the first lady

Chapter 97

What's more, Li City prohibits outsiders from entering, and in the name of Zhao Tianshi, no outsiders are allowed to look up.

Zhang Tiesheng and others all had their daughters arrested. They planned to go to other cities to sue the officials, but they didn't want almost all the government offices to avoid them, saying that they were afraid of offending the gods and other superstitious things.

Li Cheng could not go back, so the group simply went east all the way to the capital to sue the imperial court.

After listening to Zong Zhengyi's simple description, Emperor Wu was naturally very angry.

Li City is a remote city in the west of Nanwu Kingdom. Although the city is not small, it is quite backward, and the road is inconvenient. another atmosphere.

A closed and superstitious zone!
"Prime Minister, do you know how many women have been killed?" Emperor Wu raised his eyes and asked.

Zongzheng Yi bowed and said, "My Majesty, according to Zhang Tiesheng, at least two hundred women were killed."

"Two hundred?" Emperor Wu's eyes widened, "What a Li city, what a Li city guarding the city, do you really think that I am far away from the sky in the capital? It's so lawless!"

"Father, calm down." Helian Feiyan said with concern.

"Calm down your anger? A small city in Licheng is so bewitched by a quack sorcerer, what majesty does our Nanwu Kingdom still have? If that person's reputation spreads to the capital, will even I have to abdicate to make a worthy man?" Emperor Wu The anger was aroused, and Helian Feiyan was directly used as a punching bag.

Helian Feiyan's face was also livid, and he lowered his head and dared not say a word, for fear of accidentally adding fuel to the flames.

Zongzhengyi and Zongzhengye didn't speak either. After a roar, Emperor Wu looked at Zongzhengyi, rolled his eyes and ordered: "Prime Minister, there is no major event in the court recently, so I will hand it over to you." It's up to you to handle it, make sure everything in Licheng is stable, and I will send another official to take over."

"Zunzhi!" Zong Zhengyi seemed to have guessed what Emperor Wu meant, and was never surprised.

"Yan'er, even though I'm going back to the palace to draw up the decree!" Emperor Wu came out from behind the table, his expression still grim.

Helian Feiyan was stunned for a moment before saying: "Yes, father!"

However, before Emperor Wu's teaching had even stepped out, there was already a cry from the front.

"Come here, help me... Come here, help me..."

Hearing this voice, Zongzheng Yi and Zongzheng Ye's eyes suddenly flashed with surprise, because this voice was not from their mansion, but from another place.

Inside Liuyun Garden, white silk was hung on a tree, and underneath was a young woman.

Qiao Ling'er and Qiao Yishu, who heard the shouting first, rushed to Liuyun Garden immediately. Lan Feng grabbed the screaming outsider and asked, "What happened?"

This woman is the daughter of the Mayor of Mocheng disguised as a servant: Gongsun Mi.

"In there...in there, hurry up...save people..." Gongsun Mi pointed in horror at the person hanging from the tree inside, jumping up and down, tears covering her whole face.

Qiao Linger and the others looked inside, and saw a woman hanging upright on the branch of the big tree, her legs were still struggling.

"Hurry up and save people." Qiao Ling'er quickly calmed herself down, and said to Zhui Ming next to her.

However, before chasing after life, Qiao Yilin had already thrown a piece of silver and cut it firmly on the white silk.The woman in purple immediately loosened her neck, and her body also fell down.

Like a big bird, Qiao Yilin caught Helian Fei firmly when she fell to the ground.

"Ling'er..." Zong Zhengyi and Emperor Wu had also arrived.

"What happened?" Emperor Wu asked anxiously, his appearance was as terrifying as it could be.

"It's the fifth princess, she hanged herself..." Qiao Linger's face was also pale.

Before the words fell, Emperor Wu forcibly pushed her aside, walked past her, and walked straight to Helian Feijing who was caught by Qiao Yilin.

Zong Zhengyi caught Qiao Ling'er who was pushed away by Emperor Wu, and inadvertently met Helian Feiyan's eyes.At this time, Helian Feiyan didn't show any look of panic, but looked at Zong Zhengyi with provocation and evil smile in his eyes.

Zongzheng Yi's eyes immediately turned cold, but he still looked away calmly.

"Jing'er, why are you so stupid?" Emperor Wu half-bent down, looking at Helian Feijing, whose consciousness was already blurred, with a frustrated expression on his face.

Helian Feijing's eyes were still rolling, but she had realized how angry she was, and she said in a hoarse voice: "Father, if... you can't marry... marry... the prime minister... my son... May... one... die..." The voice of the last few words was even more breathless, until she finished speaking, she also passed out.

Hearing Helian Feijing's words, Qiao Ling'er's face suddenly turned pale, and she could hardly stand up.

The fifth princess...is she forcing her to die?
Zong Zhengyi seemed to have sensed Qiao Linger's fear, and his arms around him tightened a little bit.

"Jing'er? Jing'er?" Emperor Wu shouted twice, but it's a pity that Helian Feijing has passed out and can't hear it anymore.

"Your Majesty, the princess has just passed out temporarily." Qiao Yishu gave Helian Fei a pulse at the side, and informed Emperor Wu of the result.

"Your Majesty, let the princess go to rest first!" Qiao Yilin said, looking at the woman lying in his arms, she suddenly felt pity, and couldn't help frowning.

"Hurry up?" Emperor Wu ordered in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Qiao Yilin hesitated for a while before picking up Helian Feijing, and walked to the nearest room, and this room was exactly the room of Zong Zhengyi and Qiao Linger.

Emperor Wu turned around and looked at Gongsun Mi who was still weeping in horror, and asked with a livid face, "Say, why did the fifth princess hang herself?"

Gongsun Mi was frightened by Emperor Wu's appearance, and subconsciously leaned against Zong Zhengyan who had just rushed over.

Zongzheng Yan patted Gongsun Mi and asked softly, "Don't be afraid, Mier, tell me what you see." Although he was very curious about why Gongsun Mi appeared here, now is definitely not the time to ask this question .

Zong Zhengyi and Qiao Ling'er also looked at Gongsun Mi, and Qiao Ling'er's previous discomfort also appeared in Qiao Ling'er's mind, the kind of eyes that were peeped and hated, if nothing else, it should be this The eyes of a Gongsun Mi girl.

Looking at such a group of unfriendly people around, Gongsun Mi took a breath with the help of Zongzheng Yan: "I, I saw that the fifth princess was sitting by the pond after the sixth princess and the fifth princess finished talking. Then I went to work... Later, I saw that something was wrong with the fifth princess's expression, so I followed her to have a look, and as a result, I saw the fifth princess, she was using her own belt... woo woo..."

After all, Gongsun Mi is still a child at heart, so she will naturally be afraid when she sees such a scene.

"Jing'er is really so hard to see?" Emperor Wu stared, as if he wanted to penetrate Gongsun Mi.

But Helian Feiyan walked over at this time, and changed into worried: "Father, Fifth Sister has such deep affection for the prime minister, look..."

In a word, Emperor Wu immediately turned his attention to Zong Zhengyi and Qiao Linger, and Qiao Linger's lips also turned white.Now the situation has turned again, the fifth princess hanged herself in the Zong government, no matter what, it is impossible to break away from them!
Zong Zhengyi gently shook Qiao Linger's hand, looked at Emperor Wu calmly and said, "Your Majesty, have you ever noticed anything wrong with the five princesses recently?"

"Jing'er has always been like this, what's wrong?" Emperor Wu immediately accepted the words in a cold voice, the thing he wants to do the most now is to pull Zong Zhengyi and Qiao Ling'er out of the Meridian Gate and behead them in public!

"Prime Minister, don't try to blame Fifth Sister for all your faults!" Helian Feiyan also accused.

Zongzhengyi narrowed his eyes in an unpredictable way, and said lightly: "Your Majesty, Linger's second brother is a teacher of the evil doctor Yun Zhongyue, why don't you let him diagnose the fifth princess?"

"The evil doctor Yun Zhongyue? It's ridiculous, but he is a murderous devil!" Helian Feiyan quickly took the words.

"My teacher is an evil doctor. Although my teacher has a weird personality, his medical skills are unmatched." Qiao Yishu calmly accepted Helian Feiyan's words, then looked at Emperor Wu and said, "Your Majesty, although the grassroots only learn from the family I'm just a teacher, but just now I got the pulse for the princess, and found that the princess is very poisonous at this time, if I don't treat it in time, I'm afraid it will be..."

"How could Jing'er be poisoned?" Qiao Yishu's words successfully changed Emperor Wu's face, and he was unable to think about how to deal with Zong Zhengyi and Qiao Ling'er.

Qiao Yishu bowed and said, "I would like to report to the emperor, please allow the grass people to give the princess' pulse again, and the grass people will definitely explain the princess's situation to the emperor in detail."

"You are reckless, the body of a princess..." Helian Feiyan hurriedly said.

"His Royal Highness, as long as he can heal people well, so what if he is a commoner? The most urgent thing is to see a doctor for the princess. If there is any delay, can the prince afford it?" Zong Zhengye cut off Helian Feiyan's words and added That calm and serious face made him unable to argue for a while.

"you……"

"Shut up, go and show me how Jing'er is doing!" Emperor Wu shouted, and then turned to Qiao Yishu.

Qiao Yishu bowed: "Yes, Your Majesty." Then he walked ahead and walked into the house.

Zong Zhengyi and Qiao Linger looked at each other, and followed them in.

Helian Feiyan cursed angrily, frowned tightly, but still walked into the room amidst the entanglement.The evil doctor is just a quack warlock, and Qiao Yishu will not have superb medical skills. It is absolutely impossible to discover the mystery hidden in Helian Feijing's body, absolutely not!

However, after a stick of incense, Helian Feiyan's prayer was completely shattered.

Qiao Yishu, who had finished taking the pulse by the bed, put Helian Feijing's arm under the quilt, with an unparalleled seriousness on his face.

"What's wrong with Jing'er?" Seeing Qiao Yishu's serious appearance, Emperor Wu couldn't calm down, fearing that he might say something disappointing.
