When this name came out of Eunuch Liu's mouth, everyone was a little surprised.
Although King Pingxi has been guarding the border for many years and has been back to Beijing for a while, he has only entered the palace a handful of times, which makes everyone's impression of King Pingxi very weak.
Emperor Zhaochu's eyes darkened and he glanced in the direction outside the palace, his eyes bottomless.
Why is he here? Could it be that he also wants to get involved in this matter?
"pass!"
"Yes!" Eunuch Liu immediately retreated.
Soon, King Ping Xi was pushed in by Wu Feng in a wheelchair.
Next to Wu Feng is Wu Peiya.
Xie Yao turned her head and looked over, met Wu Peiya's eyes, and nodded almost imperceptibly.
King Pingxi's eyes were always fixed on Emperor Zhaochu, his eyes unblinking, and his emotions were so complicated that it made people palpitate.
Emperor Zhaochu also looked back calmly, his eyes as calm as ever.
"I have met the emperor." King Pingxi spoke, his voice was very low, and there was also a hint of hoarseness about the vicissitudes of life.
"King Pingxi, why did you enter the palace today?" Emperor Zhaochu looked at King Pingxi sitting in the wheelchair with deep eyes.
King Pingxi did not speak immediately. He glanced sideways at Xie Yao and raised his lips into a smile.
Xie Yao saw this and nodded in response.
Seeing this scene, Emperor Zhaochu's eyes narrowed deeply and flashed with a cold light.
Seeing this, the queen frowned, pondered for a moment, and said: "It is rare for King Pingxi to enter the palace, so it is elegant not to be disturbed by trivial matters. If the emperor has something to do, you can go ahead and leave it to my concubine to deal with it.
"
King Pingxi looked at the queen with a calm expression, "No need. This king is here just for Princess Han."
Let’s get straight to the point!
No secrets!
The queen's heart was slightly shaken and her face was a little embarrassed.
She guessed the purpose of King Pingxi entering the palace, but she didn't expect that King Pingxi would be so straightforward.
Does King Pingxi no longer care about the emperor?
Thinking of this, she glanced in the direction of the emperor.
Emperor Zhaochu's face remained as expressionless as before, showing no sign of relief, only his eyes were still dark.
King Pingxi's face remained as usual and his voice was calm, "I am very concerned about King Han's disappearance for several days. During this period, I have secretly collected some clues. I originally wanted to go to the palace and hand it over to the emperor, but I didn't expect that Princess Han was also there.
In this case, I will take out all these clues to find out the truth of the matter as soon as possible."
After saying that, he looked back at Wu Feng behind him and said, "Take out everything."
"Yes." Wu Feng responded and took out a small package.
This package containing clues instantly attracted a lot of attention, including the soldier who also looked over, his heart beating wildly subconsciously!
Wu Feng placed the package on the ground, opened it directly, and spread out the contents one by one.
Emperor Zhaochu's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's. He glanced at the things on the ground and his expression turned cold.
Xie Yao took one look and recognized it.
Those things were basically things obtained after Wu Feng ordered people to go back to the military camp to investigate the day before yesterday.
"I learned that King Han rushed to the military camp because many people in the military camp had diarrhea, so he took the doctor to the military camp and found the source of everyone's diarrhea." Halfway through, King Pingxi did not reveal the answer, but
He cast a glance at the soldier.
"Who are you?"
The soldiers were frightened and saluted quickly, "If I go back to King Pingxi, the younger one is a soldier in King Han's camp."
"What is in front of you?" King Pingxi asked again, his tone was calm, as if he was just asking casually.
"Yes...yes..." The soldier stuttered with guilt and did not dare to speak.
The cold light in King Pingxi's eyes flashed away, he turned to look at Emperor Zhaochu, and continued in a low voice: "I discovered that the source of diarrhea among everyone is a poisonous mushroom. Fresh mushrooms are brightly colored, and they are very noticeable at a glance.
It is known to be poisonous, but after cooking, the bright color fades away, making it just like ordinary mushrooms."
"If someone is willing to cook the mushrooms first, and then add them to the meals in the military camp, it will make people unable to prevent them. The worst result is diarrhea for a few days, which is not life-threatening."
The soldier glanced at the packet of poisonous powder in front of him, wishing he could swallow the packet of poisonous powder in his stomach! He was extremely panicked!
When the queen saw the soldier's expression, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, a deep coldness flashed across her eyes, and she had a bad feeling in her heart.
How could King Pingxi investigate so clearly and dare to enter the palace behind Xie Yao?
King Pingxi seemed not to notice the changes in the expressions of everyone in the palace. After talking about the poisonous mushrooms, he continued to speak slowly, "I have recorded the poisonous mushrooms in detail and put them in the package. In addition,
In addition, I also gained something at the top of the mountain where the landslide occurred."
"The soil on the top of the mountain has traces of being pried open, and footprints are left behind, which can prove that this landslide was caused by someone. The specific person who did it is still under investigation. Once the results are available, we will
The king will return to the palace and report to the emperor."
The sharp cold light in Emperor Zhaochu's eyes flashed away, and his expression was profound and unpredictable, "King Pingxi is interested."
"Your Majesty's words are serious," King Pingxi nodded and said softly: "King Han is my nephew. Naturally, I can't just sit back and ignore him and let some people with good intentions persecute him! But this matter has not been thoroughly investigated. Please ask Your Majesty.
Keep it secret."
"If this matter is leaked, it may be detrimental to Prince Han's Palace. Although Prince Han's life or death is uncertain, Prince Han's Palace is still there, and Princess Han is still there. If the face of Prince Han's Palace is damaged, it will inevitably damage the face of the royal family."
As he spoke, he looked at the queen and concubine Jing. Although he didn't say a word, his intention was obvious.
"Don't worry, Prince Pingxi. Prince Han is my son, so naturally I won't say a word to anyone else." Concubine Jing said sternly.
The Queen's phoenix eyes were cold, "I am the same way."
King Pingxi withdrew his gaze and looked up at Emperor Zhaochu who was sitting firmly like a mountain. His voice was indifferent and he said in an indifferent voice, "I still want to find out the rest of the matter, so I won't stay too long. I will leave."
"Go." Emperor Zhaochu's voice was cold, his eyebrows furrowed to a slight degree without knowing it, and his expression was unhappy.
King Pingxi signaled Wu Feng to push him out. When he saw Xie Yao out of the corner of his eye, he spoke again, "Princess Han, please come with me. I have found something and I need your cooperation."
After saying that, Wu Feng pushed him out.
Xie Yao stood still, just looking up at Emperor Zhaochu.
"You should go out too!" Emperor Zhaochu's voice became even colder, causing the temperature of the entire hall to plummet again.
"Yes." Xie Yao bowed and retreated.
When the concubine came here, she felt relieved.
If there were no King Pingxi today, Xie Yao would be in danger.
The queen stared at Xie Yao leaving with cold eyes, her eyes filled with strong unwillingness.
Once again, let Xie Yao escape!
Emperor Zhaochu's eyes were as deep as the sea, and his eyes only fell on Xie Yao for a moment, and then he looked at King Pingxi until King Pingxi completely disappeared.
