Chapter 40: One Stroke to Kill
Updated: 2014-05-01
Qin Yunuan killed his mother, forced his favorite little sister to marry a person like the third prince, forced him to fake his death and live incognito and wearing a mask, and forced him to be cornered.
Qin Linfeng took out the sleeve arrow hidden between the cuffs, and with a sigh of two sounds, the arrows stained with deadly poison shot directly at Qin Yunuan, Leng Wu and Leng Shuang both shot, and easily blocked the two poisonous arrows, Qin Linfeng smiled evilly, as if he had put life and death out of the way, and the cuffs were spread, Leng Wu Leng Shuang found that there was still an arrow inside, and secretly screamed in his heart, the arrow was off the string, as if it was covered with water and difficult to collect.
And just after the sound of a string on the ground, it was Qin Linfeng who fell, and the third poisonous sleeve arrow was being inserted into his chest without a minute, which was the location of the heart.
And at the door of the main hall, Leng Changxi didn't know when he appeared, he turned sideways, his freshly washed white clothes floated up at will, and he still had a colorful marble between his fingertips, which was the plaything he promised Baochuan to bring back when he went back before going out, and the yellow glass bead that just hit the arrow and bounced back the poisonous arrow and shot Qin Linfeng was rolling down to the ground.
The speed of Leng Changxi's shot was already comparable to that mechanically constructed Hidden Arrow.
"Brother!" Qin Yunxiang cried hysterically when he saw Qin Linfeng who had fallen upright, and rushed up desperately to hug Qin Linfeng's body, tears and the dark red blood that came out of Qin Linfeng's chest flowed into a ball, embarrassed.
Sima Rui only glanced at him, and Liu Bao hurriedly stepped forward to pull Qin Yun's makeup up from Qin Linfeng's corpse.
"The third princess, this is in front of the palace, and the person you are holding is a sinner who deceives the emperor and deserves to be beheaded." Liu Bao lowered his voice and reminded Qin Yunxiang in his ear.
Qin Yunxiang was extremely grief-stricken, and couldn't help herself for a while, so he actually threw himself at Qin Qian's feet and begged: "Father, you have to be the master of the eldest brother, the eldest brother was killed by that poisonous woman, you must avenge the eldest brother." "The poisonous woman in Qin Yun's mouth refers to Qin Yunuan.
Qin Yunuan couldn't help but shake his head, this woman was too stupid, according to Qin Zhen's temperament, a dead eldest son and a small reputation, he would naturally choose the latter.
"Captain Qin, is there anything else you want to say?" Emperor Zhaoxuan's tone dragged on for a long time, obviously demonstrating to Qin Qian.
Qin Zhen glanced at the corpse of his daughter holding his thigh and Qin Linfeng, whose blood had dried up, and gritted his teeth and said: "The minister has no way to teach his son, Linfeng died well, and the minister has no complaints;
。 ”
"Father," Qin Yun's face was full of despair, and at this moment she realized that it was not her mother who loved her the most in the world, not her father, but her eldest brother who had died in front of her, "Father, I hate you, I will always hate you." After speaking, Qin Yunxiang pushed Qin Zhi away fiercely, and Qin Zhi stumbled, but fortunately, he was supported by his colleagues beside him, and it was Zuo Xiang Shangguan Yuan who supported him, and at this moment he was looking at Qin Zhi and sneering gloomily.
Looking at Qin Linfeng's corpse on the ground, Emperor Zhaoxuan was still angry: "Come on, drag down the corpse of this deceitful Qin Linfeng, the corpse is in the wilderness, and no one is allowed to collect the corpse for him." ”
Qin Qian's body trembled suddenly, but he still held back, only Qin Yunxiang knelt in front of Emperor Zhaoxuan crying and pleaded: "Father, father, please open the net, although my brother deceived you, but he predicted the earthquake accurately and saved so many people's lives, please look at this point and open up the Internet." ”
"Regarding the earthquake, the minister happens to have something to report." Leng Changxi had already entered the hall at this time, he was wearing a mask to cover his somewhat pale face, "Someone is coming, bring everyone who has been caught under the mountain." ”
Soon, a group of men with their wrists tied up in tandem were brought up, all of them dressed in black, with black cloth scarves around their necks, about a dozen people, two of whom had several bundles of unlit explosives hanging from their waists.
Leng Changxi ripped off the explosive bag and untied it, shaking it out full of saltpeter sulfur, just with this bag of explosives, it would not be a problem to blow up a courtyard with two entrances and two exits, Leng Changxi sneered: "This is the cause of the earthquake." ”
Some people present were puzzled, Leng Changxi slowly explained: "The so-called earthquake so to take refuge in the palace is fake, tricked everyone into the palace, and then planted explosives in key areas of the mountain, causing the mountain to collapse, forming the illusion of the sky and the earth cracking, so that everyone really thinks that the earthquake is real, as for how this scam is rounded back, it is very simple, on the way back, cut down some trees, destroy some houses, as long as we see a mess on the way back, Naturally, we would have thought that there had been an earthquake in the capital. ”
"So, there were no earthquakes at all?" Some ministers boldly agreed.
"That's right, not only did there be no earthquake," Leng Changxi's afterglow kept staring at Sima Rui, "and the Guo Shidong pretended by Qin Linfeng must have colluded with the people in the palace, otherwise he would not have touched the emperor's temper so thoroughly, and their group not only wanted to use this so-called earthquake to eradicate the Seven Princes, but also wanted the emperor and the Manchu Dynasty to believe that this Guo Shidong was really an immortal who could predict the future, so that he could act in the future." ”
Emperor Zhaoxuan was so angry that he slapped the handrail on the throne, and the carvings on the armrests trembled: "I will actually be played around with such a trick, and I must know who is in the same league with this young master of the Qin family who pretends to be a ghost." ”
At this moment, Qin Yunfei's expression became excited: "Father, please, please let go of the eldest brother in the end, he is already dead, please leave a whole corpse." "Qin Yunxiang really can't accept that Qin Linfeng's corpse is going to be exposed to the wilderness.
"Liu Bao, drag the eldest princess down." Sima Rui commanded sharply, his tone urgent, "Without my instructions, she is not allowed to leave the courtyard again," and then Sima Rui asked Emperor Zhaoxuan for guilt, "The son did not take good care of his princess, and asked his father to surrender." ”
Seeing that Qin Yunxiang was dragged out by Liu Bao and a few little eunuchs covering his mouth, and Qin Linfeng's body was also dragged out by several chamberlains wrapped in linen, and the blood stains were quickly cleaned up, Qin Yunuan moved his gaze to a kneeling Seventh Prince Sima Qiu, he didn't speak, his expression was indifferent, and the five finger prints on his face were still reminding Fang Cai's shame.
In his ears were Emperor Zhaoxuan's cold words: "I heard that this so-called Guo Gaoren is your staff?" ”
Sima Rui trembled, and hurriedly knelt down, his tone was 120,000 sincere: "Father, please listen to Erchen's explanation, Erchen appreciates Guo Shidong's ability is good, but Erchen doesn't know his true identity at all, and he doesn't know that his heart is so vicious;
。 ”
"I don't know, hum, Third Highness, you know, many of these black-clothed people I caught are the apprentices of your personal servant Liu Bao." Leng Changxi said as he casually pointed in the line of black-clothed people, "This, that, and the penultimate one, Gonggong Liu, do you know them all?" ”
Liu Bao was originally Sima Rui's right-hand man, and many of the good things Sima Rui did secretly had Liu Bao's assistance, and now he ......
Sima Rui suddenly glanced at Liu Bao coldly.
"Three halls ......." Before Liu Bao finished speaking, he was kicked to the ground by Sima Rui, which happened to kick Liu Bao's chest, which made Liu Bao speechless in pain.
"I treat you well, you actually eat inside and out, collude with others to deceive my father and betray me, what is the use of me keeping you?" Sima Rui looked angry, raised his hand, and pulled out the treasure knife on the waist of the guard with the knife next to him, and raised it to slash at Liu Bao's neck.
"Your Highness is angry." Leng Changxi grabbed Sima Rui's arm with the knife violently, the two looked at each other, one was full of anger, and the other looked sharp and indifferent, "Things haven't been clarified yet, isn't it a little hasty for His Royal Highness to be so reckless?" ”
Sima Rui's eyes condensed slightly, and then he raised his voice: "This dog slave just deceived me, and ruined the birthday banquet of the imperial grandmother, his ambition is not small, and he can't stay anymore." ”
Seeing Emperor Zhaoxuan's brows tightened, Empress Chen hurriedly comforted him softly: "Your Majesty, Rui'er is just not good at employing people, and he has been deceived by the people below. ”
"Hmph, what a Jiangshan Sheji," Yun Guifei pursed her lips and smiled, "Now the three princes have almost made a mess of Jiangshan Sheji." ”
"Shut up." It was the first time that Emperor Zhaoxuan had such a big anger on Concubine Yun, and things had reached such a point that Concubine Yun should not add fuel to the fire.
"Take people down." Leng Changxi shook Sima Rui's hand hard, and watched Leng Wu drag Liu Bao, who was still holding his heart, down with two subordinates, before he arched his hand to Emperor Zhaoxuan, "Please rest assured, the emperor will definitely investigate this matter strictly and will never tolerate anyone." ”
Sima Rui's heart tightened slightly, but he was a little glad to see that Liu Bao, who was in pain from being kicked by that kick, he was just right, and he was sure that before Leng Changxi could speak from Liu Bao's mouth, Liu Bao was already lifeless to speak. He has always been ruthless and leaves no room for change.
The seventh prince, Sima Qiu, undoubtedly became the most innocent person in this chaos, and Sima Qiu has always maintained a quiet state, which adds to Emperor Zhaoxuan's guilt for this son he has not seen for many years.
Sima Qiu was sent down to recuperate, and the rest of the people also went back to rest, preparing to return to the capital at noon today, Leng Changxi was no longer as tired as he looked at first, fortunately, Sun Miaoyang found the two silver needles at a glance, so it basically had no impact on Leng Changxi, just to paralyze the enemy, Qin Yunuan came forward and put on a good show.
"The slave doesn't understand anything." On the way back with Qin Yunuan, Man'er suddenly asked.
