Chapter 552: The Crazy Woman Makes Trouble
After many attempts, the stone wall still seems to show no signs of opening, and my hunch in my heart is getting stronger and stronger, but in essence, I can't think of any way to deal with it. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info but since he found out his mother's whereabouts in Xiao Shengxia's mansion, he can no longer clear the fact that there is no connection between the two of them.
My heart was filled with irrepressible discomfort, one was because Xiao Shengxia had deceived me, and the other was because I deeply regretted my presumptuous conclusions. Why didn't he suspect Xiao Shengxia, since he was Xiao Rui's competitor, he definitely had the purpose of framing him. But what is the purpose of destroying our people?
I couldn't figure out these things, and my brain had a little headache. It seems that the poison in my body really has its hidden dangers, at least now I really feel the pain gradually spreading down my veins to my flesh. A few drops of sweat have increased on my forehead, and my teeth are gritting, and now that I am in front of my father, I must not show the pain and let him worry about my life......
I tried my best to endure it, but finally I didn't snort in pain, and my father on the side didn't seem to give up, thinking about how to open the wall. As the minutes ticked by, my patience wore out, and I was already questioning my own abilities, and my father seemed to be on the sidelines, looking empty.
We stayed quietly like this, and what kind of situation would the person in the palace wall be now? Thinking of this, I couldn't help but speculate, and maybe everything would only have to wait for him to come back and give me a detailed answer. I sat down slowly along the wall, recalling the moments I had spent with him over and over again.
Indeed, I really know too little about him, and I don't know the root or the bottom. I even had the stupid idea of trying to protect him, and when I thought of this, I suddenly felt that the realm in front of me seemed to fall into darkness all of a sudden. Xiao Shengxia, who is far away in the palace, will he really be such a scheming person......
The distant thoughts gradually spread and spread, and finally descended on the main hall of the court with the clouds and smoke. At the same time, he also clearly recorded the course of events in this temple. A miserable cry suddenly sounded above the hall, and everyone looked at it, but saw that it was the biological mother of the Nine Emperor Sons.
As a person in the harem, she should not have appeared in the realm of this majestic palace official and minister, but even if she experienced the pain of losing her son, no one hindered her appearance more. The courtiers in the main hall were shocked when they heard the bad news at first, after all, the death of a prince who was safe and sound yesterday was indeed a strange thing.
"Your Majesty, you have deceived the concubine, our Yi'er went to the concubine's palace yesterday to ask for peace, how could she die without any warning?" The woman cried hoarsely, full of disbelief between the lines. But no matter how much she doesn't want to believe it now, she can't change anything that has become a reality.
Emperor Xiao frowned, and the faint cold color flashing in his deep eyes was also clearly visible. Although he also felt deep remorse for the death of the Nine Emperor Princes in his heart, as an emperor, he didn't want to see a woman who was a woman, and cried again and again in the hall where he talked about business.
His face outlined a cold line, and then calmly ordered: "Ahem, you are still stunned, why don't you send Niangniang back to her palace quickly, do you have to mention more about these things now?" As soon as the words fell, the guards who were waiting outside the hall were ordered to rush in, thinking again and again about pulling the biological mother of the Nine Emperor Sons out of the hall.
They were mindful that the person they were pulling was the dignity of the concubine, and the pulling action was also reduced as much as possible. But this mind was obviously taken into the eyes of Emperor Xiao, and he repeated the order again, which forced the guards to increase the intensity of containment. "You are bold, my son is the future emperor, you dare to be so presumptuous to me, let go! Loosen! These words resounded throughout the hall without warning, and at the same time, it also shocked the ears and eyes of everyone present.
They looked at the birth mother of the Nine Emperor Princes, and only then did they realize that the expression on this mother's face had changed drastically. Her body was so frightened that she shrunk back, her steps staggered backwards, and her face turned pale and her lips trembled, all of which clearly showed the helplessness and panic in her heart.
"Haha, you know that this palace is amazing, why don't you hurry up and salute this palace? If you can coax the palace to laugh, the palace may be able to let the son of the palace, your majesty last time you had some good things~" The woman's words still lingered in the hall, Emperor Xiao did not speak, and few of the onlookers present expressed their opinions.
Everyone held their breath as if they had agreed in advance, as if they were waiting for Emperor Xiao's words. "Take her down and send her to the cold palace." After waiting for a long time, Emperor Xiao's words were faintly condensed in the air. It took time for him to make this decision, after all, she was already crazy, and it was not a long-term solution to barely stay around.
"Yes, my subordinates will obey Your Majesty's will." After saying this, the guards dared to increase their strength and continue to drag Concubine Qi. They knew that once the woman lost her mind, she would have no chance to turn over, so they didn't want to relax the strength of their hands.
"Aren't you all afraid of the emperor of this palace, he is the saint of today, and he is the supreme person in the entire Jin Dynasty!" Concubine Qi's last cry resounded through the hall, but her figure was dragged up along the ground, what a sad person, suffering from both the loss of a child and the suffering of madness.
As the mournful howls dissipated, Concubine Qi was forcibly taken away from the hall. As such, the noisy temple was restored to peace. Emperor Xiao stroked his forehead, his face was full of sorrow, it seemed that he had not been able to live in peace in recent days.
"If you have something to do, please play, and if you have nothing to do, you will retreat!" The father-in-law on the side would even appreciate the situation, and when he saw Emperor Xiao's sad face, he couldn't help but retreat from the dynasty with his words in consideration. But this time he guessed the wrong holy will, and his ears seemed to be slapped on the cheek coldly by Emperor Xiao's next words.
"No, there are still some things that need to be resolved, and the ministers are waiting in the same place, waiting for me to think about it for a moment, and then I will answer with you." As Emperor Xiao spoke, his eyes glanced slightly at his father-in-law, who had just interjected. "Yes, yes, the slave should be damned, the slave is talkative!" Gonggong was extremely agile and quickly found a step for himself to step down.
Everyone can see that the tacit understanding is excellent, and the silent relative is chosen. As courtiers, they now clearly understand the rule that they should not speculate on the holy will at any time. "What I want to say is that although my ninth son is stubborn, he did not make a big mistake when he was alive, so my decision to posthumously crown him Prince Jin can be regarded as a sign that I will not be estranged from him because of the separation between life and death." Emperor Xiao said, and everyone in the hall immediately echoed the flattering words of "Your Majesty Shengming".
"There is another thing, I have found out the grievances of an old incident back then, and at the same time found out the culprit of the people behind it. It was planned that in three days, I would set the punishment for that man. At the same time, the position of the crown prince has been vacant for a long time, and after thinking about it, I finally got a candidate. ”
As soon as this paragraph of words containing too many important matters came out, the sound of discussion and whispering rang out at intervals. Emperor Xiao looked at these people in the audience, but saw that their expressions were different, some were looking forward to it, and some were worried, for the candidate for the prince, it should be that they have been paying attention to it for a long time.
Emperor Xiao deliberately did not continue, he then changed his gaze and glanced at Xiao Shengxia, who had been indifferent since he went to the palace. He actually hoped to see some surprise in his eyes, but this seemed to disappoint him, and there was no throbbing thought in those ethereal eyes.
"The old minister is talkative, I don't know which His Royal Highness is the candidate for the crown prince decided by His Majesty?" The questioner was Shen Jing, and he hesitated for a long time about this question, and finally asked it. After all, he knew that if he didn't ask about it, there shouldn't be any more daring people who could do it.
Emperor Xiao looked at the person who was questioning, and then his eyes showed a sense of slackness that he was accustomed to. As he expected, it was this Shen Qing who cared most about the choice of the crown prince. But now he was about to be disappointed, after all, the person he decided in his heart could no longer be that person......
Emperor Xiao restrained the joking look between his eyebrows and did not immediately answer Shen Jing's question. Instead, he threw words at the rest of the subjects in the audience. I saw that he sat more upright, and said with a serious expression: "So in addition to Shen Aiqing who is so eager to know the candidate for the position of the prince, is there other Aiqing who is also very interested in this matter?" ”
Most of the courtiers chose to remain silent, and of course, a small half of them chose to take another action and choose to express their concerns. Emperor Xiao looked at these outspoken people, Fang determined their respective qualities, and how much he had discussed the selection of concubines in the past, after this test, he was most likely able to know which of them could be said to be heartfelt to the court, and who could be said to care about personal promotion or not.
"Okay, since everyone wants to know, I won't sell it here. The candidate I have decided for the crown prince is your Seventh Highness, Xiao Shengxia. After Emperor Xiao finished speaking, the calm discussion came again, and all the princes of the courtiers had probably considered it, but they only forgot about this one.
But it was this person they had never imagined that became the candidate for the crown prince set by Emperor Xiao himself. How could they not be amazed by such strange things? "Is it the Seventh Highness? How could it be him? "yes, I never thought it was him." The whispered discussion still came into Xiao Shengxia's ears, and he didn't have any mood fluctuations, as if he had expected the courtiers' endless shock.
"What's the matter, ladies and gentlemen? Do you have any opinion on my choice of crown prince? If there is a better candidate in mind, I can't help but analyze and say a few words? Seeing that the courtiers under the palace could only whisper and whisper, Emperor Xiao was a little unsightly. He asked the matter again, but what he got was still a sigh of exclamation.
Seeing that a group of courtiers in the hall had become mute, Emperor Xiao gradually felt disgusted in his heart. He waved his cuffs and directly planned to get up and leave the court, but at this time, a terrifying scene seemed to have occurred outside the hall......
"Protect the Holy One!" As soon as the words fell, the guards who rushed back from outside the hall were each stabbed in the waist, they trembled in pain, and their bodies fell to the ground weakly. Blood flowed down their bellies, and the rest of the guards fearfully besieged the woman with a knife in each hand, not daring to act rashly.
Everyone turned their attention to her, only to find out that this woman with messy hair was actually the concubine whom Emperor Xiao had favored for a while, and the biological mother of the second prince today. She? How could she have become such a dejected and crazy appearance at this time?
"I'm stunned, don't hurry up and pull her back." Xiao Shengxia said at the right time, and his body ran towards Huashang very quickly. He was as fast as the wind, but he still couldn't seem to match this crazy woman. The woman ran straight towards Emperor Xiao, and the two big knives in her hands were waving even more teeth and claws.
Emperor Xiao has always been protected by heavy defenses in an enclosure, where will he prevent this surprise attack in time? He only felt a big chill in his body, and his closed lips shivered a little. The handle of the knife gradually approached, and the face in front of Emperor Xiao became more and more pasted, the situation was critical at this moment, if he was a step too late, Emperor Xiao would be more or less injured.
Xiao Shengxia saw that the timing was just right, and immediately flew two wooden darts in the direction where the woman was. This is made of wood, so naturally it will not harm people's lives, but after all, the aiming position is excellent, and the strength is just right, and it actually knocked down the woman's slender hands holding the handle of the knife.
The woman did not give up the action immediately, she attacked again and directly took down a vermilion hairpin on her head. Xiao Shengxia obviously ignored this trick, and he used the secret weapon again, but he was already a step slower. "Your Majesty!" Xiao Shengxia roared, and with both hands, he also picked up the woman and hurried forward. The hairpin was inserted extremely fiercely, and it was directly poked between Emperor Xiao's neck, this kind of blood-connected realm has always been fragile, and after this fierce attack, the danger is far greater than the safety.
Xiao Shengxia's eyebrows were tightly wrinkled together, and his complexion showed that he rarely showed the fragility in front of people. He hurriedly ordered the ** position on Emperor Xiao's body to stop the bleeding, and then he was about to pick up Emperor Xiao in the air. The ministers were also panicked, scurrying around like headless flies one by one, who could calmly deal with such things when they happened suddenly?
"Xia'er, don't waste your efforts, I know my own body. Even if you have sacrificed your life to give me the dragon qi, but this life and death are determined, and I still can't go against the will of heaven after all......" When Emperor Xiao's body was about to be picked up, he put his head close to Xiao Shengxia's ear and said weakly.
Others may not understand such words at all, but Xiao Shengxia, who has experienced all this, knows better than anyone else. He didn't answer, but stubbornly continued to pick up Emperor Xiao and walk out of the hall.
His figure passed by everyone, and of course he passed by Huashang, who had been pushed far away and had been restrained. Huashang's complexion is also like a blank piece of paper, but the decision he makes himself, even if his heart is broken, he must endure it...... (To be continued.) )
