Chapter 345: Murder and Punishment of the Heart, Never Aftermath
The East Pavilion is located in the west of the Huangji Palace, the east side of the Fengxian Palace, which has always been the place where the emperor held small court meetings, and now, it is the place where Zhu Youxiao was imprisoned.
The sky had begun to darken, and the clouds were overwhelming, and the black clouds that had condensed in the sky seemed to be within reach.
Click, click, click.
Droplets of water the size of beans fall from the sky, fall to the ground, and fall on the cornices and tiles.
On the eaves outside the East Pavilion Hall, water droplets continued to fall from a high place, hitting the granite floor.
Tick, tick, tick!!
The sound of the water droplets hitting the ground made Zhu Youxiao, who was lying on the jade couch, extremely irritable-why didn't Yang Changsi, Tian Ergeng and others come?
I'm living like a year now!!
It's torment!!
With a snort, Zhu Youxiao sat up from the jade couch and put on his clothes to see the situation outside.
"Your Majesty, where is this going?"
As soon as Zhu Youxiao lifted the curtain, he heard a gloomy voice coming from behind the jade screen.
Goosebumps instantly popped out of his whole body, and Zhu Youxiao was so frightened that he lost his soul.
Turning his head, he looked fixedly at the black shadow sitting on the chair, with the help of the dark shadow of the moon coming through the window, Zhu Youxiao could vaguely see clearly, it was Wang Tiqian, who was wearing armor and holding sharp.
"I want to be respectful," Zhu Youxiao subconsciously covered his stomach, with a begging tone in his tone.
"The weather is cold, the bucket is on the side of the screen, Your Majesty doesn't have to go out," Wang Tiqian stood up, his thumb moved slightly, and the long sword in his hand was exposed, and the cold light on it flashed slightly.
"I want to go out and breathe!" Zhu Youxiao wanted to persevere.
"After nearly evening, early tomorrow morning, Your Majesty will be able to enter and leave the palace at will," Wang Tiqian took a step and walked three steps in front of Zhu Youxiao, without the slightest mercy.
Looking down and seeing the saber on Wang Tiqian's waist, Zhu Youxiao subconsciously swallowed his saliva - he shouldn't dare to kill the king, right?
"I" Zhu Youxiao was about to give it a go, but as he spoke, he had stretched out his hand towards the palace gate.
Scold!
In the next second, Wang Tiqian had already pulled out the long sword at his waist
Kill!!!!
At this moment, not only Zhu Youxiao, but even Wang Tiqian heard a faint killing cry outside the hall.
"Help is coming!"
Zhu Youxiao knew that it was Tian Ergeng who came!
With a creak, Zhu Youxiao ignored Wang Tiqian's threat, and directly stretched out his hand to open the door of the hall, and then stepped out of the hall.
"Someone, send Your Majesty to the inner hall," the moment Zhu Youxiao opened the door, Wang Tiqian gave an order: "Don't come out without my order!" ”
As soon as Zhu Youxiao came out of the main hall, two armor soldiers on the left and one on the right stepped forward at the door of the hall and clamped him.
"Yes!" With Wang Tiqian's order, two soldiers 'escorted' Zhu Youxiao to the inner room.
"If the matter fails," Wang Tiqian called the two of them: "Then leave Your Majesty with dignity!" ”
Decent!!??
That is to kill yourself?
Hearing Wang Tiqian's order as if his last words, Zhu Youxiao was shocked and shocked: "Let go of me, I don't want to go to the inner room, I obediently go back to the dormitory, let me go"
The cries of killing grew closer.
Without paying attention to Zhu Youxiao's crying, Wang Tiqian turned his head and stood at the door with his sword.
The moonlight was dark, and the raindrops in the sky were almost in a line.
The bean-sized rain fell on the ground, on the armor, and on Wang Tiqian's face.
Tonight's rain carries a little slaughter.
Bang bang, the sound of swords, guns, swords and halberds colliding was extraordinarily loud in the rainy night.
"Guard the temple gates! I'd rather die than retreat! Wang Tiqian gave an order, and dozens of Lin Wei stepped forward and surrounded the palace gate.
"Kill all the thieves and rescue the emperor," Tian Ergeng took the lead, cut down a soldier in front of him to the ground, rushed into the East Pavilion, and looked at Wang Tiqian standing at the palace gate: "Hey, Liaodong soldiers, except for those around Wang Qi, who are considered strong, the rest, it's over!" ”
Looking at the extremely hideous Tian Ergeng and the corpse at his feet, the corners of Wang Tiqian's eyebrows, who were standing at the top of the steps, jumped suddenly.
Most of the Yulinwei sent by Wang Qi to Wang Tiqian were to replace the original manpower, and the new stroke in Liaodong was not strong in combat except for being obedient and reliable.
After all, the kind of elite in a hundred battles around Wang Qi is one in a hundred, and they are really fought out of the flesh and blood battlefield, and one hundred out of 10,000 people is the top of the sky, which is rare.
And most of the people around Tian Ergeng who were born in Jinyiwei and Yulinwei are all veterans, except for those Liaodong soldiers around Wang Qi, they are all strong compared to the rest of the opponents!
It didn't take long, and Tian Ergeng, who was covered in blood, had already stood in front of Wang Tiqian.
Wiping the bloody long knife on his body, Tian Ergeng stepped forward with a sly smile and looked at Wang Tiqian: "Princess, we have met before, give me the emperor, and every year in the future, we will also give you a glass of wine on the grave!" ”
"Qi Guogong will rush back immediately, who will sprinkle wine on whose grave, it is not certain!" Wang Tiqian knew that he was not Tian Ergeng's opponent, but for the entrustment of Qi Guogong and the hope in his heart, Wang Tiqian still stepped forward and wanted to fight with Tian Ergeng.
"Hey, so that you die, then Wang Qi was hacked to death by me a long time ago, and he can't come back," Tian Ergeng smiled insolently, and walked up the steps step by step with a knife.
The heavy rain was pouring down, blurring Wang Tiqian's vision, but the sword in his hand was held tighter.
"Kill !!" Wang Tiqian, who had been a slave all his life, suddenly roared, fearless in life and death, and slashed towards Tian Ergeng.
Bang!
In the next moment, Wang Tiqian's body flew out directly.
"Look for death!" Tian Ergeng lifted his knife forward and walked towards Wang Tiqian, who had fallen to the ground, wanting to make up for it again.
Qi Guogong arrives in !!
A roll call came.
Mixed with the pouring rain, Tian Ergeng only felt that he had heard it wrong, and turned his head to look at it in doubt.
Wang Tiqian, who fell to the ground, also got up with difficulty and looked towards the gate of the East Pavilion.
In an instant, the killing shouts in the entire hall stopped, and he looked at the door of the East Pavilion.
After a while, a group of armored soldiers arrived and surrounded the entire courtyard.
"Not dead?" No matter how slow Tian Ergeng reacted, he knew who was coming, and he had to turn around and flee in a panic.
"Commander Tian, don't hurry up," Wang Qi's voice came, with a greeting between friends.
With Wang Qi's words, a pair of armored soldiers stepped forward and escorted Tian Ergeng, Kong Zuoliang and others.
"Please come out, the emperor," Wang Qi led everyone into the main hall.
Among them, thirteen members of the council, dozens of civil and military officials, and nearly a hundred ordinary people and scholars were all standing in the hall at this moment.
There was a creak, and in the eyes of everyone, the emperor in a martial uniform was invited out by the armor soldiers.
"Wait for you." Subconsciously, when everyone in the hall saw the emperor, they had to kneel down and bow.
"Your Majesty, after many days, we will meet again, this is such a scene, the minister is very sorry" Wang Qi stood there straight, looking at Zhu Youxiao.
This sentence also interrupted everyone's kneeling action.
For a while, everyone looked at the emperor and wanted to see what kind of attitude he had as an emperor in the face of such a domineering courtier?
"You" looked at the white veil on Wang Qi's chest, Zhu Youxiao knew that Wang Qi was injured, maybe an accidental, angry Wang Qi would really cut himself: "I heard that Aiqing was injured, I was very worried and stayed up all night." ”
"One or two chaotic ministers and thieves, Yang Changsi, Zhang Shenyan and others have been cut down by the ministers," Wang Qi stretched out his hands full of blood and said with a smile: "Your Majesty doesn't have to worry. ”
"Huh." Zhu Youxiao almost bit the blood out of his lower lip to suppress the fear in his heart: "Aiqing is fine, and I will rest assured." ”
Looking at the dialogue between the two monarchs and ministers that complemented each other so well, the rest of the people in the hall were silent, the silence of the worldview being subverted - it turns out that talking to the emperor on an equal footing can be so easy, is it so normal?
Subconsciously, the people standing behind Wang Qi slowly straightened their knees, their waists gradually straightened, and their eyes looking at Zhu Youxiao were no longer dodging or cowering, but a kind of direct gaze, a kind of level gaze.
Opposite Wang Qi, Zhu Youxiao's heart was dripping blood and roaring.
Dead, all dead, the loyal ministers who wanted to rescue them are dead, and in the future, I will really live under the control of this demon.
I'm going to fight him!
Fought with him!!
Zhu Youxiao wanted to pounce on it, bite Wang Qi three steps away, tear it to pieces, dig out his heart, liver, spleen and lungs, and see what color it was?
Wolf ambition!
Wolf's heart and dog's lungs!
However, I don't know why, no matter how crazy Zhu Youxiao's heart is and how monstrous his hatred is, his feet seem to be on the ground, and he can't move.
"Your Majesty," Wang Qi's voice came from afar, close in front of him, and seemed to be far away in the sky.
"Wang Aiqing," subconsciously changed his words, Zhu Youxiao turned around, panting.
"There is one thing, I still have to bother Your Majesty," Wang Qi waved his hand, and there were armored soldiers who escorted Tian Ergeng and Kong Zuoliang up, both of whom were tied up at the moment, and were pressed to kneel on the ground, with a whining cry coming out of their mouths, as if begging for mercy, and as if they were cursing: "They trespassed into the palace and deserved death according to the law, and the minister thought that in order to deter Xiaoxiao, His Majesty should personally kill them!" ”
Wang Qi smiled and spoke, that kind of warm smile should have warmed people's hearts, but when Zhu Youxiao heard it and everyone in the hall, it was so crazy and that
Murder and heartbreaking!
This is to make me cut myself off from the loyal ministers of the world!
If Zhu Youxiao really made a move against Tian Ergeng and others, then the north and south of the world, what do the loyal and righteous people in Kyushu think? Will the people of the world still recognize themselves as emperors?
Zhu Youxiao subconsciously waved his hand and refused: "Aiqing said that I laughed, how could I. I am the Ninety-Five, the Son of Heaven, I can't"
"Your Majesty won't? The minister can let people teach you," Wang Qi's eyes condensed slightly, without the slightest smile, and his eyes turned to the silent figure beside Zhu Youxiao: "Little Guizi, you come to teach the Son of Heaven." ”
"Obey, Grandpa Guo," Xiao Guizi, who had been standing beside Zhu Youxiao, bowed down and stood up when he heard Wang Qi's words.
That look, that action, is incomparably natural.
"Little Guizi, you?" Zhu Youxiao suddenly realized, his eyes were about to split, and a wave of despair and horror rose from the bottom of his heart, rushing straight to his brain from the soles of his feet, making people almost suffocated!
The trusting little Guizi beside him, who is almost the only one who can be trusted in times of despair, turned out to be an undercover agent sent by Wang Qi to his side?
So who is trustworthy around you?
Xiao Guizi ignored Zhu Youxiao's anger and surprise, took the knife handed over by the armored soldier, walked directly to Kong Zuoliang, and looked down at the former Imperial Forest Military Academy Captain who was kneeling on the ground, trembling like chaff, with a trace of contempt in his eyes.
Hold the knife, then sink your shoulders and aim the tip of the knife at the heart of your target.
Kong Zuoliang's trembling and whimpering sound became the only sound in the hall at this time.
Hey!
Xiao Guizi grinned, suddenly exerted force, and stabbed forward!
Burst!
It was as if the tip of the knife had directly broken through the fat and muscle groups, and it had come directly to the heart without hindrance.
Laugh at!
The heart is much softer than normal muscle or fat, and the blade passes through it, and there is almost no sense of blockage.
The white knife went in, the red knife came out, and for a moment, I didn't feel any pain.
When everyone looked at it again, Kong Zuoliang was already drooping his head, and he couldn't die anymore.
Xiao Guizi held the blood-dripping dagger in his hand, slowly got up, and then turned his head to look at Zhu Youxiao.
"Your Majesty, have you learned?" Wang Qi spoke again.
Inside the main hall, it is extremely quiet.
Outside the main hall, wind and rain.
The silence that condensed in the air was suffocating.
"Aiqing, I really can't!"
Da Da, Zhu Youxiao took a few steps back one after another, and didn't stop until he was attached to the armored soldier.
"Qi Guogong, it doesn't have to be like this, right?" Sun Chengzong, who was standing behind Wang Qi, couldn't stand it anymore, so he stepped forward and wanted to persuade one or two.
Tonight's rebellion has been completely suppressed, and today's Wang Qi has made everyone frightened outside the Donghua Gate, and he has already killed people's heads, Sun Chengzong feels that it is enough.
It's intimidating enough.
"If Your Majesty doesn't do it, this matter can't be finished!" Wang Qi didn't go to see Sun Chengzong, but stared at Zhu Youxiao: "Your Majesty, kill Tian Ergeng, you can go back to the Qianqing Palace to sleep, the queen and the crown prince are waiting for Your Majesty." ”
I heard Wang Qi talk about the queen and the crown prince.
Zhu Youxiao's last psychological defense line collapsed.
This man is the devil!
Not only Zhu Youxiao, everyone in the hall knows at this moment that in this life, don't go against delusion and Wang Qi.
He will make your life worse than death.
Grasp people's hearts, deceitful like a demon.
"Give me a knife!" In the end, Zhu Youxiao raised his head and looked at Wang Qi.
As soon as the words fell, his own armored soldier stepped forward and handed the dagger to Zhu Youxiao.
Gently flicking the dagger, Zhu Youxiao slowly walked towards Tian Ergeng.
Less than ten paces away, walking extremely slowly, extremely slowly.
At this moment, Tian Ergeng, seeing Kong Zuoliang dying beside him, was already frightened and his soul was not possessed, if it weren't for the armor soldiers holding it down, Tian Ergeng only wanted to flee backwards, escape from here, and he would not come back in this life.
Woowoo!!
Tian Ergeng looked at Zhu Youxiao, who had already approached him, and his eyes showed begging.
Zhu Youxiao was like a walking corpse at the moment, ignoring Tian Ergeng's gaze, slowly squatting down, his left hand on Tian Ergeng's shoulder, holding the dagger in the other hand, and gently aiming at Tian Ergeng's heart.
The ministers in the hall quietly watched the actions of today's son.
Sun Chengzong had already closed his eyes and couldn't bear to look at it anymore.
The next second.
Poof.
There was a faint sound in the hall.
Then there were a few voices in succession, so I didn't hesitate.
Poof, poof!!
Wang Qi stood not far from Zhu Youxiao, looked at this son of heaven, and went crazy and inserted the dagger in his hand into Tian Ergeng's chest continuously.
Blood had spread from its feet and flowed out of the temple.
Finally, Wang Qi's voice sounded: "Someone is coming, please return to the palace."
