In the same way that the Maharaja abducted Yijing and selected Gaozong to be seriously ill and there will be a big change, Yu Feng sneaked into Xiliang this time to persuade Jin Yuan, and the key step to save Yijing from trouble was also the time when Xiliang's political affairs were troubled, His Royal Highness the Maharaja's whole attention was almost on the movements of the two surnames and individual Wan clans, and it was inevitable that he would be a little negligent about idleness, so it was unlikely that he would pay attention to such normal trivial matters as An Jin and Jin Yuan's meeting.

When everything was ready for Yu Feng's side and rushed back to Chuzhou to create the east wind, the Lanjiang Gong of the Qing clan finally made a detailed plan to assassinate the prince under the advice of many Yi monarchs in his family.

The Qing clan reached an agreement with the Huayang Gong of the Wan family, who had an attempt on the throne, and when the assassination of the monarch was successful, he would blame the Beiyuan tenants, and initiate the political council to make repeated covenants.

And the task of Huayang Gong is to poison the king of Xiliang and seize the royal power by surprise.

Subsequently, the royal family again questioned the nobles who were guilty of disrespecting the council and suppressed dissent.

In this way, the political council will be in power again, and the Qing clan will help Huayang Gong ascend the throne, and the two sides will share the honor and disgrace, and they can beat the Hu family to become the head of the political council.

The nobles had no royal support, so they had to submit to the political council, and no one mentioned the politics of fiefdoms and imperial examinations.

However, this vision is beautiful, but if the Qing clan really has the ability to achieve the plan, they will not wait until they are cornered to fight back.

They were forced to be helpless, and the dog jumped off the wall in a hurry.

Either die in silence or burst out in silence, and of course Kyung chooses the latter.

And Lan Jianggong thinks that the assassination of the prince is still seventy or eighty percent sure - because of Wei Ran.

The only thing that is not sure is whether Huayang Gong can succeed and let the King of Xiliang die, this is the key, after all, no matter how arrogant Lanjiang Gong is, he also understands that he does not have the strength to "admonish soldiers" at this time.

But there was no time to hesitate, Lan Jianggong could only make a desperate bet, he had to complete the task of assassinating the monarch first, so he couldn't wait to secretly edict Wei Ran to come, telling him to leak the whereabouts of the monarch, in order to be safe, and told Wei Ran that it was best to assassinate the monarch while he was in chaos, and handed over a bottle of poison to the sword.

Poorly, this ill-conceived and imperfect plan was doomed to fail from the first step.

"What kind of poison is this?" The Maharaja asked his "royal" poison master Miao Shimo rather curiously.

"It's not a rare poison, it's a poison tree commonly used in assassination, also known as a bloody throat." Miao Shimo said with some disdain.

Well, His Highness has been hit...... and almost died...... The Maharaja was not without depression and remembered the unbearable past that had been plotted by Huang Tao.

Miao Shimo obviously also thought about it, and became more and more annoyed: "If it wasn't for the guards who sent the Mahja directly to the palace, but was treated by his subordinates, how could the Maharaja go through such hardships." ”

In fact, Miao Shimo's medical skills are not sophisticated, but he is good at using poison, and often tests poison by himself, so he always has a variety of antidotes, such as for arrow poison wood, only the red-backed bamboo pole grass can be solved immediately, but this grass and arrow poison wood are general, only growing in tropical dense forests, ordinary people can not obtain, and the palace imperial doctor will not always have it.

"There are a lot of arrow poison trees in the Northern Plains, and it seems that Lanjiang Gong wants to make the people of the Northern Plains carry the black pot." Miao Shimo used his professional knowledge to remind the Maharaja.

"Lan Jianggong also has a group of dead soldiers in his hands, although he can't use them to provoke a coup d'état, but there is more than enough assassination." Wei Ran also reminded: "Last time, he mentioned that there were people in the Wan clan who had ill intentions, and he often secretly interacted with Huayang Gong recently, presumably the person who colluded with him was Huayang Gong, and he should remind His Majesty to be careful." ”

The father of Huayang Gong is the uncle of the King of Xiliang, in the Wan clan, he is also considered powerful, and he used to show goodwill, and the King of Xiliang is also very trusting to the Duke of Huayang, and often edicts him to enter the palace to discuss politics.

"Your Majesty has been on guard against him for a long time, so why remind him." The Mahyun disagreed: "What kind of calculation does the Duke of Lanjiang make, you can think of it by moving your toes alone, let alone Your Majesty." ”

The Maharaja suddenly smiled: "This time he is also desperate, the victory or defeat is in this move, there is no need to be afraid, I think I will personally sit in charge, so that I can ensure that those dead soldiers will go forward and take my life, just to catch a shape." ”

There was a decision at the moment, and the monarch first asked Miao Shimo for an antidote, and then whispered an instruct.

Miao Shimo was full of doubts, but it was not for the Dajun to ask for medicine, this was also a precautionary move, and it was not worth surprising, but for the low voice of the Dajun, but he didn't have time to ask, the Dajun had already patted him on the shoulder: "No need to ask, just execute, without my order, stay in Qinghe and don't come back." ”

The Maharaja sent Miao Shimo away, and asked Wei Ran to leak his itinerary to the Qing clan - recently the nobles have been planning to abolish the political council with great effort, and the contact and conspiracy are very frequent, and many of them have come to visit, trying to persuade the prince to come forward to ask for advice for the nobles and persuade the king of Xiliang to make a decision early, and the prince easily waited until the Duke of Lanjiang decided to "jump over the wall", and then invited the angry nobles to go to the suburbs of the city to discuss secretly.

The king of Xiliang has not yet made a decision, and the prince naturally has to be more cautious, even if he fanned the flames, he could not act directly in the palace of the king, and it was normal to invite the nobles to avoid the eyes and ears of others and go to the other garden to discuss secretly.

It is enough for Qingshi to enter the urn boldly with confidence.

It's just that before the prince acted, he made a special trip to take a free day, played with Xiaoxiao, and stayed in Luqingyuan for two meals in vain, until the time of the lamp, he reluctantly said goodbye, so that Yijing was relieved.

Since this person returned from the expedition, his attitude has become more and more earnest, which really makes Yijing tremble, and she has become more and more cautious in dealing with it, she has a feeling that the final persecution is close at hand, and she can't help but be secretly anxious in her heart.

Before leaving Luqing Garden, the Maharaja told Yijing that he would be "assassinated" the next day.

Of course, the scenery is just right to express shock and worry.

"This thing, fifth sister, put it away." Dajun handed over the antidote he asked for from Miao Shimo to Yijing: "Rest early, you still need the help of your fifth sister tomorrow." ”

This "parting message" puzzled Yijing - since the demon has a clear view of Qing's plan, he will definitely not let people succeed, and it must be a plan to attract people into the urn, so as to wipe out the two surnames in one net, with Yu Haoxi's ability, how can she need her help? Besides, this person didn't say that she would accompany her the next day, what kind of calculation was he making?

The fifth sister really couldn't figure out the demon's idea, and it was inevitable to toss and turn this night.

In this way, he slept again the next day, and woke up almost at noon.

Yijing had just finished lunch, and coaxed Xiaoxiao to fall asleep, when she saw the always calm white-clothed maid Xinju almost fell in directly from outside the curtain, with a small face pale, two blood-red eyes, standing there trembling her lips, and before the words came out, two lines of tears slipped down.

——

The main courtyard of the Maharaja's Mansion was in chaos at this time.

Early this morning, the prince quietly left the house, took an unobtrusive green paint car, and went to the suburb of Beijing under the protection of the secret guards, and was attacked as soon as he left the city.

Although it happened that the city patrol guards rescued and wiped out the assassins, the Maharaja was stabbed in the arm with a sword, which was not a fatal injury, but was highly poisoned!

Xue Dongchang also had the Baijie Pill that Miao Shimo had handed over in the past just in case, which temporarily restrained the toxicity, and the Dajun was still conscious, but the poison of "seeing blood and sealing his throat" had not been cleared, and he had to take medicine and detoxify it in time.

Commander Xue naturally knew early on that the Great Monarch was going to use bitter meat tricks, and with Miao Shimo here, he was not afraid of this terrifying poison, so he didn't feel that there was a big deal, and even had the leisure to sneer twice at people after taking off Lan Jianggong's mask, and slapped people twice with his sword scabbard to vent his anger.

But when the maharaja was sent back to the mansion, he was told that Miao Shimo had gone to Qinghe, a hundred miles away.

"Your Highness, what do you want to do!" Kong Xilin, who came to hear the news, was very angry, and regardless of the prince's increasingly pale face, he rushed to the front of the bed with an arrow: "You know, you know!" Miao Shimo must have been sent away by you, what do you want to do! ”

"Xiao Wu, when it's nonsense now, I'll immediately pass on the good doctor, you go to the princess's mansion and ask Miss Chenwei to come over." Xue Dongchang was about to pull out his feet as he spoke.

"Dongchang stops." but was weakly drunk by the Maharaja.

The corners of his forehead were already wet with sweat, and his lips were gradually turning blue, obviously the medicinal effect of the Baijie Pill he had just taken was no longer as toxic as it was poisonous.

The Maharaja withdrew his wrist, which was being fingered by Xue Guoxiang, and said calmly: "I don't see anyone, go and invite the fifth sister immediately." ”

"It turns out that His Highness's bitter meat plan is not to be shown to the nobles and ministers!" Kong Xilin's tone was sharp, and the irony was already difficult to suppress.

Even Prime Minister Xue frowned heavily, staring at the monarch calmly, but he didn't ask, it seemed that he didn't need to ask more, he had already expected the monarch's thoughts, and after more than ten breaths, he slowly shook his head: "Your Highness is determined to do so?" If the princess is unwilling to give the antidote......"

"There is Minister Lao, if this is the result, her mother and daughter will be sent back to Chuzhou safely."

"Maniac!" Kong Xilin obviously understood, he pushed away Xue Dongchang, who was stunned on the spot but just happened to be in front of him, and stepped forward a few steps, as if he wanted to pull the placket of the prince's clothes, but he lowered his hand halfway, but propped himself on the edge of the bed, his eyes were wet red: "San Lang, listen well, remember what I said now, you better convince Su Wu, if she can watch you die, I will never let her live!" ”

"Dongchang, detain Xi Lin...... I remember that under my order, if I don't cure, it will be a great rebellion of the Qing family, and I have nothing to do with others. After saying this, the pale color on his lips became heavier, and he seemed to be unable to lean on the pillow, and his body slid down, closing his eyes slightly.

Fifth sister, if you still refuse to understand and accept it, then let's stop it, but I said that I will let you go only if I die.

——

When Yijing heard that it was easy for Xinju to choke up and report that the king had been poisoned and his life was hanging by a thread, he also had to understand the deep meaning of yesterday's "parting advice".

Lunatic! She and Kong Xilin's views are surprisingly consistent again.

It was Xue Guoxiang who came to invite her, and he was waiting outside Luqing Garden at this time.

Before this, Xue Guoxiang had already ordered Xue Dongchang to detain the emotional Kong Xilin.

And at this time, he also sent the maid who followed Yijing.

When going to the main courtyard, Xue Guoxiang only said one sentence: "Princess, Your Royal Highness has explained first, if he dies, I will send the princess's mother and daughter back to Chuzhou safely...... Princess, Your Highness has done many things wrong, but I must remind the princess that Your Highness has never thought of harming you, and I hope that the princess will consider carefully. ”

Yi Jing knew that all pretense in front of Xue Guoxiang was meaningless.

"Then if he really doesn't die, will the minister of state follow the order?" She just asked softly.

Xue Guoxiang was silent all the way.

It wasn't until before the main courtyard that he said: "I will, but Princess, if you really make this choice, I believe it will be difficult to feel at ease in the future, Your Highness, he can be regarded as having achieved his wish." ”

Remembering this way, too, is a way.

The scenery closed its eyes and paused.

"Princess, I have actually been not optimistic about you staying in Xiliang, and after this incident, I am more and more convinced that it is a blessing or a curse for you to stay by His Royal Highness's side, so if possible, I hope that the princess will return safely." This is also the reason why Xue Guoxiang has been standing by and watching although he has insight into the facts.

He stopped at the foot of the stairs and watched the straight back of the beautiful scenery disappear behind the falling brocade.

At this time, Xue Dongchang had already sent away all the slaves and maids and secret guards in the main courtyard, leaving only him pacing anxiously, and asked the minister of state, who looked extremely calm: "Uncle, shouldn't it, Your Highness treats you like this, princess she ......"

"I don't know." Xue Guoxiang shook his head, and then shook his head: "Dongchang, go and invite Miss Chenwei to come here, just in case." ”

At this time, Yijing had already stepped into the empty house, and around the partition door, she saw the people who had hated many days and nights quietly half-leaning on the couch, as if sensing her approach, and opened her eyelids forcefully.

Yu Haoxi, I also think it's time for us to make a decision, so let's say goodbye to each other?
