Chapter Twenty-Four: The Assassin Emperor

At the end of the year, it is the rule for the ministers to have a big banquet in the palace, and there is a small banquet after the big banquet, and the banquet is for the clan.

Tang Yue was invited by the county lord of Dongyang to be his companion, so he also came to a small banquet.

King Rui and King Li went to their respective concubines' palaces early to say goodbye.

"The son has seen his mother. "King Rui is dressed in a royal robe inlaid with brocade and flowers, wearing a purple and gold crown inlaid with treasures, and a hairpin of auspicious clouds and green jade.

"Get up, have you ever seen the Queen?" asked the Lady.

"I've already met the queen mother. ”

"Yes. Concubine Shu got up, and when she passed by King Rui, she whispered, "And remember that your father and emperor are the most important in everything." ”

King Rui's eyes flickered a few times, and he left with Concubine Shu.

When King Li invited Concubine De, he also got a sentence: "Let's watch a good show today, remember Your Majesty." ”

King Li knew that he was afraid that Concubine Shu was going to make a move.

Everything was well prepared, and it was late in the evening.

The emperor's dragon robe is added, twelve white jade, a round jade on the waist is left in the big red palace silk, and the queen is one step behind beside him, the nine phoenixes on the head are dotted with emerald beads, and the phoenix embroidered with peacock feathers on the body is gorgeous, and the round jade on the waist is left in the green palace silk pressed skirt, and the careful people know that the piece on the emperor's waist is the son and mother jade jue.

After that, it is the concubine, the concubine, the concubine, all in the same color of the black suit, or embroidered peacock, or embroidered peony, eight flowers.

Later, it was King He, King Rui, and King Li who were three adult princes.

Everyone knelt down and bowed, and only after the emperor and empress and several princes and mothers were seated were they able to get up.

"Pass the meal. The emperor said, and Lu Cheng, the chief eunuch beside him, immediately pinched his voice and shouted to pass the meal, and the room was silent, only Lu Cheng's voice was heard endlessly.

Tang Yue sat next to Dongyang, the two of them were both behind, but no one paid too much attention to them, and next to them were the county lords of the clan family, the county lords.

Today's banquet is important, although those county lords and county lords have itchy teeth when they see Tang Yue's eyes, they don't dare to have more rights and wrongs, but if they lose their memories in front of the emperor, the consequences of waiting are not good.

King Fu and Princess Fu also came, and in the lower left corner of the emperor, there was no division between men and women because of the family banquet.

Tang Yue silently calculated the time in her heart, in fact, it was not Dongyang who invited her today, but she pestered Dongyang with her heart, saying that she wanted to see the palace banquet, so Dongyang brought her here.

After a while, Tang Yue saw the dishes coming up one by one, finely pointed, dried fruits, venison soup......

Until the dancer stepped forward, the sound of silk and bamboo started.

"Let's all eat. The emperor spoke, and the queen poured wine and sent it off.

Only then did they all hang their eyebrows to eat, and there were also those who watched beauties sing and dance and listened to music.

"At the beginning of the makeup, the skin is snowy, and the concubines and concubines in the spring hall are lined up.

The sheng flute blows off the water and clouds, and the neon dress sings all over again.

Who is more fragrant in spring? Drunk and dry, the taste is cut.

When you return, you will put on the candlelight red, and wait for the horse's hooves to clear the night moon. ”

The voice of the servant is better than the pear flower, the soft is whiter than the clouds, the candle flame is swaying like the moonlight is gentle, and some people in the current kidnapping case are obsessed with singing, shaking their heads and shaking their heads.

Wine, food, sound, beauty, all of them are hanging with a knife hanging from their heads.

"No wonder some people have long said that the five tones are deafening, the five flavors are refreshing, the five colors are blind, and galloping field hunting makes my heart crazy. The corners of Dongyang's mouth stiffened as he looked at the elders of the clan who looked like wine bags and rice bags, and couldn't help but whisper to Tang Yue.

"On the side of the couch there is no room for others to sleep soundly. Tang Yue said lightly, regardless of whether Dongyang could hear it or not, his eyes were sharp and looking for a target in the crowd.

She remembered that it was this year's banquet, when there was an assassination of a dancing girl, but who was that person?

But he accidentally met the sight of the prince of Pingwang, raised his eyebrows and toasted from afar, drinking alone, the eyebrows were cold and the moon was cold, and the willows were deep and snowy.

didn't bother to pay attention to him, but Tang Yue saw that there was a woman among the dancing girls who was extraordinary.

The bright moon pearl in the ear, the flying fairy bun on the head, the fingers are like cutting the green onion root, the mouth contains Zhu Dan, the slender step is slender, and the subtlety is unparalleled.

The most wonderful body of snow skin and jade skin, looking forward to Shenhui, is rare and similar to the emperor.

She was holding a pair of short swords, not gold or silver, but bronze casting, with flowers and birds outlined on them, tied with five-colored silk, and lined with her delicate red makeup, which was very bright, and was particularly eye-catching among a light green dancer.

With the sound of music, she turned around and walked quickly, the drum beat was urgent, she sword the dragon snake, galloping and jumping, although the sword in her hand was not opened, the momentum was already very!

"Good!" At that moment, the dancing prince applauded and shouted, and his eyebrows were full of rouge.

"Good!"

"Good!"

After the dance, the audience was full of emotion.

The queen smiled and said, "Your Majesty, this dancer really has the demeanor of Aunt Gongsun!"

The emperor smiled and said, "Although I can't witness the sword qi of the Gongsun Auntie of Yangzhou Yiyinglou dancing in all directions, this woman has three or four images. Be rewarded!

"You come forward. The Emperor said, smiling at the Empress.

Tang Yue watched the dancing girl walk towards the high platform step by step, her heart was beating as fast as a drum, her eyes were full of panic, and she couldn't hide it, so she could only forcibly bite her lower lip to control herself from exclaiming.

No, no, you have to wait!

The time has not come.

The girl did come forward and knelt down.

"What's your name?" asked the Queen.

"The slave and maid are only afraid of staining the emperor and the queen. "The voice is also beautiful, quietly like a blooming magnolia, slim and elegant.

"Your Majesty, it's good for me to look at the girl, it's better to forgive her from her sins, release her from the court, and go to the music square. The queen said with a smile, but she didn't see the anger burning in the girl's eyes.

"What's your name?" The emperor felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he didn't know why, he didn't think that this girl was unhappy when he walked in now!

"Hasn't the emperor forgotten the virtuous concubine?" The girl suddenly got up, and her twin swords flew out, straight to the neck of the emperor and queen!

His expression was cold, and he looked at death as if he were at home.

"Come!

The emperor was stunned and at a loss, and Lu Cheng beside him hurriedly shouted, and suddenly he didn't know where the black-clothed man came out of Cong with a sword.

Lu Cheng reacted now, this is premeditated! Immediately and the people next to him escorted the emperor and queen away, and he didn't care which girl was in a hurry, the girl rushed out of the hall in red, and it rained heavily outside, and the wind blew the trees to bend their waists.

Tang Yue led Dongyang as early as the beginning, and ran to the queen's mother's country, but fortunately, today, Princess Hui didn't use the excuse that she was not in good health, otherwise she would have to pull one!

"The sky is above, and the earth is below!"

"The believer is always safe, may I fall into the infernal purgatory forever in my life, and ask the gods and Buddhas to punish the evil and promote the good!"

"I curse all who have killed my mother!"

"Forever in the nightmare!"

"I want you to spend your whole life atonement for my mother!"

The girl stood outside the hall in red and shouted, the rain instantly wet her body, the wind blew behind her thunder, and her hair was messy and flying, like a demon from hell for revenge.

Boom.

Thunder fell from the sky and landed right on the girl's head.

The girl lay on her back on the ground, dead and dead, and the fire suddenly rose and encircled the whole person, still not extinguished in the heavy rain.

At the same time, Tang Yue blocked a sword for the queen and fainted.

The emperor watched as the girl in red was engulfed by thunder and fire in an instant, and the girl, who was not blind, had a smile on the corner of her mouth.

Dongyang looked back and watched the girl overturn in the fire, Concubine Xian, mother, she had also heard the grandmother beside the queen whisper about this public case.

Concubine Xian's surname is Liu, is a rare kind person in this palace, born in a small family, the family is slightly talented, but there is a brother who is quite famous, known as "Baiyi Qingxiang", surnamed Liu Baiyi, likes to fill in the words drunk in white clothes, cursive, piano, the word is three uniques, also known as Liu Sanjue, in the past, he was the champion of high school, but he hated the hypocrisy of officialdom, resigned and did not accept, lingered in the flowers, there was no girl in the willow lane of the flower street who would not know his "Dian Jiang Lips" and "Linjiang Immortal", and he only had a son under his knees, and his body was thin. The virtuous concubine was crowned a concubine because she was pregnant, and the emperor was good at her color and talent, and there was a preference for the young master Liu to enter the palace to accompany the pregnant concubine, and it was this preference that made people jealous.

A spring rain, the road is slippery and mossy and green, the prince of Ping values the talent of the concubine and nephew, and plays together more, but once the prince was pushed into the water and happened to have no maid attendant around him, the little master of the Liu family was invited to fold flowers, no one testified, and the passing palace maid kept saying that it was the little master of the Liu family who pushed the prince into the water!

A thousand mouths are also indefensible.

The queen mother was furious, and the emperor could only punish one or two queens and order her out of the palace.

But no, the injury was too serious, there was no one and no good medicine to die.

Waiting, Liu Baiyi disappeared, and soon Concubine Xian became ill and gave birth to a stillborn baby, and fell out of favor and entered the court.

Listening to the old grandmothers, it was actually not a stillbirth, but it was just breathless, and then there was no more concubine and that doll.

It's just that the palace where Concubine Xian once lived was often haunted, with beautiful sounds and ghostly shadows, which aroused the people in the palace to be secretly in awe.

"It's done?" In the corner of the palace wall, the two of them said something sneakily, the wind and rain were urgent, and the sky was dark, but they couldn't see it clearly.

"It's all done! The clothes are all soaked in tung oil, and the sword is also made of copper, you don't see it, and the thunderstorm will not reduce its fire in an instant!"

"By the way, you remember, these few nights, people have dressed in white clothes and lit candles to hang around in the incense hall of Concubine Xian. ”

"No, take the phosphorus powder, that thing works. ”

"My lord, is that really the daughter of Concubine Xian Niangniang back then? Didn't you mean a dead baby?" trembled, and his tone was almost frightened.

"Why do you care so much? The errands ordered by the masters have been completed?, how can we know about this kind of palace secret?" said the other party and asked the other party to come over, and said in a low voice, "But that girl does look similar to Concubine Xian, and she does have a crescent-shaped birthmark on her arm." ”

"That's a princess!" the owner of the voice was extremely shocked, and his heart beat fast, the crime of murdering the princess was terrible!

"Princess?" the man scoffed, "Has the emperor recognized it? Has the queen mother recognized it? Besides, she is completely dead, who cares who she is?"

"It's just to see who wants the emperor's life. At the time of this sentence, the waist and back are like bamboos, and the wind and rain are not moving.
