Yu Wenhuaji's death is like a drop of water falling into an oil pot, a small drop, which makes the originally peaceful situation begin to chaos again. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 After Empress Xiao returned to Jiangdu, she relocated Yang Guang's body and buried it under Duke Wu in Jiangdu, and led the ministers to the sacrifice. In the chanting of many senior monks and Taoist priests, Empress Xiao respectfully put an incense on Yang Guang's spiritual seat, prayed sincerely, and the emperor Yang Qi, Xiao Milling and others behind her also looked cautious, only Du Fuwei, Fu Gongqian and the people under them looked uncomfortable.

"Gnaw nibble!" A cough came over, and Empress Xiao looked in the direction of the voice.

"The Queen Mother! Your Majesty, the old minister has occasionally felt cold recently, and he is a little unwell, please forgive the emperor and the queen mother. ”

"Da Sima doesn't have to be polite. If you feel unwell, go back to your home and rest! ”

"Humble retired!" Laihu'er saluted Yang Qi and Empress Xiao, and when he left Wugongtai, the attentive people saw a detail, that is, Laihu'er originally came on horseback, but now he was in a carriage. In the evening, Empress Xiao secretly came to Laihu'er's mansion.

"Ahh Empress! ”

"Come to Heng, come to Ji, don't be polite, is your father's health better?"

"Since the death of the first emperor, my father has suffered from heart disease, and he may not be able to adapt to the water and soil in Jiangdu, so he can't hold on after returning from Wu Gongtai, and he just vomited a mouthful of blood and lay down."

"Good! Take me there. Empress Xiao came to Laihu'er's bedside. Laihu'er's face was not good, and there was still blood on the side of his mouth.

"Ahh Niangniang, the minister didn't know that Niangniang had arrived, and she was far away, please forgive me! After speaking, he got up from the bed and saluted to the Empress Dowager Xiao. Empress Dowager Xiao stopped him quickly.

"Da Sima, hurry up and excuse me. How's the body? You are a pillar of my Great Sui, and you must not fall. ”

"Niangniang, Weichen's health has not been as good as before recently, and now he is dragging his breath and not leaving, just because he has a few words to say to Niangniang".

"Da Sima, but it doesn't hurt to say it!" Lai Hu'er spat blood as he spoke:

"Wechen wanted to avenge the virtuous brother, and one day the queen mother and the emperor returned to Luoyang, but it can be said that I know that the day is not a holiday, Wechen is afraid to go to see the emperor, in addition, according to Wechen's observation, the auxiliary prince is very ambitious, and he has already shown his ambitions on that day, and the queen mother's nephew Xiao Milling is also an unwilling generation, to say something that should not be said, when Wechen is alive, they have a little scruples, once Wechen follows the emperor, they will definitely join forces to force the palace, force Niangniang to take out the jade seal of the country, and plot to be the emperor." Listening to Laihu'er's words, Empress Xiao's face showed a look of disappointment, but she also had to agree with Laihu'er's statement.

"Da Sima, the mourning family also knows that up to now, my Great Sui is at the end of the road, and I originally planned to rely on your strength to revive my Great Sui, but now it seems that this is all providence! I only ask Da Sima to take care of his body and keep a trace of blood for the emperor. Laihu'er nodded.

"Niangniang, the minister has a strategy, maybe it is a good path for Niangniang and the emperor."

"Da Sima, please speak."

"If you are now torn apart, if you want to protect yourself, the only way to do this is to change your face, sneak back to Chang'an, and take refuge in Li Yuan。。。。。"

"Why Li Yuan?"

"! Weichen's words haven't been finished yet, what I want to say is not just Li Yuan, but Li Yuan's eldest son-Li Jiancheng! First of all, Li Jiancheng is Niangniang's son-in-law, this person is different from Yu Wenshi, from the point of view of his rescue of Luo Shixin, this person pays attention to feelings, just with the help of it. can protect the emperor and the mother. As he spoke, he looked at the Empress Dowager Xiao, who had no intention of refutating.

"Second, Li Yuan is the cousin of the former emperor, and Niangniang has a kinship, when I was an official in the same dynasty as Li Yuan, I had a friendship with him, knowing that this person is hypocritical, pay attention to reputation, do not bully the weak, not arrogant, Niangniang to go to the down-and-out relatives, do not go as the queen mother, and take the jade seal of the country as a gift to help him succeed, he will definitely repay Li with peach and treat Niangniang and the emperor well." Seeing that Empress Dowager Xiao's face was still a little reluctant, Lai Hu'er deliberately raised her coughing voice.

"Da Sima, take care of your body!"

"! The minister has another word to tell. ”

"Da Sima, please speak!"

"Back then, if the emperor could not be greedy for the glory status and return to Luan as soon as possible, I am afraid that there would be no change in Jiangdu, and now Niangniang clearly knows that Xiao Mo and Fu Gongqi and others have ill intentions, and it is unwise to stay here. The ancients had a cloud, and a gentleman did not stand under a dangerous wall. I hope the Queen Mother will act as soon as possible! Empress Dowager Xiao pondered for a while and nodded painfully. Laihu'er's face was a little happy.

"Heng'er, Ji'er."

"The child is here!"

"When you arrive, you will escort Niangniang and the Queen Mother all the way, remember, if Niangniang and the Queen Mother do not arrive in Chang'an safely for a day, you will not be able to leave their side for a day."

"Father, your body!"

"Swear by poison! If you don't safely escort Niangniang and the emperor to Chang'an, the two of you will not be able to be supported by heirs, and you will not be allowed to come to the ancestral grave like me after death. ”

"Father!"

"Swear a poisonous oath!" After Lai Heng and Lai Ji followed their father's instructions and swore a poisonous oath, Lai Hu'er smiled happily.

"Hmmm! This is the good offspring of our family. The Queen Mother rest assured, these two sons are all loyal people among my sons, and I will hand over this important task to them Weichen rest assured, as for how to leave Jiangdu, please plan quickly. ”

Late at night, at the residence where foreign officials were housed in Jiangdu, the assistant said to Du Fuwei:

"Big brother! Today, I see that the body of the protector is a little frivolous, and his face is pale, I'm afraid that time is running out. In my younger brother's opinion, we should have planned early. ”

"Princess! We still don't want to think about this kind of thing, you know, I Du Fuwei used to be a fisherman, if it weren't for this world, I wouldn't have raised troops and fallen into the grass, fortunately, the Queen Mother recruited An, and gave you and my brother an official knighthood, so as long as the Queen Mother is here, I will not rebel. The assistant prince was bored with himself, and was about to leave, when Du Fuwei muttered to himself:

"The Queen Mother is here, I won't move!"

Xiao Milling Pavilion, Xiao Mill's cronies Gu Hanzhi said to Xiao Mill:

"Lord, today I see that the Hu'er is vain and unstable, I'm afraid that the days are numbered, from the perspective of the humble ministers, we should have made plans early."

"Hmmm! Very good! You quickly write a secret letter, and order Dong Jingzhen and a few of them to quickly mobilize troops and horses, ready to respond at any time, as long as Laihu'er dies, we will wave our army into the palace and seize the jade seal. ”

"Yes! Subordinates understand! A few days later, Lai Hu'er said that he had recovered, and the Empress Dowager Xiao was overjoyed, and issued an order in the name of the emperor, and two days later, a banquet was held in the main hall to celebrate. On the day of the banquet, Xiao Miao, Du Fuwei, Fu Gongqi and others came to the gate of the palace and waited to open the door to enter the palace. At this time, the frame of the child also arrived. Seeing that his face was ruddy, his body was light and vigorous, and everyone was a little puzzled.

"Yo! Isn't this the Great Sima? Is Da Sima's health better? ”

"Hahaha! Ben will just be old, and occasionally feel the wind and cold! Thank you for your thoughts. ”

"Where, where! Now there is only the general in the world of the Great Sui, and if the general falls, the world of the Great Sui will really collapse. Lai'er heard the thorn in their words. Nor do they speak. Only he himself knows what the reason is. Three days ago:

"Father, these three-day soul recovery pills can only allow people to survive for three days, that is to say, it overdraws the physical strength of the whole person, and he will definitely die after three days, is it worth it for you to do this?"

"Ji'er! For the body of the father, the father knows that the time is running out, and the first emperor has the grace of reinvention for me! As a father, he can only repay him with this mutilated body now. Also, you and Huan'er also want to develop in their careers, your brother came to Yuan to take refuge in Yang Xuangan and caused me to suffer the shame of being a traitor to my family, today, let me use this life to wash away! Thinking of this, Laihu'er smiled. Suddenly, the palace door opened, and a large number of internal guards ran out of it.

"Oh no, the emperor and the queen mother are missing, everyone look for it!" The officials present were all shocked, and the assistant shouted:

"The emperor and the queen mother must have been killed, quickly notify the garrison outside the city, hurry up and enter the city, block the four gates, and search for the emperor and the queen mother." Xiao Mo looked at Lai Hu'er and was about to ask something, but when he saw that Lai Hu'er had been dead for a long time, he had a satisfied smile on his face.
