Emperor Kangxi sent me to marry
Chapter 359 Extra Murder
The bottle of poison seemed even more deadly in the moonlight.
The prince held it tightly in his hand to prevent the seventh prince from seeing it. He didn't dare put the small bottle into any of his pockets. What if it's lost? The rest of his life, everyone he cares about, his wife, children, grandfather, including himself, their fragile destiny is all tied to this little bottle.
Five hundred right-guard infantry troops, surrounded by two princes on horseback, marched neatly towards the palace of naturalization.
In the deep night, the outline of the city was blurred, leaving only a ghostly and huge black shadow lying in the distance. The reflective glass in the palace during the day is its greedy and alert eyes.
When he met the guards led by Longkodo, the prince trembled. The bottle almost slipped from my sweaty palms.
The number of burning torches gradually increased, and in the jumping firelight, the prince saw Longkodo coming on horseback.
Longkodo rode his horse and ran in front of the two princes, but did not dismount. He only raised his hand in vain as a sign of greeting. This arrogant behavior made the seventh elder brother, who was always gentle and generous, start to get angry.
"Uncle, it's such a grand ceremony."
Longkodo waved his riding crop triumphantly, commanding his men to surround the two princes.
"I will only act according to the emperor's instructions. You two, please dismount, I will not take action in any big or small way."
The Seventh Prince quickly weighed it in his mind, what would be the result if he let his men rush directly into the palace at this time.
After careful consideration, he did not resist, dismounted as Longkodo requested, and voluntarily handed over the musket on his waist and the dagger in his boots.
The prince hesitated for a moment, then followed suit and made the same move.
Longkoduo narrowed his eyes, turned over and dismounted. He drove away several of his men who were about to search the two princes.
"Whatever you say, I am also a master. If you characters can move, it will be chaos. I will do it."
Brother Seventh glanced sideways at him and ignored him. Longkodo touched him hastily twice and passed. What he really wanted to search for was the prince.
Longkodo started searching from his boots, even inside his socks. The prince was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and couldn't think of anywhere else to hide the bottle containing the poison. When Longkodo searched the purse at his waist, he could see that the prince had something in his hand, but he deliberately let it go.
After the body search was completed, the palace door slowly opened inward after Longkoduo gave an order. The prince couldn't figure out Longkodo's intention, so he could only bite the bullet and follow the team forward. There is no need to ride the horse. His final dignity as a prince is simply not to be tied up.
Longkodo followed the prince closely and said nothing.
Walking around Kangxi's dormitory, Longkoduo sent people to go to the eunuch to inquire. After a while, a young eunuch came from the direction of the bedroom and stood respectfully by the roadside to deliver Kangxi's oral instructions.
"The emperor has decreed that Lord Qi should go and have a rest. I only see the second elder brother."
The prince closed his eyes in despair.
In Khan Amma's mouth, he was just the second elder brother, not the prince.
Longkoduo glanced at the seventh elder brother, and the seventh elder brother left angrily without saying anything else. Only then did Longkodo pinch the prince's arm, as if he was seriously escorting the prisoner, but also as close and casual as an uncle to his nephew. It looks nondescript.
"Second Master, don't be afraid. The Emperor has loved you for so many years."
After saying that, he tightened his grip on the prince's right hand holding the poison and refused to let go.
Using this strange gesture, Longko held the prince hostage all the way to a small room where the guards usually used to change clothes.
The space used by men was not very organized, it was narrow, there were no lights, and the smell was unpleasant. The prince almost vomited. In contrast, Longkodo seemed more casual, sitting carelessly on a bench. More than one Eight Banners disciple had put his feet on it and adjusted his boots, including Longkodo himself.
"Your Highness, please rest assured. I am determined to assist you, and so is my Ama. The Tong family has a fifth princess as a daughter-in-law, and news from all sources is faster than other families. I already know that the fourth princess wants to help you. Did she give this to you?"
Longkodo was playing with the jade bottle in his hand in the dark, and his finger collided with it, making several jingles. The prince stretched out his hand to see where the poison was. Longkodo stole it long ago when he was distracted when he entered the house.
"It's useless for you to ask for this. I am the only one in this world who can make Khan Ama drink this."
Longkoduo played with the small jade bottle and did not answer the prince's words. After a long silence, Longkodo stood up and called two of his men in to serve as temporary guards.
The bottle containing the poison was finally handed over to Kangxi by Longkodo.
"I asked what is in this. The second elder brother did not say anything. Your Majesty, do you want me to take this and ask the imperial doctor who is coming with me?"
Kangxi looked stern, sitting cross-legged on the bed, rubbing the small bottle with his fingertips, and did not put too much energy into it.
It's nothing more than some powerful poison.
"I want to make a decree to deprive the fourth princess of her title and salary, and take her to the clan mansion to await trial. However, the Queen Mother stops her, and she cannot do so in the palace. You go and find Gao Shiqi. Let him draw up the decree and bring it to Guihua. Go to the city and order Masika to find a suitable person and send him to the capital. After finishing these things, it will not be too late to interrogate the second elder brother."
Longkodo took the order, bowed his head and walked backwards out of the hall. Before even taking one foot out of the dormitory, he understood.
As a cousin of the Nine-Fifth Emperor, he has yet to gain the emperor's trust from a Han official.
The most important thing right now is, are the titles and titles just illusory?
Testing Masika's loyalty and whether he should be ordered to bring troops to escort him was the emperor's greatest concern.
Such an important task was given to Gao Shiqi by the emperor.
Longkodo held back his anger and casually sent someone to find Gao Shiqi, but he went to the hut where the prince was detained.
The plan came from his father Tong Guoshu. When Longkodo heard it for the first time, he had already made up his mind not to do what he said.
So what if it was successfully completed in the end, all the benefits would still go to my nephew Shun Anyan.
Who is he?
A boy whose hair hasn't even grown yet.
Apart from marrying the fifth princess, does he still have any ability to speak out?
Thinking of the fifth princess, Longkodo slowed down.
Princess……
When he said these two words, he couldn't control himself and thought of the fourth princess who was naked that night.
It's so delicate and beautiful that people dare not look directly at it. If the emperor had his way, the four princesses would soon be held accountable and then wither and wither in the endless nights of confinement.
Pity.
I just realized that she is a rare beauty.
Longkodo eventually became unable to move.
He wanted to go forward, see the prince, threaten him, torture him, and get all the information he was curious about. But he was defeated by desire. And this desire, in the palace, can only be resolved by time.
Fortunately, it was night and no one could see anyone clearly.
Gao Shiqi had long expected that Kangxi would send someone to look for him, so he came very quickly. Longkodo and he met each other in the yard, each showed a half-hearted smile, and then passed each other.
After regaining his calm, Longkodo raised his eyes and looked at the deep starry sky above his head.
It is said that when the world undergoes great changes, the stars will also provide guidance.
However, he couldn't see any difference between those glowing dots and the usual ones.
"Second brother, please come out and speak."
The frustrated little door opened, and after a while, the prince stepped out, holding on to the door frame. Longkodo still used the same nondescript posture as before, and went over to hold his arm to prevent the fat duck near his mouth from struggling desperately and flying away.
"Don't be afraid, Your Highness. As long as His Highness trusts me, you will still be the crown prince of the Qing Dynasty. Let's go this way."
Longkodo didn't do anything strange, and he didn't even try to hide the prince, as that would be too conspicuous. The two of them just strolled along the corridor at the edge of the yard, neither fast nor slow. The prince thought that Longkodo was sent by Uncle Tong, and he was trying to make a fuss here just to gain more benefits.
"Uncle, if you have something to say, there's no harm in speaking up."
"There's so much to say... where do I start?"
Longkodo himself didn't notice that his hand was quite rude on the prince's arm.
"Your Highness, as long as you are cruel, I will sacrifice my life to help."
"heartless?"
"After the matter is completed, I want the Fourth Princess to be my consort. Is Your Highness so cruel?"
The prince broke out in a cold sweat and stammered, unable to answer. Longkodo despised his courage in his heart, and almost hummed to express his dissatisfaction.
"I know. I already have a wife. She has already married Dunduobu and gave birth to Gege. So what are you afraid of? Dunduobu, I won't let him live too long; by then, I will definitely take care of him. The place in the main room will be freed up for her. I am determined to be my consort."
Of course, the happiness is guaranteed.
The prince was obviously unwilling to accept this high asking price, so he took a step back tactfully and appropriately.
"If you only want to be the consort and there is a princess waiting to be married in the palace, why do you have to have her?"
"Oh. That's different. Your Highness, for many years, I have never believed that Your Highness can successfully ascend the throne. Although your words may not sound good, please listen to your Highness."
Longkodo suddenly let go of the prince's hand and walked forward by himself. But the prince did not walk away. After a brief pause, he jogged a few steps and walked over to Longkodo to ask questions.
"Why?"
"Your Highness, you have too much, and you don't have to work hard. Therefore, you don't have much ambition, and you don't like to kill everyone. These two things are absolutely indispensable as an emperor."
The prince was speechless for a long time because he told him something that was on his mind. Longkodo was quite satisfied with his reaction. Being able to stand up high and really scold the princes and princesses as an elder has been one of his fantasies that he has been obsessed with for many years.
"The Fourth Princess helped His Highness to ascend to the throne. How could she not want to be rewarded after the work was accomplished? She had Dun Dobu in charge of the army to help her. If His Highness was slightly unwilling to fulfill her wish, it would not be difficult to initiate palace changes and change the emperor. Your Highness, after using her, you must get rid of her immediately so that you can truly hold the throne in your hands. When I said that I would like to honor the fourth princess, I meant that I would guard her at all times."
The prince lowered his head and pondered, weighing the pros and cons. Longkodo was so proud that he didn't notice that in the shade of a tree not far away, Gao Shiqi, who had finished writing the edict, was hiding there and listened to what he and the prince said without missing a word.
In his hand, he still held an imperial edict that could plunge the fourth princess into the abyss and never be able to recover.
The door of the dormitory opened, Gao Shiqi held his breath and hid deeper in the shadows.
It turned out that the young eunuch came out and invited the prince and Longko to come into the temple to see the saint. Gao Shiqi watched the two of them sharpening their guns before the battle. After muttering a few words under his breath, Gao Shiqi walked into the hall one after another without noticing his presence at all.
In the courtyard, there was no sound of return.
Gao Shiqi didn't move at all. He wanted to think again.
At Longkodo's age, it is not easy for him to say what he just said.
It's true that the prince's character is not good enough for the throne. Although the fourth princess is better than him, she is still not as good as the last one.
Although the cruelty of killing can be done by Er Dunduobu. But father, son, brother and sister can turn against each other, but husband and wife can't?
Asking for help is ultimately not as cheap as doing it yourself.
Gao Shiqi closed his eyes and deduced the future with the addition of Longkodo.
Next, he would burn Kangxi's decree and go to Masika with only the token to hold him back and prevent him from escorting him.
With the support of Longkodo, the prince will surely be able to control the palace and issue orders with the support of the queen mother.
From here on, things will be different than promised.
Based on the prince's appearance just now, he will listen to Longkodo's instigation and attack the fourth princess.
How will the fourth princess respond?
Gao Shiqi felt a little excited for no reason. He immediately decided not to inform the fourth princess of his discovery.
As long as she can pass this level, what other problems will make the fourth princess frown from now on?
Gao Shiqi walked away quickly, disappearing into the night.
