Chapter 139: The Eighteen-Year-Old Empress Dowager (7)

"It seems that there is really something wrong with such resistance.

Zongzheng, let's send someone to check now, a few of you, someone knows where His Majesty is now, don't struggle, even if you don't say it, we have a way to find out.

The palace is so big, and we have so many people, even if we turn the palace upside down.

It must be to find out His Majesty.

Don't hurry up and explain. ”

Taishi He's reaction at this time undoubtedly made several other princes around him, including Zong Zheng and Qiao Mu, more convinced that the emperor's death was indeed a bit unusual, and it was very likely to be an unnatural death.

Therefore, Ling Wang Ye immediately asked loudly.

However, the next situation was still a little different from what he expected, and the ministers he questioned were all at a loss, and it was obvious that they didn't know where the emperor's body was.

Even in the next second, they all involuntarily turned their heads to He Taishi.

There is no need for anyone to ask at this moment, everyone also knows that the breakthrough point has to be placed on Master He, so Lord Ling immediately walked in front of Master He in two steps, stretched out his hand and pinched Master He's chin and asked:

"Are you still going to be us?

Or what are you waiting for, you've already failed, what else do you expect?

If you are not afraid, then you can destroy the three clans and destroy the nine clans, I remember, your family just held the first birthday banquet of your little great-grandson some time ago.

This king advises you to get acquainted with each other as well. ”

Threatening people, King Ling Qing really didn't fear anyone, he just wanted to use coercion and temptation to get the ministers to support him to succeed to the throne, but unfortunately he ran into the head iron, and was directly impeached by the officials, which made Emperor Qionghua angry, and he was expelled from the ranks of the throne competition the next day.

However, he was not taught a lesson.

Naturally, the habits did not improve.

"I can tell you, but no one else can be present, and the fewer people the better.

This matter is significant, if you do not agree.

Then I would rather die than tell you.

Don't think about finding it yourself, Your Majesty's body has been hidden by me, and there is a mechanism in the place where it is hidden, once the password is wrong more than three times, then the mechanism will self-destruct, and the body inside the mechanism will naturally be destroyed along with it. ”

Although Taishi He didn't want to say it at this time, he knew very well that he had no possibility of turning over, and if he didn't want the whole clan to be wiped out, he could only pour out the real situation and fight for a chance to survive.

"How much preparation did you make?

Even the possibility of failure was thought of.

Zongzheng, the Empress Dowager, you see? ”

Although Prince Ling is a prince, but now this side is not the highest status of the prince, Zong Zheng and the Empress Dowager have a lot of rights in the selection of new emperors in the future, and the seniority is also the highest in terms of seniority, so it is natural for them to decide.

"Agree, otherwise what can I do, now it is urgent to get His Majesty's body back.

Otherwise, you can't be buried in an empty coffin. ”

Qiao Mu nodded, no opinion.

Zong Zheng hesitated and asked:

"Empress Taihuang, you have been in the palace for a long time, I don't know if you know where the secret room is."

Obviously, Zong Zheng didn't really want to negotiate terms with Taishi He, a thief, he still planned to ask Qiao Mu first, and he really couldn't talk about it later.

Qiao Mu didn't nod or shake his head:

"It's hard to say about the mourning family.

There are many secret rooms in the palace, and the mourning family only knows about the secret rooms built by Emperor Taizu when he built the palace, and the mourning family in other secret rooms does not know.

Some of the secret rooms were secretly built by the harem concubines, and some may have been built by successive emperors in order to hide some things.

So, I'm afraid there is nothing that can be done.

Let's hear what he has to say first.

How about Master He, the mourning family and Zongzheng, and the five princes going with you, the number of people can't be less, and we don't worry about it anymore. ”

Zong Zheng saw that Qiao Mu might indeed not know where the secret room was, so he could only nod helplessly in agreement.

"Yes, I'll take you there.

However, the two soldiers behind me cannot go in with them, I can only lead you in, and the others will definitely not be able to witness the holy face. ”

He Taishi continued to elaborate.

"Yes, just as you say."

The five princes present were not delicate and frail people, although they did not dare to say that they had any unstoppable courage, but there was absolutely no problem in dealing with civil officials in their sixties.

So his request naturally doesn't matter.

He can't go up to the sky anyway.

After the preliminary agreement was reached, Qiao Mu and the others immediately went to the Qinghua Hall in the harem under the guidance of Master He, and when they arrived at the door of the Qinghua Palace, when they heard Master He clearly point out that the emperor's body was here, everyone was a little dazed, and they didn't understand what the meaning was.

This Qinghua Hall is neither a place for the emperor to work or rest, nor is it a relatively famous place, it is completely a remote small courtyard on the edge of the imperial garden dedicated to rest.

Put the emperor's body here.

Could it be for convenience?

However, at this time, although they were puzzled, but no one asked, everyone still followed Taishi He into the Qinghua Palace, and successfully found the secret room in the hall, originally Qiao Mu They were still a little worried that Taishi He would take this opportunity to do anything, or do some conspiracy, but they never thought that Taishi He was obedient and quiet this time, until the secret room was opened, there was no extra hands and feet.

"Let's go inside.

Just let Master He take the lead. ”

Maybe it was because the road was too smooth, so those princes were a little stunned, and they were also a little worried about whether there would be any hidden weapons in the secret room, but they couldn't just stand at the door of the secret room and not move, so Qiao Mu could only put forward the suggestion of letting He Taishi take the lead.

So that they can go in with peace of mind.

Naturally, everyone had no objection to this, Master He's arm couldn't twist his thigh, and he also knew that there was no danger inside, so he also didn't refuse, and was the first to walk into the secret room very happily, leading the way in front.

Sure enough, the journey was extremely smooth.

They soon arrived at the core of the secret room, and after He Taishi lit a giant butter candle, they finally saw the emperor's corpse.

It was a dragon body with some blurred flesh and blood, and at the same time, the body was already a little distorted, and it was not very complete, at first glance, I didn't know how much torture and pain he had suffered in his life.

In short, it looks miserable.

It doesn't look like a natural death.
