Farm widows have space, pick up a treasure on the way to escape

Chapter 389 Kneel down and say something

King Chen felt a little horrified, and hurriedly put the small bottle back to its place, and asked Lu Baichuan, "What are these?"

Lu Baichuan replied: "These are some poisons prepared by my wife. I think your highness can use them."

King Chen raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you talking about poisoning Daoping?"

Lu Baichuan shook his head: "Yes, Your Majesty."

King Chen's face instantly darkened, and Lu Baichuan knelt on the ground.

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

King Chen spoke in a heavy tone, with a hint of getting angry.

Lu Baichuan said: "I dare you, Your Highness, to give it a try! There is a kind of poison that only makes the body ill but does not harm life. You can use this feature to make the emperor think that there is something wrong with Daoping's elixir, so that he will no longer use it." Trust Daoping. This can also give us an opportunity."

King Chen's expression softened slightly after listening to his explanation. He thought that Lu Baichuan meant to poison the emperor directly, which would be extremely unfilial.

Although the emperor didn't like him, he was his father after all, and he couldn't have such unfilial thoughts no matter what.

"Is it really not harmful to the body?"

"My wife's medical skills are very good. The things she prepares can be used with confidence. I can guarantee it with my life."

Before coming, he discussed this matter with He Jiu Niang, just to ask He Jiu Niang if he had such a poison, so that King Chen would not be under too much psychological pressure when using it.

He Jiuniang's answer at that time was: "No, I can match it for you for the time being."

Then I gave it to him the next morning and explained the usage and dosage.

King Chen stretched out his hand to stop him: "No, I believe you. It's just that this matter is somewhat risky, so we should wait until I go to persuade my father first before talking about it."

Lu Baichuan naturally nodded in agreement. No matter what, he had to give King Chen time to think about it.

In his heart, King Chen trusted He Jiuniang's medical skills, otherwise Lin Yiping would not be so afraid. Moreover, Mrs. Lu was good at cooking, designing clothes, and knew medicine and business. She could do almost anything. She was indeed a capable person.

Lu Baichuan was his, and his wife naturally wanted to be with him. He had such an advantage, and it would be a pity not to take advantage of it.

However, drugging the emperor was too dangerous, and he couldn't afford to be accused of treason if he was not careful.

Lu Baichuan left temporarily, and King Chen asked Cheng Meng to take Lu Baichuan to get to know the brothers below, which would be convenient when he needs help later.

King Chen took advantage of this moment and hurried into the palace to meet the Holy Emperor.

The old emperor was obsessed with cultivating Taoism, and he had been practicing seclusion recently. He didn't go to court and didn't see anyone. He had a whole set of steps to cultivate immortality, and all the officials in the court tried to force him to death, but it was no use. King Chen was somewhat unsure of himself this time.

But if he didn't try it himself, how could he be so cruel as to poison his father?
Standing at the entrance of the Emperor's Palace, King Chen took a deep breath and was ready to be scolded.

"Go and tell your father that I have discovered important matters related to Master Daoping and ask to see your father!"

The eunuch at the door responded respectfully and went in to report. As for whether he would see him or not, it would depend on the emperor's mood.

The eunuch first said that King Chen wanted to see him, but the old emperor refused without saying a word. Then he said that he had found out about Daoping Zhenren. The old emperor subconsciously felt that King Chen was here to cause trouble, and he didn't want to see him anymore.

"No. Let him go out of the palace as soon as he is fine. Pay attention to the people's livelihood and don't stare at me all the time. It's annoying." The old emperor waved his hand impatiently. The eunuch responded and turned around and walked out. Just as he hurried to the door , the old emperor said again: "Forget it, let him come in."

Since it was about Master Daoping, the old emperor was worried that if he really didn't care, King Chen would take matters into his own hands to solve the problem. Master Daoping had two brushes, and he must protect them.

The eunuch agreed respectfully and went to ask King Chen to come in.

The palace outside was brightly lit, but where the old emperor was, there was only one candlestick. The space was so large that the light from the candlestick was insignificant. Everything was dark, giving people a gloomy feeling.

"My son sees my father."

King Chen knelt down to salute, but the old emperor did not let him get up. His meaning was very clear, he knelt down to say something.

"Old Third, you should know that I don't care what I care about. On weekdays, I can ignore whatever you do, as long as it is beneficial to the people, but don't think that I will really hand over all the power to you. .”

The emperor's voice sounded in the empty palace, seeming a little hollow, and his tone was calm, but it was vaguely threatening and intimidating.

King Chen lowered his head and said, "What my father said is that my sons and ministers do not dare to make independent decisions."

"You do not dare?"

The old emperor's tone became more serious: "You have already started to investigate Daoping, what else are you afraid of? I want to live longer, in your eyes, is it so ridiculous?"

The old emperor's anger had reached its peak, and his eyes were quenched with poison as he stared at King Chen closely, as if the person kneeling in front of him was not his son, but his lifelong enemy.

"Father, I have never thought of it this way! It was not that I took the initiative to investigate Daoping Daoping, but when I was investigating other cases, I found Daoping Daoping. At present, we have obtained enough evidence, and there is no witness. All proofs are in place!”

King Chen knew that the old emperor was angry, but he still chose to go on.

He brought all the evidence handed over by Lu Baichuan, hoping that in the face of the evidence, the old emperor could rein in his horse.

"What case? What evidence? Third brother, third brother, you are really getting better and better!"

The old emperor was so angry that his beard was trembling, thinking that this was simply nonsense.

"Master Daoping is just a Taoist priest. In this life, he is just pursuing immortality like me. How can he be involved in any case?"

The old emperor made it clear that he wanted to protect Daoping and had a tough attitude. If it were anyone else, he would not dare to say any more.

King Chen was also a little hesitant, but he thought that it would be useless to go back like this after he came here, so he still frowned and said: "There was a case of missing children in Jingzhou, all of them were three or five years old. The minister's man was found in a Taoist temple outside the city.

The Taoist priest in the Taoist temple personally confessed that the purpose of capturing those children was to use their heart blood to refine elixirs, and the son's men intercepted the letter sent from the Taoist temple to the capital, which was obviously in contact with Daoping.

Not only children, but also some young girls from good families were killed. They were captured to collect blood, and their blood dried up and died. Even if they were lucky enough to survive, they were sent to various brothels to eke out a living. This was a huge blood chain. The Dongting people’s conspiracy to invade our country, please give me a clear warning from my father! "

He finished speaking in one breath, and took out a series of evidence from his arms and handed it over. The emperor did not accept it, but slapped the table with his hand.

"Absurd! Third child, do you know what you are talking about? How could this happen to me, Beiyan, whose country is peaceful and peaceful? In order to deal with Daoping, you went too far in this drama!"

The old emperor pointed at King Chen, his eyes blood red.

King Chen looked at him neither humble nor arrogant, gritted his teeth and asked, "Does my father really not believe it, or is he trying to cover it up? My father takes the elixir every day. Didn't he find that there is a strong smell of blood in the elixir?"
