Chapter 704: Mingzhu dies
After a dinner, as the night deepened, Xiao Jinxuan and the others couldn't help but rest.
On the originally quiet night, I don't know when the snowflakes fell again, and in the scattered snow all over the ground, I saw a slender black shadow, walking one foot deep and one foot shallow.
And this black shadow leaned all the way to Xiao Fengxi's courtyard, and finally jumped over the wall, and then walked quietly to the study with great familiarity with the terrain.
Everything seemed to be going well, and when the slender black shadow entered the study without hindrance, she immediately looked around in front of the bookcase in the room, obviously looking for something.
And half a pillar of incense passed, when the black shadow took a palm-sized thing the size of a palm, wrapped in crimson cloud brocade, in a gap in the bookshelf.
This slender black shadow even covered its mouth excitedly and smiled very proudly, then turned around and quickly withdrew outside the study.
But as soon as the dark shadow pushed the door open, countless torches lit up outside the study in an instant, and even the night was almost as bright as day.
And surrounded by countless torches, Xiao Fengxi, Xiao Jinxuan, and the cousins Yun Yan Yunhao, who were originally resting after the night banquet, were all standing outside the study.
As for the black shadow that could walk, it was also invisible under the lights, Xiao Mingzhu's frightened look on his face, and the act of putting his hands behind his back in an instant, were all clearly reflected.
Seeing that as the owner of the eldest princess's mansion, Xiao Fengxi, who was also the oldest in the audience, looked at Xiao Mingzhu and said:
"The pearl has come to this point, you don't need to hide it. The Luanfeng Great Seal in your hand can't mobilize the 400,000 troops of the Zhen** Regiment at all, because it is simply fake. And you want to steal the print, not long after the end of the night banquet, Jinxuan has already told me. That's why you can sneak into my compound so easily tonight because I deliberately removed the secret guards. Mingzhu, you are really confused, you actually helped the Hou Mansion to kill my mother, you are so disappointing. β
was blocked alive in front of the door of the study, Xiao Mingzhu knew that no matter how she explained, it would be difficult to hide the past.
So the extreme fear is not so nervous as the dust settles.
But when Xiao Mingzhu heard about her today, she was defeated in the hands of Xiao Jinxuan again. Angry, she shouted even more in disbelief:
"This is impossible, as soon as Fang Yu died, I ran out of the mansion, and when I had nothing to rely on, I thought of Mingyuan and went to the Marquis of Anding's Mansion. I was just too depressed in my heart, so I told Ming Mingyuan everything. I originally thought that he, the fiancΓ©, would shelter me, but he immediately disliked me and told his father Ding'an to wait for Yao Hua. β
Speaking of this, tears fell from Xiao Mingzhu's eyes, and she continued crying:
"This Yao Hua said that he would publish the truth to the public, and would never ask his son to marry the daughter born to me, a handmaid. Immediately afterwards, he also told me that if you want to hold the position of the county lord, even more noble than now, as long as you master the Luanfeng Great Seal, you can control the 400,000 troops of the town ** regiment in your hands. At that time, even everyone in the Eldest Princess's Mansion will have to bow down to me. These things were all talked to me about in the secret room during the day. So Xiao Jinxuan, how could you possibly know, and wait here to arrest me in advance. Do you still know the prophet, and if you can pinch it, you will not be able to count it? β
Even though her deeds have been revealed, Xiao Mingzhu still doesn't want to admit that Xiao Jinxuan is stronger than her, which will make her feel jealous and unacceptable.
When Xiao Jinxuan heard this, she smiled calmly and gently, and then said in a cold voice:
"Not only do I know that you will come to steal my mother's Luanfeng Great Seal, but I also know that Yao Hua promised you that if he raises an army to rebel, you will not only become the little marquis's wife. As long as the other party ascends the throne and becomes the emperor, Yao Mingyuan, the only seedling, will be the same as the crown prince, and you will also be equivalent to the crown princess, and you will even become the queen mother in the future. Therefore, you don't have to say that Yao Hua coerced you, but in fact, the two of you are just meeting the conditions. It's just that now Xiao Mingzhu has obtained all the stolen goods, and as for the emperor dream of Ding'anhou, it will eventually come to naught. β
This person will think about dying and struggling when he is dying, and Xiao Mingzhu is naturally no exception.
She didn't know that supporting Ding'an Hou's rebellion was a big crime of killing her head.
Therefore, seeing that the matter was revealed, her words just now did reveal a sense of being coerced and coerced by the other party.
It's just Xiao Jinxuan's words, but they completely cut off Xiao Mingzhu's last retreat.
Especially when I heard that Xiao Jinxuan even said the things that Yao Hua promised at the beginning.
While Xiao Mingzhu's eyes were round, he was even louder and immediately complained, and he didn't agree to live or die.
Sometimes, however, the evidence is so strong that even if he denies it, it won't help.
Seeing that Xiao Jinxuan waved her hand directly, she ordered someone to take Xiao Mingzhu down, and then she took out a brocade with words written on it from her arms, and said with a chuckle:
"Yao Hua's plan today is to ask you to come back and steal the Great Seal, and Xiao Mingzhu, you are afraid of Brother Yunyan, so you must ask the other party to help you transfer someone away. But do you know why Brother Wang didn't hear from the Yao family sisters in the mansion all night. That's because Yao Biyu has long been my person, and now Yao Nianwan of the Three Princes' Mansion may have taken it down. And the reason why I even know about the secret conversation between you and Yao Hua is because Yao Hua told these things to the Yao sisters after you left, these two daughters who have been entrusted with important tasks. And do you know that Yao Hua is just using you, as soon as the big seal is in hand, he will be the first to kill you. Believe it or not, see for yourself. β
Looking at Xiao Mingzhu, who was forcibly pressed and kneeling in front of him, the Jinpa in Xiao Jinxuan's hand was thrown directly on the other party's face.
Today's Xiao Mingzhu is no different from a dead person in Xiao Jinxuan's eyes, but the other party's stupidity and daydreaming still made her shake her head ridiculously.
And Xiao Yunhao, who also knew all the truth on the side, looked at Xiao Mingzhu and looked at the words on Jinpa, and showed a desperate face.
Immediately, he couldn't help but snort coldly, and even pulled out his saber and pointed it at Xiao Mingzhu.
"You ungrateful dog, your biological mother Fang Yu betrayed my mother and left my eldest sister wandering outside for sixteen years. Now you are also a white-eyed wolf who can't be raised, I admit that we have always been at odds with each other, but Xiao Mingzhu, you ask yourself, what is my mother sorry for you over the years. Even though she knows your background now, she still keeps you in the house and asks you to continue to be the lord of Baohua, but you are still not satisfied, and you still want to rebel and become the queen. I'm going to kill you now, a thief, you don't know how to be grateful."
As soon as Xiao Yunhao finished speaking, he raised his sword and stabbed, but he didn't want to be stopped by Xiao Yunyan on the side.
"Cousin, don't be impulsive, this Xiao Mingzhu really deserves to die, and Brother Wang assures you that she will never be alive this life. But now is not the time to kill, and it is convenient to identify the crime of Yao Hua's old fox by saving her life. So let's detain her first, and when the matter of the Ding'an Hou Mansion is over this time, I will send her on the road with those chaotic ministers and thieves.
Xiao Yunyan is the prince of Beirong, the future emperor, so his attitude on this matter is that Xiao Fengxi will respect a little.
And what he said was reasonable, although Xiao Yunhao was quite angry, but in the end he was unwilling to slowly retract the sword into the sheath.
But just when everyone's attention was focused on Xiao Yunyan, wondering what the third prince planned next.
Paralyzed on the ground, Xiao Mingzhu, who knew that her death was coming, although she resented everyone, she hated nothing more than Xiao Jinxuan.
After all, in Xiao Mingzhu's opinion, if it weren't for the other party's return, how could her identity be questioned.
Xiao Jinxuan is her fateful nemesis, so only when the other party dies can she end this grievance.
Therefore, under the stimulation of this jealousy, Xiao Mingzhu didn't know where to get the strength, not only stood up from the ground at once, but also took out a dagger from his arms and stabbed it towards Xiao Jinxuan's heart.
Her sudden move made it too late for the guards next to her to stop her, and Xiao Jinxuan, who didn't know the slightest martial arts, was about to be in danger.
Xiao Yunhao, who was standing next to her, couldn't care about Xiao Yunyan's warning, and almost subconsciously took out the sword that had only received half of it, and pulled it out again in a flash of cold light.
And after blocking the fatal blow for Xiao Jinxuan, the sword body was picked back, and the sword completely penetrated Xiao Mingzhu's abdomen.
Blood dripped from Xiao Mingzhu's mouth onto Xiao Yunhao's sword, and no one thought that this pair of sisters and brothers who had been fighting each other since childhood would eventually evolve into a killing ending.
And Xiao Yunhao killed Xiao Mingzhu under the sword in order to protect his sister, which is indeed not at fault.
As for Xiao Mingzhu, who was pierced through her abdomen, although she was difficult to live, she couldn't die for a while.
And her counterattack against Xiao Jinxuan not only made Xiao Yunhao sword at him, but also completely angered Xiao Fengxi.
"Come on, give this princess Xiao Mingzhu, a chaotic minister and thief, and immediately hang it above the gate of the imperial capital. I want to show all the rebellious people that dare to peep into my Beirong country and vainly try to hurt the consequences of my Xiao family's royal family, there is only one way to choose. The Baili family was like this back then, and now Ding'an Hou will also end in a fiasco. Even if you have the courage to make a mess, you have to ask me if Xiao Fengxi's 400,000 town ** regiment in his hand agrees! β
As Xiao Fengxi commanded the words with great momentum in the overall situation, Xiao Mingzhu, who was not fatally injured, but was bound to bleed to death in the end, was dragged down.
And not long after, Xiao Mingzhu was pierced on the city gate without breathing.
And with the town ** regiment entering the city to escort and kill the rebellious ministers.
Every soldier could still hear Xiao Mingzhu's painful wail when they passed through the city gate, until the other party's breath was completely weakened, and while the last drop of blood was drained, he died of pain.
And this rebellion in the Ding'an Hou Mansion, just like Xiao Mingzhu's death, is destined to be suppressed by the Zhen** regiment, and it is difficult to set off any storms.
Waiting for these rebellious ministers and thieves, there is only one desperate way to be punished.
