"How did Aiqing come up with the idea of using this method to get me out of the palace?" As soon as Emperor Xian calmed down, he couldn't wait to ask. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Liu Yong first bowed down and pleaded guilty: "Your Majesty, please forgive the ministers for being rude and letting the emperor suffer such grievances." ”

Emperor Xian smiled: "Aiqing saved me and his wife, what is the crime, please hurry up and talk about it." ”

"Yes!" Liu Yong straightened up and replied, "The minister has been in and out of the palace gate for more than two years, and he has seen that the other doors have been searched very strictly, but the cart that pulls dung is rarely checked. Even if you want to check, it's just for show. ”

The ambush soldier asked, "Is the old man who pulled the dung your man or bought it?" ”

"Neither. It's too secret, and the less people know about it, the safer it is. "Outside the city, we made a car that was exactly the same as the one in the city, except that the car was divided into two tiers, the upper deck was filled with dung, and the lower deck was a dark compartment. The palace pulls dung once every three days, so we looked for an opportunity to change the two cars and try to see if anyone saw the flaws. Sure enough, neither the defenders nor the old man noticed. ”

Emperor Xian said puzzledly: "It's just that after the space is made under the car, there will naturally be less dung installed, why didn't everyone find it?" ”

Liu Yong secretly praised Emperor Xian's cleverness and smiled: "Your Majesty doesn't know anything. The planks used to build this car were thinner and a few inches deeper, and the capacity was almost the same as the original car. ”

Emperor Xian nodded, and asked again: "In the past few days, I have been practicing with the queen pretendedly, and the inner servants also believed it. Aiqing left one person behind, so that he could handle the meals sent every day to show that I was still there. It's just that if I don't show up for a long time, the attendants will inevitably be suspicious, and I am afraid that it will not be long before they find out. ”

"Your Majesty is very worried. However, Liu Yong has already arranged this matter, and please rest assured that Your Majesty. Liu Yong told the whole plan and the plate, and Emperor Xian laughed after hearing it, and his confidence increased greatly. Fu Hou covered her mouth and smiled: "I didn't expect that Liu Qing's family had such a talent, and in my opinion, Cao Cao is not your opponent." Liu Yong's heart was bleeding, and it was for Song Jiu, who stayed in the palace.

"What about the rest of Aiqing's subordinates?"

"They left the city a few days ago, and are now stationed not far from the front." Liu Yong said. "Your Majesty, then Cai Wenji also followed the minister."

Xian Diqi said: "Is Cai Qing here too?" ”

"Yes. Cai Yan pretended to go out of the city for a winter trip, and also brought out the minister's family. ”

After Fu, he was surprised and delighted: "Then there will be no loneliness on the road." Your Majesty, we can listen to Cai Qing's story while walking. ”

Emperor Xian smiled bitterly: "This place is not far from Xu. I still can't rest assured, so I'd better hit the road sooner. In fact, Liu Yong also has some worries, the carriage is too slow, and he is afraid that there will be trouble after a long delay. It's a pity that neither the queen nor the sable cicada can ride a horse, so they have to do it.

Soon. The two groups converged. Liu Yong wanted to offer the emperor tired for a night, so he asked to rest in the car first, and ordered the men and horses to be divided into three teams, one team to the front to investigate, one team to press the formation behind, and he took a large team of men and horses, slowly marching towards Xiangyang.

Besides, in the palace of Xudu, as usual. The chamberlains did not care about Emperor Xian, and occasionally secretly listened to it a few times, or heard that Emperor Xian and Empress Fu were arguing in a whisper because of playing chess. Either the two are reading to each other and seem to be living very comfortably. However, people are not as good as heaven, and after Cao Cao pacified Hebei, he wanted to ask for rewards for the soldiers and ministers, and he needed to offer the emperor and cover the jade seal. The attendants asked for a long time outside, but the emperor was just not allowed, and the jade seal was not handed over.

I couldn't do it left and right, so I had to report to Cao Ren. Cao Ren didn't care about the courtesy of the monarch and the minister, so he ordered someone to forcibly open the palace to offer the emperor's seal. I don't know that except for a person dressed as an inner servant, there is no figure of the emperor and the queen.

Cao Ren was surprised and asked the man, "What about the saint?" ”

The man held a small porcelain vase in his hand and looked sarcastic. Cao Ren was about to scold. Someone next to him pulled his shirt and whispered, "General, this person is not from our palace." ”

Cao Ren was shocked and angry: "Who are you?" Where did you hide the Holy Treasure? ”

The man's face was full of mockery, and he replied proudly, "You don't want to know where the Holy One has gone? After speaking, he raised the porcelain vase in his hand. Tilt your neck and drink it into your stomach.

"Hold him on." Cao Ren saw that this person was taking poison, if he died, who would I ask. For a while, the eunuchs and soldiers all came out to restrain the man. The man did not resist, but allowed his hands and feet to be bound. At this time, someone came up with the idea of asking for a doctor, but someone said that he would pour fecal water first and spit out the poison. Noisy and noisy. The man laughed and said: "This medicine is useless, even if it is an immortal, haha......" After a while, the laughter gradually decreased, and a handful of dark red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

When Cao Ren saw that this person was about to die, he was angry and anxious, and shouted: "The herald orders to close the four gates and search from house to house, even if you dig three feet into the ground, you have to find the emperor for me." He also reprimanded those chamberlains and palace maids, saying, "What are you eating, I don't know where the saint has gone." Come on, tie up all these people, and wait for the prime minister to fall. ”

The deacon and the palace maid fell to their knees and cried, "The general is wrong to blame us." Not long ago, the Holy One was scolding us. Everyone spoke in unison, and they all heard Emperor Xian speak.

Cao Ren was suspicious in his heart, could it be that there was a tunnel dug in the dormitory? He also asked the soldiers to turn the bottom into the sky in the dormitory, but there was not even a rat hole, Cao Ren was anxious, how to explain this matter to the prime minister, could it be reported to him that the saint suddenly disappeared out of thin air?

Cao Ren wanted to cry without tears, and there was nothing he could do, and someone said on the side: "It's better to invite Mr. Zhongde to discuss." Cao Rendeng's eyes lit up, and like a drowning man touching a piece of wood, he hurriedly ordered: "Hurry up and invite Mr. Cheng." ”

After a while, Cheng Yu was out of breath and trotted all the way into the palace, and Cao Ren told everything about what happened and what was strange. Cheng Yu listened and pondered, and suddenly asked, "Who has the emperor seen these days?" ”

"The emperor has only seen Liu Yong and Cai Yan."

Cheng Yu nodded and said to Cao Ren: "The general immediately ordered someone to go to Liu Yong's mansion, and by the way, ask Cai Yan if he is still in the prime minister's mansion?" What about the spy? I'll take a look at it again. ”

Cao Ren saw that Cheng Yu had found a breakthrough in solving the case in an instant, and he was so impressed that he threw himself to the ground, and a glimmer of hope suddenly ignited in his heart. After a while, the people sent came one after another to report, "Miss Cai has not returned home for many days"; "Everything in Liu Yong's mansion is the same, but the family members are not in the mansion. Liu Yong also left a letter in his room. ”

Cao Ren took the letter, as long as it was written with the five big characters "Cao Cheng's blind date". Cao Ren said angrily: "It must be that Liu Yong who coerced the saint out of the palace." Cheng Yu said: "General, please show the letter to Cheng Yu." ”

Cao Ren was stunned and said: "This letter is for the prime minister, how can we open it privately?" ”

Cheng Yu smiled bitterly: "The prime minister left the two of us to guard Xudu, but now the saint is missing, the prime minister has tracked it down, do we still have a life?" Cao Ren was speechless, so he had to hand over the letter to Cheng Yu.

After Cheng Yu read it, he was both admiring and sentimental, Cao Ren was anxious, and urged: "Sir, tell me quickly, is the saint going with Liu Yong?" Cheng Yu handed over the letter, but Cao Ren didn't answer it, and said hurriedly: "I won't read it, and the gentleman will tell me." ”

"There is nothing holy in this letter." Cheng Yu was about to get angry when he saw Cao Ren, and said, "No, Cheng Yu can conclude that the Holy Lord must have left with Liu Yong." Seeing that Cao Ren still didn't believe it, Cheng Yu said again: "General, think about it, now in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, who else is credible and trustworthy in the emperor." Since Liu Yong has left a book and left, His Majesty will walk with him. ”

Cao Ren pondered for a moment and said, "What Mr. said is extremely reasonable. Just now one of the chamberlains said that the saint was still there an hour ago, and I am afraid that he has not yet left the city, so I will order the left and right to search from house to house. ”

"Wait a minute, General. That Liu Yong has been out of the city for more than half a month, and it is impossible for him to come to pick up the emperor today, there must be a reason. Cheng Yu pointed to the body of the dead man and said, "How did this person enter the palace?" ”

Cao Ren gasped and said, "I didn't think about it. I asked the deacon and the palace maid just now, and they all said that they had never seen this person. ”

"Not necessarily." Cheng Yu snorted, "Everyone was worried just now, so they didn't care. Then he said to a kneeling palace maid, "You go and fetch a basin of water." ”

After a while, the palace maid brought water to him, and Cheng Yu ordered: "Wash his face clean." "When the palace maid saw that this man was dead, she was afraid, but it was important to save her life, so she had to endure her fear, took out the handkerchief in her arms, wet it in the basin, wrung it half-dry, and gently wiped the man's face." Hey! The palace maid exclaimed softly, and when everyone looked, the skin of the linen cloth became lighter, and it turned out that this person's face was covered with a thick layer of oil paint.

As soon as the paint on the man's face was washed off, one of the chamberlains exclaimed, "I know this man." He is Song Jiu, the little servant who carries the medicine box for Liu Yong, and often goes in and out of the palace. A few more people echoed this call, and they all recognized it.

Cheng Yu said: "Since everyone says that this person is Liu Yong's attendant, and this person is in the emperor's bedroom, the emperor must be with Liu Yong." Does the general think what Cheng Yu said makes sense? ”

Cao Ren was sincerely convinced: "Fortunately, Prime Minister will leave Mr. in Xudu, otherwise Cao really doesn't know how to deal with it." It's just that I still don't know, first, how did the saint get out of the palace; Second, when did the Holy One leave? ”

Cheng Yu smiled bitterly again, and said, "Cheng Yu still doesn't know how the saint left the palace, but I know when the saint left the palace." ”

Cao Ren was surprised: "When did you leave the palace?" ”

"As I expected, good. The day Liu Yong left the city was the time when the emperor left the palace. ”

"But everyone said that the saint is still in the palace today." Cao Ren still couldn't believe it.

Cheng Yu asked the kneeling attendant, "Do you all think that the Holy One is still in the palace today?" And they all prostrated their heads. Cheng Yu said sharply: "Have you ever seen the face of the saint with your own eyes? Tell the truth, otherwise immediately put to death. The people were so frightened that they did not dare to respond. After a while, a eunuch finally said: "I just heard the saint and the queen talking, but I have never seen a face." Then another person said: "I once pierced the window paper to take a look, but the emperor found out and scolded me." However, this was half a month ago, and no one dared to peek at it again. ”

"I see!" Cheng Yu sighed and said, "Liu Yong, you are really a good means." (To be continued.) )
