Chapter 171: Blood Splattered Xianyang City
Zhong Lichun's eyes were quick, and he reached out to catch it.
The voice of the waiter immediately sounded outside the door: "King, what happened, do you want the servants to come in and wait?" ”
King Qin Huai's face sank, "It's okay, it's the lonely king who accidentally touched the teacup, let's come in tomorrow and clean it up!" After speaking, he motioned to Concubine Zhou Shufei and the others not to speak. Shove the pillow into the quilt. turned around and followed Zhou Shufei into the secret passage. closed the slate, and then asked hurriedly: "Aifei, hurry up and make it clear, what's wrong with Ming'er." ”
Concubine Zhou Shu's voice choked, "King, our Ming'er died violently in the palace yesterday, please check it out." ”
"What? Ming'er died violently. Why didn't anyone play to the lonely king today, are you mistaken, concubine. ”
Qin Wenzheng hurriedly stepped forward, "Erchen saw his father, and Erchen got the news that the second royal brother died in bed in the early hours of yesterday morning, this matter is true, and everyone knows it." ”
King Qin Huai saw Qin Wenzheng's solemn face, knowing that this matter was true, he couldn't help but take a few steps back in shock, leaned against the wall and covered his chest, panting heavily.
"Father, king, are you alright?" Qin Wenzheng and Concubine Zhou Shuzheng both stepped forward to help King Qin Huai and asked in unison.
King Qin Huai waved his hand, his face full of sadness, "I didn't expect that my decision would kill Ming'er, it must be a traitor in the palace that will cause Ming'er to be poisoned and die." That's it, now it seems that my decision is right, the Qin State must not be handed over to such a king, Zheng'er, help me up, and I will immediately write an edict to pass on the position of crown prince to you. and ordered you to find a way to get rid of the queen's family and inherit the throne. ”
Zhong Lichun looked at King Qin Huai, who was old in an instant, and his heart was gloomy, this is the dispute over royal power, and it is the hearts of parents who are hurt in the end.
Qin Wenzheng walked back to the tunnel with two holy decrees and kowtowed to Concubine Zhou Shu, "Thank you Aunt Shufei for your success, if I can successfully ascend the throne, I will ensure the safety of my aunt's family, and I will treat my aunt as the eldest queen, and respect me as if I were my own child." ”
Concubine Zhou Shufei sighed, "Ming'er is dead, I can only rely on you, I hope you can achieve great things, don't let us down, get out of the palace quickly!" It was dawning soon. I'll stay here and spend more time with your father. ”
"Who! Erchen retired first! Auntie, take care. Qin Wenzheng held the edict, exited the secret passage, and Jun Mowen quietly slipped out of the palace and sneaked back to the palace.
Qin Wenzheng kept Jun Mowen and Zhong Lichun to live in the palace, Jun Mowen pondered for a while, and then ordered Shi Cheng and Bai Sha to go out to inquire about the news. If there's anything going on, report it right away. The two of them stayed in the palace. and ordered Shi Cheng to quietly send Concubine Zhou's blood book to Taiwei Zhou's mansion.
Shi Cheng was ordered to sneak into the Taiwei Mansion and hand over the blood book to Zhou Taiwei, who had already received the news of Qin Wenming's violent death, and after receiving the blood letter, he immediately replied to the letter, expressing his willingness to do his best to assist Qin Wenzheng to ascend the throne.
After Qin Wenzheng received the letter, he was extremely happy. He and Jun Mo asked the two to discuss how to do it. It was decided to start three days later on the day of Qin Wenming's funeral. Let's lure the snake out of the hole and lead Qin Wenguang to the Ming Palace.
Three days later, Qin Wenzheng rushed out of the palace with Jun Mowen and the two of them, killed all the guards around the palace, and came directly to the Ming Palace.
When Qin Wenguang heard that Qin Wenzheng actually dared to break out of the mansion by force, he immediately went straight to the Ming Palace's mansion with a thousand elite guards.
Zhou Taiwei took advantage of this opportunity to quietly order, waiting outside the city, and ordered the 50,000 Praetorian Guards to seize the surrounding city gates with lightning speed and control the safety of the entire capital. and quickly led people to surround the uncle's mansion, rushed into the mansion, and killed more than 300 people in the whole mansion, leaving no one behind. In short, on this day in Xianyang City, the crying and shouting shook the sky, the blood flowed like a river, and several ministers of the same party as the national uncle were also wiped out by the Praetorian Guard.
Qin Wenguang, who was in the Ming Palace, still didn't know that he was already in danger, and he was still loudly accusing Qin Wenzheng of resisting and disobeying the order, leaving the mansion without permission, and killing the Jingji guards and other major crimes, and ordered the guards to step forward and kill Qin Wenzheng. and made a slashing gesture at the lead guard.
The leading guard immediately understood, and drew out his long sword and stabbed at Qin Wenzheng with lightning speed, pointing directly at the vital point in his heart.
Jun Mo asked his body like electricity, the long sword shot out, and the long sword of the guard, the two fought together, Zhong Lichun looked at it, and couldn't help but feel strange, how could this person know the Mo family's swordsmanship, who is this person? Jun Mo also found a problem, and shouted: "Who are you, why do you know the Mo family's swordsmanship?" ”
The leading guard was stunned, "Are you from the Mo family?" ”
Jun Mo asked instead of answering, "Who are you?" ”
The guard was furious, "A few old people of the Mo family are immortal, besieging one of my father, and they also used despicable means to kill my father, today I will kill one of the Mo family members to vent their anger." ”
Jun Mo suddenly understood, and sneered, "You are Mei Xiaotian's son." ”
Mei Ji sneered, "So what? ”
"No, come here." When Jun Mo heard that he was Mei Xiaotian's son, he suddenly remembered that Zhong Lichun's suffering was all due to Mei Xiaotian. The sword light is Huo Huo, and he will not be merciful in his attack, and his moves will be fatal. The two are inseparable.
Zhong Lichun saw that Jun Mo was not in danger for the time being, turned around and walked like the wind, waved his soft sword, slashed the guards who stepped forward, rushed all the way to Qin Wenguang's side, clasped his left hand, grabbed his wrist, put the Shui Yue Sword on his neck, and shouted: "Tell them all to lay down their weapons, otherwise I will cut off your head." ”
Qin Wenguang didn't expect a white-haired old woman to be so powerful, she felt a coldness on her neck, and there was a burst of pain, and she suddenly shouted in fright: "Quick, put down your weapons and surrender, quickly!" ”
The guards of the capital machine looked at each other, the leader was stalked endlessly, and the eldest prince was abducted again, and he couldn't help but drop his weapons one after another.
Zhong Lichun smiled slightly, twisted his left hand slightly, Qin Wenguang screamed in pain, his face turned pale with pain while holding his arm, and cold sweat broke out on his head. Zhong Lichun pushed him to Qin Wenzheng. Turning around and impulsively entanglement circle, as soon as Zhong Lichun joined, the two people who were originally on par suddenly changed the situation.
Mei Jiji faced the two young masters, how to resist it, it only took a moment, he couldn't parry, he made a false move, and turned around to escape.
"Where to go?" Zhong Lichun and Jun Mo asked how they could leave another trouble for themselves, and the two of them followed him like a shadow, trapping him, enveloping him in layers of sword qi, and he could no longer get out. With a terrible shout, Mei Jiji was pierced through the chest by Zhong Lichun's sword, pierced through the heart, and slowly fell to the ground, unwillingly opening her eyes.
Jun Mo asked the sword to shake and cut his throat, but he was sure that he could not die anymore before he put the sword back into its sheath. The two looked at each other and smiled, unexpectedly having an unexpected gain in Xianyang. The stone in his heart was finally put down, Mei Xiaotian's father and son were dead, and he could finally sleep in peace.
Qin Wenzheng took Qin Wenguang to kneel in front of Qin Wenming's spirit and ordered him to kowtow to Qin Wenming to apologize, Qin Wenguang looked at the sword that was braving the cold light, and had to kneel in front of the spirit and kowtow to apologize. Qin Wenzheng instructed the spirit to send the coffin to the mausoleum.
He personally escorted Qin Wenguang to the prison and waited for his father to dispose of it. He and Taiwei Zhou led the Praetorian Guards into the palace, wiped out the remnants of the queen, and replaced all the palace guards with their own people.
King Huai of Qin issued a decree to establish Qin Wenzheng as the prince, demoted Qin Wenguang to a concubine, and exiled him to the borderlands.
Jun Mowen and Zhong Lichun looked at the overall situation of the Qin State and got up to say goodbye to Qin Wenzheng. The group hurried back to the Chu State, and Jun Mowen instructed Shi Cheng to send the Danfang to the Linglong Mountain of the Qi State and hand it over to Xulingzi.
Xu Lingzi took the pill and turned it out to take a look, his eyes lit up, but when he finished reading the last two flavors, his brows tightened. The East China Sea Golden Silk Snow Bird's Nest, the Tianshan Millennium Snow Lotus, and the West Sea Centennial Soul Rejuvenation Grass. These three herbs are all rare medicinal materials, and the thousand-year-old snow lotus brought back one by Zhong Lichun last time, and it has all been used up, but since the girl was able to get one last time, she must be able to get another one.
It's just that this East China Sea golden silk blood bird's nest is not easy to find, and the species of snow swallows are scarce, and they all inhabit the cliffs by the sea. But it's very dangerous and very hard to find. The West Sea Soul Rejuvenation Grass grows in the vast sand sea, this grass will never die, when there is drought and no rain, the whole grass rolls into a ball and floats, once there is rain moisture, it immediately takes root and sprouts, so it grows repeatedly, so it is called the Soul Rejuvenation Grass.
Xulingzi told Shi Cheng the place where the three flavors of medicine grew and the approximate shape, and asked him to go back and report to Jun Moqing, and asked him to send someone to find it.
Shi Cheng didn't dare to slack off after hearing this, and hurriedly hit his horse back to Chu State and asked Jun Mo for a detailed explanation of the situation.
Jun Mo asked, his brows furrowed, he didn't expect that there was no such three-flavor medicine in the Void Lingzi. So he repaired the book and ordered Shi Cheng to send it to Yan Kingdom and hand it to Murong Yan, asking him not to help get another thousand-year-old snow lotus. As for the East China Sea Snow Bird's Nest and the West Sea Soul Rejuvenation Grass, I can only find it myself.
Jun Mowen was busy day and night, and after dealing with the remaining government affairs, he looked at the weather and knew that it was cold now, and it was the time when the snow swallows were feeding the bird's nest in the nest, and this season was the best time to find bird's nests. Jun Mowen decided to leave, Zhang Shaoqing said worriedly: "Your Majesty, you have been out repeatedly, you have not been in the court for a long time, some time ago it was reported that Zhao Guo was secretly mobilizing troops and horses, and was ready to move, if the emperor went out again, I am afraid it will cause turmoil on the border and continuous wars." ”
"I have already decided, as long as I find the Snow Bird's Nest and the Soul Rejuvenation Grass, Yao Lao will refine the Huiyan Pill and let Shuang'er recover her appearance, and then she will no longer run around. This is my wish, and you don't want her to live in the palace like this! ”
Zhang Shaoqing was silent, "Then will you go out with your sister-in-law this time?" ”
"Well, she didn't come with her last time, so it's better to wait for her to find her, so it's better to go with you now. So be it! You still take Li Qiusheng over and let him be the emperor for me for a few days, so that the officials will not have objections. ”
Zhang Shaoqing nodded helplessly and ordered Shi Zhong to go to Meige to quietly bring Li Qiusheng to the Jun's Mansion.
Jun Mowen came to the inner courtyard of the Jun Mansion and saw Zhong Lichun practicing swords with Bai Sha. And I didn't bother them, just stood aside and watched silently.
Zhong Lichun found out that he was coming, put away his sword, and said with a smile: "Jun Mo asked, why are you so early today!" ”
Jun Mowen took out Jinpa and wiped the fine sweat on her face, "Shuang'er's swordsmanship has become more and more powerful, and her internal strength has almost recovered." Looks like you're almost in good shape. ”
"Well, it's almost recovered, Jun Mo asked, come over so early today, is there something wrong?"
