Yangyue

Seeing the person in front of him, Mukhba Khan widened his eyes, stared at Henry Zhang for a long time, his eyes swept across his face and waist, and then he looked up to the sky and laughed: "What is the meaning of the emperor? Could it be that he thinks that the Central Plains The warrior is not as strong as I am, so I admit defeat, so I present it as a beauty?"

The generals of Mukhba's tribe also burst out laughing, discussing in nonsense, and their voices were intimate.

Qi Zhu, who was sitting watching the play under the stage, raised his glass and covered his lips with a low laugh when he heard the words, he was afraid that there was another good show to watch.

Khan touched his chin, stared at Henry Zhang narrowly, and didn't care about the ugly Qiangbeard concubines sitting under the stage, and said: "King Ben Khan has never had a Central Plains woman, so that's fine, you do it My concubine..."

Xiao Yangyue interrupted coldly: "Xiao Yangyue, the owner of the Duckweed Pavilion, see Khan."

It was clearly a man's voice, and Mukhba Khan's voice stopped abruptly. He was stunned for a while, and finally spat violently, smashed the big saber in his hand to the ground, and cursed: "Bah! It's a man!"

Khan stared at Henry Zhang, even knowing that Henry Zhang was a man, he still couldn't take his eyes off his alluring appearance, and shouted rudely: "Look at how weak you are, even my Qianghu tribe Women are not as good, they are really beyond their control!"

Before Khan finished speaking, Henry Zhang had already made a move.

Although Henry Zhang was carrying a sword, he did not pull it out, but used the scabbard as a weapon to collide with Khan's saber.

Just this collision, Khan's complexion turned pale, Henry Zhang's arm was as steady as a rock, and his face was calm and unwavering, but Khan felt that half of his arm was numb, and the saber in his hand was almost about to fall off. go.

Seeing that Henry Zhang refused to even draw his sword, Mu Heba Khan was so angry that his face turned purple, roared, and swung his knife vigorously to slash forward. Dodging, he raised his palm and hit Khan on the chest.

All the officials in the audience saw that Mukhba Khan fell from the competition platform and hit the ground heavily, "Wow" spit out a mouthful of blood, the blade of the saber in his hand was rolled up, and there was a bruised palm print on his bare chest.

All the generals of Mu Heba's tribe were dumbstruck immediately, obviously Xiao Yangyue had won, but none of the generals of the imperial court made a sound, as if the owner of the duckweed pavilion was not someone they could talk about, and there was a moment of silence in Qianming hall , A needle can be heard.

Just now, Xiao Yangyue had withdrawn most of his strength, he lowered his eyes and glanced at the Khan under the stage, let out a cold hum, turned and walked towards his seat.

What broke the silence in the hall was Mukhba Khan Ketun's screams. She shouted "King" in nonsense, and her face turned pale with fright.

The emperor said indifferently: "Come here, pass the imperial doctor to Khan to see. My generals don't know how to attack, so I hope Khan will forgive me."

Mukhba Khan seemed to have been greatly humiliated, trembling with anger, staring at Henry Zhang's back, with a fierce look in his eyes, suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, shouted with a rough throat, turned over from the ground and stood up Standing up, using the knife as an arrow, he threw the saber in his hand towards Henry Zhangyue.

The blade glowing with silver light stabbed straight at Henry Zhang in an instant, Henry Zhang turned around to avoid the blade, Khan turned over to the stage again, and pulled out several crescent-shaped palm-length animal teeth from his waist , as a flying knife, shot towards Henry Zhang at high speed.

Xiao Yangyue swept away with the scabbard, and an animal tooth grazed the top of his hair, hooking the hairpin on his hair, and the cloisonné gemstone hairpin was caught on the ground in an instant, and slid to the edge of the table, on the hairpin Cracks appeared in the pearls and jades.

Seeing the hair tin being knocked down, Henry Zhang's heart tightened, and he fell to the edge of the stage and wanted to pick it up, but Mukhba Khan flew forward and slashed with a horizontal knife, Henry Zhang had no choice but to back down and land.

Khan stepped on the hairpin with his foot. He was tall and heavy, and the hairpin was crushed immediately, leaving only smooth fragments on the ground.

Mukhba Khan yelled: "This king didn't lose! Come again!"

Xiao Yangyue looked at the fragments of hair tin, as if she had been pierced by a thin needle, there was an indistinct pain in her heart, her hand holding the sword gradually tightened, and a cold light appeared in her eyes.

He pulled out his sword unconsciously, feeling a little angry in his heart. After several moves, Mukhba Khan was defeated again, most of his teeth were knocked out, and he spat out on the ground mixed with blood.

Henry Zhang fell in front of him, pointing the tip of the sword at Khan's chin. Finally, he frowned fiercely, retracted his sword, turned around and jumped off the high platform, and returned to his seat.

Mukhba Khan's arrogance had already vented like a wilted eggplant. He was helped to the palace by the imperial physician sent by the emperor. His teeth were broken and he couldn't even speak clearly. The generals around him didn't dare Noisy, all can only lower their heads resentfully.

The emperor: "Khan, it's getting late, the martial arts contest is over, enjoy my Central Plains dance and opera."

Henry Zhang, who returned to his seat, touched the hem of his clothes and sat down. He picked up an unused silver chopsticks with hollowed-out patterns and pointed tips that had been placed by the table, and used the chopsticks as hairpins to casually tie up the scattered strands of hair. .

Not far away, Qi Zhu narrowed his eyes slightly. While listening to the opera troupe on stage, he raised his hand and called a little eunuch who was serving around.

The little eunuch leaned over and asked, "What orders does Lord Hou have?"

"Bring me a pen and paper."

"Yes."

The little eunuch quickly presented a pair of pen and paper, Qi Zhu spread out the paper, wrote two simple lines on the paper, folded it up and handed it to the little eunuch, saying: "Just now I watched the master of the pavilion compete with the Khan, and I feel very sad. I admire you, so I recited a poem and gave it to the Lord Pavilion Master, and I would like to trouble you to send it quietly for me."

The little eunuch served tea on weekdays, and it was the first time he got such an errand, so he quickly agreed, put the paper carefully and properly into his sleeve, and took advantage of the opportunity of serving the dishes to come to Henry Zhang's side, and pressed the letter paper on the bottom of the bowl , whispered to Henry Zhangyue: "Master Pavilion Master, there is a letter written to you by Lord Hou just now at the bottom of the bowl, please read it."

Seeing that there was really a folded piece of letter paper at the bottom of the bowl, Henry Zhang raised his head slightly in surprise, and looked towards Qi Zhu's seat, who was also looking at him, slightly raising his lips and chuckling.

Henry Zhang lowered his head and opened the letter paper, the handwriting on the letter was scribbled and domineering, very wanton and flamboyant: "Don't feel bad, I will give you a new set another day."

Henry Zhang pursed his lips slightly, folded the letter paper again, and put it in his pocket, but couldn't help thinking in his heart, how did Lord Hou see it?

The banquet lasted until Haishi, and all the ministers respectfully sent the emperor and queen back to the palace, and each dispersed.Henry Zhang rode away from the side entrance of the palace, but after walking out of the palace gate a few steps, he saw the carriage of the Hou Mansion parked outside.

Henry Zhang tightened the reins and stopped, Qi Zhu opened the car curtain, and said to Henry Zhang: "Did Khan Mukhba look for you?"

Henry Zhang was riding on the horse, looking down at Qi Zhu: "What does he want from me?"

"I saw that Khan was staring at you when you arrived." Qi Zhu said, "And you defeated him in the martial arts competition. I thought he would find a reason to come to you."

Henry Zhang didn't care much and said: "He is injured, he must not have the skill."

Qi Zhu narrowed his eyes slightly, and chuckled lightly: "I think this Mukhba Khan is very interesting. Letting you be his concubine in front of civil and military officials, your limelight will be even better than before."

Henry Zhang frowned and said: "Back then?"

Qi Zhu sighed: "Poor virtuous king who has passed away, the people who have been thinking about him until death don't remember him anymore."

Henry Zhangyue said displeased: "What does his wishful thinking have to do with me?"

Wishful thinking is indeed a great suffering in the world. Who wants to be that kind of wishful thinking person?

At this moment, a person on a fast horse quickly crossed the palace gate and rushed towards this side. The rider was Bai Yu, who eagerly grabbed the reins, jumped off the horse, and before he had time to salute, he said: "Mr. , something happened in the palace, the emperor hastily called you back to the palace!"

Just a quarter of an hour before the banquet ended, a major event happened in the palace.

After the emperor returned to the palace, he rested in a concubine's palace. Because he had listened to the opera for a long time, he asked the imperial dining room to prepare some snacks for midnight snacks.The concubine was considerate of the emperor, so she personally served a bowl of snow lotus and white fungus soup, and tasted hot and cold before giving it to the emperor.

But it was this bowl of white fungus soup, after the concubine drank it, she vomited blood in a few breaths, and fell to the ground and died within a few moments.

The emperor has ordered the entire palace to be sealed off, and all the servants in the concubine's palace, as well as the palace people in charge of today's meals in the imperial dining room, were all imprisoned in the criminal department.

There is a banquet in the palace today, and the imperial dining room has newly deployed a lot of manpower. It is a time when there are so many people, and I never thought that such a thing would happen!

When Xiao Yangyue heard it, it was too late to say goodbye to Qi Zhu, and immediately turned back to the palace with Bai Yu, Qi Zhu was silent for a moment, and also told the boy who was driving to turn back to the palace.

When Henry Zhang came to the concubine's palace, the emperor was sitting in the side hall, and the imperial physician in the palace was checking the meals on the table one by one.

An imperial doctor who inspected the food came forward and reported: "Your Majesty, I have checked all these meals one by one, but... I am incompetent, and I really can't find out what the poison is. The tableware in the palace is made of silver. The poison can be screened out, but there is no abnormality in the silverware, and the remaining common poisons have also been tested with specific methods one by one, and they are all useless!"

The emperor sat on the soft couch, with a gloomy and gloomy look in his eyes, he stood up, without looking at the leftovers on the table, and coldly shouted to Henry Zhang: "Xiao Aiqing, I will go back to the queen's palace first , I leave this to you, and within three days, tell me the result."

"Yes."

The dead concubine was titled Jingpin, and her body was neatly placed on the bed in the house, with blood around her lips.

Xiao Yangyue walked to Jingpin's body and stretched out her hand towards her face. The inner eunuch at the side was shocked when he saw this, and immediately said: "My lord, although the jade body of the empress has passed away, you are a foreigner, so you should not touch it at will. touch!"

Xiao Yangyue was most annoyed by these meaningless rules in the palace, she only glanced at the eunuch coldly, and only stared at the eunuch so dumbly that she dared not speak.

Henry Zhang tore off a curtain, and through the curtain, he pinched Jingbi's lips and looked at it, but in just a quarter of an hour, Jingbi's tongue and teeth were festered, like a puddle of meat mud stuffed into the mouth , The smell of blood is tangy.

Henry Zhang has never seen any kind of poison that can only ulcerate the lips and teeth, and this ulceration does not seem to be from the inside out, but rather like being eaten by a living thing.

Henry Zhang dropped the curtain and came to the dining table. The food on the table had been inspected by the imperial physician. He picked up the cold white fungus soup and sniffed it lightly, but he didn't smell anything unusual.

Henry Zhangyue asked the eunuch on the side: "Even if the emperor stays in the concubine's palace on weekdays, is the meal prepared by the imperial dining room?"

The eunuch said timidly: "Returning to my lord, because of the assassination a year ago, the empress has ordered that all concubines except those in her own palace are not allowed to cook for the emperor in the kitchen of her own palace. Therefore, even if you go to the concubine's palace, The food is also prepared by the Imperial Dining Room, and it will never pass through the hands of other palace people on the way to deliver the food."

Henry Zhang stared and pondered, so, it is indeed the palace servants of the imperial dining room who are the most suspicious.

It's just that this kind of unusual poison can be obtained casually by people in the palace?

At this moment, a rapid scream suddenly sounded from behind the crowd, and a young eunuch who had come to carry Jing's body out did not know what he saw, and fell to the ground in fright, shaking like chaff.

Henry Zhangyue turned her head, and saw clusters of colorless and transparent bugs like maggots emerging out of thin air from the bloody mouth of Jingpin's corpse, the bugs rushed out from between the lips and teeth, the scene was amazing Abnormal.

As for the curtain that was thrown on the ground by Henry Zhang just now, wherever the blood from Concubine Jing's mouth was stained, densely packed worms suddenly appeared.
