Chapter 242: Are You Doubting Hongu?
Bridal chamber.
Amid the laughter of the guests, Nan Baozhu and Ning Wanzhou drank wine together.
"Oh no!"
Sharp and anxious shouts suddenly came from outside the house.
Ignoring etiquette, the little maid hurriedly pushed aside the guests, and fell to the ground crying: "Little grandfather, there is an accident in the front yard!" The eldest princess and the grandfather of the country, they, they ......"
Ning Wanzhou took the lead in dropping the golden gourd wine cup, got up and ran to the front yard.
The guests looked at each other, came back to their senses, and followed.
Parvis.
The lights were rekindled.
Hundreds of corpses of black-clothed people were moved together and lined up neatly by the guards of the Zhenguo Mansion.
The two sisters of the Ning family knelt in front of the stretcher and cried at the eldest princess and the prince of Zhenguo.
Ning Wanzhou, who came in a hurry, had red eyes, staring at her father's corpse, her hands clenched into fists, and on the back of her white hand, it was clearly visible that the green tendons were bursting up.
The whispers of the nobles came all around:
"Tonight's woe is so sudden!"
"I don't know who instructed it, when I pick someone to do a happy event, I don't have morality!"
"Speaking of which, the prince of Zhenguo and the eldest princess died young, can the little grandfather afford the Guogong Mansion?"
"He's only eighteen years old, and he just got married, what can he afford?"
"Isn't there still a brother-in-law? Let his brother-in-law take charge of the mansion for him. β
In the midst of the doubts, the servants of the Zhenguo Mansion cried so hard that it was as if the sky had fallen.
Minami Ho Zhu is the calmest one.
She remembered what Her Royal Highness the eldest princess had said to her in the new room, and secretly said that tonight's disaster, the eldest princess probably had expected it in advance, but she didn't expect it to come so quickly.
There was a rare tenacity in her eyes.
No matter what, she will be by Wanwan's side!
Zhou Lingshu hurriedly walked to Nan Baoyi's side and whispered: "I was eating and drinking here, and suddenly there was a strong wind, the lights were extinguished, and the stars and moon were gone. Armed with bows and arrows and long knives, these men in black attacked the Zhenguo Duke and his wife with no fate. Although both husband and wife are masters, they can see clearly in the dark, and it is too late for the guards to arrive with torches......"
Nan Baoyi's face was solemn.
The courtyard is full of red silk cloth and red lanterns, but it is very gloomy to the eye.
The smell of blood in the wind was so strong, no one expected that there would be such a catastrophe on tonight's happy day.
"Second Brother ......"
She didn't know what to do.
saw Xiao Yi squatting down on one knee and pinching open the cheeks of a man in black.
His face was expressionless: "The tongue was cut off many years ago, and there is no mark on the body, it should be a dead soldier raised by the nobles." β
His fingertips paused on the sideburns of the man in black, and he suddenly stretched out his hand towards Nan Baoyi.
Nan Baoyi understood and immediately handed over a sheep's horn lamp.
Xiao Yi approached the other party's sideburns with a sheep's horn lamp, where there was a faint amount of gold dust.
As the procession passes through Chang'an City, the maids will throw candy and flower petals on the sides of the street, which are embellished with this gorgeous gold dust.
He stood up and said in a deep voice: "These black-clothed people infiltrated the Zhenguo Mansion in the greeting team, so the guards of the Zhenguo Mansion will be unable to guard against it. β
"It must be that the prince of Zhenguo and the eldest princess did a lot of evil and offended others, so they caused the disaster of killing. Otherwise, there were so many people present, why did the dead soldiers only kill the two of them? It can be seen that you have committed your own iniquity, and you cannot live! β
A flirtatious voice suddenly sounded.
Nan Baoyi looked back. I love Search.com
Empress Shen was walking this way.
She was followed by Shen Yichao and the Zhao family, and it was Zhao Wu, the son of the Zhao family, who just spoke.
In the past, he was abolished by the little grandfather for molesting Zhuzhu, but he didn't expect that not only did he not learn a lesson, but he became more debauched and arrogant, and his words were not inferior.
Empress Shen sat down calmly.
Everyone saluted her together.
Nan Baoyi did her duty, and still played the role of the No. 1 minister by Shen Jiang's side, and walked behind her diligently to pour tea for her.
Zhao Wu picked a seat, and after sitting down, he continued to gloat: "As the so-called good and evil are rewarded, the Zhenguo Mansion and his wife have done too many bad things, so they have suffered retribution, and maybe they will be after deathββ"
"Bang!"
No one could see clearly how Ning Wanzhou made a move.
The red clothes swept by, and Zhao Wu flew out directly!
He knocked over two food tables, the soup and water spilled all over his body, "ouch ouch" covered his mouth, blood oozed from his fingers, he looked down and saw that the palm of his hand turned out to be two broken front teeth!
He cried and shouted, "You hit me? Ning Wanzhou, why are you beating me?! β
Taiwei Zhao hugged his son distressedly: "Ning Wanzhou, it wasn't Wu'er who killed your parents, he just said two jokes, how can you be so ruthless?" You're so ruthless! β
Ning Wanzhou didn't care about the father and son at all.
He stared at Shen Jiang with red eyes: "I heard the guards say that it was the crested hairpin that brought trouble to my father and mother." But as far as I know, that crested hairpin was once a wedding gift from A-Niang. Please also ask the queen mother to tell Weichen, how did it appear on my mother's head? β
Shen Jiang picked up the teacup.
She blew on the green tea soup, and a touch of coldness pouted on Zhu's lips: "Are you suspicious of this palace?" β
"I don't dare, I just want to ask my mother to tell the truth."
"This palace knows that the eldest princess and the prince of Zhenguo died tragically, and you are sad. But no matter how sad you are, you shouldn't doubt this palace. This palace will ask someone to investigate the truth and give your father and mother justice. β
Ning Wanzhou's fox eyes were even more bloody and crimson.
He stared at Shen Jiang and slowly approached step by step: "Weichen just wants to know why that crested hairpin appeared on my mother's head." Empress Shen, didn't you hear Wei Chen's question clearly? Or is it that the so-called real murderer behind the scenes is you, Queen Shen?! β
The boy's tail note rises abruptly.
He was like a rainbow across the sun, with boundless hatred, he suddenly drew his sword and attacked Shen Jiang!
The house is full of horrors.
No one expected that he would suddenly make a move on Shen Jiang.
Nan Baoyi stood beside Shen Jiang.
At this moment, my mind turned a thousand times.
Although she didn't know what the crested hairpin was, she believed in Ning Wanzhou's judgment, and she believed that it was Empress Shen and the Zhao family who teamed up to murder the Duke of Zhenguo and the eldest princess.
The purpose of the murder was to seize military power.
After the death of the Duke of Zhenguo, the military power and title should be inherited by the little grandfather.
If the little grandfather assassinates Queen Shen, it is equivalent to handing over his handle to Queen Shen, not to mention inheriting the title, and it is even very likely that he will be convicted and imprisoned.
Empress Shen still has elusive blood guards hidden by her side, how powerful they are together, even the second brother is difficult to deal with, let alone the little grandfather.
So the little grandfather's assassination will not only not succeed, but will even implicate himself.
These thoughts swept through Nan Baoyi's mind.
In the next moment, before she could react, she had already subconsciously blocked in front of Queen Shen!
The sharp sword sank straight into her chest.
It all happened so fast.
No one expected that she would block the sword for Empress Shen!
