Chapter 581 House thief! (2)
"Back to the Marquis, my subordinate Ji Tong was an orphan during the flood in Zezhou. At the beginning, General Xinshan picked up his subordinate and sent him to practice. That's why his subordinate is what he is today. Apart from being loyal to His Majesty, his subordinate also listens to you." General's words." As the guard said, he knelt down to Wei Linghao, "I also ask Lord Hou to find a way to save the general's life!"

Wei Linghao slowly sat beside Qianye's bed, looked at Ji Tong who was kneeling in front of him, nodded and said, "You are commendable for your loyalty, but I don't know if you can be a great leader."

"This subordinate, but according to Lord Hou's order, I will never refuse to die." Ji Tong said hurriedly.

"Well, now Northern Mongolia and Uyghur have joined forces to plot against us. We are passive everywhere. Although there are border lions blocking them, we can't leave the lives of Uighur King and Northern Mongolian King on the border of our Universiade. It's really hard to get out."

Ji Tong kowtowed and said: "Then this subordinate will lead someone to track down these two thieves, even if they sacrifice their lives, they must take their heads back!"

Wei Linghao waved his hands and said, "I'm afraid you can't accomplish anything with your own efforts. You have your own ideas about this matter, and you just need to cooperate with all your strength."

"Yes." Ji Tong bowed.

Wei Linghao didn't say anything more, raised his hand and took out a delicate sachet from his bosom, tore apart the silk thread, took out a brown pearl-sized pill from it, turned around and pinched Qianye's mouth open, and put the The pill was put into his mouth, and then Qianye's chin was dragged, and the pill was swallowed.

"Master Hou?" Ji Tong looked at this, not knowing what was going on for a moment.

"This is the life-saving pill that my mother gave me, and there is only one." Wei Linghao turned to look at Ji Tong and said, "It takes an hour for this pill to take effect, so it will take less than a quarter of an hour for General Qianye to take effect." He will die, have no breath or pulse, no different from a dead person, and after an hour of the drug effect, he will wake up, no different from ordinary people. Only you know about this! I suspect that there are traitors around the emperor, so this matter You can't spread it out. When I go out later, I will tell the people outside that General Qianye died of poison, and you will take his body out. I will give you an order, and you and General Qianye will leave the palace and go to Yiyun immediately. The town called the [-] elite soldiers that I put there, and then divided into two teams to go to the two gates behind General Shao in front of the two armies to ambush, and must intercept and kill the two Uyghur kings of Northern Mongolia who fled back."

Hearing these words, Ji Tong was both surprised and happy, and was speechless for a while.

Wei Linghao sighed softly: "Although this life-saving pill is effective, it is only effective for three days. You must bring General Qianye back within three days. If your mother arrives at that time, General Qianye or It is possible to save my life, if... if something goes wrong, there is nothing I can do to help."

"This subordinate would like to thank Lord Hou for your kindness on behalf of the general! This subordinate will definitely handle this errand well, please rest assured, Lord Hou." Ji Tong bowed and knelt down again.

"Get up." Wei Linghao felt Qianye's pulse again, and Fang got up and walked slowly outside the door.

Seeing this, several dragon guards guarding the door clasped their hands and asked, "Master Hou?"

"Go and see off the general." Wei Linghao shook his head helplessly, with a sad expression on his face.

Several Longwei couldn't bear it for a while and rushed into the house.Inside, Ji Tong was already kneeling in front of Qianye's bed and weeping.

The news that General Qianye, who was the most powerful in the imperial court, was poisoned and died spread throughout the entire Chengzhou Palace as if he had grown wings.

King Heng hurried in, grabbed Wu Miao's arm, and asked anxiously, "Qianye really..."

"Hush!" Wu Miao quickly raised her hand and made a silent movement, glanced at the emperor who was sleeping on the bed and did not move, Fang quickly pulled King Heng out of the bedroom to the outside room, his eyes were reddened for a moment, and sighed Said: "It's true. Just now, the old slave saw them wrapping the general's body and going out. Fortunately, His Majesty fell asleep a long time ago. If His Majesty knew about this, I don't know what would happen."

"This Qianye has been with His Majesty for almost 20 years! Your Majesty has shown great concern for him and Qianxun, and he must not be able to bear the news. Forget it, you are here to take good care of the Emperor, and this king will also send him off." Heng Wang said sadly.

"Yes, the slave has no time to serve the emperor, the lord is benevolent, and I will speak for the slave." Wu Miao said, wiping tears again.

"You old bastard, it's fine if you act like this in front of this king. If the emperor wakes up and sees you like this, he will definitely ask. You can restrain yourself!" King Heng urged.

"I remember it." Wu Miao nodded in response.

King Heng waved his hand and told Wu Miao to go back, while he hurriedly went to the side courtyard to see Qianye.

At this time, Qianye had already been carried aside by Ji Tong, wiped his body, and put on his general uniform. When King Heng came, everyone was giving him the red gold helmet bestowed by the emperor.

"Qianye..." King Heng rushed forward after entering the door, and grabbed Qianye's hand.

"My lord." Several guards saluted one after another, and Ji Tong choked up and said: "Please take care of your lord. We moved the general here because we were afraid of alarming the emperor, and the emperor must not make any mistakes at this time!"

A guard next to him choked up and said, "Yes, my lord, the emperor's poison is the same as the general's...but it's the same!"

"Shut up!" Ji Tong snapped, "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and you have the protection of God!"

"Yes, the subordinate made a slip of the tongue." The guard bowed his head hurriedly.

"Okay, okay!" King Heng removed his hand from Qianye's wrist, raised his hand, rubbed his eyes, and sighed, "It's good for you to clean up for the general. The war is so tight that there is no way to send him back to Beijing. But it’s not suitable to park here, it’s better to send it out for burial first.”

Ji Tong bowed and said: "What the prince said is true. These are all arranged by subordinates. The prince has a valuable status, so it is not suitable to stay here for a long time."

"Okay, I'll go to His Majesty to have a look first, so you can worry about it here." King Heng nodded and left in a hurry.

In the dark, in the shadows that no one noticed, Wei Linghao stared coldly at King Heng's back, knowing that he had disappeared into the late autumn night.

King Heng didn't go to see the emperor again, but hurried back to the courtyard where he lived, and after entering the door, he asked the guards to close the door, and called a few confidants to go in and give detailed instructions.

A quarter of an hour later, Heng Wang's two confidants looked at Qianxing Palace separately, one headed north and the other east.

Wei Linghao personally watched the person going north, and sent his lieutenant to watch the one going east.

At five o'clock, Wei Linghao and one of his personal guards returned to the palace with Princess Uighur and the confidants sent out by King Heng, and the first thing they said was: "Is Ling Shu back?"

"Go back to Lord Hou, Captain Ling hasn't come back yet." The guard guarding the gate replied with a bow.

Wei Linghao frowned tightly: "Go and meet him, he has gone to the east."

"Yes." The guard bowed and agreed, and left in a hurry.
