Chapter 189

 There was deathly silence in the hall. Yang Shao leaned quietly on the shoulder of King Wei, without making a sound. Yang Tong closed his eyes, with two lines of tears rolling down his cheeks.

  Yang Shao's last words were not loud, and no one in the hall could hear what he said clearly. However, many people speculated that the emperor knew that his end was near, so he gave the King of Wei his last words.

  Yang Shao, the Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, has fought for half his life and was awe-inspiring. He pacified the world and governed such a vast empire, and he was once glorious. Even though the emperor is now old, his might is still there. Anyone who sees the emperor will feel fear in their heart. But who could have thought that the Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, who had come all the way through iron and blood, would die at the hands of his own sister? How many heroes were once powerful, but in the end, they all could not escape being reduced to ashes.

  At this moment, everyone suddenly heard a commotion outside the hall, and then they heard a voice from outside: "Feng Ting from the Seventh Division of the Goshawk Corps requests to see Your Majesty. We heard that there were bandits trying to assassinate Your Majesty, so we came to protect you!" The voice was very strong and rough.

  When the people present heard this, their faces turned very strange. Shouldn't the Goshawk Corps be stationed in the northern camp of Tianjing? How could they appear in Quyang Mountain? And the Goshawk Corps belonged to the King of Wei. Was there some secret in this? Or was today's drama actually planned by the King of Wei?

  Everyone turned their eyes to Yang Tong at the same time, only to find that Yang Tong also had a frown on his face, and he did not look like he was pretending. When they were wondering, they heard a woman's cry: "Ah! Help me! Someone come!" Everyone recognized that the owner of the voice was Concubine Nan, Nan Xiangwu!

  Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, only to see that the woman who had intended to assassinate them had unknowingly approached Nan Xiangwu and Tang Yulin. She clasped Nan Xiangwu's neck with one of her jade hands and said, "I'm sorry to bother you, but I have to leave with the two masters. In order to prevent you from being unwilling, I have no choice but to resort to this last resort."

  Yang Tong raised his head, looked at Qin and said, "You intend to cause trouble, and you still want to leave? Why don't you surrender?"

  "Hehehe," Qin laughed tenderly, "I've heard for a long time that Prince Wei Yang Tong loves his wife deeply and loves the princess to the bone. The queen is the princess's biological sister. I wonder if the princess will be heartbroken if something happens to the queen? After hearing about the princess's experience, I wonder if she still has any feelings of nostalgia for her relatives in the past? If not, it will be very difficult for me and the two of you to escape."

  Qin's words made everyone present look unhappy. Everyone knew Tang Yuxian's origin. Pang Yun's family was killed that year, and only Tang Yuxian escaped by chance. Now Yang Yue has married far away in Japan, and Tang Yulin is the only relative left in the world. Putting aside Tang Yulin's identity as the queen, if Tang Yulin also had an accident, Tang Yuxian might... And Yang Tong's name of loving the princess was known to everyone. If Tang Yuxian had any problems, Yang Tong, as the new king, might not be in serious trouble, but he might also be unable to recover. By then, the Great Jin would be in danger.

  Just as Yang Tong was hesitating, Qin threw out another thunderbolt: "Oh, by the way, when I came here, I heard our master say that we have people in Tianjing City. I wonder how they are doing now?"

  "Get lost!!!!" Yang Tong stared at Qin and said, "If any hair of my three sisters-in-law is lost, I will send people to kill you even if I have to chase you to the ends of the earth!"

  "Hehe, I'm so scared, what should I do?" Qin's eyes turned and she suddenly said, "Why don't you let the Princess of Shanyin come and send me off? I see that the Princess is such a weak woman, so pitiful, and she is in your hands. I'm afraid that her delicate body will be ruined by you dirty men. As a woman, I am also heartbroken. I wonder if the Princess can do me the honor of meeting my master?"

  Yang Chuyu looked at Qin for a moment. Today's events were almost all planned by this woman. She also knew that there was a dark hand behind this woman, but she was not afraid. From the moment she agreed to assassinate Yang Shao today, she had been fearless. So she nodded, supported herself to stand up, and walked towards Qin step by step.

  Qin looked at everyone around her and said, "Everyone, the show is not over yet, but I have to excuse myself first, hehe." With a sweet laugh, she led a few people out of the palace. Some people wanted to chase them out, but when they reached the door, they heard a "boom" and smoke filled the air. When the smoke cleared, the figures of the seven people had disappeared.

  Yang Tong's face looked very bad at this time. He said to Cao Tianlin, who had almost recovered, "Cao Tianlin, I command you to dig three feet into the ground to find my sister-in-law. Do you understand?!"

  Cao Tianlin also heard Yang Shao passing the throne to Yang Tong. In other words, Yang Tong was now the emperor, so of course he, as the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard, had to obey.

  At this moment, the hall was in a mess. The floor of the hall was actually turned over, and there were many corpses lying in the hall. The smell of blood filled the hall. Many officials fell to the ground. The scene was really shocking. Then Yang Tong looked at the people present and said, "Everyone should know about what happened today. The Tianyi Sect colluded with the prince to assassinate His Majesty and committed treason. If I hear a rumor, I will kill without mercy!" He couldn't kill everyone present, so he could only threaten like this.

  When you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Apart from the court officials, most of those present were young talents from every household in the capital. They were not fools, so of course they all agreed.

  Yang Tong did not have time to care about them now. From the information Qin had just told him, he learned that there were people in the capital who were planning to cause chaos. He had to return to the capital immediately to deal with it and could not delay any longer. So he ordered the people from the Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice, and the Zongzheng Temple to handle various matters, with Taifu Pei Mo in charge. He then took the remaining guards and the Goshawk Legion brought by Feng Ting and returned to the capital in a hurry.

  Crown Prince Yang Zhi looked towards the emperor, quietly watching the emperor who was already dead. The crown prince's eyes twitched, and the look in his eyes was extremely complicated. At this moment, his heart twitched, and he couldn't help but feel a sweetness in his mouth. He spat out a mouthful of blood mist with a "puff" sound, and fell to the ground...

  Grand Tutor Nie Xingyan saw the prince being poisoned, and a trace of grief flashed in his eyes. He picked up a long sword that had fallen on the ground without hesitation and slashed it across his neck...

  The light of morning sun shone in through the gauze curtains from the window. The weather had become warmer, but the queen looked very cold. She sat back on the couch, covered with a layer of embroidered satin. She looked coldly at the four women in front of her: Nan Xiangwu with a look of shock and anger, Nan Feifei with a relaxed expression, Yang Chuyu with an expressionless face, and Qin, who finally revealed her true face but shocked her as well.

  Nan Xiangwu looked at Qin and Nan Feifei and said angrily, "Qin Jiuyuan, Nan Feifei, who are you and your daughter? What is your relationship with the traitors of the Monotheistic Religion? Tell me!"

  Qin, who was called Qin Jiuyuan, laughed and said, "Oh, my aunt, I did this for our Nan family. You see, although His Royal Highness Prince Zhao made a lot of noise, it was just a lot of noise with little rain. I just helped him push so that he could ascend the throne and become emperor. You see, now the emperor is dead, the prince is also dead, doesn't the throne belong to your son? Hahahaha..."

  "You... do you think I'm a three-year-old child?!" Nan Xiangwu said angrily, her two big breasts heaving violently in anger, "Who is the person behind you?!"

  "My Lady Imperial Concubine," Qin Jiuyuan said, "please recognize the current situation. Now, you are in our hands. If you continue to talk to me in this manner, I may abandon you to such a desolate mountain because of my impulse. You have been pampered since childhood, and I don't know how many days you can stay here. Or, I may feed you a large bottle of aphrodisiac and sell you to a brothel, so that all men in the world can have the opportunity to have the body of the peerless enchantress, the Imperial Concubine Nan. I don't know what will happen then?"

  Every word Qin Jiuyuan said was like a needle piercing Nan Xiangwu's body, making her shudder. She looked around, then reluctantly took a few steps back and sat back on the bed.

  "Knock knock knock." At this time, there was a knock on the door from outside, and a maid came in and said, "My lord, a guest has arrived."

  Qin Jiuyuan looked at Tang Yulin who had been sitting beside her and said, "Haha, Queen, the person who asked for you is here. Come with me for a while. Fei'er will stay and look after your aunt."

  Tang Yulin stood up expressionlessly and was about to leave. Nan Xiangwu beside her was anxious: "Tang... Queen, where are you going? What role did you play in this matter? Did you also participate in the assassination of the emperor?!"

  The queen turned her head, looked at Nan Xiangwu and said, "I don't know. I don't even know where I'm going or what I'm going to do. Goodbye." After that, she turned around and followed Qin Jiuyuan away.

  After Qin Jiuyuan and Tang Yulin left, Nan Feifei, who had been silent the whole time, smiled and asked, "Aunt, Fei'er wants to ask you something. If you were asked to choose, would you like to go to Jiangnan to find your cousin, the Prince of Zhao? Or would you like to return to the capital?"

  "What do you mean?"

  "Hehe, nothing, just asking." Nan Feifei said, and ignored Nan Xiangwu, playing with the knife carving by herself. Looking at the knife flying in her hand, Nan Xiangwu didn't dare to question her with harsh words anymore.

  When Qin Jiuyuan and Tang Yulin arrived in the yard, Pang Jun had been waiting there for a while. He looked at Tang Yulin, then at the smiling Qin Jiuyuan and said, "So Madam Nan is from the Tianyi Sect. Based on Madam's martial arts, I guess she must be the Red-tailed Fox King, right?"

  The beautiful woman glanced at Pang Jun with her beautiful eyes, then giggled and said, "I didn't expect that good-for-nothing Zhao Senluo told Marquis Changning everything. I, Qin Jiuyuan, do have a nickname in the sect called 'Red-tailed Fox King'. I'm sorry to make Marquis Changning laugh."

  "Zhao Senluo, who is he?" Pang Jun asked.

  "Zhao Senluo? Isn't he the old pervert, the Black Brocade Deer King, who was killed by Marquis Changning and Fairy Yan? The old pervert was a little bit perverted, but his martial arts skills were quite good. I have to give him some leeway. No matter how talented that little slut Yan Huixin is, she can never defeat Zhao Senluo alone. And according to the place where the old pervert died, the only person nearby who is qualified to take action is probably you, the landlord, Marquis Changning." Qin Jiuyuan replied.

  "Then why don't you seek revenge on me?"

  "Revenge, hahaha," Qin Jiuyuan laughed even more happily at this time, "Why should we take revenge? The Four Heavenly Kings and the two divine concubines each act in their own way and only obey the orders of Emperor Xuanzhen Dao. What does his death have to do with me? The Dao Emperor didn't even order revenge for him, so why should I and the others feel uncomfortable? Marquis Changning, don't you think this is the truth? Besides, maybe the Dao Emperor wants Marquis Changning to be the new generation of Deer King, but at that time, instead of being called the Black Brocade Deer King, how about being called the Black Dick Lion King? It's both domineering and powerful, hahahaha."

  Pang Jun was not angry because of Qin Jiuyuan's provocation. At this time, Tang Yulin had already walked to Pang Jun's side. He held the queen's jade hand and prepared to leave. He said lightly: "I fell into your trap this time. Next time, you won't be so lucky."

  Qin Jiuyuan said: "Not only is Marquis Changning safe and sound this time, but he also has a beautiful wife like the Queen. Instead of thanking me, he said such a cruel word, which makes me very sad. But if Marquis Changning wants to punish me, hehe, Feifei and I will be waiting for Marquis Changning there. But before punishing me and my mother, please solve your own problem first, hehe, I'm sorry to leave you." After she said that, she turned and left, no longer paying attention to Pang Jun and Tang Yulin.

  Pang Jun frowned, but did not call Qin Jiuyuan, and said to Tang Yulin: "Let's go."

  Tang Yulin nodded and was led by Pang Jun out of the mansion.
