girl, you're wrong

Chapter 618 Assassination
"Why does mother trust Jinyang so much all of a sudden?" Nankang asked in surprise, "Should he be urgently recruited into Jiankang to stabilize order?"

"One is because the gentry have persecuted too much this time, and the other is because after the death of my uncle, there is really no one around." Lu Ling said with a sigh, "After all, he is your husband, and he is also half of my family. Mother doesn't believe in heavy This son-in-law, who else can I rely on?"

"Indeed." Nankang thought for a moment, but did not continue to ask.

Of course, she was not completely ignorant of Cheng Jinyang and the shogunate's follow-up plans.

It's just that the Great Jin Empire has come to this point, and the Sima family's rule has long since faded away. She still doesn't want to force her husband to forcibly renew her younger brother's political status.

Anyway, my younger brother doesn't want to be emperor, and staying in that position will only bring more danger.

In any case, fortunately, Jinyang is here, at least he can protect his mother and younger brother...

Just as the two were thinking this way, they suddenly received an alarm from the palace.

Someone assassinated the queen mother!

Nankang and Luling were shocked when they heard the words, and rushed to Taicheng, where they saw a large group of Jiankang college students gathered around the Xuanwu Gate, some pulling banners, some holding slogans, and some shouting slogans, demanding that the court Withdraw the conferment and posthumous posthumous title given to Yu Yuangui.

"I'm going to disperse them!" Luling immediately planned to attack, but was stopped by his sister, "No need, these are just pawns to deceive people, the key is still in the palace!"

The two rushed into Miyagi, and saw that there were more than three times the number of guards blocking and patrolling around.

Many courtiers stood anxiously outside the main entrance, but were stopped by a large number of Jin Yiwei, and only a few important cabinet ministers were able to enter.

The two sisters immediately turned to the side door, passed through the tight guard of the guards, and soon came to the palace where Empress Dowager Yu lived.

Seeing Empress Dowager Yu sitting on the chair in good condition, Yu Shuyu and several cabinet ministers standing beside her, with undisguised annoyance on their faces, Nankang Luling finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, they soon noticed that almost all the courtiers present were celebrities from commoner backgrounds, while none of the courtiers from noble families with five surnames or famous families stood here.

Nankang was keenly aware immediately that the conflict between the queen mother and the gentry had been intensified to the surface.

"What's the matter?" She came to the queen mother and asked with concern.

"The murderer was a maid who ran away after a hasty assassination failed." Yu Shuyu replied, "He has been shot dead in the backyard. It is not sure if there are any accomplices. People from Jinyiwei are still under martial law to investigate."

"What about the murderer's identity and relationship?"

"People from Kuaiji, born as a commoner, worked in the palace for almost 16 years." Yu Shuyu continued, "both parents died, only one uncle, and he passed away three years ago."

"Social relations are handled very cleanly." Lu Ling sneered, "If I'm not mistaken, her so-called parents and uncle are all fake relatives."

"We will investigate this." Uncle Yu said with a sigh.

"In any case, it's the greatest blessing that my mother is fine." Princess Nankang noticed that her mother's complexion was extremely pale. There was both disbelief and anger that she was almost assassinated, and the shock and fear of the rest of her life, " It's just the cabinet ministers outside..."

"No see!" Empress Dowager Yu said immediately, "Let them go home!"

"Your Majesty is assassinated. If you don't see your courtiers, I'm afraid they won't give up." A cabinet minister said aloud.

The reason is also very simple: the queen mother was assassinated, but only a few courtiers were seen, and no foreign ministers were seen.The foreign ministers must be worried that the queen mother has suffered a tragic accident, and the news of her death was concealed by these ministers in order to plot something wrong.

"Then start a video conference!" Empress Dowager Yu said angrily.

Crowd: ………………

Now that the video is on, what's the difference from going out to meet?
But the Queen Mother is the Queen Mother after all, and everyone can only tolerate a little bit of arrogance and temper.

So I hurried over to find a technician and prepared to hold a video conference.

As soon as the cabinet ministers left, Empress Dowager Yu immediately grabbed her daughter's hand and said anxiously:

"When will the son-in-law come?"

"Already on the way." Nankang patted his mother's hand and said comfortingly.

In fact, if you are really in a hurry, you can just let Ye Ru bring it over.

It's just that it's hard to explain Ye Ru's existence, so Cheng Jinyang just brought some elite guards from Beifu and rushed over from Jingkou by boat.

The two sisters accompanied their mother for a long time before coaxing Empress Dowager Yu to take a nap.

Then he turned to his brother.

When he came to the imperial study room, he realized that the little emperor was so frightened that he locked himself in the room, and the maids refused to open the door no matter who asked.

"Ayan!" Nankang knocked on the door outside, "Open the door quickly, I am your elder sister!"

"No!" The little emperor shivered inside, "How can you prove that you are not an assassin!"

"Can't you hear my voice?" The princess sister couldn't help but laugh.

"Maybe the assassin used a voice changer!" The little emperor shouted, "Unless we make a video!"

Luling: ……………

The mother and son were exactly the same.

Impatiently, she stepped forward, kicked open the door of the imperial study, and then brought out the little emperor inside.

"It's really two elder sisters!" The little emperor embraced Nankang Luling and cried, "When will brother-in-law come!"

"Whose brother-in-law are you talking about?" Lu Ling immediately blushed, "That's your elder sister's brother-in-law!"

"I was talking about the elder sister's brother-in-law." The little emperor said in astonishment.

"Cough, cough, cough." Luling coughed, and cast a hinting look at Nankang.

So the princess sister comforted him and said:
"He has led his troops up the river, and he will reach Jiankang today."

"It's so good, it's so good." The little emperor murmured, "I heard that the Beifu Army is a special force in the army, and they can hit twenty with their bare hands. Brother-in-law relied on them to fight in the north and south, and broke through Chengdu in half a month. In Sichuan and Sichuan... with my brother-in-law's Beifu Army, Jiankang will definitely be safe this time."

"What is twenty for one dozen?" Luling sneered beside him, "No matter how elite the Beifu army is, they are ordinary people, how could it be possible to hit twenty for one? It's not bad to be able to do one for two. But your brother-in-law is already a second-rank now, don't worry." It’s not a big deal to destroy a city with one hand.”

"Really?" The little emperor immediately became excited, "The highest of the five surnames is only the third grade. Could it be that brother-in-law is stronger than them?"

"That is." Nankang said reservedly, "In short, your brother-in-law will come soon, so don't be too frightened, so as not to worry your mother."

"Okay, okay." The little emperor called the maid, and wanted to go back to the bedroom and change clothes again.

When he heard that his mother was assassinated in the palace earlier, he thought it was someone from the gentry who came in. He was so frightened that his whole body was covered in cold sweat, which was already sticky.

Cheng Jinyang took the elite troops, and soon arrived at the north bank of Jiankang by riverboat, and rushed through the Xuanwu District to Taicheng.

He was also taken aback when he heard that Empress Dowager Yu had been assassinated.

You know, if Empress Dowager Yu and the little emperor die suddenly, the future of the empire's government will completely turn to the unknown and chaotic realm... Fortunately, it was just a false alarm.

No matter which aristocratic family envoy is behind it, it is estimated that they are only trying to intimidate the queen mother and muddy the water, not really trying to disrupt the current situation.

He led troops to the Xuanwu Gate. When the large crowd that had blocked the gate saw the army, they immediately dispersed without stopping, and banners and slogans were thrown everywhere.

Who are these people...?
