People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 726: The female official in the palace, the starting point of ambition

The eyes gradually became clear, and He Qiniang slowly opened her eyes.

Seeing the familiar Li Xuan in front of her, He Qiniang hugged her legs with both hands, lowered her head, and sobbed, "I'm sorry, I couldn't keep him."

From the side, one could even see the tears streaming down the corners of He Qiniang's eyes.

He Qiniang's actions stunned Li Xuan, and Zhao Gong looked at Li Xuan with a strange expression.

Li Xuan shook her head angrily, then patted He Qiniang on the shoulder, and said, "You don't have to blame yourself, your mission has been completed, this time, he won't be able to escape."

The sobbing on He Qiniang's face gradually stopped, and finally she raised her head and looked at Li Xuan in a daze: "Really?"

"Really." Li Xuan nodded, and then asked again: "Can you tell me in detail, how did you meet him?"

"Yeah!" He Qiniang nodded, and then said in thought: "I just entered the building from the outside, and was quickly taken to my room, and then sent to this secret room through the secret passage mechanism. When I saw him...he had a square mask on his face, and he asked me directly if Zhou...Zhou Zhi was still alive."

When it came to Zhou Zhi, although He Qiniang was a little hard to say, she still hated many of them.

This time, Li Xuan's plan can be guaranteed to be implemented, and He Qiniang will bring the poison to meet the man in Tsing Yi.

And this, the most fundamental guarantee, is that no one in the outside world knows whether Zhou Zhi is still protecting him.

For the people in Tsing Yi, this point is very important, and Li Xuan has calculated this point correctly before he dared to play tricks on He Qiniang.

Yuchi Xunyu had already taken Bai Ying's (false) corpse to receive the reward, but fortunately Zhao Gong was one step ahead and went to the Ministry of Punishment to make arrangements.

It would be very troublesome if people really found out that it was Zhou Zhi who died, not Bai Ying.

After all, if the white eagle falls into the hands of Qianniuwei, the Wanxiang Pavilion should be the one who is really anxious, but if Zhou Zhi falls into the hands of Qianniuwei, the person in Tsing Yi should be the one who is anxious.

Even though Zhou Zhi didn't know the true identity of the man in Tsing Yi, he did know how many things the man in Tsing Yi had done through Qinxiangyuan.

Once these things are found out, then the people in Tsing Yi and the people behind him, all the arrangements during this period may be overturned.

Therefore, when He Qiniang returned to Qinxiangyuan, the people in Tsing Yi didn't even care about the means of investigating her, and immediately wanted to find out Zhou Zhi's situation.

"How did you say that?" Zhao Gong stared at He Qiniang.

He Qiniang said calmly: "I followed what you taught me, saying that Bai Ying was dead and Zhou Zhi was still alive, and was sent to Qianniu Prison half an hour ago. But he didn't believe it."

Under the watchful eyes of Li Xuan and Zhao Gong, He Qiniang stretched out her hand unnaturally to press her neck, and then continued: "He grabbed my neck, but the next moment, his face changed, he He couldn't breathe, and his whole body suddenly became groggy, as if he was about to fall asleep, but soon he woke up, and he cut his thigh, but he did it very quickly, and the blood didn't drip on the ground at all ,"

He Qiniang subconsciously looked down at a place not far ahead, and Zhao Gong on the side was secretly relieved.

Li Xuan twitched her nose and sniffed it a little. It seemed that there was really a smell of blood in the air.

He even deliberately scratched in mid-air, as if he could really catch some blood.

At this moment, He Qiniang looked at Li Xuan nervously, "Then, can we catch him now?"

"Of course, he can't escape." Li Xuan looked at the bed under the west wall, glanced at Zhao Gong, Zhao Gong nodded, and Li Xuan said: "When we were entangled with Ningqin Xiangyuan, The Jinwu Guards from the brigade have come over to search the entire Pingkangfang for the reason of investigating Tubo's spy work."

Of course, Li Xuan would not tell He Qiniang that this kind of search was more of a bluff. Although it was impossible to catch the man in Tsing Yi, he had to go to rest easily.

Pingkangfang is too big, and its background is too complicated.

Even if the Jinwu Guards had an imperial edict, they might not be willing to conduct a comprehensive search, but fortunately, they were trying to scare the snake away.

Li Xuan's poison has a characteristic, that is, it explodes violently at the beginning, but it is easy to be suppressed.

But once you suppress it, the harder you suppress it now, the more powerful it will be when it fully erupts in the future.

It is impossible for the man in Tsing Yi to stay in Pingkang Square tonight, because he does not know if Li Xuan has other means tonight.

If he is targeted by Li Xuan, then there will be endless means to stack up.

Even though he had already headed towards his home, tonight, the entire Chang'an city and all the lifangs were strictly investigated.

Tonight, even if he was allowed to rest, he might not be willing.

In the end, he didn't even notice the abnormality in his spirit, he just thought that everything was normal, but by tomorrow, it was already too late.

"I caught him, can I kill him with my own hands?" He Qiniang raised her head and looked at Li Xuan pitifully.

Li Xuan thought for a while, then finally shook her head and said, "I'm not lying to you, it's not difficult to catch him, the hard part is when the court wants to kill him, he knows a lot, the harder it is to kill him, unless you join the Secret Service right now." Wei, otherwise, it will be very difficult for him to fall into your hands, but if you join the secret guard, you can use any means on him except to kill him."

That person can die directly in the hands of Li Xuan, but he must not let Li Xuan be sent to He Qiniang's hands to kill him.

Li Xuan is not brainless, how could he do such a thing.

He Qiniang didn't care about what Li Xuan said at all, she turned her head to look at Zhao Gong, and couldn't help asking: "Can I join the secret guard?"

Zhao Gong stared at He Qiniang, looked up and down, and said, "You have three choices now."

He Qiniang stood there suddenly, then nodded silently.

Zhao Gong continued to speak, and said: "First, you can leave Qinxiang Garden now, and when the time comes, when Da Lang makes a move, you can follow by his side. If you want to make a move, you must have the best chance.

Second, you can join the secret guard. When the time comes, that person may fall into your hands again. I can arrange it, but I can't guarantee it.

Thirdly, you can choose to go back to the palace. The Empress has already found out about your affairs, and she will surely return justice to your family soon.You can go back to your hometown and find an ordinary person to marry, or you can stay in the palace, and the Queen of Heaven will give you a female official, a female official in the palace. "

After Zhao Gong finished speaking, he stopped talking, looked up at Li Xuan, and saw Li Xuan sitting there calmly.

Zhao Gong breathed a sigh of relief.

It was at this moment that He Qiniang had already made a decision: "I want to go back to the palace."

After finishing speaking, He Qiniang gave Li Xuan a pitiful look, then with tears in her eyes, she said firmly: "There is no one in my family anymore, because of what happened back then, the family has already kicked us out of the family tree, father And my younger brother... I don't have any relatives now, only when I return to the palace, only when I return to the palace can I truly take revenge.

What happened back then, although Zhou Zhi was the main one who framed my family, I knew that there were people behind him, and the only way to catch them all was to enter the palace. "

Li Xuan patted the back of He Qiniang's hand lightly, and said softly: "You can choose whatever you want, but if you enter the palace, I won't be able to help you anymore, even Uncle can't intervene... Fortunately Empress Dowager, at the beginning, your starting point will not be too low, but after that, you will have to work hard on your own."

"I know." He Qiniang nodded heavily, with a flash of ambition in her eyes, the attention of the Queen of Heaven is the starting point of her success.

Immediately, He Qiniang raised her head to look at Li Xuan, and asked with a pitiful face: "If there is any difficulty, can I call you?"

"Of course." Li Xuan agreed directly, and said warmly: "You don't need to hide things from others. There are not many places where I can use my strength for things in the palace."

He Qiniang suddenly smiled with pear blossoms in the rain: "It's okay, you just have to let people know that you are our benefactor."

Li Xuan also smiled.

……

After sending He Qiniang out of the secret room, Zhao Gong looked at the entrance of the tunnel and sighed softly, "Another ambitious one."

"If she leaves the palace, her final choice is to find an honest man to marry, and she will choose a son in the future to inherit the incense of the He family. But the problem is, she is used to the glory and wealth." Li Xuan shook her face calmly. Shaking her head, she said lightly: "Letting her join the secret guards seems to have the right, but she may not be able to bear the hardship, nor may she be able to bear the risk, so in the end, she can only return to the palace and use the Empress Dowager Feeling guilty for a moment, occupy a good position in the palace."

"In the future, I will find a way to get you to help?" Zhao Gong sneered with a corner of his mouth.

Li Xuan didn't answer Zhao Gong's question, but said softly: "Her family was framed because of their connection to Shangguanyi's case. If her family had nothing to do with Shangguan's family, this matter would not have happened. Now the Shangguan family's The granddaughter is already 12 years old, and her mother, Mrs. Zheng, happens to be by Tianhou's side, seeing He Qiniang, she must support her."

"So your target is Zheng Shanggong." Zhao Gong couldn't help shaking his head in disbelief.

I said it was Shangguan Wan'er, would you believe me?
Li Xuan turned her head, looked at Thirteenth Niang who was sleeping on the ground, and said softly: "The rest is the end of these things tonight."

"White Eagle in the Vientiane Pavilion was caught before, and everything he knows will be tortured."

"But the key is not the White Eagle." Li Xuan said with a serious face, "Now almost everyone knows that we have captured Zhou Zhi, and someone will definitely find a way to get Zhou Zhi out of Qianniu Prison. I need I know the name of the person who entrusted the relationship at that time, and when the time comes, once Qian Niuwei agrees to hand it over, someone will definitely rob the prisoner on the way to hand it over, and I am afraid that another group of people will die by then, I need to know background of those people."

If it was indeed Zhou Zhi who was arrested, then it would not be a real headache to be a Qianniuwei. After all, Zhou Zhi was an official of the imperial court, and according to the law, he should be under the jurisdiction of Dali Temple.

But if it wasn't Zhou Zhi, then Qianniuwei would have to do some tricks.

Li Jingjia, Prince of Beiping County, was not someone to be trifled with. It was perfectly normal for a group of people to be killed.

"It's not difficult." Zhao Gong nodded casually.

Li Xuan continued with a calm expression: "Then there is this Qinxiang Garden."

"Those officials, I'm afraid the people from Dali Temple are already on their way, and the imperial censor has already started to impeach them." Zhao Gong's expression became serious.

The Queen's means are fast astonishing.

"So, we need to search the entire Qinxiang Garden as soon as possible, find out all the things in all the secret rooms, and then take them away, especially those women in the palace, Dali Temple can't take them away, and Those who don't belong to the palace and have no interest in Dali Temple..."

"We are already searching, and the confessions are being recorded separately. There are only a few that are really valuable here. When handing over the order, we just need a little time." Zhao Gong sighed lightly. He has been doing this for a long time, and he has various The means are very skilled.

"Finally, it's her." Li Xuan nodded Thirteen Niang with her foot.

"Don't worry, she will become the person in this world who hates the man in Tsing Yi the most!"
