The legitimate daughter brings disaster to the concubine! Seize the imperial power and the throne
Chapter 208 Borrowing others’ hands
When the Imperial Guards broke into the Bo family again, Old Mrs. Bo was still confused. She watched the Imperial Guards turn the Bo family's house upside down, but she didn't see Zhao Zhen.
The leader came to Old Lady Bo and asked fiercely, "Where is the Third Prince?"
"What Third Prince? Didn't the Emperor depose the Third Prince?" Old Madam Bo looked confused, but was scolded by the leader: "Stop playing crazy here. I'll ask you again, where is the Third Prince!"
Old Madam Bo still didn't know that the Queen Mother was poisoned, and she didn't know that the real and fake Third Prince had appeared again. Seeing that she denied it, the leader raised his hand and grabbed her collar: "The Queen Mother came to the Bo Mansion two hours ago, and was poisoned after returning to the palace. How dare you say you didn't know?"
"Poisoned?" Old Mrs. Bo was dumbfounded and instinctively felt that this was a setup.
The leader raised his hand and slapped the other person twice without any hesitation, causing old lady Bo to see stars and have blood at the corners of her mouth. She couldn't hold back and her body went limp and she fell to the ground.
"If the Third Prince cannot be found within three days, I will personally confiscate his property!"
After saying that, the leader turned around and left with his men.
Little did they know that there was a mansion just across the wall.
Zhao Zhen heard it all clearly. He struggled, but his body was tied up and his mouth was blocked tightly. Hearing the footsteps getting farther and farther away, Zhao Zhen felt hopeless and turned around to glare at the man sitting opposite him with his legs crossed.
The two people look exactly the same, except for their eyes and temperament.
Bu Yan raised his eyes.
The guard took the cloth out of Zhao Zhen's mouth, and he immediately said to Bu Yan: "What on earth are you going to do, you evil creature?"
Bu Yan's expression changed slightly, he flew up and slapped Zhao Zhen hard in the face, the slap was extremely loud: "You have no right to slander me!"
After being beaten, Zhao Zhen did not compromise. A bloodthirsty smile appeared on his lips: "Am I wrong? You have been unwelcome since birth. You killed Madam Xu, and now you have destroyed the Bo family. I heard that the Bo family treated you worse than a dog. You ate leftovers and were humiliated endlessly..."
Snapped!
Another punch.
Zhao Zhen groaned, blood oozing from the corners of his mouth. He smiled and raised his head to look at Bu Yan: "You shouldn't be in this world!"
Bu Yan raised Zhao Zhen's chin with his fingertips, and the two looked at each other. Bu Yan's eyes flashed with coldness. Zhao Zhen continued fearlessly: "Don't think that you have a backer just because you please Lu Jingning. There will be a war between Northern Qi and Southern Liang. If Southern Liang wins, you will be a sinner of Northern Qi. If Northern Qi wins, you have been a joke in Southern Liang for so many years!"
Even the guard beside him couldn't listen. He said coldly: "Sir, this man should be severely punished for his dirty mouth!"
"How dare you!" Zhao Zhen raised his neck and glared at the guards: "Your master is a born bastard. If it weren't for my identity, he would have been a bastard who couldn't see the light of day in Northern Qi for the rest of his life!"
Bu Yan took a deep look at Zhao Zhen. His calm eyes were like he was looking at a dead person. He said calmly, "Do you know how Mo Yunyao died?"
Zhao Zhen frowned. He hadn't heard of this name for a long time, but how could he forget the former Sixth Prince of Northern Qi.
"He fell into my hands, and I sent him to the Ministry of Punishment, where I tortured him every day and forced him to tell me your name and everything about you." Bu Yan said with a sigh, "If you hadn't flattered Queen Liu, you would have been sent to Southern Liang as a spy. It's a pity that you have endured it for so many years. You missed the target by one step."
Bu Yan's face was filled with undisguised contempt, which made Zhao Zhen's breathing quicken. Thinking back to how he was tortured by Queen Liu while growing up, he could not remain calm.
"Idiot!" Bu Yan let go of his hand and took a step back: "For the sake of certain people, I will spare your life today."
Ask someone to release Zhao Zhen.
Bu Yan turned and left.
Zhao Zhen watched the people walk away, and immediately got up and walked outside. Bu Yan glanced at Zhao Zhen's back.
In the end, he couldn't bring himself to do anything to Zhao Zhen.
Since this idiot insists on going out, just help him.
"Sir, should we hide for a while?"
Bu Yan nodded slightly: "It's time to change places."
Zhao Zhen ran to the street and ran madly towards the direction of the Imperial Guards. As soon as he showed his face, Zhao Zhen was caught by the Imperial Guards.
"I, I am the third prince Zhao Zhen. Please take me to see my father." Zhao Zhen said with a ferocious face.
The leader of the Imperial Guards heard this and said, "Don't worry, Third Prince. I will take you to the palace right away."
Zhao Zhen's body was searched thoroughly first to make sure there was nothing dangerous on him. Only then was he brought into the palace. However, he was not to meet the Emperor and the Queen Mother of Northern Qi, but to the Ministry of Punishment.
Looking at the punishment flashing with cold light on the wall, Zhao Zhen's eyelids twitched: "Why did you bring me here? Take me to see the emperor and the queen mother!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a whip hit Zhao Zhen hard in the face. Zhao Zhen gasped and couldn't help but scream.
After a few whips, Zhao Zhen's face turned pale and he looked at the leader of the Imperial Guards in confusion.
"You daring traitor, why don't you hand over the antidote to the Queen Mother!"
"What antidote?" Zhao Zhen realized something was wrong.
The leader of the Imperial Guards sneered, but his men continued to whip Zhao Zhen with the whip again and again, beating him half to death.
...
"Haven't you recruited anyone yet?" the Northern Qi Emperor asked angrily.
The young eunuch shook his head: "He was beaten to the point of having only one breath left, and he still didn't say anything. If the imperial guards report that the fight continues, I'm afraid he will lose his life."
He didn't confess even after being beaten so hard. There is only one possibility: we arrested the wrong person.
There was no doubt that the person who was arrested and tortured was Zhao Zhen.
The Northern Qi Emperor was silent for a while, then said in a deep voice: "Bring the person up."
"Yes!"
A moment later, Zhao Zhen, who was beaten half to death, was carried up and laid on the ground, covered in blood. He raised his head with all his strength and looked at the Northern Qi Emperor: "Father, it was that evil creature who kidnapped me. He impersonated me."
"Have you seen him?" The Emperor of Northern Qi frowned.
Zhao Zhen nodded: "It's next door to the Bo family."
Upon hearing this, the Emperor of Northern Qi immediately sent someone to investigate, and at the same time asked someone to invite an imperial physician to Zhao Zhen. Before the situation calmed down for a while, the Queen Mother became unwell again.
The Emperor of Northern Qi had no choice but to rush to the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother's lips were dark blue, her face was pale, and her eyes were bulging like a demon crawling out of hell.
Xu Minghuang was also standing next to them.
Xu Minghuang stood beside the bed, hesitating to step forward. Only when she saw the Emperor of Northern Qi coming did she step forward. However, the Emperor of Northern Qi did not even give her a glance and ran straight to the Queen Mother.
"Mother!" The Northern Qi Emperor was horrified and shouted for a long time. The Queen Mother turned her head and looked at the Northern Qi Emperor. She asked in a hoarse voice: "Are there any results?"
The Northern Qi Emperor shook his head.
The hope in the empress dowager's eyes faded, and her gaze turned to Xu Minghuang.
