Chapter 101: Killing the King
"Yo, just say who the noble girl next to me is who doesn't salute when she sees the lord of this county. It turned out to be the daughter of the general of Zhenguo, no wonder she didn't take the county lord seriously. Xu Qingqing's words were filled with guns and sticks.
But Lin Yaoyue smiled and said to Xu Qingqing slightly, "Lin Yaoyue has seen Lord Xuanyi. ”
Xu Qingqing didn't expect Fang Cai's own remarks, Lin Yaoyue was not angry, and saluted her sincerely and respectfully.
Xu Qingqing was a little speechless for a long time. On the way to pick up the star platform, she listened to how the Lin family won the emperor's grace and how Lin Yaoyue won the regent's blue eyes. Xu Qingqing, the emperor's reward, didn't care about her, but when she thought of the cold and noble eyes of the regent Murong Jin doting and gently staring at Lin Yaoyue's face, she couldn't help but want to trouble Lin Yaoyue.
Xu Qingqing was about to speak again, but Queen Xu beside her opened her mouth and said, "Qingqing, you are not allowed to be rude to Miss Lin." ”
Xu Qingqing was immediately stunned when he heard this.
How could her aunt, who loved her the most, help Lin Yaoyue speak. She hurriedly stepped forward to coquettish Queen Xu's arms, and by the way, she said to Xu Qingqing, who was speechless on the side, "Second sister, look at it, my aunt doesn't like Qingqing anymore." ”
Hearing this, Xu Qingqing's expression moved slightly, but she still had a calm look. She raised her eyes to look at Lin Yaoyue, but she felt that Lin Yaoyue was keenly observing something on her.
Xu Qingqing couldn't help but shake her posture. But Lin Yaoyue, who was on the side, immediately stepped forward to help her with a smile, "Miss Xu Er is okay?"
Xu Qingqing only felt that Lin Yaoyue's inky phoenix eyes had a very shallow smile, and her eyes were like eagles, very keen. She touched her left sleeve, Xu Qingqing couldn't help but be startled and took a step back.
"Second sister, what's wrong with you?"
Before the surprised Xuanyi County Lord Xu Qingqing's voice fell, there was a commotion on the Lintian steps of the Star Picking Platform, and I heard a palace man shouting loudly, "Quick, go and call the imperial doctor to come, the emperor fainted." ”
When they heard this, several people on the small pavilion here also looked shocked. Empress Xu hurriedly walked towards the heavenly steps with the support of Zhu'er.
I saw that in the midst of everyone, Emperor Murong Ping was shivering and convulsing. His face was pale and he had some difficulty breathing.
At that moment, a slender and bony hand reached out. Lin Yaoyue saw that it was Ji Yanqing, the head of the Ji family. I saw Ji Yanqing put his hand on Emperor Murong Ping's forehead, and pinched Emperor Murong Ping's mouth and opened it. Qingrun's voice said with some urgency, "Hurry up and prepare the bean juice and bring it, the more the better." ”
Immediately afterwards, Ji Yanqing let everyone on the side disperse, and tapped several big points on Emperor Murong Ping's body with his fingertips. Lin Yaoyue clearly found that this was Ji Yanqing forcing the poison out of his body for the emperor, but it was extremely depleting of his cultivation.
She couldn't help but think a little, Ji Yanqing, as the head of the four great families, didn't actually have to do this for Murong Ping. Their four great families are deeply rooted in Dawan, and the momentary honor and disgrace cannot shake their foundation at all. Especially with his Ji family and Xu family as an example.
After a while, the little father-in-law brought over a large bucket of bean juice. Ji Yanqing glanced at it, and said to the little father-in-law, "Give it to Your Majesty, even if it is to induce vomiting." ”
The little father-in-law nodded hurriedly, along with a few little eunuchs who were waiting for Emperor Murong Ping next to him. stepped forward to support Emperor Murong Ping. I poured the bucket of bean juice into him.
After a while, Murong Ping couldn't help but vomit. But man is clearly awake. Murong Ping only felt uncomfortable, nauseous, colic in his abdomen and a splitting headache.
"What is going on?" Murong Ping frowned.
Ji Yanqing stood aside, frowning slightly. He seemed to think about it for a moment, and finally said. "Your Majesty has been poisoned by Dansha. ”
"What?!" Emperor Murong Ping snapped up. He thought that his headache was getting worse and worse, so he suddenly fainted. But I never thought that someone poisoned him and wanted to kill him. Immediately, Murong Ping shouted, "Where is the Imperial Forest Army?"
The attendant wearing dark chain mail on the side stepped forward, "I respectfully follow Your Majesty's orders." ”
Murong Ping's slender eyes swept past everyone present, and said to the leader of the Imperial Forest Army, "Press everyone on the star picking platform back to Hanyuan Palace, and I will personally interrogate them." ”
Murong Ping's voice was fierce and furious. No one in the audience dared to step forward to give a word of advice.
Subsequently, Murong Ping, with Gao Quan's support, sat on the dragon bowl and headed towards Hanyuan Palace. And the ministers and their daughters were half-escorted by the Imperial Guards and followed.
At this time, the civil and military officials did not have the official spirit of the past. They were now being escorted like prisoners by the Guards, but they did not dare to resist in the slightest. I was afraid that because I was careless, I would be dragged out by Emperor Murong Ping and beheaded to vent my anger.
One by one, they were gray-headed and dirty, and they didn't dare to raise their eyes.
Lin Yaoyue was naturally already among the escorts, but at this time she seemed to be thinking slightly. She already knew who poisoned the emperor, but she didn't know if it should be revealed.
Just then, a figure approached her. There was tenderness in his eyes, and he smiled lightly, "What are you thinking?"
As soon as the cold, gentle man approached her, she knew who he was. The faint fragrance of ambergris and rosemary intertwined lured into her heart.
Lin Yaoyue looked back.
I saw Murong Jin get off his seat and walk with her. She couldn't help but sigh, it's true that everyone has their own lives. Then he looked at Murong Jin and smiled, and said with some teasing, "Why did the prince sit down." He was escorted along with his courtiers. The courtiers were uneasy. ”
Murong Jin looked at Lin Yaoyue's smart eyes that were obviously sarcastic at this time. couldn't help but hook a shallow arc on his lips, and looked at Lin Yaoyue with a smile. He turned to Lin Yaoyue and glanced behind him.
Suddenly, the air stagnated.
The two royal forest guards who were originally following Lin Yaoyue and guarding her couldn't help but shrink back. Uncontrollably drove away from Lin Yaoyue, and the look on his face was no longer as sharp as Fang Cai's.
Lin Yaoyue looked at the escort guards behind her like walking on thin ice, and then looked at Murong Jin's doting gaze at her at this time, and couldn't help but smile.
"The prince really treats him differently. ”
Hearing this, the smile on Murong Jin's face did not decrease. Just glanced back again, and suddenly the two escorted guards immediately left Lin Yaoyue more than a foot away. insisted on pulling out a long gap between the escorted team.
At this time, Lin Yaoyue restrained the playful look in her eyes, and looked at Murong Jindao with some seriousness, "What if Your Majesty can't find out the real murderer this time?"
Murong Jin was slightly flustered when he heard this, "I will probably start a killing spree." Murong Jin's voice was very soft and calm.
But Lin Yaoyue's heart couldn't calm down. What to do is right, she must think carefully.
