Chapter 739: One more move

Xiao Lingheng did not struggle at all, and was captured by the guards obediently.

When he entered the main hall and saw that Xiao Ge was still alive, he knew that the situation was over.

The first assassin who rushed in to assassinate Xiao Ge was a chess piece he buried next to the prince, and the guard who assassinated Xiao Ge directly from behind was also one of his. He thought that what happened today was foolproof, but he did not expect that he would still fall short.

If he didn't resist at this time, given his father's soft heart, he could still be alive; if he resisted, he would be dead.

"Father, why?" His face was full of grief. "I want to know why? I just care about my father and want to save him, and I have no intention of offending my father. Why does my father treat my son like this?"

minister?"

Xiao Ge didn't want to say anything more to him. He just waved his hand and said, "Take him away." Then he looked at the leader of the imperial guard and said, "Go there yourself and send your trusted followers to keep him in prison. If he escapes again, I'll take your head with him."

see me."

"Yes." The leader of the imperial guards then led several imperial guards and escorted Xiao Lingheng and his men away.

As soon as they left, Xiao Ge hurriedly ordered a guard: "Go to Prince Qi's mansion quickly and see how Prince Qi is doing."

Xiao Lingheng came forward in person and ran to the main hall to see if he had been killed by the prince. He must have been fully prepared, thinking that the victory was in hand and the throne was his. Then the only remaining King of Qi must be the one he wanted to get rid of.

King Qi is now in great danger.

Watching the guards go out, Eunuch Xie consoled him: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, His Highness Prince Qi should have taken precautions there and there will be no danger."

Xiao Ge shook his head and said nothing.

Xiao Lingheng's methods are always unexpected and hard to guard against. Who would have thought that he would use the prince to assassinate him? If he hadn't been worried about someone taking the throne first, so he became impatient and personally came to see if he, the emperor, was dead, he might have been arrested today.

Can't hold his hand.

Therefore, even if Xiao Wu was prepared, he might not fall into Xiao Lingheng's plan.



In the Suiping Mansion, Zhao Ruxi is listening to the real-time broadcast of the system.

"Host, the emperor has been rescued...the prince committed suicide and died, and the third prince has been captured by the emperor."

"Host, someone put poison on the cup the fifth prince drank from."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ruxi's heart suddenly lifted.

She asked aloud: "How is it? How is he now?"

Qing Feng, who was accompanying him at the side, heard her speak and couldn't help but look at Zhao Ruxi in confusion: "Girl?"

Only then did Zhao Ruxi realize that she had said the words out loud without knowing it. But she couldn't care about it now.

She waved her hands and asked in her mind: "How is it now?"

"Host, don't worry, have you forgotten that you gave the Fifth Prince the Weiwei Wan?"

"The taste-defining pills are useless. Some poisons will kill you if they touch your lips." Zhao Ruxi was so angry that she spit out the fragrance.

At this time, the system would still try to trick her. What if this guy had an entity? She would have to beat him up.

Because the host is tough? The system has always been timid, and it immediately said: "Don't worry. That person was exposed eight hundred years ago? Has he been under the surveillance of the fifth prince? Can the fifth prince still succeed in poisoning someone? He has already

So the poison was changed. Now this poison will make people fall into coma, and they will wake up automatically after three days of coma."

"What? You have to sleep for three days?" Zhao Ruxi felt uneasy after hearing this? "If someone wants to deal with him in these three days, wouldn't he be in danger? No? I have to stay with him."

At this moment, she was extremely glad that she had already engaged Xiao Lingyan and had a clear marriage. If Xiao Lingyan had anything to do, she could justifiably go and help him.

"The fifth prince has just passed out, and even the servants of Prince Qi's Mansion haven't received the news yet. Host, go now, can you explain where your news comes from?"

This sentence successfully stopped Zhao Ruxi who was about to step outside.

She walked back slumped and sat back on the recliner.

Does she know that Xiao Lingyan dares to take such a risky move? He must have already arranged it, and there are people around him who are completely worthy of his trust. If she is concerned, she will be confused.

"System, he will be fine, right?" she asked.

The system was silent for a while, and had to tell her a cruel fact: "I haven't finished what I just said. What kind of medicine did the fifth prince take? Although he will wake up in three days, his body functions will still be restored after he wakes up.

No? It will take at least one or two years of recovery.”

"What?" Zhao Ruxi screamed again.

Seeing Qing Feng looking at her, she quickly said: "You go out first."

Qing Feng walked out with a worried look on his face and closed the door.

"What kind of medicine is that? Is it reliable? Don't let him be fooled." Zhao Ruxi said.

"Is this because you told him the fate of cannon fodder, and he was worried that he would die of poisoning? He once recruited several folk miracle doctors. Was this medicine accidentally developed by a miracle doctor? He once did an experiment on an old beggar? Now that old man

The beggar is recovering well."

"Now what about the miracle doctor and the beggar?" Zhao Ruxi now has no trust in anyone around Xiao Lingyan, and everyone feels like a spy.

"Don't worry, the miracle doctor was placed in a place no one knows by the fifth prince. He is obsessed with studying medicine and doesn't care about anything else. Moreover, that person has already developed the antidote. If necessary, the fifth prince can also take the antidote directly.

The medicine brought him back to life. The beggar now stays with the miracle doctor and is fed well with good food and drink."

Zhao Ruxi sighed.

She also knew that if Xiao Lingyan did not take this risky move, both Xiao Ge and the court officials would definitely cast suspicious eyes on him.

When doing anything, don't look at the reasons and process, only look at the final result and who has the vested interests.

Now the prince and the fourth prince are dead, the third prince is imprisoned, the second prince is disabled, and among all the adult princes, only the fifth prince is still alive and well. Although all the evidence points to the third prince, all this was planned by the third prince, and the fourth prince and

The emperor was assassinated by the prince. But when everyone saw the end, they would always cast suspicious eyes on Xiao Lingyan.

The final vested interest is the fifth prince.

Only if something happens to Xiao Lingyan now, will everyone give up their thoughts, the prince, the third prince's faction and the second prince will not take revenge on him, and the emperor will trust him.

He had to make this move.

But drinking this unknown drug always felt like it was too risky for her.

She opened the system control panel, looked at the pills listed on it, and closed it again in disgust.

Xiao Lingyan once asked her if she had this kind of medicine, but what about her system? Apart from packaging women in all aspects, making them more beautiful, smarter, and more able to please men, it has no use.

Where can I find this medicine?

Fortunately, she discovered another use of the system and developed the business of asking questions. Otherwise, other than buying some Dali Pills, Kangfu Pills, etc., she really didn't know what else it could be used for.
