Chapter 505: Dead End

Lu Cong took a few golden pills and died suddenly, and after the imperial doctor confirmed it, he trembled and announced his death, causing chaos.

No one could have expected this situation to occur, the original plan was broken in an instant, and everyone felt that the catastrophe was coming.

They rescued Lu Cong, causing him to die violently after taking Jindan, which is a felony that is full of beheadings.

The civil and military officials at the scene immediately controlled the imperial doctor to prevent him from reporting the matter to the palace after he left, and at the same time collectively challenged Qiu Yan, accusing him of making this immature plan, which led to the loss of his life after rescuing the emperor.

Even many people drew their swords on the spot, wanting to kill Qiu Yan and blame him for his head.

Qiu Yan panicked, he didn't expect such an emergency, and in the face of the civil and military officials who had almost lost their minds, he hurriedly persuaded: "Even if you kill me, you can't get away with it! What's more, it is not what I want to do so far, it must be that the gold pill taken by Hu Fan is poisonous, which will kill Your Majesty!"

"That's right! Those golden pills are just tonics, and the imperial doctor has also said that they are not poisonous, and at most they will make His Majesty hallucinate. "Some officials shifted their targets and turned their anger to Hu Fan.

Hu Fan was suddenly surrounded, and found that the civil and military officials at the scene were all pointing the finger at him, and even Qiu Yan looked at him with the same gaze, and immediately panicked: "It's none of my business! Jin Dan was also found ......by someone else's instructions."

Seeing that someone grabbed Hu Fan and was about to cut him down on the spot, Qiu Yan hurriedly said, "Wait! You might as well listen to what the imperial doctor has to say first." We're all in the same boat, and we have to work together to get through it!"

Although he also blames Hu Fan, he is a cronie after all, especially in this situation, he has to rely on Hu Fan to save his life.

Hu Xuan looked at Qiu Yan gratefully and nodded again and again.

Officials, you look at me, I look at you, and finally reached a consensus, turned to the imperial doctor and asked him to make it clear how Lu Cong died.

In the end, Jindan is poisonous, is it overdone, or other reasons.

The imperial doctor was under a lot of pressure, but in fact, he found that Lu Cong had died violently, and he had been trying to escape from here. But there was no way, there was no chance of escape.

If such a big thing happens, the officials present and Qiu Yan, who escaped from prison, are afraid that they will not be able to protect themselves, and in this situation, they will be angry and do anything.

In order to save his life, he had to carefully test the golden pill, and then tell the truth: "The pill taken by Your Majesty is exactly the same as before, and it is not adulterated!"

"Since it is non-toxic, could it be that Your Majesty will die after making up for it?" a military general asked anxiously.

The imperial doctor glanced at the sharp sword in his hand with concern, and quickly swallowed his saliva and explained: "Jindan is not poisonous, but Your Majesty has been out of medicine for this time, and it has some effects. I have become addicted before, resulting in poor appetite and irritable temperament during the withdrawal of drugs, and my sleep is also affected. Therefore, if you suddenly eat several golden pills, it is equivalent to taking fierce medicine in a weak state, and some of the reasons for deficiency are affected by Your Majesty. This reason alone will not lead to His Majesty's death, mainly after His Majesty stopped taking the medicine before, there were ingredients in the medicine prescribed to him that conflicted with the medicinal properties of this pill. If Your Majesty only eats one, the trace amount of medicine will not be like this, and it is precisely because of eating too much in an instant, when the body is not attacked by the tonic medicine, the excessive phase of the medicine is like a sharp blade, which causes Your Majesty to be unable to withstand the medicinal power......"

"That is to say, it is the people who did not stop His Majesty from taking too much Jindan to cause this situation?"

Hu Fan reacted, immediately pulled out the dagger hidden on his body, and before everyone could react, he directly stabbed the heart of the servant he mobilized to serve Lu Cong, and roared angrily: "The thief killed the talent, it was you who harmed Your Majesty!"

The servant never thought that Hu Xuan, who had hired him, would suddenly kill him, and without even saying a word, he fell in pain in a pool of blood.

"If this thief takes care of His Majesty, it will be more than that!" Hu Xuan killed the servant, successfully diverting the attention of the surrounding officials.

But this can't make Lu Cong resurrected, the scapegoat has been found, and the evil spirit in everyone's hearts has been successfully discharged, but what should I do next? I still can't get rid of the fact that the emperor died, and it has something to do with them!

At the critical moment, Qiu Yan spoke: "If Your Majesty is here, we can still rush into the palace and reverse the situation." Now that His Majesty has passed away, once the news spreads, everyone present will be guilty of stealing their families and destroying their ancestors! Moreover, this matter will not be concealed for long, and the palace will soon find out that His Majesty is not there, and we will lose the opportunity to assist Your Majesty to regain control of the palace. Instead of blaming each other, let's work together to find a way to survive! If this ship sinks, none of them will survive!"

"This is the best word!" the prime minister agreed with Qiu Yan's words, "I am afraid that the death of Your Majesty will not be concealed for a long time." Do you have a plan?"

At the scene, you look at me, I look at you, they shook their heads, everyone was panicked, where can they think calmly when they encounter this kind of thing?

"Otherwise, let's run!" said an official, "Before this matter is exposed, everyone will pack up the gold and silver, bring their families and private soldiers together, and escape from Miliang!"

"Escape, where do you want to flee?" said the prime minister coldly, "We are in the heart of Liangzhou, and once the incident happens, the whole country will have nowhere to hide!

Hearing this, many people shook their heads vigorously, even if the grass fell into the grass, once Lu Jian blamed them for Lu Cong's death...... No, Lu Jian and even the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty would definitely regard them as rebel ministers and thieves who plotted to kill the emperor, so that the subjects of the whole country would crusade together, and even if they hid in the deep mountains and old forests, they would be surrounded and suppressed.

Discussions come and go, and there is no good way to protect yourself. As the minutes passed, the crowd became increasingly agitated.

At this time, Qiu Yan spoke: "Listen to me!"

The officials on the scene turned one after another, and everyone was in a desperate situation, but they were unwilling to let go of any hope.

Qiu Yan successfully attracted attention, lay on the bed and tried not to pull the wound, raised his head and said: "Now that I am waiting for a dead end, I am afraid that there is only one way!"

"What's the solution, say it quickly!"

"Hurry up!"

......

Officials gathered.

Qiu Yan said seriously under the urging of so many eyes: "We can't bring Your Majesty back to life, and it is indeed a dead end now." But if you think about it, it's not impossible. If you think about it, why do we get together now? I believe I don't need to say it, everyone knows it!"

Hearing this, the faces of many officials changed slightly. Indeed, the reason why everyone gathered here is very simple, everyone on the scene has fallen into the hands of a secret organization for various reasons, and has been coerced to do things for them. Others are bribed by this secret organization to secretly earn some profits for their work.

In fact, even if no one has seen the real members of this organization, every time they contact through secret letters, exchange materials and intelligence through various hidden and safe third parties, and they can guess through the mysterious dragon claw seal that the secret organization is behind Huaguo.

The other party is Huaguo's detailed work department lurking in Liang State, and it has quite a powerful energy, penetrating into every state and county in Liang State, and it is extremely hidden.

I'm afraid that the so-called old immortals this time were also made by this secret organization, otherwise where did they get the "golden pill" for Hu Xuan to dig out?

It's just that it has always been this secret department that took the initiative to contact them, and then issued various orders to drop materials. No one knows where this organization is located, who it is, or who it usually pretends to be.

So after hearing Qiu Yan's suggestion, everyone shook their heads, feeling that there was no way.

Qiu Yan was not so pessimistic, and said to everyone: "Although the other party has always taken the initiative to contact, we know very little. However, judging from the fact that the other party secretly helped each other, and even gave away the golden pill, our every move was in the eyes of the other party, and we never broke away! I even suspect that there are members of the organization on the scene, or that they can directly contact the organization, and exist further than others! Although the possibility is not high, if there is such a person, can he stand up? At present, I am desperate, and if we continue to wait like this, it is very likely that the context of your organization's development will be wiped out! Over the years, your organization has spent countless efforts to develop these people present. I hope that we can unite and help each other, as long as we can help us through this difficulty, everyone will sincerely serve you in the future......"

The officials on the scene carefully observed the people around them, Qiu Yan's words were very reasonable, this secret organization could obtain the situation here in real time, and there was a possibility that everyone had direct contact with them.

At the moment of searching, they are all asking such people to stand up quickly and show everyone the way.

It's just that for a while, no one at the scene came forward to respond.

Just when everyone thought that the guess was wrong and the road was cut off, the sound of crossbow arrows was suddenly heard, and then something broke through the window, shooting right through the crowd and hitting the edge of the bed.

Everyone was already nervous, and they were so frightened that they raised their weapons to guard everywhere, and their faces turned white.

"Look, everyone!" Qiu Yan lay on the bed, so he could clearly see the crossbow arrow that hit the edge of the bed, with a note tied to it.

Let Hu Pan take down the note and look at it carefully, there is an address written on it - the dense forest in the south of the city.

There was a dragon claw seal under the note, and everyone opened the window and even ran outside to look around, completely unclear where the crossbow arrow came from, and how the other party knew the content of the conversation in the house and responded.

However, one thing is certain, the other party is a mysterious organization behind the scenes, and he doesn't want to see all these years of hard work come to naught, so he gave the address, probably to support him in person.

Seeing hope in their despair, they immediately rushed to the forest south of the city.

The prime minister reminded: "It is very important to go to the dense forest south of the city, but it is also very important to prevent the leakage of information about Your Majesty's death and to protect the families of all the people present! It is better to divide the troops into two routes, one team rushes to the dense forest in the south of the city, and simply transport His Majesty's body out secretly, and the imperial doctor must also be together, and must not leak the slightest news; the other team quickly notifies the companions in the imperial city to withdraw, and at the same time transfers all the family members outside the city! In this way, my status is the highest and the authority is the greatest, so I will be in charge of the family members in the city. Private soldiers transfer affairs, and you should assign your cronies to cooperate, so as not to waste time. ”
