Baochai is a mermaid

Chapter 63 Assassinated

The medicine that the immortal master gave the emperor to make alchemy was killed.

At the scene of the tragic murder lay the body of an exquisite horse. The neck of the horse was pierced by a sharp dagger, and the owner of that dagger was Wei Chi.

There was blood and gray brains everywhere.

On the other hand, by the Rao River, a few feet away from the Albizia julibrissin tree, in a swamp of reeds taller than a person, there were several men in black floating here and there, and they were already dead when they were discovered.

These people didn't have any scars on their bodies, and there were no signs of poisoning, but their faces were distorted and their deaths were miserable.

On the other side of the Albizia julibrissin tree was a piece of wormwood grass. In the depths of the grass lay a strange-looking boy of a different race. He had already died, and his death was exactly the same as that of the men in black.

The difference is that he is holding a bamboo flute tightly in his hand.

The soldiers and horses of the five cities did not dare to be negligent, and immediately reported to heaven what had happened in the royal enclosure. The emperor turned pale after hearing this, and after waiting for a long time, he said in a trembling voice: "Bring me the son of An Guo Gong! Enter the palace immediately!"

Wei Chi killed the medicine guide that the immortal master used to make alchemy for the emperor, causing great disaster. The servant in charge of summoning went to the mansion of Duke Anguo immediately. The eldest princess turned pale with fright when he heard that, but Duke Anguo was as stable as Mount Tai, so he ordered someone to go to Duke Anguo's mansion. hold back.

Where can I find it?

This time the emperor was so anxious that he spat out a mouthful of blood and asked the guards from Wucheng Bingma Si, Imperial Army, Shuntian Mansion and Anguo Mansion to search together, even if they turned the capital over, they also wanted to find the guards.

The emperor didn't sleep all night, but he couldn't wait for the good news.

But at this time, the immortal master's elixir happened to be used up.

"The same goes for the immortal master. Knowing that Prince Zhongshun's mansion is going to hold a polo match in the paddock, he should move the medicine out in advance. Even if it is difficult to move, he should take strict care of it."

The emperor was seriously ill, and the queen stayed in the Hall of Mental Cultivation to take care of the sick. Seeing that the emperor was seriously ill, she was happy in her heart, but she still pretended to be sad, and complained to the immortal master: "If you die with medicine, you can take care of it again. Once you hurt Chi'er, how can you be good?"

The capital has been searched several times, but Wei Chi has not been found yet, so it must be a sign of bad luck.

I just hate that the soldiers and beast masters she sent out are all dead, no one can tell her what happened at that time, whether Wei Chi is dead or not.

There was no body of Wei Chi at the scene, but the three tiger and wolf eagles were not vegetarians. Even if Wei Chi was highly skilled in martial arts, they would still be injured if they did not die.

But the assassins who were ambushing at the gate of the palace, the gates of An Guogong's mansion and the princess's mansion didn't see Wei Chi either.

Can a living person disappear for nothing?

Without the suppression of the elixir, the emperor felt uncomfortable all over, had a splitting headache, and just wanted to lie down quietly by himself, but the empress was particularly ignorant today, talking about sickness, but doing nothing, just knowing that it was making noise in his ears .

"Enough!" The emperor's cold voice forcibly pulled back the queen's drifting thoughts, and almost growled, "Now I think about caring about Chi'er, what did you do?"

As soon as the queen came back to her senses, she was taken aback. She was upset for a while and couldn't manage her expression well. She frowned and asked, "I don't know what I did wrong?"

Her mistake was that she didn't kill the bastard Wei Chi earlier.

Because the empress had nothing to say, she was always gentle and careless in front of the emperor, and she never said a single hard word, which made the emperor forget that the empress was once a woman with a strong temperament.

During the Nine Kings Rebellion, the queen was only his concubine. She was pregnant with their first child when the rebels discovered it. It had been more than five months. The rebels arrested her and tortured her until she had a miscarriage. He didn't tell the secret way he hid.

He just saved his life.

When he led people to rescue her from the claws of the rebels, she was already too thin to be human. She hugged him and cried bitterly, saying that she had not protected their child well.

Obviously he failed to protect her and the child.

At that time, he was heartbroken and guilty, and he swore in front of her that no matter what she would become in the future, she would be his wife, the only woman in his life, and he would never betray her.

If you violate this oath, you will be seriously ill and lose your children and grandchildren.

Unexpectedly, God's will tricks people, a few years later, he became the emperor, and she injured her mother's palace due to a miscarriage and could no longer have children.

In the first few years, no matter how much the civil and military officials tried to persuade him, he kept his promise not to be drafted, not to accept concubines, and slept next to the queen every night.

Until Yujia personally conquered southern Xinjiang, he was trapped in the poisonous miasma and was rescued by the saint of the witch clan.

He had never seen such a beautiful and pure girl in his life, he was fascinated by her, and forgot his promise to the queen.

It seems that from then on, the queen suddenly became virtuous and magnanimous, accepting the advice of civil and military officials to recruit concubines for him to fill the harem. After Wei Chi was born, the draft every three years was shortened to one year.

But there were three thousand beauties in the harem, but no son was born.

Some things just can't stand scrutiny. He used to be busy with government affairs, so he didn't have time to scrutinize.

Thinking about it now is terrifying.

"Why can't the three thousand beauties give birth to a prince, but Wei Chi can grow up safely? Your Majesty, think about it carefully." The eldest princess's usual words of slandering the queen suddenly came to mind, causing the emperor to shudder and look at the queen His gaze became sharper.

The emperor snorted coldly: "Wei Chi's marriage, I remember talking about it with Empress Xian, I wonder if there is any progress?"

If he hadn't gritted his teeth back then, he would have sacrificed himself and the child in his stomach instead of betraying him. The wormwood on this man's grave has been withered for a few times, but he still has his life to show off in front of her?

At this time, he turned over old accounts with her!

The queen was furious, thinking that the emperor's time was running out anyway, Wei Chi's life and death were uncertain, and the imperial army and the soldiers of the five cities were in the hands of her brother and brother-in-law...

wrong!

She seems to have missed something!

It is said that when Wei Chi left the polo field, Xue Baoer was with him. Now that something happened, Wei Chi could not see anyone alive or dead. Where did Xue Baoer go?

Could it be...

The queen suddenly raised her eyes, as if remembering something, then lowered her eyes obediently, got up and knelt beside the bed and replied: "It's the concubine who is not doing her job well, please punish me."

Seeing that the empress gave in, although the emperor had doubts in his heart, it was not easy to pursue anything. Hearing the empress said again: "But there is a reason for the incident. The concubine didn't know whether to tell the emperor to know, so it has been delayed until now."

"Say." The emperor was exhausted physically and mentally at this time, and there was impatience in his voice.

The queen raised the corners of her lips unobtrusively: "Chi'er seems to have taken a fancy to Xue Zanshan who is next to An Ning when he was studying in the palace school. A few days ago, he snatched him back to the Duke of An's mansion, causing a commotion in the whole city. Thinking about it, Xue Zanshan is someone close to Princess Anning, if something like this happens, neither the princess nor Princess Zhongshun will feel better, so after thinking about it, I decided to wait until the limelight passes before proposing marriage."

"Oh? There is such a thing?" The emperor asked knowingly, "Then what is the origin of the Xue family?"

The emperor knew about this, but Wei Chi always did bad things, and there were bigger things than this, so he didn't take it to heart.

Now that the queen mentioned it, I had to ask.

The queen pondered: "It's the imperial merchant."

The emperor snorted, but still didn't care: "It's rare that Chi'er likes it. Since you have robbed him, just give him a title and stay with him."

Wei Chi was already 15 years old, and he should have had one or two concubines or concubines by his side.

The queen sneered in her heart, if Princess Anning knew that Wei Chi had taken Xue Zanshan beside her as a treasure before marrying her, wouldn't she feel disgusted like swallowing a fly?

If Princess Zhongshun knew about it, would she agree to this marriage?

If the marriage fails, there will inevitably be a gap between An Guogong's Mansion and Zhongshun Prince's Mansion, this is the result she most wants to see.

After all, the emperor is a man, and he doesn't understand the twists and turns in a woman's heart.

"There should be someone around Chi'er who knows the cold and the hot." The queen smiled virtuously, "The concubine will send someone to tell the eldest princess to find out, and when Chi'er comes back safely, I will take care of this matter first. He suppressed the shock, and then the concubine went to Prince Zhongshun's mansion to propose marriage."

Doesn't the eldest princess like to dig holes for her, so she pulls her to jump down together to see who falls worse.

"The virtuous queen, get up and talk." Seeing that the queen was thinking about everything for the guard, and thoughtful, the emperor felt that he was sick and overthinking.

As soon as the queen got up, she saw Fu Quanhai, the head of the Qianqing Palace, walked in with a smile and reported: "My lord, empress, the prince of An Guogong has been found!"

really!

The queen frowned secretly, is Wei Chi okay?

impossible!

Bewitched by the Gu bell, and besieged by three adult tiger wolf eagles, even if Meng Rang, the great elder of the Wu clan, could not retreat completely, one of them would be seriously injured.

But the wrinkles on Fuquan Hai's face disappeared.

If Wei Chi was seriously injured, even if someone found him, who would dare to laugh in front of the emperor?

Soon the emperor asked for her: "Where is the person? Is he injured?"

Fu Quanhai hurriedly said: "He is at Xue's house, he only suffered a little injury, and there is nothing serious."

"The Xue family? Which Xue family?" The emperor only felt that the surname Xue was familiar.

"That's...that's..." It took Fu Quanhai a long time to remember how to introduce to the emperor, "Do you still remember that there is a Zanshan surnamed Xue next to Princess Anning? It is the family of Xue Zanshan."

No wonder it sounded familiar, didn't the queen mention it just now, she was the merchant girl that Wei Chi liked.

The emperor couldn't help frowning slightly, causing him to be frightened all night, turning the whole capital upside down.

Fortunately, he went to pick up girls!

"How did you get hurt?" the emperor thought, if the sleeping woman got hurt, he would have to be punished to kneel in the Buddhist hall.

Kneel for two nights!

The emperor was still ill, Fu Quanhai didn't want to say it at first, but the emperor didn't dare not to say it when he asked: "The news was sent by the government of An Guo. It was said that the son was assassinated in the royal paddock and passed out. He happened to be rescued by the head of the Xue family. He was treated in time and only suffered minor injuries. At that time, the Patriarch of the Xue family felt that the royal enclosure was too chaotic, and he was afraid that someone would take advantage of the chaos to harm the prince, so he quietly sent the prince to the Xue family to recuperate in the Xue family carriage without alarming others."

As he spoke, he looked up at the emperor, and Fu Quanhai said anxiously: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the prince has woken up, and his arm is slightly scratched. Now he has been taken back to the Duke's mansion by An Guogong, and the imperial doctor is also on his way to the mansion. gone."

Didn't the Wucheng Bingma Si say that Wei Chi killed three tiger wolf eagles and then disappeared? How could there be an assassination?
