Within a month, Tianqi had vomited blood several times, if it weren't for Wei Zhongxian's rat trap, if it weren't for the queen's gentleness, if it weren't for the several imperial doctors in the Tai Hospital, they would always be by Tianqi's side, if it weren't for the beggar who entered the palace for the second time to send the news, especially the most recent one gave him great confidence, I'm afraid he would have died long ago.

Wei Zhongxian didn't do whatever he wanted because he held him hostage, but instead put him in an unprecedented predicament, often sitting in the center of the Heart Cultivation Palace, with his hair scattered, muttering to himself, how could he still have the appearance of being the first eunuch of the dynasty in the past?

"A few outlaws on the rivers and lakes dare to call themselves secret guards? Joke! Tianqi was angry when he saw him, "A good celebrant is not a good eunuch, so you have to learn Zhao Gao?" Zhao Gao is so easy to be? Do you really think Lao Tzu doesn't know Zhao Gao? The queen is about to turn over the "Biography of Zhao Gao"! ”

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he was so angry that he coughed and coughed up blood.

"Your Majesty, you must take care of your health!" There are only three people in the hall who belong to the apocalypse.

In just over a month, Liu Song and Xue Fang, who have been raised all their lives, seem to be ten years old, and even the corners of Empress Zhang's eyes are stacked with crow's feet unconsciously, making her look even more charming.

"It's all your eunuch's fault!" Tianqi always stared at Wei Zhongxian, perhaps only Chongzhen understood his intentions - Wei Zhongxian was a knot in his heart that was difficult to untie in this life.

is like Queen Zhang, a woman he can't forget in this life.

Wei Zhongxian's secret guard is very fierce, and he is a well-deserved outlaw in the rivers and lakes, and even the emperor does not take it seriously.

Apocalypse always felt that they were so greedy when they looked at the queen.

This made Apocalypse extremely angry, and at that moment he finally began to regret that he had invested too much energy in carpentry in the previous years, thus ignoring the feelings of this woman who had followed him with all his heart, and neglecting to take care of her.

Tianqi really wants to stand up like Chongzhen and protect his own woman like Liaodong Guanning, at least like the fifth brother Xinwang, so that the flawless beauty of the phoenix in the jade, and the girl who fills the house will not be harmed.

But he couldn't, his heart ached, his hands were shaking, his legs were limp.

Most of the time he had a dry mouth, panicked, and he couldn't calm down.

Liu Song and Xue Fang tried their best, and Empress Zhang supported him strongly behind him and took care of him by the side, but she could only slightly alleviate his illness, and never touched the crux of the problem.

"Luckily, my brother is coming back! Eunuch, your end is coming! The originally extremely warm Heart Nourishing Hall was filled with an incomparably depressed and sad atmosphere at this time, but Tianqi was laughing arrogantly in his heart.

Gao Qiqian became Wei Zhongxian's only microphone to the outside world during this time, which was tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow, which made Wei Zhongxian, who was full of human indifference, feel the warmth of the world, and also made him lose his ability to think because of his scheming.

To be precise, he grasped the last straw and pinned all his hopes on "Xiao Gao".

Gao Qiqian swore that this was the most idle time he had ever lived since he entered the palace, and it was also the most beautiful time, and he only needed to go to the Heart Cultivation Hall every day to ask Wei Zhongxian for peace, so that he could feel the comfort of ten thousand people.

By the way, he looked at Tianqi's illness with slanted eyes, and after leaving the palace, he went to Ningshou Palace to formally greet Empress Dowager Liu, and by the way, reported the situation in the Palace of Heart Cultivation.

Empress Dowager Liu has been in the palace for so many years, and she never thought that such a thing would happen to the Ming Dynasty - the emperor and the empress were held hostage in a small palace by a eunuch.

There are so many masters in the palace, so many sharp weapons, all of them.

Those who are outside cannot get in, and those who are inside cannot get out. The only thing that is fortunate is that Wei Zhongxian is not Zhao Gao after all, no matter his ambition or ability, he is a little worse than Zhao Gao, and he can't do anything to kill the king.

It is not easy to say about the outlaws hired by Wei Zhongxian with a high salary, which is also what the Empress Dowager Liu is most worried about, so she found the most reliable Li Biao to come to the sect and let them think of a way.

Li Biao came to Zongdao to teach these two old foxes, and after testing that Gao Qiqian, the little fox, was indeed a shadow, he recommended him to Sun Yuanhua.

Sun Yuanhua warmly invited Gao Qiqian to come to the firearms test site built on the ghost sorrow, and in the newly built shooting range for testing the performance of firearms, Gao Qiqian saw the latest masterpiece of Sun Yuanhua's team - a pistol.

"Pistols? Isn't this a firebolt? It's still the short kind! Gao Qiqian expressed serious doubts about Sun Yuanhua's gushing introduction, thinking that he just wanted to fool himself into asking the emperor to cheat the research and development of the money.

Whether it is the current emperor or the future emperor.

Sun Yuanhua patiently explained: "According to the theory of the stinky locust, the firecracker will eventually transform into a musket, and my subordinate Bi Maokang and his team have invested a lot of energy, time, and funds, and finally accumulated quality, so that the traditional firecracker, which has a lot of bad points, has undergone a qualitative transformation. If you don't believe it, you'll find out by trying. ”

The three words "Master Gao" finally persuaded Gao Qiqian, he grabbed the small pistol on the table, learned the posture of the so-called coach on the side, and fired the first shot at the target fifty meters away.

It's a pity that it's off target.

A bullet propelled by leaf springs and rifling but without a primer does not know where it flies.

Sun Yuanhua still did not hesitate to praise: "Wow, Master Gao is really a sharpshooter, and he only missed the target for the first time, which is a feat that our coaches have not been able to achieve." Mr. Gao, how about Sun Moudou to hire you as our ace coach? Monthly salary...... One hundred taels of silver, what do you think? ”

"Is it really just a little bit of it?" Gao Qiqian was actually a little embarrassed, because at the moment of shooting, he almost failed to hold the miniature gun, "This may have something to do with the fact that I didn't handle it at a young age." ”

Gao Qiqian sighed silently, and what finally defeated him was a promise of one hundred taels of silver a month.

In his heart, he finally completed a complete cut with the great eunuch who had cultivated him as a confidant: "Quan Gelding, Lao Tzu can't play with you anymore, because you're almost done." ”

Gao Qiqian is still relatively determined, perhaps people with physical disabilities are always very strong-willed. So during this time, Gao Qiqian finally got enough of his pistol addiction, his marksmanship became more and more accurate, and the speed of pulling out the gun became faster and faster.

"Talent aside, sharpshooters are fed with silver." Gao Qiqian made Sun Yuanhua's sentence a wise saying. In the past few days when Chongzhen was about to arrive in Jingshi, he almost no longer left the door of the Heart Cultivation Palace.
