The emperor wanted to go to Yizhuang to pretend to be a dead body, which made all the ministers very anxious, and they all went to the palace together to protest and block, and even a few loyal and courageous old ministers wanted to replace their sons and servants as if they were sacrifices.However, despite their persuasion and persuasion, and tried their best, the emperor refused to enter, insisted on going his own way, and wanted to use his body as bait.

It's just bait, in order not to scare the snakes, this matter is kept quiet, everyone is so anxious that they scratch their hearts, but they want to shut their clamshell mouths tightly, and dare not say a word to people outside the palace, even if it is a pillow. The same is true for Bian Fa's wife, who suffocates him to death.

Bai Muyan and Ji Ran also felt that the emperor was too risky, after all, he was the king of a country, if something went wrong, the consequences would be disastrous.The soldiers at the border are still fighting with the enemy army, even if they are in a losing situation, they still hold on, but if the emperor's bait is really swallowed by fish and shrimp, then it's a fart, and it will all be over in one go.

The two also entered the palace to dissuade the emperor.

The emperor knew what they were coming for, but he didn't keep people from entering the door like he did to other ministers, but he also looked down at the memorial and ignored it, directly ignoring it.

Ji Ran and Bai Muyan looked at each other helplessly.

"Your Majesty, you are the Ninth Five-Year Supreme. If Yizhuang is the bait, just find a death row prisoner. There is really no need for you to risk yourself." Just this sentence, Bai Muyan has repeated it three times since they came in. up.

"Zhen, I've made up my mind." However, no matter how many times he said it, the emperor always said the same thing.

"Your Majesty." Ji Ran swallowed back the repetitive words that almost blurted out, "Shu Chen said something that shouldn't be said..."

"If you shouldn't say it, don't say it that time." Before Ji Ran finished speaking, the emperor stopped him coldly.

Ji Ran choked enough, and Bai Muyan said in unison, "Your Majesty..."

The emperor still didn't give them a chance to speak, "Retire."

Obviously, the emperor's attitude is really nothing to talk about.The two looked at each other and could only retreat first.

The emperor's attitude was firm, and the matter of Yizhuang pretending to be a corpse was basically settled, so there was no need to persuade him.The most urgent task at the moment can only start from the aspect of safety and strengthen protection, which is bound to protect the emperor comprehensively.

There is no need for Ji Ran to do this matter, Bai Muyan has to arrange it, so he didn't follow along and left the palace first.Compared with the emperor, he is now more worried about the situation on Lu Zhen's side. The more people and corpses are missing, the more intense the fighting situation there is, and the situation is serious. He can only hate that Wu Jiu is too evil.

Thinking all the way, Ji Ran couldn't help thinking of going out to meet Lu Zhen by using his body as bait.However, the emperor's plan is ahead, if he can capture Wu Jiu with one move to avoid accidents, he'd better not be impulsive, solve Wu Jiu, then he can naturally go to Lu Zhen.

The case of stealing corpses in Yizhuang has a time pattern, and every corpse disappears at midnight.

And the emperor's plan is scheduled to be carried out tonight.

The sunny days in the past few days seemed to be a sign of something. In the evening, it began to rain lightly. The rain was not heavy, but when night fell, puddles of various sizes had already accumulated on the street.

The gate of Yizhuang in the south of the city was crackled by the wind and rain, creaking and creaking as if it was overwhelmed, and it might fall down at any time.The two white lanterns at the door illuminated the surrounding area, and they were shaken by the wind and rain from time to time, making the white lanterns very scary.

In the quiet street, only the sound of raindrops splashing on the ground can be heard, no pedestrians or insects are heard, it is so quiet that there is no trace of human beings.

This is Yizhuang, and the living people think it is unlucky, and they rarely walk around during the day, let alone such a rainy night.Humpbacked Li has guarded Yizhuang for more than ten years, and he has long been accustomed to such a dead and quiet atmosphere. Yizhuang Yizhuang usually only sees popularity when the dead are sent or there are dead people for autopsy. Under normal circumstances, if it suddenly becomes lively, That's the big deal.

But during this period of time, because of the corpse theft case, the hunchbacked Li was also worried. Just because of this, he got up very hard at night.But usually I just go to the morgue to have a look, make sure there is nothing missing, and then go back to sleep.

The same is true today. After counting the number of corpses, the hunchbacked Li came out of the morgue, intending to go back to the next door to continue sleeping.However, as soon as he walked to the door next door with the oil lamp in hand, before he had time to push the door in, the door of Yizhuang was slammed with a bang. This movement made Hunchback Li almost jump up in fright until someone heard the news outside the door. After making sure it wasn't the corpse thief, he swallowed the heart that had jumped into his throat, and went over to open the door with the oil lamp in hand.

As soon as the gate opened, a group of yamen servants hurried in carrying a stretcher wrapped in white cloth.

"Oh, it's late at night, is someone dead again?" Humpbacked Li is used to seeing dead people, and these words have almost become his mantra for seeing dead people for more than ten years.

"Who died in the back alley of the brothel, and was reported by the watchman. The body will be put in the Yizhuang first, and the identity will be proved and claimed after the investigation." He was upset, and he didn't even have a good look at the hunchbacked Li.

The hunchback Li didn't care about it, and led him to the morgue cheerfully, but he was stunned when he glanced at the two people carrying the stretcher.

Do these two poor masters look unfamiliar?

But he didn't take it seriously, he just took it as a new recruit from the yamen, walked a few steps forward, unlocked the lock and pushed open the door of the morgue before the head catcher.

"The innermost coffin against the wall was just vacated yesterday, so let's put it there." Humpbacked Li didn't go in, but only helped people illuminate the door, pointing to a rotten wooden coffin in the innermost corner.

Several people listened to him, moved the body into the coffin, closed the coffin and left.

After sending off the official messenger, the hunchbacked Li went back to his room to sleep.

As soon as midnight arrived, Wu Jiu held the censer bell in his hand as if he had entered a deserted place, and flew majestically into the courtyard. He was dressed in a black robe and almost melted into the night, except for his eyes that were so bright.Listening to the hunchbacked Li Zhentian's loud snoring, the corner of his mouth curled up in a contemptuous arc, and he went forward and swung open the door of the morgue.

Almost at the first sight of entering the door, he locked the position against the wall inside.He hollowed out that coffin, and now it is covered with a new corpse. The new corpse is fresh and not as stiff as the old corpse. It is much more lethal when refined into a puppet. He likes the new corpse the most. .

Walking around the display coffin step by step, Wu Jiu went straight to the target coffin, and with a flick of his sleeve, the coffin lid slid halfway out.He lowered his head to look at the corpse. Tonight's night is not good and there is no moonlight to see it clearly, but judging from the figure, it should be a young corpse.

Satisfied, Wu Jiu pursed her lips, and stretched out her hand to grab the collar of the corpse in an attempt to pull it out, but she didn't want to be caught by a strong force as soon as she reached into the coffin.

not good!

Responding to being fooled, Wu Jiu's face changed suddenly, but before he could attack, the other party flew out of the coffin, grabbed his hand and turned over and pressed him into the coffin, while that person was pressing heavily on him .The censer was knocked to the ground while pulling, and only a bell was left in his hand. Just as he was about to attack, he was stiffened by a familiar sigh.

"Wang Jiu, Empress, you really deceived me so much!" In order to avoid Wu Jiu's counterattack, the emperor sealed Wu Jiu's acupoints, but did nothing, just hugged him tightly, "Why?"

In the darkness, Wu Jiu was silent and almost breathless. After a long while, he smiled sinisterly, "You are the king of Da Nan, and I am Hui Ge wizard. It's just a position. After so many years, the emperor should not You will still miss that Zhuyan prince Wang Jiu, right? If so, the Queen Mother is worthy..."

Before Wu Jiu finished speaking, the emperor grabbed the flesh of the carotid artery in his mouth as if venting his anger. His teeth were grinding, and it seemed that he would pierce the flesh and bite off his neck at any time.But the damn thing is still his sensitive spot, when he is caught by the other party, his conditioned reflex is to shudder, his scalp explodes, and a muffled moan escapes from his throat uncontrollably, and then he bites down angrily. lip.

In the darkness, Wu Jiu's gaze was full of the ferocity of a wild wolf, but it gradually became gloomy when he felt the moisture on his neck.

After the emperor asked why at the beginning, he didn't make a sound anymore, just holding the flesh of Wu Jiu's carotid artery in his mouth and weeping silently.At the beginning when he learned that his lover was put to death by poisoned wine by the Queen Mother, he was desperate and tortured by not being able to miss him. Now he is unbearable after learning the truth, like a blunt knife, cutting open his scarred flesh, and the pain is so painful that there is no place to make noise except tears , I don’t know what else to say.

What can be said?

As Wu Jiu said, the positions are different, that's all.

After thinking hard for many years, in the end, it was just a conspiracy and scam, how ridiculous and sad?Because, even if you know that everything stems from deception, you know that your deep affection is just your own sentimentality, you know that the other party is now cruelly killing your own people, and even wants to take your own country and even your own life, but you still want to let go. No more.

After a long time, the emperor loosened his teeth and raised his head from Wu Jiu's neck. He couldn't see clearly in the darkness, but he still stared at Wu Jiu deeply, and his whole body trembled when he touched Wu Jiu's cheek with his palm.

"If I'm not the emperor of Da Nan, it doesn't matter if this life is given to you." The emperor smiled without tears, "It doesn't matter if you are Wu Jiu or Wang Jiu, my queen or a wizard, you As long as you're still alive, that's fine."

Wu Jiu trembled all over, she obviously had a heart of stone, but now she seemed to be infected by the other party's tears, her heart swelled and hurt so badly that she didn't even have the courage to look at the emperor.Just when he was about to look away, his chin was grabbed by the other party, and then a kiss fell all over his face. The moment his lips touched, the first thing he tasted was not the other party's enthusiasm, but the salty and sour taste in his mouth. bitter.

"Xiao Jiu." After giving up the kiss, the emperor stroked Wu Jiu's face again, his movements were gentle, but his tone was very cold, "You can't escape. In this life, even if I die, I will drag you to hell with me!"

With a loud sound from the emperor, a group of officers and soldiers rushed in, and in the blink of an eye, they surrounded the coffin with no escape.

Wu Jiu's ability, he could have used his acupoints to counter the emperor, but he was confused by the other party and lost the opportunity. Now he is not panicked when he is pulled out of the coffin and tied up, the corner of his mouth is always hooked into a smile. Not reaching the bottom of the eyes, looking at the emperor, but not looking at the emperor.

The emperor didn't look at him, straightened his robes, "Go back to the palace." After saying that, he passed the crowd expressionlessly and walked towards the door.

A group of officers and soldiers escorted Wu Jiu and followed immediately.

A group of people walked out of the morgue in a mighty manner. The hunchbacked Li Gang, who was awakened by the noise, staggered in fright as soon as he went out.However, after waiting for a group of officers and soldiers to escort him away, he didn't wake up. He went to the morgue to check the number in a daze. I was startled, and then I remembered the group of officers and soldiers, and when I rolled my eyes, I vaguely understood it.
