In the dormitory, the incense mist is swirling, and the smell of medicine is strong.

The woman slowly walked to the side of the bed with a bowl of bitter medicine, sighed, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, don't blame. There is a saying in the Central Plains, a husband and wife are a hundred days of grace. I don't want to do this to you unless I have to. ”

Lying on the bed was none other than Zhou Chaozong, the emperor of Guiping Kingdom. He had been in a coma for many days, thanks of course to the daily bowl of medicine in the hands of his queen.

"I know that you have always been in contact with the son of the Central Plains woman, and I don't care about that. But when it comes to Danda, I can't sit idly by. Today, in the court, I will announce the reversal of the previous agreement and the start of war with Daesung. The corners of her lips curled into a smile, revealing a hint of pride: "Even if you oppose it from top to bottom, the guards I brought from Danda only listen to me." Whoever dares to say a word should not want to leave the palace. ”

She confidently poured a bowl of medicine into Zhou Chaozong's mouth, got up and tidied up her appearance, and walked towards the main hall towards the morning sun.

Above the main hall, everyone was afraid, the emperor did not show up for many days, and the queen suddenly ordered the house arrest of the soldiers of the Heavenly Wolf Battalion left by King Dacheng Heng. Has there been any change in the agreement with Dentons that was reached not long ago? They are all speaking out today to reject this dangerous change.

The queen behind the bead curtain said in a low voice: "The prime minister has not yet arrived?" ”

And the people were very puzzled.

"It doesn't matter." She was glad the old fool wasn't there.

"Your Majesty decrees that in order to consolidate the friendship between Guiping and Danta, Danda will be allowed to garrison Guiping at any time."

"No, I hope the queen will allow me to wait to see Your Majesty." The ministers were unanimously opposed.

"Someone ...... coming," she was majestic and didn't want to waste her time. t.

However, her voice fell for a long time, and there was no one in the hall who wanted to see it.

She got up and lifted the curtain, stepped into everyone's sight, and looked out of the temple door in confusion.

And outside the palace gate, there was indeed a wave of people hurrying over, her eyes flowed, showing a smile, but she could look at it again, but the person who walked into the hall was not her own guard, but the old prime minister.

In front of the old prime minister walked a man and a woman. Although the man is polite, he also has a sense of pride; The woman is elegant and extraordinary, and her elegance is unparalleled. Behind the old prime minister are soldiers with swords and mighty soldiers.

The queen had a chill down her spine, and something big must have happened.

Everyone's eyes were drawn to a man and a woman standing in the middle of the hall at the moment, and they were talking about who these two people were.

The old prime minister said calmly: "The queen holds Your Majesty hostage, ignoring the safety of the whole country, and the old minister will not let the queen succeed even if he dies." As he spoke, he beckoned, and the soldiers behind him lifted up a palace maid.

"Say it."

The palace maid was submissive and hesitant, but everyone still understood her narration that did not match her preface and afterword. The point is that the queen fed the emperor drugs that made him delirious and in a long-term coma.

Everyone had this conjecture for a long time, but most of them did not dare to speak out due to the consideration of their own safety. At this time, seeing the old prime minister stand up, he also had more or less courage.

"Do you believe that?" The queen gave her a contemptuous look. "She's not from my palace at all."

The old prime minister did not refute it, it doesn't matter whether this palace maid is a person in the queen's palace or not, the important thing is that this reason is needed.

"If the queen is not satisfied, she will immediately send someone to His Majesty's palace to collect evidence and investigate." The old prime minister is not asking for advice, but giving orders.

"Who dare?" The queen was still domineering.

A chuckle suddenly came to mind in the main hall. Everyone's eyes were locked on the beautiful woman who had been smiling and calm after entering the hall.

"Who is this?" I don't know who came up with such a question.

When the old prime minister heard this, he introduced: "This is Princess Dachengheng, escorting the prince of our country back to China safely." ”

There was an uproar in the hall.

Qingxi looked left and right, and said crisply: "Your country's family affairs, I am inconvenient to participate." His Royal Highness King Heng also wants to send your prince back safely in this wolf smoke and fire, which shows that he attaches great importance to the relationship with your country, of course, I hope that your country will be the same, otherwise it will ......." She stopped at the right time, frowned and shook her head.

"Bold, where did the deceivers come from? What a princess, what a prince, drag me out and cut it! The queen roared.

And the soldiers of the Heavenly Wolf Battalion behind Qingxi were about to draw their swords when they heard the murderous words

Above.

Qingxi raised her eyes to look directly at her sister, and said calmly: "Don't worry, the queen, you can find out what is right and wrong." It's just that it's not so easy to put the soldiers of my Dacheng Heavenly Wolf Camp under house arrest, and it's even more impossible for them to admit their princess. ”

When the soldiers of the Heavenly Wolf Battalion who remained in Guiping discovered the subtle changes in the situation, they had already been dismantled into pieces and hidden in the market, waiting for Dacheng's follow-up orders, and the so-called house arrest was also a smoke bomb released by the queen. After Qingxi entered Guiping last night, they noticed Xie Zhi and the guards of the Zhizhou Mansion, and quickly regrouped through the code.

Qingxi tilted his head: "Gongzi Zhou, also show the tokens in your hands to the ministers." ”

Zhou Yifeng, who had been silent on the side, bowed his head slightly, and took out a jade seal and an edict from his arms.

"This is the jade seal of the emperor of our country," everyone was shocked.

The old prime minister respectfully accepted the edict and displayed it in front of everyone. This edict was written by Zhou Chaozong himself and was written before the war between Danda and Guiping. The main content is that he is worried about the future of peace, and because of his relationship with Kuerle, he retreats to his only son, who has been exiled, and orders him to return to China immediately to inherit the throne.

"You should remember Madame Ru, right?" The old prime minister opened his mouth to remind: "Although Mrs. Ru was forced to leave the palace back then, she was already pregnant at that time, and Your Majesty has kept in touch with the eldest prince through the old ministers over the years. This is my prince who has been leveled! He said and knelt solemnly in front of Zhou Yifeng and bowed deeply.

Although the old prime minister is weak on weekdays, he is also just and does not offend people, serving the kings of the three dynasties, and has his own prestige.

The queen gritted her back molars, trembling with hatred, she never thought that the old prime minister, who was usually timid and afraid, would be so fearless today. I never thought that the benevolence of a thought would be exchanged for today's disaster, and I never thought that Zhou Chaozong would actually send the jade seal and the abdication edict under his nose.

No, she can't admit defeat yet, and Danda still needs to be leveled to provide a garrison. Brother Wang's advance force should soon be able to reach Guiping, and her own guards should be able to withstand it for a while.

Xu saw through her plan, Qingxi looked at the kneeling people in the hall, and said in a deep voice: "I am Princess Dachengheng, since I came in person, in addition to ensuring the safe arrival of the prince of your country, I also want to tell Guiping that you are safe." My husband will not put me in danger, nor will he let Guiping fall into the hands of Danda. As she spoke, she turned to the top of the hall and said with disdain: "The queen may still hope for the guards around you, but I'm sorry, the guards have already been taken over by us. Perhaps you still hope for the army sent by your brother Wang, but if I am not mistaken, this army will not be able to return to peace. ”

The queen was so angry that she pointed to Qingxi and was about to step forward and tear it. Qingxi was flexible and took a step back.

Zhou Yifeng had already taken a step forward and blocked in front of her, and a dagger in his hand appeared in surprise and was steadily inserted into the queen's abdomen.

The queen covered her abdomen with her hands in disbelief and slowly collapsed.

Zhou Yifeng paused for a moment, as if he finally understood what he had done, and then remembered the panic, and suddenly let go of the dagger. With a clang, the dagger fell to the ground, like a thunderclap.

Everyone in the hall gasped. Suddenly, Ler's sister has lost power, which is an ironclad thing, but seeing that the queen who was high in the past and said that she was the same fell on top of the main hall, she couldn't accept it for a while.

The queen was still convulsing, but no one dared to cry out for help.

Qingxi was also shocked in his heart, and instinctively retreated and avoided it. She tilted her head, her eyes lowering slightly. In fact, Zhou Yifeng didn't make a move, she also wanted to solve the queen, but this was also the first time she watched a person's life pass quietly in front of her eyes, her hand hidden in her sleeve was clenched tightly, her breathing was also a little unsteady, she felt that time was difficult, and her heart and blood were congealed.

Suddenly, a shout broke through the strange atmosphere: "Dacheng's Major General Zeng is outside the city gate with two thousand cavalry. ”

Qingxi's eyes lit up, and she was sure that she had won this game.

After Zeng Qidao entered the city, he hurriedly went to the direction of the palace.

When he learned the news that Qingxi had come to Guiping, he was so angry that he wanted to overthrow Xie Mansion. After receiving the order, he led his troops to Guiping, but he didn't even prepare his battle armor, ordered his troops, and rushed to Guiping overnight. Along the way, he kept telling himself that it would be fine, and Qingxi would be safe. He didn't even dare to think about it

I thought, if Qingxi has a good one, what should he do.

After entering the city, he also walked to the palace without stopping. As he approached the palace, he jumped off his horse and ran towards Xie Zhi, who was guarding the gate of the palace. Before Xie Zhi could react, a heavy punch had already knocked him to the ground.

"Xie Badou, you bastard, who gave you the guts to bring her here and into this dire situation?" He was furious and furious, and he was about to get his hands on another punch.

"Brother Zeng!" In the distance, Qingxi's urgent cry was heard.

His raised arm paused in mid-air, and he softened his eyes and looked back, finally seeing her stop in front of him.

"Are you okay? Are there any injuries? Have you been wronged? He forgot the rules of etiquette, and approached her very closely, and asked anxiously.

Qingxi smiled slightly and shook her head slightly. She leaned over and wanted to help Xie Zhi who fell to the ground, but Xie Zhi refused: "Princess Xie, I can." ”

"Brother Zeng, you shot too hard, Lao Xie is listening to my orders." Qingxi knew that he cared about him, but looking at Xie Zhi's slightly swollen right cheek, he still blamed him.

Zeng Qidao looked at Xie Zhi, still angry, and asked reluctantly, "Are you okay?" ”

Xie Zhi shook his head, but he couldn't see that he was dissatisfied with him, but on the contrary, he showed a look of understanding. 、

Zeng Qidao was a little awkward, but re-examined the current situation. Qingxi was followed by the mighty soldiers of the Heavenly Wolf Battalion, and he knew that the Guiping Kingdom had been completely incorporated into Dacheng's battle line. He cleared his throat before he said, "Your Highness said that Dacheng will send troops to solve Danda in the next two days." ”

Qingxi bowed his head, was silent for a while, and asked softly, "Did he say anything else?" Angry? ”

Zeng Qidao was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer.
