Chapter Fifty-Eight: Murder with a Knife

"Release the arrows!" Wen Jingxian gave an order, and clusters of arrows that flashed with cold light rained down.

Wen Jinghua dodged a wave, took advantage of the time when the archer was winding, grabbed a Pu knife and came over, and looked around where to get out.

It's easy for her to escape alone, but there are still serious injuries in the poem, and Wen Jinghua can't leave her.

Before Wen Jinghua entered the mansion, she had hinted that Shuhui would move the rescue soldiers, as long as she supported her for a while, when Xiao Hongying arrived, the situation might still have room to turn around.

It's just that there is a great chaos in the Taiji Palace at present, and Xiao Hongying, who is a Jinyi guard, may not be able to come to Yongwang's Mansion in time.

At the same time, Qi Yuanshen thought that he had won the battle, and entered the Taiji Palace leisurely.

In the Wende Palace, the little eunuchs were cleaning up in horror.

Many of the furnishings in the temple were damaged, and there were blood stains on the floor that would have to be wiped clean.

Large tracts of blood had dried up, and judging by the amount of blood, the injured person had been cut off and could not live.

It can be seen that the previous battles were fierce.

Qi Yuanshen tried his best to suppress the smile on the corner of his mouth, and asked with a concerned look: "Where is my father, and is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince okay?"

The little eunuchs were still frightened, and only replied vaguely: "In... It's in the apse, Your Highness, go and take a look..."

Qi Yuan couldn't wait to come to the apse, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw the imperial doctors standing around the bed.

The queen sat on a chair beside her, already crying breathlessly.

Seeing this, Qi Yuanshen couldn't suppress the joy in his heart anymore, and stepped forward briskly and asked, "Father is not good?"

As soon as he said this, the imperial doctors looked at him strangely.

Qi Yuan knew that he was speechless, and made up for himself: "Where is His Royal Highness the Prince? The assassination of my father and the emperor, national affairs cannot be left unattended, and I ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come to the court soon." Could it be that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was also assassinated?"

The more he spoke, the more Sima Zhao's heart became, and the eyes of everyone staring at him became more and more suspicious.

At this time, a little eunuch reminded: "His Royal Highness King Yong, the assassins who assassinated him before have been ambushed, and His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are all right..."

Qi Yuan listened carefully and asked in disbelief, "What did you say?!"

The little eunuch was startled by him, hurriedly took a few steps back and lowered his head, but he didn't dare to say a word.

Seeing this, Queen Wang stopped crying and sneered: "King Yong's attitude seems to be looking forward to an accident between His Majesty and the crown prince. ”

The onlookers were even more suspicious.

Qi Yuanshen hurriedly defended: "Erchen is concerned about it, he said the wrong thing for a while, and asked the queen mother not to be surprised." ”

"Hmph," Queen Wang said meaningfully: "Do you know in your own heart that this palace only tells you that Your Majesty and the crown prince are fine, and now they are personally trying the thief who committed the assassination, King Yong can rest assured." ”

Qi Yuanshen was shocked when he heard this.

What does this mean?

The Bei people he planted in the palace to assassinate not only did not succeed, but were captured by the forbidden army in the palace?

If the emperor finds out something, he's finished!

Originally, the victory was in hand, but how did it suddenly become like this?

Qi Yuanshen's mind was confused, and he immediately asked, "Father and the crown prince are fine, so who is the person lying on the bed?"

Queen Wang wiped away her non-existent tears, made an extremely sad appearance, and cried: "See for yourself, all hopes can support it." ”

Qi Yuanshen felt more and more that something was wrong.

He walked to the bed hard, and saw Wan Zhen'er lying on the bed with a face like gold paper.

I saw that Wan Zhen'er had a knife wound on her body that ran from her left chest through her right abdomen, and at this time, the skin and flesh turned out, and the blood flowed endlessly.

Qi Yuanshen's scalp was numb.

was originally full of pride, but most of it was leaked in an instant.

"How can this be!" Qi Yuanshen's face turned pale.

Wan Zhen'er participated in the whole process of conspiring with the Bei people to commit the assassination, and the Bei people also knew that Wan Zhen'er was an accomplice, how could they attack Wan Zhen'er!?

The queen made a gesture and cried bitterly: "Concubine Gaoyi, originally His Majesty and the crown prince discussed state affairs in the Wende Hall today, and the palace invited the concubine to come together, but who knew that the four of us had just talked for a while, and a group of assassins disguised as palace people appeared out of nowhere. At that time, the concubine and His Majesty were standing closest to each other, and the assassin slashed at him, and the concubine actually rushed forward and blocked a knife for His Majesty. ”

Queen Wang whimpered and cried, but Qi Yuanshen didn't believe a word.

Will Wan Zhen'er go to block the knife for the old emperor?

He didn't believe the sun coming out of the west!

It's just that the cause and effect are so high-sounding, Qi Yuanshen has to believe it if he doesn't believe it.

Right now, the Emperor and the Crown Prince are interrogating the captured Assassins, and if they confess themselves, it will be over!

Qi Yuanshen immediately shed a few tears, expressing his worries about Wan Zhen'er as a son, and said to Queen Wang: "Mother has a queen mother to take care of, and Erchen is very relieved, so Erchen will go to help his father and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince jointly try the assassin." ”

After speaking, he couldn't wait for Queen Wang to be polite, and walked out quickly.

Seeing this, Queen Wang couldn't help but snort coldly.

What she said just now was just a superficial phenomenon, in fact, Wan Zhen'er was accidentally injured today, and she and the prince planned it.

Ever since Wen Jinghua reminded the prince that the people around Qi Yuanshen were the Bei clan's fine work, the prince had been paying attention to the movements of this group of people.

Today, the crown prince entered the palace early in the morning and informed the queen that they would act today.

The crown prince and the queen simply came to kill someone with a knife, and Wan Zhen'er was also involved.

Wan Zhen'er didn't want to come today, but she couldn't resist the queen's strong invitation.

She was already weak-hearted, afraid that she would be afraid that she would keep refusing, and that Queen Wang and the crown prince would notice the abnormality, and thinking that those people in the Bei clan knew her, even if they assassinated, they couldn't really hurt her, so she had the courage to come with Queen Wang.

But when the group of assassins broke in, the queen and the crown prince had already been protected by their own people, only the emperor and Wan Zhen'er, the forbidden soldiers were weaker.

So the Northern Assassins first killed the old emperor and Wan Zhen'er.

Of course, they knew Wan Zhen'er, so they just compared Wan Zhen'er twice, and never really killed her.

If you want to talk about killers, it has to look at the old emperor.

Because the prince couldn't attack here, the people of the Northern clan were more and more desperate against the old emperor.

The few forbidden soldiers were quickly cut down.

The Bei clan's knife was fatal, and seeing another knife cut over, the old emperor knew that he couldn't hide anymore, so he pushed it ruthlessly and sent Wan Zhen'er out beside him.

"Ahh

The sky is pitiful, Wan Zhen'er's frightened exclamation is still there, and the fine skin and tender flesh of her body were thrown out by the old emperor to make a meat shield.

"Puff-" The sound of the scimitar slashing flesh made the queen snort fiercely.

She came back to her senses and looked at Wan Zhen'er on the couch struggling with some sympathy.

What about thousands of pampering in one?

When disaster came, didn't the man who held her in the palm of his hand throw her out just to save his life?

Afterwards, the emperor also made amends for himself, saying that Wan Zhen'er was to protect himself and pounce on him.

In fact, His Majesty the Emperor, the only person he loves the most is himself...
