Section 41 Poisoning

Pei Du Pei Zhongli felt bitter in his heart, although the Pei clan in Hedong was known as the crown of generations, but in fact, it was just a new warrior clan that had only risen in the previous dynasty, and now it has a feeling of being a little powerless.

There are talented people in the country, that is, they are as romantic as Wang Xie back then, and the prosperity will always be blown away by the rain and wind. Pei Du has always wanted to seize the current opportunity to cultivate some more foundations for the future of the Pei family.

Speaking of conscience, after the emperor came into power, he was the first to think of himself in the east of the town, and transferred himself back to serve as the left servant of Shangshu, Pei Du was very grateful to Li Xu in his heart.

But in the matter of recovering Victoria, Pei Du could not support the emperor.

This is the imperial court, since Father-in-law Yu has already expressed his position, then no courtier will dare to object, this is the proof that Gonggong Yu killed the two sons of the God Emperor three years ago.

Pei Du is ready to try to convince the emperor that Yu Fuguo is not an immortal, he will always die, he will always be old, and he can always wait until he leaves. At that point, it was not too late for the emperor to do anything, after all, the emperor was still young.

If we really want to imitate the noble townsman Cao Chao in the past to destroy the powerful minister Sima clan, what kind of strength can the emperor rely on? Jin Wuwei, who is half deserted, or Li Jifu, who is far away in Sichuan and Shu?

Yu Fuguo had already killed a real emperor, and Pei Du believed that he would not mind killing the second one.

When Shangshu Zuo Servant hurriedly arrived at the Qingliang Palace, he found that Li Congxian, the general of Zuo Jinwu, had already surrounded the Qingliang Hall with the armor soldiers of the Jin Wuwei, and the eyes of the Jinwu guards with helmets and armor were a little confused and trembling, only Li Congxian was wearing black heavy armor, wearing a red cloak, touching the sword on his waist with one hand, and standing at the door of the Qingliang Hall with a scarf in the other, and Huang Shiliang with a vicious look beside him.

"What does Congxian mean here?" Pei Du left his attendant and walked through the encirclement of Jinwu's guards to Li Congxian, his anger almost irrepressible. Li Congxian and he are both old ministers from the era of the God Emperor, and there is still some incense between them, Jin Wuwei is now putting on such a look, does he want to kill out of the palace and merge with the forbidden arms?

"Brother Zhongli, I have received a secret edict from His Majesty, and the handsome soldiers will guard the dormitory. Li Congxian didn't call Pei Du's official position and directly called him the word.

"What a secret edict? If the Chinese book province does not write and the subordinate province does not censor it, then it is not a court order. Pei Du understood that the emperor really wanted to do it. But because of a little thing, he was going to make blood splash in the palace, and he would take in another majesty.

"Someone poisoned His Majesty. Huang Shiliang glanced at Li Congxian in disgust, and added: "Your Majesty wrote a secret edict to General Li, so General Li is here to escort him." Just now he let the King of Shu and the King of Light enter the palace, saying that he wanted to give an explanation. ”

Poisoning? What is this?

Changed elbows and armpits, Pei Du was even more anxious, why didn't such a big news come out in the palace, didn't he say that His Majesty was just infected with the wind and cold, why was he poisoned by someone now.

Pei Du was about to go inside, but a tall figure in armor was blocked in front of him.

With a bang, Li Congxian pulled out the sword with a blade like autumn water and placed it in front of him.

"Pei Zhongli, there is no holy decree, no one is allowed to enter and exit at will to spy on the truth. ”

Sure enough, the dormitory was sealed. Facing Li Congxian's white blade, Pei Du waved his robe sleeves: "Li Congxian, I am the left servant of Shangshu Province, I want to face the saint, and you dare to stop it?"

"Brother Zhong, the father-in-law of the Qingliang Hall can't be put in. Li Congxian snorted at him: "You can't even do Shang Shuling." ”

"Li Congxian, I see that you are isolated from the inside and outside, and you clearly want to rebel. After saying cruel words, Pei Du was also anxious to put down the shelf of Zaizhi and said: "Congxian, you are the pillar of the country, and you have to persuade Your Majesty not to mess around." ”

"Brother neutral, there is a traitor who wants to poison Your Majesty, why am I isolated from the inside and outside. ”

No matter what Pei Du said, Li Congxian just didn't let him in, the anxious Pei Du never gave up, and Huang Shiliang didn't open his mouth but stood with his eyebrows lowered on the side.

Outside the Qingliang Palace, it was noisy, and in the Qingliang Palace, Li Xu was lying on the couch, his face was pale, and he looked like he was about to die. There were two chairs in front of his couch, and the King of Shu and the King of Light sat on the chairs tremblingly, for fear that the emperor who was lying on the bed would be caught and attacked by Jin Wuwei.

The oppressive atmosphere is like a sponge, absorbing all the sounds around it, leaving only silence. In this silence, Li Xu's heavy breathing was like a broken bellows, and the heads of the King of Light and the King of Shu were sweaty.

"Ahem...... cough ......" Li Xu coughed violently a few times, as if he was about to cough his lungs out of his chest, and the emperor reluctantly got up from the bed, and his two eyes swept over the King of Light and the King of Shu in front of him.

"Brother Huang. The feelings of the little drama bone King Shu were the first to brew, and tears rolled down from his eyes, although it was a little exaggerated, but fortunately, the feelings were sincere and pitiful.

"Your Majesty. The old acting school King Guangwang did not lose too much to the King of Shu, his eyes were red, his voice was choked, and he was obviously moved by his true feelings.

Li Xu sat up on the edge of the bed.

"I'm afraid that I'm like the previous emperor, calculated by others. Li Xu shook his head, looking like a tuberculosis with more air out and less air intake. "In the future, this big country will still depend on you. ”

"Your Majesty, what are these words, Your Majesty is prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the Dayu Jiangshan Sheji still depends on Your Majesty......" King Guang immediately said: "Your Majesty should recuperate your body first, and ...... in the future"

Li Xu sensed the almost ecstatic mood in the hearts of the two people in front of him, after all, if he passed away, then the throne would inevitably be inherited by the two in front of him.

"I'm afraid there is nothing left in the future, Uncle Huang. Li Xu looked at the King of Light, the tears in the other party's eyes and the sadness on his face formed an excellent ironic scene with the ecstasy in his heart, making him feel happy.

"My body, I know it, now the true qi is swimming in all the meridians around the body, and there is nothing in the sea of dantian qi, and those who practice martial arts are a sign that the oil is running out and the lamp is dry. Li Xu coughed twice more. "It is estimated that in less than half a month, I will go to see the God Emperor. ”

"Brother Huang. "Your Majesty. The King of Shu and the King of Light cried again.

"I have raised the world for four years, and I have been subject to the Empress Dowager Wen for three years, if you want to say what I have done in the past four years, it is three small things. The first is to sweep away the Wen Party and change the pattern since the Holy Queen. The second was to quell the Manichaean turmoil, and the third was to fight the Uighurs. It didn't contribute much, but it left a mess. The emperor's face was sad: "In the future, I am afraid that the history books will write me as a faint king, but with me in front of me, it is just right for Tang Wu to make a difference." ”

The King of Shu and the King of Light looked at the emperor with fearful and greedy eyes, waiting for the emperor to speak and continue. The so-called "coffin closure", the current emperor is obviously making a conclusion for himself, so who will succeed him as the emperor?

"Who voted for my poison, you don't have to investigate, just like how the God Emperor practiced back then, you don't need to investigate it in detail. "The emperor was lucky enough to force some blood out of his nose. "You can only hate to be controlled by others, and you can't use your ambitions, you have to learn from me and the God Emperor. ”

Another whimpering nod in response.

"The country depends on the monarch. Li Xu continued, as soon as this sentence came out, he saw the almost irrepressible ecstasy of the King of Light and the deep despair on the face of the King of Shu.

"However, my brother is still young," Li Xu gasped and directly flashed the waist of the King of Light, making the King of Shu resurrect. "There's no way around it. ”

Suddenly, the cry changed, the voice of the King of Shu became louder and louder, and the King of Light could hardly make a sound.

"King Guang is the elder of the clan, and when the time comes, please ask King Guang to be the regent temporarily. As soon as the emperor's words changed, the cry of the King of Shu was lowered, and the King of Light began to exert his lung capacity.

"Han Gang, Pei Du, and Cheng Qili don't have any people who can be trusted. "Li Xu has now begun to control his true qi, which stimulates the corners of his eyes and forces blood out. "The so-called emperor is a lonely man, you must remember. ”

Now the King of Shu and the King of Light couldn't cry anymore, they looked at the emperor's bleeding face, and their feelings were complicated.

The "......" Emperor stretched out two hands and asked the King of Shu and the King of Light to hold one each. "I will send someone to kill Empress Dowager Wen and clear the last bit of way for you. ”

The King of Shu looked at the emperor's eyes, nostrils, mouth, and ears, and there were blood lines flowing down, and the whole person was already covered with joy.

"Be kind to Wen Meiren, she doesn't have any scheming. Li Xu looked at the King of Shu, and the dead man's head in the other party's pupils looked very scary.

"Brother ......"

"Reuse Li Deyu, Li Shen and Yuan Zhen, Li Congxian and Han Rui are all credible......" The emperor squeezed the hand of King Shu.

"The Emperor's ......"

"My brother," Li Xu raised the hand of the King of Shu, as if he had exhausted all his strength. “...... When it is Yao Shun. ”

After closing his words, the emperor of Dayu, Li Xu's body was weak, and he fell to the bed like this.

"Dead?" King Guang felt that the emperor's hands were surprisingly cold now, and he turned his head to look at King Shu with an inquiring gaze, only to find that his good nephew was staring at him with a cold gaze. Indeed, his position as regent has indeed cast a shadow on whether the king of Shu can succeed to the throne smoothly.

"Your Majesty is dead?" the King of Light asked in a low voice.

"Uncle Huang, there is no regent in His Majesty's will, right?" The small body of the King of Shu turned around, revealing a kind of momentum that only a king has.

King Guang ignored him and probed his hand to Li Xu's nose and found that there was indeed no sound.

"Yes, yes, there is no regent. King Guang muttered on his lips, but what he thought in his heart was to hurry out to find Cheng Qili, and use the power of the forbidden army to obtain the approval of the rulers and immediately ascend the throne.

The King of Shu looked at the King of Light, and the King of Light looked at the King of Shu, and they all knew in their hearts that the other party was his biggest opponent on the supreme throne at this moment.

The killing intent has been decided.

Suddenly.

"Whew," Li Xu shuddered, and got up from the bed again: "You guys stand down, I'm tired." ”

The killing intent dissipated, and the King of Shu and the King of Light knelt on the ground and bowed down.

They all know that their battlefield is outside.
