Live up to the country

Seeing that Eunuch Tong refused to hand over the antidote, Liu Hongjing couldn't help roaring: "Continue to the punishment!"

"Ah—" Eunuch Tong screamed, but he refused to hand it over to the death.Liu Hongjing left with a flick of his sleeves and returned to the palace. He rushed into the Qingning Palace angrily. When Duanmu Yunji saw him coming in, she bowed down lightly, as if she had no fear at all.

Liu Hongjing walked up to her, raised his hand and slapped her without saying a word.

"You—" Duanmu Yunji gritted his teeth and glared at him. At this moment, Liu Huo came in. He knelt down beside his mother, supported her, and looked back at his father with questioning eyes: "Father!"

"That slave dog is yours. Go and bring me the antidote and the slave dog's head, otherwise I won't let you go!" Liu Hongjing pointed at Duanmu Yunji and said coldly, then turned and strode away. go.

"Mother's queen." Liu Huo helped his mother up, looking at her swollen face distressedly.

Duanmu Yunji sat down and said bitterly: "I don't want to endure this kind of life for a day!" The sky outside was dark, and the cold wind mixed with heavy rain rustled the window sills. dense.

"Mother, is the time ripe?" Liu Huo asked in a low voice.

"It mainly depends on Nanxing's position." Duanmu Yunji looked at Liu Huo.

Liu Huo walked to the window, looked at the sudden torrential rain, and sighed deeply.

"What's wrong?" Duanmu Yunji asked.

"My father-in-law didn't reply to the letter sent by me, and I don't know what he thinks." Liu Huo said annoyed.

Duanmu Yunji stared, pondered for a while and said: "If the King of Nanxing does not help us, we will still be weak in power. We are not 100% sure about this matter, so we cannot act rashly."

Liu Huo nodded: "Empress Mother is right, Emperor Father is still here, we can't easily shake him, so we have to wait for the right time."

"How is your relationship with the princess?" Duanmu Yunji asked suddenly.

When Liu Huo mentioned the princess, his face darkened.

"What? You neglected her?" Duanmu Yunji looked at her son displeased.

"I'm really not interested in her. I want to accept my side concubine, but she refuses. It's really annoying!" Liu Huo sat down in annoyance, picked up his teacup and took a sip of tea.

"Accommodating the side concubine? At this time, you are thinking about accepting the side concubine? You should get along well with Ma Yisha and get pregnant with a son and a half soon, and her father will not stop helping you." Duanmu Yunji was annoyed looking at him.

Liu Huo was speechless, just sat there sullenly.

"Son! When you ascend the throne and become emperor, are you afraid that there will be no women?" Duanmu Yunji walked up to him and said while holding his shoulder.

"Alas—" Liu Huo sighed, and said, "Okay, I'll go back and cancel the matter of Princess Nazai, and then I'll check with her about her father's situation."

When Duanmu Yunji heard what he said, a smile appeared on her face.

"What about Eunuch Tong now?" Liu Huo asked.

"For the time being, you can't quarrel with the emperor too much. You can ask him to understand the medicine, and then find a way to let him escape by himself, and go out of the palace to hide for a while. This person has been by my side since childhood, and he is loyal. We will succeed in the future." The great cause cannot be separated from him." Duanmu Yunji said.

Liu Huo nodded, pondered for a while and said, "How can I make him escape? Father said he wanted his head."

Duanmu Yunji paced around the room, walking back and forth but couldn't think of a good way.

"Fake death!" Liu Huo's eyes lit up as if he suddenly remembered something.

"Fake death?" Duanmu Yunji looked at him suspiciously.

"Yes, Tong Fu'an once showed me his Ice and Fire Magic Secret Book. It has a section on the autism meridian, which can fake death for twelve hours. My son will go to prison right away, ask him to take out the antidote, and pretend to kill him , and then send him out of the palace, find a place to place him secretly." Liu Huo said.

"Okay, then hurry up and do it." Duanmu Yunji agreed.Liu Huo got up, said goodbye to her mother and hurried to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

The jailers who were executing the sentence stopped when they saw Prince Jing approaching, as if they were paying respects to the king. When Eunuch Tong saw him, there was a little hope in his eyes, like a drowning man suddenly grabbing a life-saving straw.

"My lord!" he called out weakly.Liu Huo looked at him coldly, and said, "Tong Fu'an! Don't resist! Hand over the antidote!"

"Prince—" Eunuch Tong looked at him with wide eyes, Liu Huo blinked at him, and then he lowered his eyelids.

"Do you still want to continue to be tortured?" Liu Huo frowned.

"My lord, save this servant, if this servant hands over the antidote, the emperor will kill him!" Eunuch Tong crawled to Liu Huo's feet and hugged his leg.

Liu Huo looked down at him, and said viciously: "You have committed a heinous crime, how can I save you? Hand over the antidote, I will let you die!"

Eunuch Tong pretended to cry, and said: "Okay! Tong has been with the empress and the prince for so many years, and it is a blessing to die in the hands of the prince. The antidote is under the floor of the slave's residence. Open it and go to the ninth square from the count. Find it, my lord, let's do it!"

Liu Huo turned his head and said to the head of the punishment department: "Did you hear clearly? Hurry up and report to the emperor to verify the truth!"

"Yes!" The head of the punishment department hurriedly turned and ran away.

Liu Huo scolded the jailer standing beside him: "Everyone back down, Tong Fu'an has been with me for many years, I want to say a few words to him."

"Yes!" The jailers backed away one after another.

"Do you understand what I mean? Liuhuo asked in a low voice.

"Understood." Eunuch Tong replied.

"After going out, the empress will order someone to take care of her, and she will temporarily hide outside to recuperate her wounds. Don't make any movement, remember!" Liu Huo urged.

"My slave will remember, thank you, Mrs. Wang, for your kindness." Eunuch Tong said.

Liu Huo nodded slightly, Eunuch Tong let go of the hand holding his thigh, and sat aside blankly.It was quiet in the prison, and the smell of blood mixed with musty smell made Liu Huo involuntarily cover his mouth and nose.

After a while, the head of the Ministry of Punishment returned to report to him that the antidote had been found and handed over to the emperor, who decreed that the execution could begin.

Liu Huo pretended to raise his palm, and suddenly slapped his head, but when it touched the top of his head, he lost all strength, and Eunuch Tong also sealed off the blood vessels in his body, his face was pale, and he collapsed to the ground.

"Come here! Autopsy!" Liu Huo shouted.

The head of the punishment department came over, passed Eunuch Tong's breath with his hand, and said, "He's dead."

"Hurry up and report to the emperor!" Liu Huo ordered.

"Yes!"

"Come here, wrap up his body, transport it out of the palace, and send it to Guishoupo in the western suburbs to throw it away and feed it to the dogs." Liu Huo ordered.

"Yes!" Several jailers came over, wrapped Eunuch Tong's body in a broken mat, and carried it out of the prison.Guishoupo is specially used to discard some unclaimed corpses that died in vain. There are piles of bones, wild dogs running around, not to mention people, probably even ghosts dare not approach, so it is called Guishoupo.

Seeing that everything was in order, Liu Huo came out of the prison, he winked at his entourage, and his entourage hurriedly ran into the rain and fog, and followed the cart carrying the corpse away.
