Chapter 587: The Queen Mother: I regret that I should have demoted Gongsun Zhaoyou!
【Buzai Wuming (effective)】
[Tong Guan’s highest attribute is Luck, and he successfully extracted 1 Luck attribute point]
…
"It's not a physical constitution?"
It is basically certain that one shot of Tong Guan will trigger his talent. After all, the most famous eunuch in the Song Dynasty was Tong Guan. Li Xian and Wang Jien may not be inferior to Tong Guan in terms of personal achievements, but they are not as famous.
When mentioning Tong Guan, one naturally thinks of his military exploits. He was quite outstanding in the early campaign to conquer the West, and his body and appearance were majestic and gifted. Li Yan thought that this person's physique must be the most outstanding.
, I didn’t expect it to be luck.
However, since the clumsy plan to murder the Queen Mother just now almost succeeded, and the crimes that were brought into the palace before have disappeared, Tong Guan's luck is indeed very strong.
Fortunately, he was defeated by this shot through the heart.
[Obviously a strong man but still cautious (effective)]
[Should the extraction attributes be converted into reserve attributes?]
【yes】
[The current reserve attribute points are 2 points, which can be converted into 1 free attribute point. 】
This free attribute point is extremely valuable. Two of the six thieves in the Northern Song Dynasty were killed. During the observation period when there was no major war, Li Yan was quite satisfied with this harvest.
After solving Tong Guan, the courtiers who directly colluded with Wuyou Cave were wiped out. Li Yan pulled away the tip of his spear and let Tong Guan's body fall into the depths of the cave. Then he reached out and grabbed Wuwozi's body.
Go up.
Even without the heart-piercing shot just now, Wuwozi would have been dead. The continuous use of ghost magic weapons polluted the magic power. The abuse of ghost armor directly eroded the flesh and blood, making humans less human and ghosts.
Like a ghost.
And the penetration of Han Jie's shot was like opening a hole in a balloon, and the last vitality left the body in an instant.
This beggar from Wuyou Cave died without leaving any last words. His face still had that vicious and ferocious expression, which will remain frozen forever.
Carrying the body of Wuwozi, Li Yan walked out of Wuyou Cave and saw a row of round shields standing at the exit of the ditch, with dozens of Banzhi attendants waiting solemnly.
In the distance, one could still hear Hua Rong trying to come over, but was blocked from the sound. It was obvious that they were frightened and did not dare to let anyone get close to them again.
Feeling the crossbow aiming at him, Li Yan spoke in advance: "I am Lin Chong. My father, Lin Tiha, is also a member of the Forbidden Army. The thief has surrendered!"
Suddenly there was a commotion outside, and there was a faint sense of ecstasy of relief. A strong voice hurriedly responded: "It turns out to be Lin Erlang, please come out! Please come out!"
When Li Yan walked out, he saw a big man wearing armor and strong swords coming forward: "Shihao, I am the commander of Yulongzhi. I have met Lin Erlang. Thank you Erlang for helping me!"
Li Yan: "Commander Zhong is so polite. He drew his sword to help when the road was uneven. What's more, the thieves are so arrogant, and they are even more likely to be the leader of the Wuyou Cave thieves. Everyone can find and kill him!"
Hearing this, Zhong Shihao saw Wuwozi's body, and his eyes showed deep hatred: "Is he the leader of the Wuyou Cave thief?"
Li Yan handed Wuwozi's body over: "There are still many Wuyoudong thieves in Kaifeng Prison, and they are being executed in batches. Their identities can be determined through these people."
The cultivator Haoda was moved: "Lin Erlang, this is a great contribution to the world, you will hand over the body to me?"
Li Yan said: "I have no official position, so I can't say what I have done. However, I alarmed the Queen Mother this time, and there were quite a few twists and turns in the aftermath. My father is the commander of the Imperial Army, so please don't refuse to command me."
Zhong Shihao knew very well that this time the Queen Mother was assassinated and was greatly frightened. They, the Banzhi guards, who protected the royal family, had the greatest responsibility, but if they caught the thief, they would be exempted from a lot of punishment. This kind of kindness is really great, so immediately
He clasped his fists heavily: "Thank you Lin Erlang!"
Li Yan added: "The internal official who was protecting the Queen Mother just now was unfortunately killed during the fight, and his body was left in Wuyou Cave..."
Devour
Zhong Shihao felt a little regretful when he heard this: "Young children know how to be loyal and work so hard without caring about their own lives. I am afraid that they have already put their life and death at risk. Fortunately, the Queen Mother is fine and the thieves are out to kill him, so he can die in peace."
Li Yan thought that after you said this, Tong Guan would definitely not be able to rest in peace, so he glanced at the situation not far away: "What Commander Zhong said makes sense, I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave now!"
Zhong Shihao watched Li Yan leave without any hesitation and said sincerely: "Excellent martial arts, magnificent weapons, he is a true hero!"
He ordered people to keep Wuwozi's body in a safe place. After verifying the identity of such a treacherous thief, he would definitely hang the body for several days as a warning to others.
Next, we need to report the merits of the righteous Lin Chong to the Queen Mother. Others can be indifferent to fame and fortune, but we cannot be greedy for credit.
But before he arrived in front of the Queen Mother, he heard Guo Kai's urgent cry from over there: "Come quickly! Send for the imperial doctor! Send for the imperial doctor!!"
…
Royal Palace.
Zhao Ji, who looked sick, was painting again.
Compared with some time ago, the painting style of the landscapes, flowers and birds he painted are all vivid, elegant, beautiful and pleasant, so that people who do not know how to appreciate paintings can also think that these are excellent works. The works these days seem to have lost their spirituality and appear
Much more mediocre.
Zhao Ji painted for a long time. After looking at it himself, he was not satisfied either. He waved the palace maid to remove it and replaced it with a blank canvas. Just as he was about to relax, forget about his worries and paint a satisfactory work, he heard something coming from outside.
Noisy.
He put down his paintbrush and lay down slowly, with a sick look on his face. Then he saw his close servants rushing in and saying, "Official family! Official family! Something bad has happened! When the Queen Mother went to Daxiangguo Temple to pray, she was assassinated by thieves.
!”
Zhao Ji sat up with a cry, his face changed drastically: "Quick! Quick! I'm going to visit your empress!"
The chamberlain and the palace maids hurriedly came forward to help the official put on his robes. The emperor's chariot came outside the palace, asked him to sit on it, and went to Funing Palace.
Along the way, Zhao Ji had prepared his emotions. His brows were full of sadness and anxiety, and then Tong Guan's words suddenly flashed through his mind, and he blurted out: "The Queen Mother left the palace to pray for blessings, will Tong Douzhi accompany her?"
The confidant's chamberlain immediately replied: "Tong Douzhi is in the prayer team..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "How dare this eunuch act so surly? What if it implicates me?"
Zhao Ji immediately guessed what had happened. Real shock and anger appeared in his eyes, and his heart was full of fearful thoughts. He trembled and said, "How is your Majesty?"
The confidant's chamberlain said: "Report to the officials that the Queen Mother was frightened by the thieves and passed out. All the doctors from the Imperial Hospital have passed away..."
Zhao Ji breathed a sigh of relief, feeling both fortunate and secretly disappointed, and then asked slowly: "Where are the other ministers? Are they injured?"
The voice of the confidant's chamberlain was slightly lowered: "The thieves were so vicious that they injured many Ban Zhi and the monks of Daxiangguo Temple. Among the chamberlains who accompanied him, only Tong Douzhi was the only one who risked his own life to protect the Queen Mother and was killed by the thieves..."
Zhao Ji was stunned: "Tong Douzhi was killed?"
A close confidant said: "According to what Ban Zhi said, when the thieves were committing crimes, it was Tong Douzhi who took the lead in carrying the Queen Mother and leaving. When the Queen Mother was rescued, Tong Douzhi was dragged into the Wuyou Cave by the thieves and was brutally killed."
Zhao Ji murmured: "Tongduzhi... you are so loyal..."
Even the officials were confused by this complicated situation. When Empress Dowager Xiang was lying on the bed in Funing Palace and finally slowly opened her eyes, there was Tong Guan in the first words she muttered: "Have the thieves been captured?
?What happened to Tongdu?"
Suddenly there was a cry from the side, and Guo Kai's hoarse voice was especially obvious: "Queen Mother, you finally woke up! If you are in trouble... how can I live like this!"
Listening to the sincere sorrow in their cries, Queen Mother Xiang showed relief even though her whole body was in pain: "You are all loyal ministers! Loyal ministers!"
The other attendants and maids were just fine. When Guo Kai heard that Tong Guan actually got the name of a loyal minister, he was furious. However, looking at the pale face of Empress Dowager Xiang, his lips trembled several times, and he did not dare to say anything.
This time the truth is revealed.
What Empress Dowager Xiang was more concerned about was actually the whereabouts of the leader of the Wuyou Cave thief. She asked for the second time: "Has that thief... been caught?"
"Empress!!"
At this moment, an extremely shrill cry came, and Zhao Ji almost rolled in and crawled in. When he reached the bedside, he reached out and held the Empress Dowager Xiang's skinny palm: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! How could such a thing happen?
!”
Seeing the pure and filial official so sad, he showed relief to the Queen Mother, but he was still most worried about the whereabouts of the thief: "Has the murderer been caught?"
Zhao Ji looked back with tears on his face. Guo Kai looked at the sad official, his body suddenly trembled, and he lowered his head and said: "The Queen Mother is so blessed, the thief has laid down her head, and the commander has ordered people to go to the Kaifeng government office."
I checked with the Wuyou Cave bandits and found out that the deceased was the leader of the Wuyou Cave bandits."
Queen Mother Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, and muddy old tears suddenly fell from the corners of her eyes, and she murmured: "Brother...little brother...I finally avenged you before I passed away!"
Everyone around suddenly burst into tears, and Zhao Ji took the lead in crying: "My queen, please don't say such things! Don't say such things!"
But in fact, whether it was the look on the Empress Dowager's face or Zhao Ji's inquiry about the imperial doctor's diagnosis before she came in, they could tell that this person was not going to die soon.
The elderly are most afraid of trouble, so once the value is devalued, many people will die on the bumpy road. What's more, this time the Queen Mother was assassinated by a thief. Even if she was not directly injured, the shock and fear also destroyed her health.
Empress Dowager Xiang also realized this, and held Zhao Ji's hand tremblingly: "Brother Eleven, there is no need to hurt, I am dying, this country will eventually be in your hands..."
As she spoke, she thought about how her whole life, with a mediocre status in the palace, finally had the opportunity to take charge of the government, and that it ended like this before even a year had passed. Muddy tears welled up again and fell down her cheeks.
Reluctantly, the name that had been thrown away came back to his mind again: "Judge Gongsun wanted to catch the murderer as soon as possible, but I ordered him to wait a little longer. If he had caught the leader of the thief at that time, why would he be like this...
