The Peerless Concubine of the King's Favorite

Chapter 404 Breaking into the palace, past events (1)
Zhao Shenghao quickly took down the letterbox, and under the light of the torch, he scanned the incoming information into his eyes.

Suddenly, his pupils shrank, looked at Zhao Shengqian and Zhao Shengxi whose clothes were a little messy, and their bodies were stained with enemy blood, and said coldly: "Zhao Shenggao has forced the palace."

"He really did that." Zhao Sheng slammed his fist hard on the saddle, and his gentle eyes narrowed.

"This was originally his plan. He asked me to get rid of you, and he took the opportunity to launch a palace coup to force my father to order me to be the new emperor. However, my fate is the same as yours now." Zhao Shengxi said coldly Having said that, it's just that the anger deep in those cold eyes can't be concealed.

Zhao Shenghao's eyes passed over Zhao Shengxi's face calmly, and finally fell on Zhao Shengqian: "We must go back immediately."

Zhao Shengqian nodded, and immediately ordered the whole team to return to Jianning capital.

Qianqing Palace

In the inner hall, both Zhao Shenggao and Zhao Cong were in a stalemate.

Zhao Chenggao sighed, and shook his head slowly: "Father, why are you doing this? Your prince, your favorite son, and the bravest son have all died in the mountains outside the city at this moment, becoming food for wild beasts. You I will also take care of those sons who have not yet matured. Your throne can only be passed on to me."

"You!" Zhao Cong's eyes cracked when he heard that.

Zhao Shenggao turned a blind eye and continued: "Don't worry, my son will not kill you, I will let you live well, and be your supreme emperor with peace of mind, and see how I govern Dachu Jiangshan, let you know, only I am you The most outstanding son, only I can grow the Great Chu to the point where foreign countries submit."

Speaking of the latter, Zhao Shenggao's clear eyes were filled with scarlet blood, reflecting the color of madness.

"You're already crazy!" Zhao Cong breathed heavily, shook his head slowly, looked at Zhao Chenggao and gritted his teeth.

"Hehe..." Zhao Chenggao shook his body a few times, as if he was so weak that he would fall to the ground at any time.Seeing Yin Ji behind her, her eyes were full of worry.

He seemed to be crying and smiling, and met Zhao Cong's eyes with a complicated expression: "Yeah, I've been crazy for a long time. Since I knew that I shouldn't have come to this world at all, I know that you hate me so much, hate me so much. I was crazy when I was my mother. From then on, my biggest wish is for you to admit your mistakes to me one day and admit that I am your best son. Oh, right... In addition to this wish, I also have another pleasure, which is to torture the son born to you and that folk woman... Hahaha... These are all the motivations that support my unwillingness to die on the sickbed."

"You!" Zhao Cong gasped suddenly, his body went limp, as if he was about to faint.

"Your Majesty!" Queen Qiao and Tianxi exclaimed in unison, and supported him.

"Father!" Zhao Yahou shouted worriedly, but was unable to run over because of the steel knife on her neck.

"Doctor Zhang, what are you still doing in a daze? Come and see Your Majesty!" Empress Qiao shouted at Zhou Buqiu in a panic.

Zhou Buqiu rolled his eyes, walked over quickly, picked up Zhao Cong's pulse, and blocked the sight of Zhao Chenggao and others with his back.

Regarding this, Zhao Shenggao just turned his eyes indifferently, without being moved in the slightest.

He did not stop Queen Joe's order.As a result, the palace is under his control, and he believes that no one can slip away from him.Secondly, even if he asked Yin Ji to go, I'm afraid they would not be willing.

Suddenly, a piece of warm iron was stuffed into Zhou Buqiu's palm.With a fixed expression, he put it into his cuffs calmly.

"Your Majesty, you just woke up, don't get angry easily, otherwise you will attack your heart with poison." Zhou Buqiu didn't deliberately suppress the volume so that Zhao Shenggao and others could hear it.

Zhao Cong nodded, and his breath seemed to ease up.

Zhou Buqiu retreated, bowed his head and walked towards the side hall.

"Where are you going?" Suddenly, Yin Ji stopped him in a cold voice.

Zhou Buqiu replied lightly: "I want to make some medicinal soup for your Majesty to stabilize the condition."

"No need, I have the antidote here, if you eat it, you will be able to detoxify." Yin Ji took out a porcelain bottle and threw it to Zhou Buqiu.

The latter hurriedly took it, his eyes flashed.

"Hmph, how dare we use your poisonous woman's medicine? And ask Imperial Doctor Zhang to dispense the medicine for His Majesty." Queen Qiao stood up, showing the majesty of a queen, and looked at Yin Ji coldly and arrogantly.

Yin Ji raised her eyes for a glance, lowered the corners of her eyes, and stopped talking.

Zhao Chenggao smiled slightly, with the corners of his mouth raised: "In this case, there will be an imperial physician."

Zhou Buqiu nodded slightly, turned around and entered the side hall.

After Zhao Cong fell into a coma, for the convenience of taking care of him, he temporarily set up a pharmacy next to the inner hall, so that the imperial doctor could prepare the medicine.Now, it is this room that Zhou Buqiu goes to.

After his figure disappeared around the corner, Zhao Shenggao's voice sounded faintly again: "Go and help Doctor Zhang alone."

"Yes."

After one member of the Imperial Forest Army agreed, someone followed him quietly.

Seeing this scene, Empress Qiao's eyes flickered slightly, but Zhao Cong couldn't see anything unusual.

In the side hall of Qianqing Palace, the air is filled with the smell of medicinal herbs.

Zhou Buqiu stood in front of the herb cabinet and picked herbs calmly as usual, he didn't seem to see the Imperial Forest Army hiding behind the pillar.

Behind the curtain, the Imperial Forest Army who was ordered to monitor Zhou Buqiu stood behind the huge palace pillar, slightly opened the curtain with the handle of a knife, and secretly stared at Zhou Buqiu's back.

I saw him slowly put the herbs into the medicine jar, add water and firewood, and slowly fan the cattail fan...

Everything seems to be the same.

After waiting for almost an hour, the watcher's eyes were sour, but he didn't see anything unusual.

Finally, Zhou Buqiu poured out the medicine from the medicine jar, cleaned up the medicine residue and put it in the basket, and carried the basket to the outside of the hall.

When he came to the pillar where the watchers were hiding, a steel knife that had not been unsheathed suddenly came across, blocking Zhou Buqiu's way. "What are you going to do?"

Asked in a cold voice, with a hint of killing intent.It seemed that if Zhou Buqiu said a wrong word, this person would make his blood splatter on the spot.

Zhou Buqiu calmly lifted the basket in his hand, the black medicine residue inside was still steaming, and the pungent medicine smell made the watchers who came to check couldn't help pinching their noses to avoid it.

"What's this?" he asked.

Zhou Buqiu said flatly: "This is medicine dregs. After boiling the medicine, the medicine dregs must be cleaned up in time, lest people who don't know get it and cause trouble."

"You can't go out." The surveillance person frowned and refused.

Zhou Buqiu smiled calmly and said, "It's okay. Then I can ask the military master to take it out and throw it away."

As he spoke, he handed over the basket in his hand again.

It has to be said that the taste of this medicine made by Zhou Buqiu is really unbearable.Seeing the basket being handed over, the man couldn't help avoiding it.
