Xiao Jinliang threw away Xiao Jinshu and said angrily, "you outsider, go back to Liangzhou honestly. What are you doing here? It's really annoying!"
"You Wang, the murderer who killed your father has not been found yet. You and I are suspected of killing people. I'm afraid it's not right to rush in now." Xiao Jinshu said calmly.
In the face of Xiao Jinliang's arrogance and ridicule, Xiao Jinshu was not angry, but stood in front of him.
Liu Lu, the Prime Minister of Zuo, also came to them to be a peacemaker: "two princes, when we just arrived, your majesty really lost consciousness and no one was breathing. Fortunately, the imperial doctor's rescue was timely. Your majesty has a weak breath and is in a coma. I hope you will stay in the capital and accept the investigation of Dali temple. Your soldiers and horses will also stay in the mountains outside the hot spring palace and be controlled by the guards to cooperate with the investigation. "
"What do you say, father regained a trace of consciousness from his dying state?" Xiao Jinliang's face turned blue. He mentioned Liu Lu's collar and asked aloud.
Liu Lu was frightened and nodded immediately: "yes, when we arrived, your majesty did not breathe. Fortunately, he did not breathe for long. It is still hopeful to rescue him. Your highness, can you let go of the collar of the old minister? It's really not smooth to breathe." Liu Lu coughed and said in a trembling voice.
Xiao Jinshu stood on his side and asked with a smile: "why, listen to you Wang's meaning, it seems that he is not satisfied that his father will wake up?"
Xiao Jinliang, like a frightened flea, threw away Liu Lu and scolded fiercely: "what are you talking about? It's a good thing for your father to wake up. I'm just a little too excited!"
"Cough, cough! Two princes, please go back to the palace prepared by the old minister for you two. When your majesty wakes up, we will inform you immediately. " Liu Lu bows back to them.
Xiao Jinshu and Xiao Jinliang look at each other. Under the leadership of the people Liu Lu brought, they go to the palace where they live.
These are two independent courtyards opposite to the courtyard. There are hot springs in the courtyard. The courtyard wall is short. You can see all the pavilions, hot springs and personnel activities in the other courtyard. Anyone who wants to leave the courtyard and go to other places can see them at a glance.
The intention of Liu Lu's arrangement should not be too obvious. It was clearly arranged for the two to contain each other.
When Liu Lu and others hurried back to the palace where Xiao Huan lived at this time, what he saw was the emperor whose neck had been twisted. His eyes were closed, his face was blue, and his body had begun to stiffen after half a day's death.
The time is too short. It's too late to return to Beijing. The two princes have hands in their hands. It's a miracle that they can be trapped for half a day. If they delay further, there will only be riots.
Liu Lu hesitated for a long time in the palace with a headache. Finally, she ordered a dozen doctors kneeling outside the palace to come to the palace.
Looking at the emperor who had long lost his life in front of him, they were so scared that they knelt down on the ground, sweating, and gathered in front of Liu Lu, the Prime Minister of Zuo.
"Prime minister, your majesty has been dead for a long time. Why do you want to hide the news?" Someone couldn't help asking.
Liu Lu stroked the goatee on her chin and said coldly, "there was a traitor in the hot spring palace who killed your Majesty in secret. The trace on your Majesty's neck is evidence. You are all doctors. You can see it. The person who started it is very good. Now your majesty died unexpectedly, but he didn't leave any last words. Suddenly, the two princes knew it. I'm afraid it would be a big mess."
"But it's not a long-term solution! If not, we will become the object of suspicion by outsiders! It's a joke Some people are afraid that they will become a suspect and are very dissatisfied with Liu Lu's concealment of information.
Liu Lu stopped her feet, ignored the group of Taiyi who were talking about and didn't know how to fight in front of her, and said, "you should try to keep your Majesty's body. Don't continue to damage it. This is not a simple assassination. The murderer must have follow-up actions."
"Are we going to wait for death here?" Some of the imperial doctors tried to stand up and run away. They were stopped by the guards and killed on the ground. The blood on the ground made a group of imperial doctors run to his majesty and get busy.
Liu Lu stood at the door of the dormitory, looking at the fading sky outside, carrying her hands. When the night was dark, the commander of the guard came to him quietly and leaned over to whisper a few words.
Liu Lu looked at the palace where the two princes lived. After thinking about it for a long time, she asked again, "is it true or not?"
"It's true that the minister who has been forced to fight in the palace has killed all the favorite concubines of his Majesty's imperial concubines. Even the city guards respectfully invited him in. Prime Minister Zuo, what should we do now? "
"My son has been in Xiliang for many years. Thanks to your Majesty's care, he has been promoted to general. Now the situation has changed greatly. It depends on the competition between Snipes and clams, which side will benefit." With that, he ordered people to set a table for all the doctors present and put it in the main hall of the palace where Xiao Huan lived.
Everyone was afraid of losing their lives. They followed Liu Lu to drink and eat together and waited for the change of the situation.Surprisingly, the two princes didn't want to make trouble at all. Xiao Jinliang took a bath and took a rest. On the contrary, Xiao Jinshu was very upset. He had just arrived in the capital. Except for the news that the spies had brought him that his Majesty was resting in the hot spring palace, he only knew one thing about the situation in the palace. On the other hand, he suspected that Xiao Jinliang had attacked the hot spring palace, But I don't know the news of Xiao Huan's life and death.
Xiao Jinshu, who came here with his hands tied, stayed in the room for two hours after eating his own dry meat and wine. Finally, he couldn't bear it. He came to the hot spring palace in person, knelt outside the hot spring palace, and soon surprised Liu Lu.
"Prime minister Zuo, ever since he was summoned by his father, I have come to Wenquan palace day and night. Now I hear that he has been attacked, and I am worried. I also hope that Zuo Cheng can communicate with him, so that I can see my father."
Liu Lu came forward to hold Xiao Jinshu and helped him up: "Your Highness, your majesty has just fallen asleep. You really can't be disturbed. When your majesty wakes up, I will ask you to come here the first time!"
"It's getting late. You've been running for many days. Please go back and have a rest early." Liu Lu then turned back to Xiao Huan's bedroom.
Xiao Jinliang looked down at the note in his hand, and his face turned. He took a deep look at the towering palace in front of him and turned back to his bedroom.
In half a fragrant time, Xiao Jinshu, the king of Liang, was found to have broken through the encirclement and suppression of the imperial guards in the palace and escaped from the capital all the way.
