Chapter 698
"But you didn't expect Zhao Xiaojuan to be rescued by me in the end, did you?"

"That's right, your appearance made me readjust my plan. I told the four of Fan Datong to kidnap Zhao Daxiong's wife, let them threaten Zhao Daxiong's family, and let Zhao Daxiong's family drive Zhao Xiaojuan out of Zhao Daxiong. Home. In fact, I have long planned to sacrifice the four of Fan Datong to blame Zhao Guangjin. This opportunity is very rare. With the presence of the Duke Huguo, I will definitely be able to find Zhao Guangjin. I thought I did it flawlessly. I know that what I do is full of flaws."

Lin Butou said: "If it were me, Zhao Guangjin would be bruised and bruised by now. Fortunately, he is the Duke of the Protectorate. With such a complicated case, it took the Duke Protector less than two hours to solve the case."

Zhao Feihu was taken back to the yamen by Lin Butou, and Guo Qishuai announced a decree on the spot that if a woman becomes pregnant out of wedlock in the future, she should only be condemned morally and not burned to death at the stake.

Many villagers, especially women, clapped their hands and cheered.

Zhao Xiaojuan married Zhao Guangjin that night, and the two held a banquet for the whole village to attend.

After Guo Qishuai drank their wedding wine, he followed Eunuch Zhang back to the palace.

After returning to the palace, before he sat down, he heard something very angry.

His younger sister, Guo Pingping, was locked up by the emperor.

Guo Qi was so handsome that he wanted to lose his temper. Eunuch Zhang persuaded him, "Don't be angry, Lord Protector. We still don't know the truth of the matter. After we ask clearly, it won't be too late for Lord Protector to get angry again."

"I don't care who he is, if he dares to detain my sister, I will never spare him."

Guo Qishuai asked many people, many of whom said they did not know where Guo Pingping was being held.

He directly wanted to question Emperor Zhao Ming.

When he came to Emperor Zhao Ming's study, but Emperor Zhao Ming was not in the study, Guo Qishuai clenched his fists angrily.

Eunuch Zhang immediately said: "Duke Hu Guo, please calm down, please calm down, Hu Guo Gong, the emperor has just ascended the throne, and there are many things in the court that he can't handle in time. Now your sister must be involved in a lot of things. Only by finding out the truth , to be able to save your sister."

"My sister is innocent, she can't possibly harm the Empress Dowager."

Eunuch Zhang said: "The old slave also believes that your sister is innocent, and the emperor also likes your sister very much, he will not sit idly by."

Guo Qishuai asked many court ladies and eunuchs, and finally found out that the emperor was in the empress dowager's room.

Guo Qishuai rushed over immediately.

In front of the Empress Dowager's Hall of Mercy, two guards tried to prevent Guo Qishuai from entering, but Guo Qishuai didn't listen to them at all and beat them away.

Guo Qishuai flew to the Empress Dowager, looked at Emperor Zhao Ming who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "Your Majesty, where is my sister now?"

The queen mother slapped the table vigorously, and said: "Presumptuous, who are you? How dare you break into Ai's palace, come and arrest him."

A group of guards rushed in behind Guo Qishuai.

Those guards were all armed and majestic. However, when they arrived at the door, Guo Qishuai waved his sleeves, and all the guards flew out.

Guo Qishuai said: "I don't care whether you are the empress dowager or the emperor, please let my sister go right now, otherwise, within ten steps of this palace, I will make him bleed like a river."

As soon as Guo Qishuai finished speaking, an iron cage fell from his head.

After the iron cage covered Guo Qishuai, many guards surrounded him.

"Don't move, don't move, if you dare to move, we will kill you."

Guo Qishuai was very obedient, he really didn't move.

Emperor Zhao Ming said: "The Queen Mother, he is the Duke Protector. The child can become the emperor because of the Duke Protector's help. The child begged the Queen Mother to release the Duke Protector."

"Let him go? The emperor has to think carefully. This man is so powerful in martial arts. No one can subdue him. If he wants to support someone as emperor, it is not a matter of his words? Today, he can let you be the emperor. , Tomorrow, he can also let someone else be the emperor. The emperor must think clearly, this person has a high meritorious service and must be eliminated, so as to ensure that the emperor's country will last for thousands of years."

"Mother, Duke Protector has no intention of rebelling."

The Queen Mother sneered and said, "I think you are still too young. He didn't rebel? Look at what he said just now? He said that if we don't release his sister, he will make the whole palace bleed like a river." Listen, is this what a loyal minister should say? The emperor must not be soft-hearted, and must kill him today, otherwise, the emperor's world is in danger!"

Emperor Zhao Ming said: "Mother? The Duke Hu will not rebel, so I ask the Queen to hold you high and let the Duke go!"

"Emperor, the Queen Mother did all this for you. You are merciful, and the Queen Mother knows it, but for the sake of the Emperor's son's future, the Queen Mother can only be this villain."

When Guo Qishuai heard this, he was so angry that his stomach hurt, and he said, "My sister was also framed by you, right?"

"Why are you so arrogant?" The queen mother stared at Guo Qishuai and said, "You have been trapped by the black iron cage, now I let you live, you can live, let you die, you will die, so, I advise you to be honest Really, don't make unnecessary sacrifices."

"Hmph! It seems that you will let me go if I am obedient."

"You are right, even if you are very obedient, we will not let you go, because your status has already threatened my son's throne, so you must die."

"Since I am mortal, can the Queen Mother make me understand how you framed my sister?"

"Your sister brought me a cup of tea. There is poison in the tea, which was tested with silver needles. Your sister tried to kill me with poison. Of course, I can't spare her life."

"Such a low-level framing, you actually used it. This is called crime without excuse?"

"As long as you know this truth, do you want to die by yourself now or should I order you to be killed?"

Guo Qishuai looked at Emperor Zhao Ming and said, "Emperor Zhao Ming, what do you say?"

Emperor Zhao Ming said in a difficult way: "Mr. Protector, I will bury you generously. I promise you that as long as you die, I will treat your sister well."

"Is this the decision you made?"

"I am the king of a country. I do things and don't do things. There are many things I can't help myself. May the Lord Protector understand?"

"Understand? Of course I understand. When you were in Yangmei County, I shouldn't have saved you, and I shouldn't have helped you seize the throne. Is this what happened to me? Are you a little impatient?"

"Duke Protector, now that things have come to a point, just accept your fate. We will not embarrass your sister, but if you dare to resist, your sister will be killed immediately."

Guo Qishuai was furious, he glared at Emperor Zhao Ming, and said, "In my eyes, there is no such word as resignation."
