154 Chapter 154. Falling ill

Chapter 154 154. Falling ill

Yun Yao frowned and said: "None of these people in the dungeon have been infected with the red baby. I'm afraid the same is true for people outside. Who spread this news randomly?"

The guard said blankly: "Everyone feels so, and His Majesty is also so suspicious, so he ordered these people to be imprisoned in the dungeon."

"This" Yun Yao turned pale instantly and realized something was wrong.

She jumped up, shuttled between the tiles, and quickly returned home.

At this time, there was just a hint of fish belly white appearing in the sky, and the cold wind blew chills down people's backs. Yun Yao found that everything at home was still normal, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhao Xiaoqin was the first one to discover that Yun Yao was back. She was surprised and excited, and hurriedly said: "Are you hungry, A Yao? I'll make you some food and boil a bucket of bath water."

Yun Yao shook his head slightly and asked, "Where is my husband?"

Zhao Xiaoqin said: "He went out before dawn. He said he was going to Qixuanhou Mansion, but he didn't say what he was going to do."

Yun Yao said hurriedly: "I'll go take a look."

She rushed out in three steps and two steps at a time, so fast that Zhao Xiaoqin couldn't react.

The other end of the cloud arrived at Qixuanhou Mansion and was taken to the study by the housekeeper.

What she didn't expect was that Tang Jian was also there. His head was smashed, and blood flowed down the lines on his cheeks, dyeing the small strand of unrestrained beard red.

No need to think about it, it must have been smashed by Emperor Shao.

When Tang Jian saw Yun Yao, his eyes widened angrily and he said, "You escaped from prison!"

Yun Yao said: "Not only did I escape, I also let the others go. If you hadn't been so ruthless, it wouldn't have caused a riot."

Tang Jian was so choked by her words that he couldn't utter a rebuttal. After a while, he frowned and said: "Your Majesty wants my handsome soldiers to catch up with those who left the capital, and kill them directly without bringing them back."

"Then why is General Tang here?" Yun Yao asked sullenly.

Tang Jian gritted his teeth and said: "I would rather resist the order than do such a thing. When I happened to come out, I saw Yu An sneaking into the Qixuanhou Mansion, so I followed him."

Yu An's face darkened instantly. He was so sneaky and underhanded. It was obvious that Tang Jian didn't like him.

The corner of Yun Yao's mouth twitched, and taking this opportunity, she asked: "General Tang, have you found any red babies in the capital these days?"

"No," Tang Jian said angrily, "I searched all over Kyoto and found nothing."

Yun Yao was speechless. She couldn't let go and said: "No, it means no. Just because of this misunderstanding, Kyoto has become a mess. In this situation, it would be easy for anyone to break in."

After Yun Yao said this, she suddenly froze. Yu An and Qi Xuanhou also looked at her, as if they were thinking about the same thing.

Yun Yao almost broke his voice and said: "Hurry! Seal Kyoto quickly. Someone wants to take advantage of the chaos to bring the red baby in. If he succeeds, the fake thing will become real."

Tang Jian realized it later and rushed out quickly, disappearing from everyone's sight.

Yun Yao almost bit her gums, her face was surprisingly solemn, and she hated herself for not discovering it earlier.

This is the purpose of the other party. First, let Ganzhou be in chaos, turn the emperor into a frightened bird, and then let Hong Ying appear in front of him.

The other party seemed to understand Shao Huang's character very well and had a firm grasp of it, taking everything into consideration.

Qi Xuanhou said: "I'm afraid it's not that easy to blockade Kyoto at this time. The people are so excited that they only want to break out. I'm afraid there are loopholes everywhere in Kyoto."

Yu An said: "We must find ways to appease the people's emotions."

Qi Xuanhou said: "I will go to see your majesty right away. Your majesty is not a foolish king. If you know the true situation, you will not sit idly by and ignore it."

They were still discussing here, but Yunyao was lost in thought. She was thinking about how the other party would bring the red baby in.

Drugs are not viruses and do not spread through the air. Drug dealers have their own systems. The most fundamental solution is to follow the clues and find the person behind them.

Only by catching the drug lord can this matter be solved.

She said: "I'll go out and look around to see if I can find any breakthrough."

As she said that, she was about to run out, but was caught by Yu An.

Yun Yao was stunned and saw Yu An saying worriedly: "You look very tired."

Yun Yao moved her mouth and realized that she hadn't eaten or slept all day. She looked down at herself and saw that her skirt was covered in dust.

If you smell it casually, you can still smell the fishy smell of a dungeon.

She must be looking extremely embarrassed now.

Yu An frowned and said, "You stay in Qixuanhou Mansion and have a good rest. Let us take care of matters in Kyoto."

Yun Yao nodded slightly, feeling very hungry. If he continued like this, he might suffer from hypoglycemia.

The maid prepared hot water for her and a lot of food. Yun Yao let out a long sigh while soaking in the bathtub. At the moment when the accumulated fatigue disappeared instantly, she realized that she had been in a bad mood these days.

At the other end, Qi Xuanhou went to the palace hall, and the eunuch immediately went to report to Emperor Shao.

Qi Xuanhou stood in the main hall and waited for a while. He was surprised to see a haggard figure sitting on a dragon chariot and being carried over by a bearer.

Qi Xuanhou hurriedly knelt down and said politely: "See your Majesty, I will tell you what I have to say."

Emperor Shao was extremely exhausted, but his eyes were still clear. He got off the dragon chariot, sat on the dragon chair and said, "My dear, please get up. If you have anything to say, just tell me."

Qi Xuanhou stood up and said bluntly: "I suspect that someone will take advantage of the chaos to transport a large number of red babies to Kyoto."

Emperor Shao glanced at Qi Xuanhou strangely, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Hongying has been flooding in Kyoto for a long time, so why did Aiqing say this?"

Qi Xuanhou did not frown slightly and said: "There is not a single smoker in Kyoto at present. Your Majesty may have been tricked."

Emperor Shao suddenly stood up, his eyes suddenly filled with red bloodshot eyes: "Qi Xuanhou, please don't joke with me at this moment. I am already very anxious. In order to control the situation, I can't sleep at night."

Qi Xuanhou made a heart-wrenching expression. To be honest, if he hadn't met Tang Jian today, even he would have thought how serious the situation in Kyoto was.

He had no time to refine his words and said directly: "Those who contradicted the soldiers in the past were not suffering from symptoms, but because His Majesty's governance was too ruthless. The people in the villages in the city died of illness and starvation.

They had no choice but to resist."

"Your Majesty, General Tang is a rough man, but he is not confused in his work. These days, he has not found any red babies. Doesn't your Majesty doubt it?"

Emperor Shao suddenly stood still. He seemed to understand the method and looked dazed.

Seeing His Majesty's expression, Qi Xuanhou knew that he didn't need to say any more. He lowered his head respectfully and gave Emperor Shao time to react.

Unexpectedly, the next second, Shao Huang suddenly vomited blood and fainted.

The surrounding eunuchs immediately became confused. Finally, a single group of eunuchs on the roof jumped down and carried Shao Huang to the imperial hospital.
