Chapter 136: Last Resort

The look that flashed on Mu Qingjue's face did not escape Xiao Ling's eyes, as if he was aware of Mu Qingjue's thoughts, Xiao Ling's eyes lit up, and he suddenly got up from the chair, quickly swept to Mu Qingjue's side, and clicked on his acupoint.

"Presumptuous!Xiao Ling, what are you going to do?Don't forget, this is the palace of the Heavenly Star Kingdom!" Mu Qingjue was enraged by Xiao Ling's sudden movements, but he couldn't move, so he could only open his mouth and scold.

"I naturally know that this is the Heavenly Star Kingdom, but even so, if you are restrained, won't the entire Heavenly Star Kingdom still have to listen to my orders?" Xiao Ling sneered and said, "But don't worry, I have no interest in your Heavenly Star Kingdom, as long as you obediently cooperate with me, I will not do anything to you, but will let you get your wish." ”

After that, Xiao Ling threw a pill into Mu Qingjue's mouth.

The pill melted in his mouth, and Mu Qingjue almost didn't have time to react, so he swallowed the pill into his stomach, and then looked at Xiao Ling with a look of horror:

"What did you give me?"

"Of course it's poison, otherwise do you think it's an elixir?" Xiao Ling spoke, the corners of his mouth full of sarcasm, "Mu Qingjue, let me tell you, from now on you must do what I say, Lou Xiyu and Mu Qingchen betrayed you and concealed so many things from you, can you still tolerate them? As an emperor, how can you be so soft-hearted? The Lou family is now in danger, just waiting for your words, the Lou family will have no place to turn over." Unless...... You don't want to get the antidote. ”

"Are you threatening me? There are many talents in my Heavenly Star Country, so I can't believe that I can't find someone to detoxify me!" Mu Qingjue said.

"Then you can try it, if anyone can solve the poison in your body. Xiao Ling said, "I forgot to tell you that this poison is from southern Xinjiang, and how powerful the poison in southern Xinjiang is, I believe His Majesty Emperor Cheng'an must have heard of it." ”

Hearing the words Nanjiang, Mu Qingjue's eyes suddenly tightened, and his heart was horrified. The most famous poison in southern Xinjiang is Gu poison, which is a bug-like thing that is said to multiply in the human body, devouring the essence and flesh of the person, as long as the person is turned into a rotten body.

Mu Qingjue didn't know much about Gu poison, but in his only cognition, Gu poison was not only dangerous and abnormal, but also incurable, even if there was a solution, it would be very troublesome, maybe he would have died in Huangquan before he found a way to detoxify.

When Xiao Ling found him, he Tianquan investigated Xiao Ling and knew that he had a connection with Southern Xinjiang, so it was not strange that Xiao Ling could get Gu poison, if what Xiao Ling said was true, then his life was now in Xiao Ling's hands.

"How's it going?" Xiao Ling seemed to know what Mu Qingjue was thinking in his heart, and didn't bother him, but only spoke up after a long time, "This is evidence that the Lou family colluded with Emperor Xiao Yi of Ningyue, Lou Xiyu led the Lou family army to rebel, deceived the monarch, and rebelled, it depends on how His Majesty Emperor Cheng'an uses this thing." ”

As Xiao Ling spoke, he took out a stack of papers from his sleeve, put it on Mu Qingjue's desk, sneered, and explained Mu Qingjue's acupoints, then turned around and left, floating out, no one stopped him.

Mu Qingjue was freed from the shackles, turned to look at these things on the case, and knew in his heart that Xiao Ling came prepared this time, and even the evidence of the so-called Lou family's treason plot against the enemy was ready, if he didn't agree to do it to the Lou family, he would threaten him by poisoning him.

Picking up the evidence on the case, Mu Qingjue looked at it one by one, about the Lou family's rebellious things, one by one, they were all full of evidence and irrefutable, if it weren't for Mu Qingjue and Lou Xiyu growing up together since childhood, if it weren't for him knowing that General Lou was loyal to the Tianxing Kingdom, I'm afraid he would really have to believe it.

But now...... Even if he believed that the Lou family was innocent, he was already ready to send it.

Because, his life is now in Xiao Ling's hands. Xiao Ling is a complete villain who can do anything, so he would rather believe this so-called Southern Xinjiang Gu Poison.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Qing is asking to see you outside. Just as Mu Qingjue lowered his head and pondered, the voice of the eunuch suddenly came from the door, saying so.

In order to help Mu Qingjue frame Lou Xiyu, Gonggong Du, who went to Nanjun to deliver the decree before, was poisoned by Mu Qingchen's poison and had already died of poison, so at this time, it was Gonggong Du's apprentice Xiao Dezi who was waiting for Mu Qingjue.

"Let her in. When Mu Qingjue heard the word Qingfei, the look on his face eased slightly, and he waved his hand and commanded.

With permission, Lu Qiao thanked Xiao Dezi, and then walked into the imperial study, dressed in plain blue clothes, because it was winter, he was still wearing a light green cloak, which was very different from the heavy makeup and brocade clothes of the harem beauties, and it was always such an elegant and refined appearance.

"The concubine asked the emperor for peace. Lu Qiao saluted Mu Qingjue, and spoke, with a smile on his face, and his gentle voice suddenly swept away the depression in Mu Qingjue's heart.

"Why does Concubine Ai have time to come over?" Mu Qingjue helped Concubine Qing, walked to the dragon chair at the top and sat down, let Concubine Qing sit beside him, and asked.

Since Mu Qingjue ascended the throne, no harem concubine has been able to sit on the dragon chair with him, but since Lu Qiao entered the palace, this rule seems to have been frequently broken.

The weather gradually got colder, and the concubine specially stewed a pot of black chicken soup to send the emperor to replenish her body and go to the cold. As he spoke, he gave the two maids below a look and asked them to bring the soup.

One of the lotus leaves and lotus seeds held the soup, the other held a bowl, poured a bowl for Mu Qingjue, and waited for Mu Qingjue to drink the soup, and then retreated.

"Aifei's craftsmanship has improved again, this soup is smooth and delicious, oily but not greasy, and really delicious. Mu Qingjue said.

"The concubine thanks the emperor for his praise, it is a blessing for the concubine to make the emperor like it. Green Qiao said very well-behaved.

"If everyone was like you, thinking about me in everything, I wouldn't have so many worries. Mu Qingjue listened to Lu Qiao's words, and suddenly sighed, his tone full of helplessness.

If the emperor is unhappy, he can say bluntly to the concubine that the concubine is willing to become the emperor's confidant and share all the sorrows for the emperor. Green Joe said very intimately.

Mu Qingjue has been on the throne for so long, how have he ever met such a gentle and loving person as Lu Qiao? In the harem, whether it is the queen or other concubines, all of them were selected from various families in the Tianxing Kingdom to enter the palace in order to consolidate the throne.

Now, Lu Qiao not only satisfied his dignity as an emperor, but also fulfilled his vanity as a man, how could he not be moved in his heart? So he never concealed it at all, and told Lu Qiao everything in 1510.

Lu Qiao listened quietly, her eyes flashed with complicated light, when she heard that Mu Qingjue wanted to publish those so-called evidence to the world in order to save her life, so that the people of the world would know that the Lou family was rebellious, her heart was suffocated, and she couldn't help but think of Mu Qingchen in her mind.

A few days ago, she had already received a secret letter from Mingyue, the protector of the Star Picking Building, asking her to inquire about Lou Xiyu's situation in the palace, so she waited for a suitable time before coming to the imperial study to find Mu Qingjue, but she didn't expect that Mu Qingjue was forced by Xiao Ling to do something to the Lou family so soon.

Now that Lou Xiyu is alone in prison, the matter has not yet reached the point of no return, and the Lou family still has hope of preserving, but if all the Lou family members are convicted and imprisoned, then it will be more difficult to do things in Xinglou, so she must think of a way before Mu Qingjue makes a move.

"Your Majesty, do you also believe that General Lou's family is really colluding with Ning Yuexiang and plotting against him?" asked Lu Qiao tentatively.

may be because Lu Qiao has always been well-behaved and obedient, so Mu Qingjue did not doubt her intentions, so she said truthfully:

"The old general Lou has been fighting for the Tianxing Kingdom all his life, and he is loyal, I naturally don't believe that the old general will betray me, but Lou Xiyu is not necessarily. Lou Xiyu had a soft spot for the imperial sister Mu Qingchen before, if she was used by Mu Qingchen, I am afraid that she would really be impulsive and do something harmful to the Heavenly Star Kingdom. What's more, this time he failed to bring Xiao Yi back, and Lou Xiyu was also derelict in his duties. ”

"Your Majesty, Princess Jade Hook...... Isn't she already dead?, when the Moon Condensing Palace was changing, she was ...... by a fire," Midori asked in surprise.

At the beginning, Mu Qingjue placed Mu Qingchen in Langyu Xiaozhu, which was hidden from the world, and no one in the palace of Tianxing Kingdom knew that Princess Yuhook lived in Langyu Xiaozhu, and they all thought that it was Mu Qingjue's beautiful woman hidden in the golden house, including now, Tianquan's senior sister Yao Yan lives in it, and she is also troubled by the concubine of the harem.

Mu Qingjue listened to Lu Qiao's question, and was stunned in his heart, and then reacted, he seemed to have missed something, but seeing Lu Qiao's picture of not knowing anything, he was very comforted in his heart, in this world, at least there is such a woman who believes in him wholeheartedly.

Thinking of this, Mu Qingjue poured out the secrets that had been hidden in his heart for a long time to Lu Qiao, including how he knew Mu Qingchen's route to escape from the Ningyue Palace, how he reached an agreement with Mu Qingchen, and why he suspected Mu Qingchen and Lou Xiyu.

She ...... It's no longer my sister, she's just a soul that has taken up the body of the jade hook, she's ...... It's Ye Chengcheng, you should have heard of this name. Mu Qingjue said.

"Ye Tingcheng?Is it the strange woman who moved the world back then, Ye Tingcheng?, the first queen of the Ningyue Kingdom, Ye Tingcheng?" asked Midori as he pretended to be surprised.

However, the surprise on her face at this time was not pretended, she didn't expect that the identity of the landlord would be noticed by Mu Qingjue so quickly, no wonder...... No wonder Mu Qingjue wanted to attack Lou Xiyu, it turned out that he was afraid that Lou Xiyu would become a sword in the hands of the landlord, and after destroying Ning Yue, he would turn back and be bad for Tianxing.
