Chapter 220: Stalemate

The assassin's assassination failed, and this matter soon reached the ears of Lan Guifei, who said angrily and annoyed to the palace people: "This palace has done a lot to raise you waste, a group of wastes who are not enough to achieve and more than to fail. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

She yelled and made trouble at the palace people, and the palace people had to bow their heads and pray: "Niangniang, don't be angry, since this queen is still in the palace, we will have other opportunities to deal with her in the future, and we won't worry about this for a while." ”

When Concubine Lan heard this, the anger in her heart was even worse, she pointed to the tip of the palace people's noses and said, "What do you waste know, there will be no need to seize the throne after a while." Of course, she won't mention this matter to the palace people in detail, after all, it is a secret between her and the king of Zhenbei, the fewer people who know, the better, she thought of the assassin's matter, and suddenly ordered the palace people, "You remember not to let the assassin stay alive, otherwise everyone will be implicated, and it will be tricky at that time." ”

The palace people trembled and replied, "Niangniang, please rest assured, even if the assassins fall into their hands, they will not live. ”

Lan Guifei breathed a sigh of relief in this regard, she didn't want Shen Tianao to catch the assassin, it would be very troublesome for her side at that time, and it would also implicate the King of Zhenbei, after all, this matter was not discussed with the King of Zhenbei, and she was a little panicked in her heart.

Shen Tianao sent people to search near Concubine Chen's dormitory, and finally caught a suspicious person, Liu Ying led someone to arrest the person, and the person fled in a hurry, Liu Ying chased after him, he drew his sword to the person, and the person who was fleeing also hurriedly pulled out his sword, Liu Ying sneered and said: "If you are an ordinary palace person, where will you carry a weapon, it can be seen that your identity is the assassin." ”

When the assassin saw that his identity was revealed, he no longer hid, but simply said with a fierce look: "What if I am that person?" ”

Liu Ying and the assassin fought and said, "I advise you to admit defeat obediently, maybe there is still a way to live." ”

The assassin laughed and said, "Since the day I became an assassin, I have not thought of living, I am not afraid of death, but unfortunately I failed to kill the queen, if it wasn't for that concubine who blocked that secret weapon for her, I would not have missed at all." ”

Liu Ying saw that the assassin still did not get lost at such a time, he shot very hard, but every time the sword went out, he tried not to hurt the assassin's lifeline, so that he could catch the alive, and he could ask more things when the time came.

But the more he let the assassin, the assassin was ruthless, and every move was eager to kill Liu Ying, he secretly cursed: "Don't think that I don't know who you are, don't want to escape from here today, either be captured by me alive or die under my sword." ”

After speaking, Liu Ying used ten percent of his efforts to fight towards the assassin, the assassin gradually fell behind, and the rest of the people also surrounded the assassin, the assassin saw that there was no hope of escaping, he laughed a few times, and the sword that should have been stabbed at Liu Ying suddenly changed direction and stabbed himself.

"You ......" Liu Ying couldn't say a word because he was angry, he didn't expect the assassin to be like this.

Blood flowed from the assassin's mouth, and he knew that he was about to die, but until then he still had a sinister smile on his face, and he said with a triumphant face, "This is the third option, I would rather end my life myself, and I will not die under your sword." ”

Liu Ying saw the assassin slowly close his eyes, and he scolded the assassin: "Master does not want to kill you, lest you defile your sword." "As soon as the assassin died, the result he wanted to hear would have to be lost.

"Drag his body out and feed it to the dogs, so that it will not be buried in the ground and pollute the land." Liu Ying instructed the attendants, "By the way, let's see if there is anything special about his corpse."

The attendants touched the assassin's corpse, but they didn't find anything special, so they could only reply to Liu Ying: "There is nothing special on him, it seems that he came to assassinate Niangniang with the determination to die." ”

Liu Ying scolded in a low voice: "They actually raised some dead soldiers, it seems that things will be very tricky in the future." He deeply felt the seriousness of this matter, if they used these people to deal with His Majesty, it would be troublesome, the more he thought about it, the more panicked he felt, this matter needed to be mentioned to His Majesty earlier.

He quickly met with Shen Tianao, and said to Shen Tianao: "Your Majesty, that assassin is a dead soldier they cultivated, and the minister failed to save his life, and the minister was derelict in his duties, please punish Your Majesty." ”

Shen Tianao's phoenix eyes narrowed, and said to Liu Ying: "You don't have to worry about my affairs, but the queen's side must send someone to protect it, since the assassination happened, I have palpitations in my heart, if it was her who had an accident at that time, the consequences would be unimaginable, and I have to tell the queen that she had better stay in Qifeng Palace, which is the safest place at present." ”

"Your Majesty, rest assured, this matter will be mentioned to the queen, and the minister believes that the queen is a reasonable person and will be able to understand Your Majesty's painstaking efforts." Liu Ying promised Shen Tianao, but after hearing this order, he still felt a little embarrassed, because Gu Qingcheng had always liked to walk around the palace, and it was a little embarrassing to only let her stay in Qifeng Palace at this time.

He came to Qifeng Palace and said to Gu Tingcheng stubbornly: "It's better for Niangniang to stay in Qifeng Palace recently, now the palace is not very safe, and the ministers will send more people to protect Niangniang's safety." ”

Gu Tingcheng chuckled at him and said, "Guard Liu's words are for the sake of the palace, of course the palace will do it, but it is hard for you and other guards." ”

Liu Ying suddenly smiled, he didn't expect Gu Qingcheng to agree like this, this queen mother was notoriously stubborn, and he was really happy that he could persuade her at this time.

"How's the matter with the Assassins? Is there a clue? Gu Qingcheng asked him, she wanted to give an explanation to the dead Concubine Chen, after all, she died because of her, no matter what, she felt guilty about Concubine Chen in her heart.

"Mother, the assassin killed himself." Liu Ying said with a heavy face, he failed to stop the assassin who committed suicide, nor did he find other clues, although he knew in his heart that it was Lan Guifei who sent someone to do it, but at present, when there were no clues, he couldn't just accuse Lan Guifei of the incriminating evidence.

After Gu Qingcheng heard this, she chuckled and said: "The fox will show its tail one day, just grab its tail at that time, this palace doesn't believe that they will keep it hidden." She knew that since Concubine Lan and King Zhenbei had taken this step, there would definitely be no way to turn back, and there would be a fight to the death with Shen Tianao at that time, and it was unknown who would win.

However, Gu Qingcheng hoped from the bottom of his heart that Shen Tianao could win, only if he won the King of Zhenbei, Shen Mochen would not be killed. (To be continued.) )
