Chapter Seventy-Six: Dragging
Sky City, go to the study!
"Oh? Someone wants to assassinate Lone? Wang Xiong's eyes narrowed slightly, and he put down the brush.
"Yes, the minister's dereliction of duty not only wronged Uncle Zhao, but also let a spy in Tsing Yiwei's team!" Wang Zhongquan said with a hint of bitterness.
Wang Xiong's brows furrowed slightly, and his fingers tapped lightly on the table.
"The king, that spy has already begun to be censored, and there should be news soon!" Wang Zhongquan said immediately.
"Well, Lingxiao City Palace, if there is such a big incident, it is indeed necessary to investigate it carefully, as for interrogation? I'm afraid it's not that easy! Wang Xiong took a deep breath and said.
"What the king said, it is exactly what the minister is worried about, the other party has such a meticulous design to frame Uncle Zhao, he is not an ordinary brainless person! That is in a hundred households, I'm afraid I don't know who the buyer is! In this way, it becomes confusing. Checking all the people in the palace will probably take a lot of effort! Wang Zhongquan sighed.
Dongfang Palace, there are many people in charge of all aspects, thoroughly investigate their identities and their family relationships, but it is not a small project, no wonder Wang Zhongquan frowned.
"Actually, it's easy, and there's no need to go too far. As long as you grasp the source and there is no problem, everything will be solved! Wang Xiong said lightly.
"The source?" Wang Zhongquan was puzzled.
"Everything is according to the rules, you have drawn the red line of various rules and regulations, and no one can cross a certain line, so that whoever crosses the line will have a problem, and it doesn't take too much energy, everything is within constraints. Public is public, private is private! Otherwise, even if you check a group of people, this group of people who are okay may be bought in the future, manpower is limited, people's hearts are unpredictable, my eastern country will only get bigger and bigger, and there will be more and more people, more and more things, all old, public and private can be clearly distinguished! Wang Xiong glanced at Wang Zhongquandao.
Wang Zhongquan's expression was solemn, and suddenly his mouth suddenly opened: "Yes, king!" The eastern country has expanded countless times, and the palace has become a royal palace, there were so many people in the palace before, and the old slave thought that he could see everyone's hearts, but now it is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more people, and it is no longer enough, thank you for the king's guidance, in the future, no, from now on, the old slave must ignore his personal feelings, everything will come according to the rules! ”
Wang Xiong nodded, then picked up the brush and continued to review the recital. Now that the territory is constantly expanding, there are too many things, and Wang Xiong is extremely busy during this time.
"The old slave retires!" Wang Zhongquan saluted respectfully and withdrew from the upper study.
Out of the upper study, Wang Zhongquan immediately went to the imperial dining room again.
The Imperial Dining Room moved very quickly, and soon another room of wine and delicacies was neatly arranged. At this moment, the sky is slowly darkening, and the officials are busy all day, and some people are already preparing to come to the banquet.
"Boss, how is it, I'm all done!" Uncle Zhao came to invite Gong Pan.
"The king's drink, have you checked it?" Wang Zhongquan said in a deep voice.
"Boss, don't worry, this time, no one dares to move, this time I personally checked. Even your Tsing Yi Wei, I didn't let you touch it, you Tsing Yi Wei has a traitor, I'm worried about another one! Don't worry, I've been cooking for the king for so many years, when did I miss it? Don't you eat my cooking all the time? Uncle Zhao suddenly patted his chest and smiled.
"Okay, take a wine glass, the king's drink, you drink first!" Wang Zhongquan said with a solemn expression.
"Huh?" Uncle Zhao's face froze.
"Not only you, in this banquet hall, who is responsible for which drinks and who is responsible for which delicacies, all stand up, each take a part of it with a small plate, and take a bite for me to see, Tsing Yiwei is responsible for supervising!" Wang Zhongquan said in a deep voice.
"Boss, you don't believe me!" Uncle Zhao glared suddenly and said angrily.
"This is the rule, and from now on, everything will follow the rules!" Wang Zhongquan shook his head.
"Boss, your Tsing Yi Wei people have wronged me, do you still want to be angry with him? He is going to harm the king, you actually want to take revenge on me for your own selfish desires? Uncle Zhao suddenly jumped like thunder.
"I said, this is the rule from now on, not for anyone, Uncle Zhao, the king's drink, you prepared it, have a drink and show me!" Wang Zhongquan said in a deep voice.
"Hmph, boss, I misjudged you, if you don't believe me, don't let me cook, it's a big deal that I won't do it!" Uncle Zhao immediately angrily took off the clothes of the head of the imperial dining room and slammed it to the ground.
The chefs of the imperial dining room were all indignant.
Wang Zhongquan at this moment, but he no longer had any scruples about his previous personal relationship, but his face turned pale, public is public, private is private!
"Lao Zhao, didn't you hear what I said? I want you, have a drink, do you pour it yourself, or will Tsing Yi Wei pour it for you? Wang Zhongquan's face turned cold.
"Boss, you even doubt me? I want to see the king, you have gone too far, I defended you so much before, from today on, I want to break off my friendship with you, I want to see the king! "Uncle Zhao is going to go outside.
"Groan!" The Tsing Yi guard on the side suddenly raised his sword.
Wang Zhongquan hardened his heart at the moment, and also found that something was wrong. He poured a glass of wine and walked up to Uncle Zhao.
"What are you doing? What else do you want to do, I want to see the king! My old Zhao helped you before I was blind! Uncle Zhao said with red eyes.
"Catch!" Wang Zhongquan said coldly.
Suddenly, a Tsing Yi guard detained Uncle Zhao.
"Lao Zhao, my Wang Zhong is all favored by the old prince, loyal to the king, I have been guarding against the royal family in the past, and I have never cared about your group of subordinates, hehe, today, I just let you try it for the king, and I didn't suspect anything about you, but you have repeatedly made friends with me, and have repeatedly played the emotional card for me? It seems that I was too soft-hearted before! Let you dare to be presumptuous! This pot of wine was prepared by you for the king, and, as you said, only you have moved, no one else, so if there is no abnormality, you can drink a glass and it will be over, pushing three and four? Today, you must drink this wine! Wang Zhongquan said coldly.
While talking, he had to feed Uncle Zhao wine. The employees in the surrounding imperial dining room were annoyed, but the surrounding Tsing Yi guards stared at it, and no one dared to mess around.
When the wine glass was delivered to Uncle Zhao's mouth, Uncle Zhao finally panicked.
"Drink!" Wang Zhongquan said coldly.
"No, no, don't!" Uncle Zhao showed a look of horror and despair.
The wine had already poured into Uncle Zhao's mouth.
"Poof!" Uncle Zhao squirted away the wine in one gulp, then collapsed to the ground and knelt down.
"The chief manager spares his life, the chief manager spares his life!" Uncle Zhao suddenly kowtowed in horror.
Wang Zhongquan's face changed: "You really poisoned the king?" ”
"I was forced, the chief manager spared my life, for the sake of my conscientious work in the Eastern Palace over the years, the chief manager spared my life!" Uncle Zhao's head is like kowtowing like pounding garlic.
Wang Zhongquan stared at Uncle Zhao deadly, and the faces of the chefs in the imperial dining room on the side changed greatly, revealing an incredible look. Isn't this Uncle Zhao wronged? What, how did he get poisoned?
It's so dangerous, if it weren't for the king's mention, something would really happen today, and it would be really a twist and turn.
Usually, even if Uncle Zhao prepares the wine, Tsing Yi Wei will have someone to check it, then after Yu Baihu has checked it, there may be other Tsing Yi Wei to check it again, in order to send the poisoned wine to the king's mouth, they even did not hesitate to expose the poisonous wine, this Uncle Zhao even gambled himself into it. If Yu Baihu succeeds, it will be enough, and if Yu Baihu fails, this Uncle Zhao will be able to poison again.
Wang Zhongquan's scalp was numb. I really didn't expect that Uncle Zhao, the old man of the palace, would harm the king one day? Has it been dormant for a long time, or has it been bought?
"Take it down, it's a good interrogation!" Wang Zhongquan shouted.
"Yes!" A group of Tsing Yi guards immediately rushed up.
"According to what I said, whoever prepares the food and wine, who personally tests the poison, Tsing Yi Wei will supervise the whole process!" Wang Zhongquan said coldly.
"Yes!" A group of Tsing Yi guards said respectfully.
Wang Zhongquan hurried to the study and reported what had just happened to Wang Xiongyu again.
"The king, if it weren't for the king's mention, the old slave would have almost made a big mistake!" Wang Zhongquan smiled bitterly.
Wang Xiong's brush paused slightly. Wang Xiong is not afraid of poisoning, but this incident has to make Wang Xiong vigilant.
"The mastermind of this poisoning incident is a powerful character, so we must find out as soon as possible, who is it? It's not a good thing to have such an enemy lurking in the shadows! Wang Xiong's face sank and said.
"Yes!" Wang Zhongquan immediately went to investigate thoroughly.
In the evening, the palace banquet continued, and nothing went wrong after all, but Tsing Yiwei was extremely busy.
Not long after, there was another city outside Lingxiao City, in a hall.
"Senior brother, it's a failure!" Dan Zhizi said with a bitter face.
"That Xiao Zhao, but the chess pieces that the sect leader buried back then, how did they be exposed?" Poison Ancestor said angrily.
"Fortunately, we cleaned up and we didn't show up!" Chi Bingzi sighed.
"Oh no, let's go!" The Spider Emperor's face sank.
"What?" The crowd was puzzled.
"Let's go!" The Spider Emperor said in a deep voice.
A group of people left quickly, and not long after everyone left, the small courtyard where everyone had stayed before was surrounded by groups.
The Immortal of the Living Beings Dan stood on top of a mountain peak outside the city, his face gloomy for a while.
"This Wang Zhongquan, the action is really fast!" The Spider Emperor said with a gloomy face.
"Uncle Shi, we don't need to be afraid of them!" Chi Bingzi said a little uncomfortable.
"It's not that I'm afraid, it's that we can't show up, have you forgotten the sect leader's explanation?" The Spider Emperor's eyes widened.
"But how did it go wrong? Senior brother, your plan doesn't work! Dan Zhizi was also irritable.
"The preparation this time was too hasty, I said don't be in such a hurry, but you kept urging, and now the chess piece is also wasted, alas!" The Spider Emperor sighed slightly.
"So what now?" Poison Ancestor frowned.
"Wait for now, Wang Xiong is already alert, and it is not appropriate to expose it again for the time being!" The Spider Emperor sighed slightly.
"When will that be?" Chi Bingzi said reluctantly.
The Spider Emperor's eyes were cold: "Hmph, at the beginning, I said wait, wait, you can't wait for me." In a hurry, something went wrong, is it all to blame me? If you don't believe me, you can go and tell the sect leader that the sect leader will let me preside, and you will have to listen to me in the future! ”
Everyone frowned slightly, wanting to refute, but they didn't say much after all.
At this moment, in the upper study of Lingxiao City, Wang Zhongquan also reported his discovery to Wang Xiong.
"This Uncle Zhao is a chess piece left by Dan Shenzi back then? Oh, the lurking is really deep, and the scheming of this Dan Shenzi is really deep! Wang Xiong put down the brush in his hand and said in surprise.
"Yes, who would have thought that the Shengdan Sacred Domain had already given up the Eastern Palace, but the Divine Son of Nadan actually left a chess piece by our side. The lord once said that the Shengdan Sanctuary Dan Shenzi City is the deepest, and the layout of the world, it seems that there are chess pieces left by the Dan Shenzi in countless places in the world! The old slave couldn't touch it back then, he didn't care, and he couldn't think of ......! Wang Zhongquan smiled slightly bitterly.
"Heh, if this king's guess is right, this time the plan is poisoned, there must be Dan Zhizi and Chi Bingzi involved, Dan Shenzi is such a delicate chess piece, they took a stinky move! Also, I don't know who is planning this time, the plan is not simple, but unfortunately, I encountered Danzhizi and Chi Bingzi! Falling short! Wang Xiong sneered.
"The old slave will investigate thoroughly as soon as possible!" Wang Zhongquan said solemnly.
Wang Xiong nodded.
