Chapter 1357: Fighting wits and courage
"So what, you are not the same, you know that Ruan Di already has Qi Xiaoxian and tricked her into the palace to be your concubine, let's two and a half catties and eight taels." Liao Changkong's face approached the old emperor, and now he only had boundless hatred for the person in front of him.
The old emperor's face twitched a few times, he didn't expect Liao Changkong to block him with this matter, and immediately lowered his head a little dejectedly, in the end he did something wrong, and sure enough, the cycle of cause and effect has retribution.
"Well, I can't mean you, not to mention that now the entire palace is yours, are you satisfied." The old emperor aged a lot in an instant, and even his voice was filled with deep exhaustion.
He now knows that being an emperor is not as good as he imagined, it means that he has to bear all the loneliness, and he can't stay with the person he loves the most, but it's a pity that Liao Changkong doesn't understand.
"That's not what I want, it's your tourmaline." Liao Changkong was already very impatient, this old emperor asked knowingly, knowing what he wanted, but he kept talking about irrelevant things.
The old emperor closed his eyes again, the so-called out of sight and out of mind, he didn't want to see Liao Changkong's crazy appearance, and he didn't even want to admit that he had such a son.
Liao Changkong asked several times in a row to no avail, and the matter was so deadlocked here, and in the end it could only end with him leaving angrily.
The old emperor didn't want anyone to know where the tourmaline was placed, and it was impossible for him to know, but if he didn't have this tourmaline, even if he killed the old emperor, he wouldn't be able to do it.
After all, there is still a national teacher sitting here, and the emperors of the Fenghui Dynasty in the past dynasties must hold tourmaline, if not, then the national teacher has the right to directly deprive that person of all the rights in his hands.
"Damn, mother, where did you say that old immortal hid the tourmaline, my people have already searched all the places where he can hide things, and there is nothing at all."
Liao Changkong returned to Concubine Zhen's room, now he can only rely on Concubine Zhen for his life, the old emperor almost sent Concubine Zhen into the cold palace, thanks to his early deployment, he did not let his plan succeed.
Concubine Zhen pondered for a long time, the emperor had never mentioned such a thing as tourmaline to her, after all, she was just a concubine, and she did not hold power like the queen and queen, and it was impossible for her to come into contact with these things.
"Since there is no one in the palace, will the tourmaline have been hidden outside the palace by him, Ruan Di has won his trust, maybe it is hidden in the courtyard rented by Ruan Di."
Concubine Zhen's words made Liao Changkong suddenly enlightened, this is really uncertain, the old emperor loves Ruan Di so much, such an important thing may really be placed there for her, no wonder Ruan Di and Qi Xiaoxian were not half panicked when they were caught.
"I'll send someone over to search Ruan Di's courtyard now, dig three feet into the ground, and I'll find out this tourmaline." A hint of viciousness flashed in Liao Changkong's eyes, he really didn't believe it, he couldn't find this tourmaline.
Concubine Zhen nodded, she didn't think there was anything wrong with what her son was doing, the old emperor was so mediocre that he could only listen to what Bai Xue and Ruan Di said, and everyone else didn't listen to them, so don't blame them for being polite.
Here Qi Xiaoxian turned out of the window, now is the time for the guards to change shifts, and it is also the best moment that is the least likely to attract attention, he directly turned over and hid in a wood.
To his surprise, the place where Liao Changkong poured them into was the side hall of the Fengxi Palace where the queen lived, and there was a slight noise in the main hall, and it was self-evident who was locked up.
Qi Xiaoxian didn't expect Liao Changkong to lock them all together so reassuringly, he didn't expect Qi Xiaoxian to escape, as the saying goes, it really doesn't take much effort to get there.
There are a lot of guards guarding the main hall, but according to Qi Xiaoxian's observation, there should be no guards inside, in order to allow the old emperor to be able to do things comfortably.
Every entrance and exit of this hall is heavily guarded, and it is definitely not easy to enter without alarming anyone.
"Your team come with me, the prince has something to tell you to do." Just when Qi Xiaoxian was in a dilemma, a team leader walked out and called away a small team that was on the sidelines.
Maybe none of them thought that Qi Xiaoxian would be able to run out of the house at this time, so the defense was not so deep, Qi Xiaoxian quickly entered the main hall through the side door.
The old emperor thought it was Liao Changkong's person and didn't open his eyes, but he was patted on the shoulder by the queen Wang, and when he looked at it, it turned out to be Qi Xiaoxian, and the old emperor's eyes widened for a moment.
Didn't Liao Changkong say that he had already caught Qi Xiaoxian and Ruan Di together, how could he still come in.
The old emperor had a lot of questions, but he also knew that now was not a good time to ask questions, and there were guards guarding the door, and he could hear what the people in the room were saying at any time.
Qi Xiaoxian took the paper and pen from the table where the official document was being corrected, and motioned for the emperor to write down everything he wanted to say.
The two communicated like this for a while, and Qi Xiaoxian learned that the place where the tourmaline was located was under Liao Changkong's palace, and the so-called most dangerous place was the safest place, and Liao Changkong couldn't think of the location of the tourmaline anyway.
The old emperor's meaning was to let Qi Xiaoxian escape first and take the tourmaline in Liao Changkong's palace, the strength of the national teacher was enough to exterminate these bandits, but the national teacher himself only recognized the tourmaline returned by the phoenix, that is to say, the one who got the tourmaline got the phoenix back.
The secret of this is known only to the emperors of each generation, and it was not until his generation that he had time to tell his princes that Liao Changkong rebelled first.
Qi Xiaoxian knows everything, it is not difficult for him to get out of the palace alone, the strategy that the old emperor said is still useful, after all, the retreat of the national teacher is also in the imperial city, but if you go to Yangcheng to invite Liao Qiufeng, I am afraid that the time will be spent more.
According to the original route, Qi Xiaoxian went back, he knew the time of each change of duty, now is the time to take care of him, he can't take this risk to go out, once he is caught, they will have no help.
The old emperor could only pray secretly, hoping that Qi Xiaoxian could complete what he said, so that they would all be saved, if they were unfortunately caught by Liao Changkong again, then they could really only resign themselves to fate.
"Why did you come back so quickly, did you get any news?" As soon as Ruan Di saw Qi Xiaoxian get up from the stool excitedly, she had been terrified since he went out.
