Chapter 364: Would rather kill by mistake than let go
Ronghua Palace.
Xue Ge took a bowl of Jade Dew tea and walked in, but was stopped by Liang Xiao: "Don't go in, my master is inside."
"This tea only tastes good after the fourth time, but it will get cold after a while. Your Majesty called your name yesterday and specifically wanted to drink it." Xue Ge said, "I will send it in and come out as soon as possible."
"No," Liang Xiao said coldly, "My master just gave the order, no one is allowed in."
Of course Xue Ge didn't dare to break in and asked Liang Xiao in a low voice: "Are there any important matters being discussed inside?"
"Don't worry about it, even I don't know." Liang Xiao glared at her, "Get out of here!"
Xue Ge curled her lips and turned around to go out. Liang Xiao stood bowed outside. In fact, he had always kept his ears open, listening to what was going on inside.
But not even a cough was heard.
In this way, he became more and more certain that Liang Jing and the Queen were talking about something important.
"Liu Yun?! The late emperor said before he died that he would be cut into thousands of pieces. If Qingque is really the same as him, this alone can kill Qingque." The queen's face was tense, but her eyes were bright.
servant.
The demon Dao Liuyun claimed to be an immortal and recruited many disciples.
When the late king went out for hunting, Liu Yun mobilized his followers to surround the late king and others at Xianchun Mountain.
After a fierce battle, the late king was stabbed and the armored guard who was driven away was rescued back to the palace. He died half a month later.
Before his death, he made a decree: Exterminate Liuyun and his followers. If the officials and people hide anyone, they will all kill the nine tribes.
However, even though nearly 100,000 people died before and after, there was still no trace of Liu Yun.
Now thirty years later, Liuyun's sea fishing documents are still issued every year, and the bounty remains high.
But like a stone sinking into the sea, there is no trace.
"I have received two secret reports in total, and the information is consistent. It's just that the whereabouts of those people are mysterious, like snakes in grass, and it is difficult to see clearly from beginning to end." Liang Jing said, "So I don't dare to make a conclusion now."
"The grand ceremony is coming soon. We must seize Qingque's handle as soon as possible, otherwise we will be passive." The queen was worried, "But what is Liuyun doing in Beijing? He is sixty or seventy years old now, right?"
"Perhaps Qingque is his apprentice, and he must have some agenda when he comes to Beijing. Will he still rebel and rebel like before?" Liang Jing said, "I will send people to investigate secretly to make sure there is no mistake."
"The other party must be extremely vigilant. They always send people to inquire repeatedly, for fear that the truth will be exposed." The Queen said, "According to my wishes, I would rather kill ten thousand people by mistake than let one go. Anyway, the whereabouts of this group of people are secretive. Find out
On a dark and windy night, we managed to catch them without anyone noticing."
"Do you mean to strike first and gain the upper hand?" Liang Jing also thought about it, "If this is the case, our identities must not be exposed. In case we make a mistake, we can retreat."
"What you said is right. You should dress up carefully so that no one can see it. In addition, your trip must be kept strictly confidential. Don't use it if you are not very reliable. Be careful if there is a spy who passes the news on, but the success will be ruined.
Already."
"The empress is very worried. The younger one also thinks the same way." Liang Jing said, "The previous few times, I found nothing, and often the people left the building empty. This time, no matter what, we can't make the same mistake again."
"Oh, it's a pity that Xian Zhong and Xian Qing are not in the capital. Otherwise, I could have been your helper." The queen said with some disappointment.
"The two generals have been away from Beijing for more than half a month. They said they were going to Saibei and Bohai to work for the army. I'm afraid they won't be able to return to Beijing until the end of August." Liang Jing knew that.
"It was also the old system to go to labor force before the ceremony. The sixth prince was sent to Longxi, and the fifth prince went to southern Yunnan," the queen said. "The weather was hot and the journey was long, so we had to send young people."
"This Liuyun must be captured alive." Liang Jing said, "If we can detect the path they must take and set up an ambush in advance, we can be successful."
"I'll leave this matter to you. It must be successful." The queen said, "Besides, it's best to take the fifth prince along with you. Wouldn't it kill multiple birds with one stone?"
"This Qingque should be connected with Concubine Xian. Does the empress mean that the fifth prince is in the same group as them?" Liang Jing asked.
"What's wrong with that? Didn't Sun Jian join forces with Liu Bei to attack Cao Cao? Farmers all know how to catch rabbits with straw. Why not do such a convenient thing?" The Queen smiled.
"I understand, little one." Liang Jing nodded, "If we can really capture Liu Yun alive, we can just let him say this.
Anyway, whether it is him or Qingque, they will eventually be handed over to us. When the time comes to survive and die, I think they are willing to suffer less."
"Yes, you don't need me to teach you about things here." The queen smiled, "I know you always do things in a measured way."
"Empress, Concubine Hui, I would like to see you." Liang Xiao said outside.
"That's it for this matter. You go down and concentrate on it." The queen said to Liang Jing, "The palace is still quite balanced now. Concubine Fu and Concubine Xian don't dare to act rashly. After all, they have our people watching them.
"
Liang Jing then came out and said to Liang Xiao: "The Queen has said that please come in. I will do something at the back. You should be careful in front of the Queen."
"Yes, yes, master, walk slowly." Liang Xiao followed Liang Jing, nodded and bowed, "Everything depends on the little one."
Concubine Hui walked in and happened to meet Liang Jing across from her. She couldn't help but asked with a smile: "What is Mr. Liang busy with?"
"Many things used for the second prince's wedding have not yet been taken into account. I will go over and make a reconciliation." Liang Jing replied casually.
"I was about to tell the Queen that some of those things are broken and dirty. Do you need to replace them as soon as possible?" Concubine Hui said.
"My Majesty, I don't need to worry about this matter. I'll ask my men to tell the warehouse directly and replace the ones that need to be replaced with new ones." Liang Jing said, "My Majesty, please go in and drink tea with the Queen and talk."
"Thank you so much, Mr. Liang. I'll be relieved if you guys do it." Concubine Hui is actually not good at taking care of things, but because the Queen gave her orders, she has to be careful.
After Concubine Hui entered, Liang Jing called over a young eunuch in charge and asked him to do this.
Originally, Liang Jing asked Shi Dianjin to take care of this, but later in order to dispel the queen's doubts, he had no choice but to let him go back to the background.
"Sister Hui Fei is here, please sit down quickly. I heard that you had a slight cough a few days ago, but are you feeling better now?" the queen asked with a smile.
"It's been fine for a long time. Thank you, the Queen, for thinking about it." Concubine Hui said hurriedly, "I just looked at the goldfish raised on the porch outside. They are really cute. The feng shui here is good, and the things raised are also spiritual."
"If you like it, I'll give you a vat." The queen said, "I'll ask someone to carry it to you later."
"Oh, my concubine was just saying it casually. I didn't mean to ask for the Queen's reward." Concubine Hui felt a little embarrassed.
"What's the matter? It's just a plaything." The queen smiled.
Then he asked: "Where is the tea I said I wanted to drink yesterday? Bring it over and let Sister Huifei have a taste."
