After the salted fish is married

Chapter 124

Mastermind

Ji Yu sneered twice: "Gentle, courteous, thrifty? Why don't you ask our royal father if he has done it himself?"

Emperor Pingyuan closed his eyes tiredly and lowered his head. In Ji Yu's view, this was a sign of guilty conscience.Ji Yu sneered and said, "Father, I know that you usually look down on me the most. I am not as kind as the prince, as sharp as the second brother, as firm as the third brother, and as clever as the seventh prince..."

Speaking of the Seventh Prince, he looked at Yan Xining suspiciously.If he remembered correctly, the Seventh Prince Ji Tan should be at Prince Rong's mansion, why didn't the imperial army bring him?

But this is not important, the important thing is: whether it is the prince or Ji Lu Ji Song, they are no longer his opponents.As for Ji Tan, she was no longer a threat.

Ji Yu continued: "You have always disliked me for being stupid and dull, but Father, have you ever thought that maybe I am the one who resembles you the most among all the princes. The blood you shed to ascend to the throne back then is no worse than mine. few."

Hearing this, Emperor Pingyuan opened his eyes.Ji Yu thought that Emperor Pingyuan's eyes would be full of anger, but he just gave him a cold look and then closed his eyes again.

Ji Yu's heart suddenly burst into anger, and it was like this, and it was like this... No matter what he did, Emperor Pingyuan was so neither salty nor light, and he didn't even seem to see him.He swallowed the fishy smell in his throat, kicked Ji Liu casually, put his hands behind his back, and walked towards the dragon chair, his eyes were bloodshot, and sneered: "Father seems to be very disappointed with my son, son." Aren't you happy for my son to be able to have today?"

Emperor Pingyuan leaned on the armrest, closed his eyes and did not move. His old face, which had been tortured by illness for several months, was still as calm as ever.

Ji Yu said provocatively: "But I am more magnanimous than you. You only dared to cover up back then, but I dared to act boldly. Listen carefully: the prince you cultivated so carefully is dead, and the second prince, Ji Liu, will soon become one." A dead man. Not to mention the third prince Ji Song, I abolished him the year before last, and he hasn’t stood up yet. You see, I am the only one who can inherit the throne. I know you are disappointed, but this There is no way."

As soon as Ji Yu finished speaking, exclamations resounded in the hall.Many princes and grandchildren who were captured outside the palace didn't know that the crown prince had been killed. When they heard Ji Yu's confession, they couldn't help cursing.

They couldn't believe that Ji Song's legs were broken by Ji Yu, and they couldn't believe that Chu Liao's prince was killed!The fifth prince, Ji Yu, is so rampant. Is it true that Chu Liao has no kingly law?

Soon some guards raised their knives and walked towards the loudest scolders, and the next moment their heads fell to the ground.Bright red blood splattered all over the ground, and the smell of blood permeated the air.

The whispering stopped abruptly, and none of the people dared to move, for fear that the imperial army's knife would fall on their necks.

The air was stagnant and suffocating.

Taking advantage of Ji Yu's turning to one side of the coffin and focusing on the confrontation with Emperor Heping Yuan, Yan Xining bent down and stepped forward cautiously.Ji Liu's injury can't be delayed any longer, if he doesn't get medical treatment, he will really be cold.

Ji Liu's body twitched slightly, but fortunately he was still conscious.Feeling his body being pulled, he turned his head to look at Yan Xining with difficulty, with surprise and gratitude in his eyes.Now that everyone in the palace is in danger, there are still people willing to help him.

Ji Liang didn't dare to speak, fearing that Yan Xining wouldn't be able to move him, so he tried his best to cooperate with Yan Xining's movements, not daring to disturb Ji Yu who was already crazy.

He wants to live so much, please let him live, if he can survive, Yan Xining will be his savior, and he is willing to use everything to repay Yan Xining.

With difficulty, Yan Xining dragged Ji Liu to the other side of the coffin, and under the cover of the coffin, Ye Linfeng quickly moved to Ji Liu's side.It seems that Ye Linfeng did not dislike him too much because Ji Liu paid Ye Linfeng well for his consultation.

Ji Liu was so cold that he couldn't help shivering.Seeing this scene, Ye Linfeng took out a jade bottle from the medicine box he carried with him.There were brown pills the size of a little finger in the bottle, and Ye Linfeng poured two pills into Ji Liang's mouth.

Fearing that Ji Liu would spit it out, Ye Linfeng lowered his voice and said, "Swallow the life-saving medicine to stop bleeding."

Ji Ling's lips were white, and he wanted to bow his hands to thank Yan Xining and the others, but when he raised his arm, he realized again: his left arm was gone.Ji Liu could only thank in a low voice: "Sisters and sisters, genius doctor, thank you..."

Ye Linfeng didn't have time to be courteous to Ji Liu, so he cut off Ji Liu's left sleeve to reveal his bloody severed arm.A strong smell of blood came over his nostrils, Ye Linfeng frowned, and he said to Yan Xining, "Find him something to bite on."

Yan Xining understood, he took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it to Ji Liang's mouth: "Bite on it, don't make a sound."

Ji Liu was almost numb from the pain, but when the medicine powder was sprinkled on the severed arm, the piercing pain still made him want to scream and struggle.Fortunately, there was a veil in his mouth, otherwise he would have screamed out in pain.

At this moment, he really wanted to pass out, but he couldn't, his mother and concubine were still in the palace.He must survive and protect his mother and concubine.

It was a torture, Ji Ling's complexion was like snow, his teeth were clenched tightly, and his hair was wet with sweat and stuck to his cheeks.In less than a moment, he felt that he had gone to the gate of hell several times.

The pain didn't disappear just because the wound was bandaged. When Yan Xining took the veil out of Ji Zhuang's mouth, Ji Liu was already unconscious.

Ye Linfeng felt for Ji Liu's pulse: "It depends on whether he can survive this test. By the way, he must keep his body temperature. Find a thick coat to cover him, or he will freeze to death. "Although it is the first month of the month, if a seriously injured person lies on the ground, it will only aggravate the condition.

Thick clothes?Yan Xining had a flash of inspiration, isn't he wearing such a thick fur coat?If the cloak that Aunt Zhang made for him could save someone's life, it would be a good deed with immeasurable merit.

The warm cloak fell on Ji Liu, and he opened his eyes with difficulty to look at Yan Xining after feeling the heat.His lips moved for a moment, and then he fell into a lethargic sleep with his head tilted.

After dealing with Ji Liu's matter, Yan Xining breathed a sigh of relief.He stood behind "Ji Song" and blocked Ji Liu with their bodies.At the same time, he was paying close attention to Ji Yu's situation with his ears pricked up.

No matter what Ji Yu said, Emperor Pingyuan didn't seem to care.It wasn't until Ji Yu was about to walk up the steps that Emperor Pingyuan opened his eyes and said calmly: "You claim to be better than your brothers, so have you ever thought about why you are standing here today? "

Ji Yu paused, and then smiled: "Why? As a prince, who doesn't want this position as a prince?" He didn't expect Emperor Pingyuan to be so naive. At this time, he still doesn't understand why he forced the palace. .

Emperor Pingyuan shook his head, and the disappointment in his eyes deepened: "I mean, have you ever thought about... why the imperial army and the reserve army are willing to help you win the throne?"

The biggest support in Ji Yu's hands was the 8 forbidden troops and reserve troops inside and outside the capital.Without these [-] people, how could he break into the prince's mansion and take the prince's life with his ability?How could he easily bring Ji Liu and Ji Song to the Hall of Supreme Harmony?

Ji Yu was stunned for a moment, then opened her hands and laughed loudly: "Of course it's because I'm the one whose destiny belongs to me!"

He and Lin Chuang have known each other since childhood. At that time, Lin Chuang was just a stable boy in the racecourse.Even if he is heartbroken, Lin Chuang will help himself to the top.

As for Jiang Fuping, the general of the reserve army, Ji Yu promised him that when the palace change was completed, he would give him Chu Liao's soldier talisman and make him the most honorable general of Chu Liao.

Ji Yu suddenly stopped laughing, glanced coldly around the hall, and said sarcastically, "It's not uncommon for Lin Chuang and Jiang Fuping to serve other princes, but even if they bring all their wealth to join them, there are many people who are more powerful than them." Go. Even if they have merit, it is not as good as Conglong's contribution."

"From the dragon's merit..." He sneered, "Everyone is like this, father, everyone is like this."

There are few people who give charcoal in the snow, but many people who add icing on the cake.However, most of the people who can remember are those who give charcoal in a timely manner.Today they help themselves to the top, and in the future, prosperity and wealth will be indispensable.

Emperor Pingyuan Emperor Pingyuan suddenly sighed.

Ji Yu was taken aback, and looked up at Emperor Pingyuan.

Emperor Pingyuan said: "If I were you, I would ask myself why. Why do you know about things that have been buried for decades? You have no family background, no connections and money. Encouraging my personal guards to rebel? Ji Yu, Ji Yu, I gave you the word Wen Guang, because I want you to read more books, instead of being someone else's chess piece in a daze."

Emperor Pingyuan's words stabbed Ji Yu's heart like a sharp knife. His face twisted and his breathing became heavy: "What did you say? Who is the pawn?"

Emperor Pingyuan looked through the top of the coffin and looked calmly at the sky outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony.At this time, the eastern sky was faintly white, the darkness was about to pass, and dawn had come.

Emperor Pingyuan sighed: "In recent years, I have been thinking about a question, that is, who should hand over the land of Chu and Liao. Benevolence and generosity are easy to be influenced by others. No brains... All of my children have fatal weaknesses. I want to give you time to grow up, and I want to hand Chu Liao into the hands of the most suitable person."

"I hope that there will be a Mingjun among my children, who can become the existence that the people can rely on. It's a pity that the Mingjun is not you. You only learned my ruthless methods, but you don't know why I am ruthless. Ji Wenguang, you are really a . . . a useless piece of trash."

Ji Yu laughed back angrily: "Who are you calling trash? You can see clearly that I am the one who trapped you here with the royal clan, princes, princes and ministers! Why do you say that I have achieved nothing?"

Emperor Pingyuan didn't want to waste words with Ji Yu at all, so he raised his voice, "Jiang Fuping, are you outside?"

Everyone turned their heads to look outside the main hall. There were imperial guards on duty on both sides of the hall. Where was the shadow of the defenders?Could Emperor Pingyuan be hysterical?The general of the reserve army should be in the reserve army outside the city at this time, how could he come to the Hall of Supreme Harmony?

At this moment, heavy footsteps came from outside the hall.The sound of footsteps came from far to near, and after a while a Kong Wu powerful white-haired veteran walked in.

The person's eyes were as sharp as a falcon, and he held an epee in his hand.Before approaching the Hall of Supreme Harmony, everyone felt a strong sense of oppression.This person is none other than Jiang Fuping, the general of the [-] garrison army.

Jiang Fuping stepped over the threshold with steady steps, and walked forward more than ten steps. He bowed to the direction of the dragon chair with one knee, respectfully, completely unable to see that he would be an accomplice to evil: "At the end Bring Jiang Fuping to the Holy Majesty." With his movements, the cold armor made a piercing sound, adding a chill to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Emperor Pingyuan's eyes were complicated. He looked Jiang Fuping up and down: "Chu Liao has 50 lions and thousands of generals. I trust you the most. But why? You want to destroy my Chu Liao foundation?"

Jiang Fuping sonorously said forcefully: "Your Majesty's words are wrong. The general will be loyal to Chu and Liao. How dare he destroy the foundation of the ancestors?"

Emperor Pingyuan sighed: "I knew today..." Emperor Pingyuan cannot succeed without his confidants, and Jiang Fuping is one of his confidants.He has reused him and guarded against him over the years.It's just that he took precautions, and let him take advantage of the loopholes.

Emperor Pingyuan was old, and his whole body ached after just sitting for a while.He slowly changed his posture, and said: "I knew that today would be the day when the forbidden army surrounded the Hall of Supreme Harmony without a call. It's really embarrassing that the former comrades will end up like this today..."

Ji Yu had known for a long time that Jiang Fuping had a feud with Emperor Yuan, and he took advantage of it.Now the initiative is in his hands, and everything is under his control. He said happily, "Father, even if you talk about the past with Old General Jiang, nothing will change."

Emperor Pingyuan supported the dragon chair and sat up straight. He ignored Ji Yu and looked directly at Jiang Fuping: "Let me guess what you plan to do next."

"Today everyone inside and outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony will die. The fact that the fifth prince Ji Yu forced the palace will spread to every corner of Chu and Liao. He is a traitor and traitor, and you, Jiang Fuping, will pick yourself out in the name of the Qing emperor. Finally, you will cultivate A puppet was the emperor of Chu and Liao, at that time you were behind the scenes controlling the court for the king, right?"

Jiang Fuping didn't make a sound, but his eyes lit up.Undoubtedly, what Emperor Pingyuan said hit his heart, he deserved to be a man who can be an emperor, and he made his heart clear.

Ji Yu's complexion changed, and he suddenly looked at Jiang Fuping: "Old General Jiang?

Emperor Pingyuan couldn't stand it any longer: "Haven't you noticed? He hasn't paid attention to you since he entered the palace."

Chu Liao ruled the world with filial piety, and a person who killed his brother and father would be condemned by the people of the world. Ji Yu was destined to be rejected by the people of Chu and Liao from the moment he launched the palace coup.In addition, he slaughtered a lot of people for the sake of his position, his reputation is already rotten, and those who assisted him in his position will not be well received.

For Jiang Fuping, Ji Yu's bargaining chip was far worse than being the regent himself.Why did he put away his clean and good name and get dirty?

Ji Yu's face twisted again, and a great panic suddenly arose in his heart.

How is this possible?But Jiang Fuping's silent silence told him the truth.

The out of control of the situation made his scalp numb and his fingertips tremble. He looked at his fingertips and felt extremely ridiculous for a moment: Was he being used?He, who has always only used other people, was calculated by others?

It's ridiculous that he thought he was in power, but he was actually just a clown.

Jiang Fuping glanced at Ji Yu calmly: "Rebellious ministers and thieves, everyone can punish them."

Having said this, Jiang Fuping didn't intend to hide it anymore: "The fifth prince Ji Yu led his troops to force the palace to rebel and killed all the princes, ministers, princes and grandchildren, but it was too late to save Jiang Fuping, and he only rescued the little highness in the fire. Don’t be left alone for a day, and at the end of the day, you will swear allegiance to the royal family of Chu and Liao, and will do everything in your power to assist Your Highness.”

The archers outside the main hall are already in place, and later all arrows will be fired, and then all the evidence will be destroyed with a single fire.

Is the surname Ji more noble?It's time for a change of owner for this thousand miles of land.

Ji Yu's blood rushed to his brain, his breath was heavy, and his voice was hoarse: "Jiang Fuping, how dare you deceive me!"

Jiang Fuping gave Ji Yu a sneering look. He obviously didn't say anything, but Ji Yu saw a clear meaning in his eyes: I blame you for being so stupid that you came to the door yourself.

Ji Yu's face was contorted fiercely, and he pulled out a bright long knife from the waist of the imperial guard beside him and rushed towards Jiang Fuping.

Although Ji Yu had some background, but after several days of vigil for Ning Pin, his mental and physical strength was close to the verge of collapse.Before he could rush to Jiang Fuping, he sprained his ankle and fell heavily to the ground.The long knife slid out without knowing where it landed.

The corners of Jiang Fuping's lips twitched a few times, and he silently took a step back, as if Ji Yu was a dirty thing.

There seemed to be thousands of voices talking in Ji Yu's head at the same time, and the noisy voices forced him to have nowhere to hide.He turned his head with difficulty and looked at the coffin in the lobby, his vision gradually blurred.

Even if his mother died, even if he wanted to give his mother a decent funeral, he still made a joke of him in the end...

Tears were hot, her throat trembled, Ji Yu gritted her teeth tightly to prevent the choked sound from coming out of her throat.

He made his mother look ugly again...

"A trash who accomplishes nothing." "No brains..." "Wen Guang, you are mother's hope." "I can't take it anymore, when will you come pick me up?"

All kinds of voices merged together, giving Ji Yu a headache.

Looking at the crazy Ji Yu, Emperor Pingyuan's eyes flashed a trace of unbearable.But when he saw the blood on the ground, that trace of unbearable dissipated.

Jiang Fuping looked at the sky: "It's getting late, the last general invites the saint to go on the road."

Hearing Jiang Fuping's words, the female relatives in the palace burst into tears.The Holy Majesty is forced to go on the road, do they still have a way out?

Yan Xining anxiously looked at the sky outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony, dawn was breaking, where are Ji Song and the others?Did something happen to them on the way?

Suddenly there was a loud eagle cry outside the hall, and at the same time a white light rushed into the hall.Looking closely, it was a nearly pure white sea dongqing, which circled twice in the hall, and then landed on Concubine Ning's coffin.

Hai Dongqing shook her feathers triumphantly, and the diamond-shaped pattern on her neck became more and more obvious.It raised its neck and barked twice, the anxiety in Yan Xining's heart turned into ecstasy: "Blue Wind!"

Cang Feng followed Ji Song and the others from Liangzhou, when Cang Feng came, Ji Song also arrived!

At this time, the sound of arrows came from all directions, and the imperial guards ran in panickedly outside the door: "General! The Chiling Army has come in!"

Jiang Fuping was in doubt: "Who did you say killed in?" Was it his old eyesight?Isn't Chiling Army far away in Liangzhou?How could it be in the capital?

Suddenly a figure flashed in front of Jiang Fuping, the next moment Jiang Fuping's chest seemed to be hit hard by a giant hammer, his body flew up and hit the pillar on one side heavily.

Ye Linfeng slowly put down his legs, and he said coolly: "Deaf, blind, insomnia, night sweating, I still want to be emperor after this." He said to the people near the gate: "Close the gate!"

Ye Linfeng's sudden appearance shocked everyone inside and outside the hall.Emperor Pingyuan stared at Ye Linfeng's figure, his eyes lit up with surprise.

Jiang Fuping didn't expect that there was a master in the hall, and just as he was about to stand up to meet the enemy, a long knife fell on Jiang Fuping's neck.The person who restrained Jiang Fuping turned out to be Yan Xining, and the long knife that slipped out of Ji Yu's hand just now slipped to Yan Xining's side.

Yan Xining picked up the long knife at the right time. She wanted to keep it for self-defense, but she didn't expect it to be more useful.There is a saying that to capture the thief first, capture the king. With Jiang Fuping in hand, are you still afraid of the imperial army and the reserve army coming in disorder?

Yan Xining threatened: "Don't move, or you will die." He knew Ji Song, and Ji Song was nearby. As long as he could restrain the rebel leader Jiang Fuping, he would give Ji Song a chance to win.Even though he has never put a knife on anyone's neck, even if he has never killed anyone... Yan Xining gritted her teeth, her gaze was firm, now is the time to think about these things, he is fighting!

Jiang Fuping looked at Yan Xining disdainfully, with Yan Xining's powerless appearance, how dare he restrain him?

Don't think that he doesn't know about Concubine Rong, in his opinion, Yan Xining is just relying on her good face to climb the ladder.How could he be restrained by this kind of person?

Jiang Fuping sneered and raised his hand to grab the sword, but Yan Xining was faster than him.

Although he failed to learn the true biography of the soldiers of the Chiling Army, he could understand it by watching them practice a lot.Just like now, Yan Xining became cruel, raised his hand mercilessly and cut Jiang Fuping's neck, and the bright red blood dripped down the damaged skin.

With burning eyes and no fear, he threatened again: "Old General, please cooperate a little bit, otherwise you won't know where the next knife will fall."

The stinging pain from his neck made Jiang Fuping feel alert, he stared and saw a murderous look on Yan Xining's body!

Jiang Fuping was startled, Princess Rong really wanted to kill him!

The imperial guard outside the door heard the movement in the house and wanted to enter the door. Ye Linfeng sprinkled a handful of white powder casually, and the imperial guard covered his face with the powder and screamed.Ye Linfeng yelled at the people on both sides: "What are you doing in a daze?! Close the door!"

The concubines in the Hall of Supreme Harmony cherished their lives very much. Now that they saw hope, they rushed forward and tried to close the door.However, there were still forbidden troops rushing in. The first forbidden army who rushed in saw the restrained general at first sight. He swung his long knife and slashed at Yan Xining with a loud shout.

However, someone shouted louder than him, and everyone was shocked to see King Rong stand up from the wheelchair.Not only did he stand up, but he also aggressively rushed towards the forbidden army who was trying to attack Yan Xining.

I saw "King Rong" took out two one-foot-long iron rods from his sleeves, and the ends of the iron rods were connected by iron chains.This is a nunchaku, a short weapon commonly used by the Chu and Liao armies. When hit on the head with an iron rod in close combat, it can cause bleeding from the head at least, and the brain will burst at the worst.

In an instant, he rushed behind the imperial army, and the nunchaku danced with afterimages, and the sound of colliding with the armor was crackling, louder than the sound of spring firecrackers.

The Forbidden Army that sneaked up only had time to scream, and then fell limply. "Prince Rong" had blood on his face, he protected Princess Rong, swung his nunchucks and made a handsome pose: "Hmph! How dare you sneak attack my young master!"

After practicing martial arts for so long, he can finally show his skills in front of his respected young master!I don't know if his handsome young master has seen it.
