Chapter 366: Assassination

Thinking so, Lin Kite prepared to leave.

In order to avoid startling the snake, she quietly left the secluded place with bated breath and walked towards the crowd.

This matter is very important, and we must quickly find someone to discuss countermeasures!

Lin Yuan hurriedly walked through the crowd of people who came to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday, and went directly to find Jiuhu and Zhao Yun.

Jiuhu and Zhao Yun were drinking tea and chatting in the pavilion behind the imperial garden at this time, and the two of them had a transcendent status, just waiting for the banquet to begin to reappear as the queen mother's birthday.

"Kite, what's wrong with you, you're in such a hurry?" Zhao Yun saw Lin Yuan hurriedly walking towards him and Jiuhu from a distance, and she looked as if she was in a hurry.

"I was wandering near the Imperial Garden Trail just now, and I happened to see the Dongying envoy sneaky, so I hid aside and peeked to know what he wanted to do, who would have thought that he would actually run into him and conspire with someone to assassinate the emperor."

Lin Yuan panted and walked up to the two of them, and then hurriedly told Yu Jiuhu and Zhao Yun what he had just done when he bumped into the messenger.

"I really can't imagine that Dongying people are so bold! Nine Fox, your safety is at stake, can the Queen Mother's birthday banquet continue? After listening to Lin Kite's words, Zhao Yun was concerned about the safety of the Nine Fox, so he looked at the Nine Fox and said.

After all, compared to the safety of the king of a country, the birthday banquet of the queen mother is not so important.

"That Dongying man is ambitious, and he has always been eyeing my dynasty, and I think they didn't have a good heart at the beginning of this meeting, but since he is ready to assassinate me, then I will accompany him to play." Jiuhu thought about it for a while, and then spoke.

Southern Xinjiang has always attached importance to filial piety, there is no good reason, just because it is expected that someone will assassinate someone will not hold a birthday banquet, this matter may attract many discussions, but I am afraid that the queen mother will be more dissatisfied at this time, so Jiuhu is not ready to postpone the birthday banquet of the queen mother.

In order to block the mouths of Youyou, Jiuhu plans to use himself as bait and play a play with the Dongying envoy, taking this opportunity to weaken the power of the Dongying envoy in southern Xinjiang.

Taking this opportunity to find evidence can also expose the true face of the Dongying envoy.

"Yes, Your Majesty, it is better than me being in the open and the enemy in the dark, but we must not fight an unprepared battle, but we must prepare our men in advance." Zhao Yun was worried about Jiuhu's safety, so he suggested.

"That's nature."

In Fang Cai's contemplation, Jiuhu had already thought of a countermeasure, and after he and Zhao Yun quickly discussed, he directly ordered the secret guards around him to change the guards near the Queen Mother's birthday banquet and replace them all with the elites in the secret guards, and Jiuhu and Zhao Yun both prepared weapons for self-defense, just waiting for the Dongying envoy to fall into the trap.

As soon as Jiuhu and Zhao Yun were ready, they saw the eunuch beside him hurriedly come over and tell him that the banquet was about to begin.

Jiuhu attaches great importance to the birthday banquet of the queen mother, and he directly handed over the matter to the Ministry of Rites in advance to prepare, and the Ministry of Rites is naturally preparing wholeheartedly.

Nine Fox and the Queen Mother's mother and son walked to the banquet together, only to see that it had been beautifully decorated.

"You're bothered." The Queen Mother glanced at the surrounding arrangements with satisfaction and spoke.

"If the queen mother likes it, the son should be."

With the appearance of the Nine Fox and the Queen Mother, the ministers who were fortunate enough to be invited to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday slowly stood up and congratulated the Queen Mother on her birthday.

Since it is the birthday banquet of the Queen Mother, it is naturally indispensable to present the birthday gift to the Queen Mother.

After everyone sat down, they stepped forward to present the birthday gifts they had carefully prepared for the queen mother, but when they arrived at the imperial concubine, she sold it.

I saw that the imperial concubine clapped her hands, and four palace people carried up a huge box, which was more than half a person high, and was covered with a red cloth, which made it difficult to see the clues.

"Queen Mother, the concubine has always heard that you like red coral, thinking that your birthday is approaching, I found a lot of skilled craftsmen to make a red coral statue for you, I don't know if you like it?" The imperial concubine walked to the side of the box, stretched out her hand to lift the red silk cloth covering it, and in the amazement of everyone, she saw an ornament made of huge red coral appear in front of everyone.

Although red coral is not a rare thing, it is difficult to find such a complete red coral, and it is carved with auspicious patterns by skilled craftsmen according to the texture of the coral, and some bats are vividly carved in the back, which is priceless at a glance and very rare.

"It's hard to be filial piety for the imperial concubine, the mourning family likes this red coral ornament you sent very much, but the mourning family looks at you and has reduced a lot recently, the emperor said yes?" The Queen Mother was very satisfied with the birthday gift given to her by the imperial concubine, and then shifted the topic to Nine Fox.

"The imperial concubine does look a lot thinner recently, and she usually pays attention to taking care of her body." Seeing that the Queen Mother said this, Jiuhu couldn't disobey her old man's will on her face, so she had to look at the imperial concubine with concern and said.

"In order not to worry the Queen Mother and His Majesty, the concubines will also take care of their bodies." Hearing Jiuhu's words, the imperial concubine glanced at the other concubines proudly and said in a coquettish voice.

After the people who participated in the birthday banquet sent congratulatory gifts to the Queen Mother, the banquet officially began, only to see a group of dancers dressed in colorful feather coats elegantly walked to the middle of the venue and began to dance the dance specially choreographed for the Queen Mother's birthday.

This group of dancers is highly trained, and they sway to the beat of the musicians' drums, and one by one they dance the colorful silk on their bodies.

As the drumbeat became more and more intensive, the dancers' movements became faster and faster, and they danced the colorful silk in their hands into colorful spheres, which was very beautiful.

The civil officials at the scene could barely see the movements of the dancing girls, and the military attachés noticed that something seemed to be wrong, and the surroundings were too noisy.

Just when everyone's attention was focused on the dancing girls in the center of the venue, many people dressed in black and short clothes appeared out of nowhere.

These people were all masked over their faces, and as soon as they appeared, they went straight to the Nine Foxes, who were sitting at the top.

When they approached Jiuhu, the group of black-clothed men took out the daggers on their bodies and stabbed them directly at Nine Foxes.

Seeing this, Nine Fox directly picked up the long sword prepared in advance from under the table, blocked the dagger closest to him, and tangled with the assassins.

Seeing this scene, the dark guards that Nine Fox had changed in advance also took out their weapons one after another and fought with the assassins.

Although Nine Fox had prepared in advance, those assassins were all strong in martial arts, and the fight was extremely difficult.

Zhao Yun also took out the weapon prepared in advance from under the table, he first protected Lin Kite to dodge, pulled Lin Kite to a safe place to hide, and then dragged the long sword into the battle.

However, those assassins were strong in martial arts, but they were also difficult to beat, and the Nine Foxes were prepared, and they soon fell into disadvantage.

The imperial concubine stared blankly at the assassins who suddenly appeared, these assassins were a little different from what she expected, and they seemed to be real, and the dagger had a cold glow on it, so that the imperial concubine did not dare to approach.

The Queen Mother saw that the assassins were about to be repulsed, and the Imperial Concubine was still standing still stupidly, and secretly cursed a fool in her heart, she approached the Imperial Concubine and pushed her while others were not ready to do so, and directly pushed the Imperial Concubine to the side of Nine Foxes.

Here the Nine Fox was fighting with the assassin who was the leader, and the assassin saw a woman suddenly bumped into him in the distance, and he didn't want to dodge back, so he stabbed the dagger into the imperial concubine.

After being stabbed, the imperial concubine fainted directly and collapsed limply at the assassin's feet.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhao Yun rushed over and directly knocked the dagger in the hands of the assassins led by him to the ground, and the guards swarmed up and quickly subdued those assassins.

The envoy of Dongying witnessed the whole process of the failed assassination on the sidelines, and there was a touch of anger in his heart.

His plan is obviously very thorough, but looking at Jiuhu's appearance, it seems that he has been prepared in advance, what happened to leak the news?

The envoy was angry and anxious in his heart, but he didn't dare to express it on his face, but walked towards the imperial concubine who had fainted, and the queen mother also noticed the situation of the imperial concubine's fainting.

I saw the imperial concubine fainting and lying on the ground, looking very embarrassed, a lot of blood flowed from the place where she was stabbed, her clothes were soaked with blood, and the whole person was very weak.

The Queen Mother originally thought it was just a play, but she didn't expect the fight to be so real, and Jiuhu seemed to be prepared, what was going on?

But now that the imperial concubine's body is critical, the queen mother suppressed the doubts in her heart and ordered someone to hurriedly send the imperial doctor to come to diagnose and treat Huang Guifei.

"The imperial concubine was assassinated, and the imperial doctor was sent quickly!" The Queen Mother said loudly.

The imperial physician soon came to the scene with a medical kit, in addition to the imperial concubine who was stabbed by the assassin and fainted, there were also some officials and eunuchs at the scene who avoided the trampling because of panic, and the imperial physicians diagnosed and treated them one by one.

A chief physician walked to the imperial concubine's side, because she was worried about tearing the wound, but the concubine was still lying there quietly at this time, without moving.

The imperial doctor first carefully observed the wound of the imperial concubine, her wound was not very deep, the reason why the imperial concubine fainted was because of excessive blood loss, this is a traumatic injury, as long as the recuperation period can be recovered, the imperial doctor put his heart at ease, and put his hand on the imperial concubine's wrist to check her pulse.

The harem concubines all stared nervously at the imperial doctor, waiting for his diagnosis.

In their opinion, although this imperial concubine is not favored, after all, her status is transcendent, and they very much hope that through this time, they can have one less strong enemy.

The imperial doctor's expression gradually became serious, and after he confirmed it several times, he walked directly to the Queen Mother and whispered a few words to the Queen Mother.

After listening to the words of the Imperial Doctor, the Queen Mother first showed a surprised expression, and then laughed again, and the whole person seemed to be very surprised, which made everyone at the scene more curious about the diagnosis of the Imperial Doctor.

"The imperial doctor just told the mourning family that the imperial concubine is happy!"

The Queen Mother loudly announced the diagnosis of the imperial doctor to everyone at the scene.
