Rebirth of marriage

Wang Weiran was a tough talker, and the commander of the imperial army was worried that the emperor would still use him, so he did not dare to kill him. The emperor couldn't wait for his confession, so he pressed Cao Zhicheng, but Cao Zhicheng insisted that the thank you wine was just a fake.

The angry Duke Zhen couldn't bear it anymore and directly picked up the tea on the table and threw it on his face, "Cao Zhicheng, be a human being. Even a human being can see that Princess Xiao was killed. How could you say this?" exit."

"She was just pretending." Cao Zhicheng didn't expect that he would do such a feminine thing as splashing water. Fortunately, the makeup on his face was done for him by a secret guard who was good at disguise, and it wouldn't be exposed by a little water.

He turned his face away from the Duke of Zhen, worried about what he would do next. When Wang Weiran confessed, he could use the opportunity to ask the imperial doctor to confirm that Xie Jiu was not poisoned. Such inconsistencies would allow Xie Jiu to avoid being self-defeating in his disguise. break.

He only had to hold on until that time, and the emperor would trust him again and refuse to drink wine with suspicion.

As for controlling Xie Jiu, he sighed quietly in his heart. If he couldn't do it today, he could always do it tomorrow.

But he didn't expect that Duke Zhen seemed to be extremely angry. He didn't care about the knife in the hand of the imperial guard beside him. He slapped him in the face twice and cursed, "Old thief Cao, don't think that I dare not Hit you... Hey, what the hell is this thing on your face stuck to my hand?"

Duke Zhen Guo looked at the thick piece of skin-like but not skin-like thing in the palm of his hand, rubbed his hands, threw them on the ground, and stomped on them with his feet unluckily, "I will say that you are full of ghosts, otherwise What kind of makeup does a grown man wear?”

Cao Zhicheng's pupils shrank, and he applied the substance used to disguise himself on both cheeks, pretending to have a good complexion and plump cheeks, just to convince the emperor that the prescription he used was good.

He didn't care that there was a knife around his neck and hurriedly covered his face with his sleeves.

The emperor, who had half-closed his eyes to rest due to fatigue, suddenly opened his eyes after hearing these words and motioned to the imperial army, "Take his hand away."

The Imperial Guards stepped forward, and without the cover of his sleeves, Cao Zhicheng's face with stained makeup appeared in front of the emperor.

His healthy face before was fake. It was actually fake. The emperor fell back angrily and shouted, "Cao Zhicheng, you are so brave. How dare you deceive me?"

Cao Zhicheng did not use that prescription, or that prescription was useless or even harmful to the body. Otherwise, how could Cao Zhicheng not use it himself but try to let others guide him to use it.

Thinking of this, he ordered irritably, "Interrogate Wang Weiran strictly, regardless of life or death."

Since the prescription was useless and was just a conspiracy against him, there was no need to spare Wang Weiran's life. He wanted to know from his mouth what Cao Zhicheng wanted to do and what he had done.

Full of expectations turned out to be a lie.

There was a surge of overwhelming anger and uncontrollable boredom in the emperor's heart. He wanted to kill someone, and he wanted to personally cut Cao Zhicheng, who was telling lies, with his own sword.

He stood up from the chair quickly, staggered to Cao Zhicheng's side, and took the knife across Cao Zhicheng's neck, "No one can fool me around, not even you Cao Zhicheng, I will kill you with my own hands."

He aimed the knife at Cao Zhicheng's abdomen, and when he was about to push it in, Cao Zhicheng suddenly took the blade with his bare hands, turned the tip of the knife, and stabbed it into the emperor's abdomen. Everything happened too fast.

Even the Imperial Guards did not react, but Duke Zhen kicked Cao Zhicheng away, caught the emperor, and said loudly, "Protect him, protect him."

Some of the Imperial Guards who were slow to react protected the emperor, some called for the imperial doctor, and some stabbed a knife into Cao Zhicheng's heart.

When the sharp blade pierced the flesh, Cao Zhicheng's eyes widened and his mind suddenly cleared. His behavior just now was completely out of his control.

It was not his will to assassinate the emperor. He was not stupid enough to commit regicide in public. He was manipulated. He struggled to maintain the last bit of strength to see Xie Jiu.

Seeing the corners of her lips slowly rise.

Cao Zhicheng fell down with a look in his eyes. He failed to control Xie Jiu, but was controlled by Xie Jiu instead.

Really unwilling.

When the ancestors rushed over with a certain kind of officials, what they saw was a scene of chaos and chaos.

The emperor's abdomen was bleeding. He not only fainted, but was still in pain and refused to open his eyes. He leaned in the arms of Duke Zhen.

Judge Wang Yuan was treating his injuries with trembling hands. Xie Jiu stood aside blankly. On the ground was Cao Shoufu with his eyes open and lifeless.

The commander of the imperial army also rushed over. With the emperor's words regardless of life and death, he ordered Wang Weiran to be executed. No one could continue to be stubborn under the execution. Seeing that Wang Weiran was about to attack, he was shocked when he heard that the emperor was injured. He ran over immediately.

He asked the Imperial Guard guarding the Emperor in the room, "What's going on?"

"Your Majesty wanted to kill the First Assistant, but the First Assistant in turn assassinated Your Majesty." The imperial guard who had the sword taken away said tremblingly, "My subordinates were not prepared. Cao First Assistant ignored his own hand and directly grabbed the blade and snatched the knife from His Majesty's hand..."

After listening to the description of the forbidden army, Prince Gong said angrily, "Cao Zhicheng really has treacherous intentions. He must have known about the failure of the family's hidden dragon robes and the Gu Master in Southern Xinjiang, so he wanted to take action against Your Majesty. The Cao family wants to rebel!"

The emperor, whose eyes were originally closed, heard this and opened his eyes with difficulty, "Dragon robe?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Prince Gong stepped forward, "Gong An Le found a clue and the Cao family's people tied up his doll, so they came to look for him.

Unexpectedly, in the secret room of Cao Zhicheng's study, he found the dragon robe Mianguan and Nanjiang Gu Master. The dragon robe was customized according to Cao Zhicheng's size.

The ministers knew about this and requested to meet with His Majesty, but the deputy commander of the imperial army perfunctory us and said that he would come to ask for your instructions, but could not wait for his reply. The ministers were worried that Cao Zhicheng would be unfavorable to you, so they had no choice but to barge in.

Your Majesty, I forgive you. I was a little late and asked Cao Laogou to hurt you. I deserve death, but I wanted to whip Cao Zhicheng to death before being punished. How dare he have such a wolfish ambition. "

It turns out that the Cao family actually wanted to rebel.

No wonder, no wonder he used the child as an excuse to prevent the ministers from entering the palace, no wonder Wang Weiran would offer that recipe, it was all Cao Zhicheng's plan.

No wonder Xie Jiu's party was so strange. It must have been under his control. He controlled Xie Jiu and wanted to keep Xie Jiu in the palace. Was it to facilitate Xie Jiu's assassination of him as the emperor?

What a good Cao Zhicheng, what a good Cao family. The emperor squeezed out a sentence through his teeth, "The Cao family conspired to rebel and killed the nine clans."

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt severe pain in his abdomen and completely passed out.

Duke Zhenguo and Wang Zhi looked at each other, and moved his hand calmly away from the emperor's waist.

After Wang Zhi bandaged the emperor's wounds, the emperor was sent back to his palace. Because it was discovered that the deputy commander of the imperial army was Cao Zhicheng's man, the ministers were worried that someone in the imperial army was a traitor.

Then he asked Prince Gong and the old princess to guard him personally, while Wu Chong and the Ministry of Punishment went out of the palace to deal with the Cao family affairs.

Xie Jiu gradually regained her consciousness after Cao Zhicheng's death. It was probably because the mother voodoo host that controlled her died, and the child voodoo in her body also died, so she regained consciousness. No one went into detail about this.

The emperor is now in a coma. The court judge said that the emperor was already terminally ill and could only survive for half a year. Now that he had been stabbed again, it was unclear whether he would recover. Who would offend Xie Jiu, the future queen?

However, a few veterans are worried. His Majesty is in a bad situation right now. Should he ask Prince Xiao to return to the capital?

And the King Xiao in their mouth was wearing the clothes of a guard, slowly tore off the human skin mask on his face, and stuffed a pill into the emperor's mouth.

The emperor faintly woke up and was as shocked to see Gu Xiao as he was to hear about Cao Zhicheng's rebellion. Just as he was about to speak out, Gu Xiao tapped his mute point. Gu Xiao said lightly, "You want to ask me about this matter again?" What role did it play, right?"
