Chapter 396: We've Been Tricked
"Qingqing, but what happened?" Yun Jin was the person who was most familiar with Xie Qing, and he could see Xie Qing's strangeness at a glance.
Xie Qing smiled lightly and said, "It's nothing, it's just that when I came back, I met Concubine Xie Shu, and she ...... Something is wrong. ”
Yun Jin's eyes changed slightly, "When King Qi returns to Beijing, Concubine Xie Shu will definitely not be able to sit still." If you are really worried, let Chen Yuan check it out. ”
Xie Qing shook his head and said, "No, Chen Yuan's mission is to protect your safety, this hunt is not so simple, I don't want to make trouble." ”
If it was the past, there was no need for Yun Jin to say, Xie Qing had already asked Chen Yuan to investigate. Nothing is as important as Yunjin's safety.
"I'm not worried, I just feel that Concubine Xie doesn't seem to hate me in general." Xie Qing said thoughtfully.
She remembered the way Concubine Xie looked at her, the feeling of hatred to the bone, if her eyes could kill, Concubine Xie was afraid that she would have been killed long ago.
Yun Jin's eyes were slightly deep, pondered for a moment, and said, "We are getting close to King Qi, probably because we are in the way of Concubine Xie Shu's eyes." Qingqing, you have to be more careful. ”
Concubine Xie Shu is a high-ranking concubine in the palace, and she is from a family, if she is really ruthless, I am afraid that it will be really difficult for people to resist.
Xie Qing nodded, smiled and said, "I know." ”
The husband and wife kept warm for a while, and suddenly heard a knock on the door outside, "Princess, Miss Xu came to talk to you." ”
It was Lingzhi's voice, Xie Qing's brows furrowed slightly: "It's Xu Qingyan, the youngest granddaughter of Xu Ge's hometown." ”
Yun Jin's face was displeased: "Why is this little girl so ignorant and disturbing the good things of other couples." ”
Xie Qing's face was slightly red, and he glanced at him with disgust: "What nonsense are you talking about." "What is a good thing to disturb other couples, as if they are doing something shameful in the room, obviously they are just talking.
"This little girl always likes to play with me, maybe it's boring, I'll go out and have a look."
Finally, in Yun Jin's resentful eyes, Xie Qing walked out.
"Princess......" As soon as Lingzhi saw Xie Qing, she hurriedly greeted her, and her face was not good-looking.
Xie Qing put his finger to his mouth and made a shush motion, Lingzhi understood, and swallowed the words that were about to be spoken.
It wasn't until he was far away that Xie Qing asked, "What happened?" ”
She looked serious, although Xu Qingyan was young, she was a person who knew the rules very well, and she would definitely not come to play with her at this time. Just now, she stopped Yun Jin and told Chen Yuan to check on Concubine Xie Shu, but she had already secretly given Lingzhi a look and asked Lingzhi to check.
Lingzhi frowned and replied: "Concubine Shizi, the slave maid went to check on Concubine Xie Shu, but found something else. ”
After a pause, he lowered his voice and said, "Your Majesty has sent a killer to assassinate King Qi in the hunting grounds." ”
Xie Qing's eyes shrank, and he muttered, "Your Majesty, you can't help it?" ”
Even such a thing as assassination was done. However, this method is simple and crude, but if it is done, you can sit back and relax.
"The first emperor only had one son, King Qi, and if King Qi died, there would indeed be no one to fight for the throne again. This method is indeed the simplest and most effective way. Xie Qing's tone was slightly cold.
"Princess, what should we do now?" Lingzhi asked.
"I'll go find Sister Meng, you stay here and don't let the prince know." Xie Qing Zhengse commanded, and then hurriedly ran to find Meng Feiyan.
In vain, Lingzhi stayed in place alone, scratching his ears and cheeks, and wanted to hide it from the world, this is not an easy thing......
When Meng Feiyan heard Xie Qing's words, her face immediately changed: "Is the news accurate?" ”
Such a serious matter, she and King Qi didn't even notice it in the slightest.
Xie Qing shook his head: "The situation is urgent, and I don't have time to think about it, but one thing can be confirmed, there are assassins in the hunting ground." ”
There are not so many coincidences in this world, and judging from the information found by Lingzhi, it can only be confirmed that there are indeed assassins. Just like in the past, Emperor Yongqing sent someone to assassinate her.
Meng Feiyan was anxious, pulled out the long sword next to him, and rushed out with his sword, "Princess Shizi, thank you for telling me, I am going to save Brother Qi." ”
Meng Feiyan is a practitioner, Xie Qing has seen it a long time ago, but even so, Xie Qing still stopped her, "Sister Meng, don't be impulsive, and you can't save people alone." ”
The people sent out by Emperor Yongqing must not be simple assassins, and they have to use Da Nei secret agents to deal with Xie Qing, not to mention that the person to be killed is Zhao Tianqi. Normally, the more you want to kill someone, the more you will pay more attention and be more cautious.
"I know, I will arrange for someone to go with me, I will definitely not let him hurt Brother Qi!" Meng Feiyan said in a deep voice, "Since we entered Beijing, we have long thought that there will be such a day, and he can't attack Brother Qi openly because of his face, so he can only assassinate him behind his back!" ”
Meng Feiyan's tone was full of mockery, a generation of emperors actually used such an unpopular means as assassination.
Suddenly, a flash of light flashed in Xie Qing's mind, and he exclaimed: "It's not good!" ”
Meng Feiyan was taken aback, and hurriedly looked over, only to see Xie Qing pulling her out and running, while saying: "Sister Meng, hurry, bring a few more people, let's hurry up and save people, Your Majesty is in danger." ”
"Your Majesty is in danger?" Meng Feiyan's eyes widened, isn't this a slip of the tongue?
Xie Qing hurriedly said: "If Your Majesty is injured, and the person who did it is King Qi, and then rumors spread, King Qi will not hesitate to attack Your Majesty in order to seize the throne, then do you say that Your Majesty can deal with King Qi openly?" ”
Even if King Qi is the son of the first emperor and the next emperor, but the person sitting on the throne now is Emperor Yongqing, if King Qi assassinates Emperor Yongqing, it will be a murder, what is the crime of killing a monarch? It was enough for Emperor Yongqing to kill King Qi.
And now King Qi's biggest advantage is the edict of the first emperor, with the support of the old ministers in the court, once the king of Qi kills the king, will the old ministers in the court still stand on the side of King Qi?
Meng Feiyan was also shocked, and hurriedly said, "I'll go, Qing'er, don't come with me." She didn't forget that although the Zhennan Wangfu was on King Qi's side, it didn't mean that Xie Qing wanted to risk his life for them.
For a long time, the Zhennan Wangfu supported Zhao Tianqi because of the affection between the king of Zhennan and the first emperor, but it does not mean that this affection can be driven by no limit.
Xie Qing pulled her out and said hurriedly: "Don't worry, there are guards to protect you, and it will be fine." There's no time, let's go. ”
The situation is urgent, and Meng Feiyan can't care about anything else, just bring a few more people and protect Xie Qing.
However, to Xie Qing's surprise, not long after they entered the mountain forest, they were blocked by someone.
A group of black-clothed people descended from the sky, only to see the leader, and roared: "Kill them!" ”
Meng Feiyan protected Xie Qing tightly behind her, carefully protecting her, and never let anyone hurt Xie Qing, Xie Qing is the lifeblood of Yunjin.
Xie Qing's face changed slightly: "Sister Meng, the situation is not right. ”
The number of people in black or their martial arts are obviously above the guards, and seeing the guards fall one by one, they are afraid that they will not last long, and they are afraid that they will die.
It seems that this group of people came specifically to take their lives.
"I've been tricked." Xie Qing's face was very ugly, and he hurriedly said to Meng Feiyan: "Sister Meng, go quickly!" ”
As he spoke, he spilled a handful of medicinal powder in his hand, and then pulled Meng Feiyan and ran away......
It wasn't until they shook off the man in black that the two stopped, and Xie Qing held on to the tree, panting.
"Qing'er, you just said that you were in the middle of the scheme, what's going on?" Meng Feiyan hurriedly asked, she didn't understand what Xie Qing meant by this.
Xie Qing took a deep breath, stabilized his heartbeat, and said, "Sister Meng, it's too late to explain, let's go find King Qi and His Majesty." ”
Meng Feiyan's brows furrowed tightly, that's it, the top priority now is to find Brother Qi.
"Sister Meng, people who practice martial arts have the best ear power, listen carefully, where is the sound of fighting." Xie Qing said.
Meng Feiyan closed her eyes, carefully felt the movement around her, pointed her finger, and said, "There is movement over there." ”
Xie Qing hurriedly walked in the direction she was pointing......
There were more and more corpses on the ground, and seeing the guards fall one by one, Zhao Tianqi's face became colder and colder, and finally the last guard who was guarding Emperor Yongqing was also pierced in the throat.
Only Zhao Tianqi and Emperor Yongqing were left, and the men in black surrounded them.
"Who sent you?" Zhao Tianqi said coldly.
The leader sneered: "His Royal Highness King Qi thinks that he will tell you?" ”
With a wave of his fingers, he coldly spat out a word: "Kill!" ”
The men in black attacked Emperor Yongqing and Zhao Tianqi one after another......
Yikes!
In an instant, Emperor Yongqing's arm was cut open, and a blood mark suddenly appeared on the bright yellow brocade robe.
"Uncle Huang be careful!" Zhao Tianqi shouted, although he wasn't sure who sent this man in black, but one thing he knew very well was that neither he nor Emperor Yongqing could die.
Meng Feiyan and Xie Qing just ran over, "Brother Qi! Meng Feiyan shouted in a low voice, and when she said that, she raised her sword to save Zhao Tianqi.
Xie Qing also rushed forward quickly at the same time, blocking Emperor Yongqing's side, and a handful of red powder spilled out in his hand.
"Ah, my eyes." The man in black who was hit suddenly covered his eyes.
The person next to him saw that his companion was injured, so he raised his sword and slashed it this way, Zhao Tianqi saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly blocked the man's sword. Unexpectedly, he still didn't block it, and the sharp blade cut through Zhao Tianqi's arm, and blood flowed immediately.
"Your Majesty, be careful!" Xie Qing suddenly shouted, and the black-clothed man led by him slashed towards Emperor Yongqing one after another, and Emperor Yongqing couldn't dodge and rolled on the ground several times.
The tip of the sword pointed straight at Emperor Yongqing, and Emperor Yongqing's eyes shrank, and he hurriedly stepped back. The man in black sneered and kicked at Emperor Yongqing......
"Your Majesty!" Not far away is the cliff, and Emperor Yongqing was kicked away and will inevitably fall into the cliff.
Fortunately, Xie Qing was very close to Emperor Yongqing, and she hurriedly grabbed Emperor Yongqing, but the force of the man in black was too strong, Xie Qing couldn't hold it at all, and fell into the cliff with Emperor Yongqing......
