Daughter Shenghua

Chapter 131 Mysterious Man

As soon as the banquet was over, the queen mother hurriedly called Xue Qing into the palace.

Because Emperor Jing didn't want to see Xue Qing.When Xue Qingguan returned to his post at that time, he had a very stiff fight with the Queen Mother because of this.Xue Qing also knew that the emperor didn't want to see him today, so he didn't attend, but asked for leave early.The emperor was just as he thought, and agreed without saying a word.

Xue Qing's sudden entry into the palace made Emperor Jing even more convinced of his guess.

"Lu You, contact them!"

Lu You was shocked, he knew who the "they" the emperor was referring to.Those people are not easily invited out.This is the secret weapon left by the former emperor.The reason why the empress dowager dared not do anything to the emperor these years.What I'm afraid of is probably this secret weapon. Lu You has always understood it in his heart, but he dare not say these words in front of the emperor.Since ancient times, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. He is the person closest to the emperor, so he naturally has the best understanding.

In the middle of the night, when it was supposed to be bedtime, Emperor Jing got up suddenly, Lu You lit a lantern, and the two quietly came to a side hall.

After arriving at the side hall, Lu You stood guard at the door, and Emperor Jing pushed the door open and entered alone.

Entering the side hall, Emperor Jing strode towards the somewhat blackened dragon chair in the hall, and sat down.

He tapped rhythmically on the dragon head next to the armrest of the dragon chair a few times.A few buzzes came out, and in a blink of an eye, the dragon chair and the people on it disappeared.

Emperor Jing slid down the ground together with the seat.This is the second time he has come to this place, the last time he was brought here when the first emperor was around, and the first emperor had instructed not to use the people here unless there was a life-and-death crisis.

The dragon chair slid underground for a while and finally stopped in a dark place.The moment Emperor Jing's feet landed on the ground, "bang bang bang" remembered the sound of a torch being lit, and the sudden fire made Emperor Jing close his eyes and take a while to get used to the sudden light.

Like the place I came to that time, this is a cave-like place.There are already masked people waiting here.

Emperor Jing followed him to a bigger cave. There were more masked men waiting there holding torches. At the end of the crowd, there was a slightly pale man in white clothes sitting there quietly. He was also the only one not wearing a mask. The person in the mask, his whole person is a bit out of tune with the surrounding atmosphere.

Seeing Emperor Jing coming, he did not intend to get up at all, and Emperor Jing was not surprised either.It was the same when he came with the late emperor last time. Although he failed to enter the hall last time, he saw the late emperor saluting the head of the people.

Seeing that Emperor Jing had arrived, the man in white casually said, "The late Emperor should have told you about our rules!"

Emperor Jing quickly said: "I understand the rules! This time things are a little tricky, please help me!"

"Your Majesty is being polite. I am a businessman. You pay me to do things, and everyone takes what they need." The man in white said.

Emperor Jing also knew the behavior style of these people, so he didn't care, and said: "I want to know everything about the Empress Dowager!"

The man in white chuckled, "The emperor's request is a bit strange!"

"If it wasn't difficult, how could I find you!"

"Okay! I agree to this matter. I wonder how much the emperor plans to pay?"

Emperor Jing was silent for a while, "Let's make a price!"

The man in white smiled and said, "The first emperor paid the ownership of three states and the taxes of five cities for 20 years in return. I won't embarrass you, how about just two states?"

Emperor Jing's face was a bit ugly. At the beginning, he spent such a high price to overthrow the Yun family, but now it is the Xiao family's world. These people dared to speak so loudly, and they were a little unhappy for a while.

Seeing Emperor Jing's ugly face, the man in white smiled lightly and said, "I'm not in a hurry, the emperor can think about it slowly, and you can notify me anytime when you're done."

Emperor Jing's eyelids twitched, and the late emperor couldn't find out the details of these people. He only knew that they were extremely powerful. As long as they could pay the price, they could accomplish anything, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Deal!"

"Hahaha, the emperor is really a straightforward person! Since the emperor is so straightforward, I will give you a small gift! Well, the agreement has been fulfilled, the emperor please rest assured to wait for the news, someone will come to receive the reward after the completion. "The man in white laughed and left.

A moment later, Emperor Jing returned to the side hall with doubts, but when he walked out of the side hall, he saw Lu You leaning against the door with a pale face, and there was still a large amount of blood on the ground outside the door.

"Lu You, what happened?"

Seeing that the emperor finally came out, Lu You breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Majesty, shortly after you entered, this place was attacked by men in black. Although the slaves fought bloody, they were almost broken by those people. Just then, some masked men appeared from nowhere to help, and the men in black were gone." can succeed."

"The men in black? Do you know their details?"

Lu You shook his head with a tired look on his face, after a fight, he was seriously injured at this moment.

At this moment, Emperor Jing remembered the little gift that the man in white said.Could this be what he was talking about?

"Let's go!" Emperor Jing pondered for a moment before walking out.

Lu You held his chest with his hands and held his breath, followed behind and walked out.

After everyone went out, a black figure entered the side hall, and left quietly after some investigation.

……

In a remote small house in the capital, a group of men in black knelt on the ground and sweated profusely.

"You mean to say that you have failed again? You can't even handle an old eunuch. What use do I need you for?" A leader wearing a black mask scolded angrily.

The team leader quickly said: "I beg your master to spare your life. The subordinates were about to succeed, but some people wearing masks suddenly appeared from nowhere. Their martial arts are so powerful that they are so powerful that the subordinates can't attack for a while, and they are afraid of being alarmed." The guards in the palace had to withdraw."

"Mask man? Tell me carefully." The leader was a little puzzled.

The team leader hurriedly told the story of meeting the masked man carefully.

The leader let them go.

After everyone withdrew, a man walked out of the inner hall. If Yunxi was here, he would recognize Xue Qing.

Xue Qing said: "How does Mr. Yan view what happened tonight?"

The leader took off his mask and said: "Master Xiang, this matter is a bit strange! How could the prince propose to overhaul the Shoukang Palace for no reason, and those masked people who appeared tonight have never been seen before!"

Xue Qing nodded, "If you guess correctly, those masked men are the secret weapons in the hands of the emperor. As for the prince...someone should have arranged it! I just don't know who came out to disturb the situation, I'm afraid he is not that good Teeth! Hmph!"

"Master Xiang, do we want to investigate the crown prince?" Mr. Yan asked.

Xue Qing gently raised a hand to interrupt him, "Our top priority now is the matter of the Shoukang Palace. We must not let others interfere in it. There are too many secrets in the Shoukang Palace. Once it is revealed, the mother's many years of planning We will be destroyed once, and we will die without a burial!"

"Yes! This subordinate understands!"
