Nangong Heng added: "The last time we defeated the Sirius Kingdom and went straight to the Sirius Kingdom's palace, cousin Yuan Yi first secretly captured their prince, and then led troops to break into the Sirius Kingdom's palace before annihilating them in one fell swoop. At that time, Konggu Pass was invaded by the Tianlang Kingdom, and the people of Ronggu Pass were in fear every day. If it weren’t for cousin Yuan Yi, would we in the Northern Dynasty be able to destroy the Tianlang Kingdom so quickly and with the least number of casualties?”
"Actually, all the credit for that time is his. I just benefited from him." At that time, he just went to the tavern and visited the flower house. How could he know how to fight?
People in Kyoto didn't know, but General Zhou who guarded Konggu Pass knew it very well. Nangong Heng said again: "If you don't believe it, ask the soldiers at Konggu Pass and General Zhou. They know the whole thing best."
The queen was so angry that her nose was crooked. What could her silly son say after taking so long? It seemed that her son was completely out of favor in the emperor's heart.
Concubine Su did not expect that the King of Chu was so stupid. When the rewards were awarded, the King of Chu received many rewards, but Nangong Yuanyi received nothing.
The emperor looked at the Queen Mother with a troubled face and said, "Queen Mother, please see how this matter is handled. Yuan Yi has indeed made a contribution." The Emperor only hoped that the Queen Mother would not think of assassinating Nangong Yuan Yi again.
The Queen Mother's eyes were slightly cold, and she naturally understood what the Emperor meant. The Emperor wanted her to recognize Nangong Yuanyi's identity.
The Queen Mother said calmly: "Since he has meritorious service, he will be rewarded with some gold and silver." It means that he will be given away money and his identity cannot be recognized.
The prince also stood up and said respectfully: "Father, now that the matter has been made clear, the turmoil in Kyoto is all caused by the Cangyi Kingdom's deliberate provocation against our country. I also want the assassin in the palace to pay an audience and ask clearly. We should do it early." Intend."
"My son thinks that now is not the time to award a reward."
The emperor nodded and said, "The prince's words make sense."
Immediately, eight assassins who were tied up were brought into the palace.
The prince pulled out the cloth from the mouth of one of the assassins and said in a cold voice: "Who do you belong to, how did you enter the palace, the purpose of entering the palace, and who do you want to assassinate? Tell them all honestly and clearly, in front of the Holy One." In front of you, you'd better tell the truth, if you are plotting to kill the emperor, this is a serious crime that will destroy the nine tribes."
The prince used the emperor to scare the assassins, hoping that they would tell the truth.
The assassin was so frightened that his face turned blue and his body began to tremble.
"Your Majesty, spare your life, Your Majesty, please spare your life. This villain didn't want to assassinate the Emperor. Someone paid us a high price and took us into the palace secretly, saying that he wanted to assassinate a thief who broke into the palace."
The Queen Mother was so frightened that her hands and feet were trembling, and her heart was no longer calm. Didn't these people leave the palace after killing Nangong Yuanyi?
Fortunately, she had already told Aunt Gui not to reveal her identity.
The emperor also narrowed his eyes slightly: "Who to assassinate?"
"I don't know, I just know that the man said that he would sneak in while the palace was holding a banquet and designate a place for us. He also said that when the time comes, someone will naturally appear in front of them with the person they want to assassinate. When the time comes, as long as Just kill him."
When the Queen Mother heard this, she felt dizzy and almost fainted.
The prince looked at this scene coldly and said nothing.
The person they wanted to kill was naturally Nangong Yuanyi, and they also asked An Xiyue to take him to the designated place in person.
An Xiyue's days in the palace were really wonderful. Not only did he coax the Queen Mother into a circle, but she also made him a target. If An Xiyue was really willing to follow him, he would be happy, but it's a pity that all this It's all just a game.
