I just don’t know if it’s to please him or if it’s for another purpose. If it’s to please him, he’ll be willing to accept it. If there’s another purpose, then it’s hard to say. Fortunately, I have 60 years of skill now, and with the Tianzi sword, it’s impossible to be easily assassinated of.
Since the Empress Dowager agreed to have someone send it, it must have been strictly screened, and the safety factor should be quite high.
In addition, what he is doing now must make the Queen Mother feel that he is a licentious and innocent monarch who does not love the country but only loves beauties, so that she can rest assured.
Sixteen women dressed in Western Regions came to his wine table to salute, and Zi Yiwei walked to Zhou An and stood on both sides.
These women are all very beautiful, and their clothes and appearance are different from those of the Qianyuan Empire, which makes people feel refreshed.
The leading woman is wearing a blue green smoked sweater, a pleated skirt scattered with water mist and green grass, and a light blue green water thin smoke veil.
The waist is like a slender willow, and the face is like a lotus. The eyes contain spring water and clear waves, and the muscles are like orchids. A frown and a smile touch the heart and soul.
"See Your Majesty."
The woman stepped forward and bowed to Zhou An, her eyes were looking forward, her eyes were full of spring, her face was full of spring, she was indescribably alluring, her eyes seemed to be able to charm people's souls away.
Zhou An was also bewildered by her expression, and was taken aback for a while, but fortunately, the technique of yin and yang cleared his mind, so he was also taken aback for a while.
Just as he was about to speak, the court lady and two concubines suddenly fell down, and even the purple guards on both sides and No. 7 purple guard who was hiding in the dark also fell to the ground.
"Assassins?" Zhou An was surprised. He knew too little about the outside world, and he didn't know what level his strength was, and whether he could deal with these Western Region assassins.
At the same time, he also began to feel drowsy, with a strong drowsiness, all supported by 60 years of internal strength, but he also fell down like everyone else, and his hands fell to the ground.
Chapter 5 Conspiracy
Soon he felt the fragrance in his nostrils, and the strong drowsiness disappeared, and the poison was cured. He slowly opened his eyes, pretending to have just woken up, and saw the woman from the Western Regions in front of him, showing a guarded look.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. This servant just didn't want our words to be heard by other people, so I made such a bad move." The woman knelt down quickly, but there was no panic in her expression.
"What do you want to tell me?" Zhou An secretly raised his internal strength to guard against the other party's sneak attack, but the other party can give him the antidote, so it should not harm him.
"The servant girl is Sai Naimu, the saint of the Hundred Witches of the Western Regions, and the princess of the Hundred Witches Kingdom. The Western Regions are vast, but there are many countries, more than 300 countries, most of which are governed by each city and country.
My Baiwu Kingdom is one of the nine most powerful kingdoms in the Western Regions. Knowing that the emperor is being held hostage by the queen mother, I came here to protect the emperor and wait for the emperor's orders. "Sai Naimo said.
Surprised, Zhou An smiled and said, "You think I'll believe it?"
"Your majesty has no choice, right? Didn't your majesty find out why the empress dowager sent so many beauties and collected all kinds of medicines? Even if these things are acquired day and night, they will not last long if they are used day and night, let alone the majesty." He has never practiced internal strength, so how can he bear the toxicity of these drugs.
Furthermore, the emperor may not know that the Zuoxiang family has joined forces to assassinate the emperor and break the Queen Mother's plan. It is rumored that they have found the sixth prince and want to make him emperor. "
Sai Naimu handed over a secret letter to Zhou An, and then said: "This is a letter intercepted from the left prime minister. Although it is not clearly stated, the assassination of the emperor is confirmed. If the emperor trusts us, I will swear to death Follow the emperor."
"What if I don't believe it?" Zhou An asked.
"The servants and others can only die once. We know how powerful Ziyiwei is. Our sisters have not practiced martial arts, and it is even more impossible to leave." Sai Naimu said this, not only did not show the slightest panic, but beautiful eyes Looking at Zhou An, he looked like he would like you to pick more.
"Since you don't know martial arts, how can you help me? And what benefits can you get? There will be no pie in the sky." Zhou An said.
"Although the Hundred Witch Sect is not good at martial arts, our witchcraft and poison use are second to none in the Western Regions. Even the great sects of the Qianyuan Empire are afraid of our poison.
The purple-clothed guards have a great reputation, and they have no power to resist under my poisonous gas, which is enough to prove our ability.
If I can help the emperor stabilize the throne, I also ask the emperor to help my Baiwu Kingdom rule the countries in the Western Regions in the future. " Sai Naimu said respectfully.
Zhou An thought that he really needed someone's help. The person who secretly poisoned him must be found out, and his current actions are being monitored and he is not good at detection, so he just asked them to help.
Regardless of whether what the so-called saint said was true or not, at least it would help him in the short term, as long as he found the person who poisoned him secretly, he could rest assured.
What's more, his current situation is considered to be the worst. The more and more complex the forces in the palace, the more beneficial it will be for him. If the Queen Mother's family dominates, then he will not be far away from death.
What's more, his information is blocked now, with these women from the Western Regions, he can still know some things, at least he can understand the force system, and only with reference can he know what class he is in the past 60 years.
Thinking of this, he said: "Recently, someone did try to poison me. As long as you help me find the person who poisoned me and prove your ability, I will agree to your request."
"Okay, this Hundred Poison Bead is refined from hundreds of poisonous substances. As long as it is poisonous, this bead will change color according to different poisons, so as to prevent the emperor from being plotted against by villains."
Sai Naimu took out a bone-like bead, milky white in color, and upon careful inspection, he could find many extremely small holes in it. If he hadn't practiced the method of yin and yang and strengthened his spirit, he really wouldn't have seen these holes.
He looked at it and asked, "How is this going to be used?"
"Your Majesty can soak in this thing in the future. If there is no change within one breath, it means it is non-toxic. If it appears in different colors, it means it is toxic. The darker the color, the stronger the toxicity.
If it is poisonous mist, the Hundred Poison Pearl can disperse the poisonous gas, making it impossible to get close to three feet. ’ Saimour explained.
"Good thing, then I'll accept it, Ziyiwei, you should think of a way to deal with it." Zhou An hid this hidden pocket on his belt so that he could protect himself at any time.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, our Hundred Witches have a secret method that can make them temporarily forget what happened with medicine and witchcraft." Sai Naimu waved his hand, and the fifteen women kneeling below started to move, even taking out black hair from their hair. Hair-like needles.
In just one cup of tea time, these people were all processed, and each was left sitting or standing with a thin needle.
Then the medicine bottle was opened, and there was a burst of fragrance. These fainted maids woke up first, and found that they stopped playing, and hurriedly played the instrument. They didn't understand what happened just now. They were in a daze at such a time. In a cold sweat.
In the palace, they dare not talk too much, otherwise, if they say something wrong, they will be executed.
Then the three purple guards woke up and found that they were still standing where they were, and the women from the Western Regions in front of them surrounded the emperor, serving him to drink with laughter.
Sai Naimu was lying in Zhou An's arms laughing, this kind of situation happened every day in Changle Palace.
They just found it strange, didn't find anything unusual, and didn't say anything. After they were brought in, the two purple-clothed guards turned and left.
Enjoy the singing and dancing of women from the Western Regions during the day, and spend joy with Sai Naimu. In the middle of the night, I return to Qianyuan Palace under the escort of the maids and Ziyiwei.
Having a good day with Sai Naimu and others, he discovered that practicing Yin Yang with a woman who had practiced it actually made him improve even more. After these two days, it almost improved his internal strength for a year.
This is already an astonishing speed of improvement, which made him secretly happy.
After entering the bedroom, all the maids will evacuate, and the purple guards are only guarding outside the house.
He is still full of energy, and he will definitely not be able to fall asleep. For him, the daytime is rest.
When he was bored looking at the room in a daze, he suddenly discovered that the layout of the bedroom coincided with the Qimen. After learning the Nine Heavens Xuannv Lulu, he had already kept the Qimen Dunjia in his heart.
With a quick glance, he found something abnormal. The hard decoration in the whole house often had the appearance of eight doors, which were covered up by other movable decorations, but he still found something abnormal.
After walking around the room, I stood next to a stone pillar and watched carefully. I tapped the various positions of the stone pillar with my hands, and soon found something, showing a curious look. I groped for the lampstand on the stone pillar and found that it could be turned.
After trying to turn half a turn, the floor in the southwest corner of the room turns, revealing a hole in the ground.
He immediately took an oil lamp, drilled down enthusiastically, and found a mechanism on the stone wall inside to close the stone slab on the ground.
At this time, the oil lamps on both sides of the passage automatically ignited, and a green fire appeared.
If it was Zhou An in the past, he must have been a little bit scared, but now he understands the art of Qimen Dunjia, this kind of design is considered pediatrics, what people fear most is the unknown, and they don't have much fear of familiar things.
Walking through the narrow and long underground passage, turning several turns, I felt that I had passed through the entire harem. At this time, when I passed a turn, I found that there was something wrong with the structure of the stone wall here.
