Chapter 181 Poisoned
Then he will be groggy and powerless to resist. While the effect of the medicine is onset, you can easily take the prince out of the palace. ”
When Xu Qinghe heard this, he looked at Gu Zhiheng and He Nuanliang, both of whom were full of confidence and were bound to win, so he relieved himself and responded again and again, "Since the two nobles said this, it would not be beautiful for the poor to worry about it again." Poor Dao will return to the palace, and prepare early. ”
"Hmm. In that case, you should go back to the palace and get ready. At that time, we must do things safely, and don't make business trips and add unnecessary trouble. Gu Zhiheng nodded slightly, waved his hand at Xu Qinghe, and motioned for him to leave on his own.
So Xu Qinghe immediately saluted the two of them again, and then Shi Shiran left. He walked in a hurry all the way, until he walked out of King Wu's mansion and walked into a secluded alley, and then he showed a little ecstasy.
"This is really 'stepping on iron shoes and finding nowhere to go, and it takes no effort to get it'!" Xu Qinghe thought silently in his heart, almost looking up to the sky and laughing. He never thought that the secret place of the Great Zhou military training, which had been unlawless for a long time, would be unintentionally revealed by Gu Zhiheng so easily.
"This matter should be reported to His Royal Highness the King of Chu as soon as possible, and there can be no delay. Xu Qinghe suddenly remembered this in his heart, and then he calmed down and was excited, and hurriedly left the alley and walked straight towards the palace.
After returning to the palace, Xu Qinghe did not prepare as Gu Zhiheng and the others expected. But it was the first time that the flying pigeon passed the book Chu Lingshen and talked about the secret place of military training.
I hurriedly took out a pen and paper from the room and began to write a letter. The content of the letter is Xu Qinghe's own plan. He had just thought about this plan.
Tonight, Xu Qinghe decided to secretly follow the person who answered him and went to the Beibi Mountain to find out.
Because of the eagerness in my heart, the writing was also a little sloppy, and the eagerness and joy that were almost about to come out jumped on the page.
After it was written, Xu Qinghe took a deep breath, read it carefully, and saw that everything that should be written on the letter was written in detail, and nothing was missing, so he put his mind at ease. After carefully sealing the letter, he found a carrier pigeon, and passed the letter he had written, and passed it to Chu Lingshen in the direction of Chu State.
Twilight quadrangle. The sun was setting little by little, and first a full moon rose, and then the stars gradually rose, and it was nightfall.
At night, the lights of thousands of homes are extinguished, but there is a lamp in the palace, illuminating a small piece of heaven and earth, exuding a little warmth, which is the main hall of the East Palace. At this time, Shen Huo was dealing with the twists and turns sent by the emperor.
The emperor's health is getting worse and worse these days, and after sitting at the table for a long time, he feels very tired in his heart, and his eyes are black, and he can only recover after resting for a while.
In addition, the emperor has the intention to cultivate Shen Huo's ability, and these days, most of the twists and turns in the court are approved by Shen Huo.
There are a lot of twists and turns today, and Shen Huo has read them until late at night, and there are still about seven or eight books left that have not been judged.
Shen Huo sighed lightly, raised his hand and rubbed his temporal cheeks, which slightly reduced his tiredness.
At this moment, a gentle and clever footsteps came, and then a palace maid hurriedly walked in. The maid carried a tray with a cup of tea and a few delicate pastries on it.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been sitting here for so long, you must be tired. Drink some tea, eat some pastries and rest, and then review the folds. The palace maid lowered her head slightly, and her eyebrows were hidden in the shadows, so that people could not see it really.
"Put it down, this palace will drink it in a while." Shen Huo's eyes focused on the twists and turns in front of him, but he didn't doubt him, he didn't even raise his head, and only commanded lightly.
After Shen Huo gave the order, the palace maid bent her knees slightly, bowed her head and answered: "Yes." Yu Yu didn't walk away, he still stayed where he was, until he saw Shen Huo take a sip of tea, his heart settled down, and he turned to leave.
The palace maid turned around, and there was a little smile in her eyes, which was different from the usual smile because of joy, but mixed with a bit of cruelty, and her originally delicate face was a little distorted, but it was terrifying.
This palace maid is the palace maid who has been bought. Seeing that after serving the tea, Shen Huo not only didn't notice it, but also drank all the tea, then he put his mind at ease and left briskly.
Not long after the palace maid left, Xu Qinghe, who was already prepared in the stargazing platform, sent someone to the East Palace to summon Shen Huo according to the plan, and said that the emperor was critically ill.
Shen Huo had just finished reviewing the folds at this time, and was about to straighten up and stretch his bones a little to get rid of the fatigue of his body, but someone came again.
This time it was a little eunuch who looked a little flustered, walked towards Shen Huo in a hurry, and walked straight to the front, only then did he say in a little panic: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, something is wrong." ”
Why are so many people here today? Shen Huo thought silently in his heart, but his face was silent, he only frowned slightly, and said, "What's the matter, what are you doing in such a panic." You catch your breath before you speak. ”
Shen Huo's words, where did the little eunuch dare to disobey in the slightest? Hurriedly nodded and agreed, followed Shen Huo's order to take a few deep breaths, and just calmed down in front of him, then hurriedly said: "The emperor is critically ill, and now he is about to run out of breath, and the emperor ordered the servants to come to look for you." Your Royal Highness the Prince, please follow the minions quickly. ”
"How so? Okay, Hongu knows, you lead the way. When Shen Huo heard this, his eyebrows frowned even tighter, and he said to the little eunuch.
Because the emperor's health has deteriorated in recent days, Shen Huo knew about this, so naturally he didn't have any doubts, but hurried out of the East Palace and went to the other side.
The little eunuch walked in front and Shen Huo in the back, and the two of them walked in a hurry along the way, only walking towards the palace where the emperor was. I don't know how long I walked, but when I was on the palace road, I was stopped by a few people.
After the men stopped them, they did not speak. Shen Huo just frowned and asked, "Who are you?" There is an urgent matter in this palace, so don't stand in the way of this palace. ”
What Shen Huo said, those people turned a deaf ear, and only took out their swords from their arms. The sword light was sparkling, and it rushed straight in the direction of Shen Huo.
Seeing that these people had moved, although Shen Huo had doubts in his heart, he didn't dare to delay on his face, and hurriedly responded.
Shen Huo's martial arts are very strong, even if one person faces these people, he will not fall behind at all, and he will almost defeat those people one after another. However, those people did not panic in the slightest, but were very calm, only looking at Shen Huo indifferently, and even showing a little smile.
Seeing a few people like this, Shen Huo was puzzled in his heart, thinking about a quick solution, so he raised his sword again. However, this time, he faintly felt that something was not quite right, and the sword that used to be easy to use was not able to lift it at this time. Not only that, Shen Huo only felt that his feet were also weak and weak, and he almost couldn't stand up.
Shen Huo took a few deep breaths, and suddenly remembered the little eunuch who had led him all the way forward, and when he turned around and looked again, where was the shadow of the little eunuch?
I was afraid that I was framed by someone, and this thought just flashed in Shen Huo's heart, and the medicinal properties in his body had already occurred. Fang opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, his eyes went dark, and he fainted unconsciously.
The other people watched Shen Huo faint and fell to the ground, and glanced at each other, their eyes full of joy. The leader said with a smile: "The medicine given by His Royal Highness King Wu is really easy to use. In this way, we don't have to be afraid of His Royal Highness the Prince's martial arts anymore. ”
Hearing this, several other people also smiled and nodded happily, and the smug look on their faces could hardly be hidden. Several people stepped forward one after another, lifted Shen Huo up with all hands and feet, and walked quietly towards the outside of the palace.
And behind them, Xu Qinghe was standing. These people were originally sent by Xu Qinghe, and Xu Qinghe was worried that he would not be able to subdue Shen Huo with his own strength, so he simply brought a group of people to come, just to be able to smoothly take Shen Huo out of the palace and hand over to the people sent by Gu Zhiheng.
Several people walked all the way, and when they got out of the palace gate, they walked in the direction of the city gate. When he walked to the gate of the city, he saw a few people standing there, and then stopped.
Xu Qinghe squinted his eyes slightly and looked carefully. I saw that the person at the head he actually knew, and it was Gu Zhiheng's right-hand man.
The man also knew Xu Qinghe, and when he saw Xu Qinghe's serious expression at first, he immediately saw Shen Huo who was unconscious behind him, and then he showed a little smile: "The national teacher is really capable, and this brought His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
"Hmm." Xu Qinghe first replied in a low voice, and then said, "Since the person has been handed over to you, Poor Dao will go back first." With that, Xu Qinghe turned around and prepared to leave.
Xu Qinghe was about to leave, but was stopped by the man. I saw that the man frowned, and his expression was a little unhappy: "It's just a national teacher, I still have something to understand." His Royal Highness King Wu has already arranged for people to be drugged, and you alone are almost enough, why do you bring so many people here? ”
The man's gaze swept over the people who followed behind Xu Qinghe, carrying Shen Huo, and the depression in his eyes became deeper and deeper.
Looking at this, Xu Qinghe hurriedly explained: "Even if the prince is drugged, his martial arts are very strong. If you don't bring more people, the poor road may not be so smooth. ”
Hearing this, and then looking at Xu Qinghe's sincere expression, the man didn't doubt him, nodded his head, and didn't say anything more.
Xu Qinghe handed over the people sent by Gu Zhiheng, and then left in a hurry. In this way, Shen Huo was first taken out of the palace, and then out of the city gate and went to Beibi Mountain.
