Chapter 491 Fighting to the death (3)
Ming Gong dared to signal to the left and right to step back, slowly walked in front of Concubine Jiang, said with a downcast face, "Speak quickly if you have something to say, don't hide it."

Concubine Jiang lightly opened her mouth and said, "My Majesty, I heard that Mr. Diutu did not die that day, but secretly hid himself. There have been traces of this person's activities all these years!"

"Nonsense! Quetu died in a bloody battle with Xirong back then, and I personally went to the funeral. The whole world knows, how dare you confuse the public and say these weird things openly?" Ming Gong immediately changed his face, and grabbed Concubine Jiang's chin with one hand , raised vigorously.

"Your Majesty, calm down, what my concubine said is absolutely true, because at Hulao Pass, my concubine felt this way, especially in the capital recently, such rumors have become more and more mysterious, and they all say that Judu is lurking in the rivers and lakes, Shenlong sees the beginning but does not see the end!" Concubine Jiang insisted.

"That Jutu is my servant, even if he didn't die, it's our Great Zhou's blessing!" Ming Gong pushed Concubine Jiang away and said coldly.

"But my lord, have you ever thought that since Que Tu is not dead, why didn't he come to see the king, but kept hiding in secret? My concubine thinks that Que Tu is holding a grudge and has ulterior motives. Maybe he is planning to Rebellion!" Concubine Jiang added fuel and vinegar.

"Your Majesty, you have to guard against this person, especially for the Queen. He is really desperate. The concubine heard that the reason why the Queen was safe and sound when she was in the Hulao Pass was that someone opened a medicine for the Queen behind her back. A very effective prescription!" Seeing that Ming Gong's eyes were wandering, Concubine Jiang quickly added another fire.

"Concubine Jiang, no matter what you say is true or not, for the sake of the eternal state of the Great Zhou Dynasty, I must be careful. Tell me, who else knows that Dutu didn't die?" Ming Gong turned his head, He stared at Concubine Jiang covetously.

"Your Majesty, my concubine knows that the cabinet minister Cheng Rong was assassinated in his arms last time, and he escaped with the help of a man in black. The concubine suspects that the man in black is Qutu! "Concubine Jiang said in a colorful voice.

"What, there is such a thing? Come on, call Lord Cheng Rong into the Shuilong Shuren Hall to discuss matters immediately!" Mingong was shocked immediately, and quickly winked at Rou'er who was standing beside him.

When Cheng Rong rushed to the Shuilong Shuren Hall, Ming Gong sat alone on the dragon chair and stared at Cheng Rong suspiciously. Cheng Rong hurriedly saluted: "Old minister, send your respects to the king."

"Cheng Rong, you are my servant and have always been loyal to me. However, today I want to ask you, have you ever hidden anything from me after you have assisted me for more than 20 years?" Ming Gong asked coldly with a serious face. .

"Well, I don't know which one the king is referring to?" Cheng Rong is so smart, knowing that he has been plotted against, he hurriedly asked for advice.

"Hmph, for example, regarding the life and death of Mr. Dutu, when you were pregnant, were you ever rescued by a man in black?" Mingong asked with a wry smile.

"Well, where did the king ask me to start? I was assassinated in my arms, and was indeed rescued by some folks, but I'm really strange. Could it be that all the men in black who saved people were the same as the dead young master Dietu?" Does it matter?" Cheng Rong explained.

"Cheng Rong, I didn't expect that you wanted to play tricks on me. Tell me, who is that man in black? He is not related to you, so why did he help you?" Mingong frowned suddenly.

"My lord, I have been confused until now. If I really knew who the man in black was, I would have sent someone to thank me long ago. Why hide it from my lord?" Cheng Rong laughed loudly.

"Well, you have the guts, Cheng Rong, I warn you, if you are unfaithful to me, I will definitely not let you go easily!" Ming Gong said with eyes like torches.

"My lord, something is wrong. I don't know who is spreading rumors, saying that Mr. Dutu is not dead, but is lurking in the capital to plot evil. Now, even Mr. Cheng Rong has been questioned by the king!" In the quiet Jianjia Palace , Axi, who was in a hurry, sent Baosi an amazing news.

"It's really chasing rumors and looking for trouble maliciously! If Qutu is not dead, he wouldn't be lurking in the capital, so why should he be so miserable?" Bao Si was furious, her cheeks flushed with anger.
