Chapter 107 Poisoning
Emperor Kangdi never expected that someone would dare to poison the banquet he personally hosted.
More importantly, the other party actually chose to poison after the banquet at Conti. What a vicious plan.
This time, Kangdi was really angry.
This time, he will definitely not let the person behind him go easily.
He must find out the mastermind behind this and bring him to justice to serve as a warning to others!
"Father calm down!"
At this time, Li Yuanjia came hurriedly, his face livid: "Just now, the commander of the Imperial Guards, Liu Dequan, came to report that Lu Xuanqing found something strange in the imperial kitchen."
"what?!"
Kangdi's expression suddenly changed: "Come here, move to the imperial kitchen!"
"Father..."
The prince smiled bitterly beside him.
"Ok?"
"You don't have to worry about this matter."
Kangdi waved his hand and said.
This time, he has planned to thoroughly investigate the entire banquet. Even though he knows that this matter is related to the palace, he must follow the procedures and can no longer condone it as he did in the past.
It's not just the crown prince, the other princes are the same.
"Humph, I want to see who is behind this!!"
Kangdi's face was extremely cold.
Soon, they arrived at the imperial kitchen.
At this time, Lu Xuanqing was directing everyone to replace the pot of stew.
As the Grand Tutor, Lu Xuanqing naturally had the power to allocate the resources of the Imperial Kitchen. All these things belonged to him.
At this moment, his face was as dark as ink, and his eyes were flashing with murderous intent.
"Master, what did you find?"
Kangdi had a gloomy face, stood behind Lu Xuanqing and said in a deep voice.
"I just checked the ingredients and found some toxins mixed in. This poison is very terrible. It can be spread through the air, saliva, etc., and eventually cause death. I suspect that there are spies who sneaked into this banquet and deliberately poisoned it."
Lu Xuanqing gnashed his teeth and said bitterly, "I think this matter should be handed over to the Ministry of Justice for a thorough investigation. There are many experts in the Ministry of Justice who specialize in investigating cases and arresting criminals. They are good at all kinds of torture and will definitely be able to dig these people out."
"I have already sent people to investigate this matter. I believe that we will have the answer soon." Emperor Kang took a deep breath and suppressed the anger that was boiling in his chest.
Lu Xuanqing frowned slightly. He always felt that so many things happened at today's banquet, which seemed too coincidental.
I don’t know if he was overthinking it.
"Father, I think what Lu Xuanqing said makes sense. The Ministry of Justice really needs to conduct a serious investigation. Otherwise, if someone takes advantage of the loophole and causes a disaster, won't we regret it for the rest of our lives?"
Crown Prince Li Xian stood up and said respectfully, "Besides, so many things happened at the banquet today. Your Majesty, you shouldn't worry too much about comforting us. It's better to take a rest first. We can deal with this matter in the evening."
Emperor Kang was so angry that his lungs were about to explode: "Apart from such a big thing, how can I have the mind to sleep! Order the Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate to all go out. I want a result before dawn!!!"
Lu Xuanqing lowered his head and dared not speak.
He knew that from this moment on, his fate had been rewritten and he had become a complete outcast.
No matter how far we investigate tonight, the capital is in turmoil.
……
The night is getting darker.
The people in the capital city all fell asleep.
suddenly--
A sharp sound of horse hooves rang out!
The Imperial Guards and the Imperial Guards are out in full force. Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night in the capital.
But when they arrived at a mansion, they were told that it was empty.
"Search!"
The commander of the Royal Guards shouted.
Then everyone dispersed and searched everywhere, hoping to catch the thief.
Unfortunately, they searched the entire villa but found nothing.
In the end, the commander of the Imperial Guards left in disappointment, leaving only a few hundred Imperial Guards garrisoned here.
At the same time, the other two teams of imperial guards rushed to the Ministry of Justice, the Dali Temple and the Censorate.
……
At this time, the Beiliang Dynasty, the capital of Beiliang, was thousands of miles away from the capital.
The ruler of the Northern Liang Dynasty was a young girl.
Although she is not very old, her status is extremely noble. She is the empress of the Northern Liang Dynasty. Since she came to power, she has shown a fierce side.
Countless noble families in Beiliang were wiped out by her means.
At this moment, in the Beiliang Kingdom, there was an elite army patrolling. They were wearing black armor and looked murderous.
"Your Majesty, news has been sent from the front line that someone in the capital of Dakang has assassinated the prince. Now the whole Dakang is in chaos!" A soldier came galloping on horseback and shouted loudly.
"oh?!"
The Queen of Northern Liang's eyes sparkled: "Good! Very good! This is a rare opportunity! Hahahaha..."
"The army will set out immediately and prepare to attack Dakang!!!"
"According to the order!"
Suddenly, the entire army set off immediately.
Soon after, they arrived in the territory of Dakang.
The Queen of Beiliang's eyes flickered with excitement.
"The Great Kang royal family has finally lost their patience? Hahaha!!!" The Northern Liang empress had a cold expression on her face, her eyes full of mockery and ridicule: "The Great Song royal family has long been corrupt!"
"I was worried that the Song Dynasty would not lend me troops. Now that the Song Dynasty is willing to take the initiative to attack, I don't have to ask the Song Dynasty for help."
"As long as Da Wei and Da Xia unite, what's the harm in sweeping across Da Qian?"
The ambition of the Queen of Beiliang is far beyond that of ordinary people.
"Your Majesty, Dakang is ahead."
The Northern Liang Queen said calmly: "This time, I will personally lead an expedition to Dakang, crush Daqian, and avenge the humiliation."
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Everyone shouted in unison.
The Queen of Northern Liang nodded: "The army is resting, gather the six armies, this time, I will come in person!!"
"Here!!"
A large army cheered.
“Your Majesty is so heroic!!”
Everyone cheered.
"Your Majesty's divine power is invincible. We will win, we will win!!"
The momentum of the Beiliang army is growing stronger and stronger.
Boom! ! !
Suddenly, thunder exploded.
Then, heavy rain poured down, flooding the battlefield.
The Beiliang army hurriedly took shelter from the rain to avoid getting wet.
This is the habit of the Queen of Beiliang. She likes heavy rain because every time she is washed by the heavy rain, she has a feeling of being baptized from the inside out.
"Huh? Weird, why hasn't lightning struck in such heavy weather?"
The Queen of Beiliang frowned.
Rumble!
At this moment, a loud thunder broke through the sky.
Immediately afterwards, a huge bolt of lightning tore through the sky, illuminating all directions.
Wow!
It's raining heavily!
The wind blows hard and the earth trembles!!!
The originally clear night sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and the sky and the earth became dark, as if the end of the world had come!
