Chapter 293: Assassination

After listening to the words of the six princes, Concubine Ru slowly closed her eyes, pondered for a while, and said: "After all, mother is just a woman's family, and her knowledge is not as shallow as you can see the long-term. Mother just doesn't know that you have been hurt so much, and I feel a little distressed when I see it, you can do whatever you want, and your mother will always support you. ”

Zhang Youtao looked at the atmosphere in the room and said, "If Concubine Niangniang sees that the wounds on the six princes are a little uncomfortable, I can make some soothing ointment to remove the scars on his body." ”

I saw the emperor wave his hand and said, "Miss Tao'er doesn't mind the scars on the six emperors?" ”

Zhang Youtao smiled and said: "Of course I don't mind, in my eyes, no matter what the sixth prince becomes, his appearance in my heart will still not change." ”

"Okay, I'm relieved to have your words, I want to keep the scars on the six emperors' bodies and always be vigilant."

The next day, the emperor personally drafted an edict on the guilt. The general content of it is: Although he treats the country and political affairs diligently and dedicatedly, he does his best, but he has not fulfilled his responsibilities as a husband and father for the concubines and princes of the harem, because of his dereliction of duty as a father and husband, so that the concubines and princes and princesses of the harem have suffered a lot of grievances, especially for the concubines and the six princes and the mother and son of the concubines, although the concubines and the six princes did not resent themselves because of their dereliction of duty, but they are still ashamed, and I hope that the men of the world will take me as a warning, We must fulfill our fatherly responsibilities to our wives and concubines and children, we must treat each child equally, and we must remember the saying that fathers are kind and filial to their sons.

As soon as this crime has been edicted, many courtiers were deeply moved, and the people were even more emotional, they felt that they should learn from the emperor not to treat every child harshly, of course, the courtiers also understood that the emperor's move was a signal that he wanted to set up the six princes as the crown prince, and he was even more happy to see it, because the reputation of the six princes was very good.

Soon the national funeral was over, all the white cloths and white flowers in the palace were removed, and everyone also took a breath because of the end of the national funeral...... Empress.

Although the emperor has been staying in her palace after the edict has been issued, she is tight-lipped about the matter of sealing her as the emperor, so how can she not be surprised and afraid, although she is very worried in her heart, but she does not dare to bear the charge of disobeying the decree, so she still gritted her teeth and received the seal of the queen, and the emperor decided to give all the concubines a reward celebration to let the entire harem celebrate and dispel the long-term dull atmosphere in the palace.

When the news reached the palace of the Six Emperors, the Six Princes' faces were pale, and his heart was as bad as if he had knocked over the five-flavor bottle, and he understood that the emperor was obviously hinting that he was going to make him the crown prince.

Looking at his face, Zhang Youtao patted him on the back and said, "If you come, you will be safe, and what should come will always come, and you can't escape if you want to." The sixth prince looked at Zhang Youtao and nodded heavily.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the reward ceremony, Zhang Youtao and the six princes got up very early, planning to participate in the reward ceremony of the concubines and concubines of the palace, but I don't know why Zhang Youtao kept jumping on her right eyelid at a glance in the morning, and a bad feeling came to her heart.

The reward ceremony is set in the palace, which is a special palace for happy events in the palace, Zhang Youtao and the six princes went in and found that the palace was festive and grand, all the concubines were wearing gorgeous clothes and headdresses and wearing exquisite palace makeup to sit in their positions waiting for the emperor and the queen mother to come, all the princes and princesses were dressed in new clothes and sat on the back seat of the concubines.

The hall was full of people, very lively, the six princes and Zhang Youtao came in politely to the concubines of the harem, and then sat in their own position, after he sat down, his eyes fell on the body of the concubine, the six princes sat behind the concubine Niangniang can only see his mother's back, although it is the back, he still feels the mother's faint sorrow.

Zhang Youtao didn't have time to stare at Concubine Runiang, since she got up in the morning and felt that something was very wrong, she looked at everything in the palace with vigilance.

"Sixth Emperor Brother, why did you come?"

A crisp voice came into the ears of the six princes and Zhang Youtao. They looked at a young girl of sixteen or seventeen, dressed in fine hair and talking to them.

As soon as the Sixth Emperor saw her, he immediately laughed: "It turned out to be the Eighth Emperor Sister, you came early enough, come over and meet your future Sixth Emperor Sister-in-law." ”

When Zhang Youtao heard that it was the eighth princess, the sister of the Sixth Emperor, she quickly got up and saluted: "The courtier has seen the eighth princess." ”

"Oh, you are always so polite in the future Sixth Emperor Sister-in-law, I still have to salute you when you and the Sixth Emperor Brother get married in the future, it's a lot of trouble to come and go like this, otherwise none of us should salute anyone, okay?"

The eighth princess said as she helped Zhang Youtao up. It seems that this eighth princess is also a straightforward character, and it should be easier to get along with her in the future.

"The heroic deeds of the six imperial sisters-in-law have spread throughout the harem, I really admire you, in my heart you are a hero of the country, in the future, the sixth imperial sister-in-law and the imperial brother will get married, I will go to you every day to study with you, and strive to be a person like the sixth imperial sister-in-law."

The sixth prince deliberately pursed his lips after listening to the words of the eighth princess and said: "Eighth Emperor Sister, why are you closer to Tao'er than when you see me, I now suspect that you are not my sister but her sister." ”

"It would be better if I could be Sister Tao'er's sister, Sister Tao'er will definitely take me with me in everything, unlike you who don't take me to play with anything." The eighth princess raised her head arrogantly and glared at the sixth prince and said.

The Sixth Prince and Zhang Youtao couldn't help but laugh when they heard this. At this time, the Queen Mother and the Emperor arrived, and the lively hall was quiet all of a sudden, and everyone saluted the Queen Mother and the Emperor.

The emperor because of this period of recuperation, the body is recovering well, the queen mother looks red, after the queen mother and the emperor said a few polite words, it was announced that the reward ceremony officially began, when the soft music sounded, Zhang Youtao has always felt that the feeling that something is wrong in her heart is getting stronger and stronger, she fell on the body of the concubine, and touched the silver needle hidden weapon in her hand.

Under the promise of Gonggong Hu, a palace maid slowly walked towards Concubine Ru with a tray with a phoenix crown and a phoenix robe, Zhang Youtao narrowed her good-looking eyes and stared closely at the palace maid holding a tray, this palace maid's face looked strange, but there was always a particularly familiar feeling when looking at the figure, and she always felt that she had seen it somewhere.

When the palace maid walked to the vicinity of the concubine, Zhang Youtao suddenly felt a silver light flashing under the tray, and she didn't have time to carefully watch the silver needle in her hand and flew out, only to see that this small silver needle happened to fall on the palace maid's tiger's mouth, and the palace maid suddenly felt a sore wrist, and the tray in her hand fell to the ground, and the phoenix crown and phoenix robe rolled down from the tray.

Everyone was taken aback when they saw this situation, Zhang Youtao quickly ran to the vicinity of the palace maid and grabbed her wrist with the middle needle, and searched out a cold dagger from the sleeve robe in this hand, everyone was surprised to see this dagger, Zhang Youtao grabbed it lightly with her hand, and a human-skin-mask was caught, it turned out that this palace maid was the green screen next to the queen.

The green screen was paralyzed and unable to move because of Zhang Youtao's hidden weapon stained with anesthetics. She raised her head and glared at Zhang Youtao with unwilling eyes.

"Bold, where did you come from, how dare you assassinate Rufei!" The emperor was so angry that he trembled and pointed to the green screen and said.

"Back to the Queen Mother and the Emperor, I know this palace maid, she is the personal maid of the former queen's side, the green screen." Zhang Youtao looked at the emperor and said.

"No wonder she assassinated Concubine Ru, it turned out that she was the person next to the queen!" The frightened Queen Mother came to her senses!

Seeing this, the sixth prince also hurriedly ran over, he pointed his finger at the green screen and roared: "My mother has no grievances with you, why do you want to harm her." ”

He had palpitations when he thought about it, if Zhang Youtao hadn't made a timely move, the consequences would have been unimaginable, and he blamed himself for relaxing his vigilance because of the peace for this period of time, it seems that this palace is full of crises!

The green screen is very calm: "The queen is our master, even if she dies, no one can sit in her place, if someone sits in her place, I would rather risk my own life to kill her, since I failed today, I didn't think about going back alive, I am worthy of my master." As soon as she gritted her teeth, a stream of black blood flowed out of her mouth, and she slowly fell to the ground without breath.

All the people in the harem were shocked when they saw such a scene, and Father-in-law Hu hurriedly asked someone to carry out the corpse of the green screen, and asked several fathers-in-law to wipe the blood stains clean, although the cleaned hall was as if nothing had happened, but the atmosphere was completely different.

Concubine Ru was even more frightened, her face turned pale, she knelt on the ground and said to the emperor and the queen mother: "Queen Mother, Emperor, what happened today makes the concubines really frightened, it may be that the concubines' blessings are too thin to support the queen's position, otherwise the matter of sealing the queen should be postponed!" ”

"Alas, this matter also complained that the family was soft-hearted for a while, and felt that the queen and the prince were dead, and it was not easy for the people around them to serve by their side for many years, so the mourning family did not kill them all, I didn't expect them to be so bold, it seems that I can no longer be merciful to them, come on, arrest all the palace maids and eunuchs who have served the queen and the prince, and then deal with them as appropriate after the reward ceremony. Rufei, don't be afraid, there is a mourning family and the emperor who will definitely not let you be so frightened again! ”
