Shen Yunzhen was slightly shocked, and a layer of dense fog suddenly rose in his heart. She was a little speechless, and her heart suddenly tugged again, causing a violent cough. She coughed up blood again, blood splattered on his glowing blade, and a fishy-sweet breath came over her face.

"You ......," she looked at Nan Yinglin in a daze.

"Baoxiang Temple to Qi Palace, you can go back and forth in one day, he hasn't come back yet, don't you think it's strange?" Nan Yinglin proudly hooked the corners of his lips, lowered his voice, and said word by word: "He's dead." ”

"Impossible!" She blurted out.

There was a hot pain in her chest, and her wheezing was accompanied by violent ups and downs, and she tried her best to hold her chest and said, "You're lying to me." ”

Her heart panicked all day, and Yuan'er cried like that. From this point of view, I am afraid that it is because of my heart with him that I perceive all kinds of bad omens.

"I lied to you?" Nan Yinglin glanced at him and said with a smile: "He fell off the cliff, the cliff is bottomless, and there is a turbulent river below, do you think that if you fall down from there, you can still live?" ”

Nan Yinglin raised his hand, and the sword fell to the ground. His body leaned forward, and a pair of iron tong-like hands suddenly grabbed Shen Yunzhen's arms. His lips were about to be kissed down, but Shen Yun really pressed against his jaw and avoided his face.

His jaw rested on the palm of her hand, his face squeezed out of the folds by the force.

"Godmother!" She shouted.

But there was silence in the courtyard.

Nan Yinglin sneered, slowly stood up and smoothed out the folds on her clothes, lifted the sword again, grabbed Shen Yunzhen's arm, and dragged her out of the palace gate. He threw her arm outward, twisting her so hard that she couldn't move, and the blade of the long sword slapped twice on her face.

Liu February, Xiao Shunzi, Qingluo, and Ah Ruo have all been tied with strong knots, with thick hemp ropes in their mouths. I couldn't speak, I could only whimper at her.

The people in the courtyard were all dressed in black, with a silver and shining steel sheep's head belt, holding steel knives and staleming with the palace guards.

Nan Yinglin's subordinates took hostages, and the internal guards were afraid that they would really hurt people by jumping over the wall in a hurry, so they only blocked the palace gate and did not come in. The palace lantern blew by the night wind, the flames were shaking and shaking, and the light and shadow flickered and dimmed, just like the mood of the guard at the moment.

"King Xin, don't be wrong again and again. If you hurt Concubine Chen and the prince, the emperor will never let you go. He said.

Nan Yinglin stared at the guard captain fiercely, and pointed with the blade of his sword: "This king knows that you are the guard captain in the palace, and the loyal lackey of Nan Jingpei." He snorted disdainfully: "But you have a wrong sentence, the emperor is dead, even if this king kills this slut today, he can't help this king." ”

As soon as the guards heard that the emperor was dead, they couldn't help but take a step back.

Wei Wei saw that his subordinates were so flustered, so he said: "The emperor prays for blessings in Baohua Mountain, and with the protection of the inner guard brothers, there will be nothing at all." Believe that the king is a traitor, lest the world be chaotic, brothers, don't believe his nonsense! ”

"Really?" He sneered, pinched out a piece of dragon pendant from between his belt with two fingers, and gently threw it in front of Liu Eryue: "You tell them, is this the emperor's jade pendant?" ”

This jade pendant was later picked up by Wu Bei on the mountain road, and it must have been accidentally lost by the emperor when he was fighting with them.

Liu February's recognition of the jade pendant, it was the emperor's close belongings, and the Yingluo below was made for him by Shen Yunzhen himself, so he couldn't be wrong. It seems that something really happened to the emperor.

Liu Eryue stared at Shen Yunzhen, and her eyes suddenly turned red. Shen Yunzhen was also desperate, but she held back her tears, she didn't want to show her fragile side in front of King Xin.

Seeing that Liu Eryue was silent, Wei Wei also had seven or eight points in his heart, and waved his sword and said: "Brothers, it must be King Xin who assassinated the emperor, let's kill King Xin to avenge the emperor!" ”

The inner guard is about to rush up.

Nan Yinglin was not in a hurry, pulled Shen Yunzhen to her side, put a sword across her throat, and shouted: "Who dares?" ”

Then a man in black came out with the baby in his arms, and he was clumsy, and the baby in his arms kept crying.

"Yuan'er!" Shen Yun really struggled to hold the child.

Nan Yinglin grabbed her throat and shouted, "Don't move! Otherwise I'll fall him to death! ”

The man in black really held Cheng Yuan high above his head: "Your Highness, give the order?" ”

The child cried louder and louder, thinking that he was very scared, and tried his best to cry. Crying made Shen Yun really heartbroken, it was her and the emperor's treasure, Nan Jingpei's love like a treasure's own flesh and blood, and now she was so abused by King Xin. Nan Yinglin almost doesn't treat Yuan'er as a person, only treats the child as a small object, and can decide his life and death at will.

"Don't!" Shen Yunzhen's tears burst out of her eyes, she was so panicked that her body became weak, and she grabbed Nan Yinglin's clothes: "I beg you, don't hurt Yuan'er, I beg you!" ”

"Concubine Chen's mother is quite acquainted." He said and sneered: "It's a pity that the woman of Nanjing Pei is not even as good as a dog in the heart of this king." His father is dead, so it is better to let him and Nan Jingpei have a companion on Huangquan Road. ”

"Leopard, don't do it yet!" He said.

"Don't!" Shen Yun was so frightened that her feet were weak, and her voice was hoarse.

"Stop!"

Suddenly, I heard a broken cry at the palace gate, and the internal guard made a way, and an old man wearing a flat gold and black color belt with gold silk and jade belt walked into the palace gate. His pace is not slow, revealing a calm and sophisticated bearing. He was so calm and composed, the obsidian forbidden step hanging on his waist was slightly raised, but the beads of his falling feet never collided.

"Changxin Hou? What are you doing here? Nan Yinglin looked at him in a daze.

Changxin Hou can enter the palace at this time, there must be something strange, but Shen Yunzhen can't care so much, he is the emperor's grandfather, that is, Chengyuan's maternal great-grandfather. For now, she can only ask Chang Xinhou for help.

"Changxin Hou, please save Yuan'er, he is the emperor's own flesh and blood, I beg you!"

Nan Yinglin saw that Shen Yunzhen turned his head and asked Chang Xinhou for help, for fear that Chang Xinhou would be moved by compassion for a while. Hurriedly pulled Shen Yunzhen hard, and shouted in a low voice: "Shut up!" ”

Chang Xinhou took out a yellow silk from his sleeve and shook it open in his hand, revealing the two words of holy decree.

"King Shin wants, but such a thing?" He asked.

Everyone knows that the first emperor once rewarded the Marquis of Changxin with a blank decree stamped with a large seal, but he has never seen it.

According to the Emperor's Records, there was a palace change during the period of the first emperor, and the Marquis of Changxin at that time held the capital to defend the forbidden army. did not wait for the first emperor to issue an edict, and ran to the king of Qin to protect him, so that the first emperor could save the day. The first emperor thanked him for his loyalty, and praised him for his courage to obey power in a hurry, so he rewarded him with this blank holy decree at the celebration banquet.

Chang Xinhou has always been low-key, never mentioning this matter to anyone, even if someone asked, he only lied that he didn't. Today he took out this holy decree, and everyone in this palace looked at him with wide eyes.

Nan Yinglin swallowed his saliva, and heard the Marquis of Changxin read: "Fengtian carries the emperor's edict and says, I will succeed to the unification, but the heirs under my knees are thin, only one son inherits the yuan, and the mother and son are young and endanger the society, and they cannot inherit the throne." My younger brother Yinglin, young and promising, quite the style of the first emperor, I love him deeply. After the collapse, King Yinglin should be the emperor. Chin this. ”

"Bring it!" As soon as he stretched out his hand, he pushed Shen Yunzhen aside.

Chang Xinhou immediately took out the fire fold again, and with a light blow, a fire ignited: "Please let the king release Concubine Chen's mother and son first, as well as the emperor's other concubines." Seeing that Nan Yinglin was a little hesitant, he put the fire fold under the holy decree: "If the king does not agree, the old minister will immediately burn this holy decree." ”

The king also knew his grandfather's temper, and was afraid that he would really burn the holy decree in a fit of rage. He turned his head and glanced at the man in black, who put the child down again.

"Bring it!" Nan Yinglin walked to Changxinhou's side to grab the holy decree, but Changxinhou flashed, making King Xinwang pounce.

"What do you mean by that?" Nan Yinglin stared at him indignantly: "Do you want to repent? ”

"If the king of faith swears not to hurt a single hair of the emperor's heir, the old minister will hand over the holy decree to the king of faith."

"You!" Nan Yinglin's eyes almost burst into flames, but Chang Xinhou refused to back down a single step, he was helpless, he only took two steps back, and raised three fingers to the sky: "Nan Yinglin swears to the sky that after succeeding to the throne, he will not hurt a single hair of the emperor's heir Nan Chengyuan." ”

"If you break this oath, you will die by the arrows." Chang Xinhou added.

"Good!" Nan Yinglin gritted his teeth: "If you violate this oath, you will die under the arrows." ”

He finally received the holy decree, and his eyes shone brightly, like the eyes of a fox in the night. He is the emperor, he is finally the emperor of this Great Qi! He looked at Chang Xinhou happily: "Grandfather, after Yinglin ascends the throne, he will never treat you badly." ”

Changxin Hou glanced at him, walked straight to Shen Yunzhen's side, he slowly squatted down, and said, "Concubine Chen is frightened. ”

He took out a green jade gourd bottle from his purse, poured out two pills the size of jujube kernels and handed them to Shen Yunzhen.

She stared at Chang Xinhou: "This is?" ”

He avoided answering, grabbed Shen Yunzhen's neck, and forced her to swallow the medicine.

But a burst of coolness spread from his throat and gradually seeped into his chest, as if extinguishing the hot fire in his chest. She suddenly vomited a few mouthfuls of black blood, vomiting so dark that she felt that her body was much lighter after vomiting.

Probing the pulse, she actually has the appearance of anti-poisoning.

She looked at him in amazement: "It's you!" Did you poison me and deliberately lead the emperor to Baoxiang Temple? ”

Changxin Hou slowly lowered his head: "The old minister didn't expect this to be the result. ”

She suddenly pulled the placket of Changxinhou's clothes: "You! You are the emperor's own grandfather, how can you do such a thing to him!? ”

Changxin Hou seemed to have aged a lot in an instant, and he felt a little unpredictable when he got on the thief ship. She threw her hand away in hatred, not looking at him. I heard Changxinhou's extremely deep voice again: "The old minister will try his best to protect his mother and son." ”

The sky is getting brighter, and the white marble sundial in the courtyard has been pointed at the fourth and second quarters. The courtyard was already able to see people's faces, but the lights were fading and losing their original function.

Nan Yinglin stood proudly in the courtyard, his expression was very brisk, or rather, he had never lived to this age, and he had never been so happy as he was today.

"Grandpa, let's go." He said.
