Chapter four hundred and ninety-eight the solution
The voice of the imperial guard suddenly came from outside the royal study room, which made Liu Mingzhi feel a little something bad in his heart. He looked at Li Ye who was tortured by poisonous insects on the ground with a gloomy expression. Liu Mingzhi looked at him anxiously.
Got Qinglian!
"Lian'er, remove the poison from His Majesty as soon as possible. No matter what happens outside the palace, don't be distracted. Everything has its own plan. Your mission is to help His Majesty get rid of the poison from the body as soon as possible!"
"I understand, husband, please be careful!"
Qinglian turned to look at Li Ye, who was rolling on the carpet, and tapped several acupuncture points on Li Ye's body with her jade fingers.
"Your Majesty, I'm offended!"
"The Gu insect is attached to your heart. It will take some time to pull it out. There will be some pain. I hope Your Majesty can bear it."
Liu Mingzhi looked at Qinglian who had started to help Li Ye remove the poison, and looked at the third princess who looked worried.
"Yan'er, while the imperial guards have not yet gathered in the imperial study, you should immediately go to the queen mother and the emperor's sister-in-law and invite them over. I estimate that my husband will most likely need them to step in to delay for a while.
opportunity."
"Okay, I understand, I will go right away!"
At this moment, the third princess did not bother to say some polite words to Liu Mingzhi to take care of herself. She straightened her palace clothes and trotted towards the palace of Nangong Meng and Chen Jie.
Liu Mingzhi slowly took off the Heavenly Sword from his waist and looked at Lao Zhou beside him.
"Old Zhou, let's go to the front of the palace first! We can delay it for a while. As long as the Imperial Guards don't rush in, we will stand still."
Lao Zhou glanced worriedly at Qinglian who was performing some puzzling behavior, nodded and followed Young Master Liu towards the front of the imperial study room.
Although he is an innate master, he knows nothing about the art of poison.
I know what I know, but I really don’t know how to solve it for myself.
If it was planted in his own body, he could use his internal strength to force it out. However, His Majesty has no martial arts skills at all, so he could only let King Bingjian, a concubine who is proficient in the art of poison, help eliminate the poisonous insects in His Majesty's body.
Liu Mingzhi and the two stopped in front of the imperial study room. One of them waited at the side of the door and listened quietly to the footsteps outside the imperial study room door.
The footsteps of the Imperial Guards became more and more intensive, and the expressions of the two men naturally became more solemn.
The two were not worried that the Imperial Guards would rush in and surround them. What they were worried about was that the Imperial Guards would be deceived and regard them as the thieves who murdered Li Ye.
Listening to the heart-rending roar of Queen Li Ye, their hearts were tightly twisted together.
With such a movement, people who don't know about it will definitely think that the people in the palace are doing something detrimental to Li Ye.
Ask yourself, if you were the imperial guard outside the palace, you would definitely think wrong if you didn't know the truth.
"Quick, surround the imperial study!"
Liu Mingzhi's face became gloomy as he listened to more and more footsteps outside the hall.
The imperial guards patrolled the Ouchi Palace for twelve hours non-stop, and it was not surprising to find Li Ye's shrill voice in the imperial study room. After all, they had to protect Li Ye's safety. If they couldn't find this, they would
He is no longer worthy of wearing the armor of the Imperial Guard.
But the time from the discovery of the movement in the imperial study to the time when the imperial guards gathered in the imperial study was too short.
Although the palace is not big, it is certainly not small. It is really unreasonable for all the imperial troops of such a large scale to arrive in such a short period of time.
If Li Yunlong, Li Baihong and the brothers had not rebelled against the previous batch of Forbidden Army, it would be understandable that they could be so fast. However, half of the current Forbidden Army are newly recruited recruits, and their speed is too fast.
It's a bit shockingly fast.
Compared to the group of tiger and wolf warriors under his command, the elite army was no less generous.
Thinking of what Fu Hai said before, Liu Mingzhi frowned.
It seems that the sudden increase in patrolling imperial troops in the harem is no accident!
Liu Mingzhi was able to estimate the approximate number of footsteps outside the palace based on his experience in leading the army, and Lao Zhou relied on his innate sense of perception to be able to detect the approximate number of troops outside the imperial study.
"Your Majesty, the situation is not good. There are at least 20,000 imperial troops in the gaps between the palaces connected to the Imperial Study Room, and they are surrounding the Imperial Study Room. There are also a large number of footsteps past the Fude Palace.
We are approaching the Imperial Study Room."
"It seems that every move we make is under the control of Queen Ren Qingrui. Although the Forbidden Army is elite, it takes less than a stick of incense to gather tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the palace."
"We estimate that there is a high probability that we have fallen into the queen's trap."
"If we have 10,000 people, we can still fight. If we have 20,000 people, we can fight to the death and take the general's head. If there are more, we have no choice but to find a way to escape."
"If we want to leave, it will be easy, but Your Majesty and you and the princess are at stake."
Liu Mingzhi nodded solemnly: "Now we can only rely on Lian'er to help His Majesty get rid of the poison in his body as soon as possible. As long as His Majesty's safety is out of the control of the man in black he mentioned, there are not enough guards outside the palace.
For concern."
"No matter how powerful the Emperor's order is, it cannot compare to His Majesty's personal presence."
Lao Zhou nodded heavily: "Then hold off, Ruizong, Wu Zong has a spirit in heaven, and he must protect your majesty from this predicament."
The footsteps outside the Imperial Study Room gradually stopped, and there was only a slight noise. Liu Mingzhi and Lao Zhou's hearts jumped, knowing that the Forbidden Army outside should have arranged an offensive and defensive formation.
Sure enough, the footsteps outside the palace were quiet for less than half a cup of tea, and a strong voice shouted outside.
"My lord, Tong Yang, the commander of the Imperial Guards, has come to see His Majesty the Emperor. May I ask if His Majesty is okay?"
Li Ye, who was at the rear of the palace, was tortured to death by the poisonous insects and naturally had no strength to answer Tong Yang's questions outside the palace.
"My lord, Tong Yang, the commander of the Imperial Guards, has come to see His Majesty the Emperor. May I ask if His Majesty is okay?"
After two consecutive inquiries and no reply, Tong Yang frowned and put his hand on the handle of the knife: "There is something wrong with the situation in the Imperial Study Room. I am ordering the brothers to prepare to rescue Your Majesty!"
"Got the order!"
The deputy capital commander You Wenzhuo waved the command flag in his hand to convey Tong Yang's order. In an instant, Yang Tai and other five imperial guards commanders immediately ordered the impenetrable imperial guards surrounding the imperial study to prepare for an attack.
Listening to the sound of swordsmen being unsheathed and bows and arrows being strung outside the palace, Liu Mingzhi took a deep breath, opened the palace door and walked out.
"You guys give up. Without His Majesty's order, who would have allowed you to gather in large numbers and surround the imperial study? Do you want to rebel?"
Looking at Liu Mingzhi walking out of the palace in a hurry, except for Yang Tai, the other generals of the Forbidden Army were a little surprised. They didn't know when Young Master Liu entered the palace.
The commander-in-chief, Tong Yang, raised his sword and saluted Young Master Liu.
"At the end of the year, Tong Yang, the commander of the imperial army, met King Bingjian. He is a thousand years old."
"No gift!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Liu Mingzhi looked around at the imperial soldiers who surrounded the imperial study on all sides, and breathed out softly: "General Tong, what does this mean? Do you know what the crime is with leading troops to surround the imperial study for no reason?"
"Report to the prince, the general will naturally know, but..."
He looked into the imperial study room with the same hesitant expression: "But at the end of the day, I heard from the patrol officers that there was a strange noise in the imperial study room, which seemed to be His Majesty's voice. It seemed that His Majesty was suffering great pain!"
"The general was worried that some thieves had kidnapped His Majesty, so he had no choice but to lead troops to protect him."
"Oh? General Tong said that this king is the thief who kidnapped His Majesty?"
"I don't dare, I have no such intention. May I ask how your Majesty is doing now? Can I bring someone to pay your respects to His Majesty?"
"Your Majesty is feeling unwell. I am sending someone to treat your Majesty. I cannot disturb you at this time. Can you please wait for a moment?"
