Daughter's Poisoned Wife

Chapter 616 The Grand Finale (3)
The outside of the palace was turned upside down that night, but the inside of the palace was peaceful.Under Xiao Ze's arrangement, the rebellious thieves had no chance to get close to the palace, so naturally there was no need to talk about capturing the palace and pulling the emperor down, and helping their master, the fourth prince Xiao Jing, ascend the throne.

It’s just that although the situation in the palace is fairly peaceful, people’s hearts are still a little panicked. After all, chaos broke out outside the palace that night, and many palaces of princes and princes were on fire. Seeing the night sky reddened by fire from time to time.So everyone didn't know what the situation outside the palace was like, and which side had the upper hand.Therefore, as soon as Xiao Ze and Wu Jingming entered the palace, they attracted the attention of all the people in the palace. Everyone wanted to go forward and ask what was going on outside, but no one had the guts to be the first to come out, so they could only watch helplessly. The two of them walked into the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"Grandson Xiao Ze, minister Wu Jingming asks the queen mother to be well..." Xiao Ze and Wu Jingming knelt down to pay their respects at the same time. The queen mother was anxious and didn't care about etiquette, so she just pulled Xiao Ze up and asked hurriedly: "Ze Son, what's the situation outside, the troubles have not stopped this night, where is your father?"

Xiao Ze smiled and supported the Empress Dowager's arm, and said calmly: "Don't worry, Grandmother, everything outside is under our control. My father was assassinated and injured on the way to Wucheng Bingmasi, so Can’t go into the palace to report to the emperor’s grandmother and emperor’s uncle, the grandson has come instead of the father.”

When the Queen Mother heard that her youngest son was injured and could not enter the palace, her face turned pale. She grabbed Xiao Ze's hand and shouted tremblingly: "Ze'er, how is your father's injury? He must be seriously injured, Jiu'er , Ai family... Ai family will come out of the palace to see you..." After all, the queen mother loves her youngest son the most. Now the Empress Dowager's heart is completely confused, and there is only one thought in her mind, so hurry to see her youngest son, and don't think about anything else.

Xiao Ze quickly added: "Grandmother, don't worry, the father has been shot in the back, and the grandson has already invited the best doctor to detoxify the father and treat the injury. Now the father is not in danger of life at all, but his body is weak and needs to be tested. Well born and raised, the father originally wanted to enter the palace to restore the order, but the grandson was really worried, so he forced the father to return to the mansion to recuperate, and the grandson came to the palace on his own initiative."

The Empress Dowager heard that her youngest son's life was safe, so she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, she was in the mood to look at Xiao Ze and Wu Jingming carefully, and saw that although they were young, they were very energetic, and their eyes were full of uncontrollable excitement. , the queen mother let out a long breath, and asked slowly: "Ze'er, did you catch all the criminals last night?"

Xiao Ze nodded and said: "Fortunately, the imperial grandmother and grandson raided the Kejun palace and caught the person who made the poison. It's just that the man's teeth were hard, and the grandson thought that the people from the Punishment Department would have the best way to deal with it." If you don’t want to be a kind of person, you brought him into the palace, so you can force him to give the antidote earlier to cure the poison that the emperor’s uncle has been poisoned by.”

The queen mother was overjoyed when she heard this, and immediately shouted: "Li Quan, quickly send the traitor to the Punishment Department, and you can watch there to get the results." Li Quanyi was very happy when he heard that it was possible to get the antidote. Tears welled up, and he knelt down in front of the dragon bed with a plop, and said to the unconscious emperor lying on the bed: "Your Majesty, this old servant will go to interrogate that dog thief and force him to hand over the antidote." Li Quanfei also ran out, and Wu Jingming quickly followed him to send Xu Lihen to the Punishment Department, and also learned the methods of the Punishment Department.

After Wu Jingming and Li Quan left, Xiao Ze looked at the unconscious present and asked the Empress Dowager, "Grandmother, has Uncle Huang been asleep?"

The queen mother shook her head and said, "It's not like I fell asleep all the time, I would wake up once in a while, Mo Yue could wake up for a quarter of an hour, and then fell asleep again. Ze'er, you also stayed up all night, go to bed for a while."

Xiao Ze shook his head and said: "Grandson is not tired, please go and rest for a while, Grandmother, grandson is guarding Uncle Huang."

The queen mother shook her head and sighed lowly: "No, Ze'er, the imperial grandmother must stay here and not leave for a moment." While speaking, Jin's eyelids moved a few times, and he slowly opened his eyes.

"Uncle Huang, you're awake!" Xiao Ze cried out in surprise. When he saw Xiao Ze, there was a flash of surprise in his eyes, and he asked with difficulty: "Ze'er, why are you here? Where is your father? Not here? What's the situation outside?"

Xiao Ze hastened to briefly explain the outside affairs, and now he is angry, surprised and happy. The surprised is that his younger brother has been shot in the dark, the angry is that his own son has turned against him, and the happy is that the most important nephew is a Those who are capable can quell a conspiracy and chaos in just one night.When he heard that the person who made the poison had been caught, he was so surprised that he almost passed out. He originally thought that there was no hope for him, but he never thought that after only one night, he would get such a big surprise.

"Uncle Huang, the person who made the poison is named Xu Lihen..." Xiao Ze saw that his spirit was much better now, so he deliberately mentioned Xu Lihen.

Now when he heard the words "Xu Lihen", his expression suddenly changed.He yelled in surprise: "Xu Li...".Xiao Ze's heart tightened, seeing his uncle's expression, it seemed that the surname Xu Li was a taboo.

The Queen Mother didn't pay attention to it at first, but now she exclaimed, and her face changed after hearing it.The mother and son looked at each other, there was something inexplicable in their eyes, it seemed to be fear, and it seemed to be guilty, but more panic.

"Ze'er, hurry up...send someone to the Punishment Division, don't interrogate Xu Lihen, kill him immediately, burn him... file his bones and throw up ashes..." Jin Jin shouted in an extremely urgent tone.

The Empress Dowager was a little hesitant and called out in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, the antidote..."

"No, don't need an antidote, Ze'er, go quickly..." Jin Jin roared with all his strength, and then pouted forward straight.

The Empress Dowager also pouted now, tears fell like raindrops from her eyes, she cried, "Ze'er, go quickly..." Xiao Ze had no choice but to rush out to the Department of Punishment to execute Xu Lihen.

In the Punishment Department, Xu Lihen was already very angry. No matter how the people in the Punishment Department tortured him, Xu Lihen never said a word, just looked at the person who tortured him coldly, with disdain in his eyes The torturer almost wants to go crazy.Wu Jingming originally wanted to learn the methods of interrogation in the Department of Punishment.But he only watched it for less than a quarter of an hour and couldn't stand it anymore. It turned out to be nothing more than inhumane torture. He walked out of the torture room frowning, and just after taking a breath of cold air, he saw Xiao Ze running away in a hurry. Come in.
