Chapter 056: Split into camps
As Nie Xinyao's words fell. The 3,000 forbidden troops quickly moved. With lightning speed. Rushing in the direction of the Assassins.
The Assassins were small though. But it's in the dark. Another surprise attack. In his hand is a bow and arrow suitable for long-range attacks. So many of the forbidden troops haven't had time to get closer. He has been shot by an arrow. Convulsions. Fall to the ground. In an instant, there was no breath.
"Arrows are poisonous. Protect Your Majesty. "Look at the scene in front of you. I don't know who in the forbidden army shouted. Remind everyone.
The forbidden army heard this. One by one, they became more cautious. The shield in his hand is also more stable. The dining room of the nunnery is more airtight. Try not to let any arrows pose a threat to the Empress.
Fights were in full swing outside. And the dining room was not idle. Huai Jin is a medical woman. and won more praise from the queen daughter. Naturally, the empress had to be bandaged with wounds. Although she is acting on the orders of Qingchen. But Qingchen is inconvenient to appear at the moment. And she knows it. The Empress can't have an accident yet. Otherwise, the seizure of the heirs in southern Xinjiang will fall into a white heat. It's definitely not a good thing to do with dusting.
"Miss Huaijin. How is the situation. Nie Xinyu asked.
"It happened so suddenly. I hadn't thought there would be such a thing. The dagger is highly poisonous. Although it is not incurable. But I didn't have the antidote with me. But I've helped Her Majesty suppress the toxicity. There won't be any problems for the time being. It's just ......" Huai Jin frowned. But he didn't finish his sentence.
"Just how. Miss Huaijin. If there's something to do, just say it. Nie Xinyu was a little anxious. Ben immediately asked.
Huai Jin turned his head to look at the Empress. But the empress did not object. He could only open his mouth to say the latter words: "It's just that Her Majesty can't move now." You can only stay in this dining room. Can't go anywhere. You can't do it until twelve hours have passed. Otherwise. Once the toxicity spreads. Even if you get the antidote in the future. It doesn't help. ”
"Twelve hours. That's one day and one night. If the Mother Emperor stays here all the time......" Nie Xinyu sighed with some hesitation. "This is the dining room. There is no place to rest. What's more, it's already May. But the night breeze in the mountains is still cool. The body of the Mother Emperor ......"
"It doesn't matter. It's a bit bitter. I can still stand it. I'd like to see it. Who the hell would dare to be so bold. How dare you make trouble on this holy mountain? The Empress's eyes crossed with a fierce color. The cold light is fierce.
"The Sixth Emperor Sister has already led people to arrest those assassins. Presumably the results will come later. The Mother and wait with peace of mind. Nie Xinyu persuaded.
But just as Nie Xinyu's voice fell. When the Empress nodded slightly. But he heard Nie Xinrou beside him speak: "I said that I know whether the assassin captured by the Six Imperial Maidens was sent down or released." How do I remember. Today, the defense of Gucheng Mountain is all in charge of the Six Emperor Sisters. Now something so big has happened. The six emperor sisters have an unshirkable responsibility. ”
"There are no impermeable walls under the sky. What's more, it's such a big lonely city mountain. If the Assassins had the heart to do something. With the Six Emperor Sisters and these 3,000 forbidden troops alone. And how to resist the material. Nie Xinyu then spoke. "What's more. These Assassins knew how to use all their resources. even pretended to be a nun in this nunnery. And who knows. They weren't planning for a long time. If not. Why is this nun so abnormal? The other masters in the shadows didn't notice it. ”
The words of the eldest princess made Nie Xinrou speechless. I had to look at Nie Xinyu fiercely. A cold light flashed in his eyes. My heart was full of grudges against Nie Xinyu.
Standing in the dining room were people close to the Empress. Except for the royalty. There are also high-ranking ministers of civil and military affairs. Almost everyone heard this conversation between Nie Xinrou and Nie Xinyu. All are wise men. Look at each other. I also understood what these two people meant.
Dare to love is to be a team...... Nie Xinyu had no interest in the throne. In the court, it has always been Nie Xinyao and Nie Xinrou who are fighting each other. Now it seems. The three princesses, who have always been low-key and introverted, and never fought or grabbed, couldn't sit still. It was not the one who arranged the six princesses in front of the public.
What surprised everyone even more. The eldest princess Nie Xinyu has always been neutral. Only by order of the Empress is from. But today. even took the initiative to say good things for the six princesses. Does this represent anything?
Such a mind turned. The crowd quickly made up their minds about it. Decided to take a wait-and-see attitude. After all, the empress has not yet made an empress dowager. Among these princesses. Anyone can become the prince of the future. So they can't talk nonsense either.
"Even so. But who knows if she arranged it. Now she is in the ascendancy. The call to become a prince is also the highest. If something happens to the queen at this time. She is the one who benefits. This account. Anyone counts. Nie Xinrou saw that the ministers did not speak. I had to speak again.
She already remembered the time set for her by the national teacher. Trimester. A long time has passed. If she can't take advantage of every opportunity she can seize. Knock down Nie Xinyao. And then take it yourself. Then after going back, Yu Wuyuan will definitely not let her go.
Not to mention. Today she was prepared herself. It's just that the drama she prepared is not in the dining room. And in the main hall of Jijing Nunnery. As usual managed. The Empress would come to the dining room for dinner after the festival. Then in the afternoon, I went to the main hall to chant for two hours. And then you will leave.
The dining room is in a small location. Not suitable for stabbing. If it is not possible to attack from a distance. Then I want to rush in. Maybe it will affect each other because of the small size of the place. Maybe you'll kill your own people by mistake. That's why she chose the main hall. But I didn't expect it. It was all shattered by a sudden accident. The dining room is far from the main hall. Plus separated by the forbidden army. Can't get here. Naturally, there is no way to act.
"The third emperor sister calculated this account so clearly. Have you calculated it many times in your heart? I think. I'm afraid that those who are prepared today are not the Six Emperor Sisters. It's the Three Emperor Sisters. Nie Xinyu said.
Nie Xinyu rarely has been so aggressive. But today I don't know why. The words he said were aimed at Nie Xinrou word by word. It doesn't seem to put Nie Xinrou into a trap. Never give up.
"Sister Queen. I'm just talking about things. The eldest sister said so. It's too strong. Nie Xinrou suddenly became angry. "The Mother Emperor handed over the responsibility of guarding the Lonely City Mountain to the Sixth Emperor Sister. But not only did she not do it. Instead, the Assassins were allowed to infiltrate. Whether you have the heart or not, you don't want to. After all, it was a threat to the life of the mother queen. It doesn't matter if I'm right or not. It is a fact that the Empress was injured. If not. I wouldn't care so much. It's so exciting......" Nie Xinrou said.
I have to say. Nie Xinrou's number of stages is indeed very high. This is the next word. The blame for improper guards was put on Nie Xinyao's head. It reminded the Empress of her own injuries. Dissatisfied with Nie Xinyao. also explained why he was so anxious. It's a far cry from the steadiness of the past.
This is a strategy of killing three birds with one stone. Success made the Empress frown. looked in the direction of Nie Xinyao outside. Suspicion flashed in his eyes.
Qingchen, who has been hiding in the shadows, sees that it is time. He sneered. Emerged from the shadows: "According to what the three princesses said." The Sixth Highness deliberately arranged all this. But it still makes you stand here. If today's assassins were really arranged by the Six Highnesses. The first one to kill is you. It's also your turn to sow discord here. ”
Qingchen's words were not polite at all. Plus she suddenly appeared. Everyone in the dining room was taken aback. Including the Empress. They all looked at this sudden woman in surprise. Full of vigilance.
"Miss Mu. Nie Xinyu saw Qingchen. Be the first to say hello.
"Your Majesty. The people are under the orders of the Sixth Highness. Secretly protect Your Majesty. But the folk girl didn't think about it. His Highness went to great lengths to ensure His Majesty's safety. But it will still be criticized like this. Qingchen nodded slightly towards Nie Xinyu. Then he turned to the empress and said.
"Jokes. You said you kept the mother safe and secure. But you still hurt the mother. It's also called keeping her safe. Nie Xinrou spoke again.
"What about you, Your Highness. At that time, when the nun made a move. His Royal Highness stood by His Majesty's side. But the Third Highness was indifferent. Instead, I secretly rescued Your Majesty. But he didn't expect to be blamed by the Third Highness. Qingchen spoke again with cold eyes.
"Alright...... Shut up. The Empress saw that the two sides were at loggerheads. He shouted angrily. stopped Nie Xinrou's intention to speak again.
Because of the words of dust. The empress's gaze was fixed on Nie Xinrou. It seemed to want to take Nie Xinrou's face. See what she's thinking.
The words of dust cleaning may not make much sense. But it gave the empress a wake-up call. It doesn't matter where these assassins came from. It doesn't matter if Nie Xinyao's defense is foolproof or not. But when the nun did it. Nie Xinrou is indeed the closest to her. But Nie Xinrou stood aside and didn't make a move. On the contrary, it was the dust in the shadows that deflected the nun's strength in time. to avoid the dagger stabbing her vital point.
"Mother Queen...... What are you looking at me like that. Nie Xinrou was a little creepy by the empress's eyes. Although these assassins had nothing to do with her. But he was afraid that the empress would suspect him. Because she didn't forget. The Mu girl in front of you. How strong is the ability to reverse black and white.
"Tomorrow. You are by Your Majesty's side for personal protection. Be sure to protect Your Majesty. Don't live up to the entrustment of the Sixth Highness. Qingchen didn't care whether the empress had answered Nie Xinrou or not. He opened his mouth and commanded directly. "Nightfall. Come out with me. Help His Highness Meet the Enemy. ”
"Miss Mu. The Sixth Emperor Sister is very intelligent. The number of the forbidden army was also superior. Since the Sixth Emperor Sister entrusted the safety of the Mother Emperor to His Majesty. It's better for Miss Mu to protect the mother queen here. Nie Xinyu looked at Qingchen. Speak.
"Your Highness. The lower part of the Sixth Hall was already injured. If not. A few words from the Third Highness alone could not provoke me to appear from the shadows. But rest assured, Your Highness. My guard's martial arts are also one in a hundred. There he is. Your Majesty is fine. As long as there are people in this room, don't have bad intentions. Just take the opportunity to make trouble. Qingchen said. also deliberately glanced at Nie Xinrou. Speak again. "There are few stabbing guests outside. But the martial arts are strong. And poisoned arrows in his hands. The Forbidden Army did not take advantage. I don't worry about the Sixth Highness. ”
Qingchen finished speaking. and he paid no more attention to the people who were in the house. Walk outside.
