The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 659
He Liancheng's cold eyes swept over the crowd, and there was a hint of disdain in the depths.Finally, it fell back to the imperial doctor, "You will tell me the process of buying and brewing the medicine in detail."

The Yanling Saber was still on the imperial doctor's neck.Stains of blood could be vaguely seen.

The imperial doctor choked up and stammered what had happened.

At this time, several other imperial doctors were also escorted into the room.

There was a lot of chatter, and the room was very noisy.After much difficulty, it can be regarded as explaining the ins and outs of the matter clearly.

The medicine is bought by the servants in the government office to the pharmacy in the city.Several imperial doctors personally boiled it.

That is to say, except that these imperial doctors and maids have the opportunity to tamper with the medicine.The servant who went to buy medicinal materials, and even the pharmacy owner may be the murderer.

Of course, in terms of the most suspected person, it is undoubtedly the imperial doctor who brought in the medicine.

He Liancheng ordered the guards to take the imperial doctor to escort the servant who bought the medicinal materials and the owner of the pharmacy where the medicinal materials came from.

Now that Zhongsun Qifu and others lost their minds, he was the only one in charge of the overall situation.

Not long after, hundreds of Xixia soldiers left the government office.

After Yi Tianhua heard the news that Li Wangyuan had passed away, he hurried to the backyard, before he could say anything, he was restrained by the soldiers amidst the orders from Helian City.

The emperor's sudden death is a big deal, and Helian City will not let anyone who has doubts go.

It's just that no one knows what his thoughts are in this.

Xixia has returned to the country, although Li Wangyuan is dead, but there must be another emperor.Those who are most likely to get the throne are probably people from several big families.

Whichever family can find out the mastermind behind the scenes will always add some chips to seize the throne in the future.

After ten minutes or so passed, Zhongsun Qifu and the others finally calmed down a little.

Zhongsun Qifu sat paralyzed on the ground, his face full of despair, and said to He Liancheng: "The person who poisoned the emperor must be investigated and found out."

He Liancheng cupped his hands and said, "The last general will definitely do his best."

Zhongsun Qifu choked up again, "Why did God torture our Western Xia royal family like this..."

When Li Wangyuan died, he already felt that the whole sky had collapsed.At this moment, he didn't even have the thought of taking credit for investigating the murderer.

The Xixia soldiers hurriedly escorted the imperial doctor and servants of the government office to the West Street in the city, and soon escorted the shopkeeper's whole family, young and old, to the government office.

I don't want to talk about the torture and torture in the government office.

Thinking that the person behind the scenes could poison Li Wangyuan silently under such circumstances, it would not be easy to get him out.

In the dark, three people entered Qinghua County City.

One in Tsing Yi, one in Red, and a woman in a light yellow palace skirt.

At this time, more than ten days have passed since Jun Tianfang left Chongqing Mansion with Yunjing and Li Xiushu.

The three of them rode on the road, and their speed was much faster than that of the Xixia army.If he was faster, he might be able to catch up with the Xixia army on the road.

As soon as he entered the city, Jun Tianfang said to Li Xiushu: "Your brother and the others should have arrived in the city not long ago, I will send you to the government office."

These days, they rushed to Qinghua County at full speed. On the way, they could naturally hear a lot of news about the march of the army.

Li Xiushu nodded slightly, but did not speak.

Now that she finally returned to the homeland of Xixia, she should have been extremely excited, but for some reason, she seemed a little too plain at this time.

But Jun Tianfang didn't care about these, after turning around, he led the horse and went straight to the depths of the city.

The news of Li Wangyuan's sudden death was blocked by He Liancheng and others, and it didn't spread even in the government office.

There are still only a dozen soldiers guarding the gate outside the government office.

There was no big movement in the government office.

Jun Tianfang took the two women and led the horses directly to the outside of the government office, and said to the soldiers guarding the gate: "Is the Xixia army in the city now?"

Seeing him fluttering in green clothes and carrying a long sword, the gatekeepers didn't dare to send him away, they just said: "Why do you ask this?"

Of course, this may also be because the two girls are extremely good-looking, and they want to stay here to take a few more glances, so that their eyes will be fuller.

Not to mention the top ten Yunjing in the Oiran List, Li Xiushu is in her mature season, and she is also a rare beauty among the folks.

Jun Tianfang said: "I am the envoy of the Great Song Dynasty, and I am sending you Princess Xixia back to the country, so hurry up and report."

The eyes of more than a dozen soldiers widened slightly.

Zhongsun Qifu and others knew about Li Xiushu, but ordinary soldiers like them might not know about it.They just know that there are still princesses in the royal family who have not been able to return home.

Seeing that Jun Tian's attitude is not very human, these soldiers subconsciously believed it.

The ten commander said to the soldiers next to him, "Go in quickly and report to Lord Zhizhou."

The soldiers hurriedly ran towards the government office.

The three of Jun Tianfang stood quietly at the gate of the government office.

After the soldier ran to the government office, he went to the courtyard where Yi Tianhua lived, only then did he learn that Yi Tianhua had rushed to the courtyard where the emperor lived.

He then hurriedly ran further back.

He just ran outside Li Wangyuan's courtyard, but was stopped by Li Wangyuan's guards with horizontal guns.

It's just that the soldiers of the Xiang Army in Qinghua County didn't dare to provoke these guards, and they didn't dare to force their way in, so they just smiled and said: "Please, brothers, please inform me that someone who claims to be an envoy of the Great Song Dynasty is asking to see him outside the mansion, saying yes Send me back to Her Majesty the Princess."

The leader of the guards was also slightly stunned, then nodded and walked inside.

But at this moment, he didn't know whether to be sad or happy.

The emperor was looking forward to the safe return of Her Highness the Princess day and night, and they, the guards, knew it.just now...

After arriving in the courtyard, the leader of the forbidden army walked directly into the house.

There were many people kneeling in the room.

A few maids, a few imperial doctors, and a few house servants, the whole family of the pharmacy shopkeeper, including Yi Tianhua, were all kneeling.

There was a flickering Yanling knife resting on their necks, and He Liancheng was asking something sharply.

After the leader entered the room, he quietly walked to Zhongsun Qifu, and said in a low voice: "Master Taifu, there is someone outside the government office who claims to be an envoy of the Great Song Dynasty to send Her Highness the Princess back."

Zhongsun Qifu, whose eyes were red and swollen from crying, was slightly stunned, but then sighed softly in his heart, "What's the use of Her Royal Highness coming back..."

But he still followed the guard leader and walked out of the house.

At his age, he has seen too many storms and waves, and his temperament is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary people.In the past 10 minutes, he has accepted the fact that Li Wangyuan passed away.

Right now, Zhongsun Qifu's mind is full of thoughts on how to continue to stabilize the situation in Xixia.

He is loyal to the imperial faction.

Li Wangyuan is dead, but Xixia is not without exiles, and there are sideline royal families who can still have a relationship with the royal family.

If there is someone who can be made among those people, maybe they can help them ascend to the great treasure.

Arriving at the gate of the mansion, the old Zhongsun Qifu looked at the three of Jun Tianfang, and finally fixed his eyes on Li Xiushu, bowed and said: "The old minister Zhongsun Qifu pays his respects to Your Highness the Princess."

He has never seen Li Xiushu, but he has seen Li Xiushu's portrait.

When Li Wangyuan just returned to Xixia, he was always staring at Li Xiushu's portrait in a daze for a long time.

Li Xiushu was graceful and luxurious, and she still had the nobility she had cultivated when she was a concubine of the Yuan Dynasty. She said lightly, "Teacher is free."

Then he looked behind Zhongsun Qifu, his eyes became colder, "Where is my brother?"

Zhongsun Qifu hesitated to speak, and looked at Jun Tianfang and Yunjing.

Jun Tianfang said calmly: "The princess has already been delivered, so Jun left first."

Then he took Yunjing and led the horse away.

Zhongsun Qifu sighed lightly, and said, "Your Highness, please follow the veteran into the mansion!"

Li Xiushu frowned slightly, feeling something strange in her heart.Women's intuition is often very keen.

After following Zhongsun Qifu into the government office for a few meters, Li Xiushu asked, "Why are the Taifu's eyes so red?"

"I would also like to express my condolences to Your Royal Highness the Princess."

Zhongsun Qifu said in a low voice: "The emperor...he died half an hour ago."

Li Xiushu's footsteps froze in place.

A look of disbelief appeared on her pretty face.

There were tears flickering in her eyes, but she was tense and never let the tears flow down.

The nails of both hands quietly dug into the flesh.

Zhongsun Qifu didn't look back, and didn't speak any more, but stopped quietly.

After tens of seconds, Li Xiushu's soft voice sounded again, like an undercurrent surging under the calm sea, "How could my brother die?"

The hunched Zhongsun Qifu continued to walk forward slowly, "The Emperor was severely injured in the Battle of Chongqing and he was recuperating in the mansion. Someone tampered with the medicine, and the Emperor died suddenly."

Li Xiushu kept up with Zhongsun Qifu, "Who is the murderer?"
