What?

What did the emperor just say?

Xiao Ling looked at the emperor slightly blankly.

The Emperor suddenly asked, "What about the golden lock I gave you?" ”

Xiao Lingwei took out the golden lock from her neck: "The courtiers wear it every day." ”

When the emperor heard this, he was very happy, but his face remained silent, and he said slowly: "Gifts are still exchanged, I gave you a gift, you should also give me a gift."

"Soon after, it will be my Halloween, and you can prepare a birthday gift for me at that time."

It was the first time to see the emperor begging for a birthday gift from others, and the people in the room were shocked, but they didn't dare to show it on their faces.

Old General Yang pushed the stunned Xiao Lingwei.

Xiao Lingwei hurriedly said, "Oh, good, good." ”

The emperor said, "I still have something to say to your grandfather, so go down first." ”

"Yes."

Xiao Lingwei's mind was still in chaos when she withdrew, she didn't understand, why did the emperor let her prepare a birthday gift?

What should she prepare for her birthday?

The emperor sits on the world and lacks nothing, how can his gifts be rare?

Perhaps, just say it casually, as long as you can get by on the big side and don't lose the face of Xiao Mansion and Yang Mansion.

Thinking about it like this, Xiao Lingwei felt much more relaxed and went to the backyard happily.

......

Out of the Yang Mansion, the emperor smiled and said to Wu Sikong: "That little girl, she actually told me that she didn't remember the past, I saw that she was clearly pretending, otherwise how could I ask the golden lock, she took it out."

"She's just a little liar, five years, and she hasn't changed at all."

Wu Sikong laughed with him: "Your Majesty has already made a decision in his heart, but it's just to tease that girl and have fun." ”

"Haha, you still know me, that little girl is really interesting."

"Let's go back to the palace."

So, Wu Sikong ordered to drive back to the palace, but after traveling some distance, the carriage encountered an ambush.

"Escort."

Wu Sikong shouted and flew into the carriage to fend off the arrows flying around.

Arrows rained down on them, and the guards surrounded the carriage, brandished their weapons, and sent them flying.

Some of the arrows that flew out hit the men in black, and as the screams rang out, several of the men in black fell from the upper floors of the shop.

After a rain of arrows, a group of black-clothed men rushed out of the surroundings, carrying swords and rushing towards the carriage.

Suddenly, the Long Wu Army and the man in black fell into a fierce battle.

Wu Sikong held the long sword in his hand, guarding the carriage, as soon as the long sword came out, one sword at a time, those black-clothed people fell to the ground in response, and soon, there were more and more corpses on the ground.

Although some people in the Long Wu Army have fallen, the number of men in black is decreasing sharply, and the situation is very good for the Long Wu Army.

Wu Sikong shouted: "Arrest them all and keep them alive." ”

As a result, the soldiers of the Longwu Army were full of fighting spirit one by one, and quickly surrounded those black-clothed people in the encirclement and captured them.

When the men in black saw that the situation was not good, they bit the poison in their mouths one after another.

Wu Sikong quickly made a move, stopped a man in black in time, and removed his chin.

When he looked at the other men in black, they had all died of poison.

Wu Sikong's face suddenly became gloomy, and he ordered left and right: "Look at it, don't let him die." ”

At this time, General Yang rushed over with people, and when he saw the corpse on the ground, he had a bad premonition in his heart.

He walked to the carriage: "Your Majesty, the minister is late for help, please forgive your Majesty." ”

He suddenly realized that tonight, he seemed to have been saying "Please forgive your majesty."

The emperor lifted the curtain, looked around the surroundings, and ordered: "Take it back to the palace, and I will interrogate it myself." ”

......

The emperor was in a very bad mood, and of course, whoever encountered the assassination would not be in a good mood.

Wu Sikong said: "Your Majesty, the minister has already fed him medicine, and he has no ability to cut himself. ”

The Emperor nodded, and turned to the man in black who was kneeling on the ground: "Who sent you to assassinate me?" ”

The man in black showed a fierce gaze and scolded: "Dog Emperor, if you want to kill or chop as you like, if I frown, I am not a hero." ”

The emperor let out a sneer: "Your mouth is quite hard, I wonder if your bones are so hard?" ”

The emperor gave Wu Sikong a look.

So, Wu Sikong ordered someone to take the man in black down to be tortured.

After a while, a guard walked in with a token in his hand: "Your Majesty, my subordinates have found this on the assassin." ”

Wu Sikong took it and looked at it, his face changed suddenly, he glanced at General Yang, and then held the token in front of the emperor.

When General Yang received Wu Sikong's glance, he chuckled in his heart, and sure enough, the emperor threw the token at his feet: "Yang Aiqing, take a look." ”

As soon as General Yang saw the words on it, his face changed, he picked up the token, and looked at it carefully, it was the token of the Yang Mansion.

The emperor's gloomy voice came: "Yang Aiqing, what do you have to say?" ”

Old General Yang immediately knelt down: "Your Majesty, this is indeed the token of the Yang Mansion, but this person is not from the Yang Mansion."

"The minister has always been loyal to His Majesty, and he will never do such a rebellious thing, please be aware of it."

The Emperor was silent for a moment and asked, "Have you recruited the assassin?" ”

Wu Sikong immediately said, "Go and take a look." ”

After a while, Wu Sikong walked in with a calm face and handed the confession in his hand to the emperor: "Your Majesty, this is the confession of the assassin. ”

He lowered his head and quietly looked at General Yang.

Old General Yang saw his worried eyes, and secretly said in his heart.

The next moment, the emperor angrily threw the confession in front of General Yang: "What else do you have to say?" ”

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly cooled down, and everyone didn't dare to come out.

General Yang picked up the confession and read it carefully, it was written that he was the one behind the scenes, and that the assassin was the secret guard of the Yang Mansion.

His heart sank to the bottom at once, and at the same time he quickly turned his brain to think about how to prove his innocence.

General Yang kowtowed firmly to the emperor, and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, the minister's loyalty to you and the court's loyalty can be learned from heaven and earth.

"Your Majesty has also known what kind of person the minister is for so many years.

"Although the minister is a rough man, he is not a fool, it is impossible to instruct someone to assassinate His Majesty, and put such obvious evidence on the assassin.

"Your Majesty, this is clearly a blame-setting."

The emperor's face was moved, but the next moment, his face became gloomy: "In that case, how do you explain why you just appeared with someone?"

"Do you want to stage a desperate scene to save the driver, so as to ask for a reward?"

Old General Yang knocked down: "Your Majesty, someone shot a letter to the Yang Mansion with a flying arrow, saying that Your Majesty was assassinated."

"The minister was afraid that His Majesty would make a mistake and would not have time to distinguish the truth of the letter, so he set out with someone.

"Fortunately, Lord Sikong protects Your Majesty, and Your Majesty is safe and sound."

He took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and offered it with both hands: "Your Majesty, this is the secret letter received by the minister. ”

Wu Sikong took it and handed it to the emperor.

The emperor opened the note and looked at it, and immediately picked up the cup on the table and smashed it at General Yang: "Okay, you actually dare to bully the king?" ”
