Chapter Seventy-One: The Secret Beast

Although he was wearing the clothes of a subordinate, Leng Changxi's cold and handsome face and the tenacity and nobility exuded from his body had already demonstrated the temperament of his royal descendant.

"Worries my grandmother." Leng Changxi stepped forward, bowed his hand to the old lady, and then said to the Queen Mother, who had also been staring at him, "Let the Queen Mother bother." ”

A hint of emotion flashed in the Queen Mother's eyes, although Leng Changxi was nominally the son-in-law of Ning Wangfu, he was the biological son of his most beloved daughter, and he was his own grandson.

"Hmm." The Queen Mother nodded, she didn't make too many expressions, but her heart was already fluctuating and calm.

Leng Changxi turned around and glanced at Sima Han, Sima Han's eyes were no longer as muddy as outside the hall, shrewd, resolute, and showed a clear light.

"I already knew that you were the one who came to report the news." Sima Han nodded.

Leng Changxi checked the situation for Emperor Zhaoxuan next to the dragon couch, and frowned: "I was still late with the Eighteen Shadow Guards last night, and I happened to see the emperor in the Qiankun Palace in a rage, and ordered the Seven Princes to be sent into the Zongren Mansion, and the Lord of Zhaojing was also forcibly taken back to the mansion by Princess Jing, and then the emperor was so angry that he had angina, fainted to the ground, and found that there was something wrong, but when he wanted to withdraw, he found that the net had already been laid around, but fortunately, we had two preparations, although the Eighteen Shadow Guards were temporarily separated, but at least all escaped, Except for Leng Wu, who was the most seriously injured, the others were all slightly injured. ”

"Then why do you venture to enter the palace again?" The old lady of Ning Wangfu couldn't help but worry about Leng Changxi.

Leng Changxi finally looked at Emperor Zhaoxuan's eyelids and found that the whites of Emperor Zhaoxuan's eyes no longer showed any signs of life.

"Because I know that Nuan Nuan will definitely not be relieved that I will come to the palace to find me." After Leng Changxi finished speaking, the old lady sighed, Leng Changxi guessed correctly, Qin Yunuan did enter the palace, and now her whereabouts are unknown" You two" The old lady shook her head and said, "None of them are troublesome." ”

Leng Changxi finally checked Emperor Zhaoxuan's pulse and came to a conclusion: "The emperor's body is fine, but his sanity seems to have been controlled by some miracle medicine." ”

"What does General Leng mean?" Sima Han stepped forward and asked.

Leng Changxi narrowed his eyes, and said: "This is a kind of ** medicine in the Western Regions that controls people's minds, it uses the five poisons as the medicine, and uses a certain special command, such as action instruments or fragrances as traction, to control people's hearts, so even if the emperor is sober later, it is very likely that he will be controlled by others, and we can't believe the instructions he says." ”

"It's Sima Rui;

。 Sima Han immediately said: "When the time comes, let's take a good look at what strange things are on him." ”

"He doesn't care about doing it himself," Leng Changxi knew Sima Rui too well, "Have you forgotten that there is a loyal Imperial Doctor Zhao by his side?" I guess that the thing that is a special command must be on Imperial Doctor Zhao's body. ”

"But what I'm curious about is how Sima Rui managed to handle the heavy handle outside the palace, and his father's medicinal diet had to be tried by several eunuchs to give his father psychedelic drugs" Sima Han is very puzzled, is it possible, what is his ability to reach the sky? ”

Leng Changxi shook his head, although he didn't know the ins and outs, it was certain that Sima Rui was also a human being, and since he was a human being, there would be flaws.

At this time, a eunuch came in outside the door to report that Imperial Physician Zhao was coming in to change the emperor's medicine.

They all glanced at each other, Leng Changxi had already put the human skin mask back on, and what Imperial Doctor Zhao saw when he came in was exactly what Sima Rui expected, and the Queen Mother was heartbroken, and sat on the side of the dragon couch with a worried face.

"Imperial Doctor, Emperor He."

Imperial Physician Zhao bowed down and said: "Don't worry, the queen mother is just taking a nap, and when Wei Chen applies a needle, the emperor will naturally wake up." ”

Imperial Physician Zhao took out a bundle of medical silver needles from the medicine box as usual, and pierced it towards the emperor's Baihui acupoint in a stylish manner, and the cuffs swayed back and forth in front of Emperor Zhaoxuan's nose intentionally or unintentionally, and after a while, Emperor Zhaoxuan really woke up, but his expression was a little confused, like a big dream.

"Your Majesty, you're awake."

"I'm tired, you all go back." Emperor Zhaoxuan's eyes were dull, and the first sentence he said was to shout that these people would go home, if it was normal, everyone would definitely be unhappy, but with Leng Changxi's words, Sima Han and the others naturally understood that Emperor Zhaoxuan had been controlled by Imperial Doctor Zhao, but now the palace was replaced by Sima Rui's manpower.

Emperor Zhaoxuan repeated the words of asking everyone to go back, and the Queen Mother shook her head, looking helpless: "Come on, drive back to the palace." ”

Leng Changxi pretended to be a little servant Duofu and walked out of Qiankun Palace with the crowd.

"Wait, you stop." Sima Rui has been guarding the door of the hall, he felt that this little guy was very unusual earlier, even though Leng Changxi could hide his face and change his voice, but the temperament between his gestures was still so different.

"Are you a servant in King Fu's mansion?" Sima Rui raised his voice.

Leng Changxi lowered his head and was about to reply, but Du Sheng hurried from outside the hall and whispered to Sima Rui, Leng Changxi secretly used his internal strength, and barely heard the words "secret passage" and "escape", this time, Sima Rui didn't even seem to have the mind to continue interrogating Leng Changxi, and muttered in a low voice, "This damn woman." After that, he went straight back to Jingchen Palace.

In Jingchen Palace, Qin Yunxiang looked at the empty East Side Hall, and there was only one question in his heart - what about Qin Yunuan's little slut?

"What are you doing here?" Sima Rui behind him snorted coldly, so frightened that Qin Yunxiang directly threw a small plate of pastries in his hand to the ground.

"I ......." Qin Yunxiang was speechless, just stammered and explained, "I just thought that the third sister had been in the house for a long time, and I was afraid that she was hungry, so I came over and brought her some pastries." ”

"Pastries?" Sima Rui angrily trampled those beautifully made osmanthus flowers with his feet, "Do you want to take the opportunity to put something in this pastry?" There is also this door, it is clear that you let the palace people break open, Qin Yunxiang, don't think that I don't know what you have in mind, I will tell you clearly again in the end, if you dare to touch her, I can take your life at any time;

。 ”

Sima Rui said while pinching Qin Yun's neck and pushing her against the door of the rosewood carving, Qin Yun's delicate makeup had been mixed up, Sima Rui's desperation made her unable to breathe, and she couldn't believe that she would lose in the Taiwei Mansion, but she didn't expect that she had paid so much for the man in front of her, accompanied him to harm others, and helped him rebel, but after all, she couldn't resist a cheap woman.

"." Sima Rui kicked Qin Yunxiang to the side fiercely, and instructed Du Sheng to take Qin Yunxiang back to the dormitory, and ran towards the entrance of the secret passage on the wall.

There are not many people who know the entrance to this secret passage, and most of them are dead, the last time he used this secret passage to bring Qin Yunxiang to the lotus pond, so that Qin Yunxiang watched the good show of drowning Qin Linfeng, but at that time, Qin Yunxiang was brought around in a circle with his face, and he believed that with Qin Yunxiang's ability, he would never discover the mystery of this.

The switch of the secret passage is on a picture of a garden full of spring, Sima Rui found the switch on the painting, it is at the branch of a kapok plant, and when the heavy stone slab at the entrance of this secret passage is opened, Sima Rui took a deep breath, this secret passage took him a full ten years, from the beginning when he was brought to Jingchen Palace by Empress Chen to raise him, he had already secretly planned, and it was not completely completed until three years ago.

This secret passage extends in all directions, and it can lead to the emperor's Qiankun Palace, Empress Chen's palace and a path leading directly to the outside of the palace at any time, Qin Yunuan must have escaped along this secret passage, if he escaped, it would be fine, but if Qin Yunuan discovered the biggest secret here, Sima Rui quickened his pace while thinking.

The passage of the secret passage narrowed more and more, until a cool breeze hit the surface, and it was a huge artificially carved cavity, about three meters high, and it was quite spacious, except for the eerie smell of copper and the smell of rotting wounds, and from time to time there were some low and hoarse moans, like the roar of a trapped beast.

Sima Rui slowly moved his steps in, and there were four arm-thick iron chains inside, which were bundled around a creature with dirty hair that looked like a beast, and at the end of the chain, there was a ring-shaped lock, and in the center of the lock was a sharp iron thorn, which directly penetrated the beast's limbs and nailed him directly to the lock.

As the beast struggled, the blood flowed down the chains, and below the cage was a one-meter-deep pit, and the wet walls of the pit were crawling with full bloodsucking insects, and their nourishment came from the blood shed by the beast as it struggled.

Sima Rui covered his mouth and nose and glanced inside, and after confirming that everything was as usual inside, he was about to turn around and walk back, when a cool female voice suddenly sounded: "What a trick to steal beams and change pillars, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never believe that General Meng, who is now training soldiers in the suburbs of Beijing, is just an impostor, and the real one is actually here." ”

Sima Rui turned around suddenly, and found that Qin Yunuan had been following behind him, he squinted, he felt that he had been calculated, the woman in front of him was really a master, before he pushed open the secret passage door, Qin Yunuan might have guessed that there was a secret passage in this palace at most, but he didn't know where it was, let alone that such a terrifying cage would be hidden in this secret passage.

Qin Yunuan took advantage of Sima Rui's suspicious personality, she knew that the first thing Sima Rui would do if he wanted to come in would definitely be to go to the most important place to confirm that everything was no different, but unconsciously, she brought Qin Yunuan in instead, allowing her to see such a scene.

Sima Rui's eyes were suddenly full of murderous aura: "Even though you are the woman I love the most, do you think that if you come in, I will let you out so easily?" ”
