Chapter 154: Did King Chu Jiang take a fancy to Shen Ning?
Not to mention, the bloodline thing is quite wonderful, and Shen Ning is not afraid of him at all.
During this time in the East Palace, Shen Ning heard the most rumors from the palace maids that King Chujiang said.
It is said that this person is more terrible than the king of Hades, killing people like hemp, and he can scare children to death when he sees them.
When I saw it today, the rumors really couldn't be believed.
"Today, the prince pretended to be sick, and the princess boiled a poisonous decoction by the hand of the imperial doctor and wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of the prince, and your people knocked over the decoction in my hand, obviously saving the prince." Shen Ning put down the teacup and looked at Hengjing. "Am I right?"
"Well, go ahead." Hengjing folded his hands, supported his chin, and looked at Shen Ning carefully.
This woman is not bad-looking.
It fits his eyes perfectly.
He Hengjing has not been close to women all these years, and it is rare to have a woman who can get in, if there is no problem with checking his identity, he will not be bored if he wants to stay by his side.
"King Chu Jiang protected the prince's life today, and he is going to see the prince next, so naturally he wants to discuss the matter of Princess Hengyuan, am I right?" Shen Ning smiled.
Constant nods. "Indeed, you are very smart. Martial law suddenly became in the palace, I rushed to the imperial capital in advance but could not enter the palace to see the emperor's uncle, Hengyuan's people had already controlled the various palace gates, and the king was naturally worried about his nephew, after all, if something happened to the emperor, the crown prince would be the only heir to the throne. ”
"Instead of worrying about the crown prince and the emperor, King Chu Jiang should reflect on himself, why did he try to find a fake princess back then, but he didn't find that her ambition was so big that she wanted to swallow you too." Shen Ning laughed mockingly, it was obvious that Hengjing had underestimated Hengyuan.
Hengjing's eyes sank instantly, and he raised his hand to strangle Shen Ning's neck. "I'm interested in you, but unfortunately, you know too much."
"You'd better not kill me, because I'm here to help you." Shen Ning didn't panic at all, and she wasn't afraid that Hengjing would kill her, because Hengjing wouldn't.
"Interesting...... Hengjing really let go of Shen Ning.
Xiao Junhe, who was staring at the two of them in the dark, breathed a sigh of relief, he was almost about to make a move.
"If my guess is right, the prince first brought the fake Hengyuan back to Zhao State, he wanted to use Princess Hengyuan to win the emperor's favor, and then further control the emperor, overthrow the emperor, and when the emperor dies and the prince is incompetent, use the power of you and Hengyuan to force the prince to abdicate, you come to the throne, am I right?"
Shen Ning knew that Hengjing would never protect the prince for no reason.
He didn't let the prince die, just wanted to keep the prince to balance Hengyuan.
Over the years, Hengjing must have also noticed Hengyuan's ambitions.
"That's right." Hengjing did not deny it, but directly.
"It's a pity that Hengyuan has done too many things behind your back, and even you have been deceived." Heng Yuan is too smart and too ambitious, what she did to the emperor, elevating the imperial power, eradicating dissidents in the court, replacing the old people, and even secretly eradicating the people of the King of Chujiang and replacing them with her own people, wanting to make the court exchange blood, if Hengjing can't find it again, it will be too dull.
"Hengyuan, this person, his ambition is too heavy." Hengjing frowned, obviously mentioning Hengyuan's anger was extremely strong.
"You found a lot of people to approach Hengyuan, and after you were sure that she was not easy to control, you wanted to kill her, but unfortunately, it was too late, because her wings were already full, and you couldn't kill her." Shen Ning said a little too much, poured herself another cup of tea, and asked intimately. "Lord Wang, do you drink?"
Hengjing narrowed his eyes, the corners of his mouth rose, and he took the teacup handed by Shen Ning. "What's your name, and what is your purpose in approaching the prince?"
"My name is Shen Ning, and I have a grudge against Hengyuan, I just want to get rid of Hengyuan." Shen Ning wouldn't be stupid enough to tell Hengjing her identity now.
There are too many uncertain factors in Hengjing, so you have to wait for safety.
"Shen Ning ......" Hengjing repeated Shen Ning's name. You continue. ”
"Today, the prince and I sneaked into the palace, and found that the princess's people had already changed the palace for blood, and now the royal forest guards are all Hengyuan's people, and she made the emperor addicted to cultivating immortals, and listened to the words of the demon to take the golden pill, and now she is a living dead who can't speak."
Hengjing's face sank instantly.
Hengyuan actually made a move on the emperor.
She wanted the emperor to be a puppet, at her mercy, to control the court.
"Over the years, this king has been restrained by the Khitan barbarians and guarded the north at the border pass, but I didn't expect it...... Taking advantage of this emptiness, Hengyuan had already grown wings and was ready to rebel? Hengjing raised his hand angrily and slammed it down the stone table.
The stone table clicked and shattered......
Shen Ning was quick to hold the teapot with one hand and the teacup with one hand, she was so thirsty that she had no drink after this fall.
"I guess, Hengyuan concealed the emperor's body and tricked you into the imperial capital, so that he wanted to get rid of you and then get rid of the prince, so that she could blackmail the puppet emperor to order the princes." Shen Ning narrowed his eyes, observing this Hengjing's attitude.
"Wishful thinking, want to kill this king?" Hengjing sneered.
"Lord Wang, don't underestimate Hengyuan, if I don't come today, you will die in the imperial capital." Shen Ning told Hengjing very directly, and she was not afraid that he would be angry.
"Little girl, you seem to be underestimating this king." Hengjing raised his chin unconvinced.
"Lord Wang, you are unrivaled in killing enemies on the battlefield, but it's a pity...... In terms of scheming and ruthlessness, it is far inferior to Hengyuan. Shen Ning spoke again. Let me ask you, how many people did you bring with you to Kyoto? ”
"Hmph, how many more people does this king need to bring?" Hengjing snorted coldly.
"Hengyuan just knows you too well, proud and conceited, and disdains to lead troops into the imperial capital, so he has already set a trap, if you don't believe it, let people go tonight to find out if there are already troops stationed outside the imperial capital, that is all Hengyuan set up for you."
Hengyuan was afraid that he would not be able to kill Hengjing at the banquet, so he laid a net of heaven and earth, so that he could not escape.
"Hengyuan has made no secret of your murderous intentions, I'm afraid that she will already be aware of your sneaking into Kyoto." Shen Ning looked around. "If I'm right, her people must be staring at us."
Hengjing looked at Shen Ning more and more curiously. "You're not afraid?"
Shen Ning smiled. "Of course not."
Because she knew that Xiao Junhe was in the imperial capital.
She was inexplicably at ease, so she was not afraid of anything.
"I'm scared, I won't come." Shen Ning said seriously.
Hengjing sneered, and slammed the dagger in his hand at the tree trunk in the distance. "This person, is it yours, or is it Hengyuan's?"
On the tree, Xiao Junhe frowned, dodged the dagger, and jumped off the trunk.
It was discovered.
This Hengjing is really powerful.
I'm afraid that his hiding place has already been discovered.
That's fine, then you don't have to hide.
"Ah!" Shen Ning stood up abruptly and glanced around. "Why are you here?"
"You have been targeted by Hengyuan's people, and I have solved it." Xiao Junhe walked to Shen Ning's side, directly held the person in his arms, and looked at Hengjing warningly.
They were all men, and he knew very well the eyes of Hengjing when he looked at Shen Ning.
Full of interest and desire.
