Reborn from the bottom of the coffin, the miracle doctor and the ugly concubine fight against the wo

At night, Chu Zhao and Xie Chengfeng entered a small town a hundred miles north of Yunzhou City.

The town is really small. There is only one inn called Yuelai. The lobby downstairs is only big enough for a few tables, and there are only a few guests sitting there.

The two of them asked for two upper rooms, ordered food and sat in the lobby to eat slowly.

Chu Zhao, who had regained his appearance, did not show his true face. After washing off the ashes at the bottom of the pot, he applied a layer of yellow syrup on his face, dressing himself up to be very ordinary and not attracting attention at all.

Xie Chengfeng also changed out of his Taoist robes and wore ordinary clothes. No one could tell that he was a Taoist priest.

Since it was inconvenient to talk about running away in public, the two of them chatted about other things casually, looking relaxed and not at all like people on the run.

Tomorrow, they will continue walking north and wait for Aao at the agreed place outside Yunzhou.

After A'ao arrives, Xie Chengfeng will separate from them and go to the capital alone, while Chu Zhao will go to Liangzhou with A'ao.

A'ao was brought to Yunzhou from Liangzhou by a horse dealer. Chu Zhao wanted to take him back to Liangzhou to see if he could help him regain his memory there.

She didn't know why, but she always felt that A'ao was more than just an ordinary poor boy.

Chu Zhao looked out at the sky and thought to himself that A'ao should have left the city by this time. I hope everything goes well for him and there are no accidents.

Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard two guests drinking at the table next to me let out a long sigh: "If this continues, I'm afraid this country will be named He."

"Who says it's not the case? The He family is the Queen Mother's natal family. The Queen Mother's nephew He Yunjie has been studying with the Emperor in the palace since he was a child. His father is the elder of the pavilion, and he is the elder of the small pavilion. The emperor obeys his words, and all government affairs in the court are under his control. In the hands of their father and son, aren’t they the ones who have the final say whether the country’s surname is Chu or He?”

Surname Chu?

Chu Zhao suddenly heard the same surname as his own. He was stunned for a moment, then remembered that Chu was Dayan's surname, and smiled dumbly.

"Senior brother, I didn't realize before that I actually have the same surname as the Emperor."

"Really?" Xie Chengfeng also laughed, "Then you are really slow."

At this time, I heard one of them say angrily: "Who can blame this? It's all the little emperor's fault that he didn't seek to make progress. He spent all day drinking and drinking without talking. He was also tyrannical and willing to kill people at every turn. He was so stupid, and the king who subjugated the country. What’s the difference between kings?”

"Alas!" Another person sighed again, "I think back in the past, how powerful Xi and the Empress were in fighting the Sifang Pingtian Empire, but their descendants failed to live up to the expectations. These grandsons, one by one, were more ruined than the other, and they were looking to completely destroy this great country. If Her Majesty the Queen is alive in heaven, I am afraid that the coffin boards will not be able to hold it down."

"Hey, hey, I tell you two guests, if you get drunk, go back to your room and rest as soon as possible. Don't dare to talk nonsense here. If the ubiquitous Jin Yuwei listens to it, we will all suffer. Implicated.”

Chu Zhao was listening with interest when the shopkeeper came forward and interrupted the conversation between the two.

The two of them were reminded by the shopkeeper and half-frightened by their drunkenness, they got up and staggered upstairs.

In order to avoid suspicion, several other guests left in the blink of an eye.

Chu Zhao was still unfinished and went back to the room with Xie Chengfeng after dinner.

"Senior brother, does the He family really cover the sky with one hand?" Chu Zhao closed the door and asked Xie Chengfeng.

"That's not the case." Xie Chengfeng said, "The He family is the Empress Dowager's natal family, and naturally has the greatest ambition and power. However, there is also a group of officials in the court headed by Feng Guanlan, the chief internal supervisor. They control the four departments, eight bureaus, and twelve bureaus of the inner court. The prisoner, and the He family are fighting for power in separate courts. The current mess in the court is mostly due to the fight between these two parties."

"I see." Chu Zhao nodded, "Whose side does the Jin Yuwei that the shopkeeper mentioned belong to?"

"The Jinyu Guards are the emperor's personal guards. They have always only listened to the emperor's orders, but now that the emperor is stupid, I don't know who they secretly listen to."

Xie Chengfeng carefully checked the room for her, closed the windows tightly, and then said with a smile: "Go to bed quickly, you are a girl, what are you doing asking about these things? Have a good night's rest and be energetic so you can go on the road tomorrow." .”

"it is good."

Chu Zhao responded and sent him outside the door. He locked the door when he came back, washed and changed clothes and went to bed to rest, leaving all these messy problems behind.

The court, the current situation, the struggle for power, the rise and fall of the world, these are all too far away from her.

Right now, she just hopes to get rid of Murong Xiao's big trouble as soon as possible and live a free life with A'ao.

The night is getting deeper, everything is silent, and a candle has not been extinguished.

The dancing candlelight illuminated the woman's sleeping face, her white and delicate skin exuding a sheen like jade, her long eyelashes cast shadows like butterfly wings under her eyes, and her red lips were as moist and plump as delicate flowers.

Even if Murong Xiao was standing in front of the bed at this moment, he would not believe that this was the ugly woman Chu Zhao he was looking for.

After the fourth watch, the sky will be dark.

Chu Zhao seemed to hear someone talking in his dream.

"Nvjun, Nvjun..."

The voice was as sinister as a ghost, ringing in her ears over and over again like a ghost.
