Agent Abandoned Concubine: Tyrant, beg for favor

Chapter 222
After Zhang Taiwei got the queen's order, he began to create accidents for the family members of those ministers.

Even Lord Shangshu's wife and children took their mother to the temple to offer incense, and they were murdered.

After walking for a long time, the wheels of the carriage began to crack, and the people in the carriage fell to the ground.

Fortunately, the carriage did not run very fast, and everyone in the carriage was safe and sound.But this action frightened the old mother of Lord Shangshu to faint.

Seeing this, Mrs. Shang Shu was so frightened that she burst into tears, which attracted everyone's attention.With the help of the people, the old mother was successfully sent back to the mansion for rescue.

This scene happened to be captured by Yun Xi and Su Ruoqi.Originally, Su Ruoqi was in a hurry and planned to help.But Yun Xi stopped her.

"The Queen must have done this. Let's not act rashly." Li Ran told Su Ruoqi.

Then the three of them returned home.Originally, I just went out to buy some digging tools, but I didn't expect to encounter this situation.

Thinking of this, Su Ruoqi's heart sank deeply again.Can't help but sigh.

Yun Xi is obviously also very concerned about this matter.Then he asked Li Ran how much he knew about things like this.

"Master Shang Shu seems to have a lot of opinions on the queen. Not only him, but also more officials were murdered like this."

Li Ran sat on the chair, picked a grape and stuffed it into his mouth.He said angrily in his mouth.

After hearing his words, Yun Xi and Su Ruoqi felt even more anxious.Unexpectedly, this queen is getting more and more arrogant now.

"The matter of digging the tunnel is imminent, and we must proceed quickly."

Yun Xi had a flash of inspiration, and there were bursts of stubbornness in her eyes.without delay.

"Okay. Let me do it." Li Ran picked up the tool and walked into the secret room.

Yun Xi saw that Su Ruoqi seemed absent-minded, so she went to him to comfort him.

"Su Ruoqi. Now is not the time to cheer up."

Yun Xi spoke calmly, then took the tool in her hand and handed it to Su Ruoqi.Then they went into the secret room together.

The queen took such extreme measures to temporarily silence the ministers.It seems to have played a calming role.

In the early morning, the queen was deliberately late for a long time.Dragging a long skirt, he went to the morning court.

According to the custom, every emperor, no matter how high his status is, should wear a dragon robe when he goes to court, and meet his ministers dignifiedly.There is no way to ignore it.

And the queen's actions today are obviously to anger those ministers, so that they can see clearly how many "traitors" there are.

The queen deliberately slowed down, walked to the dragon chair and sat down.Facing the ministers with a casual expression.

She dared to do this because she secretly murdered the minister's family.Presumably those ministers are not convinced and will die.She also remains fearless.

Several ministers in the hall secretly exchanged their hearts with their eyes.I am deeply dissatisfied.But in the face of the queen's despotic power, they are like unarmed civil servants and weak generals, who can only temporarily succumb.

Some ministers couldn't help feeling that the queen's changes were getting bigger and bigger.To go to court without wearing a dragon robe, to ignore their disobedience.

And the queen's wings are obviously getting richer day by day, and she has long stopped paying attention to the disobedience of a few courtiers in this area.

"Aiqing looks embarrassed. Why is that?" The queen looked at Lord Shang Shu and the other courtiers who had expressed dissatisfaction with her before, and asked with a smile.

Upon hearing the sound, Lord Shangshu immediately turned his attention to the queen and bowed slightly.

After the queen's revenge, the ministers calmed down a lot from making trouble for the queen.The court was much quieter for a while.

No matter how dissatisfied they were, they did not dare to express their emotions easily.

The Queen's vigilance has also been let down.Especially he became less and less concerned about the situation of Yunxi and Su Ruoqi.

The news brought back by the eyeliner made her feel that there would be nothing wrong with Su Ruoqi and Yun Xi for a while.It's just that she still has to keep an eye on their every move.

Yun Xi and Su Ruoqi's time to go out was reduced as much as possible.Based on all the angry things that happened today, they decided to work harder on digging tunnels.

In order to be able to escape from the capital as soon as possible, Li Ran also tried his best to help a lot.

These days of hard work were not in vain.The tunnel was dug deeper.Not far from success.

Thinking of this, Su Ruoqi took the tools and continued digging vigorously.

Seeing that Li Ran and Su Ruoqi were sweating profusely, Yunxi pulled out two pieces of silk cloth from his sleeves.He handed one to Li Ran, and took the other to help Su Ruoqi wipe the sweat off his forehead.

Su Ruoqi was moved by Yunxi's actions, he couldn't help but look up at Yunxi, and smiled at her.

Yunxi held the topographic map and looked at it for a while, guiding them in which direction to dig down.

Piles of loess were lifted up and covered the ground.A path leading forward is evident.

Li Ran dug the soil until his face was covered with mud.It looks like a cat, which makes people laugh.

"Sister Yunxi. Take the candle and light it."

Li Ran suddenly made a fuss and shouted at Yun Xi.Yun Xi then brought the candle closer to light it.

"It turned out to be a big rock. No wonder I couldn't dig it." Li Ran looked down along the light and said helplessly.

Yun Xi also saw that stone, and instantly felt as heavy as that stone.Su Ruoqi also came over when he heard the sound.

Li Ran suddenly had an idea, and dug the shovel towards the edge of the stone.Think of other ways to move the stone.

After working hard with Su Ruoqi, he finally bypassed the obstacle of stone.

After several days of digging tunnels together, frequent contact.The relationship between Li Ran, Yunxi and Su Ruoqi is also getting closer.

There seems to be a tacit understanding between them.Where Li Ran couldn't dig, Su Ruoqi dug.If Su Ruoqi can't dig it out, then Li Ran will come.

Yun Xi carefully guided beside her.Although the underground is dimly lit, it is silent in every way.But the three of them filled the place with chatter and laughter.

Days passed by, and it seemed that the tunnel was about to be dug.

At this time, Yunxi was very anxious.Su Ruoqi is nothing more than that.

Li Ran was digging, and noticed the expressions of Yun Xi and Su Ruoqi.Something is obviously wrong.

"What's the matter with you?" Li Ran was puzzled, and wiped the sweat off his face with a towel.then asked.

Yun Xi was silent, her eyes drooping.It seems thoughtful.He held the topographic map in his hand for a long time and did not take it back.

"When I went out today, I saw some people being hurt by the empress." After a long time, Yun Xi said slowly.

After hearing this, Li Ran comforted Yun Xi.Let her stop thinking about it.

What the queen did was getting more and more excessive, and even more ruthless.This was the source of Yunxi's worry.
