Chapter two hundred and two; Liu Liangzuo's cruelty
Under this dim light, a vague figure appeared behind Queen Zhou unnoticed, accompanied by a feminine voice, appearing like a ghost.
Empress Zhou was also surprised that this little eunuch was so mysterious and could come and go so freely in such a forbidden area of the palace. However, it could also be seen that this person had quite a lot of abilities and was definitely not just a mere eunuch.
"Are you the little eunuch that the prince talks about?" Queen Zhou used the afterglow to look at the little eunuch a few meters in front of her, and asked tentatively. The intuition brought by the superior made her feel that this little eunuch must be extraordinary. The same goes for him.
I was puzzled that this little eunuch could be so close to the prince, so I naturally wanted to inquire about it.
"That's right, the Queen." The young eunuch also saluted respectfully.
"The prince said you know the secret passage. Do you really know it or are you lying to the prince?"
The little eunuch smiled imperceptibly, and then said: "Does the Queen distrust this slave? If you don't trust your slave, you can find someone else."
"Why are you helping the prince? You know, the person in charge of Yingtian Mansion now is Ma Shiying, not me and the prince. It is not a wise move to help the prince." Although Queen Zhou does not often participate in political affairs, she is at least somewhat politically sensitive.
Sex. When speaking to this extremely strange person, you must not lose your momentum, so your tone is very serious.
After hesitating for a few seconds, the young eunuch replied calmly: "The Queen is too cautious. I have no other intention in helping Her Royal Highness. I just feel that traitors are in power now and the government is in chaos. Even as an eunuch, I can't eradicate traitors."
If you really want me to give you a reason, I can only say it’s for Ming Dynasty.”
Hearing this, Queen Zhou couldn't help but feel a little fond of the young eunuch, and then her tone softened a lot and she said, "Are you alone or behind the scenes?"
"Of course it's one person." The young eunuch continued to answer: "As the Empress said, people like Ma Shiying and others in Yingtian Mansion are the ones in control of the court now, and few people are willing to risk their lives to help the Crown Prince and the Empress."
"When can I leave?" Since I initially believed him, I couldn't delay it any longer. The prince's health was deteriorating rapidly, and he didn't know how long he could survive. If something unexpected happened, what would be left?
The two children will inevitably be unable to escape the fate of being controlled.
After thinking for a moment, the young eunuch said solemnly: "Your Highnesses must leave within three days."
Hearing such an anxiety, Queen Zhou was also puzzled: "Are you so anxious? Do you know that Ma Shiying is about to hold a grand ceremony, and the two princes will definitely be present. It will be very difficult to escape from here. Are you really sure?
You are just one person, and the guards here are very tight, what if something happens?"
Hearing Queen Zhou's question, the young eunuch smiled indifferently, obviously finding this question a bit ridiculous. But he said politely: "Queen, don't worry, since I dare to take this job, I must be sure of it. Although I said
He has a humble status, but he also knows the importance of this matter."
After hearing what he said, Queen Zhou felt a lot more relieved. This was the first time she had trusted a eunuch so much. Maybe she believed him unconsciously because she was trapped here and had no one to accompany her.
While the two were talking, a rough voice suddenly sounded outside. Queen Zhou hurriedly signaled the young eunuch to leave. After hiding him, she hurried to check. At this time, the man also walked in, and he saw a sword on his waist.
, wearing armor, strode in. When he saw Queen Zhou, he just glanced at her with contempt and walked directly over.
The person who came was none other than Liu Liangzuo. Since his ambition was exposed, his behavior has become more and more rude.
"General Liu is also in a good mood. It's rare to see him today." Empress Zhou was not afraid of what Liu Liangzuo could do to her, so she taunted her. Liu Liangzuo was just a warrior at best. He was ruthless and scheming.
It's quite ridiculous.
Liu Liangzuo, who originally planned to enter the main hall directly, was stopped by Queen Zhou's taunting voice. He turned around and said coldly: "The prince is seriously ill, and the Queen loves him so much. As a minister, it is natural for me to come to visit. But the Queen is
If you really want His Royal Highness to recover, it is better to go to a Taoist temple or temple to seek help, maybe it will be effective."
Hearing this, Queen Zhou just sneered, but did not reply directly to him. Instead, she said solemnly: "There is no need to worry about Mr. Liu. As long as your heart is clear, the prince will be fine."
Liu Liangzuo also didn't want to chat with Queen Zhou. When he was about to enter the main hall, he was stopped by Queen Zhou: "His Royal Highness is resting inside. If General Liu has anything to say, you can tell me, and I can convey it to you on your behalf."
"Excuse me, Queen, for bothering me. I'd better go in personally."
After saying that, he ignored Queen Zhou and strode in immediately. Seeing this scene, the powerless Queen Zhou had no choice but to follow behind to see what he wanted to do. But
Just as he was about to step in, he was stopped.
"As a member of the harem, the Empress does not need to know about important matters in the court." Liu Liangzuo smiled scornfully and closed the palace door directly. Empress Zhou couldn't help but feel angry after being blocked outside, but as a prostitute, there was nothing she could do about it.
.
When Liu Liangzuo saw Zhu Cihong lying on the bed still unconscious, he couldn't help but frowned. It had been many days and they had given him a lot of medicine, but why was he still unconscious now? He suddenly wanted to pull the doctors away
Come here and ask them carefully. The enthronement ceremony is about to begin. How can you ascend the throne if this is the case?
"Someone's coming!"
Following a scolding, a palace maid immediately came to him obediently.
"Has anyone been here these days?" Liu Liangzuo was naturally worried that someone would deliberately make the prince unconscious in order to prevent their enthronement ceremony.
The palace maid replied tremblingly: "Replying to your lord, except for Lord Ma and the Queen in the past few days, and since you are here today, no one else has come in."
Suddenly, a sharp flash of light flashed, and a stream of blood sprayed directly into the air. The palace maid who was still replying just now fell backwards, and her eyes lost color. Liu Liangzuo also slowly showed his saber, and directed at this lady.
The death of a palace maid is like trampling a small ant to death, without mercy.
"I ask again, who has been here?"
The palace maids and eunuchs waiting around turned pale with fright, trembled all over, and knelt down involuntarily. But without exception, none of them knew, and no one dared to speak. The death of the palace maid just now made them so frightened that they could not even speak.
If you are speechless, how can you dare to answer?
After waiting for a long time, but no one answered, Liu Liangzuo couldn't help but feel a little irritated, and he killed several people one after another. Blood spattered everywhere, and screams continued to sound, which frightened Empress Zhou outside the hall and turned pale.
When there was only one little eunuch left, and the long knife was about to fall on him, he immediately shouted: "Sir, I seem to remember!"
In an instant, the long sword stopped. Liu Liangzuo looked at the young eunuch coldly and asked, "Tell me, what do you remember?"
The little eunuch was also frightened, breathing rapidly, as if he had just escaped from the gate of hell, and then said hastily: "In the past few nights, I seem to have seen a man wearing a eunuch uniform enter the hall, and he came out again not long after.
I definitely don’t know this person. They are all sleeping and I am the only one on duty.”
Hearing this, Liu Liangzuo couldn't help but think about it. It seems that this mysterious man in eunuch uniform is very suspicious. Or it can be directly concluded that this mysterious man is the reason why the prince has not woken up yet. Of course, he still has to send an imperial doctor to continue.
Treating the prince will be delayed if you don't plan.
He immediately touched the young eunuch's neck and withdrew his sword.
After leaving the palace, she ignored Empress Zhou and left the place quickly with a straight face. Seeing Liu Liangzuo leaving in a hurry, Empress Zhou hurriedly walked in to check and was instantly shocked. In a moment, the place was filled with people lying there.
Corpse! Blood was still flowing on the ground, and those unwilling eyes seemed to be looking directly at Queen Zhou.
This Liu Liangzuo was so bold that he dared to kill someone in the prince's palace!
She couldn't help but feel a chill. Staying in the same place with someone like Liu Liangzuo made her days feel like years.
At this time, the little eunuch who had been hiding aside stepped out and was shocked by the scene in front of him. He knew that Liu Liangzuo was cruel, but he didn't expect him to be so vicious! Several humble palace maids and eunuchs were not spared.
His viciousness is almost shocking.
"You should leave quickly, I guess he already knows your existence." Queen Zhou turned her head and couldn't bear to watch this scene, and said urgently to the young eunuch. She didn't want to finally have hope, only to be disappointed again.
"It doesn't matter. I'll leave when you can rescue your two highnesses." Although he said this, he was already a little worried. This Liu Liangzuo was really difficult to deal with.
