Chapter 50 Discuss countermeasures and act in secret
"See the emperor!" The Nine Domains shouted as they stood outside the hall.
"Don't see it, tell me about the situation! It's almost midnight!" Lan Zhenqing was already dozing off, if he hadn't talked to Lu Qiqi, he would have fallen asleep a long time ago.
"Your Majesty, master, at present, it has been cleaned up, including the woman in cloth, a total of twenty-three people have died, including twelve embroidered girls, three entourages, five palace maids, one inner chamberlain, one guard, these people, the nearest inner chamberlain, died in one minute, and the farthest away was a guard five meters away, only a drop on the face, and died after staying up for half an hour, and the imperial doctor was testing whether it was river poisoning."
"No, didn't this woman be searched for hiding drugs on her body, didn't I remember to be strictly searched, and arranged for many palace maids to go over, just to prevent it from happening!" Lan Zhenqing shook off her robe, and her angry eyebrows trembled.
"Your Majesty, this woman's poison is not put on her body, but eaten in her stomach, so she can't find it!"
"Eat in your stomach?" Lan Zhenqing was a little strange, "How can she survive until now if she eats it in her stomach?"
"Your Majesty, I don't know this for the time being!"
"I know!" Lu Qiqi jumped off the stool.
"The woman put the poison into a kind of elastic and tough film, and then ate it into her stomach, if she is unlucky, the film will isolate the poison from the woman's organs, so she will not be poisoned, at least until the film is broken, she will be fine, her target is my Hou Ye, therefore, she must wait until the Hou Ye appears, and is close enough to take action, that is, when the final winner is announced in the last ring. Her primary target is Hou Ye, and the second should be Xiu Niang, but the mastermind behind the scenes knows Hou Ye's martial arts, if it is too far, the success rate is not great, so he used the suicide attack of a suicide bomber. Once Hou Ye appears, she will start to slowly luck and break her body, and at the same time, the film with poison will also burst, and it will mix flesh and blood to produce an incredible explosion, as long as it is stained with a little, she will definitely die, yes, the clothes she wears are also extremely loose clothes, even if her stomach bulges, it is not easy to be noticed. What the hell is this poison, so powerful?"
"Actually, it's not a poison, it's a poisonous insect! When it encounters a human body, it will burrow into the human body, and in a short period of time, it will eat and destroy the human organs, and there is no cure," Jiuyu said with palpitations, "We didn't know at first, and we also lost a guard for this. ”
"Damn, it's cruel!" Lu Qiqi's face was full of shock, the mastermind behind this scene was completely inhuman, and in order to assassinate Xia Liangyu, it was to the point of madness.
"Nine Domains, what's happened to the Luoying Palace!" Xia Liangyu patted Lu Qiqi's head.
"Master, the corpse has been burned on the spot, and all the pillars on the ground have been roasted twice with fire inch at a time, but for a period of time, the Luoying Hall can no longer open the door, for fear that there will be a leak, so that these poisonous insects will overflow, however, some poisonous insects have been extracted from the hospital on the spot, and after observation, it is found that it will automatically die after leaving the human body for about an hour, and it will die in a few seconds in seventy degrees of water, so as long as the Luoying Hall is blocked in the past few days and roasted a few more times with fire, it should not cause large-scale infection. In addition, there are a total of ten palace maids who have not been affected, except for one questionable person who has been arraigned separately, the others are temporarily imprisoned in the dungeon of the Luoying Palace, guarded by our people. ”
"Hey, Xia Qing, what does this mean, is it possible that these people are also poisoned? So you're going to be locked up?" Lan Zhenqing was confused.
"Stupid!" Lu Qiqi unceremoniously made up for it, this time, she had forgotten in her eyes that Lan Zhenqing was an emperor, who made him far from the emperor she imagined.
"It's not ......, I'm ......, okay, I'm stupid, you're smart, you can solve your doubts!" Lan Zhenqing's neck was thick, and he glared at Lu Qiqi waiting for an explanation.
"First of all, the woman in cloth is not the only one in that hall."
"Why?" Lan Zhenqing couldn't help but ask, and regretted it after asking, and couldn't wait to bite his tongue.
Lu Qiqi laughed twice, and when he saw Lan Zhenqing's unhappy face, he immediately shut up.
"The suicide bombing of the cloth-clothed woman is powerful, but it is not certain whether it can be done, so someone must be at the scene to observe the results and then spread the news. It's a pity that Hou Ye acted quickly, and he let the Nine Domains seal the big and small doors of the Luoying Hall as soon as possible, so the messenger must not have been able to go out, and the news naturally could not be delivered. If I'm not mistaken, this mole should be the good-looking palace maid at the back of the corridor on the left. As soon as she came, she was far away and hid behind a pillar, and when I saw danger, I instinctively glanced at the scene, but I was pressed for time and didn't have time to care about her, I was right!"
Jiu Yu was surprised, he didn't expect that in that kind of emergency, Lu Qiqi could actually observe this, and the reaction was really fast, but he was very curious, how could Lu Qiqi act before the woman could move? If he was not mistaken, it was Lu Qiqi who acted first at the scene, so his first reaction at that time was that Lu Qiqi wanted to assassinate his master, so that he missed the opportunity to push away the woman in cloth.
"Yes, it's that woman, she wanted to run out while she was in chaos, and I took it down, after interrogation, she didn't know who was behind it, yesterday, she received a letter from outside the palace, threatening her father's life, and asking her to send what happened in the hall to an alley outside the hall as soon as possible."
"Did the people waiting for the letter out there catch it?"
"Back to the emperor, no, by the time we finish the trial, the person will be gone!"
"Master Hou!" Lu Qiqi threw himself into Xia Liangyu's arms all of a sudden, "I think, tomorrow, we can issue an obituary and announce the list of the dead, and the most important thing is to put the name of this palace maid and my name in it, let's just say that this competition, because someone sabotage, the top ten embroidery girls were all killed, so you need to start the competition again, the time is set for ten days later, what do you think?"
Xia Liangyu reached out and pinched Lu Qiqi's round face, and nodded, "Smart!"
Jiuyu and Lan Zhenqing looked at each other, a little incomprehensible.
"Why?" Lan Zhenqing spoke with the beautiful quality of asking if she didn't understand.
"Your Majesty, the enemy's purpose is two, one is to harm the marquis, and the other is to get rid of the top embroidery girl, the general purpose is not to let the Northern Xinjiang Army have cold cotton clothes to resist the invasion of Beining," Lu Qiqi nested in Xia Liangyu's arms and said unhurriedly, "Since this is the case, then let's take this opportunity to change the production of the winter coat from light to dark, at present, the people who know that I take the first place are all controlled, plus I am just a ten-year-old girl, No matter how powerful the enemy is, he can't guess that I can make a unique warm cotton coat, and I am already on the death list, so I will naturally not fall into the enemy's sight, so I have time to make cold equipment, and then Ming Xiu plank road dark Chen Cang, smuggling this batch of materials to the frontier, this is dark, as for re-preparing for the game, it is just to confuse the enemy, to buy me more time, this is clear. One light and one dark, cooperate with each other, and when the enemy reacts, the winter clothes we have made should have almost arrived at the front line, but these materials cannot go together, they must be sent to the front line in batches, the less people know, the safer!"
"Got it!" Lan Zhenqing finally understood why Xia Liangyu asked him to push everyone back, it turned out to be to prevent news leakage.
……
"Okay, everything has been negotiated, let's implement it according to the plan, at most a month, the winter clothes on the front line can be ready, we can take advantage of the fact that Beining is not prepared, launch an attack in advance, and directly destroy it, the other three countries will not dare to act rashly when they see that Beining is retreating, right, Hou Ye!" Lu Qiqi looked at Xia Liangyu with an expression of begging for praise and praise.
"Yes, great! However, if the other three countries see that Bac Ninh is not good, they will inevitably jump over the wall and attack together, so we have to attack on two fronts at the same time, and the other two lines will defend, and then support the southern and western fronts after destroying Bac Ninh Dongsang. ”
Lu Qiqi was a little puzzled at first, and then he understood, "These four countries should not be united, these years they have taken a fancy to the Zhu country getting stronger and stronger, they are afraid, and they begin to slowly approach, once they see that Beining is not protected, their lips are cold, and they will inevitably be afraid that the next one to be destroyed is themselves, so they will definitely take the opportunity to attack, right!"
"That's right!"
Lan Zhenqing's mouth kept "tsk".
"There is a Xiahou Ye who is enough of a god, and here is another person with so many hearts, you say, you two are not invincible in the world when you get together!"
"Hmph, who wants to be invincible in the world, I don't have that much ambition, I just want to lie down in the sun every day, don't worry about food or clothing, and Xia Liangyu waits for me, and lives like a rice worm. Seriously, Your Majesty, if it weren't for the mess of your family, how could our marquis be so tired, I would have taken him to live in a free and easy world for two!"
The corners of Xia Liangyu's mouth couldn't help but curl, many people took a fancy to him, but it was because he was a marquis and took a fancy to the power in his hands, otherwise he took a fancy to his unsatisfactory figure, who could see his cold soul? Stripped of his power and his fancy clothes, he is a fierce and vicious demon, and who else will willingly approach him?
Except for Lu Qiqi! He had a natural trust in her, he didn't know why, but that trust was so deep in his bones that he couldn't intellectually say why, but his soul approached her without disobedience.
"Oh, I know, but I can't help it, don't I also suffer in this position I don't like? Four years ago, several brothers fought hard for this position, and in the end, none of them were good, and foreign enemies were eyeing each other, for the sake of those Li people, your marquis secretly came back once and pressed me on the throne, did I say anything? Besides, the day when your lord is still free, what about me, there is no successor, I have to work for the rest of my life, I don't want to live even if I think about it!"
Lan Zhenqing sat on the ground with a sad face.
"I used to think that the emperor was the most wanton person in the world, with delicacies from the mountains and seas, and groups of beautiful women, how chic and chic he was, and he lived like a fairy, but now when I see your appearance, I don't feel surprised, how much glory and wealth you enjoy, how much responsibility you have to bear, and the people pay so many taxes to the treasury every year, in order to let the emperor work for their well-being, and the water can carry the boat and overturn the boat, that's the truth! Ask for your own blessings!" Lu Qiqi patted Emperor Lan Zhenqing's shoulder and comforted.
"Don't look at him now, when he goes out of this door, he will be more like the emperor and how much like the emperor, I secretly go back to the court once a year to report, he will withdraw everyone, and then splash and roll in front of me once, I'm used to it!" Xia Liangyu picked up the teacup and unceremoniously revealed Lan Zhenqing's shortcomings.
"Roar, I know, this world is also in front of you, he can release his true temperament, other times, the guns and arrows make him unable to relax, he can only live with a mask, hey, it's no wonder it's difficult for him! Your Majesty, although I can't help you much, I sympathize with you from the bottom of my heart and support you, you have to work hard, train a successor well, and hand over the shift as soon as possible! Come on, oh force give!"
Lan Zhenqing was encouraged and her spirit improved a lot.
"Come on! By the way, Xia Qing, I have two sons now, I don't know which of them is suitable to be the emperor, can you help me take a look?"
"Don't worry, I'm still young, after the age of ten, it will naturally be clear at a glance." Xia Liangyu said while playing with Lu Qiqi's little hand.
"Okay, then wait a few more years!" Lan Zhenqing nodded, with Xia Liangyu's words, he had a bottom in his heart.
"Wow, Your Majesty, how old are you, you already have a son? You shouldn't get married when you're underage! Lu Qiqi looked at the emperor in front of him who didn't know if he was in his twenties or not, and exclaimed.
Lan Zhenqing's face suddenly turned as red as a dog's butt.
"Poof", Jiuyu couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.
Comparatively speaking, Xia Liangyu was the most calm, but looking closely, his eyebrows trembled.
Lan Zhenqing was really convinced, he pointed at Lu Qiqi with a trembling hand, "You, you, are you still a girl?" Is there a little bit of reserve that a little girl should have? ”
Lu Qiqi rolled his eyes, "No, I'm just a little gangster who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, what's wrong!" Oops, don't divert the topic, let's talk about it, let me surprise again! ”
Lan Zhenqing was so angry that she turned around and ignored her.
Lu Qiqi blinked and smiled with a thief's eyes. This is the emperor, she actually tricked the emperor, this has to be put aside, she would never have dreamed that she has watched too many court dramas and TV series, and the image of the emperor has also been solidified, who would have thought that the emperor would be like this!
"It's not early, I have to go back, Qiqi is sleepy!" Xia Liangyu saw Lu Qiqi looking at Lan Zhenqing grinning with bared teeth, and couldn't stop sour bubbles in his heart, he picked up Lu Qiqi and stood up.
"Huh? I....... ”
Lu Qiqi was about to say that she was not sleepy, and she was in good spirits! Seeing Xia Liangyu hugging her, he immediately shut up, nestled into his arms, and deliberately replied with a confused look, "Yes, I'm so sleepy!"
The acid bubbles in Xia Liangyu's heart quickly died down.
Lan Zhenqing turned his head and glared at Lu Qiqi, who was talking nonsense.
After Xia Liangyu walked a few steps, he suddenly turned his head.
"By the way, Your Majesty, from now on, I will also disappear, and I will be disguised by the Nine Domains when I enter and leave the Hou Mansion."
"Huh? You're going to disappear too?" Lan Zhenqing's eyes widened, "Wouldn't that mean I have to clean up the mess?"
"No, you hand over the second cotton clothes competition to Shen Duxing, and he will be fully responsible."
"Xia Qing, you don't suspect that this matter has something to do with Shen Xiang, right?" Lan Zhenqing's expression suddenly became serious.
Xia Liangyu shook his head.
"No, although he wants to win, but he has not reached the point of being mad and wants to harm me, after all, he is a native of Zhongzhu and knows which is more important."
"That's good, then why leave it to him?"
"Shen Duxing is reluctant to give up this piece of fat, so let him taste the sweetness first, in this way, he will also be more active, and the enemy's eyes will not be able to focus all on me, and Shen Duxing is not good at stubble, maybe he can find out a few shrimp soldiers and crab generals."
Lu Qiqi laughed awkwardly, Xia Liangyu was really black-bellied, and dared to let Shen Xiangguo share some firepower for them.
"Okay, okay, just do it, I have already seen that Shen Xiangguo is unhappy, and he can't help but look at me with a horizontal nose and eyes, a pair of unbeatable virtues, this will take the opportunity to rectify him."
Lan Zhenqing finally seized the opportunity to rectify Shen Duxing, and her eyes lit up.
Shen Duxing, who was reading a book in the study, sneezed inexplicably.
He looked up at the window, rubbed his nose, and muttered, "Who is trying to calculate me?"
The willow tree outside the window shook silently, as if to say something?
Shen Duxing's eyebrows raised and he sighed, "Hey, find me something to do again!" ”
