The square outside Jinluan Hall.
The ink clouds are low and the breeze is astringent.
The entire square was surrounded by imperial guards, and the middle was full of people kneeling.
Cao Qingyan said that Lu Hancheng was among them.
It's just that everyone's face is pale and bloodless.
At the same time, assassins entered the palace, and the news of the queen's injury was immediately reported. Sun Tingzong and a group of confidants also hurried over.
Sun Tingzong was also greatly surprised when he learned about the beginning of the incident, and at the same time secretly rejoiced.
If it weren't for the protection of His Majesty's imperial aura, I'm afraid the Gale Dynasty would have changed hands tonight.
"Bring the assassin in!"
Li Yi was covered in blood, his face was ashen, he was holding a knife and said coldly.
Hear the words.
Everyone trembled unconsciously and did not dare to respond. Cao Qingyan and Lu Hancheng almost buried their heads in the soil.
Seeing this, Sun Tingzong stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the assassins who entered the palace tonight are all well-trained death warriors. They only captured three alive, two were injured, and the others all committed suicide."
"Death warrior?"
Li Yi's eyes flashed, and he was afraid that this matter was closely related to Ning Wen and others. He just cut off the head and gave Ning Wen a big surprise in the morning.
But I heard Sun Tingzong continue: "Your Majesty, one of them was arrested on purpose, claiming that he was the one who injured the empress."
"What!"
Upon hearing this, Li Yi's pupils turned red, "Where are the people? Bring them here!"
The three assassins were pressed up by the imperial army. In order to prevent the assassins from hurting anyone, they were all tied up with iron chains as thick as their arms.
Li Yi dragged the knife and walked straight in front of the three people. Without opening a word, he chopped off one person's head with the knife and then walked in front of the other person.
The assassin was not afraid and glared at Li Yi with a sneer, "Little emperor, you are lucky tonight, you will not be lucky forever, hahaha."
"Did you hurt my queen?"
The assassin was fierce and fearless, "Yes, if you dare, kill me. I won't say anything."
"good!"
Li Yi suddenly swung his knife and split the other man in half. He held the knife in his backhand and the blade was dripping with blood.
The assassin remained calm-faced, raised his head and shouted, "No need to scare me, I came here tonight with no intention of going back alive. I will die a worthy death for my master!"
Snapped!
The furious Li Yi frowned and slapped his face directly with the knife.
"ah!"
With a scream, his entire face was torn apart.
Everyone around him took a breath of cold air and lowered their heads in fear, not daring to look.
Li Yi had a cold face, frowned, and lightly swung the knife to make a cut on the assassin's face.
"I cut this knife for my queen. How dare you touch my queen!"
Another knife.
"The same goes for this knife. It was you who left the root of my queen's illness. You deserve to die!"
One knife, one knife...
Flesh and blood flew everywhere.
"Ah, ah, ah!"
One knife after another was cut on the assassin's body, causing him to scream and wail in horror.
This scene made everyone present feel horrified.
It’s too scary!
Is this still His Majesty today?
After dozens of cuts, the assassin was already so bloody that he couldn't even be seen as a human being. He looked like a bloody gourd.
At this moment, not only civil servants like Sun Tingzong, but also Cao Qingyan couldn't bear to look at it.
It's so cruel.
But Li Yi still had no intention of stopping. The long knife flew up and down, and each knife left a bone-deep wound on the assassin's body.
But he was terrifyingly calm, just waving the knife silently.
Everyone could see that the calm His Majesty was truly furious.
Just because Ye Qingluan is his forbidden wife, no matter who dares to touch him, he will die!
Everyone present looked at this scene in horror, and were all horrified by Li Yi's ferocity.
Finally, the assassin stopped screaming.
Li Yi cut off the assassin's head with his own hands, threw it in front of everyone, and said coldly: "Send it to Ning Wen's mansion."
Then, he raised his head and saw that his body was covered in blood. At this time, Li Yi seemed to be possessed by a bloodthirsty Shura.
Those red eyes were as terrifying as bloodthirsty beasts. The coldness hit them, leaving no trace of emotion behind. "I will seek justice for my queen tonight. No one who participates can survive!"
Everyone was horrified.
Especially those who were inextricably linked to this matter were so frightened that their faces turned pale and their bodies shook like chaff.
"you!"
"Who can explain to me how the assassin entered the palace without anyone noticing?" Li Yi's voice was cold and his eyes scanned the crowd.
When no one spoke, he directly called out his name, "Lu Hancheng, Mr. Lu, you say it!"
When he heard his name, Lu Hancheng couldn't help but tremble, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I don't know."
"I don't know, so many assassins have infiltrated, and if you tell me you don't know, you, the Forbidden Army general, are eating shit!" Li Yi cursed angrily.
boom!
With one kick, Lu Hancheng was kicked seven or eight steps away. Lu Hancheng got up after being kicked, and continued to kowtow, crying, "I am guilty, I am incompetent, I did not guard the palace well, I caused a tragic disaster, I deserve to die, I deserve to die!"
"But I swear to God, I have nothing to do with these assassins!"
Li Yi was so angry that he kicked Lu Hancheng hard several times. His eyes turned and fell on Cao Qingyan, "Master Cao, tell me!"
"The Forbidden Army is a bunch of blind people. You, the internal machine supervisor who guards the inner and outer courtyards of the palace, are also blind!"
Cao Qingyan's body suddenly became colder, and he trembled: "Your Majesty, I found out that I entered through the west gate of the imperial city, and avoided the eyes of our internal machine supervisor along the way."
"So, there is a mole?"
Li Yi's eyes flickered, and his heart was filled with murderous intent. However, he also knew that Lu Hancheng and Cao Qingyan were his confidants, and they were determined not to surrender to foreign enemies, especially Cao Qingyan. Without him, he would be torn apart by the family in an instant.
"Who is responsible for the west gate?"
Everyone trembled and looked back in unison, their eyes pointed directly at a Forbidden Army general Xu Ajiang wearing golden armor. This man's face was full of panic and cold sweat broke out.
Aware of everyone's gaze, he knelt and crawled to Li Yi's feet, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I don't know. I have been personally guarding the west gate tonight. I have never left half a step. I haven't noticed any movement, let alone an assassin sneaking in. I really don’t know.”
Li Yi turned back to look at Cao Qingyan. He was always fair in doing things and would never wrong anyone, especially his own confidants.
Cao Qingyan did not dare to hesitate and quickly explained: "Your Majesty, this person is lying!"
"The old slave has arranged for the internal machine supervisor to go and find out. Tonight, this person was suddenly transferred from the west gate garrison. It will take half a stick of incense."
Xu Ajiang looked panicked and broke into a cold sweat.
How could such a guilty-minded act be concealed from Li Yi? He immediately kicked Xu Ajiang under his feet, "Tell me, why did you suddenly mobilize troops? Who gave you the right to mobilize troops?"
"I...it's not...it's because the palace was leaked, I took people to see it." Xu Ajiang was talking nonsense, trying to get through.
"fart!"
"It's raining heavily tonight, so it's raining water!"
Li Yi pulled out Lu Hancheng's waist knife with his backhand and slashed it directly.
"ah!"
The knife hit Xu Ajiang's shoulder, and blood gushed out.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not me, it's really not me!"
"How did I know they entered through the west gate when they were young? It really wasn't me!"
Li Yi's eyes turned cold, "Who told you that these assassins entered the palace during Zishi!"
"Eat the shit out of you!"
Li Yi hit Xu Ajiang's arm with another knife, almost cutting off his arm.
"Ah, your majesty, spare your life, your majesty, please spare your life, I have no choice but to do so, I have no choice..." Xu Ajiang screamed and rolled on the ground begging for mercy.
Everyone around them retreated in fear.
Li Yi stepped on his chest and said coldly: "Tell me, who is instructing you!"
"ah!"
"Your Majesty, I say, I say, please spare me, spare my life!" Xu Ajiang begged for mercy in pain, just asking for his life.
Although they all guessed who was behind it, everyone was still worried when they were about to hear that person's name.
If it was really that person, the Gale Dynasty might completely collapse.
"Tell me who it is!" Li Yi was furious, pressing the long knife in his hand against his neck, his teeth clenching.
He groaned in pain and his lips trembled, "Yes... it's Yan..."
But before he could finish the person's name, a figure suddenly jumped out and stabbed Li Yi at an extremely fast speed.
No one reacted to the sudden move.
"Your Majesty, be careful!" Cao Qingyan became violent and pulled Li Yi behind him.
"No, he wants to silence him, stop him!" Li Yi yelled.
