After the immortal disappeared

Yu Wenxu breathed a sigh of relief, resigned and left.

He knew he was fine. As long as the information He Xiao gave was true and he was willing to give him the credit, it wouldn't be a big deal.

After Yu Wenxu left, King Yao's face was so gloomy that he almost dripped water: "He Xiao found out that what happened to the Shi family is true, and the warning in his note is probably true."

Shi Yi'en hasn't been brought back yet.

And He Xiao said that Bai Tan and Qingyang planned to rebel tonight!

If it were anyone else, if he had exposed a shocking piece of news in such an understatement as passing a note, King Yao would have told him to go away when he was in a good mood, and beheaded him if he was in a bad mood.

But the note was written by He Xiao, so it was completely different. King Yao knew that this person would never act without aim.

Qiu Long reminded: "You originally expected that Qingyang would be on the night of the emperor's liquid..."

"Perhaps Qingyang doesn't want to wait any longer!" King Yao interrupted him, "Bai Tan is leading thousands of troops outside the palace, Bai Hengbo is dispatching the palace guards inside the palace, and I, the three hundred people outside the Frost Immortal Palace, are all arranged by him. !”

Hearing this, Qiu Long broke into cold sweat on his forehead.

In this case, the Lord is in danger!

Wait! He suddenly thought that this ruby ​​box was given to him by He Xiao a few days ago. Could it be...

Sweat dripped from Qiu Long's forehead.

King Yao had served him for more than 20 years. He saw that his eyes were a little wandering and he swallowed his saliva. He immediately knew that he had something on his mind, maybe there was something hidden, so he slapped the table and said angrily: "At this juncture, I have something to say. Do you want me to cut it out for you?"

Qiu Long was agitated and knew that this was not the time to hide his secrets, so he quickly told the whole process of receiving the ruby ​​box.

"A few days ago?" King Yao's face became increasingly ugly, "In other words, He Xiao knew at that time that Qingyang was going to rebel, and he also knew that Bai Tan was the traitor I was looking for?"

Qiu Long didn't dare to speak. He knew that King Yao didn't want his answer.

"Why did he reveal it today? Why didn't he report it for so long? Why did he escape today?" King Yao murmured, "How did he know that Qingyang and Bai Tan planned to rebel today?"

If these two people rebelled, they would definitely not notify He Xiao specifically.

"Either this guy knows something, or--" King Yao narrowed his eyes and squeezed out every word through his teeth, "Qingyang's rebellion is inseparable from him!"

Qiu Long was shocked. His first reaction was that He Xiao was involved in Qingyang's plan, but he immediately denied it.

This is impossible.

"He Xiao encouraged Yu Wenxu today to submit clues about the Shi family's massive grain hoarding!" Qiu Long also thought about it with great fear, "You will only send Tingwei to arrest Shi Yiwei in the afternoon. Qingyang and Bai Tan will rebel tonight! "

These two events are very close to each other and are connected in time.

"They can't wait!" King Yao suddenly realized, "It seems that following the clues of the Shi family, we can definitely connect to Bai Tan! They are afraid that I will find Bai Tan, so they might as well strike first and not wait until Emperor Liujing It’s night!”

"Okay! What a good He Xiao! I had known that Bai Tan had fallen in love, but he kept it secret and didn't report it. He ran away first." King Yao was filled with doubts, "What has he been planning these past few days?"

When he said this, he suddenly remembered that Qingyang had commented on He Xiao in front of him:

"He Xiao has no good intentions towards you or Yao Kingdom. You think he is helping you, but in fact he is harming you in everything he does."

At that time, King Yao scoffed, thinking it was the incompetent roar of the defeated, but looking back now, is there really no truth to Qingyang's words?

Originally, the conflict between him and Qingyang was just a little fight in the court. Ever since He Xiao came, ever since He Xiao had given him advice and suggestions, ever since He Xiao had taken charge of the project for him, he and Qingyang had fought harder and harder, and their hatred had deepened!

King Yao usually educates his ministers, and he likes to talk about the art of knowing people. He says that when you look at people, you can't just listen to their words, but also observe their actions. But He Xiao is really a scary person. He never criticizes Qingyang in front of King Yao like other ministers.

No, no, King Yao thought carefully about it now. He Xiao had never said a bad word about Qingyang in front of him, and had never revealed his hatred for Qingyang. Even whether he was in charge of Youhu Villa or the Tianshui East Expansion Project, He Xiao always looks conscientious and dedicated.

Whether you listen to his words or observe his actions, this person seems to be impeccable and without selfish motives.

And because he seemed to have no selfish intentions, King Yao relaxed his vigilance towards him.

Now that he suddenly realized it, King Yao looked back and realized that everything He Xiao did would stir up endless whirlpools!

He was involved, Qingyang was also involved, but He Xiao, the instigator, escaped and wanted to stay out of it!

"How can this happen? It's really unreasonable!" King Yao was so angry that he slapped the case repeatedly, "You little guy, I will kill him quickly!"

Qiu Long knew that he was angry, but the current situation was critical and this was not the time to be angry with He Xiao.

He could only say cautiously: "My king, since I know that Bai Tan is a traitor..."

Yes, we need to deal with this huge disaster first! Ever since Bai Tan's name appeared on He Xiao's note, King Yao knew that he was in danger, and his mind became calmer.

"Don't worry, no one can harm me in the Frost Immortal Palace!"

He quickly wrote three handwritten letters, stamped them with the Qinghong seal, wore three talismans, and then handed them to Qiu Long: "Send these three handwritten letters to Li Qibo, the lieutenant general, respectively." , General Tu Han and Zheng Da! As soon as possible, as soon as possible!"

He is going to use Zheng Da again.

Zheng Da was also the Chief of the Imperial Palace Supervisory Committee. He was originally responsible for the security of the palace and the dispatching of the imperial guards. Bai Hengbo had just been promoted and was not qualified enough. But not long ago, the fourth prince got food poisoning, which was caused by the negligence of relatives arranged by Zheng Da in the palace, so he was implicated and has been left out recently.

Now that King Yao thought about it, the poisoning incident of the fourth prince might have been a conspiracy, allowing Bai Hengbo to easily obtain the dispatching power of the inner court guards, so that he could place his own men in the Frost Immortal Palace!

Now that King Yao has been alerted, the most important thing now is to remove the power from Bai Tan's uncle and nephew and destroy Qingyang's plan!

There used to be three famous generals in Yao Kingdom, but after Xue Zongwu died, there were only two left. Tu Han was one of them, and he is now in Tianshui City. King Yao wants him to cooperate with Li Qibo, the general in charge of security in the capital, to restrain Bai Tan!

Qiu Long collected the oracle and was about to leave.

King Yao reminded him again: "Be calm and don't let Qingyang and others see the clues!"

Qiu Long took a deep breath, showed his usual calmness, and just pushed open the back door when a young palace man suddenly rushed over and threw a dog in front of him.

"...?" Do you have eyes?

"Master Qiu, urgent report!" The young palace man held a plate in his hand. On the plate lay a piece of mahogany. It looked like wooden chopsticks at first, but it was broken into two halves. "Urgent report from Yuquan Palace!"
