In Zhaohua Courtyard, the wine has passed three rounds and the dishes have passed five flavors.
It looks like the guests and hosts are enjoying themselves, but in fact, there is a hidden murderous intention.
Empress Lu was still smiling, but Qin Jieyu no longer felt the slightest sense of intimacy.
On the contrary, she was sweating profusely. Every time Empress Lu said something, she had to think twice before she dared to reply.
Otherwise, if you are not careful, you will fall into the other party's language trap.
In just half an hour, the deal between her and King Jing was almost cheated out.
She even suspected that the other party already knew King Jing's plan.
Otherwise, why would the prince invite the queen, the giant Buddha?
As a result, she was currently riding a tiger and couldn't get off, and she only hoped to end this banquet as soon as possible.
Seeing her like this, Queen Lu smiled and was about to ask a question when bursts of noise came from outside the door.
When Empress Lu heard this, she frowned and said, "Who is making noise outside the door?"
Princess Huaiqing also frowned and said: "There is a guard of honor for the Queen standing outside the door. Logically speaking, except for the father, everyone else should avoid it."
"Now instead of avoiding it, the noise is getting louder and louder."
"I'm afraid...it's coming for us."
While speaking, Princess Huaiqing glanced at Qin Jieyu, only to see that she was equally surprised and a little bit happy to have finally been rescued.
For a moment, he was even more confused.
Not the reinforcements she invited? Who dares to take the risk of offending the Queen Mother and get involved in this troubled waters.
The noise outside the door became more and more intense, and finally the door of Zhaohuayuan was pushed open.
Ji Ling's eyes were sharp. After looking around, he walked straight towards Queen Lu and the other four people.
"I am in a humble position and am wearing armor, so it is difficult for me to salute. I hope the Queen will forgive me."
"It doesn't matter."
"I just remember that the Royal Forest Army is responsible for protecting the palace. Commander Ji may not be able to enter the harem." Empress Lu said tepidly, but her tone couldn't help but bring out a hint of questioning.
Liu Yu even narrowed his eyes slightly, frowning as he watched more and more Royal Forest Army officers pouring in.
Apart from Liu Jing's people, he couldn't think of any other possibility to disrupt the situation at this time.
But...you, Ji Ling, are the president of the 50,000-strong Royal Forest Army. You are in charge of guarding the palace. It can be said that you hold a high position of power.
What's more, aren't you a martial arts fanatic? You should not be interested in things like money and power.
How can you be Liu Jing's person?
If Ji Ling is really Liu Jing's man, then their subsequent plans will be hampered at every turn.
How could my father feel comfortable letting such a person stay by his side to protect his own safety?
Liu Yu couldn't figure it out, really couldn't figure it out.
It feels like you are playing a MOBA game vigorously and have jumped over the tower several times to kill the opponent alone, but when you are about to win, someone jumps out and tells you that your front tooth tower has rebelled!
Isn’t this a big deal in the world?
Seeing this scene, Qin Jieyu realized that a turning point might be coming, so she cleverly remained silent.
At first glance, Ji Ling came here for the Queen and the others. No matter what, it would not affect him.
Among all the people, only Huaiqing was the calmest. He asked in a calm voice: "Why did Commander Ji come here this time?"
When Ji Ling heard this, he didn't say much. He just waved his hand and said, "Arrest Prince Liu Yu!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.
Queen Lu slammed the table and stood up on the spot.
He showed a rare angry look and said, "Do you know what you are talking about?"
Liu Yu also stood up suddenly and shouted angrily: "Ji Ling, you are so brave!"
"I'm right here, let's see who dares to touch a hair on my head!"
"Running deep into the harem to arrest the current prince, do you think the world belongs to your surname Ji?"
After Liu Yu finished speaking, his anger surged, and he immediately stepped forward and snatched the weapon from Ji Ling's hand.
Qin Jieyu was so frightened by this scene. The development of the situation was a bit magical. She couldn't understand it, but she was greatly shocked, so she took a few steps back to show that she had nothing to do with it.
At this time, Huaiqing was still the calmest. He stood up, held Liu Yu down, and walked to Ji Ling. As he strolled in the court, a sense of majesty emerged spontaneously.
"reason!"
Huaiqing only uttered two words softly, but the soldiers of the Royal Forest Army present suddenly felt the urge to kneel down.
At this moment, the sense of majesty exuded from Huaiqing made them feel that they were not facing Princess Huaiqing, but Emperor Jing Xing.
They had always known that Huaiqing was outstanding, but they really couldn't imagine why a woman could erupt with such power.
Even Ji Ling glanced slightly sideways. He, who always spoke briefly, explained for the first time: "This morning when the Royal Forest Army was patrolling, they found the sound of fighting in the East Palace. After going in to check, they found that there was no one."
"But there is a dragon robe hidden on the bed in the prince's palace."
"On top of the document, there is a witchcraft villain, and what is written on it is His Majesty's name."
"After reporting to Your Majesty, I came here to capture Prince Liu Yu."
boom!
As soon as these words came out, it was like a bolt from the blue.
Everyone present was chopped into pieces, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Liu Yu screamed loudly: "Before I went out, there was only a quilt on the bed, and there was nothing on the documents. How could you be born out of thin air in just one or two hours? The dragon robe and witchcraft villain you are talking about?"
To be honest, he was a little panicked.
Because throughout the dynasties, it was taboo for a prince to overstep his bounds and seek to seize the throne, and it was a capital crime!
But more than anything, it’s anger!
Rage after being wronged!
Liu Yu has been like this since he was a child. It's what he did. If you tell him, he won't care and act like a rogue who is not afraid of boiling water.
But if he didn't do it, he must be framed.
Even if it means turning the world upside down, I will never admit it.
The bigger the matter, the bigger the trouble.
Something like today is like an unprecedented big black pot falling from the sky.
With his character, how could he accept it?
Empress Lu did the same. She stood directly in front of Liu Yu and said, "Commander Ji, before you speak, you might as well think carefully about what you are talking about."
"Yu'er is the prince and the heir apparent!"
"This world and this throne will belong to him sooner or later."
"Why would he do such a thing?"
"This matter must have been framed by someone!"
After saying that, he looked at Qin Jieyu.
Qin Jieyu was so shocked that she almost fell to the ground and said hurriedly: "I don't know, I really don't know anything."
In the conscience of heaven and earth, what she and King Jing discussed was just to frame the prince and bring trouble to the harem!
And on the premise that Princess Huaiqing and Queen Lu came together, she had long given up on this unrealistic idea.
It's good now that he was almost involved in this major case of treason and usurping the throne.
If she doesn't clean it up now, she won't even be able to clean herself after jumping into the Xiang River.
When Ji Ling heard this, he took a step forward, released his martial arts pressure, and said in a deep voice: "This is the order I received."
"And all I have to do is carry out the will!"
"As for the investigation, that is the matter of the Criminal Department!"
After finishing speaking, he walked straight towards Liu Yu, as if he wanted to take someone on the spot.
