The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple
Chapter 428: Agree on a Strategy
Chu Yunxi smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you and His Majesty are very wise and have a good plan. We are the ones who worry about nothing. As for His Majesty's poison, His Majesty is blessed by heaven. I just happened to be here. Even if I wasn't there, I believe that this poison would not have any effect on His Majesty."
Queen Mother Rong laughed at what Chu Yunxi said, "Child, you are really good at talking."
Wu Lingqi said: "I would like to thank the Queen Mother and His Majesty for their trust in the Prince of Qi's Palace."
"Well, don't be polite." Queen Mother Rong said with a smile, "You finally came to my Derong Palace, and it's so boring to keep thanking me. Come and chat with me and tell me about the interesting things you experienced along the way."
The three of them started chatting, and after a while, a palace servant came to report that the King of Qi had arrived.
Wu Lingqi immediately stood up excitedly. Qi Wang Wu Beichen came in with shackles on his hands and feet. He knelt on the ground and saluted Empress Dowager Rong, "This old minister pays respect to the Empress Dowager."
Queen Mother Rong said, "Stop being so polite. Your son, whom you've been thinking about so much, is back. Why don't you and your son catch up on the past? Someone, take off the shackles from the King of Qi."
Immediately, a guard came in and helped Wu Beichen remove the shackles from his body. Wu Beichen then held Wu Lingqi's hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Qi'er, this is just to conceal the truth. Your Majesty and the Queen Mother both believe that your father will not rebel. All this is done for King Sheng to see."
Wu Lingqi nodded quickly, "The Queen Mother just told me, father, I was really scared to death."
Wu Beichen smiled and said, "If not for this, how could we have tricked the cunning King Sheng into revealing his true colors? Qi'er, when did you return to Kala City? Did you run into that beast Wu Jiaqi?"
Wu Lingqi nodded, "I saw him. He stayed on the city wall the whole time. He might have wanted to stop me. Fortunately, Princess Dingbei was there. She changed my appearance. Wu Jiaqi didn't recognize me, so I was able to enter the city safely."
Prince Wu Beichen of Qi then noticed that there was another person sitting with Queen Mother Rong. Just now, he was so immersed in the excitement of seeing his son that he didn't even notice Chu Yunxi was there. He saw her now and hurriedly said, "Princess Dingbei, I am sorry for being so rude. I would also like to thank you for saving my son. When this is settled, I will definitely hold a banquet to entertain you well."
Chu Yunxi smiled and said, "Your Highness is too polite. Ling Qi is my friend. It is only natural for me to help my friend. Your Highness, please don't be so formal with me."
Queen Mother Rong also said, "Yes, Prince Qi, I and the emperor sent him to Dasui because we knew that the Crown Prince and Yunxi were on good terms. He really lived up to our expectations and brought Yunxi here. I will also reward him well."
The few of them chatted happily for a while before Wu Lingqi asked, "Father, what should I do next?"
The King of Qi asked, "Have you seen your mother? Is she okay?"
"I have seen her. Mother is doing well. Don't worry, father." Wu Lingqi told Wu Beichen about Princess Zhao's situation. Wu Beichen was relieved. He said, "I don't want her to suffer in prison. Although it's just a play, the prison is hot and unbearable, so I let her escape. But I haven't seen her for a while, and I've been worried about whether she has found a good hiding place. Now I'm finally relieved."
Chu Yunxi said, "Prince Sheng has already taken action against Your Majesty. I think he can't wait any longer. I'm afraid Ling Qi is their biggest worry now. They will not give up until Ling Qi is captured. Why don't we put on a show for them to the end so that they can be completely relieved?"
Wu Beichen said: "Princess, do you want Ling Qi to be arrested as well?"
"Yes, only in this way can they rest assured. Princess Qi is just a woman, they won't worry. As long as Ling Qi is caught, they will definitely make the next move. Then we can take advantage of their tricks and catch them all in one fell swoop."
"What a good way to catch them all in one fell swoop." Wu Zixu's loud laughter came from the entrance of the palace. King Qi and Wu Lingqi knelt down to salute, and Chu Yunxi also came down to salute.
Queen Mother Rong smiled and said, "Didn't the emperor just leave? Why is he back again?"
Wu Zixu smiled and said, "My son heard that the Queen Mother sent someone to bring the Emperor's uncle here, and thought that there was something to discuss, so he came to take a look, and then he heard the Princess Dingbei's brilliant plan."
Queen Mother Rong poured a pill of the medicine Chu Yunxi gave to Wu Zixu, "Take it quickly."
Wu Zixu didn't understand, but he always listened to the Queen Mother. After eating, he asked, "Mother, what is this?"
Chu Yunxi explained, "Just now I heard that Your Majesty was poisoned, so I gave the Queen Mother an antidote. Your Majesty only needs to take it for three days and the remaining poison will be cleared."
Wu Lingqi explained: "Princess Dingbei is very good at smelling poison. Some time ago, the eldest prince of Shusha was poisoned, and it was the princess who smelled it and cured it."
Wu Zixu's expression changed, and he said, "I didn't expect that Uncle Sheng couldn't hold back and poisoned me. He was so impatient."
Queen Mother Rong said, "My son, please keep quiet for now, so that we can find out the spies that Prince Sheng has planted in this palace."
Wu Zixu nodded, and then said, "I think the proposal made by Princess Dingbei just now is very good. Now the biggest worry of Prince Sheng and Wu Jiaqi should be Ling Qi. As long as Ling Qi is caught again, they will have no worries. It is definitely time to take the next step. Just be careful not to let them get suspicious. Uncle Prince Qi doesn't have to worry. As long as Ling Qi is caught, I will immediately order him to be put in the prison. Prince Sheng and his men dare not do anything reckless."
After hearing what Wu Zixu said, the King of Qi felt relieved. Chu Yunxi said, "Since I have revealed my identity and entered the palace today, they must have guessed that Ling Qi is back. However, they probably didn't expect that Ling Qi would be bold enough to enter the palace, so they must be stepping up the search in Kala City. Moreover, they should guess that I must have entered the palace at Ling Qi's request to gather information. Now the most urgent task is to send Ling Qi out of the palace. Your Majesty, the King of Dingbei is now outside the palace. He can plan this matter and will definitely allow King Sheng to catch Ling Qi without any suspicion."
"Okay, I'll arrange it right away." Wu Zixu understood what Chu Yunxi meant.
Wu Beichen pulled Wu Lingqi with concern and said, "Qi'er, you can just put up a symbolic resistance when the time comes, but don't let them hurt you."
Wu Lingqi nodded and said, "Don't worry, father. I know what to do. Just wait for me in the prison. I will also tell mother to wait for her. This time, King Sheng has set us up. We must expose his ambition and find evidence against him to relieve your majesty of all worries."
Wu Beichen patted Wu Lingqi on the shoulder and said with relief: "Qi'er, you have grown up and finally have the demeanor of a prince."
