Chapter 72

: The Emperor is Furious Snap.

The book in the Emperor's hand fell.

The smile on his face also disappeared.

A smile will not disappear, it will only shift

Eunuch Wu lowered his head, not even daring to breathe, and carefully glanced at the Emperor's expression with the corner of his eyes.

The Emperor stood up, walked back and forth beside the couch with his hands behind his back, and his expression was uncertain.

"How could this happen!"

He was furious, and his original lazy attitude was gone. He turned around and asked: "Tell me in detail, what happened?"

Eunuch Wu told Emperor Beiling the news passed by the spy in detail.

Including a tug-of-war game that looked quite childish in the palace, and the final winner was selected to go up to the attic.

As for what happened in the attic, they didn't know. They only knew that when Ling Feng came down, he announced that only the girl from the Zhou family was left. As for the others, all of them lost their qualifications to stay in the palace.

The Regent King showed up in person and held a banquet in the hall so that the young men and young ladies could get to know each other. After the banquet, they wrote the names of their favorite people on a note, and the Regent King personally issued an order to grant marriages and arranged a match. The guests at

the banquet enjoyed themselves very much. Those young men and young ladies who were able to be with their favorite people were very grateful to the Regent King. They were well-matched in terms of family background, talent and appearance. They were simply a perfect match made in heaven.

In addition, because it promoted the marriage between the two families, the Prince Regent's move could be said to win people's hearts. After these young ladies and gentlemen returned, they reported the matter, and the elders in those families were all very happy.

It can be said that both sides win.

Only the emperor was in trouble. All his plans fell through.

Eunuch Wu asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, what should we do about this matter now?"

He wanted to ask, why do you send a beauty and ten men for no reason?

But he didn't dare.

The emperor showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were red with anger.

"I originally wanted to use this to make the Prince Regent lose his foundation in the court, but I never thought that it would make his foundation deeper. There are many neutral officials, and they are the real cornerstone of the court."

The head of Emperor Beiling was buzzing.

He rubbed his brows. What could he do? What else could he do? Just bear it.

Who made the Regent so powerful now? He also has the Queen Mother protecting him. As long as he doesn't do anything to endanger the entire royal family and Beiling Kingdom, he really can't do anything to him.

Emperor Beiling knew it as well. It was also because there was the Queen Mother in the palace. As the person who raised him carefully since he was a child, as long as she was alive, Ling Fengxun would never rebel.

Ling Fengxun values ​​friendship and loyalty, and this is his biggest weakness!

And the emperor must be truly cold and ruthless.

Angered and angry, Emperor Beiling coughed again. Eunuch Wu quickly handed him a handkerchief. Emperor Beiling covered his mouth and nose. After a while, his palm was bright red.

"I'll call the imperial physician now!"

He was about to turn around in panic, but was stopped by Emperor Beiling.

"No need. It's useless even if the imperial physician comes. I just need to rest for a while."

Eunuch Wu stopped, his face full of worry.

"Then your Majesty, do you want to withdraw the marriage?"

Emperor Beiling waved his hand with a gloomy face.

"He has already said that it is my intention. If I suddenly change my mind, won't people say that people from the royal family talk like farts?"

Eunuch Wu saw that the emperor started to curse, and he knew how angry the emperor was now.

Emperor Beiling waved his hands.

"Go out, let me be quiet."

"Yes."

Eunuch Wu lowered his head and was about to leave, but suddenly heard the emperor's voice.

"I heard that the regent prince still stayed with one, is it Zhou Cheng's daughter?"

"That's right."

Eunuch Wu immediately turned around and answered respectfully again.

Emperor Beiling narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment, then walked into the curtain, rummaged around, and took out a small bottle.

"Let her find a way to get close to King Xie, and put this on him."

Eunuch Wu took the small bottle quickly, and he mustered up the courage to ask: "Your Majesty, what if she is discovered? With the Regent King's temperament, he will never let her off."

"If she fails, it means she is useless and she can die."

"I understand."

"And..."

Emperor Beiling seemed to remember something and said, "I heard that General An was captured by King Xie?"

Eunuch Wu replied, "He is now in the prison of the Ministry of Justice."

Emperor Beiling narrowed his eyes, "General An has done a lot for the Queen's family over the years and received a lot of benefits. This time it's his turn to return the favor. Convey my decree. General An is suspected of treason and will be transferred from the Ministry of Justice to the Heavenly Prison to await punishment." Eunuch Wu

was suddenly shocked.

"I obey your orders!"

He withdrew from the palace and immediately arranged for his subordinates to do these things.

There are Beiling death warriors in the palace who are dedicated to protecting the emperor. These people are all trained with secret techniques. They are all highly skilled in martial arts and have ghostly movements. They will also help the emperor do other things.

For example, assassinating King Xian.

This kind of thing has been done before. When the emperor regarded Ling Fengxian as the biggest threat, he once arranged dozens of death warriors to encircle and assassinate him, but failed.

Ling Fengxian himself is extremely skilled in martial arts. He was besieged by dozens of people and waited for half an hour to wait for reinforcements. That time, the secret guards he had trained with great difficulty suffered heavy losses.

Since then, Emperor Beiling gave up this path and changed to a soft policy.

Even the crown prince had secret guards to protect him from assassination by people with ill intentions. The entire palace was well guarded.

After arranging this matter, Eunuch Wu quietly came to a corner of the palace, stuffed a note into a particularly inconspicuous crack in the wall, and then walked away as if nothing had happened.

A moment later, a group of eunuchs came out of the palace, where all kinds of people gathered. After they hurriedly passed by, the note disappeared without a trace.

That night.

A pigeon landed on a tree branch in front of a window of a mansion. The moonlight was shining, and the light and shadow were indistinct.

A slender white hand stretched out from the window and grabbed the pigeon's body.

The pigeon did not struggle, and honestly let the man take out the message on its ankle. After the man's fingers loosened, it flapped its wings and flew away.

In the room, the candles suddenly lit up.

The bright moonlight fell on the man's face.

With a hint of deep thought in his gentle and handsome face, An Yunhe slowly unfolded the note in his hand and took a look at the words on it.

He opened his thin lips slightly, his eyes were dim and unclear, and a cold dark color flashed across his eyes.

"Poison the King of Burning and move to Anqing?"

The note slowly burned in the candlelight.

An Yunhe tightened his lips and walked out the door. Soon, his figure disappeared into the night.
