Xiao Yuqi patted the wooden horse's head and said, "This is the wooden ox and flowing horse. With this, it will be easy to pretend that there are people in the city."
"Your Majesty is righteous."
Qiu Ruitang finally felt relieved.
"The Minister of Agriculture came to see me yesterday and asked when the potatoes and sweet potatoes grown by the experts would be shipped to Liaoyuan Pass?"
Xiao Yuqi replied coldly: "Tonight!"
"yes."
The food and fodder were escorted by Qiu Ruitang himself.
In fact, the first batch of food and fodder had already been secretly transported to the town closest to Liaoyuan Pass.
The transportation of this batch of grain and fodder was carried out with great fanfare just to conceal its tracks.
After Qiu Ruitang left, Xiao Yuqi summoned Pojun.
...
...
"What has the Regent done these past two days?"
"Ever since the prince got angry with the queen mother, he has been staying in the palace, accompanying the princess peacefully."
"Beware of fraud."
After the imperial examination, nearly half of the important officials in the court were replaced by Xiao Yuqi's confidants.
How could Xiao Linshen be able to spend the New Year so peacefully at home with the princess?
"As Your Majesty expected, there was indeed a trick. Throughout the New Year, the Regent secretly met with a total of twelve ministers, including Master Xie."
Pojun presented a booklet.
"These are the contents of their secret conversations."
Xiao Yuqi raised his eyebrows, "It seems that Master Xie has completely switched sides to the Emperor's uncle's side?"
"yes."
really.
People's ambitions are getting bigger and bigger.
“Human desires are insatiable.”
"How will your majesty respond?"
"I..."
Xiao Yuqi's words had not yet been spoken.
A stern voice of rebuke came from outside the door.
Pojun immediately protected Xiao Yuqi.
Xiao Yuqi thought of Su Jianyue who was sleeping in the main hall.
He secretly cried out that it was not good.
The palace door opened.
He saw Cheng Lin holding a long knife to the neck of a young eunuch.
Xiao Yuqi recognized at a glance that the person kneeling on the ground was a woman.
"Are you a maid in Concubine Duo's palace?"
Nina, who came as a dowry with Dolando.
"What's wrong with you?"
Before Xiao Yuqi finished speaking, a few silver needles appeared in Nina's hand.
The silver needle flew out, heading straight towards Xiao Yuqi's direction.
Xiao Yuqi dodged by moving sideways.
Suddenly, many assassins appeared in the courtyard.
They wore eunuch uniforms and almost blended in with the young eunuchs in the Taiji Hall.
It's hard to recognize.
When everyone's attention was focused on this side.
Dolando took advantage of the chaos and entered the main hall.
Su Jianyue buried her head in the quilt and fell into a deep sleep.
Dolando held the dagger and walked towards her step by step.
"It's your honor to die in my hands."
Dolando stabbed at the dragon bed with a knife.
Su Jianyue just turned over in a daze.
Rolled to the patient in the family ward.
She was wearing a snow-white middle garment, and she disappeared from Dolando's sight just like that.
The dagger was stuck in the mattress.
Dolando exclaimed: "How is it possible?"
How could such a big living person disappear out of thin air?
She pulled out the dagger and threw back the blanket on the woman.
"Where are the people?"
The ward was much brighter than Xiao Yuqi's room.
Su Jianyue has become accustomed to this kind of shuttling.
However, she was so sleepy that she was too lazy to open her eyes. She subconsciously crawled into the quilt, rolled over, and returned to Xiao Yuqi's bedroom.
The bodyguard who was guarding outside the door and noticed the movement in the ward pushed the door open and looked at each other in surprise.
"Where's the person? Didn't he show up just now?"
Another bodyguard rubbed his eyes.
"Yeah, I saw someone there too."
"Could it be an illusion?"
The leader looked at him.
The second bodyguard shook his head.
"Look at this bed. It clearly looks like someone has slept in it."
The two bodyguards suddenly approached.
"Isn't it... a ghost?"
Su Jianyue’s sudden appearance scared Dolando.
"Ah! Ghost!"
Ziyuan was originally guarding outside the door, responsible for Su Jianyue's safety.
However, he was led away by two young eunuchs and started fighting with them.
Dolando took advantage of this opportunity to sneak into the bedroom.
Suddenly hearing a noise coming from inside, Ziyuan drew out the soft sword from his waist, killed one man with one sword, and kicked another away.
He immediately entered the hall.
She saw Su Jianyue sitting on the dragon couch, and her sleepy eyes suddenly became clear.
He saw Dolando sitting on the ground again, her face full of fear. When she looked at Su Jianyue, it was as if she was looking at a living female ghost.
Next to Dolando was a turquoise dagger, the favorite of the Northern Hu people.
This assassination.
It was written by Dolando.
No doubt about it.
But what no one expected was.
Dolando actually had so many people ambushing in the deep palace.
No one had discovered it before.
Even when Duofu searched the imperial palace, he could not find any trace of those people.
Su Jianyue put her clothes back on which had slipped off.
She was wrapped in a quilt, staring at the scene in front of her.
"You again?"
Aster's soft sword has already landed on Dolando's neck.
Dolando's soul was scared away by Su Jianyue.
At this moment, she was like a puppet.
Her hands and feet were cold and numb, and she subconsciously denied it.
"No...it's not me!"
Ziyuan nodded at Su Jianyue.
"Miss, those outside are all Concubine Duo's people. I need to take her out and hand her over to His Majesty for disposal."
Su Jianyue nodded.
"good."
Dolando had just been taken away by Dolando.
The next second, Su Jianyue climbed up from the dragon bed and put on a new dress.
But she hadn't had time to comb her hair.
He was knocked unconscious by a palm strike from someone.
Good job.
Is this still a chain of tricks?
Su Jianyue woke up in an empty room.
The room is decorated in an antique style with a strong Tianyu Dynasty style.
However, this is a completely unfamiliar place.
But it has a strong scent of powder.
There were footsteps outside.
Su Jianyue subconsciously closed her eyes and began to pretend to sleep.
"Why hasn't she woken up yet?"
"Logically, he should be awake!"
Is that a woman's voice?
Su Jianyue was puzzled.
"How about we ask the doctor to take a look?"
The woman's tone was obviously unhappy.
"We have already brought the person out. Whether she can escape this disaster depends on her luck. Let's go."
As soon as the person who was talking left.
Su Jianyue opened her eyes again.
She stood up and looked out the window.
Only then did I realize that it was already dark outside.
I wonder if it’s not curfew yet.
The streets are bustling with people, and it is extremely lively.
From a distance, she saw several girls from a brothel standing outside an archway soliciting customers.
Su Jianyue suddenly understood where this rich scent of powder came from.
There was a noise outside the door again.
"Sir, just wait and see. The girl who came here today is definitely a rare beauty that is rarely seen in a century. She will definitely not disappoint you."
Su Jianyue hid behind the smoky pink gauze curtain.
I heard the wooden door creak open.
