Poisonous Peasant 'Concubine'

"Papa??"

"What happened? Whose army?"

"It seems to be going to the palace? Is there something wrong with the palace?"

"There are people from the Eastern Kingdom and the Southern Kingdom living in the Xinggong Palace. I hope nothing happens."

"Not necessarily, the Sixth Lord rejected Princess Dongguo yesterday, how annoyed they might be???"

"There won't be another war, right? This year our life is going to be a little bit easier. Can't we let the common people rest?"

Around the end of the day, a thousand-man troop came in from outside the city, holding Prince Sheng's badge, entered through the west gate, and went straight to the post house and palace. The wars continue, the taxes are getting higher every year, and the lives of the people are miserable. Finally, this year, the northern barbarians did not invade again. In the second half of last year, the emperor also issued an order to reduce taxes. In addition, the queen made some agricultural reforms. With the policy of free schooling at Hanling Academy, they finally lived a good life for two days. Seeing that Princess Sheng's pharmaceutical factory opened, they don't have to worry about getting sick in the future. Unexpectedly, the troops entered the city on a large scale. It's strange to be worried and afraid. If possible, who wouldn't want to live a stable and prosperous life?

At the same time, the members of the Bai family were also in action. After receiving the news from the palace, the head of the Bai family went to the Qian family. No one knew what they talked about, but half an hour later, the head of the Qian family personally He took people to the palace, and there was a masked man with him, because he was from the Qian family, and Yan Yi's shadow guards guarding the gate of the palace didn't care, which made Ling Jingxuan and the others miss the best opportunity. Time to fight back.

The main hall of Fuqing Palace.

"Your Majesty, it's not good. Just now there was news from Yuling Palace that Yang Meiren committed suicide."

At this point in time, Chu Yunhan had just taken a nap, and the Ninth Prince was with him. Hearing the maid's report, the Ninth Prince was taken aback for a moment, and then ran outside. Chu Yunhan chased after him with an ugly expression: "What's going on? Why did you commit suicide when you were fine?"

Yang Meiren is the former Yang Zhaoyi, the birth mother of the Ninth Prince. She has not been seen by the public for a long time after being banned for three years. For Xiao Jiu's sake, Chu Yunhan asked him to visit her quietly once a month. Every time Xiao Jiu came back, he said that his mother and concubine were very good, and he was also reflecting on his own mistakes. Why did he suddenly commit suicide?Did someone say something?

"The slaves don't know either, the people from the Jade Ling Hall passed on the news and left."

The little maid who was following him was also full of anxiety. At that time, she also wanted to ask clearly. Who knew that the other party disappeared after a daze.

"Master, let's go and have a look before we talk."

Chunxiang on the side calmly reminded him, Chu Yunhan nodded, and after a short silence, he said cautiously: "Dongxiang, ask someone to go outside the palace and send a message to Princess Sheng, asking him to send a medical boy into the palace."

He always felt that Yang Meiren's death was too strange. Although he didn't know what happened outside, but the fourth prince of Dongguo suddenly entered the palace to bid farewell, he was somewhat alert, but Yang Meiren committed suicide at this time. Seeing him, he felt that this matter was too deliberate.

"Yes"

Dongxiang was also smart, nodded and quickly ran in the opposite direction, while Chu Yunhan and his party quickly moved towards Yuling Hall.

West Inner Palace, Bai Guifei's bedroom.

"At this point in time, the Queen should have received the news, right?"

Leaning softly on the imperial concubine's couch, Bai Guifei narrowed her eyes slightly, looking lazy and indifferent, but anyone who knew him a little would know that it was just a cover-up, and he was probably deducing all the events in his mind Bar.

"Master's plan is really high. Once Yang Meiren dies, let her leave such a suicide note, the Ninth Prince must have a shadow in his heart. I am afraid that there will be rumors in the palace that it is the queen who forced Yang Meiren to death. In this way, he will not have to worry about it." Time to worry about the prince."

The old eunuch gave him a thumbs up viciously. None of them thought that Yang Meiren, who was almost a useless person, would have such a large room for use, and only the master could come up with such a plan.

"Don't get too excited, Chu Yunhan is not a fuel-efficient lamp, has anyone from the Qian family entered the palace?"

Opening her eyes a little and giving him a warning look, Concubine Bai Gui asked again in a calm voice, the reason for forcing Yang Meiren to death was to trip Chu Yunhan, if the Qian family didn't cooperate well, let Chu Yunhan calm down, His plans would go awry again.

"The news came in from outside the palace just now. The Qian family has sent people to inform Concubine De, and the slaves have also sent people to investigate. The people in Concubine De's palace have been wandering outside the imperial study. They must be confirming His Majesty's itinerary and avoiding Mr. No one can be found in the palace."

"Very good. It seems that Concubine De has also realized that only when her own son becomes emperor, her poisoning of the emperor will not implicate the entire Qian family."

Concubine Bai nodded in satisfaction. The Qian family moved so quickly, they must have started to panic. The marriage between the second child and Dongguo forced them to take action. First of all, of course, it was to overthrow the prince who was in full swing. Maybe Until now, Concubine De would never have thought that he was the one who provoked her resentment and made her poison the emperor, right?

At the same time, Prince Sheng's Mansion.

"How about it?"

Seeing Yan Shan who came back from the outside, Ling Jingxuan opened his slightly squinted eyes, Yan Chengrui's face was always ugly, Yan Shan didn't dare to hesitate, stepped forward and said respectfully: "According to the records of the Management Office of the Fine Manufacturing Department, the second prince went to The Department of Fine Manufacturing checked the progress of the weapon's manufacture, and there were people following him throughout the process, and no one noticed anything wrong with him, so he stayed in the Department of Fine Manufacturing for about half an hour before leaving."

"Has he asked about the production process of the fine steel knife?"

Yan Shengrui's face was covered with frost, and his voice was frighteningly cold. The fact that the second child went to the Fine Manufacturing Department was no longer simple.

"No, when the prince handed over the technology to the craftsmen of the Fine Manufacturing Department, he said that no one, even the emperor, asked about the casting process of fine steel knives. It is said that the second prince asked about it before, but he didn't get an answer. , What he asked yesterday was just some daily things."

"Impossible. He went to the Department of Fine Manufacturing overnight, and he still went there without our surveillance. It's impossible that he didn't have a purpose."

Ling Jingxuan said with almost certainty that in the past, he could still be said to have taken his duties seriously and responsibly, but under the circumstances yesterday, the Second Prince's Mansion must not be peaceful, why does he still have time to go to the Fine Manufacturing Department?

"What's going on over there?"

Yan Shengrui's thinking is the same as his. If it is not necessary, who would be idle in the middle of the night and go to the fine manufacturing department responsible for making weapons?

"The shadow guards led by Si have already ambushed outside the palace one step earlier, and the thousand-man army led by General Ye himself has also entered the city not long ago. They should have been ordered to surround the palace by now. So far, only people from the Eastern Kingdom have cleaned up the palace. There is nothing unusual about the movement of the luggage."

The one who answered him was Yan Yi who happened to come in from the outside. He was in charge of intelligence collection, and all the information would be transferred to him immediately.

"Stupid, if there is no abnormality, it is abnormal!"

Ling Jingxuan stood up abruptly, and it was the first time he yelled at Yan Yi so harshly, Yan Chengrui's expression became extremely ugly: "Qiliancheng is not a simple person, he is probably surrounded by experts like clouds, and the shadow guards are surrounding the palace, how could he Don't know? With Dongguo's domineering attitude, how could Qilian City not come out to check the situation?"

But his return was nothing, and the situation seemed to be worse than they had imagined.

"This subordinate is ignorant. This subordinate will immediately go to the palace to check the situation."

Hearing this, Yan Yi didn't care about pleading guilty, turned around and disappeared after speaking, Yan Shan silently stepped aside, waiting for their next order.

"Assuming all our reasoning is correct, and the fine steel knife casting technology has already fallen into the hands of Qi Liancheng, he is probably no longer in the palace, and those cleaning up in the palace are just a cover-up."

Ling Jingxuan sat down slowly, touched his chin and muttered to himself alone, Yan Chengrui beside him had already responded: "Yan Shan, notify the army outside the city, divide up and pursue, if you see anyone from the Eastern Kingdom, shoot them to death!"

Now they can't control whether they will offend Dongguo or detonate the war in advance. The casting technology of fine steel knives must not be leaked.

"Yes"

Yan Shan led the order to go, everyone in the hall looked very pale, take precautions against a thief, Yan Xiaoyu is a beast, the ambition of the wolf in the Eastern Kingdom is clearly revealed, and he dared to sell the secrets of the country to him In exchange for a dispensable marriage contract, even if he is allowed to marry the princess of the Eastern Kingdom, so what if he becomes the emperor?With his crippled mind, it is estimated that Qingguo will be annexed by Dongguo in a few years.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that Ling Jingxuan seemed to be thinking about something, Yan Shengrui asked worriedly.

"No, by the way, how is Qilian City's martial arts?"

Just send the army to chase him, I'm afraid it will be difficult to stop him, right?

"Not under me. If I am the God of War of the Qing Kingdom, then he is the God of War of the Eastern Kingdom. Since he became an adult, he has wiped out all the small countries to the east of the Eastern Kingdom. He has never lost a single defeat!"

In terms of record alone, Qilian City is undoubtedly more brilliant than him, but that is based on the premise that their opponents are all small countries, and the national power of the Eastern Kingdom is very strong. I'll know it later.

"Qin Muyan, gather the Thunder Team and bring all the equipment."

Ling Jingxuan stood up abruptly, and Qin Muyan, who took turns standing outside to guard them every day, replied respectfully: "Yes!"

After finishing speaking, the person also disappeared, Yan Shengrui got up and looked at him: "Are you going to chase after him yourself?"

The others also looked at him worriedly, he has no martial arts at all, what if something happens to him?

"That's your business. I'm going to pick up the child."

Glancing at him lightly, Ling Jingxuan turned around and entered the inner courtyard. He always felt that Qilian City was not such a simple person. Behind the second prince was a sinister and cunning Concubine Bai. The children were studying outside the city. There are government servants sent by the Jingzhao Mansion to patrol, but the number of times is limited after all. Although there are Shadow Guards and Thunder Team, the children are also smart. No matter whether they have their ideas on the children, he will try his best to do it. Until everything is safe, as for other things, Sheng Rui will take care of them, he just needs to do everything in his power to protect his little home.

"Xiaohua, you go out of the city with this prince, Chengfu, Prince Cheng's mansion will be handed over to you, and occasionally you should take some responsibility, this matter is of great importance, and it will do all harm to my royal family but not any benefit."

Looking back at his daughter-in-law, Yan Shengrui said as he walked, he stopped when he passed King Fujun. None of the royal family is a real idiot. There is nothing wrong with Yan Shengfu's obsession with drama, but it doesn't mean he is really stupid. His ability to disguise himself with such a perfect package is definitely not low.

"Is it the responsibility?"

Yan Chengfu lowered his eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up bitterly. He is the youngest in his family, and he has been extremely smart since he was a child. When he was very young, the first emperor specially named him the king of the county because of a piece of calligraphy, but because of this, he attracted brothers. Since then, he has never shown his edge again, and even directly rejected the expectations of his father and king when he became an adult. He just blindly buried himself in the drama, never thinking of running away. He could not escape his responsibility after all. Character.

"Let's put it down, I guarantee that before you come back, Prince Cheng's mansion will be absolutely safe!"

Standing up slowly, Yan Shengfu swept away his usual decadence, looked at Yan Shengrui and said seriously, the safety of Prince Cheng's mansion is directly related to the safety of Yan's royal family, he is still clear about this.

"Well, Jinghan and you guys also stay in Prince Sheng's Mansion for the time being. By the way, have someone call Zhao Dalong and Shanzi back. Before we come back, no matter what happens outside, you don't want to go out."

Yan Shengrui nodded, looked at Ling Jinghan and the others again, and told him intuitively that this time the incident would be a big mess, and the capital would change again. For their safety, it was better to stay in the palace.

"Well, brother Rui, you don't have to worry, we know how to take care of ourselves, so you should be careful."

Ling Jinghan is also smart, so he naturally knows their concerns. As long as they protect themselves, they are helping them. During the speech, Ling Jingxuan has already changed his clothes and came out. Even more slender, Sikong Jue stepped forward and frowned, "I'll go with you."

Since it's picking up the child, it doesn't make sense to keep him at home, right?

"Um"

Knowing that he also knows martial arts, Ling Jingxuan did not refuse, nodded and walked towards Concubine Yun, hugged Xiaotuanzi from her hand and kissed him: "Daddy is going to pick up elder brother and the others, do you want to listen obediently?"

"Ah."

Xiaotuanzi recognized his father, drooling and screaming, his white and tender face was smiling brightly, Ling Jingxuan finally showed a smile, and couldn't help but kiss him before handing him to Concubine Yun: "Mother, concubine, I have to trouble you to take care of the child again, if there is anything in the palace, you can let Yan Yi and the others inform me, I always feel that the palace will definitely not be peaceful."

For some reason, he had an ominous premonition in his heart, as if he was about to face some catastrophe of life and death.

"Well, it's not peaceful outside, you should be careful yourself, and come back quickly after picking up the children. Just leave those things outside to Lao Jiu, the children need you."

As if realizing something, Concubine Yun couldn't help exhorting, she knew that Jingxuan was good at medicine and poison, but he didn't know martial arts after all. It must collapse first, and then it will be the real catastrophe.

"Hehe... I'm just going to pick up the children, not to go to the battlefield, mother and concubine don't have to worry, I'll be back in two hours at most"

Throwing him a reassuring smile, Ling Jingxuan turned around and nodded to Yan Shengrui, a group of people followed their door, Zhu Guanshi had already prepared the fast horse cleverly, Yan Shengrui and Yan Xiaohua got on the horse at the same time, and the already assembled Thunder team also Abandoning their usual 'open carriage', they rode mightily on horseback one by one, and at the same time, quite a few shadow guards also approached.

"set off!"

"Yes!"

When Yan Shengrui gave an order, the sound of horseshoes suddenly sounded, and a group of people led by Yan Shengrui quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.
