Chapter 309: Missing
As she spoke, Empress He motioned to Aunt Qiu to lead the way, and she herself was supported by the palace maid and followed behind unhurriedly, and the people who wanted to come outside couldn't break the palace gate for a while, and they had enough time to evacuate calmly.
Wei Qingqing saw that Empress He's face was calm and calm, and her heart that had been hanging high fell back into place, thinking that the secret room of Kunning Palace was Queen He's hole card, no wonder she was not panicked and calm from the beginning.
Who would have thought that Wei Qingqing's heart had just been put down, but a team of Praetorian Guards suddenly poured out from the depths of Kunning Palace without warning!
Seeing this, Queen He's face changed, and she said, "It's not good! It must be a broken side door for palace people to travel! Fast! Let's retreat to the inner sanctum! ”
"Ahh
Before Empress He's words fell, the screams of the palace maids rang out, followed by the sound of hand-to-hand combat, the sound of the door latch falling to the ground, and the sound of the Praetorian Guards pouring in......
After all, Wei Qingqing and the others were still a step late, and they couldn't retreat to the secret room before the palace gate was broken, and in the end, they only had time to retreat to the inner hall, and they couldn't move a single step!
The Praetorian Guards armed with swords surrounded the people of Kunning Palace led by Empress He, and frightened Mrs. He to the point that her face turned pale, and she blindly complained to Empress He regardless of the current situation, "Niangniang! If you have already thought of a way out, why didn't you take us out earlier? If you had said it earlier, we wouldn't have ended up where we are now! ”
Empress He's face was also very ugly, she calculated that the palace gate of Kunning Palace would not be broken for a while, so she would act without hurrying or slowing, but even if she missed the anti-army, she would also play to attack the west, and break through the side gate silently!
I think their goal from the beginning was to attack from the side gate, otherwise they would not have put the main force at the side gate, so that the person who arranged the gate guard was powerless, and she wouldn't even have time to report to her!
The anti-army acted like this, which made Wei Qingqing and Empress He draw a deference one after another that the anti-army was bound to win against Kunning Palace!
But the palace has always changed, the emperor is the first target to bear the brunt, and the queen is just a dispensable foil, and there is no need to make such a big move...... Why did the rebels have to break through Kunning Palace?
They can surround the Kunning Palace and prevent people from entering and leaving, there is no need to waste troops to forcibly enter!
Just when Wei Qingqing was puzzled, the person who slowly walked in from outside the hall brought her the answer.
As soon as the visitor entered the inner hall, his eyes fell on Empress He, "Does the queen know why the Praetorian Guards must break through Kunning Palace?" ”
"It's you! For Gu Yun, you can actually do this. Empress He replied to the question, raised her eyes slightly to meet the man's gaze, and her tone was light and cold, "Your Zhao family is really infatuated!" ”
"For the sake of Yun'er, I can go up to Dao Mountain and go down to the sea of fire, so I must enter this Kunning Palace." The person who came turned out to be the Nine Emperor Princes.
The Nine Emperor Princes appeared in Kunning Palace with the Praetorian Guards at this moment, which means that there are Nine Emperor Princes among the rebels, and it means that the Nine Emperor Princes have formed an alliance with Wei Lanlan...... Wei Qingqing was hidden in the crowd of palace people and sighed softly.
"What if you break through Kunning Palace?" After Empress He finished speaking, there was another violent cough, and she waited for her breath to gradually stabilize before she continued: "Even if you kill this palace in a rebellious way, Gu Yun will not come back to life." ”
"Even if she doesn't survive, I want to know how she died!" The Nine Emperor Princes looked directly at Empress He with a grim face, as if a layer of chill had frozen the originally warm and jade-like temperament on his body, leaving him with only angular ice cubes left all over his body!
"Sudden death from heart disease." Empress He replied unhurriedly.
"Heart attack?" The Nine Emperor Princes sneered, looking at Empress He's gaze oozing a trace of murderous intent, "Then tell me why she has only been dead for three days, and her heart, liver, lungs, kidneys, stomach and intestines are all gone!" ”
Empress He's face didn't change when she heard this, and even her tone was still faint, "The corpse is not in the Kunning Palace in the main palace, how does the palace know?" Your Highness the Nine, did you ask the wrong person? You should ask the people who hold the spirits! ”
Wei Qingqing was shocked when she heard this, and asked the Nine Emperor Princes in disbelief, "You mean that Miss Gu San's body has been hollowed out?" ”
"Yes!" Seeing that the person who asked the question was Wei Qingqing, the Nine Emperors explained in a soothing tone and carefully: "Although Miss Wei examined Wan'er's body for me that day, I couldn't sleep peacefully for two nights afterwards, and I felt that something was wrong no matter how I thought about it, so I rushed to find an experienced servant before Wan'er's burial, and once again performed an autopsy for Wan'er......"
It turned out that after Gu Yun's sudden death and death, the Nine Emperor Princes had been difficult to accept this fact. He frantically searched for the true cause of Gu Yun's death, and finally disregarded the opposition of others as if he was enchanted, and once again disemboweled.
It was because he found an experienced and well-known puppet that he would cut Gu Yun's corpse again, who would have thought that he would cut open the abdominal cavity this time, and he found that Gu Yun's internal organs were all gone!
The Nine Emperor Princes were furious on the spot, and investigated all the people who had come into contact with the corpses, and the final result was that no one could disembowel, disembowel, and take away her internal organs under the noses of the Nine Emperor Princes!
In other words, Gu Yun's internal organs disappeared by himself, and it is inferred that it is likely that for some reason, the internal organs dissipate and dissolve in the body by themselves, so that the corpse will be opened but the internal organs will not be seen.
This reason is likely to be related to Gu Yun's real cause of death, after all, a person who dies suddenly due to heart disease will never dissolve in the body by itself after death!
From that moment on, the Nine Emperor Princes finally clearly determined that Gu Yun was killed by someone, not a sudden death from a heart attack...... He swore in front of Gu Yun's corpse that he must find out the murderer and pay for Gu Yun's life!
Gu Yun died suddenly in Kunning Palace that day, and Empress He naturally bore the brunt of the key suspicions, and the Nine Emperor Princes have been secretly investigating Empress He since then, and at the same time trying to figure out what to do to make Empress He tell the truth!
Just when the Nine Emperors were full of hatred and wanted to avenge Gu Yun, the Eighth Prince secretly approached him and sent him an opportunity......
It turned out that the Eighth Prince, who suddenly came to power, was the same as the Ninth Prince, who was not taken seriously and was despised and neglected since childhood.
After the eighth prince took power, he tasted the taste of being high and being pandered to and touted, and he never wanted to turn back into the poor prince who was powerless and powerless and had never been looked down upon, and wanted to always have the power in his hands and keep his current status.
But Emperor Wu has always been moody, today he can give you military power and status, and tomorrow he may also take back everything he gave! The Eighth Emperor doesn't want to be beaten back to his original form one day, so he will preemptively attack him to be the emperor himself!
