Chapter 175 Why?(1/2)
The same moment.
Inside a small house in the outer city of the capital.
The lights are dim, but you can see clearly
A thin man wearing ordinary people's clothes was leisurely drinking tea and humming opera in his mouth, looking very good.
Xing Yushu, one of the eight chief constables in the imperial capital, was so calm that he was as if he was fine.
No one believes it if you say it out.
It was this middle-aged man who looked very ordinary, who actually poisoned the two princes in one breath a few hours ago, directly causing the emperor to be the last of his sons and grandsons at this time.
Xing Yu Shu is one of the executors of the plan and has cooperated with many steps.
But even when he looked back now, he was sweating heavily, and he was in a panic all day long, and there was no moment of peace.
He was afraid that the next moment the Emoticon Guard would appear in front of him, throw himself into the heavenly prison, and be severely questioned.
"Eunuch Zhou." Xing Yushu asked, "Why don't you go out of the city directly? If you stay in the city, sooner or later, the Embroidered Uniform Guards and the City Defense Force will conduct a carpet-style search. Can you escape at that time?"
"What's the best thing about going out of the city? I don't have a familiar place all the way, and I have to run away all the time. This kind of exhausted behavior is not good." Zhou Ming smiled and said, "This is a safe house I have prepared long ago. There are people who do business around me, and I often come and go. I can't remember who the neighbors are. Moreover, they don't have any female relatives and don't like to inquire. I just need to stay here, it's safe."
After a pause, Zhou Ming stepped on the soles of his feet, "What's more, there is a basement here. When someone comes, I can just go in directly. It's okay to stay for a few days."
Xing Yushu nodded slightly.
Otherwise, what if Zhou Ming could kill the two princes without knowing it?
His mind is so concise that ordinary people can't compare with.
In fact, Xing Yushu also knew that Zhou Ming must be more than just such a safe house, he had other hiding places, but he just didn't know it.
This old fox never gives all his trump cards to others.
"But you left the two poisoned palace maids and eunuchs in the palace... They will be arrested sooner or later. Wouldn't this be unfavorable to you?" Xing Yushu asked in a little puzzled question: "Why don't you kill them to silence?"
"It's too late this time! Because time is not right at all, and it's easier to expose my secretaries." Zhou Ming said with a smile, "Even if they were caught, they just knew that I ordered them to do things. This was a foregone conclusion... But they didn't know that I was not dead at all, but just found a substitute and pretended to be dead and escaped."
Xing Yushu knew Zhou Ming’s escape route.
Zhou Ming entered his room early, and then took advantage of the little eunuch who was delivering food to come in and knocked the little eunuch unconscious, tied him up, blocked his mouth, changed into his clothes, lowered his head and walked out of the door quickly.
No one was interested in a eunuch who delivered food, so no one noticed that he had been killed by Li Daitao.
Then Zhou Ming mixed in a kitchen waste convoy that sent water out and left the palace directly through the side door.
Zhou Ming was very smart. He had already made a fake identity for himself and pretended to transport kitchen waste with a group of young eunuchs many times.
However, he also put on some plastic surgery and makeup on himself. Coupled with his timid personality, his two big buck teeth, he really doesn't look like the majestic General Manager Zhou.
So the guard at the door knew him, and after a little check, they let them out.
After leaving the imperial city, Zhou Ming found an opportunity to leave the team and hid in the safe house he had prepared long ago.
All this was done without any knowledge. Even if the group of small eunuchs reported it, they would have been a few hours later and they could not catch any clues.
And no one can connect this little eunuch with Zhou Ming, and everyone will only think that he is a pawn of Zhou Ming.
To be honest, after knowing Zhou Ming’s overall plan, Xing Yushu felt that everyone would not lose unfairly.
When you meet someone like Zhou Ming, anyone will fall apart.
It even includes the legendary smartest King Liu Mingqi.
Come back to your eyes.
Xing Yushu asked him, "So what should we do next?"
"No need to do anything." Zhou Ming laughed and said, "Just wait to see their royal family break up! This scene is absolutely amazing!!"
Thinking of the steps and strategies that Zhou Ming told him, Xing Yushu felt cold all over.
Fortunately, I obeyed him before.
Otherwise, he would have been killed by him long ago.
Seeing Xing Yushu's fear, Zhou Ming smiled but said nothing.
He would not tell Zhou Ming that most of the strategies here were thought of by that gentleman.
Including how to deal with King Li, King Ning and Emperor, and how to make them kill each other.
Such a person who is extremely vicious, let alone a victim, is even afraid of me!
Otherwise, I wouldn't have continued to work with him!!
...
Imperial Palace, Gyeongbokgung Palace.
Liu Mingqi was brought in this afternoon, and then the eunuch in the palace told Liu Mingqi that the emperor asked him to stay here.
Then he left.
However, Qianniuwei stood around.
Liu Mingqi looked carefully and they stood around.
It's like monitoring yourself.
No!
Either like it or surveillance.
The boy felt strange now.
I didn't make any mistakes, why did I arrest me and get under house arrest?
And it shouldn't be it?
After all, I am also the prince of the empire. I have made countless contributions to the country and have not betrayed the country and the royal family. Why do the emperor do under house arrest?
It’s not that the emperor went crazy and wanted to get rid of me and clear the obstacles for his son, right?
But neither will.
Not to mention that I have no intention of infecting the throne, even if the emperor is worried, he can pass the level of my grandmother and the level of the court ministers?
Besides, the emperor is not that kind of vicious person.
Then there is only one possibility.
I was involved in something remarkable.
Could it be that the emperor suddenly died?
This idea came to Liu Mingqi's mind.
But if the emperor suddenly died, I shouldn’t have been put under house arrest, but Brother Mingguan should have been put under house arrest.
Moreover, if it is normal, the first thing the ministers need to do is to worry directly about civil and military officials and announce the next emperor.
As long as this title is given, whoever dares to oppose or cause trouble in the future will be a traitor.
Speaking of which, it seems that when we entered the palace, many palace maids and eunuchs looked different.
There are also many more Qianniu Guard soldiers here.
scare!
Could it be that the emperor's uncle died, right?
The boy suddenly thought in shock.
But he immediately denied the idea.
No no no no!
If the emperor dies, then the one who presides over the overall situation in the palace must be Grandma Huang.
According to Grandma Huang's attitude towards me, how could she ask someone to trick me into the palace and then put me under house arrest?
Only the emperor would do this.
For a moment, Liu Mingqi felt a little moved.
Logically speaking, Emperor Jinghe was not so heartless unless it was absolutely necessary.
Wait a minute!
While thinking, Liu Mingqi suddenly began to think.
The second-generation prince in Beijing is not only me, but also Brother Mingguan?
Did Brother Mingguan also be called to the palace and be under house arrest?
If I think of human nature a little more ugly, I will definitely not be me, but Brother Mingguan...
Grass!
Thinking of this, Liu Mingqi suddenly felt troubled.
He walked to the door and asked, "Who is in charge? Come over and tell me what's going on?"
To be continued...
