Chapter 227: Assassination

A few days later, the alliance went very smoothly, and Dongfang Yi didn't have too many opinions, it seemed that because of Gu Xiqian's relationship, even Meng Qijun was very easy to talk to, and the alliance of the three kingdoms seemed to be a sure thing.

Two days later, in order to show his sincerity, Mo Xuanyin personally went to Huzhou again with Gu Xiqian, for Mo Xuanyin, not only to observe Dongfang Yi, but also to ask him for advice on how to govern the country, so that he could better manage Yunnan State.

Gu Xiqian naturally wanted to visit Mingkun, since she didn't see him last time, she was a little uneasy.

However, the queen expressed some worries, not only what impact Gu Xiqian's identity would have on Yunnan Kingdom, but more importantly, the condition of the king of Yunnan seemed to be starting to deteriorate, so at this time, the queen wanted Mo Xuanyin to stay.

"Huang'er, are you really going to Huzhou? The emperor is seriously ill now, you..."

I saw Mo Xuanyin holding the queen's hand, "Queen Mother, don't worry, my father will definitely get better, and with the imperial doctor here, naturally there will be no problem, now that the establishment of diplomatic relations between the three countries is imminent, I should say something, because this is a good opportunity to defeat the South Vietnamese Kingdom." ”

Seeing that he was so excited, the queen didn't say anything, but had to tell Gu Xiqian to take good care of it.

wanted to believe in Gu Xiqian so much in Mo Xuanyin, and the queen had to silently pray that nothing would happen to her.

However, Mo Xuanyin also comforted her, she was only going for a few days, and she would come back as soon as the matter was done, which made the queen feel a little relieved.

Along the way, Gu Xiqian complained a little about Mo Xuanyin, "I still want to play in Huzhou for a while, I am really a little unhappy when you say this." ”

Mo Xuanyin was a little uneasy and said: "Now that my father is seriously ill, if I can accompany him for a while, I will naturally be very happy, but now I still focus on national affairs." After saying that, he went to urge the coachman to hurry up.

Gu Xiqian also understood that she had also experienced the pain of losing her family, and the complaint just now was just a casual remark.

After a few days of travel, the two arrived in Huzhou smoothly, and Dongfang Yi naturally greeted them very warmly.

However, it was obvious that Mo Xuanyin was a little anxious this time, because after they had just arrived in Huzhou, they received a flying pigeon from Yunnan Kingdom, and the king of Yunnan was even more ill.

After Gu Xiqian looked at the letter, he had no choice but to accompany them to discuss the alliance, and basically determined the alliance and the trade exchanges between the two sides, although Dongfang Yi still wanted to fight for a little more benefits for Huzhou, but under Gu Xiqian's persuasion, he had to dispel the idea.

"County Lord, I know you are in a hurry, but you can't let Mo Xuanyin take advantage of me, I still have a lot of people to feed first." Dongfang Yi complained.

"I know, but now that the king of Yunnan is seriously ill, if there is anything, at least something has to be said for a few days, if it affects the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries, it will be more than worth the loss, right?" Gu Xiqian explained.

Dongfang Yi was speechless for a while, but Gu Xiqian was his own head, so he had to agree, in fact, for the conditions, Mo Xuanyin's prescription is really good, and there is nothing to talk about, but the benefits, no one will be too much, right?

At this time, Mingkun came back, and Gu Xiqian just wanted to catch up with him, but Mo Xuanyin was forced to stay overnight because of them.

At night, Gu Xiqian looked at Mo Xuanyin who was outside, and walked over a little embarrassed.

"I'm sorry, because I really want to stay longer." Gu Xiqian said guiltily.

"It's okay, it's just a day, we'll go back early tomorrow morning, you can have a good rest." Mo Xuanyin looked at the moon in the sky and said.

At this time, the moon was broken, as if she was expecting something, which made Mo Xuanyin even more uneasy.

The next day, the two of them left before dawn, just left a letter and left, and even Mo Xuanyin went back non-stop, the journey of a few days was forced to shrink to two days, and even the horses were changed halfway.

Because not long after they set off, Mo Xuanyin received a letter that someone sneaked into the palace while they were not there and assassinated the king of Yunnan.

When he saw it at that time, Mo Xuanyin suddenly crushed the note excitedly and immediately went in the direction of Yunnan Kingdom.

"Father, don't you have anything to do." Along the way, Mo Xuanyin was muttering.

Gu Xiqian on the side was also a little worried, but what made her care about was who would assassinate the king of Yunnan at this time?

Two days later, Mo Xuanyin returned to Yunnan, but it was already too late.

Hearing the news of the death of the king of Yunnan, Mo Xuanyin knelt down weakly, and the non-stop rush in the past two days had already made him physically and mentally exhausted.

However, when he saw the corpse of the King of Yunnan, he fainted even more angrily, because the King of Yunnan had multiple stabbing wounds on his body, and it was really a little terrifying to see the other party so ruthless and the distorted painful expression of the King of Yunnan.

"Someone has passed on the imperial doctor!" Gu Xiqian shouted.

After a while, the imperial doctor walked out with a calm face, "Crown princess, don't worry, the prince is fine, just a little tired, plus he encountered such a thing for a while, some can't accept it, if you rest for a few days, you will naturally be fine." ”

Seeing that Mo Xuanyin was fine, Gu Xiqian was a little relieved, but the death of the King of Yunnan made her a little concerned.

Before Mo Xuanyin woke up, Gu Xiqian began to investigate the matter, and through people's answers, the king of Yunnan was killed in his own bedroom, and at that time, the queen was an eyewitness.

Gu Xiqian was a little puzzled, who deliberately left a living mouth when he started?

After inquiring into the matter, Gu Xiqian finally understood what happened, and on the night when they were about to come back, someone sneaked into the palace and assassinated the king of Yunnan while no one was paying attention, and all of this was seen by the queen.

Since many people's confessions pointed to the queen, Gu Xiqian had no choice but to go to the queen to ask what happened.

However, at this time, the subordinate stopped Gu Xiqian, "Crown Princess, the queen is not feeling well now, so don't disturb her, right?" ”

"Don't worry, I'll just ask a question, and it's only two quarters of an hour." Gu Xiqian said politely.

However, when the person took Gu Xiqian to the queen's bedroom, the scene in front of her stunned her.

The room was in a mess, even the tea set was knocked over to the ground, and the queen on the side shrank in the corner of the wall trembling, still muttering something in her mouth.

Looking at her situation, Gu Xiqian probably understood that the queen was just crazy.

The imperial doctor was called to inquire about the situation, but the imperial doctor's answer was also a little vague.

"Crown princess, the queen is crazy, and she will not recover for a while, plus what she saw was the death of the king of Yunnan, and the death of this kind of relatives is the most devastating." The Imperial Physician explained.

If you wait for the queen to recover, it is estimated that it will take a long time, and this will be quite ignorant for Gu Xiqian.

And since it is an assassin's assassination, then there will be a second time with the first time, and leaving the queen now may be a provocation to yourself.

As soon as she thought of this, Gu Xiqian immediately walked into the room.

I saw that the queen inside saw Gu Xiqian walking in, and she shrank even more, and her eyes widened.

"It's you, don't come here!" The queen said excitedly.

"Queen, it's me, Xiqian, I've come to see you." Gu Xiqian said softly.

However, the queen didn't respond, just pushed Gu Xiqian away and pushed her all the way to the door.

"You go, you go, you murderer, those people must have been sent by you!" The queen said excitedly.

Regarding the queen's reaction, the imperial doctor and the subordinates on the side all looked at Gu Xiqian with strange eyes.

"What the hell is going on?" Gu Xiqian stood at the door and said suspiciously.

At night, Gu Xiqian was alone in the room sorting out the recent events, and the quiet around her at this time made her feel a little unaccustomed.

"It's strange, such a big thing happened, why didn't Liuyun appear?" Gu Xiqian said suspiciously.

At this time, Gu Xiqian came to Liuyun's room and found that she was injured and was applying medicine to her wounds.

"Liuyun, the injury on your body, this is..."Gu Xiqian asked.

"Crown Princess, this is..."Liuyun was a little hesitant, as if he was trying to find a reason to answer.

What didn't make Gu Xiqian curious was why her body was injured and it looked like the wound was still very new.

At this time, Liuyun immediately got dressed and said apologetically: "Crown Princess, it's getting late now, please allow me to rest for a while." ”

Gu Xiqian was a little puzzled, but since Liuyun said so, he had no choice but to leave his room.

The next morning, Liuyun still fetched water and freshened himself, and everything seemed to be normal, except that sometimes Liuyun's expression was a little painful.

"Liuyun, you tell me, where did the wound on this body come from?" Gu Xiqian asked.

Liuyun sighed and had to talk about what happened at that time.

Earlier, when the two of them left Yunnan for Huzhou, Mo Xuanyin specially instructed himself to protect the king of Yunnan so as not to be taken advantage of.

After Liuyun received the order, he naturally stayed near the Yunnan King's Bedroom, and even sometimes asked the imperial doctor about the emperor's situation.

Two days later, when the imperial doctor told Liuyun Yunnan that Wang Yunyun's condition had improved, he was immediately relieved, thinking that Mo Xuanyin would come back in five days, so he was naturally more cautious.

After another two days, Liuyun counted the time, looking at the fact that there were still three days, and it was still safe and sound, which also made her a little relaxed.

However, at this time, a black shadow suddenly climbed over the wall and quietly walked towards the emperor's bedroom.

The other party paid attention to his surroundings and did not rush inside, but avoided the patrolling guards, and continued to move forward after confirming that he was okay.
