Phoenix that can't smile

Chapter 766 Create Panic

In front of Amway's eyes, Bo Li's radiant face appeared. "Amway, is the whereabouts of the Empress Dowager Ping still missing?" Bo Li picked up the wine bowl and asked with a big smile.

"Marshal, we have already contacted Ma Wumen, and that Ma Wumen also sent out forbidden soldiers disguised as assassins to investigate everywhere, but there seems to be no trace of Queen Dowager Ping in the Jutu mansion, so the subordinates think that we must be Zhong Chengrong again. It's a plan!" Amway replied very sadly.

"Anli, Baosi, we must get rid of this woman, not only because she is Dig Tu's true love, but more importantly, this woman is smarter than Jiang Taigong, if this woman is not from our Xirong, Then she must disappear, the puppet emperor Shui Jian is not a good person at all, if Bao Si had not been assisting him, maybe he would have become a beacon in Lishan like his father!" Bo Li cunningly He stared at Amway emphatically.

"But Marshal, maybe this Empress Dowager Bao Si has already passed away. Calculate carefully, she was poisoned by Shui Jian's son. If she is still so lethargic at this time, wouldn't there be no hope at all?" Amway A little doubtful.

"No, Baosi will definitely not die so easily, otherwise, according to Jugtu's temperament, he and Shuijian would have turned upside down a long time ago, and he would have no time to listen to Cheng Rong's ambush, so this commander is worried, Baosi is still the same In Jutu's mansion, as for whether she has woken up, I can't guess for the time being!" Bai Li wiped his beard and said. ,

"Marshal, why don't we encourage Ma Wumen to probe again? If Shuijian still wants to kill Baosi, then he must also want to find Baosi very much! Now many of our spies have been captured by Cheng Rong and Ming Chao. The Huben army has arrested them, if our brothers from Xirong go out in person, they will definitely touch the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, and everyone will know about it!" An Li offered advice to Bo Li.

"Okay, Anli, send someone to contact Ma Wumen immediately, and ask him to test whether Shui Jian'er will kill Baosi or protect Baosi!" Bai Li pointed at Anli.

At the Shuilong Shuren Palace, at the court meeting at Chenshi, after hearing the inspection results of Dugtu and Cheng Rong on the Nine Gates of Luoyang, Shui Jian couldn't help feeling very troubled by the rampant spies of Xirong. Is the Empress Dowager in your residence? Can you answer me sincerely?"

Jue Tu held up the imperial wat and said: "Report to the emperor, the Empress Dowager Ping is indeed in the residence of the minister, and the holy body is in good health. If the emperor makes a decree, the minister can take the empress back to the palace."

"Bao Si is really still alive?" Shui Jian suddenly became nervous.

"Your Majesty, according to what I have seen, the killing of the imperial doctor of Zhou and the disappearance of the Empress Dowager last time were all plots by the Xirong spies. As for King Zheng's silence after finding the Empress Dowager, I am afraid it was also to protect the Empress Dowager!" Prime Minister Ming Chao Hurry up and report.

"Well, that's right, and I expected it to be the same. Those Xirong spies pretended to be ordinary people everywhere in the capital, spreading rumors everywhere, slandering the empress dowager and important ministers. It's really abominable!" About Bao Si's matter, he felt uneasy and hurriedly agreed.

"Your Majesty, after a few days of contemplation, I found that the key goal of these Xirong thieves sneaking into Luoyang was to assassinate the Empress Dowager Ping, so please issue an imperial decree to publicize Xirong's crimes to the public, and then announce to welcome the Empress Dowager Ping back to the palace." Cheng Rong solemnly suggested.

After retiring from the court, Jue Tu was very worried about Baosi's safety, so he grabbed Cheng Rong's mount and asked, "Brother Cheng, the emperor really tried to kill the empress dowager last time, but I'm worried. This time the emperor welcomes the empress dowager back. Palace, could it also be a trap?"

"Quitu, the emperor is probably aware of how important the empress dowager is to the Great Zhou these days. Xirong and Xue Ju of the Yue Kingdom sent assassins to assassinate the empress so frantically, which shows that the empress dowager means a lot to the emperor. It's so important, so the emperor will not attack the queen mother for the time being, but I think the emperor will use the queen mother as a hostage in the future to contain the military power of you and the Huben army." Cheng Rong stroked his beard and comforted Qu Tu for a while.

"Brother Cheng, this is easy to handle. As long as the emperor doesn't have murderous intentions for the empress dowager, why should I, Qu Tu, fight against the emperor? We are all ministers of the Great Zhou, and it is our volition to serve the country loyally!" smiled happily.

Peony Pavilion, ever since Cheng Rong's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain, Concubine Min has hated Cheng Rong, Ming Chao, Jug Tu and other important officials. When Empress Dowager Ping returned to Luan, she was even more panicked, and quickly found Hua Gu and Ma Wumen to discuss matters.

"My lords, Jug Tu is bold and reckless. He has broken ties with Baosi, the former lowly servant girl, and secretly controlled the imperial court. Now that the emperor is deceived by treacherous ministers, you should think of a good way to get rid of Jug Tu, Baosi Cheng Rong and others forever! Concubine Min Gui raised her brows vertically, and said with a murderous look on her lips.

"Madam, Baosi has a daughter, Princess Wanyun, and a prince Ruiwang Rongcheng entrusted by Empress Ping, who is the most taboo of the emperor today? Isn't it the prince Rongcheng of Pingwang, why don't we send people to spread rumors everywhere, Let’s just say that Baosi is hiding in Prince Zheng’s mansion, and has long conspired with Jutu Cheng Rongming’s superiors in an attempt to support Rui Wang Rongcheng to become the throne and replace the current emperor’s throne, so the emperor will be very angry, and the hatred between Baosi and Baosi will be even greater!” Ma Wumen curled his mouth and rolled his eyes cunningly.

"Your Excellency Ma is really clever, but our blow must be effective immediately, one stone will stir up thousands of waves, and arouse the emperor's extreme hatred for Bao Si!" Hua Gu smiled slyly.

"Lord Hua, are you looking for someone to do something to the prince, and make the emperor suspect that it was the act of digging?" Ma Wumen couldn't help showing a treacherous smile.

"That's right, ma'am, this time we must let the prince Bao'en's life die suddenly, and make the emperor feel heartbroken!" Ma Wumen showed a vicious expression like a devil.

In the middle of the night, in the Prince's East Palace, Empress Ma came to take care of Prince Bao'en's studies very comfortably as usual, but what made people feel extremely strange was that Prince Bao'en came forward to salute with a smile, but his expression was very strange.

"Emperor, what's wrong with your face? Is it cold and you have frostbite?" Empress Ma held up Bao En's immature child's face with great distress, and looked at it intently. Unexpectedly, in an instant, Prince Bao En fainted. The seven orifices bleed.

"Come on, tell the imperial physician, the prince is critically ill!" Empress Ma, who was so frightened, was at a loss and immediately yelled.

"Mother, the ancient imperial physician is here!" After a while, the imperial physician Gu Feng, who was running profusely, came forward to pay his respects. The maids helped the imperial physician to the prince's bed. Empress, the crown prince's dinner was forfeited, and the veteran found puffer fish meat from the crown prince's mouth, someone must have deliberately assassinated the crown prince!"

"Who is it? Who wants to murder my prince!" At this time, there was chaos outside the Kunning Palace, and the crazy Shui Jian ran to the bed of the prince Baoen at a high speed, and sternly questioned the terrified ancient imperial physician.

"Your Majesty, I am very puzzled as to how the palace was mixed with puffer fish meat. Tonight's mandarin fish for the prince in the imperial dining room was secretly replaced with poisonous puffer fish. I suspect that the palace has mixed with Xirong Spy!" The ancient imperial physician hurriedly knelt down and stammered back.

"It's nonsense, puffer fish is a dish that is only made in the south, come here, arrest and torture all the southern cooks in the imperial dining room, and if they can't answer, they will all beheaded!" Shui Jian was so angry that he almost went crazy.

Ma Wumen immediately led the people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice to interrogate the people in the imperial dining room severely. The cooks were frightened and begged for mercy, and they started biting wildly.

Outside the Luoyang Palace, Shui Jian was very annoyed by the prince's condition, so he personally led the guards out of the palace to look for the doctor.

"My Majesty, I heard that there is a famous doctor named Ye Rugui on the Fragrant Mountain outside Luoyang City. If the Emperor's imperial driver personally invites him out of the mountain, maybe he will save the prince's life!" Marquis Wei reported to Shui Jian on the spot.

"Okay, even if I arrest him, I will also capture this Ye Rugui back!" Shui Jian immediately took Ma Wumen, steered his mount, and galloped towards Xiangshan.

When he arrived at Xiangshan, Shuijian was very worried that Baoen's life would not last for a few days, so he quickly climbed to the top of Xiangshan and came to Ye Rugui's alchemy in person.

"Reporting to the emperor, since you asked me to use magic spells to save the prince, I can do a divination!" Ye Rugui is an old man in his seventies and eighties, with a strong sense of demeanor. When he saw Shui Jian asking him for advice anxiously, he could not help but slightly With a smile, he calculated very mysteriously in the sand table in front of him.

After a long while, the old man took out a stick with a few words written on it, the little dragon came out of the water, and the real spirit of the phoenix.

"Well, sir, what does this mean?" Shui Jian was very surprised by Ye Rugui's hint.

"Your Majesty, if you want to save the life of the future emperor, you can only use this sword to remove the true blood and soul of the Phoenix!" Ye Rugui had a mysterious look on his face.

"Phoenix? Ma Aiqing, tell me, who is this Phoenix referring to?" Shui Jian asked anxiously, grabbing Ma Wumen's lapel.

"Your Majesty, according to the rumors outside the palace, the only person who is worthy of the reincarnation of the Phoenix is ​​the Empress Dowager Ping!" Ma Wumen immediately knelt down and replied.

"So it's still Baosi, let's go, Ma Wumen, follow me to Jugtu's mansion, I want to get Baosi's true blood myself!" Shui Jian smiled ferociously at Ma Wumen, and quickly rode on the fast horse until Come to Prince Zheng's Mansion.

Prince Zheng's mansion, Jutu and Cheng Rong, as well as Jiang Caibing and Xinyue, all followed Mingyue to Baosi's bedroom. In the faint air, there was a melody like a melody, accompanied by a fragrance, which made people feel extra heartwarming. joy.

"Empress Dowager Ping!" Everyone knelt in front of the curtain in unison.

The silk curtain was slowly opened by Qianqian's jade fingers, revealing Baosi's poetic beauty and frowning eyes.

"Si'er, you've finally woken up!" Ju Tu knelt down in front of Bao Si in relief, tears streaming down his face.

On the way to Prince Zheng's Mansion, Shui Jian, who was very vigilant, suddenly heard passers-by discussing in secret, and there were rumors that the Empress Dowager Jutu Heping was going to support Rui Wang Rongcheng as the new emperor.

"What? Could it be that my emperor's son was really poisoned and murdered by Qu Tu?"

The impulsive Shui Jian kicked open the gate of Prince Zheng's Mansion, and rushed towards the excavated bedroom.

When Cheng Rong, Ming Chao, An Tong and other important officials saw Shui Jian rushing into the house with a fierce face, they couldn't help but stood up, the first thing that bore the brunt was Bao Si's frown like a moon.
