Chapter 228 His Panic When Zhao Gao blocked the process at first, Li Tonggu was confused.
Why wait? Zhao Gao said that he was the one who found the guards around the Queen Mother.
It turned out to be the case.
People who fall into the water may not necessarily die.
After struggling a few times, he was rescued and died.
But if a person is strangled first and then thrown into the water, he will definitely die.
"How long?" Li Tonggu asked.
"Soon." Zhao Gao looked towards the lake. After a long time, someone came running to report, and Zhao Gao said, "That's enough."
Was it strangled to death? Li Tonggu looked at the waterside pavilion through the gaps in the dense forest.
It was quiet and quiet there. The Queen Mother's phoenix crown was still exposed at the corner of the window lattice, but now it can no longer be seen.
He looked away and was about to give the order when he was suddenly startled again.
On the lake where the moisture rose after the rain, a heroic man appeared.
The man was wearing the Xuanqing Yuanduan court robe, with a red dragon-embroidered cloak worn when honoring his ancestors, and was standing on the boat.
Su Yu, the commander of the Wei army, punted the boat for him.
The boat was fast and straight, rushing straight towards the waterside pavilion.
"Why is Your Majesty here?"
Your Majesty should be worshiping your ancestors at this time.
The festival is grand and cannot be left easily.
Li Tonggu was shocked and stepped forward, but because he could not show up, he stepped back.
"Hold on, hold on to the waterside pavilion!"
he shouted.
His purpose was just to kill the Queen and the Queen Mother.
Not Your Majesty!
Your Majesty cannot die! "Why do you have to hold on?"
Zhao Gao's sad voice came from not far away.
"It's you!"
Li Tonggu rushed forward with his eyes about to burst, and walked up to Zhao Gao in a few steps.
"It's me." Zhao Gao looked at Li Tonggu with a smile, "The queen mother wanted to punish the queen, and Li Tingwei wanted to kill them all. Only the servants thought carefully, so let's just take it all together! In this world of Yong Kingdom, It becomes our world. Wouldn’t it be better?”
Although Zhao Gao just wanted revenge.
But if you can hold power, that's another matter.
As a chamberlain, it is absolutely impossible to control the court situation by relying on your own strength.
But with a courtier in a high position, everything is possible.
It was only then that Li Tonggu realized that he had been used by Zhao Gao.
He was cautious all the way. As Wei Zhangde's accomplice, he was not implicated and punished, but now he fell into the hands of a servant.
In anger, Li Tonggu could only blame himself for underestimating others.
I thought it was an ant that could be crushed to death by stretching out my hand, but I didn't expect that the other party turned out to be a giant.
"Impossible!" Li Tonggu raised his hand and said, "Arrest this eunuch who is trying to commit rebellion!"
The guards behind him quickly stepped forward, but Zhao Gao's men moved faster.
"Pah! Pah! Pah!" The crossbow arrows shot from the dense forest penetrated the flesh and blood, and Li Tonggu himself fell to the edge of the pond and could not get up again.
"you--"
He vomited blood and stretched out his hand, pointing at Zhao Gao.
He shouldn't have died like this.
He has the ambition to assist the monarch to create a prosperous age.
He was just dissatisfied with the Jiang family's interference in politics, and was worried that the monarch was in poor health and would let the court fall into the hands of the Jiang family.
There was nothing wrong with what he there is nothing wrong, he shouldn't die here.
"Go to hell!" Zhao Gao raised his foot and kicked Li Tonggu into the pond.
Since he cannot cooperate, this person has no value in living.
The crossbowman hiding in the dense forest came out at this time and aimed his crossbow arrows at the men turning the winch.
"If you don't want to die," Zhao Gao said, "just hit women with all your strength!"
The winch rotates, and the water pavilion in the distance collapses due to stress.
Jiang He's voice calling Zhao Zheng from the window was loud and harsh, revealing panic.
She saw the mist dispersing, and the boat came riding the wind. The man standing on it, with his clothes flying, was like the Yellow Emperor who fought against Chi You in ancient times, cutting through the waves and risking his own life.
cannot!Can't come over! Jiang He finally saw Zhao Zheng's face, and she shouted with all her strength.
If only one person could live here, Jiang He hoped it would be Zhao Zheng.
The Seven Kingdoms have just been reunited, and there is still a long way to burden on his shoulders is very heavy.
Zhao Zheng also looked up at her.
There was anxiety, anger, and more of fear in his eyes.
Fearing that the cruel arrangements of fate would take her away from him.
At this moment, the waterside pavilion suddenly fell into the lake.
The water poured in and buried Jiang He and the Queen Mother in the water.
Will she use the waterside pavilion as a coffin and sink in the lake, unable to escape forever? In fear and despair, Jiang He was poured a mouthful of water.
There is no more air in the chest.
The festival was about to begin.
Zhao Zheng had already held up the fragrance and walked to the ancestor's spiritual tablet to pay homage.
But at this moment, from the corner of his eye, he saw Li Wenzhou suddenly turn around and say person who came to report the news was a young chamberlain with a very angry face.
Zhao Zheng stood where he was, ignoring Lord Fengchang's anxiety to keep track of the time and asked, "What's wrong?"
Li Wenzhou shook his head and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, it's nothing."
It's not convenient for him to explain now.
The man who came to report the news was from the chariot Zhao Gao, whom he and Zongjun suspected of having a problem, was also from there.
You can't believe what they say.
Zhao Zheng turned around, kowtowed after paying homage.
The moment he kowtowed, he suddenly felt his heart tightening inexplicably.
Zhao Zheng took the grains handed over by Lord Fengchang and became increasingly uneasy.
Ever since he started taking the medicine made by Jiang He, his heart had not felt uncomfortable for a long time.
Now, it seems like something bad has happened.
Zhao Zheng simply walked up to Li Wenzhou and asked, "What did he say?"
Li Wenzhou had no choice but to tell the truth.
"The man reported that he saw Li Tingwei leading a group of soldiers and horses to the dense forest near the lake. He said that the Queen and the Queen Mother also went there, so he reported it."
Zhao Zheng trusted Li Tonggu.
He worked with self-denial and devotion to public service, never engaging in corruption or favoritism.
But even so, Zhao Zheng felt even more panicked.
The grain bowl handed over by Lord Fengchang was thrown to Li Wenzhou by Zhao Zheng.
He turned around and strode off the altar.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... don't miss the right moment."
Lord Fengchang was almost screaming.
However, Zhao Zheng was so flustered that he didn't even take off the red cloak he wore for the ceremony.
If you were panicked before.
So when he saw the waterside pavilion tilting, heard Jiang He shouting, or even the waterside pavilion collapsed, Zhao Zheng was not only panicked, but also at a loss.
Without thinking too much, he jumped into the water.
Su Yu followed Zhao Zheng and jumped into the water.
Zhao Zheng went downstream.
His swimming ability was learned in the state of Chu.
At that time, someone pushed him into the pond while he was not paying attention.
After almost losing his life, Zhao Zheng decided to learn swimming.
He can't have too many weaknesses.
His weakness is just Jiang He.
This is not the shallow lake rumored to be.
The lake is so deep that if you dive even slightly, your vision will be blurry.
He saw the collapsed waterside pavilion and the windows of the waterside pavilion. He tried to get closer, but he couldn't hold his breath.
Zhao Zheng swam back to the water and found that more and more people were jumping into the water and swimming towards this side.
If the queen falls into the water and has to think about how to save her, then the king falls into the water and has to save his life.
Even if you can't swim, you still have to jump in.
"Your Majesty, come up quickly and let us rescue you!"
Many people shouted this.
However, Zhao Zheng took a deep breath and continued to dive.
He swam into the small window, and Su Yu also swam in, gesturing to Zhao Zheng.
Zhao Zheng ignored Su Yu's intentions. In the dim sight, he found Jiang He and the Queen Mother lying in the corner.
Su Yu pulled the Queen Mother out first, and Zhao Zheng pulled Jiang He, but found that Jiang He's feet were pinned down by a piece of wood.
This was because she was standing by the window to stop Zhao Zheng, and the wooden frame by the window was loose and easy to break.
Su Yu came to pull Zhao Zheng and asked him to take the Queen Mother out first.
Zhao Zheng did not move.
He lifted the log with all his strength, his face deformed in the water, and he almost fainted from the rapid consumption.
But he carried the log and didn't want to let go.
He was afraid that if he let go, he would have to come up for air again.
And in that case, Jiang He would have stayed in the water for too long.
For some reason, a scene from long ago suddenly appeared in Zhao Zheng's mind.
At that time, Zhiyang Palace was set on fire. Jiang He held the beam on his legs and refused to let go.
Then it was fire, now it is water.
She saved him, and he came to save her.
Their relationship seemed to have come to an end at this time.
Are we going to end up drowning in the water together?
Just then the wood gave way.
Zhao Zheng stretched out his hand, hugged Jiang He in his arms, and used his last bit of strength to float up.
She closed her eyes tightly, and her original vivid expression disappeared, like a dream that had appeared before but was about to disappear.
The most beautiful dream.
