Chapter 167 What happened in the capital
The other men at the table were dumbfounded when they saw their friend being held hostage by a girl with a knife.Finally, one person came to his senses and pulled out a knife from his waist. The others also raised their weapons and looked at Xiaoman fiercely.

"Where did the little girl come from, dare to act wild in front of grandpa!" the man who raised the knife first shouted.

Xiao Man acted as if he didn't hear it at all, the cold blade had already cut a bloody gash on the man's neck: "Say! What's wrong with Lei Yuxiu?!"

Seeing this, those men raised their knives and were about to attack Xiaoman.

And Tu Danlin appeared at the door, waved the spell in his hand, and those people fell to the ground and howled, and their eyes and ears all started to gush blood, and they lost their vision and hearing.

Seeing this, the person under Xiaoman's knife immediately begged for mercy: "Gu... little aunt, please forgive me..."

"Stop talking nonsense! Tell me, what's wrong with Lei Yuxiu?" Xiao Man was about to run away in a hurry.

"Lei... General Lei was assassinated by that... that servant girl of the Rong clan. It is said that he is already dead..."

Xiaoman's spirit was on the verge of collapse, and he didn't want to believe the man's words at all: "Who are you! How do you know?!"

"I... I'm from Dapei... a businessman, and I heard it from others." The man said in horror.

Xiao Man looked at his flickering eyes, and furiously scratched the man's neck longer, "If you dare to tell a lie again, I will cut off your hand! Who are you?!"

Seeing that Xiaoman seemed to have gone berserk, the man didn't dare to pretend anymore, so he immediately changed his words: "Young one... The little one is originally an imperial army, and has surrendered to the Dapei army led by General Lei, but the little one is afraid of the strict discipline of the Dapei army. Don’t be a lazy soldier like a villain, so he took advantage of General Lei’s assassination and the chaos in the army, and escaped with a few friends..."

"Why should I trust you!"

"By...by..." The man watched Xiaoman desperately thinking of something to prove his identity, and suddenly he remembered something, and said loudly, "I remember, I know you! Your father is Chang Zongbing! "

When Xiaoman heard this, he loosened the knife a little.

The man felt the knife loosen in Xiaoman's hand, and knowing that he got the answer right, he breathed a sigh of relief: "The little one used to be a subordinate of Chang Zongbing. But when Chang Zongbing was convicted, the little one joined other troops. Later General Lei’s family was convicted, and the younger one was afraid that his future would be ruined if he stayed in the Dapei Army, so he bribed one of the instructors of the Forbidden Army and transferred him to the Forbidden Army.”

Hearing what he said, Xiaoman's teeth itch with hatred, but she still held back her temper and continued to listen to him.

"When I was with Chang Zongbing, I met you several times in Lei's Mansion."

Seeing that the man didn't seem to be lying, Xiao Man took the knife from his neck.

"Tell me from the beginning, what happened to Dapei in the past half a month?!" Xiao Man stabilized his mind.She absolutely did not believe that Lei Yuxiu had died, and hinted that she should calm down and listen carefully to what he had to say.

The man didn't dare to lie, and began to describe in detail the battles that had occurred in the past half month.

Dapei, Beijing.

Emperor Xian's illness was almost to the point of dying.

Meanwhile, the sixth prince Gu Wenyuan's crown prince canonization hall is being urgently prepared.

Seeing her son, who had been stupid for many years, suddenly appear in front of the world normally, even knowing that he was manipulated by others and was just a puppet, Empress Yu still felt quite comforted.

Because of Gu Wenyuan's stupidity for so many years, she knows how many people are pointing behind her back.If it weren't for the powerful mother clan who has always supported her, it is estimated that it would not be her turn to take the position of queen, let alone sit for nearly 30 years.

Tomorrow's canonization ceremony will be completed, and it will be the moment when she can finally stand up after 30 years of depressing life.

She asked the court lady to try on the dress for tomorrow's canonization ceremony for her, with a high bun on her head and a phoenix crown, pearls the size of longan eyes on her ears, and pearls and jade on her neck and fingers.

When the queen saw herself in the mirror, she couldn't help showing a proud expression: "Such noble makeup is really more beautiful than when the Ai family canonized the queen. Tomorrow, I will show all of them, who is the real one in the Dapei Palace?" mistress!"

As she said that, her mouth suddenly curled up: "It's a pity that one person can't be there tomorrow, and it would be a pity not to let her see the glory of the Ai family."

Since the queen came to the prison, she asked all the accompanying maids and prison guards to avoid, and came to the concubine by herself.

The concubine was dressed in a prison uniform, and when she saw the empress coming outside the prison dressed luxuriously, she stood up and bowed dutifully, but she laughed at her vulgar attire in her eyes: "Why does the empress come to visit my concubine here when you have time?" ?”

"Tomorrow is the sixth prince's canonization ceremony. Aijia is afraid because you are in this big prison and no one thinks of you to tell you, so I will inform you in person." The queen's sneering tone is particularly special in the gloomy prison. ferocious.

The concubine was not angry, and said calmly: "Then congratulations to the empress."

Seeing the concubine's calm expression, the empress felt angry and said coldly: "Do you know why the Ai family kept your life?"

"It's hard to guess. You are afraid that the concubine's son will prevent His Highness the Sixth Highness from becoming the crown prince. You are just threatening him with the concubine's life. There is no reason to show off such tricks." The concubine looked at the queen neither humble nor overbearing.

"You are smart," the queen snorted softly, "If Concubine Ju hadn't gone to Nanyi with that girl in Yunxi, you two should be here as companions now, what a pity. It seems that your son is far inferior to Concubine Ju That bitch's son is filial. If Ai's family was you, you would have been smashed to death in this prison long ago."

"Mother, do you know that since the concubine knows that you are threatening Yun Shen with your concubine, why don't you commit suicide so that he will have nothing to worry about?" The concubine Mu raised her eyebrows and smiled.

When the queen heard it, she didn't care and said, "Aren't you just afraid of death?"

The concubine shook her head and said: "No, the concubine is waiting, waiting for the day when you are in this prison and the concubine is outside the door. Therefore, the concubine cannot die."

"Hahahaha," the queen laughed loudly, "This is the most ridiculous joke the Ai family has ever heard in this life. Do you think you can get out of here? When the son of the Ai family ascends the throne, the first thing to do is to get off the throne." To kill your son, let you have a good taste of the feeling of a white-haired man giving a black-haired man."

"Your Majesty, we don't know who the two of us end up with, the white-haired one and the black-haired one." The concubine remained indifferent to the queen's threat.

"Concubine Concubine! At this time, you can still show off your quick tongue. At that time, the Ai family will definitely let you watch Gu Yunshen die with your own eyes!"

"Okay, empress, let's make a bet. If there is such a day, the concubine will definitely kneel in front of the empress and beg for mercy."

"Okay, it's settled." The empress no longer had the pride she had when she came here, but was half-deadly pissed at the concubine's appearance of not bowing her head until she died. She shouted outside the door, "Come here."

Several jailers came hastily at the summons, and knelt down before the queen.

"You take good care of the concubine for the Ai family, and you must not let her die in this prison, do you understand?!" After finishing speaking, the queen flung her sleeves and left the prison.

The two jailers looked at each other, and quickly followed the order to bring quilts and food to the concubine.

Seeing this, the concubine's smile became even stronger.
