Marshal, your vest is off

Chapter 200
The Palace Clothes Department has not yet produced the clothes for the commander of the Royal Forest Army, so she will have to wear plain clothes for the past two days.

Cheng Qing cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I believe that they may have taken refuge with the eldest prince Zhao Wujue."

"Oh? Where do you start talking about this?" The emperor's expression became more solemn. He probably didn't expect that this matter actually involved his other son.

Moreover, this son has been a monk for many years.

"I haven't told you all about the assassination in the imperial palace. One of them involves this issue." Cheng Qing replied: "Those assassins who came here all know a certain kind of swordsmanship. That kind of swordsmanship The name is Superior Good and Lower Evil, and it is a Taoist sword technique that comes from Lingyang Taoist Temple. The master of Lingyang Taoist Temple, Qingfeng Zhenren, is the uncle of the eldest prince."

"Okay, I really deserve to be my good son, who has carefully planned it for so many years!" The emperor said with red eyes, the hands that clenched the armrest were shaking.

Xu was forced to go to the palace by three princes before. Although the emperor was angry, he was not as unacceptable as before.

Cheng Qing sighed, and said: "Your Majesty, even the eldest prince is now coveting the throne. Although it is a bit unreasonable, I still want to say, Your Majesty, these sons of yours are really dragons and phoenixes among people, but any ordinary It’s not even that hard to order.”

The emperor raised his eyebrows at what she said. Not to mention his anger, he actually went down a lot. He sneered without much coldness: "Qing'er, are you praising me or derogating me?"

Cheng Qing smiled and said: "Of course I am praising the emperor. Doesn't the emperor know a word? No capable person is willing to be a bystander in the prime of his youth. When a knight enters the arena, or when the number one scholar enters the court, all It’s inevitable.”

The emperor nodded and said: "I really don't know this sentence, but it makes sense. Who said this?"

Cheng Qing touched his nose and said: "Uh... I just made it up myself. If the emperor asked, it would be inspiration that told me."

"Hahaha..." The emperor was amused by her again, "You, I was fooled by you."

"Your Majesty, if you don't have any instructions, I will resign." Cheng Qing cupped his hands and said.

"Okay, you go down first." The emperor showed mercy and let her go.

"I retire." After Cheng Qing finished speaking, he withdrew.

After leaving the imperial study room, Cheng Qing looked up at the sky.

Obviously seeing the sky is big enough, but she always has a feeling of being bound.

Cheng Qing turned his head and looked in the direction of the East Palace.

Because of the chaos in the palace, the prince's funeral could only be held in the East Palace, and there was no way to hold it grandly.

The other princes also had their affairs organized in various palaces, and there was no way to put them together.

Cheng Qing couldn't help but sigh. Thinking of the scene when she met Zhao Wuyuan in the past, she felt very guilty.

She always couldn't help but feel that if she hadn't persuaded him to come back, he wouldn't have died.

Let's treat it as repaying him this time. She will definitely protect the emperor until the last moment.

……

Cheng Qing's rectification of the Imperial Guards was in progress. She gave the remaining Imperial Guards a chance to choose. If they wanted to leave, she could immediately sign their release.

If you don’t want to leave, you can stay.

Leave, this is your only chance.

Many people took advantage of this opportunity to leave the Imperial Forest Army, and the Imperial Forest Army was in urgent need of manpower.

Cheng Qing then ordered people to expand recruitment. As long as men with a clean background can run for the Royal Forest Army.

But now that the palace is experiencing crises again and again, there are indeed only a few people who are willing to take responsibility.

At this time, Qi Diaolie and other generals came forward with their soldiers.

When Cheng Qing saw them standing up, although he was helpless, he could only temporarily include them.

They were all soldiers who had experienced the battlefield. As soon as they listened to the command, their well-trained posture made the original imperial guards dumbfounded.

Especially Mo Simiao, he had never seen such a soldier who obeyed the command, moved smoothly and smoothly, and was so energetic.

This scene was so exciting to the original Imperial Guards that they felt as if they had been given a shot of blood. They were inspired to become such soldiers.They will train how Cheng Qing trains them.

The training of the Royal Forest Army is on the right track.

Zhao Wuyuan, who had been lying in the palace for three days, also woke up.

When he learned that he was the only one left alive after being forced to take poison, Zhao Wuyuan lay motionless on the bed. He didn't eat or drink, and just kept his eyes open. If he hadn't blinked his eyes occasionally, it would have made people want to explore. Take a breath to make sure he's still alive.

After Cheng Yue reported Zhao Wuyuan's situation to the emperor, he returned to the Taishi Mansion.

During the three days since Bai Xiuyuan disappeared, Cheng Qing never gave up looking for him, but Qi Diaolie and his soldiers could no longer find them.

Those Taoist priests had already left Anping City the next day before Cheng Qing sent people to look for them.

After leaving this place, roads lead in all directions.

Zhao Guo in Nuoda, it is not easy to find these people.

Therefore, we can only use the connections that Cheng Yue accumulated from saving people in his daily life to find them.

During these three days, Puyu also came to Chengqing to ask about Bai Xiuyuan.

Such a good person seemed to have disappeared from the world, and no one knew about him.

Cheng Qing became increasingly clear that the eldest prince must have taken the person away.

But why did the eldest prince take Bai Xiuyuan away?
In the main account of the military camp, Cheng Qing, who had already put on the armor that belonged to the commander of the Royal Forest Army, was sitting behind the desk and began to think about it.

If she wants to seize the throne, what does she need before she can succeed?
Wealth, soldiers, counselors.

Cheng Qing's breath was stagnant. Yes, Xiu Yuan was his military advisor and he was known for his good strategies.

With such a talent, even she had her mind set on him, let alone the eldest prince who wanted to seize the throne now.

Could it be that Xiu Yuan followed him voluntarily?

Impossible, Xiu Yuan would never do anything to betray her.

Could it be said that he had no choice but to go into danger alone when he had no enemy to fight against?

It was possible. She had found traces of fierce fighting in the cold palace, and some traces were caused by the Breaking Wind Sword Technique.

Inferring this, it should be so.

Cheng Qing frowned and looked outside the tent. Even though she had guessed this, she was even more worried.

At this point, she could only believe that with his intelligence, he would get through this incident safely.

At this moment, Mo Simiao walked in.

"Commander."

"What's the matter?"

Mo Simiao raised his hands and said respectfully: "Report to the commander, Eunuch Jiang is here and said that the emperor has a message for the commander."

Cheng Qing stood up and said, "Invite people in quickly."

"Yes."

Mo Simiao went out, and brought Eunuch Jiang in after a while.

Eunuch Jiang saluted with a smile on his face and said, "I will meet you, Commander-in-Chief."

Cheng Qing helped him and said with a smile: "Father-in-law, we are all acquaintances, so we don't need so many courtesy."
