"Isn't this something that has been predicted for a long time? That's why I asked Uncle Guan for help."
Ming Lanruo used a spoon to carefully put Rhubarb's urine into a small porcelain bottle.
Da Huang is becoming more and more lazy recently. He urinates less and runs out to play day after day.
Guan Yuecheng nodded: "Don't worry, young lady, my identity as the head coach is sensitive, but disguise is the basic skill of an assassin, so I will definitely protect you."
Ming Lanruo put down the small bottle and looked at Guan Yuecheng: "No, Uncle Guan, it's because you have experienced many battles that you have to sit in the inner house to protect Xiao Xi and the people here instead of following me as a bodyguard."
Uncle Guan is a top assassin and has rich experience in fighting enemies and assassinating people, but Xiao Xi is her weak spot and she really doesn't trust him.
Guan Yuecheng frowned: "Although I trained the two girls Jing Ming and Chun He, they are too young. I am afraid they are still lacking in handling conspiracies."
Ming Lanruo smiled, gently held up Rhubarb, and rubbed its head with the tip of her nose: "Don't worry, I have the means to save my life! As long as they don't kill me with the first blow, I can fight back!"
"
Dahuang was rubbed so hard that all eight of her eyes rolled up. He was extremely impatient and used a few thin claws to push her nose away. Oh, I'm so annoyed. Don't stick!
If you rub it any more, all its fur will fall off! Don’t you think it’s bald enough?
Guan Yuecheng looked at the ferocious spider with yellow stripes all over its body in her hand, and got goosebumps all over his body.
How did the eldest lady manage to treat this guy as a pet? It’s scary!
…
Inside the palace
In Qingyun Hall, the hall is full of porcelain fragments.
"Disobedience, it's all disobedience, everyone deserves to die, you all deserve to die!!"
Emperor Ming was panting angrily, his eyes were scarlet red, and he roared madly to vent his anger, kicking and beating several palace maids and eunuchs until they screamed in agony.
Shangguan Hongye couldn't help but feel frightened when he saw his father acting like a madman.
How could his father, who had clearly been chatting and laughing with him before and coldly taught the emperor's mental skills, suddenly act like crazy? It reminded him of the last emperor of the previous dynasty who had once heard that he went crazy after taking medicine.
He couldn't help but wonder, were those pills that Cang Qiao gave his father before, really okay?
But Cang Qiao was obviously taking it with his father, and they often exchanged their experiences on taking the medicine.
That is definitely not a feeling that someone who has not taken medicine can express. His father is so suspicious that if Cang Qiao did not take medicine with him, he would definitely notice it.
Watching Emperor Ming suddenly pick up a vase and hit it hard on the head of a maid serving tea, causing the maid to scream miserably: "Ahhhhh--!"
The maid serving tea was lying on the ground with a broken head and blood, not knowing whether she was alive or dead. The remaining eunuchs and maids were trembling and begging for mercy: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, please spare my life."
But no one dared to escape!
Shangguan Hongye finally couldn't bear it any longer, rushed forward, grabbed Emperor Ming's wrist, and growled: "Father, please wake up."
As he said that, he glanced at the little eunuch kneeling aside and said angrily: "Get out of here and invite Jiu Qiansui to come over!"
Although he was disgusted by Cang Qiao, he had to admit that in terms of the ability to control his father's emotions, no one could compare to Cang Qiao!
"Don't go!" Unexpectedly, Emperor Ming said angrily.
The little eunuch who originally wanted to run away shivered and did not dare to move again.
Shangguan Hongye was stunned and frowned: "Father, even if you kill these palace people, you won't be able to solve the problem. Cang Qiao is right. Just investigate. The final result is all under your control."
middle!"
Emperor Ming took a deep breath, shook off Shangguan Hongye's hand, took a teapot and drank a large amount of water, trying to calm himself down.
He squinted at Shangguan Hongye, who was still standing, and chuckled contemptuously: "Why, you feel sorry for these lowly slaves and don't let me kill them to vent my anger, it's a woman's kindness!"
Shangguan Hongye's heart trembled, and he immediately knelt down on one knee: "Father, my son is worried that your attack on the people below will be known by those corrupt civil servants, and they will talk about it endlessly."
"Tsk - it's true, those damned things that deserve to be punished by the nine tribes, without Ming Yuanlang, another Xu Muyan comes, bah!" Ming Emperor gritted his teeth and sneered.
Shangguan Hongye was silent. He didn't want to conform to his father, probably because he felt guilty in his heart.
There is no general who does not admire and respect legends like Xiao Shuai and the Red Blood Legion, and he is no exception.
But as a prince, he also understood why his suspicious father set out to eradicate the Xiao family. His father believed that Xiao Shuai would not support his usurpation of the throne, so he might as well strike first!
Emperor Ming looked at his son and suddenly sneered: "Do you know why I didn't let you call Cang Qiao?"
Shangguan Hongye shook his head silently, he didn't know.
"Because he is good at everything with me, but he also feels guilty for his niece Ming Lanruo, so he is good at everything for her! I want him to kill Ming Lanruo, but I'm afraid he will never be willing!" Emperor Ming Leng
Coldly.
Shangguan Hongye raised his head and looked at Emperor Ming in disbelief: "Father, you...why do you want to kill Lan Ruo? She is the daughter of the Ming family and the princess of my son!"
It's the woman he wants to give a try to make her his true partner!
But he looked at his father's crimson and ferocious eyes and did not dare to say these words.
Emperor Ming said contemptuously: "Women? What kind of woman can't be obtained by becoming an emperor? Royal women are the decorations and tools of the lord, including your mother. They must be prepared to sacrifice themselves and die for the lord at any time. Otherwise, the glory and wealth will be so
Enjoyable?"
Shangguan Hongye's face turned pale and he clenched his fists involuntarily.
Yes, his queen mother...didn't she just die like this? After more than twenty years of companionship, my father's face never showed any sadness.
"You can give up your womanly kindness to sit securely in this position." Emperor Ming reached out and patted Shangguan Hongye's handsome face and said coldly.
Shangguan Hongye closed his eyes and said hoarsely: "Father... at least you can't kill Ming Lanruo now. The case of the Xiao family's annihilation was revealed. Ming Lanruo, the only half of the Xiao family's bloodline, suddenly died. This is a shame."
It is clearly telling the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty that there is something fishy about this case!"
He must save her, or at least convince his father!
Emperor Ming was silent for a while and sighed: "What you said makes sense, okay, I was just in a moment of anger and didn't think carefully."
He waved his hands in disgust: "Forget it, go ahead and call your uncle over. I have to discuss with him how to suppress this case."
Shangguan Hongye was overjoyed that his father had given up the idea of killing Lanruo, at least he would not kill her in the next few years.
He immediately clasped his fists respectfully: "Yes, Father, I will take my leave."
He sighed secretly, if this woman Ming Lanruo knew that he saved her life, she would feel better!
That eunuch Cang Qiao can't protect her this time!
Before Shangguan Hongye left, he ordered people to clean up the study room immediately and left easily.
By the time General Zhou Chen was pushed into the inner hall in response to the order, the inner hall was already clean and empty.
Emperor Ming leaned on his chair tiredly, waiting for Zhou Chen to greet him with great effort.
He just raised his head, sat on the dragon chair, and casually threw a red gold token in front of Zhou Chen with a clang: "You, go and kill Ming Lanruo, you can use whatever method you want, do it cleanly.
"
Zhou Chen was stunned for a moment, then he motioned to the attendant pushing the wheelchair to pick up the token. He couldn't hold back the ecstasy in his heart: "Yes, Your Majesty."
Emperor Ming's eyes were cold and he said: "If you need any help, use this token to mobilize the secret guards. Do not alert Dongchang or let King Qin know about your actions here."
