The charcoal ashes and sheep blood on the floor of Gong Ziguang's bedroom were cleaned up, and Gong Ziguang also changed into clean clothes.This noble young man in his early twenties, with a pale face and slightly blue lips, was lying lifelessly under the couch.Wei Shen lowered his head and held Young Master Guang's hand tightly, sitting down on the low wooden bench next to the couch.Zheng Yuming stared blankly at Young Master Guang who was not out of danger.

With a sound of 'squeak', Wei Ren and Chu Chaohui pushed the door open and walked in.Wei Ren first went to the couch to look at his nephew, and found that his chest was still heaving, and his raised heart slightly let go.

"Brother! The results of the interrogation came out. It was that bitch Yi Ji who ordered someone to kill the young master."

Wei Shen raised his head sharply, staring straight at his cousin: "Is Yi Ji instigated that bitch?"

"That's right, artist Xin and his two servants were assigned by Yi Ji to sneak into the son's side five years ago."

"I didn't even notice that bitch stayed with the young master for five years." Wei Shen slapped himself hard, and now he has endless regrets.

"Big brother" Wei Ren saw Wei Shen slap him so that the corner of his mouth was bleeding, and wanted to comfort him, but seeing his nephew on the bed, his life was hanging by a thread. It was Wei Ren who was in charge of investigating artist Xin's life experience back then, and the information on artist Xin's life experience was flawless. Wei Shen just read the investigation data and felt that artist Xin was harmless, so he let the prince favor him.

"Madam Wei and Young Master Ming also died under this heartbroken grass." Zheng Yuming who had been silent all this time said suddenly, since Chu Chaohui and Wei Ren entered the room, he did not glance at Chu Zhaohui.

"What? Madam and Ming were also killed by Yi Ji?" Wei Shen and Wei Ren exclaimed at the same time.Zheng Yuming's quiet voice exploded in the room like thunder.

Wei Shen even rushed from the couch to Zheng Yuming's side: "Director Zheng, please explain clearly."

"The heartbroken grass is highly poisonous to humans and most livestock. Only pigs and sheep eat it. Not only is it not poisonous, but it also has the effect of making their hair shiny, fattening and preventing plague. Back then, Yiji raised piglets to make food. The pet has a purpose, and the little pig was prepared by her to clear up the suspicion of poisoning Mrs. Wei and Young Master Ming."

When Zheng Yuming first heard that a young woman's pet was a dirty pig, he thought it was weird. Now that Yiji had repeated her old tricks, Zheng Yuming realized through the association of the characteristics of the heartbroken grass that Mrs. Wei and Gong Ziming were also the same 11 years ago. Die under this poisonous weed.

Zheng Yuming's deduction made Wei Shen and Wei Ren's eyes turn red with anger. If Mrs. Wei hadn't been murdered by Yi Ji, it is very likely that Mrs. Wei would be put in the back seat. One of them will be the heir to the throne.

"Yi Ji, this woman is plotting every step of the way!" Chu Zhaohui pursed his lips and frowned slightly. Now that he heard Zheng Yuming's deduction, he realized that he underestimated Yi Ji. How can I prove my innocence? When I proved it, I wiped out all the evidence of the crime. The little pig ate up all the leftovers. King Wu couldn't find anything to investigate.

Such a scheming woman must act carefully.The current King Wu Palace may not be the situation that Chu Chaohui envisioned. The situation in the capital will only be very favorable for Yi Ji, and Yi Ji's plot may have succeeded.

"Zheng Qing Zheng Qing" Young Master Guang suddenly made a weak voice.

Young Master Guang woke up while everyone was discussing, he struggled to sit up, Wei Shen quickly ran over to help Young Master Guang half up: "Young Master! Young Master! How do you feel?"

"Zheng Qing, come here!" Young Master Guang leaned in Wei Shen's arms, raised his finger to Zheng Yuming: "What did you say just now? Was it Yiji or Yiji who poisoned my concubine mother and brother Ming?"

Zheng Yuming held Young Master Guang's excited and weak hand to calm his emotions: "Young Master, take care of your health. You need to avenge the enmity between Madam and Young Master Ming."

"This poisonous woman, she really did it back then." Young Master Guang woke up from a coma, just in time to hear Zheng Yuming's deduction, his original suspicion was true.The mind that had just woken up was greatly stimulated. "Yi Ji! I will never die with you!"

Young Master Guang yelled, spit out a mouthful of blood and passed out.

After the sun went down, the four major gates of King Wu's capital raised the suspension bridge on time, and the gates were closed.Pedestrians on Wangcheng Avenue returned to their homes one after another. After dark, the streets and alleys in Wangdu City began to be empty.

Bei Sima took his guards and rode to inspect the north and east gates under his jurisdiction. After the King of Wu dispatched the tigers of Nan Sima and Dong Sima to the border to stop the Tang army, he and the west gates were responsible for the safety of the two city gates. Each Sima is in charge of one.

Bei Sima circled the North City Gate and the East City Gate, and ordered his men to be more vigilant. Now the capital's military strength is more than half empty, and Huben only has the ability to defend. If foreign enemies invade, they can only burn the beacon to attract the surrounding lords Come to escort the king.

Just as Bei Sima was about to go back to his residence to rest, a small group of people galloped up the road in the city.The leading person is wearing brown clothes, holding a brocade book high.

"Bei Sima is in front? Come and listen to the call!" The man in brown and yellow clothes was a waiter in the palace of King Wu. He got off his horse in front of Bei Sima, holding up the imperial edict and shouting.

Bei Sima hurriedly got off his horse and knelt down on one leg, waiting for the waiter to read the edict of King Wu.

"Your Majesty has ordered Bei Sima to quickly enter the palace to discuss matters." After the waiter read out the contents of the edict, he handed the edict to Bei Sima for verification.

Bei Sima took the brocade cloth with both hands, and found that the content on it was the same as what the waiter read out, and the seal on it was also the jade seal of King Wu.

"This yellow robe, what is your majesty calling for urgently now?" The palace attendant's clothes are brown and yellow, so people use the yellow robe as the official name for the attendant.

"It's an urgent report from the north. Your Majesty called the important officials of the royal court into the palace to discuss. Lord Sima follow me to the palace." The waiter answered Bei Sima's question respectfully.

"Who are you summoning?" Bei Sima put the imperial edict in his arms and mounted his horse again.

The waiter glanced at the twenty or so personal guards behind Bei Sima, and said calmly, "There are also the crown prince, Wenzai, Doctor Jiang and the general Hussars."

When Bei Sima heard this, he felt that the matter that King Wu summoned them to discuss was very important, just like the summoning to the border of Tang State.

"Please Huangyi lead the way."

"Here!" There were six palace tigers who came together with Huang Yi to call. After hearing Bei Sima's order, he turned his horse's head and walked in front to open the way for Bei Sima. A group of more than 30 people drove towards the palace in a mighty manner.

When Bei Sima received the imperial edict from the King of Wu, three attendants from the Prince's Mansion, Wenzai's Mansion, and Hushi General's Mansion also brought the palace tiger to summon him. up the palace.

General Hussar's stomach was not feeling well after dinner this evening, and as soon as he entered the locker room to relieve himself, his servants came to inform King Wu of his summons.The great general of the hussars didn't care about the dull pain in his stomach, so he hurriedly got dressed and went to the hall to listen to the announcement.

"General, please follow the villain into the palace quickly." The yellow-clothed waiter's face was a little pale. After he read out the imperial edict and handed it to the Hushi general, he kept urging him.

"Mmm..." Hussar General was about to agree, but suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his stomach, and he quickly changed his words: "Huang Yi, please wait a moment, I will follow you into the palace after the old man arranges to get off the carriage."

After the Hushi General finished speaking, without waiting for the waiter to answer, he took the edict and hurried into the inner room, and went straight to the dressing room to relieve himself.

Seeing this, the waiter standing in the Hussar General's hall turned paler and began to sweat finely on his forehead.

Although the General Hussars is nearly seventy years old, his love for martial arts has not diminished. The layout of the mansion is full of military spirit, and the servants are tall and strong, all of them are Lianjiazi. The halls on both sides are lined with various weapons. , under the candlelight, reflecting the cold light, people in the hall, only feel surrounded by murderous aura.

The great general of hussars entered the inner room for a long time and did not come out. The waiters waiting in the hall were sweating more and more on their faces. He looked at the few tigers he had brought in the yard outside the hall, and then at the sturdy ones in the hall. The domestic servant trembled slightly.

After the General Hussars relieved his hands twice, he felt no more pain in his stomach, so he thought of following the waiter into the palace to meet the King of Wu in the hall.

"Stay, General!" Hussar General had just entered the corridor, when a person rushed out from under the corridor.

"Oh, it's Yan Sheren. If you have something to do, let's wait until the general sees the king and comes back."

This Sheren surnamed Yan is a retainer raised by General Hussars. He usually has nothing to do except eating and drinking. The General Hussars' family has a big business. Although he doesn't dislike such diners who eat and drink, he just likes them. Not much, for the sake of his own reputation, General Hushi didn't kick Yan Sheren out of the house, and raised Yan Sheren for six years for nothing.

"The general is not allowed to go to the palace! There is deceit!" Yan Sheren walked up to the general and blocked the general's way.

Yan Sheren was about thirty years old, usually slovenly, dressed casually, wearing a pair of tattered cattail shoes, and smelled like alcohol.This desolate appearance made the general hussars frown slightly.

"Yan Sheren has too much wine, go back to the dormitory and rest, don't miss the old man's business." Hushi General said while beckoning the servants around him to pull the drunk man away.

"Yan is not drunk. If the general doesn't believe it, you can secretly observe the expression of the summoned waiter. The waiter's expression is different!" Yan Sheren became anxious. After looking at it, the waiter was trembling slightly.

After listening to Yan Sheren's description of the waiter's demeanor, the General Hushi hurriedly walked to the lattice window behind the hall to observe. Sure enough, the waiter in yellow was wiping the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve. It was already the end of August. The temperature has already dropped, and the body has already started to wear jackets, why is this waiter sweating like summer?

When the waiter saw the Hushi General coming in, his face relaxed: "General, quickly follow the villain into the palace to meet the King, don't keep the King waiting for a long time,"

The general of the hussars stared at the waiter, and suddenly yelled: "Bold bitch! How dare you pretend, take me down!"

After the general Hussars shouted loudly, the palace tiger in the courtyard was thrown to the ground by the servants of the general's mansion.

"You dare to resist the edict." The waiter's legs were weak, and he pointed at the trembling hand of the Hussar General.

The waiter couldn't even justify his accusations, which further showed that there was a problem.

"Who on earth issued this edict? What's wrong with your majesty?" The Hussar General grabbed the waiter's clothes by the chest and lifted him up from the ground.

Although the General Hussars is old, the breeze is still the same as before. His snow-white eyebrows are erected, his eyes are bulging, and he looks very scary.

"Great general, please spare me! It's none of the villain's business, the villain just obeys orders." This waiter relied on his close relationship with Yi Ji in the palace, and always raised eyebrows at other waiters, which made people feel fierce, but in fact it was A softie, who was so frightened by the Hussar General, lost two of the three souls, and poured out the truth of the inner palace on the spot. It turned out that it was not King Wu who passed the edict, but Yi Ji. King Wu ordered the Wu army After going to the border to stop Tang's invasion, she fell ill and has been in a coma for several days. Everything in the palace is under Yi Ji's control, including the tiger talisman and jade seal.

"Why hasn't the old guy come yet?"

Yi Ji looked impatient. She was wearing a black cloak and stood outside a bedroom. Inside the bedroom was a pile of corpses. The blood flowed like rivers on the ground. Prince Zhao lay on his back in the pool of blood, his eyes protruding, and he was dying.

Next to Prince Zhao's body were Bei Sima and Wen Zai lying lifeless.Bei Sima had the most wounds on his body. Without a weapon, he slapped two royal tigers to death with his palm.

The guards brought by the three into the palace had also been hacked to death by the palace tiger.

"It should be soon. The most daring waiter is going to be summoned. There will be no mistakes." Dr. Jiang was dressed in armor and had a sharp sword hanging from his waist.

"Is the follow-up arrangement ready? Bei Sima's men must take over first, and the prince's mansion must be searched, and no one can be missed." Yi Ji covered her nose and mouth with her cuff, and the smell of blood made her uncomfortable.

"Don't worry, ma'am, after Bei Sima and his attendants left, I sent a reliable person with an edict to take over the North Gate. The Prince's Mansion was surrounded as soon as the Prince entered the palace, and the mansion is already being searched." Dr. Jiang said. Eight thousand private soldiers have all secretly entered the capital. In today's capital, even if Bei Sima's troops resist, they can't resist, because Bei Sima has only three thousand troops. Facing Dr. Jiang's eight thousand private soldiers, Xi Sima With 3000 troops and [-] tiger guards in the palace, Bei Sima's people could only be captured without a fight.

"Don't wait for that old guy to enter the palace before you start. Now you take someone to directly copy that old guy's house. Just like the Prince's Mansion, don't keep a single one."

Yi Ji looked at the hourglass, and impatiently continued to write with the Hussar General. In her eyes, the Hussar General had no soldiers, just like a tiger without teeth.Dealing with an old guy with only tiger skin is not light and delicate.

Thinking that the nobles in Wu State who despised her would be prostrate at the soles of their feet, Yi Ji couldn't help laughing out comfortably.
