Funing Hall

How to write the letter to His Majesty Beijing, even a person like Huang Shu finds it very difficult.

But this letter must be sent out quickly, who doesn't know the status of the Eleven Lord in His Majesty?He also brought a few disciples of his own family with him, and they also frowned.At the end of the discussion, they just asked him to write the letter and send it to Beijing as soon as possible, for fear that there would be a big mistake if it was too late.

Huang Shu, who has always been extremely calm, was so urged that he almost picked up the inkstone and smashed someone. Didn't he know the rush?

This letter is really difficult to write!

Huang Shu had no choice, first he wrote a bunch of nonsense "Wishing Your Majesty the peace and blessings of Your Majesty", and finally tore it all up again, finally sank down, and wrote a few words: Lord Eleven is dead, lost in fire.Then he frowned, folded the letter, stuffed it into an envelope, sent someone back to Beijing to deliver the letter, and escorted the "corpse" of Mr. Eleven back to Beijing.

As soon as the person who delivered the letter and the "corpse" left, Huang Shu immediately stood up and slapped the table: "Take Yizhou City tonight!"

"My lord, the common people haven't been dismissed yet. Early this morning, Long Guangcheng hanged a hundred or so common people in the city above the city gate..." Someone said cautiously.

Huang Shu thought to himself, Zhao Shiqi has been tossed and gone, if he can't take down Yizhou City quickly, what's the use of him personally coming?If you don't take Yizhou City, what is the death of Lord Eleven?

Huang Shu usually seems to have a very bad temper, but in fact he understands the ways of the world very well, but he has the capital to not care about it.He has been the magistrate of Yizhou for eight years, and he is very familiar with how many roads can lead to Yizhou City, how many flat grounds outside the city gate can be used to set up formations, and so on.

Regardless of meals and rest, he immediately asked people to gather all the soldiers, and he went to encourage the soldiers himself.

For soldiers, being loyal to His Majesty and the royal family is the most important thing.

Lord Eleven is His Majesty's imperial heir, who is not angry that he was burned to death, or by his own father?They stood at the gate of the city, but they were afraid that the people in the city would not be able to kill them, and they had been patient for a long time.At this time, Huang Shu didn't say a few words, everyone applauded, wishing to rush in immediately with shield and gun in hand.

After all, Yizhou is in the southwest, and there are not as many flat lands outside the city as in the north, so the number of formations that can be formed is limited.

After Huang Shu finished encouraging, he discussed in detail with several generals how to attack the city at night.

The people Huang Shu sent back to the capital went directly by water, without daring to stop for a moment on the road. They used official ships, and the forbidden soldiers cleared the way. No one would have dared to stop them.However, they encountered many obstacles along the way. From time to time, ships came up to collide with each other, and even conflicts occurred.The opponent didn't hurt anyone, but only wanted to rob Zhao Shiqi. As forbidden soldiers, they couldn't kill people indiscriminately.

Besides, when it comes to this, who would dare to have an accident?The forbidden soldiers tried their best to protect Eleven Lord, and the opponent's skills were very good.On the side of the forbidden soldiers, after all, they are on the official ship, so they are very eye-catching, so they can't go too far.The two sides fought, and seeing that they were about to enter Kaifeng City, the forbidden soldiers still firmly protected "Zhao Shiqi".

Zhao Cong trusted Huang Shu very much, and Huang Shu walked all the way to Yizhou, delivering letters to him and reporting the situation to him.

This made him more at ease, and he firmly believed that Zhao Shiqi would be able to protect himself well.People who knew to hide in the palace at a young age shouldn't be so stupid.He first tried to comfort himself by analyzing what kind of trick Zhao Shiqi was trying to make. He was much more comforted, and he really believed it.

On this day, he was urging Zhao Zongning to go back: "Brother is all well, you can go back and rest at ease. Your legs are fine."

Zhao Zongning didn't dare to mention Zhao Shiqi these days, seeing that his brother was indeed much calmer, but his heart was still not at ease.She was not as dazed as Zhao Cong, she was so dazed that she comforted herself, no matter how comforted she was, she believed it.She is always awake, and since she is sober, she must be mentally prepared for all consequences.

She didn't want to go back, but also wanted to take advantage of his recovery, and wanted to talk about Mrs. Tian's affairs.

She poured a cup of almond tea for Zhao Cong, and said softly, "I'll leave the palace when brother's complexion improves."

Zhao Cong wanted to persuade him again, when Fu Lu came in to deliver a letter to him, he took it and saw that it was a letter from Duan Pingran.He tore it open to see, and Duan Pingran assured him that he would never interfere with the affairs of Long Guangcheng and others.If they asked Dali for help, he would never answer, and even offered to send troops if necessary.

When Zhao Cong refused to allow Fan and others of the five surnames to come to Beijing to pay tribute, he had already planned to move the Southwest.

But who could have known in advance that during the Dragon Boat Festival, Zhao Congde fled there.

It is a good thing for Dali not to get involved, Zhao Cong put down the letter and closed his eyes to rest.Since he came back from Taiyuan, he hasn't been able to take a good rest and injured his leg. His spirit is indeed not good, and his complexion is not good-looking.

Perhaps it was just after receiving Duan Pingran's letter, the almond tea that Zhao Zongning personally poured for him was milder, and after drinking it, his whole body warmed up.After Zhao Cong closed his eyes, he gradually became sleepy and fell into a light sleep.

Zhao Zongning got up quietly, walked out of the inner room, and was about to call someone to see Mrs. Tian when Qian Yuemo came first.

"How is Your Majesty?" She saluted and asked.

"It's so easy to get a good night's sleep." Zhao Zongning sighed, now she and Qian Yuemo are getting more and more familiar with each other, this is really her own family.

It was rare for Qian Yuemo not to care about Zhao Zongning's tone, she had something on her mind.

Others don't know, but she knows that when they first entered the palace, in the Hall of Baoci, the Empress Dowager gave them Jue Si's tea soup.She didn't drink it because she knew that there was something strange in the tea soup, and she couldn't tell the other three people.If there are no special circumstances, the other three should all drink.

How did Lady Tian get pregnant?

Unless Tian Niangzi also knew that there was something wrong with the tea soup.

It can be seen from this that Lady Tian is not as dull as she usually seems.

It's just that this child really belongs to His Majesty?

Qian Yuemo is often in the palace and knows a lot more than Zhao Zongning. His Majesty has never even touched her, so would he touch Lady Tian?

Is Lady Tian still being framed?

She guessed in every possible way.

She felt that His Majesty knew it well.She is in charge of the harem, and one carelessness is a serious crime. She dare not not ask about the issue of heirs.It's just that with His Majesty's current appearance, how should she ask?

She sighed secretly, chatted with Zhao Zongning casually, Che Xia hurried in outside, and whispered into Zhao Zongning's ear.Zhao Zongning didn't know what he heard, and immediately widened his eyes, stood up, and was about to walk out.She stopped again, turned around and whispered to Qian Yuemo: "If brother wakes up, tell me to go back to the princess mansion to get some things."

After that, without waiting for Qian Yuemo to ask any more questions, she left immediately.

Zhao Zongning asked Che Xia while walking: "What do you mean Xiao Shiyi is dead?!" Etiquette was engraved in her heart, her steps were not big, but they were extremely fast.

Che Xia stepped up to follow, lowered her head to hide her crying expression, and said hastily: "My servant is not very clear, Zhang Juan did not dare to enter the palace to meet His Majesty, and went to the Princess Mansion."

Zhao Zongning panicked and hurried back to the Princess Mansion after leaving the palace.

Zhang Juan is the chief minister of the palace, and even Zhao Cong's confidant, but he dared not meet His Majesty directly when encountering such a thing.Seeing Zhao Zongning, he immediately knelt down and explained the matter, and then asked her: "Princess, what should I do?"

Before Zhao Zongning recovered from his words, Zhang Juan called her "Princess" again. Zhao Zongning recovered, grabbed the handle of the high chair, and asked with rounded eyes, "Is that person sure it's Little Eleven?"

"Mr. Huang Shu and Mr. Huang personally inspected it. It is indeed Mr. Eleven."

Zhao Zongning's face turned pale in an instant, but he still remembered to say: "Who would the forbidden soldiers dare to kill?! What's the use of Little Eleven's body? They all want to grab it?!"

Zhang Juan's face was full of bitterness: "I don't know either."

Zhao Zongning immediately got up and walked around the room anxiously.

As soon as he was about to enter the Kaifeng mansion, those forbidden soldiers carrying corpses and letters still couldn't stop them, so Mu Fu simply went all out.If it can be delayed for a day, it will be a day, and His Majesty Jingzhong must not be convinced that their lord is indeed dead.It only took a day or two to take down Yizhou City and deal with Zhao Congde. After the deal was over, he rushed back quickly and nothing happened.

Taking advantage of them relaxing their vigilance, and there was fog on the water at night, Mu Fu led some people to cover their faces, swam into the boat secretly, and capsized a boat full of people.Most of the people brought by Mu Fu were bandits before they were recruited by Zhao Shiqi.Although they didn't kill anyone this time, they just knocked them out with a punch, and their skills were extremely agile.

After being brought down, they snatched the body and ran away.

Yuan also wanted to find Huang Shu's personal letter, but he couldn't find it.They dug a hole in the side of the boat, pushed the boat to shallow water, and checked the people on board again to make sure that they were indeed unconscious.It can also be seen that the ship has begun to sink, and all the people on board have been submerged by the Bian River for most of their bodies. No matter what the letter is, it should be soaked and useless.

It was also dawn, and they hurried away.

Unexpectedly, there was one person who didn't faint, and endured until they left. He swam up from the water, pulled the brothers to the shore again, and rushed back to Beijing.

Unfortunately, this person also went to Taiyuan with Zhao Cong, and was one of Zhao Cong's personal guards.Huang Shu trusted him and sent him to take the lead to bring the man back to Kaifeng Mansion.

Zhao Zongning asked to see this person, his face was pale, he seemed to have suffered some injuries on his head, and he was about to kneel when he came in, Zhao Zongning quickly stopped him and asked him carefully.

The personal guard knew everything, Zhao Zongning asked clearly, and thought, Xiao Shiyi might really be gone.

But how do I tell my brother about this? !

She continued to circle around the room anxiously, the guard thought for a moment, then said weakly: "Princess, I still have something to report."

"Say."

The personal guard told about Mu Fu.

After hearing this, Zhao Zongning fell silent.He saved his elder brother's life in Taiyuan. According to himself, it was a eunuch from Korea. Now he doesn't hesitate to kill the forbidden soldiers, but also to take Xiao Shiyi's body? !

What game is this? !

Zhao Zongning's mind was in a mess, but no matter how chaotic it was, what she missed most was Zhao Cong.

Brother hasn't had a good night's sleep for a long time, Duan Pingran made sure not to have trouble with him today, so it was hard for him to sleep for a while.

If you tell your brother at this time, Xiao Shiyi is gone?

Zhao Zongning's face was still pale, even she couldn't bear it, how could my brother bear it?

She immediately turned around and said word by word: "Hidden this beforehand, Your Majesty really can't bear this blow."

Zhang's family members and personal guards all nodded. They were always with His Majesty. They remembered clearly how crazy His Majesty was when the Eleven Lord "died" five years ago.

At that time, His Majesty said: In life, you must see people, and in death, you must see corpses.

Now he is really dead, and there is really a corpse.

It's just that the body was snatched away.

Zhao Zongning's mind was both chaotic and clear. No one knew whether Xiao Shiyi had anything to do with the so-called Korean eunuch.The country of the Song Dynasty is already very meticulous, and maybe it is another person who wants to take the opportunity to make trouble.

The matter of Xiaoshi must be reported to my brother, but it is definitely not at this time.

Xiao Shiyi's body must also be found!

Zhao Zongning turned around and said solemnly: "Go and find Xiao Shishi's body quickly, and keep it hidden."

Zhang Juan took the order, turned around and left with his personal guards.

As soon as they left, Zhao Zongning realized that his whole body was weak, and he was about to collapse. Che Xia supported her and asked anxiously: "Princess, what should I do?"

Zhao Zongning didn't know what to do, but she still wanted to see Zhao Shiqi's body first to be sure, and then she could tell her brother.It's just that her body was very soft, and she could no longer regain her senses while leaning against Che Xia's arms.When Sun Zhuyun heard that she was going back to the princess mansion, he specially came to see her, seeing her like this, he took good care of her and didn't talk about it.

Zhao Zongning stayed at home for a day, then managed to recover to normal, and went to the palace to meet Zhao Cong again.

Zhang Juan and others are still looking for Zhao Shiqi outside, but there are some things that can't be covered with paper. The sinking boat on the bank of the Bian River and the fainted forbidden soldiers are all suspicious.Zhao Zongning became more and more anxious, knowing that it might become harder to hide this matter.

This matter has not been hidden after all.

But it wasn't what Zhao Zongning and the others said.

His Majesty was told by the money merchant.

It is said that Qian Shang heard about this from Huang Shu and rushed to the palace to see His Majesty.

Zhao Congzheng was puzzled, there were not many important matters in the court recently, the biggest one was the Southwest matter, he was injured, and he had not been to the court for many days, nor had he been to the Chongzheng Hall.

What is the business of money merchants?

What the money merchant reported back was indeed an important matter.

When Zhao Cong heard this, he was stunned for a while, then asked stupidly, "Is there a corpse?"

Qian Shang was full of sorrow: "Exactly, Mr. Huang snatched it back from Zhao Congde and others, and ordered people to send it to Beijing. I'm afraid it's time to arrive."

Zhao Cong was stunned for a moment, then got up from the couch, not knowing what to do.

When the rest of the people heard this, they were all stupid. Fu Lu was even more stupid than Zhao Cong, and forgot to help him for a while.

Zhao Cong's foot injury is still not healed, just stood up, then fell down again.

After falling down like this, I didn't wake up again.
