Chapter 82(2/2)
But...will Yin Ziheng doubt Bai Yuanjun and the others?
"Brother, do you know who carried out this assassination?"
"I don't know, but to assassinate the emperor at a sensitive time like the marriage between the two countries last night, it must be someone from the Huiguang Dynasty or the Shoyi Dynasty... Xiaoying doesn't have to worry, the elder brother will solve this matter by himself."
Sikong Qingying was very ashamed when she heard this and blamed herself because she concealed the truth about Yin Ziheng's incident.
However, there is no way she would betray her own brother or someone as close as a mentor or friend.
"Then...how is the emperor doing now?"
"Fortunately, we responded in time and the emperor was not injured, just a little frightened."
Sikong Qingying breathed a sigh of relief. If the emperor was fine, she would not blame Yin Ziheng. She did not want to hurt her seniors and brother who were close to her, and she felt guilty for hiding Yin Ziheng. If the emperor was fine, the guilt in her heart would be slightly relieved.
Yin Ziheng didn't sleep a wink last night and was very tired now. Seeing Sikong Qingying's panda eyes, he decisively pulled Sikong Qingying to catch up on his sleep with him, and the two fell asleep holding each other in broad daylight.
Little did they know that yesterday's assassination sent shock waves. In addition to causing an uproar in the capital, Zhong Lizhan, the princess of the Huazhou Dynasty who was getting married to the capital, was also uneasy because of it.
On the second day, when Zhong Lizian sent the envoy of the Huazhou Dynasty away, this beautiful woman with a pure and refined face, her eyebrows raised, coldly shouted at the envoy of the Huazhou Dynasty: "You are so brave.
, actually changed the plan without authorization and acted on his own without permission?"
The messenger knew that this princess was the most beloved daughter of the emperor of the Huazhou Dynasty. Even if she got married, he did not dare to make her angry. He immediately clarified: "Princess, what happened last night was not done by us.
Innocent."
After hearing this, Zhong Lizian blinked her clear eyes, bit her pink fingertips, and thought thoughtfully: "You mean, besides us, there are people plotting the Mingjing Dynasty? Or... this is the Shouyi Dynasty.
What they did with the Minghui Dynasty to destroy the marriage between our two countries? It doesn’t make sense... My father has obviously negotiated with them..."
Although she volunteered for this marriage, she was not very interested in the third prince, but was very interested in the sixth prince, Xuanyuan Mingzhao, because the temperaments of Xuanyuan Mingzhao and her father were very similar.
Unfortunately, her father said that the sixth prince was too difficult to deal with and insisted on letting her marry the third prince so that he could take advantage of him.
"Princess, in addition to us, some people in the Mingjing Dynasty are not without suspicion... After all, the sons of Emperor Mingjing have all grown up."
Zhong Lizian, who has grown up next to the emperor of the Huazhou Dynasty since she was a child, understands the words of the Huazhou envoy very well. Her father is often suspicious of several of his brothers, and her adult brothers are also jealous of her father.
The emperor's throne is eagerly awaited.
She was a little upset thinking about it, wondering if others would hurt her father after she left.
But... soon, after the matter in the Mingjing Empire is over, she will return to the Huazhou Dynasty.
Now that she knew that the assassination of Emperor Dajing yesterday had nothing to do with people on her side, she felt relieved: "In that case, you can go back. Everything will go according to plan. I will resolve the matter here in the shortest possible time.
Return to my father."
"yes."
"By the way, this is the handkerchief I personally embroidered for my father. Remember to hand it over to your father and tell him that Xian'er will return to Huazhou within a year!"
When Emperor Weizong of Dajing was assassinated, although he was not injured, he was greatly frightened and became ill because of it.
It can be said that the illness came like a mountain, and the illness healed like silk. After this illness, his health never recovered.
The prince, who had been ill for more than 20 years, stayed in front of his bed all day long. Not only did Emperor Weizong's illness not recover, but his own body bones collapsed first.
Yin Ziheng, who originally thought he would be free after the Huazhou Dynasty envoy left, was often called to the palace to accompany him because of Emperor Weizong's suspicion. After the assassin sneaked into the palace, Emperor Weizong often suspected that there was someone around him.
A lot of assassins are lurking.
Three days after Emperor Weizong was assassinated, Sikong Qingying received a letter from Bai Yuanjun. The letter said that her brother Sikong Wangyan had been taken back to his hometown of Jizhou by Bai Yuanjun, and also said that the killer Lu Jiu would come to her in the near future.
Get something here.
This letter was obtained by Sikong Qingying openly. In the eyes of outsiders, it was just a family letter. After reading it, Sikong Qingying felt completely relaxed and immediately burned the letter.
I don’t know whether it’s because Haruhi gets sleepy easily or for some reason, but Sikong Qingying has become less and less fond of getting out of bed recently, and has become a little sleepy.
The assassination of Emperor Weizong made her sweat for Yin Ziheng, but as time passed, she was no longer so worried. Facts have proved that even after the assassination, Emperor Weizong still attached great importance to relying on Yin Ziheng---
Sikong Qingying was very fortunate that Sikong Wangyan's assassination did not have any negative impact on Yin Ziheng.
The martial law in the Imperial Capital was relaxed as time went by.
In the general's mansion, Sikong Qingying and Shu Qi were competing in Qinggong. Sikong Qingying's level was naturally not as good as Shu Qi's, so for the sake of fairness, Uncle Fu manipulated Shu Qi's acupuncture points so that Shu Qi's skill could only be
If you use 20 to 30%, the gap between the two will not be big.
At this time, Sikong Qingying and Shu Qi both jumped to the front of the courtyard of the General's Mansion. Sikong Qingying took a look outside and saw that the bustling streets in the past were in chaos, with people scattered in all directions, and accompanied by sharp noises.
cry.
Before Sikong Qingying could react, Shuqi said: "Young lady, I'm afraid something might happen again, so let's go down first."
Sikong Qingying nodded, and said that in the year or so since he arrived in Dajing, Dajing has been peaceful, but since he got married to the Huazhou Dynasty, Dajing has become restless, with incidents happening every now and then.
Is there something wrong with the Huazhou Dynasty? This thought flashed through Sikong Qingying's mind.
Shuqi was still guessing what happened on the street with Sikong Qingying, when he saw Uncle Fu flying towards the two of them with wind at his feet, and said with a very ugly face: "The general has been assassinated!"
Sikong Qingying looked at Uncle Fu, unable to react for a while. When he realized that the general was Yin Ziheng, his eyesight went dark, and after a while, the whole person fell down.
"Little madam!"
