Wishful Things

"No... His Majesty treats his concubine best... because of this, how could this concubine poison His Majesty! May I ask why this concubine wants to do this!" Concubine Rong was full of tears, looking like this It seemed much more believable than when he blindly supported it just now.

But it was obviously too late.

These words fell into Emperor Qingming's ears, and they were just sophistry.

"So, I'm very curious about what it is for..." Emperor Qingming's eyes were as dark as water, he reached out and grabbed Concubine Rong's wrist, which was holding the corner of his robe, and said: "No matter what the reason is, as long as you tell me who is behind the scenes Messenger, I can see that for Zhang'er's sake, I will spare you—"

His Zhang'er, after all, can't have a mother and concubine who kills the king.

The Imperial Physician Zheng at the side was already in a cold sweat.

But if he really wanted to say it, the noble concubine would dare to kill the king, why didn't the emperor dare to let go of his guts and make a deeper guess?

for example……

What if the little prince's biological father is actually someone else?

The emperor's health has never been very good, and it is very common for concubines in the harem to fail to keep their fetuses...

Speaking of which, it's also my fault that these imperial physicians have always been too reserved about this matter, giving the emperor the illusion that "it's okay to work hard", so that the emperor is too confident in this regard.

And now he would never dare to say such a thing!

If he dared to talk so much, he would definitely not be able to leave alive today...

Concubine Rong is still defending herself: "...the concubine still has Zhang'er, even if it is for Zhang'er, the concubine will definitely not be able to do such a foolish thing! If the concubine knows, there must be someone who hates the concubine. Your Majesty is so favored that you set up a trap to frame your concubine...It must be like this...Please Your Majesty to see clearly!"

Emperor Qingming's hand holding her wrist was still trembling due to the pain, he sneered twice from his teeth.

In the past, he only knew that his beloved concubine had a shallow mind and no brains, but what he didn't know was that what he lacked in brains was courage!

When this kind of fool becomes bold, it actually makes people less defensive!

It's not that he didn't notice something strange about her recently. He originally thought it was because of the death of Mrs. Rong's illness, but he didn't realize that he wanted to kill him...

Concubine Rong continued to cry and shook her head: "Your Majesty must trust your concubines!"

Emperor Qingming's face was extremely cold, and he shook off her wrist.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the hall.

An inner eunuch hurriedly came to report: "Your Majesty, the apse is flooded!"

Emperor Qingming frowned greatly.

How can the water flow in a good way!

Do these wastes still think that there are not enough changes in the Taimiao today?

But his intuition told him that the so-called water leakage may not be that simple at this time...

"Show me this bitch—"

Emperor Qingming got up from his chair and gave orders in a cold voice.

Li Jiying came down and sighed in his heart—before the tea was handed over, he was still a concubine, but after handing over the cup of tea, he became a slut.

With the support of the inner eunuch, Emperor Qingming left the nave, and asked the officials guarding outside the hall, such as Duke Zhen, "The apse suddenly caught fire, has the cause been found out?"

The Minister of Rites replied: "Your Majesty, the fire started from the incense table at first, maybe the sesame oil was accidentally overturned, and the scriptures were ignited—"

As for how the sesame oil got knocked over...

Who can tell that this is not the dissatisfaction of the gods?

First, when His Majesty was offering incense, he suddenly felt unwell, but when the gods saw it, no one seemed to mention it, so...then he added a more ruthless one? ——Let’s see if you ignorant people can pretend to be blind?

Speaking of which, he was not originally a person who worshiped gods.

But who told His Majesty to be the emperor is so disrespectful that people can't believe it or not.

"Fortunately, it was discovered in time. The ministers have sent people to put out the fire. Your Majesty need not worry too much... I wonder if Your Majesty is better now? Even if the fire is extinguished, thick smoke will inevitably be produced. For the sake of His Majesty's dragon body, or It's better to go back to the palace earlier to rest." A minister suggested.

Duke Zhen also said: "It's better for the minister to escort His Majesty back to the palace—"

Emperor Qingming faintly felt that the fire was strange, and because Concubine Rong had poisoned him, he was inevitably a little uneasy, so he nodded immediately.

It's not too late to go back to the palace first, and then deal with these messy things carefully.

However, during the interval of nodding, before Li Ji had time to ask someone to arrange the return to the palace, he heard even more chaotic movements from the back of the palace——

An internal eunuch exclaimed in a shrill voice: "There are assassins! It's not good...there are assassins!"

assassin? !

Why are there assassins in the Taimiao!

This is still the capital, it is clearly a sieve!

The faces of the officials suddenly changed, and Duke Zhen was no exception. He took the lead in protecting the emperor, and said solemnly: "Hurry up and escort!"

Xu Jin, who is also a small official in the Ministry of Rites, who was in charge of following up today, also immediately showed a panicked look, and was about to hide behind the ministers with a pale face.

Seeing this, Prince Dingnan's son hurriedly followed in the footsteps of his future in-laws.

Several ministers felt contemptuous - the dignified Wu family has stayed in the capital for a long time, has he become a boneless coward?

But why don't they want to hide behind?

They don't have the skills of Duke Zhen, if they want to escort them, they can only use flesh and blood to block them - it's just that the official position is too high, they can't bear this face!

While all the ministers were in a panic, the eunuch who reported the letter had already run over, and as soon as he yelled "the emperor", his head was chopped off from behind by a masked man in black.

Scarlet blood spurted out from the blood hole in the neck, and the incomplete body fell heavily to the ground.

The deterrence brought by this scene was extremely strong, and the sense of fear suddenly spread wildly. The eunuchs and eunuchs fled in all directions screaming, and the six secret guards who were guarding in the dark to protect the emperor came out and stood by the emperor's side.

The rest of the attendants drew their swords and rushed forward, wrestling with more and more men in black.

At this time, there were already dozens of men in black who rushed forward. If it is true that the total number of people cannot win, but more guards and inner eunuchs were sent to the back hall to fight the fire. It is not yet known whether they were on the way or were tripped. Stay on your feet.

Zhen Guogong strode down the stone steps, grabbed the long knife from a guard, and personally went forward to fight.

"Quick...quickly call people from all over the place to escort him!" A minister hurriedly ordered the little eunuch who scared the god into panic.

Although the emperor is ineffective, if the emperor is gone at such a juncture and the prince is young and weak, then Daqing will really be doomed!

And these people's origins are unknown, but they were able to kill in the Taimiao, which shows that the current situation is in turmoil!

All in all, even if you fight to the death, you must protect the emperor!

With the emperor gone, Daqing Sheji has only a dead end!

Fortunately, there is still Lord Zhen Guo here today - seeing the old man bravely facing the enemy, many officials secretly rejoiced.

I still remember that in the Lingshan Palace back then, when the Purple Star Sect attempted an assassination, it was Duke Zhen who acted in time to stabilize the situation.

However, as soon as this idea appeared, the reality gave them a heavy blow.

I don't know if it's because his body hasn't recovered after being poisoned, but the old man in the crimson robe is gradually at a disadvantage under the attack of the two men in black.

At this time, another man in black sneaked up from behind him. The old man had no time to dodge, and the knife landed on his right shoulder!

Thank you for your monthly pass, and say good night in advance.
