Reborn from the bottom of the coffin, the miracle doctor and the ugly concubine fight against the wo

The captain of the guard led his men to search the palace until the sky turned white. No suspects were found, and he went to find Sule Kundu to return to his life dejectedly.

Sulekun didn't believe the search results, just as he didn't believe Chu Zhao would look at the moon in the middle of the night.

But if he couldn't find anyone, he had no choice but to order strict guarding inside and outside the palace. No one was allowed to come or go at will without his permission.

He was more concerned about the war on the front lines than a suspicion without solid evidence.

After hearing that Dayan's army had broken through another pass, he went to Chu Zhao's room again, forcibly cut off a lock of Chu Zhao's hair, and sent it to the front line along with Chu Zhao's original clothes.

At the same time, he brought a message to Xiao Chi - if he dared to take a step forward, he could not guarantee whether the next delivery would be fingers or heads.

Xiao Chi received the hair and clothes and had to suspend the attack.

He was not sure if the hair belonged to Chu Zhao, but after Wang Baobao identified the clothes, he was sure that they were worn by Chu Zhao.

The reason why Sulekundu did not threaten Xiao Chi with this move from the beginning was because he had confidence in his country's army and believed that they were fighting at home and had the right time and place, so they would not lose no matter what.

But he underestimated Xiao Chi's ability, underestimated a man's determination to see his sweetheart, and underestimated the power of longing after 200 years.

Seeing that the war did not develop as he expected, he had to use Chu Zhao as a bargaining chip to force Xiao Chi to cease the war.

For the sake of Chu Zhao's safety, Xiao Chi did not dare to start a war rashly, so he had to stay in a city he had just conquered and think of a solution.

After the Xirong Palace strengthened its defense, it was no longer convenient for Xu Hui to enter, and Chu Zhao completely cut off contact with the outside world.

Now, she can only hope that Xu Hui can complete the task she assigned as soon as possible.

She did not want to stay in her room all the time, and she obtained from Sulekundu the right to take a short walk in and around the palace after each meal.

Although there were more than a dozen guards following her every time, she never tired of it.

The next night, Chu Zhao was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. Suddenly he heard a slight noise on the roof, like something pulling at the tiles.

She sat up, not daring to light the lamp, and looked up in the moonlight.

The scratching sound lasted for a moment, and a hole suddenly appeared on the roof. Looking out from the hole, one could see the stars embedded in the night sky.

Then, a bird came in from the hole and flew towards her with fluttering wings.

"Oh my god, Marshal Xiao..." Chu Zhao whispered and hurriedly stretched out his hand to it.

Marshal Xiao swooped down and landed on her arm.

"Marshal, I knew you could do it." Chu Zhao rubbed his little head in surprise and said, "I go out for a walk several times a day, just hoping that you can find where I live, and you really didn't disappoint me."

Marshal Xiao nuzzled Chu Zhao's face as an answer.

Chu Zhao smoothed its fur again and asked it: "Did you think of coming in from the roof because you couldn't get close to me? How did you get the tiles open?"

Marshal Xiao flew down from her body and landed on the book desk. He picked up a book in his mouth and placed it gently next to her.

"Oh, it turns out you picked up the tiles with your mouth. You are really awesome." Chu Zhao gave him a thumbs up.

Marshal Xiao didn't understand the meaning of being awesome, but he knew that his thumb showed appreciation. He flapped his wings proudly, raised one foot, and told Chu Zhao that he had a letter tied to his foot.

Chu Zhao couldn't help but want to laugh, but he didn't dare to laugh out loud. It was very hard to hold it in.

The letter was written by Xiao Chi, telling Chu Zhao that he had temporarily stopped attacking for her safety, and asked Chu Zhao what was going on here.

Time was urgent, and he was afraid that the letter would be intercepted, so he didn't dare to write too much. At the end of the letter, he asked Chu Zhao to calm down and put safety first and wait for him to think of a solution.

Chu Zhao wrote back to him, asking him not to start another war for the time being, but to send some soldiers to quietly lurk at several key points entering the royal city. Once they found a team transporting grain into the city, they would burn the grain as soon as possible.

Marshal Xiao reluctantly said goodbye to Chu Zhao, got out of the hole again, and carefully took the tiles back to their original places.

Chu Zhao couldn't help but admire its wisdom which was different from ordinary birds, and said to himself: "If you were not a bird, I would fall in love with you."

Marshal Xiao brought the letter back to Xiao Chi. Although Xiao Chi didn't know what Chu Zhao wanted, he obeyed her instructions unconditionally.

Sule Kundu learned that Xiao Chi had stopped the attack and knew that his strategy was working, so he thought about cutting off one of Chu Zhao's fingers to force Xiao Chi's army to withdraw from Xirong.

However, before he could take action, that night, many places in the city suddenly caught fire at the same time, and the flames soaring into the sky illuminated the entire royal city as bright as day.

People woke up from their deep sleep and were frightened out of their wits by the sudden fire.

After a night of frantic rescue efforts, the fires were put out one after another until the next morning.

After the danger was over, everyone was shocked to find that the fire places were all large and small granaries, including the treasury granaries.

In other words, overnight, [-]% of the food rations for the entire city were gone, and the remaining [-]% was what each household had left.

Food is the most basic need for people's survival. It is indispensable every day. Now the whole city's food is almost cut off. How can it not make people panic?

All of a sudden, officials came into the palace to meet the emperor and asked the King of Xirong to order grain from nearby cities to meet their urgent needs. The wealthy merchants in the city also began to think of ways to adjust grain from granaries outside the city.

However, what they didn't expect was that the food sent from other places was robbed and burned before it arrived at the royal city.

The superiors fell into a greater panic. In order to avoid starving to death, they secretly ordered their men to go to people's homes to grab food.

At first, one person did this, and slowly, two people, three people, a group of people, and more people began to join this predatory operation of the jungle.

The unarmed people had no ability to resist the robbers who suddenly broke into their homes, and could only watch helplessly as the only food in their homes was robbed.

Some resisters who were unwilling to give in would be severely injured or even killed.

Such a mutiny aroused the indignation of the people throughout the city, who united one after another and launched a counterattack against the superior officials and wealthy households.

The royal city instantly turned into a chaotic and tragic Shura field.

Things happened so quickly and so strangely that Sulekun knew what was going on without even thinking about it, and rushed to Chu Zhao's room angrily.

"Is it you, is it you?" He was angrier than ever before, grabbing Chu Zhao's neck and pushing her down on the bed, "I told you not to play tricks, but you, damn woman, have repeatedly The king’s words fell on deaf ears, do you think that the king really does not dare to kill you?”

"If you wanted to kill, you should have done it earlier. It's a pity that you were hesitant and missed the best opportunity." Chu Zhao's face turned red when he pinched him, but his tone was very calm.

Seeing that she had no intention of denying it, Sulekun made sarcastic remarks and became even more angry: "Damn woman, I will kill you now."

"Don't you want to know how I did it?" Chu Zhao said, "I was in the palace, but I burned all your food overnight. Aren't you curious about how I did it?"

Of course Sulekundu was curious, he hated it to death, and he was also curious to death, because he really couldn't figure out how this woman did it.

"Say." He let go of Chu Zhao's neck, pulled her up, and then put the knife on her neck, "Stop trying to play any tricks, I can chop off your head at any time."

Chu Zhao was holding a knife, but he didn't panic at all. Instead, he looked at him calmly with a smile: "I said, you have missed the best opportunity to kill me. Now, the only one who can save you is me, I, Chu Zhao, the regent of Dayan, is your savior of Xirong."
