183 Decapitation 2-in-1 chapter
Ye Chengcheng didn't see Li Zhen release a signal to save people, so he expected that the situation inside was not good.
She quickened the attack on this side.
King Kang saw that his defense line and army had become more and more messy in Ye Tingcheng's charge, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious and panicked in his heart.
Why hasn't Ye Yucheng moved yet? Didn't she already let her mix the medicine into Xiao Yunmo's meal? According to the plan, Xiao Yunmo should have been poisoned now, Xiao Yunmo is poisoned, Emperor Zhao will definitely be in a big mess, and he will spare no effort to save Xiao Yunmo, and when the time comes, the people he placed next to Emperor Zhao can take advantage of the chaos.
King Kang was waiting in a hurry, and Ye Yucheng was also beating the drum with anxiety in his heart.
Xiao Yunmo was guarding Emperor Zhao's side, looking energetic, not at all like he was going to be poisoned...... Could it be that there is something wrong with the medicine that Xiao Yunxuan gave her? Or did Xiao Yunmo not touch the bowl at all?
"The crown princess." A palace maid who followed behind Ye Chengcheng handed a glass of water to Ye Yucheng.
Ye Yucheng took the water cup a little dazed, she didn't mean to drink tea...... This is...... She looked at the palace maid with a little doubt, she was not very familiar with this palace maid but she knew it, it was a rough palace maid over there, and her grade was very low. When her heart was mentioned, she saw the palace maid palming her, Ye Yucheng looked at her palm, and when she saw it, she gasped in her heart, and she held a cold dart in her hand, and wrote the word "Xuan" in the palm under the dart.
She is Xiao Yunxuan's person...... Ye Yucheng's hand holding the water cup shook suddenly, and the tea that had just been brewed in it was almost shaken out by her.
The palace maid pressed Ye Yucheng's hand, and then glanced in Xiao Yunmo's direction, "Crown Princess Niangniang, Your Majesty has not entered a drop of water until now." She whispered to Ye Yucheng.
Ye Yucheng's face suddenly turned a little pale, and she instantly understood what the palace maid meant.
She asked herself to hand the tea to Emperor Zhao......
She lowered her eyes and looked at the teacup, the fine celadon, the fire candle in the dungeon reflected the tea in the cup and bowl more golden, and the tea fragrance was faintly curling, with a bit of refreshing meaning.
Ye Yucheng intuitively felt that the tea was poisonous, and her hand holding the tea couldn't help but tremble.
I don't know if it's because of the weakness in my heart, so I don't feel right when I look at anything, she actually feels that Xiao Yunmo's side passed two eyes with a cold aura on her body, she couldn't help but raise her eyes to look over, but Xiao Yunmo was looking elsewhere.
The palace maid saw that Ye Yucheng was reluctant to move, and was about to secretly threaten her again, but saw another palace maid come over with an expressionless face, and pushed Ye Yucheng on the back, Ye Yucheng couldn't stand still, and staggered forward, which was particularly prominent in the quiet underground palace, and everyone's eyes were focused on her for a while.
Ye Yucheng's face was a little pale, and with the tea, his mind instantly became blank.
"What's wrong with the crown princess?" Emperor Zhao frowned slightly.
That panicked look, at this time, makes people feel a little bored. As the crown princess and the future queen, the more in this kind of crisis, the more calm and atmospheric she should be, what kind of system is the performance of cowering!
Even Concubine Hui was displeased.
Everyone was already nervous, and Ye Yucheng, as the crown princess, had to play an exemplary role at this time. In this way, where is half the atmosphere and dignity of a royal daughter-in-law, even the palace maids behind her are inferior.
Ye Yucheng only felt that the teacup in her hand seemed to have thorns, and when Emperor Zhao said this, she was even more panicked, her hand really shook, the tea bowl fell to the ground, the tea was poured, and a puff of green smoke rose from the water-soaked place on the green bricks on the ground.
Everyone was stunned, and all eyes were fixed on the ground, this green smoke ......
"Your Majesty forgives you." Ye Yucheng suddenly panicked even more when she saw it, and hurriedly crawled to the ground, "It was Erchen who accidentally knocked over the tea bowl, but the tea bowl is too hot." ”
"Is it too hot or something else?" Xiao Yunmo smiled coldly, "Come on, take down the crown princess." ”
He said to his personal guard behind him.
"Yes." The two guards came out and couldn't help but say that they would hold Ye Yucheng down first.
"Tell me, who gave you this tea?" Xiao Yunmo walked quickly in front of Ye Yucheng, pinched her chin, and forced her to raise her eyes to look at herself. "Or did you add something to it yourself?"
"What is Your Highness talking about? Concubine ......" Ye Yucheng calmed down a little in a panic, "The concubine just missed for a while, how can His Highness frame the concubine." ”
"And you say I framed you?" Xiao Yunmo sneered and tapped the water on the ground with his toes, "Do you want someone to take a silver needle to test the poison?" This tea can't be what you want to drink yourself, is it for me, or for my father? ”
As soon as Xiao Yunmo said this, everyone in the dungeon gasped, and they all held their breath, and no one dared to speak.
Ye Yucheng's face was already not good, and this time there was no blood, "Your Highness...... The concubine is ......"
"You're trying to say you've been wronged?" Xiao Yunmo sneered, "Do you really think that you have done something and I don't know anything?" I haven't said it just for the sake of the face of the King of Pingjiang, do you really think that you can hide my eyes by arranging people to observe my every move by my side, and I will give you face, but you yourself don't cherish it. What did you do with King Kang, you know it in your own heart, and I'm telling you now, I didn't drink that bowl of porridge in the morning. I'll give you one last chance, and you will identify you and King Kang's comrades in this underground palace. I may intercede with my father to leave you a whole corpse. ”
Xiao Yunmo's words, let alone Ye Yucheng, even Emperor Zhao and Concubine Hui were shocked, they glanced at each other, they were all shocked, and they didn't know what to say at all.
Ye Yucheng actually had a connection with King Kang...... And there are also people in this underground palace, there are also people of King Kang, for a while, Emperor Zhao's eyes swept over everyone in the underground palace as far as his eyes could reach, and almost all the people in the underground palace hung their heads, for fear that they would suffer some unwarranted disaster.
The tea must be poisonous, even a fool can see it.
"You don't say?" Xiao Yunmo sneered, "Then I'll catch it myself!" ”
He raised his eyes and glanced at the place where Ye Yucheng had just stood, and the palace maid who pushed Ye Yucheng out gave him a look, Xiao Yunmo's figure suddenly rose, and he pounced like a bird of prey.
The palace maid who handed the tea to Ye Yucheng knew that she had been exposed, so she simply didn't do anything, first threw out the dart buckled in the palm of her hand, and then pulled out the dagger hidden in her sleeve, and stabbed it in the direction of Emperor Zhao.
The palace maid who pushed Ye Yucheng just now hurriedly raised her hand to block it, and intercepted all the darts, so that the palace maid's attack was stagnant, and then Xiao Yunmo attacked, but in a few rounds, the palace maid who was placed by Xiao Yunxuan, the king of Kang, was placed by the side of the crown princess.
"Who else are your comrades?" Xiao Yunmo ordered someone to escort the palace maid down, and asked in a cold voice.
The palace maid raised her eyes and smiled weirdly at Xiao Yunmo, Xiao Yunmo secretly said no, raised her hand to pinch her jaw, but it was too late, she had already bitten a poison sac hidden behind her teeth, and the poison sealed her throat with blood, the palace maid convulsed twice, and fell softly at Xiao Yunmo's feet.
King An looked coldly at everything that happened in front of him in the corner, although there was no expression on his face, but he kept measuring it in his heart.
Shicai has already come over to spread the news of General Li and King Pingjiang to His Majesty, General Li's daughter has broken into the imperial tomb and is building a defensive line to block the attacking Rouran soldiers, and the frontal confrontation with the Rouran army is the Jinyi Weinan battalion led by Ye Qingcheng, Qin Shao supervises the battle.
Qin Shao and Ye Tingcheng came back, but Nangong Yu didn't hear from him at all, it is estimated that there was more luck than luck, and Ye Tingcheng and Qin Shao were able to mobilize the people of Nan Daying, indicating that Commander Zhang had been exposed. I just don't know if I confessed to him......
According to his agreement with Jian'an, King Kang was taken out as their shield, everything was planned by King Kang on the surface, but in fact, they were on the side to add fuel to the fire, so that King Kang came here step by step. It is true that the army was lent to King Kang by Raquel, but the secret financiers were him and Jian'an, and the huge military expenses were all drawn from the profits from the slave trade. Jian'an gave him another token, as long as he succeeds here, kills Xiao Yunmo, captures Emperor Zhao, and when he forces Emperor Zhao to write the edict of succession, he will take out the token, let the Rouran people defect to King Kang, and support him to ascend the throne, he has the Rouran people in his hands, as well as Nandaying, King Kang has to surrender to his feet no matter how much he complains.
In his plan with Jian'an, Ye Qingcheng and Qin Shao have no chance to return to the capital, so he is absolutely safe, even if King Kang's plan does not work out and is known in advance, His Majesty will definitely use the people of Nandaying to clear out the Rouran people, at that time, the Nandaying is still under his control, and the Rouran people are also obeying his orders, and he also has the opportunity to catch Emperor Zhao. Take another 10,000 steps back, Your Majesty is not using people from Nandaying, but using other people to fight against King Kang, no matter what Emperor Zhao and King Kang are like, he still sits firmly on the Diaoyutai and lets the snipe and mussels fight, and he, a fisherman, benefits.
But now one Ye Chengcheng and one Qin Shao have obviously mixed up his entire plan! Nangong Yu, Yan Jia must have fallen into the hands of Ye Tingcheng and Qin Shao. Then it is impossible for him to hide and wait for a one, two, or three fight over there.
Ye Chengcheng will lead troops to fight, although this is a little surprising, but if you think about it carefully, there is nothing surprising about it, she was also selected by the martial arts meeting, and she is the champion! I just don't know how stubborn King Kang is outside, he should have caught the hundred officials and Mrs. Decree who didn't have time to enter the underground palace and the eldest son of each family, etc., with such a good hand in hand, Ye Tingcheng is also shrinking when he fights, King Kang may not be defeated, so King An thought about it again and again, or decided to take a look at the situation.
Ye Yucheng and King Kang are mixed together, and King An knows it. But Ye Yucheng didn't know that he was also involved, and now even if Ye Yucheng was exposed, he was safe.
King An originally thought that Xiao Yunmo didn't know about Ye Yucheng and King Kang, but now it seems that it is not the same thing at all. Xiao Yunmo was so scheming that he had been holding back, and he didn't find out Ye Yucheng until now...... This made King An's heart cold, he looked at Xiao Yunmo, and suddenly felt that they originally thought that it was a seamless plan this time, but they still ignored many things, such as Qin Shao's hidden danger should be removed as soon as possible, and Ye Qingcheng, a woman, should not give her the slightest chance, she should be killed directly, as for Xiao Yunmo, they underestimated the scheming of this half-brother.
Ye Yucheng's face was now dead, she bit her lip and wanted to distinguish it for herself, but she only opened her mouth, and was kicked to the ground by Xiao Yunmo in front of everyone, "You want to be faced!" Xiao Yunmo bent down, stared at Ye Yucheng's eyes tightly, gritted his teeth and said, "Do you have to let me tell what you did here in front of everyone, and you are willing to give up?" Then he leaned close to Ye Yucheng's ear and said in a voice that only she could hear, "Do you think you will have the opportunity to get together with Xiao Yunxuan so easily?" If I hadn't asked someone to let you out, would you have been able to meet him? Joke! Do you really think I'm an idiot? You know that I like Ye Tingcheng, yes, I like her, compared to her, you are not worthy of lifting her shoes. I have never exposed you, firstly, to keep you to see who Xiao Yunxuan has placed beside me, and secondly, to protect the Pingjiang Palace, you will implicate them, now the Pingjiang King Qinhuang has meritorious, Ye Qingcheng rescued the driver in time, and the merits of the two of them are enough to protect the peace of the Pingjiang Palace, so you are just a poor outcast. I didn't drink anything you sent in the morning, everything was a lie to you. You're stupid! ”
After Xiao Yunmo's words were finished, Ye Yucheng suddenly let out a terrible scream, she was so angry and angry that she tried to jump up from the ground and pounce on Xiao Yunmo, "I'm going to kill you!" "She is also a person from the palace, although the former princess of Pingjiang died early, but the current princess of Pingjiang in order not to let people say anything gossip, she is also raised in the palm of her hand, that is, because she is the biological daughter of the former princess of Pingjiang, so usually in the Pingjiang Palace, the current princess of Pingjiang has a lot of tolerance for her, she was selected by Concubine Hui early as the candidate for Xiao Yunmo's wife, Ye Lucheng is counting on her to be able to soar in the future, so she has always been flattering to her, and slowly praised her a little bit and felt that she was superior. In addition, she did bad things in Pingjiang Wangfu on weekdays and then shirked it to Ye Lucheng, so in her bones, she was even more proud and arrogant than Jian'an.
Her ugly thing was known by Xiao Yunmo, and she had always been panicked, so she thought about quickly finding some reason to pass the blame, she felt that Xiao Yunmo didn't make her things clear in front of so many people, but there was still room for turnaround, where did she know that Xiao Yunmo actually said these words in her ear, and these words were heard in Ye Yucheng's ears, like a steel knife slashing off her heart flesh after knife in her heart.
She always thought that she had concealed Xiao Yunmo very well, but in the end, she was just a chess piece in Xiao Yunmo's hands, and for a while, she was greatly stimulated, and even a little crazy.
She flew and pounced, her slender nails scratching a few bloody marks on Xiao Yunmo's neck like daggers.
Everyone present was stunned by the scene in front of them. They couldn't hear what Xiao Yunmo said to Ye Yuncheng, but they saw that Ye Yuncheng suddenly went crazy and shouted to kill Xiao Yunmo. Even Emperor Zhao slapped the armrest of the chair and shouted, "Presumptuous! As soon as he wanted to say that he was coming and took down the Ye Yu City, he saw a cold light flashing, and there were scattered blood droplets splashing over, Emperor Zhao subconsciously closed his eyes, and the blood beads fell in front of him, forming mottled traces on the blue brick ground.
The timid palace concubine couldn't help but scream in shock, Concubine Hui also trembled, and grabbed Emperor Zhao's sleeve, she felt that she was chilling, and Xiao Yunmo, who was standing on the blue brick ground not far away with a sword, seemed to be someone she had never seen before! The cold and murderous aura that emanated from her body was completely different from the well-behaved son who was usually in front of her......
The tip of his sword was still dripping blood, but Ye Yucheng, who had reached out to scratch him just now, had already landed on her head, her eyes were still wide, and there were red threads and anger and unwillingness in them...... These have been frozen in her eyes and become timeless......
Xiao Yunmo lowered his eyes and looked at the head that was rolling to the side, and sneered in his heart.
He deliberately provoked Ye Yucheng in front of Emperor Zhao, he knew that according to Ye Yucheng's temper, it would definitely explode, and what he was waiting for was for her to take the initiative to attack him, and then give himself a reason to kill her.
He had long wanted to kill her with his own hands, she was his stain! Just because he endured it for so long doesn't mean he won't retaliate.
He is the one who will be the emperor in the future, how can he let his crown princess be attacked with gossip, if Ye Yucheng is handed over for interrogation, it will definitely involve this matter. He won't! Ye Yucheng must die, and he must die under his sword, so as to preserve his reputation and eliminate the hatred in his heart.
As for King Kang, it must also be a dead man!
After being surprised, Emperor Zhao took a deep look at his son.
He has always felt that Xiao Yunmo is like himself, even the problem of soft-heartedness is like himself. But now Emperor Zhao suddenly realized that His Royal Highness the Prince, who was as soft as a noble prince, had now unconsciously become ruthless.
"Father!" Xiao Yunmo immediately knelt in front of Emperor Zhao after cutting off Ye Yucheng's head, "Son......" He held his sword in both hands and raised it in front of Emperor Zhao, "Son ......" He choked up.
Emperor Zhao immediately waved his hand and said, "Okay, you are in a hurry to defend yourself, so you killed the crown princess by surprise, the crown princess colluded with King Kang, intending to murder me in the front, and assassinating you in the back, even Ling Chi is not an exaggeration, I remember that her father is the king of Pingjiang, and her sister is the princess of Luocheng, just wait for everything to be calmed down, and the people of the Pingjiang palace will bring her body back." ”
When Emperor Zhao said this, everyone knew in their hearts that Emperor Zhao now didn't recognize Ye Yucheng, his daughter-in-law, he still saved face for the Pingjiang Palace, and didn't say anything about deposing her title, but just asked the people of the Pingjiang Mansion to bring her body back for burial.
Everyone looked at each other, and then knelt on the ground in unison, "Your Majesty's magnanimity is a blessing to all the people. ”
In normal times, Emperor Zhao likes to listen to such words very much, but now, his heart is only bitter......
I don't know what the situation is outside, so after he asked people to clean up the dungeon, he asked someone to go out and have a look.
Ye Chengcheng was brave, she led people back and forth to kill, and gradually scattered the Rouran people.
The Rouran people are big, if they gather together, it is very difficult to defeat, Ye Tingcheng has already seen it, so she took the lead in leading the cavalry to break through, divide and eat the people first, and all the people surrounded by the cavalry she brought with her were wiped out, so the Rouran people were beaten miserably.
There are no generals under King Kang who can command at all, he originally wanted to suppress the Praetorian Guards and the Imperial Tomb Guards by relying on the number of people to suppress first, where are there any tactics at all, when the Rouran people saw this situation, they couldn't help but be angry, and the leader of the Rouran people rushed to King Kang and forced him to order the withdrawal of the troops. The leader of the Rouran people is not stupid, he knows that King Kang has a large number of hostages in his hands, what he thinks about is relying on these hostages, forcing the emperor of Daliang to promise to let them go back to Rouran, as for what will happen to King Kang in the future, what does it have to do with him, he just collects money to kill people, there is no need to give his life here for money.
Rouran people had the idea of retreating, but Ye Chengcheng became more and more brave as she killed, and she was killed all the way to the inner hall, and she was united with Li Zhen's soldiers.
General Li and King Pingjiang saw Ye Tingcheng and the people of the Jinyi Weinan Battalion rushing like a tide on the inner city wall, not to mention the joy in his heart, the Praetorian Guards and guards in the inner city saw that the people and horses of the Nanda Battalion wearing the Jinyi Wei Feiyu Suit were killed, and they were all like a heart booster.
General Li ordered the gate of the inner city to be opened, and everyone rushed out together, the morale was high here, and the Rouran people saw that the general trend had gone, where were they still willing to fight, and they were defeated and retreated.
King Kang was forced to have no choice but to order the troops to retreat to a mountain near the imperial tomb.
When he was guarding the imperial tomb here, he once found a cottage in the mountain here, the cottage was abandoned, there were bandits in the mountain before, but after this side was selected as the location of the imperial tomb, all the bandits in the mountain were driven away. But an empty walled city was left.
Although this empty walled city has been dilapidated after a hundred years of wind and rain, but King Kang found someone to come and repair it when he was here, the predecessor of this walled city is actually a castle, which was built by the nearby people and rich families in order to avoid the war of the previous dynasty, and was later occupied by bandits, and now after King Kang's repair, the city wall or something can still be used.
In order to avoid the war, the castle also dug a tunnel called a vertical and horizontal tunnel.
Before the Rouran people came, King Kang arranged the Rouran people here.
