That being said, there was only a faint sound of instigation on the entire stargazing platform, silent and silent. The delicacies of the mountains and seas at this banquet are even more unpalatable than some dregs and chaff, at least when you eat your nest, you don't have to worry about when your life will be taken away by a word.

No matter how good the food is, it is tasteless.

But after a while, Xia Ji stood up, holding a glass of wine in his hand and said, "Erchen wishes my father the emperor's birthday and Tianqi." ”

Xia Xin smiled: "I heard that I went to the southeast realm a few days ago, and I was injured?"

"It's not a big injury, it's just that I was bitten by a dog, and I was tired of my father's arms. Erchen's injuries were out of the way. ”

Xia Xin said: "I was bitten by a dog?

After that, the emperor's eyes looked at Jiang Xiaoru, who was sitting on the seat and stretched out his spoons slowly, the atmosphere in the air quietly changed subtly, and all the courtiers put down the jade chopsticks in their hands and bowed their heads to listen to the order.

Xia Ji sneered: "Father and Emperor Xing don't know that the fourth prince of Jiang is no longer a member of the Jiang family now, and he was expelled from Jiangzhou a few days ago. ”

"Oh?" Xia Xin looked surprised as he just knew, "Why?"

Xia Ji said: "This son is coquettish by nature, and he doesn't know what to do better than his brother Jiang Lingfeng, and it is only a matter of time before he is expelled from the Jiang family." ”

How could Xia Ji not know in his heart what Jiang Chang'an's purpose was for leaving the Jiang family? But if he didn't say it, he wanted to use this point to try to see if this extremely dull-looking father was pretending to be dull and drowsy, or was he really old and faint!

"So that's ......" Xia Xin didn't have any doubts, and said: "Since that's the case, it's just that, Lao Jiu, you go down......"

"Father, slow down!" Xia Ji secretly mentioned a dark energy in his heart, his success or failure is in this move, these four words are the most ordinary four words, but they are also the most critical four words for Xia Ji, just like the lead of thunder and fire, these four words are the timing of the shot.

The killer among the acolytes will shoot when he hears these four words!

Just when Jiang Changan was watching, suddenly there was a low shout on the stage, and a dagger stretched out from the robe of a person dressed in eunuch clothes on the seat, and this person was like stepping on two fires under his feet, rising and falling from the sky, and the sword pointed directly at Jinghuang Xia Xin on the high platform of the dragon chair!

"Father, be careful!" Xia Ji said excitedly, his body jumped and was about to block the dragon chair but he affected the injuries on his body, pretending to be recovering from a serious illness and struggling to collapse to the ground, with a cold light and a cold smile in his eyes.

Everything is as he thinks, this killer is naturally arranged by him to the eunuch first, just waiting for this opportunity, and then according to his own design, the assassin will assassinate His Majesty Emperor Jing failed, and instead stabbed His Royal Highness King Gong seriously injured, at that time all the suspicions will be concentrated on the body of the thirteenth prince Ming Wang Xia Qi, Xia Ji seems to be able to see that the dragon chair is blooming towards him with a brilliant light-

Burst!

The muffled thud of a dagger into a body.

Surprise –

Xia Ji was stunned, and all the ministers were stunned, even if Jiang Changan dared to know that Xia Xin was deceased, but at this moment, it was still hard to believe that the dagger was firmly inserted into the heart of this majesty.

It's not a powerful spell, it's just such a simple sword.

"How can this be?" Jiang Changan said in disbelief.

Jiang Changan thought of Mo Cang's voice in his ears again: "Cut, your Emperor Xia Zhou's body bones are inevitably too weak, and such a simple knife will not work." ”

Jiang Changan frowned tightly and muttered, "No, there is always something wrong." ”

"Boy, what's wrong, this blood is real, the fallen corpse is real, what's wrong?"

Jiang Changan couldn't say it, but he always felt that there was a strangeness revealed somewhere, and he couldn't say that it was unclear, but it was real.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Many ministers fell to the ground one after another, crying bitterly in their mouths, and no one dared to rush forward, no wonder, many capable martial artists like Shang Dashan and others were summoned by the eunuchs one after another to leave, leaving only a group of old and dizzy old ministers who only knew Confucianism and Taoism.

Xia Ji was shocked, the thoughts in his heart became heavier and heavier, he faintly felt that everything seemed to be out of his control, and then the assassin turned around and jumped towards Xia Qi, and the short sword in his hand also stabbed towards His Royal Highness King Ming like lightning.

Laugh at!

This sword did not fail, as if this man's sword never missed, never disappointed.

This short sword was inserted into Xia Qi's side again, it was not a fatal knife, but it made him unconscious, which was enough to make people frightened.

Many gold-armored guards stepped forward when they heard the wind and surrounded them one after another.

Seeing that there was no hope of escape, the assassin finally rushed the dagger at him, cutting a fiery red thread in his throat, and blood gushing out.

Seeing this scene, Xia Ji suddenly felt like he had stepped into a pit, a pit that had been carefully prepared for him.

Jiang Changan was speechless by the shock of everything in front of him, and he always had a feeling that this matter was not so simple.

Xia Xin was assassinated, Xia Qi was seriously injured and fell into a coma, and whoever rested on him would not be able to bear it and usurp the throne and seek power.

Suddenly, Jiang Changan finally remembered that something was wrong, even if His Majesty Emperor Jing was assassinated, according to common sense, the nine major offerings should be to protect the supreme of the imperial family, and it would never be possible to help Xia Ji set up a new emperor, but Xia Ji was about to hold an enthronement ceremony soon, how could these nine people not move at all? Even if the other eight people did not move, he knew Shang Dashan's temper, and he would never sit still like this.

When Jiang Changan was thinking about it, the statute of limitations of the reverse atractylodes had passed, and the black fog rose again, Jiang Changan returned to his spiritual sense, and the first thing he glanced at was the sky outside the window.

There was one more person in the firewood room, and it was Ding Wu.

"Since you killed the two of them, why didn't you leave just then?" Ding Wu asked himself while thinking, and his face showed a hint of surprise: "You didn't want to choose the way of assassination at all, but to achieve your goal in front of many people, and I just happened to be able to bring you to Your Majesty!"

Jiang Changan moved his hands and feet slightly, and said with a relaxed smile: "Except for Chu Meifeng and Zhen Yunqing, who I can't see through, Xia Ji is the most brainy, and your brain is often more reliable than strength, but it's a pity that your master doesn't." ”

Ding Wu didn't respond, glanced at the two corpses on the ground lightly, and said, "I made a bet with them." ”

Jiang Changan smiled: "What are you betting on?"

"Bet on who will win, you or the two of them, and both of them will win on themselves. I'm betting on you. ”

Jiang Changan said: "Where did the two of them think - what you said about winning is not an interrogation, but life and death." They lost at the beginning. ”

Ding Wudao: "I lost my life." ”

Jiang Changan said: "Then what did you win? They are all dead, what can they give you?

Jiang Changan didn't believe that Ding Wu's decision to lock him up in Zuixianlou, a place that he was familiar with, was a coincidence, there shouldn't be so many coincidences in the world, it could only be deliberately artificial.

The person in front of him wanted Xiao Jiang and Song Simiao to die, or just wanted one of them to die, so as to pretend to be Jiang Changan's hand.

As for why he did this, Jiang Changan didn't want to know, because he knew that even if he asked, he wouldn't say.

Ding Wudao: "You are wrong, I still have two corpses, two complete corpses." ”

"Not bad. Jiang Changan smiled, "These two corpses are enough for you to exchange a lot of things for the Xiao family and the Compassion Cave Heaven, and you just need to say that I did all this, and then clean yourself up." ”

Jiang Changan kept searching for what Ding Wu's next sentence was, and the other party was doing the same thing, every sentence and every word was like a chess game, a game between two wise men.

Ding Wu suddenly raised his eyes to look at Jiang Changan's eyes, and there was suddenly a little more curiosity in his desireless eyes, and said, "I want to make a bet with you." ”

"Bet on what?"

"Bet on whether you can get out of these three forces?"

"Three strands, Xiao family, compassion cave, this third strand refers to ......," Jiang Changan asked.

Ding Wu was silent, and the long knife was immediately unsheathed and placed on Jiang Changan's neck-

"Naturally, this trip is to meet His Majesty Emperor Gong. ”
