Chapter 132: The Death of Yan Hou

Not long after nightfall, in the Funing Hall of the Imperial Palace, Emperor Haoxing Xiaoyin frowned and listened to the imperial doctor's report on the queen's recent illness. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Since the day she heard that Yan Xingbao's case was about to be tried, Empress Yan couldn't afford to fall ill because she was worried about her nephew. After consultation with a number of doctors from the Tai Hospital, they came to the conclusion that the queen's illness was ferocious, which was actually caused by a rush to attack the heart, and it was necessary to use some decoction to regulate the liver and pulse and slowly recuperate.

In addition to visiting Shoukang Palace in person, the queen also has to listen to the queen's illness report to the imperial doctor who is responsible for diagnosing the queen's illness every day, which shows the emperor's love for the queen.

Hearing that the imperial physician said that the queen's illness has improved greatly, and today she can even walk on the ground, and she has eaten more soup porridge than usual, the emperor Haoxing Xiaoyin's originally frowning brows suddenly relaxed, and a pleased smile appeared on his face, praised the imperial doctor a few words, and sent him down.

"Yan Xingbao let go, the queen's illness will be cured immediately, sure enough, it is a heart disease and needs a heart medicine!" At this moment, Haoxing Xiaoyin's face had already changed to a cold color, "It's a pity that after I get the evidence of King Ji's collusion with the courtiers in the hands of Yan Yuguang tomorrow, I am afraid that the queen's illness will never get better!"

Zheng Yong listened to it tremblingly, thinking that after the emperor adopted the proposal of the left minister, he would no longer hate King Ji too much, and would be somewhat forgiven for the things he secretly did to form a party.

And in the past few days, the emperor seems to have been in a good mood, and when he mentions King Ji, he is not gritting his teeth as he was a few days ago, thinking that he is not going to use any thunderous means on his eldest son of the emperor.

Unexpectedly, it turned out that the emperor had never wanted to let King Ji go in his heart, and the reason why he was not punished immediately was just waiting for the roster in Yan Yuguang's hands.

Now that Yan Xingbao has been acquitted, the emperor can be regarded as fulfilling his promise to Yan Yuguang, so he naturally has to obediently hand over the roster that may be related to the lives of many people.

This time, there shouldn't be another bloody bloodbath, right?......

Thinking of this, Zheng Yong couldn't help but shudder again.

He still remembers that after the rebellion of King Huai was suppressed more than ten years ago, the emperor not only destroyed the palace of King Huai under the anger of thunder, but also gave King Huai's biological mother Chen Defei to death.

For a while, the entire Jingyang City was washed in blood, and the bluestones paved on the long cross street used as the execution ground were dyed red stone. A large amount of blood seeped into the stone face, although after more than ten years of rain and snow, there are still faint mottled red marks on those bluestones.

On the day when all the men in the Huai Palace's palace were beheaded, the emperor actually sent him, the chief administrator, to supervise the beheading.

The sword flashed, blood splattered, and the head rolled......

Even he, a pervert who has always taken pleasure in torturing people, was so frightened that he almost lost his temper, and secretly complained that the emperor did not give him the opportunity to watch Ling Chi's punishment, but gave him such a bloody and funless drudgery.

Zheng Yong was immersed in a long memory with fear in his heart, when suddenly a little eunuch ran in, knelt down and reported to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Xiangguo's Mansion just sent someone to send a message over, the Marquis of Xiangguo has just suddenly fallen ill and passed away in the mansion!"

Suddenly, a spirit came back to his senses, and Zheng Yong saw that after the emperor listened to the little eunuch's report, he had been gloomy and did not speak, so he hurriedly waved his hand to send the little eunuch away.

Then, he peeked at the emperor's face again, and Fang cautiously reminded: "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Xiangguo is the uncle of the country, should this news be informed of the queen's mother?"

"Hmph! I'm afraid the news from the queen's side is faster than the one I came here!" Hao Xing Xiaoqi narrowed his eyes and smiled coldly, "The Yan family is really not to be underestimated, and they will know how to make a trade-off at any time!"

Zheng Yong immediately shut up in fright, although he didn't quite understand the meaning of the emperor's words, he could still hear the cold meaning in the emperor's tone.

"Zheng Yong, you ordered someone to investigate, what forces in the rivers and lakes did the Yan clan have mastered, and they were so arrogant that they dared to commit frequent murders under my nose, it was really hateful!"

"The old slave will confess!" Zheng Yong finally understood what the emperor meant this time, and he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, could it be that the Yan Marquis was actually killed by the Yan family's own people? !

At this moment, what Emperor Haoxing Xiaoqi cared about was not how Yan Yuguang died, but the whereabouts of the book in his hand containing the list of people who colluded with King Ji.

However, he actually guessed that the roster must have fallen into the hands of the person who killed Yan Yuguang, or more precisely, in the hands of King Ji. In this way, the game he spent many days laying out was easily broken.

King Ji, his eldest son of the emperor, is ruthless and decisive, which is indeed not inferior to him as a father. It's a pity that his eagerness for quick success and short-sightedness are largely influenced by the Yan family. Now it seems that he is indeed not qualified to become the third generation emperor of Dayu, no wonder his blood cannot be left on the pillar of the protector god!

................................................................................................................................................

At the same time, in the palace of King Ji, not far from the imperial city, King Jiwang Haoxing Akihito is having a secret conversation with a middle-aged man in a black night suit.

"How could it be that nothing was found?!Yan Hou has always liked to hide alone in the study, and his secrets should also be hidden in that study! Are you sure that you have searched thoroughly and that nothing has been missed?" Haoxing Mingren furrowed his brows, and his usual elegance and indifference on his face had long since disappeared.

The middle-aged man replied solemnly: "I did rummage through the study carefully, and I didn't even let go of the spirit cards on the table——"

"Wait! What are you talking about?" Haoxing Mingren seemed to suddenly remember something, and suddenly became excited, "Yes, it should be the spirit card of Mrs. Yan Hou! When I first saw it appear in the study, I felt a little strange, but unfortunately I didn't think much about it at the time-"

He hurriedly said to the middle-aged man, "Jin Ming, have you ever carefully checked that spirit tablet, and what mechanism is in it?"

The man named Jin Ming nodded and said, "As His Highness said, there is indeed a hidden inner grid in the base of the spirit card, but it is empty inside, and there is nothing. ”

"Nothing!" Haoxing Akihito's face changed, "Then someone has taken the lead!"

Jin Ming shook his head and said, "I have been hiding near the Xiangguo Marquis Mansion during the day, and I have not seen any visitors come to the door. As soon as it was dark, I sneaked into the house, when Yan Hou's father and son were talking in the study, I hid under the window outside the study and listened to it clearly, Yan Hou has been teaching that Yan Xingbao, asking him to change his evil and return to the right, and take on the responsibility of the son of the world.

Then Yan Hou sent Yan Xingbao out, but he himself stayed in the study. I looked through the crack in the window to see what he was doing inside, but I saw that he was only half-slumped in his chair, his eyes fixed on the door, as if waiting for someone.

It occurred to me that perhaps he was waiting for the man who had come to collect the roster, so I went into the study, took the soft pillow from his chair and used it as a backrest, and suffocated him.

It all went very smoothly, without alarming anyone, and leaving no trace of his murder. After that, I followed His Highness's instructions and searched the study thoroughly. Therefore, before I kill him, Yan Hou should not have any chance to contact outsiders. ”

"How did the things in the spirit card disappear?" Haoxing Akihito couldn't help but frown in confusion, "With Yan Hou's character, before Yan Xingbao is put back, he will definitely not hand over the only chip in his hand." And Yan Xingbao has just returned home today, and it stands to reason that Yan Hou has not had a chance to hand over the roster to others——"

"Could it be that Yan Hou has handed over the roster to Yan Xingbao?"

He couldn't have guessed that he would be killed to-day, and there was no need to rush to leave the roster to his stupid son. And even if he really didn't know the prophet, he would not have left it behind if he had a long life, lest he bring the same death to his precious son. ”

"So—could it be that he had given the roster to someone to keep for him?"

Haoxing Mingren's eyes flashed, and he suddenly remembered his seventh prince Uncle Ding, and his heart suddenly secretly exclaimed! Because he vaguely remembered that Yan Hou and Prince Ding seemed to have a good relationship back then, and not long ago, Prince Ding went to Huafu to make trouble for Yan Hou's father and son.

Could it be that the emperor made a deal with Yan Hou through Prince Ding? Or is this whole thing a game set up by the emperor and Prince Ding?!

If this is the case, the emperor must have known that he killed Yan Hou at this moment......

Suddenly, Hiroshi Akihito realized that he was so stupid! Even more stupid than his cousin Yan Xingbao!

Yan Xingbao was just lured into the trap step by step, but he jumped in on his own initiative!
