Chapter 530
The news of Song Qinghuan's assassination in the Huitong Hall quickly spread back to the palace. For a while, everyone in the palace was in danger, holding their breath and concentrating, not daring to make a single mistake.

Soon, Song Qinghuan's carriage drove to the gate of the palace, and after changing the carriage, hurried to Huaqing Palace.A nearby maid on duty saw from afar that the empress empress was being carried out from under the carriage covered in blood, she looked very scary, and her heart became more and more lost.

Everyone knows that the emperor is the most precious empress, and his mood changes completely with the empress's joy and anger on weekdays. Now that the empress is stabbed and injured, the emperor must be furious, and the master is in a bad mood, which will inevitably affect them.I can only pray secretly in my heart, at this time, nothing can go wrong.

Sure enough, not long after the empress returned to the palace, the emperor galloped back to the palace on horseback. Because his mount was a rare horse, he threw off a large part of the attendants behind him.It was precisely because of this that when entering the palace, one of the guards at the city gate failed to recognize his mount in time, and was unable to dodge in time, and was knocked to the ground by the emperor's whip.

Fortunately, General Chu who came later saw him, and asked someone to help him to the imperial hospital. After the examination by the imperial physician, because the emperor didn't use much force, he just scratched his skin and flesh, and he will recover after two days of recuperation.

As soon as General Chu entered the palace, the sky darkened immediately, the last ray of the sun disappeared, and palm lamps were lit everywhere in the palace, winding like a long dragon.

But today, in such a brightly lit palace, the atmosphere is extremely tense.

The gate of Huaqing Palace was closed tightly, and the imperial physician never came out after entering. All the other maids and servants were sent out, only Liuyue and Shenxing were left.

After a long time, the door opened, and the sweaty imperial doctor came out, and left tremblingly without saying anything.A colleague from the Imperial Hospital asked curiously, but he just shook his head, waved his hands repeatedly, and kept his mouth shut, saying that the emperor ordered that the empress's physical condition should not be disclosed to anyone.

Since the emperor personally made the decree, those who do good things have no choice but to give up.

That night, the entire city was under martial law and the city gates were closed. Unless there were special circumstances, no one was allowed to enter and leave Lindu City at will.

The common people also heard the rumors, and they all knew that Liangguo and Qin Diji hurt their empress.

After Shen Chuhan succeeded to the throne, he and Song Qinghuan did a lot of practical things that benefited the people, and deliberately credited Song Qinghuan with the credit. In addition, Song Qinghuan was kind and kind, and the people who had met her were full of praise for her. People in Lindu have a good apoplexy review.

Therefore, when they heard that Song Qinghuan was injured, the people immediately lost a good impression of the Liang country mission, and they all prayed for Song Qinghuan's speedy recovery.Naturally, there was no objection to Shen Chuhan's order to seal the city.

As for the Liangguo Mission, since they were arrested that day, they have been imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.To Yao Su's surprise, he has been imprisoned for two days, and today is the third day, and no one has come to interrogate him, and Xuan Ying has disappeared. dinner, but no matter what he said, he said nothing.

Without access to the outside world, Yao Su became more and more anxious.

He speculated that the reason Zhaoguo stood still was probably because he was waiting to see what happened to Song Qinghuan.If Song Qinghuan could wake up, for Liang Guo's sake, they might still be able to save their lives, but if there was anything wrong with Song Qinghuan, Shen Chuhan would definitely let them be buried with them.

Yao Su is nervous and anxious now, and he doesn't know what happened that day?Also, what happened to the master?

Now he even hoped that Xuan Ying would come to interrogate him soon, so that he might be able to get some words out of his mouth.

While waiting anxiously, another day passed, and Xuanying still did not come.

The torture room was at the innermost part of the dungeon, surrounded by solid walls, and it was dark. He could only judge the time by the timing of the food delivered by the armored guards.

That day, after the armored guard delivered him dinner, he closed the iron door and walked out. No matter what he said, he still remained silent.

Yao Su had no choice but to pick up his rice bowl and eat.

Now the iron cuffs on his hands have been removed, only his feet are still imprisoned by iron chains, so he can eat and eat freely.He wasn't worried that Xuanying would poison the food. After all, if Xuanying wanted to kill him, he could do it blatantly, and there was no need to spend so much trouble.

After eating, the rice bowl was thrown away, and the torture room fell into deathly silence again.

I don't know how long it has passed, and when I was about to fall asleep in a daze, I suddenly heard some movement outside the door.He woke up suddenly, staring at the closed door vigilantly, and for some reason, his heartbeat also accelerated.

After waiting for a while, I suddenly heard a "squeak", which seemed particularly intrusive in this ghostly torture room.His expression was serious, he didn't dare to blink at all, he held his breath and stared at the door, only to see that the thick door was pushed open from the outside, and a black figure flashed in.

Seeing the person coming was wearing a black night clothes, with a black cloth covering his face, Yao Su's expression was serious, and he shouted in a low voice, "Who?" The black mask covering his face.

Seeing the familiar face in the flickering candle, Yao Su was taken aback and stammered, "Master...Master, you...how did you come here?!"

The visitor strode up to Yao Su's side, lowered his voice and said concisely, "I'm here to save you." As he spoke, he raised his sword and dropped it, and the iron chains that bound Yao Su's feet snapped.

Yao Su regained his freedom, stomped his feet and stood up, staring at the people around him with wide eyes, still in shock, "Master, what happened? Changdiji, she...? Didn't you say...?" Yao Su There are countless questions circling in my mind, and I don't know which one to ask for a while, and it is inevitable that I become a little incoherent.

The visitor frowned, "It's a long story. Yin Qingrong has been caught by them. Although I escaped by chance, I can't wait until now."

"The master means... to retreat? But..." Yao Su was a little puzzled, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the man in black, "I don't have time to explain too much to you now, the guards outside are just Dazed by me, the armored guards will come to patrol soon, let's go out first."

Yao Su hurriedly nodded in response, "Okay."

The man in black led Yao Su to the door and said, "I still have to go to the palace. Now that the armored guards are searching in Lindu City, the guards in the palace are rather weak."

Yao Su was startled, "Master, it is too dangerous for you to enter the palace again at this time."

The man in black sneered, "It's not enough to vent my hatred if I don't take her life. Yin Qingrong has been exposed, and sooner or later the two countries will fight. Kill her, and we will rush back to Liangguo overnight."

"But..." Yao Su still hesitated.

The man in black stared coldly, "What? Do you dare to question my decision?"

Yao Su shivered and lowered his head, "Subordinates dare not."

The man in black opened the door, looked around, and saw that there was nothing unusual, Chao Yaosu beckoned, lowered his voice and said, "After you go out, you gather the rest of the people, and when I come out of the palace , we'll go."

Although Yao Su felt that the master's decision was too risky, he knew that the master had always said what he said, so naturally he would not listen to him, so he had to give up at the moment, gave up persuasion, and nodded in agreement.

Because the guards of the sky prison had been stunned by the man in black when he came, the two of them left the prison unimpeded. When they went out, they almost bumped into the patrolling armored guards. Fortunately, the man in black was alert and pulled Yao Su dodged.

After the armored guard left, the man in black and Yao Su came out of the shadows. The man in black glanced at Yao Su and said coldly, "Go quickly."

"Yes." Yao Su clasped his fists in response, tapped his toes, jumped a few times in the air, and quickly disappeared into the moonlight, leaving the man in black staring at him in a daze.

Moonlight leaked from the clouds and shone on the face of the man in black.

With beautiful eyebrows and green daisy, slightly raised phoenix eyes, and a small tear mole at the corner of the eye, she is indescribably charming——

It is the current empress of Liang Kingdom, Su Rao!

She withdrew her gaze, made a gesture towards the back somewhere, quickly performed lightness kung fu, and left the prison.

*
It was late at night, and most people in Lindu city had turned off their lights to go to bed, but in a relatively remote house in the south of the city, several lights were still burning, and there were faint figures walking around and talking.

This time, a black figure appeared at the back door of the house. He looked around vigilantly, but seeing no one was around, he stepped forward and knocked on the door five times twice.

Soon, the door was pulled open, and a man's head was exposed, with a fierce look in his eyes, looking vigilantly at the person coming.

Seeing the person coming, the man was startled, "Boss, why are you here?!"

The black shadow called the boss by this man is Yao Su who just escaped from the prison. He shook his head and said in a deep voice, "It's a long story, let's go in and talk."

The man agreed, made a way out to invite Yao Su to go in, poked his head out to look around, and then closed the door again.

Yao Su followed behind the man and soon arrived at the main hall.

There were quite a few people gathered in the main hall, all talking in low voices, and the atmosphere was rather anxious.

As soon as Yao Su entered the main hall, someone saw him and exclaimed, "Boss!"

Everyone raised their heads one after another, seeing that it was Yao Su, they hurriedly gathered around and asked questions in a hurry.

Yao Su waved his hand and signaled everyone to calm down first, "I am as confused as everyone else about what happened in the past few days. But the good news is that I just met my master, and it was she who rescued me from prison."

The people hiding in this mansion are those who came to the capital secretly with Su Rao. Like Yao Su, they used to follow Su Rao's subordinates to do some spies and assassination missions that Su Rao entrusted to them.

Too many things happened suddenly in the past few days. Yin Qingrong assassinated the empress, the Liangguo mission was arrested and sent to the jail of the Criminal Ministry, and their master's whereabouts were unknown. This group of people has no backbone, and they don't know what to do next Do.Although he knew that Yao Su was in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he didn't dare to act rashly, fearing that something bad would happen instead, so he has been fidgeting for the past few days. Unexpectedly, Yao Su suddenly came back by himself.

"Where is the master now?" Someone asked again.

"Master has to carry out a mission. Now that Lindu is not safe, tell the brothers to come back and prepare to retreat." Yao Su said in a deep voice.

"But... now the whole city is under martial law, how can I get out?" Some people were puzzled.

"Call everyone back first, the master has his own arrangements for going out." Yao Su's heart is also very confused now, how can he control so much.The master has great powers, she said that if she can go out, she can go out naturally.

"Yes." Seeing that Yao Su's complexion was not very good, the others didn't dare to ask more questions, they scattered around and went down to perform their duties.

Soon, the other people who went out to inquire about the situation also returned after receiving the secret signal.

Yao Su counted the number of people, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that everyone was here.However, when he glanced at the sky outside, he felt uneasy again.

Counting it, it has been almost two hours since the master went to the palace, why hasn't there been any movement?
He frowned, and was thinking about whether to send someone to secretly check the situation near the palace, when he suddenly heard a strange noise coming from outside the hall, before he could react, he saw a person stumbling in, "Boss, it's not good Yes, we... we are surrounded!"

Yao Su was startled, pushed him away, and strode out of the hall, only to see ghostly figures of armored guards suddenly appearing on the top of the courtyard walls on both sides, pointing their bows and arrows at them, and the arrows glowed in the moonlight. With a piercing silver light.

My heart skipped a beat, and before I could figure out what happened, I heard a "dong dong" knocking on the door in the courtyard, which seemed to be coming from the front door.

His face turned pale.

No, someone outside wants to break open the door and come in!
Just as they were about to gather the crowd to meet the enemy, there was another loud bang, and the door of the front yard fell to the ground, and the armored guards outside the door rushed in, and the torches in their hands instantly illuminated the small yard.

At this moment, a tall man walked out from behind the crowd, walking steadily. He walked into the yard, stopped a few steps away from Yao Su, looked at Yao Su coldly, "General Yao, we meet again."

Yao Su was taken aback, pointed at him, and stammered, "You...why are you here?"

It turned out that the person who appeared in front of him was none other than Xuanying.

Xuanying was expressionless, "Naturally, General Yao brought me here." Then, he waved his hand back, "Take down all these rebels!"

Yao Su's body softened, only one thought remained in his mind.

It's over, it's calculated.He said that the prison was heavily guarded, how could he escape so easily, it turned out that this was all a trap set by Xuanying!

He glanced at Xuanying, his eyes turned hard, and just as he was about to move, a sharp sword was already placed on his neck, and a cold chill spread from his neck to his whole body.

Xuanying looked at him, still expressionless, "Swords have no eyes, General Yao, don't move around." As he spoke, he raised his chin, signaling to the armored guards holding Yaosu to press him down.

A few more days passed.

The results of the investigation into the assassination of the Empress Empress by Ning Le Chang Diji of Liang State finally came out. It turned out that Liang State had always been ambitious and sent a mission to Lindu under the guise of peace talks.

Their original plan was for Ning Le Changdi Ji to drug the queen's tea while the empress was going to add makeup to her, and then waited for the opportunity to assassinate her.

No matter whether he succeeds or not, as long as the news of the assassination of the empress reaches Emperor Han, Emperor Han will be furious and in chaos.At this time, General Yao Suyao, who was attending the wedding banquet in Murong Mansion, took advantage of the chaos and assassinated Emperor Han in one fell swoop.At that time, the dragons of the Zhao Kingdom will be leaderless, and there will be chaos. At that time, the army of the Liang Kingdom will take advantage of the emptiness and move south, directly attacking Lindu.

Evidence, apart from the fact that the Empress was stabbed by Ning Le Chang Di Ji, the Iron Armored Guards also found poisonous sharp weapons from the soles of Yao Su's boots, which were supposed to have turned in the weapons, and followed the vine to find the weapon hidden in Lindu City to prepare for it. Liang country spies.

There are all the witnesses and material evidences, and there is no room for Yao Su and Liang Guo's mission to deny it.

After the investigation results came out, Emperor Han was furious, and bluntly said that the wolves of Liang State were too ambitious to deceive others. In front of all civil and military officials, he tore up the peace agreement signed with Liang State, and ordered the Northeast Army stationed in Chongzhou to enter Liang State immediately. The queen took revenge, and at the same time, General Murong Zhuo, who had just returned to Beijing, immediately set off for Chongzhou.

On the Lindu side, 18 members of the Liang country mission and 21 Liang country spies who were tracked down were all beheaded for public display as an example to others.

However, the chief culprit of the incident, Yin Qingrong, Ning Le Changdi Ji of Liang Kingdom, is missing. There are rumors that when Ning Le Chang Di Ji intended to assassinate the Empress Empress, she was spotted by the Empress Empress. Although she was seriously injured, she He still tried his best to stab Ning Le Chang Di Ji.

Fortunately, the Empress recovered gradually, and for such a vicious woman as Ning Le Chang Di Ji, everyone gradually forgot her whereabouts.

On this day, April [-]th, exactly one month had passed since the assassination incident on that day.

The night is deep, the stars are colorful, and the cool breeze is blowing.

Three people came out of Huaqing Palace, the head of which was covered with a hood, and the two behind them carried lanterns and headed towards the southeast corner of the palace.
