Reborn as the first poisonous concubine

Chapter 856 Failure
Imperial Capital, deep winter.

Xiao Heng, who was staying in Concubine Han's bedroom, felt a little drowsy surrounded by the tranquilizing incense.

It was not night yet, but the sky had already darkened. Black clouds shrouded the entire imperial capital, and a storm was about to begin.

Looking at the dark sky, Han Xiang'er was a little uneasy. She looked at Xiao Heng who was dozing off with his eyes closed, and was about to get up when the eunuch in the bedroom came over and reported respectfully: "Your Majesty, my lord servant said that I need to see you urgently. emperor!"

Concubine Han Guifei frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice almost without hesitation: "The emperor is sleeping peacefully, you go and report to the servant, and let him not disturb the emperor's rest. When the emperor wakes up, it will not be too late to come to see you again!"

"But the servant said that he was very urgent to report to the emperor, and he seemed unwilling to leave..." the little eunuch said cautiously, not only afraid that he would offend Concubine Han, but also worried that he would offend the emperor by mistake. angry!
"What's the important thing at this time?" Han Xiang'er was still thinking about it secretly, Xiao Heng who was lying on the soft couch slowly opened his eyes: "Let him in!"

"Yes—" the little eunuch heard the words, and hurriedly took the order to leave, and Han Xiang'er also walked up to Xiao Heng, and brought a cup of hot tea to Xiao Heng: "Your Majesty, are you awake?"

"I'm actually not completely asleep..." Xiao Heng sighed, looked at the sky outside, and said quietly, "How can I sleep well if I have something on my mind?"

Han Xianger glanced at his preoccupied appearance, and fell silent.

Why is she not worried?Although she had already sent someone to tell the King of Luoyang quickly that the emperor agreed to the prime minister's sending someone to get rid of him, but she was far away in the imperial capital, and she never knew whether the King of Luoyang was injured or not!
Attendant Deng Xian stumbled into the bedroom, and when he saw Xiao Heng, he lost his etiquette for a moment because of his impatience, and said, "Your Majesty, something is not right..."

"What's the matter, making such a fuss?" Xiao Heng frowned slightly, a little displeased with the servant Deng Xian's gaffe.

"It's the King of Luoyang..." Deng Xian just said these words, and the expressions of Xiao Heng and Han Xiang'er both changed.

"Quickly, how about the King of Luoyang?" Xiao Jingyao asked in a deep voice, with a stern look on his face, while Han Xianger, who was at the side, also clenched his fists secretly, with a heart raised in his throat.

"The assassins sent by the Prime Minister failed in their mission... The King of Luoyang captured all the assassins, and on the second day after capturing the assassins, he was executed in Luoyang City. After the people of Luoyang knew about this, they were all excited! "

"What did you say? The assassin mission failed?" Xiao Heng was furious, with a cold light in his eyes, and asked sharply, "How did you fail?"

"Back to the emperor, I don't know why I failed..." Attendant Deng Xian shook his head, with a mournful face: "If the king of Luoyang and the prefect of Luoyang hadn't supervised and killed the assassin in front of the people, the minister and the prime minister wouldn't even have done it." I know the news of the failure! I heard that the assassin was directly captured by the elite soldiers of the King of Luoyang, Your Majesty, it seems that the King of Luoyang has already been on guard against you, Your Majesty!"

Xiao Heng smashed the teacup in his hand, and stood up with an angry face: "You have let me down too much. If he hadn't made a fool of himself, how could he have just happened to send elite soldiers to catch the assassin?"

"Your Majesty, forgive me!" Attendant Deng Xian saw the emperor's angry expression for the first time, and was so frightened that he fell to his knees and kowtowed repeatedly to apologize.
