Chapter 1180

However, all of this was ruined the moment Zhu Yan returned to Kyoto.

He hated Zhu Yan, he tortured him into Xia Yuanqiu like this, they all said that she was a miracle doctor with a bodhisattva heart, in his opinion, this woman's heart was as poisonous as a snake and a scorpion.

Zhu Yan wanted to tear the thief in front of him with his hands, but his father's life was in his hands, and he didn't dare to act rashly. Yuan Qiu used needles on him, but he couldn't make him let go, even though he cried out in pain. , has resounded through the hall.

He thought that as long as he gritted his teeth and didn't tell the truth, he could at least save his life, but who knew that the palace that he thought he was in full control of would still slip through the net.

A court lady rushed into the Palace of Political Affairs, Xia Yuanqiu looked familiar, but couldn't remember who it was.

As soon as the maid rushed in, she shouted: "His Royal Highness, the emperor is not in the palace at all, Zhou Tong doesn't even know where the emperor is, don't fall for his tricks!"

Zhu Yan frowned, stared at the middle-aged woman who appeared out of nowhere, and asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

The palace maid said: "The maidservant, Langu, used to be a servant of the Marquis of Pingyang. Suffering all the bullying, Lord Hou and his wife bumped into the servant once when they entered the palace. Seeing the injury on the servant, they knew that the servant was not doing well, so they spoke to the emperor and allowed the servant to leave the palace and return to Pingyang Hou's mansion. The emperor's house is kind, He agreed to the request of Lord Hou and Madam, and allowed the slaves to leave the palace. Unfortunately, the slaves just got the news of leaving the palace. Before they were happy for a while, they heard that Zhou Tong had bought the imperial dining room and the father-in-laws who tasted the meals. Someone poisoned the emperor's food. It happened that the emperor left Marquis Pingyang and his wife to eat in the palace. It is said that in the official residences in the capital, anyone who is dissatisfied with Zhou Tong at all will either have their family destroyed or put in prison, and the entire capital city will become a hell on earth, and more than 200 people in Pingyanghou's residence will be wiped out."

The maid was sobbing, for her, the Pingyang Hou Mansion was like a home.

When she heard that everyone in Pingyang Hou's mansion had been silenced, she even wanted to die, but she couldn't die. The Marquis and his wife were still in the hands of this thief, so she definitely couldn't die.

The more than two hundred people in Pingyang Hou's mansion were all silenced?

These words echoed in the ears of Zhu Yan and Xia Yuanqiu, and each word pierced into their hearts like a sharp sword, making them in agony.

Zhu Yan took a deep breath and said to Lan Gu, "You just said that the emperor is not in the palace? What's going on?"

Lan Gu said: "My servant has been a slave in the palace for many years. Although I have no ambitions, I know where to inquire about the news. These days, my servant pretends to be a eunuch and mixes with the people who deliver food to the prison. Lord Hou and the others were rescued from the Heavenly Prison, and Xing Ying and Xing Fang from the East Palace were also missing with them, and this servant guessed that it must be Xing Ying and Xing Fang who rescued the Emperor and Lord Hou."

"How long?" Xia Yuanqiu asked.

Lan Gu said: "Your servant learned about it seven days ago, but I don't know how long they have escaped from the prison."

Xia Yuanqiu's hands clenched in her sleeves had long been clenched into fists, she had never been so angry, she just wanted to kill the demon in front of her with one blow.

Finished him with a knife! Isn't it too cheap for him?
