"His Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, you can't!"
By the time everyone reacted, Yan Xiu had already rushed into the silver cage. The fire was so intense that it was impossible to see what was going on inside. But even if Yan Xiu was born with great speed and succeeded in rescuing the demon concubine, he would be completely different even if he didn't die.
Yan Xiu is completely crazy! For a woman, you can even risk your life!
The old minister was so frightened that his blood surged and he fainted on the spot. However, the armored guards who followed Yan Xiu were still orderly and quickly surrounded all the exits of the imperial city.
Fu Zhu led a large number of officials from Dali Temple and came over. He pointed at the chaotic crowd on the altar and said, "Quickly arrest these evil demons and keep them alive."
The Qingjing Sanren group had nowhere to escape. In less than a few seconds, they were restrained by the officials of Dali Temple and forced to kneel on the ground.
People were busy shouting for help, people were trying to rush into the fire to save people, people were running for their lives, people were peeing, and people were running around like headless chickens. There were all kinds of things, all ugly and chaotic. The palace had never been so noisy. .
"It's so noisy."
Yan Xiu slowly walked out of the silver cage holding Zhu Sijia.
The surroundings fell silent for a moment, except for the faint sound of green wildfire burning behind them.
"His Majesty!"
"Your Majesty——!"
Then there was another sound of people falling to their knees.
Yan Xiu put Zhu Sijia down, waited for her to stand firm, and linked his fingers with hers, standing side by side, looking at everything with cold eyebrows, like a ruthless true god looking down on all living beings:
"I'm not afraid of wildfire either. May I ask all my dear friends, what kind of monster am I?"
Those with discerning eyes have already taken the opportunity to flatter him: "Your Majesty is the only true dragon in this world. I think that I can witness the miracle in person because of my ancestors' good deeds."
Yan Xiu: "Well, it can barely be heard. I'll leave your body intact."
Lu Hong couldn't believe his eyes. How could it be possible...how could someone come out of the fire unharmed?
Could it be that what happened today was really a carefully planned game as Du Xian said? The mantis stalks the cicada, but the oriole is behind, and Yan Xiu is the oriole! All of them are just spectators witnessing this scene.
Zhu Siyi had a premonition that something bad was going to happen, so she immediately pretended to faint and was tiptoed away by the nuns of Weiyang Palace.
Lu Hong's face hurt, as if he had been slapped several times by Yan Xiu out of thin air, and he was so ashamed that he couldn't say anything.
Yan Xiu ordered people to bring in several tables, chairs, heaters and cloak stoves, and tied Zhu Sijia's cloak with his own hands.
The wildfire behind him was still making a whirring sound on the blessing of the north wind, which was very scary, but he, Zhu Sijia, Fu Zhu and others were sitting in the open space in front of the silver cage nonchalantly, looking down at everything under the altar. .
"All the dear friends here today are so clear-cut in their love and hate and love to join in the fun. It's a pity that my treasury is so tight that I can't even take out half an extra hand stove, so I have to sit down on the floor."
Yan Xiu had a smile on his lips and a cold light in his eyes, not caring at all about the life and death of his ministers.
The ministers knew that what happened today was the same as that of the palace. Yan Xiu was willing to leave their corpses intact. Now he just let them kneel on the frost-covered white marble floor, which showed his compassion.
Naturally, one can only bite the bullet and accept the reward.
Fu Zhu looked at Qingjing Sanren: "Recruit the people behind the scenes and leave you alone - Your Majesty, be careful!"
"Tyrant! Take your life!"
Wang Wei didn't know when she tried her best to break free from the shackles of the government officials, and stabbed Yan Xiu in the back with a soft retractable sword.
Yan Xiu's first reaction was to reach out to protect Scarlett. Wang Wei's swordsmanship was fierce, and Yan Xiu's movements were almost invisible, but her right arm was still scratched by the tip of her sword. Fortunately, the wound was not deep, just like a mosquito bite.
Just as Wang Wei was about to get closer to him, Fu Zhu grabbed her wrist and twisted it hard, breaking her wrist bones.
The person was brought to Yan Xiu, and Zhu Sijia recognized at a glance that this was the woman who poured the underworld water on her body.
Yan Xiu stretched out his leg in disgust, and his long boots raised Wang Wei's chin hard, forcing her to look up at him: "Interesting, I thought I was the oriole, but I didn't expect to have such a hand."
The ministers were dizzy and confused by today's events, but they could only continue to kneel peacefully.
Fu Zhu quickly cut off Wang Wei's hand and leg tendons to ensure that she could no longer hurt anyone.
Zhu Sijia hurriedly pulled Yan Xiu's collar, trying to check his injuries, but he grabbed her hand and whispered, "It's okay, we'll see if it's too late to go back to the palace."
Yan Xiu: "Who directed what happened today?"
It seems that both he and Fu Zhu's previous guesses were wrong. This matter was not a harem fight, but a long-planned assassination.
Wang Wei stared at him angrily without saying a word.
Her eyebrows and eyes were similar to Zhu Sisheng's, and her expression when angry was more similar. Yan Xiu averted his eyes, retracted his foot, and let Wang Wei's chin hit the ground.
Fu Zhu: "If you don't say anything, Dali Temple has plenty of ways to make you speak."
Wang Wei looked up and laughed: "Hahahaha... Hunjun, when you killed my father and brother that day, did you think about today?"
Yan Xiu: "I have killed as many as 80,000 people, if not 100,000. I can't even remember who your father and brother are."
Wang Wei coughed up blood: "Really? Our Emperor of Qin is really a cold-hearted monster. It is reasonable to treat ordinary people like us like mayflies and ants. Today, my skills are inferior to others. I have to kill or scrape as I please." "
"Just before I die, I want to sing a good show for you. It is "Surrounding Wei and Rescue Zhao" that our Wang family is best at. On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, on the night of the Yuan Dynasty, you were making trouble in Xijing. I heard that you were satisfied, Wei, Your Majesty! Look carefully, my eyes are very similar to yours."
It turns out that she is from the Wang family class! But at the beginning, not everyone in the Wang family class was left alive, so how could such a fish slip through the net?
In the past year, no one dared to mention half of the word "Wei" in front of Yan Xiu.
Yan Xiu: "Fu Zhu, gouge out her eyes."
Just as Fu Zhugang was about to step forward, Zhu Sijia stopped him: "Master Fu, wait a minute. If you start rashly, before you can find out the ins and outs of why this Wang daughter entered the palace and caused trouble, will you have to pay for it?"
She already knew the person behind Wang Wei, but she couldn't say a word. If the matter was concluded with assassination and the coffin was hastily sealed, Yan Xing would be able to escape.
Yan Xiu chuckled and hugged her: "Okay, I wish Zhaoyi a good heart, and I will be as beautiful as an adult."
Fu Zhu: "If Miss Wang still wants to suffer unnecessary pain, she can continue to provoke His Majesty."
Wang Wei sneered: "Daughters of the people have long heard that Mr. Fu, the young minister of Dali Temple, inherited the mantle of his father, and even excelled in solving cases. Today I have learned the lesson. I am ashamed to lose in your hands."
She asked back: "The civilian girl thinks that this assassination plan is almost seamless. At what point did you start to see through it?"
Fu Zhu: "There is no airtight wall in the world. Your plan was indeed flawless. You calculated every step of the way at the right time. You even did not hesitate to alert the Queen Mother and other civil and military officials to bear witness for you. It's a pity that from beginning to end, you ignored a crucial point. Important person."
"You have been in the palace for so long, but you haven't asked about the personal bodyguard beside the empress, Suiyu?"
