Chapter 551: A Trap
Hearing this, the eldest prince was stunned.
"You got it?"
But soon he smiled again, "What if you know? It's getting late, isn't it?"
As he spoke, he asked the attendant beside him, "What time is it?"
The chamberlain bowed his head and smiled, "It's just past the ugly time."
"There is still an hour and a half before the last dynasty, let's go, go and see how my dragon robe is?" When the day dawns, I will declare that I am the new lord of the world, and as for my father, if you are willing to admit it, I will still save your life."
Then he left in a hurry.
The emperor looked at all this and just sneered.
About two quarters of an hour later, the Great Prince returned, this time, he was wearing a brand new dragon robe, and the five-clawed golden dragon on his sleeve was still a little dazzling in the light of the candlelight, just like the Great Prince's high-spirited expression.
"Father, take a look, can the dragon robe of the son be returned to your eyes?"
"Good."
The emperor closed his eyes and did not look at him at all.
But the eldest prince didn't care, and was still admiring his dragon robe excitedly.
"Hehe, in one more hour, I will be able to wear this dress to everyone in a bright light, hahaha!"
After laughing, he looked at the emperor again, "Father, do you write this edict?"
Seeing that the emperor didn't pay attention to him at all, he sneered, "Okay, if you don't write it, I'll have someone write it for you, but this morning, I have to wronged you and die violently."
After speaking, he looked outside with some irritation, "What's the matter, why hasn't Concubine Xiao come back yet?" Hasn't the edict been found? If the order goes down, if it is not found, then a fire will directly miss the dormitory, no matter what secret edict he has, after the ashes are extinguished, there will be nothing."
"Yes!"
The little eunuch answered and walked out quickly, but as soon as he went out, there was a slight muffled snort outside the door, which was too slight and seemed to be an illusion.
"What's going on?"
The eldest prince suddenly chuckled in his heart, and subconsciously felt that something was not right, but the excitement of becoming the emperor also made him not pay too much attention, he admired his dragon robe for a while, and then walked towards the door, deciding to go to the front hall to admire his figure first.
However, as soon as he went out of the door, a sharp wind sounded in his ears.
He didn't even see anything, so he felt a pass in his chest, and he looked down in a daze, and there was already a sharp feather arrow in his chest.
"How—"
He looked down in a daze, and the bright red blood dyed all the five-clawed golden dragons on the dragon robe red.
"Bang."
He fell to the ground with a bang, and he didn't blink an eye!
In the room, the emperor's expression was originally cold, but after hearing this, he couldn't help but close his eyes and sighed softly.
Then, he stood up, and the senior attendant on the side also changed his previous appearance, and hurriedly got up from the place, holding the emperor's hand with a respectful expression.
"Get out of here!"
He shouted angrily at the rest of the room, as if he had become the high-ranking and invincible servant he had been before.
The two guards and chamberlains who were still guarding the emperor were stunned when they saw this scene, and they were subconsciously annoyed in their hearts, and then they wanted to stop the two.
At this moment, only two loud voices were heard, and two feathered arrows pierced through the window, piercing the two guards through.
The two little eunuchs suddenly turned pale with fright, screaming and dodging.
And the emperor and Gao Neishou strode out, just right, Qi Jingxing ran to the door with arrows quickly, saw the emperor come out, hurriedly knelt down, bowed his head and said, "The minister is late to save the driver, and I ask the emperor to forgive me."
"Not too late, not too late."
The emperor stepped forward to help him up, and said in a deep voice; "Just in time!"
At this time, the black pressure behind Qi Jingxing was full of soldiers, and there was a flash of fire in the distance, and the sound of fighting was everywhere.
"The emperor rests here for a while, the other generals
It's strangled against the thief, and it'll be over soon."
"Well, you've worked hard."
He said softly.
At this moment, a miserable scream came, and the emperor looked up, but saw that it was Xiao Guifei who was thrown out.
She has always been noble and beautiful, she looks embarrassed at this moment, the hairpin rings on her head are scattered all over the ground, her luxurious robe has become tattered and bad because of pulling, and there are more bruises on her face.
"Your Majesty, what are you going to do with her?"
Qi Jingxing asked.
"You, why are you here? You shouldn't—"
As soon as Concubine Xiao saw Qi Jingxing, she immediately screamed like a ghost, her face full of disbelief.
"Should I have died in your ambush?" A cold mockery flashed across Qi Jingxing's face, "It's a pity that your trap didn't work."
"You—"
Concubine Xiao's eyes widened, and she looked back at the emperor with a cold expression, and suddenly understood.
It turns out that their affairs have already been detected, and all this is a trap!
Just as she was thinking about it, she suddenly noticed the corpse of the eldest prince at the emperor's feet, and suddenly screamed in fright.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's all him, it's all him who forced me!"
She suddenly rushed forward and hugged the emperor's legs, crying and shouting: "The concubines are all forced, it's the eldest prince, he said that if the concubines don't help him, he will let people kill the concubines' families, and he also said, you are about to die, when you die, I am helpless, he will let the concubines die without a place to bury!"
"Your Majesty, forgive the concubine this time, the concubine really didn't mean it!"
"Your Majesty!"
Looking at the crying pear blossom with rain in front of him, the emperor couldn't help but shake his head, "I never thought that you would be a woman with such a poisonous scorpion heart, I am really blind."
"Come on, drag this femme fatale down for me, wait until noon, and execute Ling Chi before noon!"
"No!"
Hearing this punishment, Xiao Guifei's face suddenly turned pale, and she desperately tried her hand to grab the emperor's leg, but she was grabbed by two soldiers, and she was torn apart like rags, and then forcibly dragged down.
It was a long time before Xiao Guifei's screams disappeared.
When she was far away, another general approached with someone.
"The ministers see the emperor."
This person turned out to be Lin Rufeng, who should have been far away in the north.
Seeing Lin Rufeng coming, the emperor had a smile on his face, "I have worked hard for you today, and you came in time."
"It's still arranged by the emperor."
Lin Rufeng hurriedly said.
In fact, he never left the capital, and after leaving the Shen family that time, he pretended to leave, but in fact he mixed into the palace with the palace people who came to answer him, and then took people to hide in the emperor's secret passage through the underground passage.
And the exit of the secret passage is the emperor's inner hall.
Today, Concubine Xiao Guifei went to find the secret edict, which was the signal for them to do it.
