Chapter 154: The Assassin
Situ Jing and several other princes and ministers were waiting outside the emperor's dormitory to be summoned, and the emperor was now only guarded by his personal eunuchs and palace maids, waiting to deliver medicine and wash at any time.
At this time, the Praetorian Guard soldiers walked up to Situ and whispered a few words to him, and Situ Jing followed him out.
As soon as he walked outside, he saw Chu Yuan in a hurry, and when he saw Situ Jing coming out, he hurriedly ran over and said, "Someone from Mingjian Villa is going to pick up the two little princes." ”
Situ Jing frowned after hearing this, but after thinking about it, this must have been arranged by Mu Yunqi, and now that Yu Chi Zhan is already the owner of the Famous Sword Villa, it should be no problem to help Mu Yunqi with this little favor.
"Wei Chi Zhan Ke is here?" Situ Jing asked.
"Here, he brought people personally."
"Then let him take it away, go to Siyun Pavilion and send a few reliable people to follow."
Chu Yuan was ordered to go back and make arrangements.
Situ Jing didn't rush back when he saw him go away, but looked up at the dark and oppressive sky, and muttered: "Father, it's really going to change the sky, you go all the way." ”
After speaking, he looked at the palace gate again, Chu Yuan was already gone, Ming'er, Yu'er, you can go, I and your mother can start a war without worry.
Situ Jing's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he turned around and flicked his robe and walked inward, Father, the battle has really begun, and we will each have our own ability to kill the deer.
Mu Yunqi saw that all the maids and eunuchs had gone down, and the door was also closed, leaving only this grieving mother in the entire hall.
This woman is in pain? How much pain this woman would have had for her grandmother when she killed her father with her son, how much pain her husband would have suffered when she was trapped in a dry well, and the pain of this woman was too light for their family, and she had to add some fodder to make her even more painful.
Thinking of this, Mu Yunqi quietly walked out of the shadows and forced the short sword under the queen mother's neck.
The Queen Mother felt a chill in her neck, looked up and saw a sword on her neck, but the voice that instinctively wanted to call for help stopped, she knew that if she hurried to call someone, she might die.
She asked tremblingly, "Woman, is there something wrong?" ”
"Something, of course there's something, or who would risk losing their heads to intimidate the Queen Mother."
"If the heroine has something, please say it, and the mourner who can do it must do it."
"Sorry for your life, your son is dying, why don't you want to die with him?" Mu Yunqi asked faintly, the voice echoing in the hall in a low voice, like a ghost's voice.
"Who are you? What do you want to do? The Queen Mother's originally calm tone became frightened when she heard her voice.
"I am the messenger of the Netherworld, and I have come to take you away." The voice was dark but sneering.
"The messenger of the netherworld, no, you are not, you are Liu Tianyuan, you are the slut that Mu Zhiyuan has in mind." The Queen Mother was so frightened that she was about to cry.
"Liu Tianwei is also called by you, called Concubine Zhuang, or cut your throat with a sword." Mu Yunqi listened to her cursing her grandmother, and he wanted to kill her immediately.
"Concubine Zhuang? When did His Majesty like her, but she was just a hostage sent by a defeated country, that is, Mu Zhiyuan, that old thing, could never forget her, but she died a clean death. ”
"When did she die?" Mu Yunqi felt that there was a story in it.
"She died when the mourning family entered the palace."
Mu Yunqi sent the sword in a few more points, the Queen Mother obviously felt a trace of pain, and glared at her, but Mu Yunqi said angrily: "To be honest." ”
Seeing that she really dared to make a move, the Queen Mother said: "She was replaced by me from the palace and married Mu Zhiyuan, and she died when I heard that her son died." ”
Mu Yunqi said angrily: "Your son is also going to die, why don't you die." ”
The queen mother actually sneered: "What, you hate me? I still hate you, why can you get Mu Zhiyuan's love, I gave birth to a son for him, but he never had a trace of warmth for me, some just used, just used. ”
"Situ Minying is really Mu Zhiyuan's son, the child born in a whole month escaped His Majesty's suspicion, you and Mu Zhiyuan are really brave."
The Queen Mother knew that she had said nothing, but she didn't want everyone in front of her to know, it seemed that she was really Liu Tianwei, "No, I was forced, I had no choice, only then would he be willing to look at me." ”
"Then why did you and your son kill Mu Huaming, Hua Ruxue and Yun Xiangrong, just because they knew that Situ Minying was Mu Zhiyuan's son?"
"Yes, back then, Min Ying was so optimistic about Mu Huaming and invited him to become an official, but Mu Huaming just didn't know what to do, once the two of them were drunk Min Ying said that he and Yun Xiangrong heard it, in order to hide it, we arranged for Concubine Jiang who had just entered the palace to kill them, Concubine Jiang really had the ability, and she actually made it like the plague, so that the rest of the matter will be much smoother."
"It's really a pity that you and Mu Zhiyuan's ugly thing needs so many lives to hide." As he spoke, the sword was sent a few more points, and there was already blood flowing down.
The Queen Mother asked anxiously: "What do you want, I can give you whatever you want, as long as you don't hurt me." ”
"Give me your chrysanthemum hairpin."
"Okay, okay, I'll give it to you." After speaking, he opened the jewelry box and pressed a mechanism, only to see a brocade box under the dresser, and the queen mother was just about to open the brocade box to show Mu Yunqi.
Mu Yunqi hurriedly stopped her, but the Queen Mother was already desperate, and after opening the brocade box, several silver needles flew towards Mu Yunqi in an instant.
Fortunately, Mu Yunqi was on guard, and a few rolled to avoid the silver needle, and the Queen Mother also broke away from the clamp and ran to the side, trying to make a detour to the palace gate.
It's just that her skills are one ten-thousandth of Mu Yunqi's, and before she can run to the door, a sword is under her neck. The Queen Mother finally stopped escaping, and was dragged back to the place just now by Mu Yunqi, and motioned for her to take out the chrysanthemum hairpin.
The Queen Mother had no choice but to open the brocade box, close the mechanism with her own hands, take out the hairpin, and hand it to Mu Yunqi. Mu Yunqi did not take it with his bare hands, but inserted the hairpin into his waist through his clothes.
Seeing her so rude, the Queen Mother said angrily: "That's a symbol of the royal family, how can it be so casual." ”
"I have this thing, do you want it? I can give you four more to play with. ”
"What? You've got four, this is the fifth, and you've got the supreme position? ”
Mu Yunqi sneered through the veil: "Yo, the Queen Mother also understands?" ”
"The mourning family naturally understands that Emperor Taizu left this covenant so that there would be someone who could turn the tide in troubled times, is it ......?"
"The troubled times are coming, they are all caused by you and Mu Zhiyuan, Situ Minying killed all the Situ clans, and eventually the Situ clan will avenge this."
The Queen Mother opened her eyes wide in horror and said, "How can there be troubled times today? ”
"Your son has not been appointed as a prince until his death, and you say that among your grandsons will be emperors? Situ Jing, by the way, he is Mu Zhiyuan's puppet, Mu Zhiyuan raised him to the throne to return the world to the Mu family, and then you will be the demon queen of the country that has been stinking for thousands of years. ”
"No, no, I'm helpless, I'm forced." The Queen Mother really doesn't want to make her unbearable history public.
"Then you support Situ Ji and work against Mu Zhiyuan, after Situ Ji takes the throne, you can find an excuse to get rid of Mu Zhiyuan, only in this way can you keep your dirty past, right?"
The Queen Mother turned her head to look at her and asked, "Who are you?" Why do you know so much, you say you are Situ, who are you? ”
The Queen Mother seemed to have some magic obstacles, squatted down and grabbed her hair, and said with words: "The Situ clan is dead, King Ning is dead, King Qi is dead, Prince Su is also dead, Prince Duan is also dead, all dead, who are you?" ”
Watching her count, Mu Yunqi found that she didn't seem to know that her father Mu Huaming was Ren Zong's son, and it seemed that Mu Zhiyuan was still hiding deeply.
Mu Yunqi got what he wanted, and he said that he should have dialed, and was about to leave, when he heard the people in the palace outside shouting: "Your Majesty has returned to heaven!" ”
Mu Yun was startled, looked back at the palace door, the door opened, and the maid ran in and knelt down and cried: "Queen Mother, Your Majesty has returned to heaven." ”
The Queen Mother finally raised her head, and only then did she think of the sword on her neck, but where was the shadow of the sword, and where was the woman just now, she said angrily: "There are assassins, search for the mourning family." ”
