Rebirth of the Splendid Phoenix

Chapter 166 His Majesty has passed away

"Can you really control poisonous insects and snakes?"

Xie Jinhua has been thinking about this question since just now.

At this moment, I couldn't help but ask.

Hearing Xie Jinhua's question, Qin Zheng chuckled, took out a pill from his bosom, pinched it with his fingers, and the white powder scattered out.

The next moment, Xie Jinhua saw a black scorpion crawling out of the sand in front of him.

The scorpion had a ferocious face and crawled towards Qin Zheng, but when it was about to crawl to the front, it seemed to have lost its direction, spinning around in place, and let out an irritable roar.

In addition to the scorpion, there are other snakes, insects, rats and ants that continue to appear, gathering from all directions.

Even a woman like Xie Jinhua, who is not very afraid of snakes, insects, rats and ants, couldn't help feeling a little creepy when she saw this scene and the many poisonous things coming from all directions.

She couldn't help but grabbed Qin Zheng's arm tightly, but didn't make a sound, just kept staring at the poisonous things not far away on the ground.

Qin Zheng turned his head and saw Xie Jinhua's pale complexion.

His hand was on hers, with a soothing taste.

"The pill can attract poison?"

Xie Jinhua spoke softly.

After a brief moment of panic, she quickly calmed down.

Qin Zheng nodded: "I got Mr. Zheng's Poison Sutra, and then formulated Yinchong Wan according to the habits of poisons here.

"How long will the things on you that make them afraid last?"

Xie Jinhua thought of the key point.

"Hunxiang Pill, one pill can confuse the smell of poison for half an hour. The medicinal materials are rare and difficult to prepare. The effective range is around this horse."

Qin Zheng was not surprised by Xie Jinhua's keenness. He took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom, and put a vermilion pill, as bright as fire, into Xie Jinhua's hands.

"Only ten."

Ten soul fragrance pills, each of which can only maintain the effect for half an hour, the range of effect is only within a square inch, which is too restrictive.

"I can't blame you for leaving so happily."

Xie Jinhua laughed, and suddenly thought of something: "You were going to deliver the things to Toure from the beginning!"

She is using an affirmative sentence at the moment.

Because of this discovery, Xie Jinhua's eyes are extraordinarily bright.

Qin Zheng didn't hide anything, and nodded happily: "Yes, I was waiting for him to come, but he came much slower than I expected, but it was a surprise that he brought you to me."

Still a big surprise.

"You want to support him?"

Xie Jinhua's mind turned quickly, and he grasped a certain thought: "I heard that Emperor Xiyuan attached great importance to the only son left by the eldest son who died young."

Qin Zheng's biological father, Prince Jing, the second prince, has used unscrupulous means to infiltrate Daqing for many years, in order to use these dark clues to conquer Daqing in the future, so as to obtain the merit of inviting heaven.

In the final analysis, no matter what King Jing did, Emperor Xi Yuan never made him the crown prince.

Qin Zheng looked at Xie Jinhua's way of thinking over there, and couldn't help stretching out his arms to hold her shoulders tightly: "I don't know if the emperor's grandfather really intends to surpass his son and make his grandson the heir apparent, but I know, my Father, now the thorn in the flesh is Yuan Yuming."

The enemy of the enemy is the friend.

Qin Zheng never had any father-son admiration for King Jing, if he had to say he had any emotion, it was just hatred.

Xie Jinhua knew Qin Zheng too well, with just one word, she knew Qin Zheng's thoughts, and she felt a slight pain in her heart, for Qin Zheng's sake.

There was no words between the two of them.

Qin Zheng rode a horse and led Xie Jinhua to walk, keep walking.

In the distance, Xie Jinhua saw a little green.

Going forward, you will come out of the desert, and beyond the desert is the border. If you go south, you will be Daqing, and if you go north, you will be Xiyuan.

Qin Zheng reined in the horse.

He embraced Xie Jinhua, pointed to the front, and said to Xie Jinhua: "Sister, the front is a border town, go south to Daqing, go north to Xiyuan, once you enter one side, there is no turning back."

He gave her one last chance to repent.

Xie Jinhua grabbed Qin Zheng's outstretched hand, and broke his fingertips into his palm: "Why are you talking so much nonsense, I'm here, can you still go back to the original way? Besides, if you want to To go to Daqing, be careful, it is still very easy to cross the border town."

Xie Jinhua spoke in a relaxed manner, with some banter.

Qin Zheng's serious worries seemed to be blown away by the wind, and could no longer be condensed.

He looked at Xie Jinhua, raised his lips, and promised: "Yes, whenever you want to go back to Daqing, I will take you back. No matter where you want to go in the future, I will take you there."

Xie Jinhua leaned her head between each other's chests, listening to the beating of Qin Zheng's heart: "Where you are is where I want to go."

These words were very soft, like a gust of wind passing by Qin Zheng's ears, but they will never be forgotten after hearing them.

Is the place with you the place I want to go?
Qin Zheng felt that this was the most touching love story he had ever heard.

"Me too"

The man murmured silently.

"Do you have a place to live in Xiyuan? I have very high requirements for food and accommodation."

Xie Jinhua turned around and talked about something else.

When Qin Zheng heard Xie Jinhua say this, the smile on his lips became brighter: "Yes, my own mansion, no, it's our two mansions."

After he arrived in Xiyuan, he did a few great things for King Jing.

There is nothing else, but money and wealth are enough.

Qin Zheng himself didn't care about these things, but he didn't want Xie Jinhua to suffer with him.

Even though he was not sure whether Xie Jinhua would come, he unconsciously reorganized the mansion he lives in according to Xie Jinhua's liking.

When Xie Jinhua heard Qin Zheng's words about you, he felt his heart soften for a moment.

Her and his mansion, their home?
Xie Jinhua found that he had already begun to look forward to it.

Xie Jinhua was willing to enter Xiyuan with Qin Zheng, but before she left, she didn't forget to let the guards protecting her inform Zheng Qianqiu, and Lily and the others who had gone to the border town.

"Father has returned to the capital. He wants to cooperate with the Baili family, and wants to respond to those above. By the way, what happened to you at the border?"

Xie Jinhua asked.

Although she guessed most of the process, she still wanted to hear Qin Zheng's story, especially about his 'death'.

"The emperor didn't like Baili's family achievements, so he wanted them to die naturally. I was the knife in the emperor's hand, and he was after you again. I had no way to take you away from under the emperor's nose. , so I had to blow up to death, I reached an agreement with the Baili family, they will help me protect you."

Qin Zheng didn't need to hide anything at this time.

Xie Jinhua thought of the smooth journey from the capital city to the border town, and understood that it should be the influence of the Baili family.

Otherwise, even if she had thirteen guards by her side, she would not have reached the border so smoothly.

Xie Jinhua is not the kind of lady who doesn't go out of the door and doesn't go out without any real knowledge. She understands the hardships of real travel.

Xie Jinhua told Qin Zheng his guess.

There was a smile in Qin Zheng's eyes. From the very beginning, he placed his bet on the Baili family, and he believed in Bailifeng's character.

It now appears that he has not misplaced his bets.

The man raised his eyes and looked to the south, the Baili family is no longer as single-minded and loyal as before, Daqing, maybe the sky will change soon.

I just don't know what it means to him and Xi Yuan after this change.

No matter what it means, it is not a good thing for those in power in Daqing.

At that moment, the smile in Qin Zheng's eyes gradually turned cold.

He has always held a grudge.

-

Capital
The emperor couldn't get up anymore. He summoned all the civil and military officials and the king of Qi late at night. As for the other living princes, one was demoted to common people and the other was imprisoned in the mansion. Like forgotten.

The emperor took King Qi's hand: "The land of Daqing is in your hands."

He was panting, and Wang Quan, the head servant beside him, had tears in his eyes, and his old face like a chrysanthemum was wrinkled out of shape.

King Qi's face was also full of pain, but only he knew the excitement and anticipation in his heart.

"Father, don't worry, I will definitely live up to your expectations. I will definitely manage Daqing well and live up to my father's entrustment."

At this moment, no matter how impatient King Qi was, he held back by force.

Under the influence of the Shenxianle drug, his temperament is now more irritable and irritable.

It's just that King Qi is used to acting, except for a few people, most people don't notice it.

The emperor opened his eyes, but he could no longer see the appearance of King Qi, his eyes were white.

She clenched King Qi's hand even more, and pulled him towards her.

King Qi leaned over: "Father, is there anything else you want to explain?"

The emperor leaned close to King Qi's ear, and paused every word: "Baili father and son, you can't stay. Tonight, kill them!"

King Qi looked stunned: "Father, you."

The emperor clenched King Qi's hand even more tightly, making his hand hurt from being grabbed: "A king must be ruthless."

"None of your brothers can threaten you anymore. The last threat is only Baili's family. Don't let your father regret passing the country to you!"

The emperor's voice was so low that only the king of Qi who was close at hand could hear it clearly, but the civil servants and generals kneeling outside the hall could only see the emperor explaining the funeral to the king of Qi.

King Qi looked down at the emperor, his eyes changing.

For the meaning in the emperor's words.

How many brothers does he know he designed to deal with?
"Li Quan."

The Emperor gave a final cry.

Li Quan sighed, wiped away the tears on his face, walked up to the emperor, and pulled out a bright yellow scroll from under his pillow.

That is, the imperial edict?
King Qi guessed.

"Following the fate of the heavens, the emperor ordered that Qi Wang Qin Heng is my fourth son, with noble character and good conduct, and I deeply bow to me."

It was indeed an edict to pass on the throne, and everyone felt a solid sense of dust falling to the ground.

Now the only prince who can be used is King Qi, it's not that King Qi has no one else.

So no one has an objection.

Li Quan sent the edict to King Qi's palm: "Your Majesty ordered Baili and his son to stay, and everyone else to go out. I have something to say."

King Qi looked at the emperor, and the emperor's dazed, cloudy eyes met him.

King Qi lowered his head, holding the imperial decree in both hands, slowly retreated respectfully, and then led everyone except Bailifeng and his son to the door.

Only the emperor, Li Quan, and Bailifeng and his son were left in the hall. General Baili looked ugly. He looked at the emperor suspiciously and looked around. A sneer flashed in Bailifeng's eyes.

"Kowtow to Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live."

King Qi stood still outside the door, and someone couldn't wait to come forward to flatter him.

"I haven't officially ascended the throne yet, so don't rush to shout."

He said so, but he had already opened his mouth and called himself "Zhen".

"Your Majesty has an imperial edict in his hand, we can all be witnesses, why do we need to wait until he is enthroned?"

There are officials flattering.

Most people are flattering King Qi, including a few who didn't like him before.

King Qi felt comfortable physically and mentally.

Just pay attention to the movement in the hall.

There was no sound in the hall at first, but after a while, a sharp voice came out from the hall: "Bailifeng, you dare to kill the king!"

As soon as the sound came out, everyone rushed into the hall unconsciously, regardless of whether they cared or didn't care.

A dagger on the emperor's chest pierced straight into his heart, and the blood was sweet.

And beside him, Bailifeng stood there, looking at this scene ironically.

General Baili was so stupid that he couldn't even move.

Only Li Quan was still screaming, telling about the Baili family's regicide.

"Where are the imperial guards, let me take them all!"

King Qi ordered decisively!

-

The night was deep, and when most people were falling into a deep sleep, the dull bell suddenly rang throughout the capital.

The bell came from the center of the capital, which was the direction of the palace.

At the first chime, someone woke up from sleep, unaware of what had happened.

After more than a dozen bells, many well-informed people realized something. For a full 81 bells, the bell rang throughout the world, and everyone panicked.

81 When the death bell rings, it is a national mourning, and the emperor has passed away.
