Lu Qian said to the jailer on the side, "Seal down the entire prison and ask all the jailers on duty today to come over! Get Dian Guangming here too!"
After hearing what Lu Qian said, the jailer quickly did it.
There were thirty-six jailers in total, many of them were present.
Lu Qian first asked them one by one and came to a rough conclusion.
That means Chengde should die within an hour.
Because Cheng De is a serious prisoner, he will go to see it regularly.
In the class before Lu Qian came, someone saw that Chengde was still sleeping well.
This is similar to the time of death that Lu Qian judged by observing the corpse.
Dian Guangming came quickly.
After coming over for a brief understanding, Dian Guangming asked Lu Qian to find Zhang Bao without saying anything.
Transfer people from the Forbidden Army.
If Zhang Bao is asked to find someone he can trust, he must keep it a secret before taking over the Shadow Army.
Otherwise, turmoil will definitely occur.
Lu Qian nodded, and Dian Guangming said to Lu Qian, "Prime Minister Lu, has the letter you asked for the surrender of the Shadow Army been sent?"
Lu Qian nodded and said, "Logically speaking, it should have been delivered...but, just before, I received a letter..."
Lu Qian told Dian Guangming about Nie Bing's capture.
Dian Guangming looked unhappy and asked Lu Qian, "Prime Minister Lu, have you spread this news..."
Lu Qian looked a little embarrassed. Just to protect himself, he told Dian Guangming the news.
Dian Guangming nodded and said, "Your Majesty and the Imperial Preceptor will naturally have no problem. Prime Minister Lu, leave it to me. They must have appeared inside!"
Lu Qian nodded, feeling vaguely uneasy in his heart.
After returning, Chuntao was still awake.
After listening to what Lu Qian said, Chuntao said to Lu Qian, "Sir, don't worry. I'll go find someone to investigate..."
Chuntao said and left.
The next day.
Lu Qian was still asleep when Chuntao came over.
However, Chuntao's face didn't look good, and she said to Lu Qian, "Sir, I'm afraid something big will happen!"
Seeing Chuntao say this, Lu Qian said, "What's wrong?"
"The news that Duke Cheng Guo is dead has spread all over the sky! Where the shadow army was originally stationed, they suddenly withdrew. And a small team of ten people was directly broken into pieces and could not be found at all. It is said that Cheng Guogong was Si Tong sneaked into Daxia from Beiliang and took control of the Shadow Army! Moreover, several teams have already sneaked into Kyoto! Moreover, there are many killing orders scattered in Kyoto, and they threatened to avenge Chengde." Chuntao looked confused. He said unattractively.
After hearing Chuntao's words, Lu Qian's face turned extremely ugly...
Before Lu Qian could say anything, Tongyao came over in a hurry.
It was said that the emperor summoned him and asked him to quickly enter the palace to meet the saint.
Obviously, the emperor also knew...
Lu Qian rubbed his head and said to Tong Yao, "Hurry and prepare the carriage!"
Chuntao quickly said, "Sir, I will go with you. Bring more manpower..."
"You should know how powerful the Shadow Army is. If they want my life...how many people can they bring with them!" Lu Qian said with a bitter face.
This trouble comes one after another...
Chuntao nodded and said, "Then I have to follow you..."
Lu Qian nodded and asked Qiangwei to follow.
He said this, but he still knew it very well in his heart.
If so, he will be arrested by them.
I'm afraid it will be taken advantage of by Cheng Sitong.
I found Tong Yao and asked him to find He Xun.
Let He Xun go to Qingfeng City and find a trained team.
He had previously talked about the concept of special warfare with Jiang Guangsheng in Qingfeng City.
Jiang Guangsheng had also seen it when he was in the Western Regions.
match
With the most advanced weapons prepared, Lu Qian thought that even if he encountered a shadow, he would probably be able to fight.
He sat in the carriage and went directly to the palace.
Arriving at the outskirts of the palace, I found that the imperial army had surrounded the entire palace like an iron barrel...
Even the court meeting was temporarily canceled.
There was no danger along the way.
Under the leadership of Zhang Bao, they went directly to the Yangxin Hall.
Zhang Bao told Lu Qian that Concubine Li had woken up.
However, the emperor was frightened out of his wits by the pursuit order issued by the shadow army outside.
At this time, inside and outside the palace, I am afraid that any fly that flies out will be discovered.
Arrive at the entrance of Yangxin Hall.
Dongfang Shen, Dian Guangming, and several princes are all waiting.
When they saw Lu Qian coming, they all bowed.
After a while, Xia Jiuyuan walked out with the support of Gao Weixin.
After Xia Jiuyuan came out, he said with an ugly face, "Prime Minister Lu, this is a good thing you did! Didn't you surrender as promised? Why did he suddenly die? Tell me...what did you do? Or Say, you are deliberately deceiving me! If you can't do it, tell me. You forced Duke Cheng to death, and now you have forced the Shadow Army to rebel! They are wandering outside Kyoto, ready to come at any time Kill me!"
Seeing this, Lu Qian quickly knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, I am wronged. I have never forced Duke Cheng Guo. Otherwise, according to Duke Cheng's personality, how could he give in easily? There is obviously another hidden reason in this matter!" There is no way Duke Cheng Guo committed suicide!"
After Xia Jiuyuan heard what Lu Qian said, he said with an ugly face, "What's the matter? Don't you want to tell the truth?"
Before Lu Qian could answer, Xia Jiuyuan said to Dian Guangming, "Dian Guangming, please tell me. Did Chengde commit suicide..."
Dian Guangming glanced at Lu Qian with an apologetic expression.
He said to Xia Jiuyuan, "Reporting to your majesty, Duke Cheng Guo did commit suicide. However, there are quite some doubts about this case. I knew it when Prime Minister Lu went to persuade Duke Cheng to surrender. He did not use torture... When I interrogated my men , it is true that there was a period of time when a jailer had diarrhea, but during that period there was still a person pretending to be the jailer and had contact with Duke Cheng... Obviously, it happened during that time."
At this moment, Dongfang Shen also said, "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Lu is also a victim in this matter, and he is also on the list of the fatwa! Moreover, someone is obviously deliberately instigating this matter! So, we should be thinking about how to solve this matter now." thing!"
Xia Jiuyuan said with an ugly face, "Huh... no matter what. This matter is already like this. If tens of thousands of shadow legions want my life, can I still sleep? Prime Minister Lu, you are the one who caused this. Tell me what you think! If you don’t handle it properly, I can only use your head to appease the anger of their shadow army!"
Lu Qian listened to Xia Jiuyuan's words and couldn't help but cursed secretly, Dog Emperor, you are a real dog, you don't want to be a human at all!
The best emperor master
