Chapter 681: Better at singing than actors
The next day was the Eagle Banquet.
The civil officials were more humble than each other, and the military officials were also humble; the guests and hosts drank and chatted happily.
Yan Zerong had been jumping up and down since the beginning of the banquet, and kept saying to others: "When I am born, I can bring honor to my family!!!"
"Your Majesty is wise and thinks highly of us. I am truly grateful and in tears!!"
He single-handedly heated up the atmosphere.
The officials were all very happy, thinking that this person was really understanding, and he was also very happy... As he was talking, he was thinking, the higher you praise, the harder you fall!! The happier you are now, the more angry you will be when you find out you have been cheated later!! As a result, he drank half a jar of wine, talked a lot, and waited and waited, and waited until his neck became long... Every time the official appointed by the emperor raised his glass, he looked forward to it.
But until the banquet was over, no official said the most crucial words!!!
Yan Zereng's brain, which had been slow to react after drinking, also felt that something was wrong... He murmured, "No, no, what's the problem?"
Someone asked him, "What's wrong?"
Yan Zerong accidentally blurted out, "Why didn't anyone poison me? Why didn't anyone poison me?"
The man was stunned: "What? Poisoning?!"
Others also came over: "Poison? What poison?"
Yan Zerong was startled, and suddenly realized something was wrong: "No, no, you heard it wrong... I'm not feeling well, I'll go back first."
He left as fast as the wind.
The remaining few people looked at each other, feeling that something was wrong.
A similar scene is happening in different places.
The Red Gang members who had also waited in vain complained after the banquet: "What do you mean by foolproof?! What do you mean by the smaller the move, the less likely it is to be exposed?! He still acts like he is unfathomable, saying that we don't understand, and that once we understand, no matter who the Shadow Guard officials are, they are all his puppets... Bullshit! We knew he couldn't accomplish anything!"
What Yan Zereng still doesn’t understand is that after several “orthodoxies” were exposed and the malignant ulcers were transmitted from person to person…the prestige he had built up over the years had long been destroyed.
After one, two, three, or four days, in several provincial capitals.
The people from the martial arts world separated, some rushed to the capital, some returned to their hometowns, and some were still lingering there, when a group of Longxiong Guards arrived there.
These Jianghu people already have the status of Juren, and they will be comrades in arms soon, so they dared to ask. After asking, they heard that before the Yingyang Banquet, someone from the Red Gang had pretended to be an imperial envoy and falsely conveyed the imperial decree, asking the imperial officials to poison the martial arts Juren! ! And they also pretended to be the little princess! ! Fortunately, the officials saw through it and arrested him on the spot. Now the Longxiong Guards came to pick him up.
Because this incident happened after the Yingyang Banquet, it was "accidentally" seen by a few gang members who had not yet left, and they themselves had the courage to get close to them and find out about it, so of course they believed it without a doubt.
The Red Gang's already notorious reputation...fell even further.
The Red Gang is not only ruthless, but also stupid! They are even better at singing than actors! This has become a very popular joke recently. Not only officials, but also people in the underworld find it funny. Hahahaha, the Red Gang really overestimates their own capabilities. They actually want anyone to pretend to be the imperial envoy! Do they think the real imperial envoy is a fool?
Really stupid imperial envoys: "..."
Yan Zerong: “…”
These fake eunuchs were all important chess pieces that he had carefully selected!! They had trained for several years for this scene!! He could guarantee that this impersonation would be indistinguishable from the real thing!! The key point was that the tokens were all real!! All real!!
So this plan may seem simple, but it is based on his understanding of the royal family's behavior, and it is foolproof! !
How could these imperial envoys see through it! They are so damn cunning! He was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, and his internal organs were in pain, but he couldn't say a word, and had to echo hahaha: "That's right! Overestimating one's own abilities, yes, stupid, and vicious..."
At this time, in the palace.
Xinbao slept for day and night after day.
The next day at noon, Yan Shifan canceled his appointments with Xiang Xiaodong and Wang Ronggui and stayed with his sister.
By the afternoon, Xinbao still hadn't woken up.
No matter how many times this happened, people were still worried. Emperor Mingpei came to see him at night, and heard that he had not woken up yet in the morning, so he came again after the morning court session.
He lifted the curtain and touched her little face, asking, "Did you give her water?"
Hua Shuang said: "I fed him once in the evening and once in the morning."
Emperor Mingpei nodded and stood up to leave, but he saw the little girl on the bed suddenly frowned. Emperor Mingpei sat back down in a hurry: "Xinbao?"
Tuanzi struggled to open his eyes and murmured, "Yeah yeah."
Emperor Mingpei said, "Yeah, here you are, Xinbaoer?"
Tuanzi's eyes were half open and half closed, and he reached out his hands from under the quilt to ask for a hug.
Emperor Mingpei quickly picked her up and asked softly, "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Tuanzi murmured, "Yeah, fish belly books... someone has made a fish belly books!! God's will is here, Fu Zhen will be the emperor... Yeah, yeah..."
Emperor Mingpei frowned, and seeing that Tuanzi's face was wrinkled, as if it was extremely difficult to speak, he comforted him: "Okay, okay, Yeye knows, don't worry, it's okay."
Tuanzi tilted his head and fell asleep again.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Emperor Mingpeidi waited for a while and was about to put her down, but as soon as he left her, she struggled to wake up again.
After trying twice to put her down, Mingpei Emperor couldn't put her down either time and again. He simply asked someone to bring a cloak over, wrapped her up, put on her shoes, and carried her out, while complaining to Yuan Shenjue: "The Red Gang is really in a mess. Yan Zereng, this loser, can't even run a mere Red Gang properly!!"
Even if the books hidden in the belly of a fish really appeared, it would not be a big deal for ordinary people who cannot read a single word.
This was obviously a stupid move and should not have been Yan Zereng's idea.
So, Yan Zerong, this idiot, is the leader of the gang? And the people under him are doing their own things?
You know, before Yan Zereng's scheme to falsely convey the imperial edict, another incident happened.
It was the Liu Lizhi from back then.
Liu Lizhi is also an old fox who has been in the court for many years. He will not believe just anyone who says he has diabetes.
So Emperor Mingpei asked people to investigate, but when they did, they found out that the matter was related to the Red Gang.
The doctor in Liu's house said that his mother had passed away and returned home, and then Liu Lizhi had been looking for a good doctor.
As a result, when he was on leave a while ago, he had a meal with friends and fainted outside. He then went to see a nearby doctor and developed symptoms of diabetes.
The pulse and symptoms were all the same, such as swollen legs, shortness of breath, inability to lie down, and even fainting... The imperial physician was invited four times, and everyone's diagnosis was the same, saying that it had been delayed for too long and the imperial physician could not save him, and they all suggested that he ask the little princess for help.
Only then did Liu Lizhi start to approach Xinbao...but ended up being disliked by Xinbao.
In fact, before Liu Li came into contact with Xinbao, that is, about ten days after he fainted that day, his pulse and other conditions had improved, and he was no longer suffering from diabetes, so this was most likely a poison.
But Liu Lizhi didn’t know it at that time!
He thought it was impossible to get well all at once, and after being rejected by Xinbao, he looked for famous doctors everywhere. Then a folk doctor came to him and said that he could save him in two months, but after he recovered, he needed him to do something for them.
He almost agreed, but then the Super Body Pill incident happened, so he gave up, and the man never came again.
The shadow guard followed the clues and found the Red Gang's communication logo, but didn't find the person.
Liu Lizhi was the Minister of Personnel. In addition to military officers, the military examination would also include two civil officials. Liu Lizhi would most likely serve as the chief examiner.
Plus he said two months, the time makes sense.
In other words, in the matter of the martial arts examination alone, there are two different forces working on this, and what they are doing is obviously repetitive.
That's why it is said that Yan Zereng, this stupid ass, has obviously lost control of the Red Gang, and these people have started fighting each other.
