Chapter 507: Blocking the Knife
On the other side, as soon as Huangfu Xue and An Mingchen left, the princess's spies came to report, and the princess got the news and immediately took people to the inn in the south of the city, Xuanyuan Ling was thinking about how to enter the palace at this time, and immediately decided to enter the palace at this time after listening to the princess's report.
"Big brother, the current situation is originally unfavorable to us, and once we enter the palace at this time and are discovered by the Emperor of Northern Chu, we will definitely not be able to escape." "We've been waiting so long," said the princess, "a few more days." β
"This king can't wait." Ziyun didn't know about Nanyue's situation, but he knew that once his father sent someone to get in touch with Beichu and the two conspired to cooperate, he would have no place to turn over, he had been planning for a long time for this day, and he had paid a lot, and he must not fail, and she would not allow failure.
"You go and prepare first, and this king will think about how to enter the palace." Xuanyuan Ling asked the princess to enter the palace on the grounds of looking for An Mingchen, and he dressed up as a guard to follow aside. But Xuanyuan Ling's temperament is too prominent, even if he lowers his head, it is impossible to ignore, and after the two discussed, they finally let Xuanyuan Ling disguise himself as a woman and follow him as a palace maid.
On the way to the palace, the princess was uneasy, and there was too much helplessness and compulsion to get to this point, but if he was asked to choose again, she would still choose this way, life is just a few decades, it is rare to meet such a heart-warming person, and she wants to cherish this rare ...... As for what happened next, she didn't know whether it was because of love and hatred or jealousy...... Or disappointed too many times and starting to go numb yourself.
In the imperial study, An Mingchen left after discussing things with the emperor, the emperor sat in front of the desk and watched the folds, and the father-in-law walked in, "Your Majesty, Princess Nanyue asks to see you." β
What did she come to do? The emperor was puzzled, "Let him in." β
After a while, the princess walked in with Xuanyuan Ling, and after the two saluted the emperor, the emperor smiled and said, "Why did the princess think of entering the palace today." But you were wronged in the Huangfu Mansion and came to me to call the shots for you? "Although the princess got out safely last time, but those rumors can't be easily subsided, the people of the Huangfu Mansion didn't like her in the first place, and now there is such a thing, and the people of the Huangfu Mansion have not driven him out. Those gossips in the house, Huang Fuxue turned a blind eye and ignored it at all,
The princess was angry, but she also knew that it was now a person under the eaves who had to bow her head. The princess had the heart to find someone to complain, but she also knew that Beichu didn't treat her sincerely, so she wanted to help the imperial brother and hoped to return to Nanyue as soon as possible, but the imperial brother's attitude had been ambiguous, which made him slowly suspicious. Before, the imperial brother obviously didn't look in a hurry, what happened today, first he was in a hurry to enter the palace, and now he is ......
When the princess saw that Xuanyuan Ling was about to make a move, she hurriedly grabbed him, stepped forward and said, "Back to the emperor, the courtiers are here to get married, I heard that the husband has entered the palace, and I am in a hurry to find him, so I hurried over, so the emperor smiled." β
"I see." Seeing that he refused to say more, the emperor had no intention of continuing to ask. "Lord An just left from the imperial study, this should be in Zhaoren Palace, and the princess should be able to see it if she is looking for someone in the past." The emperor told him where An Mingchen was, thinking that he would leave immediately, but who knew that the palace maids beside the princess suddenly made a move, and after killing all the palace maids and eunuchs in the imperial study, she gave the emperor a soft muscle.
"Your Majesty, don't come unharmed." A familiar voice came, and the emperor's eyes widened, and he looked at Xuanyuan Ling in disbelief, "It's you." I already knew that you had come to Beichu, but I didn't expect you to enter the palace in such a way. β
"Since the emperor has long known that this king is in Northern Chu, then you should also know the intention of this king to come over today. Your Majesty, how are you thinking about it? β
"It's just a thief." The emperor looked disdainful, a person who sought power and usurped the throne, he did not disdain to conspire with him at all. The princess was a little puzzled at first, but after coming back to her senses and understanding what the emperor meant, the princess's face changed, "Brother Huang, what does the emperor mean by this...... What do you call a rebel and a thief, what have you done, father and mother? What have you done to them? β
"This king's good royal sister, you have seen the warmth and coldness of people in Beichu for so long, why are you still so naΓ―ve. For you, that's your relatives, your everything, but for this king, it's the king's enemy, the source of all pain, and this king can't wait to kill him, and then how can he leave his subordinates. Ziyun, you and I are obviously the children of our father, why do you want to live like a pig and a dog, but you can be like the stars in the sky? β
"Brother Huang, no, my father is just too busy, isn't he really not sorry for Brother Huang......" Ziyun wanted to quibble for King Nanyue, but when she thought about it carefully, she didn't know what to say. Yes, for so many years, my father has always been bad to my brother, she persuaded her, but her mother and father didn't make a sound, and gradually she didn't pay attention to it, if she knew that there would be such a day......
"Why, don't speak, or do you think those explanations are too high-sounding?" Xuanyuan Ling sneered twice, and the knife rested on the emperor's neck, "Your Majesty, what about you, have you thought clearly?" With Bei Chu's current strength, if you forcibly start a war with Nanyue, not only will you not be able to get the slightest advantage, but you will even be ruined, you can think about it. β
"I can only promise you, Nanyue's affairs and Northern Chu will not interfere, Xuanyuan Ling, if you want to take revenge, go to your enemy to come to Northern Chu to do something. Don't think that Bei Chu is not your Nanyue's opponent now, so you will be pressed by Nanyue for the rest of your life. The emperor looked displeased, and at this time, the sound of Lan listening to the rain came from outside the door, and several people in the hall looked towards the door......
"Your Majesty...... The concubine asked to see her when she had something, and asked the emperor to open the door to see the concubine. "Lan Tingyu knelt outside the imperial study, time passed little by little, there was no movement in the imperial study, Huangfu Xue chased after him, and when he saw this, he noticed that something was wrong, 'Xianggong, you just said that the emperor was in the imperial study, but now the door of the imperial study is closed, and there is not a single guard outside the door, isn't it abnormal? β
"Yes, the door of the imperial study is open all year round, and the guards at the door have never left, and now this situation is really wrong......" An Mingchen planned to step forward to check the situation, but after taking two steps and worrying about Huangfu Xue, he turned his head and said, "You go back first, and I'll find someone to inform you of something later." β
"No, I'll wait for you outside, and I can help you if there's anything." Huangfu Xue stubbornly stood aside, An Mingchen had no choice but to respond, An Mingchen came to the gate, several people inside held their breath, as if they were waiting for something, bang, the door was opened from the outside, and then An Mingchen walked in. After seeing the situation in the temple clearly, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"The eldest prince of Nanyue Kingdom has been in Beijing for many days, and I thought it would take some time to appear, but I didn't expect it to be unbearable so soon." An Mingchen walked in. Xuanyuan Ling snorted coldly, "Lord An, no...... Brother-in-law, we are now a family, you tell the emperor, as long as he agrees to the conditions of this king, this king will definitely not treat him badly in the future. β
"Isn't the eldest prince already in control of the Nanyue Palace, and his ascension to the throne as king is just around the corner, why do you have to have the support of Northern Chu." An Mingchen pretended to be stupid, and Xuanyuan Ling was rarely patient, "Naturally, it's for my good sister." Lord An, you are a smart person, if you don't agree, the consequences are not something you can bear. This king advises you, for the sake of Northern Chu, you had better agree to this king's request"
"Is the eldest prince here to discuss cooperation with us, or is he here to inform us? How can you listen to the meaning of the eldest prince today, whether we agree or not, you have to achieve your goal? β
"Lord An is really a smart person, this king likes to talk to smart people, yes, you really have no choice, this king said this, but the world will give you a face, you had better get acquainted, otherwise ......" Xuanyuan Ling snorted coldly, An Mingchen squinted his eyes, and said word by word, "What if we don't agree." β
"No promise?" Xuanyuan Ling's face changed, and he put the knife on the emperor's neck again, An Mingchen took advantage of the gap between him and the knife to shoot quickly, Xuanyuan Ling had already taken precautions, when An Mingchen attacked her, Xuanyuan Ling also began to shoot, several battles, An Mingchen couldn't dodge and was stabbed.
"Xianggong...... Xianggong, are you alright? "The princess was worried when she saw An Mingchen injured." Brother Huang, you should stop it quickly, don't fight. I don't need the imperial brother to avenge me, and Xianggong, all the things have passed before, don't fight......" The two fought extremely fiercely, and after a quarter of an hour, the Ouchi guards rushed in and quickly subdued Xuanyuan Ling. Huangfu Xue helped Lan Tingyu and ran in.
"Xianggong, how are you?" I saw that An Mingchen had been dyed red with blood, standing aside with a knife, and he didn't even notice that Huangfu Xue had passed. Before the effect of the medicine on the emperor's body dissipated, the imperial doctor came in and helped the two to the stool next to them. An Mingchen's injury looked at his eyes, but the injury was not deep, and when the imperial doctor bandaged him, Huangfu Xue wiped a handful of tears and pulled her hand, "You scared me just now." Good thing you're okay. β
"Fool, I still have to accompany our children to grow up, naturally it will be fine." An Mingchen comforted her, and then glanced at Xuanyuan Ling, "The news that you controlled King Nanyue and wanted to establish yourself as the king has long been spread, even if you can leave the palace alive today, it will be difficult for you to return to Nanyue safely." β
"That's the king's business, where do you have less false mercy." Xuanyuan Ling snorted coldly, he became a king and lost a king, he admitted that he lost today, but he wanted him to pay the price for it, don't think about it.
Seeing this, An Mingchen didn't say anything, and pulled Huang Fuxue to stand up, but Huang Fuxue hurriedly stopped, "You still have injuries on your body, don't be in a hurry to get up." β
"I'm fine." An Mingchen clapped his hand and stood up again, "It's not early, let's go back." "The matter here has been settled, and there is no need for her to stay. Huangfu Xue was also frightened just now, and when she heard this, she nodded hurriedly, "Okay, let's go home." β
"Xianggong ......" The princess wanted to leave with An Mingchen, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she saw Xuanyuan Ling take out a dagger and stab at An Mingchen, the princess didn't have time to think about it, rushed over, blocked in front of An Mingchen, and slashed the knife in his crotch.
"Princess ......"
