Chapter 220 Tell me, where is Zong Kui? !
Beisu's open entry into the city immediately caused heated discussions in the capital.
Soon, before the Ministry of Rites could react, the palace had received the news.
Empress Dowager Xie, who was originally planning to cut off the source of the problem, narrowed her fox-like eyes, which were originally filled with hostility, and finally smiled after hearing the news.
"It really is worthy of him."
Empress Dowager Xie's words revealed her admiration for Zong Kui, and even Nanny Jiang did not ask about Zong Kui's next plan.
Empress Dowager Xie always thought that this sudden incident was completely beyond Zong Kui's expectations, leaving him with no way to respond.
After all, Zong Kui didn't expect to be recognized, let alone be left in Dongchu.
He never thought that someone could poison him.
However, despite all these accidents, even in desperate situations, Zong Kui always left himself a glimmer of hope.
It turns out that Zong Kui's trump card is to reveal his identity.
Empress Dowager Xie had already guessed the next move of the envoy from Nanqing, so before Emperor Ming gave his opinion, she sent someone to notify the Ministry of Rites, inquire about his purpose and receive him solemnly.
And she finally didn't have to go to the extreme step.
If there was no other way out, Empress Dowager Xie would not be willing to completely break with that clan.
After all, even if Zongkui died, the people of that clan would definitely not give up.
It will definitely be a headache-inducing situation.
What's more, the saint of their tribe is still alive.
Now that Beisu has entered the capital, he must have made all the plans. All Empress Dowager Xie has to do is cooperate.
However, Empress Dowager Xie never took Emperor Ming's opinions to heart. It didn't matter what Emperor Ming thought.
In the Yangxin Palace, Emperor Ming sneezed several times in succession.
Before he could figure out how to respond, he didn't expect that Empress Dowager Xie's oral order had already been spread. After Emperor Ming knew the content of the oral order, he knew that this time, Empress Dowager Xie still wanted to help Zongkui.
So, his attitude can be hidden.
That's it now.
"Your Majesty, it's better to wait and see." Eunuch Feng followed Emperor Ming again. He should have remained silent.
But seeing Emperor Ming's expression, Eunuch Feng couldn't help but speak.
"Which side are you on?" Emperor Ming snorted coldly, looking at his close friend. Although he could no longer trust him as much as he had at the beginning, he now wanted him to make a choice.
Should I choose him or Empress Dowager Xie?
Eunuch Feng can only choose one between the two of them.
Emperor Ming wanted to know the result. The deep affection between master and servant over the years could not compare to the fact that Eunuch Feng was originally Empress Dowager Xie's man.
Eunuch Feng knelt down and said, "This old servant only has His Majesty in his heart."
Regardless of whether what he said was true or false, his attitude was extremely pious.
"My dear friend, I trust you again!" Emperor Ming said solemnly. At the moment, Empress Dowager Xie seemed to have the idea of becoming regent again.
The moment she came from the Cining Palace to the Yangxin Palace to give orders, Emperor Ming's fear of being dominated followed him again.
This is not the status quo that Emperor Ming wanted.
He ascended the throne not only to thank the Queen Mother, but also for his own ambitions.
But if an emperor cannot do whatever he wants, then there is no point in being an emperor.
In particular, Empress Dowager Xie was too strong and really went too far.
"Your Majesty, please continue to trust me. I am willing to die for you!" Eunuch Feng said with a choked voice.
When Eunuch Feng was first sent to the emperor's side, he was the least noticeable one.
But along the way, it was Eunuch Feng who finally gained the emperor's favor. The bullied prince and the bullied eunuch began to sympathize with each other and then began to support each other.
They are actually companions.
But Eunuch Feng was originally the Empress Dowager's man. After he became the most trusted person around the Emperor, Empress Dowager Xie often threatened Eunuch Feng.
But Eunuch Feng had never actually done anything detrimental to the emperor.
He has a clear conscience.
But, there are regrets.
If he had not been the Queen Mother's man from the beginning, there would not be the alienation between the emperor and his subjects now.
"Then you should find someone to inform the cold palace that something is wrong." Emperor Ming said in a low voice. He looked at Eunuch Feng with sharp eyes. This was an order to him, and also a test of his attitude.
You know, it is really difficult to bypass the Queen Mother in this matter.
But if it really happened, it would mean that Eunuch Feng only listened to Emperor Ming.
This is the letter of allegiance that Emperor Ming gave to Eunuch Feng. It all depends on whether he is willing to sign his name.
Eunuch Feng looked up at the Emperor. They said the royal family was ruthless. The Emperor's order was a bit unreasonable, but Eunuch Feng gritted his teeth and agreed.

At this moment, the cold palace was filled with shouts and cries of killing.
Su Mo, who happened to be in the palace, came to assist with the Five Cities Army. Together with the palace guards and the Jinwu Guards, they attacked from the front.
The person guarding the cold palace refused to open the door.
"Do you have the emperor's edict? Without the emperor's order, you are forcing the emperor to abdicate and treason!" said the principal of the guards guarding the cold palace.
"You running dogs of Nanqing, prepare to die!" Some of the Jinwu Guards had relatives who died in the battle of Gu'an, and they couldn't help but tear their eyes apart when they saw these people in front of them.
Soon the cold palace was in chaos.
However, Zhan Wang and Su Jixue were both in the backyard. They and Xiaoying broke through the high wall. Those who blocked them were the real masters of Nanqing.
The confrontation here was far more intense than that at the entrance to the cold palace.
The Great Wilderness Mountain and the ruler of the Great Wilderness Mountain.
There was a war that year.
Now, there is another battle.
This is a silent fight, a fight for life.
They all knew who each other was, even better than those who were shouting and killing in the distance.
That's why I'm so jealous.
They are enemies, mortal enemies.
"What? You guys want to kill our young master? You're dreaming! I didn't kill you back then, but now you come here to die!" Xisu was responsible for intercepting the siege on the high wall. He looked at the people in front of him with disdain.
These remnants of the Great Wilderness Mountain have long been eliminated!
"Xisu and Dongsu are both dead. How long do you think you can live?!" Su Jixue was not as arrogant as him, but she knew how to hurt him the most.
"Dongsu is dead?!"
Xisu was truly shocked by this news. He had been hiding behind the crowd but suddenly rushed to the front: "How did Dongsu die?! Who killed him?!"
Dongsu and Xisu have the deepest relationship, so when Xisu heard the news, he was completely unable to accept it.
"Of course it was me who killed him!" Su Jixue suddenly flashed in front of Xisu. Xisu was different from Dongsu. Dongsu was at the top of the four constellations because of its powerful military force.
But Xisu relies on his brain.
Dongsu has always been responsible for protecting Xisu, and Dongsu has always been able to protect Xisu, so Xisu never thought that anyone would be able to break through to him.
Su Jixue swept the dagger and killed the two guards around Xisu. He stretched out his hand and grabbed Xisu's neck directly: "Tell me, where is Zongkui?!"
