After the first fool

Chapter 159

Sitting in the bedroom, Mo Xiaoran kept thinking about how to rescue the prime minister. After thinking for a long time, it seemed that she really had to start from Bai Zixu. If he agreed to suspend the execution, then she could find the evidence. Although it is idealistic to reverse the case for the prime minister, there is at least a [-]% possibility, so you should try it.

"Miss, it's time for lunch." She walked in from outside the hall with a lunch box in her hand. Perhaps she knew about the prime minister. The delicate side dishes inside were brought out one by one, and by the way, they prepared good dishes for Mo Xiaoran.

"Xiaozhu," Mo Xiaoran rolled her eyes, "I have something for you to do."

Xiao Zhu stared blankly at Mo Xiaoran's smiling face, as if seeing the wagging tail behind her, the corner of her mouth twitched slightly: "Miss, please tell me."

"When you take out the lunch box later, take the opportunity to run outside." Mo Xiaoran ordered with a hint of cunning in her eyes.

"Ah?" Xiaozhu widened his eyes in astonishment, and ran out? "Where are you going?"

"Whatever you want, lure me away from those imperial guards, I'll take the opportunity to slip away, and then find Bai Zixu, and ask him to take it back!" As long as the prime minister has a chance to reverse the case, Bai Zixu is very likely to agree, as long as the two crimes Minus one, the prime minister should be able to escape the death penalty, at least to save one life.

"Miss, will the emperor agree? Didn't you say that the eldest lady has gone to the emperor? If it was useful, the imperial decree would have been withdrawn long ago." Xiao Zhu couldn't help reminding, after all, there are very few imperial edicts that are changed after they are promulgated. precedent.

Mo Xiaoran raised her eyebrows slightly, and there was a flash of light in her eyes: "I have to try." If she tried her best and tried her best but still couldn't rescue the prime minister, at least she had fulfilled her responsibilities as a child , When I get old in the future, I will not regret it when I look back.

Facing Mo Xiaoran's unwavering gaze, Xiao Zhu sighed in his heart: "Yes, this servant knows."

"Don't be so sad, I'm not asking you to die," Mo Xiaoran pinched the tip of her nose, laughing wildly, "You just need to run as hard as you can and don't look back, and I'll do the rest."

"Then the servant may be caught, and there is only one breath left." Xiaozhu muttered.

"Hey, you've stuttered a lot lately." Mo Xiaoran smiled, and compared to the submissive and careful girl she met at first, the current Xiaozhu is more suitable for her eyes, "Don't worry, don't you?" Anything will happen, I promise." Mo Xiaoran secretly glanced out of the window from the corner of her eye, there was a breeze, would he allow Xiao Zhu to have an accident?No wonder!
This is also one of the reasons why Mo Xiaoran used this strategy so reassuringly. On the premise of ensuring Xiaozhu's life, she should be able to sneak out smoothly.

Seeing that she spoke confidently, Xiaozhu felt relieved a lot. What the young lady said must be correct. The master and servant finished their lunch quickly. Walking towards the moon-shaped arch step by step with the empty lunch box, Mo Xiaoran's arms at the side tightened slightly, bypassing the blind spot of the imperial guards, carefully approaching the high wall, her back pressed against the wall, feeling the cold touch Through the fabric of the clothes, it passed into her pores.

Xiao Zhu lowered her head, and handed the lunch box to A Luo in the imperial dining room. Then, from the corner of her eye, she saw that Mo Xiaoran had arrived at the door and was separated from the Imperial Guard by a wall. She took a deep breath, and suddenly let go of her throat A scream: "Ah—"

With windy legs and a thin and compact body, with explosive power, he knocked over the front guard and rushed outside.

"Hurry up!" The commander of the imperial guards was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly ordered people to hunt down Xiao Zhu who had escaped.

Mo Xiaoran's eyes lit up, it's now!

She dragged one of the imperial guards past, stunned him with a knife in one hand, then quickly took off his armor and put it on herself. The smell of sweat in the heavy armor made her want to vomit.

Almost all attention was focused on Xiao Zhu who was running away. Mo Xiaoran took the opportunity to sneak into the imperial guards, and trotted over in the direction Xiao Zhu left. In the corner of the wall, the Imperial Guard was stripped to nothing but a white cloak, alone.

The corner of Qingfeng's mouth twitched suddenly, thinking that something unexpected happened to Xiaozhu, but after following her all the way, he saw her hiding behind a rock in the imperial garden, patted her chest and gasped, what did she not understand?He obviously fell into someone's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain!He glared at Xiaozhu angrily: "Is it bad to learn from your lady?"

Xiaozhu kept panting heavily, her delicate face was flushed, she didn't know if it was tired, or she was ashamed when she saw the person she liked.

She rolled her eyes and said back, "You want to care?"

"Where did your lady go?" Qingfeng asked in a deep voice, the master's order was not to let Mo Xiaoran out of his sight, but now it's a good thing, he actually lost her, it was all the fault of the little girl in front of him.

Xiaozhu quickly shut her mouth, as if she would kill her without saying anything, and made Qingfeng's teeth itch with anger, wishing to bite her to death with one bite.

On the other side, Mo Xiaoran's disguise fooled many people. She lowered her head along the way, covered her cheeks with the movement of fanning the wind, walked around half of the palace, and finally arrived at the imperial study room. Wet with sweat, wearing heavy armor, her physical strength was about to end, with her hands resting on her knees, she gasped heavily, panting like a cow.

Li Quan stood guard outside the imperial study room, and looked strangely at the Imperial Guard who was standing by the flower garden not far away, bent over and didn't know what he was doing. Asked: "You..."

Mo Xiaoran raised her head quickly, and cast an apologetic smile at Li Quan, then pulled out the long knife at the waist of the armor with her backhand, and tapped Li Quan's neck with the handle, his body trembled a few times, and the eyes When it was dark, she staggered and passed out. Mo Xiaoran scanned around, and after confirming that there was no one there, she dragged Li Quan to the narrow gap on the ground and under the long corridor on both sides of the steps outside the imperial study room. Li Quan stuffed it in.

Clapping his hands, looking at the plaque with the words "Yushufang" hanging on the beam of the house, a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he took a step forward.

With bent fingers, he knocked on the closed door, "Your Majesty, my servant has something to ask for an audience."

The specially lowered voice was slightly hoarse, almost completely different from her original voice. No wonder Bai Zixu didn't hear it. He waved his hand: "Come in."

Mo Xiaoran lifted the heavy armor on her body, with a serious face, pushed open the door and walked in. Bai Zixu was buried in the dragon case, kept flipping through the memorial, saw Mo Xiaoran coming in without raising his head. Asked: "What's the matter?"

"Back to the emperor, this servant wants to talk to the emperor about the beheading of Prime Minister Mo Qing." Mo Xiaoran said slowly, word by word, like a thunderbolt. Hitting Bai Zixu's heart, he raised his head in astonishment, and saw Mo Xiaoran standing majestically in his imperial study in a uniform of the imperial guards!He also had a smiling expression on his face.

Bai Zixu's heart twitched, and his face darkened a little unconsciously, "I seem to have said that people in Fengqi Palace are not allowed to come out without my will. Those who disobey the order," he deliberately dragged out his voice, as if She wanted to see fear from Mo Xiaoran's face, but unfortunately he was doomed to be disappointed.

"Those who disobey the order will be beheaded, right?" Mo Xiaoran took the words directly, the corners of her mouth curved into a beautiful arc, and asked softly.

Bai Zixu's face changed suddenly, and he threw the imperial pen which he was reviewing the memorial on the table with a bang, the ink splashed everywhere, and a few drops fell on the memorial, quickly blurring into a small black spot.

"Queen! Aren't you afraid that I will punish you?" Bai Zixu asked angrily. Facing Mo Xiaoran, his anger seemed to never go out.

Mo Xiaoran picked her ears, and the smile in her eyes turned into a cold one in an instant, "Your Majesty, it seems that we should talk about business."

She deliberately bit down on the word business, and spoke extremely slowly, with every word cadenced.

"What can I talk to you about?" Bai Zixu asked in a cold voice, but when he met her cold gaze, he averted his eyes a little guilty. This woman does have an unusual aura, and Bai Zixu is cold His expression softened a little, he slowed down his voice, and looked at Mo Xiaoran: "If you came to talk to me about the prime minister, I can tell you directly, I can't take back the imperial decree."

Mo Xiaoran frowned slightly: "You know that my father is just a shield, the one who asked him to touch the white ink in front of all the officials is you, and the one who abandons him now is also you, Your Majesty, you are too good at it." Calculated." There was a hint of sarcasm in the tone.

Hearing this, Bai Zixu's face froze, "I never thought of abandoning him."

He thought he could eradicate Bai Mo in one fell swoop, but who would have expected that the 80 troops on the border would riot, marching northward and attacking the imperial city. In order to quell the fighting, he had no choice but to resort to this terrible policy.

"But the final result is indeed that you abandoned him. It's not enough to just let him go to jail. You also plan to behead him two days later. Your Majesty, have you forgotten that he has done a lot for you?" Mo Xiaoran Remind me, drink water without forgetting the source, although it is a bit ridiculous to express kindness to an emperor, but he can't cross the river and tear down the bridge, right?
Bai Zixu's five fingers clenched, and every word Mo Xiaoran said was just sprinkling salt on his unhealed wound, reminding him how incompetent and useless he was as an emperor. His eyes were full of coldness, he sat stiffly on the dragon chair, he didn't know what he was thinking, but the skin he could see was almost covered with blue veins, which looked extremely scary.

"Your Majesty, I can understand that you want to abandon him to protect yourself and the court." Mo Xiaoran slapped him, and was about to give him another sweet date. , and a way to save the prime minister's life?"

"What method?" Bai Zixu stared at Mo Xiaoran closely: "They presented the evidence that the prime minister bought and sold officials in front of all the officials. I have no other way."

"Evidence can be falsified." Mo Xiaoran reminded, but she was afraid that the evidence might be true. A bitter smile curled up at the corner of her mouth, and she shook her head, "I don't ask the emperor to release my father, only the emperor can give more." I have a little time, father has committed two major crimes, if he can be washed away, he can save his life."
