The happy life of a prodigal

The old emperor should be regarded as his biggest backer in this world. If he collapsed, he might have to leave the capital and find another place.

Otherwise, those who have become enemies with him will be able to line up from the front of Fangfu to the gate of the city.

And... the most important thing is that the old emperor, apart from being nagging, is pretty good.

Fang Xiu didn't want to see such a person disappear suddenly.

Chapter 558 King Ning's comeback

In the next second, he reacted abruptly.

If the old emperor is fine, isn't it the Fang family who is in trouble?

Could it be that what I just said has come true?

Fang Xiu raised his eyes, looked at Liu Qing, and was about to ask.

I heard her say: "He was just imprisoned."

captivity?

Both Fang Xiu and Zhao Yan were taken aback.

There are so many masters in the palace, even if all the masters in the world add up, they may not be able to capture the palace without a steady stream of cannon fodder.

Who on earth has the ability to imprison the old emperor.

Thinking of this, Fang Xiu frowned slightly, looked at Liu Qing, and blurted out: "It's King Ning!"

"Brother Ning?"

Zhao Yan next to her was startled when she heard this, and subconsciously murmured.

"It's him."

Liu Qing nodded, without so many twists and turns, and said very straightforwardly: "The emperor wants to send King Ning to the southeast Daojiu Fan. When he summoned King Ning, King Ning used Gu insects on him."

Gu worm...

Gu bug again...

When Fang Xiu heard this, he finally remembered.

When detoxifying King Kang before, I heard Liu Cheng mention that the master in the palace who is best at the way of poisonous Gu is not in the capital for some reason, and will not be back soon.

In other words, the only unprotected place around Emperor Chu is the poisonous Gu!

However, ordinary Poison Gu Masters are not too strong in martial arts, so it is impossible to quietly hide from the Grand Master in the palace and enter the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Except... King Ning.

In this way, it makes sense.

No wonder, such a big thing happened in the capital, but there is no news from the Central Plains Road. It turns out that the instigator of all this is King Ning!

"How do you know so clearly?"

After listening to Liu Qing's words, Zhao Yan seemed to think of something, raised her eyes and looked at her.

Liu Qing looked at Zhao Yan, without any fluctuation in her eyes, and said lightly: "I was by the emperor's side at that time."

When Zhao Yan heard this, she really wanted to ask her a question, "Since this is the case, why didn't you, who is good at the way of poisonous Gu, not help you?" '.

Before he opened his mouth, he thought of Liu Qing's life experience, and thought that the one who made the move was Brother Ning, whom no one would be too wary of, and stopped immediately.

Fang Xiu sighed, and said: "Your Majesty is in King Ning's hands, so there should be no danger of his life in a short time.

We still have enough time to think about how to rescue His Majesty. "

Liu Qing sat beside Fang Xiu, picked up the teacup on the table tremblingly with her injured hand, took a sip, and didn't answer.

At this time, Zhao Yan stood up and said in a firm tone: "I want to go back, I want to see Brother Ning!"

"Don't make trouble."

She just opened her mouth, and before she finished speaking, Fang Xiu pushed her back.

Don't look at how strong this girl was just now, but no matter how old she is, compared to those old foxes, her heart is still much purer.

In this battle for the throne, throughout the ages, there has been no distinction between brothers, father and son.

The incidents of fratricide can be found everywhere in the history books.

Now that King Ning has made up his mind to 'rebel' and coerce the emperor to order the princes, how can she, a little princess, be able to control her?

When they were young, they may not have this concept.

King Ning is still her brother Ning, and King Kang is still her brother Kang.

However, now that the situation has come to an end, there is no brother Huang, only enemies!

Fang Xiu didn't even need to think about it.

As long as Zhao Yan returns to the capital, there will be an oral order from the old emperor immediately, the imperial decree is not impossible, lock her in the princess mansion, don't even think about it.

King Ning, Fang Xiu is quite familiar with it.

His heart is like a sesame seed. For example, this time, even though he was not in the capital, the first thing he did after seizing power was to send heavy troops to surround Fangfu.

If it weren't for Liu Qing, I really don't know what would have happened in the end.

Thinking of this, Fang Xiu raised his eyes, glanced at Liu Qing, and said solemnly, "Thank you this time."

Hearing this, Liu Qing hesitated for a moment, but said nothing, only said: "Duke Wei Guo has replaced the Duke of England, and is in charge of the Qinjun Mansion.

It is a foregone conclusion that King Ning will take the throne.

The emperor is in his hands, no matter what he does, it is righteous. "

Zhao Yan looked at Liu Qing, thought for a while, and said, "It's impossible for him to do this, he doesn't have the qualifications.

As long as the father does not show his face, the civil and military officials will definitely feel suspicious after a long time.

It is impossible for King Ning to plant poisonous Gu on every subject! "

Hearing this, Liu Qing glanced at Zhao Yan, her expression was very indifferent, as if she didn't care about anything, and she said lightly: "You don't need to plant seeds for everyone, you just need to control the three bachelors in the cabinet, and the rest The subordinates will be dealt with by the Secret Service Division."

After Zhao Yan heard this, she was slightly taken aback, and sat on the chair, as if she had lost her mind.

He knew that what Liu Qing said was right, as long as King Ning controlled the cabinet, he would control the entire court.

Even if some people are dissatisfied and weak, they will not be able to cause any disturbances.

That is to say...

King Ning has actually successfully ascended the throne!

"how so......"

In just a few hours, Zhao Yan's mood fluctuated several times, and at this moment, she was already a little numb.

Seeing this scene, Fang Xiu felt a little distressed, held her hand, and said, "Don't worry, no matter what time or what happens, I will still be by your side."

When Zhao Yan heard Fang Xiu's voice, she seemed to think of something, and the expression on her face changed instantly, as if a drowning person grabbed the last straw, hugged his arm, and said, "Fang Xiu, you will rescue the father." yes, right?

I know that you can do anything, and you can do what you promised! "

"Of course...it's just that this incident happened a little suddenly. If you want to rescue His Majesty, you need to give me some time to prepare..."

Fang Xiu said this to a large extent to comfort Zhao Yan.

Even he had to admit that King Ning's turnaround was almost perfect.

Originally, he had lost the capital to compete for the crown prince, and was most likely to be sent to a small town to waste his life.

It is even impossible to want to do this, the biggest possibility is that after a period of time, because of the 'acclimatization', he will get sick and die.

This period of time may be several months or several years, depending on when Kang Wang ascended the throne.

But......

Faced with such a situation, he turned back abruptly, not only controlled the emperor, but also won't be discovered in a short time.

The price paid is just to bear some infamy for a period of time.

For King Ning, what is this infamy?

Since getting to know Fang Xiu, he has long since lost his reputation in the capital.

Especially when Fang Xiu caught him colluding with the Qiyan Department in the Grassland, the title 'King Ning' was already equivalent to 'rotten eggs' in the eyes of the people in the capital.

Fang Xiu comforted Zhao Yan while thinking about the countermeasures, and said, "In a short time, King Ning will not do anything to your father. We still have a long time to think..."

Chapter 559 Questions and Answers under the Moon

Same inn, same location.

Fang Xiu sat there, looking at the sumptuous meal in front of him, but he didn't have the slightest appetite.

Zhao Yan had already gone back to the room to rest, but her crying and almost desperate expression kept appearing in front of his eyes.

In fact, even without Zhao Yan's request, he would definitely rescue Chu Huang.

However, because of Zhao Yan, Fang Xiu felt that he was under more pressure.

At the dinner table, Fang Ru was just an emotionless eating machine, and she was pretending to care about Fang Xiu.

In the blink of an eye, a dish of sweet and sour carp attracted her attention.

Xiu'er also didn't have a good appetite due to the exhaustion of traveling and traveling, so she just ate some light dishes.

It was rare to see Liu Qing, who was also sitting at the dining table, with her usual indifferent expression.

"Brother, don't think about it. Saving the emperor is such a big matter that you can't figure it out in a while. Let's eat first."

When Fang Ru ate the third steamed bun, she finally remembered that she still had a brother-in-law.

She looked at Fang Xiu and said softly.

Fang Xiu glanced at her, but shook his head lightly, and said, "Don't talk while eating."

"..."

If other people said so, Fang Ru would have passed through three times in a row with quality and directly defeated the opponent's psychological defense.

But facing Fangxiu...

She didn't lose her temper at all, she just nodded obediently.

Seeing her like this, those who didn't know really thought she was some kind of lady.

After eating, Fang Xiu left the inn, went outside by himself, and took a walk against the moonlight.

Linze Mansion can be regarded as the largest prefectural city in North Central Plains, even so, it cannot compare with the state capitals of the two Jiangnan provinces.

Therefore, there is a curfew at night.

Of course, the so-called curfew is only aimed at ordinary people.

Fang Xiu like this, even if the inspectors saw it, they just panicked and thought that the inspector had come to inspect.

Without industrial pollution, the night sky in this world is very bright. Just looking up, you can see the bright moonlight and bright stars.

Fang Xiu walked aimlessly in this city of Linze Prefecture, which could be called a big city with only a hundred thousand people.

Gradually, light footsteps came from behind.

Fang Xiu turned around and looked at the person coming.

Relatively wordless...

The atmosphere of silence lasted for about a minute, and finally Fang Xiu spoke first: "Did you plant the Gu worms on the emperor?"

Liu Qing also looked at Fang Xiu, the depths of her eyes were black, like a black hole, making it difficult to see clearly.

"No."

Her answer was crisp.

When Fang Xiu heard this voice, the scene from a few months ago involuntarily appeared in his mind.

At that time, Liu Qing failed to "assassinate" herself and was imprisoned in the backyard. She could only eat one meal a day, her face was yellow and emaciated, and she looked like a walking dead.

Fang Xiu has always been unable to see through what kind of person Liu Qing is.
