The emperor asked again: "Who is that person?"
The assassin shook his head and said: "I don't know. I just know that she is a woman. Her voice sounds like she is a bit older. She is wearing a cloak and her face cannot be seen clearly."
"Clang"......
Suddenly, the tea cup in the Queen Mother's hand fell to the ground, causing everyone to look at her.
Seeing that the Queen Mother looked pale, the Emperor quickly asked with concern: "Queen Mother, what's wrong with you?"
"The Ai family is fine. Maybe it's because I'm too old to stay up late, so I wasn't sure for a while."
"The assassin has been captured. I have ordered people to help you return to the palace to rest." The emperor expressed concern.
The Queen Mother nodded and didn't want to leave, but she was afraid that the assassin would identify Aunt Gui.
The emperor glanced around and said, "Why isn't Aunt Gui there? Why don't you go and ask her to help the Queen Mother back to the palace?"
At this time, I saw Aunt Ren limping in, supporting Aunt Gui by chance.
Seeing the embarrassment of Aunt Gui, the Emperor scolded: "Aunt Gui, if you don't stay with the Queen Mother, where did you go?"
Aunt Gui didn't notice anything unusual in the palace. She only felt pain in her lower back and her hands and feet were frozen and stiff. When the emperor shouted, she lost her direction: "Report to the emperor, I just twisted my foot. I'm here right now." Serve the Queen Mother."
Aunt Ren also quickly said: "To report to the Queen Mother, when I found Aunt Gui in the West Palace, Aunt Gui fell on her leg."
Suddenly, everyone turned their attention to Nanny Gui and Nishigong. What was Nanny Gui going to Nishigong for? These assassins were also caught in Nishinomiya.
Could it be that Aunt Gui was looking for an assassin? Who was she going to assassinate?
Before everyone could think through the questions in their minds, one of the assassins suddenly said: "I recognize this voice. It's her. She was the one who found us. She asked us to assassinate someone."
Of course, the assassins did not want to be charged with murdering the emperor. This was a serious crime of decapitation. This was originally a very easy business, and there was also an insider. I heard that the insider would stun the person they wanted to assassinate, and they would just kill people.
Unexpectedly, he was caught before he saw anyone.
The assassin was pointing in the direction of Aunt Ren and Aunt Gui.
Aunt Ren was supporting Aunt Gui, but suddenly she looked extremely shocked. She felt like the sky was about to fall. She quickly knelt on the ground and shouted loudly: "I don't know anything. I didn't conspire with the assassins." Prince Nangong, this servant really doesn’t know anything. Every injustice has its own owner, so you go find the person who killed you."
As soon as Aunt Ren shouted, everyone knew that the person these killers wanted to assassinate was Nangong Yuanyi.
Nangong Heng became uneasy after hearing this. He kicked Nanny Ren on the body: "Slave dog, you just said, who do you want to murder? Are you trying to murder Nangong Yuanyi?"
Aunt Ren stared at Nangong Heng dumbfounded. In order to let An Xiyue detoxify her, she tried her best to act, "Ah, did I say that? I didn't say anything..."
At this time, Aunt Ren only looked at the relationship between Aunt Gui and the Queen Mother...
If he looks evasive, there is something wrong with him.
The other assassin then pointed at Aunt Gui and said, "It's her, she asked us to come."
Suddenly, Nangong Heng turned his attention to Aunt Gui again. Who in the palace didn't know that Aunt Gui was a confidant of the Queen Mother, which meant that the Queen Mother wanted to kill Nangong Yuanyi.
Only Mei Shuqing and the prince, who knew the inside story, remained calm, while the others all focused on the queen mother.
A faint smile appeared on Concubine Su's lips. Now was a good time to suppress the Queen Mother, "How could you have wronged Aunt Gui? How could it be Aunt Gui? If you dare to talk nonsense again, be careful of the Emperor moving your heads."
