Chapter 22: Assassination

Yang Guang was a little stunned at this time, what's wrong with the queen?

Now there are still people in this harem who dare to bully the queen?

Yang Guang frowned and asked.

"Zitong, what's wrong with you? Has anyone bullied you? ”

Empress Xiao shook her head and reached out to wipe the tears from her cheeks.

She spoke softly.

"The concubine is fine, but when I heard that my brother had won a big victory, I felt a burst of joy in my heart!"

"Brother is the first time since Lai defected to His Majesty that he has led troops out!"

Yang Guang inevitably felt a little disappointed when he heard Empress Xiao's words.

He knew that although Yang Guang had reused Xiao Congde before, he was still guarding against him in the end.

So this time Xiao Cong was able to win the battle, and Queen Xiao was also happy from the inside out.

Yang Guang just hugged Empress Xiao slightly, and Wen Sheng was relieved.

"It's okay, my uncle's life has just begun, and you're already crying like this now."

"There are often such things in the future, do you cry every time?"

When Empress Xiao heard this, she cried with joy and laughed instantly.

She lightly slapped Yang Guang, and then spoke.

"I see, Your Majesty!"

……

The night was dark, and the evening wind blew the branches in the courtyard.

Yu Wenhua and home, there is a group of people sitting in the hall.

The men were richly dressed and had low faces.

The candles around me were dim, and I don't know how long it was.

Suddenly, I heard Yu Wenhua and said fiercely.

"Presumably you have also heard about Xiao Cong, what do you think about this?"

Li Zong sat on the chair with a slight grimness on his face.

"If it weren't for the disaster relief money that day, Xiao Cong wouldn't be as beautiful as he is now."

"The power to take charge of the army itself belongs to Lord Yuwen, but now let Xiao Cong, this kid, pick up the leak."

Yu Wenhua's face was even more gloomy when he heard Li Zong's words, if it weren't for this group of fools who lost the right to take charge of the army for that little profit.

Now they are not so passive, not to mention that Chen Wan also sent a letterhead from the palace.

Yang Guang has been lingering with Queen Xiao every day, and it is not a way to go on for a long time.

Thinking of this, he spoke.

"Adults don't have to be so anxious, after all, this Xiao Huang. Hou was not originally a woman from our Sui Kingdom. ”

"This Xiao Cong was the emperor of Xiliang before, and you also know that if you are not from my race, your heart will be different."

"What's more, that day was also because of Queen Xiao's demon queen, how could we be so struggling like now?"

"If you want me to say, this demon queen has to be removed, what do you think?"

After hearing Yu Wenhua's words, several adults in the hall all looked at each other.

Now in the entire harem, it is indeed Queen Xiao who is the only one.

Your Majesty doesn't know what's going on lately, but he has been running away from Empress Xiao's palace all day long.

This former dynasty and harem are related, I am afraid that if this matter is allowed to develop, Xiao Cong in the court will inevitably have the ability to confront Lord Yuwen.

Things are not going to be good.

But if this thing fails, they may be implicated at that time.

Now Empress Xiao is in the period of favor, and if His Majesty pursues it, none of them will be able to escape.

Just as they were a little fluctuating, Yu Shiji strode out, with a little flattery on his face.

He said indignantly.

"I think what Lord Yuwen said is right, how can our Great Sui courtiers be crushed by a foreign race?"

"Your Majesty is confused, but we can't be confused, I am willing to support Lord Yuwen in this matter."

Yu Wenhua heard Yu Shiji's words, and nodded with satisfaction, although this kid is indeed a little flamboyant, he is quite knowledgeable about current affairs.

After Yu Shiji's words, everyone present gritted their teeth and nodded in agreement.

Although these people are all following Yu Culture for the sake of profit, this Yu Culture can really bring them benefits.

What's more, if Yang Guang supports Xiao Cong, with their understanding of Xiao Cong, they will definitely not have a good life for them in the future.

There is no such extravagance as it is now, and I can only take that little amount of silver every month.

In this case, it is better to follow Yu Wenhua and do a big job.

Thinking of this, everyone made a decision.

"I'm waiting for Lord Yuwen to look forward."

A satisfied smile appeared on Yu Wenhua and Wen Yan's faces.

In any case, this Empress Xiao must die today.

At night, the palace is terrifyingly quiet, and from time to time some unknown birds chirp and fly over the sky.

At this time, it was already past midnight, and almost everyone in the palace had fallen asleep

Dozens of masked men dressed as night walkers ran past the eaves.

The guards patrolling the palace seemed to have not heard of it, and those people quickly came to the Renshou Palace.

The hall was lit with dim yellow candlelight, and the windows of the palace were not closed, and the curtains in the hall could be faintly seen flying in the air.

At this time, a little eunuch who was standing in the courtyard and dozing off woke up.

He shouted in horror in a sharp voice.

"There are assassins, come on, there are assassins."

As soon as the little eunuch's voice fell, he saw the leader cursing.

Originally, they wanted to kill Empress Xiao first unknowingly recently.

At this time, they could only raise their swords and rush into the temple.

Yang Guang in the hall was naturally awakened by the movement outside.

He immediately sat up from the bed, and saw Empress Xiao looking at the door worriedly at this time.

The sound of fighting outside the hall gradually became louder.

However, at this time, a few people still rushed in, and Queen Xiao was shocked.

There was horror on the soft face, but she still pushed Yang Guang behind her and stood in front of Yang Guang to speak.

"Your Majesty, wait a minute, you don't have to worry about the concubines, find a chance to run out!"

Yang Guang looked at Empress Xiao's thin back, which was straight.

A little emotion rose in his heart.

The black-clothed men looked at each other and rushed over directly with their swords.

The blade sank directly into Empress Xiao's chest.

Suddenly dripping with blood, Empress Xiao couldn't help but moan in pain.

Seeing this, Yang Guang immediately pounced, and those few people were shocked, and hurriedly pulled out their swords, and the man glanced at Queen Xiao who fell on the bed, and wanted to make up for another sword.

After all, tonight, Lord Yuwen told him to kill this Empress Xiao.

I don't want Empress Xiao to live until tomorrow.

But Yang Guang seemed to be crazy, and directly took the candlestick on the side and threw it over.

Seeing this, those people quickly dodged.

Yang Guang's face was full of tears, and he reached out to cover the blood hole in Empress Xiao's chest tightly, and said intermittently.

"Zitong is not afraid, don't worry, I won't let you have anything to do."

Yang Guang held Empress Xiao directly in his arms and covered Empress Xiao's bleeding chest with one hand.
