Chapter 253: The Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell
After settling in Haohao, Wei Ruhua returned to the Wei Mansion first and found Wei Rong, "Brother, what do you say about Bai Feng?" Shall we send some more men out to find him? ”
At this time, Wei Rong took out a letter and said to Wei Ruhua: "Haha, you don't have to worry about Bai Feng's affairs, it's just such a coincidence, we just came back, and I received a message from Bai Feng, he is safe now." ”
"Brother, you won't be lying to me, I used the news of Bai Feng's disappearance to trick me back, and now I say that Bai Feng is fine, I really don't know which of your words is true and which one is false." Wei Ruhua looked skeptical.
Wei Rong hurriedly raised his hand and swore to her: "Sister, I promise that what I said before and what I said now did not lie to you, it was really such a coincidence." When Bai Feng took the time to come, I asked him to tell you in person. ”
"Okay, since that's the case, I'll go to the other courtyard to accompany Yun'er and Haohao in the next time, I'm not at home, and I don't feel at ease when their two children are there, especially Haohao, who must need someone to accompany him when he was separated from his sister just now." After Wei Ruhua finished speaking, he went into the room to pack some clothes and prepare to live in another courtyard.
And Ding Yi led a group of men and horses to speed up the way, took a shortcut and rushed to Xifeng Mountain in advance, and ambushed here. It didn't take long for Emperor Changming's honor guard carriage to come from afar.
"Kill-" As soon as Emperor Changming appeared, Ding Yi rushed forward with people, and Emperor Changming saw that a group of black-clothed people suddenly appeared on the road holding swords, and they were about to take his life by rushing straight at the move, but their faces did not change and sat firmly on the chariot.
Emperor Changming is a very insecure person, he always suspects that someone is going to kill him, so there is a master escort by his side at any time, and this time too, he has already ordered a team to secretly ambush him, and once there is an accident, there will be an escort.
After Ding Yi's men fought hard to kill several guards, several people also hung up the lottery, but Emperor Changming actually had reinforcements here, so Ding Yi didn't take any advantage, seeing that he couldn't get it, Ding Yi remembered his master's instructions, once he missed a blow, he would retreat quickly, and he didn't dare to delay the master's affairs. So he shouted "Retreat-", and the group of men in black quickly retreated after him.
"Forget it, don't chase it, be careful of the enemy's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, and keep moving." Emperor Changming ordered that this matter, after he returned to the palace, he must investigate it carefully, once he knew who was behind the scenes, he would definitely crush him to ashes.
Their procession continued on their way, and soon they reached the West Peak Mountain, "See Your Majesty." The palace maid next to the Empress Dowager came over to greet the emperor, "How is the Empress Dowager now?" "Back to Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager worships the Buddha all day long, with a peaceful mind, and has never been impatient because she is trapped here." The big palace maid replied.
"That's good, I'll personally take the Empress Dowager back to the palace now, you go and prepare." "Yes, Your Majesty." Emperor Changming's order, the palace maids and eunuchs quickly helped the empress dowager to the hundred birds and phoenix golden phoenix specially prepared for her, Emperor Changming's nine-dragon golden chariot in front of the first, and the palace people followed behind with treasure vases and clothes and luggage. 000 Literature
On the way back to the palace, Emperor Changming was closing his eyes to recuperate, but suddenly heard a shrill cry, like the wailing of insects, his face changed, he took out the porcelain bottle he was carrying, opened it and looked, sure enough, the Gu worms inside were dead.
This Gu worm is the female Gu corresponding to the Gu worm in Bai Feng's body, only when the host and the child Gu die, the mother Gu will die together, so Bai Fengfeng has an accident in the palace? Although Emperor Changming was a little anxious, he still rushed back at the original speed, firstly, at this time, the matter had already come out, and there was no point in rushing back, and secondly, there was still his henchman Yang Gonggong in the palace.
So what happened to Bai Feng? It turned out that after Ding Yi retreated with his people, he sent a message to Bai Feng as soon as possible, although Bai Feng was very sorry after receiving the signal, he was unable to stop Emperor Changming outside the palace, but fortunately, he had another plan.
Bai Feng first contacted Wei Rong and asked him to send the people he had prepared before into the palace, and then found Feng Shencai: "Shencai, I have to fake my death to leave the palace now, I have already contacted Wei Rong, he will send death row prisoners who are similar to my body size into the palace, I need you to help me." ”
Although Feng Shencai didn't know why Bai Feng was suddenly in such a hurry, this plan for the golden cicada to get out of its shell had been said for a long time, and it would be the same any day, so he nodded and said: "Okay, I'll arrange for someone to bring the death row prisoner in, and the rest will be left to us, you just go to your bedroom and put a fire, and then I will arrange for you to meet Wei Rong outside the palace." ”
Feng Shencai arranged for Shang Zhi to go to the palace gate to bring the death row prisoner secretly, and at the same time, Bai Feng returned to his residence, he first deliberately instructed the little palace maid and the little eunuch to bring him tea and water, and then suddenly yelled in the room, cried and made a fuss, and smashed things.
The group of palace maids and eunuchs were very scared, listening to Bai Feng in the room as if he was crazy, they were far away, afraid of being injured by mistake, Bai Feng's purpose was to let everyone testify to him and prove that he accidentally knocked over the candlestick because of his emotional instability.
Seeing that the play was not bad, Bai Feng deliberately knocked over the candlestick and burned the bed curtain in the room, plus there was still wine that Bai Feng deliberately poured on the ground, and the fire spread at once, "Let me die, let me die!" It is better to die than to live and suffer! Bai Feng wailed in the room.
"The palace is flooded, come on!" As soon as these palace maids and eunuchs saw that the palace was on fire, they immediately became in a hurry, not to mention that Bai Feng, who lived here, seemed to be a distinguished guest of the saint, and they hurried to find water to put out the fire.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shang Zhi sent the death row prisoner he got from Wei Rong into the room, and after knocking him unconscious, he put on Bai Feng's clothes, and after Bai Feng changed into the clothes of the little eunuch, he escaped from the palace with the assistance of Shang Zhi and connected with Wei Rong who was waiting outside.
At the same time as the fire, Feng Shencai pinched to death the Gu worm that had escaped from Bai Feng's body before, creating the illusion of Bai Feng's death.
When Emperor Changming came back, he was just in time for Gonggong Yang to report to him, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not good, something happened to Bai Feng!" This Bai Feng suddenly went crazy and cried in the room today, and smashed a lot of things, and then suddenly took all the people away, and then his room caught fire, listening to the palace people, he was still shouting to die, it seems that he is self-immolation! ”
