Chapter 116: Angry as a Beauty(1/3)
The people who attacked Prince Shan's Mansion were really vicious and wanted Xuanyuan Mingzhao's life.
Xuanyuan Mingzhao's eyes were cold. He didn't expect that the mastermind behind the scenes would be so bold and would risk everything to do this to him.
If he is destined to die, he will definitely not be able to spare the other person, even if the other person is his biological brother.
Xuanyuan Mingzhao frantically mobilized the internal force in his body, swept away with his sword, and stabbed several people one after another.
Under his cover, Sikong Qingying held the dart in his hand, tried hard to steady his trembling hands, and threw the dart accurately.
Hit the opponent directly in the throat.
Anyone hit by her was killed in one blow, but the darts in her hand were limited. She only killed six people and ran out of darts.
However, the number of opponents was greatly reduced, and Xuanyuan Mingzhao could breathe a sigh of relief.
While everyone was fighting in full swing, the sound of neat horse hooves suddenly came from outside Prince Shan's Mansion. It was very quiet in the middle of the night. The neat sound of horse hooves was like thousands of horses galloping. Only well-trained soldiers can do this. Xuanyuan Ming
Zhao's eyes lit up, reinforcements had arrived! Thinking of this, his hand softened and the soft sword in his hand fell.
His body swayed and almost fell down. Sikong Qingying immediately supported him: "Sixth Master! I'm sorry..." She was the one who caused Xuanyuan Mingzhao to suffer tonight. Otherwise, with Xuanyuan Mingzhao's martial arts, he would have been able to wait unscathed.
Rescue troops come to the rescue.
After the reinforcements arrived, within half a quarter of an hour, all the patrol guards from the Imperial Capital arrived.
When they arrived, Prince Shan's Mansion suffered heavy losses, and all the assassins, after realizing that there was no hope of escape, committed suicide by taking poison.
There was nothing but corpses on the ground.
Everyone in Prince Shan's Mansion, including True Shadow Guard Zero Zero and Fake Uncle Fu, Xiao Ling, and even Xuanyuan Mingfeng, were all injured. Only Sikong Qingying was relatively intact.
The owner of Prince Shan's Mansion, Xuanyuan Mingzhao, was seriously injured and fell unconscious.
Eunuch De invited an imperial physician to treat Xuanyuan Mingzhao overnight.
At the same time, Xuanyuan Mingfeng also privately asked the surviving secret guards to find the miracle doctor Lu Zicong.
Xuanyuan Mingzhao's pale face, covered in blood, was really scary.
He is like a dead man.
Everyone who saw him felt heavy.
As for Prince Shan's father-in-law, he didn't pay any attention to Sikong Qingying. He usually showed no other superfluous concern except false respect. At this time, when he saw that Xuanyuan Mingzhao was seriously injured by Sikong Qingying, he
He no longer concealed his resentment towards Sikong Qingying.
Sikong Qingying didn't notice it at all.
She was very worried about Xuanyuan Mingzhao.
She also didn't expect that as a noble prince, Xuanyuan Mingzhao would protect her at that time.
Since she met Xuanyuan Mingzhao, she has basically done nothing to help Xuanyuan Mingzhao. Instead, she has been causing trouble... Thinking about the current situation of Yuchi Weiran, the dead Yin Ziheng, and the currently unconscious Xuanyuan Mingzhao,
Sikong Qingying couldn't help but have a doubt in her heart. Is she really the Sangmen Star? She has the ability to make people around her unlucky wherever she goes?
In the past, Mrs. Yuchi always said this about her, but she never took it to heart and thought it was superstitious. But now, Yin Ziheng's death and Xuanyuan Mingzhao's coma forced her to face this problem squarely.
When the imperial doctor said that Xuanyuan Mingzhao was seriously injured and it was unknown when he would wake up, Sikong Qingying felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
Sitting on the edge of the bed blankly, my mind was blank, and it seemed that I had even lost the ability to think.
"Master Liu may have a fever tonight. He needs to be carefully taken care of by someone attentive. I will go back to find some medicine and come back later to observe Master Liu's condition at any time."
Eunuch De nodded and said, "Please don't reveal the extent of Mr. Liu's injury."
"Don't worry, Eunuch De. Aren't you still worried about what I'm doing?" This is also a confidant of Xuanyuan Mingzhao, and he will indeed not reveal Xuanyuan Mingzhao's situation.
Xuanyuan Mingfeng also stood blankly by the door, constantly thinking in his heart, who is it, who will attack Prince Shan's Mansion next time?
It's too bad that he is pretending to be a fool now, otherwise he would have gone crazy on the spot and asked people to investigate thoroughly.
But privately, he will still investigate this matter carefully.
"Let me take care of Mr. Liu."
After the imperial physician left, Sikong Qingying treated Mr. De fairly.
Eunuch De looked at her coldly, not hiding the resentment and contempt in his eyes: "Mrs. Sikong is pregnant and I dare not bother you."
Sikong Qingying fell into bed with Xuanyuan Mingfeng because of aphrodisiacs, and Eunuch De was the only outsider who knew about it.
Moreover, Sikong Qingying had married Yuchi Weiran before, and had married General Yin's younger brother, and she was not related to Yin Ziheng. In the eyes of Eunuch De, Sikong Qingying was simply not worthy of Xuanyuan Mingzhao.
It was only worthy of being a plaything. He couldn't understand why his master, who had always been calm and wise, didn't use Sikong Qingying as a human shield at that time, but instead protected Sikong Qingying?
In his opinion, Sikong Qingying's death for Xuanyuan Mingzhao was a matter of duty and a blessing, but for Xuanyuan Mingzhao to get into trouble for Sikong Qingying, it was not allowed by nature, and both humans and gods were indignant.
Sikong Qingying was startled for a moment: "I...I just want to do my best."
"Okay."
Eunuch De was a little impatient and said, "Thank you, madam, for not causing any trouble. You'd better not get in the way here. Please go back and rest early."
When Mr. De said this, he seemed to have completely forgotten that this was Yuyang Courtyard, where Sikong Qingying rested.
Sikong Qingying also felt very uncomfortable. Seeing Eunuch De like this, she thought about how she was pregnant now. Even if she had the intention to take good care of Xuanyuan Mingzhao, she might run out of energy and cause trouble to others, so she had to resign sadly.
.
Xiaoling, Shuqi and the real shadow guard Ling01 and fake Fu Bo followed behind her.
Shuqi's arm was scratched, while Shadow Guard Ling01's injury was more serious. The two of them had just been bandaged by the apprentice brought by the imperial physician.
Shuqi snorted coldly: "What, if you don't let me take care of you, you won't be able to talk well?"
Shadow Guard Ling01 said thoughtfully: "Little Madam, Master Six is now in Yuyang Courtyard, where are you going to rest?"
Xiao Ling patted his head: "Yes, the young lady doesn't have a place to sleep yet. No, I'll go find that guy to arrange a place for the young lady."
Sikong Qingying sighed: "With such a big thing happening in the house, Mr. De must be very busy. I'd better go to Xiaoling's place to sleep for the night first, and let's talk about this matter tomorrow when Mr. De is free."
"But, we live in the servants' room, young lady..."
Sikong Qingying shook his head: "The servants' rooms and the upper-class rooms are all the same. You can sleep there, why can't I?"
That night, Xuanyuan Mingzhao was taken care of by two nimble maids and the imperial physician of Prince Shan's Mansion.
Xuanyuan Mingzhao was seriously injured and lost too much blood. He didn't wake up all night.
The news about the Sixth Prince's Mansion spread throughout the capital on the second day.
Everyone knows that last night, Prince Shan's Mansion was attacked by vicious assassins and suffered heavy losses.
Regarding this news, some people were happy and some were sad.
In Prince Ping'an's Mansion, the Fourth Prince was shocked when he heard the news: "What? The assassins are causing trouble in the Sixth Prince's Mansion? How is the Sixth Brother now? No, I want to see the Sixth Brother in person."
The other princes, I don't know if they were really friendly, rushed to Prince Shan's Mansion to express their concern, but none of them saw Xuanyuan Mingzhao, including the fourth prince.
"Damn it! Our people were completely wiped out..."
"However, Master, our goal seems to have been achieved."
"Yes, Lao Liu refused to come out to see people, and everyone was speculating that he was seriously injured... or even assassinated. Humph, the reinforcements from Prince Shan's Mansion last night were the army... Even if Lao Liu was not dead, the old immortal knew about his training
Even private soldiers can't spare him."
"Master is right, how about master report this matter to the emperor now?"
"My brother, don't I understand? There is no need for me to talk about this matter. My other brothers must have reported it to my father long ago. However... in order not to appear so special to me, so big
I must report this matter to my father."
So soon, the Emperor of Dajing, who had just recovered a little, received reports from many officials, including his own sons, about the assassination of Prince Shan's Mansion and the unauthorized training of private soldiers by the Sixth Prince.
The emperor was furious.
Although he doesn't want to live anymore, his throne and the position of Prince of Dajing can never be coveted by others. They can only belong to him and his Qi'er.
And Xuanyuan Mingzhao dared to train private soldiers without authorization. Doesn't it mean that Xuanyuan Mingzhao had the intention of treason? If he had the intention of treason, it would be a capital crime.
The emperor ordered the imperial guards to inspect the palace.
At this time, Duke De of Prince Shan's Mansion asked to see the emperor.
After the emperor received them, he found out that the reinforcements last night were not Xuanyuan Mingzhao's private soldiers, but the Yin family army trained by General Yin Zihengyin, the patron saint of the capital.
When the imperial capital of Beijing was closed due to the plague, Xuanyuan Mingzhao borrowed it from General Yin to suppress the chaos in the city.
The Yin family army is a family soldier trained by the Yin family. It is not under the control of the emperor. It is reasonable to mobilize the troops without tiger talismans.
However, even for a family as famous as the Yin family, the number of soldiers could not exceed five thousand, but the loan of two thousand soldiers to Xuanyuan Mingzhao was within the acceptance range of Emperor Dajing. Emperor Dajing calmed down and began to thoroughly investigate the evildoers.
The origin of the royal assassin.
As a result, the Dajing Emperor returned to the court and regained power.
Then word spread that the good king Xuanyuan Mingzhao was only slightly injured, making some people restless.
"Xuanyuan Mingzhao is not dead yet?"
"Then wouldn't he be able to go to the emperor and report the master's murder of the prince?"
To be continued...
