Chapter 128 Assassination

............

Late night, Minwen returned to the royal palace and finally put Zhou Xiaoqing's girl to sleep. He also rushed to the study. There was a very difficult case to deal with, but when he heard that someone from the palace said that Zhou Xiaoqing was not in a good mood, he put down the case at hand and rushed to the palace courtyard.

Opening the case file, the interrogation of Lord Weng in the past few days is still some eyebrows. Although Lord Weng is covering up His Royal Highness Mu Jie and the Third Prince and others in his words, it can still be deduced that Mu Jie's relationship with this Lord Weng is not an ordinary colleague. Lord Weng has been unscrupulously and has Mu Jie's support behind him. If he can take this opportunity to pull Mu Jie down his horse. That's all right.

Looking at the results that have been studied for several days, Min Wen intends to choose a day to calculate some illegal deeds that Qing Mu Jie has done without the emperor for so many years.

............

Today is the three-year sacrificial hall of the State Day. On this day, all officials above the second grade and the children of the royal family will follow the emperor to attend this major event. It aims to pray that the weather will be smooth in the coming year, that the people will live and work in peace, and the border will be safe.

This is a very old site. Since the existence of the Day Kingdom, this place has been a place dedicated to gods and ancestors. It is usually a place guarded by heavy troops and will not let people in casually, so as not disturb the tranquility of the gods. However, by this day, the silence of the past is gone. Instead, it is lively. The solemn music sounded, and there was such a majestic voice over the whole country, and the people looked at the side of the imperial city.

The emperor has fasted and bathed a month ago and prepared a pious heart to worship his ancestors. In today's ceremony, the emperor's dress is much more solemn than usual. The golden dragon pattern robe, the crown on his head, and the straight high boots under his feet have become indispensable costumes for the memorial ceremony. The emperor looked solemn. They all have the same expression as the cultural relics officials behind.

Zhou Xiaoqing is not a little girl now. Although she is qualified to watch this huge and grand show, she is only not qualified to go together. However, even if Zhou Xiaoqing is given this opportunity, Zhou Xiaoqing may not be willing. Anyway, it is boring. She is still quite tired as above, unlike the one below. Freedom - freedom? In fact, it can't be said that even the females are still relatively well-behaved and don't talk casually. The so-called lively is that the music is very loud, but there is still no human voice.

After about half an hour, a person read something like sacrificial literature on it. Anyway, it was ancient Chinese, and Zhou Xiaoqing didn't quite understand it. So the soul is out of the body.

After a period of time, it will be opened to the people. At that time, the people will come in, but you can see the dragon face of the emperor at close range. This is to prepare to have fun with the people. This poses a problem for those brocade guards, which can not hurt the people, but also prevents them from getting too close to the emperor and those big officials.

It didn't take long for Zhou Xiaoqing to hear a sound of **. The ladies next to her disliked that the people looked strange like local steamed buns, which was too noisy, but Zhou Xiaoqing didn't think so. She always felt that there were more people or a little lively. Isn't it good for everyone to be together? Therefore, this will make Zhou Xiaoqing feel a little better. Looking at all kinds of people can also relieve her heavy mood in recent days.

"Your Majesty! Emperor!!" Although it is a place where Beijing Normal University and senior officials gather, there are still a lot of civilians, so the people below shout excitedly, " long live the emperor!" After hearing this, the emperor changed his very serious face just now, that is, his usual gentle expression, and greeted the people below.

I have seen the popularity of Min Wen when he was in the capital before, but now he is still a little witch compared with the emperor. Zhou Xiaoqing looked at this scene and felt really shocked. No wonder China's feudal system can exist for so many years, isn't it that the people all idolize the emperor? He is willing to be ruled, and such a good emperor is still worthy of admiration.

But at this time, the sharp-eyed Zhou Xiaoqing found a dark shadow suddenly coming out of the crowd and ran straight to the emperor, "It's not good!!!" Zhou Xiaoqing was shocked. Someone is going to assassinate the emperor.

This person's movement speed is so fast that almost even the brocade guards don't realize it. After all, it takes some energy to stop those people. No matter how high a person's martial arts skills are, it is always difficult to defeat thousands of troops.

Yunfan and Mu Jie's hands and feet are faster. After some useless officials retreated, Yun Fan and Mu Jie made a few moves with the man in black. The man in black can have the courage to assassinate, that is, there are a few brushes. Therefore, even if Yun Fan's two masters, Mu Jie, are still not injured and can resist. After a few moves, Yun Fan and Mu Jie exchanged eyes after fighting for a while. This person's lower plate is very powerful, and the moves in his hand are not as good as those on his legs, so one person restrains his legs, and the other focuses on his upper body. Yun Fan and Mu Jie have a more and more tacit understanding, especially Yun Fan, who always fights more and harder. The man in black Relaxed, Yun Fan pressed him step by step and completely forced him to the end of the road. Finally, Mu Jie's knife cut the arm of the man in black, and the blood could not stop flowing outside for a moment. The man in black held his injured arm in one hand and suddenly threw something in the other. It could not be a lucky gun. Zhou Xiaoqing thought that he was probably the legendary martial arts man. The hidden weapon used by the taxi. He thought that he would throw it inaccurately after being injured, but God has always joked with people recently. Those invisible things shot directly on the emperor's chest. The emperor immediately fainted. Mu Jie saw this for a moment, but he decisively cut off the right arm of the man in black, a bloody The wet arm fell to the ground, which made the people around shout out loud. Who would have thought that such a happy day would happen?

Yun Fan clapped his hand at the knee of the man in black, and the man knelt directly on the ground. His arm must have hurt and he could no longer hold the sword in his hand. Grandpa Wan shouted for rescue, and the emperor was sent directly into the palace. For a moment, he was in chaos, and the third prince quickly came out to support the overall situation.

"Don't panic, let's catch this assassin first!" Mu Jie picked out the cloth on the face of the man in black with his sword. The assassin's face did not have a trace of popularity because of too much blood loss. It is estimated that only the breath did not enter the air. Zhou Xiaoqing was very puzzled. How could this seemingly normal person do such a stupid thing and even want to assassinate the emperor in full view of the public, although Kung Fu is okay, but it's too unconsidered. Besides, today's emperor is not as mediocre and pathless as King Zhou. Why should he do this to make people dissatisfied all over the world?

He can't see what kind of expression is in the eyes of the man in black, but it's just a little dull. He should know that even if he kills the emperor, he can't retreat completely. Suddenly, the expression on the face of the man in black was very painful. Yun Fan quickly clicked on the man in black when he saw this scene, and the man in black suddenly fell asleep.

A group of brocade guards ran to the man in black, squatted down, reached out and groped for the man in black. Suddenly, one person took out a waist card, changed his look, and immediately handed it to the third prince.

The third prince shouted, "King Jing, you are so bold that you sent people to assassinate the emperor! At least the emperor doesn't treat you well on weekdays!"

Min Wen was stunned at first when he heard this. When he sent someone to assassinate the emperor, even if he really wanted to be a traitor, he would not be stupid in broad daylight and do such a stupid thing when everyone could see it!

"Uncle Three, please figure out how this can be a person sent by me. If there is no evidence, don't deduct the charges!" Min Wen knew that this was not a small matter.

The third prince handed over the token found on the assassin to Min Wen. Min Wen was immediately dumbfounded. This is indeed a token that can only be found in Jingwang's mansion, but this person really doesn't know that there are so many servants in Jingwang's mansion. It's impossible to know them one by one. It's not very clear what he has done, but the third prince is so There is nothing unreasonable and nothing to say. The clear self-clear!

"The third prince, according to me, this matter is still strange. King Jing will not be foolish enough to assassinate the emperor in front of everyone. I think someone deliberately blames him." Lord Shulin, the minister of the Ministry of Ceremonies, came forward and said that he knew more clearly that he would not do such things.

Xu Feng came forward and said, "Lord Lin, you can't say that. I remember that Lord Weng didn't say that His Royal Highness Mu Jie was the staple food behind his back last time. You said that if you have any doubts, you should investigate it thoroughly. Now the emperor's safety is not known yet. At present, this is the only clue. How can you not investigate it because it is King Jing? With so many people watching, aren't we going to do something? Now in terms of qualifications, that is, the Third Prince and Prince Xiaoyao can preside over the overall situation. Lord Lin, don't say more.

When Xu Feng said this, Lord Lin can't say anything. Anyway, this matter has absolutely nothing to do with Min Wen. Check it out. Can they still reverse black and white under so many pairs of eyes?

Minwen was very calm on it, but he was anxious about Zhou Xiaoqing. There was no excuse for this crime. The emperor's life and death are unknown. Now they are like this to Minwen. If there is really something wrong, isn't it forcing him to a dead end?

"Okay, I'll go with you." Min Wen didn't seem to show any panic. Maybe he had a countermeasure in his heart and decided to be interrogated with them.

Zhou Xiaoqing rushed up in an instant, "You can't take King Jing away!" Zhou Xiaoqing stopped them and did not allow them to take Min Wen away.

Min Wen came forward and held Zhou Xiaoqing's hand. "Don't worry, I will be fine. Go back to the palace and take good care of the emperor."
