Jiankang, on the street, a line of people were moving forward, with people in front and behind gathering a ox cart among them.

In the car, the chubby Xiao Qin couldn't sit upright, holding a strange bow in his hand, and looked at it carefully.

The bow handle is made of iron and has a concave in the middle, which is called "arrow platform". The bow and arrow are placed on it, which is located at the center of the bow handle.

Below the arrow table is the "gratch", which fits the inner shape of the right hand when holding it tightly.

The upper and lower bow arms are made of wood chips, to be precise, they are made of multi-layer wood chips, with a stone of bow strength and a "sight".

He is very familiar with the word "sight" because he had heard it back then.

However, the sight of the past was a self-made auxiliary sighting tool by Li Li, and now this strange bow named "Iron Wood Bow" has the sight on it, which is a real sight.

Because the bow has an arrow table, the arrow can pass through the center of the bow and move forward, so the aiming method changes from "indirect aiming" to "direct aiming".

Using this bow to shoot arrows, a person who has never practiced archery much can easily hit the bull's eye of the thirty-step target with enough arm strength and fumble for a few days.

Thinking about how much energy and sweat I spent to achieve such a result back then, I was deeply moved when I remembered the scene of Li Li analyzing the key points of archery to him.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed. The humble Yuliang official in the past is now the governor of Xuzhou and the title of county duke.

Xiao Qin knew that not only his brother Xiao Si had been trying to win over Li Li, but his father also favored Li Li.

If Li Li visits the palace, he is at the level of a distinguished guest.

And he himself was just an ordinary family member, one of the many sons of the King of Poyang. According to the usual practice, he got a marquis and took a free position.

His cousin Cai Quan was his assistant and managed the guard. Although he had no laborious work, he had no hope of taking on great responsibilities.

As the vassal king of the regent, my father was stared at by countless people, so Xiao Qin and his brothers basically did not take on any decent tasks, except for the prince.

The prince will inherit the throne of Poyang in the future, so of course he will take the lead. Xiao Qin, as one of the many concubines of the Poyang King, could only live a life of vain.

Although it is rich and carefree, it is really pale compared to Li Li.

At the beginning of this year, Xiao Qin went to Huaibei to work and naturally went to Hanshan, Xuzhou. There, he met Li Li, who was not sure if he should be a friend or an old friend.

As the master, Li Li warmly welcomed him, an old friend, set up a banquet in the mansion, drank and had fun with him, and also played the piano himself, the wonderful piano music, which made him intoxicated.

Li Li also took him around to visit, allowing him to see the uniqueness of Hanshan City, as well as the long-famous Hanshan Temple and Xuxian Temple, as well as the many horses on the horse farm outside Hanshan City.

There are also strange "horse-use treadmills" and "horse-walking machines". Li Li talks about raising horses and is very knowledgeable.

So much so that Xiao Qin had an illusion at that time, as if he had returned to the fishy scent of the little official who was wearing more than ten years ago, explaining to him the key points of fishing and raising fish.

Li Li changed, becoming a tiger guarding Huaibei, but Li Li has not changed, and his energy is still abundant, his skin is still dark, as if he is still the Yuliang official who fishes all day by the Pengli Lake.

A Yuliang official who is unmatched in the world.

Before leaving, Li Li gave Xiao Qin a lot of gifts, which made Xiao Qin very happy, but it included some incredible things. He really couldn't understand why Li Li thought of such a thing.

But what made Xiao Qin sigh the most was the weird bow combined with iron and wood. Without Li Li's words, he could figure it out that this kind of weird bow can reduce the difficulty of practicing archery.

It may not be easy to use on the battlefield. It is good to shoot on weekdays and hunt.

But when used to shoot, it will definitely be said to be cheating.

Thinking of this, Xiao Qin smiled.

The bow in his hand was sent by Li Li not long ago. Xiao Qin took it to hunt, which was indeed easy.

The ox cart stopped slowly, Xiao Qin lifted up the curtains and looked out, but saw that the ox cart had been parked at the main entrance of the Poyang Palace.

The middle door of the main door is closed on weekdays, and the small door next to the middle door is opened. Xiao Qin got out of the car and walked into the door.

My father was a vassal king and often went to the palace to handle government affairs. The same is true today. He came to greet his mother and go through the motions.

As a result, before entering the door, a large group of soldiers rushed over from the street, coming here with great momentum.

Seeing this, Xiao Qin was shocked and subconsciously looked at his cousin Cai Quan, each of whom saw an uneasy look in each other's eyes.

......

In the imperial palace, a palace surrounded by imperial guards, the Empress Dowager sat upright, and together with several ministers, he looked at Xiao Fan, the King of Poyang standing beneath the steps.

Several guards stood on the left and right, judging by the posture, it seemed that as long as the Poyang King had any abnormal movement, he would take him down.

Prince Xiao Dalian of Nanjun was also among the crowd, staring at Xiao Fan with his eyes, like a cat staring at a mouse.

He looked at a bowl of desserts on the food table next to him and an eunuch who was talking.

The eunuch named Wang Li, with his hands tied up on his back. His mouth was stuffed with a chew that prevented suicide, so he spoke a little vaguely. However, if you listen carefully, you can still hear clearly what this person is saying.

"Yes, it is King Poyang, the King Poyang instructs the slaves, and he is poisoning his majesty's sweet soup..."

"You do whatever he asks you to do?" asked the queen mother. Although her face looked calm, there was anger between her eyebrows and eyes.

"The Empress Dowager, my servant, my nephew, disappeared not long ago. Later, the King of Poyang took the jade pendant he wore and said, "If you don't obey, you will be gone..."

"There is only this incense in my family, so, so..."

The Queen Mother looked at the sob, trembling eunuch, her eyelids twitched. Looking at the bowl of soup on the table, she felt a big headache.

Just now, near noon, my son had a meal, and he had his favorite sweet soup.

According to the rules, the emperor should try the poison at least twice when he eats a diet. The first time is when the diet is just done, the kitchen will try it once.

The second time was before the emperor had a meal, and the eunuch tried it once.

Today is not included, and after the eunuchs (including Huang Li) tried the meal, they waited for a while, but there was nothing wrong with it. Therefore, the food for pastries including sweet soup is fine.

At this time, the Prince of Nan came hurriedly, claiming that someone had poisoned him.

This matter is quite serious. The Queen Mother quickly asked someone to bring in a few dogs and try again.

As a result, a dog who had eaten some sweet soup was foaming at the mouth.

The dog's death deeply stimulated the queen mother, making her tremble with anger, sweating all over her body, and her hands and feet were cold.

Because if the Prince of Nan had not stopped him in time, then the one who foamed at the mouth, turned black and twitched, fell to the ground was her precious son.

Someone poisoned and intended to kill the regicide!!

This matter is extraordinary. The Empress Dowager immediately asked someone to capture the murderer, but the Prince of Nan suddenly attacked Wang Li and blocked his mouth.

Afterwards, the Prince of Nan came up with the whole story one by one, saying that he had noticed that Wang Li was inappropriate.

Wang Li wanted to die, so he quickly confessed: It was Xiao Fan, the King of Poyang who instructed him to poison the emperor in the imperial meal and to kill the emperor.

Today, Xiao Fan, like other regents, handled government affairs in the palace. So, the shocked empress dowager first found an excuse to find other regents at the suggestion of Prince Nan.

Explain the poisoning incident and ask Wang Li to inform the entourage behind the scenes whom he was. At the same time, he immediately closed the palace gates and all the gates of Taicheng, mobilized the imperial guards, and surrounded the Poyang Palace...

"The Empress Dowager is aware of it, and the empress dowager is wronged!"

Xiao Fan said loudly, looking at Wang Li who identified him, his face remained unchanged: "I don't know this person, nor did I kidnap his nephew, so it's even more impossible to use this to threaten him to do anything."

"This is someone who framed the regent, and he was plotting against the regent ministers and was wronged! The weak minister was wronged!"

When Prince Xiao Dalian of Nanjun saw Xiao Fan making a quibble, he sneered in his heart.

He had some evidence to judge that the Lantern Festival Incident last year was actually caused by the King of Poyang, but the evidence was not very sufficient and he could not be convicted directly.

Therefore, he could only wait until the wolf-hearted and dog-hearted person, the king of Poyang, revealed his flaws.

As a result, he really waited for him.

Today, the reason why he was able to appear in time to prevent his nephew from being poisoned and died was of course because he heard the news in advance, so he made a quick decision.

The conspiracy of the Poyang King to poison the little emperor failed.

Now that he has a witness and half a bowl of poisonous soup is there, he doesn't believe that Xiao Fan has any other words to clear his suspicion.

Xiao Dalian looked at Xiao Fan, his eyes were full of fire, and he shouted in his heart: This is a serious crime of regicide, you are finished, your whole family is finished!

The Empress Dowager looked at Xiao Fan, but she was a little surprised and puzzled.

The Prince of Nan had a spy in the palace, and this move was against the ban, but it was not the point. The point was that someone committed poisoning and killing the monarch.

If Xiao Fan was the mastermind, she would have to make the other party deserve the crime no matter what.

But what if Xiao Fan was wronged and someone framed him, then who is the real culprit?

Who is it that he wants to benefit from framed King Poyang? Is the other party just to deal with King Poyang?

This person can actually poison the imperial meal. Now it is used to frame the King of Poyang. What about next time?

Three meals a day, should my son still eat and drink?

When the empress dowager thought that someone was lurking in the palace secretly, she could poison her and her son died of misfortune. The empress dowager was frightened, but she could not reveal it.

She tried to calm down and asked Xiao Fan: "King of Poyang, now Wang Li's identification is framed. So, can there be evidence of personal and physical evidence to prove his innocence?"

Xiao Fanlang replied: "I did not do such a traitor. Therefore, Wang Li's accusations were purely slander. I am innocent..."

After hearing the pale and powerless defense, the ministers present felt complicated: If King Poyang is really the mastermind behind the scenes, then the "cleaning up" of King Poyang is inevitable.

The King of Poyang has so many younger brothers and sons, how many people will be involved?

How many other civil and military officials will be involved? After all, there are many disciples and former officials of the King of Poyang.

What if these people are anxious, how should the court respond?

Wang Bao looked at his in-law Xiao Fan, and his heart beat faster: It’s you? Don’t be you! If you really commit such a serious crime, no one can protect your whole family!

The empress dowager heard Xiao Fan's weak defense, her mouth was dry and her hands were shaking slightly, and she was about to make a decision she had to make.

At this time, Xiao Fan said again: "The incident happened suddenly. The empress was anxious and could not find the personal evidence. The physical evidence was used to prove its innocence, but..."

He looked at Wang Li: "I have a few words to ask about this traitor!"
