341 Assassination of Wang Xiang
"What? The emperor is actually in the hands of Shen Jingshi, so who is the person sitting on the court now? β
The hall suddenly became a pot of porridge, and the ministers talked about it. The situation is completely out of control.
Qu Wurong couldn't help but regret his decision just now, and took advantage of the time that Shen Jingshi gave him to transfer troops. Because there are eight or nine people in the palace who are Shen Liancheng, and he brought two thousand elite soldiers here, no one can do anything if he launches a coup d'Γ©tat. The troops he deployed last night were obviously not enough, so he had to transfer troops from the camp in the north of the city. Let Shen Jingshi say so many words in His Royal Highness, just to buy time to transfer troops, I didn't expect to lift a stone to hit my own feet, and now it is too late to regret it.
"Shen Jingshi, what are you talking nonsense here? It's obvious that the emperor is sitting in the hall, but you dare to slander the emperor, it seems that you are impatient. β
Just when the situation was out of control, Shen Liancheng stepped forward. As soon as everyone saw Shen Liancheng stand up, no one dared to say a word more. Shen Liancheng's current words are more deterrent than Shen Wu'an and Qu Wurong.
Shen Jingshi looked back at him with disdain and said with a smile: "I knew you would come, I think when I was the prince, you followed me like a pug, and now that the prince has lost power, you are with Shen Wu'an, a well-dressed beast, and Qu Wurong, a ruthless poisonous queen." I think you are a good match for Qu Wurong, the same brazenness, and the same viciousness. This prince sues you today, if anyone dares to touch me, you will wait to collect Shen Wu'an's body! Wang Xiang, if you don't get off the throne for me, how can a slave like you sit on the throne of my Shen family? β
Wang Xiang stood up imposingly and said, "You dare to slander my reputation here, I think you are tired of living." Someone, give me Shen Jingshi a knife and divide the body on the spot. β
Qu Wurong didn't expect Wang Xiang to issue such an order. Shen Wuan's life is in his hands, and anyone can take this risk, but he can't. She can't watch Shen Wu'an die, even if her position is not guaranteed today, as long as she can see Shen Wu'an alive, even if she dies together in the end, there is nothing to regret.
"Wait, Shen Jingshi, although you are talking nonsense here today, you and Your Majesty are brothers, so we don't care about this matter. Go away alone! Concubine Xiao Shufei and Shen Liang are still waiting for you in Wuyi Lane. This is my last chance for you, and you should stop ignoring God's grace. β
As soon as people understand it, they know that Qu Wurong is a pun, on the one hand, it is to show the benevolence of himself and Shen Wu'an, and on the other hand, it is to tell Shen Jingshi that his wife and children are still in his hands, if Shen Jingshi dares not to listen to him, he will never see his family. Shen Liancheng is a person who understands, and he understands Qu Wurong's words as soon as he hears them. It turned out that Shen Wu'an had let Shen Jingshi take him away, so Shen Jingshi must not leave here today.
"Qu Wurong, what happened to Concubine Xiao Shu and Shen Liang? Tell me, what have you done to them? β
Qu Wurong knew that Shen Jingshi's weakness was Concubine Xiao Shufei and his son, although he was insidious and vicious, he had always cherished Concubine Xiao Shu, and the husband and wife respected each other like guests. When Emperor Zuo was in power, he also specially presented a acacia tree to their husband and wife to commend them for being a model for couples in the world. On that day, Shen Jingshi launched a rebellion, Shen Liancheng arrested Concubine Xiao's mother and son, and when Shen Wu'an ascended to the throne, he also persuaded him to cut the grass and eradicate the roots. Shen Wu'an insisted on going his own way and wanted to leave a bloodline for Shen Jingshi. Until now, she didn't know whether Shen Wu'an's decision that day was wrong or right, but it was obvious that Shen Jingshi was tempted. Good is rewarded with good, and evil is rewarded with evil. This sentence has always been true.
"On that day, you raised an army to rebel, and King Cheng wanted to behead your wife and children, but His Majesty personally rescued their mother and son from the knife, placed them in the Wuyi Alley outside the city, and sent heavy troops to protect them, and they are living very well now."
"Shen Liancheng, I didn't expect you to be so ruthless, and you were unwilling to let go of even a woman and child. You want to be the emperor, don't you? I sue you, this world is my Shen Jingshi, and I am Shen Jingshi. β
Shen Jingshi said and turned around and said: "Qu Wurong, you immediately send someone to take my wife and children into the palace, and then let Shen Wu'an abdicate and make way for Xian, I promise not to kill him, and I will let you husband and wife live." β
When Shen Liancheng heard it, he knew that this was Qu Wurong provoking the relationship between himself and Shen Jingshi. He originally wanted to use Shen Jingshi's general Qu Wurong to lead an army, but who knew that this extremely cunning woman would actually rebel against his own army. Now he has to get rid of Shen Jingshi by himself, forcing him to poison Shen Wu'an. At that time, only one person in the world can be the emperor.
"Shen Jingshi, you are a chaotic minister and thief, not to mention killing your father first, today you threatened the queen mother in front of all the ministers, it seems that you don't want to live today. Then I will send you to the western heavens. β
Although Shen Jingshi's martial arts are not bad, compared to Shen Liancheng, who is in charge of the Broken Soul Tower, it is simply heaven and earth. Shen Liancheng has been in charge of the Broken Soul Tower for many years, so he has learned the martial arts of many sects. I saw that between the calcium carbide firelight, Shen Jingshi had an extra sword in his chest. Before he could react, Shen Liancheng had already returned to his original position.
"This is the fate of threatening the queen mother and Her Majesty."
Shen Jingshi's face was full of pain and said: "Shen Liancheng, you γγγγγγ γγγγγγ so ruthlessγγγγγ ruthless γγγγγγ"
Before he could finish his sentence, he fell to the ground, the folding fan in his hand was gently raised upward, and his eyes were full of resentful hatred.
Qu Wurong didn't expect that Shen Liancheng's dog would jump off the wall in a hurry, and he would suddenly kill Shen Jingshi, and it seemed impossible to save him. This Shen Liancheng is the most vicious of the many brothers, on the surface it seems to be a sheep, but in fact it is more ferocious than a wolf. He will definitely talk about the fake emperor next. If you're not mistaken. He will definitely continue the topic of Shen Jingshi just now, expose Wang Xiang's true identity, and then say that he colluded with the eunuchs to murder the emperor, at that time, the evidence was conclusive, and he was speechless.
"King Cheng, how can you do such a poisonous act to your own brother, although his sin is unforgivable, His Majesty has repeatedly let him live. Why can't you just remember brotherhood and let him go again? β
Shen Liancheng pretended to be distressed and said: "Queen Mother, the courtier helped you get rid of this chaotic minister and thief, and you slandered the courtier so much." Do you think I don't have heartache? I grew up with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince since I was a child, and I love each other, if he hadn't threatened him with the emperor's life, how could my brother be a killer. If he is allowed to live another quarter of an hour, and he lets his subordinates poison His Majesty, what will he do then? β
Qu Wurong expected that it was not wrong, Shen Liancheng talked about Shen Wuan. What is the best of now? If Shen Jingshi's people didn't see him go back, they would really kill Shen Wu'an. In this way, Shen Liancheng's conspiracy will be achieved, it is really a poisonous plan to kill three birds with one stone! Now he must not be allowed to expose Wang Xiang's identity, if Wang Xiang's true identity is exposed, it will really be all over. She glanced back at Wang Xiang, who was sitting behind her, and found that his eyes had been looking at Shen Liancheng. Could it be that he is also a spy sent by Shen Liancheng, if they are allowed to cooperate with the outside at this time, it will be a big deal.
"This is the end of today's post-closure ceremony."
She wanted to hurriedly end this terrifying post-closure ceremony, and go back to redeploy the plan to save Shen Wu'an and deal with the possible rebellion launched by Shen Liancheng. Tassel had already told her that the army of the northern camp had been mobilized to the palace.
"Queen Mother, please go slowly, the younger brother still has something unclear. Just now Shen Jingshi said that the emperor was fake, and the younger brother thought that he was telling his tongue, but now the younger brother also felt that it was wrong, if the emperor was real, wouldn't he have come to die today. Shen Jingshi is not stupid enough to do this. Therefore, please stay and verify your true identity, so that we can rest assured. β
A group of courtiers said in unison: "What King Cheng said is reasonable, please ask the queen mother to prove that the current emperor is true." β
Qu Wurong shook his long sleeves and said angrily: "Are you trying to rebel?" dared to doubt the truth of the emperor. Could it be that Hongu's eyes are missighted? My husband hasn't had your turn yet, what's the matter? Come and drive back to the palace. β
Wang Xiang was able to hold the field at first, but Shen Liancheng was so aggressive that he was already so frightened that he had no idea. can only stand behind Qu Wurong and let her give orders. Therefore, the face is very ugly.
Qu Wurong glanced back, and suddenly thought about it. It seems that there is only one way to get past the current danger. She winked at Tassel, who nodded slightly. Qu Wurong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, it was really a wise choice to keep her by his side in the first place.
"Queen Mother, if you don't verify the identity of the emperor today, I'm afraid that the ministers will not be convinced, and the government will be chaotic! Please think twice! At this time, the matter is serious, and it must not be let go lightly! β
Just after Shen Liancheng said this, Wang Xiang fell to the ground with a miserable scream. Qu Wurong was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he hurriedly turned around and hugged Wang Xiang in his arms. The palace was suddenly silent, and as soon as he saw that the emperor suddenly fell ill, no one dared to say anything about verifying his true body. If Shen Wu'an dies today because of this incident, no one will be able to avoid the end of being beheaded.
"If you don't get out of the way of me, the emperor's old illness has relapsed. Tell the Imperial Doctor! β
The tassel opened the way in front, and Qu Wurong followed behind to escort Wang Xiang outside. For a while, none of the people dared to stop them, and no one dared to joke with their heads. Shen Liancheng hasn't reacted yet, what the hell is going on? I had never heard of Shen Wu'an having such a sudden illness. In fact, he was not very sure in his heart that the person in front of him was Wang Xiang, not Shen Wuan. Qu Wurong was too insidious and cunning, so he had to guard against it.
"Quick, go and pass on the Imperial Doctor."
After Qu Wurong escorted Wang Xiang out of Chaoyang Palace, his heart finally let go, and he finally escaped. didn't let Shen Liancheng's conspiracy come true, or the immortal tassel was secretly helping him, and today he would really have no way to return to the sky.
"What about tassels? Was she still ahead? β
Qu Wurong's eyes anxiously searched for her figure around.
