"I just heard the news that the Forbidden Army arrested Furong from the East Palace, and they still have Murong's badge in their hands, but they don't know whether the news is true or not."
The police officer just heard the news and came to report to Li Guangliang.
During the day, the policeman saw Murong Hua riding out, but he didn't know what Murong Hua was going out for.
"Who spread the news?"
Li Guangliang secretly thought that it was too bad. Murong Hua's mission was to go out and catch Furong. Since Furong was in the Forbidden Army's office and Murong Hua's cards were in the hands of the Forbidden Army, Murong Hua was probably doomed.
A waist badge is the identity document of a public servant. Generally speaking, it cannot be taken away unless killed.
However, the Imperial Army dared to kill Murong Hua!
Li Guangliang was shocked and angry.
There is a secret rivalry between Concubine Li and the second prince, and the recent relationship between the Jingzhao Mansion and the Forbidden Army is also very delicate, but on the surface it is still peaceful.
This time, the Forbidden Army actually killed him, which was a sign of betrayal.
"Go and find out more clearly what's going on!"
The police immediately went out to investigate.
After the policeman left, Li Guangliang called another person in and asked him to take people to the direction of Wucheng overnight to look for Murong Hua. He wanted to see the person alive and the body after death.
After they left, Li Guangliang sent another woman to deliver a message to the imperial concubine's palace.
Forbidden Army Yamen.
Deputy Commander Yan Xifeng walked outside the torture room and was greeted by the imperial guards guarding the door with smiles.
"Vice Commander Yan, are you still up so late?"
This forbidden army is Zhou Jin, Zhou Hao's younger brother.
"I heard that an important person has been arrested and returned. I'm here to check on the situation."
Yan Xifeng wanted to go in to see the situation, but Zhou Jin was guarding outside, obviously not wanting anyone else to go in.
Zhou Jin smiled and said: "Never mind him, there are two princes and the commander inside, let's not worry about it."
Yan Xifeng knew he couldn't get in, so he let it go and asked, "I heard it's Fu Rong from the imperial concubine's palace. Why are you arresting her?"
Zhou Jin smiled and did not answer, but said: "How about we brothers go have a drink?"
Seeing that Zhou Jin didn't answer, Yan Xifeng laughed and said, "Forget it, I'll go back to sleep."
Zhou Jin joked: "Really go back to sleep? Don't you go to Jinyu Tower to find a match?"
Yan Xifeng laughed and scolded: "You kid, let's go!"
Yan Xifeng waved his hand and left, cursing in his heart: Who dares to call me a brother?
Don't let me get involved in confidential matters, treat me as an outsider!
Yan Xifeng had talked with five field guards. He knew some things, but not in detail, so he wanted to come here to inquire.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Jin refused to let in, which made Yan Xifeng very angry.
The news here was released by Yan Xifeng.
The news that the Jingzhao Mansion police officers got just now was released by Yan Xifeng.
The queen asked him to seize the command of the imperial army. This matter was not so easy.
As long as Shi Yuncheng and Zhou Hao are still there, Yan Xifeng can't do it.
These days, Yan Xifeng has been contacting people with good connections in the Forbidden Army. These people are very hesitant and find this matter difficult.
Yan Xifeng thought about it and felt that if he wanted to control the Forbidden Army, he must let the conflict between the Forbidden Army and the Jingzhao Mansion come to an end so that he could have a chance.
After leaving the Forbidden Army Yamen, Yan Xifeng went to find someone to discuss.
Watching Yan Xifeng leave, Zhou Jin snorted coldly: "A poor family is a poor family, and they can't get on the stage!"
Zhou Jin knew that Yan Xifeng was powerful, but what was the use of being powerful? When did being an official in the court only depend on ability?
Standing at the door, Zhou Jin peeked inside and saw that Zhou Hao was pouring the ecstasy soup into Furong.
Ecstasy is a drug used by the Imperial Army for interrogation. It can induce hallucinations and make people tell the truth.
Shi Yuncheng sat in front, and Zhou Hao interrogated him personally.
"What did the Crown Princess ask you to say?"
Zhou Hao put down something like a teapot.
I just used this thing, inserted the spout into Furong's mouth, and poured the medicine in.
There were several cuts on Furong's body, and blood was still dripping down.
Fu Rong took advantage of the secret message given by the Crown Princess and threw it into the woods, so Zhou Hao asked what message the Crown Princess wanted to convey.
"Second Prince, I am the son of His Highness the Crown Prince. Aren't you afraid that the Crown Prince will come back to settle the score with you?"
Furong knew that she might be doomed, so she spoke rudely.
Shi Yuncheng ignored it and looked at Furong coldly without saying anything.
Zhou Hao grabbed Furong's hair and asked coldly: "What message does the Crown Princess want to convey?"
Furong sneered and said, "You should have guessed it."
Snap!
Zhou Hao slapped Furong on the face, and blood flowed out from the corner of her mouth.
vomit
Furong's body twitched, she spit out a few mouthfuls of black blood, her eyes turned white, and she died soon after.
Shi Yuncheng stood up and asked, "What's going on?"
Zhou Hao didn't understand what was going on, and said strangely: "The ecstasy soup shouldn't be like this. Is there something wrong with the ecstasy soup?"
Zhou Hao quickly rejected this idea. If there was a problem with the Ecstasy, it would be because there was an insider in the imperial army who helped the imperial concubine kill people and silence her. This is impossible.
Shi Yuncheng raised Furong's hair and made sure that Furong was dead. He said coldly: "Forget it, after all, I just want the crown prince to come back with troops."
"Dispose of the body without leaving any traces."
"How's it going with the Queen?"
Zhou Hao said: "The informant inside sent a letter saying that the queen has not left the bedroom, and only Yuyao and Liu Feng can enter."
Shi Yuncheng pondered: "Find out how many days the queen can live!"
Zhou Hao nodded and said: "Okay!"
Shi Yuncheng had no intention of attacking the queen directly. It would be too stupid to do so.
No matter what, the queen is the real master of the harem.
If Shi Yuncheng kills the queen, Shi Le will be furious. This is treason.
Therefore, Shi Yuncheng's plan was to wait for the queen to die, then accuse Concubine Li of treason, and then kill the entire family of Concubine Li in the name of putting down the rebellion.
Of course, the entire royal city will be in chaos by then, and Shi Yuncheng plans to take the opportunity to kill the Lu family.
In this way, Concubine Shu is the best candidate for the queen.
As for the position of the crown prince, Shi Yuncheng felt that there was no need to be too anxious.
Shi Haoran was resisting the Eastern Zhou Dynasty in Wu City, and he might be killed by Long Chen at some point.
When the time comes, the position of Crown Prince will be yours.
dong dong dong
There was a rapid knock on the door, and Zhou Jin pushed the door open and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, Commander, Li Guangliang sent bats to assassinate the queen just now!"
hiss
Shi Yuncheng and Zhou Hao were surprised at the same time.
The noise caused by the bats was too great, and the news could not be concealed. It had already arrived at the Forbidden Army Yamen.
Zhou Jin immediately told Shi Yuncheng and Zhou Hao.
Shi Yuncheng laughed and said: "This Concubine Li is so ruthless that she dares to directly send someone to assassinate her?"
Zhou Hao clicked his tongue and exclaimed: "What a courageous person. I admire Li Guangliang's courage."
"Your Highness, this is rebellion. Should we attack Concubine Li now?"
Shi Yuncheng shook his head and said: "No, the queen herself didn't say anything, so why should we be in a hurry?"
"Concubine Li's assassination failed, the queen and Concubine Li are at odds, and things are about to begin."
"Be prepared. Concubine Li is too impatient. She may start an army before the queen dies."
Zhou Hao nodded, but was a little confused: "Concubine Li's move is really unwise. Assassinating the queen is treason."
Zhou Hao felt that Shi Yuncheng was smarter and that Concubine Li was a fool for assassinating the queen.
Shi Yuncheng shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "There may be some things we don't know, and the Queen may have something against Concubine Li."
"Concubine Li was worried that the queen would use her leverage to blackmail her, so she had no choice but to take this step."
