Chapter 806: A Conversation Between Emperors and Empresses
In fact, this is also a common problem of most women, no matter how shrewd they usually are, no matter how generous and gentle they are, but once it comes to children, women's shrewdness will be blinded by family affection, and generosity and gentleness will be gone.
And Wang Junlin's murderous reputation is too great, since she knows that Wang Junlin wants to kill her son, even if her son is a prince, no matter how many masters she sends to protect her, Queen Xiao is not at ease, so in order to protect her son, she can't wait for a moment, and immediately arranges such a thrilling but cautious assassination plan.
In order to ensure a certain killing, Empress Xiao even used all her henchmen in the palace, and also asked the henchman old eunuch to take the initiative to contact an ancient killer organization that had been connected with the royal families of various countries during the Northern and Southern Dynasties as quickly as possible, and hired a killer who was said to be very powerful to kill Wang Junlin at a high price of 10,000 taels of gold. In addition, the ambush location was deliberately placed in a corner of the palace, so that it was difficult for any of Wang Junlin's subordinates to support, no matter how you look at it, Wang Junlin will definitely die this time, but Wang Junlin's murderous reputation is too great, Yang Su and Gao Ying are both top powerful people in the world, it is said that they tried their best to kill Wang Junlin, but in the end, they did not succeed, but they were killed by Wang Junlin. So Empress Xiao is still a little worried.
The palace or the imperial city is a city within a city, no less than a county town in length and width, and Empress Xiao deliberately chose the place to kill Wang Junlin in a remote corner far away from the palace where Yang Guang rested at this time, so Yang Guang didn't know about the big battle that took place in a corner of the palace at all, and the others in the palace only knew that there was a thief who had the audacity to enter the palace, intending to mistreat Wang Shufei, and the palace guards were arresting the thief, and no one knew that it was the famous Prince of Qin'an.
At this time, the old eunuch who had led people to ambush Wang Junlin came, he was a confidant eunuch brought by Emperor Xiao Palace from his mother country, but his face was extremely ugly at this time, and he knelt directly in front of Queen Xiao when he came in, and said with a ashamed face: "Niangniang, the old slave should die, let that Wang Junlin escape from the palace." ”
Empress Xiao's expression suddenly became gloomy, but she was able to become the queen, so that Yang Guang was favored by her, and the mental city was by no means comparable to ordinary people, although she was extremely angry in her heart, and she was extremely annoyed by the uselessness of the people below, but she did not blame, but took a deep breath and said calmly: "How about our casualties?" Is King's Landing injured? ”
"Back to Niangniang, we have 27 dead and wounded, Wang Junlin...... Suffering internal injuries, Wang Junlin was bound to die, but at the critical moment, he was forced to retreat the peerless killer invited by the old slave with the magic of arrows, and poisoned several people with strange snakes, and escaped with a hook. "The old eunuch is also very aggrieved, this plan is for Queen Xiao to provide the general direction, specifically he perfected and planned, he was originally the secret probe of Emperor Xiao Yue of Xiliang Xiaoming, after the death of Xiliang, he has been following the princess, that is, Queen Xiao, originally planned to die in this plan, who knew that there are iron arrows in the world that can shoot into the depths of the palace from outside the palace, the speed of the iron arrow is shocking, and it is so far away, it is so accurate, and the little golden snake, It is beyond the scope of ordinary people's comprehension. Whether it's a magic arrow or a strange snake, it's already a miraculous thing.
Empress Xiao's brows furrowed tightly, even she was quite jealous of Wang Junlin, and now that she was tearing her face, she was also a little worried in her heart, especially worried that Wang Junlin would be desperate to harm his son Yang Yun. And at present, the only one who can protect their mother and son, and even help their mother and son kill Wang Junlin, is Emperor Yang Guang. The thought flashed in her mind, and Empress Xiao sighed and said, "Okay, I know, from now on, you will personally bring enough masters, and you must protect King Qi." ”
The old eunuch hesitated for a moment and said, "Niangniang, then your safety ......"
Empress Xiao interrupted the old eunuch's words and said undoubtedly: "You don't have to worry about the safety of this palace, although Wang Junlin is fierce, he will not dare to be presumptuous in the palace." ”
"The old slave obeys." The old eunuch did not dare to disobey the queen's wishes, so he had to agree.
After the old eunuch retired, Empress Xiao said to the henchman next to her: "Go and see, has Your Majesty woken up?" ”
The palace maid agreed, and after leaving, Empress Xiao began to sort out her language in her heart, she knew that it would be difficult to hide today's affairs from Yang Guang, after all, Yang Guang learned the lessons of the emperor and had great control over the palace, and now because he was resting, after waking up, someone would inevitably tell Yang Guang about the so-called inner guards chasing and killing the thief just now, so she planned to take the initiative to tell Yang Guang about this matter at the first time, and she didn't want to think that the so-called Wang Junlin intended to be unfavorable to Wang Shufei and treat it as a thief. Because she knew the truth and couldn't hide it from Yang Guang. Of course, how you say it, what kind of expression or how you perform it in this process is very important.
The palace maid came to report that the emperor had woken up, Empress Xiao calculated the time, there was still half an hour to have a banquet, and there was still time to talk about it, so she hurried to see Yang Guang.
As soon as she entered the door, Empress Xiao knelt in front of Yang Guang, burst into tears, and said with a heartache: "Your Majesty, the concubine has something to tell Your Majesty." ”
Yang Guang has always been very fond of Empress Xiao, and he has never seen Empress Xiao cry so sadly, and he suddenly felt extremely heartbroken, so he quickly got up to help Empress Xiao, and said: "Queen, what's wrong with you, today is your birthday, whoever provokes you so sad, I will definitely not spare him." ”
Seeing Yang Guang's reaction, Empress Xiao was relieved, but she couldn't hold on, and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine is guilty, and the concubine sent someone to kill one of Your Majesty's courtiers without telling Your Majesty." ”
Yang Guang was stunned for a moment, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, but when he saw Queen Xiao's expression, his heart softened again, and said: "Who does the queen want to kill, why don't you tell me, I and the queen love each other, and the love is deeper than the sea, if I have a courtier who makes the queen angry and sad, I will give you justice." ”
Empress Xiao was immediately moved to cry and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine got the news that the prince of Qin An provoked the relationship between Zhao'er and Xuan'er, wanting to make their brothers turn against each other, and set up a poisonous plan to kill Xuan'er, the concubine knew that Wang Junlin had great powers, and her mind was vicious, and she was worried about the safety of Xuan'er, so she sent someone to recruit Wang Junlin to the harem......"
When Yang Guang heard this, his face suddenly changed, and at this time, without waiting for Empress Xiao to finish speaking, he quickly interrupted it, frowned and said, "You mean that you have already killed Wang Junlin." ”
