Chapter 555

The prince looked at King Qi's back, sneered, and turned to walk into the corridor.

At the end of the corridor, a dress is looming.

"Queen, I've seen it. There are indeed ginseng in the box." The prince bowed.

Empress Cao hummed, "That's fine."

The crown prince was puzzled and said: "What does the queen mother suspect? Could it be that you suspect that Concubine Qing will collude with King Qi?"

"Emperor, be careful, it's always right."

"It's just that the queen mother has always taught her sons and ministers not to be suspicious of people, and not to be suspicious of people? Since you put Concubine Qing by father's side, why should you guard against her?"

The queen turned around slowly and walked forward, "Does your father like Concubine Qing?"

"I like it, of course I like it."

"Since your father likes her, it means that she has a certain weight in your father's heart, and may influence your father's decision, and will spy a lot of news from your father, others don't know If Concubine Qing has a heart of betrayal and leaks the news, it will hinder the formation of my troops."

The prince groaned, "I see."

Empress Cao said lovingly: "You are still too young, study hard, and one day, you will have the means of your father."

"What means does the father have? Isn't he being manipulated by the mother?" The prince said contemptuously.

Empress Cao shook her head lightly, "Silly boy, don't think of your father too simply. If the mother hadn't led Qingfei and Taoist Sanshi into the palace to confuse your father, how could he listen to me now? ?”

The crown prince nodded half-understanding, "However, I don't have to worry about it, the queen mother will plan everything for me."

"You have to improve yourself. You might as well learn more from your uncles. Your uncles are all outstanding people."

"Yes!" The prince replied.

Prince Qi got into the carriage immediately after leaving the palace, and ordered the handlebars, "Go!"

The handlebars were ordered, and the horsewhip was raised, "Yeah!"

King Qi opened the box, took out ginseng, poked under the brocade box, took out a piece of paper, he glanced at it quickly, and stuffed it into his sleeve pocket.

After reading this note, his heart became heavier.

His guess was correct, the emperor really planned to hold Murong Jie hostage in Beimo, and then continue the war with Qin Zhou.

Moreover, this is not Empress Cao's idea, but the emperor's idea. Before, they always thought that the emperor was bewitched by Empress Cao, so he made many muddled decisions. However, it turned out that Empress Cao was far less terrifying than the emperor. .

Back in the palace, he took a deep breath before stepping in.

Murong Jie and others had already eaten, and the retainers also arranged for them to live in the Xiyang Hall of the Wangfu.

Xiyang Hall is the largest building in the palace, with twelve rooms, one main hall and two side halls, and an independent garden, fully occupying one-third of the land in the palace.

By arranging Murong Jie here, it can also be seen that Lord Qi values ​​Murong Jie.

"Brother Murong, Concubine, are you still used to eating?" Prince Qi asked with a smile as soon as he entered the door.

Murong Jie was wiping his sword in the courtyard, and when he saw him coming in, he just raised his eyes lightly, "Accustomed? Is there something I'm not used to? There are some things that I get used to slowly, such as being cheated."

Prince Qi sneered, "This... Brother Murong really knows how to joke."

"King Qi, let's be honest, this king knows what Emperor Beimo means, so you might as well open the skylight and speak out. Your emperor wants to detain me here and continue to attack. Presumably, he is here when I step into the sky with both feet." When we were in the Northern Desert, Qin Zhou began to send orders for her to attack, right?"

While talking, Murong Jie tested the sword, his movements were like clouds and flowing water, done in one breath, but he just danced casually, and he felt the aura of the sword was overwhelming.

After hearing this, Duke Qi felt that one head was two big. He didn't know about this, he said: "I'm afraid General Qin Zhou won't attack, after all, the Qin family still has a room in Qicheng."

"In the imperial decree, the emperor will also say that Xia Zian of the Great Zhou Dynasty can't cure the epidemic at all. At that time, what else should Qin Zhou have to worry about? She wanted to fight this battle." Murong Jie sneered.

Prince Qi bit his head, "Brother Murong, I am sorry for you, this time, I was also deceived by the emperor and Empress Cao."

Murong Jie withdrew his sword, and suddenly smiled wildly, "It doesn't matter."

Prince Qi was startled, "Brother Murong?"

Murong Jie raised his sword, went in with his hands behind his back, and said: "After the decree is passed, it will take a few days for the emperor of Beimo to receive good news."

"Brother Murong, please explain clearly." King Qi chased him in.

Murong Jie locked the door behind his back, "I'm tired."

King Qi was shut out, but he couldn't get angry at all. Who made him feel wronged first?

Murong Jie entered the living room and sat on the teacher's chair. Zi'an was reading a book at the side. She heard the conversation between King Qi and Murong Jie, and smiled and said, "It's no use making things difficult for him. Haven't you seen him? It's all in vain. Worry has a few more gray hairs."

"Stupid!" Murong Jie snorted coldly, "Extremely stupid, do you believe the words of Emperor Bei Mo?"

"Don't you believe it too?" Zi'an smiled.

"Although I believe this king, I never drive myself away when I do things. Don't you still have a hand? Wait, the emperor of Beimo wants to hold me here so that he can attack Da Zhou, so I call him First suffer a defeat, taste the taste of being dumb."

Zian asked curiously: "What's wrong with being dumb? What will happen if Qin Zhou attacks?"

"Secret!" Murong Jie laughed, "You, just concentrate on waiting for the news."

"I really don't care. The medical books that Wen Yi left me have many records about the plague, so I have to read them quickly." Zi An said.

"Well, let's go to the epidemic area tonight." Murong Jie said.

"Okay!" Zian hoped that the sooner the better, but he was afraid that King Qi would not cooperate.

This made it easy for those who suffered from the epidemic to be the people of their Great Zhou.

"Zian, I will first analyze the Emperor Beimo's thoughts with you. He doesn't believe that you can cure the plague, but he will first announce that you can cure the plague, so that everyone can see hope and trust you. There is a plus, but when you can’t develop a prescription, their trust in you will turn into resentment. How much hope was there at the beginning, and how much hatred will end up in the end. The anger of the people will burn us alive. On the contrary , if you can develop the prescription, they will definitely send people to plunder secretly, take the credit, and then tell the people of Beimo that you, Xia Zian, are still useless, so we will be spurned by the people of Beimo, So, no matter which one it is, we have no benefit at all."

Zian nodded, feeling that Murong Jie's analysis was very thorough.

"Then what should we do? Are we going to ignore this plague? But even if we don't, we have entered the territory of Beimo now, and it may not be easy to leave." Zian asked.

"The plague, we are going to cure it. After all, those are innocent people. Don't worry, this king has his own plan. In the next few days, you, Rou Yao, Liu Liulingli and the others will go to the epidemic area. This king and Xiao Tuo Suqing walked around."

"This is the territory of Beimo, you must be careful." Zi'an said.

"Don't worry, don't you know what this king is capable of?" Murong Jie stretched out his hand and pulled the scar on her arm, "Emperor Beimo dares to deceive this king, this king will always return the favor."

There was a domineering light in his eyes.
