133 “Rebirth of the Grand Favor (H, 1v1)” Chapter 126: Assassinated again
byReturning to Chang’an, it is still full of prosperity, bustling with people, and cars and horses like dragons.
It looked no different from when he left, but the imperial city was already turned upside down.
Maybe the people in the city were like Qiqi. After everything was settled, they realized that the dynasty was almost about to change.
Qiqi learned from Zhonghua that the prince and the queen had bribed the female officials around the emperor in an attempt to poison the emperor’s food.Not only was he poisoned, he also recalled Prince Ning, who was stationed at the border in the name of His Majesty.Prince Ning was the emperor’s brother, but he once had a relationship with the empress. At the same time, when His Majesty succeeded to the throne, there were many rumors that His Majesty had changed the late emperor’s edict. It was supposed to be Prince Ning who ascended the throne. There is no way to verify whether it is true or false.
King Ning led troops into the city, obviously to force the palace, but this was only on the surface. In fact, he forged His Majesty’s imperial edict and falsely conveyed the holy will. The person who announced King Ning’s return to Chang’an City was actually Prince Jin.Prince Jin took this opportunity to mobilize the imperial army in the city. He originally planned to take advantage of the chaos to capture King Suining and hijack the East Palace and the Queen. Since His Majesty was poisoned and murdered, it was logical for him to succeed to the throne.
Unexpectedly, His Majesty did not drink the last bowl of poisonous wine, and everything was under Shen Chonghua’s control.
Finally, Zhonghua made the oriole.
Regardless of whether there is any signal from the emperor, the Imperial Army has already obeyed his orders.
King Ning was cut into pieces by five horses. If his soldiers surrendered, they would take off their armor and return to the fields. If they did not surrender, they would be killed on the spot.
The King of Jin was imprisoned, and his hand and hamstrings were cut off, his eyes were gouged out, and his tongue was cut off, leaving him a useless person.
The queen said she committed suicide by hanging from a beam, but in fact it was disguised after someone else had done it.The whole family of the Cen family, the former uncle of the Queen’s mother-in-law, was ransacked and executed. After being tortured, the prince was also exiled to a bitter cold place and was exiled until his death.
Although the emperor did not drink the bowl of poisonous wine on the day he was forced into the palace, before that, a colorless and odorless poison was added to his diet every day. This poison could not be tested with a silver needle. Even if there were eunuchs who tested the poison, it would not be possible to test it unless he took it in large amounts for a long time.
It’s okay to take it once or twice, but after taking it for a long time, His Majesty’s body is already at the end of its strength.
Originally, he would not have fallen ill so early, but because of the forced uterus, His Majesty was so angry that he vomited a mouthful of blood. After that, he coughed up blood every day, and his body declined day by day. Therefore, Zhong Zhonghua, the “loyal protector” who sacrificed his life to save the emperor in times of crisis, naturally acted as the agent of the government, and Zhong Ming assisted from the side.
Zhonghua acted as an agent for state affairs and was busy with important matters. Finally, when he got free time, he went to visit the lantern market at night.
It was only later that Qiqi learned that she thought Shen Chonghua liked Chang’an Street after dusk, but it was actually because she once told him that she liked the lights of thousands of houses.
That happened a long time ago, so long that Qiqi has forgotten it, but he still remembers it.
There was no Su Lianxue at that time, and Zhong Zhonghua had never been favored by His Majesty. An unattended prince would naturally not be involved in any fights or dangers, and his life could be considered peaceful.
She was walking on Chang’an Street at that time. Although she had done a lot of training in the dark and secret base, it was rare for her to see such a bustling city with such a pyrotechnic atmosphere.That day he took her to see him, and her eyes lingered on the rabbit-shaped candy man in front of the candy man stall.
At that time, Zhong Zhonghua bought the candy man and gave it to her as a reward.
Naturally, she was reluctant to eat the candy man Qiqi, so she let it go bad and melted. The room was filled with ants, and her body was covered in bites.Later, after Liu Yue reminded her, Qiqi suddenly remembered that he and Shen Chonghua had had some good times.
Due to the basic qualities of a secret guard, Qiqi pays special attention when there are large crowds and secretly observes the noises of the people around him to avoid danger from outsiders.
Sure enough, when a hidden weapon shot at Zhong Zhonghua, without Qi Qi opening her mouth, Zhong Hua stretched out her figure and pulled her away. Qi Qi also pulled out the dagger from his sleeve: “I’ll chase him!”
When the poisoned hidden weapon was shot out, Qi Qi had already seen the murderer. Zhong Zhonghua grabbed her, pulled out his waist again, and killed two assassins who were close by with his backhand: “No, I told you to remember your identity.”
Not rebuke, but tenderness.
After saying that, Zhong Zhonghua pushed Qiqi aside and started fighting.Zhong Hua’s meaning was obvious. She was his princess, his woman, not his secret guard. He should be the one to protect her.
Leng Xing and Liu Yue also joined in. The reason why they did not discover the assassin throwing the hidden weapon first was because they had been held back by other assassins before. Yes, there were too many assassins in the whole street.
They were dressed like innocent passers-by, as if their masks had suddenly been taken off, revealing the sinister faces underneath.
Since the last assassination, Qiqi once again hid the dagger in his hand, but he didn’t expect that this time, Zhong Zhonghua said that after all the dust settled, someone would still commit murder on the street. I’m afraid the trees were quiet but the wind was not stopping.
Because the opponent had a large number of people, Qi Qi also joined the battle. She was his princess, but she was not a cute little girl. She must have competed with Leng Xing and others in the Jiangnan Villa. Her martial arts skills were no less rusty than before, and she was not slow to deal with these assassins.
But these assassins are obviously different from the last time. They are highly skilled in martial arts.Even on par with Leng Xingliuyue.They should also be dead soldiers, otherwise they wouldn’t be so desperate.
Is it the Crown Prince or Prince Jin?Qi Qi had no time to think, with the flash of swords and shadows in front of her eyes, and the constant sounds of clashing weapons in her ears. She only knew that this was a war in which you would die or I would live.At the same time, she also thought that she should not think about leaving anyone alive to question the master behind the scenes, because all dead soldiers were loyal to their masters, and even if they were not loyal, the poison in their bodies would not make them betray their masters.
There were a few people who were indeed masters. They surrounded Qi Qi at the same time, leaving her powerless for a moment and making it very difficult to deal with them.Because of her entanglement with these three people, Qiqi didn’t notice that a hidden weapon tempered with poison came through the air behind her!
When Qi Qi came to her senses, she heard a muffled groan from Zhong Zhong Hua behind her.
