Chapter 431: Hesitation
Midnight was approaching, and there was a deathly silence outside, and the night was dull, and the wind in the wilderness was blowing, making people inexplicably uneasy. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Zhao Jing and Zhang Shihe were sitting in a small room in the Moon Tower, their expressions anxious and not sleepy.
Zhao Jing was disgusted with the matter between King Ling and Queen Jingzhuang, but he also knew that King Ling had been in love with Queen Jingzhuang for twenty-one years, and he couldn't bear to stop them from being together. Besides, the king's desire to respect Queen Zhuang was so urgent, which none of them could stop.
But Zhao Jing and Zhang Shihe both knew very well that things would get much trickier after King Ling got Queen Jingzhuang, especially when King Ling had not yet taken the throne.
However, it is useless to dwell on the past, so it is better to think about what to do next.
"Your Majesty and Your Highness will definitely look for Empress Jingzhuang overnight, maybe they will find this place soon." Zhang Shihe said.
Zhao Jing nodded and said, "Then I'll go and urge my father." ”
"Well, it's been a few hours, they should be ......," Zhang Shihe couldn't help but blush after he said.
He couldn't imagine the fragrant/glamorous scene.
Zhao Jing also blushed immediately, but still pretended not to know anything and knocked on the door of Wang Zhao Teng's room.
He originally tapped lightly, but there was no movement in it, so he knocked a little louder, but there was still no movement, he suddenly felt a little flustered, and hurriedly called Zhang Shihe.
Zhang Shihe shouted a few times through the door, 'Lord Wang, it's time to get up', but there was no response from inside.
At this time, a gust of wind blew, and they smelled a smell of blood and immediately realized that something was wrong.
So Zhao Jing kicked the door open and broke in.
The surroundings were unharmed, and the two people on the bed seemed to be sleeping with their eyes closed.
When they got closer, they found that King Ling and Jingzhuang's faces were bloodless, and their faces were stained with a little blood.
Zhao Jing lifted the quilt they were covering, and saw that blood was slowly flowing out of their chests, and the blood stained their bodies and quilts red.
Zhao Jing was dizzy, and Zhang Shihe's breathing suddenly stagnated.
Zhang Shihe stretched out his hand to probe the breath of King Ling and Jingzhuang—they were all gone.
They just died? Zhao Jing saw the knife in Queen Jingzhuang's hand, and immediately understood, and couldn't help hiding his face and crying.
His heroic father, who would die at the hands of a woman, was too much for him to accept.
Zhang Shihe suddenly felt a sense of relief - Lord Wang, although this ending is very regrettable, I know that you left with satisfaction, go all the way.
The others heard Zhao Jing's cry and hurried over.
When everyone saw King Ling and Queen Jingzhuang naked/naked, they all turned their heads with red faces.
Zhang Shihe didn't give himself much time to grieve, and immediately arranged for Ling Wang and Jingzhuang to wash off the blood stains on their bodies and put on clothes.
Then, Zhang Shihe said to Zhao Jing: "We must not disclose the matter of their staying together last night." ”
Once this kind of thing spreads, King Ling's family will face cruel punishment, this is a scene that Zhang Shihe really doesn't want to see, not to mention that everyone is dead, let's try to help them retain their reputation, this is also the last good thing Zhang Shihe wants to do for King Ling and Queen Jingzhuang.
Zhao Jing nodded again and again: "I know." ”
Immediately, Zhao Jing killed all the witnesses present.
Zhang Shihe pulled Zhao Jing to sit down and said, "Your father is dead, and you don't have the courage to seek the throne, so you should quickly admit your mistake to Your Majesty, so that you may be able to save the lives of your mother, brother and those 120,000 people." ”
Zhao Jing was very upset at this time, and after listening to Zhang Shihe's suggestion, he felt even more confused, and asked hesitantly: "Father is like this...... Will Your Majesty forgive us? ”
Zhao Jing was really not sure.
In fact, not only him, Zhang Shihe is not sure, but now, only the initiative to admit the wrong way is the right way, Zhang Shihe really does not want to see Zhao Teng's descendants to live in this world as fugitives, if so, it is better to admit the guilt clearly, in this way, even if they have to be infamous as usurper, but at least outsiders know that they are the descendants of the heavenly family.
But Zhao Jing didn't care much about whether he was a descendant of the Heavenly Family, on the contrary, he was far more helpless than he liked this background, so he wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of the identity of the 'descendant of the Heavenly Family' forever.
Zhang Shihe saw that Zhao Jing didn't care about this identity, and he didn't force it, but he just thought of Zhao Jing, his mother and two younger brothers, so he couldn't help but persuade: "It's really uncertain, but even if we can escape, can your mother and your two younger brothers escape?" Your father's mistakes are your father's, after all, you are not very wrong, as long as you are sincere enough, you should be able to save your life. ”
Zhao Jing shook his head and said, "I heard that Your Majesty's temperament is very elusive, and I really don't dare to gamble with my life." ”
Zhang Shihe was about to persuade again when he suddenly heard a rush of footsteps, and both of them changed their faces greatly, and immediately hid in the cabinet on the side.
The crown prince led dozens of people into this room, and at a glance he saw Queen Jingzhuang and King Ling lying on the bed, and his face suddenly changed.
At this time, Queen Jingzhuang and King Ling were both wearing clothes, and the blood stains on their faces and bodies had been scrubbed clean, so at a glance it looked like two people were sleeping in their clothes.
But the room was filled with the smell of blood, and blood was oozing from the clothes on the chests of King and Empress Jingzhuang, and the prince immediately realized something from these details, and he immediately walked up to Empress Jingzhuang in three steps and two steps, and called out to the queen mother.
Empress Jingzhuang won't hear his shout.
The prince reached out to probe her breath, and knowing that she was dead, tears suddenly filled his eyes. He looked to the side of the bed, saw the sharp knife, and immediately understood. He knelt down to Queen Jingzhuang and lamented: "Queen Mother, the son is late. ”
Not long after, Zhao Jing and Zhang Shihe were searched by the prince's people and escorted to see the prince.
The crown prince asked the soldiers to retreat to the outer room, looked at Zhao Jing and Zhang Shihe coldly, and said, "What is the matter with the queen mother and King Ling?" ”
Zhao Jing looked at Zhang Shihe.
Zhang Shihe softly told the ins and outs of the matter.
The crown prince suddenly drew the sword he wore at his waist, and took off Zhang Shihe's head with a sword.
Zhao Jing hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy, the prince snorted coldly, and stabbed Zhao Jing with two swords with lightning speed. Before Zhao Jing could scream, he collapsed in a pool of blood.
The crown prince turned his head and said, "When you get to Your Majesty, you will die even worse, and the palace will send you to Huangquan Road." ”
With that, the prince put his sword back at his waist, opened the door and walked out.
"Take them back to the capital." The prince ordered.
More than a dozen soldiers immediately came in and carried them away.
At dawn, the crown prince and his entourage returned to the palace.
When the emperor saw the corpse of Empress Jingzhuang, he immediately fainted.
