Chapter 106: Uncle is almost assassinated
"This is the messenger's gift to me? This regained must be a precious thing, and it really makes me curious to take it quickly. The emperor looked at the two brocade boxes and said with a smile on his face.
When the ministers of the palace saw that the gifts of the foreign messengers had been found again, their hearts were relieved.
The emperor's birthday banquet was lost as a gift from a foreign envoy, and although the emperor did not show it on his face, they could also guess that the emperor was already unhappy in his heart.
When the gift was not recovered, everyone sat quietly in their positions, and they didn't dare to come out.
As long as the emperor has not yet inspected the birthday gift, no matter what he does, he is afraid of touching the emperor's mold.
"Your Majesty, open it and see if it suits your heart." Ming Xinjiu heard the emperor's words, stood in the hall and gestured to the people around him, and then the people around him took the two wooden brocade boxes in their hands to the emperor and said.
The emperor raised his sleeves and opened a brocade box in front of him, and found that it was a picture scroll.
"Oh?" There was a moment of confusion on his face, and then he reached out and took the scroll in the brocade box, which was fixed with ropes, picked it up, and unfolded it again.
"Hahahaha." I saw the emperor laughing at the picture scroll, and he was very satisfied.
"This longevity map is specially sought by people, and it is not in vain that His Majesty likes it so much." Ming Xin saw that the emperor was satisfied for a long time, and said again.
"I have long heard that the first painter of the previous dynasty wrote a picture of longevity, which was auctioned off by a mysterious wealthy merchant, and then disappeared, when I didn't expect the messenger to find it for me, this really makes me very happy."
The emperor looked at the "Infinite Picture of Longevity" in front of him, and his face was even more smiling.
"It's an honor for Your Majesty to like us." Ming Xin replied with a long salute.
"Okay, I'm even more curious about what's in Aiqing's second brocade box now." The emperor was reluctant to hand over the scroll in his hand to his father-in-law on the side.
The father-in-law on the side gently took the scroll and then slowly rolled it up, carefully looking afraid that the scroll would be damaged.
Then, the emperor's hand reached out to another brocade box, compared to the long brocade box with a scroll in front of it, the other gift was a round brocade box, on which were engraved with precious stones, and you could faintly feel the cultural atmosphere of the capital through the decoration of the brocade box.
When the brocade box in front of him was opened, the emperor saw a squinting Buddha statue, the corners of his mouth raised, showing a happy smile, which made people feel infected at a glance.
"This thing is an Antarctic Buddha statue, with the meaning of happiness and longevity, and it is a gift specially invited by our state to be built by craftsmen and specially dedicated to Your Majesty." Ming Xin saw the emperor open the gift for a long time, so he said.
"I am very satisfied with your country's gift, and the messenger has worked hard." When the emperor heard Ming Xinjiu's words, he looked at the Buddha statue in front of him and nodded with a smile, and then closed the brocade box and handed it to his father-in-law on the side for safekeeping.
"It's not hard, I wish Your Majesty a long life and a blessing to the world!" Ming Xinjiu heard the emperor's words, and said again.
"I wish Your Majesty a long life and a blessing to the world!"
"I wish Your Majesty a long life and a blessing to the world!"
The courtiers who were sitting in their seats soon shouted in unison.
"Hahahaha, all Aiqing is exempt!"
The emperor sitting on the dragon chair looked at the ministers below and said, the smile on his face deepened, and his mood was very happy.
Suddenly, Ming Xinjiu sensed that something was wrong, and saw a dart suddenly fly towards the emperor sitting in the hall, and hurriedly stepped forward to block it.
The emperor was also startled by the sudden darts, and before he had time to react, he saw Ming Xin standing in front of him for a long time.
"Protect Your Majesty!"
Then there were many guards in the hall, with the emperor as the center, forming a circle, looking around vigilantly.
This voice sounded, and the ministers in the palace reacted, with panic and fright on their faces, and some even accidentally knocked over the delicacies on the table, leaving themselves covered with vegetable stains.
Ming Xin stood in front of the emperor for a long time, and was ready to bear the pain, but there was no pain on his body that he expected.
Turning around, they found a guard standing behind them at some point, and realized that it was this guard who had blocked the darts for them.
Feng April and Jun Yanhan hurriedly stepped forward to check on the guards, and found that the guards had bled to death in seven holes, which shows how ruthless the assassin was to the emperor.
Looking at the corpse in front of him, Feng April stepped forward to check the darts and found that the darts had been coated with poison.
"How?" Jun Yanhan looked at Feng April and asked.
"Ouchi's poison is enough to kill people in a moment." Feng April looked at Jun Yanhan seriously and replied.
The emperor, who had just brushed shoulders with death, also reacted quickly at this moment, and when he heard Feng April's answer, the god asked him to be serious.
Ming Xinjiu on the side also heard Feng April's words, looking at the guard who died tragically in front of him, he also seemed a little afraid in his heart, if it wasn't for this guard just now, maybe at this time, it was he who bleed and died violently.
The surrounding guards looked around vigilantly, but nothing happened in the hall, everyone was startled by the sudden change, and the atmosphere in the hall was extremely tense.
"Alright." After a while, after confirming that nothing would happen again, the emperor waved the guards aside.
After the surrounding guards walked by, the emperor saw that the pupils of the guards who were lying in a pool of blood, and the Qiqiao bleeding was particularly conspicuous.
"Pass my orders! Seal off the palace, take this guard down, bury him alive, and then treat his family well. The emperor said.
The father-in-law who received the order hurriedly answered the emperor's words, and then ordered someone to take down the corpse of the guard who had fallen in a pool of blood, and then withdrew from the palace.
"Your Majesty is really generous to others, and it is an honor for the people of your country." Ming Xinjiu heard the emperor's words and said again.
The ministers in the palace also recovered from the panic at this time, and they sorted out their clothes and crowns, looking at the ministers in the hall who were still frightened, the emperor couldn't help but feel upset, and then looked at Jun Yanhan and said:
"But do you see anything?"
"Father, please look at this dart, I took it from the guard who just died, and I can't say for sure."
As he spoke, Jun Yanhan handed the dart wrapped in a brocade to the emperor, and then the emperor reached out and took it and looked at it carefully.
"Does Your Majesty have any doubts in your heart?" Ming Xin asked for a long time when he saw that the emperor was slow to assert his words when he looked at the darts.
"But there is such a one, the Fu family who murdered my daughter before." The emperor looked at the dart and said
"Fu's? This should be unlikely. Ming Xinjiu heard the emperor say this and denied it.
"Oh?" The emperor looked up at Ming Xinjiu suspiciously.
"Your Majesty, please look at this dart, the style and casting material are a little different from Fu's, so it shouldn't be made by Fu's." Ming Xinjiu replied again.
