Lord, your mask fell off

Chapter 178 The Killing Order

In the dead of night.

Inside the Moon Palace, a figure stood under the palace lantern. It was vaguely visible, and it could be recognized that it was a woman's figure, and she was also a woman with a good figure.

When the wind blew, the thin palace gauze was blown away, revealing the appearance of the person inside.

Concubine Yue with a calm but uneasy face.

She stood for a while, as if waiting for someone.

Suddenly, the candle light flickered slightly, Concubine Yue couldn't help closing her eyes. When she opened them, a man in a black cloak appeared in front of her. He didn't know his figure, but he felt that this person was tall, but there was a gloomy aura of death all over his body, but when Concubine Yue turned his gaze, the gloomyness on his body dissipated a lot.

"At this time, you ordered someone to pass me over. What's the important thing?" The voice was deep and slightly hoarse, and the age and gender could not be discerned. It seemed that the voice had been deliberately changed and was ambiguous.

Seeing the person coming, Concubine Yue immediately showed a smile on her face, "You are here! I knew you would come."

"Yeah." The cloaked man nodded, "But you're still too bold, the palace is heavily guarded, so be careful!" said the cloaked man.

"With your martial arts, it's not easy to get in and out of the palace," Concubine Yue didn't take it seriously, and then she started to cut to the point and continued, "Xiao Xu was sent to the Fuli Mountains to explore the mines. What do you think about this?"

"It's nothing more than losing and dying." The cloaked man replied casually.

"Death?" Concubine Yue was puzzled.

"For so many years, the Fuli Mountains have been covered with snow and are close to the southern border. If there are mines, they have already been excavated. How can we wait until this time?" The cloaked man stood with his hands behind his back, analyzing for her.

"Then what does your Majesty mean?" Concubine Yue was a little confused. Since there is no mine, why did Xiao Xu go to explore it? Suddenly, her eyes were pleasantly surprised, "Could it be that Your Majesty wants to distract Xiao Xu and use this time to cultivate mines?" However, the power allowed him to take root in the dynasty?"

The man in the cloak nodded insignificantly, "Not all of them. Cultivation is one reason, and Xiao Xu's disappearance in this world is also a reason, but I think there is another reason, but I can't find it out yet. But it must be Not to mention, Emperor Xixuan is indeed very kind to you mother and son, and all his thoughts are spent on you."

"How to make Xiao Xu disappear?" Concubine Yue immediately asked, this is what she is most concerned about now, Xiao Xu is a thorn in her side, a thorn in her flesh, she must get rid of him as soon as possible!
"Do you know why the news of going to the Fuli Mountains to search for mines is known to everyone?" the cloaked man asked back.

"It's impossible for His Majesty to send someone to spread the word." Concubine Yue shook her head. Although she said that Her Majesty didn't like Xiao Xu, she wasn't so vicious.

"Emperor Xixuan didn't give an order, but he knew that someone would do it. Those who are jealous of Xiao Xu and those who are at odds with the Liang family will do it! In this way, everyone in the world knows that there are ores in the Fuli Mountains, so those who are ambitious The royal family, the rich who want to make huge profits, and the desperate thugs will all turn their attention to the Fuli Mountains, ready to move, and when the time comes, the Fuli Mountains will become a slaughterhouse!"

"But there's no ore there!" Concubine Yue asked with a frown.

"So what if there is no ore? Many people don't know the truth. They would rather believe it or not, and would rather kill three thousand by mistake than let one go. , If you can’t get it yourself, you won’t let others get it! This is the psychology of human nature!” The cloaked man sneered, because his voice changed and he couldn’t speak, it sounded very weird, and it made people feel hairy all over.

Concubine Yue's eyes flickered with a gloomy smile, "It seems that I don't need to intervene, this matter has already spread widely, haha, it seems that Xiao Xu will not be far away from his death this time without me doing it!"

But as soon as the words fell, Concubine Yue frowned again, "No, I'm still not at ease. As long as Xiao Xu is not dead, I will have no peace in my heart."

"What are you going to do?" The man in the cloak raised his tone, as if disapproving.

"Cut the grass without eradicating the roots, and the spring breeze blows again. I thought he would die in battle. I thought that the assassination again and again would kill him, but every time he escaped, the timing is so good this time." , I can’t let it go for nothing, so——” Concubine Yue looked at the cloaked man, and said in an irrefutable tone, “I want you to issue a killing order! Completely help me solve Xiao Xu, so that I can sit back and relax!”

The man in the cloak pondered, "It's not impossible to kill the order, but do you really want to do more?"

He met Concubine Yue's pleading eyes, and finally sighed, "Forget it, you have been willful for so many years."

Concubine Yue couldn't help being delighted when she saw him compromise, "I knew you were the best for me!"

The man in black smiled wryly and shook his head, the best thing for you is Emperor Xixuan, the poison of a tiger does not eat its children, but he has repeatedly made exceptions for your mother and son.

With a wave of the cloak, the whole person disappeared in place. Concubine Yue looked at the wide open window and smiled softly, Liang Yuan, this time, I want to see how you will fight with me!
In the inner hall.

Xiao Hou holds white pieces in one hand and black pieces in the other, playing chess against himself.

"Master, King Ying has arrived at Qili." The subordinate knelt in front of him and reported.

"En." Xiao Hou dropped a white stone, as if he didn't care much about what his subordinate reported.

The stove was burning, and the whole room was as warm as spring.

The palace servants changed a new teacup, it was Biluochun, Xiao Hou picked up the teacup, the lid of the cup slid gently, brushing over the floating tea leaves, the movements were slow and smooth, living a luxurious and luxurious life, it was hard for people outside to imagine, outside The third prince, who is so fragile and always soft, now has a smile on the corner of his mouth, but it doesn't reach his eyes, as if an unpredictable wild wolf will lie in wait for an opportunity to come out and bite you.

"Master, everything is still calm at present, should we do it?" The subordinate suggested.

Xiao Hou put down the cup, took the brocade handkerchief handed over by the maid, wiped the corner of his mouth, and said quietly, "No, it's not the time yet, and there are many people who can't hold back, why should we be the first bird."

"Yes, the master is more considerate than the subordinate." The subordinate bowed his head in response.

Xiao Hou continued to play chess with the pieces, his eyes fell on the chessboard, he held the hands of the pieces, paused slightly, and after contemplating for a while, he said slowly, "However, I don't think this is a simple trip to the mine, the emperor should return Another explanation, you send people to pay close attention to every move of the king and his party, and find out the secret mission!"

"This subordinate obeys." The subordinate immediately took the order.

Xiao Hou dropped his last son, and the situation was settled.

Baizi completely outflanks Heizi, and Heizi loses.

On a dark and stormy night, there are so many conspiracies staged one by one.

The night is too cold, the wind is too cold, those who travel far, can you have a safe and smooth journey?
