Chapter 217: Fakes
The capital, Yongshou Palace.
An inner court guard dressed in brocade clothes and wearing a fish and dragon bag knelt on one knee at the foot of the Kowloon steps.
In the dragon tent, the emperor raised the seal in his hand slightly and looked at the bottom.
"Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity......"
The seal that appeared in the emperor's hand at this moment was the target of all forces gathering in Anqing Mansion this time.
Heirloom jade seal!!
The emperor in the dragon tent looked at it for a long time, and then raised his head to look at the leader of the inner court guard kneeling below.
"Those rebellious ministers and thieves are still in Anqing Mansion?"
The leader of the inner court didn't raise his head, but said in a deep voice: "Back to Your Majesty, except for the people in the Dragon Guardian Villa, who were killed by Zhao Yu, the people of the other forces are all in Anqing Mansion at the moment. ”
This is a national jade seal!
Even if the emperor trusted Zhao Yu again, it was impossible for him to hand over this kind of imperial mission to someone who had only entered the center of power for a few months.
Everyone could see that the emperor wanted to train Zhao Yu to be a dagger in his hands to balance the forces of all parties.
Therefore, everyone took it for granted that Zhao Yu was the one who went to Anqing to find the heirloom jade seal.
And the emperor quietly sent a personal inner court guard when the eyes of all the forces were fixed on Zhao Yu.
"Not bad......"
The emperor nodded slightly, and then said to the inner court guard: "The identity of the shadow around Zhao Yu can't be known by a third person, do you know what to do?" ”
"The minister understands!"
The leader of the Inner Court Guard nodded, and then quietly withdrew from the Eternal Life Palace.
"In the past thousand years, I have been the first emperor to obtain this destiny thing......"
After the inner court guard withdrew, the emperor stared at the heirloom jade seal in his hand, and brushed the corner of the gold-inlaid with one hand.
"Come and see if this thing is real or fake!"
The emperor looked at the heirloom jade seal in his hand and whispered to the empty Yongshou Palace.
This thing has disappeared for nearly a thousand years, and its traces have only been recorded sporadically on some books, and no one has ever seen it.
But the emperor understood that only he in this world, or only these people around him, could distinguish the authenticity of this thing.
"Yes!"
Just as the emperor's words fell, a low response came from the empty Yongshou Palace.
Immediately, on both sides of the dragon tent, three people suddenly came out, these three people were dressed in plain clothes, and their expressions were indifferent.
Even in the face of the emperor, he only stood and clasped his fists to salute.
Facing the expressions of the three of them, the emperor was not angry, and directly handed the heirloom jade seal in his hand to the dragon tent.
Outside the dragon tent, one of them took the jade seal of the country and placed it on the ground between the three of them.
Immediately, the three of them sat on the ground, and their six palms were connected, surrounding the jade seal of the country in the center.
Bursts of terrifying aura emerged from the three of them, and under each other's interspersions, a dragon law was faintly drawn above the heads of the three people.
Such visions seem to have become commonplace in the dragon tent, and he is not surprised.
After a while, the three of them suddenly withdrew their palms and stood up, and the leader picked up the jade seal of the country in the middle of the three and handed it back to the emperor in the dragon tent.
"How?"
Naturally, they could quietly hide by the emperor's side, and the emperor was naturally convinced of their methods.
"Fake ......"
The strong man in the lead did not hesitate at all, and directly gave an answer with an expressionless face.
Then, without waiting for the emperor to say anything, the figures of the three disappeared into the Yongshou Palace again.
"Fake?"
The emperor glanced at the heirloom jade seal in his hand in disbelief, and then threw the fake out of the dragon tent.
The seal fell on the hard white jade floor of the Yongshou Palace, and it was split in an instant.
……
Canal, above the fortune boat.
Zhao Yu returned to Anqing Mansion and learned that King Ning had been taken away by the Qin Cha the day after he left, and he understood what had happened the whole thing.
The faint gentleman in the eyes of everyone is really a master of scheming.
Thinking about it on the other hand, only such a person can suppress the forces of the Nine Thousand Years Old, the East and West Factory, the Jinyi Guard, and the Dragon Guardian Villa.
And this trip to Anqing Mansion also made Zhao Yu aware that among these people in the headquarters of the Supervision Department, someone was quietly inserted into the eyeliner.
Among them, the most suspicious is the monsoon.
"Childe, the wind is blowing......"
Just when Zhao Yu was standing at the bow of the boat, thinking about these messy things, Jiang Yuyan walked out of the shipbuilding and draped a robe on Zhao Yu's body.
"Thank you!"
Zhao Yu looked at Jiang Yuyan and squeezed out a smile with a stiff face.
Immediately, Zhao Yu remembered something, and asked Jiang Yuyan: "King Ning has been escorted to Beijing, what ......?"
Jiang Yuyan smiled slightly, and said to Zhao Yu: "Don't worry, son, within seven days, King Ning will definitely die!" ”
Zhao Yu nodded when he heard this, no matter how he said that he promised King Ning, so as to avoid him from the pain of collecting the scale knife.
In fact, Zhao Yu himself may not know that he doesn't want to keep his promise to King Ning, but he just doesn't want the emperor who calculated him to be happy.
The lucky boat traveled in the canal for a day, and when night fell, Zhao Yu was about to fall asleep, but he didn't want to hear the sound of the announcement outside the door.
Shen Lian walked in quickly, and behind him, there was a man in a wide robe.
"My lord, she wants to see you......"
Shen Lian stepped out of the way, and the man stepped forward and took off his wide hood.
Hokusai?!
Zhao Yu looked at the person who came, frowned slightly, and then turned around and looked at Shen Lian with inquiring eyes.
Shen Lian knew what Zhao Yu meant, and shook his head gently.
"You go and guard the door, no one is allowed to approach the ship without the envoy of this town!"
When Zhao Yu saw Shen Lian shaking his head, he knew about Hokusai's boarding of the ship, but Monsoon didn't know about it.
Only then did he relax a little, and then untied the embroidered spring knife on his waist and threw it to Shen Lian, and said in a cold voice.
"Obey!"
Shen Lian picked up Zhao Yu's embroidered spring knife with both hands, turned around and walked out of the shipbuilding, holding the knife outside the door.
"What? His Royal Highness King Xin can't help it? ”
Zhao Yu sneered at the woman who had a fish and water relationship with him, and asked with a sneer.
Her appearance here has already shown that King Xin is also worried about the jade seal of the country.
Zhao Yu was a little puzzled, why was he in such a hurry?
There are thirteen princes favored by the emperor, and there are orthodox successors, and the emperor does not look like he is short-lived.
Even if he got the heirloom jade seal, apart from attracting the prying eyes of all parties, Zhao Yu really couldn't think of any other benefits.
Rebel?
King Ning has an army of more than 100,000 troops, and all of them are defeated and killed, just by virtue of him, how big a wave can he make?
"Where's the stuff?"
Hokusai didn't pay attention to Zhao Yu's ridicule, but directly stretched out his hand, looked at Zhao Yu and said coldly.
Looking at Hokusai in front of him, Zhao Yu shook his head slightly in his heart.
Originally, I thought that the person who could bring down Wei Zhongxian would be a scheming person, but I didn't expect it to be a short-sighted idiot!
