Chapter 286: Bad intentions

"The prince is really like a god, how did you know that I would be here?"

When the crown prince heard Mu Qingyan's words, he stepped forward and said, "This prince happened to meet a little eunuch on the palace corridor, and he said that the four imperial aunts were in danger, so he hurriedly recruited the Praetorian Guards to rescue the four imperial aunts. Luckily, it came just in time!"

Mu Qingyan swept over Prince Junyuan's gentle face with a cold gaze, and said coldly: "The prince is too powerful, and he knows that this person is a dangerous person before he arrives." ”

"This person has an ugly face, and at a glance he knows that he is not a good person, isn't the Fourth Emperor Aunt confused by this demon?" said the crown prince Junyuan gently.

Mu Qingyan straightened up from the dead Mama Li and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seems to know very well who this old woman in front of him is? Otherwise, how could he say that she is a demon and a person who can hurt people?"

Hearing this, the crown prince's face did not change, and the corners of his mouth still raised a faint warm smile, and said: "The fourth imperial aunt misunderstood, this prince is just taking precautions, and besides, this prince has never seen such an old woman exist in the palace, and it is the most correct thing to let people kill her first." What's more, at that time, she was so close to the Four Emperor Aunts, and the crown prince couldn't afford to take responsibility for the Fourth Imperial Aunt's injury. Could it be that Prince Ben is wrong to do this?"

Mu Qingyan listened, was silent, and quietly looked at the crown prince Junyuan, and only spoke after a long time.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you are very good!"

"What are you doing here?"

Silent yard.

Suddenly, a voice sounded colder than ice.

At this moment, Prince Junyuan's face changed rapidly.

As soon as the words fell, King's Landing had already arrived in front of everyone, and the Praetorian Guards on both sides involuntarily tensed their bodies whenever King's Landing passed by.

Facing the four princes who were already standing beside the crown prince, looking at his cold and stern face, and receiving the cold sweeping eyes, he couldn't help but weaken his feet.

The Praetorian Guards all had frightened words written on their faces, and they were muttering in their hearts: Ouch mom, it's so annoying, who is this who upset the fourth prince?

Jun Lin walked quickly to Mu Qingyan's side with a calm face, his eyes swept over her whole body to make sure that she was okay, and then said, "I said it for a while, but I didn't come back for so long." Now, go back with this king!"

When it was over, he directly took Mu Qingyan to the Jinluan Palace, leaving a group of stunned people.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, what should I do with this corpse?"

When, after the Four Princes took the Four Princesses Mu Qingyan away, the leader of the Praetorian Guard walked up to the prince and asked softly.

When the crown prince heard this, he just said gently: "Deal with it as you want!" After speaking, he also raised his feet and walked in the direction of the Four Princes' Landing.

It's just that no one saw him, and when he turned to leave, at that moment, his eyes flashed like a knife.

Mu Qingyan and King's Landing walked side by side.

"How did you know you came here to find me?"

King's Landing didn't even look at Mu Qingyan, and said lightly: "It's not so safe in the palace, do you think this king will rest assured that you will wander around?"

Hearing this, Mu Qingyan raised her eyebrows and said, "Do you know about that Mama Li?"

"I just knew!" King's Landing said, pausing, and continuing: "This king remembers that she is the nurse next to Li Xi, but she was also a handsome person back then, at what age. Even if more than ten years have passed, she will not become what she is today, and this king did not expect that she would be able to hide in the palace. No, back then, the Queen Mother said that she had died with Concubine Xi. ”

"She followed me before she died, Li Xi was given a nemetic medicine by the Queen Mother, is this true?"

When, when Mu Qingyan asked this question, it happened that the two of them appeared outside the door of the Jinluan Palace.

King's Landing pursed her thin lips when she heard this, and a deep understanding flashed under her cold eyes.

This kind of situation makes people think that the two of them are quarrelling......

Seeing this, the civil and military officials couldn't help whispering.

"Look, the face of the fourth prince is ugly, is it that the fourth princess has made the fourth prince angry again......"

"The fourth prince looks in a bad mood, you say, the fourth prince shouldn't want to strangle the fourth princess here, right?"

“......”

Junlin looked at Mu Qingyan for a long time before leaning over and holding her in his arms, walking towards the hall step by step, and said in a low voice: "What she said is true, presumably, she also told you." Your mother also has this medicine in her body, but it is said that it will be carried over to the mother's womb, and one in a hundred has been studying how to get rid of this toxin. ”

Mu Qingyan remembered that when he first saw one in a hundred, he checked her pulse and remembered his eyes......

"It turns out that you already knew, why didn't you say it?" she looked up at him, holding back the anger in her heart.

Without waiting for King's Landing to answer, Mu Qingyan spoke again: "I always thought that the cold in my body just made me afraid of the cold, but I didn't expect it to have such an effect. Are you afraid that I will know and do something to her?"

Seeing that her expression was very serious, King's Landing became even more solemn, and said: "No, she is also the enemy of this king, how can this king defend her." This king just doesn't want to startle the snake, and besides, one in a hundred miles has already been taken over from the old valley master of the Medicine King Valley, and there has been no breakthrough and no way to detoxify it so far. This king has not killed her immediately just to find the antidote!"

"That's weird, I was the one who poisoned, and in the beginning, you tried to kill me. Mu Qingyan said: "So, count it, you didn't kill her for me." Could it be that the poison on your body is also caused by her?"

King's Landing almost thought that she was going to pursue something, but she didn't expect her to come to such a question.

After arriving at the seat in front of the hall and putting Mu Qingyan down, King's Landing said seriously: "She has poisoned this king!"

Mu Qingyan sat down and said in a low voice: "That is to say, if you are not single, she has poisoned you, how unpopular are you?"

King's Landing glanced at her, as if to say, you can say that, too?

Mu Qingyan naturally understood, and couldn't help replying, saying: "I brought it in the mother's womb, your estimate is brought after the mother's womb, the long side is swaggering, and the behavior is so ostentatious, saying that not many people want to poison you, and no one really believes it when you say it!"

Hearing this, King's Landing glanced at her, and then, leaning into her ear, raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Speaking of swagger, this king is not as swaggering as you!"

Mu Qingyan listened and replied with a smile: "Lord Wang, everyone else is watching!"

This one, with a suggestive voice, didn't know that the two of them thought they were flirting.

However, King's Landing was really made by her voice, but he could only suppress the urge to correct this little goblin and sit down with a cold face.

Mu Qingyan looked at his cold face and smiled proudly.

And the other people who saw it couldn't help but tremble with fright, trying to stay away from this couple who looked like heaven and earth.

Hundreds of civil and military officials, royal family relatives, princes and generals, and officials above the second rank all sit in front of the palace, and the rest of the officials below the second rank sit down on both sides.

The Emperor sits in a high position, the Queen Mother, the Empress is in a lower position than the Emperor, King's Landing sits in the first position on the Emperor's right hand, and the Crown Prince sits in the first position on the left.

At the beginning of the banquet, the emperor took the first glass of wine and drank it, the civil and military officials congratulated, the sheng flute silk and bamboo music, the music rang out in unison, and the palace maids danced.

In an instant, I pushed the cup and changed the lamp, and I was drunk with gold.

Mu Qingyan couldn't help but squint her eyes when she saw the laughter in the hall, and looked at the queen mother and queen who were in high positions.

The queen's makeup and court dress are impeccable, graceful and luxurious, showing the style of the mother of a country.

However, the Queen Mother has an ordinary face, but the powder on the face of the Queen Mother today seems to be a little thicker, so that she can't see the color on her face clearly.

Although the Queen Mother was smiling and watching dance music, the more she pretended to be indifferent, it seemed extraordinarily abnormal at the moment.

Mu Qingyan quietly picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine gently......

The taste is not right!

She opened the lid of the flask with a dark face and saw that it was sour plum soup inside.

This man with a small belly!

King's Landing on the side naturally saw her whole process in his eyes, and looked at Mu Qingyan's condemning gaze, but he just pretended not to see it.

Spring ploughing sacrifice, how can there be no spring fairies.

At this moment, the joy of silk and bamboo was even louder and joyful, and the fairies who sowed seeds came on the field one after another, and the light yarn was long and holding flowers, and the flowers were scattered from their hands, coming from both sides......

However, Mu Qingyan looked at a group of women from the bottom up, came to King's Landing, and asked quietly, "These are spring ploughing fairies played by palace maids, do you want to constantly sprinkle flowers on everyone present?"

King's Landing replied lightly: "Well, this is the blessing behavior of the Daduan Dynasty all along, and later, there will be a leading dancer pretending to be a fairy who will offer rice and grains to the emperor, which means a good harvest in a year." ”

When Mu Qingyan heard this, she nodded absentmindedly, but said in her heart: If this can be smooth, do you still need people's efforts?

People are really a hanging sample, always thinking about getting something for nothing, who asks for the sky, and the sky follows the will of the person who asks for rain and wind?

This thing is too illusory, fortunately, it is just a custom, and the emperor does not particularly respect this superstition, otherwise, sooner or later, it will lead to turmoil in the court and ruin the country.

The most beautiful leading fairy, holding a basket of rice grains, walked in front of the emperor, knelt down and said: "I wish Daduan the country and the people peace and security......"

The emperor was arrogant, leaned forward according to the ceremony, and stretched out his hand to pick up the rice grains......

Suddenly, Mu Qingyan shouted sharply: "Be careful!"

In an instant, several silver needles appeared in her hand, and with a movement of her fingers, she saw a few silver lights flying out of the air, shooting at the dancing girl in front of the emperor at great speed, and the sacrificial dancing girl finally had to dodge the silver needle and left the emperor.

The silver needle was just in the place where the dancer had fled.

Almost at the same time, the prince rushed over with the Praetorian Guard, and surrounded the dancing girl with a sharp weapon.

The emperor's face was frightened, his heart was beating non-stop, and he didn't seem to have reacted to what was happening, but the hand that was being held by Gonggong Gui was trembling slightly.

Gonggong Gui supported the emperor, his eyes were full of worry, and he couldn't help but say softly: "Your Majesty, it's okay!"

Seeing that at this moment, the Praetorian Guards had already surrounded the dancing girls, and the emperor Jun Ao looked at the surrounding dancing girls with his eyes, looking at her holding a short dagger in her hand with a shiny cold light.

At this spring ploughing banquet, the palace maid dared to try to assassinate the emperor, which was too lawless.

Emperor Junao's temples burst out, and he shouted loudly: "Empress, what's going on? You arranged this banquet, how did she get into the dedication procession?"

How ironic is such a picture, it has only experienced an accident, however, not long after, someone dared to openly assassinate him as the emperor.

Is it to prove how unbearable and incompetent the palace of this Daduan Dynasty is?

"Your Majesty, the concubines don't know either!" The queen hurriedly got up and walked to the emperor's side, and said: "This thief has bad intentions, and then assassinated His Majesty on the occasion of the spring ploughing banquet, and really wants to kill two birds with one stone, which will not only hurt the emperor but also make the concubine unjust!

The prince ordered the Praetorian Guards to capture the Assassins alive, so the process of arresting them took some time.

Emperor Jun Ao glanced at the aggrieved queen, his eyes fell on the basket under the imperial case, and said, "What else is in here? ”

The fourth prince swept his eyes and said lightly: "The emperor should let the Praetorian Guards check it, I'm afraid the things in this basket are also strange." ”

Mu Qingyan looked at it from the sidelines, and couldn't help but wonder in her heart, this emperor should be too cowardly, as if anyone could stick a knife!

However, being able to live until now also shows that Jun Ao is successful as this emperor, and there are definitely many people around him who protect him, and his force is definitely not low.

It's a pity that in the end, it still fell into the hands of a woman, and it was poisoned by a woman who has been spoiled for many years......

With a calm face, the emperor ordered several Praetorian guards to pick up the baskets on the ground.

At this time, the prince also led the Praetorian Guards to catch the assassinated woman, tied his hands behind his back, and knelt under the main hall left and right.

The Praetorian Guards, who picked up the basket, slowly removed the rice and grains in the basket as if they were facing a great enemy, only to find that there was a sharp arrow hidden inside, and the arrow was contained in something like a box instead of a normal external bow and crossbow.

This kind of bow and crossbow is pushed out of the box, and the power is greater than that of ordinary bows and crossbows, so you can only open the box and take out powerful arrows. The Praetorian Guard, who was looking for it, held his breath and carefully pried open the lid of the box with a knife, and then gently cut the copper wire inside.

When the arrow was no longer taut, the Praetorian Guard took the arrow off and put it on the tray.

The shorter the contact of such a hidden weapon, the more it will hit with one blow and have no chance of survival, as long as the emperor goes further at that time, the killer will definitely pull the hidden weapon to shoot.

The emperor looked at the short arrow glowing with a deep white cold light, and immediately ordered the imperial doctor to come forward to check, only to see that the imperial doctor had a silver leaf repeatedly touched it, and in an instant, the silver leaf was black.

Seeing this, Imperial Physician Lu immediately looked bad, and asked someone to grab a rabbit from the Tai Hospital for testing and let the rabbit lick the arrow, but in an instant, the rabbit had already bled and vomited blood from seven holes, and his whole body died of convulsions.

When Emperor Junao saw this, he was even more horrified in his heart, even if he didn't have much desire to live, but he didn't want to be assassinated and die under such circumstances.

If it weren't for Mu Qingyan sitting under the head and discovering it early, at this moment, he would probably be dead!

"Who sent you to assassinate me?" The emperor steadied his body proudly, looked coldly at the woman kneeling under the main hall, and asked, "Tell me the commander, I can spare you from death!"

The woman who assassinated was not an ordinary person, when she was dying, she actually disdained the forgiveness given by the emperor, and glared at the emperor even more angrily, even if, in the case of being tied up by five flowers, she dared to stare at the emperor for a long time.

Originally, a good spring praying for the peace of the country and the people, and the spring ploughing sacrifice with good wind and rain has evolved into such a bad mood now.

However, in the next second, the captured woman spoke, which made the scene even more weird and terrifying.

"You, a faint gentleman, only care about enjoying the blessings of all people here, drunk and dreaming of death, drunk and drunk, but you don't care how many ordinary people are on the way to starve to death. I thought that the imperial court would send people to the disaster relief meeting to have a better life, but I didn't expect that not only would I not have to be enslaved...... Dog Emperor, you should be damned, everyone here should be damned......"

When the civil and military officials present heard this, they couldn't help but sit like needle cushions, and what the female assassin who was kneeling with Her Highness said, they all knew in their hearts that they were talking about the collapse of the river and the embankment, covering countless villages and killing countless people......

When the prince heard this, he said in a deep voice: "It is a natural and man-made disaster, how can you put the sin on the court?"

The female assassin was even more angry, and said in a shriek: "If it wasn't for the negligence of you in power, if it wasn't for him sending these corrupt officials, how could the river be diverted and the dam collapsed?"

King's Landing swept her face lightly, and lightly ordered: "Shut your mouth and take it down until the interrogation comes out, and let her die!"

The fourth prince spoke, who didn't follow, and in an instant, with the acquiescence of the emperor, the Praetorian Guards had already taken people down.

Gonggong Gui helped the emperor back to his seat, and the emperor closed his eyes and rested for half a moment.

At this moment, all the officials were worried and uneasy.

Jun Lin and Mu Qingyan drank the wine and sour plum soup on the table by themselves, their expressions were faint, but their eyes were dark.

Half a moment later, Emperor Jun arrogantly opened his eyes slowly and shouted, "Who is responsible for the aftermath of the disaster area?"

"It's a minister, ......a minister," an official stepped out of his seat, knelt down at the foot of the hall, and responded tremblingly.

When Emperor Junao saw that it was Li Hao, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, he was even more furious, picked up the wine glass in front of him and smashed it on Li Hao's head, and the blood flowed down instantly.

"Look at the good things you do!"

Li Hao's face was as pale as earth, and he took off his official hat on the spot and lay on the ground to plead guilty, and the officials involved in the post-disaster reconstruction would not be able to get rid of the relationship if they were investigated, and they knelt on the ground one after another.

"The emperor also has an unshirkable responsibility for this matter. ”

Who knew that the Queen Mother, who had not spoken all this time, got up from her seat at this time and watched everyone say such things.

When the emperor heard the Queen Mother's words, his eyes shot coldly into her face, and he said in a deep voice: "Queen Mother, do you mean to say that it is my fault?"

Hearing the Queen Mother's words, Mu Qingyan stopped the movements in her hands, raised her eyes to look at the person in the high position, and her eyes became even more uncertain.

Just when Mu Qingyan wanted to ask King's Landing what the situation was, King's Landing reached out and held her hand, leaned into her ear, and whispered, "Don't be impatient!"

"The emperor's reign did not make the country develop better, but made the people's lives miserable, isn't it the emperor's fault?" The queen mother looked like she hated iron and steel, and said loudly: "The Daduan Dynasty is so troubled by internal and external troubles, and it is really not easy for the emperor to take on this great responsibility. ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience held their breath, the Queen Mother was blatantly wanting to abolish the emperor.

There is no such precedent at all, so no one dares to speak out at all.

At a glance, you can know that it is a member of the royal family, and the emperor is supported by the queen mother, and with the emperor's ability, the queen mother has long lost the original right to speak.

Come to think of it, the emperor has been overpowering the queen mother for too long, and the queen mother wants to pull the emperor down regardless of everything.

The emperor stared at the Queen Mother coldly, and asked in a deep voice, "Then who does the Queen Mother think can take on this great responsibility?"

The Queen Mother took another step closer and said: "Naturally, it is to abdicate and make way for Xian, and ask the emperor to abdicate and pass it on to His Royal Highness the Prince." As he spoke, a loud voice arose behind him.

"Flutter!"

The Emperor proudly spurted out a mouthful of blood.

Then, a burst of exclamations sounded, "The emperor vomited blood......"

Seeing this, Gonggong Gui hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty, Imperial Doctor, come quickly!"

Like thunder, the people in the hall were panicked, and Mu Qingyan immediately jumped to the emperor's side, and the silver needles in his hands quickly pricked a few big points on his body.

"You...... It's deliberate!" Emperor Junao was treated by Mu Qingyan in time, stabilized and did not fall, and pointed to the Queen Mother and said in a deep voice.

Everyone's eyes looked at the Queen Mother in unison, only to see the Queen Mother say calmly: "The mourning family is just thinking about the national fortune of the Daduan Dynasty, but I didn't expect the emperor's body to be so unbearable, and I can't listen to the truth at all." ”

At this moment, the emperor was wearing a dragon robe and sitting loosely on the dragon chair, and the dragon robe on his body had already been dimmed by dark red blood, and there was no bright yellow light.

In the face of such a scene, the officials present also had no masters, and they did not dare to stand in line randomly.

Imperial Physician Lu also hurriedly stepped forward to check the emperor's pulse, with a solemn expression, as the emperor's imperial physician, this one, his heart was shocked, and he couldn't help but look at Mu Qingyan on the side.

Mu Qingyan's expression was faint, as if she hadn't seen Imperial Doctor Lu's gaze.

Jun Lin glanced at Imperial Physician Lu lightly, and said, "The Queen Mother thinks that the crown prince will definitely be able to do better than the emperor when he sits on the throne?"

The Queen Mother said coldly to King's Landing: "The mourning family only cares about the foundation of the country, since the emperor can no longer handle political affairs well, it is natural to pass on the throne to the crown prince." The mourning family is not wrong!"

After the words fell, the Queen Mother spoke again, and said in a voice that only they could hear: "If the emperor wants to pass on the throne to a gentleman, he has to see if the mourning family agrees!"

She even knew what else she wanted to do with his child?

Angry and anxious, the emperor's arrogant face was ugly, pointing at the queen mother, and suddenly the whole person fell down.

The scene was instantaneous, out of control.

"The Emperor's ......"
