"You, now send someone to bring the emperor back." The Queen Mother's anger calmed down slightly, relieved her breath, and assigned Concubine Ru to do things again.

"Why do you want to bring the emperor back?" Concubine Ru asked in a puzzled whisper.

"Now the situation in the court is on the side of the prince. If the crown prince silently solves the emperor at this time, then the prince can directly ascend the throne as the son of heaven. When the time comes, we will not be able to return to heaven, and where will we still have the place to speak in this world. Take the emperor back, as long as the emperor's life is still in our hands, if the emperor does not return to heaven for a day, the prince can only be the prince, and he will not be able to cover the sky with one hand. "The Queen Mother is rare to be patient and analyze.

"Rufei, you have to remember that you are on our side. When Ayuan ascended the throne and became the emperor, you are the most respected imperial concubine. The prince has now torn his face with us, if the prince is allowed to take it in this world, the mourning family will not have good fruit to eat, and you will not have a good end. The Queen Mother was worried that Concubine Ru would see the wind and rudder, so she warned loudly.

"Concubines know what to do." Rufei's face is tense and her eyes are tough.

The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction and waved her hand: "Go down." ”

"Yes." After the concubine responded crisply, she retired.

Rufei's people arrived outside the emperor's palace, but they didn't receive the emperor, and they were stopped without even taking half a step at the palace door: "Rufei Niangniang, please go back." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that no one can see the emperor until the emperor recovers. ”

"Father-in-law Ye, this concubine came to pick up the emperor and go back to Fushou Palace at the behest of the Queen Mother. I hope you can help me talk to the prince and let the prince be accommodating. "Concubine Ru lowered her body and prayed to Gonggong Ye.

"I'm sorry, but the minions are also in the service of the prince. The prince has already given a death order for this matter. I hope that Concubine Ru can be considerate and don't embarrass the slaves. It's hard for a minion to do. Ye Gonggong said with an embarrassed face.

“······” Concubine Ru saw that Gonggong Ye couldn't be accommodating, so she had to go back and inform the Queen Mother of the matter.

"Smack!" The Queen Mother was furious when she heard this, and the Queen Mother grabbed her sleeves fiercely, her chest constantly rising and falling, "A dog slave, even dare to disobey the orders of the mourning family!" ”

"Queen Mother, please stop your anger!" Seeing the Queen Mother's hideous face, Concubine Ru immediately knelt down in a panic and begged for mercy.

"Humph! If the prince doesn't let you see the emperor, the mourning family will go in person! The Queen Mother got up from the seat, stepped on the back of Concubine Ru's hand, crushed it hard, let go, lowered her head to Concubine Ru's eyes and said, "Your ability doesn't seem to be very good!" If you disappoint the mourning family next time, you don't have to ask for this cheap life! ”

After speaking, the Queen Mother left Fukang Palace angrily with Mama Hui.

Rufei lowered her head to look at the back of her red and swollen hand, and the familiar pain made the corners of her mouth rise slightly. However, her eyes were full of ruthlessness.

The Queen Mother and her people broke into the emperor's palace and took the emperor away.

Seeing that the queen mother looked worried that the emperor would be killed by her own black hands, the prince mockingly hooked the corners of his mouth.

······

"It seems that these people were all killed by the medicine people of the Poison Yama Valley." A delicate little white face dressed in a blue handsome outfit raised his white face and said to Xu Shizi. This handsome little white face is Shen Yafei's woman dressed as a man.

Xu Shizi helped Shen Yafei up, turned his head and asked Cheng Fang: "Is there any news on the outskirts of the city?" ”

"Our people haven't found the news yet, and King Ning has already personally led people to find it." Cheng Fang responded in a deep voice.

"yes, I see." The prince fell into deep thought.

"You've got a solution?" Seeing Xu Shizi suddenly raise up, Shen Yafei asked.

"If the medicine man of the Poison Yan Valley did it, we have to take precautions in advance." Xu Shizi said.

"How to prevent it. Could it be that he directly told them that there were poisonous medicine people from Yan Gu in the capital, and these medicine people wanted to kill them? Shen Yafei said jokingly.

"Didn't you let Zhiyan make the medicinal herbs? We divided the herbs and let the people eat one pair each. This would at least slow down the invasion of Poison Yama Valley's medicinal properties into their bodies. After Xu Shizi finished speaking, he was a little worried, "But, what method are we going to use to make everyone eat?" The dignitaries in the capital will not easily believe our words, and those ordinary people may be reluctant to eat the medicinal herbs after they get them."

"Why don't we give alms. In the name of the imperial court, it is said to prevent evil diseases. You can come to the shed to drink, or you can take the herbs back and fry them yourself. Shen Yafei thought of this solution.

"No, we don't have that much manpower and material resources to do this right now. We still have to do our best to find the medicine people in the Poison Yama Valley, and we also have to prevent these medicine people from doing things behind their backs. Moreover, if we are giving, there will be a lot of people in the capital, and it will be even more difficult to manage. Xu Shizi felt that this method was not feasible.

"So what are we going to do?" Shen Yafei also felt distressed.

"Let's think of something else." Xu Shizi said, "After the situation at the palace banquet yesterday, I am afraid that what we expected will come in advance. We must send more people to inspect all parts of the capital. ”

"So what is General He doing?" In front of the two, General He stood guard at the gate of the city like a piece of wood, looking out of the city. Shen Yafei knew that it was impossible for General He to come to guard the city gate.

He said that although King Ning was released, King Ning's charges had not yet been clarified. He was ordered by the emperor to monitor King Ning, and now that the emperor has not ordered him to evacuate, he will continue to monitor King Ning. But King Ning didn't allow him to follow, so he decided to wait for King Ning to come back at the city gate. Xu Shizi said with a light smile.

"He's not like a brainless man." Shen Yafei thought of the messy backyard of General He's Mansion, where did General He look like an honest man.

"Some people admit truth in some things, but they behave differently in other things. This is called inconsistency. Xu Shizi smiled lightly and rubbed the hat of Shen Yafei's veil.

"I don't think that's how it is used." Shen Yafei glanced at him.

"Ahem, almost." Xu Shizi said calmly with his chin held high.

"Be careful, don't be heard by General He." Shen Yafei reminded him.

"What are you afraid of······ Xu Shizi was about to say a few righteous and awe-inspiring words, when General He on the opposite side looked over, and Xu Shizi immediately stopped talking and twisted his head to the other side.

"Didn't you say you weren't afraid? Shen Yafei said with a smile.

"I just don't want to get in trouble. General He's brain is like an old antique, if he runs into him, he can read it to death. Xu Shizi recalled the situation when he met General He when he was a child, and immediately shivered in horror.

"Not really." Shen Yafei looked at General He in surprise and said.

"Anyway, it is better to have King Ning now." Cozy snickered gloatingly.

"Let's go. Let these officers and soldiers be brought back to the official palace. Shen Yafei glanced at him.

"Go." Xu Shizi smiled, turned his head to Cheng Fang and said.

"Yes."

······

"Are you sure?" The prince reported the situation at the gate of the city to the prince, and the prince couldn't help frowning.

"I don't know what their purpose is? At the beginning, he killed all the people in several villages, and then killed the officers and soldiers at the gate of our city. But they killed the officers and soldiers and did not rush in, what will they do next? Is it going to be the next step for us to deal with the people in our city? Xu Shizi supported his chin with his right hand, rubbing his chin with his fingertips in anguish.

"Didn't you say that the princess has medicinal herbs that can prevent this aspect? You ask her to fill some medicine for everyone to take. The prince said.

"Xiaoya's medicine can only slow down the time of their onset in the early stage, so that they can be treated later, if those people want to kill people directly, these drugs will not work." Xu Shizi said.

“······”

The study fell silent.

A knock on the door sounded at this time, and King Ning walked in from outside.

"How?" The crown prince looked at King Ning and asked.

"We found these things in the suburbs." King Ning put the box in his hand on the table and opened it, and the box contained some strange things found from the suburbs.

"These ······" The prince flipped through the contents with a fan, but the contents looked a little strange, "It doesn't look like something I'm looking for..." And... It's kind of like a part of the human body······"

When the prince flipped over something that resembled a human being, a wave of nausea welled up in his heart, and he threw his fan aside and retreated again and again.

"That's right, it's the parts of the human body. These things are the same things that were left behind by the dead when we were attacked by some strange people in the South. King Ning's face was solemn, he paused for a moment, and then continued, "So, I suspect that they are in a group. ”

"This ······" The prince's brow added a few more deep marks, and the center of his eyebrows wrinkled into three deep marks.

"At that time, the people in the south were like youkai and couldn't be killed, but our people were easily killed by them. If they were the same people who attacked the gates, I am afraid we would be in a ······ situation." When those people attacked the southern border, they had already caused a lot of panic, if they were in the capital... The consequences are unimaginable.

"A-Ning, you transfer all the people in your hands back." The crown prince raised his head, his eyes glazed, "From today onwards, we will not only send more people to investigate this matter, but also send more people to guard the capital." ”

"Yes." King Ning nodded in understanding.

"I'm afraid there is no way to hide this matter anymore, we don't have enough manpower at all, and we need more people to resist these people." The matter of the Poison Yan Valley Medicine Man has always been known to only a few of them, and they only have someone in the hands of King Ning, but the enemy is outnumbered and unstoppable. Xu Shizi felt that it was still necessary to make an overall deployment of this matter.
