The Deer and the Cauldron 鹿鼎记 Episode 44

The emperor arranged for Wei Xiaobao to serve as the superintendent and put his wife and children under house arrest in Cining Palace. Princess Jianning was worried that the brothers of the Tiandihui would not be reliable and could not complete the task, so Wei Xiaobao made the next step.

Wei Xiaobao took Xu Laosan and others to the execution ground to arrange, shaved Feng Xifan's hair, placed it around the execution ground, and arranged the execution environment.

The next day Wei Xiaobao and Duolong were in charge of the execution together. Wei Xiaobao deliberately pretended to be frustrated. At this time, Mao Shiba was escorted to the execution ground. He scolded Wei Xiaobao for being rebellious along the way. Watching the execution on the execution ground, how can we talk about the moment when Wei Xiaobao sneezed his face and missed the moment his head fell.

The family of the emperor Wei Xiaobao was under house arrest. Wei Xiaobao returned to the palace and took his wife and children away. Before leaving, the emperor mentioned the disappearance of Feng Xifan last night, thinking that his seven wives would kill if they didn't agree. As soon as Wei Xiaobao heard this, he was so scared that the emperor asked about Feng Xifan's disappearance again, and asked him to give Zheng Keyun an explanation, because he promised that Zheng Keyun was comprehensive and could not break his trust in the world.

Wei Xiaobao took his wife and children home. Su Quan found that there was an abnormal smell at home. Xu Laosan and others walked out. Wei Xiaobao asked his wife and children to leave, and discussed important matters with Xu Laosan and others. Xu Lao San mentioned that Chen Jinnan had suffered unexpectedly, and there was no one in the world, and he hoped that Wei Xiaobao would be the chief rudder. In order to convince the other churches, he must make great contributions. Today the emperor is good at buying people's hearts, and the more he recovers, the more he will come, so he wants Wei Xiaobao to take everyone into the palace to kill the emperor. Wei Xiaobao mentioned the martial arts of the Xinshu couple. At the beginning, they used their pebbles to hit the rocks. It is the best policy for them to protect themselves. Xu Laosan decided to give Wei Xiaobao time to think about it. Wei Xiaobao was in a dilemma and didn't know what to do.

Wei Xiaobao lay listlessly on the bed and decided to pretend to be sick and thank the guests behind closed doors. Duolong reported the situation to the emperor. The emperor did not believe that Wei Xiaobao was ill, and ordered Duolong to take the imperial physician to check. After diagnosis and treatment by the imperial physician, it was discovered that Wei Xiaobao's body temperature was abnormal, and his daughters cried together. Duolong believed that Wei Xiaobao was seriously ill. Jianning mentioned why Suo'etu was unfamiliar with Wei Xiaobao, and believed that Suo'etu should have deliberately alienated him after hearing the wind that was not conducive to Wei Xiaobao.

Duolong and the others dared to leave the mansion, Xu Laosan came with members of the Tiandihui, Wei Xiaobao lay on the bed again and pretended to be sick, and successfully deceived everyone.

Wei Xiaobao went into the palace to see the emperor. The emperor exposed the lies he had pretended to be ill, and asked him about his visit to Ginkgo Hutong to see the world meeting. Seeing that the emperor knew everything about him, he immediately interceded and admitted that he was on two boats, but he never did it. Sorry about his business. The emperor believed Wei Xiaobao's words and gave him a large stack of memorials on the table to choose from. It turned out that the ministers in the court were unlearned and unskilled, mixed up in high positions, persecuted Taiwan's survivors, and colluded with officials in the court. Wei Xiaobao mentioned that when he came back from outside the customs, everyone indulged himself, and one of them was wearing small shoes behind his back. The emperor once mentioned him, the higher the person stood, the more people stared at him. Wei Xiaobao is now even more unscrupulous in his appearance and affairs. He actually sent his emperor Feng Xifan to the imperial court, and within three days must find a way to stop everyone's mouth.

On the way back to the mansion, Wei Xiaobao was held hostage to the back alley by Xu Laosan and others.
