Chapter 124: Assassination
The emperor couldn't help but sigh, pointed at Lord Bai with trembling hands, and said sharply: "Lord Bai, what are you asking me to say about you?" ”
Lord Bai knelt there, clenched his fists and said, "The minister is willing to be punished." ”
“……”
Lord Bai is one of the few people above the court who is still willing to listen to him, if he is condemned because of a woman, it will be difficult to use him in the future.
Thinking of this, the emperor stopped, "Today's events, I will treat them as if they never happened, you go down." ”
However, although the emperor had already said that he would let him go down, he had no intention of leaving. Lord Bai knelt there, and the people watching didn't know what to say.
Seeing that he insisted on this, the emperor lowered his face coldly and asked, "Have you eaten the gall of the ambitious leopard?" How dare you contradict me like this? ”
"Please punish the emperor."
In that case, then don't blame him for being polite. Thinking like this, the emperor was ruthless and ordered: "Come on, take Lord Bai down and reward him with twenty boards!" ”
Lord Bai kowtowed to the emperor, "Thank you for the emperor's success." ”
“……”
After Lord Bai left, the emperor was in a complicated mood, and he almost didn't know what to say. He said in a deep voice: "Prince, you have taken the liberty of arresting the people of the Crescent Moon Country, have you ever thought about the consequences?" ”
Knowing that the emperor was blaming himself, the prince's heart tightened, and he immediately knelt down, "It's better to kill a thousand by mistake than to let go of one, and the same is true for the sons...... It's also for the sake of the regent's safety. ”
Of course, he caught the people of the Crescent Moon Country purely because he wanted to take credit.
The emperor said in a deep voice: "Now that it has been determined that it is the people of the Crescent Moon Country who want to assassinate the people of our royal family, then in the future, all people and things related to the Crescent Moon Country will be cut off." ”
He had waited so long for this day.
The prince clenched his fists and said, "Yes." ”
After saying this, he looked up at the emperor, his eyes full of anticipation. As an unfavored prince, he is too eager to be recognized by the emperor. However, the emperor didn't say anything, just said: "I'm tired, let's push it down." ”
The crown prince, who was still kneeling on the ground, saw the emperor away, couldn't help gritting his teeth and clenching his hands.
And the next moment, Yun Jingyao walked over from the side and said lightly: "Prince, the emperor is gone, you can get up." ”
Hearing this, the prince got up, patted his knee, and said lightly: "Thank you, lord." ”
Yun Jingyao nodded slightly, and then there was no follow-up.
For a moment, the atmosphere was a little awkward. In this embarrassing atmosphere, the prince said: "There is still something in the palace, if there is nothing to do, the prince, farewell." ”
Staying with Yun Jingyao, no matter when, is very unpleasant.
Yun Jingyao said lightly: "Farewell." ”
In a blink of an eye, only Yun Jingyao and Su Mujin were left in the hall. He put his hand on Su Mujin's shoulder and said, "The matter is all settled, and the next ......"
"I'm hungry," Su Mujin touched her shriveled stomach and said with a smile: "Then what, why don't we go eat together?" ”
The main thing is that she has been in the palace for a while, and no matter what, there can be anything good in the palace. It's better to be comfortable outside.
Yun Jingyao tilted his head and looked at the sky outside, and before he knew it, it was already evening. He pursed his lips, chuckled, and said, "Let's go." ”
Out of the palace, Su Mujin took Yun Jingyao to a place similar to a food stall and sat down. Su Mujin ordered a little barbecue, and then ate it by herself.
The skewers were steaming white, Su Mujin picked up a skewer and licked it gently, the meat was just taken out of the grill, and it was so hot that she immediately took out the meat that was sent to her mouth.
Looking at the meat in his hand, Su Mujin approached and blew it hurriedly, and at this moment, there were more skewers of meat in front of him, Su Mujin looked at Yun Jingyao along the meat, and couldn't help asking, "You...... Don't you eat it? ”
Hearing this, Yun Jingyao shook his head, "I'm not hungry yet. ”
At this moment, he suddenly looked at the alley next to him, and his face was solemn as if he could form a layer of ice. Taking the skewers, Su Mujin pursed her lips and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Yun Jingyao didn't speak.
At this moment, a group of masked people suddenly burst out of the alley, and as soon as they came out, they went straight for them.
Before Su Mujin could react, she was taken to the roof by Yun Jingyao. Yun Jingyao said in a deep voice: "Hold on to me." ”
It's really stupid to not understand what's going on now. Su Mujin was still grabbing the skewers she hadn't had time to eat just now, and she was nervous just now, and she directly pasted the skewers onto Yun Jingyao's body.
For a moment, the atmosphere was a little awkward.
That's not the most important thing, though, what matters is what happened to those assassins? How can their whereabouts be exposed wherever they go? They don't look like they're from the Crescent Country......
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, and in the blink of an eye, Yun Jingyao took her to an inaccessible place. He put Su Mujin in a safe corner, and then said, "You wait for me here, don't go anywhere." ”
Hearing this, Su Mujin frowned lightly and looked at Yun Jingyao away.
By the time Yun Jingyao reached the open area, the assassins who had come to chase him had already rushed over. When they saw that Yun Jingyao was alone, they drew their swords one after another and rushed towards Yun Jingyao.
Yun Jingyao snatched the sword of one of the assassins in three strokes and five divided by two, and a moment later, between the swords and swords, all the black-clothed people were beaten to the ground.
They rolled on the ground with their heads in their hands, stunned that none of them dared to stand up. For no other reason, they were all scared.
Looking at the people on the ground, Yun Jingyao said in a deep voice, "Who sent you?" ”
"We ...... We ......" Before the assassin could finish speaking, he was about to stab Yun Jingyao, but before he could get close to Yun Jingyao, he kicked him back.
Yun Jingyao pursed her lips and said in a deep voice, "Let me ask again, who sent you?" ”
However, no one is willing to tell the truth.
At this moment, Su Mujin hurriedly ran over, took out a pill, and stuffed it into the mouth of the person who had just been kicked by Yun Jingyao.
After the man took the medicine, he instantly fell to the ground and pumped. Su Mujin squatted down and sneered: "Just now you ate my Nine Turns Broken Soul Dispersion, without the antidote, you will definitely not live for a stick of incense, if you want to live, I advise you to say the master's name and surname as soon as possible." ”
"I said, I said," the man said in a trembling voice, "Yes," the man said in a trembling voice...... It's the Seven Princes. ”
It turned out to be him?!
Su Mujin got up and looked at Yun Jingyao. They both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
