, the assassin who fought with my son is indeed extraordinary, if it weren't for Erchen's soldiers who took the opportunity to shoot him with arrows, Erchen and Deputy Commander Wen may not be so easy to catch him."

Shi Hu looked at Shi Zun and Wen Cang, who were kneeling on the ground, and ordered the few guards standing at the door, "You go out first." ”

The guard who stepped forward to get the list returned the list to Lu An, and they all withdrew from Hongguang Pavilion.

"Get up." Shi Hu glanced at the two of them lightly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wen Cang kowtowed respectfully and stood up, but his eyes were already full of tears.

Shi Hu glanced at Wen Cang, and then asked Shi Zun, "Is there anything else you want to tell me?" If so, tell me everything. ”

"Father Qiqi, that's basically it, the rest depends on whether the assassin locked up in Dali Temple can confess who the mastermind is!"

"I must figure this out! At the foot of the Son of Heaven near Yecheng! There are still people who dare to assassinate women! What a daring thing!" Shi Hu slapped the table angrily.

Shi Zun and Wen Cang stood there and didn't dare to say anything, and they didn't move.

Shi Hu glanced at the two of them, waved his hand and said, "Okay, you guys go back." ”

"Yes!" Wen Cang and Shi Zun saluted in unison and retired.

After speaking, he withdrew from Hongguang Pavilion.
